NARROW ESCAPE.

VIM. Briley, who, when at home,
liyes near Whitestone lake, met with
a serious accident Saturday, and his
escape from death was little short of
miracle. He is working for Claude
House, gathering up and breaking
horses, job at which he is an adept.
The horses were being handled short
distance north of Oroville, and Satur-
day, while engaged in teaching frac-
tious horse to be good under saddle
the animal fell upon and rolled over on
him. Young Briley's foot caught in
the stirrup, and the frightened and
perverse cayuse plunged about and fell
on his rider several times before the
foot was extricated The young man
was brought to town in an unconscious
condition, and DR.. Schwabland sum-
moned. Upon examination the doctor
found no bones broken, except a slight
fracture of the upper part of the pelvis
at the back, but the patient was ter.
ribly bruised, and for time it was
feared that he had sustained internal
injuries. At last accounts Briley was
mending, but it will be some time be-
fore he is out and around,

in the Idaho legislature, and has taken
an active part in politics in this state.
He Is rock-ribbed, true blue republi-
can, and cannot endorse the methods
OF the new wing of the democratic
party, pretending to be republicans
and trying to disrupt that party. Per-
sonally Mr.. Price is genial and most
likeable gentleman, and his old friends
were delighted to meet and greet him.
Mr.. Prices mission into Okanogan
county was to look over some silver
lead mining claims he is interested in
located in the Lime Belt, near River
SIDE, The ore is rich and the ledge
large, and with the construction of the
railroad through the valley the claims
can be worked at q profit. Silver-lead
is the ore that attracts attention, and
Mr.. Price has prospective backing to
open up the property on large scale.
Those who know Dick Price trust that
the Lime Belt holdings will make him
a fortune.

Woodcraft, of which she was social
member, having charge of the cere-
monies. Mrs. ]. L. Masters read the

Gle delivered the ritual services. Six
members of the Kings Daughters, of
which organization the deceased was
also q member, acted as pail bearers.
A large concourse OF people followed
the remains to their last resting place.
The death of Mrs. Tillman was a
grevious shock to the community, and
is keenly deplored by wide circle Of
friends. She had always enjoyed ex-
cellent health up to the time of this
fatal illness. She was born, raised and
was married at Green Bay, Wis, CON-
ing west to Loomis with her husband
about eleven years ago. She was 80
years of age, and leaves husband and
five children, the eldest II years of age

sympathetic friend and neighbor. Her

FOURTH OF JULY DANCE.

The All Star ball club does not pro
pose to let the 4th of July slip by with.
out some kind of recognition. 1t will
be a mild and merry celebration, too,
for it takes the shape Of public ball,
in Sigrist hail.. 4th of July evening.
AS the population generally will be at
home, and ripe for amusement, a big
crowd will undoubtedly be present.
1t may be said in this connection that
the All Stars have become fixture.
An organization has been perfected,
suits and an outfit ordered, and the
boys expect to be on the field nextSun-
day in their new glad rags. The ball
is given for the purpose of helping to
pay the expense of outfitting, and by
attending the public will be aiding a
good cause while enjoying good time.

GIVE THEM A CHANCE.

When one throws glance back to
the days when he was young-and the
oldest were young once-and recalls
the keen longing for the coming of the
4th of July, with its anticipations OF
pleasure, and the exuberant joy of
burning explosives when the great day
at last put in an appearance, he does
not feel like wholly disbarring the
younger generation from indulging in
fire crackers. But boys will be boys,
and when shooting off the little red
cylinders they are happily Indifferent
as to property risks. 1t was ever thus,
and the kid of today is no different in
that respect to the kid of so years ago.
1t would be a hardshipon the efferv.
escent youth to cut him out of the priv
ilege of CHANGING finger, eye or other
member in following the bent of his
inclination and the example set by his
forebears, yet considering how easily
fire could be started at this season of
the year cracker shooting should be
restricted to some locality where the
danger to property will be reduced to
a minimum. The time may come when
the American boy will not care to ex
hibit his patriotism through the me-
dium of explosives, but that will be SO
far in the future that untold millions
of property will in the meantime be
sacrificed to the spirit of the 4th, un-
timely deaths will make large contri.
buttons to cemeteries, and hundreds &c
through life MANNED one way and
another.

Pacific coast, and an old resident of
this county. Years ago he lived at
Ruby, going from that place to Loom

ago, locating in Idaho. Three or four
years ago he moved to Republic, where
he now resides. There are few men
who have a wider circle of acquain-
tances in Washington and Idaho than
Dick Price. He served several terms

HOW TO SHAMPOO.

A specialist who had had success
with treating falling hair has novel
ideas on shampoos that are easily
adopted by the birl who washes her
own hair.
Make a strong Iather of soap suds
by putting a cake of pure white soap
quarts. Pour a pint of boiling water
over the soap and shake until a thick
lather is formed, when the soap is re-
moved.
Let the mixture cool to blood heat, or
and rub it in with the tips Of the
fingers.
When the scalp is well cleansed pour
the rest of hot mixture over the long
hair, washing it gently down from the
roots toward the ends.
Rinse with warm water, using a
bath spray, and keep it up until no
soap suds remain, and spray scalp, es-
pecially at sides of head and at nape of
neck.
Have several smooth towels. made
very hot. and dry the hair with them.
When nearly finished separate hair in
to strands, thread with finger or comb
to- remove tang1es. then draw fingers
from scalp to ends of hair until it is
dry soft and fluffy
This specialist dose not believes in
cold water rinsing, which most hair
dressers feel will prevent cold. The hot
water gives more of gloss and pre-
vents harshness. She also avoids comb
ing the hair when wet or pulling it
when drying.

WOULD PROTECT THE PASSEN
GER PIGEONS.

The American Psychologists union
of New York city has started a cam
paign to discover any colonies of the
passenger pigeons in this country and
offers $4,000 in prizes for the discov-
cry of any living birds of this variety,
which III their. migratory flights a
century ago used to darken the sky,
but none of which has been seen for
thirty years. The person who finds the
first nest. subject to confirmation by
the committee and leaves it and the
birds unn1olested, will stand to receive
not less than $1,100 reward. Leaflets
have been prepared giving nesting
habits and description; and a large,
finely colored picture showing the
male. female and young of the pas
senger pigeon. These will be sent to
any address, together with a complete
list OF the rewards to date and what
to do to get them. for 6 cents in
stamps TO defray postage and clerical
work. address Charles K. Reed

The pigeons. if found, are not to be
disturbed in any way. No one con-

stool pigeon was used for decoy.
The largest nunb Der recorded at one

netting occurred in all the states from
Massa chusetts to Wisconsin. From
one of the Michigan nestings several
OF birds were killed and ship

barreled and sent to New York and
Boston markets and often sent abroad
The METERS got from 9 to 6 cents
piece for them. Each man strove to
Guido his neighbor in the number of
birds taken, and consequently none
of them got much out of the miserable
enterprise, but they did almost wipe
out one of the most abundant species
of birds

DINNER COATS.

Dinner and bridge coats are develop

silk in ponfpadour effects on a white
or pale colored ground.
These IRE worn with any trained
skirt of net, lace, silk, satin or velvet
SO long as the colorings of the two
garments do not clash.
Many women use them altogether as
home evening costumes, as they are
less negiigee than tea gowns, as well
as less costly. and also serve to pro
long the usefulness of any extra skirts
that may be on hand.
1t is thus that many women utilize
various ball dresses of past seasons
and thus save money for the utility

for the extra evening wrap of en-
broidered velvet or satin, which she
imagines she needs.
