Hard times can be made hard

want little more consideration

think themselves exempt from
the conditions which other peo-

So coming down to t. e indiv-

or acres of land think
themselves supreme, and if they
cannot rule, will in many cases
do ruin.
Greediness has wrecked many
towns and enterprises as surely
as it has wrecked mems souls.
No matter how the man suc>

the people tOady to him even to
a sickening extent.
But we should all take hold
not alone as matter of interest
but as one OF duty, to bring up
our surroundings to the standard
which all should appreciate and

Wednesday evening while Geo. w.
Beckman, Louis Worth and L. Fer
tig were crossing Fish Lake on their
way to Mr.. Beckman's home, sad
and most unexpected accident befels
them, in which Mr.. Fertig lost his
life by drowning. The accident was
unusual because the lake was perfect
ly calm when 1T occurred. 1t appears
that the deceased was Slightly under
the influence of liquor and while NOV
ing about on the boat fell overheard
pulling one of his companions, Louis
Worth, with him. Beckman made
an heroic effort to save his compan-
ions neither of whom could swim, but
succeeded only in saving Mr.. Worth.
The accident occurred In plain view
OF Mr.. Beckman's home and ia about

may not be among the improbabilities.
IL is safe to predict that the event is
yet a few weeks in the future.
A part Of the commissioners pro-

other matter. There remains vet the

Miss Katie L. LAWN returned last
Monday morning from visit to Spo-

and Miss Marie Aspil OF Dublin, Ire

reen OF Spokane, acted in the capaci-
ty Of bridesmaid and best man.
The SILVER BLADE is one day late
this week, owing to the fact that the
proceedings Of the teachers institute
which appear elsewhere. could not be
gotten complete before Saturday morn
ing. Besides the faber-pusher is only
70 nmon mortal endowed with the
usual frailties Of mankind and could
not resist neglecting business to some
extent while the school ma'ams were
in the CITY,
Supt. Melder and his able assistant,
Prof. Brady, might we'll feel proud OF
the grand success which attended the
institute the past week. Its success
was due to a we'll arranged program
and corps of instructors who were
qualified for the work assigned them
and were competent to interest and
instruct. The outlay will be many
times repaid by the impetus the insti.
tute work will give the schools of this
county.
Among the local talent at the en-
tertainments during the past week
Miss Florence Wright rendered sever
al fine selections on the piano. Miss
Wright, who is only thirteen years Of
age, displays musical ability rarely
equaled in one SO young. For some
time past she has been studying mu
sic under the very instructors in Spo
kane, and is progressing finely. The
selections with which she favored
