Jay Foss Lost.

Much anxiety is being occasioned in

nesday shortly before dinner and went
across the Clearwater river about noon
in the vicinity of the Stranahan place
telling his companions he was going to
the Tillman Bell ranch and would re-
turn by way Of the ferry. He started
toward the hills from the other side of
the river and no trace has been found
of him since. Diligent inquiry made
yesterday and today failed to shed any
light as to his mysterious disappear
ance. The case has been place in
the hands Of Chief OF Police Masters
and every effort is being made to locate
the missing boy. Mr.. Fogg is away at
Grangeville on business and has been
notified of his sons disappearance. The
mother Is almost frantic, Is she saws
her son never left home for over night
without telling her and was always
home early every evening.

Railroad Assessments Raised.

Walla Walla. Wash. Aug. 9.-The
county commissioners as board OF
equalization have raised the assess
ment Of the o. r. e. N. railroad in
Walla Walla from $500 to $4,000 per
mile. The w. & G. r. was reduced
from 1880 to $500 per mile. The
board refused to grant the request of
the Northern Pacific for reduction.
which remains at $500 per mile.
The proposed new bridge across the
Touchet river has been abandoned by
the commissioners on account OF the
cost being so much in excess Of the
exnectations Of the board. The bids
submitted ran from s2oT6 to s4450. The
hoard has decided to build bridge
across the Touchet at Rolles Junction
for which bids will he called for al

TOM MORRIS HAS A RACE.
s,eedy Veteran Of the Cinder Track
Matched at Spokane.

After calling the match off a week
ago. Tom Morris, of Spokane and Wal
ter Renwick, of Nelson, B. c.. finally
came to terms and yesterday posted
forfeit money of 500 each with Eddie
Quinn ut the Athletic club, says the
Spokesman Review, naming Thursday
for the day Of the race.
The men are to run 100 yards for
$3.50 side the additional $3.50 each to
be posted the day of the race. between
3 and ) o'clock. at the fair grounds.
Both are fast runners, Morris being the
older and more experienced. Renwick
claims never to have run a race in his
life until year ago. when he beat sew
eral good men in and around Nelson.
He is heavily backed by Nelson fans,
however, who have confidence in his
ability to get away in good time. Rem
wick is about 25 years OF age, while
Morris is 36.
1t is not unlikely that quite a con-
siderable sum OF local money will
change hands on the race. Morris is
not very we'll known here. but has run
n nHmber of races in the Palouse coun-
try and nearby towns within the past
year or so and has shown that ne
knows the business. He has been 4
great runner i'm his day was winner OF
the Worlds Fair handicap champion
ship at Chicago in 1893 and has met
and defeated some or the best men ir

whether the NeZperce fair management
will accept this offer. Secretary Osmers
