AROUND THE COURT HOUSE

Sheriff Simmons returned Thurs
lday morning from Butte with man
Iwho was found there in possession of
a motorcycle that had been stolen
from Wapello. The man took the
machine to a garage for re"airs ana
the number of the machine was all
scratched off. The officers found the
description tailed with the one miss
cling from Wapello and the mechanic
an found another number that had
not been defaced, and that was the
number missing from here.
A Mexican was arrested here this
week charged with stealing a pair Of
shoes from Biethan's store and two
pairs of trousers from Alexander.
Some troubles arising in the Pres
to country are likely to be settled
out of court.
Jacob Jacobson, of Shelley, ship
lper of hogs and other, produce, re-
tcently disappeared leaving much un-
settled business, and persons who had
cars of hogs shipped through him
Iand not yet settled for are worried
for fear he has taken advantage Of
them. 1t is thought that it would
take about $4,000 to square up his
accounts, but up to the time of his
disappearance he held the confidence
of all his business associates. There
is still slight hope that he is acting
Nm good faith.
Judge Cowen is to be at Blackfoot
today to hold court to consider a
case or two.

A NEW AGENCY HERE

R. E. Hansen and Ira Lee are
handling the Metz cars at Blackfoot
and Mr.. Lee is busy demonstrating
these days. People who have been
noticing cars have observed that sim
plicity is one of the marked features
of the season and that the lower price
is another-both very welcome mat
ters.
The Metz car has the friction drive,
and thereby comes in for a long
stride in simplifying and economic
ing. The protection of the fine work
ing parts from dust, the protection
of the oils and bearings from grit, are
matters that will be appreciated by
autoists.
The Metz car has the modern fea-
lures of starting and lighting and it's
strength, durability and low price
should win a place for it in this COM
munity.
Hansen and Lee are planning to
have one of their speedsters at the
celebration Monday for the purpose
of carrying off a purse. adv.

CHANGES AT BOYLE'S

All the bookkeepers connected
with the wholesale trade of the Boyle
Hardware company have been moved
up stairs to give them quiet place
to work and to make more room for
the others.
Marcus Mester has installed new
kind of fly screen at the windows
whereby Mr. Fly roams about until
he finds himself out of doors without
knowing how to get back. 1t is a
case of off again, gone again, and if
he goes around and slips in at the
open door the screen is ready to turl
the same trick with him again The
device can be applied to any screen.

Commissioners
In Trouble

The county commissioners are still
in trouble regarding the work being
done on the state highway. 1t will
be remembered that the old board
made a contract in 1914 for certain
grading across the county on the road
lparalleling the railroad, at cost OF
about $4,000. The work being done
was not satisfactory to the board and
is not yet, but the work went on.
The grading that has been done since
the ground became dry is said to be
a very decided damage, as it has
made the road so bad from Firth on
lup that autoists find it easier to go
around by the west side of the river.
The commissioners are talking of
Iputting on sprinkler wagons to try to
get the road bed into condition again.
The idea was put to the front for a
long time that anything the county
could get the state to do was a happy
advantage to the county but it has
been demonstrated that the state pays
none of these bills for county until
the county first pays it over to the
state. Then the state officials dis
burse it, and much of it is regarded
as a graft, or as useless expense. For
example, the work must be done
under the direction of the engineer
for the highway commission. During
the progress of the work in this part
of the state, an engineer and twf
helpers with an auto superlntended
the work neal Blackfoot and Rigby.
One day it was found necessary to
put in a culvert between Blackfoot
and Ft. Hall, and the engineer was
summoned The three men came
down and gave the lines and the level
for the culvert and returned to Rig
by, having cost in salaries and ex-
penses, perhaps $40, and the road
supervisor would have put in the cul-
vert at cost of few dollars for
time and materials.
In the state highway work, the
county puts up two dollars to the
states one dollar, and since it has,
become SO plain that the county pays.
the two dollars directly and the one
dollar indirectly, and that a large
part of it is absolutely wasted, the
commissioners feel very much annoy
ed about it, but the contract for the
grading, or skimming, of the 26
miles of road was so framed that they
do not, seem able to do anything but
look on and pay the bills. The other
fellows have all the discretion" and
all the income.

