TALE MAGNIFIED.
SAYS McLACHLAN.
North Stars Maiden Trip on
Lake Was a Pronounced
Success.

It was all a joke by some of his
friends, and it seems that the
tale Of the casting away Of Cap
tain w. B. McLachlan and his
party Tuesday was greatly ex-
agerated.
"Those fellows said they were
going to get back at me for keep
ing them out all night, said the
captain today, "and guess they
did alright. The true happen
ings of that much advertised
trip are told by Mr.. McLachlan
himself and rob the story of
much of it's exciting features.
It was the "North Star s
maiden trip and she was loaded
with ten tons of freight for the
opposite side of the lake. Every
thing went along finely until one
of the engines blew out a gasket
and Mr.. McLachlan decided to
drift into shore and fix it up, it
being hard to do a good job out
on the lake.
They landed at Stony Point
with ease (they were not cast
ashore) and then it grew SO dark
that it was decided to wait until
morning before doing the work.
When G. w. Marfeld came
over with his launch the passen-
gers, who had sat up all night
telling stories,. returned with
him and Captain McLachlan
fixed his engine and in a short
time delivered his freight.
The maiden trip was success
full in every way and two other
successful trips were made yes
terday. 1t is the intention to
make a trip every day from now
on. The boat is in excellent
working order.
"The North Star WASH t
tossed about by the waves at all, "
declares McLachlan. "She rode
as steady as an ocean liner"

boat.
GLOW did it happen?' was the
question asked as soon as Dahl
could get his breath.
"Big fish" was the answer,
and this was all they could get
out of him for the time being
except that he wanted to return
and get his boat and pole.
The latter was floating on the
water near at hand and Warfeld
picked 1t up without much
trouble. And there at the end
of the line was, the "big fish" It
was pike and measured a little
over a foot in length.

"Gee, that's a tremendous

A special dispatch from Nezperce
in a recent issue of the Evening Tel
Ter is as follows:
Excitement is high over the ar
rival Of party Of railroad survey
ors this morning from Ilo. The
men began work at once in the
southern part Of the city and are
running levels toward the west in
the direction of the new town Of
vollmer on the Northern Pacific.
The report in last nights Evening
Teller that the Northern Pacific had
started operations on a branch line
to this city caused considerable CON-
ment here, and the presence this
morning Of the surveyors in the city
has revived railroad talk and the
people are in high spirits.
No announcement has been made
from Northern Pacific circles that
these men represent that railway
company, but information received
by private parties this morning from
authoritative sources confirms the
belief that this is a permanent
move on the part of the Northern
Pacific.
This assures Nezperce two rail-
ways in the very near future. With
the completion of the Lewiston and
Southeastern electric line, active
work on which is being done now
with large forces of graders, this
city viii begin to boom, and rapid
advance in realty is expected soon.
The Nezperoe prairie is one of the
richest farming sections of the state.
and amply able to furnish business
for two railway systems.

The last issue Of the HERALD had
an account of bold attempt at
burglary of the Idaho Store Co. s
store at Kamiah in which the robber
was frustrated after taking $500
from one of the tills, a revolver and
some cutlery from a case. While
attempting to blow open the safe
with stick of dynamite, he was
discovered by the proprietor and
frightened away, leaving no signs of
Identification. Suspicion, however,
rested on Sid Kerby, i6-year old
boy. who had been in that vicinity
for about year, and who was sus-
pectcd in number of other depreda-
tons. His movements were followed
closely. and when he came to Nez-
perce, Monday night, Marshal
John Eaton was notified to watch
him. Tuesday morning he was ar
rested and placed in the city Jail,
where he was sweated for several
hours when he finally gave up and
confessed the crime. giving full par
ticulars of his actions. He told of
where he had hid the gun, and it has
since been found.
