| TWIN FAILS, Idaho, May 27.-Adrift
running waters of the Snake river, Miss
S. Belle Chamberlain, state superinten-
dent of public instruction, and Miss
Louise Johnson, state librarian, were
Saturday snatched from the jaws of
death when almost on the brink of
Shoshone falls.
The women we're crossing the river
with I. B. Todd, of Chicago, and H. M.
Heden, of Boston, when the cable
snapped, leaving the boat helpless in
midstream.
The man in charge of the ferry boat
and only for the presence of mind of
the two men in the party the ferry
boat, might have gone over the falls.
But both Todd and Hedden caught the
short end of the cable before the ferry
was away from 1t and hooked it about
beams on the boat whee it he'd fast
as they tugged in the swishing waters.
For fully 80 minutes the party bat
tied with the swift waters of the rag
ing Snake when a man on the bank
began to slowly pull the ferry to shore
and with the assistance of the two men
the boat was worked to within short
distance of the bank in safety. A short
time later the men landed and hauled
the ferry to where the team could be
unloaded.
The party had visited the falls and
were crossing the river to visit Blue
Lakes when the accident occurred.

No Insurance Necessary.

No insurance Will be carried on the
Briarcliff Manor house, for the simple
reason that 1t can't burn up, making
insurance superfiuous and resulting in
a considerable annual saving in this
direction No Helicon Hall disaster
could happen in the house, because
there is nothing upon which fire could
feed except the furnishings, and there
could not be enough combustible ma
terial of this nature in the house to
make fire that menace its safety. An
other big advantage the owner figures
on s that the house will need practi-
cally no repairs for an indefinite pc
Rod There is nothing about 1t to de-
teriorate, and the terra Gotta walls.
room and partitions will practically
last forever.
Less Cost; More Comfort.
The air spaces in the hollow blocks
that form the wallis make them excel
lent nonconductors of heat and cold,
assuring warmth In winter and making
the house cooler in summer than one
w tn ordinary solid walls. Here, then,
appears to be kind of house that will
soon be very common; a house that
can't burn down; one that viii need
little or no repairing, and that is still
within the reach of Reople Of moderate
means.
