Narrow Escane.

E., R. Headly, at his farm three
miles east of Troy, had a very narrow
escape from death Tuesday. He was
hauling in his hay, and discovered that
the loft needed repairing. There was
at the time some three tons of hay in
the loft. Mr.. Headly went inside the
barn and commenced driving in some
spikes to strengthen the'structure when
with crach, everything above came
down. He happened to be close to a
partition and the tons of weight rubbed
him SO close that the ends of the boards
and timbers raked the skin off his face
and otherwise bruised him severely, a
quantity of sacked oats struck him on
the head nearly breaking his neck and
giving him bad bruise on the back Of
his head. His cries for help brought
his wife who moved sack after sack off
from over his head and finally released
him. Mr.. Headly says that but for the
quick work of his wife he would have
soon been crushed to death.

While the loss Of grain crop would
be serious, and mean hard times for
the Palouse country towns, with moth
ing but wheat and a pay day once a
year, Troy would go right on being a
good town because we have something
besides wheat to exchange for the
elusive dollar. Our wood crop is par
ticularly good, yielding about 90 bush
els pei acre and the price is now
around SIS. And-then there is work
here the year around, which means
that there will always be little cash
in circulation twelve months in the
year. There is a reason why Troy is
the best town in Latah county.

RYAN IS BEING
DOOMED FOR MAYOR
TAYLOR MAY NOT HAVE 1T ALL
HIS OWN WAY IN RACE FOR
THE PLUM.

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. go
While the sentimentalists in republic
can politics are saying that the SEN
timent of the business community
demands the nomination of Mayor Il.
r. Taylor by the republican conven-
ton, the practical young men of the
party who are backing Daniel A.
Ryan for the job are getting the
delegations together and pledging
the votes of the delegates to the
young lawyer.
I'VE want an active young man in
the mayors chair" said Jack Welsh,
the referee, last night. q think Dan
Ryan is the brightest young man in
the whole republican party, and he
deserves the nomination"
This was on top of the humping
resolutions adopted by the delegation
from the Thirty-second assembly dis
trict favoring Ryan's nomination.
The meeting was at Bent's hall and
the resolutions were pat in favor of
Ryan. There are ten delegates who
have votes to back the resolutions. =.
In this district there was a combi-
nation ticket put up between the
Ryan men and the Organization"
followers. 1t has been supposed that
some of these organization men
would come out against Ryan, but
they seem to have pledged themselves
in advance to support him, and if the
followers of Herrin have made any
efforts they do not seem to have met
with success.

ROOT TO SANITARIUM
ON ROOSENEIT'S ADVICE

NEW YORK, Aug. 29.-Elihu
Root, the secretary of state, who is
recuperating at William Muldoon' S
sanitarium near White Plains, has
improved greatly since he entered the
institution several days ago. Mr..
Muldoon, in talking of his distin-
guished patient, said this morning:
THE secretary of state came to us
few days ago just tired out and in
need of nervous upbuilding. He is
doing finely. Today Mr.. Root said
he felt Just bully He has two
hours a day to look after his large
correspondence. | cannot say just
how long Secretary Root will remain
here. That depends both on the ra-
pidity of his improvement and also
on the condition of state business, |
suppose. At any rate, Mr.. Root is
getting on in fine shape"
1t is now known that Secretary
Root went to Muldoon's on the adj
vice of President Roosevelt and that
the latter visited him secretly at the
sanitarium several days ago to see
how he was getting along.

OF THE STENCIL

A terrible stencil greeted those
who entered the court house early
yesterday morning and for half an
hour or so the officials hunted for
the cause of the annoyance. They
finally located it in Deputy County
Clerk Oldfeld' department. Some
time ago the clothing of man who
had been badly stabbed, was placed
in the vault. The clothing was COW
cred with blood and this was the
cause of the trouble. 1t was quickly
thrown out of the building.
