Thaw Feels Strain.

Thaw indicated in many ways today
that he is beginning to feel acutely
the strain of his situation and the de.
bate as to its outcome. For several
hours he paced the floor, sometimes
stopping and stamping irritably; al
other times quickening his walk around
the hospital ward almost to run. He
was trying, the prison officials said, to
keep control Of himself, Now and then
he lay on his cot,
When seen by reporters late today
he was sitting on his cot with his head
buried in his hands. He had his coat
off and he WAS perspiring, though the
temperature in his room was not par
ticularly high The remnants of a
dinner sent him by a sympathizinQ
woman in the neigh borhood, Mrs n
Williams, were still on the table.
The slayer Of Stanford White looked
up when the reporters approached and
asked whether the synopsis of Jerome 3
speech to jury in New York on Jan
uary 90. 1908, which he instructed his
lawyer to give out last night, had been
published in full. When assured that
the relevant portions Of it had been he
frowned petulantly and said he would
say nothing more, because it was OBJ
vious that what he wanted to give out
was not accountable.

Conspiracy Charge.

''lf by chance our plans TO secure
Thaw by deportation fall through (and
| can barely imagine such a contingen,
cyl you may be sure there will be a
strong case against him TO bring extra
dition. 1t would not be proper at this
time to say upon just what grounds we
shall move. -
hr. Conger has with him n warrant
charging Thaw and his five deliverers
with conspiracy, but he admitted that
its efficacy was uncertain.
"That is the least of my worries,
though he added.

Thaw was busy man with his cor,
respondence and callers today. Most of
the former was by telegraph and he re-
ceived frequent assurances of support
from relatives and friends. His mother,
Mrs. Mary Copely Thaw, however, had
up to tonight sent him no word as far
as could be learned

announced that the application for the

and would come up for argument in the

''Thaw will surely be returned to
New York state the district attor-

ton, as the Canadian government does
not want him on its hands. If not by
deportation, then by eXtraditon. We
have lot of possibilities TO develop in
both directions; in fact. it is a matter
Of choosing the best one. Thaw should
be back in Matteawan soon. Then we
shall see whether he can escape again.

the officials of the Canadian immigra-
tion service, who have full power tJ act

TNHERE IS section OF a newspaper that comes
home closer to the real life of the people than the
II classified advertising. The dispatches tell of
things that very important, but many of them
distant The classified advertising tells of things that
closely effect the daily lives of home people
One learns of what is going in a town from
reading these columns than from the best edited
stories The housewife is anxious who is advertis
ing for positions servants Working people to
know who desires help. People who own, want buy
sell anything interested in what offered 1t is hard
to find class of people who do not follow these notices
and carefully read these small ads every week.
Hence it is perfectly astonishing how many
one can often get from simple little notice in the ITO
Rent For Sale" and Want" column Anything you
do by personal inquiry is multiplied hundred fold thro
the columns of the favorite home newspaper.
Some people viii put in hours days making inquiries
and running around haphazard when they want to rent
place or sell piece of property. They devote dollars
worth of time when few cents spent in the newspaper
would reach hundred times many people.
This kind of advertising permits the buyer to get
the best price, because he learns whether there IS
to be any competition 1t gives the seller the most advan
tageous trade because he finds whether there is really
demand.
Farmers could do a rushing business, particularly
through the parcel post they would advertise their
products They could develop trade that would pay
Special prices rather than buy through middlernen
The Index want ads time saver and money
saver because they reach the people of this end of the

Is a Fine Road.

The improvement OF the road nortn
from the end of Washington street TO
the river bridge, which has just been
completed by Road Supervisor Char
lie Anderson, is splendid job. After
the grading was done, layer OF sand
was put on the surface and it is be-
lieved the roadbed will be free from
mud in winter and dust in summer.
The work on the street, which was
also done by Mr.. Anderson, cost the
city IL cents a running foot. Mayor
Cummings is so well pleased with 1t
that he is urging the organization OF
benefit road improvement districts In
town for the purpose of treating the
streets in the same manner. He es-
Inmates the expense will not exceed
10 cents per front foot on 6O-foot
streets and II cents on S0-foot streets.
His idea is for the lots benefited to
pay for the Improvement. 1t appears
to be a good plan. What do you think
about it?

used Sheep Dip for Spray.

Jack Little is telling a good story
on Hiram Ballantyne, the sheep man
of Ola. Hiram, it appears, is well
versed in sheepology, but sadly lack
ing in knowledge of fruit growing. A
year ago last spring, he was ordered
bv the fruit inspector to spray his
apple trees for scale. In deep distress
he went to Jack Bruce for advice.
What Jack knows about orchardlng
wouldn't make dent large enough to
be noticed by the naked eye. But ne
looked wise and said: "Oh, that's easy.
Just get a spray pump and take that
barrel of sheep dip tnat was left over
from your last years dipping opera
tions, and sprinkle. your trees, and III
bet YOU any amount not scale VIII
survive" Hiram followed directions,
and every mothers son of scale
turned up his toes to the big butte,
but it pretty nearly killed the trees
also. The trees pulled through, how
ever, and we're this year loaded to the
breaking point with as fine crop OF
apples as you ever saw. And they
are 100 per cent clean. And now Hi
rams faith in Jack Bruce's knowledge
of pomology and scaleology is un-
bounded.

mated it will be in the neighbbrhood
of $4,000. The sewer complete Will

IN THE SWAMP
LANDS
An Excellent Quality Claimed to
be Flowing at Block
House

Is there a deposit of asphalt un-

saws there is fine quality flowing
from what is generally known as a
"pot hole" near the Block House

as coal and entirely free from grit.
He is confident it is asphalt A sam
pie will be sent to the state university
for analysis, and if it shall prove to
be what Mr.. Barringer confidently
believes it is, it will be valuable

BEAVER co. SELLS OUT
Disposes of Idaho Holdings to Idaho
Oregon Co.

The Beaver River Power company
has been sold to the Idaho Railway,
Light & Power company. The deal
was made some time ago and the first
payment was made, as is supposed,
at about the time S. L. Fuller, who is
at the head of the Boise traction in
terests, Sinclair Mainland, and New
York associates of Fuller were here
last summer.
The Beaver River company recently
changed its corporation in this section
to the Idaho Power, & Light company
for the purpose, it is now understood,
of segregating that portion of the
Beaver River interests in this section
from the interests of the Beaver River
in other sections of the country and
for the purpose of more readily facil-
itating the transfer to the Idaho-O Ore
gon company.

Christ, and depicting the suffering Of
the early Christian martyrs during the
reign Of Nero in Rome
This picture was produced in and

tunes, scenery and situations are his
