Freak Weather in May

The weather report for the
month of May, as recorded at
the Monastery west of town,
shows some surprises even for
this off year. T h e maximum
temperature for the month was
SO degrees on the 3rd and the
minimum % degrees on the 7th,
a variation of 46 degrees in four
days. The total precipitation for
the month was 2.77 inches while
the snowfall reached the startling
figure Of 1872 inches. Of this
amount 16 inches fell between the
9Th and 18th of the month. This
is surely some record for the
month of May and its equal has
not been seen here in many
years.

Exercises Pleased Greatly

Standing room was at premium
at the commencement exercises
held by the high school gradu-
ating class at the Odd Fellow hall
last Friday evening and the ex-
ercises were the best ever held
here. The hall was tastefully
decorated for the occasion, with
the class colors, purple and gold,
and potted plants and flowers
were used in profusion. The
parts taken by the members of
the graduating class were well
presented, while the speech of
County Superintendent J. J..
Staley held the close attention of
the large audience for an hour
and a half. He spoke along the|
lines of the need of better school
advantages in the rural districtsI
and compared at length the city
and country schools, showing
how greatly the former had been
developed and how little atten-
tion has been paid to the needs
of the latter. M. NJ. Belknap
presented the diplomas to the
graduates after a neat speech,
after which the exercises were
concluded.
A-short time before the COM
mencement exercises a five
course luncheon was served at the
Phoenix hotel by Mr.. and Mrs.
Joseph Mcdonald to the gradu-
ates, school faculty and Prof.
Staley.

EACH TOWN
WON A GAME
GrangevilIe and Cottonwood
InduIged in Alphonse and
CASTOR Exchange of Cour-
teSieS.

Cottonwood an d Grangeville
indulged in an interchange of
courtesies during the past week,
the home team winning the ball
game from the county seat lads
Sunday afternoon and Grange
vile returning the compliment
with interest at that place on
Decoration Day.
Sundays game started out
rather slow and dragged along
until the ninth inning when the
score was tied and the winning
run was not put across the plate
until the last half of the eleventh
inning. Cottonwood started the
scoring in the first inning when
George Lange circled the bases.
The visitors went out in one-two-
three order until the fourth
inning, when they annexed a
score. Cottonwood scored again
in their half and t h e visitors
came back with three runs in the
fifth, neither team being able to
score again until the ninth, when
the home guard annexed two
more runs and tied the score, the
bases being full when the last
man was retired. Maugg circled
the bases again in the eleventh
and the game was brought to a
close.

and hit the first three batters
and walked the fourth, thereby

Prettyman Captured

Ray Prettyman who made the
sensational escape from the Off
GERS on Friday evening, May the
IL, was taken by Deputy Sheriffs
Eller and Shaw, assisted by spe-
cial deputies, Lee Carpenter and
John Baldwin, the latter being
the one who first ran on to the
fugitive. Friends and relatives
of Prettyman had caused the story
to be circulated that he had
been furnished a horse and made
his getaway. This story being
often repeated, with many vari-
ations, caused the officers to feel
sure that he was close at hand
and that he was receiving help
from his friends. The search
was put onto a systematic basis
on Friday morning and the larger
patches # brush were gon e
through thoroughly without find
ing any trace. The search Sat-
urday morning was taken up with
the idea that Prettyman was close
to his base of supplies as no trace
of his travelling could be found.
The plan of search was to have
Deputy Shaw occupy a bald point
with Lee Carpenter, on the
opposite hill. In this way moth
ing could move without being
seen. The search had not pro-
ceeded far when John Baldwin,
in company with deputy Bill
Eller, ran on to their quarry
peacefully snoozing in a nest so
skilfully hidden that it was nee
essary to get right onto him be-
fore he was seen. The plan
worked perfectly for VIII e n
Prettyman moved, Shaw saw him
and called to Eller that he was
there before Eller, who was only
about 10 feet from Prettyman,
could see him. The prisoner was
taken Immediately to Grange
vile after dinner.
The capture was very crafty
ing to the sheriff's Office as a
great many people persisted in
insinuating that Sheriff Yates
connived at the escape and as
this was the only break which
has occurred during Mr.. Yates
term of office, which by the way
has been the most successful ir
the suppression of crime of any
which Idaho County has ever had
the vigorous manner in which
the chase was followed showed
clearly that when the people
thought that Lafe Yates wa
. conniving at crime, they simpl!
had another thought coming

game he had ever pitched, the
latter did well in holding down
the score as low as he did, and, but
for several costly errors, it might
have been less than half the to-
tai finally chalked up on the score
board.
When t h e smoke o f battle
finally rolled away it was found
that the county seat boys had an
nexed II scores while the locals
were securing 6.

by innings and summary is as
follows.
