She has not been well for some time,

Messrs. Powell and Canaan, who
are freighting between here and
Grangeville, put up at Arthur Over
mans at Tolo over night short time
ago. They report large shipments of
goods to the Salmon River Store Co.,
which speaks well for the business en-
terprise of our merchants.
O. II. Evans and c. E. McHue
killed a large brown bear on the
breakes of the Salmon, four miles from
this place. Also her cub was taken
alive. The gentlemen were not hunt
ing at the time, but the animal was
aroused by their dogs near the spot
where they were working. She was
vicious and at once showed fight in
defence Of her young and McHue, who
was evidently nearer to her with gun
in hand assembled a tree for safety,
when Evans soon appeared with a
5000 and shot her in one eye killing
her instantly. The cub, a large nice
one, is for sale.

One Of the Idaho County Sunday
School Conventions convenes here on
Thursday April 22nd at 10 o'clock
a. IN. in the Odd Fellows Hall. As
this is the first of the kind ever held
here it ought to be, and probably will
be, largely attended and IN every way
well patronized. C. j. Bappell, gen.
eral superintendent of the Inland EN-
pire Sunday School Association, will
be present and make two or three add
dresses. A. G. Saxton from Grange
vile, president of the County Associ-

ing and training ofchildren and young
people.
A farmers telephone line from this
place to Grangeville to connect with

with favorable consideration.
Behean Jones 4 Co., who already

WHITEBIRD

Over thirty of the friends and rela
tives of the family of Judge Taylor
met at his residence on the 18th Of
April and all enjoyed very pleasant
day with music, singing, chatting and
talking over old times. 1t. was the
occasion of the sixtieth birthday Of
Mrs. Taylor. Mrs. Taylor has been
quite poorly for several weeks but is
considerable better at this writing and
enjoyed very much this expression Of
kindness on the part of her friends and
neighbors. We hope she will soon
fully recover from all her physical
weaknesses and again be strong.

WARREN

Mary Woliston, aged fourteen,
walked from the Werdonhoff mine on
Big creek, to Cadby's ranch on the
Southfork Of Salmon river, to attend
school. She came out with the War
ren-Logan mail carrier and the day
was SO cold she had to walk to keep
from freezing. The distance is twenty
five miles.
Quite number of salmon have
been caught by the fishers on the
Southfork.
In moving some Of the campers to
the fishing ground Carl Brown had
the misfortune to lose valuable
horse by rolling him off of the trail
into the river at the Brewer bridge.
Mrs. Carl Brown left Warren Mon
day for the ranch on the river to live
the life Of a farmers wife.

rem, is on the river attending school,
The little five year old son of Mr..
Knox is going to school.
Only about fifteen people wintered
in Warren last winter. We are still
prisoners by being snow-bound. War
rem, in the winter time, is equal to a
penitentiary. Some people are like a
lat OF grey-backs. Give them room
to run around in and they get along
fairly well, but pen them in close
quarters and they will fight. They
remind me Of the little boys answer
when traveller asked him what the
inhabitants did for a living. .They
skin strangers, said the boy. ''But, ;"
said the traveller, suppose no strangers
come along ''Then they skin each
other,' replied the boy.
We are just now having an epidemic
OF gossip of the most disagreeable kind.
There is promise of suit for Islander.
The gates Of Warren are all closed
now and inside the gates, oh! what a
row; if people must depend upon only
themselves for pleasure and pastime,
there will enter evil fairies and mis-
chievious elves to tantalize poor hui
man kind and cause storm in each
small mind, for the brain is matured
not any too we'll, but rattles around
like a dry nut in its shell. Tongues
rattle too in spite Of all you can do.
