Camas Prairie chronicle. [volume] (Cottonwood, Idaho) 1901-1917, 1907-06-28

The CHRONICLE is glad to be
able to inform it's readers this
week that Miss HeIga Carlson
and little brother, who came so
near to being murdered last
week south of town, are now
practically out of danger and on
the high road to recovery. For
several days after the tragedy
their lives hung in the balance
and it was not known whether
the change would be for the
better or worse. The little boy,
who was thought to be in the
most critical condition, rallied
first and was soon showing
strong signs of recovery. Miss
Carlson's condition, however,
did not change for the better
until a few days ago. She was
not feeling we'll before the shoot
ing and the shock of her wounds
and the scare received upset her
so that for several days she was
not able to take nurishments to
speak of but at present she is do
ing nicely and unless complica-
tions of unknown character arise
later she will recover from her
wounds.
Thomas Eagen, the railroad
contractor who did the shooting,
has stated at Grangeville that he
had no intention of shooting the
little boy and did not know until
later that he was hurt, He re-
fuses to make any further state
ment regarding the affair.
Eagen's self inflicted wound
was dressed after he was placed
in the county jail and,is healing
nicely. Sixteen stitches were
required to sew it up.

without one reaching the
home plate. He still prefers
to remain with Wieser.
George Mcbride is in a danger
GUS condition at Lewiston from
being struck on the head by a
rock thrown by one of three men
who tried to rob him recently.
It is feared he has a blood clot
on the brain which may result
fatally.
Another big lumber company
composed of New York and
Pennsylvania capitalists and
capitalized at $1,OOO,OOO has
entered the Idaho field and filed
articles of incorporation at
Lewiston. It's aim is to purchase
timber and manufacture lumber.
H. M. Hedges, an engineer of
Caldwell, shot and seriously
wounded A. S. Whiteway, a
Boise contractor, Sunday after
noon in a hotel at the state
capital. Whiteway was shot
three times. The trouble arose
over him paying too marked at
tention to Mrs. Hedges.
The P. & l. N. railroad offici-
ais have finally made public the
route which that road will take
down the Meadows valley and as
a result the present town Of
Meadows is about two miles off
the line. The company will
start a new town on land of its
own and in a year or so the
present town will all be moved
to the new location.
Two Indians, a woman prob
ably so years of age, and a
daughter in her teens, are camp
ed on South hill to rest for some
time before resuming their long
overland journey to eastern
Wyoming. They are members
of a southern tribe, the girl, be-
ing able to speak English, tells
that they walked from Arizona
to Elk City to join the husband
and father, but on arriving here
Camas Prairie chronicle. [volume] (Cottonwood, Idaho) 1901-1917, 1907-06-28

they learned they had made a
mistake and should have gone to
Elk City, Wyoming. The girl
tells a pitiful story of their long
tramp that began last fall, of
how they were without funds
when they started and had to
beg along the way. For a tent
they have a skeleton of a tepee
left by the Indians last fall,
banked with pine boughs, but no
roof to shelter them from the
rain. When they arrived in Elk
City they were without food and
badly in need of clothing. The
good people of Elk City, and
particularly the little girls in
town, have been touched by the
HELPLESS condition of the strang-
ers and have given them much
assistance.-Mining News.

Everything will be done to ac-

make the celebration pleasant for

The ball games will be iercely
contested and will prove great
attractions. The Clifford ball
team will be here to contest for
the purse and will insure a
fast game. In a recent trip this
team defeated the Juliaetta team
by a score Of 2 to l, making the
second defeat for Juliaette this
year in 21 games played. This
shows the Clifford team to be a
good one and when it goes up
against Cottonwood for the purse
there will be something doing"
indeed. The local team had
thought of going to Grangeville
on the Fourth but has given this
up on account of the way the
purse is divided there and win
stay at home during the cele-
bration and try to take Clifford
into camp.
Come to Cottonwood on the
Fourth. You will have the time
of your life and will have plenty
to see every hour of the celebra-
ton.

AMERICANS RUSH TO LONDON
Quarter of Million visitors Expected
from United states by First
of November.

LONDON, May 11.-(speciaL)-The FIRST
Of the seasons visiting Americans are al
ready doing the sights Of London pre-
paratory TO their trip to the continent
The real rush is expected in few days
now, and 1t is believed that It will be
record one. 1t is expected that something
like $50, 600 first and second class passengers
will probably visit this country from Amer
lea before the first OF November.
The great London hotels are already
booking hundreds of orders for American
visitors. At the Carlton hotel rooms have
already been engaged as far ahead as
August. From all sides comes the report
that the advance orders are heavier than
ever before.
American holiday makers, as q rule, spend
from three days to a fortnight in London.
In that time they contrive to see not only
the most OF the famous show places. rang
ing from Westminster Abbey to tile Ches-
shire Cheese. but also to do a great deal
OF shopping. For some reason the West
End shopkeepers are expecting unusually
large purchases by Americans sthis year,
and they are making preparations accord
ingly. Among thos . who have been laying
in a supply OF goods for the American fn-
vasioh may be mentioned especially the
jewellers, the tailors and the brie-a-brac
dealers.

