CLAIM IS CONTESTED.

j. ID. Daubenspeck a rancher of Skoo-
stead in that section several months ago
has just returned from Grangeville
where he filed answer to contest in
stituted by Jake Wilson for possession
of the claim. The grounds upon which
the contest is based are specifically,
noncompliance with the homestead laws
of cultivation, improvements and con-
structive residence. Entry upon the
claim in question was made by the
present incumbent in October 1913, and
residence according to Daubenspeck was
commenced at once. Later on an ex-
tension was filed and the land classified
under the enlarged homestead act which
provides that actual residence is not
required. Daubenspeck claims to have
met all the stipulations of the home
stead laws and AYERS that twenty acres
of the claim have been placed in cult
walton. DeHaven and Scales of Grange
vile have been employed to defend the
action. The case will doubtless be
tried in Grangeville some time this
month and the outcome is awaited with
interest as the claim is one of the
choicest in the Salmon river section

"HERE is something helpful and
inspiring for every one at the
Exposition. Said Vice Presi-
dent Marshall recently: who
ever can, even at a sacrifice OF some
thing which for the moment appears
necessary, should come to see real
work of art never equaled, even by
mirage If there be any one In Amer
lea with thirst for knowledge and for
beauty and longing for liberal edu-
cation, such one can obtain 1t here.
This is the university of the world.
1t has a chair fully endowed to meet
the wants and needs of each. The eye,
the ear, the mind, the heart, the soul,
each may have its horizon here enlarg-
ed. l came to bear a message. re-
main to become student. l leave the
feet of this Gamaliel Of all expositions
with regret" And Miss Helen Keller,
who. as all know, Is both blind and
deaf, having acquired the faculty Of
speech, although she has never heard
any one speak, said of her visit to the
Exposition that it was the most inspir-
erick ]. v. Skiff: Here the world Is
shown in epitome. The visitor from
whatever realm here enters into his ma
tive land"
Apart from its costly and compre-
hensive displays. the great Exposition
is an inspiration in itself. In Its archi-
tectural beauty the Panama. Pacific In
ternational Exposition surpasses any
of its predecessors. At night the great
Tower of Jewels stands out satin
white, sparkling with a thousand
changing colors, as batteries of search
lights play upon this pyramidal monu-
ment, the loftiest structure at the Ex-
position and as tall as the average thir-
ty-fiye story city block. The coloring
of the Exposition. the decorative light
ing at night. the sculpture and the
landscaping are all the work of the

MYsTERIoUsLY DISAPPEARS.

George Snyder prominent stock man
and veteran of the civil war residing
near higgins Hot Springs has been
missing from home for more than a
week. The last seen of Snyder was
nearly two weeks ago when he apprised
friends of his intention to ride across
the mountains to Grangeville to cele-
brate the fourth. Last Friday morning
neighbors passing the house of the
missing man noticed no signs of life
and began Investigations. They found
the doors of the house unlocked and
several articles of clothing, a suit case
which Snyder is known to have had
around the premises missing, and the
room in somewhat disordered eondi-
ton. Going out to the barn they
found several head of horses belonging
to Snyder tied up to the managers and
furnishing for food and water. Search
ing parties were at once organized and
the hills and gulehes contiguous to the
Snyder ranch are being secured in hope
of locating the aged man.
Mystery has been added to the case
by finding the saddle horse Snyder is
supposed to have ridden to Grangeville
running at large on the range and
minus saddle and bride.
Snyder is one of the oldest settlers
in the Salmon river country coming
here and taking up residence after the
close of the civil war. He is "a years
old and unmarried.

evening. Mr.. Snyder came to Grange
vile to secure some parts for moving
machine, He told Grangeville friends
that he left his home in a hurry and
failing to be able to notify friends had
placed water and feed in his barn for
the stock.
Mr.. Snyder left Grangeville Friday
and stayed all night at Adams camp
The next day he took dinner in Florence
and secured horse there to make til
trip to his ranch. His movements after
leaving Grangeville were learned no lay

public sentiment has been aroused to a

located "neck tie" party is sure to
follow. Arrests are expected to fol

Representatives of the English and
French goernments who made the trip

Tuesday of this week in quest of

About fifty head were brought into

were speedy enough to keep out It the
