RAISE FUNDS
FOR A WELL
Mass Meeting tuesday Night
Draws Large Crowd.
OPINIONS ON THE MATTER OF
WATER SUPPLY ALL ONE WAY.
$l10O Subscribed In Few Minutes to
Dig Experimental Well Within the
TOwnsite.

The mass meeting held Tuesday to
discuss the water supply was all one
sided, like a jug handle with all of the
participants in favor of getting pure
water at whatever cost. S. H. Bolton,
D. M. Denton, Don Bryan and A. c..
Coburn were among the principal
speakers and each advocated the drill
ing of an experimental well.
After great deal of discussion on
the part of the citizens, in which no
dissenting voices were heard, popu-
lar subscription was started and in a
short time over $1100 was subscribed
toward sinking an experimental well
somewhere within the city limits
A committee of three was appointed
to solicit funds from the business men
of the city.
The question of getting water from
the source of Rock Creek was discuss
ed and found to be almost impossible
owing to the fact that nearly every
acre foot of water from the springs is
already filed upon by the ranchers in
that section.

Editor Twin Falls Times, Twin Falls,
Idaho.
Dear Sir: / notice in the Chronicle
OF February. %, an answer to my ar
ticle in your paper last week on the
saloon question. This answer is by
Mr.. P. ]. HOlahan, of our CITY,
Rather than reply to his position,
which would gladly do, think in the
interest of educating our people, and
teaching myself the other side of this
question, so that we may all know the
facts in the case, 1t would be better to
meet Mr.. Holahan in public debate,
and hereby challenge Mr. Holahan
to debate in some public hall in Twin
Falls, the arrangement for thH debate
to be made by one gentleman OF his
selection, and one by myself, and they
both to choose third to select place
and rules governing the debate, time
limit, etc., the subject to be: Re
solved, That the commercial inter ests
of our City are injured by the licensed
saloon"
This challenge is to be accepted by
Saturday, p. m., February ~. have
also written Mr.. Holahan this date, re-
gistering the letter, in order to ac-
quaint him with the subject. 1t is
only fair to him to be permitted to an
swer me fully In a public way. If he
fails to do so shall feel 1t my duty
to make further reply through the
columns of our press, but much pre-
fer to meet the gentleman face to face
as men of diverse opinions.

ROUNDUP OF
HORSE THIEVES
Three Men Escaping from Nevada
Taken at Three Creek.
PRISONERS BROUGHT TO TWIN
FALLS SUNDAY EVENING.
Sheriff Clark of Elk0 County, Nevada,
Arrives Tuesday to Take Prisoners
Back to Nevada for Trial.

Deputy Sheriff c. G. Winter, of Elko
county, Nevada, aided by two ranchers
from Owyhee county, stepped off the
eastbOund passenger Sunday evening
and delivered over three youthful
looking horse thieves to Sheriff Dyer,
who held the prisoners until Tuesday
afternoon, awaiting the arrival OF
Sheriff l.. G. Clark, of Elko, Nevada.
The prisoners waived their extradition
rights and left Tuesday night for Elko,
in company of Sheriff Clark
The manner of the capture would
read like the annals of the wild west
except that Deputy Winter added moth
ing OF the dramatic to his plain,
straightforward story which is SUBJ
stantially as follows:
While on Friday of last week, Mr..
and Mrs. Winter were EN- QUITE to the
town of Roland for their mail, in
skirting the foot hills, the keen eyed
deputy discovered three men driving
about twenty-five head of horses to-
ward the Idaho line. Owing to his
familiarity with the methods of the
horse thieves, Mr.. Winter Immediately
started toward the three horsemen,
only to have his suspicious confirmed
by the men odrering him to stop. I'm
able to get in touch with the men he
Immediately went to where Mrs. Win
! ter was waiting and told her to go for
help, while he trailed the thieves. Mrs.
Winter fortunately ran across Deputy
G. ID. Patrick of Owyhee county, who
sent out a posse to assist Mr.. Winter.
The thieves had entered into Idaho
when overtaken by the posse and made
no trouble when the seven deputies or
dered them to stop. The prisoners
whose names were Jess Coats, G. Lin
dali and Frank Walch, proved to be
young men and evidently new to the
business.
The stock which the men had
with them was recognized by Mr.. Win
ter to be the property of some of the
Nevada stockmen so that the case
against the prisoners seems complete.

A GREAT PRODUCTION.
Queen Esther As Presented BY Home
Talent, Highly Appreciated.

That the audiences which greeted
the production of Queen Esther"
were delighted with the musical eff
forts of the local artists was evidenced
by the hearty applause for each num-
ber. The work of Mrs. Buckley as
Queen Esther; of DR.. Higgins as
the King; Messrs. Jones and Ludlum
as Haman and Mordicai, and in fact of
all the solOists, was a surprise to the
tOwnspeOple. The whole production,
which was under the direction of
John r. Newton, went off with preci-
sion and smoothness, in which the
chorus, composed of fifty voices,
should be given it's share of praise
The music of the Miller orchestra
proved most delightful treat to the
audience, and elected a great deal of
Just commentator. The staging of
the cantata was under the efficient
management of Messrs. Nixon and c.
F. Burrows, who in every way lived
up to their regulations.
The expenses of the play were
heavy, owing to the purchase of the
costumes, but in spite of this expense,
about $40 was netted to the Methodist
and Presbyterian churches.

EXPERIMENTAL WELLS.
Two Profrty Unter Nay' to Fi1d a
supply Of Water.

I. B. Perrine, T. M. Callahan and S.
H. Bolton have made arrangements
with we'll drilling company to drive
a we'll on the property lying north
west of the city near the Manson
house and will use the water for their
several properties located in that sec
tion.
Another project which will shortly
be begun is through the enterprise OF
P. B. Johnston, who will drill for
water on his ranch south of town. The
striking of water in either case would
make the sinking of we'll in this
city certain of success and for this
reason the progress of both ventures
will be closely watched.
