Big Issue of Lincoln Co.
Bonds Promises TO 90
Like Hot Cakes.
$4,000 Issue of Refuading Bonds
Being Negotiated With the
Best of Results.

A large number of applications are in
for the purchase of the proposed issue
of Lincoln county refunding bonds,
which are to be sold by the county COM
missioners, June 26th.
The issue is for S2S, coo, to take up
one-tenth of the present bonded indebt-
edness of the county. These old bonds
were made to be retired in twenty years,
ten per cent each year after ten years,
and this is the first installment to be
taken up. 1t is expected the new ones
will sell at enough of a premium, 1l0 to
even 12O, to bring the real rate Of inter
est to only little above five per cent.
Another issue of S2S, 900 is to be taken
up next year in the same way, and so
on for ten years until all the old bonds
are retired for lower interest-bearing
paper.
Harry Anderson, auditor and recorder,
is using some back issues of the Journal,
giving some of the glowing truths about
Lincoln county, and also sending copies
of the Journal county map, to for the
inquirers for bonds, believing that these
optimistic publications would be worth
many dollars to the county in the way
OF inducing higher bids.

IDAHO LOOKS GOOD.
Tourist Over Whole Continent Sees
Nothing Else 30 Attractive.

r. P. Blodgett, recently from Knob
Noster,- Missouri, has rented the MIS-.
WaddeI property in the south part Of
town, and will at ence move IN TO occu-
py it. Mr.. Blodgett, who has been a
large stockman, last winter decided to
change his location, and started for a
trip TO British Honduras. Business
openings were good enough there, but
rains of 90 inches a month, and the
general unsatisfactory conditions for an
American family, brought him home
He was in Texas when there we're cy-
clones before and behind him, and the
streets Of Fort Worth were under four
feet Of water from a cloud burst. After
visiting other states, including several
in the south, and Colorado and Wy
oming, he decided that after all the
Journal which he had read assiduously
for ayear, was telling the straight truth
about Idaho, 50 he hurried back home,
hacked his goods, and left on the very
first train after they could get ready.
He expects to invest somewhat in both
Shoshone and Gooding.

TOWN PROPERTY PAYS.
Jerome Lots in Demand Where
Sh0shOne Loses Out.

AS indicating the profitableness Of
town property investments in the new
towns Of Lincoln county 2 little trans
action IN jerome last week will be men
toned.
J. VI. Hale, the leading real estate
man in the metropolis Of the North Side
tract, had purchased residence lot for
his own use some months before but
another man needed it for immediate
use and so he parted with it, at a profit
Of Is per cent over face value but the
profit over the cash invested was 300
per cent.
1t is hardly for the best interests Of
Shoshone that five families have passed
through the city for Jerome and other
towns because they were unable to rent
houses suitable for their purposes. They
were anxious to remain here and in
prove the excellent school opportunities
afforded but they did not wish to build
and so moved on to build in the newer
towns on the North Side tract. What
Shoshone needs is new buildings and
choice residence property most Of all.

up TO this time. which is naturally a
pleasant surprise to the huStling pro-
prietors.

N. P. Trains Must Travel Through

that had come south from Butte through
Pocatello to the coast. The Northern
Pacific and the Great Northern tracks

through western Montana, by the floods
which are without precedent IN that
state. All over Montana, too, there
have been serious delays in traffic, caus-
ed bv the floods. Passengers who were
aboard the delayed trains through here
were four days behind their schedule to
the coast. and would De out day still
longer before reaching their destination.
None of the passengers of the train
coming this way had suffered for food.
they having always been stopped where
they could get something to eat; but
some other trains We're not SO fortunate,
and the passengers went hungry.

A BURGiAR-DEFYING SAFE.
First National Gets the Best Man.
ganese Safe Made.

