NUMEROUS BURGLARIES
TAKE PLACE AT CAREY
Especial Correspondence.


n AREY. Ida. Dec. 12.--Another
y burglary occurred here last We'd
nesday night. The barber shop of
Lorenzo Bush was broken into and
about $3.50 worth of raZors and other
articles carried off. There is no clue
to the thieves. The same night parties
broke into the school house and held
a feast there, burning up three scuttles
of coal.
The same parties prowled around
the Blaine Coop store about o'clock
n. M, trying the doors and windows.
and when the clerk sleeping there was
awakened and went to the front to
Investigate. the providers put out their
light and fled. Up to a short time ago
the citizens scarcely thought it ncces-
sary to lock up their places or sleep
in stores, but an undesirable element
seems to be coming this way.
Carey has grown In the last two
years so that it Is only natural that
we look for changed conditions. We
have now two up to date general
stores, well stocked drug store.
a blacksmith shop. shoe and harness
repairing shop, butcher shop, milli-
merry store. three hotels. barber shop.
livery stables. pool rooms. state
bank doing IL good business. a two
story fOur-room brick schoolhousc and
quite number of modern residences;
also an agricultural implement firm
and well stocked lumber yard.
We lack water works. electric lights
and rural telephone service.
We have fine we'll water, found In
and through gravel formation, from 30
to 20 feet deep.
A townsite Is plated off and people
are making an effort to get in from
scattered ranches, into q more COM
pact condition.
The two canals running through tho
valley and being improved yearly, are
affording ample opportunity for irri-
CATION. and the raising OF hay. grain
and fruits. Some of as fine fruit as is
seen anywhere in Idaho was raised
here the past season. Land Is increas-
Ing steadily in value, and new Corners
are locating.
Nearly all our girls are married. so
the young men are going away for
wives and bringing them here to in
crease our numbers. Ben c. Wilde and
carl NJ. Phippen are the latest to we'd
Utah girls and bring them to Carey.
Mr.. Wilde'S wife was Miss Mary NJ.
Welch of Salt Lake: Mr.. Phippen's
was Miss Florence Kelsey of New

RETAILER REFINED.

1t Is suggested by the mayor that. II
the intention was that they should
come under the head and provisions Of
retailers, each druggist has the
privilege Of establishing bar on his
premises. This contention Is by virtue
of the definition of a retailer as given
in the amendments, which follows:
"a retail dealer, rs contemplated in
this ordinance. Is person. firm. as
ISOLATION or corporation who sells or
otherwise disposes Of liquor in any
quantity of less than five gallons and
also by the glass or dram to be drunk
on the premises where sold"
No amendment was offered to sec
ton OF the old ordinance, however.
which provides that under druggists
license. no liquor may be sold In
quantities of less than half pint and
not to be drunk on the premises. The
proposition has been brought up In
this connection, however, whether or

up by either of these methods he has
called in the city attorney and together
they are cndeavOring to make the doc
rment bear the semblance of consist
ency.
PUZZLED THE CoUNCILMEN.
The question which troubled the.
mayor is contained in those portions of
the amendment ulluding to druggists
licenses Consideration Of this feature
In Monday nights session OF the coun-
Gil provoked lively and heated arEu-
mcnt The motion was finally made by
Councilman Reedall that all reference
to druggists license be eliminated from
the ordinance. In understanding the
purpose OF this motion, the council was
divided, although unaware OF the fact
at the time Whether the motion was
meant to refer to the amendments and
let the provisions of the old ordinance
stand, or whether II was intended TO
strike out all reference to the drug
gists in the entire ordinance with the
intention of letting them come under
the head OF retailers, or yet, again,
whether II was believed that by elm
mating such reference. provision would
be made by omission, taking from
on no one of these can the mayor de-
eide. There Is no question as to what
the ordinance does say. but any inten-
tiOn that was supposed to be carried out
by its provisions has boon obScured by
the inconsistency OF the measure as II
stands amended.

THE CHAPEL.
1T is my desire that at least the sum
of s1.5O0, 900 be used for the erection and
furnishing of n university chapel. AS
The spirit Of religion should penetrate
and control the university, so that
building; which represents religion ought
to be the central and dominant feature
of the university group.
THE chapel may appropriately cm-
body those architectural ideals from
which the other buildings. now so beau
tifully harmonious, have taken their
spirit. so that all the other buildings
on the campus viii In turn seem to have
caught their inspiration from the chapel
and in turn seem to be contributing their,
worthiest to the chapel.
In this way the group of univer-
slty buildings, with the chapel CEN.
trally located and dominant in its
architecture. Will proclaim that the
university in its ideal is dominated by
the spirit Of religion, all its depart
iiSi'ss 'hip siiisspiiSh " ttN .i'Si'''''
feeling and all Its work directed to the
highest ends,
whether the chapel can be so plan
ned as to admit of housing the Young
Mems Christian association and all the
dstinctively religious functions of the
university or whether this will re-
quire separate building. is matter
that can best be decided in connec-
ton with the plans of the architects.
will ask you kindly to submit the plans
before their final adoption. to my son,
who will be fully Informed regarding
my wishes.

REASON FOR REFUSING
MONEY FOR COAL ENTRIES.

seattle. Oct. pa Post-IntelliEen
cer washington special says:
washington, Oct PIN refusing to
accept from C. A. Mckenzie and John
". Roberts $4,000 as final payment on
their Alaska coal claims, as related in
the Observation-Disclosures last Monday, Re
ceiyer Mullen, OF the Juneau land
office. was acting in accordance with
an opinion which has just been rem
dered by Attorney General Wicker
sham.
The receivers action, however, an
ticipated the opinion by several days.
II. taken with the opinion, establishes
the policy of the department not to is
sue final receipts to any Alaska coal
claims until after any charge or sus-
picion of fraud has been investigated
and disproved.
The statute provides that final pay
ment must be made on claim within
certain time after entry, and the
practice heretofore has been to issue
final receipt on payment. This was
done in the Cunningham cases, with
the result that the government has
had $4,000 of the claimants money
for several years, and, in the absence
of special legislation, will hold it per-
manently, even if the claimants do not
get the land.
The attorney general now holds that,
notwithstanding the statute, final pay
ment is not required to be made until
after the termination of the protest or
adverse proceedings against an Alas
kan coal claim. In the meantime, what
ever rights the claimants may have are
protected.
