USED A HAMMER
North Side Man Assaults Ranch Fore
man.

Last Friday, at Overlook farms,
Hugh Golf assaulted William Becker,
the foreman, with hammer and in
flicted a wound which for the time
was feared would be fatal. Mr.. Deck
err was rendered unconscious and was
rushed to the hospital at Twin Falls
for treatment The News is glad to
be able to announce that his injury
was not so serious as at first believ-
3D. and on yesterday he was discharg-
ed from the hospital and has returned
home.
The affray seems to have been the
result of some friction between the
two men combined with hasty tempers,
end the immediate cause was trivial
one. Mr.. Golf, as soon as he realized
what had happened, with Mrs. Goff
did what they could to relieve the in
jured man pending his removal to the
hospital and expressing regret for his
act. In company with Deputy Sheriff
j. W. Johnson, he went to Shoshone
and put in an appearance before the
county court and was placed under an
appearance bond of $500 and allowed
to go pending the outcome of Mr.
Becker's injury. He has since visited
Mr.. Becker at the hospital and In
other ways acted a very manly part
sincerely regretting his act.
Mr.. Becker, according to informa-
tion furnished The News, is in a
measure to blame for the affair He
is of an overbearing disposition and
has a sarcastic tongue which he fire.
quently made use of as applying to
Mrs. Golf as well as her husband. II
was in resentment of this more than
anything else that Mr.. Golf finally
turned without warning and welded
the hammer, which he was at the time
using.-Jerome News.

BLEACHING BONES IN RIVER
Identified rs Those OF Hepburn Wo-
man Who Committed Suicide.

On the evening of November 18th,
last Thursday, A. S. Bell, of Miner,
found the bones and skull of human
being in a crevice in the lava rocks
about one mile above Miner dam. The
matter was at once reported and the
sheriff and coroner of Minidoka coun-
ty repaired to the scene of the find.
The skull was brought to this city and
identified as that of Mrs. Anna Ander-
son, wife of John Anderson, formerly
in business at Hepburn with Chas.
Holstein They We're identified also
by her sister, Mrs. Erickson, who re-
sides south of Rupert, and Mr.. Ander-
son, who now resides at Lund IN
Bannock county, was notified.
1t will be remembered that on June
2, four years ago Mrs. Anderson dis
appeared from her home in Hepburn
and it was reported that she had been
seen on the railroad bridge at that
place. No trace could be obtained of
her and various rumors were afloat.
Search was made in the Snake river
but nothing resulted from it.
DR.. f. A. Rowley of this city had put
gold filling in for Mrs. Anderson, to
which was attached false tooth.
w ltll IuC ohull VIZ oIIcN IL W MIN Inv
other day, he positively identified his
work Beside the bones were the
rusted steels of a corset, and the size
of the skull, etc, indie ated them to be
that of woman of about Mrs. Ander-
osns build There were other gold
filings in the teeth and these together
with the fact that some teeth are
missing in one side of the jaw, were
the means by which Mrs. Erickson
positively identified the skull.
At present there appears to be some
disagreement between the officers of
this county and those of Cassia, as to
which has jurisdiction in the matter,
as the bones were found in the latter
county. Just what will be done in the
matter remains to be seen but it is
certain that this old mystery has fin
ally been cleared up,-Rupert Pioneer

U. S. BUILD BIG GUNS
Guns More Powerful Than German
Pets Under Constructions.

WASHINGTON The largest and
most powerful naval gun ever de-
signed has just been completed for the
United States navy. 1t is 16-inch
rifle, which, it became known Friday
night, has been constructed without
publicity at the Washington navy yard
and is now being put through tests at
the Indian Head proving grounds on
the Potomac below this city.
If the new weapon proves to be the
success its trials promise, in all prob
ability will be adopted as the type OF
gun for the main battery of the three
dreadnoughts authorized at the last
session of congress. These vessels
contracts for two of which already
have been let, will be larger by sew
eral thousand tons than any ship now
afloat, and the experts figure that
they can easily carry the heavier guns.
The largest weapons now used in
the American navy are the 14-inch
guns carried by the dreadnoughts OF
the Pennsylvania, Nevada and New
York class. The newest battleships
of the British navy carry 15-inch
rifles, eight of them in four turrets.
| The American ships have their IA
! inch guns mounted three in a turret
AS the new rifles weigh just about
20 per cent more than these guns, the
constructors are planning to mount
them in pairs in the same type ant
size of turret.
1t is claimed that the 16-inch guI
will have a range of Is miles, and a
least twice the penetrating power o
| the famous German HOWitZerS. Sal

PRESS CLUB HOLDS SESSION
Members Advocate Change in Elec-
ton Laws.

