FOUND BURKE mot GUILTY.


The case Of the state against
James Burke, charged with petit
larceny was tried, in Justice Of
Peace O'Callaghan's court We'd
nesday morning at 10 O'Clock,
Justice O'Callaghsn held the de-
fendant not guilty and dismissed
the case.
The defendant was arrested by
Marshal Sawyer on the charge
of having stolen watch from a
rancher by the name of Napoleon
Beaudette last Thursday. Beau
dette told Marhal Sawyer that hs
had been robbed but could not give
description of the guilty party.
Next day Marshall Sawyer learned
that the watch had been pawned
for fifty cents by Burke. When
asked about the matter Burke told
the marshal that he had pawned
no watch. On being confronted
by the man to whom he had pawned
the article he admitted the act but
stated that he had brought the
watch with him from Minnesota.
In the meantime Marshal Sawyer
learned that the watch which
Burke pawned had been purchased
about six o'clock last Thursday
evening at o. F. Howe's jewelry
store by Beaudette.
At the trial Wednesday the de-
Tense told that he had purchased
the watch in question of Beaudette
and this testimony was corroborated
by George Schoheld who told that
he was present when the deal was
made and had advanced fifty cents
to the defendant to help pay for
the watch. The state had evidence
which showed that Schoteld knew
nothing of the transaction at the
time Burke went to him to have
him go on his bonds but the ad
mittance of this testimony was re-
| fused. Burke admitted falsifyinG
to Marshal Sawyer and said thai
he did so because he considered il
none of the marshal's business
where he got the watch.

MAY EMPLOY
EXPERT FARMER
Standpoint Commercial Club Fathers
Project Of Securing Agriculture.
list to Aid Farmers
EXPENSES WOULD Be LIGHT
Government Pays Salary Couaty to
Pay Expenses Only

A plan Is now on foot, fathered
by the Standpoint commercial club,
whereby Bonner county may Sc
cure the entire time and services of
an expert agriculturalist who will
spend his time III visiting various
communities of the county in order
that he may give such information
as is asked and advise with the
farmers on questions concerning
the planting, caring for and har-
vesting of their crops.
The proposition was brought up
Wednesday evening before the
Standpoint commercial club by
Dean CARLYLE of the Idaho College
of Agriculture. The commercial
club was informed that the salary
of such an expert would be paid
by the government. The expenses
of the expert, which would amount
to about 81 600, would have to be
borne by the county employing
him. Dean Carlyle stated that the
Idaho Agricultural college would
pay half of the expense money SO
that it would only be necessary for
the county to raise $500 to secure
the proposed services of an expert.
The proposition met with the
favor of the Standpoint commercial
club and the members OF that body
decided to take up the matter with
the various other clubs of the
county at once. 1t was proposed
that the county commissioners b.
asked to appropriate $3.50 of the
sum to be raised by the county and
that the remaining $3.50 be assumed
and raised by the several CONNER
cial club organizations.
= Dean Carlyle suggested the nam,
of Earl c, Hall, graduate of th'
Idaho agricultural college, as |
man who was we'll fitted to lool
after the interests of Bonner count,
farmers. He told that the plal
was one that met with favor where
ever tried and that the services 0
the farmer expert always proves
to be of incalcnable value TO tn
farmers and rancheFs.

BRONCHITIS
To Whom It MAY Concern

Bluevale, Ont, May 4, 1907 was
sick for two years with chronic bron.
chitis and a consequent rundown con-
dition received no benefit from doc
tors or from a trip which I took for
my health, and I had to give up work.
Vinol was recommended, and from the
second bottle I commenced to i'm
prove I gained inweight and strength,
my bronchial trouble disappeared, and
I am at work again.
1t is the combined action Of the
curative elements Of the Gods livers,
aided by the blood-making and
strengthening properties Of tonic
iron contained in Vinol which makes
it SO successful in curing bronchitis.
Vinol is a constitutional remedy for
chronic coughs, colds, bronchitis and
pulmonary troubles-not palliative
like cough syrups.
Try Vinol. If you don't think 1t
helps you, we will return your money.

Fought Over Mating Bargain.

Atlanta, Sept. 18.-Two Atlanta
women bargain hunters fought each
other like a couple of tigers in a

noon, over a piece Of mating which
each wanted and each declared she
had picked up first. The mating was
greatly reduced In fact, it was re-
duced to shreds when the woman
got through pulling at it and at each
other.
The manager of the store was at a
loss whether to call the police or the
fire department, but finally the wo-
men became exhausted and gave up
the struggle.
