artists Of the highest rank. His company
this year. includes Miss Florence Austin,
acknowledged one of the finest violinists
In New York. She has appeared with all
the prominent orchestras and large con-
certs throughout the country. Her sue
cess at the Maine festival two years ago,
is well remembered. Miss Austin has .
charming personality, and distinguished
stage presence, and she literally sweeps
the audience OF their feet by her mag
netic playing.
The Criterion quartette OF male voices,
composed OF John Young, first tenor:
Horatio Rench, second tenor; George
Warren Reardon, baritone, and Donald
Chalmers, basso, is acknowledged by all
critics the best male quartette before the
American public to-day. Mr.. Chapman
was SO impressed with their superb work
in New York year ago, that he engaged
them for the Maine festival last fall. They
were one OF the sensations OF the festival,
receiving in some instances six recalls.
They will not only appear in quartette
work, but in solo work as we'll, as each
one is q finished soloist.
Mr.. Chapman will be at the piano as
accompanied. His accompaniments have
been one OF The delightful features of his
programs.

STOCK SHIPMENTS.

Friday last was a good day for
stock shipments and the yards of the
Oregon Short Line besides present
ing lively scene, also proved to be
altogether inadequate to the demands
of such an occasion. The following
were those who made shipments:
Ben Strohbehn, one carload Of steers
John Hill, two carloads of steers;
VIM. Bivens, one carload of steers;
L. H. Patton, one carload of steers,
and Jake Bowker, two carloads Of
hogs, all of which went to Portland
Ore. Messrs. Bivens and Patton
went along to look after the stock,
returning home yesterday.
At the rate stock shipme ants are
increasing, it is only a question Of
a short time when the Oregon Short
Line officials will have TO increase
the yard facilities, in order to keep
the reputation the company has long
enjoyed, as having been ever alive
to the best interests of every branch
of industry looking to the upbu lding
of the country upon which it must
depend for its own prosperity.

FINED FOR SHIPPING BIRDS.

Deputy State Game Warden w. H.
Thorp was In Payette last Friday,
having in charge Mr.. J. o. Tunnel,
proprietor of what is known as the
French Store, which he recently open
ed on Little Willow, who was charg-
ed with violating the game laws by
shipping protected birds out of the
state. 1t seems that on or about Dec.
2Sth, Mr.. Tunnel shipped some sage
hens, which he claims to have bought,
to a Portland, Ore, firm He plead
guilty to the charge, saying that
he had no intention of violating the
law when he shipped the birds, not
being aware at the time that he did
not have a perfect right to ship
game birds out of the state. He paid
a fine of SIS and costs and return
ed to his place of business with his
dearly purchased knowledge Of at
least one more thing that a man
can't safely do in Idaho without in
ringing upon the statutes.

Gently partially recovered from a
severe Illness and it was realized
that the shock was something to be
seriously considered. After receiving
surgical attention he appeared to be
resting easy, which lead to hopes
for his ultimate recovery. The worst
was not feared until a few minutes
before he breathed his last.
Mr.. McGlinchey was n years old.
He was pioneer of the early days,
having come to Idaho in 1852, when
he engaged in the mercantile busi-
ness at Idaho City. He afterwards
lived in Uinta county, Wyom ng,
where he served both as a member
of the legislature and as sheriff. He
was married to Mrs. May Noggle Al
yord in 1879 and became a res dent !
of Payette in. 1886. He had resided |
Tor 2S years at the present family |
home where he died, in this city.
The deceased is survived by his
widow, step-son, Mr.. D. D. AlYord
Of Twin Falls, Idaho, a daughter,
Mrs. w. B. Gilmore of this city and
q sister, Mrs. John Phalan, of

the Holy Family, on First Avenue
South, at one-thirty O'Clock Sunday,

Episcopal Church, at the family resi-
ience.
Mr.. McGlinchey was one of the
best known and most highly esteem
I'd citizens of this community, where
ne had spent the best years of a
busy life. In his intercourse with the
affairs of life it may be truthfully
said of him that he had only one
guide. his own conscience, which pre-

Divinity in whom he placed his trust.
