Our heavy weight friend John
Todd, manager Of The Milwaukee
beer bOttling establishment, met
with a serious accident Sunday while
driving home from Medical Lake.
He was driving behind a couple Of
unruly animals, and they took fright
at something along the road. In
their efforts to run away the tongue
Of the wagon became detached from
the neck yoke, and Mr.. Todd was
thrown forward between the horses.
In that precariOus position he man
aged to so turn the frightened ami
mails that they ran into large tree.
Todd was jammed in between the
wagon and obstruction sustaining a
number Of bruises along the right
side and hip. He managed to eXtri-
cate himself from the wreck and rode
one Of the horses home, the other dis
appearing entirely. 1t was feared
that he had sustained a fracture OF
the ribs, but we are glad to state that
his injuries are confined to bruises,
which, however, were severe enough
to lay him up for number OF days.

The board Of trade is an Organiza-
tion In which every business house
should be represented. 1t is factor
far more potent in a beneficial point
OF view, than the outsider has any
idea Of. Its sessions are always more
or less interesting, and those who
are outside the pale Of the organlza-
tion would be surprised to learn Of
the large amount Of good work 1t al
ways succeeds in accomplishing dur.
ing the year. Before Its meetings
are laid subjects Of grave importance
to every free-holder In the place, and
the body not only discusses questions
that arise in regard to our business
interests, but II sets on foot projects
that tend to advance the prosperity
of the city. Its safe tn say that the
board oftrade OF this place has had a
most excellent influence during the
past year. and, undo lls fostering
care, schemes have been set on foot
and carried out that have resulted In
permanent benefit 10 Spokane Falls
Under the direction Of this board,
roads leading out Of the city into the
surrounding country have been pro-
jected and constructed, and other
roads heretofore almost impossible
have been greatly improved. A
year ago there was not town on the
coast so unfortunate in its means Of
egress and ingress 10 and from the
country. During the past summer
over five thousand dollars have been
spent by Spokane Fails in improv-
ing the roads to the north, east,
south and west and now farmers find
the best roads to travel over. are
those leading into this city. Here
tofore the wagon road has been
In order to further some
greater project, but our people have
awakened and are alive to the i'm
portance Of keeping up communica-
tions with the country, and with
that object In view have contributed
literally to building up new and i'm
proving old highways. Almost every
venture that has for its object the
development and good Of the place
is brought up before the board Of
trade, there freely investigated, and
plans Of procedure decided upon.
1t is an institution that should flour
ish in our midst, and the name Of
every business man should be fouEd

Monday eve the residence of J.
II. Bishop, Esq, south Of the rail-
road, had a narrow escape from des-
tructlon by flre. The six-year-Old
child of Mr.. Bishop was sitting in a
rocking chair when one Of the rock
ers caught under the center table,
upon which was a lamp, upsetting
it. The oil ignited, and the flames
caughta large curtain. Mrs. Bishop,
although In poor health, seized some
clothing and had almost smothered
the flames when a number Of neigh
bora, attracted by the cries Of fire
from the child, appeared on the
scene. In tearing down the curtain
Mrs. Bishop had one Of her arms
considerably burned. The carpet
was ruined, the wood work about
the window charred, and the large
panes OF glass were broken by the
heat. It was a narrow escape and
the building was only saved through
the presence Of mind OF Mrs. Bishop.

On account Of the delay in the ar
rival of the machine used in tapping
the water mains for the purpose Of
running supply pipes into buildings,
there has been no work Of the kind
done until within the past two days
Messrs ]. II. Boyd & Co. early last
fall sent east for piping and the
necessary apparatus for making con-
nections and carrying on the plumb
ing business In conjunction with
their hardware establishment, and
are now in a position to fill orders
for putting in water, and doing a
good job. They have just put water
pipes in tine California brewery and
have a large number Of orders to fill
Immediately. The work will be
pushed ahead as long as the nature
Of the weather will permit, and
should the winter prove an open one
a force Of men will be kept busy by
this firm for several months. The
house has secured the services Of an
experienced plumber and this ad-
vantage, with the instruments they
have to work with, enables them to
warrant all the work they may do in
that line. Boyd & Co. will fnd
plumbing an important feature ol
their business, as about every prop
erty owner in the vicinity Of the
mains will want a supply during the
next twelve months.

