HER RECITAL DRAMATIC ONE

Paris.-Mme. Henriette Caillaux, the
wife of Joseph Caillaux, once premier
of France and former minister of H.
nance, occupied the prisoners enclos-
ure in the assize court at the palace
of Justice Monday and recited, in
dramatic manner, the circumstances
leading up to the shooting, March l6,
of CASTOR Calmette, editor of the FL
caro-. with whose murder she is ac-
cused.
Judge Louis Albanel acted as presi-
dent of the court.
Nine. Caillaux held the attention OF
the crowded courtroom for three hours.
She described vividly the protracted
agony she had endured because OF
calumnies against herself and her hus-
band.

make no mistake If they understand
how to proceed. Nature has provid-
ed them with every requisite to use
in this line and there is no place

section of the Bear River valley for
large dairy.
There are many other opportun-
tiles here and / speak now with spe.
cial reference to hog raising, truck
gardening, etc, none of these fea-
lures being carried on yet to any
great extent but that which has been
accomplished thus far has proven
very profitable to those engaged In
the work. The market at Salt Lake
and Ogden cannot be surpassed from
our standpoint and the demand at
those points will be greater than the
supply from this locality for many
years unless every inch of soil Is
utilized.
Fertile land! We have the best
that can be purchased right here in
this valley and one of the best water
systems in the entire West with a
sufficient supply of water to irrigate
all the land in the valley ana some
not in the valley. And when you
further consider that we have never
experienced dearth of water in this
region since the water systems have
been operating here you will under
stand that ones success in this val

River valley takes off it's hat to no
other section of the United States.
This is not particularly a good
country for raising cattle on account
of lack of range and it would have
to be done from the farm but cattle
feeding can be carried on here as
there are as good facilities to be
found here as anywhere | know of
in the world to finish the cattle.
There are approximately 5000 head
of cattle being fed at Garland alone
every year and in addition there are
not less than $4,000 head OF sheep
also fed at that point

Interviews with Some Prom
inent Men of this District

A representative of the Globe call
ed upon Mr.. Fred ]. Keisel, presi-
dent of the Fred ]. Keisel Company,
one of the largest wholesale jobbing
houses of the Middle West, to ascer-
tain from Mr.. Keisel his opinion of
the Bear River Valley.
Il have been familiar with the
Bear River Valley for more than 40
years and was one of the founders
and early inhabitants of Corinne, at
the base of your splendid valley
was his response to our inquiry
Continuing he said, The climatic
conditions are uneXcelled, also the
soil and variety of products and
there is a ready market right at
your door. The developments in the
Bear River Valley are especially in
teresting to me because of the great,
steady growth to be seen in every
section of the Valley. But the pro
gress and developments are yet in
infancy and there is every reason
to believe that the Bear River Val
ley will become the greatest agricul-
tural and fruit center.
Regarding the increase in bust
ness" said Mr.. Keisel, during the
past few years it gives me great
pleasure to state that we estimate
the increase to be about % per cent
annually and | am convinced that it
will increase at that ratio as your

else and alfalfa, hay and grain are
produced exceptionally well and in
large quantities. Pulp is procured
reasonably from the local sugar
plant and when used in connection
with the other food stuffs already
mentioned make admirable feed for
producing a very high-grade beef, be
ing second only to corn fed stock
The finished beef from this point
brings the highest prices and com
mands one-half cents per pound
more than hay fed beef.
There is a big field here for

When 1t is remembered that The
Fred j. Keisel Company has been
for many years feeling the pulse OF
commercialism in the Bear River
valley the statements of Mr.. Keisel
should be taken as authoritative.

 COMING FINE
Mrs. l.. NJ. Schenck Drives Mare the Mile With Dr. Clark in 2::1S11Aa-News of the Gee-Gees from Ari- zona State Fair Track

