For the Visitors.

In full view OF the crowd in very
busy street two vendors of berries
were busy with piles of thin wooden
boxes. each scantily filed with imma-
ture fruit. Emptying box after box,
the vendors deftly punched up one
layer Of the box bottom to a sharp
angle pointed in the middle, prOpped
1t there with paper and then refilled
the receptacle, taking great care that
the finest and freshest looking ber-
ri2s should make snowy top covering.
One Of the spectators grew indignant.
"Iow In the world" he demanded

Vacation Friends.

It's strange vacation when one
doesn't find a new comrade. This is
natural enough when every new place,
even every new year In an old place,
brings a different combination Of hu-
manity. It's easy to find comrades, for
everyone is bent on the same errand,
rules are relaxed, and two or three
days of play let you farther into n
fellow human beings heart than a
score of conventional meetings. You
begin to know the man you fish with,
and II the biting is poor, you may
know him pretty well. Even when COM
paniops don't talk much, the thoughts
that come are likely to be spoken from
the inner part of a man that is very
far from the surface In working hours.

Mrs. Harris Has
Thrilling Experience

Mrs. Charles Harris, who has
been visiting her parents here had
rather a thrilling experience on
her trip to join her husband, who
is foreman of a bridge building
crew at Boulder, Montana.
She had her automobile here
with her and planned to ship it to
Missoula, where her husband was
to meet her and drive to Helena.
The car was loaded on a freight
train for shipment. Between
here and MissOula the train was
in a wreck and every car on the
train except the one i'm which the
automobile was left the track.
Mr.. Harris met her at Missoula
as arranged and they started to
drive to Helena. 1t had been
showing and the roads we're in an
extremely bad condition. On the
trip they had to cross a bridge
about forty feet high. While
they were crossing it the car
skidded and the wheels on one
side went off the bridge. They
were driving slowly and the car
was brought to a stop with the
frame suspended on the side of
the bridge and two wheels hang
ing in the air forty feet above the
ground below. The car was
practically balanced and remained
suspended until teams could be
procured to haul it TO a place OF
safety. They trip was continued
and they reached Boulder without
further mishap.

Comparison OF
Annual Statements
LESS IN THIS COUNTY
Only in Few Instances Do KOOtenai County Of
fCiaIS Make Better Showing

ID. T.. Dandy, county auditor of
Kootenai county, has made and
published the annual financial
statement of that county for the
fiscal year of 1916. Asethis is
the first statement since the di-
vision of the county it may prove
interesting to our readers To COM
pare the expenditures of that
county with those of this county.
I'm making the comparison, it
should be remembered that the
expenditures given in the state
ment for Benewah county are
from the time of the division of
the county, or February i5, 1915,
to April 10, 1916, or the end of
the fiscal year, 1915, while the ex-
penditures for Kootenai county
are for the fiscal year only, or
from the second Monday in April,
.I9l5, to the second Monday in
April, 1916.
The total assessed valuation of
Kootenai county i'm 1915 was
O56,I99.O3, as against So
lI46, 84l for Benewah county and
the rates of taxation for state and
county purposes were: Kootenai
county, 1875 mills, Benewah coun-
ty, IA mills, each being a de-
crease from the rate of 16 mills
for 1914, before division.
The total expenditures were
Kootenai county, S549.36O.5t
Benewah county, S2O4.33S.9O, The
latter including all of the eX-
pense incidental to starting th'
new county, or about S8,OOI
for transcribing records, and ap
praisers, $1,000 for court house
and about $4,000 fo record books
totaling approximately $4,000.
The statement shows the ex
penditures of county officers a
follows: Auditor, Kootena
