CAPTIVE EAGLE MAKES
ESCAPE
Cage Blown Over by Wind
Captured Again After
Fierce Struggle

Henry GouPs big gray eagle gained
his liberty during the wind storm
Tuesday afternoon, when the wind
blew over the cage in which the bird
was confined.
Upon gaining freedom the eagle
made several circles in the air around
the depot and then pounced upon
young colt with the evident object of
carrying it off to its lair in the wilds
of the big butte. The agonizing cries
of the colts mother attracted Mr..
GouPs attention and for the first time
he learned of the escape of the eagle.
Ray Coon, Frank Berry and George
Parks responded to his calls for help
and Mr.. Coon managed to grab hold
of the colts tail as it was being
carried away, and he was being car
ried along also. George Parks rushed
to the rescue and grabbed Coon by the
legs, and Parks began to go up. Then
Frank Berry tackled his $50 pounds of
avoirdupois onto Parks legs and the
eagle had to quit.
Then ensued terrific struggle. The
eagle refused to let go of her prey
and fought desperately. In the mean
time Goul had had gone to the butcher
shop for a choice beef steak and IN
his persuasive manner succeeded in
inducing the ferocious bird to desist
from her evil designs and return to her
cage, where she is now dutifully lay
ing an egg a day and indications are
that she will beat the record of the
Leghorn hen which holds the egg re-
cord of the world.

LEG BROKEN
BY DIRT SLIDE
Rollin Dayton Has Narrow Escape on
Canyon Canal

Rollin Dayton, son of Mr.. and Mrs.
Willis Dayton of the mesa, suffered
the fracture of leg by a dirt slide
at the Plowman cut and narrowly es-
capped serious injuries by being run
over by the dump cars.
The accident occurred Saturday
night about o'clock. Rollin was
working on the second shift and was
employed as brakeman on the dump
cars. He had just signaled string of
loaded cars to come ahead, when the
bank of the cut at the foot of which
he was standing caved in and he was
thrown by the slide onto the track The
trainmen did not see him, and only by
the most strenuous effort was he able
to extricate himself from the debris
just in time to avoid being crushed
beneath the train. His left leg was
broken between the knee and ankle,
and he was at once brought to town
and placed in Mrs. Hewittson's hos
pital for treatment.

Shade Fields a Free Man

Shade Fields is a free man. Satur-
day morning, in the district court,
Judge Davis granted the motion or
Prosecutor Rhodes of Boise county
and Frawley & Koelsch, associate
counsel for the prosecution, that the
charge of murder against Fields be
dismissed on account of insuficiency
of the evidence. AS soon as the order
could be executed Fields was released
from the Ada county Jail. Fields
killed Edward and Wayman Ward in
Long valley September 13, 1915. The
Ward brothers had assaulted W. H.
Palmer, sheepherder, employed by
the same men Fields served in the
capacity of camp tender. JustincaUlon
of Fields act was urged on the ground
that the life of his associate was in
danger by reason of the assault of
the Wards. Fields trail for the shoot
ing of Edward Ward was held at Cald-
well on a change of venue from Boise
county, Judge Davis presiding. After
one of the hardest fought legal battles
in the history of local criminal courts
Fields was acquitted. He had been
held in the Ada county Jail since that
time for trial on the charge of killing
Wayman Ward.

BRIGHTEN UP THE TOWN
THURSDAY
April 13 Designated as "Clean-
Up" Day in Emmett by Mayor
and Council

Next week has been proclaimed as
cleanup week" by the governor and
the state department of sanitation,
and the mayor and city council have
designated next Thursday as "clean-
up day" for Emmett, when it
is hoped all citizens will enter into
the spirit of the movement so that
| Emmett may start the summer season
spick and span and in the best posi-
Bile sanitary condition.
Time was when such efforts were
scoffed at, but with experience has
come the knowledge that it is not
only beneficial but actually necessary.
Nothing is more conducive to the
propagation of disease germs than
the over-winter collection of debris
with which all in common are burden
ed. 1t is next to impossible for the
city department to make personal
inspection of the entire city, and
naturally it must depend to great
degree on the cleanliness and care Of
the citizens to make this city one
of the cleanest little cities in the
country.
Nor should the movement be con-
fined to the city. 1t should be observ-
ed in every home in the valley. The
cleanup campaign has become nation
wide. The following code of rules has
been adopted by many communities
and is worthy of being observed here:
First-Do not allow rubbish to ac-
cumulate.
Second-Do not throw anything on
sidewalks or streets.
Third-Do not let piles of ashes or
trash remain in back yards.
Fourth-Do not mark or deface
sidewalks.
Five-Keep the garbage can cover
ed and destroy breeding places of
flies and mosquitoes.
Six-Plant grass and flower seeds
make a garden and encourage the
love of nature, sunshine and fresh
air.
Seven-Apply paint to fences, sheds
and buildings.
Eight-Brighten up yourself. Brigh-
ten up your home and spread the
brighten up spirit among your neigh
bors.-
Nine-Brighten up your business,
brighten up your town and promote
it's social, industry and commercial
progress.
Ten-Let Brighten Up" be your
slogan.

