State Engineers and Irrigation.

The United States Department of
Agriculture has issued Bulletin 168,
a paper on the state engineer in
his relation to irrigation, by r. p.
Teele. This report gives the sub
stance of the laws prescribing the
duties of the state engineers in
relation to irrigation in the various
states, but deals especially with the
methods of carrying out these du-
ties. Public control of streams in
the arid region centers in the office
of state engineer, and the report is
essentially a comparative study of
methods of supervising the acquire
ment of rights, defining existing
rights, and supervising diversions
from streams. The report is of i'm
terest especially to public officials,
Legislators, and others having to do
with water rights. Requests for
this bulletin should be made to the
Director of the Office of Expert
ment Station, u. S. Department OF
Agriculture.

BILL THOMAS SHOOTS
G. DORIAN AT ATLANTA

Charles Doran, of Boise, was shot
through the left. arm at Atlanta
last Saturday by Bill Thomas. The
shooting was done in Shorty Burn
hams saloon. Doran is now in a
hospital at Boise, having passed
through here Sunday. The doctors
are endeavoring to save the limb.
Thomas is under arrest at Atlanta.
Prosecuting Attorney Green will
leave Friday evening to coduct the
preliminary hearing.
There are several stories current
regarding the cause of the trouble.
One is that il was the result of some
differences that arose in poker
game. Doran's account of the acci-
dent is that after the game was
over, in which he had not partici-
patcd, Thomas approached him and
demanded fifty dollars
Il don't owe you any money"
responded Doran, and after little
parley told Thomas to go on about
his business. Thomas left the sa-
loon, but returned in a short time,
and walked up to Doran, with both
hands in his pockets.
81 thought he had an empty beer
bottle in his pocket said MIR.
Doran, land was going to hit me
over the head with it. So [ threw
up my left hand, just as he pulled a
gun and fired. My hand was in
such position that it protected my
heart, and presume that my action
in trhowing up my arm saved my
life. Thomas did not say a word
from the time he entered the door
until he shot. -
Thomas has the reputation of
being a ''bad man. He was re-
leased from the penitentiary Deem
/ Der 21, 1901, after serving 10 years
! for manslaughter committed in
/ Owyhee county. Doran said that
Thomas had ''held up, as he ex-
pressed it, a number of men of
the mining camp for money, after
poker games, and ne rather sup
poses that when he applied to him
for $50, it was just one of his peri
odical bluffs. - He had been work
ing in the Black Warrior and is an
expert driller.

MILL FOR MONARCH
GOES IN THIS FALL

M. H. Coffin has returned from
Atlanta. He brings information
showing the camp is rapidly taking
on activity; that its future is con-
stantly growing brighter.
Perhaps the most important news
brought by Mr.. Coffin is that Dan
iel Kirby, manager of the Monarch,
has definitely decided to get the
equipment for the mill in the fall.
He recently visited Salt Lake end
while there gave orders for all
the machinery. Contracts have
been let for the lumber for the
mill building, and everything is
to be put in readiness for installa-
tion of the machinery when it ar
rivcs.
The mill will have a capacity of
$50 tons a day. The present bat
terry of 20 stamps is to be incorpo-
rated into the new plant. Amalga-
nation, concentration and cyanide
treatment are to be employed in
saving the values.
The tramway will be two miles
in length and will cost $45, 900. 1t
will deliver 200 tons of ore to the
mill in 10 hours. On the mountain
there are subsidiary trans for de-
livering ore to the main tram from
other workings and dumps.
The power plant is located just
below the junction of the Boise ano
Yuba rivers below the town of At
lanta. 1t will have a capacity oi
600 horse power. The power will
be transmitted u miles to the mill.

machinery are on the road. States

$500 Cup for Beet RaISerS.

The Great Western Sugar COM
pany, through President Havemeyer
and General Manager Morey, has
offered a magnificent solid silver
loving cup, valued at $500, for the
best state exhibit of sugar beets at
the exposition of irrigated products
to be held at Boise during the Four
teenth National Irrigation congress,
September 3 to 8, inclusive. For
this valuable trophy the sugar beet
raisers Of Colorado, Utah, Idaho,
Washington and California will
enter into competition, and the
largest and most varied display of
this profitable crop ever exhibited
will be a leading feature of the ex-
position. The subject of sugar beet
culture will be one of the most inn
portant agricultural topics discussed
at the congress.

t. 6. Burlingame Prospect

Bar With a Pow

E. E. Burlingame, who has been
on the Atlantic seaboard for some
months past, working in the inter
est of his mining property at juno.
tion Bar, this county, returned to
Mountain Home with four gentle
men from the east. They visited
the Bar, inspected the work done
there, returned here Thursday and
left for home. Mr.. Burlingame
has gone down the road piece
as he expressed it, will return in a
few. days, and after attending to
some business here will proceed
again to New York. In August he
will arrive here again and hopes by
that time to have his affairs in
such shape as to be able to devote
all of his time to the property.
After securing bonds on number
of placer claims at Junction Bar,
Mr.. BuIlingame year ago put on
a power drill to prospect the ground,
and is still prosecuting that work.
He has sunk many holes, and says
is not yet satisfied that there is
sufficient gold there to justify the
heavy expense of installing dredges,
which is his purpose. There seems
to be no regularity as to the depth
of bed rock, varying from twenty
to seventy feet. At some places
false bed rock of clay is encoun-
tered. Very few boulders are found.
He says that if the exploitation
now being made demonstrates that
it can be made paying dredging

