Some Notoriety.

The little town OF Rupert has been
courting considerable notoriety the
past week. From Pendleton paper
we note that one OF the residents OF
that section is looking for an Indian
girl for a wife and has inserted an ad
in the Oregon paper to that effect.
VIM. Hadenfelt is the man and the
paper states that he is so bent on his
desires that he has enlisted the aid of
this paper In discovering her. In the
local column today will be found his
ad. He gives his age. weight height
and shade, also his landed wealth.
He does not show himself to be par
ticular man. He requires not beauty
nor grace In the girl he wants. His
only specification is that she must
have means.
Following this comes a dispatch
from Rupert which would indicate
that the section has been entertain
ing a highway robber for some time.
The dispatch in question says;
Edward b. Trafton of Denver Is
under arrest at Rupert, Idaho. on the
charge of holding up s stages In Yel-
lowstone National Park July 20,
1914, and robbing the passengers of
$4,000 in money and jewelry.
The robbery of the stages attracted
attention because people from all
parts OF the world we're relieved OF
their valuables.
Trafton is being held In custody
and United States Deputy Marshal
lChas. Arbuckle of Boise, is waiting
for papers from Federal Judge Diet

Numerous inquiries have been
made during the past few weeks from
parties who have captured one or
more coyotes as to the steps to take
to obtain the bounty offered for them.
The last session of the legislature Gre
ated a predatory animal law which
is under the jurisdiction of the state
veterinarian office. This law re-
qaires that at least one man In each

ideal one for the task and early In

As 1t was previously stated. II was
not anticipated that any permanent
work would be done on that day, the
main object being TO remove the
rocks from the thoroughfares. and re-
pair culyerts where needed. and In
other ways improve the roads already
built. II would be impossible for us
TO attempt to detail all the work that
was done on that day. but those who
have occasion 10 use most any of the

Both pitchers we're In splendid

helpless. Several times each side
threatened to score, but good pitch

threatened runs. Twice, with men

field, only to have them caught In
sensational plays and the side retired.
Jimmy Fitzler held up Ashenfelter
in fine shape and turned back every

pilfer second.
For seven innings no runs were
scored and Jerome had been retired
in their half of the eighth. Twin filed

Nothing Hidden.

William Marconi, inventor of the
wireless telegraph, made it known
before sailing for Italy. says the ev-
ening World. that he has invented an
apparatus by means of which it is
possible for a person standing beside
a solid partition. such as brick wall,
to look through the partition and OBJ
serve what is happening on the other
side, just as If there were no obstacle
interposed to the vision.
Mr.. Marconi is quoted as saying
that the device has been perfected to
the point where persons in Il room
can see persons in an adjoining room,
looking through the wall, If the per-
sons viewed are close to the wall, but
that at distance from the wall they
become blurred The possibilities
for evil involved in the apparatus. ii
is asserted, have made Mr.. Marconi
reluctant to make known his inven-
tion.

The Gem State Packing Co. virtual
ly passed out of existence last Thurs
day. when the stockholders, at spe-
cial meeting, decided to exchange
their stock in the Gem State company
for stock In the Fales-Houston Pack

the Gem State company, including the
capital stock. 1t is not the purpose
to transfer the business to Pocatello
before the first of next year and in
the meantime it is expected that the
Gooding plant and business will be
sold to someone who will continue
the business here. 1t has been a pay

Among the Movies.

The stars OF the movie world are
seemingly now commanding more at
tention and admiration than any
other class of actors and actresses.
Miss Margaret Edwards. who enacted
the role of Naked Truth" in the
notorious film production. the 'Hyp-
ocrites," recently appeared on the
exposition grounds at San Diego, and
it kept the officers busy in keeping
the crowds away from her. 1t is said
that the attendant who carried her
grip containing her wardrobe, re-
marked that he did not believe there
was anything in the grip but imagi-
nation. And he was about right as
the raiment was eve-like for its brew
ity and upon which the dressmaker
had been very stingy.
At the same time exposition visit
ors had the pleasure of meeting an
other star in the movie world. who
was no other than dainty Mary Pick
ford. who came to San Diego and the
Exposition with the Famous Players
company to enact a screen thriller.
Part of this was made on board the
palatial yacht Venetia owned by John
d. Spreckles. Big crowds followed
Miss Pickford through the Exposition
grounds while the most ardent of the
movie fans pressed forward to shake
hands with her. Miss Pickford yer,
graciously received them and talked
with them about the movie art al
much as her time, estimated at $1O4,
600 a year, would permit.
Miss Pickford will soon be seen a
the Idaho Theatre in one of he
greatest productions, "The Eagle
Mate" Watch for the date of tn,
appearance and don't miss it.

