AN EXCITING WEEK
Fire Bugs and Stage Robbers Make
Things Interesting.
VIGILANCE COMMITTEE ORGAN
lied.

VIGILANCE COMMITTEE ORGAN
lied.
On Monday evening last, about
midnight, a daring attempt was
made by fire bug TO destroy the
town. The ice house in the rear
of and adjoining the Miners sa
loon was coal oiled and ignited,
and but for the fact that Mule
Davis was sleeping in an adjoining
room and was awakened by the
fash, another and much more Sc
rious conhagration than that
which the town has just ex-
perienced would surely have re-
suited. The surroundings are of
such character that had the fire
fairly started no effort on the part
of the citizens could have checked
it, there being barely room for
man to squeeze his body through,
much less fight fire. Fortunately,
Mr.. Davis realized instantly what
was the matter and succeeded in
putting out the fire with slight
exertiOn, but not before the walls
of the building were well charred.
A strong chinook wind was blow
ing at the time and the escape was
very fortunate. The smell of burn
ing coal oil was apparent as far
away as the school house, where
the members of the Masonic fra.
ternity and Eastern Stars were
celebrating st. Johns day, and
the alarm of fire soon brought the
gentlemen thereof to the scene.
The indignation aroused by this
dastardly attempt to fire the towl
resulted, at an early hour the next
morning in the formation of I
vigilantes committee, which is still
in existence and determined t.
weed out the vagrant elemen
which has for some time been ex
listing here without visible mean
of support.

Lewiston Stage Held Up.

On Wednesday morning the
community was again startled by
the news that the incoming Lew
iston stage had been held up on
the fiat between town and the
Pearson ranch on the proceeding
night. There were two passengers
aboard, one of whom Arnold Ger
Der was relieved Of $2S, and the
other Ben Rosenfelt, Frisco
drummer of 80 cents. Rosenfelt
had $50 on his person, but did not
cough it up. They took the whip
from the driver, Allie Vincent, and
ordered him to throw out the mail
sacks and go back to Denver.
Vincent threw them out the way
sack, which had nothing in it but
few papers, proceeded towards
Denver with the stage and passen-
gers for about 100 yards and then
headed for Grangeville without
resistance. The through mail in
the brass lock sack was not touched
The robbers were evidently green
hands at the business, judging by
their actions.
On Wednesday search was
made at the scene of the hold up
and upon the ground was found a
notice to leave the town, which
had been served upon half breed
named Frush. Frush was arrested
while on his way to Florence and
is now in the county Jail.
Later. = Another man named
Dan Hurley was arrested yester'
day on suspicion of holding up thu
stage with Frush.
