with his two horse wagon to do
sonc trading. He traded at Mr.. J.
+. Jones store, paid tor wha, he
bought Win a ten dollar greenback
and received $3.50 in change. While
Dir Davis was doing his trading, a
little negro boy was seen loading
about his wagon, bat on account of
his size aud youthful appearance, no
one pad much attention 10 him.
The boy helped Mr.. Davis to put
his trade IN his wagon, and when
Mr.. Davis left town on his return
home, the boy go, in the wagon aud
took seat Oh box, while Mr..
Davis rode one OF the horses. Be
fore they had gone far Mr.. Davis
began 10 think there was something
wrong, aud told the boy to get out
OF the wagon and get on the horse
aud drive, and he would get in the
wagon. 1t was not long before the
little negro told Mr.. DAVIS he had
gone as tar that way as he was go
ing, and got off the horse. Mr.. Da-
Wis then got on the horse and drove
on. Instead OF going in another d.
rection. the boy followed Mr.. Davis
until he got in the ueighborhood OF
Dir. E!more taucelte's. He then
ran up to the old gentleman, caught
him by the leg, pulled him off bis
horse, choked aud struck him, went
back to the wagon and got Mr. Da-
Wis walking stick, and again attack.
ed Mr.. Davis, telling him that if he
dldn't give hlm his money be would

Mr. Davis pockets, and got bis
pocse, book aud money, aud then
ran of.
Mrs Faucettc heard Mr.. Davis
hoilo, but thought il was soue one
hunting Mr.. Davis went to Mr.
Faucette's house and told what had

Faucette came to town aud Inform
ed young Sheriff Hughes what had
happened.
FRIDAY morning Sheriff John X.

What Black1oot Needs.


II has been aptly remarked that the
devastating confagration that leveled
great parts of London and Chicago to
ashes did those places more good than
the casual observer ever dreamed of.
The streets and buildings of both cities
were afterwards improved upon, and
from their own ashes arose cities of
magnificent splendor, replete with the
marks of architectural skill and beau
ty characteristic of the highest clYili-
zation among men and the grandest
workmanship among artisans.
II anything on earth will draw a
desirable population, in numbers or
quality, to rising town it is an ap-
pearance Of neatness in which the
hand of care and the touch of pride
is visible around its dwellings and
through the avenues of its principal
highways. Many great city started
in life without half the natural sur
rounding that Blackfoot has to-day
They, like self made men, had the
material within themselves.
The lives of cities and of men are
so closely related that the history o.
one without the other is incomplete
| To note the development and prosper
ity and naturalization of city with
out mention of its benefactors ant
founders is a gross ingratitude a
well as surface view of what nigh
have been a practical and proirabl
o observation.

We hope this is true. We should like
it to be true; to put it on record among
the wonderful doings of Northampton
citizens. This is the story: w. H. Pratt
was fishing in the old bed III about three
feet of water when he noticed fine
pound and half pickerel chewing his
hook. Slowly. carefully he began to
haul him in. when around the captured
fish the waters rolled in wild commo-
ton and u huge fish about three feet
long was seen making frantic efforts to
swallow the pickerel. Mr.. Pratt waded
out to catch closer glimpse of the mon
ster. who. with wicked roll of the eye,
turned tail and made off. leaving track
as large as the wake of steamer
