MRS. KUEHN IS
HOLD-UP VICTIM

Mrs. r. e. Kuehn, former resident
of this city and for several years the
proprietress of a restaurant here and
at Eastport, was one of three women
held up Tuesday night at the Park
water hotel, near Spokane, by two
unmasked men, who secured $40 from
the cash register of the hotel din
ing room The other two women
present when the robbers appeared
were Mrs. Mable Van Alstine and Mrs.
BERTHE Alexander The women were
sitting at table eating when the rob-
bers came into the dining room about
10 o'clock.
Mrs. Van Alstine gave the following
interview to the Spokesman Review:
1.-THE first we knew was when a
man jumped up on the counter and
said Throw up your hands He
pointed a gun at us and almost with
his words reached over and opening
the cash register, took $40 in silver,
all there was.
"It happened so suddenly we were
almost swept off our feet with sur
prise and didn't have time to be
frightened. In spite of the gun the
man on the counter was pointing at
us and the gun in the hands of the
other bandit who stood back a little
ways, Mrs. r. E. Kuehn, wife of the
proprietor of the hotel, jumped up and
rushed back to her room for a gun.
She woke up Mr.. Kuehn and together
they came back with gun, but the
men had got away It's a wonder she
wasn't shot. Mr.. Kuehn searched the
district but found no trace of them"
Deputy Sheriffs Brewer and Nc
Ewin of Spokane county, responded to
Mr.. Kuehn's call and upon his advice
combed the section around the Spo-
kane International tracks. as he
thought they had gone that way, but
they also failed to find a clue to the
pair. One was about 25 and the other
about As years old.

 DECLARES DIVIDEND
President H. c. Noble Addresses Meet. ing of Directors Held This After
 nOon-3 Per Cent As Usual

The directors of the North and Judd Manufacturing company held a meeting today at which time a quarterly divid- end of three per cent was declared pay able September 30. There was a good attendance at the meeting and the dividend declared has been the same as for the past number of years.
 President H. c. Noble in addressing the gathering said in part:
 Tt has always been our policy to pay dividends consistent with our earnings, having in mind the importance of main- taining a strong financial position. When normal trade conditions shall have returned the management will doubtless consider the payment of div idends commensurate with its improv- ed earnings x
