CHAUTAUQUA IS WELL
ON WAY TO SUCCESS

The ChautaIqua has opened again
most auspiciously, with an attendance
last night that shows the old spirit
that never dies; testifying anew that
Salmon knows the value and helpful
ness of the good things provided in
these entertainments and always sup-
ports them. The big tent was full OF
people to hear the Wells entertainers,
called the Apollo Duo on the bill, and
Mather Hilburn in his wonderful i'm
presentations. To hear just one banjo
number by Mr.. Wells is worth any-
worth twice as much as a piano-logist.

filled all faces with delightful smiles
and the tent with continuous Joy. The
heavier numbers come later.
Mrs. Reed, an accomplished woman
OF grace and poise, has charge Of the

Miss Agnes Beach has charge of
the children's part in the daily pro-
grams and is providing some special
entertainment for them, with a prom

WARNICK'S BODY is
RECOVERED In RIVER

The body of the hapless way,arer,
Henry J. Warwick, who lost his life in
the Salmon river rapids below Dead
Water, has been found and recovered.
Grover Ramsey first saw and under
took unsuccessfully to land the body
which he discovered last Saturday
morning two miles above the Wend
ranch. A few hours later Oscar West
fall found the body lodged on a gravel
bar just below the same place, near
the old water wheel in the river.
Ihen the officials at Salmon were no.
titled and Coroner Doebler set forth
at once with w. B. Fowler, who knew
Warwick and could identify the re-
mains. A five-dollar bill was found
in the mans pocket with a deposit
slip. The body was buried at Salmon
but may be exhumed and shipped east
to the parental home at Scranton. Pa.

Nellie Thirlkill Of the L. c. Thirl-
kill family in Salmon was taken on
her feet in the swift current OF the
Salmon river last Sunday and was in
peril Of drowning when DR.. J. r.
Adams rescued her. The child, who
is about i2 years Of age, had entered
the river above the bridge with q
number of companions and was un-
able to swim in the deep water but
managed to float or keep her head up
till DIR. Adams reached her. near the
little island below the bridge. At that
time, however. she was utterly ex-

BANK ROBBERS FAIL
IN GT1nCATC Cash
INSTITUTION AT LEADORE Is
BuRGLARIZED But ONLY
SAFE DEPOSIT BOXES ARE
REACHED.

what appears to be the raw work
of amateurs in safe-cracking occurred
at the Lenlhi Valley bank at Leadore
last Tuesday morning at an early
honr when two burglars entered the
bank for purposes of robbery but fall
ed to secure any actual cash for the
reason that the banks strong box
could not be broken. Instead the
burglars succeeded in getting into the
safe deposit boxes, from which they
made a cleanup Of liberty bonds to
an amount of S1,SO0 and possibly
some other valuables. From the fact
that the bonds are numbered and
known it will be a difficult transac-
tion to handle them. The same day
the bank officials opened up as usual,
doing business at the old stand, not
the least embarrassed for funds.
1t is reported that the nocturnal WIS.,
itors frst secured and gagged Jim
Slater, the night watchman, whom
they found asleep in the building just
north of the bank, and at another
nearby building, that of w. F. Stone,
where IN the upper rooms the family
is quartered, guard was said to
have been placed to prevent intrusion,
and then the robbery proceeded. AZ
terward Mr.. Stone, who saw the men
walk away south, gave the alarm to
the bank cashier. In the Stone living
quarters there were plenty of guns
but nothing to load them with, and
so the imprisoned merchant was help
less.
The sheriff's department has sent
out the alarm, giving the number of
the bonds and sufficient identifying
marks to cause trouble for those at
tempting to negotiate them. The

Fellows hall, over the store of Mrs.
Langel. At previous meetings the
congregation has included as many as
a score Of persons and the number is
steadily growing, with the expecta-
ton by members that a regular
church may soon be organized for the
Salmon stake, which will probably
embrace the Salmon country. This
organization IL to be completed, so it
rs understood, as soon as authorize
ton can be secured from President
Iverson of Portland.

EXCESSIVE HEAT But

The forest service thermometer
whose record Is kept BY Mrs. Hines,
gives the high temperature of We'd

the summer. High temperatures have
prevailed for three weeks. There was
decided decline in the unusual heat
yesterday. Only q small patch Of
snow on Badly mountain Is now show

within few days. The hills are be-
coming dry and yellow and all the
forest will soon be parched in dryness
except as to shased slopes and deep
canyons. Still with all the excessive
heat, which has brought drying
winds, the streams are still holding
their own and plenty OF water Is
promised for the entire irrigating
season.

