Dr. B0gart Has Narrow Escape.

Dr. J. \ BOgart had hair-raising experience and very narrow escape with his life on Tuesday afternoon while making the run from Madison lQ Forrest City in his auto When he lad reached a point near the Kelly Orchard crossing and just west of the home Of MT and Mrs Bob Hardee. ;le doctor lost control of his machine through the failure of the steering gear to work Dr. Bogart turned out of the road al that point upon meet. ing the John W Naylor ear. and when he attempted 10 get back into the road his steering wheel spun around as fl it were on ball bearings. without altering the course of the car in the slightest The machine was wild It rushed forward al the rate of twenty five er thirty miles an hour toward the embaukment of ditch that had recently been dug at that point The machine skidded on the soft earth, then. with lurcA and twist it seemed to make flying leap over the embankment, landing heavily on it's side in the mud and water. while the doctor hung in most unenviable plight over the wind shield The car was smashed and battered almost be- yond repair, and the doctor was so thankful that he had escaped with his life that he came on home afoot and immediately put in his order for another car, which he hopes to receive in q worry tpW days

CALDWELL BANK FAILS
American National Closes Its Doors
Claims Is Solvent

With a cash reserve of % per cent,
and with securities of sufficient value
to pay it's depositors in full, the
officers and directors of the American
National bank in Caldwell Monday
voluntarily turned the institution over
to Fred Brown, national examiner, for
liquidation. The failure of the bank
to open at the usual hour occasioned
not a ripple of excitement, the de-
positors taking philosophical view
view of the situation, born of implic-
it confidence in the present officials
of the bank. The total deposits of
the bank Saturday were $114,000,with
approximately $4,000 in cash on hand
and due from other banks. The last
statement to the comptroller of the
currency gave the total resources as
S284,754.64.
The bank was organized in 1908
by S. D. Simpson, who acted as cash
ier until October of this year, when
he resigned and left the city. His
brother, w. G. Simpson of Meridian,
Miss, acted as president until sue
ceeded by M j. Devers last June. The
peculiar business methods of S. d.
Simpson resulted in heavy withdraw
ais from the institution during his
regime, and were directly responsible
for the assignment of the bank.
The officers and directors are: M. ].
Devers, president; ]. H. Forbes, vice
president; F. G. Hoffman, cashier;
and T. A. Walters, A. w. Porter, M
L. Walker and E. A. Bradshaw.

New Train Schedule

A new time card went into effect
on the Idaho Northern Monday, and
it is about the worst ever. A tri-
weekly mixed train arrives in the
morning, and the motor car runs
every day Boise mail and daily pa
pers are from II to "a hours behind
time At Horseshoe Bend there is
much dissatisfaction, only three mails
being received week The time card
follows: Mixed train leaves Nampa
Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays
at a. m. arriving at Emmett at 10:10.
This train runs to Donnelly and re-
turns the following day, arriving here
at 1850. No change in motor car

Died.

John Tyler died Monday morning
at 6 o'clock at his home east of town
of an attack of heart disease. He
was sick only about Is minutes. His
sudden death was a distinct shock to
his wife and children, as well as to
many friends. Mr. Tyler was born
March 28, 1841, at Buffalo, N Y.
When boy he moved with his par
ents to Racine, Wis, and lived there
until 1873, engaging in the lumber
business. He then moved to Elm
Greek, Neb., engaging in the mer-
camille business, until six years ago,
when he came to Emmett. He was
married to Miss Gertrude Rogers at
Kewanee, Wis, August 1, 1865. To
them were born seven children, all
living except one Those left behind
are a wife and six children: Mrs.
Charles Loibl of Mitchell, Neb., Geo.
and Fred Tyler Of Elm Creek, Neb.,

Surveyors in Field

To still further strengthen the be-
lief that the Northern Pacific means
business, a large crew of engineers
and surveyors outftted at Emmett
last week, buying large quantities of
supplies and leaving orders for other
equipment, including a number of bob
sleds, which would indicate that they
are preparing to conduct a winters
campaign.
The Northern Pacific is no longer
a Hill road There is diversity of
opinion as to who does own it; but it
is known that the Northwestern has
a lease of certain portions of it.

n. P. BUYING RIGHT
0F-WAY
Operations Are in the Squaw
Creek Valley-Surveyors
in Field

That the Northern Pacific railway
company is seeking north and south
line through Idaho by way of the
Squaw creek and Payette valleys is
Indicated by the activity of agents
of that company in securing a right
of-way through the Squaw Creek val
ley.
This information was brought to
town Monday by Rev. w. 0. Shield,
pastor of the Methodist church at
Ola, who stated that among thei re-
cent purchases was that of the Jesse
Demasters ranch nine miles north of
Ola, formerly the Bowman ranch.
1t is understood that a townsite is
to be located at that point and possi-
bly, freight and passenger division.
Other right of way purchases are be-
ing made. Ola people are enthusias-
tic, and see in thee move the fulfill
ment of long cherished dream for a
railroad through one of the richest
valleys IN Idano.
The Index gives the above for what
it is worth. Just why the Northern
Pacific, or any other road seeking a
through line, should want to build
through the Squaw creek valley is
hard to tell. There is no possible way
of getting out of that valley except
by way of Crane creek. The old Bow
man ranch is not owned by Jess De-
masters, but by his father-in-law, Mr..
Bowman Mr.. Demasters, however,
usually transacts the Bowman bust
ness. The Index, however, firmly be-
lieves there is good field for branch
line along Squaw creek, as it would
tap a mighty rich farming, stock
raising and timber country.
