Peter didn't answer. A guilty. feel

question of his own. "Can you help
me out of this, Mr.. Toad ?"

Ghost Of BostonSlin,'s Hop Cat
Is Haunting Opium Warehouse
Narcotic Director Gets Complaints of Nightly Yowls
Tread of Hobnailed Boots Where No Man Walks,
Fire and Burglar Alarms That Ring Themselves

Guards at the Anchor warehouses,
231 East Forty-seventi Street, posted
there since Federal grand jury in
dicted the Anchor Warehouse Com
pany. as party to conspiracy to re-
lease imported opium illegally, have
reported that the warehouses are
haunted, it was learned yesterday.
Reports on the warehouse ghosts
have been made to Ralph Oyler, Fed
eral narcotic director; John D. Apple
by. chief of the general Federal pro-
hibition agents, and Christopher Fort
man. chief of the city prohibition
agents.
1t is inscribed in official records
that the guards at the warehouses have
heard cats yowling, heard the tread
of hob-nailed shoes at night where no
man walked and heard other strange

sounds. Tho guards have reported
also that burglar alarms and fire
alarms have been set of without ap-
parent cause.
lieve that the warehouses harbor no
unbottled spirits and that natural
causes of the phenomena will be found
eventually One Federal detective sug-
gested that the invisible cats might be
feline ghosts. Boston Slim" ne said,
who used to have an opium joint on
Second Avenue near the warehouses,
had numerous cats which always were
about fve-ninths dead as the result
of breathing opium fumes, and it was
quite likely, he thought, that these
cats, now even deader, might seek a
warehouse where so much opium had
been stored

Upper Gem district on Friday, July
II, at p. m to organize a local po-
tato growers association.
This same potato growers move
ment has already effected flourish
ing organization at Wilder with sat-

ing was held at the Grand theatre last
Wednesday. Representatives from the

met with good degree of approval on
the part of those in the attendance at
the meeting.
Another meeting will be held at
Wilder on Wednesday, July 10, at 8
p. m, to decide what method will be
used by the members of the organiza-
ton to market the 1922 potato crop
Representatives from the Boise office
of the American Fruit Growers ex-
change will be present at the above
announced meetings to explain their
marketing system and other marketing
plans and policies will be presented
all of which to be based on pric,
fixed and cash payments at local ship
ping points. The object is to establish
a living uniform price turnout thu
early potato points, and that cost o
transportation and reasonable handl
ing charge shall determine the selling
price in the consuming markets.
The potato growers of Sunny S!op'

n AMP A LEGION
MEN READY To
MEET VETERANS
Convention Plans Com
pleted; An Entertaining
Program Arranged for
Idaho Legionaires.

NAMPA-"Hey, Buddie, got your
kit bag packed?'
This is the question that ex-service
men all over Idaho are asking of one
another this week.
With the opening date of the Am
erican Legion's annual convention only
a few days away, every member of
the Idaho department is turning his
eyes toward Nampa, where the open
ing gun of the big reunion will be
fired Thursday morning, July q. For
three days the Legionaires will own
the city.
Advance reports received at state
headquarters in Boise indicate that the
roundup of ex-doughboys, gyrenes,
and gobs will be the biggest assem-
blage of World War veterans that
has yet been held in Idaho.
The call of old army friendships is
so strong in the average soldier that
it just can't be resisted, when SOL
diers' reunion is in prospect. Hence,
Legion officers say, every Legionaire
in Idaho who can possibly do so will
be in Nampa for the 27th,' 18th and
10Th Of July.
| And Nampa realizes the challenge
to its reputation for hospitality in en-
tertaining the host of ex-service men
who are expected. Committees have
been busy for weeks lining up round
of entertainments that will keep the
delegates and visitors on the go most
of their spare time.
| A parade, for which visitors are
asked to bring their old 20. u. S.
win feature the opening day or th'
convention. This will be led by Han
ford MacNider, National Commando
of the American Legion, who will al
dress public meeting immediate,
after its conclusion. Two bands hav,
been secured to furnish music for til,
parade.
1t is expected that large nunbe
Oh WIVES, tlOtHCIS Vi ga
service men will accompany their mel
folk to Nampa, for the annual con
vention of the American Legion Aux
iliary will be held simultaneously witt
the Legion convention.
| A banquet on the first night BIZ
dance on the second night, and pro
menade of the Forty and eight" OF
the closing night are some OF the en-
tertainment features that have bee
ARRANGED, not to mention baseball
tournament between teams of tn
Western Idaho league. CHAMPIONSHIP
games will be played every day of tn
convention.
/ Delegates and visitors to the con
vention will register at the Dewe
Palace hotel and there will be assign
ed to rooms.

