OK Bow Man Shot.

Payette. July 17-This afternoon
while out with a surveying crew,
w. ID. Chaffee, a brother-in-law OF
the millionaire Mainland brothers
of Oshkosh, Wis, was accidentally
shot in the abdomen with %
caliber longbarrelled revolver and
may die before he can be taken to
a hospital. Physicians will leave
with him on tonight's train for
Boise, but grave doubts are enter
tanned whether he will reach that
city alive. Mr.. Chaffee was in
the habit of carrying the pistol
with him to shoot small game. A
jackrabbit was scared up this after
noon and he handed the gun over
to one of his fellow surveyors to
take shot at the bunny. In some
way the gun was discharged and
he bullet entered Mr.. Chafee's
abdomen just trifle below and to
he left of the stomach. He was
)rought TO his home in this city |

On the street the other day, sew
eral men were discussing the abil-
ity of the Methodists to raise
money, when Senator Wayman
told this story on Sherman King
of Boise, who is now living on a
Carey Act tract of land on the
bench:
''Mr. King was being initiated
into lodge. and was occupying
seat on an electrical chair, when
the presiding officer stopped the
initiatory exercises and announced
that inasmuch as the lodge had
been to considerable expense in
buying new regalia, a collection
would be taken up to clear the
debt.
"Those who will give $40 please
stand up"
The current was turned on the
chair occupied by King and a col
lection of electrical needles pierced |
the bosom of his pants. He was
full of grit, however, and though |
the pain was intense. he refused |
to rise.

THE VALUE OF IDEAS AND AID.
VERTISING.

Every once in a while we heal
Of some party who happened tc
think of some little convenience
that people generally wanted and
who had the nerve to push it in the
way of advertising, finally getting
rich out of the invention. Here,
for example, is this man Pearsoll
of New Jersey. who less than 10
wears ago was out of job, no
n.ouey in sight. 1t was up to him
10 do something and do it right
away. He thought of the cheap
pattern, persuaded a friend who
had little money to back him in a
small way and commenced to adj
vertise. After while the But
tericks, who had been doing all the
pattern business began to take no.
tice that this new man was cutting
under them and they proposed to
buy him out. Pearsoll was smart
enough to sell. Today be is on
Easy street worth million.
This Pearsoll business is just a
sample. 1t shows that the man
who has a good idea aud then
nerve enough to push it has the
world coming his way. This is
a pleasant thing to contemplate in
a general way, because it shows
that there are plenty of opportuni-
ties scattered round if we only
knew how to take advantage of
them. This iact is not of so much
benefit to the most of us as it might |
seem to be however, because we
don't get to the front with an as
sortment of new, fresh ideas that
the people need in their business.
Some person gets out simple in
vention, the world needs it and the
man who thought of it makes a
fortune, builds himself a palace,
buys yacht and automobile and
fares sumptously every day, while
other men who had as good
chance apparently, have hard work
