All Went Fishing.

The fishing season opened yes
terday with many local nimrods
early afield in quest of the speck-
led beauties. In fact, it was stat
ed by some that Lawyer creek
was so infested by Nezpercers at
an early hour that one almost
had to elbow his way through to
get fishing room on the banks of
the stream. Catches were gener-
ally very limited, however, owing
mainly to the muddy condition
of the water.
Leslie Brown, as usual, came
back with the choicest string,
about fifteen very fair speci-
mems. He also added a rattle
snake to his list of trophies, Or
the musical end of his snakeship,
which included seven rattles and
a button. The reptile was killed
by Mr.. Brown near the head Of
the gorge = just after it had is
sued a gentle warning of its pres
ence to j. d. McCown whose ang
ling efforts it had apparently
been watching, unobserved by
him. Brownie" states that he
took no chances on proving the
genuineness of his snake story,
as against any moonshine theiry,
by bringing the rattles along as
unquestionable evidence of the
tail.

Considerable excitement was
caused among the numerous fish
ermen at the Stevenson crossing
OH Lawyers creek yesterday
morning by the burning Of a
Maxwell car owned by DIR. l.. L.
Crocker, the veterinarian of this
place. The doctor had driven to
the Cottonwood or upper eros
sing and there unloaded Chancey
Wallace and VIM. Fuller and
then drove to the Stevenson eros
sing, from which he was to fish
up stream and meet his two pas
sengers who were fishing down.
Shortly after the doctor had
left his car. parked on the east
side of the creek a quarter of a
mile above the crossing, the fam
lily Of County Auditor Emerson,
eamped on the opposite side Of
the stream and some distance
from and out of sight of the car,
noticed that the doctor had left
what they presumed was a lively
camp fire. The increasing vol
ume of smoke aroused the curios-
ity of the Emersons, and on in
vestigation they discovered the
auto was in flames, which had
gained such headway that in
fiammable parts of the machine
and its contents were practically
consumed before it ould be reach
ed. The word was spread up and
down the creek and Crocker was
after he had joined his
two passengers.
Besides the car, the doctor lost
a sum Of money and checks he
had left in coat in the car, as
did VIM. Fuller. 1t is not known
as yet whether any part of the
loss is covered by insurance, nor
is it known how the fire started.
Every thing was apparently all
right about the car when the doe
tor left it.

Frank j. Stevens died May sc
at the White Hospital in Lewis
ton after a lingering illness OF
over a year. ALI that the best
medical skill and loving hands
could do was futile.
The deceased was born in Vol
ga City, Iowa, Feb. 8, 1868, where
he grew to manhood. After his
parents died he wandered t.
Western Iowa, where he met
and married Mary U. Taylor al
Rock Valley in March, 1898. AT.
ter living six years in South Da-
kota, they moved to Seattle in
1000. The remainder of the years
were spent at Chambers, Wash,
and Nezperce, Idaho, until Dee
ember of last year when they
moved to Lewiston for medical
aid. Since that time Mr.. Stevens
grew gradually worse until the
end. He died of a complication
of liver and kidney diseases and
bronical pneumonia.
He was man of great physical
endurance and nerve power. He
was a kind and loving husband
and father and generous 10 a
fault with his family. upon whom
all his affection centered. He
was a staunch member of the
Woodmen of the World for near
ly % years and the Order was
very dear to him.
Mr.. Stevens leaves to mourn
his loss besides his wife. Lloyd
F. j., Ena Mae Lyford, Ethel Ell
len Stevens, and one sister, Ellen
j. Burgin, of Edgewood. Iowa.
The funeral was held at Vassar
Chapel, Rev. Green of the M. E..
church officiating. The music
was furnished by Mrs. Vonley
Miller. The Woodmen of the
World attended the services in
body. There were many beauti-
full flowers, tributes of love and
respect, from the many friends
and neighbors. Interment took
place in the Normal Hill ceme-
terry.
During the residence of the
family in Nezperce Mr.. and Mrs
Stevens were engaged in the ho-
tel business and later very sue
cessfully operated a cafe, which
for several years was known as
the best place to eat in this sec
ton. During thdir later resi-
dence here most of their time was
occupied in farming southeast OF
town. Their children received
the major part of their education
in the local public schools, the
two elder being graduates of our
high school. The family was
highly esteemed by the people of
this community. and the passing
of the husband and father calls
forth universal sympathy for
those who sustain the great be-
reavement.

The Singles Won.

In the ball game here Monday
afternoon between the single and
married men, the former were
easily the victors, scoring IL runs
against their opponents 3. A
striking feature of the game is
that it lasted through nine in
nings and left a lot of soreness
just physical, however. One of
the players remarked that there
was a moral to the game: If you
want to play ball, remain single.
Of course it was not a married
man who said this.

Nezperce Drubs Reubens Nine.

With a score of % to 2, Neg
perez won her fourth consecu-
tive base bali game and still re-
mains undefeated. Knocking
four pitchers out of the box and
badly shattering the fielders, the
locals started in the first with
three runs and never stopped I'M
TIL the ninth, when, after scoring
twice. they retired.
The Reubens ground was in
very bad shape, which gave
cause for some of the errors and
several eases of lost ball, giving
the locals opportunity to score.
Wild throws and fumbled balls
seemed to be the greatest trouble
of our friends and Nezperce got
very few earned runs.
With a three-base hit by Med
we'd in the 4th and a hit by Mos
er the real scoring commenced
and at least 3 were piled up in
every inning. The usual good
pitching by Henrichs and ready
support of the in and out field
allowed Reubens only one score
in the 3rd and one in the eighth
inning. Schildknecht broke the
record by stealing everv base in
Guiding home in the 7th, when he
slid under the catcher and threw
him over his head, causing him
to drop the ball and himself
reaching home safely.
The score in full follows:
