The Twin Falls times. [volume] (Twin Falls, Idaho) 1905-1916, 1916-11-07

which represent millions of dollars
worth of fine milling ore. Right above
the town and in plain sight of every
one, as a cheerful reminder of the
good times to come, are the dumps
of one of the greatest mines in the
country, and the future may prove that
it is the greatest gold min of the
whole American continent. There are
aggregations and consultations that
may have made records in the past
that will be hard to beat, but we have
here a mine with one immense ore
chute that we are willing to back
against any other in the whole world
for length, width and average value;
this is one of the wonderful things of
Jarbidge.
Besides this there is the most won
derful climate one can imagine and
October is the most perfect month of
the whole year. The political parties
have taken advantage of this wealth
er to visit the camp. All parties have
been represented, and those candidates
who have been in here have been inn
Intensely pleased with the camp and the
prospective vote here, and most of the
speakers have been well received by
the people of the camp.
This glorious month was brought to
fitting finish last night by most
enjoyable entertainment at the COM
mercial club hall which was under the
auspices of the ladies of Jarbidge.
The halloween ball was the most
successful affair that has been held
in the hall for long time. Mrs. New
ton Crumley was the leading spirit
and was ably assisted by Mrs. Oscar
Walker, Mrs. H. Hacker, Miss Susie
Davis and Miss Mamie Kensinger.
There were about forty couples in
the grand march and a jolly good time
was enjoyed by all until the small
hours of the morning. 1t was ladies'
night, although not entirely a leap
year affair. The ladies were called
upon to foot the bills, according to
weight A platform scales was install
ed near the front of the hall and each
lady had to trust dainty feet on the
platform of these scales and trust her
pocketbook to the tender mercies of
Miss Kensinger, who was the official
/ weigher and treasurer. The few min
utes when l happened to be looking on
she was doing well, and | guess the
committee can call her a good col
lector
The hall was most tastefully deco
rated by the ladies of the committee,
with an abundance of yellow and
green streamers, yellow pumpkin
faces, green devils and iack-o'-lan-
terms. Several Elko and Twin Falls
people were present and everyone pro-
nounced it the usual Jarbidge-good-
time.
f. j. Ostrander and wife were pres
ent and with them were e. F. Driscoll
and d. c. Watson, all of Twin Falls
We were particularly pleased to ex-
tend the right hand of fellowship to
Mr.. and Mrs Ostrander, and welcome
them to the hall as it is the first time
they have been here since the new
floor was layed and the club received
the maple lumber for this floor from
our jolly little friend, Mr.. Ostrander
d. c. Watson is the secretary of the
Ostrander Lumber company of TwiI
Falls, and came into camp to arrange
for the twenty loads of lumber which
are on the road for the lumber yarC
