WOOD EvILs.-Since the first of Janu-
airy the School Trustees of Phoebe have
purchased for the use of the public
schools Az cords OF wood, and on the
9Th of February all the wood had disap-
peared except about half cord, under
lock and key at the primary school. The
schools were only run during that time
six hours daily for Is days, and it is an
utter impossibility for so much wood to
have been used in that space of time,
and as the wood is not around there is
but one conclusion to arrive at-that it
has been taken away without authority.
It is said wood-thief has no conscience,
and we would judge that he hasn't by
stealing the public schools wood, and
the chances are some fair and cloudless
night he will have no stove, as he will
see it disappearing through the roof of
the house, il the "little racket" the
Trustees have on hand only works cor
rectly.
GAMEs.-Tuesday evening pool game
ran all night at Goediecke & Co. Is saloon
and poker game did likewise at Brown
& Sparks saloon. both games running
until noon the following day. These lit
tie incidents would leave an outsider to
think the camp pretty lively, but the
poker game was caused by some of our
married friends having escaped from the
matrimonial yoke for one night only.
