CLAIMS CALDWELL
MEN SHOT SHERIFF

A phone message was received at
the Jail late yesterday from Sheriff
Brady, who was at Boise. Idaho, stat
Ing that Constable Herbert c. Hoover
OF FalIon had positively Identified the
Two men being held at Caldwell for
the stealing of the Essex roadster as
the two who shot Sheriff Smith of Fal-
Ion recently while endeavoring to
escape with another automobile.
The men have given their names as
Earl Snyder and Tex Smith. Extradi-
ton papers were forwarded to Carson
City yesterday. which, after having
been signed by Governor Boyle, will
be forwarded 10 the Governor of Idaho
for his signature. and then to the off,
GERS at Coldwell. who 1t is expected
will be ready to start for home with
the two men the latter part of the
week.
The two men have also been iden-
titled as the two who stole an Auburn
car at Crane. Oregon, previous to the
Fallon shooting. and, as reported in
the last issue of The Silver State,
we're Identified as the men who stole
the Essex here from Ed Dyer's gar
age. They are being held in Caldwell
for the theft of the Auburn at Crane,
and are fighting extradition to this
state because of that charge. claiming
they can provide an alibi. Efforts are
being made by attorneys for the two
men to gain their release by a writ
OF habeas corpus. In anticipation of
this warrant was issued here yes
terday and forwarded to Brady charg-
ing the men with the theft of the Es-
sex. so that II they did gain their
freedom on teehnicality. Sheriff
Brady could at once re-arrest them.
II is the belief of offifficers here that
the reason for Brady's presence In
Boise may be that he has found some
track of the Essex roadster, or that
perhaps he could find some trace of
II In that city.
A brief session was held by the
county commissioners Saturday and
they authorized the expense OF bring

PARADISE VALLEY, June 90
Wednesday evening, June 18th. will
be long remembered by citizens of
Paradise Valley as the worst snow

ready in case 1t did drop lower.
The damage of the storm is hard to
estimate. The weight of the snow on
the trees broke down limbs of all
sizes throughout the entire valley
The noise of the breaking limbs was
really terrifying. especially where the
trees grew near to the dwellings and
branches fell onto roofs. doing some
damage. The wheat crops are re-

some places. II is quite study In
human nature to see the way various
people take their losses. Sometimes
it seems that those who can least af-
ford 1t are the hardest hit. and often
they are the best losers.
Haying was to begin the 18th, but
now will be delayed for at least a
week, until the hay straightens up-if
1t does. The wild hay has more
chance of coming back than the al

had almost disappeared. as the sun
shone brighter than ever, and the
birds were singing as II nothing had
happened
And so il goes! We were treated
to another rain Saturday evening.
