Beats the Record.

There are number of expert an
glers in this city who have landed
some big fish, and each season there
is lively contest to see who can get
the biggest one. Among these dis
ciples of Isaac Walton is Mr.. Walter
Williams, who runs the Pioneer lunch
counter on Main ST., and ut this early
stage of the contest he has made u
record which it will be hard to beat.
On Tuesday while fishing along the
Little Spokane hs landed salmon
trout which tipped the scales at thir-
teen and one-half pounds. 1t was a
beautiful specimen of the finny tribe
and tasted just as good as it looked, as
the reporter can testify.

"The Cricket"

The Cricket theater is the name o
the new plac of amusement to be
opened on the 18th of this month at
Wardner. Miles McNally, who has
ever since Wardner was settled. cater
ed to the amusement loving public OF
that thriving town, has fitted up a
snug little theater and has made ar
rangements with travelling artists so
that he will be able to give the people
of Wardner frst-class performances.
For the opening night he has secured
the services of such talent as Howard
and Alton, Miss Rose Kellogg, Jennie
Bell, Clara Morgan. the Bishop sisters
and many others who are we'll known
in Spokane Falls. When Spokanites
visit the Ell Dorado of the Occur d.
Alenes they will find the Cricket a
pleasant place to spend an evening.

Officers Gillespie and Fisher. These
gentlemen repaired 10 the CORY spot.
Bruin in the meantime had taken
refuge in the top Of a tree where at u
distance OF seventy feet from the
ground he was taking in the
movements OF the enemy without field
glasses. AS soon as he took in the sit.
uation he attempted to go up higher,
which movement, under the circum.
stances, the best military critic will
approve. Eight pistol shots changed
the situation--and the pigs we're
avenged. The fact that it required
eight shots to do the deed is no rehec.
ton on the Workmanship of the officer,
but rather tribute TO the toughness
OF the bear.
Two or three parties were engaged
in skinning the bear when the reporter
left, but up to the time of going to
press, at 3 am, they had not succe eded
in finding the pigs.

Ladies are pleased with tastily ar

have some place to drop into and rest
and chat little bit. The upstairs

Grand hotel, of Mrs. Comerford, pre-
sent q rich and cosy display in the
very latest style OF choice millinery
goods. She employs the only artistic

Straight Jacket Needed.

On Saturday night, Constable Grit
fin and Special Officer Brockman were
summoned across the river by the
news that man, by the name of Met
calf, was crazy drunk and abusing his
family. 1t seems that the fellow has
been in the habit of going on protract-
ed sprees, and of late has been very
violent, so that his children did not
dare to stay in the house with him.
He tried to shoot his horse and was
only prevented by hiding all the guns
in the house.
When the officers arrived at the
cabin they found him in bed, and
learned from Mrs. MetCalf that, Tough,
she wished her husband arrested, she
was afraid of the consequences. After
some talk, however, they persuaded
her to leave the house while they walked
up the intoxicated man. He at
once began to howl and curse, and
his wife and children came running
in and clinging to him begged the Of
ficers to release him. In the midst OF
the turmoil he broke away and dashed
out of the door, but was re'captured
and then fell in fit. He was taken
back to his bed and kept in the care
of his family.

WHAT MR.. ID. DRUMHELLER THINKS
ABOUT THE SEATTLE, LAKE SHORE
AND EASTERN

WHAT MR.. d. DRUMHELLER THINKS
ABOUT THE SEATTLE, LAKE SHORE
AND EASTERN.
Knowing that Mr.. d. Drumheller is
well versed in the resources and topo-
graphy of Washington territory, re-
porter asked him for his opinion in re-
gard to the benefits to be derived from
the extension of the Seattle, Lake
Shore and Eastern railroad to this
city. Mr.. Drumheller stated that in
his opinion the advantage, at present,
would be the connection which it
would give the city with the Canadian
Pacific. AS he understands it, the
Seattle, Lake Shore & Eastern is to
meet the Canadian Pacific at West
minister, near the mouth of the Frazier
river. This point is about 45O miles
from Spokane and by means of the
proposed railroad Spokane flour can
successfully compete with that pro-
tuced in Oregon for the trade of
British Columbia. When asked in
regard to the suggestion which has
been advanced by some, that it would
be better to invest $4,000 in a smell
ter, for then the road would be sure TO
come he stated that he did not think
the plan good one, for until railroad
is built u smelter could not be run
proftably, as it would not be possible
to secure fiux, except at exhOrbitant
rates. The proposed railroad runs
through q country rich in the mate
rials required, and in his opinion a
smelter would much more surely fol-
low the road than the road the smelter.
In his opinion, based on infOrma-
ton given him by parties who are in a
position to know, the Seattle, Lake
Shore & Eastern is virtually part of
the Manitoba, and that means great
deal to the city. The people OF Seattle
have always regarded Spokane with
the kindliest feeling and are desrous
to have direct communication with

Creek road, which is being built to the
lead and iron mines, is completed, and
u sufficient quantity of these ores can
be got out for use in smelling. There

mine, the Kearney brothers and Nose

On their way down Leghorn and

bears, just beyond Loom lake. Harris

friend that discretion was the better
part of valor and the bears we're allowed

M111s RILL AND IRON TRADE.
Last week the Most Prosperous Of I
Whale YAar

Last Week the Most Prosperous OF the
Whole Year.
The Philadelphia Press TRUST Rspubii,
can) has this to say on the general suhjsc!
of the iron trade:
The past week has been one Of steady
Improvement, and mag DO copaidered one
of the best in the whole year. There is q
demand for everything, and, perhaps, with
one or two exceptions, everything on the
list commands higher prices than could
have been obtained for several weeks past.
Prospects, too, appear to be unusually
favorable, and q large trade seems to DC
fully assured for the balance of the year.
Prices look like advancing, but the feeling
is quite conservative and there lie more
disposition to decline business than to
quote figures, which sitter all, might not
be warranted by ACKNOWLEDGMENT.
But the market has q strong ard healthy
appearance, and with continued activity IL
il not unlikely that a higher range Of
prices may be announced before the sno"
flies.

WE believe that these trusts are the
natural offspring of a market srtificislly
restricted; that an in~ordiustely high tariff,
besides furnishing the temptation for their
existence, snlarges the limit within which
they may operate against the people, and
thus increases the extent Of their power
