MANY SUITS FOLLOW.
Raised the Dam and Flooded Prop.
erty ON Both Sides of River.

Within short time action will be
begun by the American Falls Town
site company against the Kuhns for a
large amount in damages.
This action will be but one of a
number which are the outgrowth Of
the raising Of the dam at American
Falls.
The dam was raised six feet which
resulted in flooding great tracts Of
territory ON both sides OF the river.
A number of suits have already been
lodged by ranchers whose lands have
been affected.
Engineer Ed. 8. Smith and r. B.
Mcconnell Of Gooding have for some
time been busy making surveys for
the Townsite company preliminary to
action at law to recover damages al
legged to have been sustained by the
flooding Of lots and other property be-
longing to the Townsite company.
Among other properties damaged
by the raise of the dam was the beau
tiful island. This island of about 70
acres was one OF the beauty spots
about American Falls. BY the raising
OF the dam the island IL reduced from
70 acres TO acres.
There is no bitterness manifest be-
tween the Kuhns and those persons
whose property have been damaged.
The whole matter will be thrashed
out In court for the purpose Of ascer-
tanning damage sustained.
Bissell & Baum are attorneys for
the T0wnsite company. - GQoding

AN Even BREAK.
POcatellO Gets One and Twin Falls
Evens Up ON Sunday.

Twin Falls and the Gem State team
from Pocatello broke even In the two
games played here Saturday and Sun
day. The visitors took the first game,

the Sunday exhibition, 7 to 4. Both
games were played under bad weather
conditions. but the fans turned out
we'll. the Sunday crowd being much
larger than had been expected.
Saturdays game was replete with
errors contributed by both teams, Po-
catello having six to account for and
Twin Falls having seven, the latter
proving costly Ia the scoring.
I In. Sundays game Faulkner was ef-
fective with the stick, getting two
timely hits and three runs. Bursing
put two over. and McClear and Bailey
each one. Kiersted's fielding was mot
hampered by the cold weather, and he
picked five from the clouds, his one
error occurring under extremely ad-
verse conditions. Bursting pitched .

support by Chaplin and r. Patten.

ney at Wells.

In last Tuesdays issue of The
Times occurred the first chapter IL
sensational turn to a bootleggine
trial. Last week F. A. Hutto was put
ON the stand for the defense and
stated that McConville, the states
chief witness, had been indicted in
Oklahoma for selling booze to In
dams. He stated farther that Nc
Conville had promised to leave the
state with him and had accepted
money for going with him to Wells,
New where McConviile had made an
af103v1t stating that his evidence
against the men on trial had been
rnAHufactured. His testimony created
= EreA& sensation and for a time made
thMg1 look black for the state and
thf ntosecution.
MCConvflle, however, stoutly de-
MED the story of his indictment and
OF the affidavit alleged to have been
made ct Wells. The sheriff's office
BY wire received word from Oklahoma
that while the records were burned in
that county that the sheriff there for
many years had no recollection OF
any arrest having been made of Nc
Con$1ue for any offense and giving
him . good reputation.
Getting on the train with Sheriff
Vauausdeln, McConville visited Wells
last week and appeared before the
notary before whom the affidavit had
been made OF the alleged McConville
confesqion. Editor Triplett, of the
Wells atate Herald, the notary, upon
seeing McConvi1le stated that he was
not the man who signed the affidavit
His description fitted that OF Attorney
Hutto. who was that same night ar
rested at Wells, where he appeared
for some purpose which can only be
conjectured. The charge made
against him will be prosecuted in
Elko county In Nevada. II that
charge fails to stick he may be
brought back to the city to face an
other serious charge Of perjury.
The end of the affair is not yet In
sight and the state is after the men
who are supposed to have furnished
the money to get McConville out of
the state.

Saturday Night, June 9TH.

The Germania opera house will
again be opened to the public on Sat.
urday evening. The Improvement
company has made some extensive
improvements to the building and it
is in much better condition than be-
fore it was removed to its present To-

to accommodate public speakers and
entertainers has been built, new floors
laid, and where the plastering was bad
new plaster has been put on. The en-
tire west roof has been reshingled and
new steps to the entrance built. The
cement foundation is very substantial,
and when the floor to the basement is
completed very suitable place for
stock shows and the like will have
been provided. Even after the opera
house is completed the Improvement
company will have many opportuni-
ties of renting the Germania. Man

Minnie Hofert.

