D. J. PheIan Had No Trouble
 Getting a Clerk.

Dennis J. Phelan, who conducts a grocery store at 27S Baldwin street, always had q keen conception of the value of advertising, but he never had it brought home to him very for cibly until the other day, when he wanted clerk and inserted an item to that effect ill the Democrat which brought him so many applicants that he had his choice of thirty four inside of an hour after the paper was is- sued, some of them calling upon him so unexpectedly he inquired how they heard he wanted clerk. thinking that the paper was not off the press at the time. Why" said Mir phelnn to a reporter ''they come from all parts of the town, not the crowded districts alone, remember, but away out East, and from Town Plot; also the northern section. the west end and Simonsville, before l knew 1t l had thirty-four all bright. clever ap- bearing fellows, but the trouble was many of them lived too far away to accept position with me and stop at. their own homes nights. When thought that thing over I concluded that you people must have paper in every residence in the city and the system of getting it to them must he up-to-date I don't see how under heaven so many could have read that little advertisement and then found their way up here ill such remark ably short time"

 In the list of players submitted by the managers of the City Baseball league. that of John Edmunds ap- pears twice. The Pastimes have him down as a member of their club, while Manager Michael Madden of the B. A.. c. expects him to don a Brooklyn uniform, and naturally his name is on the Brooklyn list.
 The plans are all finished and in short time work will be started on the new building which is to be erected at the corner of North Willow and Ridgewood streets for R. c. Walker As yet the Brooklyn drug gist has not decided whether he will open another drug store in the new block, which will have three stores. It was somewhat of surprise to Ithe polo rooters in this section to see the All Brooklyn team defeated last evening by the Company c quintet. If the boys from this district had pulled out victory. they would have been almost sure of the pennant but it looks now as if they would have to play some fine polo to land on top. Tonight they play off the tie game with the Second Wards and it should be corkingly good exhibition. When the north enders have their regular outfit on hand 1t is fast aggregation and apparently plays its best game when opposing the Brooklynites.

THE POLICE COURT.
Lucy Worden Committed to State
 School for Girls.

SCHOOl TUT ulTlSs
 Mrs Anna Crownshaw sat in the dock in the city court to-day with a boy of or years of age on her lap. The woman was charged with intoxication. which she denied. She was removed from boarding house on South Main street last night at the request of the landlady. In court to-day she said she came from Reynolds Bridge. where she had been living with her husband the past two years. He was employed in the knife shop there and he left her some months ago with fourteen chil- dren to take care of. The boy on her lap was the youngest of the lot. It seemed that she had started out to find her recreant husband, but got only. to Waterville, when she found it necessary to earn some thing. Then she came to town few days ago and has been wandering about since. She was committed to Brookside until position is found for her.
 Lucy Worden was brought down from Brookside to. answer to the charge of incorrigibility. Though on past occasions she has said her age was 1 s or 19, to-day she said 1t was Is. She was in tears. too. Her mother. Mrs Anne Blythe, said the girl will be 16 next October. She was born in West Beckett. Mass. and two years ago, on the pretense of going to Sunday school. she ran away. Mrs Blythe now lives in Tor rington, where she found Lucy. Three weeks ago the girl went home for a few hours Mrs Blythe said she was unable to control her. Lucy was committed to the state school. John Ryan was fined S5 and costs | for intoxication.
 Michael Saginrow, IT. was charged with disturbing the audience at the Jacques last evening. When Miss Emma Carus was singing the Italian song, "Mariocci," Saginrow blew loud whistle resembling the sound of steamboat gong, thus "toot toot'' accompanying the words l she's gone away" During the af- ternon performance Interruptions of this nature were quite frequent and annoying to the singer, but the dis turber escaped notice. A double watch was put on for the evening performance and the result was Saginrow's arrest.
 .Oh. you needn't make faces" said Saginrow to the officer; you did try to t'row me down stairs" Judge Burpee admonished him, say- ing he was evidently very tough boy. and imposed fine of $7 and costs with the alternative of going to jail.
 William Brumaghin, a plumber. | was fined $5 and costs for putting in a bath tub at William Dillon's house at 202 South Elm street without having obtained permit. Bruma- ghin said he did not know 1t was necessary to take out permit for a small job and the court. after look ! ing up the ordinance. said: I find here that 1t is necessary to take out permit If you wish to turn the water on or turn 1t on.

the state, tributary to the Snake
river, between two and three mil
lion acres of fertile land which
will produce one good crop of
grain by the process of dry farm
ing. Inote that the above fig
ures do not contain all the irri-
gated and irrigable lands Of the
state, as the watersheds of the
Bear river are not included.
"There are in the state at the
present time eightcompanies who
are constructing irrigation works
which will put under water S45
thousand acres.
"The highest figure to which
intense culture has raised the
price Of land is ST, 500 per acre
this is for fruit-bearing orchard.
This price is, however, exception
ais $500 an acre would be a fair
average for this class OF land.
Sugar beet lands sell from $3.50
to 200 per acre. Values in the
future are too remote to have
any statistical value.
AS to the limit Of navigation
OF the Snake river, | would say
that Shoshone falls would be the
head Of navigation and to reach
even this point would require ex-

Wheeler and DR.. O. Gerlach, pur-
chased a tract OF one thousand
acres of land located between one
and two miles southwest Of that
city.
The land was secured lastspring
and crew Of men was immedi-
ately placed upon it to clear off
the sagebrush, ditch it and max
ing every preparation for irriga-
ton purposes. Five hundred
acres have already been cleared
and as soon as spring opens will
be planted to fruit trees. Next
year the other five hundred acres
will be set out. This will give a
one thousand acre orchard con-
tanning over one hundred thou
sand trees. 1t is estimated that
next spring there will be at least
ITO Thousand fruit trees planted
in the vicinity OF Mountainhome.

Told About Idaho's Resources

f. G. Young OF Eugene, Oregon,
who gave an address before the
Riverand Harbor Congress which
met at Washington, d. G., on the
fourth, fifth and sixth of this
month, announced that he would
discuss the subject "The Valley
OF the Columbia" during which
the congress would begiven some
idea of the vast resources of
southern Idaho.
At the request OF Mr., Young,
Colonel Allen Miller has compiled
the following from the statistics
in the office Of the bureau of inn
migration giving his knowledge
of conditions in this state and in
which he has the following to
say.
"There are under irrigation in
the Snake River valley, including
all it's tributaries, 2,4OO, 500
acres of land; and the canals at
fording water to these lands have
under them about SS7, 900 acres
uncultivated outside ofwhich are
about 100000 acres suscept-
IDLE Of irrigation ii water could
be procured.
'In the northern part Of the
state there are three counties
directly tributary to the Snake
river, viz: Idaho, Nez Perez and
Latah, which have already in
cultivation 1,27O,0O0 acres.
These counties will have wheat
surplus this year OF 100000
bushels, besides othergrains, and
will market at least 5000 head
OF cattle and one hundred thou
sand head Of swine. Thesecoun-
ties have sufficient precipitation
to produce crops without irriga-
ton.
I'm addition to the above
quantities ofland, Iestimate that
there are in the southern part of
