AROUND WHITE BIRD.
Much Substantial Work being
Done in That Section.

MuCn SuDStdnLidl work DolnR
Done in That Section.
F. M. Mitchell, of the White
Bird electric light works, was in
town this week and reports much
substantial Improvement being
done in that part Of the county.
The excellent showing being made
in the mines is the principal stimu-
liant for this activity and great
things are expected during the COM
ing season. The placer property
on the Glatigny bar is without
question going to make a great
producer. Mr.. Kilgrove who owns
the mine, is showing up some Of
the richest gravel ever found along
Salmon river. The gold can be
plentifully seen in every shovelful
Of gravel and it is believed the
strike will equal the fabulously
rich finds of the early discoveries.
The copper properties below
White Bird are also giving excel.
lent promise and movement is
now afoot to construct q wagon
road down the river to these prop
critics.
The construction of the new
telephone line to connect north
and eouth Idaho has been some
what delayed by a shortage il
wire but that has at last reached
Council and will soon be delivered
The poles for the line are in place
to within 10 miles of White Bir(
and the remainder are on thu
ground so it can be only be shor
time until this is completed.

SIMS 4 SHIELDS
GET CONTRACT
Will Build N. P. Line From CuldeSaC to
GranSeVille.
ELECTRIC ROAD RENEWS ACTIVITY
Expect to Work Not
Later Than February 20.

A dispatch from Portland to the
Tribune, Monday, states that the
contract for the construction Of the
Northern Pacific railroad from
Culdesac to this place had been
awarded to Sims & Shields of st.
Paul, and that work will be COM
menced at once. The heavy rock
work occurs on the first fifteen
miles out OF Culdesac and it is
there that the forces will be con-
centrated at present. 1t is also
reported that much Of the line will
be sublet and that sub-contractors
are now in the field looking over
the ground with a view of securing
contracts. The exact cost OF the
road is not known but it is said to
run between 81 100000 and $2,-
900, 900.
While the Northern Pacific is
busy letting contracts the electric
people are anything but idle, and
we are now assured that work will
begin on this road not later than
February Goth and be rushed to
completion as rapidly as possible.
G. w. Thompson, Of Lewiston,
who is now at the head of the
electric movement, with Secretary
Randolph, were here yesterday and
at a meeting of the business men
assured them the road would be
built at once. ALI arrangements
for the necessary funds have been
completed and there will be no fur
ther delay. Mr.. Thompson also
submitted proposition whereby
those who have subscribed to the
electric line can transfer their sub
scription and by paying the amount
pledged in monthly installments
commencing March 10Th. they will
receive fifteen shares of stock in
the company instead of one as
formerly agreed. As the notes will
have to be paid anyway, not later
than June 1, 1907, many are tax.
ing advantage Of the better terms
and will pay on. the installment
plan.
The outlook for great railroad
activity was certainly never better
and certainly no country is in
greater need of transportation thar
Camas and Nez Perce prairies.

A GREAT SUCC ESS.
Firemens' Ball Nets Over
$4OO for Chemical Engine.

$4OO TOR Cn0mlCaI Engine.
The dance given by the volun-
teer fire department Of this city,
last Friday night to raise funds
for the purchase of a chemical en-
gine was a splendid success both
socially and financially. The big
hall was nicely decorated and the
music and floor were all that could
be desired. In the Odd Fellows
hall the ladies had prepared a
splendid banquet and many who did
not dance bought supper tickets,
the supper and use of the building
being donated. The expenses were
not very great and over S4OO was
netted for the new engine. The
splendid success of the affair is
due to the enthusiastic manner in
which everybody took hold of it
and a number are deserving OF
special praise for the valuable as
sistance rendered. The firemen
wish to sincerely thank the general
public for the generous aid received
and endeavor to show their appre-
citation by building up thorough
ly efficient fire department.

SUNDAY NIGHT BLAZE.
DR.. NiCkel'S Large Residence
a Wreck.


A fire Sunday night almost COM
pletely destroyed the fine large
residence of DR.. 7. w. Nickel, on
State street. The flames were dis
covered about eight O'Clock in the
upper story of the building, and
before the water could be turned
on the entire second and third
floors were ablaze. The fremen
worked hard and soon had the
blaze under control, but not until
the roof and chimneys had fallen
in, leaving the house a total wreck.
The house was occupied by Mrs.
M. A. Moser who was conducting
. boarding house and several OF
the dodgers lost most of their per-
sonal effects. The building cost
between $4,000 and $1,000 and
was uninsured. Mrs. Moser had
5000 on the furniture but this will
only partially cover her loss.
When the alarm was turned in
a panic was narrowly averted at
the Armory, where protracted
meetings are being held and the
big hall was crowded. Quick ac-
tion, however, on the part Of cooler
heads prevented what might have
been serious accident.

Cottonwood Items.

The surveyors are still busy
measuring off the Fuchs Addition
into town lots. Cottonwood is
spreading herself these days.
Many of the Cottonwood people
saw the DIR. Nickel residence at
Grangeville, burn, but were unable
from here to tell what part of town
it was in.
The brick foundations for the
safes in the new bank are all ready
for installing the safes, and the in
terror Of the Bank building is being
embellished with a beautiful green
ingrane, but the fixtures have not
yet arrived from Spokane.
GEO. w. Goode appeared before
the Cottonwood Magistrate at the
appointed time and waived examin-
alton on the charge OF trying to
burn the Jail, whereupon he was
bound over to appear before the
Distrio Court, bonds being fixed at
100000.
NJ. F. Fuchs says there is no ques.
ton but what the cooperative
telephone line will be built from
Cottonwood to Grangeville. II
certainly would be great relief tt
the people of Cottonwood as the
condition of present long distance
service is inexcusible.
