day morning while bathing. 1t seems
that he and several other companions
had gone swimming In the river Just
below the mouth of Lapwai creek near
Spalding. In spirit Of rivalry and
fun 1t was proposed that they swim
across the river and back again, it not
being very wide at this point. Two OF
them started, One Of them being young
Sperry; soon after, however, the other
turned back and Sperry continued
across the stream and started to re-
turn; when about two.thirds across he
said, II am giving out, I cannot swim
any further, Help me-" But those on
the bank were either too frightened to
go to bis assistance or were not good
enough swimmers and they left him to
struggle alone. The ferryman, how
ever, saw the young man strugglinn in
the stream and started to shis assist.

ANENT THE

wended our way to the new section.
Fortunately for our equanimity the
company offset the incon venien ces
and when q rough stretch was met and
the wagon tried to break itselfin pieces
we just went deeper into conversation
and thus managed to survive. Martin
Thomas was steering and his youngest
heir was assistant, while his neice
and the writer embarked rs passengers
and the trip looked SOC inviting that a
small boy, Earnest Davis also Joined.
On our trip we passed people afoot and
horseback, in wagons aud carrying fur
niture; III fact it had the appearance Of
u regular boulevard. It was decided
on our return at $50 that another
moonlight ride should be indulged in
aud II possible to he found, ON a
smoother road and ye editor is now
hunting for said road and the where
withal to go over it.
Joking aside that Bear creek road,
though rough, is the best piece Of road
work we have seen in this section. 1t
has no hills but is a practically level
grade; has good turnouts and no fear
of All upset. The road is practically
made the whole distance, blasted Oh
one side and filled in on the other and
how it was completed for the Isum of
s., 200 is not u bad problem to those &C
quainted with the cost of such work.
Why, between slide rocK, blasting and
filling in, the entire road represents
engineering difficulties. We noticed
one section over 150 feet long that was
walled up about 20 feet to level it with
the grade, the inner side being solid
Blasting.
And now to another phase of the
road, tlays with the residents of it
to make regular driveway of that.
famous Bear creek road. With u little
surfacing, little more widening here
and there, aud the annual repairs done
in thorough manner that will be the
smOothest, most level aud best drive
leading out of kendrick and we urge
you to do it. Put little more work
on the road, covering the rocks and
you have road as good ia winter as
in summer and better In summer than
any other.
Another thought. Kendrick and
the county board have went .down in
their pocket for your benefit and have
enhanced your property some 200 per
cent. Will you not respond and will
inRly to the fulfllment of your agree
ment as to work and see that the town
is at no greater outlay than what has
already been expended? We believe it
and after seeing you assume your share
hope to see the road treated in the
way it should be.
Undoubtedly the above road should
be in the Cedar creek district and we
would propose that a petition to that
effect be circulated and presented to
the commissioners. What say you?

one women and girls receiving the triune

OF fellowship into the Christian Catholic

baptismal service was held at 1890 o'clock.
Those present were members of the host,
with only a slight percentage Of outsiders.
Dowie preached a sermon of nearly two
hours duration, in the course of which he
denounced infant baptism as a shame, and
declared that mere sprinkling did not con-
stitute baptism, for which three dimensions
were necessary. Overseer Excel. Overseer
Brasefield and Overseer Piper and Deacon
Hamilton performed the dimensions.
AT the afternoon meeting Dowie spoke
on The coming OF the lawless one; or the
chaos OF anarchy begun" and bitterly at