Found His Brother.

Bud Bigelow, who has spent the
past year or more in Los Angeles
Calf, reports a curious incident in a
letter to one of his Emmett friends
Mr.. Bigelow accidentally discovered
a half brother whom he had not seen
for II years few weeks ago. The
two men had lived in the same block
for at least year without making
each others acquaintance and learn
ing that they were related That
is one of the penalties of living in a
big city, where one has no neighbors.

BETTER ROAD And MAIL
CONDITIONS
Commercial Club Consider Both
QuestiOns-Captain Davis
Makes Talk

Discussion of better roads and i'm
proved mail facilities, forceful talk
by Captain E. G. Davis, candidate
for governor, and a luncheon ard
smoker were the outstanding features
of the meeting of the Commercial
club Tuesday evening.
! The road question came up by the
reading of letter from Ray Alters
of Sweet, asking for the cooperation
of Emmett in opening up to travel
/ the road between the two towns on
the north side of the river. This
brought up the Picket Corral road
I and before the discussion ended the
need of a permanent committee on
roads became apparent. Accordingly,
a committee consisting of G. B. Mains,
R. N. Cummings and VIM. Findley
was appointed. Frank Berry and
Dave Nichols were appointed as a
committee on the Sweet road.
Complaint was made of the mail
service between Emmett and main line
connections and many suggestions
were offered. Better rural service al
so came into the discussion with the
object of serving the people in the
Falk and Letha sections with daily
mail service by carrier from Emmett.
A committee composed of Ed Skinner,
E. C. Rundstrom and Ed Waring was
placed in charge of this matter.
Seven new members were added.
They are: Douglas Knox, Sr., H. H.
Prestel, T. E. Hance, w. C. Keyes, C.
A. Quinn, H. Goul, J. R. Hunter and
H. w. Titus.
Captain E. G. Davis, candidate for
the gubernatorial nomination, was
present as a guest and gave short
but forceful talk on state matters. He
carefully avoided mention of partisan
politics. He was listened to with deep
interest as he told of abuses that have
existed in Idaho's state government
and the cost which such practices are
to the taxpayers.
An appetizing lunch was served af-
ter the meeting adjourned and all en-
joyed pleasant social hour.

Trout Fishing

The state game warden has had
many inquiries recently regarding
fishing during the month of April.
There seems to be a misunderstand-
ing on the part of many sportsmen, it
is said, concerning the streams that
are closed to anglers during this
month. 1t is legal to fish in the
lakes and navigable streams only, be-
tween now and May 1. A navigable
stream is one where logs may be float
ed in RATS for commercial purposes.
The trout are spawning in the smaller
streams during the month and are
protected during that time by state
law.

Automobile Turns Over

A party of Eagle residents were
fortunate in escaping serious injuries
Sunday evening, when the automobile
in which they were riding plunged
from the Big Gulch road between
Emmett and Eagle and turned turtle.
There were five adults and an infant
in the party, composed of Mr.. and
Mrs. Richard Cotton, Mr.. and Mrs.
Harry Bartlett and baby and Mrs.
Maggie Smith. Mrs. Smith received a
cash across the forehead, being the
only member of the party sustaining
injury worse than bruises.

LECTURE COURSE
Last Number to be Given Monday OF
Next Week

The closing number of the Emmett
Entertainment Course will be given
by Totten, the magician, assisted by
his daughter, at the Methodist church
next Monday evening, April 10. He
is an artist of dexterity and skill and
those who attend will be highly en-
tertained.
Since the gifted Marc laid down the
magician's wand forever live com
petition for the place of pre-eminence
which he occupied among lyceum ma
gicians has been waged. In the minds
of critics, however, that competition
has practically been closed, and James
Morrison Totten has come to be fairly
entitled to the honors laid down by
Marc. OF those artists who are today
appearing in the field of magic ana
illusions in the lyceum and chau-
tauqua, none WELD the maglclan's
wand with more delicacy and charm
than does Totten. He is an artist, IN
every scuce of the word, and long ex-
perience has made him master hand
at capturing and keeping the interest
and attention of his audience. He is