tions and operate one of the most
extensive dredging enterprises in

EVENING OF THE FOURTH.
After dinner the crowd gathered
in the park and listened to a con-
cert by the band. Later a pyro-
technic display, cred1table in every
respect, was presented from an ele-
waited platform on Alturas street,
south. The moon was shining
brightly, and seemed to consider
this a rival attraction, smiled good
humoredly at mans puny effort to
invade it's province of lighting up
the heavens at night, and as a
rocket would dart upward, seeming
ly about to fly into it's face, more
intense would become its rays, un-
til finally the radiant contest clos
ed, with the moon as winner and

ing second.
AT THE RACE TRACK.
There was a gratifyingly large
attendance at the track Thursday
afternoon. The grand stand, just
completed, will seat comfor tably
about 900 people, including the
twelve boxes in front. They were
all filled, six in each. and the tiers
of seats behind. There were many
spectators in carriages and around
the betting stand. 1t is therefore
safe to say there was largely in
excess of 1000 people on the
ground, exclusive of babies, and,
apparently none of them escaped,
: for they were everywhere.
: Ed Goddard, who had the poo
( privilege, says the inclination OF
: the crowd was to bet numerously or

LEROY BELL IS
DROWNED AT PINE
Taken With Cramps While
Swimming Across the
South Boise River
"Wednesday.

Leroy Bell, son of Mrs. Frank
Boyd, was drowned in the South
Boise river at Pine between one
and two o'clock Wednesday after
noon.
He had been fishing all fore
noon with Harry LIE Bar, during
which time there had been more or
less talk about swimming, and they
agreed to test their skill later in
the day. Shortly after lunch they
decided to swim the river. Before
doing so, Mr.. lie Bar asked him
several times if he were a good
swimmer, cautioning him that II
not, he must not attempt the pro-
posed feat. Young Bell assured
him that he was and they started
to race across the stream with
their clothes on. Mr.. lie Bar says
that when in mid stream, he looked
over his shoulder, and saw Bell just
behind him, swimming strongly.
He did not look back again; but
W1CIl IlC lCd(llCo tiiS oPPSAs~ SeA@AA~
his companion was no where to be
seen. He had evidently been taken
with cramps and drowned almost
instantly. This was doubtless the
result of having gone into the
water so soon after eating a meal,
which is always dangerous.
The body was not found until SIX
O'Clock in the evening, a quarter oil
a mile or more down stream. Harry
lie Bar brought it to the home OF
the grief stricken mother and ster
father that night, arriving here early
in the morning. The funeral SER
vices occur at O'Clock Friday af-
tcrnoon.
Leroy Bell was 21 years old II
April. He grew up here, where h'
had many friends. All the ole
timers speak of him in terms o
highest praise; say that he was al
ways we'll behaved, manly boy;
steady, industrious youth, givinI
promise of an useful, honorabl
manhood. He had been working
at the Mountain View mine TO
some time past, and Manager l.

ROCK DRILLING CONTEST.
Only two teams entered the
double handed drilling contest. E.
Thomas and H. Andregg; Jack
Bolles and Jesse Edwards. The
rock was no good. The first named
team split it in two; having put
down four holes, making 32B inches.
Bolles and Edwards won first mon
ey with three holes and 33s inches.
When they finished the rock was
in a half dozen pieces. The Win
ners work on the irrigation tunnel.
There being no rock to work on,
the single handed contest was de-
clared off, though there were sew
eral miners from the hills ready to
enter.
Ex-Governor Hunt and George
Hayden acted as judges.

There was a heavy rain and high
wind at Montgomery. Ala. during the
day. but no serious damage was done.
A gale is blowing at Birmingham to
night after a day of steady rain, and
at Memphis the rain has been contin.
uous for thirty-six hours.
Atlanta began to feel the storm at
noon today, but up to 9 O'Clock to-
night its force had not been increased
to an extent portending serious re-
suits. The damage to railroads Is very
heavy. Reports to the officials OF the
Louisville & Nashville Road from the
Superintendent Of the Mobile and
Montgomery divisions indicates that
the losses approximate one million
dollars. Tracks between Flomaton,
Ala, and Pensacola, Fla, are obstruct-
ed in many places and in some places
badly torn up by falling trees, while
the section between Georgian and
Graceville, Fla, has suffered similarly.
At Pensacola, the Louisville & Nash
vile grain elevator has been destroy
ed and the entire trackage to Escam-
bia Bay is ruined. The railroad wharf
at Pensacola is reported to be a to-
tel loss and thirty-nine cars of coal
of the company were washed into the
bay.
Further reports indicate that the
roadbed between Minette, Ala, and
Mobile, distance of thirty miles, has
been washed away, rendering traffic
impossible. Five hundred section
workmen are being rushed tonight
from Montgomery and Birmingham to
the scene of damage.
The Louisville & Nashville also suf-
fered several washouts near New Or
leans and no trains are being run to-
night over certain section of this track
age. The New Orleans & Northeast
ern Road reports its tracks under wat
er at several places in the vicinity of
New Orleans. No word has come from
any of the other railroads having their
terminal at Mobile
The waters of Lake Pontchartrain,
which for the past twenty-four hours
have been five feet above normal, caus-
ing serious overflow in parts of New
Orleans, receded appreciably. The wat
er in the submerged district began to
drain off, and the wind, which veered
to the northwest, began to drive the
waters of the lake toward the gulf.
