Henninger, Geo. W. Luckey, John
Ernest, Henry Brown and John Mum
of Toledo, Ohio, who are interested
in the mines in the Rock Flat dis
trict, left Saturday morning ON a
tour of inspection of their properties.
Ell. Bussey and W.P. Clement. of
Payette, went to Midvale Saturday to
take charge of the stock of goods of
the late firm of Deaton & lowell.
which was purchased by A. B. Moss
and Mr.. Clement. Fred Watts, also
of Payette, went with the gentlemen.
and will clerk in the store.
Clarence Williams went to Hunt
ington last Saturday where he pre-
pared the body of the Jap killed near
there by train for shipment to Port
land where it was buried. The &C.
cident happened short distance west
of Huntington when train dashed
into section crew.
George Russell, the fellow who at
tempted to hold up the Senate saloon
last winter, was arrested Saturday on
the charge of vagrancy and fined SIS
or 10 days in jail. Unable to pay
the fine he was put to work breaking
rocks on East Idaho street in front of
the Pythian castle. This is the kind
of medicine Chief of Police Brizen-
dine intends giving to this kind of

B. B. Ward, |. H. Friar and Otis
Greenwood, of Boise, who own min
ing property in Thunder Mountain
district, left for their camp Saturday
morning. They expect to do copsid-
cradle work on their properties. How
strange that Boise men will go to
Thunder mountain over the Weiser-
Warren route when they have such q
splendid road from their home town.

known restaurant man formerly OF
this city but recently from Payette,
was arrested Monday by Chief of Po-
lice Brizendine and fined s15,
charged with being drunk and disord
erly. Harris is an experienced res.
taurant man and could make success
of the business almost anywhere, but
appetite for drink has caused his
downfall. 1t is reported that his
restaurant at Payette was attached 6
few days ago to satisfy several &C
counts long past due.
