BoOkkeeper Goes Wrong

VIM. Kircher of Spokane, who
entered the employ OF the Kootenai
Trading Co. about two weeks ago
and worked until last Saturday
night is in trouble. Mr.. Van
Gasken, manager of the company
informs us that the young man Is
short in his accounts. The amount
we did not learn but understand
that it is something over 500.
Kircher is now in Spokane and
his attorneys are very anxious to
effect settlement and to extricate
him from his serious plight.
The shortage was discovered
shortly after Kircher left on a
freight Saturday evening. Sheriff
Doust was wired to and took the
man into custody when the train
reached Standpoint. The sheriff
locked his prisoner in a room and
went to bed in an adjoining room.
The officer took the prisoners
cloths and shoes from him, 50 that
if he attempted to escape he would
have nothing to wear, but Kircher
did not like his room and during
the night took French leave, clad
only in his under clothing and
without shoes. He made good his
getaway, however, but has since
turned up at his home in Spo-
kane where he has a wife and two
children. MIR. VanGasken will go
down Tuesday to see what shall
be done about the prosecution
Kircher is facing a very serious
charge.
1t is said that Kircher comes o.
a good family but drink has beer
his downfall. He ha- ben going
a lively pace for a year or more
and it is reported has squander-
ed $4,000. His pace for the weel
he was in Boomers Ferry is report
ed to have been verv lively. Mat

employers on Saturday. On tina

Whether his conduct is the resul

G. Hosmer, the concrete contractor.
Mr.. Hosmer has a lot on Colorado
avenue, west of the lower Currie
block, where he manufactures and
keeps in stock concrete blocks. This
lot is or rather was. surrounded by
wire fence. Last night the fenc-
ing was removed from the posts and
this morning Mr.. Hosmer- found his
lot open on all sides.
Careful inquiries by City Marshal
o'Neil have failed to locate the stolen
property.
Yesterday the Sentinel announced
that a great many chickens had been
stolen from different residents dur
ing the past four or five days and it
has been suggested that the chicken
thieves decided to purloin fence in
order to make a chicken yard for the
stolen fowls. This is pretty logical
reasoning.
From all accounts there has been
great deal of petty thieving lately.

roo MANY DOCS.

Robert Segrave, who keeps the sa.
loon at Stevens avenue and Henry
street, has bright little boy about
ten years old, who was playing on
John street Friday when large dog,
belonging to a Polish butcher, of Pine
avenue, severely bit the little fellow
on the leg Mr. Segrave had DR..
Treganowan treat the wound and the
dog was shot and this may be all
IRE is to it and 1t may not. The in
dent brings TO our minds certain
fact that there are about two Dr three
thousand more dogs in town than
there ought to be. Why the author
titles permit so many dogs to run at
large in the town when it is viola
tion of the law we are unable TO say
The registering of the many dogs in
the borough, If the law was enforced,
would be source of considerable
revenue to the town. But this Isl
passed by unheeded. Why compel a
man to pay poll tax and let him
keep from one to two dogs without
paying a cent for them? 1t appears
to us that our authorities are lax in
their duties in availing themselves
Of the opportunity of utilizing the
of revenue for our borough
outside of direct taxes.
