Last Monday evening the village
of Davenport was visited by dis
astrous fire that consumed two one
story buildings owned by Alex Pat
terson both Of which were 25x50.
The store has been occupied by j.
l.. Rollins, who had charge Of the
assignment stock Of Mr.. Patterson.
About O'Clock Monday evening the
store was closed, and fire extinguish-
ed. Between 8 and 10 o'clock the
building was discovered to be on
fire underneath the floor. The front
doors were broken open and the mo-
ment the air entered the entire room
burst into flames. Nothing could be
done to save the property and the
two structures were entirely con-
sumed within twenty minutes after
the first alarm. Only about 500
worth of goods were saved. The
lOss on buildings and stock amounts
to about ST, 800 with some $4,000 in
surance. The origin of the fire Is in
doubt, but 1t Is supposed that 1t ig-
nited either from a cigar stub care
lessly thrown on the floor, or a coal
from the stove. The loss NJ the es-
Enlistment will b. sOrely felt by the
resi- lents Of that neighbOrhOOd that
ha e depended largely upon it rs a
source from which to draw supplies.

The Board Of Trade held a regular
meeting at the new rooms on Main
street Monday evening and right
lively assembly itproved to he. The
attendance was large, quite a num-
Der had something to say and it was
said in a cheerful spirit. Several
new members were admitted, and
other minor business was disposed of.
The large attendance showed that
the members are interested in the
organization and are desirous Of ma
king it power In the advancement
of the interests of the place. We
believe that considerable good has
already emanated from this institu-
tiOn, and that 1t will continue to be
an active aux iary in furthering the
progress Of Spokane Fals

The reprehensible habit Of thrust
ing stove pipes through the roofs of
houses with a perfect disregard to
the safety Of the city has been car
ried so far that the town is now full
of fire traps that have only been
spared through merciful interper-
sition of providence. The Marshal
has been instructed to look into the
subject Of the construction of flues
and chimneys with the object of
throwing slight safeguard about
place destined Of any defense against
fire, and that official has been pretty
vigilant of late. One Joseph De-
Oisky put up two frames in the
place and insisted upon having the
smoke conductors crop out of the
roof with a careless disregard for
surrounding property criminal in its
He was warned to
desist and ordered to correct the
abuses as existing. Not needing the
mandate and going stu further as
If scOrning the majesty Of the law
Joseph constructed for himself
third dOmicilP, with the same index
protruding from the shingles. The
thin tube pointed its black mouth
toward heaven As II calling down
vengeance upon the head of the per-
sistent and indiscriminate mode Of
procedure. The fresh violation Of
the law caught the eye of Marshal
Hyde and Mr.. Deoisky was handed
up before the bar Of justice and COM
PEELED to pungle S5 and costs for his
failure to comply with the request
of the officer. If Joe, or any other
man repeats this work let the fining
business go merrily on. The city
cannot be jeop1rdized merely to suit
the pleasure Of a few individuals who
are too economical to construct sub
stlntial chimneys.

Next week the contractors will
break ground for a new building at
the southwest corner of Riverside
avenue and Mill street, and the work
will be crowded ahead until the ed
iticc is ready for occupancy. L. H.,
Jameson, Esq, who contributed his
share to the building prosperity of
'S3 is the gentleman who is among
the first to set the ball rolling at the
opening Of the new season. The
building about to be constructed
while Of frame will be most substan-
TALLY finished throughout. Mr.. J.
does not believe in putting up poor
improvements, and in this instance
will have Il store room that will be
equal in strength and appearance to
any frame in the city. The build
ing will be 3G feet front by 81 feet in
depth with entrances on both streets.
The front will be 26 feet in height
handsomely finished. A basement
eight feet in the clear will be under
the entire structure. The work will
probably he done by A. J. Stewart
who has had a hand in putting to-
gethera great number Of houses,
both private and public, in this city
during the past two years, and win
have much more to do the coming
summer. This addition will mate
riIlly enhance the appearance of
Riverside avenue. 1t is hut the he
ginning Ofa building epidemic that
will surpuss in extent that of last
year, when material could not be
procured fast enough to fill orders.
People were surprised to see the
rapid strides made by our city last
year, and it was wonderful when we
consider that the building excite
ment did not break out until May,
hut with three months start this
year ii would he hard to estimate the
growth that the Falls will make dur
ing 1884.