Loe Blossom, with Owner Mrs. L. NJ. Schenck driving, got out with Dr. Clark yesterday morning at the fair grounds, took a score on the half mile track, and then stayed with the big chestnut for two rounds, un- consciously and unintentionally doing the mile in 2:1SE. Considering the heavy condition of the track, this time is certainly remarkable.
 It started as a practice in scoring. Loe Blossom is slow on the get away, while pr. Clark is notably fast. For several mornings. the two have been practicing scoring together in order that the mare might be speed ed up.
 In the race around the half miller, each of the three heats was faster than that preceding it, and as they went under the wire the last time, a stealthy clocker caught them at 2:1S5.
 Pretty fair time, don't you think, when under the new rules both are eligible only to the 2:2O class? And on the half mile track, and at this early date, eh?
 New scoring systems give horses records only for races they win. If horse trots the mile in 2:10, win ming heat, and then loses the rest of the heats, the mark does not count against him. But if he wins one heat in 200 and two others in forty five minutes, the mark will still

stand. The new way will undoubt- edlv cause great deal of confusion at first, and there may be not a little monkey business among the owners and drivers. But 1t is be- lieved it will work out. It cannot conflict with the newly accepted 3- heat rule for prizes, suggested by the Arizona state fair racng people and adopted by both tn Natonal and American associations under the name of the Phoenix plan
 There are not as many horses at
 the state fair grounds now as there were last winter A number have shipped to the initial meet of the circuit on which they expect to race.
 But every Tuesday and Friday IS work -cut day at the fair grounds and the drivers put their horses through all the scoring and jockeying of a regular race.
 Clark expects to campaign thls summer through Illinois. Iowa, Mis- souri. and Kansas and then back to
 Phoenix Loe Blossom will probably be sent ever the California circuit.

Names Committees for the Phoenix Prescott and Riv- erside Sand Races-Hacks Away at Bylaws on Sec ond Reading

In the quieteSt. most businessliIie session the Phoenix Motorcycle club has had since it's bylaws fight came on, the triangular bill of constitution, Phoenix Prescott race and Saturday Sand Stuff came up for consideration.
 Here's the way they did:
 They named Tommy Inler, Ellie Wilson. Frank Sellner and Ben Rud- derow as the handsome and hard working committee to handle the Riv- erside Park Sand pull contest.
 They instructed Senor Rudderow to tell Prescott that the Phoenix club was onto" that race business and would cooperate until the bovines wandered in the general direction Of the paternal roof.
 But the bylaws They worked them over once more for the leventh time, and got things almost nearly ready for the third reading and final passage next Tuesday It will be just in time, too, for the semi-annual election of officers. which occurs June ,, will de- pend on some of the new provisions of the fundamental law.
 During today Tommy lmler and his good men will frame up the rest of the program for Saturday. During today also. Ben Rudderow will add to his usefulness by letting all the clubs in the state know that the Phoenix aggregation is back of the Capital tC Prescott race on July the Fourth, and ask for entries. In a letter from Bliss Travis of he Yavapai Motorcycle clubs committee, it was stated that two or more Prescott riders woulC come on down and enter the race though they would favor the looE race which follows the road event.

STRUGGLE TOO MUCH TO BEAR

Coroner Arch Foster was called
Friday afternoon at about 4:3O
o'clock to Blairsburg to hold an in
quest over the sad suicide of Mrs.
John Wittmer, a woman of about As
years Of age, and mother of nine or
ten children, who hung herself
that afternoon about 3:45
o'clock, in her home in Blairsburg.
The case is one Of the most pa
thetic which has come to light in
Hamilton county for years. A little
over week ago the unfortunate
woman was brought before the COM
missioners of insanity in this city on
the charge of being mentally unbal-
anced, and at this time it was found
that she was suffering more with
complete nervous breakdown than
anything else. The family was very
poor, the husband laboring man
working by the day at any outdoor
work and the family of nine or ten
children ranged in ages from two to
twenty years. Two of the elder
dau lighters were living in Fort Dodge
and were giving their mother great
concern; the third was separated
from her husband and had come

HUNTERS SHOOT
COWS AND CALF
Cows Seriously Injured and the Calf
is Dead-Culprits not
Apprehended.

While Mr.. and Mrs. o. E. Sill,
who reside about a mile north of the
city, were at church Sunday
morning, some hunters tresspassed
on their place and shot three cows
and a calf. Two of the cows were
seriously injured and the calf died.
A neighbor saw four or five boys on
the premises and it is supposed they
did the shooting. This is a very ser
ious offense and it is hoped Mr.. Sill
will be able to ferret out the cul-
prits and punish them. 1t is little
wonder that farmers generally are
becoming opposed to hunting upon
their premises. Such carelesssness
is inexcusable and if the offense was
committed purposely it is devilish.
