of subscrintions for water from the
reservoir. The plans purpose to take
in the waters stored in Jackson lake,
now irrigating the Minidoka and Twin
Falls tract, distributing them in the
Upper Snake River valley and utiliz-
ing the water in the American Falls
reservoir to irrigate the lands in the
lower valley.
The idea of the Community club
was first suggested by w. c. Larson,
mayor of Paul. Ida, about year ago.
for the purpose of unifying all inter-
ests to expediate the work by the gov
eminent. As soon as the details of
Organization are worked out a Wig
orous campaign for members will be
undertaken. A nationwide plan of
publicity will be inaugurated, using
motion pictures and Photographs to
the attractions asd resources of the
valley.

American Falls Reservoir
Proposal

Gooding, Idaho.-Plans of the feder-
| al reclamation service to build a huge
storage reservoir on the site of Amer
lean Falls in Snake River valley, Idaho
will bring to the valley, at cost of
more than $1OOOOO,OOO for irrigation
development and homes, an increase
of $4,000 irrigable acres, an addition
of more than $2OO,OOO0OO to the tax
able wealth of the state, homes for
100000 settlers, and the largest arti-
fetal lake in the world.
c. J. Blanchard, chief statistician of
the United States reclamation service
who has just returned from Idaho
with R. B. Dame, service photo
grapher, made the above statement
concerning the jroject.
Move American Falls
American Falls will be moved to
the adjoining tableland," said Mr..
Blanchard, "and the citizens are in
full accord with the plan. As a cul-
mination of the desire of the residents
of the valley for complete storage and
equitable distribution of the waters,
the Snake River Valley Community
club was organized last week.
The plan is to unity all water in
terests, including private and cor
poration bitches, power plants, irri-
cation districts and the government.
The purpose is to explain to the world
the resources of the valley, and a
fund of 100000 is being raised to
provide homes on the land and in the
towns for the settlers who will come
into the valley with the engineering
project and the various attendant in
dustries."
Huge Undertaking
From an engineering standpoint
this is the most important undertake
ing of the reclamation service. 1t in
wolves the construction of some of the
most important engineering struc-
lures in the world and the feat of re-
moving the town of American Falls.

There was great excitement agong
the members of the Sheep Mems Ex-

night. 1t seems that several members
who were envious OF President Rob-

plot which was only too successful
By skillful maueuvering they entrap-
ped the honorable president into tell
ing the truth and had witnesses to
clinch the fact. OF course, Mr.. Rob
erts could do but one thing and that
was to tender his resignation at once.
To further humble his proud spirit,
he was placed at the foot of the class.
He left for Portland the next day, a
broken-hearted man. Col. Stevenson

A petition is being circulated and is
obtaining many signers asking the
county commissioners to raise the
rabbit car fund from three to five
cents. The petition sets forth that
unless they are killed off, they will
take the country, as they did some
years ago. The present bounty bare
ly pays for the ammunition as used in
killing them and consequently, no Wig
orous war has been waged on the
pest. With the FIVE cent bounty, a
hunter can make fair wages by killing
them and the incentive thus estab-
lished will do much to thin their
ranks. When they get thick the dam

A few months ago all south Idaho
was greatly excited over the arrest
of several men who were accused OF
stealing cattle and shipping them out
of the country by the car load. 1t
begins to look as though there was
nothing in it judging from the court
record. Andrews, one of the party al
legged to have been engaged in the
cattle stealing business, was acquitted
by jury without leaving the box, the
district attorney having no prosecut-
ing witnesses against him. The re-
naming cases are set for July 7. At
one time those cases were looked
upon as among the most important
ever docketed in the state but the
prosecution thus far has been so
tame that the cases cease to give
rise to any more street talk than the
ordinary case before the court.

IMPORTANT DATE IN HAWAII
Modern History Of Islands May Be
Said to Have Begun on Oc-
tober %, 1919.

