To accept would mean that he would
have to establish home in the

lease from the court case here he

charge in the United States Court
of the improper use of the mails

~ accepted bail for his appearance
at Boise for trial, which came up
Wednesday before Judge Dietrich.
Weaver entered a plea of guilty,
whereupon he was fined 5000 and
allowed 80 days to raise the money
to pay it. The District Attorney
tated to thse court that he was
satisfied that the young man was
not bad man at heart but had

WAS ACQUITTED
ON SECOND VOTE
YOUNG WEAVER NOT GUILTY,
WAS THE VERDICT OF
THE JURY.

The trial Of Ray Weaver of Bull
for causing the death Of his sweet
heart. Lena Spears, by giving her
oil Of tansy, was begun in the
District Court Monday morning, 60
ing over until Tuesday after the
presentation Of the States evil
denee. The case was given to the
jury at half past 2 o'clock after
full review of the law bearing on
the issue by Judge Walters. The
evidence was fully reported at
the time of the preliminary hear
ing and it differed little if any
at the trial.
The young people had been in
innate in their relations and the
girl, had written to the young man
of her fears, whereupon he bought
and sent to her the poison, which
she took in deadly dose. A day
or so after her death a letter came
to her address from the young man
and this was produced at the trial.
In it he told her what dose to take
and, ,straightway left the State. This
fact was dwelt upon by the pro-
secution to show that Weaver had
a knowledge of the criminality
of his act in sending the drug to
ahe girl.
Weaver told himself of sending
the drug at the girls request,
admitting a damaging story told
in the same connection by his
sister. Their straightforward
ness on the witness stand must have
made a very deep impression on
the jury. Neither made the slight
est effort to hold back or conceal
any fact bearing on the case.
The jury deliberated one hour,
taxing two ballots The first bal
lot showed the jury divided as
to acquittal or guilt 7 to 5. The
second vote was unanimous for
acquittal
The prosecution was in charge of
James r. Boutwell, and the de-
Tense of w. G. Bissell and Guy
Baum. The jurors sitting in the
case were Stephen H. Chase, B.

negotiations with the officials of

Southern Idaho for the Western
Pacific at Wells. New According t.
the Chronicle here the result OF
this conference will be working
agreement between the various rail
road and the Kuhn interests re-
garding railroad development in
this section. The fact that officials
of several large roads have conferr
ed with the Kuhns on the matter
is proof it has passed the specula-
tive stage and confirms the state
ment repeatedly made by Mr.. Mac
Walters and others that the road
would be built with as little de-
lay as possible, and that the Kuhns
would be important factors in the
venture.
The Kuhns recently launched a
50. 100000 corporation in New Jersey.
which has taken over the Idaho
Southern railroad. and will take
up the work extending this road all
over Southern Idaho.

SCHEME To PLANT
MANY YOUNG FISH
STATE GAME DEPARTMENT HAS
PLANS TO STOCK IDAHO
STREAMS AND LAKES.
Boise Statesman.l

For the benefit of the disciples
of Ike Walton in the Twin Falls
county and the advancement OF
the fish industry of the State in
general, Frank NJ. Kendall, State
game warden, yesterday sent to
the government authorities at Wasr-
ington, d. c., request for ship
ment Of 100000 black bass, to be
placed in the Salmon river reser-
vOir in the south part ofTwin Falls
county
This action is another step in
the furtherance of the plan adopt
ed by the State game and fish de-
partment to improve fishing con-
ditiOns in the State to the great
est possible degree. Only a few
weeks ago a big shipment of bass
was brought from the north part
of the State and placed in the
Boise river 1t is the plan to stock
Mud lake. in Bear Lake county,
with bass in the near future also.
according to Mr.. Kendall. This is
to be done with the intention of
ultimately having bass in Mud lake
and in Bear river. instead of carp
and squawfish. as the bass will
eventually destroy the latter spec
les.
Through the assistance Of George
H. Isaacs, the fish culture expert.
recently engaged by the governmen
it is the intention to increase the
output and efficiency of the State
fish hatcheries as much as posi-
bic. In line with this policy the
department has already begun the
construction of three private ponds.
one each near the State hatch
cries at Warm river. Hay Spur. and
Standpoint.
''These ponds" Mr.. Kendall said
Yesterday. will be used for the
growing of parent fish, from which
spawn. OF fish eggs. will be taken
each season. This means that
the State will provide ifs own par
emf fish in the public streams and
lakes will not be molested during
the spawning season or at any
time Of the year.
''The hatchery at Hay Spur will
he remodeled into spawn-rais-
ing station from which other hatch
cries will be supplied to certain
extent"
