THOUSANDS
TRYING TO
GET FARM

There are plenty of dusty look
ing strangers in town today to reg
lister for the Spokane reservation
land opening. and many of the au-
thorized notaries have had a con-
slant string of applicants. The
registering began promptly at mid
night. although there was not the
slightest need of beginning this
early, as all will have the same
chance in the drawing The period
for registration is open to August 5.
+ At 1890 last night one individual
applied to the postoffice to be reg
istered. In spite of newspaper pub
lication covering the land drawing
procedure there is a great deal OF
ignorance on the question and
much time is lost in explanations
that would have been unnecessary
had the applicants read the papers
carefn',7- and remembered what
they read.
From ifesent indications the
number registered here for chances
on less than 200 farms in the Spo-
kane reservation will run far into
the thousands. Many applicants
are taking the time and spending
money to register at all three
places in order to triple their
chances. Probably the great ma
jority of those who register here
will also register at Occur d'Alene,
and vice versa.

EX-CIRCUS EMYLOYE
GIVES HOEDUP STORY

All covered with well dried mire
from the street, G. H. Wallace, who
left the Hagenbach-Wal circus
here June 2S, appeared at the po-
lice station about 5 o'clock this
morning, telling the officers that
he had been held up on the plat.
form of the Great Northern depot
three hours before.
He declared he had been robbed
of about Sc by a man with whom
he had been drinking throughout
the greater part of the night Be
cause of Wallace's slowness in re-
porting the alleged robbery, the po-
lice are inclined to disbelieve his
story, but are investigating.
He attempted to give no further
description of the alleged thug than
that he wore blue serge coat.
Wallace said his assailant knocked
him down and held him in the gut
ter while he extracted his money
from his pockets.

WALKED GUARD RAIL:
NEARLY COSTS LIFE

Officer Frank Bunker performed
the part of a hero last night when
he rescued James Johnson from
the river after he had fallen from
the Stevens street bridge and was
lying at the bottom, unconscious.
Johnson, who is an iron moulder,
had been drinking quite freely dur
ing the afternoon and attempted
to walk the guard rail of the
bridge. He was too unsteady for
the feat, however, and fell in the
river, striking his head on a pier
as he went down. That jolt cut a
deep cash in his scalp and render
ed him unconscious. A witness
phoned the police and Officer
Bunker was the first man to re-
spond. He rescued Johnson ana
took him TO the emergency hos
pital.

IN any way reflecting on her. She
toiled along alone when her hus-
band had to go away to work. as
she is toiling along now, but then
it was in hope, while now it is in
the determination that comes when
one has to keep doing the everyday
things of life, no matter what has
happened. She is trying to take
the best view of the situation in
face of the fact that five years of
the hardest kind of labor have

In the opinion of some who have
investigated the case, there would
have been no occasion for the trag-

had a wife and Falkstraw none,
and that Falkstraw was wallowing

Scholl was a good neighbor. So
