They Captured A Porcupine

When he returned nome Satur-
day night about II o'clock from
town Frank Kelsey ran foul of
some strange animal in his front
yard and proceeded at once to in
vestigate. The visitor was a
queer looking bundle which he at
first took to be a badger but close
inspection proved it to be a por-
cupine that had strayed far from
it's native heath and Frank was
moved with a desire to capture it
alive. Calling his brother, Will,
who was asleep in the house, he
held the animal in the yard while
Will secured a wash tub and the
quilted visitor was soon under the
tub and safe from harm.
The porcupine has held the CEN
ter of attraction in the show win
dow of the Hoene hardware store
this week and has been viewed
by hundreds, many of whom
acknowledged it as being the first
they had ever seen. The porcu-
pine does not seem to mind its
captivity and is proving a source
of much amusement to the small
boys, scores of whom gather
around the window each evening
when the little animal comes out
of it's daily nap and gets busy in
its cage.

Starting A New Industry

T. A. Randall, a local confec-
toner, is building up quite a
trade this year, in his pure, home
made ice cream among the deal
ers on the prairie. Besides
furnishing cream for his own
trade and that of another local
dealer, he is also supplying a
store at Ferdinand and shipping
as high as twenty gallons of
cream to that place each week.
He is turning out a fine article in
the way of ice cream and plans
on putting in a large power freez-
er next spring and making a bid
for the greater part of the ice
cream trade of the prairie. Judg-
ing from his present product, he
is very liable to corner a good
share of the trade.

A. N. Rogers, who has been
living in California for several

The Farmer And His Car.

The automobile is rapidly be-
coming the farmers most valu-
able piece of machinery and, be-
sides eating up time and distance
and placing him in close touch
with his neighbors and his home
town, it also takes the place
frequently of a more cumbersome
vehicle in transporting various
supplies from the towns to farm
ers home. In fact, we have fre-
quently seen during the past
summer farmers taking hom e
binder twine and grain sacks in
their cars as we'll as hauling out
machine extras, hardware and
light articles of various kinds.
From this it is only a small step
to larger things and we shall not
be surprised, when in time our
roads become hard surfaced and
the grade materially reduced, to
see the farmer driving his car
into town with a wagon load of
hogs or veal or other farm pro-
ducts hitched on behind. This
may sound rather far fetched at
this time, but wait a few years
and see how far it misses real
ization.

Children Burned to Death

Twin Falls, Idaho, Aug. 23.-
Five children, aged two to eight,
were burned to death in the home
of Mr.. and Mrs. John Tooth, 35
miles southeast of Twin Falls,
Saturday night, according to
word received here today. Four
of the children, the youngest two
years and the oldest eight, were
those of Mr.. and Mrs. Tooth, and
the fifth was the eight-year-old
daughter of their neighbor Julius
Harrison.
All were locked in the home of
the Tooths while their parents
went to Churchill, three miles
distant, to attend a party. The
fire was noticed by the parents
when two miles away and Tooth
returning found the house nearly
consumed by fire. The bodies
of the children were found in
various parts of the ruins, indica-
ting their attempts to escape.
The body of the eight year old
Tooth girl was found clasping in
her arms that of the two year old
babv. The origin of the fire is
unknown.

Local Firm Secures
Dodge Car Agency

A demonstration of the new
Dodge automobile was in town
Monday showing local people
what the car can negotiate in
the way of steep hills and bad
roads and before he left plans
were completed whereby the
Cottonwood Hdw. & Imp. co.
are to handle the agency for this
populor car in Idaho county the
coming season. The demonstrator
hauled five persons up the steep
hill near the Baptist church on
intermediate gear at a speed OF
about 25 miles an hour and then
pulled up the steep bank opposite
the flour mill with his car loaded
and came down again the
same way, after which he hauled
a load up the steep grassy hill
back of the electric light station
until he reached a point where the
passengers were inclined to leave
the car for fear it would tip over
backward.
The Dodge is a classy little cal

doubt many of them will Vi be plac,
ed hereabouts during the coming
season. A sub agency was alse
established at Grangeville, which
will secure their cars through the
local dealers.

Train Went Through Trestle.

The Lewiston bound freight
train of fivecars plunged through
burning trestle near Troy early
Tuesday morning and was COM
pletely destroyed by fire, the en-
gineer being killed and the fire.
man seriously injured. The train
was running on schedule time
and ran onto the trestle before
the fire was noticed. The engine
broke through and the tender and
freight cars piled up on it, the
engineer being caught between
the cab and tender and crushed to
death. The fire was probably set
by cinders from the last train
over the trestle the night before
and had been burning the wood
en- supports of the trestle for
about seven hours before the
wreck occurred. Two of the freigh
cars were loaded with wheat and
two with mixed merchandise, the
fifth car being one of the re-
frigerator class loaded with meats
and lard.
Elmer Vetter, the dead engi-
neer, was 81 years old, leaves a
wife and a 5-year old son in Spo-
kane. He had been in the rail
road business for a number of
years and had been in tw
wrecks before but had escaped
injury both times.
Railway officials from Spokane
visited the scene of the wreck
and a track was soon built around
the trestle and the line opened
for traffic until such time as the
trestle could be rebuilt.
