A letter from Lardo dated Sept. 3d, says there is some excitement there, caused by settlers of Long Valley trying to drive the sheep men out of the country. Nine of the “natives” waited on a herder who is in charge of the sheep of Mr. Butterfield, of Weiser, on the night of the 2d and gave him 24 hours to leave the valley, but on account of his being alone and without horses, they prolonged the time to two days. The letter indicates that subsequent proceedings were liable to be of a very interesting character.

R. Bolton since he was 18 months old, was kidnapped Monday morning while on his way to school. It is alleged the mother of the child, who is separated from the childs father and now living with another man, took the child. It is also alleged the mother has no home, but is moving from place to place. A warrant has been issued for the arrest of the mother, but since the grandparents have no papers to show their authority for holding the child there is some doubt as to the recovery of the missing boy.

The home of Mr. and Mrs. C. Q. Haines, six miles south of Payette, was the scene of a happy wedding last Sunday afternoon, at which time their eldest daughter, Margaret and W. J. A. McVeaty of Boise, were joined in the bonds of holy matrimony by Rev. A. G. Hunt, pastor of the First Presbyterian church of Payette. Only the relatives and a few friends of the contracting parties were present. After partaking of a delightful wedding dinner the bride and groom, accompanied by some of their friends, drove to Payette where Mr. and Mrs. McVeaty took the train for Boise which is to be their home. They were attended by a jolly crowd at the station who gave them a royal send-off with a perfect shower of rice, old slippers and good-wishes as the train bore them away on the beginning of life’s new journey. Mr. McVeaty is one of the most popular members of the Statesman’s “art preservative” force, and while it is not easy to overlook the fact that he has robbed a Payette Valley home of one of its richest treasures, we extend congratulations and wish the bride and groom long years of true happiness.

A St. Paul, Minn., dispatch of the 21st says: The homeseekers’ half-fare rate on the trans-continental lines went into effect today. The Northern Pacific and the Great Northern were compelled to double their facilities in order to handle the crowd. Not less than 5000 people took advantage of low rates and the Great Northern sent out an extra train at noon while the Northern Pacific was compelled to add a second section to its through trains. The railroad officials report that many of the travelers bought only one way tickets, which is taken as an indication of an intention to locate permanently in the west.

He was burning trash along the ditch and when an electric power line pole caught fire he went to the ditch and brought a bucket of water with which to extinguish the flames. In throwing the water against the pole contact was formed, as water is a conductor, and the current passed through his body killing him instantly. The hand which held the water bucket and one of his heels, in which there were heavy nails, were burned, showing that the current passed through the body from the hand to the foot. His helper was near by and saw the accident and his body fall, but when he reached the unfortunate man life was extinct. Mr. Darnell had been a ditch rider on this irrigation system which carries water past New Plymouth to Fruitland and was a faithful worker and a good, clean citizen. The suddenness of his death was a great shock to everybody as he was well known and highly respected.
