Mr.. Smith has been looking after his
interests in the Hump country could

was not far off when the good days Of
years ago would return to Idaho county

vast richness. Mr.. Smith remarked

Officers Have Them Cinched by

Deputy Charles Thompson returned
Wednesday from Salmon City with Joe

stealing and through the efforts of the
sheriff's office and prosecuting attor.
ney, on Thursday the prisoners signed
a confession and will be on their road
to the state 8 prison within several
days, which means the placing in safe
Keeping of two bad men and the saving
of thousand dollars to Idaho county
by the wringing of the confession from
them.
The confessed prisoners broke into
cabin belonging to Hand Brothers, m,n.

August and stole several saddles. bri.
dies and other valuables as well as mak-

An effort was made by Oregon to
secure the men but Idaho county beat
them to It and last week Deputy Thomp-

returned this week with as fine a look

cast your eyes ON. .2
During the trip to Grangevile Deputy
Thompson worked himself into the good
graces of the men and as result they
came through with complete con
fession yesterday, after little sweat
ing on the part of the sheriff, his de-
puties and Prosecutor Griffith. At first
they would not come through with the
true story but after going through q
course OF questions by Deputy Quinlan.
a complete confession was made by
Peck. Moore, who in the mean time had
been kept away from his pal, also
decided to make the best of a bad lob
and readily told his sLosy which cor
roborated the confession.
To try the case would have meant
large bill of expense as it would have
been necessary to bring witnesses from
Montana, Salmon City and the remote
Big Creek section of Idaho county.

of $1,000 and to secure the
confession will mean the saving of con-

MILLION AND HALF BUSHELS OF
BARLEY LAST YEAR.

Estimate of Camas Prairie Crop as
Furnished by Grain
Commission.
From New York We

At last the secret is Out We now
know why Idaho county has returned
to the regulated saloon and turned
down the bootlegger and speakeasy. L,
was not, as commonly believed, due to
change in the morals of the com
munity but rather a commercial desire
that settled the question as some outlet
for the immense barley crop raised and
being raised on Camas Prairie had ia
be found and what can you do. with
barley other than make beer out of il
and what is the use to make beer when
you cannot use it for the purposes
than to flush the sewers9 So, with
barley way up and the acreage increas-
ing, it behooved the keen-eyed finan-
ceers to lay aside the moral side of the
liquor question and get busy.
Camas Prairie has been fast chang
ing from wheat country to one of
barley and last year found us with a
half million more bushels of barley to
dispose of than wheat. Can it be that
in the future the bread basket of the
world, as we playfully call this section,
is to be known as the home of the gold
en- grain that goes to make up the am
ber fluidg
The price paid for barley in the past
encouraged many to devote many acres
to the crop and from figures compiled
by the state grain commission we find
the estimated barley crop of Idaho
county for the year 1911 to be 1,66O,-
O54 bushels. OF wheat we had almost
million bushels and over 5000 tons of
hay.
Below we give figures on the various
crops produced in 1911 from the several
shipping points in the county. These
estimates are based on data secured
from local grain men and are rea-
sonably accurate:

CHARGED WITH SERIOUS CRIME.
Kamiah Young Man Accused of Rapine
Girl of Fourteen Years.

The preliminary hearing of Jess
Kitchen, a young man who is charged
with having committed rape, the victim
being Sylvia Wilson, the fourteen-year
old child of Mrs. M. j. Wilson, also of
Kamah was held before Judge Vine
yard Thursday and resulted in the
Judge diseharging the defendant who
was Immediately re-arrested upon the
same charge and in the preliminary to-
day, held in the court of Judge De-
Haven, he was bound over to the district
court, and released upon his recogniz-
ance.
The alleged crime was committed at
Sites on the night of August Z, at
that time the victim and Hazel An
drews made trip to that town to at
tend dance and spent the night in the
local hotel.
A number of witnesses were present
for both sides and the case pretty well
gone into. The child, who is but four
teen years of age, and small for her age,
told straightforward story and was
positive that Kitchen was the man who
had committed the vile act. However,
the Andrews girl, who occupied the
same room, swore that some man was
in the room but she could not swear it
was the def. ant.
That most yolting crime has been
committed there can be no denying
but who the guilty one is has not been
proven and the people should suspend
judgement until the matter is settled in
the district court. Atty. Griffith con-
ducted vigorous prosecution and
Atty. Scales and lawyer from Kamiah,
made hard fight for their client.

Doubled His Money.

Several years ago Henry Giebink of
Iowa, was prevailed upon to purchase
Camas Prairie land and after investigat-
ing the country secured tract of 800
acres near Denver. Mr.. Giebink did not
take up his residence in idaho but con-
tinued to live in Iowa and leased his
land to local parties. This week through
the agency of L. M. Harris he sold the
place for a sum equal to twice tie
amout he paid only few years past.
The new owners are McHugh Brothsrs,
young men who are throughly alive to
the agricultural opportunities that exist
here.

