POCA7fLLO COOLEST
PLACE IN COUNTRY

Pocatello is the coolest point In the
United States and southern Canada to-
day From the reports at the weather
bureau, no other station has received
such a cold wave and in no place in all
Of this country and the southern part
of the dominion has the temperature
fallen so low.
At observation time this morning,
the mercury had dropped at Pocatello
to rs degrees while Boise held at IS
degrees. Other places in the country
ranged all UP and down the tube but
the weather at the Idaho city made the
greatest drop.
The reports indicate that things gen.
orally are badly frozen at that point.
This is the coolest wave that even
Pocatello has experienced this fall. The
weather men are not yet sure whether
there was any material damage done
through that territory or not as the re-
suit of the freezing temperature.

INTERNAL. MACHINE.
ENDS WOMAN'S LIFE
Package Sent to Helen Taylor ii
Apartment House Explodes
Killing Her Instantly

NEW YORK, Feb. 3.--A package
received by Mrs Grace Willis Walker,
also known as Helen Taylor. in an up
town apartment house tonight eX-
ploded and caused her death almost
instantly. The mystery with which
the affair is clouded has baffled the
police.
The woman, who was SO years e
age, was called to the vestibule Of
the apartment house by a man who
presented her a good-sized package
and hurried away. She carried the
package to her apartment and as she
placed it on the table it exploded with
a loud report. DR.. G. f.. Perkins who
was passing the house, ran in to help
Miss Taylor, but she died in a few
minutes. The physician said in his
opinion it was an Internal machine. 1t
contained number of dry cell batter
les, one of which was driven into the
womans breast near the heart.
After several hours the detectives
arrested Charles M. Dickinson, who
said he was employed by "A motor
company held him on he technical
charge of homicide for examination
Edna Lamarre, a show girl, rs years
old, who lived in the house, but was

while Logan Wheeler is assistant
business manager. 1t is unknown
whether the visitor had his eye on
the funds of the Wigwam treasury
or whether he was after the milk and
cream money of the dairy. 1t mat
tiers not. He was foiled.
There is a well defined opinion that
the man plying his vocation as d
highway robber in this city will quick
ly come to grief. 1t is believed that
this particular operator is an anna
teur of the purest ray serene. and that
he will be landed if he does not cut

The highwayman wore black
mask covering his face and reaching
six inches below his chin. He wore
a corduroy cap and gray coat.

OLD PECK MEASURE is
OUTLAWED IN CHICAGO

CHICAGO. Feb. 3-Close uqon the
! enactment of the anti-noise ordi-
nance comes another blow to the
hucksters and the high cost Of living,
at least in so far as vegetables and
Fruits are concerned, has been check
ed in its sl<yward flight. Yesterday
the ordinance requiring the scale of
fruits and vegetables by weight in
stead of measure went into effect. and
rang the death knell Of the old peck
measure Of delusiye capacity so dear
to the hearts of the peddlers The
act enabling the passage Of the ordl-
nance was introduced in the leglsla-
ture by Charles A. Nelson The new
ordinance, it is declared, will result
in reducing the price Of vegetables
and fruits 20 per cent TO the consum-
er.
Twenty deputy inspectors were sent
out from the office OF city scaler Pc
ter thinner yesterday to see that the
law was complied with and that all
grocerymen and peddlers were pro-
vided with scales instead Of the old
Wooden measure on which the gro-
Gerry clerk Of old wont to beat tat
too with his fingers while mentally
measuring the bosses profits.
At the time that ordinance was
passed most Of the protests received
We're from the peddlers the grocers

Examination of the Columbia
River Orchard Company's AS
sets Gives No Ray of Hope
PROPERTY EXCHANGED
FOR WORTHLESS BONDS
Delarm and Biehl, Proprietors of
the Greatest Western Swind-
les, Have Disappeared and
Bondholders Have Nothing

SEATTLE, Feb. 9.-W. H. Delarm
of Seattle and Allen J. Biehl of Port
land, comprising the firm of "Delarm
& Biehl" are missing and practically
no assets are in sight. The holders of
the S5,OO0,0OO bond issue of the Co
lumbia River Orchards Company
found not a ray of hope in the situa-
ton today.
Pitiful stories continue to be re-
ceived from people of small means in
vesting everything they possessed in
the seven per cent bonds. Many per-
sons exchanged property for the al
legged worthless bonds, and in some in
stances the property exchanged was
of great value.
Exchanged Property for Bonds
Many small property holders seeing
in the proffered exchanges at big
prices for their property good in
vestment with their holdings. OF late
the advertiseme "Wanted-A house
In exchange for orchard bonds" was
familiar one in the newspapers. A
young man who would not give his
name said he had exchanged $4,000
worth of property in Montana for
bonds and was ruined The number
of families Impoverished by buying
orchard bonds is said to be beyond
belief.

