FEDERAL COURT
DISMISSES CASE
COLTHROP CASE AGAINST SMITH
AND MOVES THROWN
OUT.
Judgment Against the Great Western
Beet Sugar Company is Given the
Plaintiff For His Claim.-Suit Was
Originally Filed in District Court.

The suit of E. J. Colthrop VS.. c..
B. Smith, Benjamin Moyses and the
Great Western Beet Sugar company
for a large amount of money alleged
to be due to him was called for hear
ing before Judge Dietrich in the
United States district court at Boise
this morning. A jury trial was
asked for by the plaintiff, who was
represented by J. ID. Watts of Noun
tain Home. Cavanah & Blake ap-
peared for Messrs. Smith and Moyses,
and the receiver of the Great West
ern Beet Sugar company was rep
resented in court by his attorneys,
Sullivan & Sullivan. The suit was
originally filed in the district court
in and for Elmore county, but was
later transferred to the United States
district court.
Mr.. Colthorp alleged in his com
plant that Smith and Moyses had
agreed to pay an indebtedness due
to him by the Great Western Beet
Sugar company, and sued not only
for his own account, but for several
others, which had been assigned t.
him. He also alleged that certain
parcels of property which were pur
chased and paid for by Smith ant
Moyses really belonged to the Grea
Western Beet Sugar company, and h.
attached these properties at the time
he filed MS suit.
After a jury had been selected thi
morning. Cavanah & Blake, on behal
of Smith and Moyses, presented thes
features to Judge Dietrich. who i'm
mediately threw the caes out Of cour
and dismissed the jury The judg
held that there was no ground 70
action on the alleged guaranty o
Colthorp's account by Smith AM
Moyses, and that if any question o
title to the property owned by Smitl
and Moyses was involved that was
matter of equity and could not b
properly presented to a jury.
Later on Mr.. Sullivan, for the re
ceiver of the company, and MI
Watts. for the plaintiff. agreed upot
an amount in which judgment shoul
be had against the Great Wester
| Beet Sugar company, alone. and thi
was entered in a sum between $4OO
and $4,000 less than the amour
asked for in Mr.. Coltorp's complain

June making it inopportune for the
court to secure a jury. he did not
believe that that should be considered
seriously, as it was just as easy to
secure a jury at that time as any
other. Touching on the restricted
financial condition of the defendants,
the court admitted that it might be
possible that were their means more
extensive they could proceed more
speedily in collecting the necessary
legal data required.
Il shall put the cases down for the
later part of June. for / believe they
can go to trial at that time" stated
Judge Dietrich. This viii be so un-
derstood by the counesl present. The
exact date will be fixed later"
District Attorney LingenfelteE
stated he believed the trial of the
cases would take several weeks, and
probably run into July. If it could
not be finished, he would prefer that
they go over until the fall term. The
court stated that the cases would, il
they went to trial in June, be con.
tinued until finished.

states that a good force of men is
being employed and that the company
has driven in 600 feet on the 800
foot level and opened up a large
body of good milling ore, but the
great expense of framing it down the
mountain has caused them to drop
below and start a new tunnel to cut
the ore body at the 6OO-foot level,
which they expect to do by June / >,
at a depth of 500 feet, when a mill
will be erected at this enw opening
The ore is all free milling and can
be worked for $3.50 per ton.

This company is composed Of
Charles Alexander Lou frankie and

little boom there five years ago,
when the then state mine inspector
Bell, had some interests there. which
he has since disposed of to the Walla

