answer to Judge Peters for his conduct in
this city. His Ellsworth tiue came II little
cheaper, but not much. 1t cost him
s14.1S.
Friends of Mabel Monaghan will be
pleased to learn that her Advancement in
music is beginning to attract general
attention. On Easter Sunday she sang
at the Methodist church in Auburn dale;
she has sung twice at the Congregational
church at CliftondaIe, and twice at the
Mt. Bellingham Methodist church in
Chelsea. Last week she sang at re-
ception given by c. II. Bond, at his ele-
CANT home at 2S Commonwealth avenue,
Boston. That she possesses voice of
rare quality is attested by the constantly
increasing demands to hear it.
Robert b. Rogerson, a veterinary sur
geon who forgot to pay hotel bill in Ban
gor when he left there about year ago,
paid it in Ellsworth Friday. The hotel has
been trying to collect that little bill for
some time, but somehow the collectors
did not have much success in locating the
doctor like the Irishman's flea, when
|
there; once they thought they had him,
but they didn't. When the Bangor hotel
proprietors learned last week hat Roger
son was in Ellsworth they promptly no.
titled Sheriff Hooper and City Marshal
Silvy to arrest him. But the doctor
showed his knowledge of and respect for
the Ellsworth officers by surrendering
hi a Ill II
test. The original bill was something
like slS; it cost Rogerson $50 to settle ii.
Bert CIough, of Surry, WAS before
Judge Peters of the municipal court Fri
day, charged with assault on Capt. John
O. kief. The trouble between Clough
and Capt. kief has long been brew ing,
and grew out of a dispute over bill.
Friday they met on Water street, and
an alteration ensued. No blows We're
struck, but War-like demonstrati ions
were made by Clough, such as the re-
moyaI OF his coat, the doubling of his
fists, the fiourishing of his arms and an
advance toward Capt. kief in menacing
attitude, all of which were construed by
bystanders to indicate that Ciough was
looking for fight. They thereupon laid
restraining hands upon him, and blood
shed was averted. Capt. kief meanw hile
maintained lgnitied compo4ure. Judge
Peters recognized the beligerency of
Clough, and fined him Il and costs,
amounting to about 5. The fine WAS
reluctantly paid.

CASCADE ITEMS.

Last Saturday and Sunday were
glorious days for our hamlet. That
rollicking, jolly mass of picknickers
was indeed grand sight to behold.
In the forenoon the Edgemont con-
tingent arrived and made headquar.
ters at the Grand View hotel, closely
followed by the Hat Creek aud Chey-
enne people. By this time Hot Springs
parties began to roll in. The cool
morning made many think it would be
too cool for picnicking, but by noon
old sol came out and the day could
not possibly have been finer.
Many kinds of games were INDUCED
in and for the further amusement
Isaac Withrow had put up his merry
go-round, and Newt. Miller who ran
an ice cream and lemonade stand in
the club room opened up the bowling
alley.
The horse race did not come off be-
cause the promoters of the race had
not provided for purse and, although
there were a number of racers, they
would not try their steeds for nothing.
The dance at night was we'll attended.
Over 30 tickets were sold and there
was never a more orderly crowd to-
gether.
On Sunday the Hot Springs bicyle
brigade came in by 10 o'clock. soon
followed by number of vehicles
loaded with 4th of July patriots, the
greater part of whomhad spring chick
en- and green peas at Fred dNoerenberg's
hostelry, the rest picnicking at the
springs or on the hill sides. A little
storm of hail, rain and wind made it
look gloomy for the bikers to go home,
but they were soon as dry and good as
ever.
A little black fly or bug is doing i'm
mense damage around here to all kinds
of garden truck. and it looks as though
there will not be much cabbage or tur-
nips raised. The little bugs eat every
thing and don't let up on one plant AS
long as there is sap in it. Good cheap
remedies would be in order.

Map of the Kootenai.

