JUMPED BOARD BILL.
Three Guests at Hotel Grande Made
Getaway Before Paying.

On the 18th of this month there came
to the Hotel Grand two men and
woman, registering Mr.. and Mrs. Rob-
ert Miller and Blonde Baughn. Things
run smoothly with them until H. w.
Jeans, proprietor of the hotel, returned
from his trip to California and he tried
to get them to come across for their
board, but with one excuse after an
other they put him off, saying that they
were expecting money by every mail.
Thursday afternoon they were missed
after the west train had gone, and upon
an investigation found that they had
left the city. Word was at once sent
down the line and that evening the
woman was caught at Bliss. Deputy
Sheriff Atwood has gone after her and
will no doubt land the men, who are
most wanted, before he returns.
Suspicion, and very strong at that,
points to petty larceny by some of the
outfit, for that afternoon many articles
were missed from rooms, such as small
amounts of money, stick pins, etc.
While there is at present no evidence
to connect this matter with any of the
party, yet it is very circumstantial, and
from their method of living and depart
ing it is evident, too, that this trio
would be good catch for any officer.
1t is known that the woman of the
party received mail here under the
name of Miss and also Mrs, which
points to the fact that everything was
not right

A Plunge Bath.

Tuesday morning while Albert Schmidt
was making his regular morning calls
over the city, taking orders for the
Line-Sehmidt company, of which he is
member, he took a plunge bath. On
the vacant lot near the mill. while walk
ing across some ice, he broke through
and in far enough to necessitate an en-
tire change of clothing. Of course this
was a joke on Albert, seeing he got out
OF it so lucky, but upon investigation it
was found that this is hole about seven
feet deep full of water. Had this
been child that crossed here and broke
through it could easily have resulted
seriously. The owners of this property
should see to it that this hole is filled up
or in some way guarded before some
thing serious does happen.

Three Ring Circus.

The Commercial club is preparing an
entertainment that will be better than
a four-ring circus. There is 50 much
talent available that the parties having
the matter in charge are debating
whether to make it d seyen-day-go-as-
you-please or make a selection here and
there and pull the thing off in one
night. Specialists in several grades Of
humor have volunteered their services.
and some of them were so champion
like in appearance that they were prom
ised the star positions. The only things
settled upon are that the entertainment
will be minstrel, opening with an
overture of twenty-five voices lasting
twenty minutes and close with an orig
inal side-splitting comedy, written by
Harry P. Wallis. Money back at the
door if there is not an encore for every
number.

IRRIGATION AIDS
POWER RESOURCES
Condition at American Falls
Is Unique.
Storage Reservoirs, For Irrigating Mil
lions of Acres, Increases Flow
of River at Low Water
Season.

At an eastern banquet table recently
attention was called to the wonderful
power resources of American Falls bv
the remark that 2,000 900 acres of land
were watered in the Snake river valley.
and that every drop of water passed
over our falls. That unlike most power
sites, the greater acreage irrigated the
greater the volume of water in the
river at American Falls, because the
principal storage reservoir are located
In the upper valley and must pass here
before IN reaches the thirsty land.
This is all very true. The gigantic
projects below here, and the larger
ones contemplated, will vastly increase
our power by increasing the flow at the
low water stage. This is about the
only place where power and irrigation
enterprises do not clash on account of
opposing interests, but here both work
In perfect harmony. Every foot of
water stored above is a direct benefit
to American Falls, and storage reser-
voirs must be utilized for every future
project. The situation is unique one,
and beginning to be appreciated by
capitalists throughout the east.

Back to Chicago.

Something over a year ago there
came to this city a young unmarried
man, who, after looking over the ground
and investigating conditions, decided to
locate. 4 homestead about three miles
from this place took his eye and after
fling upon this became one of AmerN
can Falls boosters. A. B. Davidson.
the man in question, did not tell any,
body the secrets of his life or his plans.
but he quietly and carefully erected a
home on this quarter of Idaho's best
soil and to some extent cleared the
place and made it homelike in general.
When this was done he arrayed himself
in a new suit, blacked his boots, spent
several hours in the barber shop, bid
his friends a temporary goodbye and
was off to Chicago from where he came.
Now, A. B. would not let his friends in
on the plans which he had in store, but
to those close to him it looked suspi-
cious. The many dainty, highly per-
fumed envelopes which he received
through the mails with Chicago post
mark and the way he would repair to
his room to read them, leads his hotel
chums to suspect that he is about to
join the band of newly-weds which have
recently taken American Falls.

Harper Company Returns.

That grand, old classic, Grip Van
Wrinkle, " heart story of human inter
est, household word in every American
home, beloved by old and young alike,
will be presented at the Auditorium,
February 1st, by J. G. and Glenn Har-
per, with Joseph Detrick in the title
roles. The story of the play gives a
vivid portrayal of a character true to
life, loyal, lovable and true, yet weak.
Never has play gripped the hearts of
theater goers like rip Van Wrinkle. J"
1t has been before the public for many
years and has lost none of its entertain
ing qealities. Humor, pathos, interest,
all are much in evidence in its makeup.
The story told is comparatively simple
one, but the appeal to the heart is
direct and true. The characters are
distinct, from the jolly village vagabond,
Rip, to the colleagues of the fcticious
Heindrick Hudson. Joseph Detrick,
who will play the part of "Rip," is an
actor of much prominence, having made
speciality of this character, and is said
to have no superior in the role. Much
attention has been paid to the costum-
ing and each character is dressed
historically correct, while the scenic
equipment is complete in every detail.

STATE TO LEASE LANDS
Between $50, 900 and 200, 900 Acres
to Be Leased for Grazing Purposes.