LABoRERs' HOMES TOO CHEAP
Engineer Finds He Cannot Build mt
Figures Fixed by Irish
Board.

DUBLIN. May 11-(special.) .)-There was
an interesting discussion at the last meet
ing of the North Dublin Rural council with
regard to that body's new scheme for the
erection Of cottages for laborers
1t appears that the local government
board has just decided that $3.50 should be
the maximum price Of laborers cottage,
and Mr.. Morris, the engineer to the coun-
Gil, has reported that this sum would not
be anything like SUFFICIENT to meet the cost
Of the scheme proposed, having regard to
the quality of the land selected, It's close
proximity to Dublin and the fact that in
each case the extent OF the land taken
over was more than one acre. He calcu-
lated the price OF an acre OF land in North
Dublin at $500, and the price of the kind
Of cottage proposed at the least at $780,
North Dublin he argued. was not really
rural in the sense in which that word might
be applied to most Of the country districts
of Ireland, but rather "semi-rural." It was
decided to ask the local government board
to state IL more than $3.50 could be expended
on the cottages.

sEMI-CENTENNIAL OF MUTINY
sepoy Rebellion Broke out In India
Fifty Years Ago Last
Friday.

CALCUTTA, May 1i.-(Speciai.)-C
erable fear has been expressed lest the fif-
ueth anniversary OF the Indian mutiny
might result IN another uprising II was at
first proposed to celebrate the dates In
connection with the mutiny, but military
authorities said that II would be dificult
TO calculate the effects OF such celebrations
on the oriental mind, and for this reason
the entire subject has been practically
abandoned, though some of the older SOL
diers more nearly allied with the traditions
Of the uprising and its suppression may
celebrate In a small way.
The mutiny began on Sunday afternoon,
Msy TO- 1857 (ffty years ago yesterday,
with Sepoys of the Bengal army at Meerut,
the largest military station in India, who
shot some Of their officers. released their
comrades from prison, massacred all the
European residents set FIRE TO public build
ings and the next day reused the neighbor-
ing city, Delhi, which the rebels seized
Then through all the valley Of the Ganges
The rebellion spread. In nine or ten places
there were massacres Of women and chill
dren.
The annals OF war contain no deeds more
thrilling than those Of Delhi, Lucknow and
Cawnpore; nor modern warfare any horrors
to surpass Mana sahibs massacres at
Cawnpore, while British history can enroll
among its most inspiring names the com
manders, Nicholson, Sir Henry Lawrence,
Havelock, Outram and Sir John Campbell.
Upon the native side, for instance there
stands out the picturesque figure of the
Rance of Jhsnsi who died fighting at the
head of its troops.

now the most illustrious survivor, was not
suppressed until Aprfl 1S5e

ATTACK ON BELGIAN KING
Newspapers of Kingdom Are Jealous
of FavOrs shown Men from
America.

BRUSSELS May IL Especial. 1.-THE po-
litical agitation in Belgium is steadily de-
veloping into a striking movement against
King Leopold.
Ever since he participated in the move
ment giving the great American capitalists
an entry into the Congo region he has
found himself compelled to explain mat
ters, He has been forced to do what no
European monarch has been forced TO do
before-he has practically been obliged to
submit to being interviewed by American
newspaper men, and this has brought
about something OF a feeling OF jealousy,
to say the least, so far as the local news
papers are concerned. At any rate. scarcely
a day passes that the Belgium newspapers
do not attack the king. The political
groups Of the opposition are holding meet
ings and passing significant votes Of dis
approval concerning the withdrawal by his
majesty OF the mining law

CABINET MEETING is LONG
Ohio Politics said 20 Have Been the
Chief Subject of Dis
cuasion.

WASHINGTON, May 11.--Todays cab
met meeting. which was postponed from
yesterday, lasted from II to AS O'Clock.
an unusually long time. II is believed
that the political situation as affected by
conditions In Ohio was thoroughly consid-
cred None OF the members would say
that It was not. Each one asked about
the meeting said 1t did not relate par
ticularly to business in his department.
The coming conference Of republican state
leaders at Columbus on May II Is causing
great deal Of interest in administration
circles, and from remarks made by a cab
inet officer after the meeting today the
inference is that this came up for large
share OF discussion, The position Of the
Taft people from what a member OF the
cabinet said. is believed TO be that the
presidency and the senatorship In Ohio
should be considered separately, Secretary
Taft declined to talk on tho subject
