Sometime ago a tract of land Of
100 acres in close proximity to the
city, lying on the north side Of the
river was bonded to +. I. Clarke,
one Of our most active real estate
agents by c. ID. Ide, and few days
since Mr.. Clarke sold the entire
piece to f. d. Chamberlain, recently
from Boston, for the comfortable
sum Of $4,000. Mr. c. has been lin
gering about the town for sometime
with his eyes open for a good buy.
He bad charge of some capital Of
friends at the East, who desired to
invest in this city, and caught up
this offer as soon as all necessary ar
rangements could be made. As the
land is within a short distance Of the
new POst-street bridge tits brought
in easy reach of the business part Of
the city. Mr.. Chamberlain does not
propose to allow his land to lay idle.
In the spring number Of substan-
tial dwellings will he run up, the
tract laid out as an addition to the
city and the lots be put upon the
market. 1t is a very desirable loca-
tion and by next fall we expect a
large number of houses will be built
on that side of the river, so many
indeed as to justify the residents
in daublng their village North Spo-
kane.

wednesday morning Thos. Dallam,
a younger brother Of the proprietor
Of the REVIEW, was seriously injured
by the cars between Rathdrum and
Spokane Falls The first intimation
we had of the accident was brought
to us at 3 O'Clock Wednesday morn
ing, when the bruised and lacerated
youth was brought in on the passen-
ger train going west. The young man
was taken to DIR. J. NJ. Morgan's office,
and when sufficiently recovered from
the shock attending the injuries, he
was put under the influence of anaes-
thetics, his wounds were examined,
and his feet operated upon by Drs.
Morgan, Whetham and Gibson. His
feet and knees were badly cut and
torn, bnt the surgeons Will be able to
save the limbs if no unforeseen change
takes place. The hurts were very
severe and in most cases would result
seriously, but we hope that a sound
constitution, great vitality and un-
flinching nerve will save the youth.
The circumstance is exceedingly
painful to us, as when we last saw
him, eight or nine years ago, he was
almost a mere child, and we had no
idea that he was anywhere in tins
country, or had any intention Of
visiting us.
n. B,-Since the above was writ
ten that greatly dreaded change came
and the spirit Of Thomas Dallam has
been summoned to the dread un-
known. All that medical skill could
do~was done to avert that which was
most feared, but the fiat had gone
forth and he was beyond the aid Of
mortal man. He died Friday even
ing, after hours Of suffering.

room just being completed by DIR.
Burch, on Howard street, arrived at

ever been consigned to the northwest.
The new firm expect to open out
on the 10th of October. If any reli-
ance can be placed in the time-card
on the road, the stock will reach here
next Tuesday. Mr.. Crane has made
a great many friends during his brief
sojOurn here, who will be glad to see
,him make his enterprise win. He
has had the necessary experience to
understand how to manage the bust
ness he has undertaken, and, as he
proposes to sell low, will readily build
up trade. lie will handle the Gar
land stove, and a paper speaking o.
that article says: "The most mag
niiiccnt and perfect line Of cooking
and heating stoves in the world is
the line Of Garland stoves and
ranges" made by the Michigan Stove
Company. The line embraces every
thing made in this class Of goods, and
to have "Garland" is to have the
best article Of its kind that money

While Receiver Wilson, Register
Armstrong and their able corps Of
aids and assistants may go to work
Monday, yet their new Office is not
quite ready for occupancy. Mr.. Will
son purchased the west building in
the Central Block, and is having the
rear Of the upper floor fitted up for
the Land Office. That gentleman
has studied to make the new office a
convenient one for those vino trans
act business at it, as well as for him
self. The Office proper is roomy and
easy Of access. OFF of the main room
is a smaller apartment for private
confab. The Office is well lighted
both by large windows at the rear
and a sky-light. The floor is strong
ly braced and built to stay. The
5000 pound safe was put in place
this week, and all that is wanting
now is the counters, the documents
and the people to have things in run
ming order, very striking essentials.
The plastering and painting is not
quite finished, but by the time an
other week rolls round everything
will be in running order. In the
front part Of the tuilding, up stairs,
are two suites Of offices. These have
been constructed with the aim of
making them convenient to the.ten-
ents. We understand that these
rooms have already been engaged.
The ground floor is a fine large store
room. There has been several appli-
cations for this, and has been rented,
we believe, to real estate firm, We
expect to sec this and the balance Of
the divisions in Central Block the
scene Of active business before the
expiration Of another month.

The reception rendered to Rev. T.
G.. Watson, pastor of the Presbyterian
Church, and his amaible lady, who
has just joined the reverend gentle
man in this frontier city, that took
place in CannOn's Hall, Wednesday
evening, was one Of the most brilliant
social gatherings known in the his
tory of Spokane. The elegant little
hall was comfortably filed with ladies
and gentlemen. The forepart of the
evening was spent in conversation,
interspersed with vocal and instru-
mental music. The Misses Gibson
played a difficult duett, the excellent
execution Of which was deservedly
applauded. Dr. c. $. Pentield sang
a solo in fine form, and a duett by
DIR. Penfeld and Mrs. T. J. Webster
was very prettily rendered. a solo
by Mrs. Z. J. Webster who has a
strong, pure voice, was sung with
much effect. Miss Cannon also favor
ed the audience with instrumental
music. At 10 O'Clock refreshments,
that had been prepared by the ladies',
were served to the company. The re-
ception broke upat seasonable hour,

