the grand piano, around which the
Winsted National Orchestra was ar
ranged. This was first noticed at
about 10 o'clock and by IL the music
had deteriorated frightfully. Nearly
two hundred persons attended the
dance, and of these at least 1913 are
suspected by the chairman of the
dance committee of having trans
formed the home of melody into a
skunk cage. The whole atmosphere
of the dance was altered by the Incl
dent. According to witnesses, of
whom there are no end in Winsted,
three persons were seen standing near
the outer edge of the piano as early
as 9 o'clock. The fact occasioned no
comment at the time, for the Winsted
National Orchestra was doing splen-
didly with the dance numbers and the
more one heard of their efforts the
better they sounded. All things con-
sidered, however, it is now believed
that the skunk was placed where he
could do the most harm at about g
o'clock or thereabouts. 1t would ap-
pear that by some chance or other the
exact strings upon which he was rest
ing were not disturbed until about 20
o'clock. Then, however, the pianist
must have hit the fatal notes a terri
BILE belt. The skunk, alarmed, did rhe
first thing that occurred to him and
within a few moment persons in the
midst of dreamy waltz were seen to
run, skidding and semi-overcome,
from the auditorium.

AUTO OWNERS ORGANIZE
Will Work With State Association for
Better Roads

Following canvass by F. H. Tracy
field agent of the Southern Idaho
Motor Association, a meeting of local
automobile owners was held at Com
mercial Club rooms last Thursday
evening and a division of the state
association organized, with James
Kinzer, chairman; R. E. Rose, secre-
tary, and V. T. Craig, treasurer. The
state association plans to give to
southern, eastern and western Idaho
better roads and highways, to organ
ize district associations in all parts
of these sections of the state, and to
band the automobile owners together
to work to a common end by which
there will be less friction over the
roads of the state and more accom-
plished in improving them.
Other objects of the association are
to secure cheaper gasoline and oil for
its members and to mark the public
highways. The local association has
ordered ten signs. They will be To-
Gated as follows: At the foot of
Freezout hill, at J. L. Jensen corner,
at Main and Johns avenue, at Peter
Wright's west of town, at Vanderdas-
son schoolhouse, at Little Rock hall,
at electric sub-station east of town,
at the corner of the Shaw-Fest farm,
east of town, at Montour and at the
junction of the Dry Buck and Ola
roads.
The signs are made Of heavy metal,
mounted on one-inch gas pipe and
will be set in concrete. E. 0. Mech's
offer to make the concrete bases and
erect the signs at $1,50 each was ac-
cepted.

Remedy for "Road Hogs

Automobiles who suffer from the
activities of the "road hogs" are re-
commended to DR.. A. l.. Marks of
Spokane, who by close study of the
science of grenade throwing as prac-
ticed in European trench warfare,
thinks he has evolved sure offensive
weapon against the driver who will
not turn out to allow cars behind him
to pass. The scheme has not been
patented, and is said by its originator
to combine certain sporting pleasures
with utility. Ever since the early part
of the summer DR.. Marks has had
trouble with "road hogs" When he
came back from the San Francisco
exposition the doctor brought along a
quantity of vociferous torpedoes.
They were of the kind used by chill

when he took a recent trip to Mount
Spokane. An unusually obstinate
driver was a head of him on the road
to the mountain. He refused abso-
lutely to yield enough of the road for
the doctors car to pass. Then one
of the torpedoes landed between his
back wheels. DR.. Marks had, as he
swept by, fleeting view of the form
er "hog" dismounted at the side of the
road, examining every tire for the
blowout he was sure he heard. Tor

YOUNG MAN
DIES ON TRAIN
Legg Crushed in Threshing Machine
in Long Valley

Lee Morehead of Boise died on the
Lakeport train yesterday afternoon,
just before it reached Emmett, as a
result of an accident in Long Valley
and from lack of medical attention.
While working as feeder of a
threshing machine near VanWyck his
foot was caught and drawn into the
machine and his leg as far as the knee
ground to a pulp and his foot COM
pletely torn off. The accident oc-
Cured at $3.50 yesterday morning,
and after a hurried dressing of the
injured mans wound by DR.. Noggle
of VanWyck, he was placed on the
train to be taken to Boise. He bled to
death.
The young mans death is laid at
the door of the attending physician
by the trainmen and others familiar
with the circumstances, and he is
generally censured for refusing to ac-
company the injured man on the train.
The body was taken from the train
here and met by his mother and his
wife's mother, Mrs. Yates of Boise.
The body was prepared for burial at
the Bucknum undertaking parlors,
and was taken to Boise at o'clock
last night. Mr.. Morehead was %

IRRIGATION COMPANIES
HIT HARD
Farmers Coop. Assessed $780,
900 for Drainage-Noble
Company $4,000

At the regular monthly meeting Of
the directors of the Farmers Cooper
.ative Irrigation Company, held al
New Plymouth Saturday, c. A. Burr
and Frank Rickett, commissioners OF
the Falk Drainage district, appeared
and served notice upon the directors
that the drainage commissioners hao
assessed the ditch company $4,000 as
its proportion of the damages accru-
ing to the drainage district.
The Noble Ditch company has been
notified of an assessment of $4,000.
Telephone and power lines and rail-
roads will also be assessed for the
benefits resulting from the drainage
of that section. The amount of the
assessment has not yet been deter
mined.
The two assessments noted above
have been recommended by the COM
missioners to the court and hear
ing will be given in a few weeks. The
drainage engineers placed the assess
ment at 100000 for the Farmers
ditch, but the commissioners cut the
amount to $4,000. Only six miles of
the canal is in the district.
A committee, consisting of Walter
Burke of New Plymouth and c. H.
Sargent of Fruitland, directors of the
Farmers COOPERATIVE Company, was
appointed to retain legal talent, with
"a view of fighting the assessment if
if it shall be sustained by the district
court.
The drainage engineers have sunk
a number of wells in the district in
order to ascertain the effect of the
irrigation canals upon the flow of
seepage water in the lowlands. This
investigation will be concluded when
the irrigation season is over and the
findings will be submitted to the court
as evidence.
The bonds to be issued for the
drainage work will run 20years.

Snake in Prunes

One of the young ladies employed
as prune packer at the Denney & Co.
packing house found a snake about
six inches long among the prunes on
her table and actually picked it up
before she noticed what it was. Of
course she dropped it like hot cake
and as it ran across the floor created
great excitement among the other
packers, who gave a pretty accurate
imitation of the Russian retreat be-
fore the Teutons.
