himself with revolver He was 6s
years Of age.

BOY STARVES TO DEATH.
Buried by His Weakened Parents Near
Door of Their Cabin.

RENO. New, July THE 14-year- old
son OF John Bowman, who lives in a
hovel made OF old canvas and boards. In
an isolated spot northeast OF the Clough
ranch. a short distance from the north
ern city limits, died. from starvation.
There had been no food In the shack
for three days when the lad died. and
Bowman, his wife and their two sur
viving children were all too Ill even to
beg.
When the boy died, Bowman and his
wife managed to summon enough
strength to wrap him in the scant cover
ing OF his denthhed. and to carry the
corpse to spot just outside the cabin
door. There they scratched a shallow
hole in the ground and buried the body,
without a coffin or other protection save
such as was afforded by the well-worn
bed quilt.
The story Of this tragedy OF starvation
and death was brought TO the coroner,
and he will visit the lowly home, dis
inter the body and give IL decent burial
at the expense of the county. Those who
brought the tale to the coroners office
declared that the destitutiou OF the fam
lily Is pItiable. There has been no food
In the rude cabin for days, and. besides
food the commonest necessities OF life
are absent.

WONDER THE WONDERFUL.


One year ago the mighty hills that had
slumbered undsturbed by human pres
ence through the aeons since their ere

Into life by a mad rush of men in eager
search for the treasures lying guarded
In the bosoms of the sleeping giants
The swarm came. spread out, dtsap-
peareds scattering 70 the peaks and
gulches, seeking, ever seeking the Sc
crets OF natures storehouse. How well
their search was rewarded is ancient
history now All the world has learned
OF the fortunes plucked that night one
year ago from natures shelterlns care,
and the story Of the men who came:
some without a dollar that they could
call their own and who today can write
their check for thousands. aye In cases.

house of fortune. has been told. Never In
the annals Of man has so much wealth
been exposed In so short time. In
no books can we find recorded. except
In the story Of Wonder. the Wonderful.
the establishment within one year OF
community so large, so thriving and so
orderly as was founded here upon the
desert that night one year ago. The
secrets CLEANED, already, are but frac-
tion of what the coming days and weeks
will disclose, for the open sesame OF
work and money will discover greater
riches than those already found. Deep
down in the bowels OF Mother Eearth lie
her greatest treasures and when the hu
man ant has bored and tunneled his way

The development of Idaho is without

a sea OF sagebrush unmarried by irr-

other three years this number will have
been doubled. and thousand additional

Throughout the Snake River valley, from
Wyoming to oregon, transformation Is
being worked. Villages are becoming
towns and towns budding cities. and the

the growth OF all. People are beginning
TO learn that Idaho is another name for
opportunity. For years homeseekers
passed through this fertile region with
never a thought OF Its worth. 1t was
considered a desert waste. They are now
learning that while the scrubby sage
brush is not so beautiful as the stately
pine It grows in a richer soil, and are
coming In numbers to make homes for
themselves and their children. Idaho is
