DATE is FIXED
FOR TRANSFER OF
YANK INSURANCE

Washington, May 21.-The War
Risk Insurance Bureau has tentative
ly fixed June l as the date for the
issuance of the new life insurance
policies for which soldiers, sailors
and marines may exchange their pol
icies issued to them under the War
Risk Insurance act. Applications for
conversion are now being received.
While no intensive campaign to in
duce holders Of the War Risk Act
policies to transfer to the new form
of insurance has been launched as
vet applications are invited now in
order to Obviate a rush when the
time arrives for transfers to be made
and also to encourage holders of the
policies to make the exchange when
it is most convenient for them to do
so.
The Bureau has also made it known
that it will not consider policies as
having lapsed even though, after dis
charge, man may have ceased pay
ment or has notified the Bureau that
he wishes to cancel his policy, until
ample time has been granted for re-
The bureaus policy will
be to allow soldier, sailor or marine
to put his policy back in force by
payment of back installments within
a period Of SIX months.
Up to the middle of April, the Bu-
reau had paid 10000 claims for in
surance awards for death. Only 1904
claims have been disallowed, and in
a good many of these cases the action
is not final

BOARD MEETS
TO PROBATE
VALLEY WATER

Tomorrow the Imperial Irrigation
District will pro-rate water to the
different mutual water companies FOR
the coming summer.
This is an annual function of the
district board and one which may
prove of great import to the valley.
In case of water shortage the pro
ration gives to each farmer a cer-
tain percentage of the total water,
but it is believed that the coming sum-
mer there will not be such a short
age as in years past.
Yesterday the board was in consul
tation with the Yuma district board
members. The visit was in the ma
ture of get-together meeting, as no
differences between the two districts
have arisen this year 1t was thought
best by the Imperial Valley board to
talk over matters with the Yuma
men in advance of any friction.

COYLE URGES PLAN
FOR A STREET AND
ROAD DIR f TORY

That not only the streets should
be named and numbered in the course
cf the paving operations in Holtville,
but that there should be some ac-
ton among the ranchery in the coun-
try surrounding this community to
put some sort of a directory on the
corners where the rural free delivery
boxes are located, is the suggestion
CT j. T. Coyle, secretary of the Holt
vile Commercial Club.
Mr.. Coyle's idea is that, in addi
tion to the name on the box, the
rancher could add the directions, as
it is located from the box, and any
other necessary directions, as be-
cause of the unnamed roads here
abouts it is very difficult to find the
location of a rancher, especially by
one who is stranger or unfamiliar
with that particular part of the coun-
try.
Such plan, said Mr.. Coyle, would
work we'll with the Farm Bureaus
recent action in asking the super
mission to include within the scope
of its work the naming of all county
roads.
1t would be a good plan, when the
houses in the city are numbered, to
also urge each householder to place
by the side of the. number another
sign bearing his name. When he
changes his residence this could be
removed and put up on the new res
idence.
Mr.. Coyle suggested that now would
be the time to carry out this plan,
as City Engineer Burk could easily
arrange the numbers, of the lots on
his draftsmans' sheets. and then they
could be obtained at the city hail.

PATIENT
GAINS II POUNDS
PROMINENT PHYSICIAN CON-
TINUES TO USE TANLAC IN
PRACTICE WITH SURPRISING
RESULTS.

One of the strongest and most con-
vincing evidences of the remarkable
results being accomplished by Tanlac
throughout the South is the large
humber Of letters that are now be-
ing received daily from scores of we'll
known men and women who have
been benefited by its use.
Among the large number that have
been received recently none are more
interesting than the following letter
from DR.. j. 7. Edwards, of Fayette-
vile, Ga. DR.. Edwards, it will be re-
membered, recently gave Tanlac his
UNQUALIFIED Endorsement in public
statement, and the testimonial pub
1ished below was recently given him
by one Of his patients. His letter fol-
lows just as it was written:
Fayetteville, Ga.
Mr.. G. F. Willis, Atlantic, Ga.
Dear SIR
/ am enclosing you herewith state
ment have just received from Mr.. T.
M. McGough. He has sold out here,
and is moving to Turin, Ga. He was
here this morning, and came in to tell
me what Tanlac had done for him.
He says too much cannot be said
about 'Tanlac. 1t certainly has cured
him.
Respectfully,
J. E. Edwards, M. d.
Mr.. McGough's statement follows:
81 suffered from Indigestion and
could not eat anything but what
would hurt me. Constipation gave me
a great deal of troruble. Ny symp-
toms were indigestion, heartburn, and
gas on the stomach after eating. My
appetite was irregular and my food
failed to nourish me. This trouble
caused me to get very poor-in fact,
! got so thin and weak was hardly
able to go about.
"I fought three bottles of Tanlac on
DR.. Edwards recommendation, and l
am feeling all right again, and am
able to attend to business. ! gained
seventeen pounds in weight and am
doing fine. Tanlac did the work.
II now recommend Tanlac to
everyone who is sick like ! was and
wishes to take something that will
help them."

