George Potter, who for several
months past has cut a wide swath as
a member of the Spokane club. a
society man and the manager of the
Sloane-Paine company's store, is
missing from the city, much to the
regret of a large number of creditors.
Mr.. Potter left the city about a
week ago, Just after Mr.. Sloane of the
SloanePafne company had discovered
he was Systematically overdrawing
his account.
At the time Mr.. Sloane demanded
Potter's keys, and, after he had re-
ceived them, said:
Now you get out of here; stay
out and never come back"
Since. that time Mr.. Potter has
been absent as q lounger in the Spo-
kane club and a favored son of So
ciety. Among those who suffered by
his failing in the way of financial
matters was Mr.. Sontag, who, just
after Potter came out from Boston,
interested himself in the latter and
secured him a position in the LIE Roy
smelter at Northport.
DR.. McMartin, another friend of
Mr.. Potter who did much towards
showing him about in society, is said
to be another loser. Still others, ac-
cording to one. of the creditors, are
numerous in this city and other
places that Mr.. Potter has seen fit to
entertain with his presence.

1t is common remark of strang-
ers visiting the city that prosperity
is apparent here. There is not a
vacant store building to be had and
dwelling houses are occupied to an
extent never known before.
The pond between the power
houses will be a good place for the
kids 10 skate. The water is not
deep except in few which
places may be skipped and the
hills about will break the force of
the winds. The mill pond is the
coolest place in the vicinity as the
northwest wind has a free sweep
there.
When the cement walk was laid
from the corner of Fremont and
Maple streets to the school house
that corner of the grounds was
graded up by the addition of several
hundred loads of dirt. Where this
dirt was hauled grass seed and rye
was sown. The weather was good
for an excellent CATCH" there be-
ing plenty of moisture and since
the grass and rye came up it has
made a fine growth. The rye is
thick and the plants vigorous.

The first number in the Lecture
Course, Picture Plays, 1.-THE
Little Minister" by Albert Arm
strong at the M. E. church last Fri
day night, was very pleasant en-
tertainment. The delineation of
the conspicuous events of the story
was done so we'll as to give no occa-
sion for criticism. The story of
The Little Minister is one of much
interest and is deserved1y popular,
and Mr.. Armstrong; presentation
of the story was natural, artistic
and reasonably complete. By means
of the large number of pictures, his
copious quotations and apt explana-
tory remarks, with the incidents of
the story advancing in logical Sc
quence, Mr.. Armstrong made the
narrative plain and of great interest
to those who had never read the
story and made it of added interest
to those who were familiar with the
book.
The pictures were fine, the best,
we think, that we had ever seen and
as thrown upon the screen they
were very distinct. The views af-
fected a wide range. The people
represented were 1.-THE very pic
lures" of tura1nes photo
graphs of persons assuming roles
in the play, we presume while the
views of scenery were excellent rep
reservations, showing the colors of
foliage and flowers in their actual
tints. Many of these showed the
beautiful effects of sunlight and
shadow, and some the effects OF
twilight that were superb. The
pictures were thrown on the screen
always at the right time to cores
pond with the progress of the speak
er,s narrative. 1.-The Little Minis
ter was a very satisfactory enter
tainment.
