sued circular to owners of live
stock, officials of towns and employees

their attention to the fact that a
source of economic waste is permit
ing animals to roam at will on rail

waste.
The circular says:
DO you know that thousands OF
horses, mules, cattle, hogs and sheep
are killed yearly by railway trains IN
this country, and that this economic
waste approximating many millions OF
dollars can be reduced?

COLFAx SPEEDERS PAY
FINE; LOSE AUTO PARTS
Tires and Other Detachable Parts
Taken From Auto Owned by
Colfax Man-Driver Pays
Fine for Speeding

The city of Pullman is $40 better
off financially as the result of visit
Saturday night by six Colfax young
men who showed no respect for the
inanimate policemen stationed in the
center of each quadrangle on the
main streets but later ran amuck
real, live minion of the law and were
forced to tell their story before Police
Judge Henry. The seXtette was on it's
way from Moscow back to Colfax
after spending the evening in the Ida
no city, and the young men were in
such hurry to get through Pullman
that they ran the automobile over
two or three of the silent policemen
which tell the automobilists to turn
to the right. A little way out of Pull
man the automobile threw a wheel
and the young men walked back to
Pullman and went to a hotel. The
next morning they were awakened
early by Chief of Police Harter, who
charged the driver, Del Mitchell, with
speeding, and took the entire party
before Justice Henry. Mitchell was
fined $40 and costs, while the other
members of the party were released.
The party included, besides the driv-
err, Dan Kelly, John Baker, James
Cronan, G. i. Codd, and L. H. Craw-
ford.
After settling their account with
the city of Pullman the young men
went back to the machine, which
they had left standing by the road
just west of Pullman. and found that
everything detachable had been re-
moved during the night and carried
away. All the tires were stripped
from the car, the tools were all taken
and everything that looked like a
piece of money to the thieves was
taken. The loss will reach close to
$500. The automobile is owned by
DR.. w. A. Mitchell of Colfax and was
driven by his son. All efforts to To-
cate the stolen property have proved
of no avail, although a strict watch
is still being made by city and
county officials.

Swimming POOL
READY FOR WAD|NG
Youngsters Will BE Permitted to Use
Tank While Concrete is Setting"
Work Finished This Week

The concrete work and drainage
system for the new municipal swim
ming pool were completed this week
all that now remains to be done be-
ing the back filling to support the
concrete walls. While it will be i'm
possible to fill the tank completely
full before the walls have had suffi-
cient time to season. probably 10
days, enough water will be turned
into it tomorrow to permit the
youngsters to wade while the con-
crete is setting"
The completed tank, including the
wading section for children, will cost
approximately $1,000, according to
the figures presented by the COM
mittee from the chamber of COM
merce before that organization Tues
day, and most of this must be borne
by the chamber itself. The $1,000
does not include the purchase price
OF the lots, $500, which was paid bv
the city, so that the enterprise. as it
stands, represents an outlay of some
$4,000. The labor required to COM
plete the tank cost approximately
$500, while the bill for cement and
lumber totaled $685. Reinforcement
and piping cost 1925 and the engin-
GERS services will add another SIS to
the cost. The city council voted
$3.50 toward the cost of the pool.
aside from the purchase price of the
lots, leaving approximately 1880 to
be raised by the cham Der of com
merce, OF this amount close to 5000
has already been raised through the
carnival commissions and ball games.
and the lumber used for the wall
forms is estimated to be worth about
$3.50.
The construction of adequate
dressing rooms and shower baths will
probably be deferred until next
spring, and large tents will be erect
ed for use as dressing rooms this
year.
