BUY FERDINAND STORE.

Messrs. Arnold and Wilkins OF
Grangeville were in town Tuesday of
this week looking over the }. A. Bus
hue stock of merchandise with the view
of purchasing The gentlemen return
ed to Grangeville in the evening with
Mr.. and Mrs. Bushue who will inspect
some farm property that is proposed to
turn in on the deal and if satisfactory
a trade will probably be made some
time in the near future as Mr.. Arnold
and wilkins we're well pleased with the
condition of the store and the business
heino done. Mr.. Bushue desires to re-
fire from the business owing to his
health and will probably seek an out
door life for a time. Mr.. Bushue has
ALWAYS enjoyed a splendid business and
we venture the assertion that no store
in the county has done greater volume
of business considering the size of the
stock carried.
Later--Mr. Bushue returned from
Granee,llle this morning ant informs
MS that he has disposed OF his stock ol
merchandise to Messrs. Arnold and Viii
kins taking fine 240 acre farm north
east of Grangeville and that the new
owners will soon take charge OF thu
husiness here.-Ferdinand Enterprise.

MARKET REPORTS OF THE WEEK.

Receipts for the week at the North
Portland stock yards: Cattle 1404,
calves Is, hogs 449S, sheep 3l73.
Cattle liquidation has been extremely
light during the last six days, due to
the coming Pacific International Live
stock Show. Demand for prime heavy
steers is very strong; prices are gener.
ally 30 to so cents higher than they
were a week ago. Best grade steers
are selling from 500 to $500 and
medium grades at 800 to $3.50. The
butcher cattle division shared in the
advance of beef prices to a limited ex.
tent. Supply was limited and quality
not of the best. A few cows at $3.50
heifers at $6.75, bulls at $3.50 and stays
at $3.50 are few top sales in this
division.
The hog market is probably 5 to lC
cents stronger, prime light stuff selling
at $500 in bulk, and few choice loads
at $s.05 and $50. Liquidation was
about % to 30 per cent less than for the
previous six days. Outlet for good
hogs is broad.
Sheep house condition showed very
little change. There is a good sale pre-
| valent for fat mutton and lambs, but
buyers seem to be shading bids on the
poor grades. Fancy yearlings at $500
and lambs at $3.50 were the extreme
sales. Choice selling ewes are not of
fering. Most of the sales average from
$3.50 to 1885.

LIVESTOCK MEN PROMINENT.
Idaho County Exhibitors in Limelight
at Lewiston's Great Show.

Some idea of the prominent part
played by Idaho county stockmen and
Idaho county livestock at the Lewiston
livestock show last week may be gained
from the following clippings from the
newspaper account Of the annual
windup' banquet held last Thursday
night:
"E. S. Sweet of Grangeville was rec.
ognized by the chairman, and said he
desired to give expression to the deep
appreciation by the association Of one
of the citizens of Lewiston; for his
kindness, his courtesy in a business
way. ~ REFER he said "to Mr.. w
j. Jordan, of the Northern Pacific rail
road.'
| "Mr. Sweet then briefly referred tc
the modest start of the Northwest Live
stock association in the city of Grange
kville and to the fact that the friendship
which was displayed by Grangevillt
citizens then was still firm, and he, or
his part, desired to exemplify his
friendship by contributing $500 of hi
prize check of $500 to the association
for it's premium list of 1914. This start
ed the ball rolling, and scene of re
markable character ensued.

FriarS Break All HiStriOnic
Records With "Virginia Rose"
Exceptional Talent Shown.

OF the production by The Friars only
the most flattering comment should be
employed. First of all it must be said
that city like Grangeville is meal
cuably fortunate to possess among her
citizenry such unusual histrionic talent
as displayed by The Friars in this
play. That such is realized and ap-
preciated by the town and country peo-
pie alike is attested by the great num-
ber of admissions sold. Another attest
is the universal favorable comment of
the production heard on all sides.
Cast in the name part of Virginia
Rose Miss Ruth Branscombe achieved
distant triumph by her thoroughly
capable and pleasing rendition of a
most exacting part, role that many
professionals would hesitate to attempt,
yet Miss Branseombe was equal to
every demand and played through each
succeeding scene with skill unlocked
for even by her most ardent admirers
and critics. The part is one OF great
scope, calling alternately for exception
al talent in powerful, stirring scenes
and again for delieaey of touch and
sympathic Interpretation, all of which
this clever young lady gave subtle
reading. Mrs. Adah Losh Rose, as the
old colored .mammy,' had dramatic
part. with one scene in particular, far
out of the ordinary. She gave the role
perfect presentation and drew well
deserved round of applause in the one
big scene allotted to the character.

NESS AS CHIEF OF DEPART.
MENT-MEADER PRESIDENT.
GRAND BALLON FEBRUARY 20
Committee Appointed to Take Charge
of Event With Orders to Make It
Best in City's History.

One of the most enthusiastic meet
ings in the history of Grangeville 3
fire department was held Wednesday
evening at the Sasenbery store when
the annual election of officers was had
and considerable amount Of business
of a routine nature transacted.
The election of officers resulted as
follows:
F. H. Meader president, William
Wykoff vice president, Don G. Fisher
secretary, A. M. Baker treasurer, D. H.
Sasenbery chief and Chester Arnold as
sistant chief.
Included in the list of offices are
some Of the most proficient volunteer
fire fighters the town has ever known,
men who have proved by their efforts
at conflagrations in the past that they
know how to cope with fires and who
are thoroughly competent to handle the
important work entrusted to them. The
department has never been in better
hands than right at present.
Have Tiremen's Ball.
The members of the fire department
discussed pro and con the idea of ar.
ranging for the annual Firemen' 5 ball
and decided to hold the event next year
on the evening of February 20, 1914.
1t is the plan to give big dance and
supper after the same plan that has

years. A committee to arrange for the
ball was appointed as follows: Ches-
ter Arnold, Mark Robinson, James

PRESENT STRONG PLAY TO BIG
CROWD AND MAKE UNIVERSAL
HIT-PARTICIPAN IN CAST
ALI. SCORE

The Friars delighted one of the larg-
est audiences that ever greeted a home
talent production at the |. o. 0. +. hall
last Friday evening when Virginia
Rose, stirring and impressive drama
of the modern type, was given fault
less presentation.
OF the play itself comment is un-
necessary. The identical theme was
treated identically in one of the great
New York successes only few years
back and since then one of the most
widely known emotional actresses has
The Friars announced that the play
.Virginia Rose,' would be departure
from the line of productions SO common
with home talent casts in the past.
And such "Virginia Rose proved to
be. 1t presents powerful, appealing
theme exquisitely expressed. 1t is in
every sense truly modern play chisel-
ed to meet the whims, to arouse the in
terest, to entertain and instruct a
twentieth century people. One may
not always agree with what one reads
in great drama or great literature
but few persons there are who heard
and saw "Virginia Roseo as given by
The Friars but who were moved by
the dramatic merit of the bill and
touched throughout by its many strong
and appealing scenes.
