New Kinds of Wheat.

This season, l., c. Preston, who re-
sides at Weston, says the Weston Leader,
tried new variety of seed wheat on part
of his farm near Helix. 1t is known as
the Russian Red, and resembles the Cox
wheat and California Glory somewhat in
appearance. He obtained the seed from
the Moscow, Idaho, section, where Rus
sian Red has been found to yield about
10 bushels to the acre more than the or
binary varieties. Mr.. Preston had the
same experience with it here and the
quality is fine. He put in II bushels of
the seed Oh u acres and obtained a crop
of $50 bushels, or about SO bushels to
the acre. This is Is bushels more than
his red chalf yielded, and lac now con-

Life in Alaska.

The idea is predominant with many
that lhe road to certain wealth is trip
to the Alaskan gold fields, where few
days work with scoop shovel will give
"a return of thousands, if not millions.
All men who go there do not get rich,
according to recent communication
from that frozen region.
Lewis ]. Ganswich, OF Tacoma, with
three companions, hearing OF untold
wealth went to Alaska about two years
ago. Mr.. Ganswich left his wife and
sister in Tacoma, since which time his
sister, Miss Mary Ganswick, has taken
up her residence in Walla Walla. and at
present is engaged in the family of DR..
+. f. Shaw as domestic. The wife and
sister became concerned for Mr.. Cans
wich, not having heard of him for some
time, and despaired OF ever seeing him
again, when a short time ago a letter
came to the wife in the well known
hand writing of the husband. The con-
tents of the letter were forwarded to
Miss Ganswich in this city.
Mr.. Ganswich relates Il tale of terrible
suffering, having had his nose and ears
badly frozen, and his companions also
did not escape abe rigorous climate. The
four men have been prospecting ever
since going to Alaska, having traversed
territory now said to be rich in nuggets,
but up to the time of writing no fortunes
nor yet more than enough to keep them
of the ghttering gold had been obtained.
A short supply of flour and few dried
potatoes comprised the rations for
months and the suffering endured was
beyond description. These four men
were all strong and hearty when they
left for the gold fields, priding them
selves on being capable of withstanding
any climate, Ganswich, who is a phys
zeal giant, having been on the Tacoma
police force, states that they are now
only sem blance of their former selves
Mr.. Ganswich and his companions are
going to remain in Alaska while longer
to still tempt fortune, and, after endur-
ing such hardships, they richly deserve

on Saturday he was brought to Colfax.
The prisoner talks freely of his recent
crimes, acknowledges taking the horse,
and regrets that he did not have his
Winchester, with which he thinks he
could have killed all four of his pursuers
and escaped to Montana, Beyond the
ststement made to Sheriff Sims, that ii
he wished to know anything about him
to write to the Atlanta, Ga, business
college and inqhire about the red
headed kid" he will say nothing about
his antecedents, past life or whereabouts.
He is quite muscular, nearly six feet tall,
has very red hair, and claims to be only
q years of age. That he is possessed OF
that nerve and power to endure suffer
ing is evidenced by the fact that he does
not show the pain which his wounds
must give him.
On Monday Herbert was taken before
Justice Lennox for preliminary exam
nation, which he waived upon advice OF
his attorney, Major Fox of Tekoa, and
was held in the superioa court in bonds
OF $500 in default OF which ne was re-
turned to the jail.
1t developed Wednesday that Herbert
has a wife, who is expected to arrive any
day from st. Louis. The fact was dis
closed by Herbert requesting Sheriff
Sims to meet herat the train which came
through Thursday morning, as he had
written her while in Wyoming to meet
him in Spokane, and thought she would
pass through en- route that day.-Com-

$40 on TIT Kendrick bank, signed by NJ
C. Normyle. The bank officials refused
to cash the check and he made an effort
to get other parties to cash it, but with
out success. Finally he purchased a
suit of clothes from J. Alexander and
worked off his bogns check. Telegraphic
communication with Mr.. Normyle estab-
lished the forgery of the check. When
brought before Probate Judge Stookey
he pleaded guilty and asked that SEN
tence might be given him at once, but
all tn e court could do was to bind him
over to the district court, which con-
venes September 18th, when he will pay
the penalty of his crime. The young fell
low gave his age at 35, and stated that
he had been celebrating his birthday
ever since the End of this month, that
he was crazed with drink when he COM
mitted the forgery, and he wanted to
warn all young men of the evils of drink.
He has been a miner at Pierce City for
several years, and at one time deputy
sheriff of Shoshone county for that dis
trict. He claims Kendrick as his home
Lewiston Tribune.