The most complete and artistic map
of the rich mining region of the KoO.
tenai and adjacent territory in Wash.
ington and British Columbia, has lust
been published by the Northern Pacific
railway. It is just what is needed by
those going to that country or who de-
sire to study and know about it.
The map is made in relief, is 25xlS
inches in size between borders and has
in connection with ton the same
page-two smaller maps that show the
relation of the region to the world at
at large.
The principal drainage of the coun-
try is laid down in blue, the trails and
roads are shown, the railways plainly
indicated, the names of important
towns printed in large black letters,
and the topography is represented in
brown. As far as the ore deposits are
known they are indicated in general
way by red lettering.
The country shown upon the map
includes particularly, the Slocan, Koo-
tenai lake, Cariboo creek, Deer Park,
Nelson, Salmon river, Trail or Rossland
and the Boundary creek regions. 1t
shows the Arrow lakes and the Lar
deau country and some portions of the
Okanogan region.
The map is compiled from reliable
and official data and shows the mining
district sub b-divisions and the eleva
tions of the mountains and lakes.
The opposite of the sheet contains
an accurate statement and decriptiou
of the country, showing its discovery
and development to the present time

harm himself or his neiehbors, because

harm himself or his neighbors, because
they say, you never know what these
people will do. But the man whom we
do know what he will do, that he will
deliberately pour stuff down his throat
that always steals bis reason and too
often makes him criminal, is allowed
his liberty and to repeat again and
again the frightful experiment until
he either commits some crime that
puts him Under lock and key, or else
death ends the scene.
tell you my friends, we who su-
pinely allow such things to be will not
be held guiltless. Do what you ca n
about restraing the seller, it's high
time more attention was paid to the
man who makes the traffic possible;
the man who has cultivated such a
taste for liquor that they will go to
any length, defy any law, sneak into
any by-way, yea, forgetting his man
hood or that he was made to walk
erect, will get down on all fours and
crawl into any loathsome place to get
the stuff.
Already there is movement along
this line, Switzerland and Austria
leading the van. New York City is
trying farm colony, but the expert
ment is too young to draw any con-
clusions from. Nor have we in this
country any proper form of asylum
for either class of cases, and it is an
imperative need that should receive
early attention.
10 place drunkenness where it be-
longs, on the criminal list and make
the penalty for the first offense equal
at least to that of asking for crust of
bread in some states, a years impris-
onment, would be wonderful back
bone stitfener for many who think they
cannot pass saloon without stop
ping.
To stop judges and juries Tightening
sentences justly due, "because the
poor fellow was drunk and didn't
know what he was DOING" would be
another step in the right direction
He had no business getting drunk, he
no doubt knew liquor made him de-
mon. A man has no moral or legal
right to voluntarily make himself as
dangerous as wild beast. and if he
does it justice demands that no part of
the penalty be remitted for his crime
on the grounds that he "didn't know
! what he was doing"
And if he cannot help going to en-
cess, l ask you in humanity's name
what we are thinking of to allow him
to so do, to ruin his life, destroy the
happiness of all related to him, per-
haps, to meet his Maker, his hands red
with his brothers or his own blood.
We who rejoice in natural appetites
and unweakened Wills need to consider
this matter very carefully, lest when it
is too late we hear the question,
"Where is thy brother?" and as we
turn sorrowfully away realize that no
man liveth to himself, for whether we
live or whether die, I've are not our
own,' but have been bought with a
price" by One who has commanded.
''Love thy neighbor as thyself."

LOWER nonsEnEAp NOTES.

