From the extreme east, the middle

The dispatch, as it appeared in the
Boise Statesman for Monday, under
Pocatello dateline was as follows:
POCATELLO, IDA. Orange

sons, in northern Idaho, was prac
tically wiped out by a cloudburst
Saturday, according to information
received here. One life is report
ed to have been lost Four feet
of water raced through the main
street. One man is reported to
have been caught when a wall fell.
A theater building is said to have
collapsed, but whether any lives
were lost has not been made
known.
Local people do not understand why
Pocatello, a city many hundreds of
miles away, should place a story of
this kind on the wire, when on Satur
