Local Parties Buy Fine Stallion.

The fine Belgian stallion, which
mas been on display for the past
couple weeks at the Cottonwood N
Darn, was sold by Davis & Co.
ol Fullman, to a company of
local farmers late last week.
Inc horse is an elegant animal of
tne Belgian draft breed and
weighs 2l5O pounds. He is FIVE
years old and is as perfect an
animal of the kind as has ever
been seen here. The purchasers
were Frank Forsmann, W. S.
Craig, We're Pennecard and r. F
robertson and the price paid was
$4,000. 90
The owners have formed a
stock company to be known as
the Cottonwood Belgian Horse
Company and will keep the hor sc
at the Cottonwood barn for the
balance of the season.
With such horses as the above,
and several others of as fine
strain in the Percheron stock in
this vicinity, there is reason for
Camas Prairie horses command
ing top prices in the city mark

W. w. Blackburn returned
Wednesday evening from q trip
to Cloverland and to Spokane
and states that crops on the prai-
RE look much better than any he
saw while away. This section is
certainly hard to beat when it
comes to producing banner crops
of grain.
Mr.. and Mr.. L. A.. Bruner
came up Monday from Asotin
and will visit here with relatives
and friends until after the
Fourth. Mr.. Bruner is we'll
pleased with the crop conditions
here and says that the fall wheat
on his place looks fully as good
as the field that yielded SO bush
els per acre two years ago while
the barley looks better than a
piece that yielded over so bushels
a few years since. The barley
is fall sown and is already COM
to turn color a little and
will be ready to head a couple
weeks before the other grain
ripens.
Ben Tackle gave a big barn
in his new barn at his
place just south of town last
evening. The entire upper floor
Of the barn, which is a huge
structure, was covered with a
nice floor and the entire space
was utilized by the dancers.
Dancing begun early and con-
tinued until after one o'clock. a
nice repast being served before
Fully two hundred
persons were present and all
seemed to be having the time of
their life. Many hope that the
dance may be repeated before
Mr.. Tacke fills the barn with hay
next month.

RIG BALES-JONES
SALE is OVER
live Stock and Machinery Sold
Fairly Well but Most of Real
Estate was Withdrawn and

A. Grangeville dispatch dated

A Grangeville dispatch dated
June 21 says:
The big auction sale of the
Bales-Jones pany was
brought to a close this evening
with the home ranch of 100
acres remaining unsold but with
the understanding that the same
was on the market for private
sale up to Saturday evening and
that negotiations could be taken
I'D with the members of the
company or with w. H. Ralph,
auctioneer in charge of the sale.
The total receipts of the sale,
excluding a ranch near Nezperce,
which was sold at private sale,
are about $50, 900 and the men,
bers of the firm are we'll satisfied.
Horses and mules sold at high
prices, yearling m u | e 8
bringing an average price of
$3.50. Hogs were sold at prices
ranging from $13.25 to 500 each
while milk cows brought from
$40 to $50 each. The sale today
was attended by about 1000 peo-
pie and active bidding was in
dulged in on every proffer.
1t is generally believed the
home ranch will be sold at pri-
vate sale by Saturday night as it
is known a number of persons
are negotiating for the same and
it was because of this prospect
that the land was withdrawn
from the auction. This ranch is
one of the best improved on
Camas prairie, a handsome new
residence having been erected
last year at a cost of $4,000,
while the other buildings and
facilities represent an expendi-
ture of approximately $4,000.
The Edwards ranch of 48O
acres, located east of Cottonwood
about seven miles, was sold Mon
day. Joseph Leischner purchas-
ed the best quarter section for
SO4'25 an acre. This land is un-
improved but all under cultiya-
tlon' The other quarters were
purchased by P. H. Sanger, a
real estate dealer of Nezperce

SCHULTZ GETS
INDIAN LAND
F'les on Hundred Acre Tract north
OF ureencreek Valued at 1000
---WesthOff, who Discovered
the Claim. will Contest.