The First National Bank Of Shoshone
has just installed a new safe, which
does not look as good to the safe-crack-
ing fraternity as it does to the public
with a little money to deposit.
tits the latest manganese steel safe
made by the ElyNorris Company, of
Perth Amboy, n. j., and weighs 1000
pounds. The main part Of the safe is a
solid manganese casting, 6 inches thick,
the most intensely indestructible metal
known. Drills and acids and all such
ordinary methods Of attack can not
affect it in the slightest. The door,
which is hung on trunniOns like the
breech block Of big cannon, is Of the
general interrupted screw" pattern,
being provided with six lugs which, by
turning the whole door one-twelfth.Of
revolution, lock behind six correspond
ing lugs cast into the body of the safe.
The door is ground into place, so care
fully that it would cut hair in closing;

so as to blow the door from its position.
There are three locks, of the very finest
kind, which would with stand any kind
Of an explosion on the outside Of the
safe, and would work perfectly under
any conditions of fire, water or explo-
sion. They can be set for 76 hours, or
a little more than three days. While
the bank already had good time-lock
safe, the new one was felt to be good
as the banks business is
growing steadily, and the country is
going ahead so fast that additional Sc

With the banks well known business
and safety, the depOsitors

BEAR LAKE TROUT EGGS.
First Time They Have Been Col
Iected for Propagation.

State Game Warden Stephens. with
Chief Deputy By. Livingston, were on
the road up the branch, Tuesday, with
125, 900 eggs of the Bear Lake trout to
take to the state fish hatchery at Hay
Spur. They have been having about
as strenuous work as anything this side
of the Rocky mountains to collect these
eggs. which are believed to be the very
first ever collected for propagation pur-
poses.
The Bear Lake trout is distinct W.
riety of deep-water trout, that grow to
a size of 20 pounds or even more. 1t is
found only in Bear Lake. This body of
water, being very deep, as well as high
in altitude, is cold, and the fish are so
firm as are ali cold water fish as TO be
almost crystalline They are believed
to be especially well adapted to the
other lakes of Idaho, Alturas, Payette,
Coeur d'Alene, Pend d'Orielle and the
other fine bodies of water through the
mountains. Bear Lake is several hum
dred feet deep, as are most OF the
other mountain lakes, and the fish are
not easily lured into shallow water
where they can be taken for spawning.
The state fish and game department be-
lieves that this magnificent fish can be
proftabIy transplanted to the other
lakes of the state. and furnish food and
sport that has never before been enjoy
ed in those places.
The department has just finished
shipping $50. 600 trout fry to Cassia, Bear
Lake, Boise and Canyon counties, about
equal numbers to each, for the smaller
streams in those counties. 1t is the be-
lief that by next year, the streams will
have more trout than they have had for
years, for all the known and anticipated .
increase in the sale of fishing licenses.

Ketchum, in 1885, when he held this hon.
or. He was the first to hold the Office,
however, as his brother-in-law, Al. Com

Mr.. Comstock died as the result of Sc
we're exertions in fighting a forest fire
near Ketchum, and Mr.. GOoding, being
vice chancellor, succeeded to the higher

being under the jurisdiction of Utah.

Memorial Services at the Episcopal
Church Sunday Evening.

Memorial services by the Shoshone
Camp, Modern Woodmen of America,
were held in the Episcopal church, Sun
day evening, Rev. S. w. Creasey deliv-
ering the address.
The Woodmen were out in force and
the house was well filed.
The beautiful and impressive cere-
monies of the Episcopal service occupied
the time preceding the memorial ad-
dress and held the audience in rapt
attention by the excellence of the music
and the sweet cadence of the responsive
readings.
The memorial sermon was character
ICED by earnestness, simplicity and
moral depth and was departure from
what is usually given on such occasions.
The fatherhood of God and the broth
erhood of man constituted the central
theme ofthe discourse, the one involving
the relation of man TO MS Maker and
the other. the relation of man to his
fellow man. In the speakers estima-
ton the Church had dwelt too persist
emily on the relation of man TO his God
and had left the brotherhood of man to
De brought about largely by fraternal
md kindred organizations. These as
yell as the Church are doing the viii of
iod and helping to bring about the
