INSANE MAN ESCAPES.
Arthur Robbins Tries to Xii
His Brother.

Arthur Robbins, of Clearwater,
who was some time ago adjudged
insane by Judge Jaques and sent to
Blackfoot, was afterwards dis
charged and last week returned to
his former home. His discharge was
evidently unwarranted, for since
his return the unfortunate man has
been worse than ever. In some
way he secured a revolver and on
one night he came to his brothers
home and attempted to shoot him,
but the gun was either not loaded
or failed to explode the cartridge.
He also went to Mr.. Clark's store
one night and wanted to get some
supplies but left without them. HI
seems to travel about only at nigh
and every attempt to capture hin
has SO far failed. Deputy Sheriff
Blackburn went down last Friday
but after careful search returned
without his man and many nov
believe he has left the country.
Robbins is only about 25 year
old and has many friends who ar
exel ting every effort to have tn
unfortunate young man place,
where he will secure proper treat
ment.

their fire insurance companies, the
Mercantile Fire & Marine of Bos-
ton, lost all their records and over

Dear Sir:
The statement published in the
Standard of April "a, stating that
there is q possible consolidation OF
the Pacific States and the Nezperce
telephone companies in sight, is
without any foundation whatever
and the report, wherever it came
from, is only intended to injure the
Nezperce company. There is no
doubt but what the Pacific States
company would like to do such a
thing but the Nezperce company
never has had any such intention.
We have the poles almost all
cut for the line from Cottonwood
to Grangeville and will start to
distributing them along the line
the last of this week or the first o.
next and will have the line COM
pleted to Grangeville by the 18th
of June or the first of July.
You will do the Nezperce Tele
phone company great favor il
you will correct through the col
umns Of your paper the erroneous
statement referred to in the Stan
dard. Very truly yours,

X. II. Jones returned last week
from New York where he has been

his trip most satisfactory and

While in New York he met Sam
Silverman and Frank Brown, all of
whom were inquiring after Idaho
county friends.
Mr.. Jones says much interest is
being taken in the northwest and
he looks for a large immigration to
this section this year. Grangeville
is not unknown to many in the
east and upon being introduced to
one gentleman in New York he
remarked, ooh, yes, that's the

THE COUNTRY
German View of the Trip of the
Presidents Daughter to the
Orient Last Year.

Berlin, March 4.-Prof. Albretch
Wirth Of Munich today contributes a
signed article to Der Tag on the posi-
bility Of President Roosevelt and En-
perOr William exchanging visits. Pro-
lessor Wirth has connections with the
foreign office, and his suggestions
therefore have a certain interest.
Congressman Nicholas Longworth
and Mrs. Longworth are expected in
Berlin in May" he says. This is not
the first time that the president
daughter will have represented the
United States automatically. Her
journey TO East Asia had an official
character which was expressed by her
accompanying a member of the cabi-
net.
President Roosevelt himself is not
permitted to leave American territory,
but as an American Warship is Ameri-
can territory, as President Roosevelt
has already proved in practice, why
cannot the president give another ex-
ample by visiting Kiel? Emperor VIII
liam could then chose a return visit of
the same form, going on a warship TO
waters near Washington. These visits
would add much to the mutual friend
snip of the two countries"

To go night after night to the theatre
Is mark of decadence. You avoid the

night by night you rush madly to enjoy
the sad procession Of moral iepers, ex-
posed amid the plaudits Of the multitude;
the c9ncerous groWths, the deadly vices
that destroy the souls of men.
Roue and deRimonde are depicted
with startling realism and mems deprav-

forth as the expressions of genius, and
fit means for entertaining a Christian

You say even still there is genius back

the genius that guilds the tomb; the
