Blue Creek.

Those interested in any way in the
blue Creek country" will be interest
ed in the following in reference to
that country, which comes from one
who has holdings there. This party
says:
THE Bar M company on Blue Creek
has spent In the neighborhood Of
twenty thousand dollars in building
dams and reservoirs to store the water
Of Blue Creek. This company owns
about 1000 acres of fine land which
has produced large quantities of lucerne
In the past, but II is the intention to
raise beets there In the near future.
In recent conversation Mr.. Davis,
manager OF the Bar M ranch, stated
that the primary object would be
carried OUT fully, but railroad would
have to be built In order to transport
the beets to the factory. The o, S. l..
90. has run preliminary lines up the
valley In view OF direct road to Bur-
ley aroute at least one hundred miles
shorter than by way of Pocatello. The
railroad company would prefer run
ming across from Malad city, IL posi-
BILE, but the route IS not practicable
owing to the immense grade, and by
those who are in position to know it
is thought that the o. S. L. will finally
accept the Blue Creek route, thereby
keeping out competitive line that
might. desire road through to Boise
and Portland. The south end OF the
valley Is at the east end Of the prom
ontory and some company will
before many years use this pas
sage way to the north and south. The
grade is very easy, the hardest Of all
being the rattle snake pass" which
is very good compared with other
mountains that are crossed, When
a line goes through there great dry
farming country will be opened. This
year IL Is estimated that over &c. 900
bushels OF fine wheat will be raised In
Blue Creek. The Pocatello country
Is adjacent thereto and this would be
touched also. Many Cache Valley
people have invested in Blue Creek
state lands, OF which there is but
little left Through the land grant
given by the government TO the Gen.
trail Pacific railroad, the railroad still
owns every other section. IL is pre-
sumed that all this vast quantity of
land will be pus on the market at
some future day and then that part Of
the country will be great wheat pro-
ducing section. Blue Creek Valley
covers an area twenty miles in length
and six miles in width. From present
indications 1t looks as though the
people who have thus invested have
made no mistake, and at some future
time will realize good money on their
Investments

WHY THUNDER SOURS MILK

To many persons the curdling of

Yet the whole process really is simple

MIX like most other substances,

milk bacteria that in day or two,
under natural conditions. would cause
the fluid to sour, are peculiarly sus-
ceptible to electricity. Electricity in
spirits and invigorates them. affecting
them as alcohol, cocaine or strong
tea affect men. And under the cur.

with amazing energy, and instead Of
taking a couple of days TO sour the
milk, they accomplish the task COM
pletely in half an hour.
II Is the thunder in a storm
that sous milk; 1t is the electricity
In the air that does It. With an cleo
trio battery II is easy, on the same
principle, to sour the freshest milk.
A strong current excites the microbes
to supermicrobic exertions, and in
few minutes they do job that un-

them a couple of days.
Employers of labor regret that cleo

Berger Says
Band Boys
Need Money
CAPTAIN HAS STARTED A MOVE
MENT TO HAVE TRANsPoRTA-
TION FUNDS GIVEN TO BOYS,

Captain Berger has started a mOve-
ment to have the $4,000 raised for the
purpose of bringing the band boys
home turned over to them so that they
can pay the accumulated bills which
have been piling up during the past
four months, during which time the
Captain says that the boys have not
received a cent in wages. He believes
that the people who contributed the
money to bring the band home will
be willing to have that money given
to the boys, whom he says are abso-
lutely without funds and will be for
the next month, or until they can earn
money by playing for the County. The
Captain has seen Governor Carter and
J. II. Gait two of the men who col
lected the funds, and states that they
are willing that their share of the
contribution be used for that purpose.
The Captain stated this morning that
he will see personally each of the con-
tributors and see if they are willing
that the money shall help put the boys on
their feet.
For four months the boys have been
absolutely without pay" said the Cap
tain, "and they landed here dead broke
except for the few dollars each one re-
ceived as a share of the 5000 raised on
board of the S. s. Korea by the pas
sengers. Many of the boys came home
to find a large accumulation of grocery
bills and they do not know what to do
as they will not receive any money
from the County until after Christ
mas. 1t is a poor Thanksgiving that
they will have unless the good people
of Honolulu help them out.
"When we were in Reno we telegram
saying that our passage home was ar

