last week when the supreme court
denied a re-hearing. The plea for

Lone Bandit Robs
Train No. IL West
of American Falls

One of the boldest robberies ever
staged in this section occurred Mon
day evening west of American Falls
when train number II was boarded
by a masked bandit and the pas
sengers of the observation car rob-
bed of money and other valuables.
After securing about $430 in cash
and gold watch and chain valued
at $50 the bandit dropped from the
rear of the train as he had boarded
it.
The train was in charge Of Con-
ductor Bogges and Engineer Dean,
and as the conductor entered the
front end of the car he realized that
it was being held up and he i'm
mediately locked the door SO that
the bandit could not reach the other
cars. When the bandit found that
he could not get thru he forced the
fiagman to signal the engineer to
slow down and he jumped off the
rear platform and was lost in the
darkness.
An automobile was seen standing
near the right-of-way short time
before the train arrived and 1t is
thought that the bandit made his
escape in this. Search of the terri
tory near the robbery was carried on
that evening but no trace of the
robber was found.
He is described as being a man
about 27 years old light hair and
wearing duck coat with overalls
and brown army shoes. He wore
goggles over his eyes and a hand
kerchief over the lower part Of his
face.

TWO COUNTIES ARE
IMPROVING ROADS
Butte and Bingham
Each Building to
County Line

Bingham and Butte counties are
planning to improve the Arco-Black-
foot road, each building to it's own
county line. The matter was urged
upon their attention year ago last
August, but they did not have the
funds that they felt justified in u.s.
ing for that purpose then, so they
waited a year. Our commissioners
do not feel that they have the funds
that they can use at this time, but
citizens are so anxious to get the i'm
provements made that the commits
sioners have announced that they are
willing to pay half of the expense out
of the county treasury If the other
half can be raised among the people.
Engineers have been looking over
the situation and making estimates
and a committee went out from
Blackfoot on Wednesday morning to
have a final look, with the view of
locating the road from Taber west
ward along the railroad track.
The party was composed of the
county commissioners, the county
clerk, county surveyor, J. E. Esten-
sen, H. B. Kinney, e. D. Bloom, L. B.
2 Dustin, ]. G. Hartong and o. E. Bills.
They followed the road along The
railroad from Taber to the lavabeds
above Furey, then crossed to the old
road leading to the rock house and
returned favorably impressed with
the feasibility of making the per-
manent road along the railroad and
covering the lava with something to
protect the tires from the rocks.
They will have the county surveyor
make some estimates Of the cost.

FRENCH PREMIER
ARRIVES in U. 5.
Entire Party Here in
Interests of
Peace

Premier BRAND of France and
head of the French delegation,
landed in New York Monday from
the steamship Lafayette.
Until he was taken i'll with an
affection in the throat during the
voyage he held long and frequent
conversations with many of the
other members of the French party,
and newspaper correspondents, both
French and American. Shortly after
the voyage was started M. BRAND
suggested that all the members Of
the party should move around and
exchange views. This would ac-
quaint all the members with the
views of each other and they would
then arrive at certain unity Of
thought.
On his arrival in New York he
was accompanied by former Premier
Viviani, who was companion Of
Marshal Joffre on his visit here in
1917, and by Albert Sarraut, French
senator and minister Of the colonies.
In order that the delegation might
reach Washington as soon as possible
ceremony was dispensed with. The
delegates are anxious to become
thoroly situated before the opening
Of the conference tomorrow.
France is ready to join in every
endeavor to avert new wars, "Pro-
vided she has nothing to fear for her
own security, which remains one >0f
the most solid guarantees Of the
peace of the world" said Premier
BRAND on his arrival.
The French delegates give every,
assurance that they are attending
the conference in the interests OF
peace. Today, they say the world Is
tired of war and wants not only
soothing words but realities.
Farnce has taken the stand that
their obligations to the league Of ma
tions does not preclude her from
Joining other nations in limitation
of armaments and her stand in re-
gard to the commercial opportunities
is identical with that of the United
States. Frances navy is already be-
low any formula likely to be adopted
and there will be no difficulties met
with in the restriction of her sea
armaments. French interests con-
centrates on land armaments and
their strength is conditioned by
Germany and the payment or nom
payment of reparations.
So If the question Of debts is
drought up at this conference the
Erench representatives are prepared
to discuss them. ts@

Mr.. Richard Sealy who is

MIR. Richard Sealy who is
employed with the Southern
Roads Co. near Helena, Ark. ar
rived home this week to spend
a few days. Mr.. Sealy states
that the Southern Roads Co. are
completing a contract for the
erection of eighty miles of bith-
uletic highway through the
country. The people of that sec
ton of Arkansas have long since
realized the futility of building
anything but permanent high
ways. This is the experience of
most every section of the United
States. In Florida one can
travel over a stretch Of five hum
dred miles on bithuletic roads.
This brings us back to the great
waste of money expended on
our highway leading to our sis
ter town of Jeanerette. As it
stands to-day it will not be
many months before the same
amount Of gravel formerly put
upon it will be required again.
The best is the cheapest under
any circumstances which has
been proven in that case also.
Until we have a bithuletic road
to Jeanerette we will aways be
expending money to maintain it.

Work was started on the
gravel highway between New
Iberia and Delcambre this week.
Capt. Thomas Jones, the local
engineer is experimenting the
work which is being done by
Mr.. Phil Broughton. This road
will enable the people living on
.Jefferson's Island To transact
business in our CITY. For
many months the residents in
that vicinity have been clam.
moring for an improved high
way 30 as to be in position to
come to the Parish seat. JET
ferson's Island trade instead Of
going to Abbevi1le viii be more
inclined to come to New iberia.
For years and years the greater
norton Of that territory living
between Delcambre and New
iberia have been almost inn
passable in the rainy season and
as a consequence thousands Of
dollars was lost TO the mer-
chants of New iberia. Once
this link is finally completed
we can then hope for trade from
that section Of the country.
