Largeness of heart on the part of Judge
Stubs has resulted in a decrease in the
amount of money received by the city in
fines from the Police Court. Judge Stubbs
has frequently RENTED fines assessed. His
right to do this is questioned by some Of
the attorneys. He says that it frequently
happens that the fine would be a greater
hardship upon the innocent wife and fam
lily than upon the prisoner. 1t is intimated
that the authority of the police judge TO
remit fines may be tested.

Rich Placer Diggings

hOoitu OOuEicls
Considerable excitement has been caused
in town during the last few days, on ac-
count of the result Of little prospecting
George Koppen and two or three others had
done on the C.e elum river, between here
and Ronald. Mr.. Koppen has been con-
WINGED for some time that gold in paying
quantities could be found. and last Decem-
ber ne procured rocker. but the Indictment
weather prevented him from doing much
until about two weeks ago. when finding
that the ground was not frozen. he COM
menced digging and found coIors in every
pan. The failing from two pans of dirt,
which he has at his home. the Northern
Pacific hotel. oontain several pieces of
placer gold that can readily be disting-
uished bv the naked eve, and ON close ex-
with glass, 1t is seen to be very
rich. As this is not near bed rock, it
would seem that the boys haye certainly
struck bonanza, and as soon as the weather
will permit, systematic operations for the
of the property will be COM
menced. Next week the Courier will con-
tain further information. from personal
of the property. Should these
mines turn out to be anywhere as valuable

Interest Revived.

Interest is being revived in Lewiston in
the old mining camp -of Warrens, Mr..
Reibold arrived there from Warrens Sun
day and from him comes the story of rich
discovery. He has been sinking. tunnell-
ing and drifting in new location on the
Little Giant, with force Of nine men all
winter. Just before he left for Lewiston
they came upon rich body of fine black
ore which yielded over 81 per pound.
Twenty-Five hundred pounds Of the ore
crushed out $2700 In gold. This wonderful
strike proves a theory advanced by Mr..
Reibold. that he could by deep sinking
catch the main vein below the faults and
drifts. Losing the vein above by fault he
has found it by sinking lower. and has now
discovered the ledge 10 place and has pros
poets of fabulous wealth at hrs command.
Years ago this mining camp created con-
siderable excitement by the reported rich
discoveries of quartz. but of late little has
been heard in reference to 1t. There Is no
doubt rich belt Of ore running through
the country in the vicinity Of Florence, Orc
Emo and Warrens. and the modern meth
ods of mining will bring their hid den
wealth to the surface. Discoveries Of the
precious metals would materially aid the
northwest in this era Of financial stringeucY
and business depression.

The churches yesterday observed the
Easter festival in becoming manner, aud
In nearly all there were services suited to
the occasion. A more perfect day has not
been enjoyed this season. and every one ap-

In thought and language showed that the
sermon had received very careful attention.
The concert in the evening attracted large

stand during the services. All numbers on
the programme were we'll rendered, and the
songs and recitations were highly compile
mented by those present.
Rev. j. Whistler preached powerful ser-
mon in the evening at the Methodist church
on the resurrection Of Christ. It was one
of the best efforts of this able minister. and
was applicable to a practical religious life.
His audience were very attentive, and ap-
peared to be in perfect unison with his
thoughts and language. The morning was
devoted to song service or Easter concert,
and the anthems were well sung BY the
choir, and = solo by Miss Myrtle Michell
and Mr.. w. Msgee were particularly COM
plimented.
At st. Paul's Episcopal church chill

Fire af oakeasIaIe.

The large machine shops owned BY
Gilbert Hunt & 20. at Oakesdale were
destroyed by fire at an early hour on Sun.
day morning, says the Walla Walla
Statesmqs. The origin Of the fire is un-
known, but it is beyond doubt that it was
the work Of an incendiary. The walls
and roof Of the building are of corru
gated iron and could not haye caught fire
by accident, as there was no work being
done and the shops were closed. The fire
was first discovered breaking forth from
the interior, and the stock of machines,
wagons, ETC., were all ablaze. There is
no fire department In Oakesdale and
nothing could be done toward saving the
building or stock. The incendisry must
have taken considerable pains to get the
fire under headway, as 1t was nearly all
dirt floor, with but little infiam nable ma
terial in the building itself.
The total loss is estimated at $4,000,
mostly on machinery and wagons. and
the insurance was $4,000. Only a few
days since the company allowed a policy
for $1,000 to lapse in order to cut down
expenses, it being deemed that the build
ing was extremely safe from fire, being
r ather isolated from frame structures.
