A LEADING DAIRYMAN.

Lovers of good looking stock who want to see as fine herd of cows as there are in this state will do well to visit Lee s. Dickinson's farm. They will find a herd of thoroughbred grade Holstein cows that can not be dupli- cated in this part of the country. and if they want to see what kind of grass barnyard fertilizer will raise look over MT Dickinson fields of fine grass. It is fine sight. Mr Dickinson is firm believer that there is nothing so good for crops of all kinds as the barnyard fertilizer and he believes in keeping his farming up to date in every re spect.

The wagon hit a tree and with the harness was complete wreck. The horse continued to run and was well into town before it was stop

A COMPOSITION.

At the closing exercises of the Center school Tessie Coll received the gold prize of $25 for the best composition. It was as follows:
 THE AMERIAN SOLDIER.
 The American Soldier. unlike the soldier of most countries of the earth, is a volunteer and since he fights out of his own free will i've may be sure thats .he.. is thoroughly sincere in his love for his country.
 In other countries of the world such as Germany, the young men are com pelled to serve in the army for cer- tain length of time, and so when war drilling In order to be properly pre- pared for battle, of course this is good plan, but young men who have served in an army are apt to become lazy and shiftless and do not wish to work when their time of service is up.
 In America the soldiers are occupied in many different ways before they go to war, and as they drill severely they are always prepared properly when a battle commences.
 To show this more clearly I will re- late a story I have read about the Spanish American War. The soldiers were on their way home and were in some of the southern states on their way to the north. They had made an agreement with the railroad company to start private train at a certain hour and when the time came for the train to start the company refused, saying it had no extra men to spare and that the men would have to wait for a few days. This incensed the men to such an extent that the mer resolved to run the train themselves Among the men were found foul conductors and firemen. The train wa! soon speeding on it's way to the nortl but at the next station they wer' stopped and told that if they went b. that day they would collide with othe
 trains along the road. The soldiers di not know that this was only plan o the company's but they soon found put. In that station the telegrap
 was ticking away at a great rate an
 one of the soldiers got off the trair
 strolled into the station near the tele
 graph. He was munching piece (
 bread and butter and after waitin
 around for a long time he went bac
 and told the soldiers who were watcl
 ing for him, that the company was

 ing for them. The company neve , found out how they were surprised nc did the depot agent know that theral
 ged, hungry soldier who was in tE
 station that morning was depot age1
 himself before he went to war.
 The company were beaten by tl
 soldiers, and the next day the soldier
 were speeding on their way to tl
 north. If the company had taken tf
 case to court there were several lav . yers to defend their own case, and l they had continued fighting there wei doctors to administer to the wounde Q soldiers and priests and ministers

Sheriff O'Neil expects long sea
son, and is making arrangements
for the early arrival of several
other prominent and wealthy men.
The outlook is that there will be a
larger representation of the elite
at this hosiery during the coming
months than in the history Of the
esta blishment.
Mayor Schmitz is having the
time Of his life. Sheriff O'Neil is
sparing no pains TO make him con-
tented. For the mornings enter
tainment there is the drive in the
auto. with stop-overs at the Office
of the mayors attorney and other
places that no one but the chauf-
feur knows anything about. There
are daily and 10-course dinners
for parties of and 3 and A. Then
there are smokers that last long
into the night.
The room occupied by Mayor
SchmitZ is not a cell, although
there are bars at the windows. His
apartments are as nicely appointed
as could be asked for at hosiery
where no fee is charged. There are
cushioned chairs and a table piled
high with books and the latest mag
azines and a comfortable couch.
The mayors bedroom is very
cosy also, there being nothing sug-
gestive of prison about it. A bath
room, so neatly fitted up that it was
certainly never intended for the
use of felons, adjoins the mayors
suite.
But it is the service at the Hotel
O'Neil'' that is especially fine. All
of the mayors servants are attired
alike-in suits made of goods Of a
marked striped effect, made to hang
rather loosely, rather on the negli'
gee style.
Still, in spite of all this lavish
display of elegance, the climate
here does not seem to agree with
Mayor Schmitz. There are certain
lines in the mayors face that run
from either side of the base of the
nose to the corner of the mouth
that suggest heavy worry are care.
And when it comes along toward
evening the mayor takes a position
at the big window of his room that
faces toward old Frisco and asks
himself whether, after all, it was
really worth while.

