q YEARS Ago.

Sherm Coffin has the finest bicycle
in Idaho.
About fifty Mormons are at work
on the railroad.
John brennan of Jordan Valley
was in the city last Saturday.
Anderson Cox, the lumberman of
Nampa, was in town Wednesday.
G. w. Cooper relinquished his des-
ert entry at Nampa for a consider
alton.
Will some of our subscribers bring
in load of wood. Just as good as
gold on subscriptions.
The Caldwell Tribune was awarded
the contract for printing the school
laws in pamphlet form, and the
blanks used by the Territorial Sup
erintendent.
Mr.. George Stafford met with
quite a serious accident the other
day. He was kicked in the face by
an unruly horse and has several teeth
knocked out and his face otherwise
severely injured and disfigured.
A Mr.. Miller of Georgetown, Wis,
arrived in town Thursday morning
to look at tn ecountry. He came here
through the instrumentality of DR..
Maxey who, by the way, has been
the means of bringing five persons
to this country, and several families
from Marcus, Iowa. will locate here
this fall. US.
The passenger was late last Mon
day morning, and the cause thereof
gave rise to great deal of specula-
ton. The real cause, however, was
not ascertained until about noon. 1t
seems that careless switchman had
left the switch at Nampa open and
the train took bee line for Boise
City. Hence the delay.
Cooper and Packard took q bust
ness trip to Nampa last Sunday.
Packard says Nampa is noted for its
deep wells, and to illustrate the fact
tells the following truthful story,
which is supported by Cooper's az
fidavit. They dropped a stone down
well to judge the depth by the time
it took in falling. After they had
dropped they walked leisurely to the
saloon about two blocks away, drank
couple of beers, and got back just
in time to hear the stone strike the
water. Coming from any other
source we would want proof before
believing this story, but coming as it
does, we cheerfully accept it as gos-
pei. There are times when we are
like George Washington, we cannot
tell lie-even when we hear one.
The safe for the bank arrived
Wednesday. It is dandy burglar
proof, time lock. solid steel safe and
weighs 1000 pounds. Ranchers,
stockmen and others can now deposit
their bags of gold In a place much
safer than burying it. Hitch up
some day and bring in a load. The
Tribune has contracted for a room
to keep the press.

OOLGROWERSMEET

President F. G. Stanford. after the
meeting stated that the dates for
these sales have been definitely set,
pending weather conditions. In the
event that shearing at some points
should be delayed by bad weather
the sale dates will be postponed, and
due notice published in the columns
of the papers,"
He stated that it had been EAR
ranged that not less than 10 repre-
sentatives Of the eastern wool firms
would attend each one Of these sales,
and he believes that this is the best
opportunity of disposing of the clip
at this time, feeling that the pres
ence of SO many buyers will enable
the wool growers to realize the best
market value for their clips under
present conditions"
Mr.. Stanford said there will be
a special meeting of all members of
the wool growers association in Boise
June 4, and the place of meeting will
be in the city hall at 10 a. m. He was
not willing to state specifically the
purpose of this meeting further than
to- say that it was of the utmost i'm
portance to all wool growers, and he
strongly urged that every member of
the association who found it possible
should attend. s.E
Such members of the executive
committee as were In session yester-
day conferred with number Of rep
resentatives of wool houses in regard
to the disposal of the clip and it was
decided to arrange for the first Sc
ries of sales days at the places and
dates mentioned above.
Mr.. Sanford desired to be under
stood that the executive committee
had not in any manner whatever OBJ
ligated the wool growers association
or the members thereof, to dispose Of
thir woods at these sales, except as
their personal judgment dictates.
At Pendleton, Oregon, wool sales
were recently closed. There wool
brought between 6 and 10 and 3-8
cents and 100000 pounds were
sold. It is xepected the prices at the
sales in this state will not differ any
from those paid at Pendleton. Buy
ers who were there and others will
be here soon to join the few who have
been in this section several weeks,
and with them attend sales for which
dates have been set.
Scott Anderson yesterday shipped
three cars of wool from Boise to Chi
cago to be stored and to await bet
ter prices.

What Audisness aslisxs.

The light suddenly went out during
one of my performances In Waterbury.
A panic was in prospect However, I
shouted out: Ladies and gentlemen,
I am about to perform a most marvel
GUS trick. have here a lemon; but,
Of course. you can't see 1t. am about
to cut 1t in two and bring out Of Il
an elephantr'
The audience settled down. SQuashl
I cut the lemon. "And now" I said,
'the elephant has gone 1t has walked
or the st.ge. But, of course, you can't
see 1t, bat that doesn't matter"
Sure enough, there was heard a slow,
shufiiing sound quite appropriate, al
though 1t was made by the fat stage
manager, who was shutting across the
boards in his slippers. The light re-
turned. there was much applause. and
all was well. The next day Q man
stopped me in the street and said he
considered that trick the most marvel
GUS he had ever seen and would I be

NEST OF EAGLES.
II Was Discovered on the Famous
Franksnstein Ledge. Crawford
Notch.

More eagles have been seen In and
about the White Mountains ia New
Hampshire recently than since early
pioneer days and the only nest OF the
national bird known in New Hamp-
shire was discovered on the crest OF
the famous Frankenstein ledge in
Crawford Notch.
The species is the bald eagle of the
mountains, from which the tradition
al emblem of the United States was
designed but it is not CARRIED so ex-
tenslVely in trousers as represented
by artist Saint-Gauden's bird on the
new gold coins, ,s
Certain portions of the White Noun
tains afford a natural hahitation for
the eagle. the numbers of which have
largely Increased since the stringent
game laws Of the state prevented the
general rifle shooting which once pre-
vailed, especially throughout the
north country" H2H
The nest of Frankenstein ledge was
located by men in the employ OF
Charles II, Mofeys OF Bemis. They
were attracted by a pair OF, large
4 eagles flying about In evident anger
h and distress, and they searched for the
nest till they found IT in cleft in
( the. rocks on the highest point OF the
cliff There was an almost perpendic-
ular rise on all sides TO reach the
break. and the birds evidently suppos-
ed the site to be beyond molesta-
tion,s
Several younger eagles were seen In
the vicinity but they were all beyond
the age requiring the fostering care
OF the older birds. and hustled across
the notch TO get away from the In
truders.
The older birds. however. hung
about the lumbermen and showed evil
dence. of a Willingness to take part
In a mixup II too serious danger
threatened their home in the rocky
cleft.
The men got near enough the, nest
to note the general characteristics
OF its construction, but no attempt
was made to despoil II. and those who
have since been to the spot, say that
the birds have returned to their abode
and are now living In comfort.
The locality of the nest is almost
inaccessible, except. to the most hard
ened woodmen and mountain. climbers
but 1t may easily be found by those
who have the foTtitude to attempt
the climb up Frankenstein ledge,

birds have been shot In northern New,
