To prevent Group, begin in time The
first symptom is hoarseness; this is
soon followed by a peculiar rough
cough, which is easily recognized and
will never be forgotten by one who has
heard it. The time to act is when the
child first becomes hoarse. If Cham
berlain's Cough Remedy is freely given,
all tendency to Group will soon disap-
pear. Even after the croupy cough has
developed, it will prevent the attack.

The Kootenai herald. [volume] (Kootenai, Idaho) 1891-1904, 1902-01-17

The outlook is decidedly b right
for better times in the Kootenai
Valley next spring. In the early
spring it is believed that work will
start on the new Great Northern
road bed between Bonners Ferry
and point west of Maple, dis
lance of II to Is miles. There is
some heavy work on the line, in
Guiding long trestle just west of
this place, and two or three tunnels.
Near Moravia there is a cut 35 feet
deep and half mile long. 1t will
take large force all summer to
complete the job. Then there will
be two producing mines-the Con-
tsnental and the Buckhorn, whose
pay rolls will make a material diff
ference to this locality, and last,
but not the least, the saw mill prop
osition. Large plants are gsing in
wherever there are bodies of good
timber-which we have tributary
and there can be no doubt that our
turn is near at hand. We are get
ting many good settlers, and, in
many ways, we can face the future
with very hopeful anticipations.

Dubois is not Small.

A Washington special to the Salt
Lake Tribune says: Joseph Per-
rault, surveyor-general Of Idaho,
against whom the civil service COM
mission has direct some heavy
blows, has found defender in an
unexpected quarter. Senator Fred
T. Dubois. though Democrat, has
stepped into the fray in the inter
est of fair play and demands that
Perrault be given his day in court.
In regard to the matter be said to-
day:
my position in regard to federal
appointments is we'll understood.
| refused to interfere at all, because
| opposed the administration in
in power. Yet, of course, ] reserve
the right to object to any appoint
ment or the confirmation of any
appointee if unfit. In a case like
that of Perrault. | would feel it my
duty as senator from Idaho to see
that no injustice was done to any
Republicad official in the state. /
am expecting daily to be put in
possession of the facts showing the
surveyor-generals side Of the case,
as there certainly must be another
eide than that taken by the civil
service commission"
Senator Dubois did not say how
far he would be willing to 90 in
defense of the accused.

The Mail Order Graft.

THE dry goods dealers Of Boomers
Ferry lost $4,000 of nice, clean
cash trade last year which was Sc
cured by the mail order houses Of
Montgomery Ward & Co, Sears &
Roebuck, Marshall Field & Co.,
John Wannamaker and Spokane
concerns. 1t is safe to say that
$4,000 worth of this trade might
have been kept at home and the
money kept in the channels of trade
here. These figures are no dream.
The post Office at Bonners Ferry
issued over 100000 worth Of money
orders last year, more than half Of
which was for merchandise. While
we are not permitted to give depot
statistics, the amount paid out
there is not far behind post office
figures, to say nothing of the checks
sent, and goods brought in by peo-
pie making shopping trips to out
side points. The HERALD believes
that a large portion of this trade
could be kept at home by judicious
management. Another thing-this
mail order business is growing.
People are getting educated up to
TO it they are getting onto some
things that the home merchants
would be better off if they did not
understand too we'll. The mer-
chants of a town are very foolish
to allow their customers to get in
the habit of patronizing mail order
houses.
The bulk of the mail order bust
ness is done in light articles like
dry goods. The mail order house
uses every scheme of Advertising
to reach the peOnle. III they nave
bargains they manage to let the
people know it. OF course their
business is well-managed, their
stock is good, and their prices are
changed to suit the markets, but
advertise they must, and adver-
tise they do. The Boomers Ferry
dealers in dry goods "saves that ex-
pense"
But what the HERALD started ont
to say, as an item of news, was that
there is something like $4,000
worth of nice, clean, cash trade go
ing out of town that our home mer-
chants ought to corral and make a
nice profit upon.

Farmers Have Done Well.

