Returns From
Storage Fruit
Results Show That Apples Stored
With Payette Cold Storage Com
pany Brought Large Sum of Mon.
ey Into Circulation and Melted
Grower Nice Profit.

The last forty-one cars of fruit
shipped from the Payette Cold Stor-
age plant which had been held all
winter and were all in excellent con-
dition brought into this community
$37 1000 net to the grower over and
above freight, icing charges and COM
mission.
Of these forty-one cars seventeen
of them brought to the individual
grower a net profit over and above
all expenses the sum of SIT 900.
This is surely snug sum to have
coming in at this time and the Pay
cite Cold Storage plant the past sea-
son has fully demonstrated the wis
dom of holding good varieties un-
til the early spring market. The
prices received should certainly be
eye openers to the grower as to the
advantage of storing the best CONNER
cial varieties especially when fall
and winter market seems crowded
and the price low.

Robbers Loot
Business Houses
Stanton Brothers Grocery and Blay-
dcn's Pressery Robbed of Small
Amount of Money and Clothing
Mo Clues Found.

Sometime during the night Of July
third robbers entered the grocery
store of Stanton Brothers by tearing
off the boards On the back door and
secured for their trouble about three
dollars in pennies which had been
left in the money drawer.
The same night Blayden's pressery
in the Coughanour Block was entered
and six or seven suits of clothes and
two overcoats were taken. The
thieves secured admission to the pres
sary by picking the lock on the back
door.
Jay Blaydcn, proprietor of the pres
sary discovered his loss the morning
OF the Fourth when he came up to
his place of business. Stanton Broth
ers did not know their store had been
broken into until about four o'clock
in the afternoon of the Fourth. AS
most of the stores in Payette closed
on that date none of them came up
until late afternoon. There are no
clues as to who the robbers are.

Vale Wins
League Pennant
Series of Games July Fourth, Fifth
and Sixth Gives Pennant to Oregon
Town-Payette Third in Race.

The series of games to be played
in the Idaho Oregon League have
been finished with the result that
! Vale wins the pennant. Weiser is
3 second and Payette third in the race.
Before the games played July
Fourth, Fifth and Sixth Payettc, Vale
and Weiser were all tied for first
place.
At Vale on July Fourth Payette
lost to Vale by score Of SIX to three
and Ontario won over Weiser by a
score of five to one.
Sunday at Weiser, Weiser won from
Ontario six to two and Vale took Pay
cite down the line five to eight.
The most exciting game of the Sc
ries was the one at Ontario on Satur-
day between Payette and Weiser.
Twelve innings were necessary to
decide this game which finally went
to Weiser on a score of four to
five. The feature of this game was
the excellent pitching done by Rod
ney Shake who held the Weiser War
riors down to four hits and had
he received the support would have
won the game easily. He pitched the
full twelve innings and was going |
strong when the game ended.
There is some talk of getting up
another series for the month of July
md forepart of August but the move
nent has not yet materialized.

Coyotes Suffer
From Rabies
Adams County Suffers from Epidem-
ic-VaIuable Dogs Bitten and Own
ers Forced to Kill Them-Disease
May Spread-campers Warned of
Danger.

! DR.. R. B. Hurd Deputy State Veter-
marian returned Saturday from a trip
to Council where he had been called
to investigate case of rabies in a
dog. He was forced to kill valua-
BILE animal, a large Russian Stag
hound, which in his estimation was
undoubtedly suffering from rabies.
The dog belonged to Frank Hahn
county commissioner of Adams coun-
ty and on May 2Sth gave battle to
and killed a large coyote being Sc
verely bitten in several places by the
coyote during the fight. Thirty days
after the fight he began acting very
strangely, occasionally swapping and
snarling at people and objects. He
was chained up by his owner and was
placed where he could harm no one
and DR.. Hurd was called to pass up
on his case which developed was rab-
les and he was killed.
That the dog fought the coyote and
killed him IS certain as at the time
Frank Hahn, Jr., was with the dog
and witnessed the fight and at the
time thought it peculiar that the coy
ote showed fight as at this time of
tho year with plenty to eat they are
generally wary and take to heel at
tho approach of dog or man. This
cne however stood his ground from
the first swapping and snarling in
vicious manner, Several other dogs
in this section known to have en-
gagged in fights with coyotes have al !
so developed symptoms of this dis
ease and been killed. Especially
near Fruitvale in Adams county has
there been quite an epidemic.
Wherever there are dogs running
at large in the hills and liable to en-
gage in fights with coyotes the dis
case is liable to spread and may as
sumo such proportions as to endan-
ger human life as a dog or coyote
from rabies is a dangerous
Campers contemplating
going to the hills are warned to take
extra precautions regarding the safe
ty of children and women.

Road Reaches
Smith S Ferry
Extention of Idaho Northern Compile
ted to Smiths Ferry-Heart of the
Big Timber-sportsman Paradise.

The reports from the new exten
tion of the Idaho Northern are to
the effect that the track laying crew
reached Smiths Ferry on Monday, Ju
ly 7th. This brings the present ter.
minus of the line right in the heart
of the big timber to reach which
point it follows for fifty miles the
Payette river through the famous can
yon which rivals in scenic grandeur
the famous Royal Gorge of Colorado.
At Smiths Ferry one indeed finds an
ideal place for recreation and camp
ing. Nowhere in the state is there
better trout fishing than on the Pay
cite river at this point.
Those who have been over the road
claim it is one of the best construct
ed extentions that the Short Line has
built for some time. j. NJ. Bennett,
nected with the construction depart
nent of the Oregon Short Line and
Union Pacific recently made a trip
some distance up the new line and
vas much surprised at the work be-
ng done on it. The natural :orma- |
ion gives an excellent road bed and !
when the best of material is used as
n the present case, an excellent F..
'iece of road is the result.
Payette people who have long been
sed to travelling by way of Mead
ws and stage to get to the Payette
axes and other well known resorts
n that section will be glad to learn
hat very soon a more direct route
yill be afforded them to not only the
axes but hundreds of other del ghtful
pots along the beautiful Payette
here not only the most beautiful
cenery is to be found but fish and
ame abound in abundance.

Breshears Makes
Great Showing
Turns Into County Treasury More
Than $500 Over Expenses fer Quar-
ter.

According to the report of Sheriff
Breshears, the total amount Of mon
ey collected through his office for the
quarter ending June 80 was S1547 .01.
The expenses of his office for the
same period were s971O0, leaving a
balance of s567O1 to be turned into
the county treasury-the largest quar-
terly remittance made by the sheriff's
office in the history of Canyon Coun-
ty.
The amount turned over to the
treasurer for the preceding quarter
was $4,000 and prior to that the
quarterly reports usually showed the
expenses of the sheriffs office to be
greater than the receipts. The natu-
raj growth of the business of the Of !
flee, together with a more economical
handling of the same, are responsible .
for the change.
Where Money Came From.
From April 1 to June 30, s11O7O
was received in fines and s1436.31
n fees. On the execution docket the
,ees collected amounted to s6S5.11;

AS we are changing our policy of
handling supplies, we take this meth

From the same authority 1t is learn

penetrating eyes. which are widely
separated and overhung by a heavy
brow" His hair was dark brown. ac-
cording to Mercer, although others
have described it as reddish. There
were also the mute reminders ON his
face of an early attack of smallpox.
In 1880 Senator Maclay describes
Washington as having a frame which
would seem to want filling up; his
motions rather slow than lively; his
complexion pale-nay. almost cadav-
