ed for an automobile show, and prac-
tically every dealer of Caldwell Boise

The heavy advance demand for
space in the livestock department has
necessitated the enlargement of the
pens, sheds and corrals and the addi-
ton of a large tent which will house
the Shetland pony show.

rent during fair week will fill out the
blank published elsewhere in this is
sue, and mail to the secretary of the

The facts that drainage is greatly
needed in the north side of town and
that the drainage works can be con
structcd at this time cheaper than at
future date are responsible for the
widespread interest that is taken in
the proposed drainage works. At the
present time the Reclamation Service
has the equipment and engineers on
the ground and the cost Of the pro
Jcct is relatively cheaper for that rea-
son.
The proposed drain swings around
charge is the Boise river below the
Scbree irrigation ditch. The drain
age canal is about two miles long
with an average cut of nine feet. The
ditch will drain 700 acres of land of
which 800 acres are within and 400
acres without the Pioneer Irrigation
District.
The work to be done is the digging
of the drainage ditch, the erection of
seven bridges across the city streets
md the erection of a combination
structure under the Idaho Traction
railway, the Riverside canal and a
public road.
ne estimated cost OF the enterprise
is $4,000 of which it planned that
the Pioneer Irrigation District stand
two-thirds and the city of Caldwell
one-third.
Competent engineers state that I'M
der other circumstances and at diff
fcrcnt time the work would easily
cost double the present estimated
cost. The committee from the Com
mcrcial Club, members of the city
council and taxpayers generally are
taking steps looking to the organiza-
ton of an Improvement district for
the purpose of carry through this i'm
prOVement,

ARROWROCK DAM WILL
Be DEDICATED
OCTOBER 5

A meeting of the committee which
mas charge of the plans for the pro-
per celebration and dedication of the
completed Arrowrock dam met in
Caldwell Monday. October has been
selected as the date of the dedication.
On this date excursion trains will
run from Caldwell, Nampa and other
points to Arrowrock.
Program About Ready
d. r. Hubbard was selected to
serve as chairman at the dedication
ceremonies. Details of the program
are not quite ready for announcement
but should be completed in two or
three days by the committee designat-
ed tor the purpose, composed Of
Chairman Hubbard, T. ii. McDer-
mott and R. w. Childs. 1t is definite
ly announced that the speaking and
ceremonies will be held at 1890. at
which time the second excursion train
arrives.
Though it has been known for some
time that the Secretary of the Inter
ior Lane, cannot be present at the de-
dication, it is still hoped he may send
some western man here as his person
al representative. Invitations will
falso be sent to state and city officials
and other prominent people through
out this section of the country. 1t is
probable that request will be made
that each town on the project, and
possibly over a wider territory, have
an official representative at the exer-
cises.
Public's Last Chance.
All members of the committee Sc
lected by the Water Users GARD were
present at Mondays meeting. They
are L. ]. Magee, T. H. McDermott, A.
c. Johnson, w. E. Wood and G. H.
Kelm. The committee calls attention
to the fact that the dedication day
specials will afford the general public
about the last chance it will have of
visiting Arrowrock plant by train. A
second excursion may be run on Tues
day, but this is not a certainty.
One other thing is suggested by
the committee. This is the ADVISABLE
ty of each person going to carry their
own lunch. Because of the small
number of workmen now engaged at
Arrowrock, facilities for furnishing
meals to so large number of people
as are expected to be present at the
dedication ceremonies will not be
found there.

WILLOWY WOMAN is
NOW BILLOWY
Fashion DEGREES Delicate Bustles and
Thin Fluffy Dresses.

From the viewpoint of mere man,
who cannot fathom the reason or
sense at all, astounding facts were
brought out at the opening OF the an
nual show of the Fashion Art League
of America
Perhaps the most pcrpleNing fca-
turc is that yesterday woman, lovely
woman, was tall, slender willowy and
svelte, and today the same woman is
short and thick and billowy instead
of willowy. OF course the woman is
the same, but the modiStcs have turn
ed the trick so clcvcrly that the effect
is amazing.
Fashions of 1880 Raided.
1T is only a raid on the 1880 per
iod, said Madame Alla Ripley, former
presiding genius OF the Fashion Art
League and one of its most active
members She was asked ii the pres
cnt styles will not make woman look
old-fashioncd.
Fashion, She replied. lis a state
OF mind. Today word goes out from
the Fashion Art League that the bus
lie has returned. Not the old, heavy
hustle, but more delicate. artistic
conception. Rather a hustle effect, |

Coroner Investigates.

In order to investigate fully the
facts connected with the mans death,
Coroner Faris was summoned from
Caldwell. After consideration Of the
facts obtainable, Mr. Faris signed the
death certificate attributing the de-
mise to hemorrhage of the lungs 1t
was said the coroner returned to
Caldwell not fully convinced but that
it would be we'll to impancl jury, but
at late hour Wednesday no such
action had been taken.
Irwin Brothers showed by their
books that Dale had been paid off
and supposedly discharged on Sep
TENDER is Since that time he had
still followed the show and had. it
was said, been drinking heavily This
fact seemed well corroborated and is
supposed to have been a contributory
cause of his death.
