The efforts of the officers to locate
the whereabouts of the missing Joseph
Miniohiello was doubled this morn :
ing and quite large number of men
are digging up the ground in different
places near the river. Since the
bodies Of the three others were not
thrown into the river. the natural
supposition would be that the body of
the last disappearing man is also
buried.
There is place near the Bavori
shack which il explored thoroughly
might disclose the body. When Officer
Furniss made the first investi cation
be noticed that Bavori's wheel barrow
had been pushed from the house to
a point near the bank of the river,
just west Of the hog pen and that
some one had taken hold Of the fence
posts and pushed the embankment
over. Careful investigation also
proves that there had been blood on
the barrow, but that 1t had been
scraped off.
About ten feet Of the en- mbankment
had been pushed off aud IL a hole had
been dug at all for the bod y, 1t il
probable there is seven or eight feet
Of dirt on top Of the corpse. Men are
investigating this place today.
Others are down near the soda springs
where Bavori's wagon WAS traced over
the Santa Fe road.
Bavori WAS brought down here yes
terday and led the officers merry
chase over the landscape from his
shack to the soda springs. but he
would not tell anything. Bavori is
now believing that the officers have
swallowed his story about Joe killing
tho Others and then disappearing, and
thinks himself safe. As long AS he
entertains that feeling 1t is likely
he will never divuige any informa-
tion concerning the burial place OF
that party.
He has been brought down here
three different times In the last few
days, and II WAS necessary to bring
him here twice before he would con-
sent to show the place where the
three were exhumed. Twice he has
gone down the railroad track In the
vicinity Of the not springs. and In
all probability he passed the place

WH|SKEY RUINS
THIS FAMILY
TWO SONS AND DAUGHTER IN
JAIL AND MOTHER IN HOS
PlTAl FROM BEATING GIVEN
HER BY HEARTLESS SON

The McFarling family, of
Spangle made a record in police
annals when within an hour or so
of one another, Elsie, age 1S, was
arrested for frequenting saloons;
Rue, age 26, for carry revolver,
and Wilbur, age %, for beating his
mother. The police were first call
ed to the Wellington house, when
it was reported that Rue and Will
bur were fighting. Both were taken
to the station, but only Rue was
booked because he had the weapon
in his possession. They had been
quarreling in their room since mid
night.
About $50 the police were again
called to the Wellington, this time
to stop fight in another room. 1t
was Mrs. McFarling's apartment,
and Wilbur had been beating her
about the body with his fists. 9th
er roomers say she tried to stifle
her cries of anguish as she plead
ed with her Oldest son not to hurt
her and thus get into Jail, where
his brother and sister were. Will
bur needed her not, but continued
to knock her around. Then the

RUSH WORK TO
AVOID HIGH
WATER

Yesterday the north abuttment
of the Washington st. bridge was
completed and. today the false
work for the arches is being put
into place. Three shifts will be
set at work from now on, as the
speed with which the work goes
ahead is all that will save the
false work from being carried out
by high water. It Is expected that
If high water does not come before
April 25, the work will be so far
ahead that theh false work will be
out of the way. Every year high
water brings branches of trees,
logs and other debris down the
river, and If the water reaches the
high mark this spring a certain
amount of damage is sure to re-
suit.
In case anything which would de-
lay the work SHOULD happen, 1t
may be necessary to put a force
of men at work widening the river
lower down. At Washington st.
the channel is narrow and deep,
and in consequence when the water
Is high the river here becomes a
raging torrent that hurls logs and
other debris into the air.
Both City Engineer Ralston and
Mayor Moore have written to vari-
GUS people of surrounding towns
asking information as to the
amount of snowfall during the win
ter and how it compares with last
winter. Some answers from the
Occur d'Alenes is to the effect that
the snowfall was only about half
of what it has been in past winters
Unless excessive hot weather
should melt these SHOWS too fast,
the river will probably not exceed
the high water mark Of last year

1t is simple, cheap and practical.
Any mother can make the outfit.
And when baby is inside it there is
never a chirp OF discomfort from
him.
From one pattern the entire set
of garments may be cut. In order
to dispense with unnecessary
seams a modified kimono pattern
may be used, requiring a single,
seam under the arm. On the first
garment this seam is flattened and
sewed on the right side.
The first garment is made of the
softest flannel obtainable and is cut
26 inches long. The second garment
is duplicate, with the exception
that it is made without sleeves.
The little outer dress, cut from the
same pattern, is made of any fine
white material. The neck and
sleeves are finished with dainty
lace or embroidery.
Before dressing the baby the gar
ments may be put one within the
other, and all thus adjusted at one
time. Four sets of the undergar-
ments and eight dresses ought to
be sufficient for the baby.

the law. He undoubtedly had the
support Of all the other laundry
firms in the state of Oregon.
When an institution Of such vital
Importance to a community as the
telephone company can grant girls
and women eight hours, and many
of the busiest stores are able to
follow the same rule, there is no
excuse for laundrymen or other en-
ployers that still maintain the ante

limit of human endurance. Eight
hours is long enough for any man
to work, and the same principle APP
plies with added emphasis to

She is not seriously hurt, but her

Detective Lister, who was con-

before he came to Spokane, is well
acquainted with the family. He
says Mrs. McFarling was once a

boys, who with the father, still live

WASHINGTON, Feb. 25.-Noth-
ing would bring greater distress to
Mrs. Robley ID. Evans, wife of the
admiral of the American feet, than
war with Japan, for she has a deep
seated and abiding love for the
Japanese.

ton, and their religious faith, are

RESERVATION SALOON
MUST CLOSE

A number of saloons situated
within the boundaries of the Nez
Perez Indian reservation in Idaho
have been put out of business by a
recent decision of the U. S. SUI
preme court. The ruling affirms
a sentence of Imprisonment against
an Indian for selling liquor pro-
cured from white men to other In
dians. The NeZ Perez treaty pro-
vides that no liquor shall ever be
sold on the reservation. Saloons
have been started in towns in the
reservation lines and about 35 of
these will be closed.

WASHINGTON, d. c., Feb. 25.-
How is the temperance crusade
throughout the country, with its at

going to affect the farmer?
All over the United States this
question is arising. The liquor
people are stimulating the appre-
hension by the claim that it par
ticulariy will reduce the demand
for corn
The internal revenue department
sayes there will be no material
loss to the farmer.
Secretary Wilson, of the agricul-

not more than 36,000,000 bushels,
