Respectable And Decent.

When a good boy becomes a
good man and makes a good
record, his parents glow with
pride. How they talk about him
and admire him. When a boy
goes to ruin, his parent avoid the
mention of his name. How
ashamed they are. Why should
not boys have an ambition to
succeed, and please their parents
and friends. We wonder if it
ever occurs to boys that the
young man who makes a success
in life works less and, has an
easier time than the man who
becomes noted as a bum. 1t is
the truth. The man who sue
ceeds lives comfortably. The
man who goes to the dogs lives
on free lunch largely, and every
time he takes bite the bartend-
er looks grudingly at him. 1t is
a horrible life to be a failure, a
drunkard or a loafer. 1t is
much easier to be respectable,
decent and industrious. Field
and Farm.

started to take his prisoner to
jail another Dago rushed up and
made a pass at him with a long
knife. The officer pulled his gun
and held the man off and the
other Dagoes at once gathered
round and knives were flashing
on every side. Several citizens
rushed to the marshal's support
with big revolvers and the chat
tering Dagoes concluded the bet
ter part of valor would be to let
the law take it's course. After a
friend paid his $40 fine the ar
rested man was later released
and taken to camp by his com
panions.
Had the Dagoes been a little
more drunk or had the citizens
been a little slower in coming to
the marshal's assistance blood
would probably have been shed
and had the ball once opened it
would hardly have stopped until
the Dagoes were all made
good" ones.

Close upon the saloon robbery
of last week comes the news of
the cracking of Joseph Schober's
safe in his brewery last week and
the theft of $100 it contained.
The robbery was evidently com
mitted on Wednesday night Of
last week but Mr.. Schober did
not discover the loss until Friday
evening. Oke Sanders, who was
sleeping in the brewery, heard
the burglars inside and told Mr..
Schober next morning of it but
as he discovered the $12 lying
loose in the drawer of his desk
had not been disturbed he
thought it was a false alarm and
did not examine the safe. Later
when he opened the safe he
found the cash(box cut out and
missing, togetH Her with the $1OO
it contained. The evening of
the robbery KT. Schober forgot
to turn the Id tk from the day
combination sol that all the rob
bers had to do was to turn the
combination lalf way around
and the safe was open. Candle
sperm on topI Of the safe showed
that they we're at work some
time before getting the cash box
out of the safe. From the fact
that the key to the Office door
was taken without trouble from
it's accustomed hiding place Mr.,
Schober felt certain the robbery
was committed by someone per-
fectly familiar with the brewery
and his habits and later caused
Marve Sanders and Tony Smith
to be arrested and searched but
as nothing could be found to
implicate them with the robbery
they were released. Just who
did the job is mystery al
though most people believe that
one or two persons are RESPONSE
BILE for all of the thefts committed
here this year. Those who were
arrested are not thought to be
guilty but that sneak thieves
are located here cannot be dis.
puted and until they are arrested
or driven out of town it will
stand all people in hand to keep
their valuables and money vel
secured all of the time. We
believe the city authorities
should adopt drastic measures tc
discover the guilty ones and il
nothing else can be done all sus.
picious characters should be re.
quired to move on. With E
couple dozen to suspect it is {
difficult matter to locate any one
definitely but if the thefts still
continue after the suspected
ones have left town it should not
be so hard to locate the rea
thieves.

Another Pioneer Gone.

pioneer has gone to his reward.
August Kopczynski, Sr., whose
illness we mentioned last week,
died at his home east of town about
4:2o o'clock Saturday morning
of pneumonia and lung fever.
The deceased was 90 years, 10
months and 20 days of age when
he died. He was born on Febru-
ary I4th, 1874, at what is now the
city of Raises esrwald e, German Po-
land, and resided there until 1860
when he enigrated to this country
and spent several years in Illinois,
Wisconsin and Minnesota. In
1872 he was united in marriage to
Marie Kaschinsky at Chicago and
to this union ten children were
born, five of whom are still living.
In 1874 he moved with his family
to Kansas where he resided for Ia
years, coming to Idaho and sett-
ling on Camas Prairie in 1887
where he remained until his death.
On reaching this place with his
family he was practically penniless
but took up homestead east of
this place and also soon started a
blacksmith shop here and by hard
work and careful saving managed
to acquire considerable property
and a nice home which he was just
beginning to have time to enjoy
when called to the great beyond.
The deceased was a man of great
integrity and fine qualities. An
ardent believer in his religion, al
ways ready to support his church
and schools and aid any public
enterprise he considered worthy
the first to minister to the sick and
afflicted and always ready and will
ing to share his mite with the
needy. During his twenty years
residence here his good deeds have
been without number and no
worthy one in need of aff1iction has
been turned away from his door.
His friends are legion and the en-
tire country mourns for a good
man departed.
Mr.. Kopczynski was man of
strong character and one who fol-
lowed the dictation of his own
heart, which seldom led him es-
tray He was deep thinker and
when he once had a thing figured
out to his own satisfaction he fol-
lowed it unswervingly to compile
ton.
Thus, with life filled with good
deeds and actions and devoted with
reverence to the Almighty one he
has gone to the higher life and is
now in receipt of a reward such as
few will excel in this life.
The deceased leaves a wife and
FIVE children, a son and four
daughters, to mourn his departure.
Of the children two daughters,
Mary and Cecilia, are single, and
the other two, Mrs. Anton Nuxoll
and Mrs. Lloyd Crosby, are mar
ried, as is the son, August Kop-
czynski, Jr.
The funeral was held Sunday
afternoon, the remains being in
tered in the local Catholic Gene
terry, and the large concourse of
people who attended the last rites
bore silent evidence to the esteem
in which the deceased was held.
Had the roads been a little less inn
passable and notice of the time set
for the funeral more widely
known the entire country side
would have been present.
The bereaved family has the
sympathy of the entire community
in their loss and may rest secure

in the belief that no truer Christian
was ever called home than he who
has just been taken.
Peace be to his ashes.

EASTER SUNDAY
Is Universally Observed by the
Churches of the CITY.

Although Easter sunday came earlier
than usual this year and although the
season is somewhat more back ward than
could be wished for, the various churches
of Aberdeen not only observed the day
by holding special services but the fora
display was quite good.
Music formed an important part OF the
exercises in all the churches, especially
the Episcopal church under choirmaster
Richards, who with a chorus of 50 voices
has been drilling for several weeks fol
this occasion.
This year. the Knights Templars were
the guests OF the Presbyterian church in
the mornino, and in the evening, the

decorations.
In the Congregational church, Prof.
Gylfe, violinist, and Miss Bessie Hubert,
organist, rendered several duets. and

vice over to the Sunday School. The
decorations in this church We're made OF
apple blossoms and ferns.
The decorations in the NJ. E. church
were composed largely OF evergreens and
Easter lilies, and the services both
