clothes, no matter
where you go, or what makers'
name is on the garment, ask if it's
all-wool. Don't be put off without
a plain answer. The clothier may
say'"" You know me; you know I
wouldn't sell you anything that
wasn't all right;" but that doesn't
answer the question. Does it? ,
If he says "yes," you can't tell,
perhaps, whether it is all-wool or
not; he may think it is; maybe he
doesn't know.
There's only one sure way 'of
knowing what you're getting 'in
clothes this fall, aside from a che
mical test of the fabrics; and that
way is to buy, goods that are gua
ranteed By the maker to be all-wool
and all the rest that goes with it.
We offer you Hart, Schaffner &
Marx's clothes because the makers
dare to take a positive ground on
the quality question; they don't
dodge; they dont keep silent; they
are positive in their statement and
in their facts. You can depend on
them; and us.

IDAHO INDIAN" LANDS
FOR SETTLEMENT.
Cwur d'Alcne, Lcnibl anil Fort Hall
Indian Reservations Are Bring
Surveyed Preparatory to Being
Tli"roui Open to Settlement
Flnet Lands in Idaho Are Includ
ed In Reservations.
No less than threo of the largest In
dian reservations in the state of
Idaho will be thrown open for settle
ment rrobably durlr8 the ntxt vear'
or those of the Fort Hall, Lemhi and
Coeur d'Alene, according to Informa
tion obtained today from Frank Spof
ford. examiner of surveys in the sur
veyor general's department, who has
been making a tour of inspection In
the Fort Hall Indian reservation near
Poeatello, whore the government has
ordered the department to survey and
mark out the various townships pre
paratory to opening this fine tract of
land for settlement, says the Boise
Capital News.
Mr. Fpofford cannot make this
statement definite owing to the fact
that it lies entirely within the power
of the department to act on the open
ing of Indian reservations, but the in
dications point to. the fact that the
government is anxious to complete
the surveys on all these reservations
to that they can be opened as soon
as possible.
Mr. Spofford stated that he found
the survey work In the Fort Hall res
ervation very satisfactory, and as he
was all over the country Included in
this reservation, for 30 townships and
a fraction, he is In a position to tell
tome Interesting facts about the land.
The Fort Hall reservation formerly
Included The city and township of
Poeatello, but both were taken out
some time ago.
The Blackfoot and Bannock Indi
ans once the two fiercest tribes of
redskins that roamed the plains of
Idaho, own this land, having been
confined there for some years past.

ervation cut Into townships and unit
farms of 80 acres and sold to the
white men.
The government protects the Indi
ans In this segregation of this land
by allowing each one, many squaws
and children, 80 acres of land which
Is held In trust by the government for
25 years, so that It cannot be trans
ferred or sold to prospective land
Grabbers.
Each Indian or family, Is then snp
posed' to take care of the land and
farm It like the white men. There
are a number of Carlisle graduates
among both tribes and they are as
sistlng their fellows In taking up the
art of farming. The Lemhi trive has
also been transferred to this reserva
tion, where they are also to be al
lotted land.
At the present time Mr. "Spofford
states that an irrigation project is be
ing built to irrigate the land In this
project, taking water for the same
out of the Blackfoot 'river, which
flows in a sort of semicircle about the
northern boundary of the reservation.
This will give the land plenty of wa
ter. An analysis of the soil proves that
It is the richest to be found in this
state and especially adapted to the
raising of wheat. Mr. Spofford speaks
very enthusiastically of the country
and states that It Includes some of
the best land he has ever seen. He
claims that It is very similar to the
Falouse country In richness.
Surveys are also being made on
the Lemhi reservation which Is lo
cated in the central eastern part of
Lemhi county and borders on the
Montana state line'. The land in-this
reservation Is also of a very fine ag
ricultural character.
The Coeur d'Alene reservation, lo
cated In Kootenai county, is one of
the largest to be found in the west,
and when the survey is completed
here and the allotment made to the
Indians, who at present hold it, It is
proposed to throw It open for settle
ment. All of the land In the three
reservations will have to be home
steaded under the homestead laws.

Diijto Dentist Returns from New York
to Native l.untlv When Ho Hears
(ill I llml Wedded Another Man,
and Takes Horrible Means of Get
ting Revenge.
Rome, Aug. 14. For tearing out
his former sweetheart's tongue be
cause she had broken her promise
to remain faithful while he earned
enough to' support her, a . traveling
dentist named Francesco Verganl has
been drugged to deuth by a horse to
which he was tied by the by-standers
who witnessed his vengeance.
Verganl, when a youth of 19, fell
In love several years ago with Elolse
Feruuri, a girl a year his Junior and
the daughter of a prosperous farmer
of Revlgo province. The girl liked
him, but the parents objected that
he was too young and too poor to
wed. Hoping to make a fortune In
America, the young man to.ok passage
to New York, after making his sweet
heart promise to accept no husband
until he returned to claim her,
The two took their vows of faithful
ness In the village church, repeating
together as they concluded, "May I
be stricken dumb If I violate the oath
I have taken."
Fortune was slower In coming to
him In America than Verganl had
hoped, and It was eight years before
he considered himself able to support
the woman of his choice In the fash-
Ion In which he though she was es
titled.
He had found employment in tho
meantime with an itinerant dentist,
who, taking a fancy to the young Ital
Ian. finally made him his partner,
equipped him with u smattering of
dentistry und enabled to accumulate
enough to make hlm In Italy, a com
paratively rich man.
Corresponding through a mutual
friend, Verganl had heard regularly
from his betrothed during the first
six yenrs of his exile." Then the let
ters suddenly ceased. The young man
was worrltM and anxious but still con
fident that the girl remained true
to him.
Just as he was preparing to return
home, however, he learned, a month
In Boston, that she had married a
well-to-do miller In her native vil
lage. His love turned to hatred, Ver
ganl hastened at once to Italy, bought
one of the stage coaches from which
Itinerant dentistry Is practiced In that
country and drove to Monncllco, a
village near Padua, where he arrived
during fair time, gathered a crowd
and performed a numberof small
operations, meanwhile questioning his
patrons regarding his former sweet
heart. As he expected, It was not long be
fore she and her husband appeared
In the group about his booth. Himself
unrecognizable In a long beard he
wore, he beckoned to the woman, who
encouraged by her husband, agreed
to a trail of a powder with which
he had been polishing the teeth of
several of the villagers.
Catching up a pair of forceps as
she opened her lips, he seized and
tore out a large part of her tongue,
while the crowd looked on, frozen
with horror. Then as the agonized
husband dashed forward and caught
hisfulnting wife In his arms a rush
was made for the coach. The crowd's
first instinct was plainly to tear him
to pieces. As they tore him "from the
coach, however, some one shouted,
"Tie him to a horse and let It drag
him."
The suggestion met with Instant
approval. One of,the horses was un
fastened from the coach. Verganl
was bound to Its tall, and the animal,
already frightened and rearing, was
lashed into a gallop. The victim of
the mob's vengeance was dragged
nearly two miles before the runaway
aBlmal was stopped. Verganl was
then almost beyond recognition, The
object of his vengeance will probably
not recover.