1t is our painful duty this week to
chronicle the demise of Mrs. Sarah
A. Bradshaw, wife Of our estimable
townsman, Col. c. G. Bradshaw, who
died in this city last Monday morn
ing, Sept. 9th, after a lingering
illness.
Mrs. Bradshaw's maiden name was
Sargent, and she was native Of Ill
inois, where she was born in 1889
The lady never enjoyed robust
health, and her constitution was en-
tircly. broken down by severe sick
ness several years ago, being a con-
frmed invalid ever since. The sole
reason for the removal Of the family
to this territory was the hopes that
the change Of climate might prove
beneficial. Upon her arrival in July
Of this year she improved to a re-
markable extent, but the effort of
nature was but mOmentary, and the
seeds Of disease were too deeply
rooted to he overcome even by the
pure atmosphere Of this section.
She was married to Col. Bradshaw
in Coles county, Ills, in November,
1867, and removed TO Bloomington,
where they resided up to the time Of
the removal Of the family to the
Northwest. The fruits Of the union
were four children, Cornelia Ger
trudc, who was married to Mr.. Cor
don, and resides in Rochester, n. Y,
Loulou, aged 10, Jessie, aged 10, and
boy, who preceded the mother
across tie dark river at the age Of
years. She also has brother in
this county, Mr.. James Sargent.
Mrs. Bradshaw Joined the NJ. +.
Church at an early age, and her life,
up to the last moments when her
mind was upen the celestial king
dom, has been that Of the highest
type Of the pure and devout Chris
tian. Although it was her lot to
pass the major portion Of her days in
afiliction, yet she bore up under her
suffcrings with patience and forti-
tude beautiful in its simplicity. She
was a kind and sympathetic neigh
Dor, an aflectionate and self-sacrific-
ing mother and a loving and devoted
wife. She instilled the purity and
perfection Of her life in her children,
and made home bright and happy
for her family. Her cheerful smile
and encouraging and kindly voice
is now Of the past, but the memory
Of them live in the hearts of the
father and the motherless. We sin
cerely sympathize with them in the
irreparahle loss, but words of kind
ness eannot fill the void, or erase that
deeply seated pain which none can
understand but those who have bent
beneath a similar blow. May God
grant the wldower and the orphans
that solace that can come from no
human source.
The funeral ceremonies took place
at the residence of Col. Bradshaw,
Tuesday afternoon. Rev. T. G. Wat
son delivered an effecting eulogy,
speaking in touching terms of the
life Of the deceased. Many Of the
friends Of the family followed the
remains TO the cemetery.

Michael Jordon, a stranger who
was recently employed by Jas. Roe
as hOstler in his stables, met with a
singular and serious accident Thurs
day evening about 7 O'clock. lie
was leading horse into the stable,
carrying a lantern in his other hand.
The animal took fright, presumably
from a fash Of light, and rearing up
threw Jordon with great violence
against a stall. His forehead struck
the edge of the stall and the entire
scalp, from the front to the rear was
peeled back, leaving the bone bare,
making Il CHASTITY hurt. DIR. G. S.
Allison and DIR. J. Whetham dressed
the injuries, and will bring Mr.. Jor-
don out of the scrape in perfect con-
dition. The wounded man is get

The Kittitas Locdlizer says: Every
week develops some new discoveries
in the mineral district northwest of
this place, in the extensive mineral
belt about the head waters of the
Cle-el-um and other tributaries OF the
Yakima River. This time we have
to record the discovery of a valuable
silver lode on the Catches, just above
the Cle-el-um. We have a specimen
Of tho ore that we think Is very rich,
and is, perhaps, the very best that
has been brought to public notice.
The discoverers are John Davis, D..
Wheaton, l.. Cassidy, John Z. Voice,
and Leroy Giham. They went FIVE
or six days ago to Catches Lake, and
in their prospecting they discovered
what is thought to be silver. 1t Is
found, however, to bea genuine mine
Of plumbago, with a small per cent.
Of silver, The plumbago in places is
soft and can be spaded out like peat.
1t is perfectly pure, and some Of it
resembles hornblende. 1t is in flakes,
and will mark like a lead pencil on
paper, It is difficult to tell what it
iswOrth on the coast; perhaps, several
hundred dollars a ton. A man could
get out several tons a day.

in shape some time. The turbine
water wheel was placed in position
some time ago, and the machinery
for grinding arrived this week and
is now being set up. 1t will only be
a few days until the Echo Mill will

The residents Of Spokane Falls are
called upon to meet this afternoon
and vote upon the proposition Of flevy-
ing a special tax of $500 for the pur-
pose Of furnishing the new school
building and supplying a fund for
maintaining the schools. 1t is hardly
necessary to point out to our intelli-
gent citizens the necessity Of voting
this tax. 1t is the duty Of every man
in the community, whether he is or
Is not the head of family, to vote in
favor Of the tax. The great bulwark
Of this county is its public schools,
and the freedom Of education to every
child therein, and the educational
institutions should bemaintained and
literally supported. We have no
fears that the proposition will fail to
meet the appreciation Of all. Besides
its many other attractions Spokane
Falls will soon be able to boast Of
better educational facilities than any
town or city in the Territory, and
that fact will be as great a factor in
the growth Of the place as any OF its
industrial superiorities. Let the tax
be levied, and let our schools take
rank with the best in the land.
