Highway Commissioners Met

The commissioners of kendrick
Highway District held very I'M
portant meeting last Saturday and
disposed of large amount of busi-
ness. At nine o'clock in the morn
ing they got together unofficlaIly TO
talk over some of the important
matters which they expected to dis
pose of during the regular meeting
IN the afternoon.
At the usual time they called the
meeting to order and disposed of
the regular routine of listening to
the minutes, allowing bills, etc.
Road overseers for the ensuing
year were appointed as follows:
District No. l, American ridge.
N. Brooke; District No. 2, Big Bear
ridge, N. E. Ware; District No. 3,
Texas ridge, Jack Bailey; District
No. 4. Little Bear ridge, Henry
Emmett.
The schedule of wages was fixed
for labor at 40 cents an hour; road
overseers, SO cents an hour; teams
$500 per day.
Considerable time was spent
discussing the advlsability of pur-
chasing rock crusher for the dis
trict. 1t finally developed that
the sentiment of the Board was un-
animously in favor of a crusher.
1t then renamed to select the type
OF machine and it was finally agl eed
to buy a Champion. An order was
placed with representative of the
Company, Mr.. DAVIS and Mr.. Rowe,
for 10x20 crusher. This machine
has capacity of l8 tons or IL yards
an hour. 1t weighs 1900 pounds
and is mounted on trucks, so that it
9 can easily be transported to any
+ part of the district with the tractor.
, Tne price of the machine was
/ $3492 80 F. O. b. Portland. 1t was
to have been shipped at once, so the
commissioners expect it here within
a few days. The big Yuba tractor
belonging to the district will fur
nish the power tc operate the crush
: er.
t The commissioners have had a
IS number of offers from farmers and
!. others, that if the district would
: grade the roads and crush the rock.
o they would help to have it hauled
: on the roads. With a continuation
e of this cooperative spirit there can
n be considerable permanent road
n building done in the district thi:
spring.
q The commissioners paid $4,000 or
e the tractor which was purchased
IL last summer.
At nine o'clock p. m. the meeting
s adjourned.

Rock Encased Skeleton

Lewiston Tribune Workmen in
the employ of the Houser Construc-
tion company. who are building a
portion OF the Lewis and Clark
highway. recently unearthed a hu-
man skeleton encased within solid
rock. 1t was only after the rock
had been blasted that the skeleton
was located. The find was made
just east of Arrow, near where
many skeletons of Indians have
been uneafthed of late, which IN
dlcates a possible aborigine bury
ing ground at some time in the
past. How the body became en-
cased in the solid rock, however, is
problem which local archaeolo-
glsts have been unable to solve,
though one theory advanced is that
the rock was of soft sandstone when
the burial took place, and has since
har rdened. like concrete, by contact
with the elements.
The natural tomb that enclosed
the skeleton, is just above where
the bones OF an Indian were found
during the year 1898, when grading
was being done for the railroad.
The remains of the Indian, which
were found at the time. according
to Enigneer G. &. Van Arsdol, bore
necklace of about Is to 20 elk S
teeth, as well as one of the very few
medals gwen out by Lewis and
Clark when they blazed their trail
through this section. The grave
also contained a number of copper
implements which were tempered
to very high degree of hardness
The science of making implements
out of copper is not understood tc
have been known to the Indians OF
this section at that time, and have
only been found in the United State
among prehistoric remains. 1t i.
believed that they were obtainel
through the intertribal trading tina
was carried on, from the MeXicans
to the south. or perhaps earllel
from the Aztecs of that country
!. The material found in the grave il
. dicated the occupant had been ;
man of prominence in his tribe
possibly chieftain.
The eIk's teeth, from being il
contact with the copper, were color
! ed an attractive green, and wer
taken by the muckers employed /
! the railroad construction work t
| Lewiston, where they were passe
! over the bars in the saloons to
drinks. 1t was not long, however
e before they were being sold abou
S town at from $25 to $50.
f 1t was in this locality, also, ths
e the fossil remains of a prehistor
animal were found not long ago.

Masons Entertain Ladies

The St. Valentines party given at
the Fraternal Temple last Monday
evening by the Masons Of Kendrick
Lodge No. 26, was a great success.
A crowd numbering about eighty
people attended.
The festivities began about seven
o'clock with a splendid banquet
served by Mr.. and Mrs. N. Brooke
and Mrs. John Brooke. The tables
were decorated profusely with red
and white carnations and were fair
ly groaning under the weight OF the
chicken dinner which the Brockes
so delightfully."- prepared.
After the banquet Barton's
Orchestra of Lewiston rendered
short program which was very
pleasing feature of the evening.
Then followed a picture show, dur
ing the progress of which the
orchestra played. The rest of the
evening was devoted tu dancing.
There were number of the Older
brothers and sisters who still clung
to the more ancient customs OF the
fraternity. They wanted to Square
dance. However, 1t developed
that out of the entire number
assembIed no one knew how to call
the dances. Sheriff Woody came to
the rescue. He said that his
deputy, Mr.. Smumerfield, was a
past master at calling square
dances, so messenger was sent
after Mr.. Summerfield, who was
prevailed upon to desist from still
hunting long enough to preside al
the dance. He knew his lines al
right, and Brother Watson of Troy
had the square dance of his life.
The orchestra was then asked tt
play two-step. They didn't know
just what two-step was but some
body suggested that 1t was sumt
thing like fox trot, as nearly a
he could remember. so they trans
posed fox trot into a very present
able two-step and saved the day
The orchestra didn't have a yer,
, lively time OF it, but they wer
, good sports and played anythln!
that the dancers desired.
The hall was beautifully decorat
ed with a shower OF hearts, suspend
!, ed from the ceiling by threads
, There were five hundred hearts i
. the shower. Other valentine decor
atlons gave very pleasing effect i
the soft red light shed from re
tissue covered globes suspende
from the ceiling.
The record of this party in tn
archives of the lodge will mark thi
as one of the most successful c
n the many like events held in tn
b past by Kendrick Lodge No. 26,
