BUILDING BOOM
IS NOW ON
Excavating Under Headway
on Some six Blocks, Others
to Follow Soon.

In addition to the contracts let
to Contractor Jack Turner for
the construction of the w. N.
Scales and A. +. Parker brick
blocks, excavation of which began
Monday, VIM. NonBerg has com
menced eXcavating for a cement
building adjoining the Parker
structure on the west. This build
ing which will have IA full base
ment, will be 25x75 feet, while
the Parker structure is to be
50x75 in dimensions divided into
three front rooms.
The foundation is now complet-
ed on the Crea brick, 25x72 feet,
and the statement is made that
M essrs. Sweet a. Overman will
soon begin work on 50x92 foot
brick adjoining the Crea building
ON the east and Henry Jess will
build on the west of it, partnership
foundation walls having been
built. These buildings are on the
north side of Main street.
On the south side beginning at
the corner opposite the Savings
Il Trust bank, the excavating is
just being completed for two
story brick 50x60 feet, the ground
floor to be divided into one TWEEN
ty and two fifteen foot rooms.
In the same block George Will
kins is grading for a 25x65 foot
cement block, and Mrs. Dora Me
Claim, is to let the contract today
to VIM. Campbell for a 50x75 ce-
ment block along side Of Wilkins.
Mr.. Wells has also made the
statement that he will build
cement block on an adjoining lot.
While there has been some de-
lay in starting, it now looks like
we are to have real building
boom, and it certainly looks good
to see the property owners get
ting busy and hear the hum and
buz of real construction work
float out on the breeze.

it the Pot.
How to Enter the Race.

Each candidate for office, or
some qualified voter in his be
half. shall file nomination pa
per in the proper office, as here
in provided, at least 30 days, and
not more than 90 days, prior

This portion of the law re-
ferring to direct primary election,
applies directly to all candidates
for nomination for state and

officials on or before June y.
The statute provides that the
nominating papers shall be filed
at least 80 days before the prl-
mary election. This election IS
to be held on July 30. and 30 day
prior to that date is juno 30, but
owing to the fact that June 81
falls on Sunday it is evident that
all nominations must be on rec
ord on or before June %. The
aspirants for state and county OF.
f;ces therefore. have a period OF
bnt 9 more days in which to en-
ter officially the race for the
nomination,

GRIZZLY KILLS HUNTER.

Crawling into a thicket to drive
out what was believed to be
small bear, so that his partner
might shoot the bear fairly and
squarely IN the open, John Aus
district of Idaho county, encoun-
district Of Idaoh county, enocun-
tered a huge grizzly face to face
IN close quarters, about 80 miles
up the Middle Fork early this
week, fired one shot. and met
death in the embrace Of the
wounded animal. The great bear
then emerged from the brush to
the open place the two hunters
had selected. and was killed by
Austin s partner.
Exact details of the tragedy
are lacking, the few meager facts
of the encounter being brought
to kooskia by Mr.. Renshaw of
kamiah. II was stated by Major
Fem, over the telephone to the
Signal office Thursday morning
that to the Majors personal
knowledge Austin had been
denizen Of the Middle Fork coun-
try for at least II years. His
body was not badly mutilated, thu
big silver tip attempting to make
off as soon as he felled his hu-
man antagonist Stiles Signal.

death ON Monday evening at 5
o clock on the road near the Wi
ley X. knighten place three miles
northeast Of Grangeville, by a

country taking orders for fruit
trees.
Saturday he came to Grange
vile and after imbibing too free

knighten place where he has been
stopping for several days. Mr..
knighten and Probate Judge De
Haven saw the man fall off his
horse when nearing the ranch, an
assisted HIM to remount, the an

it. and succeeded this time in get
ting ON by himself. AS soon as

run. no doubt made fractions by
the spurs Myers wore, and just

moved him to Mr. knightea S
house. in the meantime telephon-
ing to town for a physician. All
of the doctors being out of town,
they phoned DR.. Stockton who
was at Harpster. But the injured
man was past all medical aid, it
being discovered later that his
neck was dislocated. and he ceas-
ed breathing at 8 O'Clock, with
out having shown any signs OF
life other than the gasping res
nirations. The body was brought
10 town Monday night by Depu-
tv Sheriff Quinlan and Undertake

Ard fare for the round trip has
heeu arranged for, the special re-
nrning to Grangeville and all
0tber points on the Camas Prairie
line Sunday evening after the

body a chance for an outing at
reduced rate, and return them
home so that no time will be lost
from their business.
The regular morning train will
hear the excursionists to Lewiston
Sunday morning, and a special
has been arranged for to bring
them back the same evening, leav-
ing Lewiston at about $50.
This excursion will afford a
pleasant outing for those closely
confined to business during the
week, and will be largely patron

ranged for by local citizens with

Cottonwood Takes Another Game,
On last Sunday at the local ball
park Cottonwood defeated Grange
vile in one of the prettiest exhi-
btions OF the national game given
on the diamond this season, the
locals taking a shut-out to three
scores for the visitors. The game
was clean, snappy and decidedly
on the rapid-fire order, consum-
ing only one hour and twenty
I'VE minutes, the work of the bat
lerleS OF the two teams being of
aeeptional quality.
Boss Brown pitched the first
'hree innings for the home team
making the excellent record of
ave strike-outs without a hit,
and then retiring to the field at
ls own request as much of a puz
Ne to the visitors as at the begin
mg. He was followed by Hol-
snsteln, who did not lower the
Aandard of excellence set by his
