A DEVILS CORRAL VICTIM.

In response to a message from the
southern part of the county, DR.. H. G..
Baugh, acting coroner, went to the
Devils Corral, Dec. 9th, and held an
inquest over the body Of dead man,
found on the north bank of Snake
river in what is known as the Devil
Corral. The facts developed were
that the man was known as j. V.
Haughey, aged about fifty or fifty-five
years, and that he was hobo in Sho-
shone some time ago, and Alpha Kin
sey gave him a lift by sending him
down on his wild ranch, just above the
Great Shoshone Falls, to look after the
deer confined in the park, called the
DEVILS Corral. 1t seems that Haughey
had crossed the river in skiff he kept
for the purpose, and gone on to Twin
Falls where he had purchased some
provisions and also stock of liquor
Returning to the river he had driven
the boat up a draw we'll into the will
lows where he stepped out of the
boat and fell over on his back with his
feet in the water. Probably he fell
asleep there and died of exposure be-
fore regaining consciousness. The
body had lain there some six weeks
and had been disturbed by wild ami
mails. The doctor, with the assistance
of few men whom he was able to
summon in that lonesame spot, found
suitable spot and gave the unfortun-
ate man burial.-ShOshone Journal.

UNEXPECTED BLAST.
Powder Man On Construction Work
Receives Severe Injuries.

While at work in one of the camps
of Faris e Kesl on the Salmon, a
powder man had very narrow es-
cape from instant death Monday fore
noon. He had set off round of holes
ana one failed to explode. Thinking
that the cap had exploded, he was re-
moving the powder when in some way
the cap was set off, the charge strik-
ing him in the shoulders, head and
eyes. The man was not seriously in
jured but may have some trouble with
his eyes, but otherwise he will soon be
at work again.

Notice..

Commencing with the month of De-
cember, 1908, the monthly rate of rs
cents per inch for advertising in the
Times will be annulled and weekly
rate of 1SA cents established. The
change is made in order that when
five publications occur in a month the
Times can collect for same. After a
year and nine months OF the old rate
the Times management has discovered
that it is practically publishing four
issues each year for which no money
is received and as the printers have to
be paid and other expenses of the Of
flee for each issue, for this reason the
slight change will have to be made.
