A NEW STATE

The Boise Capital News, whose
publisher, according to the court
records. mortgaged himself to Jim
Brady, chairman of the republican
state committee, two years ago, then
attempted to fool its readers by
claiming to be a democratic paper,
but jumping when Jim pulled the
string. has gone wild over the fact
that the Press favors the formation
OF new state out OF parts Of Idaho,
Washington and Oregon. In a
double column plea editorial its edi-
tor exposes his Ignorance by calling
US q secessionist and all sorts of
names. He shows his fear of a reali-
Eation Of the move to create a new
state by the abuse he Injects into
his personal attack. The Press sug
gested that TO accomplish the object.
30 far as Idaho IL concerned, we
needed only the consent OF the Nor
mons, and showed where II would

ration comes, 1t will be done legally
and not by secession, as the deluded
mortal who Stops over the editorial
columns OF the News seems to have

the only one talking secession and II
he loves the Mormons as he says
he does, we do not see why he should
object to making his church the
absolute dictator of state politics by
getting rid of the troublesome north
ern counties. The Press cares moth
Ing about his insane rantings and
personal abuse, but will continue the
agitation OF a new state until 1t Is
an accomplished fact. That Is one
right we have without asking the
Mormon editor OF the Capital News
what we shall do. II II Is treason.
as he says, TO advocate the admis-
sion OF new state into the union.
then we plead guilty to treason and
shall continue to commit the crime
until our object is accomplished. The

tlous and We can not account for II

WEALTH HIDDEN IN OLD TABLE.
Problem California Woman Left for
Administrator to Solve.

Cunningly hidden in a secret recep-
tace deftly carved in the leg of an an
tique table, the fortune Of the late Mrs.
Jessie Fremont Dietsch of San Fran
cisco, relative of the noted pathfinder,
Gen. John c. Fremont, was found re-

tor, w. J. Hynes. The neatly fastened
little bundle give up bank book show
ing deposits of $4,000, a costly collection
of time honOred jewelry and countless
shares in wildcat concerns worth their
waste paper value.
The discovery of the effects of the err
ratio woman of historic lineage ends a
search that Hynes and his men pursued
for several days with great earnestness.
When Mrs. Dietsch died, on April %,
alone and in seclusion, her effects were
taken charge of by the public admins
traitor in the absence of any near rela-
tives. The officers were informed that
the old woman was possessed of great
wealth and the stories came from such
reliable sources that it was deemed adj
visable to make complete search of
the premises.
With this end in view Hynes and his
assistants strained every effort to locate
the hidden treasure. Every article in the
house was overturned and thoroughly
searched without avail. Even the car
pets and tapestries were ripped open in
the hope that they would yield some of
the glittering gold which the aged recIuse
was supposed to possess.
Just as Hynes was about to abandon
the search he accidentally knocked off
the hollow leg of an ancient table. In a
cleverly contrived cache the public ad-
mnistrator spied an old wallet. Opening

HUNTING THE RHINOCEROS.
He Is the Deadliest Foe That the Ivory
Hunter Has to Meet

''To my mind. rhinoceros hunting is the
most dangerous of all hunting, bar
none" says Berkeley Hutton, in Every
body's. Il have had a worse time with
rhinos than with lions, elephants, Loop
ards, or buffalo. The beast seems pos
sessed Of a sort of devilish cunning; you
can't fool him as you can an elephant,
nor intimidate him as you can a hon.
Unless aroused, he is timid and nervous
during the day, and particularly so when
alone. But at night he seems to lose
absolutely all fear of man. He does not
wait to be attacked, but has an unpleas-
ant habit of charging anything he sees IN
the shape of an enemy, as soon as he
sees it-and his sight is remarkably keen.
Besides, like the elephant, the rhinocer-
os can, when he wants to, show a speed
that is nothing short of marvellous, when
one considers his huge and clumsy bulk.
| have known cases where a rhinO got
sight of a hunter and deliberately stalked
him, coming upon him before the man
had an idea that he was anywhere in the
vicinity. And he always dies fighting; l
have never known a rhino, however badly
wounded, to try bolt for safety. Once
you rouse him, you must kill him, or he'll
kill you, if he can get you"

Mistake of the Farm.