HIGHWAYMAN SCARED OUT
Masked Man Enters Office of
Springdale Dairy on Third
Avenue North

The lone holdup man was operating
in North Yakima last night, as on the
preceding Saturday evening. In fact,
the holdup act on Saturday evening
is becoming of such frequent ocur-
renee that it may be designated as
chronic. Mark well the hour. 1t was
1856. The office of the Springdale
dairy was the scene. Location, No.
s, North Third avenue. The scene
is laid.
Present, Logan Wheeler, son of T.
H, Wheeler, proprietor of the Spring
dale dairy, and Harold Pinkerton, an
employee.
Enter, one holdup man, name un-
known. In his right hand he carried
huge six-sh ooter, and in his left an
automatic. The former he leveled at
Wheeler and the latter at Pinkerton.
That name Pinkerton is one to steer
clear of in holdupS and criminal mat
ters generally, SO he got the auto
matic.
Young Wheeler said that as far as
he could judge, in his excited condi-
ton, the barrels of the revolver were
nearly a foot long and had a caliber
"A. But that is merely a matter of
detail For few seconds the holdup
man was it with capital 1. What
caused such a quick change in the
situation may never be known, unless
through some fortunate combination
the holdup man should be arrested
and tell. At any rate, the dramatic
situation was held for only the frac-
tional part of a minute. noise was
heard on the outside and he backed
UP without waiting to get what he
might have easily obtained.
To revert When the holdup man
poked his nose within the door he
said, Hands up" and repeated the
injunction when the boys were slow
to respond, being dazed With a bra
vado born of paralysis of the nerve
center Wheeler said: "Come in, old
man, and get what's coming to you. I"
The desperate would undoubtedly
have gladly accepted the kind invita-
ton had he not been himself as
frightened as the young men whom
he was holding up.
Young Wheeler said that the revolt
yer leveled at him had barrel not
an inch short of three feet.
Immediately after the exit of the
robber telephone message was sent
notifying the police. Regular Off
GERS and plain clothes men were
quickly on the scene, but the desper-
ado succeeded in making his escape
before he could be apprehended, all
though one officer stated that he be-
lieves he got glimpse of him as
he disappeared, A plain clothes man
from The Herald office was also sum-
moned, but he was able to offer moth

TO SUPPORT FAMILY
Legislature VIII Be Asked to Pass

Contingency

SPOKANE. Wash. Feb. S.-John
H Wallace. member of the state
industrial insurance commission OF
Washington, announced at the annual
convention of the State Federation of
Labor in Spokane that a concerted
effort will be made at the next ses-
sion of the legislature to pass a law,

men sentenced to the penitentiary.
The idea is to change the present
system, under which the felon works
for the state to atone for his wrong
doing. so that his earnings will so to
the wife and children, left at home
and frequently destitute and in want.
Campaign of Education
The delegates expressed their APP
prevail of the plan, and, while no for
NAL action was taken by the organi-
cation as a body, it is likely that a
campaign will be launched in short
time to crystllize the idea into a
measure, which will be submitted to
the state legislature at its biennial
session early next January.
H. L. Thompson, of Standpoint, Ida
no, a delegate at the yearly meetingI
of the Pacific Northwest Hardware
and Implement Dealers association,
interested many visitors from various
parts of the Pacific slope and inter-
mountain country in a plan to haVeI
the federal government assist in clear
ing logged-off lands in the west. HeI
said:
Need of Government Aid
"The cost of clearing cut-over TIM
Der land is high and on that account
it is difficult to induce settlers and
pl ospective homebuilders to go into
the districts. The government makes
large appropriations for the opening
of rivers and the reclamation of lands
as it should, and we who live in the
timber districts think it also should
give similar aid in the clearing of
valuable lands now studded with
stumps, but adapted to the highest
form of agriculture. 1t would bene-
fit the entire country and provide
lowpriced lands for thousands now
crowded in cities"
