Buy Your Coal Direct
From Mine-Big Saving

The high cost OF coal is a thing OF
the past! At least. there are no com
plants on this account-since the re-
moval of government restrictions
among those who have learned how to
buy coal. The way to buy coal Is to
get it direct from the mines. This
saves several middlemens profits. It
saves hauling expenses. Anyone can
now buy at mine prices. whether a car
load buyer or one who uses only ten
or fifteen tons year. This has
been made possible through a plan
evolved by a large and ld-estab.
iished concern. THE BERNICE COAL.
COMPANY. with main Offices at l343
Como Building, Chicago.
This company has thousands OF Gus
toners in various sections OF the
United States who receive all of their
coal direct from the mines. These cus-
toners are pleased not only because
of the many dollars they save every
year, but also because OF the quality
OF coal they are getting. Many write
that they never before had coal that
makes so little dust. that burns so
well, leaving so few ashes. II you are

Of events as they happen soon loses

On September /, 1869, almost
exactly ten years after his arrival
in the Colville valley, he was joined
in marriage with Miss Mary Cen
dron, daughter of Alex. and Eliza
Gendron, and Of this union three
children were born, Josephine MRS.
George Seale), Elizabeth (Mrs. Oliv-
er Archer), and Frank Perras, who
is chief of police of Colville; all of
whom were at home when the end
came.
The life of Louis Perras was an
open book. The friends he made re-
mained with him through life. Un-
ostentatious in his demeanor, he was
charitable and Of a kindly heart. The
religious teachings of his parents
remained with him as his rule and
guide through to the end and he was
finally honored with the services of
the Catholic church of which he had
been member from infancy. He
raised and taught his family in the
light of his faith, and left them as a
heritage the example of an honorable
upright and useful career which he
employed earnestly as husband and
parent, citizen and churchman, neigh
bor, and with all, as friend to all
mankind who loved him in the light
of the great Author of his being.
The funeral services were held at
the Catholic church Wednesday
morning, conducted by the Rev. FIR.

Mrs. Daniel H. Carey at the organ.
The palbearers were John Hickey,

The beautiful floral offerings in the
church and those strewn at the
graveside by friends bore mute tes-
timony of the great esteem in which
he was held by the people of his
adopted home where he has lived
and been an active and useful factor
in it's civic development for more
than 60 years. He was member,
and once served as president, of the
pioneer association from which the
pail bearers were chosen who bore
his body to the grave, but not one
of those was present who came as
his companions in the earlier expedi-
tion. They have all answered the final
summons. He was the last Of the
line of pioneers of 1859.

new STRUCTURE
TO REPLACE OLD
EARLE T. GATES BUYS 115 FEET
ON MAIN TO ERECT CEMENT
GARAGE BUILDING
Modern Garage 115x120 to Replace
Two Historic Buildings on North
Main Street

A transaction of considerable in
terest to Colville has been completed
whereby Earle 4. Gates buys Main
street property with frontage of
115 feet and depth of 12O feet,
commencing at the north line of the
Lane building and extending north.
The two-story frame Meyers build
ing and the two-story frame occu-
pied by b.. W. Emery's store are on
this property, and both will be
wrecked. Mr.. Gates will erect a
cement garage on this property next
summer, covering the entire property.
Mr.. and Mrs. G. B. Ide, whose
offices are now in the Meyers build
ing, will move their office to South
Main street. Frank Pollak will
move his tire shop to the first door
south of the Columbia garage. Mr..
Emery will occupy his property this
winter, but will be forced to vacate
in the spring.
The old Meyers opera house has
been sold, separately from the ground
it occupies, to Roy Hanna and L. C.
Melcher, who will begin at once to
raze the structure and move and con-
vert the lumber to construction of
farm buildings on the ranches two
miles southeast of Colville. The
price paid is reported at $500 The
building was erected at the north
east corner of Main and First avenue
by the late l.. w. Meyers in 1886 at
cost of $4,000 and was the largest
single structure north of Spokane for
many years. 1t was without a
basement, two stories, and the build
ers used over 10000 feet of lumber
in it's construction. Several years
ago it was removed to an. adjoining
lot to give place to the Lane block,
and in the settlement of the Meyers
estate the property fell to the own
ership of George E. Meyers who sold
it with the ground it occupies.

thousand Indians were rioting in
widest frenzy about the Fort. At
each port hole in the barricade men
were placed to man the guns in case
the Indians decided to break in. As
fast as one keg of rum or gin was
consumed, allowing reasonable
lapse for little sober thought, an
other cask was rolled out. This cele-
bration among the Indians lasted
several days until they had exhaust
ed themselves in dissipation of this
sort, when they sobered up, called
for their weapons and returned to
their hunting grounds for the balance
of the summer. In day or so we
were provided with provisions and
turned loose on our own resources.
After a few days we were again on
the charity of fate, and lived on
buffalo meat. There is one thing
about buffalo meat, one needs no
salt to relish it, and one gets out of
the habit Of using salt SO much that
it took me year after finishing the
journey to return to salt at my
meals.
"After crossing the Saskatchewan
and approaching the Rocky noun
tains we We're told that the Indians
were hostile in the Frazier river
country, so we turned our course
south, coming through what was
then known as Eagle pass on to the
Columbia. In order tc avoid the
lakes we came down through to
where Bonner's Ferry is. 1t was on
this part Of the trip that we endured
hardships, and for many days we
tramped over mountains where no
white men had ever before set foot.
Some were barefooted, but some of
the more careful ones carried their
shoes or boots in order to have them
for winter.
During the first week of Septem-
ber while in Northern Idaho, we be-
gan to reconnoiter for winter quar-
ters for we knew we would need
some time in preparation before
snow fall, which we believed might
be early in these mountain regions.
About this time we reached the
Pend Oreille river, crossing to Cal
ispel lake, near where the town of
Usk stands. Here we found the first
man of the trip who could talk
French. Frank Pachette mixed
blood, Indian and French, had estab-
lished a trading place and stock
ranch here. He soon realized that
we We're not a profitable horde, but
he was glad to see us, and it was
from him we cleaned great fund
of information about the country. He
furnished us butter, such as it was,
but we enjoyed it. Milk was plenti-
fM on this ranch and we were made
welcome to all we wished. Mr.
Montgomery traded to Pachette a
horse in exchange for COW which
we converted into beef. We were
here told that Fort Colville was less
than 100 miles away and we readily
placed 1t in our itinerary. Crossing
a low divide to where Chewelah now
stands we encountered the road to
