May Camp at Twin Lakes.

Echo ranch, on Twin lakes,
Idaho, will probably be the scene
of the S. A. A. c. summer camp.
Directors DR.. ]. r. Sinks, Harry
Campbell and Harry Burdick paid
visit to the lakes Sunday and
report that the well-known trout
lakes will probably be chosen fol
the club campers, says the Spokes-
man Review.
Twin lakes is about 80 miles
from Spokane, near Rathdrum.
and is just an hours ride from
Spokane, either automobile o.
train.
The establishment Of summer
camp, the first in the history o
the club, is in line with the pro-
gressive plans Of the presen
directorate. Although the schem'
for the enlargement of the build
ing has been temporarily aban
doned, over $4,000 is being spen
in repairs.

Triple Murderer Caught.

After shooting and killing John
Manski, contractor and fatally
wounding G. H. Whipple, carpen-
ter, and Justice Of the Peace G. w.
Meisner, all at Dishman, WASH,
Thursday afternoon Of last week,
William Byrd, another carpenter,
made his escape into the thick woods
TO the east of Dishman, and by
Saturday was reported hiding ia the
Mica bay district west of Occur d..
Alene lake. The shooting occurred at
Dishman, Byrd using Winchester
rifle. A crowd OF citizens started In
pursuit of the murderer few minutes
after Manski and Whipple had been
shot down, and Meisner fell victim
to the one shot fred into the crowd
by Byrd as he made his escape.
Jealousy Of Whipple's wife and a
grudge against Manski are said to
have been the motives for Byrd's
rash act. A posse secured the woods
east OF Dishman but finally gave uI
the chase, the sheriff aud deputies
deciding to wait until Byrd should
appear.
Byrd was finally surrounded at
Mica peak, southeast of Spokane. and
captured Monday morning, while
eating breakfast at the Saritan home
He was surprised by four deputie!
and hurried to Spokane to await biz
trial.

ldaho's Mammoth Cave.

Idaho's Mammoth Cave.
That southwestern Idaho has a
cave that is natural curiosity and
should be thoroughly explored as
we'll as protected by the government
by Withdrawing it from all forms Of
entry, is proven in the remarkable
detailed description given Of the
cavity by Surveyor General D. A.
Utter, following a trip through the
cave recently when, accompa panied by
Frank Spoford, examiner Of surveys
and H. c. Harrison, chief Of the field
division, he made a trip to the
natural wonder.
The party located the cave q
miles from Boise and seven miles
from kuna, at point between the
Kuna butte and the SnakeNriver
They explored it for distance of
from l4O0 to 1900 feet and entered
seven great chambers marvellous in
their design and notable for their pc
culiar and fantastic appearance.
They would have gone farther had it
not been for the fact that falling rock.
filtering sand and dirt blocked the
cavities.
The entrance to the cave is
secured by climbing down swing
ing wire ladder distance of 80 feet
stated Surveyor General Utter. THE
opening is found on the open prairie
in the lava rock. After our party
entered the first cavity we started on
our trip of exploration. We found
that the cave ran almost due north
and south, one end running toward
Kuna butte and the other toward the
river.
Probably its most peculiar feature
was the fact that the underground
passageway was divided into separ-
ate chambers set at intervals and
entered by small and narrowing holes.
These chambers varied in height
from 20 to SO or 90 feet. In one OF
them we found a balcony or shelf
half way up the wall, and running
around the chamber. 1t was as per-
feet, almost, as though carved out
by human hands.
| Some of the chamber entrances
were SO filled up that we entered
them with difficulty. On one oc'
tcasion but one of the three of US was
small enough to squirm through ar
opening.
In my opinion the cave has it!
origin under or near Kuna butte ane
extends distance Of about six mile.
to the river below. There is an easy
pitch to the. land and the cave il
many respects is certainly an inter
esting one. In order to properly
explore it party should have ex
perienced underground men, picks
shovels, etc.
What struck me as peculiar wa
the fact that from the direction OF tn
river cold, damp breeze was notice
able in the cavity. From the othe
direction the air was dryer ant
warmer. Boise Capital News.

BUSINESS IN CONGRESS
The Reciprocity Bill Reported
in Senate.
EXPRESS MERGER PROPOSED
Plan Would Cheaper Rates
" Throughout Country.


The friends of reciprocity with
Canada it now appears are the
majority in the United States
senate. The bill will contain the
Root amendment relating to print
paper and wood pulp. In the
committee motion to report the
bill favorably was voted down,
also a motion to report it adversely
failed on a tie vote. The bill
therefore will 60 to the senate
without recommendation. 1t is
the expectation Of friends of the
reciprocity bill the Root amend
ment will be defeated in full sen.
ate. It is expected that after long
debate the bill will pass precisely
as it passed the house and in due
course receive the signature Of the
President,
Representative Lewis of Mary
land has introduced bill to merge
the express companies of the
United States into the postofice
system with the object OF reducing
the rate over one-half on small
parcels and about one-third
generally, and to extend the sys-
tenn to the country districts by
help Of the rural delivery, which
he proposes to extend further.
Mr.. Lewis says. 'There are two
main reasons why postal express is
necessary-hrst, the express COM
!! pany service does not reach the
country and the farms, and second
the contracts of the express COM
panies give them an average rate
of three fourths of a cent per
pound on parcels with the railways
,, while the government is paying
the railways &C pound for carry
ing mail. In order to get this
comparatively cheap transporta-
ton rate for the carriage of parcels,
| propose that the express com.
panies' contracts with the railways
be acquired by condemnation, on
the doctrine of the right of eminent
domain, and that bonds be issued
by the government to raise the
necessary funds" Mr.. Lewis
fully explained his plan in an ad-
dress in the house. He showed
that the charge for carrying ex-
press packages in the United
States is sixteen times as much as
for carrying freight, while the
average in other countries is only
five times as much. He said that
the express companies were max
ing so percent profit on capital
actually invested.