Herbert Fuller, the accommodating
clerk in the grocery department of
the Balle-Brodersen store, and Miss
Minnie Hofert surprised their friends
by being quietly married at Dow City
last Sunday morning. While it was
generally known that the wedding was
to take place in the near future, not
one of their friends were aware that
it was to happen so soon, so we'll did
the young people keep their secret.
The happy young couple left Deni-
son on an early train Sunday morn
ing and went to Dow City, where they
were married by Rev. Joseph Stephen,
pastor of the Methodist church at
that place, at o'clock. 1t was not
long before the news leaked out and
friends in Denison were told of the
marriage.

STATE COMMISSION
FOR KIR0N ROAD
Board Decides to Leave Matter Of
Choosing Road to kiron With
State Road Commission.
HEARD PETITIONS YESTERDAY
Many Citizens From kiron and Stock
holm Township Appear Before
Board on Road Matter.

The board of supervisors put in a
very busy afternoon on Tuesday, when
the matter of listening to petitions
for changes in the official county
roads" came up. The road leading
from Deloit to Kiron was discussed
the greater part of the afternoon.
Early in the morning citizens from
kron and immediate vicinity arrived
in Denison. Later in the day some
sixteen or eighteen more came down
in autos and presented the section
line road proposition to the board.
Those interested in the Newcom
hill road, to the number of thirty, al
so appeared before the supervisors
and presented their claims. Speeches
We're made for the section line road
by Messrs. E. P. Sievers, Will Linberg
and Ben Beaman, while for the New
com road Messrs. S. N. Sandstrom and
John Riggleman appeared.
The Kiron contingent claim the Sec
ton line road from kiron to DenisOn
is four miles shorter than the New
com hill road and the other side of
the controversy say the NeWcOm hill
road can be made and maintained at
considerable less expense.
The board of supervisors decided
to call in the state commission and
expert engineer and place the matter
in their hands. The commission will
be asked to visit the roads at the ear
liest possible moment, as both high
ways are in need of repairs.

Memorial day was fittingly OBJ
served in Denison last Friday, both
at Oakland cemetery in the forenoon
and at the Presbyterian church in the
afternoon.
The procession was formed on West
Broadway at $50 under the super
vision of J. B. Mcclellan, who act
Ell as marshal. The parade was an
orthodox memorial day parade and
was made up Of the Sons of Veterans
Women's Relief Corps, civic societies
and best of all, the veterans of the
grand army, who rode in autos. The
early morning shower put the roads
in such poor condition that many who
had planned to be present at the Gem
etery were unable to do so. On the
arrival of the procession at Oakland
cemetery the program as planned was
carried out. The quartet sang beau
tiful selection as the first number on
the program. John l.. Richardson,

After this the Sons of Veterans fired

comrades the procession made its
way back to the city.

in the First Presbyterian church and

be imagined that because they are not
here their lives and services are not
of vital influence in sustaining the
government and its institutions. AL
though they will pass from sight they
will still live in memory and their
lives will be an inspiration to on
coming generations and a guarantee
that the work which they so nobly
begun will be perpetuated.

Splendid Address to Glass.

Teachers Certificates in Nor
NAL Course Department

On last Wednesday evening, the
members of the class OF 1913, of the
Denison High School, together with
relatives and friends gathered at the
Methodist church to hear President
Seerey, OF the Iowa State Teachers
College, in his mastery address to
the class.
The church was we'll filled with an
attentive audience, all of whom were
greatly Impressed with the speaker OF
the evening. The address was fine.
President Seerley in speaking to the
members of the class urged all who
could possibly to do so to further their
education by attending some college
or university. He was of the opinion
that every young man and woman
should follow course of study and be
efficient in any line which they in
tend to follow. He told of the bene-
fits that are derived from college
education, and before he finished his
address, we doubt whether a single
member of the class were not willing
to make the effort to attend some
college or university.
At the close of President Seerley's
address, Superintendent E. w. Fel'
lows made a few very appropriate
remarks, and did not fail to mention
the Misses Albert and Giss, who re-
ceived teachers certificates in the
normal course. This is a new depart
ment in the high school and these
young ladies are the first to receive
certificates.
On behalf of the school board, Mr..
Albert Helsley, President OF the
Board presented the diplomas to the
members of the class.
