Senate bill No. 110--This is prob
ably the most far-reaching measure in
the educational field. 1t has an ex-
ceedingly interesting history for the
bill as passed is radically different
from the original, although aimed to
solve the same problem.
In it's first form the bill provided
two contrasting courses of study, one
for the rural population. seven months
a year for 10 years, the other for GER
ters of population nine months a year
for eight years. 1t also provided in all
districts, both common and independ-
ent, that the board should fix the
length of term, thus repeating the pres
ent minimum of nine months for large

The new bill makes no change in the
law as to school term, but calls for (1)
a course of fundamentals for minimum
term schools and (2) a commission tc
study the whole problem of the cur
riculum and work Of schools.

trict court Friday by Frank Martin,
who seeks to collect the sum for in
surance on the two-story residence at

that at the time he took out the policy
a vacancy clause was agreed upon and

Stomach of One Of Members
Of the Richards Family
Will Be Examined by the
State Chemist.
PRESIDENT OF STAKE
ATTENDED FUNERAL
Mrs. Richards Put UP One
Can Of "Lambs Quarter"
as an Experiment Caused
Victims to Become Hys-
terical Before They Be-
came Ill.

The stomach and digestive organs
of one of the victims of the Richards
family at Carey, poisoned at Carey
from eating canned greens, will ar
rive in Boise tonight for examination
by the state chemist to ascertain, If
possible, the exact poisoning which
caused the death of six persons.
This information was given today by
Heber @. Hale. president of the Boise
stake, who arrived home from Carey
Friday night after a strenuous trip.
Mr.. Hale officiated at the funeral of
four of the victims and two died after
he had left. The funeral, he states,
was attended by more than 900 people,
some who came from Utah points, and
are now showed in as the line is
blocked for several days at least, ac-
cording to information he received this
morning.
PUT UP ONE QUART.
There were many peculiar circum-
stances surrounding the poisoning
said Mr.. Hale. The greens, known
as lambs quarter" or sometimes
called pig weed" were put up in a
glass jar by Mrs. Richards. She was
putting up spinach and though she
would experiment with the other
greens and put up one quart. AS q
special delicacy to be eaten when most
of the family was at home, she re-
served the jar until there was quite
gathering and then opened it. The
entire quart was eaten and no i'll eff
fects we're felt for SO hours, when the
victims became dizzy, but paid nc
special attention to it. The next symp'
tom was that of nervous giddiness
bordering almost on Mysteries, the vic.
tins laughing and joking each othel
| for some time continuously. Late
they became serious and physician
was called, who treated them, and left
pronouncing them out of danger. Be
fore he had reached HALEY Mrs. Rich
j ards and one of the daughters wal
dead. A peculiar feature of the pois
oning was that all of the victims die
during the morning hours. The greens
were eaten on Thursday. The first twt
deaths were Saturday morning, tn
others on Sunday, Monday, Tuesda.
and Wednesday mornings.
FIVE OF FAMILY SURVIVE.
The surviving members of the Rich
ards family are three sons and twt
daughters, all married except oFe son
who is attending school. Daniel F
d Presnell, hired man, who was a vic
tim, is survived by his wife and II
children.
Snow conditions are bad in tn,
HALEY country, stated Mr.. Hale. Snow
ranges from 80 inches to three feet il
depth and is in drifts from four to 81!
feet. Hay is scarce and stock will suf
fer badly for want of feed.
The train on which Mr.. Hale cam
out was blocked for 33 hours. A relic
train sent out was also stalled ant
finally rotary cleared the track. Ever
then the passenger coach was derailet
and had to be left in the snow and tn
40 passengers crowded into the bag
gage car for the trip down on tn
HALEY branch.

GOVERNOR NAMES
new STATE BOARD
OF ACCOUNTANCY
J. A. Purtill Of Mountain
Home, Byron Defenbaugh
of Lewiston and F. s.
Davis of Sugar City, Ap-
pointed.

The new state board of accountancy
has been created by the governor under
authority conferred on him by law
passed by the last legislature. The
governor announced the following APP
pointments last night: ]. A. Purtill,
Mountain Home; Byron Defenbaugh,
Lewiston and F. s. Davis, Sugar City.
These three members of the board are
to meet and organize by the election
of a president and secretary, adopt
such rules as they deem necessary and
provide for the issuance of &C. p. A.
certificates to public accountants.
COMMISSIONER WELL KNOWN.
Mr. Purtill is well known over the
state. At one time he was connected
with the state tax commission as tax
expert and is a recognized accountancy
expert. Byron Defenbaugh is one of
the best known accountants of north
ern Idaho. He was for years assessor
of Bonner county and represented that
county in the senate of the Twelfth
legislature. He also was primary cam
didate on the Republican ticket for
state treasurer Mr.. Davis is a widely
known accountant Of the eastern part
of the state.
OBJECT OF NEW LAW.
| The object of the new law is to pro-
vide for the licensing of those engaged
in the profession of accountancy and
to give them standing which will
permit them to handle large auditing
contracts in this and other states
Many states in the union now have a
similar law. Certain qualifications are
demanded before an accountant car
proceed to audit the books of individ-
uals corporations or others thereby
assuring the parties employing sucf
an accountant that they will get value
received in the inspection that is made
of their books. 1t also shuts the doors
to class of accountants who are no
qualified to audit books and who have
been imposing. 1t is claimed, on many
concerns in the state. Accountants
generally are strongly in favor Of thu
new law.
The members of the accountanc!
board are only paid their travelling ant
other necessary expenses to and from
the state capital and while in session
as a board.
