A CONFEDERATION
OF Interest to ShOshOne Falls Read


For months ShoshOne Falls read
ers have seen in these columns en-
ihusiaslic praise Of Doan's Kidney
Pills by ShoshOne Falls residents.
ould these prominent people rec
ommend a remedy that had not
proven reliable? Would they con-
firm their statements after years
bad elapsed if personal experience
Tad not shown the remedy to be
worthy of endorsement? No strong
eT proof of merit can be had than
cures that have stood the test of
time. The following statement
should carry conviction to the
mind of every Shoshone Falls read
er:
Robert Coates, Shoshone Falls,

much in praise of Doans Kidney
Pills today as l did when | publicly
endorsed them in 1907. At that
time l used this remedy and the
results of its use were satisfactory

DEVILS PLAYGROUND
ON MARTIN LAVA BEDS

The globe trotters have always
been DESTROYS to see the places
where, when nature was young,
the earth's internal forces played
havoc with her surface and left it
in weird and fantastic shape These
traces of the earth's violent strug-
giles are uncommon in many parts
and always awake within the
average man the liveliest sense of
his own insignificance in the
worlds economy. For hundreds Of
years thousands of persons have
gone to Europe, Asia and the in
lands of the Pacific to see the
results of volcanic activity. The
ArcO Advertiser asks, How many
know that one of the greatest
vents the world has. ever known
lies but a few miles away from

spot, make a careful inspection
for hours, and return before the

A few days party of Arco citi-
zens drove over to Martin where
they were joined by Era Martin

tramp inspected a few of the
scenic wonders of that part of |
the country. A number of craters
were inspected and that they were

S1O,OOO,OOO FIRE IN HOUSTON
OVER $50 RESIDENCES DESTROY.
Ed BY FLAMES.
Ficuseholders, Aroused by Warnings
OF Firemen, Flee for Their
Lives.

Houston, Texas. - Impelled by a
fierce gale from the north, fire
swept through the eastern section Of
this city, destroying property valued
at nearly $4,000, 900 and rendering
homeless more than a thousand per-
sons.
Several large manufacturing plants
were burned down, over 250 homes
were RACED by the flames and several
lumber yards, cotton warehouses and
congresses were destroyed. Not less
than f~ifty-seven city blocks now are
in ashes.
The loses ~conservatively are esti-
mated at from $6,000,0 900 to $4,000, 600.
The greater part of this is confined to
the lumber and cotton industries.
Fifty thousand bales of cotton stored
in warehouses and congresses were
burned, this item alone representing a
loss of 81, 600, 900.
The fire started in a cottage near
the Southern Pacific railroad tracks a
little while after midnight. It's origin
has not been definitely established. A
roaring wind picked up the flames and
hurled them to neighboring cottages
and boarding houses. In a flash these
structures ignited, spouting great col
umns of sparks. Selling these, the
forty-mile gale carried them two and
three blocks. Within half an hour af-
ter the fire broke out a great area of
small residences was in flames.
The fire spread rapidly to manufac-
turing plants neal the cottages and
boarding houses in which hundreds OF
~workingmen lived. The flames spread
10 rapidly that firemen for the time
abandoned all attempts to check the
flames and devoted their energies to
warning householders. Possible loss
of life thus was avoided.
At the big manufacturing plants and
cotton congresses city firemen and
volunteers had organized to fight the
onrushing flames. Walls and roofs of
the plants were w~ater-soaked. This
water quickly was licked up by the
advance guard of sparks, and when
the great columns of kissing, roaring
flames reached the factories these
structures succumbed with less resist.
ance than rows of cottages.

BOXER DEAD
Joe ketchell Dies After Friendly Bout
In Chicago Gym.

Chicago, Illinois.-Joe Ketchel, the
prizefighter who collapsed after a re-
cent bout with Billy Walters at the
United States naval training school
near Waukegan, died. Walters was
arrested pending investigation by the
coroner.
Ketchell, whose real name was Kan
arowski, owed his death to three blood
clots In his brain, which resulted from
a ruptured artery. According to Sur
geon Field, however, Ketchel did not
receive the injury during the bout at
the training school as the blood clots
apparently had been in existence for
some time. 1t is stated that Ketchel
was knocked out by a severe blow on
the temple in a fight with Mike ia.
honey at Appleton, Wis, six weeks
ago. and that the bout with Walters
was just a friendly boxing match.
