Gambling 10 Stop.

Early in the week letters were
received by the saloon men Of
this town from Sheriff Green
notifying them that the law
against gambling and slot ma
chimes would be strictly enforced.
These notices have been served
throughout the entire county.
Gambling has ceased entirely in
Grangeville and the slot machines
have been relegated to innocuous
desuetude, Mr.. Green holding that
cigar and candy selling machines
were as much in violation of the
law as those that were played
for cash. The sheriff says that
this is no political move, but as
one of the statutes of the state
it is his duty to see that it is en-
forced

New Mining District.

There has been a petition for
warded for a new mining district

old Station on the Clearwater,
running south to a point on Lake
creek three miles south of the
Dixie-Florence trail, thence east

Passed Away.

Mrs. Wells, who arrived here
from Spokane on the 10th inst.
tocook for Mrs. Schofeld, shortly
after her arrival ran a splinter in
her hand. The member at once
became infamed and rapidly
grew worse. Fears of blood
poisoning were entertained and
it was thought best to send the
lady back to Spokane where
she could have the benefit of the
best medical aid and hospital
nursing. She left on Fridays
stage and was made as comfort
able as possible.
Later-Mrs. Well died at New
some last night, passing away
without a struggle. She has no
known relatives and will probably
be buried at Newsome. AS we
go to press Mr.. Shissler is await
ing instructions from the coroner

Personal
and
Otherwise
Sites VIII Incorporate.

A meeting for the incorpora-
ton of Sites was held at that
place and the following officers
were elected:
R. c. Oliver. president; T. J..
Kern, secretary; T. E. Oliver,
P. E. Ellis, D. A. Smith, H. c..
Jackson and Phil Hartman, trus-
tees.
There is no doubt but that the
incorporation of the town will be
beneficial and will result in an
improvement of the streets and
a system of street lighting, both
of which are badly needed.

Smooth Proceedings.

Automobiles, ever since their
advent, have been sensured for
their reckless running and the
endangering of lives, but they
are relegated to the rear. For
some time past merry parties of
coasters gather ever and anon
and go shooting through the prin-
cipal street of the town. 1t be-
hoves the pedestrian to keep
both eyes open in crossing the
street. The coasting has been
the finest ever, and the price of
arnica and court plaster is rapidly
advancing.

A Small Blaze.

Yesterday forenoon, just before
the pleasant jingle of the dinner
bells sounded, we scribe was
standing upon the street cogitat-
ing upon the fact that only a few
stray dogs were to be seen and
wondering where all the people
could be. Suddenly the fearsome
cry of fire rang out upon the
wintry air and as if by magic the
street was black with people all
armed with fire extinguishers,
buckets of water and ladders.
The fire was located at ]. M.
Anderson's residence upon Cap
itol hill, but before the jealous
down town folk could climb the
hill the fire was extlnguished by
Mr.. and Mrs. Anderson and near
by neighbors. We understand
the confagration was due to a
defective stove pipe. The dam
age was slight.

TALc AND ~soAPsToNE.
Total Production for a Year Is Valued
At Almost a Million
Dollars.

The total production of tale and
soapstone of all varieties during
1904 was 81, 1S9 short tons, valued
at 500, 731. As compared with
S6.gO1 short tons, valued at SS4O,
O6O in 1903. this is an increase Of
4.2SS tons in quantity and OfSlOO,
GIL in value, due partly to a gener-
al increase in the production of
tale from all states, but principal
w to the large increase in the pro
duction of fbrous tale in New
York. In 1903 there had been a
large decrease in the production
of fibrOus tale in New York as
compared with the production of
1902 which was due to long-pro-
tracted strikes at some of the pa
per mills.
OF the 1904 production, PISA
shOrttons, valueda at S433,331, were
obtained from all the states eXclu-
sive of New York. This value in
cludes that of the manufactured
product made from the tale, as
only a small quantity of the prod
net is sold in the crude state.
The production came from nine
states, and these, together
with the number of producers in
each, were as follows: California.
/; Georgia, 3; Massachusetts, 1:
New Jersey, 1; North Carolina, 8.
Pennsylvania, 2; Vermont, 3; Vir
ginia, 2; and Washington /, a total
of IS producers.
The production of fibrOus tale
from New York amounts to nearly
double that obtained from all the
other states, and almost all of il
is used in the manufacture of pa
per. In 1904 the New York OUTPUT
amounted to 64,005 short tons
valued at 1907 ,400, as compared
with 60,230 short tons, valued a.
S421,6 800, in 1903. The averag,
price for a ton of tale in 1904 wal
1892, as compared with$7 in 1903
and with $685. in 1902, an increas,
of 80 cents a ton over 1903 and
decrease of Is cents a ton as com
pared with 1902.
The Importation of tale into tn
United States has been very irreg
ular and never amounted to much
The quantity and value Of the tai
imported in 1904 was greater tina.
in any previous year. 1t amount
ed to 3,26S short tons, valued a

ADVERTISING OF THE BANK
Wall Street Publication Tells Of
Points Which Should Be Brought
Out in Display.

