ATTEMPT TO BREAK
INTO MEAT MARKET

An attempt, which nearly
proved successful, was made
Tuesday evening to break into
the st. Maries meat market.
When the market was opened the
next morning it was discovered
that sometime during the night
an attempt had been made to
break open the back door which
nearly succeeded.
One of the hinges had been
badly bent and the lock had been
loosened. The door was still
holding but a very little more
effort would have been sufficient
to force it open. The door
looked as though a crowbar or
a heavy piece of iron had been
used for pry until it was near
ly forced from the hinges.
1t is unknown at what time the
work was done or what frightened
the would-be robbers away. Two
men were seen running down the
alley at about twelve o'clock and
it is thought it was they who at
tempted the burglary.

Farmers Union
Buys Fair Grounds
ASSOCIATION LETS OPTION
Members OF The Union Take Hold To Keep
County Fair In This City

The Farmers Union local of
st. Maries has purchased the land
where the st. Maries Fair As
sociation has been holding It's
fairs from the st. Maries Land
company. Several years ago the
fair association took a lease on
the land with an option to pur-
chase it and proceeded to erect
the fair buildings.
Stock in the association was
sold and the money used in pay
ing for the buildings but the as
sociation has never paid ex-
penses with its fairs, or at least
has never been able to more than
pay for the buildings and has
paid nothing on the land. The
land company had declared the
lease and option forfeited and
had made arrangements to rent
the land to Harry Gaines.
The Farmers Union has fitted
up the main building for a hall
in which to hold meetings. The
members did not wish to lose
what the Union had put into the
building, neither did they wish to
see the fair given up, so it was
decided to purchase the grounds.
The purchase also includes the
buildings. The Union hopes to
continue the fair here and will
hold one this summer if the peo-
OF the city will cooperate with
them.

SHEEP FOR ST. JOE
FOREST RESERVE

Roscoe Haines, supervisor of
the st. Joe Forest Reserve, re-
turned Wednesday from a trip to
Walla Walla, Washington, where
he attended a meeting of the
Wenaka Wool Growers Associa-
ton. This association includes
all the large sheep owners in
that section, many of whose
.flocks run into the thousands.
The sheep owners there have
fine winter ranges but the sum-
mer range is far too small for the
number of sheep and they have
to ship to other localities for
summer grazing. Mr.. Haine's
purpose in attending the meet
ing was to try and interest the
members in the forest reserves
of north Idaho as a place for
summer grazing for their hocks.
/ The reserves of this section
afford fine opportunities for
summer grazing, although, on
account Of the severe weather and
the deep snow in the woods they
would be of no use for winter
grazing. He succeeded in in
teresting the members to quite
an extent. Two of them, will
several thousand sheep each, pu
in applications for grazing per.
mits for the coming summer an,
several others stated that as sool
as the season would permit the,
would come here and investigat
the conditions.
Mr.. Haines feels very muc
gratified with the success of hi
trip and feels sure that the re-
serves of north Idaho will sou
become a popular place for the
summer grazing of sheep ah'
that this will become an impor'
tant source Of revenue for "
reserve. AS a portion OF lh
money received goes to the stat
this will be of benefit to all.

ty-ilve invited guests were pres
ent. Mrs. Hunts fine home was

SENT TO JAIL FOR
DISoRDERLY CONDUCT

Court Layman, residing just
north of the Benewah Club, was
arrested Wednesday charged with
being drunk and disturbing
the peace. He was taken before
Probate Judge Cromwell, who,
after hearing the evidence in the
case, found him guilty and sem
fenced him to serve sixty days in
the county jail
Layman had secured some al
cohol and drank it,, after which
he attacked his wife. He was
creating a great deal of disturb
ance when arrested and the
judge made his sentence a severe
one.
The officers found a bottle OF
alcohol which had a label on il
showing it had been purchased
for medicinal or mechanical
purposes by George Derry on q
permit issued by Judge Cromwell
Derry was arrested and Prosecut-
ing Attorney Holsclaw filed
charge of drunkenness agains
him to which he plead guilty
Judge Cromwell fined him 5000
and costs.

their hall by the school there.
Three games being necessary to
cover the expenses of the trip, a
game was arranged with the Rose
Lake Athletic Club as a substi-
tute. Kellogg will be played on
Friday night, and Wallace on
Saturday. Those taking the trip
are: Mulroney (captD, Gallagher,
Ennis, Martinsen, Gregory, I'm
derwood, Putnam, and Coach
Hofstetter.
The record of the team so far
has been very good, every game
on the home floor having been
won and only one lost away from
home, the one with the Post Falls
team, which defeated st. Maries
by 3i-t8. The North Central
high school of Spokane declined
Coach Hofstetter's request for
game on the ground that the
school was allowed only a limited
number of games with other
schools.
The Chicago Crescents, an ALL
star team which will pass
through here this week on its an
nual tour, endeavored to secure
game with the local team, but
the date conflicted with the trip
previously scheduled and the
game was declined, whereby st.
Maries fans lost an opportunity
to see some high class basket
ball, since the Crescents feature
Jimmie Marshall, known as the
worlds greatest basketball play
er. The Missoula Athletic club
also wished to play here this week
but the game could not be ar
ranged for the same reason.
Moscow high school, which has
been making strong statements
concerning her team, has been
challeged to a game on either
floor. The score of the basket
ball season thus far is: S. NJ. H. S.
1922; Opponents, i75.