One of the greatest mistakes farmer
or any one else in business makes is in
trying to secure a luxurious living and
q lot Of fun out of a very small bust
ness. Aside from the fostering of I'M
necessary habits, expenses are incurred
which are sufficient to meet the de-
mands of much larger business. Cut

The farmer who takes pride in his
business has the same encouragement
and advantage over competitors, who
lock the snap and sentiment, that the
earnest. progressive man in all other
callings has. The man who succeeds
in farming as well as those in the minor
professions, must throw his very life
into the work in which he is engaged
This applies to farming with great

Wide Tires Needed.

Every farmer needs one or two low
wheeled, wide-tired wagons on the
farm. They are the most convenient
for every kind of work in which
wagon is used, especially for hauling
manure, filling the siIo, hauling grain,
corn fodder, etc. A wide-tired wagon
hauls easily and does not cut up the
land, and also saves much back-aching
labor in loading and unloading ma
nure, seed grains, wood, hay, straw,
etc. If one already has high-wheeled
wagons outright, there are many firms
manufacturing wide-tired wheels that
will fit any wagon. They cost but a
few dollars, and are one of the best in
vestments any farmer can make.-Wis-

WHERE THEY PICK UP FISH.
One Way of Making Good Catches in
South Carolina

E. D, Smith, A. H. GasQue, c and A.
Hugh Hines went fishing near Efing-
ham yesterday where 4 creek runs into
Lyncbes river. They had fine sport and
caught los of the finest red breasts in
the country.
Fishing down there is done with the
hands. All you have to do is TO feel
under the logs and in the stump holes
and pull out the fish. 1t is Characteristic
of the red breast, we are told. not TO
leave their hiding place. They stick so
close to it that one can literally pick
them out of the water with the hands.
These gentlemen had fine fun. They
caught some shad, but they were poor,
except one, and We're put back into the
water. One snake was killed.
The only bad thing about fishing this
way is the fact that there are some
snakes under the logs. and if by chance
the fisher gets his hands on Il moccasin
there is generally something doing Mr.
johnson, who lives in that section. inter
viewed snake the other day in some
trash where red breasts were hiding.

Short Suggestions.

To cover the pan in which fish is
cooking will make the flesh soft.
All lard to fry fritters and doughnuts
must be very, very hot before putting
in the batter.
Black lead mixed with vinegar will
be found to give a specially good polish
to the kitchen stove.
Rub over new tinware with lard and
thoroughly heat it in the oven before
using it, for thus it is protected from
rust.
When cleaning knives add a little
carbonate Of soda to the bathbrick on
the board, for then they will polish
much quicker.
A neglected CRATE, or one which has
been red hot. should be rubbed over
with a cut raw potato before it is black
loaded. The result will be a brilliant
polish.
Ink stains on silver or plated articles
may be removed with a paste made of
chloride of lime and water. This should
be left on for a little while and then
washed off in warm water.
If, when using lemon for fiavoring
you need only half one, put the other
half on a plate and cover with a glass
tumbler. This excludes the air and pre-
vents it from drying up or getting
moldy.

Protein for Pigs.

Alfalfa is a heterogeneous roughage.
Pigs have only one stomach, and this
a comparatively small one, therefore
they are not as well adapted to eating
as are ruminants; consequently it goes
without saying that it is more than
likely that the young growing pig will
not obtain enough protein for maxi
mum growth from a ration made up of
alfalfa and corn. Nevertheless alfalfa
is one of the best sources of protein
for pigs that can be had and should
be used to the greatest extent. When
alfalfa is fed in the form of hay it
may be given to the pigs in racks. If
they are accustomed to eating alfalfa
in this form they will eat a consid-
cradle quantity of it, but more will be
eaten if it is chopped fine and then
steamed or scalded and mixed with
finely ground corn into thick slop.-

Canned Peaches.

Pare, cut in half and stone, taking
care not to break the fruit; drop each
piece in cold water as soon as it is
pared. The large, white, freestone
peaches are incest for this purpose.
Firmness Of texture is a desideratum
The fruit should be ripe, but not soft.
Allow heaping tablespoonful of sugar
to each quart of fruit, scattering it be-
tween the layers. Fill your kettle and
heat slowly to a boil. Boil three min
utes, just to assure yourself that every
piece of fruit is heated through Can
and seal. 1t is safe to put a cupful
of water in the bottom of the kettle be-
fore packing it with fruit, lest the lower
layer should burn.