PASTOR OF CENTRAL UNION RE-
TURNS AND SPEAKS HIGHLY OF
THE CONCERTS BY THE BAND.
ARRESTED 70 r BRGBER

DR.. j. Walter Sylvester, D. D., the
pastor of Central Union Church who
has been on a leave of absence for
some time, returned yesterday from
the mainland and will take up his du-
ties as pastor at once.
The report spread here by a clipping
from a Denver newspaper which stated
that Dr. Sylvester was very i'll and
that it was very probable that he would
not return was a mistake growing out
of the fact that he was obliged to
break an engagement to preach and
the reporter sent to obtain his sermon
was evidently told that he was i'll as
reason for his non-appearance. DR..
Sylvester enjoyed the best of health
during the time he was away and has
returned to take up his work in splen-
did physical condition.
While in Denver, DR.. Sylvester had
conferred upon him the degree Of Doc
tor of Divinity by the University of
Denver. This makes three degrees
that have been conferred on him. The
president of the university H. A. Buch-
tell, recommended such a course to the
trustees and they conferred it upon
him. Buchtell is the Governor-elect
Of the state.
DR.. Sylvester heard the band when
they gave their concert in Denver and
he speaks highly of them as a musical
organization. "The band made
very favorable impression upon the
people of Denver. Berger gave a very
fine selection of music during the con-
cert when 1 attended and the boys
made a fine impression wherever they
seemed to go as far as I learned They
did play to poor houses, but that was
on account of the many other attrac-
tions in the winter theaters.
IT was told that they attracted the
attention during the large Elk carnival
of all the bands. They looked very
neat in their white uniforms and their
music vas splendid People in Denver
told me that there was nothing IN the
carnival in that line which approached
them They acted splendidly on the
steamer coming down. The passeH-
gers raised about $500 for them"

, The recount proceedings before the
Supreme Court in the Brown-Iaukea
contest have reached the intensely in
teresting stage. This morning the
proceedings were resumed and after
Eugene Buffandeau the clerk in the
county clerks office had testified, the
Supreme Court began to have the ac-
cepted ballots of the first precinct of
the fourth district, counted. The re-
suit was surprising. To a certain extent
it was dsheartening to the Iaukea side
although the result of the count up to
noon today was not alarming to the
respondent. Exactly 107 ballots were
counted. Out of this number were
decided by the Supreme Court to have
been improperly counted by the ms
pectors of election. Four were thrown
out without reservation, while three
were thrown out subject to the inter-
ested side being able to prove their
being legal ballots. OF the ballots
thrown out four were for Iaukea and
three for Brown, which gave Brown a
gain of one over Iaukea. Two of the
Iaukea ballots was cast out because
they We're torn, one because of an
erasure of a cross on the ballot and
the fourth because of some dots and
an erasure which made a distinguish
ing mark.
One Of Browns ballots was cast out
because of being torn, one for erasion
of a cross and the third because of
dots on the ballot, making a distin-
gushing mark. Chief Justice Frear
stated that if it could be shown that
the mutilation of the ballots had oc-
CURED after the ballot had left the
hand of the voter, those ballots would
be declared to have been property
counted by the inspectors.
Both Brown and Iaukea were present
in court with Judge Gear and j j.
Dunno representing the former and
w A. Kinney and w. S. Edings the
latter. When it is known that Tau
kea's majority over Brown out of a
total vote of about $500 is but IA, the
slightest gain by Brown may have
a material effect upon the result. II
the average of 1 vote to every 107 bal
lots is maintained, it will mean that
Brown will win.
A great deal of Importance is at
tached to the canvas of the first pre-
cinct ballots for the result may have
a material influence on the Supreme
court in giving its decision on Browns
petition for a recount. The proceed
ings now before the court are not the
actual recount at all, but consist mere
ly of taking evidence from the ballots
themselves, regarding the claims made
by Brown for a recount.
Following the conclusion of the can
vas of the ballots of the first precinct
the inspectors of election will be called
to the stand to try and show that the
three mutilated ballots decided this
morning to have been Improperly
counted, were torn after they left the
hand of the voter, probably after they
had been taken out of the ballot box
and were being counted.
At the rate maintained this morning
the proceedings will be prolonged to
an all but interminable degree. An
hour and a half was consumed in going
over 107 ballots.

Buffandeau was the only witness exa-
