Rca! Estate Activity.

The records show a decided in
crease in the number of real estate
transactions, one item indicative
of approaching better times.
During the month of February
there were several big deals nego-
tiated and large number of small
kuleanas changed hands. The
coffee industry has received a new
impetus, one good sign being the
fact that considerable home capital
is being invested in that di-
rection. On the I'd inst. twenty
nine pieces of property changed
ownership.

Facts About q Watch
From n. Y. Commercial Adv

lIl'il ~ L ''illllNlNloi AhNsJ
"a watch balance gives five
vibrations every second, 300 every
minute, $4,000 every hour, $4,000
every day, 1877 $4,000 every year.
At each vibration it rotates about
II times, which makes 1877, 100000
revolutions every year. In order
that we may better understand the
stupendous amount of labor per-
formed by these tiny works, let
us make a pertinent comparison.
Take for illustration a locomotive
with six foot driving wheels. Let
its wheels be run until they have
given the same number OF revoluA
ton that a watch does in one
year, and they will have covered
distance equal to twenty-eight
complete circuits of the earth"
What stupendous working
powers your tiny little ma
chine has; and how little at
tention you give 1t until it has
refused to 90 further. Tired
out" The accumulation Of old
oil, particles Of dirt, so minute
you can't see it, have so added
to its burdens, that it refuses
to 90 further. Now is the
time to send it to a watch
maker, not until now, for it
will no longer 90 as it should.
How much better to give it all
the attention it needs while it
yet can 90. Is it no better
than "A common lawn mower d?
You give it less attention.
Would you think Of running a
mower for a year or two stea-
Oily every day without a little
oil, something to help it over
the rough places. Yet you
are letting your valuable little
time piece wear itself out, sim
ply for want Of "A little atten-
ton. 1t is our business to
take care Of your watch. Only
expert workmen are employed
for that purpose, and what We
do is weI!-donc. All compIi-
Gated work finds its way to our
workshop, let Us have some OF
your easy work also. Don't
got into the habit Of bringing
it to US after il has been
through the hands of numer-
Gus others; it will be cheaper
for you 10 have il dono woIl in

George Hampshaw Drowned.

George Hampshaw, well known
here, was drowned in the middle
fork of Clearwater on Thursday,
September "a. He, with two 9TH
ers was engaged in getting out a
drive of logs for Pings sawmill at
Stuart, near the Three Devils, 25
miles above Stuart, and in some
way the skiff capsized. The other
two got ashore, but Mr.. Hamp-
shaw was driven by the force of
the swift current onto a rock
where he remained for some little
time, his companions ashore hail
ing him to stay there until they
could rescue him. Suddenly he
disappeared and was never seen
again. The river was dragged for
two days without avail. The
river at that point is q series of
rapids and the Three Devils are
three large rocks in midstream.
Mr.. Hampshaw came here about
two years ago from the Palouse
country and was a single man,
aged about 35 years.

A Simple Explanation.

Mr.. EDIToR:-Some time ago we
noticed piece in the FREE PRESS
entitled "Who has that money!"
and since that time we have been
taking the question home and ap-
plying it to our own county in re-
gard to the county hospital tax,
which we have been paying for sc
many years. We notice in the
commissioners reports where or.
ders are drawn on the current ex.
pense fund for maintaining the
county paupers, but never on the
hospital fund. Now the question
is, who has that hospital tax
which should amount to at least
$1,000 per year. If it is added to
the current expense fund, our of
ficials are obtaining money under
false pretenses and should be pun
ished according to law. If it il
put in hospital sinking fund, w,
would be glad to know what the
object in view is; and if there cal
be no satisfactory answer given, i
should be investigated and the peo
pie should not pay the tax. Viii
some one throw light on the sub
ject. A CRANK.
