TAKES ICY PLUNGE
ON A HOODOO DAY
Jim LAWYERS Rugged Health is
Put to Hard Test on Disas-
trous Ride in Darnen

Monday, the 18th, was a hoodoo
day for Jim Lawler. He forgot all
about the hoodoo when he hitched up
his team and started for a drive
through Darnen where he experienced
sudden icy bath and spoiled his Sun
day pants. Jim is hardy lad from
the old sod. After driving back to
Morris with his shoes full of water he
has experienced no serious conse-
quences.
The same experience by most any
other man would have been case
for the doctor.
Accompanied by his brother Mr..
Lawler set out for Darnen and coming
to a point where small ravine skirts
the road one of the horses stepped off
the road and almost disappeared IN a
pool of icy water hidden beneath a
crust of snow. At the same time the
neck-yoke strap broke and Mr.. Lawler
left the cutter to free the animal.
In doing so he sank into the pool to
a depth over the waist line but he
staid right there to finish the job he
had gone to perform. Con Ring and
another man happened along at the
same time in bob sleigh and assisted
the LAWYERS in getting the animals
out of the water.

OLTHOFF RECEIVES
A,lOO FOR INJURY
District Court Jury Cuts Amount
Asked by Donnelly Man.
Slow Grind this Week

District court which has been in
session two weeks in this city with
Judge Stephen Flaherty on the bench,
has had a slow grind this week.
One case occupied most of the week.
Yesterday the case of John D. Muir
ray against the Great Northern rail-
way company to recover damages for
Injuries sustained at the Seventh
street crossing in Morris last Septem-
Der, was being conluded.
Since the last issue of the Tribune
the case of Henry Olthoff, of DON
nelly, against the Great Northern has
been tried. Olthoff was badly injured
at Donnelly last July while attempt
ing to remove a handcar from the
tracks. The fast mail came along
and threw the handcar against him.
He was awarded verdict of 50, 100.
An appeal will be taken.
Joe Hildreth and the two Yarger
boys charged with the theft of grain
from the Dushek farm, entered plea
of guilty and were each assessed a
fine of $3.50.
The case on today has been the
most interesting to court spectators
and perhaps the most important so
far. Murray is a stranger in Morris.
He has been here since last Septem-
Der when he lost his leg in the Great
Northern yards. His claim is that
he was hit by the train as he attempt
ed to cross the tracks. No bells,
whistle or other warnings were given
and he failed to take note of his dan
ger. The company sets up the claim
that he was in the yards attempting
to steal a ride and was injured. An
imposing array of legal talent repre-
sent both sides and many we'll known
local people have been on the witness
stand.
Court will be adjourned this week
in order to permit Judge Flaherty to
open a session at Ortonville next Mon
day. 1t is hoped to finish all litiga-
tions before Saturday night.

Widows CAPS,

Who do widows wear caps? This is
one of the things that every woman
does not know. It is not because caps
make them look pretty and interest
ing. 1t is because when the Romans
were in England they introduced the
custom of shaving the head as a
sign of mourning. Of course women
couldn't let themselves be seen with
bald heads, so they made themselves
caps.
So, though the hideous custom has
passed, the caps remain.-London An

the fray. He ridiculed the arguments
of the opponents of the extension and
asked where the farm trade which it
was supposed would be driven away
would go to. If this were sufficient to
drive away trade, how was it that
farmers came from the south side of
town to trade? All that was wanted
was to put the switch across with suf-
ficient cars to take care of the bust
ness. This would involve little switch
ing. The council had the right to in
sist on safeguards at the crossing as
condition of granting the franchise
The council of which Mr.. Brecken-
ridge was a member had granted a
franchise to the Perrine railroad to
cross Main street, where the traffic
was much greater than across the pro-
posed switch at Shoshone, at least 10
times as great. The danger at the in
tersection of Shoshone and Main
streets was many times as great; was
that an argument for insisting that
city have but one street? He said
that an investigation of the matter of
switching from the other side showed
that it would cost more than three
times as much, and that it would in
The Twin Falls times. [volume] (Twin Falls, Idaho) 1905-1916, 1916-03-07

volve twice as frequent a crossing OF
Shoshone street by the switch engine
as 1t would to allow the proposed
franchise. He again insisted that it
was a contest of property owners on
one side against property owners on
the other. If a man should propose to
put History office building opposite
the postoffice, ought permit be re-
fused on protest from down town folks
whose offices might be emptied? The
principle was the same. Sioux City
had grown to be a city of $4,000 be-
cause the men there were builders
and did not oppose the upbuilding of
the city.
Mr. Breckenridge said that his recol-
lection of the granting of the right to
cross Main street by the council of
which he was a member was that the
right had been granted for five years
to the Perrine railway Furthermore,
he urged that the electric line was
less dangerous and got into a good
natured exchange of compliments with
Mr. Booth on the subject
George f. Sprague closed for the
negative side, by saying that he was
