Judge Price Dies
Prominent Idaho JuriSt
Dies While on Visit TO
Salt Lake City.

Judge Lyttleton Price is dead. This
is an announcement that viii be re-
ceived with sorrow and surprise by
many people who, during his long and
active life in this state, had learned TO
love and admire him. Judge Price
came TO Idaho many years ago aud set
tied in Haley for the practice Of his
profession. During these years he
stood at the head Of his profes-
sion as keen lawyer whose accurate
judgment was always to be relied upon.
In 1903 he was elected judge of the 4th
judicial district and served in that ca
pacity through two terms. The traits
Of character that had made him a great
lawyer also made him a great judge.
Judge Price was a man Of such pecu-
liar disposition that he made but few
intimate personal friends. It was ex-
tremely difficult to get close enough TO
his real self to learn TO know him as
a friend. But to those who did learn
him as z friend he was constant and
true and warm hearted.
As a trial Judge the evil doer who
was brought into his court never learned
to admire the judge, for he punished

HUNTING MORE TROUBLE.
ShOshOnites Want Explanation Of
New Variable Time Card.

A number of Shoshone people are
looking for little more trouble this
week than they already have. They
had planned to go west on No. 3,
Wednesday morning, the train that is
scheduled for $40. Arriving at the
depot at that time, after a long vigil 70
get up and dressed for their departure,
they were told that the train was two
and one-half hours late, and the thus
amended time was so chslked up on the
bulletin board. Several of the travellers
went back to their homes TO await the
belated train. But in a few minutes it
came spinning through, late only half
an hour instead of two and one-half
hours. and the travellers stayed in Sho-
shone that day.
Under the new Igaho state law re-
quiring railroads to give accurate notice
of the arrival of trains, such case
would subject some one to a heavy fine
or Imprisonment. There is talk among
some Of the injured parties of starting
prosecution to test the law, and see if
there is not legal redress in such
cases.

COYOTES IN SHOSH0NE.
Expert Prairie Thieves Decimate
Chicken Yards.

The chicken fanciers of Shoshone
would take It kindly if the state of Ida
no in its benefcence would station a
few of the official wolfers around the
town to guard against the depredations
of the coyotes. C. R. Wheeler, who
lives in the west part of town, started
in the season with a flock of about 400
chickens. They were blooded fowls.
with pedigrees as long as a chapter
from the Arabian horse register But
that did not make them any less pala-
table for the coyotes. The night-howl
ing ghosts of the prairies have deeima-
ted his flock by 100 birds, and ne begins
to fear that he viii not have Christ
mas left if they keep on. He has been
afraid to use his long range. high-pow-
cred rifle on them lest a chance shot
should do some other damage out over
the prairie, but on Sunday he peppered
one coyote with a good load of No. ,
shot from his trusty 10-gaIge gun. He
had no buckshot cartridges, but ne has
them now, and Mr.. Coyote viii do well
to steer clear of the irate chicken fan
cier.
Coyote concerts have become so com
mon that those who live anywhere near
the outskirts of town have almost for
gotten to notice them, until the marau-
ders carry off few chickens, or steal
a ham from the wood shed, or do some
other such depreciation. There seem
to be more coyotes coming in to share
in the prosperity of Lincoln cotnty than
there are human settlers, which is say
ing a lot. as everybody knows.

BEATEN AT HIS OWN GAME.
California Woman Defeats IdahO'S
Most Talented Spieler.

Bob McCOllum met with a serious
accic e It We terday and the services of
two doctors were required for an hour
or two to bring him too, and it was
feared for awhile that the services Of
the coroner might be necessary.
Bob started from Shoshone with a
party of friends to jerome. In the
party was a Mrs. DuFoiI. representing
the Sunset Magazine as its travelling
correspondent. Bob is a professional
gallant, especially when it comes to
entertaining the ladies, so he began
telling Mrs. DuFoil of the wonderful
productions of Twin Falls county. He
stated that even as mnch as 80 bushels
of grain had been raised TO the acre
on volunteer crop. The lady was
game so she proceeded TO tell Bob of
field she had found in her travels that
had been planted for 16 years and had
brought volunteer crops each year. one
year making an averageOf so bushels TO
the acre. Bob gsllently lifted his
chappeau to the lady and changed the
tide of conversation to hunting and
fishing stories.
The lady again met him by say
ing that recently she was at place in
Oregon where a stranger asked a ma
tive if that locality was a good place TO
hunt, and the native replied that he
really did hot know whether it would
be called good place or not, but that
the day before he had started out hunt
ing and had gone but short distance
when he saw seven ducks flying and
near them five geese. Just as he was
getting ready to shoot he looked down
to the ground and saw a snake. This
caused him to jump, and in doing so the
gun went off and the shot killed all the
ducks and geese, the ramrod fell down
and killed the snake, the gun kicked
him into the river ard when they pulled
him out his boots were full Of fish. At
this Bob fell into faint and it was
with difficulty that he was revived.
Later-It is reported just as we go to
press, that Bob is able to sit up and
take few sips of matted milk

Get Water Works
Jerome to Have a Com.
pIete Water System by
October Opening.

Piping has been taken to Jerome for
the water works to be put in there. The
plant will be installed, sufficient for all
this years needs, by the time of the
opening, October 1st. Water will be
pumped from the new company well, by
a 1O-horse electric motor. The water
is Of the finest quality, from well 1862
feet deep.
The safe for the jerome band arrived
Yesterday and was taken out to the
new city. The safe weighs 45O0 pounds
and it was with considerable difficulty
that it was loaded from the car to the
wagon that was to carry it. The
wagon freight on the safe from Sho-
shone to Jerome was $50 Along with
the safe was the door to the bank vault,
which weighed 26OO pounds. The door
was much more easily handled than the
safe.
Some enthusiasts have asserted that
10000 people would attend the opening
October 1st. While this estimate is be-
lieved to be high enough, there is every
Indication that it viii be the greatest
