TOWN OF G0DING LIKELY TO
GET GREAT METHODIST
SEAT OF LEARNING.

GOODING, June 28.-A large sun
of money has been raised towarc
the foundation of great 4AethOdist
University at Gooding, Ex-Governor
Frank R. Gooding heading the
subscription with cash and lands
worth S150,000. The gift was an
nounced at a public meeting in
Gooding last night. 1t was said
that Fred w. and Thos. H. Good
ing, his brothers, had made large
gifts also toward the same
foundation. Altogether more than
quarter of million dollars will
be raised, it was stated, through
the generosity of the Gooding fam
lily and in and around the, town that
bears their name from other don
Ors.
The princely gifts of the Good
ings will not surprise those who
know them. The founder Of the
town, the Ex-Governor, has long
had in view some such institution
of usefulness here. The recent
meeting of the Pocatello District
Conference of the Methodist
Church caused him to act at once,
with the result that although it
constitutes one of the greatest
public benefactions ever made in
the State OF Idaho, he and his
friends easily raised the large sum
in a very few days.
The understanding is that these
gifts are 10 be augmented with
$l50,009 more out OF the church |
funds set aside for the purpose of
providing buildings for a seat of |
learning.
The details have by no means
been worked out, but Gooding the
town seems In a fair way to get
what GoGdlng the man has gone
So vigorously after.
The prime object for which the
meeting was caj,td was to discuss
county division. Delegations were
present from IIageTman, Rupert
and Hepburn. The attendance was
large. L. H. See, Hepburn, candi-
date for County Assessor, and Will
liam II. Kennedy, Hagerman, can
didate for County Commissioner,
both Republicans, were present to
pledge support to division in their
campaign.

MACHINE FARMING
ON CANAS PRAIRIE
(Canas COurier.)

Already this spring five power
plowing outfits have been shipped
to Camas Prairie and judging from
the work Of represe7 tatives of
traction outfits, this will be dou-
bled before fall. It will take some
little time to find out just which is
the proper machine for Camas Pra-
irie, but it is almost certain that
the Catepiller, which will be in
stalled by the Newton Brothers, will
do the work If a cheaper outfit
works satisfactorily it will be the
more popular
The large Caterpillar outfits will
cost about $4,000 laid down here,
but this is out of reach of the
ordinary farmer. If tractor cost
ing up to $4,000 proves a winner,
many farmers will put them to
work and sell off a few of their
horses, which always prove rather
a burden during the winter when
there is little work for them to
do, and especially will this be true
when the railroad supplants the
teamsters from Good'ng, Haley and
Bellevue.
There are so many arguments
in favor of power farming that |
persons in a position to now say
hat every rancher having from |
320 acres to a section will find it |
more profitable to use gasoline in
place of horse feed in putting in
crops.

LENA SPEARS WAS
VICTIM OF TANSY
RAY WEAVER, ARRESTED All
WALLA WAILA, IsIPLICAT-
ED IN HER DEATH.

Lena Spears, the young woman
of Acequia, whose death occurred
last Thursday under suspicious cir
cumstances, did not die from eating
poisoned candy, as was reported,
but from taking an overdose of
tansy. In the same package in
which she received the drug came
also a quantity of cheap candy.
Children of the family of her
brother-in-law, Harry Benson,
where she lived, ate of the candy
also, with no i'll effects. It came
the day before her death.
The package, which bore the
postmark of Bull, was addressed
in the same handwriting as letters
from the same place which the
young woman had received from
time TO time. The writer is said to
have Eeen Ray Wilson, alias Ray
Weaver, who disappeared from
the neighborhood of his home. The
sherlff's department was apprised
Of the death imme diately and Dep
uty F. w. Chapman took charge
of the investigation. He learned
that Wilson had departed on a
west bound train from Bliss the
same day that the package had
been received by the girl. He was
traced to WallaWalla, Wash. where
kilograms had been awaiting him
but rot called for. His destination
was said to be Eureka, in the same
state. Chapman Immediately took
uD the trail, being instructed by
Sheriff Zug to exhaust every means
fr the apprehension of the fugi-
i've.
Dr.. Zeller made tho post mortem
that revealed tansy as the cause
of death. 1t was said that the
young woman's condition did not
reveal any reason for using the
drug.
The Accused.
The Deputy with The accused
young man arrived in Shoshone
Tuesday morning on No. IS. The
prisoner is a fine speciman Of
physical manhood, standing full
six feet in his stockings. His clear
eyes reflect no sinister light. His
features are regular and his head
we'll poised. He was plainly dis
5ressed and wretched.
His father, D. C. Weaver, who is
a Buhl farmer, being advised Of
he trouble of his son, came to
Shoshone on the first train that
could bring him here, being ac-
by one of his sons-in-
aw. They are well to DO people.
The father said there are ten child
zen in the family. His first act
was to help in cleaning up the son,
lfter giving him a shave. For the
Joy the father brought along two
suit cases of clothing. The father,
who was sorely afflicted in the
conduct of his son, said he left
he boys mother heart broken.
This boy" said the father, ''has
heretofore been employed as ex-
.ress agent at Minidoka. Another

enger on the Minidoka-Buhl run.

FAMILY TELEPHONE
ORGANIZATION

Modern conditions have
brought about the need for
what might be called a long
distance telephone organiza-
ton of the family. when
in doubt. telephone is an
axiom that ought to be i'm
pressed upon every member
of the family going on
journey, or to live at a dis
lance. The mother can reach
her children at school, and
children should be required
to telephone home occas-
ionally. When husband or
wife set out on a journey a
telephone itinerary should be
jotted down and left behind.
Members of the family
travelling should not be con-
tent with providing means by
which those left at home
may reach them quickly, but
should communicate with
the home frequently, and
particularly when there is
bad weather. transportation
delay. disturbance of public
order, or any other unusual
condition where the traveller
happens to be. Bad news
flies fast, and is magni6ed by
distance. These things cause
apprehension at home.
No other medium conveys
the personal assurance and
causes such peace of mind
asthe long distance telephone
talk can give.
