DANGEROUS $ Divine.

Drowning Is quicker death than
most people suppose. Insensibility Is
said to begin In about one minute, and
fatal Inconsistencies generally super
venes In the neighborhood Of two min
utes. Few even practiced divers can
remain under water more than a min
ute and half, and 1t is generally fatal
to remain beneath the surface longer
than that At Navarino, where there
are many expert divers, who plunge
into the sea after sponges, not one was
found who could remain under water
for two minutes. In the Red sea the
Arab divers generally remain down
one and a quarter minutes, while at
Ceylon the pearl fishers can seldom
stay below for even a minute. There
Is case on record at Falmouth where
q diver had descended eighty feet and
on giving the signal was drawn up
slowly. 1t was two minutes before he
reached the surface Blood ran from
his ears and nose, and he was insensi-
bic. He died without speaking In
sensibiiity, however, does not always
Involve death, for In many cases a per-
son may be resuscitated by the use Of
energetic measures. London Saturday

DECISION IN THE MITCHELL CASE
Tried Before Judge Crisp. Rendered
Monday.

The case Of the Henry Voght Ice
Machine Co. versus Thomas f. Mitch
ell reached a conclusion Yesterday
when Judge Charles r.. Crisp, before
whom 1t was tried several weeks ago
rendered decision. The court award
ed Mr.. Mitchell damages in the sum of
$433.59, and at the same time gave
judgment in favor of the plaintiff COM
pany against Mitchell in the sum of
IS. O24 81. The trial Of this case has
occasioned considerable local interest
owing to its nature and the fact that it
has been in the courts for some time.
The facts in the case are generally we'll
known, and it haa been stubbornly
contested from the beginning, The
plaintiff company was represented by
Messrs Ellis, Webb & Ellis and Messrs
Lane & Maynard. while Messrs f. A
Hawkins and w. A. Dodson repres-
ented Mr.. Mitchell.

TO SPEAK TO THOSE

MR.. UPSHAW WANTS THEM AT
MEETING TONIGHT
He Will Address the Young Ladies
in Afternoon at First Baptist
Church.

The young ladies of Americas will
be the special guests of honor at the
revival services at the First Baptist
church this afternoon at $3.50 O'Clock.
Rev. William d. Upshaw. the noted
evangelist, will address them at that
time. Miss Kate Gloer will render
several of her beautiful solos. En-
ployers are requested to allow lady en-
ployees, to as great an extent as pos
sible, to attend this special service.
Tonight Mr.. Upshaw will speak to
people who think, and those who
think they think 1t is needless to say
that the address will be an especially
interesting one. 1t is probable that
those who come late will find it impos-
sible to secure seats.

Many Cases Were Made Against pLi-
quor Sellers.
Savannah, Ca, March 25.-The
Savannah, police renewed their ac-
tivity Sunday, and the result was that
several places where liquor was being
sold were put on the docKets.
1t is expected that sensations may
arise from some of the cases Not
only were one or more places where
liquor was being sold in violation of
the Sunday law pulled, but the police
went further than the alleged blind
tigers in operation three miles or
more from the city thought they could
go.
These places have been operation,
it is alleged, for years, and they have
been immune for some reason. They
were operating without license of any
sort, It is said, being unable to Sc
cure them under the laws.
Quantities of liquors were carried
away from the places chat were brok-
en- up.

You are here on this occasion, /
understand it, to compare notes, TO
talk together, and, as was the custom
of the tribes of old, to feast, that is,
to eat and 10 drink, and especially
drink. And | wish to advise you that
Pocatello has the best drinking water
in the world. Right in front of the
mayor office we have erected foun-
tain. and our boys will take you to
that fountain, and they will also take
you several other places for refresh
ments, for we intend that our well
come shall not only be in words, but
reality in every sense, and it is our
earnest desire not only to make your
stay among us pleasant, but to help
you in every way we can TO benefit you
and your organization.
fToday and tonight you very prop
erly set aside for sightseeing and
pleasure. Tomorrow you will be oe-
cupied with business.
"There are MANY important matters
that will come up before you, and
while | realize that it is entirely i'm
proper for me while extending to you
a word of welcome to attempt to adj
wise You, as to how you should pro-
coed in your meetings, or to attempt
to influence any action which You
might take, yet there is a matter
which is of such serious moment, that
it may affect not only the members
Of your organization, but every editor
in the state of Idaho, and for that
reason | feel it my duty to impress
upon You the Importance of taking
definite and decisive action upon the
subject that / am about to call your
attention to, and l think that If you
ire wise, and have the interest of the
at heart, you will pass
trong resolutions, and send your pro-
est direct to the president by wire.
Not so long ago, as you are all
doubtless aware, the secretary OF the
reasury issued an order withdrawing
II one thousand dollar bills from cir
ulation. Now 1 think that was a
irect blow at the editors of the state