On the opening of the land of.
flce yesterday morning, a Incur
OF considerable proportions ap
peared to have been formed fol
the purpose of offering filing fol-
lOO acres in section 6, township
32' north range 2, east, formerly
the Indian allotment of one Cath.
crime, a Nez Perce allottee. The
land is located five miles south OF
Nezperce.
On April 16 of this year, the
local land Office received notice
OF cancellation of this allotment
and noted the same on the rec
ords of the Office. By the act of
April %, 1904, the land became
subject to settlement and entry
after sixty days from date of
cancellation. This date was con-
strued by the register and re-
ceiver to be sixty days after the
cancellation had been noted on
the records of the local land of
fee.
William l. Long, who made
settlement on the place some
weeks ago, under advice of coun-
sci, contends that the period of
sixty days elapsed on the sixtieth
day subsequent to the date of
the secretary's order cancelling
the allotment, at which time
Long offered his filing, the same
being rejected. Long took an
appeal and returned to the place,
put a portion of it under cultiva-
ton and continued to reside on it
until he left two days ago for the
purpose of again offering his
filing.
Another claimant to the land
is Barney Westhoff, through
whose efforts it appears the dis
covery of a double allotment to
the Indian, Catherine, was made
leading toits cancellation. West
hoff has lived on the place with
his family for over a year. Much
to his surprise upon returning
home one night not long ago, he
found that his household goods
had been removed from his house
and that VIM. l. Long was occu-
pying it. On protest Long with
drew, however, and built another
house for his use.
These two parties and many
more, including Joseph A.
Schultz, were on hand at 9 O'Clock
yesterday morning and offered
their filings. All were received
for consideration and it appear
ing that Schultz was the only
party who alleged settlement at
a time when the land was held
open for entry, to-wit, at IL a. !
M, June 16, his filing was al
lowed.
Investigation revealed that an
act of settlement was effected by |
Schultz by the posting of his no
tice of settlement on the claim
at IL a. m., followed by other
acts of stalking out his house.
He then left by automobile, driv-
en- by Eugene Gasser, for Lewis
ton, reaching the Office before
nine O'Clock.
Mr.. Schultz is a resident of
Lewiston and was formerly en-
gagged in the banking business at
Nezperce. The land is said to
be worth, with crop, $4,000.
Fridays Tribune.
Westhoff has employed Atty.
Tannahill, of Lewiston, to con-
test Schultz's entry and has
hopes of being able to defeat him
and get the land. AS Barney is
the one who dug up the evidence
eading to the restoration of the
and to entry his friends here
,hink he is rightfully entitled to
he land and hope he succeeds in
securing it. II

Issue Is Settled.

A Grangeville special to the
Sunday Tribune says:
The prosecutions of L. C.
Tamblyn, manager of the Impe.
rial hotel, were brought to close
today when County Attorney ].
M. Gilmore dismissed the last
two ca e s filed against Mr..
Tamblyn, and the latter paid
fines and costs aggregating $3.50,
representing the fines and costs
assessed on the first two actions
filed.
The turn in events is not ex-
planned but when the fourth case
was called this morning at ten
O'Clock, County Attorney ]. M.
Gilmore asked for a continuance
until 2 O'Clock and when the case
was again taken up the agree
ment above had been reached
between the attorneys. Appeals
to the district court had been
filed in the two cases where fines
were assessed and these appeals
were dismissed today upon mo-
ton of Attorney Wallace N.
Scales, attorney for the defend
ant.
The town was in a turmoil of
agitation and excitement as the
result of the cases and the ad-
justment of the matter has been
welcomed. 7 h 9 proceedings
taken today close all phases of
the litigation, and the city has
again been restored to it's normal
condition of peace and harmony.

The Jenny team from north of
town went to Keuterville Sunday
and crossed bats with the team
at that place, winning the game
by a score of 13 to 10. The
game was close from start to
finish and it took full nine in
nings to decide which team would
prove victorious. A small jangle
over a decision in the sixth in
ming was the only thing that
marred the pleasure of the game.
This gives each team one game,
Keuterville having won the first
game by a score of 8 to 8, and
the tie will be played off here
Sunday after the regular game
is played.

BASE BALL DOPE.

The Reubens ball team lost out
in its game with GrangevilIe
Sunday by a score of A to /.
Just how it happened is not fully
explained but it is said by some
who attended the game that sew
eral of the Reubehs players must
have gone up against the county
seat ginger ale too frequently
and were not able to play their
usual good game. At any rate,
Grangeville won and is now feel
ing like a flight of rockets and
ready to tackle anything in base
ball uniform. They will probably
play a return game with Reubens
at some date in the near future.

The game played Sunday at
Ferdinand between the team at
that place and the local bunch
resulted in a victory for the lat
ter by the close score of IL to IL.
The home team had the best of
the game until the ninth inning
when~a bunch of errors allowed
Ferdinand to tie the score, but
they won out in the tenth by a
single run. AT the end of the
eighth the score stood ii to 5 in
Cottonwood's favor. The local
team was weakened by the alb
sence of a couple players which
accounts in part for the high
score. The Ferdinand boys
put up a hard game, however,
and the locals have nothing but
praise for the way they were
treated while there.

