"TOLLS" AND TRAVELS OF THE
LIBERTY BELL IN 1862 YEARS

The bell was tested with elaborate
ceremonies and raised in the State
House steeple June 1, 1853, where il
remained until 1881, when the
steeple was torn down, the bell being
removed to the State House tower
where it hung until 1846. Since
that time it has remained in the State
House, better known throughout the
country as Independence Hall, to the
present time
The bell has made seven trips in
all, the journey to the Panama-Pa-
cific International exposition making

AT THE CHICAGO AUTO RACES

]. H. Early witnessed the auto
races in Chicago last month when
they smashed the worlds record on
the new speedway. He says that
when Chicago decided to build a
speedway they bought half section
of land and built it in 40 days. It
has the track with the raised sides,
hospitals with physicians and nurses,
stalls for repairing machines, and
capacity for eighty thousand specta-
tors. Tickets to the grand stand sold
at from $3.50 to $40 apiece. Each
car has it's corps of Attendants in wait
ing at the stall to make any needed
repairs during the race One of the
machines in the 500 mile race wore
a tire to shreds and had to stop for
new one. 1t scooted into the stall
was oiled. new wheel put on, Is
gallons of gasoline was poured into
it, and was starting in 18 seconds
from the time of it's arrival. In going
the first $50 feet 1t acquired speed
of so miles an hour, and bounded
right up to the hundred-mile gait.
The highest speed made was 1O7
miles an hour, and the average speed
of the winner was over 81 miles for
500 miles.

FISHING PARTY MADE HAPPY

A party of dry landers from west
of Moreland went out in the noun
tains two weeks ago and had a de-
lightful time. The party was COM
posed of Glenn Chute and sister,
Hattie, Miss Marcelle Spraker, Elmer
Teddes and Carl Ross.
They went up Brush creek and
back via Lincoln creek, sampling all
the fine springs and cool shady hooks
as far up as Morgan's corral, and
trying the flavor of the trout in every
stream. The days we're hot, the
nights chilly and everybody lost their
own appetite and found the appetite
of pig. The boarding house was
satisfactory all the way, the cook
was always good cook no matter
which one 1t was, and they even con-
sidered not coming home at all, but
just living close to nature as long
as nature remained the same. How
ever, the butter and bacon PLAYED
out and--some of them thought they
ought to come home.

ASYLUM BOARD MET

The asylum board met Monday
with Chairman Fisher, of Bancroft
Secretary Dillingham;, of Mackay;
and Mr.. Reece, of Blackfoot, pres
ent besides DR.. Poynter, the medical
superintendent.
They took trip over the big farm
and found it in good condition, the
crops full of promise and the condi-
tion generally such that they COM
mended the men in charge of farm
and garden as we'll as the manage
ment generally. DR.. Poynter had
made number of changes of posi-,
tions, eliminating some or combining
the work of different positions SC
that it could be handled with fewer
employees and quite as effectively
as before, and at saving of about
$400 per quarter in salaries.
About two miles of new fence had
been constructed out of materials
found in the dump piles about the
institution and superfluous fences on
the place. By this means a large
amount of grazing lands were en-.
closed for the cattle.
A number of headgates had been
rebuilt and some of the bitches
placed on higher ground
Goods were purchased of the low
est bidders on Monday to the amount
of $4,495.5O.
1t was shown by the superintend-
ent's report that many old and infirm
persons, who should be kept in
county poor houses are sent to the
asylum for care, thus placing the
burden on the state instead of being
born by the respective counties, and
at the same time doing an injustice
to the infirm persons. Some of the
inmates are not citizens of the United
States and some are citizens of other
states and have no just claims upon
Idaho for their keeping.
Paroles were issued to Charles
Chapman, w. H. Pemble, r. P. Rodel,
William H. Bumgartner, Mrs. Foe,
Mrs. Nixon, Arthur T. McGinnis,
Henry Powers and Jacob A. Smith.

grounds where they have the best
there is, and reported upon them
He said also that the popular game
of polo as played with automobiles
instead of horses is very facinating
game in the prairie states, and puts
oldtime amusements into the back
ground. When somebody asked as
to the expense of days autopolo,
Mr.. Kennedy told them, and they
dropped their feathers SO to speak
and said, Lets not have all the new
things at once. Auto races and
aerial flights will be about our size
this year"
The directors decided to make a
little change in the manner OF max
ing awards in the ladies depart
ments, for the reason that some
pieces of needle work are on exhibit
every year and always take the
prizes. After that has happened
twice the piece is barred from awards
but it is not barred from exhlb1tlon.
There was some talk of making the
same rule apply to animals, but 1t
was not done for the reason that
animals require constant care to keep
them in condition for exhibit, and
the needlework does not. Once IN
condition, and once or twice recog-
nized is enough, and it should give
others chance.
Offers of the services of outside
were rejected on the
ground that local talent and the
bands in the towns where the people
come from to attend our fair, are
entitled to the employment.
Aberdeen has decided to have
fair but the dates are not yet fixed.

