row escape from drowning while
attempting to ford the Moyea on
horseback a few days ago. The
horse and rider went down and the
swift current carried them down
stream. They would not have got
ten out had not workmen on the
bridge came to the rescue, throwing
Mr.. Wright rope. The horse also
had to be hauled out with ropes. 1t
1t was a close call for Mr.. Wright
and we presume he is glad the
bridge is in so that fording of the
Moyea is unnecessary.
The past three days have been
lovely enough for a southern state.
The thermometer has hardly been
down to freezing for the past two
weeks until last night. The warm
Chinook winds have taken most
of the snow off and the hills facing
the south are in many places bare.
We are having fine winter.
The Moyea bridge is COM
pleted. Some claim that it is a
first-class bridge and others say
that it is not properly constructed,
and that they will ask the commits
siontrs not to appropriate any
money for it.

WIN Paw Him wen to Confess.

PHILADELPHIA, March 24.--Eforts
are being made by several Philade1-
phia and New York publishers to in
duce Murderer Fl. H. Holmes to make
a full confession, and to tell the story
of his life. One New York publisher
began with an offer of 81, 900 for a
truthful and detailed story of his
criminal cal eer, and gradually in
creased it to SIS, 900 because of the in
difference of the condemned man.
While Holmes was considering this
last proposition, rival New York
newspaper offered him $500 for the
same thing. It is not known whether
he has accepted the offer, but he has
been doing a good deal of writing
lately, the character of which he has
concealed.
