PUTS A SPANIARD IN THE
HOSPITAL.

BOISE, CITY, Aug. mike Foley,
who was working on the government
ditch about three miles this side of
Nampa, met with a severe accident
Sunday afternoon about o'clock. Mr.
Foley had attached the fuse to some
dynamite prior to blasting a hole for
the extension of the ditch. The fuse
proved to be too short and there was
not time enough for him to get away
before the explosion occurred.
The premature explosion of the blast
completely shattered Mr.. Foley's left
arm and hand and filled his face full
of powder, both eyes being badly in
jured.
The accident happening just before
the train from the east went by on it's
way to Boise, it was tagged and the
injured man put aboard and taken to
the city, where he was met by the
st. Alphonsus ambulance and taken to
that hospital.

SKIN ECZEMA

Black SpIotches All Over Face -
Produced Severe Itching-Year's
Treatment by Physicians Did No

Affected Parts Now Clear as Ever
Alabama Lady's
CURE BY THE
CUTICURA REMEDIES

"About four years ago I was afflicted
with black splotches all over my face
and few covering my body, which
produced severe itching irritation, and
which caused me great deal of annoy
ance and suffering, to such an extent that
was forced to call in two of the leading
physicians of my town. After thor
ough examination of the dreaded COM
plant they announced it to be skin
eczema in it's worst form. They treated
me for the same for the length of one
year, but the treatment did me no good.
" Finally became Respondent and
decided to discontinue their services.
Shortly afterwards, my husband in read
ing copy of a weekly New York
paper saw an advertisement of the Cuti-
cura Remedies. He purchased the en-
tire outfit, and after using the contents
of the first bottle of Cuticura Resolvent
in connection with the Cuticura Soap
and Ointment, the breaking out entirely
stopped. I continued the use of the
Cuticura Remedies for six months, and
after that every splotch was entirely
gone and the affected parts were left as
clear as ever. have not felt symp-
tom of the eczema since, which was three
years ago.
"The Cuticura Remedies not only
cured me of that dreadful disease,
eczema, but other complicated troubles
as well; and have been the means of
others being cured of the same disease
by the Cuticura Remedies, and l don't

is the best blood medicine that the world
has ever known" Lizzie E. Sledge,

IDAHO ELK DYING OF NANCE
Game Warden Harbaush Says .
Half Dozen Have Died Near
Selway.

LEWISTON, Aug 7.-Game Warden
Harbaugh confirms the story that the
elk on the upper Clearwater are dying
of the mango or some kindred disease.
He has just returned from a trip to
the Selway where he went to investi-
gate the report that elk had been
killed there out of season. He found
that a half dozen or more had died in
that vicinity and that the cause of
their death was the above described
disease. Citizens of that section say
that whole herds are affected and that
many will not live through the sum-

BOISE CITY, Aug. There is at
present time only about 40 per cent
enough water in the Boise river to
supply the various canals that are fed
fro mthat stream, according to the
water decree signed by Judge Stewart
of the district court last winter. The
various water rights recognized by the
decision rendered in the famous Boise
valley water case aggregate 2755 cubic
feet per second, and on August ?, &C
cording to the statement of ]. H. Lo-
well. of Caldwell, watermaster for this
district, who is in the city, there was
ONLY 100 feet of water flowing in the
river.
The water began falling some time
ago. On July 10, two weeks ago
measurements showed there was but
1000 feet of water in the river, or 755
less than called for by the water de-
cree, and this amount has gradually
fallen to ITO feet the present week.
Under the terms of the irrigation
law of the state, when the water rights
are decreed by a district court, the
prior rights are entitled to receive q
full amount of water, so long as it is
in the stream, while the inferior rights
receive absolutely nothing. In cOnse-
quence of this legal fact, only about
two ifths of the bitches taking water
from the Boise river, in point of see
are supplied with water.
The New York, Settlers and Farm
ers' Union bitches are completely dry
and there in now running into the
Ridenbaugh CANAL only a small portion
of its total allotment of water-that
portion amounting to $500 inches, OF
40 feet, which was allotted for the
portion of the canal first constructed
and which reached only as far west
as the tract now known as the Scott
ranch.

Pomeroy News Notes.

