SHE MADE HER BLUFF STICK
Woman With Broom Whips Two Cow
Boys Bringing Them Into
Court

Muskegon, Mich, Oct. 6-With an
old broom Mrs. Peter Anderson OF
Montague, wife of livery owner
vanquished two cowboys who, with a
flourish of revolvers, had frightened
away several men and defied the vii
lage marshal.
The cowboys were members of a
small Wild West show playing at
Montague. Not having horses of their
own, they engaged two at the An
derson livery barn for street exhi-
bition. In order to make the livery
horses assume the role of bucking
bFonocs the cowboys gave the ami
mails the spur until the blood cover
ed their fanks. Mrs. Anderson ask
ed to have them arrested, but the
horsemen laughed at the officer.
But Mrs. Anderson had her way
when the men returned the horses to
the barn. As they dismounted gsh>
charged with broom from the stable
and put the two to flight. Then she
seized the saddles belonging to the
cowboys and held them in lieu OF
damages for the cruelty to the horses.
She received her damages, and the
cowboys paid q fine.

BOLD ROBBERY AT POCATELI1O.
In Broad Daylight $4,000 In Gems
Stolen While Proprietor Was
Out to Lunch

Diamonds and jewelry to the
amount OF $10,000.00, were stolen
from the Roberts Jewelry company
store at Pocatello during the noon
hour yesterday while the proprietor,
M. L. Roberts was out to lunch.
The entrance to the store was eff
fected over the rear door through the
transom, ladder from a nearby
paint shop being used.
Mr.. Roberts had placed several
trays containing valuable jewelry In
the safe before going to lunch, turn
ing the combination on the safe door.
The diamonds were in the strong box
OF the safe which was forced open by
the thieves who used sledge ham
mer in the work.
There is no clew to the bold opera
tors but 1t is thought that It must
have been done by some one familiar
with the habits of Mr.. Roberts and
who knew the combination Of the safe
as only short time was consumed by
them in opening the safe and forcing
the strong box.
The store Is SO situated between
two buildings that the burglars had
an opportunity to operate unseen.
A great deal Of valuable jewelry
was taken from the show case as well
as the diamonds.

MINING Az GOLD POINT

Sluicing operations are in full
blast at Gold Point and many visitors
have been there during the past week
to see the methods OF treating the
big auriferous deposits that promise
to afford a means by which people
here can take direct road to wealth.
Visitors have been very much inn
pressed at seeing the gold itself
the raw material which Is also the
product - the. commodity toward
which all products are made to move
until they command the gold itself,
Indeed one of the strange fascinations
about placer mining is that the eye
falls upon the money as the hrst
product OF toll, and when visitors at a
sluice box or concentrator catch
their first CLEAN of the rich. heavy
stuff that is the standard of all values
they are very apt to become aroused
enough to shake off case Of 10 grip
or dyspepsia or unbelief or whatever
happens to be in possession OF them,
land their eyes take on new luster.
From gravel bank to cleaning bull
lion is a short cut at a gold mine, and
visitors at Gold Point have been COM

again, both parents and teachers, be-
ing but human make many mistakes,
but the individual mistakes Of par
ents or teachers amount to very little
when compared with. the damage
done by lack of cooperation, In pro-
noting the real good of the child.
What brings about this lack OF CO.
operation between parent and teach

to answer. But in most OF the cases
that have come under the observation
Of this writer, it has started In sort
lof apparently jealous fear that one OF
1.-THE parties was trying to exercise au-
thority that properly belonged to the

to say on occasions, Your father Is
not running this school. Parents
have been known to send this mes

behaves, I'll punish him myself" /" Too

has something that is of no use about
the place, and yet is needed by some
person living near by, and this auc-
ton sale is to be the means Of get
ting them placed where they will be
useful.
Such sales have been useful and
popular in some of the older states

this locality, and number of enter
prising men are helping to get the
matter started here. Il. M. Kennedy
is standing sponsor for the initial
work, and persons having anything tc
put on sale are requested to list the

to succeed Mr.. Curtis, as Is also Mr..
Frank Jordan of Idaho Falls.
1t was expected that appointment

his appointment as postmaster he
will probably not resign as county
clerk The commissioners finished
their work and adjourned Thursday
afternoon without having taken any

SUGAR FACTORY OPENS

The Utah Idaho Sugar company at
this place began grinding beets last
Monday, and unless they have some
accident, will probably keep the
wheels turning until Christmas or lat
er. The beet crop is good, the farm
ers have their work we'll in hand, and
the campaign looks very promising.
Owing to the presence of the white
hy in many of the Nampa fields this
summer the factory at that place WIN

Manager Dalton informs us that
they could use few more men In the

Will You Furnish Sack
or Two?


The Commercial club Is making up
carload Of potatoes to send TO the
National Land Show at Chicago. and
wants every man who has raised good
potatoes to contribute one sack or
more. Arrangements have been made
to have them received on Saturday,
October GARD at the Elevator. and the
following named gentlemen have
been delegated to handle the work.
J. &. Rond e. s. Hubbell, r. M. Ken
nedy, Jas. Martin, A. G. Robert.
The committee will supply people
with shipping tags to be firmly at
tached to the sacks, and there will be
printing on the tags to show that
the potatoes were sent by the Com
mercial club Of Blackfoot, Idaho, and
blank lines in which to write the
name of the person who raised them,
the kind or variety of potatoes, the
average yield etc. If any dealer
wishes, for the advertising 1t gives
him. to insert his own name or that

that is permissible. The purpose IS
to place large display Of our pota-
toes before the people at the land
show, and to have them tagged to
show just where they are from. The
Trowbridge & Niver company will at
tend to shipping them to Chicago,
placing them on exhibit and handing
them out, three or four in a sack,

purpose are requested to first decide
what class or size Of potatoes they
will place in the sack, and then sort
them very carefully, to get them of
uniform size, and do not place two
kinds of potatoes in the same sack
If you decide to furnish baking po-
tatoes, select the medium small ones
such as the stingy restaurant man OF
careful hotel man would want to
place on his tables as part of the
course. A potato that will bake quick
ly, and not be great waste II mol
eaten. The hungry man who wants
more potatoes can be served with q
second one better than all can be
served with large ones. If you de.
eide to send the larger ones. get all
Of one size and shape to fill the sack
Do not send knotty or scabblv ones
Place shipping tag properly filled
out, inside the sack before sewing II
up, and then put one on the out
side
If you cannot send the sack OF
sacks in on the 23rd send them soon
err but do not neglect this important
opportunity to boost your own bust
ness by sending sample of your
product into the greatest market anc
greatest show, when we can get then
shipped and handled all the way into
the eastern homes without any ex
pense to yourself.
This is our opportunity. Make the
most of it. l7-z

MAKES THE AUTOMOBILE PAY

f. w. Murphey, the proprietor OF
the Pastime, has built up quite an ex-
tended cigar trade the past year, sup
plying dealers up and down the road
towards Mackay and st. Anthony, and
on some of his recent trips while
waiting for trains or paying livery
bills he took notice of how much time
he could save and how much more
business he could do by having his
own auto, with the result that he purt-
chased an Auburn car as a part OF his
stock in trade.
Now he runs into town, hunts up
his customers, gets out to the next
town and the next one, and saves
time and money besides having an
outing between towns with his car.