SHOOTS MAN IN
W|FE'S ROOM
A JEALOUS HUSBAND OPENS
FIRE ON A. S. WHITEWAY IN
HOTEL AT BOlSE-THREE
BULLETS NOT FATAL.

BOISE, June 24.-Desperate with
jealousy, H. M. Hedges yesterday
shot A. S. Whiteway times in the
Idanha hotel. Whiteway was seri-
ously wounded but will probably re-
cover The trouble occurred over
Mrs. Hedges. Hedges suspected in
timacy between them and took
Whiteway to his room, where Mrs.
Hedges was, he stated, for the pur-
pose Of killing Whiteway in her
presence. He remarked after the
shooting that he did not have nerve
enough to shoot his wife.
Whiteway was shot through the
leg, neck and back. He attempted
to escape through the window when
Hedges opened fire. Mrs. Hedges
tried to hold her husband, but he
shook her off and emptied his re-
volver.
Gov. Gooding, Detective McPar-
land and other prominent in the
Haywood trial had rooms in the
hotel and the superstition that the
shooting involved them caused
great excitement until the true
state of affairs became known.
Hedges was surrounded by detec-
tives as soon as he came out of the
room and made no resistance to ar
rest. He and his wife were locked
up.
Whiteway is a contractor of this
city. Hedges an engineer of Cald-

MORE DOPE ABOUT
MOORE SPARR0WS

The kid with the scanty hair re-
marked today:
Il see that Mayor Moore has Of
fcially declared that the grandaddy
sparrow (the 1 that was responsible
for the 1,737,725 sparrows that in
fest the city, has been assassinated
by Otto Anderson, official sparrow
eXecutioner.
Secretary Fred CASTOR, of the
$50, 600 dinner club, has by cute
method of mathematics calculated
that there are left some dozens OF
sparrows yet since Executioner An,
derson began his slaughter week
ago. Also, the secretary wants ev'
cry person who sees sparrow to
notify him of the time, location and
/ antecedents OF the bird. Perhaps
it is because the dapper secretary
wants to try and trace all the birds
to this granddaddy sparrow discov,
cred by Mayor Moore. This afore
said granddaddy is a Roosevelt man
and doesn't believe in race suicide
evidently.
"If the coast cities, our dealy
| rivals, hear about our frantic efforts
with the small bore guns to eradi
cate the sparrow they won't do a
thing but ship in carloads to us
| And there won't be any car short
age, either.
They next more probably will be
more salary grab-to pay the exc
cutioner's ammunition bills"

will be marked relief of all distress
sing symptoms.
So we see that the man or wom-
an who overfeeds is not only poi
soned, but starved. Often the body
of such person is very thin. The
reason for such thinness is sim 1Iy
that the food taken is not digest4d
and so passes through the food iIbe
without feeding the body. The IA
tional cure in such cases is, OF
course, to eat less.
AS a broad, general rule, it may
be said that the following rep.
resents the approximate quantity of
food needed by person Of average
physique, doing ordinary mental
and physical work: For breakfast
an apple, raw or baked or an equal
quantity of some other fruit; a
saucerful of some good cereal, such
as boiled rice with cream; y,ass
of milk and 2 slices of brown
bread graham or rye). For lunch.
con, a simple salad, dressed wi 4
good olive oil and lemon juice; two
or three slices of brown bread. For
dinner, soup; small quantity Of
fresh meat. or beans or peas; one
or two cooked vegetables; fruit;
brown bread.
Anyone who tries this plan OF
diet is likely to find after a few
weeks that he needs still less food
In most cases it is advisable tC
gradually reduce the midday meal
until it consists of fruit only. Fl lai
ly even this may be dropped. Many
hundreds who have adopted 'te
plan of two meals day, divided BY
a period of from to 10 hours, have
| found it perfectly satisfactory
method of diet.
Frequently on changing to such 2
dietary the patient will complain Of
