SPOKANE MERCHANTS
ENJOY HOLIDAY TRADE

Retailers report that the holiday
trade in Spokane amounted to be-
tween S6,50O,OOO and $1,000, 600 this
season, breaking all former records.
Frank W. Smith, who has been in
business here for % years, says that
Christmas buying, which began early
in December, was the largest in the
history of the city. Nearly $500
GOO worth of holiday goods We're
bought in Spokane for distribution in
various parts of the country. Re-
ports of increased trade also come
from other parts of the Spokane coun-
try and the Northwest. Charles w.
Dillingham;, president of the Spokane
Merchants association, declares the
output this year was from % to so
per cent larger than in 1900. The job
bing trade shows an increase of So,
100000 for the year, the estimate of
1910 being s32,00O,000, while manu-
featuring concerns produced goods
valued at S29,500,000. The bank

HOXEy IS HERO Of
BIG AVIATION MEET

Los Angeles, Cal Dec. 26.-Archie
HoXsey is the hero of the aviation
meet today. Yesterday he ascended
to a height Of 1900 feet, turned off
his engines and shot earthward. He
didn't right his planes until within
five hundred feet of the ground.
His height record yesterday cor
rected today, shows he ascended
92SS feet
Willard shows he is the premier
marksmen of the birdmen. Armed
with oranges, representing bombs he
dropped ten out of 25 on a space the
size of a battleship deck at a height
of 1000 feet.
Aerial warfare will be the effort of
the aviation enthusiasts Wednesday if
the consent of the aviation commit
tee to the scheme proposed today can
be secured. Willard plans to carry
aloft real bombs, constructed on speci-
fications furnished by the federal war
department and hurl them at targets
in San Pedro hills near the field. He
will vancouver as though real forti-
fications or battleship were his OBJ
ject and his aerial attack will have
all the characteristics of grim reality
The consent of the committee must
be obtained because of the danger
that attaches to such an exhibition.

SE|BERT TAILOR SHOP
IS BURGLAR|zED

Santa Claus was evidently not very
good to someone who decided to retail
late by taking the presents that were
not put in his stockings The Siebert
Tailoring shop next door to the East
Oregonlan was selected as a place
where something useful could be had
by little effort. That effort con-
sisted in breaking out a window in
the rear of the building. The open
ing made, an entrance was effected
and a large assortment of suits lay
before the burglar. He selected very
carefully from these, choosing three
of the best in the shop, besides an
overcoat and an extra pair of pants
With the exception of the pants, all Of
the apparel was the property of Gus
toners Of the shop.
Mr.. Siebert discovered his loss this
morning when he opened his shop
and Immediately reported it to the po-
lice who are now on the lookout for
the stolen property.
Mr.. Siebert is of the opinion that
there has been a gang waiting for an
opportunity to rifle his shop as an at
tempt was made about a week ago
when the burglars were frightened
away by the sudden entrance to the
shop of one of the men employed in

BAD CHECK ARTIST
PICKS WRONG MAN

Another bad check artist has run
afoul of the Pendleton police force and
is now making a cell in the city bas-
tile his headquarters Last|evening a
stranger, rather old and resembling
a sheepherder in appearance, appear
ed in the Henneman cigar store on
Main street and presented a check for
$50 which he asked to be cashed He
had two in his possession, one of which
was made out to Michael Neal and the
other to George Mitchell and both
bore the signature of Afford Smith.
Mr.. Henneman was suspicious and
refused to accept the paper. The man
then offered another fellow in the
store a quarter if he would cash it
for him. This attempt also failed af-
ter which the man proceeded to the
saloon of William Hoch but received
a similar reception. He then went
back to the Henneman cigar store and
repeated his request and was again re-
fused. When he left the store he was
nabbed by Night Officer Shears who
had been following him from place
to place.
Alfred Smith is a son of ]. E Smith
OF the j. h. smith LIVESTOCK company
but all checks made out by him bear
the name of the company Another
blunder of the forger was the mis-
spelling of the first name. The
checks were written in a beautiful
hand while the endorsement which
was written on the back when the
fellow attempted to get one check
cashed by another was in a very poor
scrawl. This leads the officers to be-
lieve that there may be two men work
ing together. In the possession of
the one captured was a full book of
checks on the American National
bank and also something over SIS in
cash which makes it probable that
he had met with better success else
where.
The man chose an opportune time
for his attempt as the banks will not
be open before tomorrow morning
and he would have had time to make
a safe getaway before the fraud was
discovered.

Martin J. Vessels, superintendent of

JOY upon joys, there sat the girl of his
heart-strring adventure. She saw
him as quickly as he saw her and her
smile invited him to the seat beside

services came a stroll and it was a
merry Christmas indeed for the Barn

But after the dream always comes

must all illusions be dispelled. SO Il
happened in this case. While the two

Los Angeles, Cal, Dec. 26.-That
an explosion that partially wrecked
the plant of the Llewellyn Iron works
yesterday was caused by dynamite is
the unanimous belief of the plant
owners and the police who have be-
gan an investigation. 1t is believed
that a low grade of dynamite was set
off by long fuse. A portion of the
fuse has been found. The loss Is about
100000. Night watchman ]. Ashbury
a negro, was slightly injured.
The authorities are searching for
three men seen running away shortly
before the explosion occurred.
Many believe some disgruntled for
mer employees are guilty.
The first floor was badly wrecked
floor was weakened
The company is one of the largest
in the West, and has been involved
in the recent iron works strike.
Our plant was dynamited," said
Secretary John Llewellyn. This mis-
erGble affair is part of plot to get
US. 1t was committed by enemies of
the company and l am willing to say
they were not non-unlon men. We will
spare no expense to get at the bottom
Of this affair."

reau admitted their belief in the dyna-
mite theory. Flammer is conducting

British Columbia will make deter
mined efforts early next year to in
GUce farmers to locate in the various
communities, which are now sending

side states for dairy products.
w. j. Langdon, president of the
Washington State Dairymen's associa-
ton, estimates there are $4,000 dairy
cows in the state. David Brown
president Of the Hazlewood company
of Spokane, says there is need for

there are hundreds of thousands of
acres of cut-over timber lands in the
four states and provinces in Canada,
where ample forage can be provided
at a minimum cost. The value of
dairy products in the district in 1910
is placed at S9,O00O0o, ne continued,

RUSH OF MINERS
TO INDIAN RESERVE

veteran prospectors predict that the
most important miners, rush in the
history of the Northwest will follow
the passage of a bill at this session
of congress, opening to entry the min
eral lands of the Spokane Indian res
ervation, northeast of this city. Unit
ed states Senator Wesley L. Jones OF
Washington, who introduced the bill.
advises the Spokane chamber of COM
merce, that its adoption now seems
assured.
More than 20 syndicates have been
formed in Spokane in anticipation of
the passage of the bill, and. as soon
as it becomes a law by the signature
of President Taft, several hundred
prospectors will be rushed into the
district to stake claims.
Enormous deposits of silver, cop
per and tungsten have been traced
across the boundaries of the reserve,
part of which was opened to home
steaders last spring, and at one time
development work was under way on
20 claims, when the prospectors were
elected by agents in the employ of the
United States government
Senator Jones bin provided that
from and after the passage of this
act any lands of the Spokane Indian
reservation, classified and reserved
as timber lands under any act of con-
gress heretofore passed, shall be open
to exploration, location, occupation
and purchase under the mining laws
of the United States"

tary of the Western Conservation as.

Jones in the new measure, declare.
that the timber and mineral provis
ions were purposely left out of the or.
