Lewiston people did not know the pay
ments had begun until o'clock this
evening. Tonight there is quiet but
general rejoicing, as it will put in cir
culation several thousand dollars.
ARRIVAL OF THE PACKAGE
The registered package containing
S626, 900 in treasury drafts, the long-ex-
pected payment to the Nez Perez In
dams reached the Lewiston postoff1ce
Friday night, and was yesterday trans
ferred to the Lapwai agency. Since
notification of the departure of the
drafts from Washington, all sorts OF
rumors have been afioat Of unexpected
delays happening on the trip across the
continent etc, and these rumors, infiu-
enced by the previous disappointments
to our citizens, which has seemed to
characterize all government action IN
the reservation affairs, were received
even with some credulity and so, SEEM
ingly influencing all to a staid indif-
ference The little ackage, with the
usual large amount of registered mat
ter, was taken from the stage without
probably a suggestion from the LATEST
bystander that perhaps the Indian
money had arrived. Agent Fishers
presence here at an early nOuF the
next day renewed the interest of the
citizens in the matter, and when it be-
came known that mounted police ac-
companied him, the last doubt of the
most creduous was dispelled, and 1T
was apparent to all thar the money
had arrived. He receipted for the
treasure Immediately upon his arrival,
and hundreds of people had been at
tracted to the vicinity Of the postof-
flee to get peep at the little package,
which had been the foundation of 20
| many false hopes and consequent dis
appointments, and the arrival of which
had been looked upon by the imagin-
alive as a realization of the charms OF
| Utopia Agent Fisher indifferently
| carried the little package, which was
! the attraction of hundreds OF eyes,
! carelessly under his arm while trans
acting other business, and In the after
noon departed for the agency accom-
panied by the police. All were armed,
and they were met near the outskirts
| of town by the company of soldiers
! who are stationed at the agency during
the issuance of the first payment. The
pay rolls, which the Indians must sign
in receipt for their warrants were mali
ed at Washington one day after the
drafts.

the firemen back from the work of res
cue, except just at the line of the alley
wall. OF those pinioned beneath the
debris, only two are now thought to be
alive, both men from the fifth floor who
are still lying on their beds. Both are
covered several feet deep except about
their heads, and can hardly survive an
other half hour. Almost no progress is
being made in relieving them, as the
smoke is binding. The flames are only
kept back from their bodies by half a
dozen streams of water. Thus far six
persons have been taken from the
ruins, all badly injured.
In addition four were severely cut by
glass falling into the street. A piece
of the cOrniCe of the Cheesman block, at
Seventeenth and Larimore streets, fully
a block from the Gumry hotel, was torn
out and fell to the street, narrowly
missing several passers-by. The frag-
ment weighed at least ton.
In the wrecked hotel there was a tier
of five or six rooms extending across
the rear of the building, facing the al
ley on each of the three upper floors
All of these rooms are believed to have
been occupied, as people residing in
rooms directly across the alley OBJ
served lights burning in every window
during the evening.
BOTH PROPRIETORS DEAD.
Among the dead are Peter Gumry
and r. G.. Greiner, the two prOprietOTs
of the hotel, the day clerk and the night
clerk, none of whom have been found.
Immediately after the explosion oc-
Cured a young baby was heard wailing
in the corner Of q room which had near
ly all fallen away. Its parents had
been carried down to death with the
first crash. Soon after the little One's
cries became weaker. and later when
the flames shot up into the skeleton of
the building, became entirely silenced.
The firemen made a brave effort to
save q woman caught in the debris at
the north corner of the hotel, but were
forced to abandon the attempt.
The spot where she lay is now the
hottest part OF the fire. None of the
six people thus far taken out are con-
scious, and Identification is impossi'
BILE.
OTHER BUILDINGS CRUSHED.
The force Of the explosion carried
away @ large portion of the rear Of the
building next adjoining the Gumry, to-
ward Seventeenth street, and occupiec

was of the better kind of secOnd-clasS

family patronage. Thus many ladiea
and children were among the guests.
The building was erected as the Elder
Musee by the widow of General Ton
Thumb, and was SO occupied for a year
| but later remodeled for use as a hotel
Gumry and Greiner have owned it fol
several years. Mr.. Gumry was a prom

work during the erection of the state

dead.

TuE PIN WAS FOUND.

At an entertainment in Dublin thought
reader boasted that he could find marked
pin hidden by one of the audience. Tie
pin was hidden by IA Trinity student in an
adjoining room in the presence of a COM
mittee, among whom was a confederate
The student, suspecting the man from his
looks, slyly took away the pin from its hid
ing place. On his return to the platform
the thought reader gazed into the hider's
face, and putting his hand to his brow was
blindfolded and led the student to the hid
ing place, but of course could find no pin
He returned, acknowledged his defeat, and
looked daggers at his confederate. Now,
gentlemen said the student, ''Fll under
take to say that if this diviner of the hu
man mind will do as l tell him half the
audience, without single hint, will know
where the pin is" and turning to the
tn ought reader he said, "Sit down." He
did so. There was yell, and jumping up
the thought reader hastily pulled from his
coattails the marked pin.

nice enough for you now?''
Crissie wanted to yield, but she could
not say yes simply and plainly like anoth
er girl.
While she was thinking about it Steve
reached out his arm and drew her to him,
creamy apron and all. The old Maltese
approached the churn and licked the
cream from the sides then he stood upon
his hind legs and licked the lid. He even
gulped down the Jumps of butter that had
come up through the hole. No doubt he
wondered greatly what Crissie was about
to let him do it, but Crissie had no eyes
for old Malty just tIon.
She happened to catch a glimpse of
Steve's face as he drew her to him, and
something she saw there put strange,
new feeling in her heart 1t was feel
ing of wild, headlong alteration for Steve.
She forgot all about being pert and saucy.
She grew tender for moment 'Pll help
you keep it nice-your eighty, mean"

THE RETIRED BURGLAR.

