WHY YOU should trade with the
Elk City
Idaho

Why you should trade with the
Growing store: Because it is
one of the oldest firms in the
county; the store has remained
continuously in the hands of it's
orlginators, and does not depend
upon hired help in any official or
supervising capacity.
Every dollars worth of stock
in the concern is and always has
been owned and controlled by the
Growing family, there being no
outside stockholders or speculat-
ors to 'kick" for big dividends,
or influence the keeping Of
cheaper goods for more profits.
There are a good many small
merchants and some large ones
who make a special low price
on certain cheap articles, and
who are not prepared to do this
on the highest grade goods if
they wanted to.
The lowest prices on high
grade merchandise of guaranteed
value, together with reputation,
honesty of purpose, has made
this store what it is today.
Yours truly,
Greving's Department Store.

at the international milk congress, the
compulsory pasteurization of milk as
means of effectively improving the supply
Of milk. DR.. Colt said that the employ pas

cause II would remove the incentive to the
public to compel the producer to accomplish
an Improvement Pasteurized milk in bulk
is not only intrinsically less desirable than
clean raw milk, declared DR.. Colt, but is
actually unsafe unless 1t is consumed within
twenty four hours and is kept at or below

compulsory pasteurization of the milk sup

radical measures for its eradication from

live in these cities, and expose all who live

of synod is Ended.

GRAND ISLAND, Neb., Sept. 15.-(Spe-
cial 1.-THE annual convention OF the Ne
braska synod of the general synod OF the
Lutheran church came to close this even
ing with an ordination service, Messrs. g.
F. Gunderman of Sidney, G. Klatt OF STAN
ford and Charles r. Lowe of Rising City
being ordained into the holy office. The
sacraments of holy communion and con-
firmation were features OF the morning

I tary; Rev. NJ L. MeliclS, Omaha, historian;

Some changes were made in the constitu-
tion OF the synod the only one OF possible
general interest to the laity being that no
licenses will be granted to unordained
ministers. Several other similar changes
were made, bringing the Nebraska synod
more within the general Lutheran polity.
A very satisfactory report was made in
the matter of the progress Of the Tabitha
home at Lincoln, which has been acquired
in recent years by this synod. and which
will be devoted TO hospital purposes. The
synod having here a promising state insti-
tuition, one which 1t is hoped to develop
| into much larger usefulness, resolution
was introduced looking to the removal OF
the western seminary OF the church now
at Atchison, Kan, to Lincoln. Tho resolu-

Contractor i'm Receiver,s Hands.

AMES, Ia, Sept. 16.-(special THE
authorities at the Iowa State college here
are face to face with a knotty problem
in the shape OF a receivership. into which
the firm OF Henry w. schleuter has gone.
Mr.. Schleuter is the contractor who has
built over 81, 100000 worth OF buildings for
the state at the Ames institution, the last
few years and he is now engaged in con-
structing the new agricultural building to
cost some 100000 and to be completed the
coming year. Some time ago he became
entangled to such an extent that a sub
contractor who has been doing work for
him. applied for a receivership. That day
work was stopped on the Ames buildings,
but 1t was shortly resumed. People thought
that the matter was not very serious but
II appears now that there may have have
been more to Il than was supposed, for
two meetings have been held with the
governor, members OF the Ames trustees
and members OF Schleuter's Arm, and Moth
ing has been accomplished. One OF these
meetings was held in the college buildings
and one was held at Des Moines. I'm the
governors office. last week. and again
nothing was accomplished. In each case
the members OF the bond committee which
carry schleuter failed TO appear Another
meeting is set for the middle OF the COM
ing week and It is thought by Secretary
Stanton OF the board OF trustees and others
closely associated with the matter that
something may be done.

John RichardsOn Worked Ministers
by smooth Trick.

FREMONT. Sept. 15.-(Special John
Richardson, who attempted 20 swindle Fre-
mont ministers out OF small sums here
yesterday. pleaded guilty to vagrancy this
morning in justice court and was sentenced
to thirty days in the county pail.
He was identified as the same man who
worked the Lincoln ministers in the same
way last April and had done the same
kind OF a trick in Omaha and the western
part OF the state.
Each of his intended victims here says
the man showed thorough knowledge of
law and creeds OF the different churches
and is a very smooth fellow. His scheme
was to call at the house of a clergyman
tell him that himself and family were
members of his denomination and had just
moved onto a farm a few miles from town
He had a baby he wanted baptized the
next day, when he and his wife would be
in and would bring In some vegetables
and could the minister pay him in ad-
vance? The scheme, he said generally
worked.

at Topeka.

circuit court here last night, ordered the

kins The work shall be done and an
autopsy performed under the direction Of
an eminent pathologist and an eminent
chemist, to be selected by agreement by

pressly stated that the court held no views
regarding the cause of the death of Mr..
