NOVEMBER QUIET MONTH FOR POLICE.

During the last few weeks the
most of the policies work has con-
sisted In rounding up drunken Indi-
ans, while an occasional white man
became caught in the net. Those who
have any money usually give bail and
thus secure their freedom. However,
the amount that has been secured
from that source is not near up to
the ordinary receipts from the police
department and the recorders report
for this month will show slack busi-
ness.
owing to the holidays being in
force no sessions of the police court
have been held at all this month, but
by fixing bail for those arrested
Judge Fitz Gerald has been able to
mete out punishment to some ex-
tent. nevertheless.

Eight hundred acres Of excellent

lateral canal by the ton-Freewater
Hudson Bay Irrigation company,
which is now at work on the new

The company already has 1000
acres under irrigation north and west
OF Freewater and is preparing to re-
claim an additional area which lies
adjacent to their irrigation system.
Practically all of the right of way
for the new lateral has been secured.
The lateral starts at the Martin Elan

November is proving to be one OF
the quietest months from a police
standpoint that this city has expert
enced in many years. Thus far only
"a arrests have been made during
the month by the police whereas usu-
ally two or three times that number
are recorded.
That the peace and quietude Of the
past few weeks is partly due to the
money scare is unquestlonably true.
Owing to the difficulty in securing
money many who would otherwise
have left many dollars with the sa-
loon men, have been forced to endure
their thirsts. Others who have been
more fortunate in the matter of pay,
have wisely decided to hold onto it
until the skies again become clear.

WILL COST A MILLION.
National Mining Congress TO Erect
Magnificent Building.

Denver. May 26.-That the mining tenn
pie to be erected in Denver by the Ma
tional Mining congress shall be a magnif-
icent building, to cost million dollars
was practically decided by the executive
committee of the congress at a meeting
i'm this city last night. Secretary James
F. Calbreath had prepared a plan for a
building at cost of 100000 but this did
not meet the views Of President j. II.
Richards of Boise. Ida. who argued that
it was better to delay the construction
until the project can be carried out on
grand scale. He won over the other
members of the committee to his point of
view. and IL was agreed to undertake to
raise S1,O00O00 for building the temple.
The committee issued the formal CAL
for the next meeting of the congress at
Joplin, Mo, Nov. II to Is. The principal
subjects which 1t is hoped to agitate are
the drafting of laws for the prevention
of accidents in mines, the establishment
of uniform laws in all states to establish
side-line location of claims, and the abol-
ition OF the apex rights and general re-
vision OF the mining laws throughout the
country SO that they may be uniform in
all states.

Lexington, Ky, May 26,-Jesse Spicer
is probably the only man in the United
States under indictments for three years
for whom no reward has ever been Of
fered, and who is a fugitive from justice
with no one looking for him. When the

quietly packed his trunk and slipped
away. In the excitement he was not
missed 1t is charged that he carried
away with him many thousands of dol
lars. Detectives employed by northern
investors reported that for several years
Spicer was the leader of band of men
that had received money from all parts
of the United States, advertising extern
swell and selling claims to Breathitt and
Perry county timber land to which they
gave titles. The deeds were executed and
recorded. but the described property was

Spicer had been closely connected with
the Hargises during the reign of assassi-
nation. He has been indicted in both
Breathitt and Fayette counties for the
murders of DIR. Cox, James CockriIl and
James B. Marcum, and is under indict-
ment in Breathitt county for having
forged deeds to hundreds of thousands
of dollars worth of property to which no
title could be given. When last heard

London. May 26.-when parliament

Bannerman will tell the commons what

pass without chance to remind the
country how the Liberals, in his opinion,
mud5led the business. The chances are
