Kris Krinkle arrived in town a
few days ago and proceeded directly
to Roscoe Smiths drug store. 1t
took old Kris but little while to
decide that here was the place to
make his headquarters and he soon
had all preliminaries satisfactorily
arranged with the enterprising pro-
prietor. He at once turned the
store into large bazaar SO he
could display his goods to advan-
tage, and then he employed force
of clerks to assist Mr.. Smith. Kris

was lying in a very critical condi-
ton at his home ON Three Creek in
Owyhee county. Grover Marlatt
came to this place Sunday evening
for DR.. Smith, having made the ride
of 1872 miles in just eight and one
half hours, by change Of horses.
DIR. Smith departed that night for
Mr.. Pence's bedside and all trust
that he arrived there Ia time to re-
lieve his patient. Mr.. Pence is suf-
fering from a severe attack of pneu-
monia, Iater-Dr. Smith returned
from Three Creek last night and
reports Mr.. Fences condition bet
ter when he left him, though very
serious. Relays of teams were sta
toned along the road for the Doctor,
who made the drive in II hours
from this place-arriving at Mr..
Pence's house in just 209 hours
from the time of the departure OF
the messenger, Mr. Marlatt. This
should be recorded as wonderfully
fast travelling by horsepower.

where to buy it are the now all
absorbing questions. A glance at
the BULLETINS we'll filled adver-
Using columns will give the key to
the solution of the problems. 1t
may be depended on that the mer-
chant who advertises has something
good to sell, and that he will make
it worth the while for intending
buyers to visit his store. Try Hell.