The one hundredth anniversary Of
the departure Of the first missionaries
from the United States to the Sand
wich islands, as they were then known,
will be celebrated at Honolulu, Octo-
Der q. On that date in the year 1919,
the brig Thaddeus, Captain Hunnewell.
sailed from Boston for Hawaii. The
vessel anchored at Kailua. Kona,
Island Of Hawaii, April 5. 1920. and the
missionaries landed that day to begin
their work Of civilizing the natives and
converting them to Christianity. Those
who arrived in Hawaii on the Thadde-
US were Asa Thurston and Hirman
Bingham, ordained missionaries, with
their wives; Daniel Chamberlain.
Thomas Holmes, Samuel Whitney,
Samuel Ruggles, Elisha Loomis and
four Hawaiians-Honolii. Hopu and
Kanui-who had received some educa.
ton at Cornwall institute, and George
Humohumo, son Of Kaumuali, the king
Of the Island Of Kauai. The Hawaii
ans had been taken to the United
States in trading vessels. Traders and
whalers had been visiting Honolulu for
some years before the arrival Of the
missionaries but It is from the latter
event that the modern history Of Hs

VANISHED WITH THE BUFFALO
Few Left Of the Pronghorn Antelope,
That Once Roaned the Plains In
Vast Numbers.

Next to the buffalo, the most nu-
merous animal In the United States
not more than so years ago was the
pronghorn antelope, About half the
size of deer, but a bit more com
pactly built, 1t ranged the plains from
the Missouri river westward to the
Pacific in places.
Antelopes were dry-country animals,
and were always found wherever
sagebrush, bunch grass and the short,
curly buffalo grass existed. Their IA
vorite range was the plains country
just east Of the Rocky mountains.
where they migrated with the seasons,
from Alberta to Mexico, and between
the Rocky and the west coast ranges
from the Big Bend Of the Columbia in
Washington, southwark to the Cult
of California and the Mexican west
coast. It was the best runner Of all
the plains animals, and had endurance
for long-distance running, being well
able to take care Of itself when in dan
ger. Its meat Is not very attractive te
the white mans palate, being stringy
tough and dry, and having somewhat
the taste Of goat meat. Some are still
found, but only In widely scattered
areas.

Boston "Tea Party" However In

Boston's celebrated 'tea party"
which was held December 16, 1878,
has within recent years been the sub
ject of attack by iconoclasts. Not con-
tent with branding as a myth the story
of George Washington and the cherry
tree, and casting reflections on Paul
Revere, the famous equestrian hero,
the idol-smasherS have sought to prove
that the tea party was, in fact, beer
party. It was not the spirit of patriot
ism, but the spirits imbibed in John
DuCgan's tavern which animated the
immortal 60, disguised as Indians, &C
cOrding to the assertion made by
member Of the United States congress
few years ago. This assertion nat
urally aroused much indignation, and
has been offered.
According to the defenders Of the
tea party, John Duggan, the saloon
keeper who is said to have supplied
the beer which fired the patriotism
of the drinkers thereof, was only
seven years old at the time Of the
Boston occurrence, and, moreover, was
still in Ireland. Mr. Duggan, who
later sold liquor refreshments to the
thirsty of Boston town, was born in
1860. and did not come to America

What Becomes Of Old Cars?

II has generally been assumed that
when an automobile begins to show its
age, it gravitates to the rural districts,
but the observing traveller knows that
the average farmer likes new car as
well as the city man 1T Is evident that
the fate of used cars, and the reason
for the comparatively strong price
maintained on them, must be sought in
other directions.
Many secondhand cars are bought

to commercial uses; but by far the
larger number return to their makers,
or to the various branches, where they
are dissected for the many parts that,
with little cleaning, can be used
again, thus freeing the shops from the

FEW REALLY UGLY PEOPLE
Many Theirs Are Who May Be Unat-

Looking for beauty in the faces and
forms passed on the street is such
fixed habit with people in general that
1t was a bit startling to hear of man
in London who was looking for some
one ugly-the ugliest female, in fact
that he could find This man was an
American theatrical man and he de
sired the ugliest woman to contrast
her in a production with a girl said
to be beautiful.
The Snowman found his ugliest
woman after looking over eight con-
testants. The prize winning "clock-
stopper" was thirty-two years old and
a music teacher. She entered the con-
test because her mother told her
there would be no harm in trying"
On winning she at once insisted on
taking a stage name, as she did not
want all the neighbors to know about
it." The runner-up In the contest,
whose name was not given out, had
an unfortunate nose and an "out-
size" in mouths.
The contest really was Of concern
| to the theatrical producer, but II
served to impress upon Londoners in
general the old truth that few people
after all. are really ugly, that every
| individual looks good to some one.
Two people, who came upon the adj
vertisement Of the ugly contest, began
| to amuse themselves in the genial way
| of human nature by examining theil
| friends and acquaintances to discover
which of them had the best claim tc
the job.
To their disappointment, says g
writer in the London Telegraph, they
could not think Of anybody, not ever
their pet abomlnation, who was con
sidered impartially, very ugly. Plalr
