Marie Elizabeth StahI.

The death of Mrs Emil Stahl Sat
Saturday brought grief and sadness
to not only her family, but also to
very many friends who had been led
to love her for her goodness and
congeniality. She had been i'll for
many weeks with a tuner on the
brain and it was this that caused her
untinlely demise. Mrs. Stahl was 40
years of age. She was born in Eng
land and came to this country when
10 years old. She came to Emmett
in 1916 with her husband and was
continually associated with him in
the bakery business until failing
health compelled her retirement Be-
side the husband, two children survive
her, girl and boy, the latter by a
former marriage. She leaves also
a mother and father, living at Lake
view, Iowa, one brother and five sis
ters.. One sister, Mrs. Murphy of
Fort Dodge, Iowa, was here during
the latter part Of her illness. The |
funeral services were conducted Mon /
day by DR.. E. G. Keith.

Mac Hid Ont.

The Index last week told of the
honors won by Emmett fruit at the
state fair. But there is another side
to the story, which is somewhat anus
ing. The exhibit was in charge of
Mac Park and Louis Larson. Peaches
had been placed in cold storage some
time previous to the opening day.
When the committee called for the
stored fruit an extra crate was de-
livered to them, which, as later events
disclosed, had been deposited in the
storage house by an Owyhee county
fruit grower. These extra peaches
were just what was wanted as the
Emmett collection was not of suffi-
cient size and variety to be eligible
for entry. AS told last week, the
display copped the bacon. Soon after
the awards had been made, wild-eyed
man appeared on the scene He had
located his missing peaches by the
crate that had been thrownl
under the exhibit table. Mac saw him
sensed a violent storm and
quickly made his getaway, leaving
Mr.. Larson to take the consequences.
There was q scene for 4 few minutes,
then Louie's suavity and diplomacy
mad its effect and the incident closed |
BY the Owyhee fruit grower inviting
Mr.. Larson to go and have nip"

PRESBYTERIAN PASTOR
INSTALLED
Impressive Addresses by Prom
inent Clergymen Features
of the Ceremonies.

The installation of Rev. Ralph T.
Case as pastor of the Emmett Pres
byterian church marked an import
ant epoch in the history of that Sc
ciety. A good-sized audience attend
ed the services and took deep inter-
est in the ceremonies.
The principal address was given by
DR.. ]. H. Baird, pastor Of the First
Presbyterian church of Boise, on the
theme of "The Church" 1t was a
foreeful exposition Of the church, es-
pecially as related to the individual
God works in the world for progress
whenever and wherever He finds. an
individual who will allow God to en-
ter into him, use him fully, work in
ard through him His purposes The
church is the cooperation Of such
individuals and powerful to the de-
gree in which the individutls permit
God to dominate over their lives. In
Gods plan there is work for all, ac-
cording to individual ability, however
unworthy the individual may feel him
self, and God expects every man to
do what he is peculiarly fitted for.
Perfection is not the basis of church
membership, but willingness to sub
NIT life to God, and utilize his agen-
cies for the development of full
grown character in the household of
faith" Mr.. Baird's message was
greatly appreciated by all who heard
him.
Following the sermon, the installa-
tion questions were put to the con-
gregation and pastor, after which the
pastoral relationship was declared in
effect.
DIR. c. l. Chalfant, vice president
Of the College of Idaho, gave the
charge TO the pastor, indicating in
several ways how he could best serve
the community as pastor.
The Rev. G. W. Barnum of the Sec
ond Presbyterian Church of Boise de-
ivered the charge to the people, sug-
costing what attitude the congrega-
ion should take in the new pastor
i bonds to make for the strength Of
he church.
The benediction was pronounced by
he pastor.

DEER HUNTERS AT
LARGE
Emmett Sports Get Good Bags
Game Plentiful

Emmett hunters who have returned
from deer hunting in the mountains
have all returned with their quota.
Reports are that deer have not been
so plentiful for many years. Most
of the carcasses brought in so far are
does, the weather not having reached
that stormy stage usual at this time
of year, which causes the bucks to
seek lower attitudes.
On Tuesday, Doug Knox brought
in three, one of them a 250-pound
buck shot by Lou Otkins. Doug got
one and the other was killed by Ches-
ter Tarleton- Eldon Graves, who is
with the Holverson-H Haylor party, and
is having his first experience ~ a
deer hunter, brought down his first
a few days after making camp near
Knox. Dr. Holverson of Boise and
Morris Haylor, who were also MEM
bers of that party, returned last
night with one each. Mrs. Holverson,
who had her first experience last year
and made kill, is in the party and is
waiting for the big fellows.
Mr.. and Mrs. Keith Burns have gone
to the Middle Fork to hunt deer.
DR.. l. A. Wood and viii Madden |

DEATH CLAIMS HARRY
SHEARER
Was Resident of Idaho 40
Years and of Emmett
Country 81 Years.

