MANY PROsPECTORs
IN CENTRAL IDAHO
Money Now Looking for Mines In
stead Of Mines Looking For
Money.

An almost unprecedented condition
now prevails in the mining world
money Is looking for mines. The rule
has been that mines have always been
looking for money, but the reverse is
the case now, and owing to this con-
dition the vast mineral resources of
central Idaho just now offer an ex-
ceptional opportunity, as do the
other resources of this big, busy sect
ion, made SO on account of the high
markets for everything that is pro-
duced in the district.
Throughout this district are many
prospects on which work has been
done from year to year by hopeful
prospectors, who are now about to
come into their own, on account of
the fact that money is looking for an
opportunity to legitimately develop
mineral ground, extract ore there
from and reap a profit.
Not much thorough prospecting has
ever been done in Central Idaho, but
this year there is small army of
men in the hills already and new and
rich discoveries may be expected.
The Miner has sold one thousand
location notices in the past thirty
days and they are still calling for
them.
On account of the increased price
of base material and on account of
the large production of this district
mining men have late begun to take
notice of Central Idaho the Mackey
district-as field offering oppor-
tunity for safe and profitable invest
ment. -Mackay Miner

Boston Firm Completes Work In

Formal Relinquishment

After the. failure of one firm to.
make a success Of the Downey pro-
ject it was sold to the Kidder-Pea-
body company of Boston, who carried
out the work at an expenditure OF
$31, 900, according to agreement with
the settlers. The Downey community
has been settled quite rapidly under
the promising influence of this pro-
ject. The agreement between the
farmers and the construction company
was made year ago, and it was then
necessary from a legal standpoint,
that receivership be formed to Sc
cure the funds for the completion of
the work. The transaction has now
been made, and the Bannock settlers
own their irrigation system.

AS may be observed in the cut
this machine resembles dirigible
in the way of balance. 1t has a sort
of hood top plane and rudder planes.
The inventor claims it will easily ride
high, winds and storms, the greatest
dangers to the present day aero
planes. Evidently it will not require
such expert manipulation, because of
it's more independent poise. It will
not turn over since the bottom is
weighted and protected by the per-
pendicular planes. 1t is intended es-
pecially for long flights. Mr.. Wilkins
claims that the trip from San Fran
cisco to New York could be made in
this machine in three days without
coming to the earth If this inven-
ton is all it seems to be there will
be quite revolution in air flying as
practiced today.

JACK FROST MISSED SOME
FRUIT IN SOUTHERN IDAHO

According to The Twin Falls Times
the fruit inspectors find that about
half of the cherry crop was spared
by the recent cold snaps and some
peaches. The cherry tres were very
heavily loaded at Crystal Springs,
where these reports were made.
Therefor it is expected that the total
profits Of the two crops will be equal
to that Of last year. The Hagerman
valley fruit is said to have been en-
tirely lost. Some fruit growers near
Nampa were overlooked and their
trees are loaded with fruit, especial
ly the late apples and peaches.

BLAoKFooT PEOPLE MAY LOSE

The Pocatello Chronicle closed its
doors the first of the week with large
sums for wages and materials un-
paid, say the press reports. The
paper had just completed popular
lady contest and many people in Po-
catello and Blackfoot had sent in
their good money for su descriptions
because they wanted the paper or be-
cause they wanted to help the con-
testants. Now it appears that they
are not receiving their accustomed
daily from The Gate City and the
money they so recently turned over
to the girls in the contest has not
helped them either. It has merely
been passed on to other hands and
diffused in this great business world.

KILLS HIS SQUAW AND
THEN DIES BY OWN HAND

FORT HALL, May 19.-Running
amuck yesterday afternoon Frank
Perry, an Indian of the Fort Washa-
kie reservation, shot and killed his
wife, Mary Waterhouse, and fired a
bullet into the right arm of his sister
in-law, Dolly Waterhouse. Prior to
that, at about 10 o'clock in the morn
ing, according to reports received
here, Perry shot Earl Gibson at the
Jim Jackson camp, about two miles
southeast of the reservation home.
1t is not believed that Gibson's wound
which is in the breast, will prove fa-
tai. When captured, after a battle,
Perry turned a revolver upon him
self, shooting himself thru the fore
head.
1t is said that because of Perry's
troublesome traits his wife had re-
fused to live with him longer and at
her refusal yesterday he became en-
ragged. Immediately upon the shoot
ing of the wife the Indian police on
the reservation were notified and
undertook the capture of Perry. Arm
ed with a Winchester Perry defied
the police until they were REINFORCED
by inhabitants of the reservation.
When Perry was surrounded and he
saw that his capture was inevitable
he committed suicide.
Special Officer Tom LeSieur
answered the urgent call for help
when Perry started his murderous
attacks and at first attempted to cope
single handed with the desperate
man. Later LeSieur headed the pos
Sc that surrounded and brought Per-
ry to bay.-Pocatello Tribune.