In his attacks on Freemasonry. Following
the sermon the right hand Of fellowship

SCOPE OF LAND FRAUDS
PRELIMINARY STATEMENT BY THE
SECRETARY OF THE INTERIOR.
No Senators or congressman Involved
-InvestigatiOn Has Been Under
Way Nearly a Year.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 1.-The following
statement of the conduct of the investiga-
ton into public land frauds in the Pacific
coast States was prepared at the Interior
Department and given out with Secretary
Hitchcock's approval:
Nearly a year ago information reached
the secretary of the interior which strongly
indicated that frauds of a serious nature
had been and were being perpetrased
against the government under what is
known as the forest reserve land act of
June 4, 1897, by a combination of lan1 specu-
lators on the Pacific coast. The information
and indicated frauds were of so grave u
character hat the secretary at once CT
rected a thorough investigation to be made.
This investigation was begun las. January
and has been conducted by those having
charge of the actual work with great care
and with all possible expedition consistent
with t-horoughness. The Investigation has
proceeded step by step, without intelmis-
sion, under the secretary's personal direc-
ton, and every clew of ~wrongdoing has
been quietly followed to it's source with the
result that it is the confident belief of
those in charge of the inquiry that the
guilty will be apprehended and speedily
brought to justice.
ut has been the determination of the
secretary from the beginning hat the mat
ter should be probed to the bottom, regard
less of the apparent influential character of
some of the men involved, and the inquiry
has been conducted throughout along these
lines. The work is now nearing compile
ton, and the whole matter at an early
date will be in shape for publication, and
action against the offenders will then be
taken.
"While several hundred thousand acres
of public lands are involved in the illeg nj
transactions brought to light, the number of
acres to which patents have been obtained
by the perpetrators of the frauds is COM
paratively small. 1t is proper to say also
that some of the statements in regard to
the matter which have appeared in the
newspapers recently, both in the East and
in the West, are more or less exaggerated.
and others are mere SurmiSes. The state
ments widely circulated to the effect that
five United States senators and a large
number of representatives were implicated,
and that the lands involved would reach in
value SIS, 900. 600 or 500 900 are withou.
foundation in fact. 1t can be positively
stated that they did not originate in the
Interior Department"

CHINA is MUCH WORRIED
REOCCUPATION OF MUKDEN GIVES
OFFICIALS MUCH UNEASINESS.
They Appeal to Friendly Powers for
Advice and HeIT-Circumstances
of Russian Return.

PEKING, Nov. 1.-The Chinese govern
ment is greatly disturbed at the reoccupa-
ton Of Mukden, the capital of Manchuria.
by Russian troops. The Foreign Office Is
appealing to friendly foreign legations for
help and advice, admitting its own help
lessness in the matter.
The. Russians returned to Mukden on
Thursday of last week. According TO adj
vices received by the Chinese government
1900 Russian soldiers took possession of
the official buildings there, barricaded the
gates and evicted the Chinese officials
There are between ten and twenty thou
sand Chinese troops in and about Mukden,
but the Chinese commanders in Manchuria
have been given imperative orders in no.
wise TO resist the Russian government,
and to use every effort to avert collisions.
The circumstances leading to the reoccu-
patton of Mukden are as follows:
The Russians employed a noted bandit,
the Chinese, as chief of one of the irregu-
lar bands of police they are organizing in
Manchuria. The Chinese authorities re-
peatedly requested the surrender of this
man, and the Russians recently consented
to give him up. Thereupon a Chinese Off
Ger decapitated the brigand without giving
him a trial. When this became known
the Russians demanded the execution OF
this officer within five days. giving as an
alternative the seizure of Mukden.
The Chinese Foreign Office was nego-
tiating with Paul Lessar, the Russian min
lister, on the matter, and offered to Danish
the officer in question, pleading that he
had exceeded his instructions, and to re.
move the taotai, his superior, from Office.
There was a misunderstanding as to the
time limit set for these negotiations; the
Chinese thought it expired yesterday. Be-
fore the negotiations were completed the
news was received here that Russia had
fulfilled her threat to reoccupy Mukden.
The fact that Viceroy Alexieff has re.
moved his headquarters from Port Arthur
to VladivOstock has caused great surpris,
in Picking. 1t is generally conjectured thai
he was unwilling to risk passing the win.
