New sterIIlzlna Agent.

German scientists have found that
glycerin is a valuable sterilizing
agent. Various deadly germs, when
heated in 1t to temperature Of 24S
degrees Fahrenheit. were completely
killed in one minute. This process is
particularly valuable for sterilizing
surgical instruments. for the reason
that the metal is not attacked nor is
the temper affected. Rubber tubes
can be sterilized IN 1t, and. instead Of
being injured, the elasticity of those
which have become brittle is restored
by the treatment.

slogan In the interests OF
homes and towns beauti-
full since Allen w. Clark, a st. Louis
publisher, organized the National
Clean Up and Paint Up" campaign
bureau in May, 1912. Mr.. Clark, for
many years identified with the Ameri-
can paint trade, sought to arouse and
organize into a single national move
ment the "clean up" spirit which stirs
each spring in every normal man and
woman and nearly every thriving COM
munity.
The first year something like 1000
towns and cities conducted local clean
up and paint up campaigns based on
plans suggested by the national bu-
reau. This number has increased each
year until in 1916 approximately 5000
local campaigns were organized. Each
Of these took the form Of real civic
movement.

]. A. Collar
Is Badly Hurt.
He HAS THREE RIBS FRACTURED
Injuries Received By Being Thrown from Sleigh
When Horses Run Away

j. A. Collar met with a serious
accident Wednesday evening
when his team ran away on Main
street. He was driving by the
Community Christmas tree which
is still standing in front Of the
Benewah club when the horses
became frightened at something
about the tree and started to run.
The sled struck against one Of
the blocks used in building the
tree and Mr.. Collar was thrown
out striking on his side on the
curb and breaking three ribs.
The horses continued to run
down Main street until they
reached the Midway Hotel where
they turned up Second street.
Five of Mr.. Collars children
were in the sleigh when the run
away occurred. The oldest boy
rolled out of the sled into the
snow and was uninjured. The
oldest girl held two younger
ones and clung to the sleigh and
the remaining child, a boy about
i2 years old, finally succeeded in
getting hold of one of the reins
and turned the team into the bank
and stopped them, but not until
they had run nearly up Capitol
Hill.
The runaway occurred a few
minutes before six o'clock in the
evening and a number Of people
on the street were attracted by
the cries Of the children and at
tempted to stop the horses but
were unsuccessful.
Mr.. Collar has been very un-
fortunate lately. A few weeks
ago his residence a short distance
from the city was destroyed by
fire and he lost the entire con-
tents, even the clothing of his
family and himself. Now comes
this accident and he will be con-
fined to his home for several
weeks with his injuries.

Another trunk filled with liq-
uOr was captured Wednesday
night but the owner is unknown.
The police officers, in endeavor-
ing to put stop to bootlegging
make it a point to scrutinize all
baggage coming in from Montana
and Chief of Police Steele noticed
"a trunk being put Off which he
suspicioned contained liquor.
AS the trunk was not claimed
at the time he took the number
of the check and arranged with
the baggageman that the trunk
should be kept apart from the
other baggage and that he be no.
titled when it was claimed.
Wednesday evening a man met
one of Babbitts draymen on the
street, gave him a check and
asked him to go to the depot and
get trunk and deliver it at the
Red Collar Line dock in time to
go out on the boat Thursday
morning, at the same time pay
ing for the delivery.
When the drayman presented
the check he was informed that
he could not get the trunk. He
explained to Officer Steele how he
came by the check and accom-
panied the officer on trip to
all the pool rooms but failed to
find the man.
About five o'clock Thursday
morning a man called up Bah
bits Office and asked if the
trunk had been delivered at the
dock and was informed that the
drayman could not get it. An
officer was at the dock but failed
to locate his man. When the
trunk was opened it was found to
contain one full case of whiskey
and two quart bottles.

FIFTY GALLONS ARE
Was Captured With BoOtleggeFs.
In County Jail

We have often heard of liquor
running as free as water and it
certainly did at the court house
Wednesday, when the sheriff de-
stroyed the whiskey which had
been captured at various times
during the past few months.
Fifty gallons of whiskey was
poured into the gutter at one
time. Two hundred pint bottles
and one hundred quart bottles
were emptied of their contents
and the bottles carefully pre-
served to be returned to their
owners along with the suit cases,
trunks, or other receptacles in
which the liquor was captured, as
under the law, only the liquor it.
self could be cOnfiscated. This
liquor was the spOils of some
twenty cases which have recently
been brought and in which the
bootleggers have served or are
now serving time for their Of
fenses.
The county jail has far more
inmates now than at any other
time since the county was estab-
lished. The jail is full to over
flowing and it has been found
necessary to make quarters for
some of the inmates in the Sec
ond story of the court house.
At present there are fifteen or
sixteen prisoners confined in the
Jail. OF these all but two are
serving sentences for bootlegging
or are being held awaiting trial
in the district court on the charge
of bootlegging. One of the re-
naming two prisoners is being
held for trial on the charge Of
burglary, alleged to have been
committed at Plummer a short
time ago, and the other is serving
a sentence for gambling.