CHAUTAUQUA FOR .BLACKFOOT

On Thursday evening of last week
a number of Blackfoot men as
sembled at the directors room of
The First National bank to discuss
the matter of securing a chautauqua
for Blackfoot in 1916. Byrd Trego
submitted some correspondence and
contracts with the Ellison White ags-
tenn, and arrangements were made
for further Investigation of the mat
ter James Duckworth was made
chairman of the meeting and Byrd
Trego secretary.
On Wednesday evening another
|another meeting was held at the City
hall. There were present 16 or 18
business and professional men and
pastors, and Mr.. Keast, representing
the Ellison-White system. The whole
matter was gone over carefully and
those present were unanimous in ia
vor of chautauqua, but felt that it
would be best to get the fullest pos
sible measure Of public interest in
the matter before undertaking the
responsibility of contracting. A
guarantee of $3.50 has to be made
at the outset, and they asked for ten
days time in which to canvass the
situation and see if the people of
the community are in accord with
the movement sufficiently to back up
the guarantors If it is undertaken.
Mr.. Keast stated that it costs his
company $2SOO7to put on the enter
tainments in town, and the $175O
guarantee lacks $110O of being
enough to break even they take the
risk of selling enough admissions in
addition to the season tickets repre-
sented in the $3.50 to cover the rest
OF the expense and give them profit.
1t was decided that 1t would be
practical for Blackfoot to undertake
If all the people of the community
and some of the nearby towns within
the county take an interest in it;
If the various churches and other or
ganizations approve of the matter
end show their approval by undertake
ing to carry part of the responsible
ity, contracting to sell season tickets.
Mr.. Keast will return about the
twenty-sixth of July to receive the
answer of the community, and now
is the time for the people to show
their interest or lack of it.

DISCOVERY MADE AT
THE COURT HOUSE

Jailer Charlie Thompson was rum
maging around in the room under
the east steps of the court house re-
Gently, and found some very fine fire
extinguishers that had never been
unpacked. They are brass containers
of the three-gallon capacity with hose
attached, and are ready for use at
the touch. They have been hung on
the wall and when taken down and
turned over the chemicals mix and
begin to discharge a fluid that bars
the oxygen from a fire and smoth ers
1t. The extinguishers cost about $40
to SIS each, and bad evidently been
stored there by the Jones administra-
tion and forgotten.

LIBERTY BELL
AT POCATELLO

On Sunday large number of peo-
|ple from Blackfoot and surrounding
country went to Pocatello to see the
Liberty Bell and were we'll rewarded
for their trip. Some went by rail
and others in their cars. 1t is esti-
mated that hundred cars came out
in this direction after the crowd dis
persed.
The train bearing the bell was to
have arrived at 9 o'clock in the even
ing, but it was after 10. 1t was
switched up and down the yards un-
til all had seen it, and while it rested
by the freight depot the crowds filed
by on both sides of the car. The
illuminations were brilliant and it
was plainly visible at quite a dis
tance. The viaduct was crowded with
people who viewed it as it passed
under, and this afforded good view.
1t was happy throng and all seemed
delighted and satisfied.
Some idea of the great number of
people who gathered for the event
may be had from the statement that
at some time before the arrival of
the train the MALTA formed in the
street at the Bannock hotel, followed
by the band and marched across the
viaduct to the place where the bell
was to be exhibited, and the crowd
followed, filling the street. A man
who stood by the viaduct stated that
it took 42 minutes for them to pass
that point, and they moved in a body
that filled the street and walks, and
no vehicles were included in the
mass
The train for the north had gone
when people were ready to go home,
and the Short Line people made up a
train of six coaches to go as far as
Idaho Falls, and others in other di-
rections. The one coming north was
packed, both in seats and aisles.

WENT TO COPPER BASIN

Chickens are ripe and picking be-
gan Thursday morning. Several
parties of Blackfot sports took to
the hills within the past few days to
open the season with bang. Some
of them went by auto to Copper

and H. A. Mowrey, F. G. DeKay, G.
L. Braley, John G.. Brown, J. w.
Jones, Gregory Jones, E. w. Rowles
and M. N. Austin went out by rail.
