These cool, crisp days are enriching
the health of our citizens and the AK is
busy. If the barometer stays down until
Christmas coal will so up three notches
under the persuasive influence of the
Trust. However any advances will not
be felt in Ritzville as the town is heated
by municipal hot air. The beautiful
snow at this date persuades us there is
no necessity for a closing ont sale on
)vercoats, but cinches the fact that a
little reduction on livery prices would
protect the proportions of the publ C
pocket book. Our weather eye is hardly

living in hopes the mild Christmas in

Tunnel Caves On Train

Freight train No. 222 was caught in
a cave in tunnel nine, between Delta
and Sims, last Thursday morning
The accident was a peculiar one. The
freight train was running through the
tunnel when three of tho cars jumped
the track. The jar of the wreck
against the walls, which had been
loosened and softened by the recent
rains, caused about 800 feet of the
mnnol to collapse. Luckily none of
the crew were on that portion of the
train caught in the cave-in so no one
was hurt. The engine and about
half the train were through the tunnel
when the accident occurred
The task of clearing up the track
through the tunnel was big one and
seriously blocked traffic on the road
for several days.

DEATH OF N. P. DODGE
Prominent Citizen of Grants Pass
Dies on Monday.

N. P. Dodge, one of the best known
and most universally esteemed citizens
of Grants Pass, died at his home in
this city. ON Monday forenoon. He
had been in poor health for some
years. For the past two weeks he
had been confined to his bed and
during that time little hope has been
entertained for his recovery Several
years ago he experienced a stroke of
paralysis and, while he made a par
tial recovery, and was afterward. able
to attend somewhat to his business
interests, yet he never fully recovered
He has since been subject to attacks
of heart trouble, some of them very
serious, aud these have occurred more
frequently in the past few months.
Nathan Prentiss Dodge was born in
East Montpelier, VT, February s,
1889 In 1872 he removed to st.
Johnsbury, VT, and in 1889 to North
ern Idaho. In 1887 he came TO Grants
Pass where he has since resided. He
was postmaster in Grants Pass for six
years and afterward entered the hard
ware business as a member of the firm
of Jewell 81 Dodge. In later years,
he has devoted his attention to the in
surance business. He was an esteem
ed member of the Masonic fraternity
and during his residence here has been
one of the pillars of the Presbyterian
Church in Grants Pass. His public
and private life were without re-
proach, and his cheerful and pleasant
disposition carried him uncomplain-
ingly through all his Affections 1t is
doubtful if another death has ever oc-
cured here which produced so wide
spread and general sorrow as that of
Mr.. Dodge He leaves a wife, Mrs
Mary Dodge of our city.
The funeral services were held on
Wednesday afternoon at the Presby-
terian church and the interment took
place at the Odd Fellows cemetery BE-
The services were conducted by
Rev Robt Leslie. The business
houses were closed from 2 to 4 O'Clock
p. N. and the. funeral was attended by
a large concourse Of people.

WILLIAMS BROS. FACTORY
Second Largest Sa sh and Door
Plant on the Coast.

Williams Bros. & Kendall's big fac
tory building is being rapidly pushed
to completion, good force of car
penters being kept steadily at work.
The factory, when completed will be
the largest sash and door plant ON the
coast with one exception only. The
building is 60 by 1877 feet in dimen-
sions, exclusive of the platforms.
The equipment will consist of over
30 machines, with a. daily capacity
of 300 doors and other work in like
proportion. 1t was found necessary
to enlarge the building greatly from
the dimensions first intended and
planned.
The building is located on + treet
a short distance west Of Gilbert creek,
The owners have secured large
piece of ground north and east of the
factory for use as n lumber yard A
dry kiln will be erected Just north
of the factory, while the boiler rooms,
on which work has already com
menccd. will be located. on the east
side. .One car load of machinery has
already been received and another il
expected soon. The work of building
has been greatly delayed on account
of the wet weather, but it is expected
that the plant will be ready for opera
tion soon after the first of the coming
month.
When this factory is completed and
equipped its owners will be enabled
to turn out an immense amount of
work. This enterprise is very i'm.
portant addition to the manufacturing
industry of Grants Pass.

A BUGLARY AT CLEMENS
Thieves Break In and Steal
Watches. Pills and Wines

The drug store Of NJ. Clemens was
burglarized on Tuesday night. The
appearances are that it was an
amateurish job and the loss was in.
considerable. II. II. Barton, who has
jeweler shop in the same building,
was the heaviest loser, the thieves
having taken a number of watches,
but his loss is not great, the thieves
contenting themselves with the cheap
or grade of watches and leaving the
valuable watches, rings and other
jewelry.
The burglars made their entrance
by removing a pane of glass from one
of the rear wind ows. They pilfered
indiscriminately and foolishly. They
took two bottles of sherry wine, car
ton of high priced pills, and mum
ber of small rticles, including blue
pencil. They secured about 81. 80 in
money from Clemens till and about
So from Barton's cash drawer The
selection of the articles and other
features of the burglary indicate the
probability of its having been done
by boys,
