Something New In Miles.

The Village Improvement Society
of Blackfoot is taking up the meri-
torious work Of improving and beau
tifying our town cemetery. 1t takes
money, courage, work, persistent ef-
fort to accomplish this. One of the
means they are employing to raise
funds is by collecting mile of pen
MES" 1t takes 16 pennies placed
side by side to make one foot in
length, and $3.50 feet to make
mile of pennies" which will make
the handsome sum of $844.80 to be
judiciously expended in this most
praiseworthy work. VIII you lend
q hand" by cutting out the card be-
low, folding 1t about piece of silver
and mail 1t to Mrs. w. A. Younie,
Blackfoot, Idaho. She is chairman
of this mile of pennies committee
and will be glad to receive this small
contribution from you.

Special Bond Election Held Recently
Makes 1t Possible for Local So
ciety to Carry On Work.
WORK WILL BEGIN
IN EARLY SPRING
The Mile of Pennies Is Being Relied
Upon for Funds to Garry On the
Good improvements.

The V. l. s. is stepping high these
days, with Joy and gladness that so
much is coming its way. The graft
flying result of the special bond cleo
ton last week, enables the town
council to give much appreciated as
sistance by purchasing the cemetery
in the name Of the town of Black
foot. Interest is awakening both in
town and among those who have
moved to other points, leaving loved
ones resting in the cemetery here.
They too, have long regretted the
existing conditions of the grounds
and are now beginning to feel a
sense of security that beauty and Or
der is to take the place of chaos and
disorder. Contributions are being
received from them, and should this
reach the ear and eye of any who
have not responded, we hope they
will at once yield to the impulse and
send as liberal a contribution as cir
cumstances will suggest. The presi-
dent, Mrs. Geo. Gagon and her as
sistant officers, are arranging for
work to begin as early in the spring
as the weather will permit. The
business men are interested and are
ready to cooperate. The town coun-
Gil is ready to advise and each mem
Der feels a personal interest. The
"nile of pennies" is being relied
upon for funds. AS not one cent Of
the full amount that constitutes this
mile of pennies will be appropriat-
ed until the entire length is secured,
each person is requested to make a
small contribution now, at once. Re-
member 1t is 16 pennies side by side
for a foot, $3.50 feet to a mile which
will add up to the munificent sum
Of $844.S0. Lend a handv

DISASTER AT CLEVELAND.
Nearly Two Hundred School Children
Perish In Flames--NO Means of
Escape.

One of the most heartrending dis
asters in the history of the United
States occurred at Cleveland. Ohio,
Wednesday. Fire started In one OF
the public school buildings at Collin
wood, a suburb, containing nearly
four hundred pupils ranging from 6
to Is years of age. It-seems that the
teachers bravely stayed at their posts
and did all in their power to prevent
the tragedy but to no avail. The
flames spread rapidly and owing to
faulty construction Of the building,
lacking proper means OF egress, the
doors were soon blocked and scores
perished but few feet from safety.
Some escaped by back door but
more than half of the entire number
in the building were either burned to
death or trampled to death in the
mad scramble. One of the teachers
perished In the building and two or
three more were rescued so badly
injured they will probably die.

Nine Hour Law i'm Effect.

The now famous "nine-hour" law
for employees of railroads went into
effect last week,
The law is one of the most drastic
and imperative the railroads of the
country have ever been obliged to
obey, and every line in the country
is protesting AS hard as possible to
the interstate commerce commission.
The law provides that no employee
in the operating department of rail-
road can be employed for more than
nine hours. The trainmen and the
telegraphers are principally affected
by the law. In Salt Lake and
throughout the west the law affects
conditions very little, as schedules
have been in force for months which
comply with it,
The principal complaint of the
railroads is that the law will require
them to hire more operators than are
available in the country at present,
and that it will compel an expendi-
ture for these men that the roads
cannot afford under the present in
dustrial conditions.
The interstate commerce commits
sion is to hold special meeting to
b hear the employees side.

Judge Stevens Is Reversed by the
Supreme Court.

Judge J. M. Stevens in case from
Lemhi county, was reversed by the
supreme court in an opinion handed
down recently The opinion was
written by Justice Stewart and was
concurred in by Chief Justice Ailshie
and Justice Sullivan. The case was
that of Thomas K Andrews VS.. ]. M.
Moore, an action to recover upon a
written contract for the sale OF q
horse. Judge Stevens rendered de-
cision for the plaintiff, which decision
is reversed by the supreme court.
The syllabus of the opinion is as fol-
lows:
1. Where a complaint is amended
it takes the place of the original COM
plant, and the action Of the trial
court in overruling a demurrer to the
original complaint becomes OF no
consequence, and cannot be alleged
as error on appeal.
2. Where the facts are stipulated
as facts, and such stipulation shows
no liability upon the part Of the de-
fendant, it is error for the trial court
to overrule a motion for judgment on
the stipulated facts.
8. Where the facts Of case are
stipulated as facts, oral testimony
cannot be offered for the purpose
of contradicting such stipulation
