Help Your Game Warden.

Sportsmen should not lose
sight Of the fact that their future
sport depends upon the proper
protection of the game. The
game warden has a difficult job
before him and is entitled to and
needs the aid and cooperation OF
all true sportsmen. The man who
breaks the game laws is robbine
his brother sportsman who obeys
the rules and regulations laid
down by law.
The violator does not deserve
any sympathy. Lend the officer
in charge your assistance in his
efforts to bring them to justice.

munity than it has been the Gus

Roy Boles Held for Grand Lar.
+. ceny.

+ Roy A. Boles, whose home is
east of Kamiah and who is more
or less known throughout the
prairie section as a farm laborer,
was arrested in Kamiah Tuesday
by Sheriff Jas. Smith on war
rant charging him with grand
larceny and brought to this city
and lodged in Jail.
Boles was hailed before Pro
bate Judge Ellis this morning
and, waving preliminary exam
ination, he was placed under a
$2500 bond to appear for trial
in the district court, failing to
give which he was returned to
the custody of the sheriff.
1t is planned to have his case
come to trial during the present
term of district court here, if pos
sible, in which event it will be set
for some time next week.
The specific crime with which
he is charged is the breaking into
a house in northeast Nezperce,
belonging to Jas. Long, and tax.
ing therefrom several articles Of
furniture.

Bills Up For Increasing Size o.
Lewis County.

Among the several bills intro
duced of interest to north Idaho
were the following: Two by
Jarnagin, the first an enabling
act for the transfer of a portion
of Idaho county to Lewis county,
and the second an enabling act
for the transfer of a portion OF
Clearwater county to Lewis
county.
The foregoing is from a Boise
dispatch in Tuesdays -Spokes-
man-Review, and refers to bills
introduced Monday in the Idaho
legislature by Representative
Jarnagin of this county for the
annexation of a portion of Idaho
county, known as the Ferdinand
section, to Lewis county, and the
annexation of portion of Clear
water county, known as the Gil
bert district, to Lewis county.
Petitions had been duly circulat-
ed in the two districts desiring
to become a part OF our rich COM
'monwealth and they were each
literally signed by the residents
of those districts. These peti-
tions ask the legislative body to
pass an act enabling the electors
of the said districts to vote at the
next general election ON the ques-
ton Of leaving their parent coun-
ties and becoming parts of Lewis
county.
Later news from the seat of
government indicates that both
measures have received the
stamp Of disapproval by the COM
mittee Of the house having them
i'll charge.

In the best basket bali game OF
the season, played at the local
gym, Nezperce lost her last home
game to the inyincible Culdesac
squad. 1t was nobody's game un-
til the time whistle blew and
then the Culdesac boys, by hav-
ing good luck shooting fouls,
were only three points ahead.
During the first half the Gull
desac team, working to the limit
of their endurance, managed to
come out at the long end Of a 10
to 5 score. Our boys were exceed
ingly unlucky in shooting both
fouls and field baskets, and al
though they out-played their op-
ponents in team work and allow
ed them to make only one field
goal during the last half. they
were unable to catch this lead
and came out dragging the tail
end of the score.
The teams were very equally
matched and it is believed, that
had the home boys had any luck
shooting at all, the score at the
finish would have been decidedly
different.
After the game the visiting
team and the local high school
students were invited up to the
Odd Fellows Hall where they
were highly entertained b.
good program and a real feed.
Speeches were given by the cap
tain and coach of each team in
which was displayed the friend
ship that exists between these
two teams.
1t is no disgrace to lose a game
like this, especially to such a
good bunch of sports as the Cul-
desac boys. when all chances are
about equal and with that little
sprinkling of fight on both sides
that ayouses the enthusiasm to
the breaking point. Nezperce de-
voutly resolves that she will
take on and defeat all comers at
the Lewiston Tournament which
will be pulled off about March l.

DR.. j. w. Akin Writes.