Harry Shearer, for 81 years a
Prancher on the butte and for Al years
q resident of Idaho, died Monday
morning at the VanDeusen ranch
home, aged II years. A stroke of
apoplexy, induced by Bright's dis
ease, was the cause of his death.
Few men in this section of the
state had larger acquaintance or
more friends than Harry Shearer.
His home on the butte, where he had
spent the 81 years of his residence
here, was known far and wide for its
hospitality and good cheer. He was
a gentleman of the old school, well
educated and well posted, kindly and
generous and was at home in any
company. He came to Idaho from
Mount Prairie, Wis, when 80 years
old and entered the internal revenue
service, being deputy collector and
seal tester for this district, which
then included southwestern Idaho.
While living in Boise he was a favor
ite in social circles. While making
a trip to Big Willow creek on official
duty he took fancy to the spot
where his home now is and filed q
squatter's right to the land which af-
terward became his ranch. Later,
when the land was surveyed and OPEN
ed to entry, he made sure of posses
sion by homesteading- He was a
lover of flowers and trees and made
the surroundings Of his cabin a beau
ty spot-an oasis in a desert. His
hobby was unusual and choice varie-
ties of nut and fruit bearing trees,
and in growing them he was success
full in marked degree. He carried |
his hobby into livestock and poultry,
and was probably the first to intro
luce pure bred strains Of poultry in
hin section. There he lived bach
slors pfc, happy anoong his pets-f
he trdks and flowers and shrubbery,
iis sto1k and pouitry-and more hap
~ when he WAS congenial host to
riends who enjoyed his hospitality
md eompanSonzhips Sixteen years
Igo he married the wife who survives
Jim and is the only member of the
Iome, and through the union the hos
'itality Of the home lost none of its
ormer warmth.
Funeral services were held Tues
ay afternoon in the chapel, consist
ng of songs by quartet and short,

STANDPIpE TO HAVE
CLEANING
Accumulation of Is Years of
Sediment to be Removed
Other Proceedings.

When someone suggested at Mon
day nights meeting of the city coun-
Gil that the standpipe Of the city wa
terworks system ought to be cleaned,
the fact was brought out that the re-
servoir had not been cleaned since it
was set up some Is years ago. The
waterworks committee was instruct
ed to investigate as to how best to
do the work without interfering with
the service to patrons. It is esti-
mated that at least two days will be
required to renovate the tank and
give the interior coat Of paint. It
is probable some Sunday and Monday
will be the days selected. A sugges-
tion was made that Saturday and
Sunday would be the best days, but
objection was made to Saturday on
the ground that it would never do to
interfere with the habit of Emmett
people of taking their weekly bath on
Saturday night. Monday was object
ed to because that is washday. But
is was thought it were better to put
off for one day the weekly wash than
TO take chance of postponing the
weekly bath another seven days.

age, were brought before him charged
with stealing quantities Of merchan-
disc, guns, pistols, auto tools ard
numerous other things The boys
were apprehended by Marshal Nc
Auley Saturday. Being questioned,
the boys admitted their guilt and upon
request brought to the marshal the
greater part of their loot. In addi-
tion to the above mentioned articleR,
the lads had broken into the Nazarene
and L. D. S. churches and had robbed
the contribution boxes of their con-
tents. From Sheriff Noland's car.
standing in front of the court hou se,
they had stolen shotgun, shells and
q flashlight. From Carl Lanes sec
ond hand store they had pilfered three
pistols and bowie knife. From autos
they had purloined all sorts of tools
and batteries. They had cached 40
pounds of chewing tobacco. When the
plunder had been returned the mar
shal's office looked like a country
store after bankrupt sale.
On Monday the boys were taken
before Judge Haag. After hearing
their confessions, the judge gave
them lecture, stern but full of good
advice and timely warnings of what
such acts eventually lead to. Then
ne placed them on parole pending
good behavior.
