PLANS ARE FURTHERED
FOR CITY GYMNASIUM
ASSURANCES GIVEN THAT LONG
NEEDED INSTITUTION WILL
BE HAD BEFORE LONG.
City CounciImen and Members OF
School Board Working Together, and
Many Citizens Arc Taking Lively In
terest in Movement.

AT well attended meeting of busi-
ness men. students of the high school
and others interested in the plans on
foot for the securing of gymnasium
for Wallace, held Wednesday evening
in the library building, more progress
toward the desired goal was made than
at any time of the previous meetings
or as the outcome of attempts that
the past, with the same object in view
Plans were outlined, and the discus.
sion that followed led to the firm con-
viction that the long sought boon is to
be reality in a comparatively short
time.
1t is believed the city council and the
school board of District No. s, working
together and supported by the en-
couragement of all classes Of citizens,
will be able to secure a gymnasium
eventually permanent home for it,
and all the equipment that a modern
institution contains, and that the time
for the realization of these hopes Is
not far distant
A. Fl. Featherstone, representing the
city council and James f. Clyde, city
attorney and member of the board of
school directors, spoke along the line
of plan that was heartily commend
ed by all parents. as the most practical
and one that would assure greater
benefits than any that had been con-
sidered
Mr.. Featherstone believes that a
change in the Idaho statutes can be
brought about which will permit funds
to be raised by taxation, these funds
being available for the purpose of
building and equippng gymnasium
sufficient to the needs Of Wallace for
all future time The school board g
members, realizing the many advant-
ages to the community, would be glad
to advocate such provision from the
districts funds If not barred by pres
ent laws and it Is more than probable
that the present or any future city
council would entertain the same
views Mr.. Featherstone pledged his
efforts in the direction Of drafting and
working for the passage Of a law
amending the statutes as indicated, and
was very sure that its passage could
be easily effected.
Mr.. Clyde was equally optimistic as
to the results of efforts in this direc-
tion. and promised the movement his
hearty support. G. D. Brock. superin-
tendent Of schools, c. w. Gibbs. Roy
Kingsbury, George Rohannon, Ernest
Murphy and others made short ad-
dresses in favor of prompt and decisive
action.
! AS a result Of the Wednesday night
meeting 1t is probable that an organi-
zation will be formed at once, with the
promotion of indoor amateur athletics
as its object, leading up to the formine
Ct permanent organization that will
secure and equip the gymnasium with
in the next year. it is hoped by all who
we're at the meeting. Steps have al
ready been taken to secure the use of
academy hall. the most available place
in the city, and these efforts have met
with encouragement by the lessees of
he hall.

PRACTICE GAME SHOWS
GOOD FOOT BALL PROSPECTS
Wallace Team Promises to. Be Best
That Has Represented School
for Many Seasons.

If it had done nothing more, the
practice game between the Seniors and
Juniors Of the Wallace high school,
held last Friday it would be hailed
with delight as the means of showing
what has been the contention of the
boys who aspire to places on the team
since the opening of school, that this
year will see Wallace in the field with
winning team. Size, strength, expert
ence and determination are all with
the players, and Coach tUterbach is
confident that out Of the number who
aspire to be on the team, he will pick
an A 1 bunch, and have plenty of re-
serve material left, besides.
The game was won by the seniors
and sophomores, playing under the
name of the seniors. Ernest Murphy
made three tonchdowns. His "kid
brother" Munroe, made a splendid
showing upon his first entry into the
game, and gives promise of ability to
uphold the athletic honor of both the
Murphy family and the high school.
Wesley Howarth, another brother of a
last year star, played with the Juniors
showed up well. Will and Nathan
Barnard, Chester Howarth. Roland
Bernier, Fred Weyer and Raymond
Franz all played good, clean and clever
football and were in surprising form.

practice had,

Many Speakers Coming.

l. Bringing reports of the most encour-
aging character, and enthusiastic over
the outlook for the republican ticket,
so far as Shoshone county is concern
ed, the members of the county central
committee and the republican cand-
dates for the various county Offices
met in Wallace Saturday evening, and
held a meeting in the Office of the pro-

siding,
From the reports given, it was appar
ent that not one of the committee
doubts that the republican ticket will
be successful, and that every candidate
will be elected by the old time repub-
lican majorities. Plans for an active
campaign, in which the committee
men and candidates will cooperate
were discussed at length While none
viewed the prospects in any but the
most favorable light, it was the de-

in Treasury by Selling Candy.
Atn well attended sale of home made
candy held in the school building Wed
nesday afternoon, the junior class of
the Wallace high school gained con-
siderable sum to be added to their
treasury. The sale was opened when
the lower grades were dismissed, and
the result was surprising in that all
-the stock" was disposed of before the
high school students had an oppor-
tunity to purchase
So successful was the sale that a
decision was made to repeat it this
afternoon The proceeds are apprec-
lated by the juniors, whose funds were
depleted by the demands for entertain
ments and other necessary expendi-
lures during the latter part of last
year.

HUSBAND AND
WIFE REUNITED
Reconciliation Brought About
in South Amboy Court.
ypecial 70 the EVENING NE VS..

South Amboy, Sept. IA charge of
desertion and non support by Mrs. Kate
Massey heard before Judge Birming-
ham resulted in her husband being ap-
pretended and placed in the lookup IN
this city Thursday evening about III
O'Clock. A rather sharp practice was
INDUCED by Mrs. Massey to secure the
arrest of her husband who resided IN
Tottenville, N. Y. The wife who was
STAYING with her mrother, Mrs. Kane,
on Bergen hill, widow of the late Pat
rick Kane, went over to Tottenville and
persuaded her husband to accompany
her to South Amboy and shortly after
leaving the trolley car on Stevens ave-
nue. he was arrested. Last night at the
hearing the defendant was represented
by Attorney Thomas Brown, of Perth
Amboy. Mrs, Massey was placed on the
witness stand and gave her testimony,
after which the defendant made a state
ment saying he had done the best he
could under the circumstances as his
wages were small, being only $1.65 per
day and that he was willing to make a
home for his wife to the best Of his
ability, but he wanted his wife to live

moved a dismissal of the case on the
ground of want Of jurisdiction, as Mrs.
Massey had gained a residence in the
state Of New York and that she and
her children had no claim on this city.
Judge Birmingham refused to entertain
the motion, but said he was willing that
the husband and wife settle their diff
hculties themselves. The superinten-
dent Of the Tottenville Terra Gotta
Works, who was present, advised the
husband and wife in the matter and a
reconciliation was effected, the young
people who have been married about
three years and have two children
agreed to settle in Perth Amboy and
commence housekeeping over again, they
having been separated only four or five
weeks. AS the Case developed it was
very evident that the greater part OF
the trouble was caused by too much
mother-in-law on the side of both hus-
band and wife.
