Several families who live 'r Idaho
county are planning on sending their
children to Grangeville to attend the
high school during the coming school
year. Some will move to Grangeville
to live during the time their children
are attending school. Grangeville is
beginning to feel well repaid for its
efforts in erecting one of the most
modern school buildings in the state
and in making their school one of the
best in the state with reference to
teaching facilities.

WARREN CAMP, LOOKING UP.
Reported That Jay Czizek Taking Out
$5,000.00 Per Week.
Capital News.

(Capltal News.
Mccall, Aug. l2.-The Boston Idaho
Dredge company, which for the past
few years has been operating power
full dredge in the old placer fields of
the Boise Basin, has purchased 1900
acres of rich placer grounds in the ia
nous Warrens gold district, so miles
north of Payette lake. This company
will move its great dredge and sawmill
to Warren via Mccall. 1t is reported
the dredge and sawmill total 100000
pounds, all of which will be freighted
from Mccall to Warren, Mccall being
! the northern terminus of the Idaho
Northern railroad. The dredge will be
put into operation in Warren creek,
which carries a plentiful supply of
water for operating the big dredge.
The sawmill will be used to saw the
big dredge timbers and any other lum-
Der or dimension stuff needed.
1t is said the Boston Idaho Dredge
company will complete its dredging OPP
erations in the Boise basin within the
next three months, at the end of which
time the dredge and sawmill will be
moved to Warren, which gives every
evidence of becoming Idaho's greatest
gold mining camp, in the near future.
Takes Out $4,000 Week.
j. A. Click the well known mine
owner of Boise, has purchased mod
ern s-Chalmers five-stamp mill and
will install it at his splendid gold mine
at Warren. With the present small
stamp mill at his mine, Mr.. Czizek is
reported to be taking out $4,000 in gold
per week, which is at the rate of $780,
900 per year. When his new and larger
stamp mill is installed, there is no
doubt Mr.. Czizek will get still larger
returns from his mine. Mr.. Czizek
struck it rich at his mine this spring.
The ore taken from this mine is high
grade. He already has body of this
ore uncovered that will require two
years to take out. 1t is said there is
much larger body of ore on his val
liable property, which will be reached
by sinking shaft. Mr.. Czizek has a
force of Is men at work.
There is more mining activity in the
Warren district than ever before
known. 1t gives promise of becoming
one of the great gold camps of the
northwest.

THAT BACKWARD BOY.

Now would be a good time to have
the eyes of your boy or girl attended to
that showed symptoms of weak eyes
last term of school. The backward or
unprogressive boy. or girl in school is
usually the child with the hidden eye
defect that teacher, parent and regular
doctor cannot detect. We have even
seen or known of eye examiners to over
look eye defects in young children be-
cause the focusing muscles in the childs
eyes were SO extremely active as to
lead the examiner astray. We have
cases on our books that verify the
above. Few people realize to what ex-
tent children are weakened and. made
to dislike all book study because of
some existing eye defect; this is often
overlooked and left uncorrected, and
the defects grow and become "set,o
then the child is saddled for life with a
defect of the eyes that require the con-
slant wearing of glasses, this to re-
lieve the nervous and head troubles
brought on by the eye defects. The
glasses are then crutches to the eyes
and seldom dispensed with after. The
thoughtful parent who looks into the
future will try to see that their child g
eyes are protected in the Formative
period to avoid the wearing of glasses
in the future. If you wish honest ana
reliable information regarding your
eyes, have them thoroughly examined
by DIR. W. s.. JACKSON, the Eyesight
Specialist, in A. & F. Block, Main St.,

DEADLY EARTHQUAKE
Shock Did Much Damage in Southern
California.


FL Centre, Cal, June 23.--The
earthquake which last night severely
shook the little cluster of towns in
the Imperial Valley cost half dozen
or more lives in the Mexican border
town of Mexicali and ruined property
to the extent of over million dol
lars. Further shocks, not quite as
severe as those of last night, were
felt today, and the inhabitants are ex-
hibiting anxiety over the great irriga-
tion system. Engineers today report
ed that another shock as severe -
the one last night undoubtedly would
wreck these works.
While scientists described last
nights shocks as the resultant of I'm
known forces they appeared to
agree that it lay along the line of
what is known as the San Andreas
fault in the earth's formation, which
was involved in the North-Central
California earthquake of 1906
Martial law has been declared at
Colexico and Mexicali following a
reign of terror in both towns. Amer
lean cavalry are patrolling the streets
in the former town, while Villa sol

Damage estimated at 100000 was
done in the district extending roughly
from the shoulder of the Cocopan
Mountains of Lower California to San
Bernhardino and Needles, Cal, on
the north, Yuma on the east, and
San Diego on the west.

BUILDING OUR BIG CANAL.
The Human Problem overshadowed
the Engineering Difficulties.

the Engineering DiHicuities.
The general Impression prevailed from
the beginning that the building of the
Panama canal comprised one of the
worlds greatest engineering feats, and
the tremendous scope of the work as it
developed during the construction pc
Rod served to mold this impression
into fixed belief. yet Mr. Stevens,
who for nearly two years had control
on the isthmus not only of all CON
struction, but of those yarions co-ordi
nate branches which We're essential adj
juncts 10 the building of the canal. ex-
pressed the opiniOn that the engineer
ing features were the least difficult,
describing them as ''of magnitude and
not of intricacyv On the other hand,
his experience convinced him that the
administrative problems were the
greater, presenting as they did many
unusual features involving an i'm
mense amount of detail and extending
into every branch of business, with
qualifications touching many phases OF
social and domestic economy.
In every undertaking of an engineer
ing character there must necessarl-
ly he greater or less amount of ad-
minlstrative detail resulting from
problems of supply. labor, policy and
considerations arising out of them. In
the case of the Panama canal not only
were these problems present, but as
compared with those Of engineering
they made the latter appear relatively
small.
The very magnitude of the work I'M
posed difficulties which would have
existed even had Ii been undertaken in

these difficulties were increased mate