The Eastern Idaho Press Club held
forth at Pocatello last Monday. The
attendance was not very large, but
several matters were considered in
which the public is interested. Chief
among which was the printing requir-
ed by the present election laws. While
the printers like to get hold of all the
money they can, the same as the aver
age human in this day and age, they
feel that the present law requires too
much in some ways and not enough
present cost. Then, too, the law says
fac smile of the ballot shall be pub
lished in one or more papers in each
county. This entails a great expense
and the purpose sought can be equally
well served for about one-third of the
present cost. Then, too, the law says
that sixty ballots for each fifty voters
shall be printed for each party at the
primary election, when about a fourth
of that number would be ample.
The legislative committee OF the
Press club will be called together in
the near future to frame new law
| upon this subject. in which it will be
sought to eliminate a large amount OF
expense to the people in the election
| printing. This is taking good money
out of the printers pockets, for as
| the law now stands it is nice thing
| for the fellow who gets it; but, be thai
as it may, the printers are going to DE-
exactly as stated. There are some
other things which do not receive thu
| publicity under the present laws tina
they should and of which the publ,
| is entitled to know. These will b.
taken up with the idea~of requiring
certain officials to publish reports 0
their doings in such a manner that tn
public may know that facts, and get
line upon what is being done wit
some of the good money they are pay
ing for taxes.
The next meeting of the Press Gu
will be held the third Friday and Sat
urday in June, and will probably con
vene in Rupert-definite decision be
ing up to the Commercial club at it

plant could be located on their ranch.
They exonerated Burke so far ms
the counterfeiting charge is con
cerned, but stated that he had passed
about all Of the coins put into circl-
lation. The dollars are crude and
were easily detected and only about
20 of them put out here.
Find M0Onshine Still.
In making the search for the plant
the officers ran onto the moonshine
still, which was located ON another
part of the ranch. They found about
10 gallons of liquor, larger amount
in course of manufacture and great
quantity of grain being fermented.
The liquor had been disposed of To-
cally.
The counterfeiting plant and the
still were taken to Rigby, the county
seat to be held as evidence.
The elder Swinton lived in the Me-
nan neighborhood for number OF
years, returning recently from Ari-
IONA, where he has been engaged in
mining 1t is stated that most Of the
bad money was made there and
brought here. He is So years of age
and feeble old man. Burke came
here recently from Montana and
claims that he did not know the Swim
tons previously to his coming here
and knew nothing of the liquor STILL

RED HAIRED STAR
How Peg and Michael Settle Down at
the ChichesterS.

The heroine of Oliver Morosco's
comedy, Peg O. My Heart" is red
haired, and Irish to her finger tips.
She has just landed in London from
New York whence she came to live
with her relatives, the Chichesters,
a proud but impecunious London fam
lily. The family solicitor has just in
formed the family that deceased
uncle has left them one thousand
pounds year provided they take Peg,
who is the daughter of an impoverish-
ed brother; care for her and educate
her.
Peg is a diamond in the rough and
her ready answers to all questions are
not of the sort to preserve equanlm1ty
in an aristocratic household, like the
Chichesters. Moreover she is accomp-
anied by Michael, as disreputable all
Irish terrier as ever buried bone or
chased an alley cat, and all attempts
to take Michael from her, Peg turns a
deaf ear.
Her stately cousin Ethel has one of
those fluffy beribboned lap dogs that
are cherished by women of fashion,
and both Peg and Michael look at it
askance Michael is ready to ami
hilate the fluffy thing on the spot
while Peg remarks scornfully, well
there's one thing about Michael, no
one could ever mistake him for any
thing but dog, while that thing looks
like bunch of knitting"
After some discussion and consid-
cradle caustic comment by Peg, her
pet is RELOCATED to the rear OF
the house and Peg takes up her resi-
dence with the Chichesters.

The Governors Charge.

The Governors Charge.
.In addition to what is contained In
the above telegram | desire to state
that evidence accumulates, to prove
beyond question, that your conduct OF
the affairs of the game warden's Of
flee is not in behalf of the best in
terests OF the state. You have dem
onstrated that you are out of har-
mony with the work of the admins
tration. and your attitude thereto has
been such as to make 1t inadvisable
TO longer continue in the position you
now hold.
"You have not shown that care in
the expenditure of the fund commit
ted to your charge which the people
have a right to expect. This is particu-
larly shown by the fact that you have
authorized much unnecessary travel
on the part of certain Of your depu-
ties and their sojourn at various places
where they could have had no duties
in connection with the proper enforce
mont of the game laws of the state.
For the reasons indicated, and in
accordance with the specific authority
contained in section l of the fish and
game act of 1909, | have taken the
action indicated by the above tele-
gram. You will please lose no time,
whatever, in complying with the di-
rection to return to Boise and turn
over to your successor all public prop
erty, records and funds for which you
are now responsible.
Every respectfully.

LETTER TO
The GOVERNOR
Deposed Game Warden Goes
Into Fish Screen Trans
Actions Thoroughly.

Admitting that there are honest
differences between himself and the
governor on some questions of ad-
m~inistration, but denying fatty that
there is any basis for the charge that
there has beer wilful mismanage-
ment OF the funds %intrusted to him as
head of the game department of the
state OF Idaho, and the rumor that he
has proited personally by the install
lation of fish screens in the irrigating
districts of the state, o Ii. Barber,
recently deposed by order of the gov
ernor as state game warden, issued a
statement to the press Saturday after
his conference with hat official.
The statement is in the form of an
open letter and is self explanatory:
Honorable John NJ. Haines, Boise,
Idaho. Dear Sir: | am i'm receipt of
your favor of the Bird instant, notify
ing me of my removal from office and
the appointment of my successor:
AS soon as the details of the trans
fer can be arranged l shall be glad to
comply with your request. l wish to
assure you that | leave the office
without regret. Under the system inn
posed by law | feel that no man can
conduct the affairs of the office with
the degree of success expected of him
by the public, and that the satisfac-
ton a%ccruing from the holding of the