CARL HIGH SUICIDE
AT CALIFORNIA HOME

Carl w. High, former Lemhi coun-
tian but living at Ventura, California,
for several years, took his life there
a few days ago by drinking poison.
He was son of Mrs. George Devils
of Baker and his wife is a daughter
of Mr.. and Mrs. ]. Bohannon. There
are three children of the suicide. He
ieft a number of letters giving his
reasons for the act, among others
charging his wife with nagging him.
This charge is denied by the neigh
bors. Rather il is set down as case
of pitiful lunacy. For the relatives
and home friends of the families in
VOWED in the sad affair there is felt
the widest sympathy.
Mr.. High owned Eagle Rock farm,

FOUR MASKED MEN ON JOB.
fSppcial Dispatrhl


LEADORE, July 20.-The Lemh
Valley bank at Leadore was broker
into and robbed by four masked mer
between the hours of 2 and Tues.
day. morning, July 10, 1921.
James Slater, who has apartments
in the building next door, was awak.
ened. from a sound sleep at about two
or two-thirty by fash light thrown
in his face and found a large six
shooter one of the largest James ever
saw pointed in his direction, with q
masked man behind it. The men pro.
ceeded at once to tie him UP and gag
him, one acting as guard outside the
bank and occasionally paying a visit
to Slater to insure that he was secure
The other three, breaking the glass
in the front door of the bank obtained
entrance and proceeded to blow the
safe, evidently with nitroglycerine
requiring two shots to complete the
job. Meeting other obstacles they
proceeded to the G and p. tool shed
across the street and obtaining
siedge hammers, returned to the bank
and completing the work of gaining
entrance to the safe containing the
safety deposit boxes.
According to latest reports they
obtained about $500 or $1,000 worth
of war saving stamps and liberty
bonds, some registered and some not.
The bank itself suffered no loss

These maneuvers Mrs. Stone was en-
abled to see from the front window
of the Stone residence.
Apparently they stepped around the
corner into an airplane and scared
away for since that moment nothing
has been seen or heard of them
though the alarm was given inmedi-
afely and the hunt started by Deputy
Sheriff Ford within twenty minutes.
Since that time no effort has been
spared by Sheriff Stroud, Deputies
Ford Of Leadore and Stout Of Gilmore,
together with numerous deputized cit
izens but without discovering a trace
A peculiar Circumstance is the fact
that though a number OF people were
awakened and alert at the time the
robbers made their getaway no auto

THE PROPOSED NORTH FORK
AND BITTER ROOT ROAD

/ The proposed North fork and Bitter
Root forest highway, already well un-
der way on the Montana side Of TIE
continental divide, will afford a direct
north and south highway for the use
OF travellers within the state of Idaho
unite IN pronOuncing it model road.
tlonai park travel and divert q nor
ton Of It this way. All travellers who
have used the Montana park k-to-park
highway, which this road will tan.
unite in pronouncing it model road.
The forest people as well as the fed
eral division of public road construc-
tion have determined upon the. same
sort OF highway extending down the
North fork river from the great tii-
vide to connect with this Montan
road. The proposed North fork road
proper extends not only to Gibbons
VILE over present trail for twelve
miles but on down the North fork
river and thence up the Salmon riy-
er 70 Fourth of July creek, over a
fairly good road already made for
eighteen or twenty miles.
For the reason that the forest SER
vice has already determined upon the
North fork route for crossing the di-
vide rather than Dahlonega creek
route the cooperation of Lemhi coun-
~ has practically been determined uD-
on though local interests have ali
along favored the Dahlonega route as
affording better outlet for Lemhi
county products in the Big Hole coun-
Try. This market will still be easily
tapped over the other route, however,
ana though that is little longer the
easier grade will more than make up
for the longer distance.
There are local contractors ready.
SO Il is said. to bid for construction
work. One of the Salmon bankers
says It is possible, if market be not
found for the bond issue for the coun-
TVS share of the expense of construc-
ton, to issue the bonds direct to the
contractor in this case, if it be practi-
cal and legal to resort to this means
OF raising the wherewithal to pay for
the new road.
John b. Achord, the highest-up
rancher on the North fork river where
the new road is to go, has ALWAYS
contended that the easy grade afford
ed that way over the divide would
sooner or later cause the selection Of
that route. The Achord ranch il To-
Gated about six miles from the ton.
The grade all the way up is approx
mately. three per cent only. Ii has
been the dream of the life of this
hardy pioneer to see a stream of tray-
ei by his isolated dwelling place
where he and his thrifty wife have
reared strong family Of sons and
daughters and made honorable names
for themselves.
The road by way Of the Dahloneva
creek divide was built under the ad-
ministration Of County Commissioner
Charles NJ. Hull. when the funds
available were faithfully applied for
the purpose intended. The contractors
were Hal Brown, the engineer; Jack
McFredericks. Hull brothers and Ed
Allen. In speaking of The Recorders
story Of the achievement OF Brown in
laying out road up one side of the
continental divide that could be built
for contract price of S4,i00, which
was the small amount involved. Me-
Fredericks said it stood as a credit
able piece of work for Brown and an
example for other public undertakings
of the kind.
