Re COMING IN
To HEAR CASE
Sheriff Mason Receives
Letter Telling of Ac-
tivity; Hammond Case
Believed Cause

Industrial Workers OF the World,
l. w. WIS. may be pouring into
Nampa and Caldwell .at a rapid rate
TO be present because c. w. Hammond
of Nampa, said to be member OF
that organization. is held in the coun-
y jail here charged with violation OF
the state syndicalism law. Hammond
will have hearing in the district court
Monday morning.
Information to the effect that |.
w. w. are gathering rapidly in this
territory is conveyed in a threatening
letter received Wednesday by Sheriff
o. Y. Mason. The letter addressed
to the High Sheriff. Caldwell, Idaho
and is unsigned, is believed to have
been mailed from Nampa although ii
bears both Pocateuo and Baker post
marks. The communication follows
Mr.. Sheriff, you had better act
and act quick in the town OF Nanpa.
The |. w. Ws. are all hocking in here
from all rarts of the country. They
are going to storm the town and
county il you don't turn Bill Ham
mond loose. The wobblies hold meet
ings every day in the jungles. There
are 3 delegates here now and the
litrature is thick on the streets. There
are over 4 hundred here now.
Hammond was arrested in Nampa
some time ago. He gave bond but
later his bondsmen Withdrew and
Hammond surrendered himself to the
sheriff. Then an effort was made
to secure his release on habeas corpus
but Judge Ed l.. Bryan held that
inasmuch as he Was voluntarily in
custody the court was without power
TO order his release. Habcas corpus
il was ruled, applied only to a pri-
soner involun,arily dc'aincd
About two weeks ago Hammond re-
ce;vcd severe burns from hot water
while working about the Jail and was
removed to Namra hospital for
treatment. From the Nampa nsti'u-
ton he wen, to his home without ask
ing permission OF the authorities and
was brourh, back to the Caldwell jail

Roach Nuisance Can Be
Reduced by Cleanliness

Reaches will not frequent rooms un-
less they find some valuable food ma
terial, says the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture. If such mate
rials can be kept from the living
rooms md offices, or scrupulous care
il exercised to see that no such ma
terial is placed in drawers where 1t can
leave an attractive odor or fragments
Of food, the roach nuisance can be
restricted. Thorough-going cleanli-
ness will 80 a long way toward pre-
venting serious annoyance.
The most efficient remedies for the
control Of reaches are powders, par
ticularly sodium fiuorid, liberal dust
Ing Of which about the premises will
furnish sufficient means for the
elimination Of the pest. The sodium
fluorld should be blown into the
crevices with a dust gun or blower.
The immediate effect Is to cause these
insects to come out of their retreats
and rush about more or less bllndly,
showing unmistakable signs of dis
comfort, to be followed In few hours
by their death.

Range of Reception Is
Greatest Over Water

The range Of transmitting and re-
ceiving radio messages depends upon
the nature Of the territory lying be-
tween the transmitting and the receiv-
ing stations. the greatest range for a
given power being obtained over wa
ter. Any metal, particularly iron or
steel. lying between the stations, will
cause loss of signal strength. Such
metal may either be in the form of
artificial structures such as building
framewcrks or tin roofs. or may be
in the form Of ore deposits. Some re-
gions Of the country are noted for
their poor location for radio recep-
ton. In many places 1t is possible to
receive effectively from all directions
but one. and 1t is usually found that
In this direction a metallic structure
or metal deposit is responsible for
the lack Of reception.

Good Indoor Antenna
Coiled Into Spiral

A new type Of indoor antenna which
rivals the loop can be made in a mo-
ment with nothing more than 100 feet
Of wire. The wire Is coned into. a
long spiral and suspended by one end.
Number 10 or IS insulated wire works
well. although many other kinds are
quite US good, heavier wire being. in
general, better than light wire. Wind
the coil on any convenient tube; sus-
pend it from a window and 1t will rival
an outdoor aerial. 1t cannot be count
ed upon to give results with a crystal
set, but Is practical for any kind Of
vacuum tube receiver. 1t Is almost
always better than bedsprlngs, piano
strings. or wires about the ROOM

For the radio fans who have built
single-circuit sets-and i know that
they are now wishing they had ex-
pended a little further and made the
popular hOneycomb or variometer set
this article Is written.
As you have found out. the single
circuit set while giving louder signals
also brings In interference. The main
reason you built your single-circuit set
was that 1t was inexpensive. Now
feel sure there are many fans who.
like myself. have been trying to reduce
Interference. To these fans offer
the results of my experiments. You
can alter your present single-circuit
receiver very easily by Just substitut-
ing the new tuning arrangement.
Looking at the diagram, you will no.
tice that the circuit Is almost identical
with the usual honeycomb circuit; I. e.,
primary. secondary and ticker, and
yet the whole thing is nothing more
than vario-coupler.
A description at this time is. there
fore, not out of place. A tube of in
sulating compound or cardboard 4
inches In diameter III the latter. 1t
should be well shellacked) is obtained
and some No. "a DISC. wire. The
tube will need to be about Z inches
long. Starting from one end, make a
hole for binding post u inch down
and commence winding from the post
After winding 20 turns, make another
hole for the binding post-this CON-
pletes the primary; no taps are re-
quired. Leaving Y Of an inch. make
another hole and start winding the
secondary. Wind 60 turns and tap
every tenth turn; this completes the
secondary. The ticker is the usual
wooden ball. and is wound with SO
turns of wire. 18 on each side. Now
place the tickler in the tube. The ball
should rotate between the primary and
secondary turns, and the small sketch
will further make this understood
After the ticker is placed in the tube.
