A Aline of Alum
Will Warner came in : rom Ulysses
Monday, where he has been working all
winter. He brought with him a large
piece of natural alum, which comes
from a place near Eagle rock, opposite
Fourth of July creek. Theo, (lautier
called his attention to it, having .a large
quantity of it at the way-station. Mr.
Hantier says the deposit is under a
spring of water, and that there is more
than a wagon load insight. It is pure
white and is evidently an almost pure
type of hydrous sulphate of aluminum,
which is the alum of commerce. As a
commercial factor, the value of the find
is not yet determined. Lemhi Herald.
Fraternal Brotherhood.
A lodge of the Fraternal Brotherhood
is soon to be organized in St Anthony.
Tlic charter membership so far com
prises the best business and social ele
ments of tlie community, and if the pro
gress of the lodge here i to be governed
by the material it contains, tin success
of this branch of the Fraternal Brother
hood is assured.
The order has been in existence nearly
eight years, and boasts a membership
of about 21,000. It possesses superior
merits as an insurance in case of death,
old age. disability and accident. Mu
tual improvement to the members of
the order, and protection to the mem
bers themselves, as well as to the de
pendent ones in case of death, arc the
objects of the order, and especial care
is taken to foster that spirit of fraternity
which is a vital principle in all organi
zations of a like character. The order
insures to tlie extent of $•!,000.00, and in
ease of old age or périmaient disability,
the policy becomes paid up and the full
amount of the certificate is paid to the
member in ten equal annual install
ments. Tlie policy carries an additional
benefit of $5.00 per week for each
thousand dollars of insurance, which is
paid to the member in case of accident
during a period of twelve weeks for
any one accident. Tho order is founded
upon the most modern and scientific
basis that governs fraternal insurance
and is subject to government supervis
ion. The contract it offers n equitable
and reasonable and one which commends
itself to the judgiuenl of any thought
ful person, furnishing safe insurance at
a minimum cost. It admits ladies and
gentlemen upon the same basis, which
principle renders it attractive from a
social standpoint.
Idaho Falls lodge was organized on
the Ttli of March last, and now lias a
membership of seventy-eight which is
rapidly increasing.
The lodge here will begin under tho
most favorable auspices.

Idaho State Funds.
Boise. Ida., March 20. The board of
deposits created by act of the iegisla
lature, held its first meeting today.
The board is to indicate tlie banks in
which the state funds are to be deposit
ed. Today the board did nothing more
than arrange for notifying the bankers
of the state that the board was ready to
receive bids for the money.
it is announced that a sharp legal
battle will be fought over this law, it
having been given out by friends of
State Treasurer Coffin that he will con
test if. to thi> hitter end Heretofore the
treasurer has placed the funds where he
pleased. The new law provides that
the state shall receive all interest.
The enactment of this law was one of
the most important acts of the last legis
lature and the results to be derived
from it are awaited with much interest.
State Land Can be
Leased for Grazing.
The state of Idaho owns a vast
amount of land suitable only for grazing
purposes and the state land department
wishes ranchers and stock men to know
that all unoccupied school and special
grant lands may be leased. The
public is interested in having its pos
sessions become as remunerative as pos
sible, as the rental money is apportioned
semi annually among the sea »als of
the state.
In almost every locality in the state
are school sections or other st ate lands j
that can be rented at from 10 to 25 |
cents [ier acre. Under the law one per
son cannot lease more than 040 acres, j
A lease may betaken up for any number j
of years up to five, and improvements
may be removed or sold to a successor !
at its expiration.
Applications to lease are made to the
treasurer of the county in which the!
land is located.
Rental is paid annually in advance bv
cash or by note with two approved :
signers.
Further information and copies of I
the state land laws may be obtained of |
the secretary of the state land board. j

Ma rvsvillc.
Marysville, April (i. The past week
has been one of changable weather one
or two days of pleasant spring and the
last part one of snow and blizzards.
Hay is getting rather scarce although
there is enough to pull through with
unless spring holds off longer than is
expected.
There is quite a little excitement con
cerning the railroad coining here or at
least tlie talk of it, also of the mines.
Your correspondent had a talk with
Mr. Higby ,an old prospector who has
seen the rock taken front the tunnel
four miles north of Marysville, and he
declares that it is as good as he has ever
seen, far betterthan he saw in the Te

Miss Carrie Reynolds is down with
smallpox. Mr. Looslie. the marshal,
has her isolated from the rest ami is
watching the case very closely.
The boys brought from llexhurg are
doing very well and will tin out in a few
days.
Will Hobson has hi,-, house completed
and has moved into it.
Mrs. Harris, or more familiarly known
as Aunt Lite, has gone to spend a short,
time with friends and relatives at Zion.
Mr Midlands went to Wilford the]
other day and bought a line team from
Mart Bigler. He expects to do some
thing this summer if ti e road comes
A little misunderstnailing between
Mr. Newbol ! and Walter Humphries
came near causing an arrest. The
trouble grew from a borrowed horse
which Newbold traded off. but with
the consent of Humphries to do so It
was finally settled all o k.
Uncle Sam Taylor is now able to get
around again after so long a sick spell,
bnt Aunty Taylor is now confined to
her bed with an attack of the grip.
The heavy thundering and lightening
of last Monday gave some of our people
quite a shock. Mrs. Hannah Wood was
tending to the tiro when she was shocked
and dropped the stove lifter with a
scream. Her arm was turned quite
black as if badly burned Mr. Harris
and Herman Johnson were similarly
affected. It was the worst thunder
storm ever seen here in the early spring.
(far day school is taxed to its fullest
capacity and the trustees are looking
around for another building and also a
teacher, so they can accommodate all the
students as there are too many for the
two teachers already at work here.
Our students, Joseph and Ulet.tns
Whittle and Burt Browder, have re
turned from school at Rexburg. Joe
Lambourn and Frank Hardy returned
some time ago.
Miss Alice Wood came up from St,
Anthony recently but expects to return
in the near future.
Later Miss Elsie Hawks has been en
gaged to teach a primary school in Hern
Miller's house for a three months' term.
Who says Marysville is not growing
when it takes four schools to accommo
date her best crop!
