Mr.. Richard Fry returned this
week from Spokane, where he has
been for a week arranging matters
pertaining to the new townsite.
Everything is being arranged as
fast as possible on solid basis. and
we hope in few days to be able to
have some definite news in regard
to it.
Mr.. r. w, Hummer, Of Alma, Wis,
has decided to remain in this vi
cinity He is a bright and enter
prising young business man and
we feel satisfied that his choice will
be of great profit to himself as well
as to his friends.
Messrs. VIM. Ainslie, of Georgia,
and Mr.. A. J. Staufer, of Hope,
Idaho. have taken up ranches in
this vicinity and have decided to
become fixtures in this valley. They
are heartily welcome.
The merchants at this point are
very well pleased over the outlook
for the coming winter. Trade is
continually picking up, and it is to
be hoped viii grow better with age.
The subject for discourse at. the
debating society this week is, "Is
Marriage a failure2" A lively time

appropriations for surveys, and il

better they would not be so ready
to sensure those in office who were
doing their level best to advance

GOOD INDIANS IF THEY GO.
a Proposition to Move the KoOtenais to the
FIatheq6 Reservation.

Major and Mrs. Roman will short
.ly visit the Indians IN the Koote-
mai valley to arrange with them for
their removal to the Flathead res
servation. The Major was there
two years ago and offered the band
their choice of reservations to 90.
They preferred taking land where
they were in severalty. They never
secured title to it, and this summer
white settlers rushed in and jumped
it. In July a delegation of them
visited the Flathead agency and
asked permission for the band to
remove there Now Major Roman
goes to them with authority to re-
move them to the reservation at
once if they desire to go. AS
Chief Ameas' band Of Kootenais is
already there, there will probably
probably prefer this to any other
reservation.

it away in his valise. Then the
sharpers escort him to his railroad
train, kindly helping him along with
his satchel. When the rural gentle
man next opens his valise he finds in
it, instead of money. a few packages
of sawdust wrapped up neatly in pa
per. His New York friends have
taken him in, and il he has money
enough to get home with he is lucky
1t is OF no use TO complain to the su-
thorities. The countryman could
never find the place or the men who
swindled him, for they are constantly
changing their quarters. And then
he would be in rather embarrassing
position himself, for was he not en-
deavoring TO circulate counterfeit
money?
These rogues do a fourishing bus
mess. Scarcely a week passes that
the New York papers do not record
the swindling Of some person from
the country, yet it is the rarest thing
for the thief to be caught. The only
safe way to do business with these
sharpers is to follow Mr.. Williams's
eXample-send the first letters to the
officers OF the law or to newspaper
where warning will be given to the
unwary.

The KaAss Klatcb and the Town Hail.


The managers Of the kafree Klutch
take this method OF returning thanks
to all who in any way assisted them.
The financial result was SIP clear, and
may be called doing well considering
the two rainy evenings. That this
community has in possession eighteen
dozen more cups and saucers is a GER
tainty. The shooting gallery afforded
much pleasurable excitement for the
young folks on Saturday evening, and
it is hoped to have it open in the near
future. The managers regret that
circumstances beyond their control
made it impossible for them to carry
out the whole plan Of the entertain
ment.
Juvenile lawn parties seem to be
the fashion at this time. The presi-
dent Of the Town Hall Association re
ports contribution of one dollar and
fourteen cents received from the fol
lowing named little girls and boys:
Mary Wagner, Lilly Kearney, Edith
Reynolds, Gertie Lucas, Helen Wag-
ner. Julia Lucas, Landon Kearney
Raymond Stotler. May these young
people live and grow mp to enjoy and
be benefited by the use OF the hall.
The Town Hall Association thanks
them most cordially for their contri-
button, and commends the spirit OF
usefulness they are beginning to de-
yelOD.

Prospective Pleasure.


The grand assembly ball suggested
by correspondent in our last issue
to be given by Mr.. Henry Shepherd
at his Wild Goose Farm on Thursday
evening, 18th instant, has taken def
nate shape, and the five hundred in
vitations to be given will be issued on
Saturday and Monday next. Prepa-
rations are in active progress to make
the occasion all that the cultivated
taste and marked executive ability OF
Mr.. Shepherd, with ample means and
magnificent surroundings, can pro-
duce, which to those best acquainted
with the man and his methods at once
gives assurance OF a brilliant affair.
The success OF such undertakings de
ponds not only upon the elaborate
provision OF the host, but largely also
upon the personal manner and trim
in which the company appears, and
il is gratifying to learn that the great
expectations already aroused are
stimulating the young people OF our
neighboring towns to vie with each
other in their efforts 70 show proper
appreciation OF Mr.. Shepherds gen

Mr.. Shepherd seems to have constant

the Improvement of the property or
the entertainment of the people
among whom he lives, and brief re
view OF his record in this direction
for years past will readily show how
greatly he would be missed from this
community