CHAPTER XIV.
Mahomed Offers Freedom.


Fortune had slept, but only after
hours of watchful terror. The slight
est sound outside the tent sent a
scream into her throat, but she sue
ceeded each time in sitting it. Once
the evil laughter Of hyena came over
her ears, shivering. Alone! She laid
her head upon the wadded saddle-bags
and wept silently, and every sob tore
at her heart. She must keep up the
farce of being brave when she knew
that she wasn't. The men must not
be discouraged. Her department
would characterize theirs; any sign
Of weakness upon her side would cor
respondingly depress them the more.
She prayed to God to give her the
strength to hold out. She was afraid
of Mahomed; she was afraid OF his
grim smile, afraid of his hooking
eyes; she could not sponge out the
scene wherein he had so gratuitousiy
kicked Horace in the side. Horace!
No, she did not believe that she would
ever forgive him for this web which
he had spun and fallen into himself
Two things she must hide for tho
sake Of them all: her fear Of Mahom-
ed and her knowledge Of Ryanne's
trickery.
What part in this tragedy had the
Arab assigned her? Her fingers twined
and untwined. and she rocked and
rocked, bit her lips, lay down, sat up
and rocked again. But for the eX-
haustion, but for the insistent call o.
nature, she would never have closed
her eyes that night
And her mother! What would her
mother believe, after the scene that
had taken place between them? What
could she believe, save that her daugh-
ter had fulfilled her threat, and run
away? And upon this not unreason-
able supposition her mother would
make no attempt to find out what had
become Of her. Perhaps she would
be glad, glad to be rid OF her and her
questions. Alonel Well, she had al
ways been alone.
The only ray Of sunshine in all was
the presence Of Jones. She felt,
subtly, that he would not only stand
between her and Mahomed, but also
between her and Ryanne.
"Hush!" whispered George. Don't
let her see you like this. She mustn't
know"
"You don't understand" replied Ry-
anne miserably.
/ 81 believe I do" Georges heart
was heavy. This man was in love
with her, too.

fort to speak, but this time no sound
issued from his lips. At the end Of
the hou-. he opened his eyes and
smiled. It was more like the grin
George had once seen upon the face
of a boxer who had returned to the
contest after. having been floored half
q dozen times.
(, Can you hear me?" asked George.
Ryanne stared into his face. "Yes,"
thickly. where are WEI"
'In the desert"
(Which one?"
arabian"
Ryanne tried to sit up alone.
Better not try to move. They
banged you up at great rate. Best
thing you can do is to go to sleep.
You'll be all right in the morning"
Ryanne sank back, and George bun
died him up snugly. Poor devil!
Hell pull himself together in the
morning" he said to Fortune. II did
not know that you knew him we'll"
ct have known him for eight or nine
years. He used to visit my uncle at
our villa at Mentone." She smiled.
".You look very odd"
mo odder than I feel" with tnef-
fectual attempt to bring together the
ends Of his collar-band. II must be
a sight. I was in too much Of hurry
to get there. Did you eat the soup
and fish,"
"The soup, yes; but I'm afraid that
it will be some time before I can find
the dried fish palatable. I hope my
courage will not fail me-" she added
the first sign Of anxiety she had
shown. She was very lonely, very
tired, very sad.
It IS quite possible that Mahomed,
coming over, spoiled pretty scene;,
for George had some very bravo
words upon the tip Of his tongue.
Come" said Mahomed to Fortune.
"You will sleep in the little tent No
one will disturb you"
"Good night, Mr.. Jones. Don't wor1
ny; / am not afraid"
George was alone. He produced
one of his precious cigars and lighted
it. Then he drew over his feet one Of
the empty saddle.bags, wrapped his
blanket round him, and sat smoking
and thinking till the heat Of the fire
replenished from time to time, filled
him with a comfortable drowsiness;
and the cigar, still smoking, dropped
from his nerveless fingers, as he lay
back upon the hard clay and slept.
Romance is the greatest thing in tho
world; but for all that, q man must
eat and man must sleep.
The cold dew Of dawn was the tonic
that recalled him from the land Of
grotesQue dreams He sat up and
rubbed his face briskly with his hands,
drying it upon the sleeve Of his coat,
as hasty and as satisfying a toilet as
he had ever made. There was no ac-
tivity in camp; evidently they were
not going to start early. The cook
alone was busy. The fire was crack
ding, the kettle was steaming, and
a pot Of pleasant-smelling coffee
leaned rakishly against the hot
ashes. The flap to Fortunes tent was
still closed. And there was Ryanne,
sitting with his knees drawn up under
his chin, his hands clasped about his
shins, and glowering at no visible
thing.
"Hellol" cried George. Found
yourself, ehT"
Ryanne eyed him without emotion.