The state of Idaho has announced its
policy of leasing all state lands situated
within forest reserves for grazing pur-
poses, disregarding the attitude of the
forest service, which has in the past
prevented the state from receiving any
revenue from this source. State Land
Commissioner George A. Day is author
ity for the statement that when the land
board recently authorized the lease of
lands within the Weiser National forest,
that the state had resolved to lease all
lands similarly situated, for which appii
cations should be made. ''The board
has agreed to do one thing" he stated,
''and that is to lease this land, where
possible, to persons using the range"
The state now has, including sections
16 and 36, between $50, 900 and 200, 900
acres of land situated within the borders
of the reservations. In going to and
from this land, sheep and cattlemen
must necessarily trail their stock through
the Forests, feeding on the range en-
route 1t is because of this fact that
the forest officials have by their attitude
opposed the leasing of the state land
and it is intimated that the action of the
land board may precipitate proceedings
by the forest service to prevent such
use of the range. 1t is to avoid con-
fiict the state has agreed to make lease
of the state land to persons using the
range as far as possible.
During the last few years the states
revenue from lease has increased at a
rapid rate and it is not uncommon for
several applications to be received for
the same tract. The statutes provide a
penalty for trespass on state lands, in
view of which it is believed that the
acreage within the reserves will be
readily taken up by users of the forests.

SPECIAL DEMONSTRATION TRAIN
Special Arrived in American Falls at
Two P. M. Monday Afternoon.

The special demonstration train which
was advertised to arrive here at five
O'Clock Monday evening arrived at
two O'Clock. The notice that this train
would arrive earlier than was adver-
tised did not arrive in this city until
Sunday afternoon, and this was too late
for word to be scattered far, conse-
quently the number who were able to
take advantage of this instruction was
small. Nevertheless over one hundred
people attended and each present re-
ceived some beneficial instruction.
On this train were w. L. Guilford,
director of agriculture of the Twin
Falls projects, of Jerome; E. H. Grub,
one of the best posted men on potato
culture in the United States, of Car
bondale, Colo; H. L. Edgerton, an
other noted potato man of Colorado;
Thos. F. Mahoney, man who has done
so much for Colorado in the way of adj
vocating and teaching orchard heating;
A. A. Stauffacher, one of Twin Falls
potato man. The time for the special
here allowed only short talks from each
of these men but they talked to the
point and their talks were interesting
and instructive.
E. H. Grub, the national expert on
potatoes, recently wrote book for the
U. S. Department of Agriculture, a
few copies of which were on the train,
but owing to the fact that these books
were only issued on January 10, a small
number were available and general dis
tribution prevented. A copy of this
bulletin was left at the Press office and
we will give our readers the benefit of
this through the columns of this paper.
The gentlemen on the special report
that great interest was shown all along
the line at every stop and that at a
great many places it was impossible to
hold the meeting in the cars.
1t was indeed disappointment that
the time of the arrival of this train was
not announced in due time to give our
many farmers the opportunity to take
advantage of these instructive lectures.

and he and his most estimabIe wife will
be greatly missed from the social life

were defeated by teams from Pocatello
Friday evening of last week. The Falls

of American Falls entertained the boys
and girls basket ball teams from the
Academy in games which the Academy
students won by the scores of 20 TO 8
and IA to 5. Fine entertainment was
given the A. of l. people and after the

HOME TALENT MINSTRELS
Commercial Club Talent To Present
Minstrel Show.

Everything is now shaping itself for
one of the biggest times American
Falls has ever had in the way of her
talent shown when number of the
American Falls Commercial club ap-
pear on the stage as minstrel troupe.
Those in charge of the great event are
working night and day and fast train
ing the voices of the masses for the
chorus. Just how many will appear on
the stage cannot as yet be stated, so we
do not know exactly how much noise
will be made. The chorus is in charge
of Harry Wallis, who is one of Amer
lean Falls most talented singers, and
we trust he will be able to train the
voices to make the Auditorium ring.
For full information about the COM
papy and what they intend to do, we
refer you to Dr. J. F. Nee, president of
the club.

Attorney Winters Located.

Attorney S. c. Winters has secured
offices in the Illinois building where his
long years of experience is placed at the
service of the public. Sam Winters
has been a power in the shaping of
affairs in this part of Idaho, and his
mark is high up on some of the mile
posts of the states achievements. He
was one of the first lawyers to locate
in the Snake river valley. He opened
an Office in Idaho Falls, then Eagle
Rock, at time when the largest town
east of Boise had much less promis-
ing future than the least pretentions
village of today, and by ability and in
dustry fought his way to 3 safe place
near the top of his profession.

Potato Patch of the World.

E. H Grubb the Colorado potato expert, remarked
his trip through Idaho that the Snake River Valley should
be the worlds largest potato patch because here and
favorable conditions combined The ideal potato
grown altitude much less than 1000 feet and from
that to 5000 feet Keeping and culinary qualities of po
tatoe grown high attitudes vastly better than those
grown in lower levels These what give such market
value to the staple food product few western
locations
Idaho farmers should fail to make of these fa-
vorable conditions Mr. Grubb advises but work with
Idaho land will produce twice the yield of Kansas
Nebraska Iowa. with twice the price for her fancy pro-
duct 1t unusual for Idaho growers to net S1OO
from of potatoes after all planting grow
ing and marketing have been deducted and many
even larger returns.

Large Shipment of Flour.

Last week there was shipped from
the American Falls -four mills six cars
of flour. The company has never ex-
perienced time when they could not
dispose of the flour made and are at all
times taxed to the full capacity of the
mill. American Falls flour is considered
superior, partly from the fact that the
wheat raised in this section is more fav-
orable to the manufacture of good -four
than that of any other section.
