were commenced last Tuesday morning.

entire body while the Mayor carp has
only q row OF scales down each side of

The excursion to Ceur d Alene
lake last Sunday was not as well at
tended as the one before, but very
pleasant time was had. Four coach
loads were present from points between
Moscow and the lake, and three coaches
were run down from Walla Walla. The
Walla Walla party was accompanied by
the Blue Mountain band. The train
arrived at the lake at eleven o'clock and
left for home at six in the evening.
The Cour d Alene steamer was on the
lake and many ava1led themselves of the
opportunity for ride; others rented
small boats and rowed over the lake or
fished for trout in its waters and several
returned with good strings of the gamey
fish. One disgrace to the otherwise
pleasant day was the large number OF
tin-horn gamblers and sharps who piled
their nefaricus games on the grounds.
There was also good many toughs
present from the mines who succeeded
in getting "full" and raising dis
iurbance.