Grand Prairie, Alta, Jan. 3U,
Nezperce Herald,
Nezperce, Idaho.
Dear Conger: At the request
of many of my friends / am writ
ing this letter for your paper.
Since leaving Idaho / have
travelled over great deal OF
country and / like the Peace Riv-
er country as whole and Grand
Prairie the best of that.
The country is quite level; a
good portion Of it brushy, but
quite easy to clear. The sod is
sure hard to break, and land is
cheap here, selling from $4,000 to
$4,000 per quarter. Crops were
good here this year, only the
price was very low ON oats, but
is better now-about $110 per
hundred, and wheat always was
good price.
Stock raising, principally cat
tie, is quite an industry here as
the summer pasture cannot be ex-
celled anywhere. and / have seen
more fat cattle here than [ ever
saw in my life and they winter
out. except what shelter they get
in the brush, and as feed is very
plentiful they winter fine.
Everyone who writes wonders
if we are freezing to death.
Well, so far, it has been very
fine winter. We had one cold
day two weeks ago today, As be-
low, and, believe me, still as it
was you needed plenty of clothes
to keep warm. [ was out part of
the day and when it is that cold
you can't drive much out of a
walk, as the horses bleed from
the lungs. Most Of the winter has
been mild; only about a foot of
snow.
This is real hunters para
disc. Moose, deer, bear, and gray
wolves are quite plentiful, while
geebe, ducks, prairie chickens,
partridges and spruce hens are
so plentiful its child's play to
get them.
Yes, we are glad we came; yet
Mrs. Akin and j both would like
to see many Of our Idaho friends,
but as we can't, we can hear from
them. We are all well and hap
py. Very truly yours,
DIR. j. w. Akin and Family.

basket ball teams (the big uns)
will conduct a heated argument
at the local gym Wednesday
night, Feb. is. There's lots to
expect in this game, and it will
all be there. The home boys have
not lost a try with the several
husky punches they've met and
they are not calculating on los
ing this, but Winchester is dop-
ing it out differently.
Let's show the tall pine boys
we like to see them play, anyway,
and all be there.

Pioneer and Leader In Prairie
Development, succumbed
Monday TO Heart Dis
ease.-Funeral Sun
day.

olhdpS CnlS prairie mas known
no more striking personality
than James S. Marker, who pass
ed into the mysteries of the great
beyond at the family home in
Charleston about 10 o clock last
Monday night. Though Mr..
Marker had suffered from heart
trouble for the past three years
ana came very near the end
about a year ago, he had been
ABOUT his affairs as usual of late
and no particular indication was
given OF the approaching end un-
TIL few moments before it came.
His four sons and two daugh-
ters who reside in this city and
vicinity We're notified and left
Tor Charleston yesterday morning,
where the funeral will be held
under the direction of the Mason
ic Lodge at 2:30 p. M, Sunday.
James s. Marker was born in
Indiana and would have been IA
years old on the 10Th of next
Aps-i. He grew to manhood and
married the woman of his choice
in his old home state and to this
union three children were born.
His wife died, and later he came
west to seek his fortune. lie To-
Gated in the Palouse country and
there cn June is, 1889, married
Miss Laura Dean. After going
through the panic of 1893 and
the drowning out" suffered by
the Palouse country in that year,
they, like many of their neigh
bors, sought a new country in
which to start all .over again.
They came to this prairie and
took a homestead when the res
ervation was opened in 1895, To-
eating a mile southwest of Nez-
perce. Here they reared fam
lily of ten children and through
their % years residence in this
community they had prominent
part in the development of the
country. Mr.. Marker was man
of strong convictions, forceful
character and untiring energy,
and was a leader in the various
movements for the betteEment of.
prairie farm conditions as well as
much assistance in the
upbuilding of Nezperce, to which
town he was ever loyal. He was
of the rugged pioneer type and
gave up his old home and the
things he had helped develop re-
luctantly when some three years
ago failing health compelled a
eesse tion of his heavier labors
AZ lie moved with his family to
Charleston.
Surviving him are his wife and
ten of their eleven children
Percy, Lloyd, Dewey, Edward,
and James (another son, Spur
geon, having died in irfancy)
and Mrs. Lewis Clark, Mrs. Dal-
las Clark, Mrs. Clare Cliff and
Miss Beulah and Viola. His three
sons by his first marriage also
survive, and they are expected
from the east to attend the fun
eral.
The deceased was a member in
good standing of the Masonic
and Eastern Star lodges, and
during his active years had been
3 member of the Grange and the
Farmers Union. Like most of us,
he was not faultless, but he was
q man withal and ever strove for
better things and for the upbuild-
ing of the world about him.
