Music Recital Well Attended.

Miss Edith Wright's music pupils
gave a reel al of their prowess at
the Christian church Monday even
ing, and full house greeted the
young folks and listened attentively
to a program that was pleasing to
the ear. Nearly all of the partici-
pants had more than one number on
the program, and showed remark
able ability in the musical line, es-
pecially considering their youth.
Noteworthy of especial mention was
the rendition of "The Saving of St.
Michael by Miss Virla Wallace.
1t was very evident the audisnce en-
joyed this selection immensely.
Miss Fern Kimball, of Lewiston, also
favored the audience with couple
of selections, anc Robert Wright's
piccolo solo was good, for a beginner.

FAIR AT NEzPERCE
june 23 And "a
Movement Started Saturday for Big
Stock Show and Fair Another
Meeting Next Saturday.

Some thirty business men and far
mers met at the Fraternal hall in
this city last Saturday evening and
set the wheels going for the great
est stock show and industrial fair
ever held in the county, fixing Wed
nesday and Thursday, June 23 and
d as the dates and Nezperce as the
place for the grand event. To in
sure the success of the affair perm
anent organization was started, to be
known as the Lewis County Live
Stock and Industrial Association,
and a committee of FIVE men was ap-
pointed to draft bylaws and report
at meeting to be held in the Fra
ternal hall at 200 p. m. Saturday,
April "a, at which general attend
ance is expected and permanent Off
GERS will be elected for the associ.
alton and final plans be made for the
coming fair and show.
Everybody in this section is inter-
ested in the success of this enter
prise and everybody should be at the
meeting Saturday afternoon
At last Saturdays meeting, follow
ing the election of temporary officers,
the date for the show was discussed
at some length, some favoring a
July date, but the majority holding
out for the earlier time, on the ar
gument that all stock would then be
in prime condition and because of
the advanced season, the farmers
would find it more convenient to par
ticipate in the fair in June than they
would in July this year. The mat
ter of permanent organization and
a name therefor was then literally
considered with the result as above
stated, but all agreed that the oc-
casion should be made one for the
assembling and display Of all indus
trial products of the farm and home
as we'll as for a show of live stock,
and it is accordingly planned to
make each annual event, and espec-
tally the coming one, general coun-
try fair with all the trimmings and
attractions possible.
The officers of this meeting were,
w. P. Conger, chairman, and N. L.
Agrell, secretary, and the committee
appointed to draft bylaws was, DR..

Ramey Hotel Destroyed.

! The Ramey hotel was completely
destroyed by fire at an early hour
Sunday morning and the loss is es.
timated at about $4,000 It is
understood insurance was carried on
the building and its contents. The
| fire was discovered a few minutes
before midnight but at that time the
entire rear of the building was in
flames and the fire spread with such
rapidity that one of the guests on
the second floor was forced to leap
from a window.
Both the Vollmer and Ilo fire de-
partments rendered heroic service in
saving the Scott Mercantile company
and the Idaho livery stables and at
times both of these buildings were in
flames.
The cause of the fire is mystery
but the nature Of the fire leads to the
belief that it was of incendiary origin
The hotel was conducted by Mrs
Klaus and it is understood she had
no insurance on her furnishings
The furniture in the rooms and in
the dining room belonged with the
building but Mrs. Klaus made a con-
siderable investment when she took
charge of the hotel about two months
ago.
The family of Mr.. Dickey, barber
in Vollmer, occupied housekeeping
rooms in the hotel and much os their
effects were saved. The citizens of
both Vollmer and Ito labored with

property and prevent a spread of the

In the preliminary, the state was

the complainant, and Frank Senters,
who was with Harbke at the time of
the shooting. The defendants broth
er, Charles, who also saw the shoot
ing, testified for the defendant.
As told in the Herald last week,
the trouble arose when VIM. Harbke
in company with Frank Sen ers,
called at the Dixon house, about ten
miles north of Nezperce, to make in
quiry about stray horse. Dixon,
with no sppareet provocation, order
ed them off the premises and backed
up the order with four shots from
Winchester. The parties to the case
have been residents of the Russell
section for many years where Dixon
has figured in several contentious.
At the trial yesterday, Mr.. Harbke
stated the case as follows: Il rode up
to his (Dixon's house and knocked.
Mr.. Dixon came to the door and
asked him if he had seen anything of
stray horse. He said no, and told
me to leave, and he threw the door
open and walked across the room and
picked up rifle, and when he got
back to the door he fired the first shot,
and as was going back to my horse
after this shot was fired, l told him not
to shoot, that would leave. Just as
l got my foot in the stirrup he fred a
second shot. Then we rode on to the
road and shut the gate and we were
not more than 80 feet up the road from
the gate when he fred third shot.
We went on up the road about $50
yards and Mr.. Dixon followed on across
the field, probably so yards, and fred
the fourth shot, and we went out Of

ke inquired of me if had. seen any