Last week James Mcfarland went
over to Pine Ridge agency on busi-
ness trip and took with him his and
9-year-old-boys. On his way home
he became lost and wandered around
on the bad lands for two days without
water and little to eat. They finally
came across some ranchers who di-
rected them and satisfied their thirst
and hunger.
The Annual Sunday School Picnic
association has issued call for meet
ing in Oelrichs in the Oelrichs Times
building tomorrow at . O'Clock.
There should be some one present
from each Sunday school in the coun-
ty. The picnic is to be held in Peter
sons grove some time in August.
The celebration in Peterson's grove
on the 9TH was grand success. Peo-
pie began to gather at an early hour
and by 10 o'clock there were hundreds
of people from all parts of the county.
Three stands supplied the people with
confectionery, one by Jim Butterman
of the Falls, one by Connor of Hot
Springs and one by the ladies for a
Sunday school library. They we're all
we'll patronized. A good program was
we'll rendered, the w. G. Flat people
helping out with the singing which was
appreciated by all. The following was
the program:

The rest of the afternoon was then
given up to horse racing, foot racing
and kindred sport. Every one seemed
to enjoy the day and the grove which
is the finest in the county, was nicely
decorated. 1t was delightful day and
the big gathering of happy, prosperous
and contented people properly cele-
brated Uncle Sans 121st birthday.
Doc Gillespie's little black mare won
the horse race.

Air PhOtOgraphy.

The experiments to be made by the
United States Weather Bureau in air
photography are expected to throw
light on many phenomena but little
understood at present. Very little is
known about the way in which the air
currents run. The nature of hurri-
cane, such as sometimes runs up the
Atlantic coast at this season is COM
pretended in general way, but mys-
terry envelops the working mechanism
of the storm. No one can show how a
whirling tornado plucks a chicken
clean, drives a piece of timber through
a man, and carries baby mile
unhurt. In order to ascertain how
the air flows over houses, mountains
and through bridges, little model OF
each will be placed before camera,
and an imitation breeze directed
against it, and its movements photo
graphed.

"reminiscences OF Dickens.

George Dolby, manager OF Charles
Dickens on one of his reading tours in
this country, is still living, and the
correspondent of the Chicago Record
reports at length some of Dolby's
"reminiscences. Among other things
the quondam manager says: "He
was the kindest hearted man ever
have known. Many and many time
while on tour we came across old as
sociates of his who were down on their
luck. Dickens would say to me after
the reading, Joey, let me have EGO in
crisp, new bank notes, and I want to
be alone tomorrow from IL to g. I
knew what this meant. He had in
vited his old friends to call upon him
at this hour, and such friends didn't
go away poorer.
dickens was fond of reading his
own books. Once in Liverpool, where
we had an otf-night, / was obliged to
leave him to himself for an evening.
He asked me to call at a booksellers
and send something to read. l asked
him what he would like, and he re-
piled, Anything of Sir Walter Scott's
or my own purchased Old Curios-
ity Shop and took it to him myself,
whereat he was delighted, saying he
had not read the book for years. 1
was curious to see the effect of his own
work on him, and upon my return was
amused to find him laughing inn
moderately at certain incidents in the
book. He explained, however, that
he was not laughing at his own crea-
tions as much as at the recollections
Of the circumstances under which
certain passages and incidents had
been written"

Rich WITHOUT Money.
st. Louis Republic,

st. Louis Republic.
Away up in the Arctic Circle lives an
old man who is very rich, and yet he
never sees dollar or any kind of mo-
ney or representative of money. Some
time ago DIR. Sheldon Jackson, general
agent of the Bureau of Education of
Alaska, on board the Bear, touched at
Indian Point, Siberia, There he found
the principal native of the village, Ko-
harri by name, trader noted all along
the coast. Writing of the old trader,
Mr.. Jackson says:
"He has a little frame whale house,
filled from floor to ceiling with tobac-
CO, flour and looking-glasses which he
has obtained from the whalers and
from which he supplies the country
for hundreds of miles around. This
man has been known to have as much
as 5000 worth OF whalebone in his
storehouse at one time. He does a
business of probably 100000 q year,
and yet not single coin of gold or
silver, nor a single bank note or bank
check is used, nor are any books kept
All transactions are by barter furs
and whalebone being exchanged for
tobacco, -four and whisky. This whole
sale merchant of the North Siberian
coast can neither read nor write, nor
can any one associate with him. AL
though so wealthy, he lives in an ordi-
nary tent and sleeps on the ground on
q pile of raindeer SKINS"
