event. As most of the people here
have never skated upon the rollers,
some amusing sights are Witnessed
at the rink. Some hard falls have
been received but no serious in
juries have resulted. The rink bids
fair to become very popular place
Of amusement. Roller skating is
very popular in the east and in
coast cities. Few cities of any

MONEY FOR TRAIL.
Funds for new Salmon River
About all Secured.

ouoS tOu u0W salmon River
About all Secured.
r. L. Irwin, Of Riggins, arrived
in the city the last of the week
While here Mr.. Irwin circulated
the petition for funds for the build.
ing OF the new Salmon river trail.
He was a. successful as he had
hoped and the required sum was
raised in . short time. Grangeville
citizens raised $500 tor the project.
The county commissioners will be
asked to donate to the fund. The
rest of the necessary sum has been
promised by Denver. WhiteBird
and Marshall Lake parties.
Efforts are being made by local
citizens to provide for continue
ton of the trail. The idea is to
construct the trail through to the
South Fork of the Salmon river
where it will join the Thunder
Mountain trail. This latter route
is said to be good at all times. The
state will be asked to make an
appropriation to assist in the ex.
tension of the trail. When the
main trail and the extension is
completed it will afford good all
winter route from the rich Bear
Creek and Marshall lake mining
countries to Grangeville and would
bring y great deal of trade to the
county seat that now goes the
other way.
Mr.. Irwin is president of the
Goodenough Mining company on
whose property . big strike was
recently made. Mr.. Irwin brought
out some fine samples Of ore from
the property and confirms the news
Of the big strike. A crew of IL men
are working on the property aud
As soon the weather conditions per-
NIT, the 6.stamp mill on the prop
perty will be put in operation. Mr..
Irwin went down to Lewiston,
