MAY UNUSUALLY COLD
AND WET SAYS THE
WEATHER BUNEAU

The bulletin of the United States
Weather Bureau for May is at hand.
The general weather conditions in
Idaho are reported as follows:
The month was unusually cool,
cloudy and wet. The mean tempera-
ture was practically the same as that
for April, and yet the damage from
frost was slight. 1he number of
cloudy days and the number of rainy
days were, respectively, the greatest
on record for May. The average pre-
crpitation was almost an inch greater
than the average for any other month
since November, 1909. The heavy
precipitation, coming after prolong-
ed dry period, was most welcome,
thoroughly saturating the soil, aug
menting the flow of streams and less
ening the demands for irrigation, thus
permitting large quantities of water
to be stored for later use. Vegeta-
ton at the beginning of the month
was unusually we'll advanced. Dur
ing the month, owing to continued
low temperature, growth of many
crops were slow. Corn, potatoes and
hay crops were somewhat backward.
Small grains, pastures and range grass
were unusually good. Strawberries
and cherries were injured somewhat
by the cool, wet weather, and twig
blight became serious menace to
the apple crop in southwestern loca-
lities. Prunes promised an abund-
ance yield. Live stock made satisfac-
tory gains. By the close of the month
the scant supply of snow in the hills
was practically gone, but the heavy
rains caused the streams to carry a
fairly satisfactory supply of water.
Local Weather Conditions.
The following weather data were
furnished by DR., w J. Boone, OBJ
server at this point. Length of record
10 years; highest temperature May 8,
SO; lowest, May ? and others, 81; total
precipitation in inches, 800; departure
from normal plus 100 inches; greatest
in "a hours O.56 inches; number of
days with precipitation 0Ol inches IS;
clear days, 8, partly cloudy 5, cloudy
18; prevailing direction of wind, east.

NAMPA GIVES UP GHOST
AFTER A LONG AND
BITTER STRUGGLE

The Nampa team, which led the
league up to last Sunday were jolted
out of first place by the Caldwell
team, by score of one to nothing
1t was pitchers battle from the
start between Schimp of the Nampa
team and Alexander of the home
team, the latter getting clearly the
better of it, no hits being made off
him until the last inning, when Ell
well singled for the only hit that was
registered up for the visitors. Schimp
Jared a little worse, six hits being
made of his delivery and three of
these coming in one inning spelled one
run and enough to win the game. The
game was replete with spectacular
plays and minus the Raging which was
made at umpire Smiths decisions, it
would have been one of the fastest
games ever staged on the local dia-
mond. Smith had a decidedly off
day and every decision that he made,
appeared to have about fifty per cent
of guess about it. In the eighth in
ming he called Schimp out at the
bat after he had called only two
strikes and three balls on him. This
caused howl from the Nampa bench,
but Smith contended that Shimp had
had the regulation number of strikes
and refused to change his decision.
Manager Nokelby was so full of wrath
that he notified the scorer that the
game would be protested, and protest
it he did; although, the only consola-
ton he got was to secure the dismiss
sal of Smith as an umpire. The game
still stands and according to the Presi-
dent Ash, if he allowed such protest,
he would have at least one every
week, of the same sort.
This places Ontario at the head of
the League with Nampa second and
Caldwell close third, and Boise in
the cool depths.
The local team is one of the fastest
that has worn a Caldwell uniform in
recent years, according to critics who
have followed the games here since
Heck was a pup" The in6eld in
particular, with Pierce, Bigbee, Cor
nell and Westcott, works like a well
oiled piece of machinery, and is ably
seconded bv the stellar work of Alex
ander ard Webb the battery.
The team is hitting we'll and as a
whole are outhitting the other out
fits in the Idaho-Oregon league.
The locals will meet the Boise ag-
gregation at Recreation Park Sunday
and Judging from past performances
Caldwell will have the battle of the
season If they are successful in de-
feating Bersing's crew.

SPRING.

