CONEY ISLAND
FAIR FEATURE
Directors Have Decided to
Give Novel Attractive
Carnival

The directors of the lewiston
Charleston Fair association will pro-
vide the amusement features for the
fall fair instead of contracting with a
regular carnival company as has been
the practice in former years.
The plans provide for hold in the
carnival on the Snake river island with
a stage erected on the Lewiston shore
while the audience is seated on the
island.
The directors will secure a comic
opera company with a change of pro-
gram each evening for the theater fea-
ture and the regular opera program
VIII be interspersed with bright spe-
cialty acts.
The island features will be an aggre-
cation of the best carnival features in
the country with all kinds of high
class amusements. The admission fee
to the island will include a seat priv
ilege for the theater program and an
extra admission to the side attractions
will be charged as has been the rule
In all carnival attractions.
This decision of the fair manages
-ment has been reached after confer
ring with all available carnival COM
panies and investigating the character
of the shows to be placed on the. cir
cult this year The management an
nounced early in the season that they
would give the people something new
and novel in the way of amusements
this year and after considering all Of
fers 1t was believed advisable to pro-
vide their own features which will al
low much larger sum to be expended
In bringing higher class Of attrac-
tions for the carnival shows.
The river and island win be beauti-
fully Illuminated with colored lights
and every detail pertaining to the COM
fort of the fair visitors will be atend-
ed to.

Painful Injury to Aged

Stallion

Special to Evening Teller.
CULDESAC, Idaho, June S.-Porter
Bros. & Welch are having hard time
getting men to lay the track build the
railroad bridges up the canyon. The
bridge men all struck and left town.
Then the laborers don't want to pay
their poll and road tax and especially
the foreigners and SO many have left
on that account.
George F. Lyons. Grand Army man
63 years old, was injured by a horse
about two weeks ago. He was taking
care of a large stallion and in crossing
the Cottonwood creek, three miles
north of Culdesac, the animal attacked
the small horse that he was riding and
caught Mr.. Lyons by the leg inhicting
a painful wound. In the scrape Mr.
Ivon's little finger on the right hand
was torn entirely off, and his left leg
is badly hurt, but not broken ana II

the privilege of visiting the academy
grounds. The order of prohibition
which is said to have a large place in
Mrs. Ayres' complaint in support of
her suit for damages, does not apply to
her husband or to her son, who is a
cadet at the academy.
The order of prohibition against
Mrs Ayres which was issued before
her husband had returned from the
PHILIPPINES, followed a long period Of
Misunderstanding between Mrs. Ayres
and the academy oflcials. The facts
are disputed, and it is believed that
interesting testimony may be intro
duced by both sides to the convention
should the case come to trial.

TESTIMONY CONCLUDED
IN CONSPIRACY CASES
All Evidence Will Be In Today Both for De-

Jury Early Next Week

Wilson never saw his claim before FL
ing upon it,
AT some length Dwyer denied that
he and his wife ever visited Wilson at
the latter's home, as Wilson swore
when he was on the witness stand, and
coached him how to answer the cross
examination papers at the land office
incidental to his making final proof.
Wilson swore that upon that occasion
Dwyer drove a sorrel horse. Dwyer

MOSCOW, Idaho, June S.-when
court convened at $3.50 O'Clock yester-
day morning. There was some dis
cussion relative to the admission of
two affidavits, one by Mrs. Mary ].
Harris, and the other by her daughter,
Miss Janette Harris. The prosecution
objected to their Introduction, con-
tending that they did not tend to con-
tradict anything to which the wit
nesses had testified to. After the affi-
davits had been read, the court in
structed the jury to consider the con-
tents Of the aff1davits just as though
the two women had taken the witness
stand and so testified.
The affidavits were largely to the
effect that while the women were dis
GUESSING with Clarence w. Robnett in
the directors room of the Lewiston
National bank the taking up of certain
lands, Mr.. Robnett always maintained
the greatest Of secrecy relative to the
other members Of the bank, always
lowering his voice when they came
into the room. At no time during any
Of these conferences were the bank
officials close enough to hear what
was discussed between the women and
Robnett.
At this juncture T. H. Bartlett, reg
lister of the Lewiston land office, was
called to the witness stand to identify
certain land ONCE plats, and explain
present and past conditions Of certain
tracts Of land now made famous by
the trial
William Dwyer was then called to
the witness stand. He was first in
terrogated relative to the going up into
the timber Of Guy L. Wilson and Mrs.
Justice. The entrymen were to pay
their railroad fares, and he to look
after expenses from that time on. 1t
was not certain at that time that
claims could eventually be secured.
because the land had not been sur
veyed and thrown open to settlement.
If they finally secured claims, Dwyer
was to get location fee. II they
didn't get any claims, each was to
stand his own expenses. He told the
entrymen the claims were fifth choice,
worth about 5000 or $7oO.
Claims "No Good" Anyway.
Dwyer denied he had anything to do
with the filling out of the people for
the T aylor boys. jackson O'Keefe and
several other men who formed part
Of their locating party. The witness
stated that Fred Justice had charge OF
the famous lineup ait the land office
in April, 1904.
The defense tried to bring out some
conversations between Dwyer and Fred
Justice, now deceased, to which the
prosecution objected. District Attor-
ney Ruick contended that Of the de-
Tense is to be permitted to introduce
Conversations between Dwyer and JUS
tice, relative to the latter's claim, that
the prosecution be given permission
to examine other witness relative tc
conversations they had with Fred JUS

ney Moore said he was showing thai
Fred Justice got the descriptions OF
his and Guy L. Wilson's claims mixed
SO that each filed upon the others
claims. He said It was through JUS