AIRsHIP FOR BLACKFooT

The fair association is making an
other effort to secure an airship this
year, and in view of their past ex-
perience will undertake to make
contract that will hold their man and
will have that backed up with bond.
, It will be remembered that the
man who came here to fly last year
made but one successful fight, and
could have made others If he had
been willing. The other man who
came by mistake and who wanted to
fly, was left out by mistake of his
company, and he has since lost his
life in fight at Los Angeles.

BACK FROM A TRIP

L. M. Capps,, manager for the
Blackfoot Farmers Milling company
is back from a business trip into
southern and western Idaho, and says
Blackfoot people have rather more
to be cheerful about than most of the
places he visited. If business con-
ditions are not good at Blackfoot,
there are plenty of places where the
depression is felt more keenly.

Death of Miss Strickland.

The people of Mount Holly were
greatly shocked yesterday morning to
learn of the death of Miss Mosetta
Crane Strickland. Miss Strickland
was well known and greatly beloved
by many of the citizens of Mount Hol-
ly who remember her as living with
her ~stepfather, Rev. John H. Boswell.
After the death of the latter she re-
moved to Ocean City at which place
she died. She had been sick for about
nine weeks with typhoid fever. Hopes
were entertained for her recovery,
but complications arose and death fol-
lowed on Saturday afternoon.
She was a christian woman, earnest
in her work and devoted to the cause
of temperance, with the ability to ex-
press, in a convincing manner, the
views she held on that subject. Miss
Strickland was a woman of more than
ordinary ability, and she was the
author of a book touching on temper
ance and had written several poems.
The announcement OF her death came
with painful ~suddenness upon her
friends who were not aware Of her
illness. The funeral services will be
said at the home of her sister, Mrs.
Elizabeth Candy, in Ocean City, to-
morrow afternoon, and interment will
be on. Thursday in the cemetery in
Lambertville, where the remains of
Rev. Mr.. Boswell lie.

Farm Demonstrator Wanted,

A meeting of farmers was held, or
Saturday, in the Office of the Burlington
County Farmers Exchange, to discuss
the action of the Board of Freeholders in
refusing to make an appropriation for a
farm demonstration for this county.
Edward E. Logan was chairman OF
the meeting. About twenty representa-
tive farmers were present.
The subject was fully discussed, and
the sense of the meeting was that the
demonstrator would be beneficial to the
farmers of this county.
Letters were read from the president
of the Monmouth Farmers Exchange.
Mercer County Potato Association and
Bergen County Board of Agriculture,
which spoke in high terms of the value
derived from the demonstrators in each
of those counties.
A committee of five, consisting of
George Lippincott, Marion; E. A.
MechIin, Moorestown; HI. H. Albertson,
Burlington; Herman Croshaw, Wrights-
town, and c. Craig Tallman, Columbus,
was appointed to circulate petitions to
present to the Board of Freeholders and
to have speakers attend the next meet
ing of the board to urge the appropria-
ton for a demonstration.
1t was decided to send communion
tions to banking institutions and or
CARNATIONS throughout the county,
asking their views upon the subject and
requesting cooperation in recommend
ing the demonstration appropriation to

Court.

THURSDAYS court business was not
very lively. There were a few cases in
the Orphans Court and when they had
! been attended to Prosecutor Atkinson
called two defendants to plead.
One was Rebecca Cross, who was
charged with adultery. She pleaded not

Wrightstown, told what he knew about
Lawrence. He had not known him
very long and had never heard any
thing against him except that he would
drink too much. Mr.. Taylor feared
there were o many inducements Of
fered to men to drink at the hotel in
question. Mr.. Taylor said the people
at the hotel did not seem to know how
much q man had aboard as long as he
had ten cents.

had heard he was disposed to be lenient.
