IN Memoriam.

| !" WCstADFfdHts
u. NJ. Compton was born in CLAW
county, Missouri, Nov. 10, 1884,
and departed this life at his sons
residence in Nampa, Idaho, July
Il, 1910.
He moved with his parents to
Salinecounty, Missouri, and settled
near Marshal, where he grew to
manhood. In 1890 he moved with
his family to Idaho and settled in
the Boise valley, in which he has
lived unto the daysof his death. He
was married to Miss Anna Peyton
in Otterville, Missouri, in 1859.
10 this union nine children were
born, seven boys and two girls.
Five boys, who have grown to man
hood, still live in Idaho, to rever-
ence and reflect the life and char
aoter of their departed father
DIR Frederick W, James R., Ad-
Olson B., Charles F. and Louis H.
He enlisted in the army of the
confederacy in the early sixties,
and served as a soldier with honor
and distinction throughout the
eVentful period of the war between
the states.
Brother Compton joined the
Masonic fraternity in his young
manhood and was true to its prin-
cipals throug 1out his long life.
AS husband and father he was
kind, patient, affectionate and lov-
ing. His home was happy, home
in which love reigned supreme.
As citizen, he was true, honest
and upright. We might say he
was the ''old time type" of south
ern gentleman. He was honored
and trusted by the people of the
community in which he lived. He
was at the time of his death, clerk
of the board of village trustees of
Meridian, which position he had
held for six years.
He was we'll informed on most
subjects, and his counsel and adj
vice was sought and given freely.
He was a man of pronounced con-
victions, hence his friends we're
bound to him by the strongest
ties.
He was a friend of the church,
but was never a member of any
church. He never made a public
profession of faith in Christ as his
Saviour but his faith in God and
man was strong. He believed in
prayer and especially did he believe
in the comforting grace of the Di-
vine spirit. just few days before
his death, speaking to his son, J.
R., he said, "aIl is well, I am per
fectly reconciled to God" He
also bore testimony to the same
truth on several occasions in my
presence.
The interment was at the Morris
Hill cemetery at Boise. His fu-
neral was conducted under the
of the Masonic fraternity,
the local lodge of Nampa, of which
he was an honored member, rem
dering the beautiful ritualistic SER
vice of the lodge, concluded by the
writer in few words of personal
tribute to the life and character of
brother Compton, and sympathy
and hope for the bereaved relatives
and friends.

1894, and has since resided in this
vicinity, and has taken an active
part in business and in social af.
fairs. He was 32nd degree Ma
son, and of late has been secretary
of the local lodge. He was justice
of the peace for this precinct. He
was man of strong character, "a
good citizen and a kind father.
The funeral was held Wednesday
afternoon, and was attended by a
large number of people. The ser
mon was preached by J. Fl McSpar-
ran and Masonic rites were per-
formed at the cemetery. All the
children were present except Cleve-
land who was not able to get here
in time.
CARD OF THANKS.
We wish to thank our friends
for their kindness and sympathy

death and burial of our beloved

Dynamite Found.

rour STICKS OF dynamite were
found under the corner Of the
Times building in Meridian, Tues.
day afternoon. They we're first
noticed ON Saturday, but having
the appearance of roman candles
that had been used, no attention
was paid to them.
The dynamite was under the
building Friday evening and il
was thought by some people
that an attempt on the life of the
chief executive was planned. He
held an impromptu reception for
an hour or more in front of the
Times Office, meeting the citizens,
Another theory was that BOYS
secured the dynamite from the
reclamation company works near
Meridian, and failed to use it on
the Fourth of July.
Deputy Sheriff O'Connor and
MarshalW. F.Downey took charge
of the explosive, and started in
to trace the identity of the person
who placed it. Why any sane
man or boy would lay down care
iessly enough dynamite to blow up
several buildings. and leave it, is
past comprehension. Children
were playing in the same spot and
1t is supposed they handled two
OF the sticks of dynamite, as the
two were found on the ground out
side, away from the others.
The find caused excitement at
Boise. Wednesday, in an inter-
view, the Governor said whether
or not the discovery of dynamite
under the Times building indi-
Gates an attempt to take my life, I
am unable to say, but I am con-
vinced that if such is the case. the
loyal people of Meridian had no
part in the outrage. The explo-
sive, if placed there to cause nv
death, was undoubtedly put there
by some one from the outside who
went to Meridian for that purpose,
and who was prevented for some
cause or another from carrying
out his design"
The Mystery is Solved.
On Wednesday evening A. B.
Andrews, employed with the rec
lamation service in building later
ais south of Meridian, came to the
Times Office and confessed to the
placing of the dynamite there on
the I'd Of July. His statement is
as follows:
SIN order to fully satisfy the
people and the editor of the Mer-
idian Times in regard to the giant
powder found under the walk at
the rear of the Times Office at
Meridian, I make this statement:
The powder was placed there by
me on the night of the I'd of July,
not with any malicious intent how
ever, but simply to leave it over
night, when it was the intention of
the undersigned to return it to the
place out of town where it is
stored. A. B. ANDREWS"
1t appears that the powder was
to have been used for celebrating,
but the plan was given up. An
drews says he was to take it away
the next morning, but it being
Sunday he postponed it. Then
the matter slipped his mind, he

For a Rural High School District.

Superintendent Caldwell and
others interested are meeting
much encouragement in the plan
to create a high school district,
under the new law. Already eight
districts, Meridian. Cloverdale,
Blue Valley, Upper Fairview, Vic
tory, Roosevelt, Remington, and
perhaps White Cross, have joined
in with the movement. The ben
eft is that it provides a central
high school which the scholars
can attend, without tuition, after
they have completed the usual
country school branches. An ell
ection will probably be called to
vote on the proposition.
