LETTER TO W. C. JOHNSON,
NEWTOWN.


 Dear Sir: You understand grinding wheat, buckwheat, rye, oats and corn. We understand grinding whitehead and white-zinc. The two sorts of grinding are not much alike. Very likely oats and wheat behave very differently in the mill, and you manage them diferently-we know very little about your work; don't need to; we'd rather depend on you.
 But we paint your house and mill, and |out-buildings |; perhaps you'd be glad to know about grinding paint for some peo- pie mix their paint with stick in tub.
 We use lead and ztnc-nothing else. And our zinc is as tough as your oats. Tub mixers imagine they mix it. They don't; they can't. Takes grinding to mix lead and zinc.
 They are both white. Tub mixers don't know 1t but tub-mixed lead and zinc is a streak of one alongside of streak of the other.
 We grind as you grind; and our paint is lead and zinc ground together, mixed intimately: 1t Is neither lead nor zinc, but load and zinc the lead is lost, and the zinc Is lost :; each lost in the other; both lost in the mixture. Lead chalks and zinc peels; lead and zinc ground to- gether hang on and protect each other.
 We take care of your mill outside you take care of it inside.
 26 Yours truly, F. w. Devoe & Co.

should Have an Evening Train

We believe the time has come when
an evening train from Spokane TO this
place could be run at profit TO the
company and accommodation Of large
number Of Spokane business men who
would bring their families here during
the warm season il they had tranSpor-
tatiOn facilities from the city after bust
ness hours in the evening and TO the
city in the morning, with a low rate of
fare for the round trip. Ceur d'Alene
is the only desirable resort within easy
reach of Spokane, the fishing is good
through the season and the evenings
are cool and pleasant. features that are
sought by the tired business man who
wishes to escape the heat and monot
onous routine of city life for rest
and recreation. Nature has made this
the most beautiful and most desirable
summer resort within reach of Spokane.
and 1t now remains for the Northern
Pacific to take the matter up and turn
the tide of summer tourists aud pleas
ure seekers this way. In addition to
those who would come here from Spo-
kane, many travelling men and through
tourists would run out from the city
and spend the night here if they could
do so. We believe that with proper at
tention the enterprise can be made sue.

pOstofiice at the rear. The postofiice Is
conducted by John F. Yost, who carries
q general line OF merchandise in con.
nection with the Office.
After stripping the show cases Of jew
elry and cutlery to the value Of about
500, the postofIice safe was visited. A
hole was drilled near the lock, in which
was insirte1 large amount Of powder.
The sound Of the explosion was mufsied
by piiing -four over the safe. The ex-
plosion awakened A. ii. Dngan, who
was sleeping In the next building. He
gave the alarm and the robbers took
flight. Sheriff Bradbury and Deputy
Dyer gave chase. The timber where
the thieves took fefuge Is 80 dense that
it is almost impossible to penetrate it.
The hills were soon surrounded by 30
men, all armed, who are guarding every
avenue Of escape. Sheriff Bradbury
has offered 500 for their capture.
