MANY FEVER CASES
More Virulent This Season With More.
Fatalities Than Usual.

To date DR.. Mather reports nineteen
cases of spotted fever, with three
deaths as against the previous record
OF eight deaths out of 316 cases. The
average of all cases is severer this
season than usual
MAZE" Haper, whose death was
reported by The Times three weeks
ago, was the first victim this season.
The next was Basco sheepherder who
was sick two days in camp before
coming to town and died the second
day after his arrival at the hospital.
He was buried from the Catholic
church here last Saturday, services be-
ing conducted by Rev. Father Arregui.
The last victim was Theodore
Thompson, who was picked up on
the street where he had fallen. He had
been wandering about for days, no one
realizing his condition. Thompson was
a stranger here and when it was real

WANDfRS FOR
EIGHT YEARS
Loss Of Memory Put John Howell
In Sad Plight.
SHERIFF KENDALL FINDS HOW
ELL AT HOUSE CREEK
History of Long Journey From Port
land Il Mystery. Evidently Seeking
His Twin Falls Relatives.

While Sheriff Frank Kendall was at
House creek the first of the week on
official business he learned that man
was wandering around that part of
the county in demented condition.
The sheriff found the man and it
could be seen that his mind was not
entirely right. His hair was long
and his beard was in an unkempt con-
ditiOn. His clothes were nothing but
tatters. Mr.. Kendall brought him to
this city and he gave his name as
John Howell, and that he was a
brOther-in-law of Thomas Newbry, of
Kimberly. Mr.. Howell left Twin Falls
about eight years ago with sister for
Portland, Ore, and disappeared from
the city and that was the last ever
heard Of him until found by Sheriff
Kendall Tuesday He was taken to
the home of Mr.. Newbry, at Kimberly,
where 1t is thought that with medical
treatment, he will soon be himself
again. 1t is thought that while Mr.. How
ell was around the House creek coun-
try he lived on fish and what rabbits

STRAY BULLET HITS FARMER
Fred Lindaver, OF Rupert, Victim OF
Peculiar Accident.

Fred Lindauer was the victim of a
peculiar accident last Saturday even
ming about six o'clock. He was driv-
ing along the road In front of the j. f..
Stacey place going east, when %
calibre bullet entered his right should
er and ranged toward the spinal col
umn, indicating that it came from the
southwest. The bullet was prObed for,
but could not be located and Sunday
morning Mr.. Lindauer was taken to
the hospital at Twin Falls, where X
Ray pictures were taken, and they fail
ed to show the bullet.
The wound is healing nicely and
while it is very painful, the victim is
able to move around some, but will
not be able to work for some time.
/ 1t is not thought that the bullet was
intended for Mr.. Lindauer, but that il
is simply another Of the results OF
prpmiscuous shooting of which there
is entirely too much.-Rupert Record

GETS INTO TROUBLE
Jenkins and Company Forced to Sac
rffice Merchandise.

There is not a fiercer hell than
failure in great object Such has
been the experience of many. Every
SO often there is one more victim of
too great an ambition. The sands of
time are strewn with wrecks of men
who dreamed of greater things than
they were able to accomplish. Four
years ago the firm of Jenkins and
Company entered the mercantile busi-
ness in Twin Falls and built up a
splendid business by conscientious
trading, carrying well assorted
stock at popular prices, and serving
the public in most admirable way.
Their business grew with remarkable
rapidity, the public appreciating the
progressiveness of the concern. Their
troubles began when the scheme to
run chain of stores was evolved, the
Burley and Buhl stores were opened,
and it would seem at the worst time,
for with the trade depression caused
through the great war and the low
prices realized by the farmers, they
began to lose money fast. Tremen-
dous efforts were made to redeem
the situation by holding special sales
in the branch stores and at the par
ent store in Twin Falls. jenkins and
company are seeking to raise twenty
thousand dollars within twenty days
They have cut prices on all dry goods
mems and boys clothing, in fact, ev-
erything throughout the store is be-
| ing sacrificed. Their sale starts Sat
urday, May first. 1t is to be hoped
that they will realize the resiret
amount, as Twin Falls does not lool
with favor upon the failure of an,
local store-Adv

FAST BALL GAME SATURDAY
Buhl High to Cross Bats With Twin
Falls High School.

One of the fastest ball games of the
season is promised for Saturday after
noon at the ball park, when the Buhl
high school team will cross bats with
the Twin Falls high school team. A
few weeks ago the local team went to
Buhl and defeated that team by score
OF three to two. The local team then
went to Kimberly and met defeat by
score of seven to one. The Buhl team
then in turn defeated the fast Kfmber-
ly team by score of three to one,
so it can be seen that the Twin Falls
boys will have to play ball to beat the
Buhl team. The game will be
called at three o'clock. The high
school team wishes that good crowd
will turn out for the fans are as
sured of one of the fastest games Of
the school season.

COUNTIES MUST ACT PROMPTLY
Note of Warming From State Highway
Commission.

Counties in this state wishing to do
state highway construction work on
those portions of the state highway
system within, their respective coun-
ties should make the fact known i'm
mediately to the state highway COM
mission and secure the apportionment
to which they are entitled, for next
year the balance of the fund may be
reapportioned and the figures set aside
for them will be different. The state
highway commission now in session
here with the secretary of state, and
which let contracts today, is anxious to
have the counties making use of the
funds available and desires to have
the respective counties apply for it so
that construction work can be done
this year.
The commission let three contracts
today for highway construction in va
riOus parts OF the state for which bids
were submitted The Idaho Construc-
tion company was awarded the con-
tract for construction of that portion
of the state highway from American
Falls east to the Fort Hall Indian res
ervation line and another portion in
Bannock county from Lind east to the
Bannock-Bear Lake county line. The
third contract went to C. 8. CONNER
ford and is for construction of por
ton of the state highway from Ameri-
lean Falls west to the Power-Cassia
county line.
The state treasurer recently dispos-
ed of. the 100000 bond issue and now
has the money raised from it's SALE
1t was apportioned by the old state
highway commission together with
other funds among the respective
counties. Under the terms of the law to
secure their share of the apportion-
ment counties must raise two-thirds
of the cost of construction of the high
way in their boundaries and the state
raises the other one-third This fur
nishes the total cost of construction
work and makes construction possible.
The commission having the funds,
therefore, is anxious for the counties
to make use Of it.-Capital News.

VERDICT EQUALS LuDLow's BLOT
Forced by Rockefeller As a warning to
Union Labor Everywhere"

Here is what the editor of the Daily
Ncws-Bce of Toledo. Ohio. thinks of the
Lawson conviction at Trinidad;
The conviction of John r. Lawson.
Colorado coal strike leader. must go down
in history as companion blot to the
Ludlow massacre.
"Doth are concrete examples of how
John u. Rockefeller jr.. Furnishes those
toilcrs who dare oppose his avowed plan
to enforce the open shop in American
industry.
Women and children were shot and
smothercd at Ludlow. on land leased by
the strikers, by coal company gunmen in
the uniform OF Colorado's militia.
Lawson was convicted OF numbering n
mine guard deputy. Not single wit
ness even pretended that Lawson shot
him.
''rhc only claim OF deputy attorneys
general ordered by Governor Carlson to
prosecute Lawson was that he was in
charge OF the ludlow tent colony the day
the deputy was killed in battle with
strikers.
Overwhelming testimony showed that
mine guards began the battle. that Law
son was not out of the colony during the
battle except to escort mine supcrin-
tcndcnt's daughter ont Of danger.
The verdict is intended by Rockefeller
as n warming to organized labor every
where of what to expect II it opposes
his open shop plans"
