BOISE Will HAVE
AN ANGLERS CLUB
Meeting to Organize Will
Be Held on Next Friday
Night.

Friday night at Judge Ofdenss office,
next door to the Y. M. G. A, meeting
of the Waltonites of Boise and Ada
county Is to be held, at which an ang-
lers' club will be organized. The
sportsmen are eager to form a good
club of several hundred members, and
all those who are interested in good
fishing are invited to take part in the
meeting. Preliminary meetings have
already been held, and expectation is
running high among Boise rodmen.
Some of the leaders in the movement
are D. A. Utter, J. w. Veatch, Thomas
L. Martin. J. r. Black, B. F. Oiden, G..
o. Buhn DIR. #, A. Weaver, f. B. Chap
man, E. c. Rummell, o. B. Matthews. j.
P Hackney and Nathan Alexander
State Fish and Game Warden o. II.
Barber Is also enthusiastic, and has
| signifed his intention of attending the
meeting and his willingness to assist
the club In its efforts to better the fish,
| ing in these parts.
Some of th@plans to be projected at
the Friday night meeting, and after the
| club is in running condition, are the
| building of club house and providing
! of boats at Indian creek reservoir,
planting of trees and otherwise i'm
proving the grounds there. and care of
the stock of fish with an eye to pre-
serving good species. The reservoir is
already well supplied with bass and
perch, but other less desirable fish have
also made their home there, and these
are to be discouraged If there is any
thing that makes a fisherman warm
under the collar, besides a long and
fruitless day of fly-easting, 1t is finding
tribe of German carp thriving in his
favorite waters A study of conditions
| is to be made. and the club hopes to
eradicate the carp, foster the perch and
bass, and see what other species can
be developed. Steelhead trout will be
one kind whose possibilities will be
weighed.
The reservoir on Blacks creek is an
other promising location, and the club
will undoubtedly try to stock this with
bass. Once the organization is going
1t can secure fry in abundance from
the state fish and game department &c
/ plant as it likes. And with two such
good fishing grounds as these on In
dian creek and Blacks creek, a move
4 ment will be in order to improve the
road between them. and Boise. There
is "a road running in a loop from Boise
to the Indian creek reservoir around by
the Blacks creek reservoir. and this
can be made into good motor road
without great expense.

COUlON LOSES HIS
TITLE TO YOUNG
KID WILLIAMS
Baltimore Fighter Is Now
the Bantamweight Cham
pion of World Knockout
in Third Round.

Ringside, Vernon, Cal, June 10
Johnny Coulon, bantamweight cham
pion of the world, lost his title last
Knight to kid" Williams of Baltimore,
tho knocked him out with stiff right
fianded punch to the chin in the third
round of their scheduled 20-round con-
test.
The fighting was all Williams own
from the start. Coulon seemed unable
to solve the problem of landing any
where in the short interval of the first
sswo rounds and was saved at the close
of the second round only by the timely
ringing of the gong
The result proved the wisdom of the
hettors who favored Williams from the
start, holding that Coulon's illness that
kept him out of the ring year had
robbed him of championship form. The
odds on Williams went as high as
to L. At the ringside, while no betting
was in evidence, 1t was plain that there
was plenty OF money placed just before
the contest at 10 to s.
With the opening of the first round
the crowd repeatedly called for VIII
1iams to get in and do it," evidently
assured that he was capable of making
good his claim to the championship
title.
Coulon got in but one really effective
blow during the short contest Toward
the close of the first round he managed
to reach Williams face
Although the champion was obviously
outclassed from the beginning his blow
TO Williams countenance elected up
roarious cheers from the crowd.
Fighting Was Fast.
The fighting was fast and exciting
from the start Williams held the CEN
ter Of the ring and kept Coulon spar
ring near the ropes. When the former
champion received the blow which de-
prived him of his title he fell nearly
under the ropes, within a few feet of
Williams corner of the ring.
AS Referee Eyton raised the new
champions arms, signifying him to be
the winner. the crowd rose and cheered
Justify Williams ran around the ref
cree and attempted to assist the ex-
champion to his feet. Coulon appeared
shaky and scarcely able to walk. AS
soon as he had gone a step or two he
went to his corner unassisted, how
ever, and refused Williams proffered
aid
Before Coulon had reached his cor

FIND RICHES IN OLD MINE
New Owners Strike Pockets of Gold,
and It Is Said That More
Are in Sight.

The old Sugarman mine, at the head
tain, is harvesting a big crop of gold
for it's owners, Charles Smith and Rob-
ert Watson. These expert pocket min
ers, some nine hundred feet under
ground. in the face Of tunnel, St.
lead about month ago which eoA-
vinced them that they were in close
proximity to a pocket.
For two weeks they followed the
lead, the small stream. of gold grad
ually growing larger, until few days
shotted rock all over the drift. Pre-
sumably the heart of the pocket had
been reached and the ounces of the
precious metal gathered up soon grew
into pounds and from hundreds to
thousands of dollars in value, and still
the ribbons of gold interlace the ore
in place, and the end is not yet.
The Sugarman mine is among the
more important of the Bald mountain
section. 1t was located early in the
fifties, and worked to shallow depth
by Peruvians with great success. Like
many of the claims of that day, which
subsequently became famous produc-
ers, the Sugarman was abandoned,
and remained unclaimed and un-
worked for several years. In 1868 it
was relocated, and for more than for
ty years held in ownership by the late
John Neale and for many years op-
Grated by him. For quite a period
during the latter years of his life,
Neale leased the property to Smith
and Watson, receiving a royalty of
20 per cent of the gross production.
A few years since Smith and Watson
purchased the mine.-Sonora (Cal.)

pav Of the Gentleman Farmer.

