A COwardIy Murder.

On the oath day of last month, Mr..
John Frazier, partner of II. Patter-
son, in the stock business, near Bad
ger Mount lin, left Sprague with their
supplies for their camp, since which
time nothing has been heard from
him, and his sudden disappearance
remained a profound mystery to
every one until last week., when a
clue was found that explained it aE.
We give the following facts as gath
cred from d 'ffe!elt sources and are
well authenticated. Mr.. Frazier, after
leaving Sprague, concluded to go to
Spokane Falls with some horses, and
took with him one of Moses good
Indians to assist him across the cOun-
try. 1t transpires that they camped
together the first night out, when tho
Indian killed Frazier and took his
horses, blankets and effects, and one
hundred dollars in money. Last week
a horse was found among the "pot
holes" with saddle hanging to its
body. Farther search resulted in
finding the remaining two horses in
the vicinity. a young Indian lad,
who was with the party, told them
that the Indian had murdered Frazier
and thrown the bodylintO Moses lake,
where it was found. HealsO led them
to where they could find the murder
er after making them promise that
he had nothing to do with disclosing
him. As near as we can learn, the
Indian has been found and dealt with

or that give any outward evidence of

While those who are footloose, GU,

Size in the Fast TrOtter.

st. Julien is full sixteen hands high.
and Maud S is only shade less Much
diversity of optimism has existed among
horsemen as to the best height of the
/ trotting horse for both speed and en-
durance combined. The late Hiram
| Woodruff considered fifteen hands two
inches as the best type, and cited the
swift and game mare, Peerless, as an
instance of the correct model. But,
since his day, the trotting horse has i'm
proved in form as well as in speed.
| Certain It is that, to-day, the great per-
formers are large horses. Not only are
Maud S and ST. Julien sixteen hands
high; but Rarus overtops them, and
Edwin Forrest and Trinket and Cling
stone and Edwin Thorne and Black
Cloud and Jerome Eddy and Smuggler
raise the standard TO the same height.
They are all large horses. Occasion
ally a grand performer Is small, like
| Goldsmith Maid and Hopeful, but their
want Of size is painful disparagement
to their will-power when larger horse
| of equal speed is matched against
them. This was apparent every time

mighty mare. Lady Thorne, overhauled

Rarus could beat 2:20 in public or
private trials The trotting horse may
be a grand performer, and still be
small, but, other things being equal, he
will be grander performer if he
possesses greater size. This assertion
is made in the face of the fact that
Flora Temple, for years the Queen of
the turf, was only fourteen hands and
three-quarters high, and Goldsmith
Maid was only two inches taller. The
large horses are SO greatly in the ma
jority that these two instances are really
exceptions to the rule. The large
horse has SO much greater sweep and
power of stride. Moreover, he has so
much more steadiness of purpose that
he can literally wear out his smaller
rivals by the very excess of his physi-
que. So very positive has this conYic-
ton become among hersemen, that
they do not expect more than a second
class performer from small trotter.

make it pan out $4,000. We must be
very careful, however, in buying these
burls. Their value is often greatly les
sened by the existence of hollows, some
times in the very heart of the wood,
| the result of decay or malformation.
These hollow places are filled up by
| fraudulent dealers with a substance
| that is made to resemble the genuine
wood, and they will then sell the burls
as sound. Manure, compressed to the
requisite degree or hardness, is much
used for this purpose. Worse even
than this is the practice to which such
knaves sometimes resort of placing
stones in the hollows to increase the
weight, for the burls, as I have already
intimated, are sold by the pound. This
fraud is liable to cause serious damage
to the valuable knives that are used in
cutting the veneers. -
| "How about our native woods? Do
you deal much in them?"
ayes, to some extent; but for choice
cabinet work the foreign woods are, of
course, more highly priced. Burls in
ash and maple are plentiful and cheap,
selling for two to four cents a pound.
Black walnut burls command higher
price--ten to twelve cents a pound =
but they are getting scarce. Yes, the
demand for choice cabinet woods is
constantly increasing. In the houses
that the wealthy are now putting UP,
the fine woodwork now constitutes a
large item in theexpenditure. Look at
these veneers for table-eovers. These
handsome designs and this artistic
ornamentation are all mosaic work,
made by piecing together small frag-
ments of wood of different colors, or in
sorting them in the body of the large
sheet that constitutes the background
70 one not acquainted with this work it
would look. like drawing on wood; but
turn the sheet over and you see the lines
run through, You can get these veneers
for fine tables at almost any cost. You
can get one as low as twenty-five dollars
and you can have designs put together
at as high a price as you may care to
pay. ~
Are there many dealers of such
woods in the United States?'-
The number is very small, but the
business is large and the competition
keen. One of our firm makes frequent
trips to Central America and elsewhere
to look for rare specimens of cabinet
wood. These trips have their attrac-
tons, but they are not infrequently ac-
companied by hardships and danger. -