Recording the developments in
the Herbert Clark disappearance the !
Colfax Gazette declares that Clark !
hsd commenced a systematic course
OF robbery some time in July. He
had taken money, secreted it and
covered up his dishonesty by false
entries and charges on the books 80
skillfuny made as 10 battle detection
for some tim0 after his disappear
ance. AT one time he chSrged some
seven thousand dollars to Baker &
Boyer, Of Walla Walla, making away
with this large sum at once, and on
frequent occasions he had charged
lesser sums to various parties and ap-
propriated the moneys 50 charged to
his own use. On the evening before
his disappearance he attended the
skating rink with his family, con-
ducting himself as usual and making
no mistake which would lead TO the
slightest suspicion Of the deep game
he was playing. The only circum-
stance which was at all unusual was
the fact that after the sport at the
rink was done Clark took his partner,
Mr.. Baker, into the bank and re-
quested him TO take down the COM
bination Of the safe on a piece Of
paper, and also to count the money
and see that 1t corresponded with
the books. He had never done this
before when going away. Clark was
interested heavily in Moscow real
estate and had the railroad been
completed to Moscow last summer,
as anticipated, he would have cleared
great deal Of money, but recent
events demonstrate that he had no
Intention Of allowing such a small
thing as dull times to interfere with
his sprosperity. There is no truth in
the statement that the threatened ar
rival OF a FIRST wife was the cause Of
his disappearance, and the greatest
wrong done by Clark was the deser-
tion Of his conAding wife and family.

TTacoma Ledger
A spicy and entertaining cores
pondenee for the people of this re-
gion has passed between Cyrus w.
Field, the great railroad and tele-
graph magnate, and Horace White,
the editor Of the New York Post and
for a long time treasurer Of the .. R.
& n. company. This was published
in the Chicago Inter Ocean and COW
cred Eve solid columns Of that paper.
Mr.. Field very distinctly charges
that during the latter part Of Carl
schurz' administration as secretary
Of the interior, and under Mr.. Hayes,
the said Carl Schurz, who had been
the paid Orator Puff Of every party
and faction, was In the employ Of
Henry Willard, the president OF the
Northern Pacific, that Willard and
White bought out the Post and put
schurz in as editor, after the latter
went out Of ofiiee, 10 boom the North
ern Pacific, the o. R. & n. and other
4sVfllards," !" and that this was in pay
lnent for Secretary Schurz' decisions
in favor Of the railroad company.
Mr. Field further charges, in this
epistolary revelation, that Willard,
schurE and Godkin, another Post ed
itor, left White behind to sell stock
while they went west TO "drive the
golden spike;" that Willard, as pres
dent, and White as treasurer Of the
OR AN. road, issued and divided
between themselves and associates
5000, 900 more stock than was neces-
sary to build the road, for which
issue this company received water"
that while Willard and White were
in oiice they permitted the eeompany
to charge Itself higher rates for car
rying It's own constructing material
than Is charged Others for like ser
vice, thus making fctieioOs earn
fngs on which TO declare dividends.
This letter also AYERS that White, as
treasurer Of the o. R. q N. Co,
osned Willard a large sum Of the
company's money without security,
and that afterwards Mrs. Willard
voluntarily gave up her private prop
erty to secure the loan. Mr. Field
after recounting these transactions
evidently spells sarcastic with X in
the middle Of that adjective, as he
let's loose from his taut bent bow 8
quiverinG Parthian arrow in parting
from Afr. White, like the following
1T surprises no one that the state ol
Mr. Wizards health and the wish Il
