Adding much to the attractiveness
of Peggy ;" the 1nce1Triangle play,
is the excellent supporting cast ac-
corded to Billie Burke. William H.
Thompson. who will be remembered
for his striking characterization IN
'sThe Miracle Man." is the dour old
Scotch uncle Thompson brings out
artistically the hard, narrow spirit
of the man, in the beginning, and
the gradual softening of his nature
under the influence of the girl.
Thomas H. Ince, Director-General of
the Inee studio, played with Thomp-
son seven years ago in "The Father
and Son."
William Desmond is cast as the
young Scotch minister who wins Peg
gy's heart. At first he is shocked by
her masculine garb and hoyish
pranks, but capitulates to her low
able qualities. Desmond is Irish by
birth and was brought to this country
in infancy. he has played IN nnany
notable productions under the Be
lasco, Frohman and Shubert manage
ments. He played the leading role in
''The Bird of Paradise"for two years

Coward. has the juvenile role in
Peggy"

tional reputation as a comic opera
star, appears as the chaperon of the
motherless heiress.

The biggest Fourth of July cele-
bration in the history of Payette is
now assured. The finance COMMITTEES
has met with the kind of success
that is required for the proper
staging of such an event as it is
proposed to make of the exercises
that viii be held this year in OBJ
serving the grand old Natal Day.
Already the people are beginning
to plan with the various committees
for the putting on of many new
features that have not been seen be-
fore. The parade promises to be the
biggest and best that Payette has
ever turned out, with everything else
connected with the celebration on a
large scale.
The decorations will be the most
elaborate, the music the best, the
crowd the largest, the speaking and
singing the most patriotic and the
amusements the most enjoyable.
Make up your mind now that you are
going to celebrate in Payette. Read
the posters and the advertisements
in the newspapers.

.CHAUTAUQUA TALK
THAT COUNTS

Judge r. M. Wanamaker of the
Supreme Court of Ohio, who will
speak at the chautauqua in Payette,
brings a message of even greater in
dividua1 interest and importance than
that of preparedness-a constructive
treatment of the vital problems of
our federal, state, district and local
courts. No man in America today is
so ably equipped, by reason of actual
participance, and demonstration of
contended principles, to point out
the glaring weaknesses of our sys-
TEN of Jurisprudence, and at the
same time offer workable remed-
ial solution to the problems.
'By their fruits ye shall know
them" Judge Wanamaker comes to
us, not as a radical or vehement dill
tante, but with personal record
in the courts of the great state OF
Ohio, which vindicates his contention
that it is not only right but possible,
to exercise the same thoroughness
and dispatch in the official conduct
of court procedure, that is employ
ed in the various professions, insti-
tutions and industries of the coun-
try. AS District Attorney, as Judge
of the Court of Common pleas, as
Judge of the Supreme Court of his
State, Judge Wanamaker struck a
new note in the annals of jurisprud-
ence in this country. He proved not
only to the people of Ohio, but to-
many outside thousands who We're
eager to familiarize themselves upon
the subject, that after all, the dis
pensation of equal justice guaranteed
to every one under the law, is a
thing of simple and direct method.
Judge Wanamaker, has the uncon-
scious poise, dignity and presence of
the man who knows-who takes
stock only in results He is very
pleasing speaker, fluent, carefully
avoiding the obscure phrases of legal
parlance, using only the language
familiar to all. He appeals to all
classes Of every degree and stand
ing, because what he has to say is
meant for everyone. 1t is this quail
ty, as much as anything else, that
has endeared him to the many
thousands who have heard him in
the east. To hear Judge Wanamaker,
is to be instructed and entertained
by one of the foremost constructive
men of our time.

MOTHER uRENN PASSES AWAY.

Mrs. Harriet Urenn, aged 81
years, died at the home of her
son and daughter, Mr.. William Urenn
and Mrs. NJ. E. Hulley in this city
at 8 o'clock Monday morning, after
a. lingering illness covering the past
eight months. The funeral took place
Wednesday afternoon from st. James
Episcopal church, Rev. Thomas Ash
worth officiating.
Mrs. Urenn was born in England,
coming to this country with Will
liam Urenn, her husband, more than
60 years ago. They first settled In
Wisconsin. She joined her husband
who went to California in 1849, three
years later, and they resided there
and in Nevada, where Mr., Urenn
died in 1870, since which time she
had made her home with her son
and daughter, with whom she came
to Payette some ten years ago.
Mrs. Urenn was a Christian woman
of noble character who was greatly
beloved and will be sadly missed
by those who were near to her by
the ties of kinship and in fact by all
who had come to know her well.

pAYErTE WOMAN HoNoREo.

