day he picked this knife out of dump

ANOTHER MAIN STREET
BUILDING
H. H. Cochran and H. C.. Wilson
to Erect Garage Opposite
|. o. 0. f. Hall.

Definite plans for modern garage
building on Main street were complet
ed this morning by H. H. Cochran anc
H. C. Wilson. The building will cost
$4,000.
The site Of the structure will be
the two corner lots east of the Odd
Fellows hall, which have been pur-
chased from E. K. Hayes. The build
ing will be Of concrete, with cement
block front. 1t will have a depth of
120 feet and a frontage of so feet.
The arrangement of the interior is to
be of the most modern character, hav-
ing waiting rooms, office, display
room, oil room, and machine shop,
which will be equipped with the most
machinery. The building
will be as nearly fireproof as it is
possible to make it. The location for
that business is one of the best in the
city, Work will begin at once and
the building will be rushed to COM
pletion.

Indian Valley to Emmett.

Governor Alexander on Tuesday
signed the bill appropriating l million
dollars for building state roads, which
will include the road from Weiser to
New Meadows. 1t is asserted that "if
any money is left over branch road
will be built from Indian valley over
the divide to Emmett, to connect with
the highway to Boise" This is nice
little bit of sop thrown to the Indian
Valley fellows to get them to vote for
the bonds. Considering the fact that
that state highway commission spent
somewhere near 100000 for "over-
head expenses" during the last two
years, when they built no roads, there
is mighty little hope that there will
be any surplus left for the Indian
road when the Weiser-
New Meadows road is completed.

Defeat By Meridian Puts High School
Out of Championship Race.

Emmett's hopes for the basketball
championship went glimmering last
night when Meridian took the game
in the tournament at Caldwell. Score
% to 21 Considering the record made
by the Meridian quintet this season,
our boys have nothing to be ashamed
of, especially when the close score
is taken in account. Boise was also
eliminated by Shelley by score of AZ
to 36. Emmett was represented by
Whitsell, Clark, Burkhard, Scott,
Crabtree and Rose. Coach Harrell ac-
.companied the team.
On Tuesday night Emmett defeat
ed the Vale team by score of 32 to
19.
Emmett's chance to take part in.the
tournament came by reason of the
drubbing given Payette High Friday
evening in the closing game of the in
ter-scholastic schedule. The score was
35 to 33.

Contract for Holverson Building.

The contract for the basement and
cement work on E. L. Holverson's two
story store building was on Monday
awarded to Mike Gilbride and work
will start at once. The old frame
building was moved yesterday by Al
Whites tractor and will be converted
into a residence. This building is one
of the landmarks of the city. 1t was
built about 35 years ago in the old
town west of the canal and was oc-
cupied by Hawley & Davis saloon.
When the Idaho Northern came to
town it was on the right of way. A
lot was purchased on Main street in
the new town and traded for the old
lot and the building was moved to it.
Then H. C. Riggs moved his butcher
shop into it. Since then it has had
various owners and tenants, the last
tenant being R. G. Newcomer, jeweler.
The property was purchased last fall
from D. NJ John by E. L. Holverson.
