Hospital At
St Joe is Robbed
DIAMOND RINGS AND CASH SECURED
Perpetrators Make Escape With Booty. Officers
Looking for Suspects

The ST. Joe hospital was broken
into and robbed Saturday night.
Two diamond rings, one plain
band ring and thirty dollars in
money was secured. There is no
clue to the persons who commit
ed the robbery and all that can be
done is to keep an eye out for the
stolen property and to try and
apprehend the guilty parties by
Chat means.
The officers here and elsewhere
were communicated with and given
a description of the property.
They were also furnished with
the description of two men sus-
pe !ed of having committed the
crime and the local officers ar,
are on the lookout for them.
The description tallies with that

city ON Friday night and who

to Dakota but would probably stop

St MarieS- -TekOaR Road
A Good One
SOON READY FOR TRAVEL TO TEKOA.
Finest Scenic Automobile Road In COunty---LargeI
Crew Still at Work

County Commissioners Downie
and Libby are spending a few
days here looking over the county
roads in this vicinity.
Saturday they made a trip over
the new st. Maries-Tekoa trunk
line road as far as Trenery and
upon invitationa representative of
The Record accompanied them.
This was our first trip over the
road and to say that we were sur
prised is putting it mildly. We
doubt if there is any where i'm the
country a mountain road that will
compare with this.
The grade is an easy one all the
way, the heaviest being i'm The
city near the Townsite Store.
Outside of this there is only one
grade on the whole route that is
up to ten per cent.
IL is one of the most beautiful
scenic roads to be found any
where even in this mountainous
country. For four or five miles
il winds along the side of the
bluffs overlooking the st. Joe
valley with the st Joe river look
like a stream of silver winding
through the green meadows. The
road itself looks like a mere
thread clinging TO the side of
the steep bluff which towers up
on one side so high that the top
cannot be seen from the road
while on the other il drops Off
abruptly into the valley hundreds
of feet below.
The wonder is how the men
kept their footing on the side of
the bluff while making their start
on the road bed.
After passing this bluff the
road goes further back in the
hills through the timber to Ben
wah creek.
Crossing the creek it passes up
along the north side with a
water grade to Treffery where it
oCrnecis with The road to Tekoa.
Between Benwah and Trefery
there is considerable rock won i
especially at the lower end of the
road, which makes it expensive %

County Division
Meeting Tonight

Tonight at the Grand theatre
Will be held the first public boost
er meeting for our proposed new
Benwah county A call has beeh
issued by the members of the ex-
ecutive committee who have the
promotion of county division in
charge and all efforts are being
made to have this the largest
gathering of citizens ever con-
gregated in one place in the his
tory of ST Maries
On account of the news censor
ship of the executive committee
up to this time the public has not
been fully informed of the great
progress that has been made to-
ward the desired end of county
division, with st Maries as the
county seat of the new Benwah
county, but the cOmmitte has now
reached the conclusion that the
time is ripe for an united st
Maries, this including every cit
izen i'm its limits, together with
those in all the territory affected
by the division to be boosters
and the hardest kind of workers
at all times in the interests of
division
Thus the meeting for this
evening has been called for the
purpose of explaining in detail
the work already done and to
place upon each citizen his or her
part in the final work
The county division rally pro-
gram has not been announced
but will include addresses by the
n cmbers of the committee, and
presumably short talks by the
leading citizens, together with a
musical program by the st Mar
les band
Each person in st Maries and
this vicinity should take upon
( himself the duty of not only at
tending this meeting but persuaC
ing every one he meets to do like
wise thus securing the largest
! possible attendance.

green white pine, cdar, red and

1t is claimed by the Clearwater
county people thai the timber
companies will only pay 81 per
thousand for green white pine
and will not make any offers at
all for other species of timber,
while on the other hand the gov
ernment advertised to sell in the
Clearwater forest reserve on Aug.
/, 60O,OOO,OOO feet Of timber and
holds green white pine at $3.50
per thousand and dead white pine
at 50 per thousand. The Clear
water county cruise does not con-
slider the dead white pine but in
cludes this without valuation
The stand of timber on many
OF the forties and quarter sec
tiOns has in a number of instan-
ces been more than doubled by
the Clearwater county cruise
over the returns made by the lum
ber companies in former years,
il is alleged. Clearwater county
officials claim that they are in a
better position to judge the
stand Of timber in their own
county for they have gone to the
expense of cruising it than are
the state officials in Boise who
have never seen the timber and
are far remote from it. They
propose to take Oft their coats and
fight for the maintenance of that
cruise.