AS a result partly of the widening
influence of our agricultural colleges
and partly of numerous cooperating
agencies, new set of ideals is being
created with regard to country life,
asserts a writer in the Atlantic. The
nation as a whole, in fact, is making
a re-estimation of rural life. With the
coming of dear lands, city people have
awakened to a new interest in coun-
try affairs and a new respect for
country inhabitants. There is before
US in the United States the opportun-
ity to develop perhaps the finest type
of rural civilization that the world has
ever known. The ownership of land in
past ages has always been most honor
able, but the working of 1t has been
regarded generally as degrading. The
actual farmers, equipped with their
poor, pitiable instruments, and con-
demned to unceasing and dishearten-
ing toll, have been slaves, serfs,
heather, pagans, Doors, peasants. But
today the use of machinery and new
facilities for communication make it
possible for the same individual to be
tiller of the soil and a gentleman.

CLOCK IN UNUSUAL PLACE
Set in the Floor of Hotel at Worces-
ter, Mass, II Has Excited
Much Comment.

In the center of the lobby of a hotel
newly constructed at Worcester.
Mass. large electrically Illuminated
clock is embedded in the floor. The
clock is covered with a plate-glass
face one inch thick and two feet in
G'-meter. The liberals and minute
L.ari1s are etched in by sand-blasting
on the under side of the glass, which
is held in place by strong bronze
rings. The face of the clock is light
ed by electric lamps, and in the
evenings its luminous countenance
forms the most striking feature In the
hotel.
The clock is a self-winder. It's
hands are driven by spring-operated
and Observation-Disclosures train set
in a recess in the floor. This recess
Is formed by metal box 10lh inches
deep. which is painted white inside.
Eight inches below each numeral on
the glass face Is a ten-watt tungsten
lamp placed horizontally. The white
finish of the containing box reflects
the light from the 12 lamps evenly
through the dial
A small motor operated by three dry
cells at intervals of five minutes
winds the spring of the clock. These
cells, it is estimated. win suffice for
the working of the clock for one year
before new battery must be in
stalled. Thus. costs of maintenance
are little. while the satisfaction which
the timepiece brings to the idle lobby
lounger who may watch the minutes
flying at his feet is large.

predoe as a Life Saver

When Anson Rabuck, fourteen years
old, fell into the Susquehanna river
at Klines Grove, Pa, the other day
he did not reappear and men and
boys grappled and dived for the body.
Three hundred feet down stream
coal dredge was working, and in few
minutes the digging machine threw
the little fellow up on the screen, APP
parently dead.
His frantic mother, who lives close
to the stream, urged that they try to
save the boy. and half dozen men
took turns under her directions, at
using first aid to the injured meth
ods." After half hours work the
boy showed signs of life and by eve
ming was able to eat his supper.
Doctors said that it was one of the
rarest cases of resuscitation that they
ever heard of.

ADVICE FOR THE BRIDEGROOM
Writer Who Evidently Thinks He
Knows Has Something to Say
About Married Life.

You will think she is an angel. OF
course.
At her best, she is; that is. as near
like one as mortals can be.
But don't let that scare you; for,
after all, she's human. She will need
three meals a day; a surprising lot OF
clothes, much affection, more forbear-
ance and your constant steadying.
She won't always look or talk like
an angel Sometimes she will seem
fright, and act the part.
Then, Young Fellow, IS when, if you
are wise, you will get right down out
of the clouds. cease to worship. and
with smile on your face. take her
into your strons arms, put kiss
where nature intended it, and lay
down the law.
We say this. not in the least approx
ing of masculine tyranny. There will
undoubtedly come times, very many OF
'em, when she. to balance the account.
will also lay down the law. You'll
obey without a word. If you're wise.
The point is, do it smilingly, and
with kiss.
1t all depends on how you lay the
law down whether you are tyrant or
not. If you do as we say, Wen guaran-
tee that, nine times in ten, she'll like
you the better for it; and if, the
tenth time, she gets or stays huffy.
well, that ought to be a good enough
score for one who isn't an angel In
fact.
And now we want to state bald
truth. In spite of eugenics. heredity
and all that sort of thing. your wife is
likely to be pretty much what you
make her. You can make her slave,
a doll or comrade.
Better try the latter-Pittsburg

Hyoiene In Schools.

The work of supervising the health
of school children began about four
teen years ago. at which time only
eight American cities had any plan
for protecting the health of school
children. Ten years later it was re-
ported that over 400 American cities
had organized health work In schools.
Today probably 100 cities have corps
of school nurses. AS far back as two
years ago it was reported that As
American cities were employing stats
of school dentists, and it Is probable
that many other cities have undertake

The tentative move to abrldge Sen
ator Ransdelrs term of Office by two
years met with the determined opposl-
ton it deserved. 1t was unfair, and
with this fact plainly stated, enough is
said to condemn it. Senator Ransceil
made an arduous and expensive cam
paign before the people of this state
for the office he now holds, The peo-
pie said in no uncertain tones that
they desired Joseph Ransdell to serve
them for term Of six years. There
is no real right to shorten that term
any more than it would be to deprive
him of his seat. Francis T. Nichols,
through political exigency, pressing
indeed at the time, was legislated out
of the governorship. No such neces-
sity exists to-day to do similar despite
to Senator Ransdell.