Nanny's Chocolate Creams.

"Dear me- said Cousin Prue John-
son, yawning, sTd give half dollar for
paper of chocolate creams"
Cousin Prue wasn't very old Young
lady, and she had a sweet tooth. Nanny
looked up quickly from the corner Of
the lounge where she was sorting oyer
her last years magazines.
''Will you. honest, Cousin Prue?'
she asked; twill you give me fifty cents
for fifty creams?h
Yes said Cousin Prue, for
twenty-five But it's showing too hard
to 60 out, DEAR
Nanny laughed brightly, and ran up
to her mothers room; because the frs
step was always to ask mamma. In q
minute she was down again with long
apron on that reached from her chin to
her toes. She went straight into the
kitchen, and this is what she did there:
She mixed half-a-cupful of cream with
two eupfuls of sugar, and boiled the
whole for five minutes. Then she took
it off the stove and put in just tea
spoonful of lemon and stirred it until it
began to get white and creamy.
1t was in the very first place that she
fllled the big platter with corn-starchs
and pressed it full of little hollows as
thick as they could be, with her new
silver thimble. Then she filed the little
hollows with the cream.
''Oh, goodr' she cried, '1've got
sixty-nine!'
But they weren't chocolate creams
yet, you know-1iot until Nanny had
cut up a piece of chocolate and melted
it in saucer, without putting in any
water, over the tea-kettle. Then she
rolled the sixty-nine sugar thimbles in
the melted chocolate and set them away
to harden
Half an hour afterward she carried
fifty of them to Cousin Prue johnson,
who tasted very gingerly at first.
''Why, they're delicious. she cried,
then. You never, never made them
yourself, Nanny Grover!'
"Yes'm, I did, said Nanny. 'Any.
body can that's a mind to, and it's
lovely fun.
That's what Nanny said about 1t; and
you never guess that she gave her
fifty cents to little Joe Spooner to buy q
chicken for Joe and his mother and his
sister Dolly Youths CoaapalstOn.

Capture Of . Family Of Bears.

One day last week, while Melvin
Gardner, who resides at the mouth Of
Spring Creek, was Walking through the
woods about mile from his house, he
saw a bear sitting behind log looking
at him. Taking good aim, he knocked
her over with bullet from his trustv
rifle. Before he had time to observe
the effect of his shot, he saw cub bear
scampering of. Dropping his rifle. he
ran after 1t, and soon had It bythe back
OF the neck. just as he caught it he saw
another cub attempting to climb a tree
near by. Though encountered by the
cub he had just captured, he ran after
the second one, and caught it by the
neck just as it got fairly started up the
tree. With both hands full of bear. he
started on run for his house, the cubs
doing their level best to get away. Be-
lore he reached home his shirt-sleeves
were in shreds. Aiming himself with
his axe, he started back, accompanied
by his son, to look after the mother of
the cubs. AS they neared the spot, what
was their surprise to see another cub
making for tree. They waited pa
flently for two hours, and, as a last re-
sort, cut the tree down and secured
the third cub, but it was killed by the
fall. The old bear was found stone
dead. the bullet having crushed through
her brain. She was monster.-Ek