Speaking of cinches," said the retired
burglar, ''the easiest, softest, smoothest
snap ever struck was in house in
small town in Rhode Island. There was
thunderstorm coming up as went along
toward this house, and just as I got there
it began to sprinkle. By the time I'd got
inside it was coming down pretty hard,
and was glad to get under shelter, for l
hadn't brought any umbrella with me.
hadn't had any supper either, and when l
got into the dining room thought I'd get
something to eat. The sidebOard was lock-
ed and the key carried up stairs, but lit
tie jimmy opened the door as. easy as knife
would open pie. l set out little snack
ON the table and sat down and ate comfor
tably, with the rain pouring down outside
If there's anything like, it's to hear
storm a-raging outside when you're settled
down all snug and comfortable within.
But here was something hadn't count
ed ON. The thunder was roaring and
plunging like a dozen earthquakes burst
ing down through the sky, and it kept the
house in tremble all the time. l knew
nobody could sleep in that thunder.
They'd be sure to be all awake, but here |
was, and hated to lose night, and after
I'd waited little and the storm didn't
show any signs of letting up thought I'd
go ahead an see anyhow. The very first
room looked into up stairs settled the
whole business.
"Over in one corner of the roOm be-
yond bed, 1 saw woman standing in
front of an open closet door. Two child
rem hoped out of bed, and the mother
pushed them into the closet, and then
crowded in herself and pulled the door
shut sight. 1t was all.very simple. Hus-
band away, no help; two children sleep
ing in another room, woke up by the
thunder, come into their mothers room,
all scared; mother puts children in closet
and gets in herself, as lots of folks do in
and turn the key in the lock, and there
you are. No danger of them coming out
till the storm is over anyway, but just as
well to be sure about it, and then | Just
quietly go through the house. 1t isn't
big, and it doesn't take long, and come
back before the storm is over and unlock
the closet door again and skip, and that's
allabout it."

AN IMPORTANT OFFICE.

To properly fill its office and functions,
it is important that the blood be pure.
When it is in such a con iition, the body
is almost certain to be healthy. A COM
plaint at this time is catarrh in some of its
various forms. A slight cold develops the
disease in the head. Droppings of cor
ruption passing into the lungs bring on
consumption The only way to cure this
disease is to purify the blood. The most
obstinate cases of catarrh yield to the medi-
cinal powers of Hoods Sarsaparilla as if
by magic, simply because it reaches the
seat of the disease, and by purifying and
vitalizing the blood, removes the cause.
Not only does Hoods Sarsaparilla do this
but it gives renewed vigor to the whole
system, makingit possible for good health
to reign supreme.

1loetry,

WHAT is DANtING.
It's a keeping time to music
With mea asured, rythmlc grace,
It's a hugging of your best girl
A little round the waist.
It's steppin' lightly this way,
And IA whirlin' round and round
It's sIidn' long of yonr best girl
Scarce touchn' of the ground.
It's singin' with the toes,
It's sighin' with the head,
It's tiingn' out the heels
When you'd ought to be a bed.
It's a switchin' off the dust
From the other fellerS coat,
It's bowin' 10 " the head,
Like a frisky Billy goat.
What is darcin any way,
But the antics of Il calf,
Or the gambos of a donkey
When he perpetrates laugh?
oh yes! dancin' is an exercise
That toncS up the blood:
1t sets the stomach workin',
And liqnidates the food.
It's better than plaster
TO strengthen up the back;
It's the very thing we country folks
Have always had the lack.
SO lets go in for dancin,'
With all our might and main.
No matter if we have the rheumatic,
Or if we're halt or blind or lame.

A STRANGER IN THE VILLAGE.
An Enterprising Burglar Who Says
His Name Is Thompson.

He Attempted to Clean Out Kehoe's Milli-
merry Store Last Night-His Flying Leap
Through Window and Clever Capture.
An enterprising burglar was nipped in
the bud last night and now languishes in
duranee vile.
Last night about O'Clock Fa man went
to the rear of harrington block and
hurled stone through the rear window
of Miss Kehoe's millinery store. The
noise made by the glass was. considerable
and he went away, but returned about
II. He picked the glass out and entered
the store through the window, but was
seen by Mr.. Wiley, who boards at the
Chadwick House, and who notified the
police.
Officers Ball, Emery and Woodsum ac-
companied him to the rear of the store.
where the burglar could be heard within.
He had industriously carried the stock
ribbons to the rear of the store and was
unwindingfthem and packing them away
MIR. Wiley then went round and ratified
the door, expecting the burglar would
pop out into the arms of the officer but
the fellow had heard the sounds and
leaped through window on the side into
the Clapp grounds, cutting himself badly
in doing So He ran like white head
toward Cumberland street, but was head
ed off by Officer Ball. who captured him
at the corner of Oxford street. At the
station he gave his name as Thompson
and said he had just arrived in town yes
terday. His wounds were dressed and he
was locked up. He. had unrolled at least
500 yards of ribbon when discovered and
was preparing to make good haul.
