George Rossiter arrived in the city
Friday night from his home at Tekoe

Rossiter, who is lying at his home in
serious condition from the injuries
received while hauling wood last week.
With the husband dangerously sick
and the son away in the National
Guard at Boise, Mrs Rossiter has been
having to assume heavy responsible
ties, which should be relieved by some
one Mr.. Rossiter is said to be some
better at this time.
Sam Rossiter arrived home Sunday
might from Boise, having been allowed
a brief furlough to come home and see
his father Steve Rossiter, who sus-
tanned serious injuries by being thrown
from the wagon and dragged last week
while hauling wood from the noun
tains Under the conditions of the
furough Sam is required to report
back at the Boise barracks by Jan. Z,
and he pays the expenses of the trip
most generous act on the part of the
military authorities.
Senator Elect N b. Pettibone was
in town Wednesday night and took
, this mornings train for Lewiston,
where he, with Representative Huss

; W. ID. Perkins, who was in this sec
ton last week from his home at Clarks-
ton, returned to the Snake river city
} Sunday. Mr.. Perkins was out at the
ranch several days with his brother
O. b. Perkins, and was in mixing
among his Grangevile friends Satur-
day before starting back. Mr.. Perkins
thinks there is no section that out
classes Camas Prairie, and his views
are i'll full accord with all who having
lived here go forth seeking u more
favored abiding place.
Ed. Abramson was out last Sunday
with his finely constructed coasting
bobs with the patent steering gear, TAX
ing advantage of the splendid covering
of well packed snow for long distance
glide. The VonBerg hill on east Main
street was i'll superb condition, and
with the big glider well loaded the run
was made down to near the postoffice
building. There is no finer sport than
coasting when good judgment and reas-
enable care are exercised. The young
sters and some of the married folks
took hand in the sport.
According to the Spokesman Review
of last Friday, l.. Nj. Harris, Jr., has
taken unto himself better half the
full particulars of which have not yet
been given out for home consumption.
However, it is understood that the
marriage took place at Missoula, Mont,
and the brides parents live at La
Crosse, Wash. The young couple are
expected to reach Grangeville the last
, of this week when we will be able prob
, ably to learn more about the case. In
the meantime here is wishing good
luck.
Bert Decker returned home last Sat
urday from the Lewiston stock show
that is, Bert went to the stock show
along with the big bunch from the
prairie, and there was taken sick and
went into the hands of the medical re-
ceiver for repairs. DIR. Foster took him
over To Charleston, where after some
thing of siege, he came through in
fairly good condition, and is now ready
to take another turn at the wheel of
: fortune. Mrs. Decker, who was with
him for a time, came home to look
after things when she had reason to
think Bert was getting along all right.
: Mr.. and Mrs. J. b. Snyder arrived
, in the city Monday night of this week

1 and had an enjoyable time. Mr.. Snyd-
err, who was a member of the Snyder
X Miller firm, widely known manufac-
) turers of saddles and harness at this
place, left here last summer on account
OF his health. He says he has cover
ed good many points since leaving
t here, but has met up with nothing
l that appeals to him as strongly as
Grangeyille, and with his improved
l health he expects to once more take
up residence with us, should his pres

? and Mrs. Snyder received a warm
and wh0le-hearted welcome at the
