ThompHon of tho Palo Alto Stock company, for $40,000, 321 acres of finely improved land situated In the famous Ten-Mile bottom and lo cated 10 miles from this city, says the Boise Cnpltal News. This ranch,. which Is already known throughout the country as one of the bent In tho riolso valley.

The Improvement of this large ranch began five years ago and Mr, Cole has spent a great many thousand dollars In fencing, buildings and tilling the soil, until today It stands as an em blem of what Irrigation and work will do In the Gem state, and was picked out by Mr. Thompson ns one of the flnet ranches In the northwest forJ his Imported fancy stork. Horse Disease Stops Work. A large crew of men and 180 head of horses engaged by the Utah Con struction company excavating canals on the Payette-Boise project eight miles from Nam pa, ' was forced to abandon work temporarily In the lat ter part of last week and the first of this owing to the fact that the entire band of horses were placed under quarantine for contagious disease which Is alleged to have developed In one of tho horses, the animal being shot by the order of State Veterinary Surgeon O.

Annual Relay Kuc-es of University of Pennsylvania AOtract Athlete From Many State University of Mli'higuii Hope to Win Harvard, Princeton, Cornell and Yale n Uc l.lxL Philadelphia, April 24. Incoming trains today arc bringing to Philadel phia the advance guard of the great concourse of athletes who will parti cipate in the 14th annuul relay races of the University of Pennsylvania, to be held on Franklin Field tomorrow. Tomorrow's carnival gives promise of eclipsing all that have gone before, and will be doubly Important, inas much as it will enable followers of amateur athletics to gain a real line on the London Olympic possibilities of the college men. To promise the beet yet is saying much, for In the last 10 years the relay races have been the scene of more hard, fast and high class racing than any other set of Bports. All the best men of the last decade have been tried out on Franklin Field. All the great hurdlers from Kranzllen to Garrells, all the fast sprinters from Wefers and Duffy to Cartmeil, scorea of fast quarter-mllcrs, the best mllers, shot putters, high Jumpers, etc., have all been seen In competition at these sports. Teams or Individual athletes will be on hand from all sections of the coun try, and It la more than probable that some new marks will be reached. This is almost to be looked for in the pole vault, the high Jump and the discus. Forty-nine universities and colle ges have entered teams in tomorrow's great tournament. Yale, Harvard, Princeton and Cornell head the east ern list, while Michigan. St. Louis University and Illinois State college will sond runners'from the west, and even Carlisle Indiana will be repre sented. Pennsylvania has entered teams In all races. The three races to determine the college championship of America will be the features of the carnival. One race will be for a distance of a mile, each man to run a quarter mile. The second race will be a four-mile race, tach man to run a mile, and the third race will be a two-mile event, each man to run a half mile. A complete list of the colleges and universities entered Is as follows: Harvard, Princeton, Cornell, Yale Mlchlgan, Ijehlgh, Swafthmore, Franklin and Marshall, Temple col ipire Muhlenburg college, Pennsyl vania State college, Westminster Wesleyan, Gettysburg, Wellington and Lee, Fordham, Maryland Agricul tural, Philadelphia College of Osteo pathy, Delaware, St. John's Hahne mann Medical, Carnegie', Haverford, Art and Textile School, Jefferson Med ical, Johns Hopkins, Medlco-Chlrur-gleal, New York University, Galladuet, Dickinson, Lafayette, Dartmouth, Car lisle Indian school, Ohio State Col lege, Rutgers, Washington and Jeffer BIG ATHLETIC VENT 10MM0W have tho animal dispatched and also Informed the foremun In charge of tho crew that the other horses would have to be quarantined and this was done forcing tho crew out of work as they could do nothing without the horses. It Is expected some action will be taken to raise the quarantine so that operations can be resumed. The Utah Construction company ha several large crews of r.en and teams engaged on Irrigation projects In this state and eastern Oregon, but this Is the first time that any of the animals have been quarantined for disease. Hniigcfl Need Rain. Jordon valley Is one of the richest sections of Malheur county, and the residences on the ranches speak pros perity on every turn. The farms are large, well Improved and show thrift. There Is a natural hot well here, with very strong me dicinal properties that is reported to be one of the best In the country. The town is located southeast of a rocky bluff that breaks the dullness of a level landscape scenery and makes the place rather picturesque. There are some nice residences in the place. It is a dry year, and like the rest of the country, the stock will suffer If there la not more rain. Those ranches that depend on water from the lakes will be short of crops this year if rain doe not appear shortly. This is reported to be the dryest season we have had for two years. Jordan valley letter. Old Coin Waking Up. The fact that Al Bettlngen has be come owner of one of those nasty new J 10 gold pieces has brought to light numerous old coins. P. S. Plummer Ik showing a $20 gold piece that had been minted in 1850 and was in good condition. This coin like the new $10 did not have' the words "In God We Trust" stamped on Its face. Then J. B. Golt pops up with a 60-cent silver piece that was minted in 1808. This piece Is the same size as the late coins and bore only 13 stars, repre senting the original New England states. The edges were not milled, but have what Is supposed to be small stars around It. Now Is a good chance for some of the many coin collectors to show yp with something In this line and share in the glory. Dalles Optimist. son, Columbia University, St. Loult University.

Michigan Hopes to Win. Ann Arhor. Mich.. April 24. Mich igan athletes who wll participate In the relay carnival at the University of Pennsylvania tomorrow were given a great send-off by their fellow stu dents, and there Is every confidence that the Ann Arbor boys will again romp home with the four-mile relay championship. The Wolverines are stronger than ever this year, and ex tinct to show their eastern competi tors a few new tricks in-amateur ath letics. Michigan, who gave Pennsyl vania such a hard run for first In the Inter-colleglates last spring, has for the last five years made a trip to the rrlav names, and as many times as she went east she returned west as champion in the four-mile relay event as well as winning places In some of the other open events.
