NEW CURE FOR RHEUMATISM
Woman Who Had Suffered for Many
Years Is Cured by Bolt OF
Lightning.

The medical faculty was put to
shame by a bolt of lightning which
the other night struck the farmhouse
of Charles A. Burdick, on Washing
ton Ridge, says the Berlin Comm
correspondent of the New York Her
aid. The electric bolt destroyed artl-
Giles in all the eight rooms of the
house and did damage exceeding ST.
900, but it cured Mrs Burdick of rheu-
matism, from which she had suffered
for many years.
Mrs. Burdick was about to put wood
in the kitchen stove when the bolt
struck her, knocking her down and
rendering her unconscious. One of
her feet was on zinc beneath the
stove. The lightning took nail out
of the sole of her shoe and her foot
was severely burned. DR.. Thomas
Mulligan of New Britain soon revived
her.
Today Mrs. Burdick, although suf-
fering from the burns on her foot,
was free from rheumatic pains. She
does not think the price her husband
must pay in repairs to the house too
high, but Mr.. Burdick is discreetly 81
lent.

When General Miles was a the head

other martial inventions. But the gen

A card was brought in and laid be-
fore the general.
"Oh, send him in" said Miles. His
business won't take more than min

man twisting his soft hat nervously
in both hands.

Facts.

Chairman W. A. Brodhead of the
State Highway commission, who left
this city last Sunday morning for
Boise in his automobile, accompanied
by his wife, returned home Friday.
Mr. Brodhead returned by rail. AS
il was raining and showing in Boise
he decided to leave his car there un-
til he goes back to the capital city
Monday. Mrs. Brodhead remained in
Boise to visit relatives and friends.
In regard to the work of the COM
mission, Chairman Brodhead states
that II hopes to be able in the near
future to let a contract for the con-
struction of a section of the Boise,
Wood River and Yellowstone road,
between HALEY and soldier.
The Midland Bridge Co. will soon
begin the construction OF bridges on
the Sawtooth Park road between this
city and Richfield.
The commission is OF the opinion
that double the number of automo
bile licenses will be issued this yeal
than were issued in 1914.
Work is now progressing on sec
tions of the Idaho-Pacific highway IL

HILL AFTER WESTERN PACIFIC
The Most Important Railroad News
That This Section Has Ever
Received.

That the Hill interests and the San
ia Fe are negotiating for control of
the Western Pacific railroad and may
dictate it's reorganization when II is
released by the receivers now in
charge, is the information that rail-
road men here have received. Since
his visit to the Pacific coast, Jacob
Schiff is said to have been active and
new interests have been active nego-
tiating for control of the Western
Pacific.
The Hill interests desire the West
ern Pacific as il would give the Bur-
lington a line direct to the Pacific
coast and an entrance into San Fran
cisco. which the Hill interests have
been after for several years. The
placing OF trains on the Union Pacific
by the Burlington is said to be a
movement on the part of those inter
ested in the building of the Burling-
ton further west or its getting control
of the Western, Pacific to placate the
Hill interests In the matter of coast

vegetables from out the state. The
total imports we're 90 tons In excess
OF the exports. At the same time
there was a great amount Of vegeta-

the information that there has al
ready been a large number of bonds
purchased by the two roads-Capi-
tai News.
The above item of railroad news
has probably more significance to this
particular section of the state than
many would think from a casual
reading of it. 1t has been known for
some time that the Hill lines have
been looking with a wistful eye on
the tonnage that this section is capable
of producing and statistics have been
gathered by the Hill interests touch
ing the shipments from the Idaho
Falls section as we'll as this and the
south side sections, and il has been
predicted by some close to the Hill
interests that the first line to the
coast through this section will be an
extension of the Burlington system
from their Wyoming terminus, and
with the acquisition of the Western
Pacific by the Hill interests. the pre-
dictions as made would likely be con-
sumated by the extension of the Burl-
ington lines. which are controlled by
Hill, through this section to a con-
nection with the Western Pacific. We
look forward to some active railroad
building through this section within
the next year.
