Prospects for the successful con-

last week Incidently, Mr.. Mcmillan
says that the prospects of the camp
cannot be overestimated; that $6,000,-
900 worth of ore has been exposed in
the Long Hike since fall; that 81 men
are working in the Lonk Hike prop

are now being shipped by parcel post
to the camp and that at least ten
properties have passed the prospect

given reception in the town l4sil
The next morning an executive ses-
sion was held. Commissioner Gross
said that his company had a small as
sessed valuation and had but $4,000
with which to repair 1900 miles of
road, so that they could not spare the

that Governor Alexander had pledged
that if Owyhee would spend the re-

convicts to work roads to an equal
amount elsewhere in the county A
committee Of five consisting of State
Highway Engineer Booth, County
Clerk j. st. Clair and County Commits
sioner Cress of Owyhee county. and
Commissioner T. e. Moore and Secre-
tary Mcmillan of Twin Falls county
were appointed to wait on the COVER

AT this time the Elko commissioners
were unwilling to pledge more than
the $4,000 of the $4,000 needed. The
Twin Falls county men refused to
agree to spend more money fixing Ne
vada roads when the increased assess
ed valuation resulting from the build
ing of the camp through improved
transportation would go to Nevada
The Jarbidge people took the same
view and later the Elko men said
that they would recommend the build

through their county. If the rest OF

the same view, the committee named

Rock Creek RanCher Probably
Fatally Hurt
SEVERAL OTHERS ARE BADLY
INJURED IN SMASHUP.
Strike Bank While Trying to Pass
Another Car and the Machine Turn
ed Turtle.

Two men dangerously injured and
three others more or less severely
hurt, are the results of the turning
turtle of an auto on the Kimberly road
late Sunday afternoon. The men who
are seriously injured are Mel Crock
EFT, who may die, and Roy Mercer, who
is now on the road to recovery. The
less seriously injured are Heber Snow,
Bob Blair of this city, and young man
named Berry from Hansen.
The four last named made up a par
ty that rode in a truck to Kimberly to
the ball game Sunday afternoon. At
the end of the game, the young men
in some way missed the truck on
which they went to the game and got
into the Crockett auto to ride home.
While trying to pass another auto on
the road two miles this side of Kim
berly, they struck a bank about IS
inches, which threw the car backward
and overturned it. Crockett and Mer-
Ger were rendered unconscious and
the others badly bruised.
Up to the time of going to press
Crockett has shown no signs of re-
turning consciousness and it is fear
ed that he will not recover. The exact
extent of his injuries is unknow, as
the skull does not seem to have been
fractured as a result of the wound on
the head, which cut the scalp 1t is
thought that he may be suffering from
concussion of the brain. He is q
rancher living at Rock creek and is
unmarried.
Mercer is recovering rapidly and
was taken from the hospital to his
home today. At the time of going to
press he was reported as resting nice
ly. Like Crockett his superficial in
juries do not seem to be sufficient to
account for his condition, which, how
ever, at this time is not considered
dana erous. Snow sustained a dis
| located shoulder and Blair was more
or less bruised. Berry was only slight
/ ly injured.
Spectators say that the car turned
over at least twice and that it landed
upright, only considerably damaged
but facing Kimberly. The car was
driven into town after the accident

ONE COMPETITOR
LIFT FOR FIRST PLACE
Sh0shOne Showed Down the Line In
Sundays Game Battle Royal With
Rupert Sunday.

Sundays games in the Southern
Idaho league shook one of the perfect
score teams down to 500, leaving Twin
Falls and Rupert tied for first place,
a tie that will be played off on the
home grounds next Sunday afternoon.
Shoshone is the team that made the
slide, and the Twin Falls boys were
the ones that contributed to it. Sho-
shone was defeated on her home
grounds by score of IL to s.
The Burley team succeeded in ele-
waiting their score by defeating Kim
berly in a one-sided game, 13 to 2.
Rupert defeated Jerome, 6 to 3, re-
tanning her position in the front rank.
Next Sundays game at Twin Falls
promises to be one of the best of the
season, as both teams will strive hard
to retain their hold on first place.

daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. Fred Farrer
was drowned in the lateral near her
home mile and a half southeast of
this city Sunday shortly before noon
and was found by Evans Thompson

been playing outside and her parents
noticed that she was gone shortly af-
ter noon. They at once began
search but did not find her until her
body was discovered as described

SHE RESTORED HER
STRENGTH

II am a Home Missionary, was weak

to try vinol and the result is am

The reason Vinol was so successful
in building up Mrs. Johnson's health is
because it is constitutional remedy

enrich and revitalize the blood, the
