NEED OF MECHANICAL POWER
Increase In Resistance With Speed
More Marked In Water Than
In Air.

Some mechanical operations require
4 surprisingly large amount of power.
while others are performed with much
ess than the novice might expect; the
secret is usually found in the speed at
which the machine runs. The auto
mobile. rated at from Is to go
horsepower, will serve as an example.
I Is heavier han an ordinary carriage
and consequently Is harder to pull,
even on level ground: On an upgrade,
where the weight f the machine is
being raised the height Of the hill. the
Inference Is much more marked, for no
refinement of bearings can reduce the
pull due to gravity. The vehicle drawn
by a horse seldom exceeds a speed of
zen miles per hour; If that speed were
increased to 20 miles, a moderate
automobile speed. the power required
TO draw 1t would be doubled, even
though the actual pull remained the
same; as a matter OF fact the pull
would have to be greatly increased.
perhaps doubled. in which case four
times the original power would be re-
1ulred- The resistance of the air is
triiing at ten mile per hour, at 20
It becomes serious. and when the
speed is increased to 40 miles or
more a great deal of power is required
to overcome it; an idea of the wind

GREYHOUND JOINS COYOTES
Pet of an Oregon Farmer Responds
to the Call of the
Wild.

A once tame greyhound. owned by
Martin Smith OF Sandy. has become
wild and now lives with the coy
otes it formerly chased in the sur
rounding hills.
1t has been three years since this
greyhound heard and responded to the
call OF the wild. and it has never ven
tured back to his old home in Candy
except to come to the outskirts to
steal chickens from hen roosts.
The companion OF this greyhound Is
a coyote and they have frequently
been seen together running through
the outskirts OF Sandy. Several per
sons have tried to get photographs
Of he strange couple, but have failed.
The greyhound has lost all desire
to return to his former home and has
become even more wild than his com
panion. The animal has quite a his
tory, having been raised from a puppy
in the neighborhood. One day he dis
appeared from his home and several
eek afterward was seen with the
coyote which has been his constant
companion ever since.-Portland Ore

A SUDDEN DEATH.
Grandpa Lee Dies Suddenly at His
His Farm Home Sunday.


This community was saddened
Sunday when it was learned that
Shepherd Lee had suddenly died at
his home six miles south of this
city that morning. Not a word nor
sign of warning was given his wife
OF what was to happen and his life
left his body instantly.
Mr.. Lee arose Sunday morning
apparently as well as usual, did the
customary work around the barn
and after eating as hearty a meal
as usual, sat in his easy chair to
read the papers. His wife was abou
the room when she saw him drop
his arms and when she reached his
side life was gone.
Mr.. and Mrs. Lee came here less
than a year ago and took up a home
south of this city where they have
since resided and have won a circle
OF friends who join the wife and ten
children in sorrow. He was born in
Canada, March II, 1887, was past
~ years of age at the time of his
death. He has always been a hard
working man and spent most of his
years on the farm. He came to the
states about ten years ago, settl-
ing first in Michigan, then removed
to Wisconsin and later to Minnesota.
He came to Idaho about a year ago.
Ten children survive him, two of
them, j. w. and r. A., being resi-

JOHN KENNEDY
is INJURED
Foreman at the Dental
Works Slips and Hurts
Left Leg.
TAKEN TO IMFiRMARY

John Kennedy. about sixty-five
years old, is confined to his home in
Bay View avenue, Prince Bay, with
a badly injured left leg as the result
of a peculiar accident that happened
shortly after 7 o'clock yesterday
morning.
Mr.. Kennedy, who is a foreman at
the S. S. White Dental Works at
Prince Bay, is the owner of a power
boat that he has used during the
summer. Yesterday before going to
the factory where he is employed he,
with a workman, went to Lemon

out of the water preparatory to haul
ing 1t out for the winter. Mr.. Ken
nedy, in jumping from the boat,
slipped and injured his leg. He was
foundry the side of the boat by
Louis Mersereau, of Amboy avenue,
Pleasant Plains, and removed to his
home, where he was attended by DR..
R. w. Renwick, Of Amboy avenue,
Prince Bay.

was badly fractured. The physician
had Mr.. Kennedy removed to the s.
r. Smith Infirmary, at New Brigh-
ton. The X-ray was placed on the
leg and 1t was found that the liga-
ments were ruptured and that it
would be some time before he would