Fifty cent wheat is of course not
so good for farming section as
dollar wheat, but it has been shown
in the wheat belt this year that
even with a lower price than fifty
cents the wheat farmers have done
we'll.
AS rule the farmers of the Pa
louise, the Walla Walla and the
Big Bend districts have done we'll.
All reports are to the effect that
these sections are enjoying a period
of real prosperity. Farm crops
have generally been good. Fair
prices have oeen obtained for most
products, and the balance for the
year shows that the aver age farmer
has made money. A good many
mortgages have been raised and
other old debts squared up, so that
the farmer has good reason to look
forward with hope to the coming
year.
This general feeling of content
ment and confidence is one of the
best possible things for the country.
1t braces people up and gives bet
ter tone to business of every sort
1t makes the community Look bet
ter and more inviting to the would
be settler and is certain to result in
su ostantial growth and improve

The silly twaddle of the Silver
Blade ia attempting to make a
political issue out os the Forest Re-
serve matter is entirely in keeping
with the calibre of that paper,
Subscribers of the Blade must en-
Joy these frequent presumptious on
their ignorance. Every person of
ordinary intelligence knows that
people of Idaho, regardless of party,
do not favor these reserves. while
nationally both parties are square
ly on record as favoring them-and
there you are. Forest Reserves are
bad enough but in the light of the
records of both political parties on
the subject, it adds nothing to re-
lief of the public that political
0latherskites turn them to polit-
zeal account.

 This reasoning failed, as the sequel showed, to convince Syndon. He went to Etretat and killed NJ. David. He also talked. He told of his relations with Mime. David. Being informed that the family attributed the mur- der to quarrel arising over his con duct to the Davids' daughter he said:

WILD WESTERN BLUFF.
How Four Daredevil Montana Troop- CTS Made seventy-Five Fili-
 pinos Run Away

What is regarded as one of the tall- est .sbluffs'' on record furnished Capt. Edgar Russel, chief signal officer in the Philippines during the insurrec- tion, with a story which he tells as. an example of western nerve.
 i've were outside of Manila in some little scrap" said the captain, "and about 75 natives were lying in trench ahead of us, shooting away merrily, but not hitting anybody. By and by I noticed a little disturbance in our front. Presently four Montana troop CTS trotted out of our lines and started straight for the Filipinos. Every ybody. looked at them with wonder, and wait ed to see them all killed. Bullets whis- tied all around them, but they never halted. Slowly, just at a trot, they logged on toward the enemy. The na- tives fired and fired, but for some un- known reason did not hit. On and on went the quartet, disdaining cover.
 At last there was a shout, and, to our utter astonishment, we beheld the 75 Filipinos suddenly jump out of their trenches and take to their heels in mad flight The nerve of the Montana troopers was too much for them. When they all had fled, throwing heir rifles away as they ran, the troopers came back, their arms full of guns. That is what the army has com to call a Mon tana bluff It's the sort of nerve that lets a man open a jackpot. on pair of deuces"

BOND IN A PICTURE:
Valuable Paper Found by German Woman in an Old Daguerreo-
 type Frame.

The treasury department lately re- ceived from United States Consul General Guenther, at Frankfort-on- the-Main, Germany, United States 5 bond for $500, which he forwarded for redemption for the benefit of Mrs. E Martha Schnell, an old woman living at Bornheim, reports the Washington Star.
 He writes that Mrs. Schnell has fad for collecting daguerreotypes, and recently in cleaning one she had had about ten yearsa she accident ally broke the glass covering the por- trait, disclosing the bond, which had been neatly folded and placed in its hiding place many years before.
 Mrs Schnell was about to throw 1t away, but was persuaded to take 1t to the United States consul to ascer- tain if it had any value.
 The portrait is faded beyond pos sible recognition, but the old case shows that it was made in Worces- ter, Mass.
 The bond is of the issue of July !, 1867, series c, and has 28 coupons attached, showing that the last one was removed for interest due Janu- ary l, 1873. Interest on the bond, however, ceased on April 6, 1879.
 United States Treasurer Roberts forwarded to Mir. Guenther for Mrs. Schnell government warrant for S6S7.S1, covering the principal and in- terest to Washington Post.