very beneficial TO the citizens of the
state, more so than they could pos
sibly have been TO yourselves, either
as individuals or as an association.
Your organization embraces ten
of the choicest counties of the state
of Idaho. The counties that produce
the bread and meat and the neces-
saries of life that are so essential to
the welfare and the progress of any
country.
:" You represent over forty publica-
tions that would do credit to any state
in the union. You conduct your pa
pers on plane so much higher and
broader than the average eastern pa
per, that it is a source of pride and
qualification to your readers and your
state at large.
s'You have come here to mingle TO-
gether and thus make the bond of
friendship among you more secure
and lasting and thus more beneficial
in the great work that you have to do.
You men confront great respon-
sibility. The newspaper is a welcome
visitor to every home. Your readers
look to you not only for the news Of
the day, but depend upon you for the
correctness and reliability Of that

news, and look to you, and depend on
you, for direction and guidance in
matters that affect the good and the
welfare of the community In which
you publish Your paper. You quick
en- and invigorate with new life the
freside of every home occupied by in
telligent people, for all such and profit
by having a weekly or a daily paper
in the family.
"You. of course, do not all follow
the same lines, as each one of you
has his own ideas, and in thought is
peering into the future to see what
is in store, and what is best for him
self, and also for what is best for the
community in which he lives, but you
are all working honestly, patiently
and faithfully for the same goal, and
that goal is the good of your state
and Of your country. Working many
times without due reward, either in
financial way, or proper appreciation
of the work that you do, you yet keep
on working just the same; always
never knocking, and always
ready with a smile in gladness, and
words of comfort in grief, and these
are only few of the many reasons
why that it is such pleasant task
to extend to you hearty greeting
and the freedom of our city.

the event brilliant success; while the

in making it pleasant for the visiting

noting the complete brilliance of the
event from social point Of view.
Owing to the unavoidable absence

toward he success Of the

I delivered a whole-hearted address OF
welcome to the Press club.
Mayor Loux said:
Mr.. Chairman, Ladies and Gentle
men, and Members of the Press Club
g Ii is always a pleasure to address
company of people when your re-
marks begin with the word welcome
and end with welcome. Tonight |
would have you bear in mind that all
the warmth and cheer of hospitality
expressed in this word belong to you
as the guests and as the friends of our
city, and in bidding you be at home
with us we realize that the pleasure
of your visit is no small honor. The
Press club, which means the press it
self, is body of Importance. 1t is
the mouthpiece of the public; the
voice that shouts far and wide not
only the doings but the thoughts Of
men. More than this, it is to a vast
extent the moulder Of public opinion.
the old lady who declared that she
knew a report to be true because she
saw it in print, yet all of us are to
greater or less extent influenced by
this mighty organ, which with its
every issue upbuilds or tears down
public opinion.
'But we are glad to have you with
us tonight not only because Of the
of this association, but
because it is seldom that we, the peo-
pie. have the privilege of meeting face
o face and shaking the hands of those
who hold so important position in
he upbuilding and prosperity of the
in which we live. You,
with whom ii is so necessary to the
growth and welfare of our state that
ve should be in perfect harmony. And |
Why is this harmony essential7 Be
.ause the people need fair representa-
ion: because the press must have the
confidence of its readers. Without |
pstice and liberality on the part of |
he press the sacred rights Of indi-
-iduals. as well as the cause of civic
righteousness itself, are endangered.
Without this same justice and hber-
lity the press in turn loses the respect
nd confidence of the people; but with
armony and the best of good fellow
hip at the root of the relationship be- !
ween the Press club and the people
tho support its existence, the result
an be only happiness and prosperity
or all.
s'In behalf of the citizens of Poca-
lilo. and in the name of all here who
cad from your press, I bid You a
earty welcome. ;"