WAR DOESN'T HELP
THE POWDER maker
Mexican Revolution Hurts
Business, Col. E. G.
Buckner Says
WANTS TO SEE
PEACE THERE SOON

Colonel Il. G. Buckner, vlce-presi-
dent of the 70. I. DUPONT de Nemours
Powder Company, has expressed the
wish that Mexico would hurry up and
subside into a condition Of peace.
But doesn't the Mexican revolu-
tion help your business, with all the
shooting that is going on?' he was
asked
"That Is where you are wrong"
Colonel Buckner replied. Almost
any busiess is better off under peace
ful conditions. and the powder manu-
featuring business is no exception"
But. your product is being con
sumed."
"Do you know that in times of
peace one miner viii shoot away
more powder than n whole regiment
of soldiers?" asked Colonel Buckner.
"That is true. and the regiment has to
keep lighting pretty well an the time
TO make any showing against the
single miner. AS a matter of fact, It
takes peaceful conditions to make the
manufacture of powder profitable.
Nowadays mines are the biggest con-
sumers of powder.
Until lately The mines OF Mexico
have been quite large consumers Of
our product, but the war down there
has almost destroyed the demand. In
fact. the powder consumed in the
Mexican war amounts to nothing as
compared with what we sold in Mex
leo in times OF peace.
Powder manufacturers are eager for
I peace il only because it is better for
, their business, in spite of the speeches
! which learned congressman have the
! habit of making n Washington, wheu
/ they charge the powder companies with
/ being responsible for war scares. We
are Just as much opposed TO war as
inybody else, for the reason ! have
mentioned
"But tremendous quantity of pow
der would be consumed IN a big naval
battle, would IL not 2"
"Ncs. but the character Of that kind
of powder is such that the manufacturer
ould not take advantage of a demand
for 10 for years TO come, or until he
could make up another reserve. Sup
pose you had n squadron of six Amcri
can battleships of the first class en-
gagged in q battle, all armed with l4-incf
guns.
Each Of those ships would carr,
about 100000 pounds OF powder or
roughly. there would be 5000 0O
pounds IN the squadron Such OF tn
ships as survived an equal contos
with a hostile squadron, presumin
there were losses OF others, would, II
all probability, use up most Of thi
supply. To replace the 5000 90
pounds lost or used would reQuir
six months before the first shin
ment could be made, and to complet
the whole order would take a yea
and half"

in South America, a good portion @
which was devoted to Buenos Ayre'
and there he met the President Of tn

ARREST NEGRO AS
Slayer OF N'KNIFF
Suspect With Wound in
Breast Is Found in
Empty Convent
BELIEVE HE TRIED
TO KILL HIMSELF

PHILADELPHIA. Pa, April To-
Found in bed in the convent of Notre
Dame, at Moylan, which at this season
OF the year is not occupied, a negro
wounded and carrying a revolver Of the
same calibre a. that used in Staying
William ii. McKniff. in Media. Wednes-
day night, was captured this morning
He was taken to the Delaware county
jail, in Media,
The bed clothing was covered with
blood. In the room was found a basin,
in which were ashes and scraps OF
paper which. il is believed, may have
been papers taken from Acknih after
he was shot down.
The wound in the mans breast, the
police believe, was made by one of
the bullets in an attempt at suicide.
They believe the man became terri
fed, or conscience smitten after at
tacking McKniif, and ttied to end his
own life.
John Fox, a plumber, who had been
sent to the convent to make repairs
prior to it's summer occupancy, dis
covered the man. As he was going
through the building he saw the fig
ure Of a man In the bed, with the
clothing drawn up over his head.
As he did so, the man beneath
sprang up and struck at him. For
a minute the men struggled. but,
weakened by loss of blood, the coll
ored man was no equal for Fox He
submitted to be bound and trussed
upon the floor.
AS soon as he had the man firmly
bound Fox telephoned 10 Rufus Turn
er, a Media policeman, who took the
prisoner TO the jail District Attor-
ney John Hannum, Jr., Of Delaware
county, expressed the conviction that
the prisoner, who refused to give his
name, was the man for whom search
has been made since McKniff was
found unconscious near the home OF
his father, a few minutes after the
attack.
Thus far the police have not been
able TO obtain the name OF the pris-
oner. He has refused to talk since
he was overpowered. IL Il should be
proved that he IS the slayer, Fox will
receive the rewards, which now total
$3.50, which have been offered for
the discovery of the murderer.
Mckniif. who was forty-fOur years
old, was attacked by a highwayman at
Washington street and Gayley terrace,
and robbed Of a small sum OF money.
He struggled with his assailant. and
was shot through the eye with a
small bore revolver. His skull was
fractured at the base of the brain.
