II sCOW-THREE ARRESTS

During the absence of Chief of Po-
lice Stillinger who is taking brief
vacation, Charles Summerfield, dep
uty, is in charge of the police depart
ment and is looking out for bootleg
gers. Last night he caught three al
legged violators Of the prohibition law
and has the names of several others
who are alleged to have been patrons
of the three arrested.
Mr.. Summerfield says that he has
been watching Humphreys barber
shop for some time and that the bar
bershop and Mr.. Thompson's office
use the same toilet. Last night when
the place was raided Mr.. Summer
field says that Humphrey escaped
through the toilet and Thompson's
office, but was captured this morning
after quite a chase. He had the liquor
on him when arrested, according to
the statement of Mr.. Summerfield,
who says this is about the third time
that Humphrey has been arrested on
liquor charges.
A barber giving his name as "Bud
Fisher, which is believed to be an as
sumed name, was arrested and re-
leased under a suspended sentence.

JUL|AETTA GETS
AN UNWELCOME RAIN
HEAVY DOWNPOUR STOPS HAIR
VEST WORK AND FRIGHTENS
FARMERS BADLY

JULIAETTA-Abou o'clock Sun
day night rain began falling here, con-
tinued steadily through the night, and
at noon today it is still coming down
without let up. The rain at this time
is unwelcome to most of the. farmers.
1t will suspend threshing4 operations for
several days; it will prove injurious
rather then beneficial to navy beans,
especially~the second planting on ground
infested with cut-worms, as it will keep
them green and the beans may not ma
ture before the killing frosts.
1t will possibly benefit some corn, late
potatoes and green beans that are being
grown for the local cannery 1t will
.retard the ripening of melons and to-
,matoes, but will put summer fallow
ground and even stubble fields in ex-
.cellent condition for fall blowing and
early seeding
Juliaetta seems to be unusually well
represented in candidates. for county
OIllCtS llllS ySdI.
John l.. Woody, who has been county
commissioner for this district for a
of years is out for the republi-
can nomination for sheriff.
E. w. Porter, who is president of the
Bank of Juliaetta, is an aspirant for
the nomination of state senator on the
republican ticket
Columbus Clark, of Fix ridge, who
served term in the state legislature, IS
out for county commissioner before the
republican primary, while Robert Hall,
also of Fix ridge, is an aspirant for
commissioner of this district at the dem
ocratic primary, September 3. -
1t is said that people are very negli-
gent about registering this year. Many
not realizing, perhaps, that unless they
register they cannot vote. They cannot
swear in their vote at the election in
November as formerly could be done.
Waterme1ons are now ripe at Julia
eta and a few shipments are beng
made. They started out at price OF
two and one-half cents per pound.
There will be many local-grown melons
this year that will exceed Is pounds
each in weight, and there will doubtless
be some. 40-pounders of the Kleckley
sweet variety.

Philip and Russell Bjorn are expect

MUSTARD GAS WORST
Most Horrible Invention Huns
Use in War.
It Brings Tears and Causes Painful
Skin Diseases Among
Soldiers.

Washington.-The most dangerous
kind Of poison gas used by the Ger
mans, is mustard gas" or dichloro-
diethysulphide.
Mustard gas has a distinctive but
not altogether unpleasant smell, more
like garlic than mustard. 1t is heavy
and oily asa liquid. 1t boils at PIT de-
grees centigrade, and thus has proper
ties whereby it can be distributed in
the form of spray on the impact Of a
shell.
Mustard gas is a powerful producer
of tears. After several hours the eyes
begin to swell and blister, causing in
tense pain. The nose discharges freely,
and severe coughing and vomiting en-
sue.
Direct contact with the spray causes
blistering of the skin, and the vapor
penetrates through the clothing. Gas
masks, Of course, do not protect
against this. The symptoms are similar
to pneumonia - high fever, heavy
breathing and often stupOr.
The damage done by mustard gas is
breaking down of the affected tissues
is slow, the height being reached from
five to ten days after the burn is re-
ceived The painlessness is also a
marked characteristic. Healing is
slow.
Mustard gas besides being used in
direct attack, is also used for ''neutra-
lization." For instance, where supplies
and ammunition are being brought up,
q few mustard gas shells will result
in dangerous confusion and delay. A
part of the infantry is "neutralized'
by having food and ammunition cut
down. If the shell hurts as well as
neutralizes, so much the better.
The American mask to fight mustard
gas is of the box respirator type. The
hood is of rubber. Breathing is
through the mouth, pincers shutting
off the nostrils. The gas-charged air
enters through the bottom of the can
listers, where by means of neutralizing
chemicals, it is purified. From the top
of the canister the air is drawn into
the lungs.
!. There is a one-way shutter valve in
the hood through which the air comes
out This mask is designed to last ten
hours. For artillerymen the war de-
partment has made an oil suit which
encloses the soldier bodily.

Harvest Work is Stopped.

A heavy rain which began yester-
day evening and continued during a
great part Of the night and much of
today, has stopped all harvest work
and frightened farmers to some ex-
tent. The rain will delay harvest
work for several days, even with warm
weather following, and if it should
continue tomorrow but very little har-
vest work will be done this week. So
far little, if any, damage has been
done, except to peas, which will shat
ter badly when they become dry. The
rain was general throughout Latah
county and south Of Moscow there
was quite heavy hail storm which
did some damage Sunday evening.

Cure for Dysentery.

"While l was in Ashland, Kansas,
a gentleman overheard me speaking
of Chamberlain's Collie and Diarrhoea
Remedy" writes William Whitelaw,
of Des Moines, Iowa. "He told me in
detail Of what it had done for his
family, but more especially his daugh-
ter who was lying at the point OF
death with violent attack of dysen-
terry, and had been given up by the
family physician. Some of his neigh
bors advised him to give Chamber
lain's Collie and Diarrhoea Remedy,
which he did, and fully believes that
by doing so saved the life of his child.
He stated that he had also used this
remedy himself with equally crafty
ing results" A.

YELLOW PINE WILL
SHIP BIG TONNAGE
MIXED ORE CARRYING ZINC
CONTINUES GOING TO
SHELTER

The directors of the Yellow Pine
Mining company met in Goodsprings
Thursday and on Friday a contract
was closed with the Empire Zinc
company calling for the shipment
CT 1900 tons per month OF mixed
ere. This move was made as the
result of the temporary c%ancelling
of the Yellow Pine Mining COM
rany's contract with the American
Metals company.
A cyclone in Oklahoma last week
almost demolished the smelter at
B%artleville Oklahoma, and as "a con-
sequence the plant at Langeloth,
Pennsylvania, was so congested
that it was necessary to cut down
on shipments, and the Yellow Pine
was one of the first to fall under
the axe by reason of the fact that
its contract was one of the most
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS, that is for
the Yellow Pine Mining company.
There was considerable discus
sion around the camp as to the
probability of the. Yellow Pine
company being able to find another
satisfactory market for the mixed
ores, and the possibility of discon-
tinuing operation. This unhappy
state of affairs was averted, how
v and a satisfactory contract
with the Empire Zinc company was
closed through their representative,

Wildcat Attacks Man

John G. Taylor, a Humboldt coun-
ty sheepman, and r. Barry, state
sheep inspector, were attacked and
wounded by a wildcat, supposed to
have been rabid, a few days ago at
Taylor's shearing pens in Squaw
valley. The animal sprang at Tay-
lor's back and bit him on the neck.
Barry went to the rescue and was
bitten on the leg before the cat
could be killed. The men lost no
time in boarding an automobile and
driving to Golconda, from where they
vent to Reno to take the Pasteur
treatment.
