The criminal docket in the dist
triet court was cleaned up Wednes-
day, when the case of the state
vs. John Jorgensen was concluded.
This was the most interesting crIm
inal case of the term, and occupied
the time of the court for two days.
Jorgensen was charged with export
ing Mrs Alice Hill, the l7-year-old
wife of John Hill of st. Charles,
to the state of Utah for immoral
purposes. The defendant was rep
resented by John A. Bagley and
the state by Attorneys Jones and
Rich. Considerable. time Tuesday
was consumed in arguing several
points of law, which were advanced
by the defense. There was a great
deal of evidence heard, bearing up-
on the relations existing between
Jorgensen and Mrs. Hill, while he
was residing in this county. The
most damaging evidence against
the defendant was the letters he
wrote to her after going to Utah,
IN which he requested her to Join
him there and pass as his wife.
Toe case went TO the jury at the
close of court Wednesday afternoon,
and verdict of guilty, as charged,
was agreed upon after1a deliberatlon
Of about three hours.
In the case of the state vs. Georg'
Davis. charged with maintaining ;
common nuisance, the plea of guilty
which had previously been entered

RAINS DO GREAT
DAMAGE TO CROPS

Terrific rain storms have been
the order Of the day thruout South
ern Idaho during the past ten days.
In some sections the rain came in
the form of cloudbursts, which
have resulted in fearful damage to
the crops, but SO far no lives have
been lost and but very little prop
erty has been destrOyed. This
county has not escaped the down
pours. although the storms have
not been so severe here as they
were in the Boise and Payette val
leys.
Jacob ]. Hirschi, who was in
from his ranch on Sheep Creek last
Monday, informed us that on Tues
day and Wednesday of last weeh
the rains did considerable damage
in his vicinity. On Tuesday his so
acre field of upland hay was flood
ed TO 3 depth of q foot or NOR,
with mud and silt, completely ruin
ing the hay. He also had severa
head Of sheep drowned. f. 4
CLARK of that section also had
large qusntity Of hay ruined by th
water. From the Thomas For
country snd other sections of tn
county also came reports of damag
TO the crops by Nhe rains.
At Poeatello last Saturday evenin
II OF an inch of water fell With
athalf hour. The streets in th
lower sections of the city weI
quickly converted into raging tol
rents, but the storm was of sue
short duration that the drainag
was sufficient ta carry the water o
without dong any damage.
Judging from reports in the p
peFs, this county has experiences
less damage from the rains than al
other section Of the state, whI'

NORWICH TROLLEY CAR
 RAN DOWN CHILD.
1t Was a Narrow Escape for Three Year Old Girl Playing in the Street.

Passengers on the trolley car from Norwich due in New London at 6.15 Thursday evening were thrown into a paroxySm of fear and some of the women went into mysteries when the car partially passed over a 3-year- girl in Main St. near Bullard's corner, New London. The car was going at a good rate of sped, when the child, who had been playing at the edge of the side walk, suddenly darted into the middle of the track So quick and unexpected was her action that the motorman was almost taken off his guard.
 He applied the airbrakes with such force that the passengers were brought up standing. but the child had gone under the front end of the car before it could be brought to a standstil1. The mortified passengers, several of them totally unnerved by the shock, looked apprehensively from the side of the car. expecting to zee the mangled re- mains of the little one pulled from un- der the wheels.
 Their horror changed to intense re- lief when from underneath the car and almost under the front wheels the child crawled out, rubbed her eyes clear of dust, dodged the arms of those who attempted to stop her and ran off laughing.

FAIR PEOPLE MAY GET
 GOVERNOR BALDWIN
Ambitious Plans for the Old Home Day Observance-Baby Show En- tries.

The entries for the New London county fair baby show are coming in Three youngsters from one family, g Greeneville family, were brought tc the attention of the baby show com mittee yesterday.
 The age limit has not yet been fixed but it will be. the chairman said within 4S hours. He has had mai inquiries from several out-of-town mothers, aunts and uncles.
 The Lakewood park and Lake Com bounce baby shows this month are expected to be the real thing in baby showdom. There are prizes for the best pairs of twins, for the noisest and for the smallest baby and, finally, for the baby that can show the finest crop of red hair. The Norwich show of course, won't be half so ambitious, Ii is an experiment, but the experiment looks good so far
 For old home day an effort will be made to get Gov. Simeon F. Baldwin to the fair. He is to be at Brooklyn the guest of the Windham county fair people, later in the month. Other speakers proposed are District Attor- ney Charles $. Whitman of New York who was born in this county in 1868 and former Alderman Francis Peck ham Bent of New York, who is all the time saving a good word for the city where he was born
 On Old Home day the band will play When You and I Were Young, Mag gie, and Old Black Joe. A city office holder suggested both.
 Sever of the storekeepers on prom inent streets in the scity are going tc decorate their windows for fair week One of them has been at work for sew eral days, mapping out a design he be- lieveS will be unique and appropriate It is hoped the decoration spirit may prove contagious. The 1913 fair week according to the society's workers, is going to be the biggest thing, next to the 1901 Old Home week and the 250th anniversary celebration in 1909, that Norwich has ever haa.
 The Thernnon bottle automobile will be a feature of the automobile show IL will be dr7ven by an invisible op- orator.
