Return From California

]. w. Organ and wife, who left
Kendrick five months ago for Calf
ornia, returned Sunday evening.
They were glad to get back to the
good old Potlatch" as Mr.. Organ
called it. He says that in all their
travels through the western states
that they found nothing that was
any where near as good as the Pot
latch country and that they were
glad to get back where there was a
good country. He states that the
California country is booming. but
for good investments and place to
live and make money is here, rather
than in that country. Monday they
went out to their home place on the
lower Potlatch.

Band Concert Sunday

Next Sunday afternoon at the
hour of Q o'clock, weather permit
ting, the band boys will appear up
on the streets of Kendrick to give
their first concert. 1t is desired
that as many as possible attend this
concert so as to encourage the boys
in the effort they are putting forth
for a strong and permanent organi-
zation. In the very near future the
boys are planning to give some kind
of home talent entertainment for the
purpose of securing funds to pnr-
chase new uniforms. This is the
proper thing to do and we are sure
it will meet with the approval of all
our citizens and receive the hearty
support the movement deserves.

Good Place to Buy Goods

The fact that this town is good
place to trade and that the people
can buy their wants in this town as
cheap as any place was demonstrat-
ed this week when party came up
from Lewiston and purchased a
large rug of the local dealer, saying
that they saved money by coming
here. Another person purchased
other articles in town this week and
got them for less money than they
could by sending away for them.
Besides the money is left in. the
community where it will be used in
all probability by the same people.
The fact is the goods are here and
at the right prices. Trade with the
local people.

Unexpected Baptism

Saturday evening Fred Mielke,
Rev. Finke, Fred Gehre and H.
Blum returned from Lewiston.
They were compelled to walk from
Juliaetta on account of the railroad
bridge being washed out. They ar
aived in Kendrick all right and
shortly started to walk to Cameron
where they reside, When they got
to the Wancher gulch bridge the
water was running high and a plank
was laid from the bridge to the steps
of the old Gambler building, former
ly used as the old brewery. The
old steps had not had any one on
them in so long that they were sur
prised and gave way allowing the
men to take bath in the cold icy
water. No one was hurt, only their
feelings and clothes.

HIGH WATER CAUSES
TROUBLE FOR R. R.

Saturday evening the trains of
this division of the Northern Pacific
were compelled to stop at Kendrick
and make this the end of the divi-
sion tor few days on account of
the washing out of the railroad
bridge over the middle Potlatch a
short distance this side of Juliaetta
and the bridge over the Little Pot
latch just below Juliaetta. The
rains of Saturday and Sunday start
ed the snow melting on the ridges
and the Potlatch was for three days
a fast and furious stream. The
small streams emptying into the riv-
er brought it up to within about
three feet of the top of the banks at
the east end of town. The wagon
road up the Brady gulch was wash
ed out Saturday. All the bridges
were taken out except one and it is
in bad condition. The lower end of
the road just below MIR. Brocke's
house is all covered with rock and
wood and where the road turns off
to Juliaetta is one large mass of
rocks and drift mixed with wood
and limbs of trees. The traffic on
this road is stopped for the present.
The road from the Potlatch down
the Wancher gulch is some what
dana sed but it is possible to get
over it. A few of the people living
in the west end of town near the
ball diamond moved out Saturday
evening thinking the water was going
to raise higher. The ball grounds
were practically covered with water,
in fact it looked more like young
river than a ball park. Several
people who were passengers on the
trains bound for the lower country
were compelled to lay over at this
point until Tuesday afternoon, with
the exception of one man who said
he had never stopped when he
started any place and he was not
going to allow any hotel to make a
cent off of him, so he took a hike
down the track and it is supposed
he is going yet.

]. P|ERPONT MORGAN
PASSES away IN ITALY

Rome, Mar. 31.--J. Pierpont
Morgan died at the Grand Hotel at
12:O5 clock this afternoon. The
announcement of the death was
withheld, however, from the news
paper men until private cables had
been sent to the Morgan banking
houses in London and New York.
The end of the great financier
was peaceful, and at the last he was
unconscious. He had simply vast
ed away into death because his
body was incapable of nourishing
itself. He had been partially un-
conscious since Wednesday.
When the great banker arrived
here from Naples he was brought
to Rome in special train pale,
emaciated and weak. Since his ar
rival in this city four nurses and
half a dozen noted European spe-
cialists have been in constant atten-
dance upon him.
On Easter Sunday he was strick-
en- with indigestion. He weakened
rapidly and his death was due to his
inability to obtain nourishment.
The physicians were unable to in
-duce him to eat because of lack of
functional vitality in the nerve cen
tiers which, through the refusal of
the muscles to act made it impos-
sible for him to swallow. He was
fed from that time by injection.
The financier might have been
said to have had no illness and he
certainly suffered no pain.
Mr.. Morgan was born in Hart
ford, Conn.,, April II, 1887, and
educated in the English High
school of Boston and at the Univer-
-Slty OF Gotongen.
In 1865 Mr.. Morgan was married
to Frances Louise Tracy of New
York. A son, ]. Pierpont, Jr., or
Jack aged about 40, and a
daughter, Mrs. Satterlee, survive.
Jack" Morgan has inherited his
fathers love for work and for black
cigars and has been carefully trained
for over 20 years for the succession
to the dead magnate's position. At
no time during that period has the
banking house been without either
the father or son in the city of New
York at direct head of its affairs.
