A Great Benefit.

Four mines in the Occur d'Alenes
will this year pay taxes on an assessed
valuation of slightly over four million
dollars. That is nearly equal to the
total assessed value of all the property
in Latah county last year. The exact
figures of gross and net production of
these four mines for last year, which
furnish the basis for taxation this year
the tax being levied on the net profit
are as follows:
The Bunker Hill and Sullivan at
Wardnor, working the greatest silver
lead mine in the world, produced ore
worth gross 81. $50. II 81 and ii Welded
net profit of 81. 957. Hips. The profits
more than doubled in year. The

AN OLD OFFENDER
 POSES AS CORPSE Dead Wagon Was Summon. ed But Case Was False
 Alarm

What was a good imitation of the
 resurrection ot the dead occurred in
 Bisbee on Brewery Avenue yesterday to life by a few gentle shakes of friend, after the coroner, a physician
 and the dead wagon had been summon ed. With his mouth open, his eyes set in death, and no visible appearance
 of life existing in his body, Jesus Gar cia, a Mexican, who has eaten more
 meals at the expense of the city and done less work in his lifetime than any other man on earth, laid down on the sidewalk in front of the Calumet saloon on Brewery Avenue, after eat ing a can of sardines and a bunch of
 soda crackers. the evidence of which were very plain around him, and pos i ed as dead.
 Three hundred people, during the ! time he laid there, viewed the remains and expressed their sympathy for the deceased. Nearly everybody in the crowd had felt of his pulse and pro- nounced him dead, when friend who had intimate associations with old John BarIeycorn saw the condition Of | his friend and butted in. Without the solemn look of who was gTiev-
 ing over the loss of a friend, he grab bed the Mexican, and with few yehe- iment jerks, put hi mon his feet. After being able to sit up and take notice of
 things, the Mexican shook himself a
 few times, strengthened up and sauD- tered up the street while the crowd
 which had gathered around him look
 ei on in startled woaderment. The Mexican, 10 avoid being the object iof a scene. turned the corner and ' took down the alley.
 | At this time Officer Jack White ap-
 reared on the scene, but too late to
 snd a dead man. He learned what ' had happened. and took out after the Mexican in hot pursuit. Just as he vas drifting into the B. Caretto saloon rn O. K street. Officer White ar
 rested him and took him to iial.
 | Tn relating the circumstances, Of fcer White stated that unless man
 vas well acquainted with the Mex Iican people they could not understand their ways He stated thar during his lexperience as an officer. he had arrest Ted several whom he believed to be idead. When shot is fired they fall
 upon their faces and lay motionless.
 or If found when drunk. they pose as Idead until an opportunity is given
 them to make good getaway.

CITY COUNCIL WILL
 REFUSE MATERIAL
Used h Construction of City Hall BuiId-
 ing

The City Council met yesterday af. noon in special session to investigate the charges that the material put into the new city hall are defective. Coun- cilman Devfne Saturday was inspect ing the cement blocks which are being placed in the walls. when he discover ed that they were defective, and not the kind of material which the city contracted for for the building. He ordered that the work be stopped un. til the Council could meet and investi. gate the matter.
 When the discussion arose in the Council but three members had in, spected the work. but they agreed the cement blocks were not fit material to be used. In order that every council. man could see what kind of work was being done. the Council adjourned to the building and made an inspection. Every member was agreed that the blocks being used were defective and unfit. On reconvening at the Coun ci chamber, no action was taken, the matter being referred to meeting of the Council to be held at f o'clock this afternoon.
 Mir. Hurst has charge of the inspec tion of material which goes into this building. He was notified to be pres ent at the meeting of the Council yes. terday, but was absent, being at Doug. las on business. He returned yester day evening, and will be notified to be at the meeting today and make expla nations othe Council why this poo' material was allowed to be used.
 The material to which the Council objects are rough finished blocks which can be easily broken with a hammer. It is contended by the Council that these blocks will moi stand the heavy pressure which they will have to bear. Other objections are made that the tying rocks from the rear wall to the side walls are not in good alignment.
 At the meeting today voting places for the sewer bond election will be SC. lected.
