Neighbors of Sam Floaten, the
Great Northern trackwalker who
was recently killed by a passing
train, suspecting that the man
might have met with foul play,
last week asked Sheriff Remer to
investigate the matter, their sus-
picions having been aroused by the
fact that the man was known to
have had between SIS and $40 on
him before he was killed and only
a few cents in his pockets when
found. Several men had been with
the body before the coroner removed
it to this place, and while the sher-
iff was satisfied the dead man S
pockets had been rihed, yet he
could not fasten the guilt on any
one. There is no doubt, however.
that Floaten was struck and killed
by a train.

MUCH GOOD ROAD WORK DONE
Forest Service, in Cooperation With
County, Is Improving Highways

In a statement issued recently
Forest Supervisor Fitzwater reports
that the county and forest service
have expended SO 498 ON the Addie-
Eastport road, which resulted in
greatly improving that highway.
A balance of IS, 900 is on hand for
use on the road from Addie to
Meadow Creek, distance of about
10 miles. 1t is expected that work
on this stretch will be begun next
month, BY connecting this road
to Meadow Creek, there will be a
through road from Ronners Ferry
to the Canadian line, and travellers
will not then have to go into
Montana to get into Canada,
The county meets the forest
service half way in all road work
and Supervisor Fitzwater reports
that the service has asked the
commissioners for $500 for the
road from Meadow Creek to
Bonners Ferry, which, if granted,
will make $4,000 available. This
will be sufficient to improve the
worst parts of the road. Arequest
for $25OO for the Addie-Copeland
road has been made, which will
give SIS, 900 for that work. Super
visor Fitzwater states that next to
the Moyie road, this is the most
needed improvement north of Bon
ners Ferry. No survey has been
made of this road and it is not
known how far the $4,000 will
go.
A road will also be built from
Whiskey Rock to Falls Creek, in
the southern part of the county
thus giving the settlers road from
Whiskey Rock to port on Lake
Pend d Oreille. A road will alsc
be built from Lakeview via Cedar
Creek to Whiskey Rock, thu
making a land route clear aloni
the east side of the lake.

night, the army" began to arrive

BOY SCOUTS
ROUT MEXICANS
Youthful Soldiers Meet With Hard
Luck In Attempt to Fire
Home made Cannon
WERE NO SERIOUS INJURIES
Gunner Teddy Kent and His Assistant
Burned by Powder

Major Walkers Boy Scouts met,
in bloody battle, a band of Mexi-
cans Wednesday afternoon near the
fort on the brow of the hill facing
Main street. TIE Mexicans were
all killed or wounded and while
there were no fatalities on the Boy
Scouts side a number of the soldiers
are nursing very painful wounds
which were not inflicted by the
enemy but which resulted from
faulty material used in the making
of the guns and cannon with which
the fort was equipped.
The Boy Scout fort was recently
built by dozen or so of ten and
twelve-year-old lads, of dirt-flled
sacks and stray bits of lumber
The fort is, or was, defended by a
single cannon which was made
from a piece of gas pipe. Teddy
K ent was the gunner and Wednes-
day afternoon the homemade can
non was loaded with rocks and
powder and Teddy proceeded to rout
the ranks of the Mexicans with a
shot from the cannon. The powder
was ignited through crack in the
gas pipe. There was a tremendous
explosion. Bits of cannon flew in
many directions and a dozen or so
faithful and courageous defenders
of the Stars and Stripes were scut-
tied to all points of the compass.
Gunner Teddy and his assistant
will wear the marks of the fray for
days to come for Teddy" spent
several painful hours in DIR. Fry's
Office having particles of powder
removed from his face and arms
while the assistant nursed an ear
which was nearly torn off.
J Later when the yalient and
wounded Teddy" returned home,
to the anxious inquiries of fond
mother he replied that the spots or
his face were due to chickenpox
t wherelpon he was locked in a room
to await diagnosis by physician
, This was too tame an occupation
. for the fearless one so he planned
: an escape from durance vile by an
, other application of powder to the
wounded face, this time from hi
sisters powder puff. At last &C
: counts he had escaped from prison
t Now the Boy Scouts seriously
contemplate abandoning all furthei
maneuvers against the Mexican,
until they can make a thorough
test of their cannons. Pension:
will be applied for by the young
] soldiers who were in Wednesday.

MINSTREL SHOW
PLEASES MANY
Baseball Benefit Performance by Local
Talent Calls Forth Loud Applause
From Large Audience
MUCH MUSIC, GRACEFUL DANCING
Evening of Fun and Laughter Nets
Athletic Association Goodly Profit

The minstrel show given Satur-
day night by local talent as bene-
fit for the Ronners Athletic Associa-
ton was an enjoyable success,
pleasing the goodly sized audience
in attendance. The curtain was
rung up with the minstrel men on
the stage, with Irving Bush and
Douglas Palmer filling the END"
positions as cello ed gen leinen,"
with Dean Norton as interlocutor
and with seven of Boomers Ferry's
handsomest and most musical
young men acting as chorus.
Then for half an hour there were
Jokes galore, very creditable solos
by F. A. Johnson and @. E.
Leader, and some very pleasing
chorus work by the others, The
two end men amused the audience
with snappy jokes, Palmer pulling
off some rather clever vaudeville
work.
The Japanese chorus, led by
Miss Mildred Moran, assisted by
Misses Eva Boileau, Faye Kent,
Edna Alberts and Stella Stoos, was
catchy, Japanesy and pleasing.
The Red Rose chorus, led by c.
w. King and Miss OFT, and assisted
by a chorus of four couples with
the ladies dressed to represent red
roses, was pretty and unique
musical number, while Miss Eva
Boileau and her chorus of FIVE
young ladies depicted Happy
Little Country Girls" in song and
dance in a saucy and characteristic
manner.
The Society dance led by Misses
Wolfe, Kent and Sullivan, and the
Skirt dance by Misses Boileau and
Moran drew forth rounded applause
from the house, while Bert Gay
and Mrs. G. w. King in a very
graceful manner portrayed to those
present how the naughty, naughty
tango Is danced. Miss Kent, Mrs,
Elliott, Messrs. Gray and Leader
danced very prettily-in costume
the French minuet, showing how
the young people of We olden tyne
might haye liyened up that very
proper" dance with slight in
lection of the present-day tango.
The solo by c. w. King and the
duet Sympathy" by Miss 0tt
and Mr.. King, were two pleasing
numbers of the evenings program
]. E. Carlson and Mrs. Mabe
Elliott in the sketch, Their FRS
Quarrel" cleverly portrayed how
pewlyweds often quarrel, sigh
cry and makeup, all over a silly
bit of nothing.
Mrs. Nellie M. Jens, of Sand
point, under whose direction tn,
entertainment was produced, CAV,
several really very clever number
in her representations and talka
logues. Her impersonations of tn
youngster happy with the mump
and of the female rooter at base
ball game were especially laugh
able, all the more creditable whei
it is known that Mrs. Jens wa
working under the handicap of
bad cold.
Misses Mildred Moran and MAJ
garet Wolfe added much to th
evenings success with their pleas
Ing work as accompanies.
The large audience was yer
liberal with its applause and nearl
every number had to respond to a
encore. The total receipts wei

heavy, but S73 went into the trea