Until recently bankers looked
upon advertising as publicly in
spired by a desire to favor the
newspapers with some patron
age, a conclusion that it pays to
advertise being seldom taken into
consideration,
1t was not until lately that this
idea was replaced with the fore
gone fact that bank advertising,
when it is done intelligently, is
very profitable; and what has ac-
complished more than anything
else to force this change in Opin-
ion was the increase in deposits of
the banks that advertised.
The advertising banks in one
state alone, during a period of five
years, gained q per cent. in assets
and % per cent. in deposits, while
those banks that did not avail
themselves Of advertising lost FIVE
per cent. in assets and seven per
cent. in deposits.
In commenting upon this sub
iect, the Wall Street Journal
draws attention to a very good
point banks ought to bring out in
their advertising.
1t says that in the last 40 years
there have been only 49S national
banks that have failed, although
within the same time there have
been five or six panics. The liza.
bilities of these banks amounted
to a little more than sos, 900, 900
|. and IS per cent. of this sum was
paid directly out of the assets o.
the failed banks.
The Wall Street Journal sayl
that three eighths of one per cent
on circulation would have re
e deemed all the outstanding circu
e lation Of failed national banks.
This proof of safety in banking
il advertised constantly, will in
b crease the deposits and assets o
e a bank by the accretion of ne'
funds, within a very short perio.
Of time.

LOST CHILDREN OF ISRAEL
These People Look for End Of the
World in ~l9l6-Meedngs
Largely Attended

The end Of the world is definite
ly predicted by a set of Israehtes
who are actively preparing for the
catastrophe. A party Of these be
levers passed through New York
recently on their way from Aus
tralia to Michigan, where they
will await the end. incidentally,
the catastrophe is expected in
1916.
The sect calls itself the "LOst
Children Of Israel" Most of the
members of the tribe are wealthy.
They are all strict yegetarians,
and eat nothing except what they
grow themselves. On the trip over
on the Princess Irene they lived on
the food they had brought with
them, and none of them ate any
thing served to them by the ships
steward.
The first leader of the tribe was
Johann SouthcOtt, who held the
position in 1892. The others who
have been leaders are Richard
Brother, Peter Shaw, George Tur-
ner, James Jezrill and the present
king and queen of the tribes, Ben
jamin and Mary Purnell, who ex-
pect to ride in the golden chariot
into Heaven when the time comes.
The money of every member is put
into one common purse, and this
purse is placed in the hands of the
leader, who disburses it.
The original members of the
sect started from Benton Harbor,
Mich, in November, 1903, Ostensi,
bly, to circumnayigate the globe.
They journeyed by way of Van
couver, B. c., where they set sail
for the orient. After stopping at
Honolulu for a short time they
continued on to Melbourne, Aus.
tralia.
At Melbourne their meetings
were largely attended, according
to Edmund Burnley, one of their
leaders. They held many overflow
ing meetings at the time Elijah
DOwie was driven out of the saAt
town and compelled to leave the
country.
After establishing a colony al
Singleton, Australia, their con
Verts greatly increased. Man!
Australians volunteered to g
with them around the world
Their number was supplemental
in England, where they conducted
meetings. The appearance of tn,
members of the tribe is calculate,
to attract attention. The me-
wear their hair long, hanging
as low as their waists. This, the.
declared, was in accordance wit
the teachings of Moses, but tn
specific reason for their long hail
they said, was that they wer
walking in the footsteps of Chris
whose hair was never shOrn. TIL
dress of the men is fantastic, t
say the least. High felt hats c
the style worn a century ago ar
worn by all. Long frOck coats {
good material and well fttin
loose trousers of like material an
, stout shoes complete their attir
The wost trib" arrives at its co
! clusion that the world will con
J to an end by 1916 by %reasonir
3 that as there were 1000 years b
! tween Adam and Noah and 2,0l
years between the time of Chri
Z and the present time, 1916 W
I complete the cycle.

morning, while landing from a
boat about four miles north Of

and had just landed at Halfmoon

getting out of the boat, Stanley
took cold of the muzzel of his
double barrel shotgun and at
tempted to drag it out of the
beat, butithe hammer caught on
the seat and discharged one
barrel, the entire load taking
effect in the lower part of his
arm Just above the elbow. A
ragged wound about Eve inches
long was torn but no bones were
broken. = = = :

nearby farm house and telephou-
