Port Hill Items.

County Surveyor Ashley is here
surveying the long talked of wagon
road to the Continental mine. AS
near as can be estimated the road
will be about twenty-five miles long.
Forest fires destroyed the build

1t was not Smallpox.

There was goOd-sized smallpox
scare in town Wednesday evening
and Thursday morning. when it
was reported that Steve Rainforth,
living about two miles east Of town,
was down with the dread disease.
Steve had been working for Com
missioner Bush on the county road
and hal had suspicious SYMPTOMS
and was sent last Saturday to DR..
Barker for examination. The doc
tor found certain eruptions but net
developed case of smallpox AS
precaution, however, he advised
the patient to go home and remain
secluded until the eruptions should
further develop, to make a sure
diagnosis. Wednesday evening a
party came in from the Rainforth
ranch and reported Steve down
with the real thing. Commissioner
Bush went up the following morn
ing to investigate and found the re-
port a mistake. All is we'll that
ends we'll, but we should think it
only proper courtesy to report all
cases of suspects to the town trus-
tees. Too much care can not be ex-
er ,ised. Should the disease get a
footing here, it would PROSTATE the
business of the town for weeks Ia
say nothing of the dangers to life
and health.

Ladies' Aid Annual Banquet.

The Ladies' Aid society of the
Presbyterian church gave their an
nual banquet last Wednesday eve
ming. The spread was something
exquisite and 1t would be hard to
imagine more successful function.
Previous to the banquet the
society had elected a new set of
officers and voted that the banquet
should be given semi-annually,
Instead of annually, as heretofore,
which vote was unanimously en-
dorsed by the gentlemen when they
arrived, the husbands of the mem
bers of the society being ex-officio
embers of the banquet). The
following were elected officers for
the next term of six months:
President.-Mrs. G. r. Gray.
Vice President.-Mrs. Phil Casey
Secretary.-Mrs. e. l.. Little.
Treasurer.-Mrs. S. D. Taylor.
Purchasing Committee. -Mrs.

many opportunities for pleasant
social meetings.

An Increase of Fake Shows.

The country is over-run with
fake shows these days aid Bonners
Ferry is getting its share of them.
Last week an aggregation under
the management of "Mr. Robert
Wingate" had. date in the hall
and played t?) to small crowd. A
dance after the close of the show
was announced as a drawing fea-
ture. This outfit was last seen
making its way back to Spokane in
pairs, stopping along the way pick
ing up few dimes by playing in
saloons to get back to Spokane.
On Wednesday night of this
week "The Sherrvs," man and
wife, advertised another show and
dance at the hall AS in the for
mer case the dance was to be the
principal drawing mum Der, but after
the show GU was over, Sherry, after
chewing-the rag awhile about his
hall rent and the license. announced
that there would be no dance.
1t is travelling fakes that iniure
the show business and make it diff
cult for meritorious troups to do
business.
First class theatrical companies
have certain we'll known AMI rec
ognized methods of advertis-
ing themselves. They court news
paper notices for instan ce, while a
fake shuns the newspaper to avoid
that very publicity that merit seeks.
The fake drops in unannounced,
distributes a few cheap dodgers,
rakes in the sheckles, fakes his
audience and tries to get out with
out paying his bills.
Managers of first class compan-
les attend to their license before
opening up The next manager
that fails to secure license before
opening the doors for business is
likely to form the acquaintance of
the police judge on an introduction
from the town marshal.

Death of V. W. Washburn.

1t is our painful duty this week
to chronicle the death of MIR. V. W.
Wash burn, the well-known ranch
er living near Copeland. His i'll
ness has been referred TO heretofore
in these columns, and his death
was not unexpected, but the news
was none the less unwelcome.
Death was due to dropsy of the
heart. The deceased was 81 years
of age and leaves a wife and a large
family of sons and daughters to
mourn his untimely death. He
was buried Sunday afternoon at
the b1rrial place near Copeland, a
large procession of friends an1 rel
atives following the remains to the
grave.
Mr.. Washburn was a member of
the L. o. o. F., but the distance
was too great for the local lodge to
attend in a body. Resolutions of
sorrow for the deal brother were
adopted and coincidence for the be-
reaved ones.
The death of Mr.. Washburn has
cast gloom throughout the valley
where he was so well known.

Mrs. Annie Edison, a Schoo
Teacher, ~Accomplishes
Remarkable Feat.
MAKES TRIP IN A BARREL
First Time Any One Ever Went Over
the Falls and Lived to Tell

Injured.

Niagara Falls, N. Y, Oct. 26.-Mrs.
Annie Edison Taylor, so years old. went
over Niagara Falls on the Canadian
side yesterday afternoon and survived,
q feat never before accomplished. and
indeed never attempted except in the
deliberate commission of suicide. She
made the trip In a barrel. Not only
did she survive, but she escaped with
out a broken bone, her only apparent
INJURIES being a scalp wound IL inches
long, a slight conclusion of the brain,
some shock to her nervous system and
bruises about the body. She was con-
scious when taken out Of the barrel.
The doctors in attendance upon her
said that though she was somewhat
hysterical, her condition Is not at all
serious, and hat she probably Will be
out of bed within a few days.
Mrs. Taylor's trip covered a mile ride
through the Canadian rapids before
she reached the brink Of the precipice.
Her barrel was twirled and toppled and
bufreted through those delirious waters,
but escaped serious contact with rocks.
The ride through the rapids occupied
eighteen minutes Half way to the
Maid of the Mist landing the barrel was
caught in what is known as the Maid
OF the Mist eddy, and held there until
II hoated so close to the shore that II
was reached by means Of a pole and
hook and drawn In upon the rocks.
Ten minutes later the woman was
lifted from the barrel, and half an hour
later she lay on a cot at her boarding
place in Niagara Falls on the Cana
dian side. She thanked God she was
alive; thanked all who helped her in
any way; said she would never do II
again, but that she was not sorry h
had done It, IF 1t would help her
financially"
She said she had prayed all during
the trip, except during "a few mo-
ments" Of Inconsistencies Just after
he descent.
The barrel in which Mrs. Taylor made
the Journey is ~ feet high and about
3 feet in diameter. A leather harness
and cushions inside protected her
body. Air was secured through a
rubber connected with a small opening
near the top Of the barrel.
Mrs. Taylor is q school teacher, and
