The HeinIy Glass factory back Of
tho KisneF Lumber Company, has
four boys at work making glass eggs.
About 4.5OO eggs a day are turned out
at present. These eggs are sold 10
various CONCERNS over the United
States. Ten cent stores use a great
many Of them. Various uses for them
arc found. They are used for nest
eggs mostly, though throughout small
towns and villages they are to be
found IN homes on nantes Or in bas-
kets on tables-NeTvi;sS as ornaments.
Il q very interesting pastime to watch
the boys making these eggs. They
gather q small portion OF hot glass
on the end Of rod and swing this
rod about, all the time blowing
fhOFugh the rod much as a child
blows through pioe to get a bubble
q proper size and proportion. Nearly
every muscle In the body como into
play and II doesn't take very long to
discover that even in the making Of
small opaque glass egg, much
skin Is necessary.

The people of Power county Who
had the pleasure of hearing Sergeant
Gibbons at the Chautauqua, have all
the time since been hungering for
more of the same kind of information
concerning the actual conditions on
the battle fields of France. Many have
said that they would go a long way
to hear Sergeant Gibbons repeat his
story.
This coming Friday night the people
will have an opportunity to hear an
other battle hero, one said TO be far
more interesting than the little Cana
dian sergeant to held his audience

sired to talk. The man who is COM

PICTURE STORY OF THE
SINKING OF THE LUSITANIA.

AT the Auditorium Wednesday ev-
ening, the setory of the sinking of
the Lusitania will be told in picture.
Winsor McCay has given to the
world through the medium of his pen
a wonderfully graphic and compelling
picture of the greatest sea tragedy of
all history, and the most momentous
disaster of recent times, the sinking
of the queen of the seas. the Lusi-
tania. The film, after introducing
Windsor McCay, the famous artist and
caricaturist, who was responsible for
this remarkable picture. gives some
idea of the tremendous amount of
work necessitated in the huge collec-
tion of drawings, and the large force
OF artists whose services we're EN-
ployed for months and months. Then
he introduces Augustus F. Beach, the
noted war correspondent, the first
American newspaper man to inter
view the survivors who landed on AL
bion's shore
Mr. McCay in his film has followed
the war correspondents report of the
manner in which the gigantic vessel
was twice torpedoed, the orderly con-
fusion of the launching of the life
boats, the desperate leap of those who
could not get in them from the up
permost decks, the gradual sinking by
the bows, and the final plunge of the
ship beneath the waters. With infinite
detail. and with a variety of angles
for which the pen picture method is
particularly suited. Windsor McCay
sketches in all of its agony the deatf
struggle of the huge Cunarder. ever
going so far as to depict the Hur
pirate and its fatal torpedoes in theii

actual pictures could be half so illu
minating as this pen picture Of the

TEN STACKS OF WHEAT
BURNED SATURDAY NIGHT.
Fire Was UnquestiOnably OF Incen-
diary 0rigin-LOss Partly Covered
by Insurance.

Saturday night about ten o'clock ten
stacks of wheat about a mile south
east of town were destroyed by fire.
They belonged to Chester Hall and
represented his summers work. They
were insured for the sum Of s12 per
acre. Mr. Hall estimates that they
contained about 1000 bushels of wheat
and that his loss viii be not far from
SO 000
There can be no question that the
fire was of incendiary origin When
the blaze was first discovered four
stacks were blazing. and had the ap-
pearance of starting at about the same
time. which would not have been the
case except that the fire was delib-

VIRGINIA ROOMING HOUSE
DESTROYED BY FIRE.
Early Sunday Morning Fire Destroys
Old Landmark-PrOperty Owned
by James Hearne-ROOmer Get
Out None Too Soon.

Fire at 4:3O Sunday morning de-
stroyed the Virginia rooming house,
one of the old landmarks of the town,
located on the street facing the
railroad. The property was owned by
James Hearne, who was out of town
when the fire occurred. In his alb
sence Mrs. William Chipp was looking
after the house.
The building and contents were a
complete loss. The fire was discov-
cred about 4:30 by one of the rail-
road bridge guards, and by the time
the roomers were awakened and peo-
pie began to assemble, it was too late
to save anything. The roomers saved
only their clothing, and some of them
not all of that. One of the roOmers
had to resort to a rope fire escape to
get out Mrs Chipp lost everything
she had in the building, including an
insurance policy of her son Lee, which
she had received but a few days ago.
William Kellogg, who occupied one
of the rooms on the upper floor, was
one of the first to leave the building.
He saved practically all his belong
ings, being particularly fortunate in
this respect.
The origin of the fire is not known.
About midnight a heavy wind arose
and Mrs. Chipp made the rounds of
the house to see that everything was
all right. A little later one of the
roomers was up after a pitcher of
water, and everything was all right
then. The wind quieted down and all
apprehensions were allayed and Mrs.
Chipp retired. A roomer in one of the
upper rooms was heard moving about
as late as o'clock.
The firemen were slow in arriving,
due to the earliness of the hour and
the fact that they had to be called
from their homes by phoine, and by
the time of their arrival the only thing
that could be done was to save ad-
joining property. Fortunately there
was no wind at the time. This enabled
the firemen to save the Kohlhepp
building, which stood about two feet
away from the burning structure.
few months ago the Iowa rooming
house, on the other side of the Kohl.
hepp building, was taken by fire.
The building and furniture were in
sured for about $4,000. The Wones
Mortgage Loan Corporation wrote
the policy on the furniture.
Mr. Hearne was located in the up
per Snake river country yesterday
and informed of his loss. He reques
ted the adjusters to proceed and ad
just the loss as he could not come
home Immediately.

ROUNDUP AT BLACKFOOT.
NeighbOring City is Preparing for a
Great Time the Second Week of
October.

Dow Williams the irrepressible is
staging a roundup at BlackfSot for
four days, October to II. inclusive
Mr.. Williams organized the War Bon
net round up at Idaho Falls. which
has been a pronounced success for the
past several years. Under his man
agement the people can be assured
that they will get just as much at
Blackfoot as they can by going fur
ther away-to Pendleton or Cheyenne
for instance. The best attractions will
be gathered from Pendleton and Chey-
enne, and in addition there will be
lot of native talent and local attrac-
tions that will be about as good in
every way. Other places, from Mon
tana to Arizona and New Mexico will
be drawn upon for attractions, and
things will be lively from the turn
loose.
