ATTRACTIONS AT THE COM
ING FAIR.
Plans Now Being Made for the Excav-
alton of the Big Tank Mt the Fair
Grounds Next Week.

Instead of the old accustomed saw

lures, the ring will be a sea of wa
ter when the public gaZes on the water
carnival show of Rice & Dore that
will be seen here during the fair, Sep
tember 1927.

Moscow now completing the arrange
ments for the big feature amusements
that will be brought here direct from
Spokane following the close of the
fair there.
One of the plans to be completed
the coming week at the fair grounds
will be the excavation of the big pit
u by % feet which will hold $4,000
gallons of water and accommodate 80
people. Neptune's daughter is the fea-
ture spectacular performance that
will be put ON by Rice & Dore in
which the players will rise and sink
in the water at will, much to the mys-
tification of the spectators.
In addition to the water carnival
features, there will be 10 big shows
on the grounds including Bugger Reds
wild west show giving Texas ranch
scenes of riding, etc.
The big carnival attractions will be
one Of the most novel forms of amuse-
ments ever brought to Moscow and
will prove an exceptionally fine en-
tertainment for visitors.

petit larceny he heard yesterday after

$3.50 and six months in the county Jail.
In case the prisoners fail to raise the
amount of their fine their nocturnal
raid of Tuesday night on the wheat
pile of Gus Anderson will cost them
just 305 days in the county jail.
Satisfied of Guilt.
1t was not until Judge Morgareidge
had satisfied himself conclusively Of
the defendants guilt that the long jail
sentence was imposed. He with Coun-
ty Attorney Nisbet and Deputy Sheriff
Sterling secured the same mule team
and wide-tire wagon employed by the
defendants in hauling the stolen grain
to town and drove out to the scene of
the alleged stealing this morning for
a further investigation of the matter.
The mule tracks and those of the
wagon were found to have been made
by the same outfit and to correspond
exactly to the description offered in
the trial yesterday by Mr. Anderson,
the complaining witness. A sample of
the wheat that was sold at the Moscow
feed yard was also taken along and
no trouble at all was found in Identify
ing it with that in the pile from which
it was alleged to have been taken.
Judge Morgareidge stated this after
noon that the thievery with which Hall
and Harris were charged was the bold
est ever known to him. 1t developed
this morning that the men entered the
fields within few hundred yards of
he owners houses and loaded the
grain before dark

debate work will receive more atten-
ton
Agricultural Department.
In the agricultural department the
Improvements and changes will not be
so noticeable since they have been in
progress there for the past four years.
New stock, however, will be found on
the varsity farm, the dairy herd in
particular having been increased by
the addition of a number of high
grade Jerseys and Guernseys. A num-
ber of new horses also have be add
ed to the herd for work in the animal
husbandry department. A department
of poultry which promises to win much
popularity this year has been inst al
ed and will be opened for its first reg
ular work this fall.
Has Splendid Future.
In view of the rapid advancement
and progress of the University of Ida
ho within the past few years and es-
pecially in the past year its future is
for surprise that in spite of its COM
parative youth the institution is rapid
ly winning the confidence of the entire
state and will soon lay claim to the
hearty support of all sections.
The University of Idaho has decid-
ed advantage over many other state
universities of its age in that II, being
the only educational institution of fill
collegiate rank in the state, has no
competitor for students or appropria-
tions. Again it has still greater ad-
vantage in having all departments of
instruction combined under one head
and strongly unified under a central
control.
University's Wealth.
The wealth of the University of Ida
ho is far in excess of what is common
ly supposed by people who are not
acquainted with its sources
of revenue and its various endowment
funds. To say nothing of the state
aid which the university receives every
year, fluctuating from time to time in
accordance with it's demands, the In
stitution has a splendid income from
federal funds amounting to approxi-
mately $4,000 yearly. In endowment
the university is one of the wealthiest
in the northwest having a permanent
in land grants and federal
funds of more than $6,290,000 This
amount will continue to grow as the
and increases in value

