CAPTURE ROBBER
THROUGH HIS GIRL

Sheriff Brown will leave tomorrow
for Buffalo, N. Y, in response to a wire
stating that R. Bradbury, who escaped
from the Latah county jail last June,
had been captured. Bradbury was the
youngest of the quartet that robbed the
post office at Standpoint, and had been
found guilty and sentenced to year
in the Latah county jail
Young Bradbury was engaged to
Miss Flora Hubbard, Standpoint girl,
and when he was sentenced to a term
in the Moscow Jail she came here and
secured employment. The authorities
watched the mail and it was through
her efforts to write to her lover that
Bradbury was located and captured
On February 20 Sheriff Brown will
get another of his escaped prisoners,
Ira Frazier, sentenced to a term in
the Latah county Jail, was found serv-
ing time in the Spokane county Jail,

ing and come prepared, they declare
to hold the honors won. A number
of fine cups were this year given as
premiums, to be won twice by some
exhibitors. Each winner will make an
effort to retain their cups, and this
is expected to arouse unusual interest
in the 1913 show.
Owing to the failure of the secretary
to last year send out the ribbons and
scorings to the various exhibitors the
association found itself this year I'M
der handicap of lot of adverse
public sentiment, and the size of the
show was affected. 1t made it hard
for the association to give a success

ton got gun and went to "get" Page.
He was arrested by Chief of Police Pat
Malone of Bovill.
The defense contends that Beadone
carried the gun, because he was a
night Waterman at the Potlatch camp
No. 8, and that he was seeking to avoid
trouble with Page. Evidence was in
troduced to show that Beadone sought
the company Of the marshal to house
where his daughter was staying, be-
cause he knew Page would be there,
and didn't want trouble. 1t was also
testified, that he went to the house,
saw Page, and didn't start anything.
The case is under ADJUSTMENT by
Judge Cummings.
