Rapid River District.

M. L. Goldsmith, who has been
inspecting his quartz claims in the
Rapid River district, returned last
week. He says very important
developments have been made
there this winter, and that very
rich camp is already assured on
that question.
The Sweet and Robens coal dis
coveries are in this district. The
2 & |. N. railroad sent en- expert
into this coal field few weeks
ago. He has now returned and
made payment for an option on
the property, and a thorough ex-
ploration will be made immediately
with,a diamond drill.
The p. 4 l. N. road is actually
engaged in construction work on
the branch of their road that leads
to the Rapid River district and to
Salmon river. There is no secret
about this extension to Salmon
river and it is more than likely
that work will be going on, either
on the railroad grade, or for a
wagon road to be built by the
railroad company this winter.

Once again Kaiser Wilhelm does the
diplomatic thing. Recently the kaiser
gladdened the hearts of 500 Lithuanian
girls by accepting petition which they
sent to him when they heard that ar
engagements were making for the fall
imperial hunt in the northern provinces
OF Prussia. The Lithuanian girls are
famous horsewomen, and on this
ground they petitioned the kaiser that
he accept the services of 500 of their
number as his guard of honor while he
remained in their province. In offering
themselves for this duty they stipulated
that their sovereign should rely upon
them and permit of no other bodyguard.
The province of Lithuania is the most
northern of the empire. The women
would make a perfect type of amazon
and are mostly descendants of the race
that became famous under the ,Japel.

Residence Burned Down.

The residence Of Harley Steph-
ems, together with all its contents,
were totally destroyed by fire on
December 20, on his reservation
farm near The Duties The fire is
supposed to have originated
through detective fiuo. Harley
and his family were visiting with
bis parents near Grangeville ut the
time A neighhor who had Charge
of the house during Harley's abb
sence, built a fire in the morning,
but soon after, decided to leave for
a few hours and put out the fire in
the stove with water. bat it is sup
posed that the fire had already
caught on the roof at the time OF
his departure. Not thing was
saved. This loss is severe one to
Harley, as he was getting his
place nicely lixe | up and hal put
all his available means into i'm
provements upon his fine ranch,
which is one of the very best on the
reservation. We took dinner
there with George Brown last
month and had occasion to see
what a young man can do in new
country, for his cellars were piled
to the roof with the finest kind If
farm produce, showing his industry
on new farm. The young man
has plenty of energy and we miss
our guess if he doesn't soon build
a better residence than the one he
has just lost.
