To Make Park Of Old Cemetery.

Sexton w. H. V. Richards is now
working on the removal of the bodies
in the old cemetery on east Main
street to the Prairie View cemetery in
the northeast part of the city. Last
week thirteen bodies were transferred
to the new cemetery, and several
were moved in from the country to
the city cemetery. 1t is the purpose
of the city to transform the old ceme-
tery into beautiful park, and a more
slightly and desirable location could
not be selected in the city. AS the
city has grown and spread, it has
been apparent to all that it was only
matter of time until the change would
have to be made. In view of this
the city council took the initiatory
steps some time since for the removal
of the bodies and the turning of the
valuable plot of ground int a park.
This will greatly enhance the eastern
portion of the city for residence pur-
poses.

GRANGEVILLE'S
FIRST CIRCUS
Sells-Floto Aggregation Will
Probably Visit Us
June FL.

Ed {. Warner, traffic manager for
the -Eloto circus, was in the city
recently to see what the outlook
was for showing in our city in the
near future, In response to inquiries
from Globe scribe Mr.. Warner
said: my company will be in Lew
iston soon, and having heard so much
of the Grangeville and Camas Prairie
country, | determined to take run
over the new line, and see if the track
was in shape so that we could bring
our big aggregation up and give you a
gala day. The road is much better
than | expected to find it, and your
country far surpasses my expectations,
although | was prepared to see good
country, and have decided to report
favorably to our manager at St. Paul.
The manager will have to make the
final decision, but / think you are safe
in counting on visit from us. We
carry between 80 and 40 cars and we
will have to run them in four sections,
with two engines to the section. This
will require eight engines to land US
here, and will be quite expensive, but
in my judgement conditions will just
fy the effort. Our date here will be
Monday, June FL, which will give us
Sunday to run from Palouse to Grange
vile, and Monday night we will re-
turn and fill our date at Lewiston next
} day."

"Hot Tamale Man" Dead.

George Surbeck, the old German
better known around town as the hot
tamale man." died Tuesday from
general debility and old age after
short illness. He was 73 years of age
and had been resident of this place
and Grangeville for several years past.
While i'll he stated that he had two
brothers back east who were quite
wealthy but would not say where they
were located and did not want them
informed of his death. Surbeck had
money enough to defray the expenses
of his funeral but had no property
other than the little shack he occupied
east of the hotel. The funeral was
held Wednesday afternoon, the re-
mains being inferred in the local
Protestant cemetery. - Cottonwood

ENTHUSIASTIC
CLUB MEETING
Large Attendance of Citizens
Attend Commercial Club
Session.

Grangeville, Ida, April 10th, 'O9.
AT meeting of the governing
board of the Commercial Club of this
city, held Monday evening at the
club rooms, members to the number
of fifty, evidenced their interest in the
new management, by being present,
expecting the board would name the
committees for the ensuing term.
President |. c. Hauabaugh ex-
planned to them that he was not quite
ready to do so, and the meeting was
then turned into a general meeting
for the benefit of the club. Major
F. A. Fem of Kooskia, Supervisor
of the Bitter Root Forest Reserve,
S. |. Macpherson, chief ranger in
this county, and Mr.. Joseph Kincaid
of Lewiston were present as guests of
the club.
The opportunity to learn from
Major Fem and Mr.. Mac PherSon,
much valuable information concern
ing the Reserve, and more especially
concerning the moneys which have
lately become a portion of our county
funds, by reason of the new law,
whereby an increased percentage of
the Forest Reserve funds are turned
over to those counties, in which the
Reserve may hold possession of lands
was made special topic for consid-
Grafton. After a brief speech by
President Hattabaugh, he introduced
Major Fem and requested him to
take the floor and address the club or
matters pertaining to this part of the
Forest Reserve affairs, which SC
greatly interests the people of Idaho
county.
Major Fem proved to be both al
excellent speaker, and one well fittet
to converse on the subject. And thu
club received information which
certainly will appreciate, coming from
source of authority so highly con
nected with that department.
The people of this county may con
gratulate themselves on the fact tina
the county has received an amount o
money from the Forest Reserve funds
something like S16, 900. 90, as it
share on the new basis of apportion
ment, this being twenty-five per cen
of the states apportionment, from th'
Forest Reserve Fund.
The Major further stated, that O
this $40, 900. 90 Seventy-hve per cen
is to be placed in the hands of ou
county commissioners, as a specla
road fund, and the remaining twenty
FIVE per cent is turned over to tn
school fund of the county.
The seventy-hve per cent as desig
mated for roads, is left (by law i
the commissioners hands to be dis
bursed, as in their discretion the
NAV deem most wise, yet recommend
: ing them to use necessary porto
of such fund, for the building c
trails and roads, in that part of tn
county lying within the Forest Re
serve boundaries.
Tax-paying readers will find muc
satisfaction in the knowledge that tn
will relieve them from much OF tn
> burden of the past, inasmuch as it WI
not be now necessary to expend tn
! funds of the county, which are CO

owners of lands or personal property
to keep up or build the trails an