Testimony As to the women's Peace
 Congress.

Testimony As to tho Women's Peace ] (Springneld Republican,
 l A very interesting story of the
 women's international congress at , The Hague is brought home by Mrs. !. Glendower Evans of Boston. who at
 tended as a representative of the
 Massachusetts branch of the women's
 peace party. She reports that there
 was perfect harmony between the 1,s2s delegates representing Is na. 1 tionalities The most important fea-
 ture Of the gathering to Mrs. Evans i was the demonstration of the soli-
 darity of the mother heart the only , international interest that has not been paralgzed by the war" There was notable absence of any na- tionaI antagonism. The five Belgian
 delegates were given seats on the
 platform where Miss Jane Addams,
 who presided, sat with two English
 women on her right, and two German women on her left. There was some difference of opinion over the propo-
 sitfon of having delegates carry to the rulers of the belligerent and neutral nations of Europe, and to the president of the United States, the resolutions urging governments of the world to put an end to the war and to establish a permanent peace. It was doubted whether this would prove to be so practicable as 1t is now shown to be.
 Of even more interest are .observa- A2 Ts l. IL ftAk Brooklyn, another returned Hague delegate, who agrees with Mrs. Evans as to the conduct of thu women com posing the international congress, but is glad they wound up proceedings before the Lusitania was sent to the 5 bottom. She says the effect of that deed has been very great even among those who might have been deemed so wonted to the innumrable trage- dies of the war that nothing could move them to deeper feeling. Mrs. Cothern's testimony at this point. is impressive: Tt is impossible to make the people here understand the effect of that disaster on Europe. If we had got the word of it during the ses- sions Of the conference it might have altered our action" Tn going to and coming from The Hague Mrs. Got hren gathered a basis on which to compare the feeling in England. She testifies:
 I was amazed to note the change l in British sentiment during the per- iod Of few weeks. England is l aname against Germany for the first 1 time. There was no hatred against l Germany in the hearts of the British l prior to the use of deadly gases end l the sinking of the Lusitania. Now | it is all different. Nobody there wants peace now. and the same feeling ex- tends to the men in the trenches.

AS the evening shadows length
ened about the gray prison walls,
the woman with her child walked
disconsolately and aimlessly away
from the entrance. She was hope
less, where a few hours before
she had been so hopeful. And
then inspiration brought return
ing hope. What was it the Off
Ger had said about the Governor
That he could release her hus-
band! Immediately new pur-
pose was born. No longer aim
less, she stepped briskly to the
trolley line and boarded a car
which bore her swiftly away from

1t was noon at the capitol. The
Governor came out from his pri-
vate office, hat in hand and
started briskly toward an outer
door. He was eager to get out
doors after forenoon's work on
the pile of correspondence that
had accumulated on his desk dur
ing a short absence from the city.
lust at the door, he felt a hand
pluck timidly at his sleeve, and
a woman's voice inquire: Are
you the Governor"
He turned and faced young
woman, with babe in her arms,
and lines of trouble deep in her
face. The Governor smiled kind
ly. Without a word he knew the
woman's mission. Governors
learn quickly that most of the
women who come to the execu-
tive offices alone, come to plead
for hayward sons or husbands.
No one knows better than the
executive of a state the degree
of the punishment the law intends
for the guilty which falls on the
innocent.

answered. "But l am just going
out now. Can't you come in to

ooh, sir! | have been waiting
SO long for you to come out, and
| am so tired. l just want you to
pardon my man. Me and the
baby need him so bad. Can't you
do it now?" and as she spoke, her
face expressive of mingled hope
and despair, her voice choked in
great sob.
"Tell me about your husband, :
said the Governor, as he led her
to a chair, with thoughts of his
own babies in his mind. His
tone was so kindly and encourag-
ing that it was a moment before
the woman's emotions would per-
NIT her to speak. And then she
told her story, the same story
she had told to the parole board
the preceding afternoon.
The Governors interest was
excited. He called clerk and in
structed him to communicate
with the prison officials by tele-
phone and secure the facts as they
knew them concerning the case of
the woman's husband. "You come