FREE CONCERT GIVEN BY THE
ROYAL HUNGARIAN ORCHEs-
IRA.

Through the generosity of the Ma
rietta Rifles, the people of Marietta
were treated Sunday Afternoon at the
ArmOry to one of the finest musical
concerts ever given in Marietta.
The Royal Hungarian Orchestra
which was booked as one of the at
fractions of the Lyceum Course, and
which was to have appeared Saturday
night, was prevented from filling the
engagement on account of a wreck
on the Western & Atlantic Railroad.
This information did not reach Capt.
Morris until about $3.50 Saturday
night, after a large audience had as
sembled in the Armory Immediately
upon receipt of the information, he in
formed the audience, stating that
it was a source of great regret to the
Rifles, but the failure of the Orches-
ira to appear would not count against
the season tickets; that return date
would be played, or another attraction
substituted later in the season, so
those who are holding season tickets
have not lost, but have gained by the
inability of the Orchestra to appear
on time, as they will have the privi-
lege Of witnessing eight attractions,
instead of seven.
The Armory was rendered to the
Orchestra Sunday afternoon with the
understanding that they would give
a free concert, and that if they should
take up a collection that none of the
proceeds would be given the Ri
fes. The collection amounted to
about enough to defray the hotel bill.
Rev. ]. S. Bryan, of the Methodist
Church, opened the concert with pray
er.
There were probably 500 people in
the Armory during the concert, and
every one spoke in the highest terms
Of the performance.
The next attraction of the Lyceum
Course viii be the Toronto Male Quar-
tett, which appears on the night of
March 81 A few double, transferable
season tickets to the six remaining
numbers are still unsold, and can be
bought for SO.
SO far the boys are about even, hav-
ing sold enough tickets to meet the
guarantee.
The citizens generally appreciate
the generosity of the Orchestra and
the Rifles, and it is to be hoped that
others will buy tickets and help the
boys.

BARLOW AND WILSON
MINISTRIES COMING
Will Be at the Armorv on
Evening of Monday,
18th.

Barlow and Wilson's Minstrels will
appear at the Armory on the evening
OF Monday, March IA.
The company is receiving high
praise from the press.
The Raleigh News and Observer
says of the performance in that city
In December:
The Barlow & Wilson Minstrels
were at the Academy of Music last
night, and the performance given was
one that brought applause from the
audience.
In the first part there was music
with melody to it, the vocalists rem
derlng some very attractive numbers,
the comedians looking diligently after
the fun end of the performance. Some
of the songs made a hit with the au-
dlence. The take off on Cook and
Perry was very clever.
In the second part there were fea-
ture acts, in which Juggling was pre-
scented, Fred Robb in a fun skit, the
international comedy quartette, songs
and buck dancing, musical comedies
and other specialties, going to make
up performance that was applauded
time and again.
The Wilmington, n. c., Morning
Star, of January 10, 1910, says:

a Collectors Barqain.

Lord Spencer of Althorp, one OK the
greatest of book collectors, was at
home only i'll his own field. One day
in browsing about Bond street, Lon
don, he went into the shop OF a dealer
in bgic-a-brac. The dealer, who knew
him by sight said persuasiyely:
Here is a fine bit of pottery which
your lordship really ought to have,
and YOU shall have it very cheap-only
2 guineas."
SO Lord Spencer bought it and took
it home and set it in a high place.
One day a connoisseur Of china paid
him a visit, and Lord Spencer showed
his bargain
"What did you give for it?' asked
the counoisseur.
"Two guineas," answered Spencer
rather proudly.
0Hmr' said the connOisseur. AT
that price the marmalade should have
been included

is nothing more or less than shil-
ling marmalade pot with green this

The Tail of a Fish.

A fsh's tail is it's wings. Owing to
the machinery of muscle set along its
spine and to its cleaving form a trout
or salmon can dart through the water
at a tremendous pace, though its rap
id fights, unlike the birds, are not
long ones. 1t is soon tired. The water
is not so friendly to fight as the air.
The stroke of the fish's tail is one of
great power, and by means of it and
the writhing, snakelike feXion of the
body a high speed is reached. The
strength behind this speed is shown in
the way a fish or sea mammal out of
the water will raise its tail and strike
the ground or boat.