There was case of final proving
up on land before the United States
Land Office of this city this week of
peculiar interest, and one, we be-
lieve, that has no parallel in the his
tory Of the land department. The
settler in this case is an Indian
named Quin-ne-mo-se, and the quar-
ter section that he has taken up and
now owns is situated near the SpO-
kane bridge. 1t seems that Quin-
ne-mo-se was born on this piece of
land, in a log house he still occupies,
70 years ago, and according to his
statement his father built the cabin
fully 100 years ago. He has lived
constantly on the land, a sufficient
length Of time to justify his claim as
an actual resident. He has raised
crops for 28 years, and looks physic-
ally capable'of continuing on keeping
up his licks for as many more.
When the Catholic missionaries ar
rived here 80 years ago they found
Quin-ne-mO-se living in log house,
cultivating the ground and to all APP
pearances civilized being. What a
train Of reflection is awakened when
one meditates upon the changes that
this untutored son of the forest has,
witnessed during his constant So
journ at the Falls of three score years
and ten. He has seen the solitude
Of the wilderness invaded by the
whites, slowly at first until almost
all of the land marks of his child
hood have disappeared. The rail
road has pierced the solemn sanctu-
ary Of nature, and with 1t has come
hundreds of restless spirits that have
changed the face of the earth, and
where once the voice Of the tumbl-
ing waters echoed through laby-
rinth of trees it Is now dulled and
lost amidst the roar of large city.
The whiteman'S genius and the
whiteman's power has usurped the
reign of the aimless aborigines, and
the aged Indian will live to see the
time when nothing will remain to
him of the surroundings of his early
days but the memory Of the woods
and wilds, and the tales Of his youth
will he received by his listeners as
traditions of a misty past.

WE are sorry that the Cheney Sen
tineL does not secure the notice that
the importance of the sheet deserves
from the land Office at this place, but
really believe that it gets its full
share of the notices of publication.
From our acquaintance with the gen.
tleman in the office we are satisfied
that they wish to do the fair thing
by every publisher in the District.
Party organs have no weight with
them, as they aim to follow out the
letter Of the law. The fact
is, Spencer, your lines are
thrown into a very improbable pool.
You cannot hope to catch fish when
the fish refuse to bite. Look at
home before your spite turns upon
a neighhor. You are running good
local paper, deserving of hearty sup
port. We know the extent Of the
aid you receive as well as you do
yourself. Your citizens would see
you go to the wall without a helping
hand. Take cur advi e, given in
the most friendly spirit. Shake the
dust of Cheney from your feet, let
Spokane Falls severely alone as it
never harmed you dollars worth,
and'as soon as possible strike a loca-
cation where your efforts will be
appreciated.

Resolving to see the wonderful
Coeur PAlene mines for Ourself, we
secured a ticket over the Spokane
Falls and Cpur d'Alene Transporta-
tiOn Company's line, and at six in
the morning boarded the stage, (only
one, our boots were conveyed in an
other for COeur d'Alene, arriving at
ten the same morning. We found
this embryo city all life and hus:lA.
From here it is Ego rs you please"
over the old Mullan road, past Wolf
Lodge and the Mission, through the
famous Fourth Of July canyon, to
Evolution. Here transportation by
wagon and sleigh ends, and pack
trains and "FOot and Walkers Line"
begin. Fresh from the h-pOts and
f1resides Of Spokane, and tender as a
spring chicken, our party Of nine
persons, commenced the ascent of
the mOuntlin on foot over the EvO-
luton trai to the mines, the coolest
day Cf the son.
1t is toll, toll, for nine miles to the
top, one Of the best tests of endur-
ance that can be imagined. Muscles
weary, bellows needed mending,
and the perspiratiOn starts. We
look back to the bottom, and then
up to the next knob, wondering If it
will be the last. AS we near the
summit the difIicultysis increased by
the lightnesSUf the air which makes
us fairly gasp for breath. BY the
time we reached the summit our un-
der clio hing was wringing with per-
spiratiOn, and we were greatly fa-
tigued. The party which started out
together were strung apart for a
mile. On the summit the cold was
intense. and the winds fierce blasts
gave a shrlll scream as it swept
through the scattered, bare and dead
trees which looked like telegraph
poles, nearly binding us with drift
ing snow. Though the perspiration
streamed down our cheeks we had
to fight against being frost bitten.
Down the mountain nine miles
more, to Beaver Creek, across low
range a total distance Of twenty-three
miles to
EAGLE CITY,
The present metropolis Of this min
ing district. The town stands on
beautiful plateau, at the junction of
Eagle and Prichard Creeks. To the
southwark a steep and lofty noun
tain, clothed with swlying pines Of
perennial green, most shuts out the
sun. Its location and surroundings
are the very ideal o. a city of mines,
and if the district proves rich, it bids
fair to rival DeadwOOd and Leadville
in growth and prosperity, as it
now surplsses them in beauty of To-
cation. 1t is built Of log cabins and
tents, and probably contains 800 peo-
pie. Although the cold was intense,
men were working like beavers.
The mountain sides resounded with
the crash of falling timber, and slid
ing Of logs. Stores, shops, restaur-
ants, saloons and faro banks with |
big game, are numerous. Even the
"woman in scarlet" sbe, us the gUOd
hook tells US, whose footsteps take
hold on hell, are there.
Resting a day we started up Prfch-
ard Creek, determined to sec at least
one placer and one quartz cliim. |
