The Colville examiner. [volume] (Colville, Wash.) 1907-1948, 1921-09-24

The avalanche of banditry, bur
glary, holdups and miscellaneous
thievery which has recently been
covering the Spokane country has
caused Colville to sit up and take
notice with the result that Col
yille's police department has evolved
a plan which is believed to be
bandit-proof.
Frank Perras, chief of police, and
William Loudon, special officer, are
now backed by a body of II depu-
tized men equipped with high-power
rifles and 500 rounds of ammunl-
ton. These IL men are not stand
ing around in sight, nor are they
known to any save themselves. IL
is their business to respond to their
alarm call, day or night. fouf
different methods of alarm call
have been arranged, so that prylng
visitors will not likely be able TO
submerge them all.
Among the special deputies are
some seasoned woodsmen who are

TOHOId Free County
TuberCuIOSiSC Clinic

A free county tuberculosis clinic
will be held in Colville next Wed
nesday afternoon and Thursday NOR
ming, September 28 and 20, in charge
of DR.. Frederick Slyfield of Seattle
Of the medical staff of the Wash
ington tuberculosis Association. The
clinic will be under the auspices of
the Stevens County Antituberculosis
League. Plans are being made for
the cooperation of all the physicians
of the county. The educational fea-
lures of the clinic will be a part of
the Stevens County Livestock Asso-
citation fair, which is held Sept.
28-Oct. /.
The clinic is open to every resident
of Stevens county Doctor Slyfeld
is willing to give his entire time
while here to the examination of
cases in question. The study of
tuberculosis has become so great
field for specialism that some ply
sicians are giving their entire time
to the work, and it has been found
that many apparently sound persons
of those examined at these clinics
are detected in the first stage Of
tuberculosis, while many who believe
they are infected are found to be
suffering with other troubles and
with no trace of tuberculosis. Hence
the wish to educate the public as to
the preliminary evidences of this
great plague which is responsible for
one fourth of all illness and one
tenth of all deaths in the United
States.
The purpose of these free clinics
should not be misunderstood. Free
clinics are not for the purpose of
invading the field of local practi-
TONERS, all of whom are perfectly
capable of handling tuberculosis
work But these clinics are for pub
lie education in encouraging sus-
poets to visit their physician, and
demonstrating that an examination
for tuberculosis is not a narrowing
experience, but wise measure of
safety and often of prevention.
Physicians throughout the country
are heartily cooperating with the
state tuberculosis association in
handling the, clinics, realizing the
educational value resulting, and
knowing that they can save many
lives to health and usefulness if the
public will only realize the desir-
ability of giving the physician first
chance at a suspicious case, rather
than giving him the slight chance
of saving an advanced case.

New City Water System in Use

lower reservoir, 81 feet below the
level of the upper one, is i20 feet
square and IL feet deep, and is also
equipped with settling tanks. Either
reservoir can now be disconnected
for cleaning, and should the necessity
arise, both can now be cut out and
water be brought direct to the city
from the source.
The city of Colville owns 40 acres
about the flowing wells and springs
in addition to 10 acres at the upper
reservoir and one acre at the lower
reservoir. Both reservoirs are of
solid concrete, surrounded by squir
rel-tight galvanized wire fences four
feet high.
A $4,000 bond issue was sold at
par this summer for the purpose Of
increasing the city water system
and the improvements thus far total
$4,000. The additional funds will
be used in improving the source Of
water supply.
Acorn and Lynch were the con
tractors for the new work, the price
of the new upper reservoir being
$44OO The pipe line from the up
per reservoir to the lower reservoir
cost $4,000.
City water this week has had
strong creosote smell, due to the
water coming through the new pipe
which is heavily impregnated with
the creosote to prevent rotting of the
wood. Heretofore it has been i'm
possible to clean the reservoirs, and
considerable vegetable matter has
gathered at the bottom, and in the
pipes. This will no longer be the
condition, for regular cleaning of all
parts of the city water system will
hereafter be the vogue.

RICH FIND OF SILVER ORE IN
LOWER WORKINGS GIVES
PROMISE OF WEALTH

Ore averaging $1100 a ton has
been encountered in drift from
the lower tunnel in Old Dominion
mine, northeast of Colville.
Up to the present time four aver
age samples ranging from $3.50
to $1400 a ton have been assayed.
One of the assays ran 15% lead,
$1050 silver, and S3 cents gold.
Another assay ran $16.10 lead,
! $121I.s0 silver and $4.13 gold, -
total of $1232.03. The two remain
ing assays ran $3.50 and $1400. A
crew of men in charge of Al Lynch
has been working on the Old Do
minion mine for the past two years,
cleaning the workings and also cross
cutting in an effort to locate ore
bodies which since the first opening
of the mine have been believed to
exist The present strike was made
at a considerable depth which en-
courages expectations of it's presence
in body of important dimensions.
Present plans for development in
clude the installation of a blower
system to give air for prosecution of
the work at the point of the present
strike. The upper tunnel lies 600
feet above the lower with no con-
nection. 1t will require several
weeks to determine the nature and
extent of the strike, as only few
men can work in the crosscut at
one time.
The value of the ore uncovered in
the present strike is said to exceed
that of the early strikes. The Kear-
ney brothers operated the property 30
ago and made fortune from their
shipments.
The early history of the Old Do
minion was one of rich silver
strikes in pockets of lime formation.
No veins, however, were ever un-
covered. There is a chance that the
lower tunnel ran alongside the vein
instead Of cutting it. Miners who
worked in the property when

