The Pan Hellenic association of
Idaho is making elaborate arrange

coming banquet.
Every fraternity man in the state
holding membership in a recognized
college fraternity is eligible to mem
bership in the association and it is
desired that all such be in attend
ance.
James Stephenson, Jr., of Boise, the
secretary of the association, has been
busy addressing every known frater-
nifty man in Idaho relative to the

stealing. He has already been tried
twice in Canyon county on the same
charge. The jury could not agree
either time in this county.

CANYON COUNTY
FAIR A SUCCESS

The Canyon County fair has come
and gone. Its success reflects great
credit upon the President, Secretary,
Board of Directors and all the off,
GERS of the organization. Every one
realizes that the last fair was the
greatest in the history of Idaho. The
exhibits, the attendance, the racing
and in fact everything, was far ahead
of anything ever seen in this section
of Idaho. 1t is impossible to give a
complete list of awards, prizes and
premiums until after the clerks have
completed their work, which will
take until some time next week.
Secretary Gowen informs us that
he will be prepared to pay all prem
iums on or after October 14th. The
fruit, vegetable, live stock and baby
exhibits far surpassed anything in
Caldwell's history.
1t was a great undertaking, sue
|cessfully carried out. There Is glory
enough for all.

PETTIBONE IS A
VERY SICK MAN

For several days past there have
been meetings of attorneys for both
sides in the Pettibone case in an en-
| deavor to reach a general under
standing regarding the defendants
condition. The states attorneys have
endeavored to get permission of the
| defense to have a commission of ply
sicians appointed to examine the man
and ascertain his exact physical con-
dition, whether. an operation should
be had, but this has been steadfastly
| objected to by the attorneys for the
defense who have at all times insist
ed that Pettibone should be admitted
to bail. They have insisted that his
condition could not improve while
in custody, but have still refused to
allow an examination.
1t was thought that Tuesday some
understanding could be reached but
it was not so. An attorney for the
defense was credited with giving out
an interview to the effect that Petit
bone is as well now as he will be until
released an d that If bail is not allow
ed the defense will insist on an imme-
date trial on the date set for it-Oc
tober Is. Petitioners physician re-
ports that the patients condition is
bad but better than when he first
went to the hospital.
Tuesday Judge Wood requested
DR.. Collister to appar in court and
when the doctor arrived the Judge
stated that he had made the order
for removing Pettibone from the Jail
to the hospital on the statement of
DR.. Collister that such move would
he necessary for the purpose of ex-
animation as to hts exact condition,
or for an operation or for both. He
wished Collister to state if it was still
necessary for the man to be kept at
the hospital for the same reasons for
which he was first sent there and
stated If it was not necessary the
court would make an order that he
be removed to the county Jail. Col
lister stated that he believed the, man
would be better off at the hospital.

Man Disappears.

Sam Bartells of the chatham
ranch located about seven miles north
west of Notus, has been missing from
his home since last Friday noon. Mr.
Bartells has been subject to very
severe attacks of stomach troubles,
and it is believed by his many friends
that he suddenly became demented
and wandered away in that condi-
ton. The search for him was taken
up Friday night and has been con-
tinued ever since. At several differ
ent times the searchers hearts have
been gladdened by promising clues
ony to have their hopes dashed to
the ground, as up to this writing he
has not been apprehended and grave
fears are entertained of his safety.

MAY GET WATER
ON NORTH Side

A movement has been put on foot
by the North Side Homesteaders as
ISOLATION whereby it may be posi-
BILE for those dry land farmers to
obtain water before the government
project on the north side can be fin
ished.
The association has taken up the
matter with the government and the
proposition seems to meet the approx
al of the department of the interior.
The line of the Farmers Union
ditch lies above large portion of the
north side tract, and plan is being
formed whereby the surplus of the
south side reservoir may be made to
serve the farmers on the north
through this ditch.
The great bulk of the water which
will fill the reservoir will come from
the spring flow and the suggestion has
been made that the ground be wa
tered by the surplus from the reser-
voir.
It Is estimated that 40 per cent
over the amount used to water the
dry farms on the south side will be
held in the reservoir and an inter-
change may be effected giving the
land already watered from the Boise
Irrigation service from the reservoir
and diverting the water now brought
down the south side to the north
through the Farmers union, thus
making that ditch to double its pres
ent capacity and admit of extension
into the dry land tract.
This proposition has been sugges
ted to the department and a letter
containing the following Statement
} was sent, Monday morning by tn,
chairman of the association, Acting
!. Director A. P. Davis:
81 am satisfied that this Office ant
the interior department would lool
with favor upon any feasible plan TO
cooperation on the part of the Liant
holders that would expedite the con
struction of this branch of the pro
, ject. A movement along this linz
, would undoubtedly have a bearing

ture I shall ba glad Tn hear of an,

District Court News.