One Chicaro Mendicant Uses Broom to Mislead Policemen Who
 May Be Watching.

sBeggars are the smoothest people on earth" said North side police man. standing on tie corner in the shade of .a tall flat building the other afternoon. to a Chicago Tribune re- porter. Just watch that fellow across the street He looks like a janitor or laboring man, doesn't he |? We'll, he is a beggar, and mighty crafty one, too"
 The person indicated was apparent ly dusting off the sidewalk in front of an apartment house with an old, worn cut broom. His hair was gray ana his clothes had seen much wear.
 'sThere comes a man." continued the policeman, and if that fellow doesn't know I'm watching him 1 will show you his game.
 The old fellow with the broom got exceedingly busy as the pedestrian approached him. He swept the walk back and forth in brisk fashion until the passeroy reached his side and then quit work and caught the stran- gers step, following him for 25 or 30 feet. The pedestrian was half in clined to stop, but, changed his mind, and with a decisive nod of the head hurried on.
 Do you see through the trick the policeman asked. That fellows broom is his disguise. He is an old timer and I have watched him work a dozen times. He selects fashionable residence districts ofsthe city, begins to sweep the walk i'll front of some big apartment house, and when the men and women come along he pours his pitiful plea into their ears. If a policeman happens to be watching him and he is aware of the fact he simply keeps on sweeping while pedes- trians pass and then changes his loca- tion. He. certainly has an ingenious brain and imagine the game pays him pretty we'll"

Fhat Much of a second Missing and Scientists Cannot Tell Where

i if one grain of sand on the shore of the ocean were lost, and scientists were to spend years in trying to find it, they would be attempting task resembling that to which leading as- tronomers of England and France are now devoting themselves, says the Toronto (Ont.) Mail and Empire. One-sixteenth of second is missing, and no one can tell where it has gone. Between the suns time, as recorded at Greenwich, and as under stood at Paris, there is that brief and seemingly unimportant dis crepancy. No expense is being spared to trace the missing fraction. A spe- cial building has been erected at Paris, costly instruments installed, corps of mathematicfans engaged, and a process that may take years to complete has been commenced. The inaccuracy is more important than will appear to the lay mind. Longi- tude is calculated on the basis of Greenwich time. It determines the boundaries of many countries. A slight variation of time may change the nationality of thousands of peo- pie. The pursuit of the missing frac- tion of second is therefore of worldwide importance.

A Medieval Me a,aphone


 A curiosity of great antiqpity is still to be seen within St. Andrews church. at Willoughton, near Gainsborough, says a Sunday magazine. This is a quaint speaking trumpet, with an ob- seure early history dating back toethe times of the Knights Templar. In shape it resembles French horn, and is more than five feet long. having a bell at the end of the graduated tube It was formerly six feet in length. but is now telescoped at the joints where the metal has apparently decayed Tradition declares it was form erls sounded from the tower to summon aid in case of need, as when blown at : height the weird, deep notes the trum pet produced could be heard at great distance away in bygcne days. It is believed that this curious instrumenf has often been used to call together the villagers. thus dispensing with the usual bell, and to give additional power and strength to the choir, being prob ably used by the chief singer, as the trumpet intensifies vocal sound to a marked degree.-st.

Latest Parisian Romance Involves Question of Lovers Resentment and Rights Under the "Un-
 written Law"

# Here is the latest Parisian romance. The characters are:
 Lucien David, well-to-do Parisian. Mme. David, his wife, who is 35 and the mother of three children, one of them r.
 Jean Syndon, painter of promise, whose pictures have been praised by Bonhat, Jules Lefebvre and NJ. Se- delmeyer, the art dealer, and who had been giving drawing lessons to the Davids' 14-year-old daughter. He is 30.
 The story opens with M. and Mime. David walking near Etretat, where they were spending the summer. Up tc them comes Syndon and kills M. David with a revolver.
 Then the question of his motive came up. Everybody concerned in the case seems to have talked. Syndon's janitress talked.
 "He is such nice young man," she said. ''He would be all right if it were not for that yelled woman who called to see him every day. She stopped coming here six weeks ago. After that letter in a feminine handwriting arrived for him every Eay."
 It was just six weeks before that . that the Davids went to the country. Syndon's chum talked.
 ''Last Thursday (three days before the murderl Syndon rushed into the studio out of breath and, exhibiting the keenests emotion" he said: Do you know what he has just done?' he asked. He has broken his cane upon my back