Four Fawns Will Be
Shown at State Fair

Four Whitehall fauns that were
taken as contrabrand in July, two
from Boundary, one from Rice and
one from Chewelah, and placed by
County Game Warden l.. S. Harbi-
son in the fish hatchery park in Col
vile under the care of Supt. c. J..
Rhode, were shipped this week to
Yakima, by the state supervisor of
game, for exhibit at the state fair.
These fauns are quite young, and
after exhibit at Yakima will be ship
ped to San Juan county. The ma
tive deer of San Juan are said to
be of inferior breed, and the state
supervisor of game expects to build
up the species by mixing with white

it was first discovered and miners
who have worked there since that
time in addition to mining experts
who have visited the mine agree
that there should be vein travers-
ing tho crosscut north and south.
Whether this vein has been located
remains to be seen.
The Old Dominion which is largely
a Colville company was formed some
time ago, a large percentage of the
stock being held by Colville business
men. 1t is capitalized for 10000
shares at $40 a share. No shares
are for sale.
The officers of the company are W..
H. Linney, we'll known Spokane min
ing man, president and manager; r.
B. Rogers, director and secretary,
Spokane; w. Lon Johnson, treasurer
and director, Colville; H. A.

genuine rifle shots, some ex-scrvlce
men who are not at all new to the
game, and some staid citizens who
are known for their nerve and cool
ness.
County officials are always ready
to lend assistance when needed by
the city, but present plans contem-
plate that the city will be able to
handle everything within the city
limits.
Details have been worked out to
cover all contingencies. The only
alarm system that has been made
public is the ringing of the fire
bell by two taps, then two, then two,
etc, to show the citizens that the
rifle brigade has been called out.
Citizens without rifles should stay
in the house, for everything can be
cared for without their assistance.
1t is hoped that Colville's pre-
caution will be unnecessary, and
that the even quiet of the city will
remain. But it is worth some
thing to know that provisions are
made for any contingency.
The old plan, used by burglars
for years, was to take care of the
night marshal in some way, and
leave the road free for their opera
tions. The Colville plan will leave
the marshals free, for their alb
sence will not affect the system.

Miss Dorothy Denbacher HOnored by Vote of Students
at High School Election

Miss Dorothy Diffenbacher will be
the princess at the coming Stevens
County livestock and fair associa-
tion's eighth annual fair to be held
here next week. This was decided
when the students of the local high
school by popular vote elected her
to be their representative at the
fair. Miss Diffenbacher will have
as her attendants Miss Louise
Brown of Chewelah, Miss LYDIA Err
win of Valley, Miss Pearl Lair OF
Marcus and Miss Zita Rowe OF
Northport. Kettle Falls is the only
place that had failed to name
representative by Thursday night.
1t was the intention of the general
fair committee to pick the princess
and her attendants from the most
popular girls in the county. Later,
when it was decided to crown the
princess on Friday evening, the
general committee decided to have
the princess and her attendants
chosen from the different high
school of the county, the students
to do their selecting.
Princess Dorothy and her five
attendants will be seen for the
first time next Wednesday after
noon, in the opening parade. AR

One of the best dancing pavilions
in the Northwest will be one of the
many attractions offered the visi-'
tors at the coming Stevens County
Livestock Fair Associations eighth
annual show to be held at Colville
next week.
Plans for the pavilion call for
structure 80x80 to be built in an
octagon shape. The money for
financing the building is being raised
by the Colyille band under the di-
rection of NJ. w. Meyer. The ap-
proximate cost when completed will
be in the neighborhood of $4,000.
Due to the short time left for the
opening of the fair, only the top
and sides will be ready. Later, the

sides in the form of swinging doors
will be added. Hardwood floors were
included in the original plans but 1t
was found advisable to wait and lay
the hardwood after the fair was
over. The pavilion will be completed
during the coming fall season.
"By the time the pavilion is com
pleted, it will be one of the best III
the Northwest" stated M. W. Meyer
"The building when completed VIII
r be larger than the Natatorium Park
pavilion in Spokane. 1t will also be
able to accommodate four times as
many couples as the /. o. o. r. nan
in this city. A good heating plant
will be installed which can be used
during the winter season."

which holds a million gallons.
The new reservoir is 80 feet
square and 10 feet deep, and is
equipped with two settling tanks.
Water is piped into this reservoir