At Atlanta the Bagdad with 4C

the Bagdad may be forced to close

out a house, his drawings frequently call
ing for these items in sizes and styles re-
quiring that they be made to order. The
only thing which makes stock finish
cheaper than that made to order is that it
is made of a little inferior quality of ma
terials, run in a hasty manner and in a
more convenient time of the year than
finish prepared for each individual job
The result is that the mouldlngs are not
always true, knots frequently appear
which mar the appearance, but the most
common failure is that the stock frames
doors, etc, often have very rough places
on the surface. Also in the handling they
are sometimes badly marred and for these
reasons it Is very difficult to make neat
appearing work with stock finish. The
writer recently prepared the plans for a
man who makes the best part of his liv-
ing selling stock frames and finish. 1t
happened that this same gentleman had,
on several occasions, tried to get the
writer's consent to substitute stock finish
for specially prepared finish on several
orders that had come through his hands
When it came to planning his own home,
however, h. gave orders that the drawings
and specifications call for specially pre-
pared finish, remarked that he wanted no
stock finish or frames in his house. He
stated laughingly, Its all right to sell,
but | don't want any of it in miDe." This
is possibly one Of the little items which
calls for an increase in cost over what it
might be put in for that is worth while,
one of the little things frequently over
looked in the planning of a home is the
location of doors and windows with refer
ence to other doors and windows and the

corners Of the rooms. Some people will
build a home without the aid of technical
experience and never realize until the
home is practically complete that their
living room lacks a wall space wide enough
for the piano, and that some Of the bed
rooms lack wall spaces of proper sizes for
the beds dressers and other wall furniture
Wall lights are sometimes so placed that
a DOOR when standing open. viii swing
against it. Then again, doors sometimes
open so that they stand against other
doors. Sometimes in the arrangement OF
bed rooms this cannot be avoided when
it Is a closet door that the han door stands
against when open, although this is not
such a serious matter, but would look bet
ter If it has a free wall space to swing
against
A door in opening into a room, should
open in such a manner that one stepping
into the room would be stepping into the
main part Of the room and not be in
corner and have to swing around the end
OF the door, changing hands on the door
knob meanwhile, while entering a room.
Since windows are a part Of the inside
OF the house. adorning the exterior, they
should be considered in their correct rela-
ton to both. While the arrangement Of the
! first floor Is the most important, it is us
ually easier to arrange satisfactory than
tho second floor. BY having everything ar
ranged satisfactorily on the first floor, the
second floor in its arrangement is super
servant to it as to location OF windows
| stairway, chimney, etc. For this reason
I both floors should be kept in mind and
| both planned together, in order to meet
all the requirements and get the most sat

| the first floor and be directly under a win

HE description of an entire house
might be covered under the head
Of Odds and Ends, since it is
,s composed of a great many de-
Ie1slNAlt tails, each of which should be
- carefully studied on its own
merits and then in proportion to all other
features in which it comes in contact 1t is
well known fact that most people put
great deal more into their home than they
at first had any intention of doing The
reason for this is not that they make any
radical change in their original ideas, which
might have been built for the amount they
intended to expend, but that they do not
seem to realize that the cost of a house is
composed of an accumulated cost of great
many different Items and when they in
crease the cost of each a slight amount it
means in the total a considerable additional
expense. For example. In considering the
interior finish, they may decide to use a
little better grade than they had first con-
templated, having found out that it would
only increase the expense $50 When it
comes to the flooring, in order to obtain a
little better grade than they might get
along with, they add another additional ex-
pense OF S25. In selecting the plumbing fix
lures, they find that there is a great var
lance in the cost as we'll as the appearance;
the cost of bath tub alone varying from
SIS to Sl25, while $32 pays for a first-class
tub, they decide to put in a $45 tub in order
to have it a little more stylish in appear
ance, without having increased the quality
So the accumulation of these little extra
expenses amount up to a high figure.
There are some things on which it does
not pay to economize. The painting for
one, plastering being another item. All ce-
ment and masonry work should be of the
very best, although there can be a consid-
cradle difference in the cost of face brick
work A good face brick can be obtained
from prices ranging between $40 per thou
sand and $40 thousand While some spe-
cial brick, when shipped a long distance
costs more than $40, they are not commonly
used. When brick costs less than $40
thousand they are usually considered as
common brick, but even these when Sc
! lected, make a neat appearing building
when the color is pleasing. The color of
common brick vary in the different locall-
ties, according to the kind Of clay from
which they are made.