Word has been received that Mrs.
Chas. F. Muller of Payette was made
a Director of the General Federation
of Women's Clubs which recently
closed in New York This is dis
tinetion of which this splendid wo-
man is worthy and an honor that
can only come to few and that
through efficiency. With such a fav-
or conferred on one of our Idaho
ladies, it not only brings the Portia
club in greater prominence, but 1t
places Payette right on the map so
to speak and is something of which
the people of this city may justly
feel proud. We congratulate the Pay
cite Portia club on this honor that
has come to one of its most worthy
members.

MRS. CRANDELL
STRUCK BY AUTO

" Mrs. M. E. Crandell was knocked
down by an automobile at the Pay
cite National Bank corner about
O'Clock Saturday night, resulting in
injuries that are reported to be more
or less serious.
Mrs. Crandell had just started to

whep, an automobile occupied by
four ladies' slowly turned the corner.
The fender of the car struck her
and knocked her down, dragging her
about Is feet. When picked up by
parties who witnessed the accident,
Mrs. CrandeIl was believed to be
seriously hurt, but was able to
walk to her home three blocks away
where her injuries were found to
consist of a badly bruised leg and
arm, while her left wrist which had
previously been broken, was badly
swollen.
The names of the ladies who were
riding in the car were not learned.
They are supposed to reside in On
tario. The car bore an Oregon license
No 2504S. The ladies appeared to be
deeply concerned over the unfortu-
nate accident and rendered assist
ance by offering to take Mrs. Gran
dell to her home in their car and
upon her declining to ride one of the
party walked with her part of the
way.
DR.. Woodward was called the fol-
lowing morning to see Mrs. Crandell,
who is said to be suffering consid-
cradle pain yet as result OF her
injuries.
Mr.. Crandell, who runs a barber
ehop in the Bennett block, states
that he has not been able thus far
to learn the name of the owner or
driver of the car, but that he has
taken the necessary steps to do so.

HIGH WATER
IS PREDICTED

! Mr.. John Conyers of this city
who owns 400-acre ranch in Long
Valley near Cascade station, is q
man who would neysI
be accused of being an alarmist,
but after spending several weeks in
the Long Valley country and seeing
the piles of snow yet remaining in
the mountains, he makes the pre-
diction that the lower Payette river
country is going to experience such
high water this season as has not
been seen for many years. Mr.. Con
yers has been familiar with condi-
tions in the Long Valley country
for more than % YEARS., he knows
the mountains and streams. He has
given no small attention from year
to year to the snow fall and results
that followed He says the little
freshets caused by the few warm
days thus far have made small head
way towards carrying off the unusu-
ally heavy SHOWS of the past winter
and that they will have to come
with a rush later on when the days
begin to warm up in earnest.
Mr.. Conyers says the mail carrier
from Yellow Pine reports 80 feet of
snow on the Cabin Creek summit
and from 8 to II feet on the Big
Creek summit Mr.. Conyers says that
in spite of the backward season the
people of the Long Valley country
are prosperous and that business
appears to be good in the little
towns, owing to the fact that since
the building of the railroad through
that section many of the farmers
have gone into the dairy business,
from which they are reaping rich
results.

VALUABLE HORSES KILLED.
ON SHORT LINE TRACK

Two horses were killed by a
westbound train on the O. S. L..
early Tuesday morning short dis
tance north of the Payette river
railroad bridge 1t is not known
definitely whether the animals were
struck by passenger train II, or by
q through freight Both of the ami
mails We're thrown at least 100 feet
down the embankment into the pond
of water on the west side of the
track, where they were later dis
covered.
The horses were both valuable
work animals and belonged to A. E.
Brannock and j. M. Turner. Mr..
Brannock had been working Mr.
Turner's horse with his own and
kept them in a small pasture near
the railroad track. He does not know
how they got out of the enclosure,
but found the gate down ON Tuesday
morning. The loss of the animals
will be felt as a real misfortune for
both of the owners as they de-
pended upon teaming as an occupa-
ton.
