BURGLARY AT MOLLOHON
Bold Thief Enters Wilson's Store
And Carefully Fits Himself
With Clothing.

On Tuesday night Wilson's store, at
the Mollohon, was broken into and
several articles of merchandise were
stolen, by thief who made good his
escape. The robbery was bold one,
and the perpetrator of the deed show
ed considerable skill and nerve in his
mode of operation.
The putty from the edges of one
of the panes of window glass was
carefully removed, and the glass was
displaced without breakage. Through
the hole thus made, measuring only
10 by ID inches, the burglar climbed.
He was an exceedingly particular
person, for he lighted the lamp,
placed it behind the counter, and
tried on many pairs of shoes before
he seleced a pair of skies. To his
wardrobe he also added shirt and a
pair of overalls. The cases in which
the pocket-knives were displayed were
disarranged and several knives pilfer-
ed. exactly how many it was not pos
sibe to determine.
From certain obvious clues it is be-
ieyed that the thief will be located
shortly.

freed by a Skunk.

A. F. Weeks, Elmer Bellemy and
N. G.. Torrance returned Sunday from
the Clearwater country where they
spent two weeks trying to see how
much ammunition they could spoil.
Two deer were killed, one by Weeks
and one by Bellomy, while Mr.. Tor
renee is credited with being freed by
a skunk that happened to overtake him
on the trail. 1t seems that Mr.. Tor
renee was pretty anxious to hold up
his reputation as a mighty hunter and
when each of his companions got
deer he became doubly keen 10 make
it three. A few days before the party
was to break camp for home Torence
went up the trail alone and after long
hard trip bagged a defenseless little
grouse that happened to stand per
fectly still while its slayer took rest
across a stump and drove a ball
through its tender breast. Gathering
up the remains Of the bird Terrence
started for camp, saying that he always
did prefer chicken to deer anyway,
and made the trip safely until near
home when he discovered that he was
being followed by skunk. The
thought of an encounter with a wild
animal and the possible loss OF his
chicken, with a liberal allowance OF
sweet smelling oder certain to be
thrown into the bargain, settled 1t
with him, and taking to his heels he
lost no time in scrambling to the top
of nearby tree, where he sat, until
Weeks, who was starting out to look
for Mr.. Terrence, happened along
rescued his friend. why didn't you
shoot it? inquired Bellomy, when ne
heard he story. well, I'll declare, +"
exclaimed Terrence, looking at new
Winchester which he held in his hand,
st thought that pesky skunk meant to
take that chicken away from me, and
forgot had a gun And the more
Tonence thought over the matter the
madder he got for as he told his com
panions, he would have given whole
lot for that skunk's tail as he thought
If would have made him two awiully
nretty ornaments for his brides.

Old Country Style.

made up mostly by the Troy Lumber
and Manufacturing Co., and their en-
ployees. At 4:3O Christmas morning
big sleigh containing twenty-five
people left Troy for Nora where a
Christmas sermon was preached by
Rev. Josephson. The services at the
church began promptly at $3.50 and
the building was packed to its fullest
capacity. AS is the Swedish custom
the Troy party had prepared a mann
moth pitch torch which was lighted
lust as they started on the journey
and its blaze lit up the road for many
yards away. At the church national
religious songs were rendered. These
songs are called war halsad skona
morgonstund," and are sung by all
religious denominations.

Ye OIden Times.

Mr.. Anderson, who for ID yeas has
been resident of Little Bear Ridge,
was in town Saturday and related
some very interesting experiences of
early days in this section. He said
his first year was spent with his family
on his farm sold recently to Mr.. Refer
son where they continued to reside
continually for twenty years. There
were no roads nor white settlers in
those days but James Bovencamp
settled there in 1888. The first year
the Anderson family had no stove, but
did their cooking on fiat stones
under which a fire was built. The
second year he paid $13 for
second hand stove in Juliaetta and
freighted it home. This trip required
three days and cost Mr.. Anderson
SIS. The only road or trail was up
American ridge and around the head
Of the creeks to Moscow mountain
and then down Little Bear Ridge to
the Anderson ranch only a dozen or
so miles from the starting point-Julia
eta. Asked as to how the creeks
came to be named he said: Two
hunters shot bear on the bluff near
the present town of Kendrick. The
animal rolled into the creek and the
name Bear Creek'has stuck to it ever
since. Of course we soon designated
the branches as Little Bear, Big Bear,
and SO on, and the ridges took their
names accordingly. We hauled our
wheat, as soon as we raised any to
Wawawai, the trip requiring a whole
week. The first load I marketed !
sold for II cents bushel and as ten
sacks were good load in those days
over the roads, my entire load brought
me about $3.50. That was the
smallest price for after that we go'
about 40 cents for our wheat at the
river. During these years we paid
dollar plug for tobacco, Is cents
yard for calico, while sugar retailed a
, four pounds for a dollar. Settler
gradually came in but we had no idei
, that the Potlatch country would eve
be settled"

Can't Do II.

During the week the News has taken
the trouble to interview several citizens
Of Troy relative to the much talked of
railroad through Latah county and on
east to the Lo Lo. None Of these
gentlemen desired to have their names
mentioned but volunteered some in
teresting information with the under
standing that their wish was to be re-
spected. In each instance these gen.
tlemen are men Of practical experience
who have many times hunted over the
territory throughout eastern Latah
county and the headwaters Of the
Clearwater and St. Joe rivers. Some
of these men have cruised and pros
pected over this ground and know
more about the real lay of the country
than all the newspaper reporters in the
state OF Washington combined. In
every case these gentlemen laughed
when asked if practical route on east
from the Potlatch basin could be found.
And they all agreed that the building
of the proposed road must be down the
middle fork Of the Clearwater to Lew
iston, a route passable and practicable,
with splendid grade. To build the
road per newspaper reports would, "
said all of these men, require The
bridging OF canyons as wide and deep
as the Snake river at Lewiston while
other gorges and crevices not much
smaller must be crossed half hundred
times. These the railroad mus
climb over, or tunnel through, and tc
: build the road would entail cos
simply enormous" Then these gen
tlemen said: And does any sane mar
believe the railroad company will dt
l all this when they can get an cas-,
} water grade all the way from Lewiston
T to the LoLo?" There is one canyol
D east Of the Potlatch basin that require
E half day of awful hard work for
:. strong man to climb out oft and thi
} must by crossed if the road does nc
n go up the river route said one OF tn
b men who has been over the land
a The News believes Lewiston has
e cinch on the road, and this view
borne out by the frantic efforts of tn
: Review people who evidently hav
n good cause to fear the road throug
: the Lolo will miss Spokane. The be:
IL interest of this section will be sui
rs served if Lewiston does get the roa
't because a competitive point will fore
e Spokane to give up her monopoly.

Correspondence
FROM THE COUNTY
Ingalls,.

June 1--we are having rain
every two days and even oftener;
rained yesterday from 6:30 A. M.
until II A. M. steady with no
let-up. The ground is thoroughly
soaked. Fox Greek as we'll as
Middle River are now full. There
is decidedly too much rain for the
crops. No one can do anything
with corn, potatoes or garden truck
as horse can hardly get over the
fields now. Although we have had
SO much rain all through this month
it has not hurt our wheat or oats
very much, as the wheat looks we'll,
in fact we have seldom had wheat
look so we'll as at the present time
at this time of the year, and the
grass crop promises to be very
heavy.
We hear that there we're three car
