A Two Weeks Vacation.

The sixth month of the term of
school closed on Friday the 22nd
instant.
1t has been the intention of the
directors to have but six months of
school, but at the end of the fifth
month it was found that sufficient
funds would be obtained to admit
of continuance of at least one
month more than they had intend
ed, hence the teachers were inform
ed that the term would be seven
months. On Tuesday of this week
the directors again informed the
teachers that the term would be ex-
tended another month. The teach
ers then asked for vacation of two
weeks which was granted. School
will open again on the 3rd day of
April.
This arrangement by the directors
is wise in one sense for the school
is of such a high grade and the
work so thorough that the pupils
as well as the parents will approve
of the change that gives them the
advantage of additional term.
It's unfortunate in that the teach
ers have arranged their plans of work
for the pupils so as to do certain
amount of work in a certain time,
and now a complete change has to
be made after six months of the
term have passed.
The following is report for the
month ending March IL:

Another Rich District Near
Bonner's Ferry.
THE GREAT CONTINENTAL MINE
Mining Experts Say 1t Has the Biggest
Surface Showing of Any Mine
in the Country.

Kootenai country. 1t is compar-
atively new and unexplored region.
Three years ago some fine locations
were made, but it was not until the
discovery Of the Smith mine, the
Continental, a year ago last October,
that the country attracted much
attention. The district is located
about so miles northwest of Bon
ner's Ferry. 1t lies between Priest
river and the summit of the range
between Priest river and the Koot-
enai. The only practical inlet to
the district is by way of Bonner's
Ferry and down the Kootenai to
the mouth of Bear creek, thence up
Bear creek to the mines.
Three years ago the first locations
of any note were made by j. Howe
and d. Mitchell. They prospected
on Priest river near the head of the
lake. They located the Tascoo in
this section. The Tascoo is a high
grade galena ledge some 10 or IL
feet wide. The Pendleton claim
was afterwards located on the same
ledge by Northern Pacific officials.
No great amount of work has been
done on these claims owing to their
inaccessibility at present, but quite
number Of promising locations
have been made since that time.
1t was year ago last October,
however, that the biggest strike
was made in the Priest Lake region.
1t was then that Billy Huston and
Fred Suffer located the Continental,
or Smith mine as it is commonly
called. This discovery is located
near the summit of the mountains
between Priest river and the Koot-
enai, and only a few miles south of
the Boundary line. the ledge is
IL to Is feet wide and is traceable
by the ore cropping for distance
of two or three miles. The striking
feature of this ledge is the fact that
vast quantities of ore lie exposed on
the surface. A number of experts
have examined the property and ii
is the unanimous verdict that the
Continental has the greatest surface
showing Of anything in the entire
Kootenai country. $4,000 was re-
fused for this mine last summer
But little development work has
been done as yet, but the claim viii
be opened up next summer.
On the same ledge are a number o
other locations which are probably
as good as the Continental. Among
them are: The Jasper and the Blu
Joe, owned by VIM. Huston, Charli
Smith, Ignatz We'll and Others
The Cariboo owned by Henry Sad
Ter and w. P. Granger; the Key
stone, owned by M. Mackey, VIM
Huston and d. Collen; the jim
Hill, owned by Pelkey & Granger
the Irene, owned by l. We'll. Tn
latter assays 1926 to $3.50 in silver
/. We'll and Chas. Smith now owl
an interest in the Continental.
In addition to these location
there is a copper district just acros
the Boundary Line where a num-

He Was Newspaper Correspondent as

The papers of late have been well
filed with all sorts of talk, some true
and some false, about jay Gould and
family. Old John Gould. Of Roxbury,
jays father, is spoken Of as very poor,
which, according to the Detroit Free
Press, is not true. He was sturdy,
well-read, intelligent farmer, In good
circumstances. At the time of the
anti-rent war in the county he stood up
boldly for the laws until better ones
could be made. When ordered by the

went right on as usual One day the
horn was blown and in less than an
hour body of disguised men appeared

II know who you are, Big Thunder:

to the whole career Of Jay Gould--an
independent audacity that never failed
him. When mapping the county and
making up his history Of Delaware
county he was a correspondent for the
Franklin Visitor, and its prospectus was
published in the history in full His
letters TO the Visitor were always spicy
and interesting and were kept up until
he built the tannery in Wayne county.
He then advised me TO ask his sister
Betty to write for the paper, and
found her one of the best correspond

habit of exercise when young man.
Naturally person who passes his youth
in violent exercise finds later on that
he cannot do without it. The habit is
as easily acquired as that of drinking or
opium smoking, and, once acquired, a
person becomes a slave TO it for the rest
of his life.
Most people, however, eat far too
much, and then often find themselves
ineommoded, If they do not work off
this excess Of food. 1t is easy to getup
an artificial appetite. remember Mr.
Bright once explained this TO me. He
said the stomach is artificially distend-

this artificial distension produces a per-
petual craving for food, and this is
termed being hungry Gradually re-

SEA GULL AS MESSENGER.
News Of Famous Disaster Carried to the
Living by Gull.

news OF FAMOUS DISASTER carried TO the
Living by Gull.
"The news Of q famous disaster on
the great Indian ocean was lately
brought 20 the living by a sea gull, y
said traveller, who was on his way to
New Zealand, according to the st. Louis
Globe-Democrat.
Some years ago the Indian liner At
lantis, plying between Liverpool and
Calcutta, was lost in the Indian sea
and all on board persisted. At that time
/ was sailing from London to New
South Wales via the Red and the Indian
seas, The boat / was on was the Tri-
tonia, good sound vessel, and had an
enjoyable trip. While sailing in the
Indian sea a sea gull was one day cap
tured and about its neck was tied a
small note, which read:
Atlantis struck ca the Harad rock.
We are all lost Father Coathe.'
This remarkable message was all
that was ever found. The boat had
sailed some five months previous, well
stocked with merchandise and passen-
gers, and had been duly inspected and
pronounced seaworthy. IL must have
been terrific shock that caused her to
sink. But the message was strange.
Who Father Coathe was and how he
happened to have a sea gull at hand
win always remain mystery. What
wonderful courage he must have had,
standing as he did on the brink Of eter-
nifty and there writing message to the
living
I'VE continued our journey 70 Sidney,
where the note and sea gull were both
delivered to the harbormaster, together
with the evidence Of the crew. This
was aftcrward sent to England, where
the knowledge was distributed. 1t
seems 10 me that a few such facts as
these would serve to build narrative
upon, and you can easily believe that it
would be more interesting than fiction" I
Il have left the letters at home, said