WashingtOnian: F. F. Miller says his
big pumping outfit on the river is do
pected. He finds that it will cost from
$3.50 to $500 per acre to irrigate his
orchard on the Snake river bar, where
there are three lifts with elevations
ranging from 80 to 120 feet above the
water level. He says where the life is
only 40 feet, the river bars can be irri-
gated by gasoline engine power at less
cost than people in the large irrigated
districts have to pay for water under
the canal systems.

Oscar King says the early Tukanon
water melons will be ready for the
markets about the 18th. He says the
King crop of melons this year is bet
ter than ever. Some idea of the mag
nitude of the melon crop on the King
place is seen in the fact that there was
marketed in Pomeroy last year 5000
water melons and 1000 much melons
all of which were grown on the King
farm and that the 1000 melons sold IN
Pomeroy were only one-third of the
crop. The towns of Starbuck and Day
ton together bought two-thirds of the
crop or $4,000 melons.

.B|C RA|L WAY PROJECT
BRIDGING THE BAY OF FLOR
 IDA TO KEY WEST.
One of the Most Peculiar Pieces of Railroad Construction the World Has Ever Known-Island
 to Island.

One of the most peculiar pieces of railroad construction ever undertaken in this or any other country is that now being pushed forward by the Florida East Coast line in their exten- sion from Homestead to Key West. In fact the extension extends from Miami to Kew West. but the first 28 miles of It to Homestead have been built.
 A glance at the map of Florida shows why this piece of railroad con sIruction is so peculiar. It shows the Florida keys stretching out beyond the sOuthernmost point of the main land for a distance of more than 100 miles, and it is over these keys, crossing from island to island that the road must be built Of the 154 miles be- tween Miami and Key West 126 miles of roadway are yet to be built, and 5000 laborers are now at work upon this section. Of these 126 miles 65 will be built upon natural foundation formed by the islands, and the remain ing miles must be laid upon arches from island to island, the arches to be formed of concrete.
 Scarcely a mile of this part of the road will be constructed without the solution of questions that have never before arisen-the solving of difficult ties without precedent. The project has been a fayorite one with MT. Hen ry NJ. Flagler for number of years. Its completion will crown his life work and benefit his fellow men for ages.
 Experts place the cost at between ten and twelve millions. The construc- tion of this remarkable roadbed above the rushing waters of the Gulf of Mexico as they pour into the Atlantic is not the only problem to solve. There remains the question of maintenance and operation.
 Although Mir. Flagler has had the project of constructing this road in mind for years, it is only since the rapid development of Cuba following the Spanish war that the plan has seemed feasible.
 As now determined upon, the route crosses from the mainland to Key Lar go. at Jewish Creek. On this key 15 miles of track will be laid The line then crosses from key to key to Key West. Nearly 30 miles of these small islands are used, many of them fertile with pineapples, lemons and cocoanut groves upon them. Some of these are not more than 200 feet apart, while wide open channels, some more than thousand feet across, separate others.
 Where the water is shallow dredges will throw up an embankment that

ABOUT THE COMPLEXION.
At Night Wear Mask of Rye Flour and Linseed Meal and Great Im-
 provement Will Follow.

Among the very best measures is the Turkish or Russian bath. Any thing to induce free precipitation is of great use in clearing the skin if the pores have been clogged. Then con tinGed care is needed that they are kep. free from dust or the deposits of precipitation. The face should be washed every day in tepid water. and dried with a very soft linen cloth. Nothing is more injurious to a deli cate skin than the rubbing and scratching with coarse towels, which some people seem to think is needful. An authority ou complexions says that a paste made Of rye -four and linsesd meal is one of the very best applica- tions for clearing the complexion. lt must be made thick. ani applied as a mask. and worn for II hours without removing. If worn every nigh; for ten nights there will he a wonderful change in the appearance.

that prevail here. while the work is in progress and afterward. ~
 There are four of these long viaducts to be constructed, aggregating 678 miles. The distances are: From Long Key to Conch Key. 10,500 feet; Knights Key channel, 1900 feet; Moser Key channel, 7,S00 feet, and Bahia Honda channel, ,14.95O feet. The via ducts will consist of series of reen- forced concrete, circular, arch spans and piers, some 50, others 60 feet. The depth of the water varies from 10 to thirty feet. The bottom is limestone, but the frequent storms will make it very difficult to place the concrete, and it will be necessary to anchor the piers to the bottom to prevent their shift ing out of line. Piles will also be sunk into the rock and carried to within two feet of the springing line of arches
 It is expected that the entire line will be completed within three years.
