Light For the Streets.

Two more street lamps have been
erected in town during the week, one
by DR.. f. Wenz in front of his drug
store and the other by Robt. S. Bra
gaw in front of the court house.
This, in addition to the lamp which
Mr.. Bragaw erected at the corner Of
his residence few weeks ago serves
to light Mccartney street pretty we'll.
Others are speaking OF placing lamps
in front of their places OF business,
and before long Rathdrum will be al
most as we'll lighted as many towns
where electricity is used, and with a
great deal less expense. These lamps
will be duly appreciated by all who
have occasion to travel the streets
after nightfall.

A Bachelor Dinner.

Last Sunday evening J. G. Davis,
our popular tonsoral artist, invited
several of his batchelor friends to par
take of chicken dinner prepared by
himself. Those present were e. d.
Beggs, J. w. Peters, the scribe and T.
e. Anderson. The latter belonging
to the class of men known as bene-
diets, but was admitted into the
hatchelors' circle upon agreeing to act
as toast-maSter, which he did, and
acquitted himself in a creditable man
ner. The spread Mr.. Davis placed
before his guests was such as to con-
vince the most whimsical batchelor
present that he is an expert in the
culinary art as well as with the razor
and scissors.

Exhibit Your Fruit.

Are the farmers of this locality
going to place any of their products
on exhibition at the Spokane fruit
fair? There is surely no reason why
they should not. While the quantity
of such product is yet limited in this
locality, the quality is such that no
one need be ashamed to place it on
exhibition. We have seen samples Of
this fruit which, If taken to the fair
would be very good advertisement
for this locality as producer Of a
fine quality Of fruit. AS yet our
orchards are few and young, but the
enterprising farmers who have tested
the soil and climate Of the prairie
and contiguous valleys by planting
small orchards have found both we'll
adapted and the results have been so
gratifying that others feel encouraged
to plant trees, and it is quite safe to
predict that in few years hence
fruit-raising will be leading indus
try in this locality. Every farmer Is
planting at least family orchard,
and not few are embarking in the
industry with an eye to business aud
are planting what they term COM
| mercial orchard AS small induce
ment to encourage an exhibition at
the Spokane fair we will offer two
years subscription to The SILVER
BLADE to be awarded the farmer who
makes the best display, to be decided
while the fruit is on exhibition at the
fair by three Judges. This is not
much to offer, but is the best we can
do at present That subscription to
The SILVER BLADE is worth $500

achieved by DR.. Prices Cream Baking

ROBBED A GRAVE.
A Dastardly Act Committed by an Indi-
vidual to Get a Skeleton.

SAuudA 10 UcC n SkeleCOns
The individual with ghoulish pro-
clivites who has desecrated the grave
Of Indian Jack had better take a tum-
ble to himself if he does not want the
grand Jury to look into the matter
when that body meets in November.
10 rob a grave, even though it be
only that OF an Indian, is bad enough,
but how much worse to leave the
burying place open and the CHASTITY
remnants of the body, except the
skeleton, scattered about? The name
OF the individual who is guilty of this
dastardly act is withheld for the pres
ent, because 1T is evident from the
manner he has pursued in the mat
ter that he does not realize what he
did. He has taken no precaution
to keep the matter a secret, but on
contrary seems to take great pride IN
telling people about it.
The character Of the living may be
estimated by the measure Of respect
they pay to thei: dead. Jack, whose
last resting place has been thus desc.
Grated was but a poor half-hreed In
dian, but he was nevertheless endow-
ed with far nObler qualities than
many pale face, and the manner in
which he met his death, the attendant
circumstances of which MANY of our
older residents we'll remember, will
bear US out in this assertion. The
scribe was personally acquainted with
Indian Jack, who died early in the
spring of 1889, and had a good op-
portunity to learn his noble charac-
ter, and since his memory has been
recalled by the robhng of his grave,
bit of history, particularly OF the
manner in which he met his death,
will not be out of place.
In the spring of 1889 the smallpox
plague visited Spokane, and through
patient escaping from that city and
coming to this place the disease was
Transmitted to Rathdrum. Among the
first who were unfortunate enough to
be afflicted with this terrible malady
were the family of George Carey Their
condition was deplorable, and no one
except DR.. McGrail would go near
their home to wait on them for fear
Of catching the deadly contagious dis
ease AS soon as Jack Reffel, better
known as ''Indian jack" heard of
this he offered his services to the
doctor, who explained to him the ma
ture of the disease, adding that If he
Qndian jack went near the place he
would be sure to catch the smallpox
and that his physical condition could
not endure the disease, and that it
would surely prove fatal to him. In
dian Jack replied that his services
were needed by the stricken family,
and went to do what he could to
minister to their wants. The rest is
easily told. 1t was only matter OF
a very few days and poor Jack Reffel
was no more. But his services had

Carey. and Jack was satisfied. Could
