LOAD OF WOOD
Miner e.t Banner Has o Painful
Accident While Teamins
on Bad Road

Caught under load Of timber when
it toppled over on him while on his way
to Banner last Saturday, George Van
buskirk, miner, suffered injuries which
while extremely painful do not promise
to be fatal unless complications set in.
He suffered a broken right arm, bruises
and cuts about the head and scratches
about the body, aud was taken to Boise
for medical treatment.
When interviewed By newspaper re-
preventative Of that city, Mr. Vanbus-
kirk said: "There is no doubt but that
was extremely lucky. The team ran
away with me after fell and there were
several cords Of wood which toppled
over on me. was going over cordu-
roy with light wagon and heavy load
and one of the wheels went down in the
bog. The wagon toppled over and was
hurried under the wood. was about
three miles away from help at the time
the accident happened and lay still for
several minutes before / could move.
Then dug my way out of the pile. Ny
legs were scratched and bruised but l
was able to walk and made my way to a
nearby ranch house, where bound up
my own wounds and went on to Banner.
If had fallen a little closer to the
wagon would have been carried along
under the overturned vehicle bed and
death would have certainly resulted, for
the horses did not stop going until they
tied themselves up in tree stump down
the road about three miles.
"The road is particularly bad and sew
eral accidents have occurred on it only
recently. 1t is an old-time corduroy
road which the heavy wagons have
broken down and when a comparatively
light wagon goes over it there is bound
to be an accident.
Il stayed in Banner for two days
when my back began to bother me SO
much that had to come to Boise for
treatment. expect to return within a
couple OF weeks"

A NAMPA CHENAMAN
PASSES BOGUS CHECKS

Fong Jim Lee, a Chinese merchant Of
Nampa is in jail for forgery after having
passed u bogus checks which he made
and signed as he pleased. He secured a
number OF blank checks and drafts OF
various descriptions and filed out long
list of them and after leaving his baggage
at the depot prepatory to going away on
the evening train be went out to get all
the money he could on the bogus checks.
Before being suspicioned or found out in
his big scheme he had passed u Of the
checks, receiving money on various ones
at each of the local banks and at various
stores.
By some means Fong Jim Lee learned
that his scheme was a failure and that
the officers were after him so he hid in
a basement OF laundry in the Chinese
quarters. Officers were out hunting him
in various parte Of town, it being sur
missed that he had endeavored to get out
OF town on foot. Chef Of police Maloney
located the much wanted Chinaman and
had to draw gun on him to make him
know that his threats would not avail
He then offered the policeman 500 to let
him go.
| Wnen searched at police quartere be
was found to have 1929 and about 5000
worth of bogus checks that had not been
used. The cash taken from him is about
sufficient to refund the losses to those
who had fallen victims.
Fong Gin Lee Is a son OF a well known
Chinese merchant Of Boise who is now
visiting in China. He has stood well in
Nampa and was considered worthy Of
trust. He is reticent and refuses to say
anything about the matter. Some are Of
the belief that he is deranged in mind
and that he is not responsible for his ac-
ton. It is not known at present just
what steps win be taken concerning him

RAILROAD MAN LOSES
LEGS AT GLENNS FERRY

George w. Brewster, yard switch
man, was thrown beneath moving cars
Saturday evening, and died about three
hours later from the injuries which he
received, says a report in the Glenns
Ferry Gazette. Both legs were severed
from his body close to the trunk. When
he fell under the train, workmen heard
his cry and rushed to his assistance. A
special train was ordered to take the
unfortunate man to Boise, but he was in
such critical condition that lie died
shortly after the train passed Mountain
Home. The remains were taken to
Nampa to be embalmed. On Tuesday
an inquest was held at the Ferry which
body returned VERDICT to the effect
that deceased met his death by accident
caused by defective coupling. The re-
mains we're shipped to his old home at

FAMOUS DUROC SHOW
ATTRACTS ATTENTION

Some people think that the Nugget is
not very far-reaching as an advertising
medium nor its columns are not eagerly
and hungrily perused by those abroad.
Therein lies great mistake. Only last
week a short item mentioning the grand
exhibit Of "blooded swine" which was
going on in Silver was the direct means
of cutting short the visit OF John Connors
who was soiourning in Boise with the
intention OF remaining over for aviation
week. But as all are aware, John is an
ardent admirer OF fancy or thoroughbred
stock of every description. SO no one will
be surprised to learn that the aviation
affair sunk into ridiculous nsignifcance
as compared to what might be chance
of lifetime to see wonderful hog
show right in his home town. Forth
with he Immediately boarded the first
outgoing train from the capital city and
hurried back to Silver. In conversation
with representative of the Nugget, Mr..
Connors, after viewing the stock, said
he felt fully repaid for the trouble he
gone to in getting here before the exhibit
closed. II is hoped that some one will
perpetuate the precedent established by
Mr. Brumbaugh and next year leap into
the breach by introducing breed Of
swine that will equal or eclipse the fam

the ranch with his horse saddled, but h
did not state how he lost the saddle, {
