Safe Blowers
Work at PIummeF

The grocery store of w. II. Roe
at Plummer was broken into
some time between the hour of
closing Monday night and when
the proprietor came to opn up the
next morning and the safe was
blown open. From all appear
.ances il seems that two men were
engaged i'm the work. They gained
IAN entrance into the building by
breaking open the front door.
They appeared to have went about
their work very coolly, first OPEN
ing the back door to provide a
means of escape if they were mo-
Tested.
Mr.. Roe had a rifle hanging on
the wall, which they took down
pumped a cartridge into it and
laid it on the counter to have it
ready in case they were intcr-
fered with while at work. The
only thing in the safe was about
five dollars worth of pennies and
some papers. The robbers took
the pennies but left the papers
unmolestcd.
So far as could be discovered,
nothing in the store was taken or
disturbed with the exception of a
few crackers and a small amount
of cheese. Apickaxe was used
in breaking open the door. This
they secured from the school
house, which was opened with a
lpass-key.

Let Contract
For DykinS
ONE THOUSAND ACRES IN PROJ
Two And One-EiaIf Miles OF Dyke To Be Built
Work To Be Done This Fall

The settlers residing along the
river from Cosmos Landing to
Mission Point were in the city
Tuesday to receive bids from the
contractors for building a dyke
along the river between those two
points. Two bids were received,
one from Carscallen Bros. Of
Occur d'Alene and the other from
Cheatham & Co., the parties who
huilt the Meadowhurst dyke, op-
posite the city After going over
the bids carefully the settlers
found that of Carscallen Bros. to
be the lower and the contract was
awarded to them.
There is about two and half
miles Of dyke to be built. It
will extend from the high ground
below the ditch leading out Of
Hells Gulch along the ditch to
the st. Joe river, then along the
river bank to Mission Point and
then from the river back to the
high ground.
In addition to building the dyke
the contract includes the digging
Of the main bitches, one of which
will run from the east end of the
project to Goose Heaven lake and
another from the west end of the
project to the same lake. An
other ditch will run from the
lake to a point on the river bank
opposite RamsdeIs station where
a pumping plant will be put in.
There are about a thousand
acres in the tract which will be
reclaimed. The expense of do
ing the work will be about six
teen thousand dollars, or a little
more than sixteen dollars an acre,
A large part of the land embraced
in the project is of but very little
value under the present cOndi-
tions but with the water kept of
it will be excellent land capable
Of growing all kinds of crops. II
is expected that the work Of dyk-
, ing will start next week and will
be completed this fall so as to be
in condition to keep back the
overflow of the river next spring

one of the hardest bouts ever seen
in the northwest.
The Ellensburg Record says;
" Bordsem made an instantaneous
hit with the crowd and he well
earned it by his wonderful speed
and marvellous cleverness. This
statement was made in connection
with his match there with Davis
court, on whom he secured a fall
and who only beat him after over
a n hour Of steady effort. Bord-
fsem is after the worlds cham
pionship and the match tonight
should be we'll worth seeing.
Berg arrived here last night
and stated that he is in first
class condition, having just re-
turned from California where he
won several matches. He stated
that Bordsem in one of the best
men he has met and he antici-
.pates a hard fought match from
start to finish. Berg has been
trying unsuccessfully for the
past six weeks to get a match
from Pat Connolly of Butte, who
has been touted as a coming
champion. Connolly, however,
seems to have much respect for
Berg's ability as he refuses to
be drawn onto the mat with him,

DR.. o. d. Platt was summoned
and went TO the scene of The ac-
cident at once. When he ar
rived Mariski's head and face
were so badly swollen that he
could do nothing except dress his
wounds. He was unconscious
and breathing with difficulty. It
had been at least an hour and a
half after the accident before he
was discovered and the shock and
|cOld had so weakened him that
the doctor was afraid to go into
an extended eXarrination to as
certain the extent of his injuries.
A hypodermic injection was given
him to stimulate his vitality and
hot water bottles were used to re-
store his natural heat. The doc
tor believes that his skull has
been fractured and an operation
will be necessary to remove the
pressure of the skull from the
brain but it has been impossible
to perform the operation up to
this morning.
Mariski is married and resides
on a homestead near Benewah

cident his wife was notified and
she is now at his bedside. He is
still at Mr. Zieglitz's residence
being too low to be moved to tn,
