FINE DRAMA Of
CANADIAN WOODS
1.-THE WOLF" WELL PRESENTED
BY CAPABLE COMPANY
AT BAUGH'S.

"a splendid drama, splendidly pre-
sented and well patronized." was what
was said of 'The Wolf which held the
boards at Baugh's last night. The
last part of the remark referred TO
the appreciative audience that well
filled the house, and it shows how
merit does not go unrewarded by thea
tre-g -goers in Shoshone.
There were six people in the cast
capable actors every one, from Fred
r. Caniway, the leading man. to Clyde
Watson. whose part carried the only
touch Of humor-just enough to sea-
son the otherwise heavy offering.
The play is taken from a popular
novel Of the Canadian woods and
in which the heroine. Hilda,
the despised daughter of an eccentric
Did man, is beset with difficulties, but
preserving always a sweet innocence.
IN every lire the play is as wholesome
rs il is strong.

MADMAN DIRECTS
An AUTO DRIVER
AT POINT or REVOLVER cow
PELS HALEY CHAUFFEUR TO
PROCEED TO SHOSHONE WITH
HIS MACHINE.
(Hailey Times.)

! Driving a high-powered car for 40
miles with a slight little woman in i'm
minent danger of her life and a mad
man armed with an automatic 10-shot
pistol as passengers may not be an
extraordinary experience in the life of
a chauffeur But il is one that he
is not likely to forget.
Joe Storey of the Storey Bros. auto
garage in this city had that expert
ence last Friday.
Answering a telephone call at his
garage he filled his gasoline tank and
drove to Dot Aliens resort on River
street where Miss Allen and her
Romeo Jack Boulware got in the ton
neau and told the chauffeur to drive
below Bellevue.
About a mile south of that city
Miss Allen told the chauffeur she
did not wish to go farther. Boulware
demonstrating the chauffeur stopped
the car.
Boulware said that he had ordered
the car, and the chauffeur must drive
to ShOshone and as fast as he could
And he drew the gun from his over
coat pocket but Miss Allen grabbed
it and ealmed Boulyare, who wran-
gled with her as they went.
AT High Bridge where the waste from
the Magic Dam flows INTO the creek
and on to Wood River Boulware told
Miss Allen that she had queered him
with his mother and sisters and that
if he did the right thing he would
kill her, throw her corpse off the
bridge and kin himself, and that he
was going to do that very thing.
Miss Allen having hold of the gun
in Boulware's pocket the latter could /
not get it out
At Shoshone Boulware ordered the /.
chauffeur to drive 10 Dr. DilPs /
whose wife is his sister. saying that (
he would kin Dot anu nlmseh.
The chauffeur drove to McFalPs !
hotel instead and Boulware got out /
and the woman handed the gun to
Storey who immediately started the
car back to Haley His water gave
out, however, and ne had other trou-
bles besides thoroughly looking the
ear over. so that when about 10 miles
1ut the car being stopped a horse
nan was seen coming from Shoshone.
Believing il was Boulware the
chauffeur started his car on high
speed and soon lost sight of the pur-
;uer.
The day after Miss Allen was called
Up by long distance phone and Boul-
ware told her he had followed on
horseback intending to kill her and
hat he would get her yet.
BOulware has been Miss Aliens
lover for years. and has been re-
eatedly ordered out of Haley by the
heriff. He never comes by day but ,

CHICAGO. Oct. 2S.-Not more than
so cents reduction in the cost of a
suit of mems clothes could be the out
side benefit to the family man vino
is battling with the problem of living
expenses according to the clothing
manufacturers of Chicago, where in
less than a decade the industry has
become the largest in the United
States and in the world. The domes-
tic mills have priced their fabrics for
next spring at about 10 per cent less
than year ago, but that does not
mean of course that the finished gar
ment will cost 10 per cent less. About
3l5 yards will make a suit, and the
reduction in the cost of the fabric
viii be about "A cents, so that if so
cents be taken off last years prices
the family man will be getting the
full benefit of the tariff reduction
"As a matter of fact the labor and
other costs are higher than they were
- X ago, so that mems clothing is
coseIug' about as much to make as it
did then" said John b. Waldo, an au-
thority in the dry goods retail world.
Domestic mills have priced their fab
rics for next spring at about 10 per
cent less than year ago. A usual value
for febric entering into a medium
price suit is s1.25 a yard. 1t has been
the policy of the best manufacturers
to increase the worth of their product
than to make a lower price There
are some opportunities for lower prices
and these are either in the lower
grades of clothing where the labor cost
is small and in the highest grades

says that while she would prefer
Haley if she did as well she must
return to Alaska.
Juneau is a big mining camp When
she went there last March it had only
1900 people; when she left it had

FOR TROUT LEFT

GAME WARDEN BARBER TO SAVE
FISH THAT GET STRANDED
IN WINTER.

State Game Warden O. II. Barber
was in Shoshone yesterday arranging
I for the better protection of trout that
get into the irrigation bitches. Loca
fishermen told the officer that large
numbers of the fish are found this
year in the artificial streams. They
must perish when the water is turned
off unless ways and means are devised
to save them.
One local sportsmen told of two
fishermen who a day or two ago
caught the limit of the law from one
of the Idaho Irrigation bitches seven
miles west of Shoshone. The fish We're
fine eight-inch fellows that would de-
light the heart of an angler taking
them.
Barber thinks he can enlist the Of
ficers of the irrigation company to
turn the water off gradually from the
bitches. When this is done it has
been found that trout in the bitches
will Immediately start up stream and
save themselves. II his method is not
wholly successful it ~ the intention
to seine the streams before the water
is all drained out and save the fish
in that way for their return to the
water if that can be done, or II that
be Impractical to sell them.
The state warden went TO the Lost
river country to look after his inter-
ests there. He is greatly impressed
with the possibility of introducing cat
fish into the waters of the Upper |
Snake.
He said he had decided against the
proposition of introducing bass here .