Princess Zoraida, whose exhi-
bitions of clairvoyance and palm
readings have established her an
enviable reputation wherever the
magic arts are known, has created
a sensation in Ell Centre. The re-
suit is that in her parlors at the
Princess hotel she is daily receiv-
ing a constant procession of peo-
pie seeking advice, some of them
being persons most prominent in
the city's business community.
So rapidly has the story of her
powers spread that she is already
being consulted by many persons
from scattered parts of the Valley.
Her register shows names from
Calexico, Brawley. Imperial, Holt
vile and Calipatria. Her visitors
have expressed amaZement and
wonder at her mystifying work.
From the time a persons is es-
corted into the reception room un-
til they leave the presence of the
Princess, no questions are asked,
but in the space of few minutes
she demonstrates beyond a perad-
venture of a doubt that she pos
sesses a psvchic insight that can
not be excelled by the most gifted,
and seldom is equaled.
Princess Zoraida is native of
Egypt, where, under the guidance
of masters Of occultism, she de-
veloped her natural psychic en-
dowment. For many years she
has resided in the United States
and the people of many cities know
her high reputation and great
powers.
She visits the Valley on the first
section of projected return to
her Egyptian home. She intends
remaining here but a short time,
and those who desire an opportu-
nifty to consult her are urged to do
SO Immediately.

STAR VALLEY PIONEER y
PASSES TO GREAT BEYOND

Mrs. A. Lu Hale died at her home
in Star Valley Friday morning. Sept.
26. In chronicling her death the At
ton Independent says:
Mrs. Hale had been in poor
health most of the summer, but had
not been bed fast until the last three
days. She had been sufferer with
cancer of the stomach, but 1t was the
belief of Mr.. Hale that this had been
cured, and death was the result of
complication of diseases following.
In the passing of Aunt Eliza, as
she was 'familiarly known to her host
of friends, Star Valley loses one of
its noblest and grandest ladies. At
ter long and useful life she died as
she had lived-honored, trusted and
loved. While she lived she reared
her own monument in the hearts of
all those who knew her. Her life
was, completed if work all done and
we'll done constitutes completion.
Her christian life was beautiful from
the beginning to end, and through
all the vicissitudes and sorrows that
she met in her way, her faith in God
never wavered. But she has left us
and soon the autumn leaves will fall
upon another grave that hides from

THE IDAHO STATE FAIR
WAS A BIG SUCCESS

Boise, Oct. 1-Thirty-two thou
sand and nineteen paid admissions
were recorded at the state fair here
last week, breaking all former rec
ords by tremendous margin. In
addition to this about $1,000 admis-
sions were unrecorded, passes for
managers of concessions, assistants
on the grounds, state officials and
others making a grand attendance of
over $4,000.
Stimulated by this success, the fair
management has already launched
plans for an even greater exhibition
next year. Radical changes are con-
templated in the amusement features.
One Of the principal changes will be
the elimination of carnival companies
and the substitution of a better form
of amusement.
The seating capacity next year will
be increased 5000. Present facilities,
although enlarged by 200 seats over
last year, were crowded to the limit
on the big days and hundreds of peo-
pie were turned awey.
Wild west and buckaroo exhibit
tions will be featured next year and
the state fair will be nationally ad-
vertised.

BEWARE OF BOI4SHEVISM
SAYS COOPER TO LABOR

Washington, D. c., Oct. 1.-THE
great problem which confronts us at
this time is how are we going to get
back to normal conditions again and
bring back to our people that feeling
of content and happiness we have en-
joyed in the past in this country"
Representative John G. Cooper, of
Ohio, a union labor man, told the
House.
"All over our land today, we see
and hear the feeling ur unrest. Dis
content and dissatisfaction seem to
be prevalent wherever we go. AS we
read our newspapers we get reports
of very disturbed conditions among
the working classes employed in our
industries and in our mines. We
read of strike after strike, until it
seems as If our wheels Of industry
have stopped. We read of some MEM
bers of labor organizations who re-
fuse to obey the mandates OF their
officials and defy their orders and
strike after their officres have order
ed them not to cease work. One of
the best evidences of this condition is
that in the last two or three months
the officials of some of the brother
hoods have expelled many men from
their organizations for disobeying
their official orders.
Il am one of those who believe that
many Of our great union labor lead
ers are loyal American citizens who
are interested, not only in the well
fare of the members of their organ
izations, but also in the welfare of
all of the people of the nation. But
/ do not hesitate to say that 1t ap-
pears as if these conservative labor
leaders may be pushed aside in or
der to let a more radical element
take their places. I want to try and
warn the American laboring man not
to be led astray by these radical So
called labor leaders, who would over
throw our form of government and
destroy the sacred institutions which
in the past have been so near and
dear to the hearts of the American
people.
II have now and always have had
warm feeling in my heart for the
working classes, and I stand ready
to assist them at any time to better
their conditions. I believe in the g.
hour day and I also believe that the
time has ceme that the men who
work with their hands should have
a fairer portion of the profits that
industry earns. further believe in
the right of collective bargaining
and 1 trust that the day will sooI
come when there will be closer
more friendly cooperation between
managers and men. But I want tC

agitators."