20 new instructors including some hall
dozen heads Of departments having
been employed to take the places OF
old ones who have left since last June
1t will be the first session ever opened
by an acting president, and 1t bids fair
to be the record session both In at
tendance and enthusiasm.
Never before has the college year
opened with such extensive improve
ments in progress on the campus. The
new athletic stadium is almost COM
pleted and this in itself Is enough to
inspire every loyal student with great
er pride in his alma mater. The old
ungainly board walks are fast being
replaced by new cement ones located
with view to more symetrical ap-
pearance. New drives are being con-
structed in front of all of the universi-
ty buildings. A better system of park
ing is being planned. Unsightly hol-
lows are being filled. Ackward ridges
are being leveled Bare spots on the
campus are being seeded or turfed.
The old troublesome heating system is
being replaced by modern plant up
to-date in every respect.
Many improvements.
A new hardwood floor has been laid
in the gymnasium. Every roof on the
campus has been re-painted and hun
dreds of feet of indoor woodwork have
been newly stained and vanished.
The new north wing of the Administra-
ton building has been completed at an
expense of almost 100000 and will af-
ford ample room for class work in all
which have heretofore
been crowded. In it is the new audi
torium which is the pride of the cam
pus as well it may be. There is none
better in a radius of many thousand
miles,
Library has been Enlarged.
The library has been enlarged since
last June by the addition of dozen
new steel book cases and plans for
further improvement in new books
and additional equipment necessitating
an expenditure of several thousand
dollars are being made for the ensu-
employed in the library. An additional

FEDERAL PLUMS
SOON DISTRIBUTED
NOW THAT TARIFF ISSUE is OUT
OF THE WAY IDAHO APPOINT
MENTS MAY DRAW ATTEN-
TION.
Warning fractional Democracy Of Idaho
Has Caused No End Of Trouble
to Wilson Administration.
By Nose Keeter.

That definite word is expected from
the national administration at no late
date disposing of Idaho federal ap-
pointments that have been held up for
a long period by reason of the fac
tional war of the Idaho democracy, is
the opinion of many democrats who
have been keeping in close touch with
these affairs.
Principal interest in federal appoint
ments centers around the Moscow
pcstmastership and in the appointment
CT district attorney and United States
marshall. The view is now held that
since the tariff measure has been dis
posed of and senate members and adj
ministration heads are relieved of wor-
ry from this source, that the question
of pending appointments will be speed
lily disposed Of, An. evidence of this
came recently with the announcement
of the confirmation in the senate of the
appointment of postmaster at Seattle
which had been hanging fire for some
time
Democrats Greatly Divided.
Idaho politicians are known to be
more divided than ever over federal
appointments and the administration,
it is believed, is becoming embarras-
sed by the factional fight and it is not
that some word Of decision
by the administration may he forth
coming any day.
According to dispatches from Wash
ington, candidates for the appointment

MANGLED BODY OF PFILANTHROPIST FOUND
NEAR RAILROAD TRACK AT PELHAM BAY.
LOVED HIS EAST SIDE FRIENDS
Though Elected Congressman From His District
Never Was Able to Take His Seat-Became
Deranged Year Ago.

NEW YORK, Sept. 1S.-The whole
east side in New York City is mourn
ing today for its idol. The blow which
fell among them is felt even more
than the death of Mayor Gaynor.
Timothy D. Sullivan, representative
Of the 18th New York congressional
district, is dead. His body was badi!
-angled and was found beside The
railroad tracks at Pelham Bay. Sui
liyan was known to thousands Of
friends as sBig Tim" He disappeared
from the home of his brother on the
early morning of August 81. 1t is be-
lieyed he was struck by the train the
day he disappeared.
Loved on the BOwery.
New York's famous Bowery was
hard hit by the news of the death OF
big Tim" He was best loved in this
district where thousands of residents
profited by his generosity. The body
lies in the morgue at East 26th street
1t was identified by Lawrence Multi
gan, his half brother.
Sullivan suffered a mental break
down about year ago and as a re-
suit was unable to take his place in
congress as representative of his dis
trict. No successor was named as it |
had been expected he would recover.
According to the guardian who was
appointed to take charge OF his al
fairs, it is believed that Sullivan was
on the verge of bankruptcy This
condition can hardly be realized as he |
was regarded as wealthy, thoagh he
had given freely to the poor from his /
fortune,
Gave Up Freely.
A Thanksgiving dinner to all who
applied on that day has been an an
nual custom OF the big hearted east
slider. Frequently he gave summer
excursions to thousands when a big
picnic was held, Sullivan bearing All
the expense.
Unidentified for Twelve Days.
Late this afternoon it was learned
that employees of the New Haven rail-
road had found the corpse where IL
had evidently been thrown by the tram
which struck him. For II days the body
lay In Fordham morgue unrecognlzed
Not until the body was sent to BEL
levue morgue for interrment in the .
Potter's field was it recognized by Z
Policeman Barney O'Connel.