TABLET SOUGHT
TO MARK SPOT
Ezra Meeker, Pioneer,
Wants Ward Massacre
Scene Marked.

A marker for the scene of the Ward
Massacre, Idaho history of the late
SOS, is proposed by Ezra Meeker, pat
riarch of the west, perhaps the last
survivor of the great western trek to
Oregon Immediately following the
California gold excitement. Thursday
evening, under auspices of the local
D. A. R. chapter, an open meeting will
be held at the Caldwell Comperciai
club rooms to discuss ways and means
of financing the plan. Mr. Meeker was
in Caldwell Sunday evening making
arrangements for the meeting.
The Ward massacre occurred about
IS years ago on what is now the Beck
farm about four miles east of Caldwell
and quite close to the Middleton
bridge across the Boise river. All in
dications of the attack have been OBJ
liberated by time and farming opera
tons over the scene but men are living
who we'll recall the silent mounds of
earth, marking the graves of Indian
victims and the gallows upon which
not few of the crime perpetrators
were hung after soldiers from Old
Fort Boise had captured them and
brought them back to the scene of the
massacre for execution. Pioneers be-
lieve that with but little search they
can uncover those old graves and that
the site of the massacre may yet be
definitely determined and marked.
Mr.. Meeker, who came from Ohio
west in 1853 over the Oregon Trail
has been spending the declining years
of his life in saving for posterity' some
of the romance and accurate informa-
ton of the course over which early
thousands crossed the plains. Today
Mr.. Meeker is we'll on the way to 81
years of age but despite those years
he is still vigorous and we'll able tc
carry on this work. Not many years
ago he saved the Oregon trail from
oblivion by again hooking up an OLD
prairie schooner and travelling owe
the old route. Everywhere along thu
way, particularly in the east, he wa
received with acclaim. In the west h,
devoted considerable time on that triI
to having suitable markers placed a
important points along the Old Ore
gon Trail.
The Caldwell d. A. R. chapter ha
taken considerable interest in thi
work already, A marker on Canyo
. Hill, to designate the course Of tn
Trail, was placed by this organizatio
several years ago. Erroneous infor
!. nation led to misleading it. howevel

COMMISSIONERS
TAKE NO ACTION
Take Tax Issue Under
Amusement; Grifiths
Presents Arguments

County commissioners took under
advisement the petition and arguments
presented by Henry Griffiths, local at
torney, when he appeared before the
county board Saturday asking that
the assessed valuation of Boise pro-
ject lands be reduced by the amount
of the federal lein, aggregating about
$40 per acre. held against the land.
In an exhaustive survey of the subject,
Mr.. Griffiths cited court decisions as
authority for his stand that this lein
must properly be reduced from the
assessed valuation of the property.
While the matter was taken under
advisement by the commissioners, it is
not believed that the request will NEE,
with favorable action. Members Of
the board, discussing the question
early this week, candidly expressed
the opinion that such a procedure
would be almost impossible even i
ways and means could be found fol
conducting county business for towr
tax incomes. That the federal leir
would almost eliminate Boise projec

lands from the assessment role was
cited and with this, the fact that no
funds would be available for main
tanning schools, roads and other local
improvement projects.
A complete adjustment of county
values at considerable expense and
confusion would be an inevitable re-
suit of such a plan as Mr.. Griffiths ad-
vocates, is the opinion of members
of the county board. Clarence Hill
county attorney and Walter Griffiths,
special legal advisor, were present al
the hearing in the interests of Canyon
county,

a hole in the ground leading to a food
cache by tamping the earth with a
small pebble it had seized in its man

away the honey to their own hives in