Judge Bryan has decided case
in Washington county which may
prove interesting to the people Of
Caldwell. Sheriff Willoughby of
Washington county had a valuable
horse killed by the Oregon Short Line
railway company. Mr.. Adamson
turned the horses loose on the public
highway and the horse was killed
by. the Pony Express at the crossing
as he was returning home. The law
provides that In case stock Is killed
on railroad, the railroad company
shall keep record, open to the pub
lie, so that anyone interested may be
apprised of fatalities to live stock;
and in case the railroad company Is
delinquent in this report, persons
having stock killed may collect
double the value. In this case the
Adamson horse was valued at $3.50,
but in his rendition of verdict the
court allowed but $4,000, instead
of the $4,000 sued for, holding that
inasmuch as the plaintiff had receiv-
ed word of the accident within ten
minutes of the time of the killing
the fact that the railroad company
did not keep the record provided by
law, caused no damage to the plain.

horse.

Big SUCCESS
SAYS LEADER

The Canyon county fair this year
was held under the most favorable
conditions, and proved success be-
yond the most sanknine hopes. To
begin with the weather was fayora-
BILE. A fine rain the first of the week
kept the dust down and the follow
ing days were bright sunshiny and
cool.
The chief attraction was lndoubt-
eddy the fruit display which it would
be difficult to surpass anywhere in
the world. Scores of different vari7
cites of apples were displayed in neat
and attractive form, and the quality
was simply perfect. The coloring of
the fruit represented some of ma
tnres finest painting, and would
make the best art look cheap by COM
parison. The imperfections seen in
eastern fruit were wholly absent. No
scars, ridges or worm holes, but the
solid perfect fruit. While apples
took the lead, there were magnificent
exhibitions of pears, peaches, grapes
and all different kinds of fruit grown
in this state, and in not a single
variety was there cause for anything
but pride in Canyon county. Nor
was the vegetable display far behind.
There were melons, squashes, pota-
toes and scores of other kinds, per-
feet in size and quality and were eye
openers to quite a number of easter
ners who were looking over the coun-
try and attended the fair. The live
stock department showed a surpris-
ingly large number of entries and a
number of animals in each class OF
horses, cattle hogs and sheep would
attract favorable attention in older
communities than this, where they
have had more time to breed up
their stock
| Nor were the ladies behind the
men in enterprise. There were many
beautiful specimens of their handi-
work in oil painting, water color
painting and needle work and good
ly number of blue ribbons were dis
tributed among them.
The display of farm implements
and all kinds of machinery was
ogod, and commendable enterprise
was shown by putting in power and
having the machinery running. thus
showing just what it would do.
The attendance was said to be the
largest In the history of the fair and
proved that the people appreciate q
thing of merit.
The management is certainly to be
congratulated upon the all round ex'
cellence of the fair and the energy
and enterprise shown in pushing II
to such a success.-Nampa Leader.

Prof. GipsOn's Lecture.

mere was once d poor llttle pFiu-
ter's devil, here in Caldwell, who
used to spend his time in cleaning
rollers and scrubbing type. But he
decided that he wasn't always to re-
main printers devil and so he
availed himself of the local educa-
tional institutions and then went off
to the State university, where he ac-
quilted himself with honor, and then
was selected to be the first represent
alive of this state to Oxford in the
capacity of a Rhodes Scholar. That
poor little printers devil has now be-
come a distinguished scholar, and |
now have the pleasure of introduce
ing Professor Lawrence Gipson,"
were the words by which DR.. Boone,
President of the College of Idaho, in
troduced Prof Gipson at the Opera
House Tuesday evening, when he
gave to his fellow townsmen his lee
ture on Cecil Rhodes and his Great
Idea"
While in England Prof. Gipson es-
tablished a reputation as a lecturer
and it is not too much to say that the
generous audience which greeted him
Tuesday evening enjoyed a genuine
treat.
From the beginning he got control
of his audience and held them for al
most two hours, with scarcely a
movement in the whole house except
those occasioned by the frequent and
enthusiastic outbursts of applause
and merriment. In very eloquent
and scholarly way he unrolled before
his listeners the great drama of the
life of the empire builder, Cecil
Rhodes, and showed how this man
had dedicated his life and wealth in
the cause of Anglo-Saxon supremacy
in the world and how he planned to
see some day great AngIo-Saxon
union-if by no other means, by
placing all the English speaking peo-
pie under the flag and constitution
of the United States.
Prof. Gipson then drifted into rem
iniscences of his life in England as
Rhodes Scholar and his stories kept
the audience in continual state OF
laughter. He knows just what a
good story is and he tells it with all
the richness of true American hui
morist. Indeed, his experience, al.
though but young man, has been
so varied that he is eminently prepar.
ed to entertain as well as to instruct
and those who were not able to at
tend his lecture may feel that they
lost something genuinely good. II
fact, SO many that were present have
enthusiastically desired Prof. Gipsor
to lecture again In the near future
that At is understood that he ma,
deliver another lecture this coming
winter on the intensely interesting
subject of European Political Situa
ltions, which he is so eminently quail
lifted to discuss by reason of his ex
Ehaustive study along those lines, hi
travel and his first hand knowledg
acquired through meeting with diff
ferent great European statesmen.
