Subject

Boise Statesman: Fourth of July is
to be celebrated twice at the state
house this year. State Treasurer
Eagleson has found a section of the
revised codes which provides that
when a legal holiday falls on Sunday
the day following should be observed
as the holiday and state offices closed
on that day.
On the other hand, the governor has
issued a proclamation designating Sat
urday to be observed. 1--WE have no
alternative but to obey the governors
proclamation, and there will there
fore be two holidays" said Mr.. Eagle
son. "It will mean the closing of state
offices three days in succession, but
| hardly see how it can be avoided"
The mayor issued proclamation
naming Monday as the day to be cele-
brated. Most of the local merchants
have agreed to close their stores on
that day and it will be generally OBJ
served in the city.

LIGHTNING DESTROYS BARN.
Grundy County Farmer Suffers Hsav,
Loss During Storm.

Loss During Storm.
Grundy Center, May 2s.-Fire, caused
by lightning. destroyed the fne barn
on the c. F. Showalter farm two and
half miles southeast of town last
Tuesday morning. Two horses, a colt.
two calves. about ten tons Of hays. 100
bushels Of oats, several sets Of har-
ness many small tools, aud a guam
tity OF smoked meat which was roomed
OF by itself, also went up in the FIRE.
The farm is occupied by J. G. Showal-
ter, son Of the owner.
Mr.. Showalter, in attempting to get
colt out Of the barn, burned his hands
quite severely, and the fire became so
fierce by this time that further at
tempts to save anything were useless.
The loss on the barn will be about
81, 500, with 1850 insurance. The loss
on grain and the other stuff will be
practically total as J. G. Showalter
carried only small amount of insur-
ance on the personal property which
he owned. The lower walls of the barn
for several feet up are built Of cement,
and it may be that considerable por-
ton Of this can be saved. thus bring
ing the amount Of the loss down a
little.

TO VISIT MOTHER
FOR FIRST TIME IN
NINE YEARS

Waterloo, May 2s.-John Norman,

week after a separation Of hfty-one
years.
In the early sixties the Norman
family lived in Dubuque. there were

except one and all their residences
widely scattered. Tom enlisted in the
regular army in 1854 and was sent to
South Dakota to fight tho Indians.
After his military service he wandered
over the west. He mined thru the
Rockies and in Mexico.
His experiences were highly ex-
citing. At ono time Tom Norman and
four others were set upon by Villa
and his band. Their horses and pro-
visions were confiscated except one
burro and little food. Villa ordered
them to return to the United States
and they did.
For time Norman was with q
government surveying gang in Yell
lowstone park. He claims to have
climbed nearly every peak of promi-
nence that has felt the foot Of man.
AS the brothers met quite by chance,
Thomas first remark was about his
mother. He thought her dead. John
assured him that their mother was
alive and well. And right then Tom
laid plan to travel at once to Crown
Point, Ind, where Mrs. NJ. C. Norman.
his mother. resides She IL 20 years
old and has not seen her wandering
boy for forty-nine years.
John Norman II averse to writing.
He says for nearly forty years he
made his living with pencil and tele-
graph key on the Illinois Central. and
and the sight Of a pen makes him sick.
He will soon be 70 years old and then
will retire on pension after half CEN
fury Of service with his company.
