NOT AN UNLUCkY NUMBER.
Thirteenth the Date Of Both Senator
Heyburn's Elections.

Thirteen" is not an unlucky num-
Der in the life of Senator Weldon B.
Hepburn. Twice on the 18th of Jan
uary has he been elected United
States senator. The following bio-gra-
phical sketch of Senator Hepburn is
taken from the congressional direc-
tory, for which each member of CON
gress furnishes personal sketch:
Weldon Brinton Hepburn, Republic
can, of Wallace, was born in Delaware
county, Pa, May %, 1852; his parents
were QuaQers OF English descent; re-
ceived an academic education; was adj
mitted to the bar in 1876, and has prac-
ticed law continually since that time.
In the winter Of 1883 he moved to Sho-
shone county, Idaho, and has resided
there ever since. He was member
OF the convention which framed the
constitution of the state OF Idaho and
was chairman of the judiciary commit
tee OF that body. Mr.. Hepburn has al
ways voted and supported the Republic
can ticket; was delegate to the Re-
publican national conventions of 1888.
1892 and 1900; was not affected by the
the silver craze OF 1896, and was large
ly instrumental in maintaining the Re-
publican organization In Idaho during
that campaign and since, which re-
suited In the sweeping Republican VIC
tory Of 1902; was the nominee Of the
Republican party Of Idaho for con-
gress in 1898, but was defeated by a
fusion Of the Democrats, popu1ists and
Silver Republicans; was elected to the
United States senate January IL, 1908,
receiving the entire Republican vote

On Monday morning, Chas. Kas-
parew. who lives four miles west of
Bull, had quite thrilling experience
with large bob-cat. The previous
evening he had set trap for Br. Bob,
so on this morning he went out to see
what luck he was awarded, And on
reaching the trap found large bob
cat. He undertook to shoot, but the
trigger pulled hard, thus causing him
to miss 1t the first three shots. After
the third shot had been fred the cat
made lunge and broke loose from the
trap. Mr.. Kasparek had then only one
more shot to fire, which he then did,
striking the animal in the leg. Being
then without ammunition, he finished
the animals death with stones. Char
ley says II thought sure for a while
that Mr.. Bob was going to get me-
He sent the hide to his brother, Fred
kasparek, a taxadermist in Omaho, to
be mounted. This feroucious animal
weighed S9a pounds.
John G. Smith of Bull, and Mrs.
Edyth Cooke of Los Angeles, CAL,
were quietly married in Twin Falls
Sunday at high noon, by the Rev. John
Gourley at the Presbyterian parson-
age. Mr.. Smith was one of Bulbs most
thrifty bachelors, while the bride is
the daughter OF Mrs. H. G. Payne of
Los Angeles, Cali. This wedding is the
result of an early romance, while Mr..
and Mrs. Smith were schoolmates to-
gether in Beaver Falls, Wis Mr.. and
Mrs. Smith arrived in Buhl Sunday
evening, where they will make their
home. Mrs. Smith says, 81 am very
much delighted with busy Bull, and
am sure shall be happy here" This
wedding was quite surprise to all
of the Buhlites, as the bachelors all
resolved to stay firm this year and not
be bequiled by the feminine race. But
nevertheless they all heartily join in
congratulations to the happy couple.
Alas for the bachelors club.

Notice.

Commencing with the month of De-
cember, 1908, the monthly rate OF Is
cents per inch for advertising In the
Times will be annulled and a weekly
rate of 1917 cents established. The
change is made in order that when
five publications occur in a month the
Times can collect for same. After q
year and nine months OF the old rate
the Times management has discovered
that 1t is practically publishing four
issues each year for which no money
is received, and as the printers have to
be paid and other expenses of the Of
flee for each issue, for this reason the
slight change will have to be made. tt

personal friend and who had done
much for Cassia county.
Tender Made to Brady.
A word from Governor Brady, and
the possibility Of Senator Heyburn's
reelection yesterday might have fad
ed away into the dim mists of POLITICAL
extinction. Three representatives add
ed to the opposition, and deadlock
would have been produced in the legis-
lature which may have continued until
Governor Brady or another was select
ed to wear the senatorial tOga
This Is the situation which develop
ed from the prolonged caucuses OF
Monday night and early Tuesday morn
ing, according to a statement made by
Bob" Hayes of Pocatello, Tuesday
evening
Governor Brady could have been
our next senator had he SO desired"
declared Hayes. Had he signifled his
acceptance OF proposals made to him.
he could have been elected, perhaps
not on the first ballot, but before the
week ended. Nineteen members of the
Tenth session would have voted for
him Wednesday. That was enough to
block majority for Hepburn, after
which l believe the tide would have
turned against Hepburn and in his di-
rection. However, Brady fatty retus-
ed to entertain any such action, and
stated that the senior senator should
be chosen in accordance with the
pledges contained in the party plat
FORM"
Brady Refuses to Talk.
Governor Brady, when approached
in regard to the matter, declined to
discuss any OF it's phases.
Il am pleased with the re-electi0n
Of Senator Hepburn" he said. II stand
firmly on the basis that the promises
made in the Republican platform
should be fulfilled. l considered il
the duty OF the legislature to return
Hepburn to the senate, and | am glad
1t has done So"
Reports, grounded upon definite au-
thority, are to the effect that when the
senatorial horizon was clouded Mon
day by Spaulding's absence those who
had generated the former anti-Hey-
burn movements commenced opera
tons at once, and succeeded in sign
ing 16 legislators, the majority of them
being from the north.
1t is rumored that George w
Thompson of Lewiston, and Secretary
of State Lansdon were among those
behind the maneuvers. Three more
members were needed to cause an ef-
fective deadlock. Negotiations we're
attempted with Hayes to include the
Bannock county delegation of three in
the combination. 1t is said that Hayes
refused to enter into the deal unless
Brady would be willing to be candi-
date.
Connecting Link Lost.
From then on during the long night
pressure was brought to bear on the
governor but he proved immovabIe-
Hayes himself was unable to obtain
satisfaction and on that account would
not release the members from BAN
mock.
The turmoil seemed to center about
these three but persuasion and induce
ments were without avail.
When the conclusion dawned upon
the antagonistic forces that their eff
forts were fruitless, the fight was Civ
en- up and an onslaught made on the
Hepburn band wagon Tuesday morn

Form Colonies for Tramps.

Perhaps most tramps have no de-
sire to work, preferring to cling to
their habits of shiftlessness, but there
are doubtless many men in the ranks
who would settle down to the serious
task of making money and improving
their condition If they had the proper
training The latter may and prob
ably will, be rescued by term on the
farm" but the veteran who has
walked rails when no freights were
available; who has SHE'D at anything
savoring of labor; who has begged or
stolen what food he has obtained. can
not be reformed. He will go on until
the end in his old way, scourge to
humanity and a disgrace to civiliza-
ton. Usefulness was never and can
never be for him. To the extent of
the number constituting this class the
farm colony will be failure.

STONE cRUsHEs ATHLETE
Barre Man Has His Legs Broken
Three Times

in a boxing tournament in Boston a
short time ago, was seriously injured
In the Marion & O'Leary granite shed
where he was employed as a Jumper

ture of one leg below the knee.
Rydberg who is about % years of
age. was assisting Mr.. O'Leary in pla-

had carried out the stone by means
of the travelling crane to this horse.
Rydberg had an iron bar In his hand
and after the stone had been placed
on the horse was prying it along. The
ground was soft and the side OF the
horse near Rydberg began to sink in.
Instead of jumping away Rydberg

control its course. He was unsuccess-
full in this, however, and the stone
landed on the body breaking the legs
