TO SAVE THE BOYS.

In every community there are ar
nest souls who grieve constantly over
the way in which SO many boys are
permitted to drift into evil paths.
The Men and Religion movement, the
S-day campaign Of which is to be
held in Boise in February, makes a
special feature of this problem.
Every n who has this problem
on his soul should be on hand to
hear what the experts have to offer.
There has been enough developed on
the subject in connection with this
movement to warrant the belief that
much good is going to result from
this feature Of the work. Not only
should those already interested be
present to learn what to do and how
to do it, but every man who has any
care for the welfare of the rising
generation should likewise arouse
himself and take an interest in this
work as it shall be presented during
the campaign in the capital city.

(Arco Advertiser)
A marriage that was g surprise to
the entire community was solemnized
last Wednesday evening at 8 o'clock
when Judge T. C. Salt spoke the
words that united the lives of Paul
Thomas and Miss Mabel Hurst. Only
a select few were present at the GER
emony.
The bride is an accomplished young
lady and has been c resident of this
vicinity for the past few years, hav-
ing taught school in this county for
the past few easons The groom is
one of the pioneers of Arco, having
been in business in this city since
the town was first started. He has
conducted a general merchandise
store, hotel, livery stable and has a
large number of acquaintances in this
and the Little Lost valley who will be
surprised to learn that he has en-
barked on the sea of m%atrimony.
A few minutes after the marriage
the news leaked out and the "Seren-
ade Band" made it's appearance at
the home of Mr.. Thomas where they
were invited into the house and were
treated to candy, fruit and cigars.
The Advertiser joins with their
host of friends in wishing Mr.. and
Mrs. Thomas many years of happy
welded life as they journey on to-
gether.

RAILROADS DOING 1T FOR US

AS an example of the tremendous
amount Of advertising which the I'm
ion Pacific and Oregon Short Line
railroads are doing to advertise Ida
no, we wish to mention one item
which these roads have caused to be
published to advertise Idaho potatoes.
A number of eastern papers have
been giving space to an article of a
column and Q half of condensed in
formation about raising potatoes in
Idaho, and we have it from the ad-
vertising department of the above
mentioned roads that had it pub
lished in 1886 newspapers of the east
and middle west, having a combined
circulation of ~3,169,127 subscribers
and an estimated reading list of 49,
845,653 persons.
Such sweeping work as this should
bring results in securing settlers who
become interested in Idaho soil for
various crops besides potatoes.
The dining cars now operating on
these roads have just installed a nov
ell card on which a patron can lay
his order sheet to write, and when
the waiter has taken the order it
leaves the guest with the beautifully
embellished card in his hand with a
picture of an Idaho farm with some
thing like a hundred tons of nice po-
tatoes in the foreground, a picture
of Shoshone Falls under it and some
interesting stories of Jim Bridger and
the Yellowstone park on the back.
While the tourist is waiting for his
order to come he has a good chance
to study the card, and a footnote
informs him that the dining car ON
ductor will furnish him an envelope
in which to mail the card if he wishes
it.
This is the matter printed on the
back of the card:
Jim Bridger's Experience in Yellow
stone National Park.
Jim Bridger was really the first
white man to discover and explore
Yellowstone National park. This was
back in 1884. Bridger told some
tall tales" and yet, in the light of
reports made by those who later ex-
plored this region, they proved to be
not SO wild or improbable as they at
first seemed to be. After his death,
it was suggested that the inscription
over his grave should be, Here lies
Jim Bridger."
One of his favorite stories of the
park was when he sighted an elk and
fired at him. To his surprise moth
ing happened. Time after time, still
creeping closer, he fired his trusty
old Betsy without effect. Finally
he discovered that between him and
the elk was a cliff of glass, through
which he could not only see the elk
three miles away, but which, by it's
lens-like character, made the game
appear within easy rifle shot.
As a mattr of fact, there is a glass
cliff in the park (the Obsidian Cliff
but 1t is far from transparent. Old
Jim knew the glass cliff and drew on
Ibis Imagination for the rest.
Once he found a stream that
Flowed SO swiftly over the rocks that
the friction made the water hot.

STRONGEST MAN
WAS FOUND DEAD
Body Discovered in a Small
Pool of Water Near a
Coal Mine.

New England, n. D.. July 30.-The
people of New England were greatly
shocked when word was brought to
town that John A. Schmidt, the larg-
est and strongest man in the county,
had been found dead in a small pool
OF water, at the coal mine two miles
north of town. AS soon as the news
reached here a score of men in auto
mobiles rushed to the mine where the
body was still lying in the water.
Mr.. Schmidt had been working in
the mine in the morning in
with Otto Phillips and Schmidt's two
brothers. He left h Others at about
$3.50 O'Clock to get a team to do some
surface grading n hat was the last
seen of him alive. The other men
went on with the work. thinking Moth
ing of his disappearance until noon.
After dinner a search was made for
Mr.. Schmidt who they thought was
on the prairie looking for his team.
They found his team and returned to
the mine where they found the dead
man in a small pool of water. He was
lying face downward. There We're no
marks about the water and his death
is shrouded in mystery.
Several different theories have been
advanced as to the aus of his death.
1t was a very warm day and he may
have been the victim of a sunstroke.
The coroner's jury has not met as
yet.
Mr.. Schmidt was a perfect type of
a man. He was 26 years old and was
over six feet and four inches in height
ard was seemingly in perfect health.
He was a quiet and unaSsuming young
ma and a diligent worker. He had a
homestead a few miles north of town.
