company of players, Eckhardt's
Ideals, will play a three nights
engagement at Shoshone in the
opera house. Mr.. Eckhardt, since
his last visit here has strengthen
his company and will produce a
line of new, up-to-date comedies

tees along the line, they are en-
joying large patronage at each per-
formance, which is evident they
are giving good plays by a COM
pany of Al actors.
They will present at Shoshone
the sensational comedy drama,
9 A Fight For Honor" the western
border drama. "The Great North
west" and the roaring farce-come-
dy, "a Woman In The Case. y

Is He The One.

Mr.. Thomas, a cullud gemmen
was brought up from Gooding last
Monday evening to be tried for
his sanity. He had arrived in
Gooding that morning and had
been cutting some funny capers in
the town and some of the citizens
thought it best to take him in tow.
He was, therefore turneds over to
the authorities here and after an
examination he was judged insane
and sent to the asylum at Black
foot Wednesday evening. When
searched it was discovered that he
had purchased ticket in Seattle
on May 20, for Utah and had left
on May 30. He also possessed a
certificate of deposit in the bank at
Ladysmith B. c., for S442.35. For
weapon Thomas had arock sewed
in coat sleeve to be used as a
slug should he be attacked.
While nothing positive is known
suspicion points very strongly to
Thomas as being the person that
ravaged and murdered the little
eleven year old Millhoff girl near
Seattle on the 29th OF May. He is
always talking of soldiers and 9TH
ers pursuring him and speaks of
s)me lady and her little daughter
and claims that he did not injure
tae girl As he purchased his
ticket from Seattle the same day of
the outrage, is always talking
about something of the same ma
ture and left there the 30th, it is
very possible that he may, in some
way be connected with the crime.

Celebration Assured.

From the arrangements made
by the several committees on the
celebration of the Fourth of July
the conclusion is drawn that the
occasion in Shoshone this year
will be observed in q manner fully
fitting the day. More money was
raised by the citizens than was ex-
pected, and they are also giving so
much individual attention to the
minor details of the program that
the event is bound to be success.
The committees appointed to ar
range for the program, etc, are as
follows:
General arrangements: T. Nj.
starrah, f. E. Wilmington, S. E.
Todd.
Finance: G. B. Keefer, E. A.
Bowler.
Music: Miss Maud Waters.
Parade: c. F. Borden w. H.
Horne, w. c. Murphy.
Sports and races: w. F. Mill
saps, Oliver Nicely, Gilbert White.
The president of the day will be
Rev. H. w. Parker, and the mar
shall will be J. L. Fuller, with
Jerre Purdum as aide.
The parade committee report in
dications good of having nagni-
ficent parade, and the following
business men have already desig-
mated their intention of having a
float in the parade: G. F. Borden,
T, NJ. Starrh and W. G. Murphy.
The Lady of The Day will be the
most popular young lady in Hager-
man or Rupert and she will be
elected by popular vote.

If you have vehicle OF any kind
do not be afraid to put little bunt-

Suly parade. If you have a horse
standing idle let the committee
use it on that day as every avail
able horse can be used.

project there are discernible symp
toms of the impending conflict
State issues and state candidate
at present crowd the smaller fr,
from the stage, but as soon as th'
August convention is out of the
way the county campaign will be
gin to hum.
The republican county commit
ee has appointed committeeman
for the precincts on this project, as
it is realized that there is impor-
tant work to be done at once. Fol-
the Rupert precinct is selected w
N. Schilling, veteran republican
worker, who is always found on
the firing line in every political
conflict. The selection was wise
one, as Mr.. Shilling will be able to
unite all the republican elements
for an effective campaign. A poll
will be taken of the precinct in the
near future. Mr.. Shilling left for
Shoshone Thursday to attend a
meeting of the comfy committee.
Eor the Scherer precinct A. c..
DeMary was named as committee
man, but he has declined the ap-
pointment, as he did not feel that
he could give the work the time
and attention it demanded. Geo.
B. Jenness was then selected. DIR.
Killen has been appointed commit
teeman for Hepburn precinct.
Considerable gossip is going the
rounds concerning county eandi-
dates, but no aspirant has yet form
ally announced his candidacy.
The offices to be filled are state
senator, state representative, clerk
and recorder, assessor, sheriff, at
torney, treasurer, surveyor and
coroner.
A. |. Mcmahon, the present ef-
ficient clerk and recorder. has an
nounced his intention to retire |
Harry w. Anderson, his present
deputy, and H. F. Pickren, the
present assessor, will go after the
nomination, and it is rumored that |
! dark horse is being groomed in
5hoshone.
The assessorship looks good to
Frank Eveleth, of Minidoka, and
there will be others.
Joe Wheeler, of Shoshone, has
lis eye on the nomination for sher
if, and there are people over here
Who think he would make a good
fficial.
For the county attorneyship
here will be a contest between
he present incumbent, Frank Dis
ey, and Attorneys PEBBLES and
lkins, of Rupert. Mr.. Disney has
erved two terms, but he has been
nable to find a law against serv-
lg another. Whoever secures the
omination will have a cinch, as r
here is no democratic lawyer in
lie county who will accept the +
omination.
Attorney E. A. Walters, of Sho- i
lone, will be a candidate for the
strict judgeship. as Judge Price i
i'll retire at the expiration of his
rm. He is well equipped for the Y
snch and would make an ideal

Two county conventions will be
I'D, one for the election of dele 2
ties to the state convention, and
e other for the county nomina- !

Louisville KY, April 14-From pres

year for baseball in Louisville, as the
outlook for a successful season, both
from a playing and financial standpoint,
has never looked as good in the past
The team has been strengthened in po-
sitions where the colonies were sup
posed to be weak, and no expense has
been spared to get the players in good
shape for the opening of the season.
On account Of the uncertain weather
here in the spring, three of the old
pitchers of the Louisville team We're
sent to Hot Springs about three weeks
ago, where they remained until last
Friday, coming home in time to take
part in the series with Cleveland. Out

with rheumatism the best part Of last

The great national game still main

the American association circuit dur

From a playing standpoint the
baseball to be furnished to the pat
rons thruout our circuit should, If
ANYTHING, be of a superior quality to
that of previous seasons, for the rea-
son that the st. Paul, Toledo, Kansas

quence the race should be more
interesting than last season.
It is my intention to keep the game
clean and free from rowdyism in all
forms. and at the: same time encour-
age aggressive playing on the part OF
the players. The umpire staff of the
association for 1906 consists OF
Messrs. Jack Haskell. w. j. Sullivan,
John j. Egan. s. ]. Kane and Clar-
ence B. Owens, which. on the whole,
/ consider the best "staffo that has
ever officiated in the association.
They have been instructed to decide
plays just as they see them, without
fear or favor to any club, and to en-
force discipline regardless of what
club it may affect. An even break
and square deal is all that any club
in the association may expect.

Indianapolis, Ind, April 14.-The &C
QUESTION of a quartet of new players to
the hoosier's squad clearly indicates
that Manager Watkins is not satisfied
with the prospects for a winning team.

to compose the outfeld. ~ -
It is hardly expected that Bruce will
be let out as result Of his ability both
in the out and infeld. Carr is making
good at shortstop with a vengeance.
He is not having his old third-base
trouble in the field, and he is clouting
the ball after manner to cause re-
! joicing.
Kahoe and Weaver, both veterans,
should make the catching department
the strongest of the circuit. Farrell is
! a fixture at second base, unless all signs
fail and the strong probability is that
he will be made captain. Massey ap
