Dispute Over q Townsite.

A suit involving the townsite OF
Bonner's Ferry is to be contested.
The property involved is estimated to
be of the value of from $4,000 to
100000, with prospective value OF
exceeding that amount.
:. B. Wright claims to be the own.
er OF this tract Of land by the right
OF settlement, and of living on, and
improving the property. The prop,
crty was unsurveyed government land,
and was first taken for grazing and
agricultural purposes. On April 8,
1880, Mr.. Wright claims he filed his
posscssory right according to the
laws OF Idaho. lie finally developed
the idea that his ranch was a magnifi-
cent location for townsite, and pro-
ceeded to stake it out for "a metropolis.
lie was arranging for a large hotel,
several manufacturers were contem-
plating location there, and everything
looked favorable for the rapid settle
ment of the embryo city.
The property in question was at
once considered very valuable, es-
pecially so, as it is the best opening
into the rich mining districts of
British Columbia. The locators not
only considered it valuable as the
center of great mining district, and
the natural center of the agricultural
part of that country, but it would be
the great border supply station. Both
the Great Northern and the Northern
Pacific are making Bonner's Ferry q
general supply point and the new
road which is to be built through
British Columbia next season will get
supplies which come over the line
from this place.
Another point which will make the
fight still more bitter is the fact that
within the last few days a gentleman
representing five newly discovered
mining claims near Bonner's Ferry
arrived in that city with samples of
ore. He had them assayed, and the
essays show the ore to bc exceedingly
rich. Quite a snug sum has been
promised by eastern men to develop
these mines and put up mills. All
the trade from the mining district will
necessarily come to Bonner's Ferry.
1t is claimed by well informed parties
that within the next year a custom
house will be established there by the
government. With all these prospects
in view it is not strange that a great
battle is to take place over the title to
the property.

A Historical Incident.

Sixty-one years ago last Sunday
February 7, 1S3l-an American trad
ing ship, the Friendship, was loading
spices in the harbor of Qualla Battoo,
on the western side of the island of Su-
matra, when she was set upon by the
crew OF a piratical Malay pepper boat
and captured. The captain, two Off
GERS and four sailors of the Friendship
were at the time on shore weighing
pepper. The first officer and two sea.
men were killed, several others wound
ed, the ship plundered of $4,000 in
specie, lot of opium and every mov-
able thing of value on board. Other
American traders recaptured the
Friendship before the Malays succeed
ed in running her ashore.
That was before the electric tele.
graph or ocean steam navigation, so
the news OF the outrage did not reach
this country till the succeeding August.
However. no time was lost by the
Jackson administration in sending an
expedition to demand reparation, and
il refused, to infiict proper punishment.
The United States frigate Potomac, in
command of Commodore John Downes
was sent Oh this mission. Finding no
responsible government to negotiate
with and no disposition on the part Of
the piratical Malays to make any sort
OF reparation, force of $50 men was
landed which attacked and DESTROYED
the Notifications and burned the town
One hundred and fifty of the natives
were slain, including the chief rajah
concerned in the murderous outrage
on the American ship. This occurred
one day less than year from the time
the assault was committed, and the
swiftness and completeness of the chas
tisement served to make similar of
lenses on the part of the people OF til,
Malayan archipelago unpopular for al
time to come.

A Bad Picture to Have About.

William M. Chase, the famous por-
trait painter in New York, tells in a
recent interview this remarkable story ::
His unimpeachable character must
vouch for its truth: 1T is a we'll
known fact that / use models and
sometimes pay we'll for a fine photo
graph of a subject. One day man
came to ME with two negatives, one
representing lady as an italian
peasant, and the other picturing the
same lady in strikingly nude position.
The man thought the negatives repre-
sented professional models. NV breath
was nearly taken away from me, be-
cause l instantly recognized the lady
as the wife of dear friend of mine.
He was an amateur photographer, and
had had the craze for years. His wife
was young, beautiful and highly ac-
complished, and why this man was
peddling negatives of her around
could not surmise. knew had to
proceed cautiously, for if the man once
suspected that knew the two mega
tives pictured beautiful society lady
instead OF q regular model, he would
have asked small fortune for them.
Carelessly I asked him his price.
When he said $25, took out my check
book and gave him check for the
amount. Then l asked him where he
got the negatives. He said they were
found in house in Philadelphia by
those who had moved in it recently.
Then l remembered that my friend
and his wife, who lived in Philadel-
phia, had once resided in the house
and had moved. Well, l sent the neg.
atives to my friend and told him how
got them. He sent me check for the
sum I paid out, and said he would
have cheerfully paid $1,000. He had
somehow left the negatives when he
moved. Moral: If you must take
your wife's picture, stick to drapery ga
lore"

CAREFULLY compiled statistics ol
crime in the United States show that
the murders committed last year
numbered 5,906 or an increase over
1890 of 1916 and of 3,339 over 1850.
Some of this increase is doubtless due
to greater fullness in reporting the
daily life of the country which the
telegraph shows constantly, but out
side of this the increase IL large
enough to be dispiriting. The record
OF suicides for the year presents fully
as melancholy picture to those who
have been making themselves believe
the world is progressing morally. Last
year they numbered 1891, an increase
OF 69I over 1890. Many of the latter
crimes were due to dependency. die.
appointed love or business losses.
Crime is the handmaid OF poverty
and the prime cause OF many cf the
evil deeds of the past year are directly
traceable to this cause. Improve the

Wound by the Sun.
Optician,


A clock is to be seen ut Brussels
which comes as near to being perpet-
ual motion machine as is likely ever to
be invented; for the sun does the wind
ing.
A shaft exposed to the solar rays
causes an up draft of air, which sets a
fan in motion. The fan acts upon a
mechanism which raises the weight OF
the clock until it reaches the top, and
then puts brake on the fan till the
weight has gone down little, when
the fan is again liberated, and proceeds
to act as before.
As long as the sun shines frequently
enough, and the machinery does not
wear out, the clock will keep going.