In the spring young mans fancy,
Lightly turns to thoughts of love,
And the eyes of little Nancy
Turn to many hats above.
While his fingers truly nimble
Weave tender sweet refrain,
She is hunting for timble,
And is pinning up her train.
When on spring he writes a sonnet
Spouting many foolish notions.
She is sewing on bonnet.
Trying it with many motions.
As he speaks without a bobble
OF the passion she inspires,
She is thinking of the wobble
OF the feather she desires.
Then as fondly he proposes
She accepts his hand with rapture,
Glad because she now supposes:
Beautiful trousseau to capture"

Robert Warwick in
THE MAN WHO FOUND HIM
SELF"

Music was the first art which attrac-
ted Robert Warwick. He studied
singing in Europe, but his voice went
back on him and he turned to the
stage and made a success under Mr.
David Belasco and other great impre-
sari
Robert Warwick is a product Of the
west and dared much when he went
east to make good on the New York
stage. That is one OF his character
istics: determination. 1t has carried
him through many hazardous enter
prises. For Bob" as he is known
to his few intimates, is a man of many
parts and activities.
When the World Film offered him
the position of star, and the play sell
ected for his film debut was George
Broadhurst's Man of the Hour" with
which WilliamA Brady had made so
striking a success, Robert Warwick's
life chanc- nal come. Under Maurice
Tourner dr's mastery direction, Mr..
Warwick gave a delineation of the
leading role which instantly establish
ed his as the best graced actor on the
motion picture screen, certainly in
the United States, probably the whole
world.
In THE Dollar Mark" Warwick
has to evince some strenuous athletic
ism: He risked his life in the bursting
of a mill dam. For the famous pic
ture alias Jimmy Valentine" he went
and lived at Sing Sing in order to get
into the skin of the part of the con-
Wet who wanted to reform. The same
is true with "The Man who Found
Himself" the photoplay which he has
assumed next.
A sincere, handsome, more polished
actor you cannot see on the screen:
Matinee idol" doesn't describe War
wick; he's a man and mighty good
one. at that.
Which describes his personality.
Gentleman; scholar; sport; popularity
despising. but popular in spite of it;
such is Warwick
He's just as nice off the screen as
on it. Married? He can pick and
choose, if so minded, for his mail is
crowded with letters from adoring ad-
mirerS of the other sex. But Warwick
knows his own mind and nobody else
does. He loves his work and doesn't
shirk it. He is conscientious and
thorough in his impersonation. He
acts first; last and all the time-every
instant he is on the film he is acting
with his mind, his heart and body.

There was once pretty young girl
whose employer was known as odd
Skinflint." He paid his private secretary
IS week for sitting at a stuffy little
desk in a dark corner and working from
till g.
His own daughters got IS a day to ex-
pend in bright corners of archaeological
tea rooms or anywhere else they chose
And It never occurred to Old Skinflint
to think OF his private secretary as
exactly human and as full of the Joy of
living as were the butterfly young per-
sons whose allowances were so much
more because private secretaries were so
much less.
The wrongs OF the young woman who
earned IS a week instead of being
, given that much a day included the fact
that she had 70 hurry down a cold lunch
which the office boy brought her and to
stay at night frequently to get out let
ters OF which the boss bethought himself
at quarter to six, and which he must
sign and get off the very first thing in
the morning. Tho year that our pretty.
young girl came TO work for Old Skinflint
his family decided to summer in CALI
fornia. And at the end OF the month
he found himself very lonely indeed
Now the girls name was Dulcie. and
she looked exactly as sweet and inef-
| fectual as her name indicated. She had
golden hair which actually did fall in
ringlets about a classic white brow not
at all marred by the fact that It was
distinctly low-brow. And her big. blue
eyes were as vacant as shallow pools
Her nose was little and pert. her mouth
soft and tender. and her chin and jaw
suggested babyish beauty rather than
strength.
One afternoon at Old skinflint, who
was lonely indeed, leaned across his desk
