Over thirty of the friends and rela
tives of the family of Judge Taylor
met at his residence on the 11th of
April and all enjoyed a very pleasant
day with music, singing, chatting and
talking over old times. It was the
occasion of the sixtieth birthday of
Mrs. Taylor. Mrs. Taylor has been
quite poorly for several weeks but is
considerable better at this writing and
enjoyed very much this expression of
kindness on the part of her friends and
neighbors. We hope she will soon
recover from all her physical
weaknesses and again be strong.
Rev. Edwards from Tolo goes
through here once a month to hold
services on Joseph. Mr. Edwards be
lieves strongly in foreign mission and
is to go to India at no very distant
time to preach the gosjx-l to her be
nighted millions. He is a very con
scientious young man and we wish him
abundant success in that great em
pire.

Mrs. McFarland is moving into the

Mr. and Mrs. Binegar, father and
mother of Mrs. M. C. Cone, are expect

Mrs. Maunders, who has been head
cook at the Newman Hotel for a long
period resigned recently and returned
to her home in Grangeville. Mr.
Newman's people are well pleased with
her work and regert to have her go

and faithful to her work, just such as
one would desire to employ.

Ask the man who owns a STUDEBAKER. Every one of them will tell you it's the best vehicle he ever owned. Why?
Because they're dependable—serviceable—and absolutely to be relied on! . J
Two vehicles standing side by side may look alike.
The same finish, the same upholstering, the same style and lines—yet
one is cheaper (?; than the other. But put them in service; subject them to rough usage—let the finish wear off—will they still he
alike. Again—ASK THE MAN WHO'S OWNED ONE. You know as well as we that it's not tfie finish that makes the
valuable. It's all right to have them look well but it's what's under the finish—the material and- workmanship that go into the
make up of the buggy, hack or wagon, that fixes it's worth to you. That's why you can be certain" of a bargain when you buy a
STUDEBAKER. You know that only the highest grade material and most skilful workmanship were employed in its construction.
The name itself is a positive guarantee of this and we as well as the makers stand back of this güarantee on every one we sell.

Plain and substantial, yet rich and handsome—with strength and durability showing
in its evejy part, this STUDEBAKER wagon is rightly deserving of the name.
The re inforced STEEL axles, the Sarven Patent, screwed rim wheels with heavy
steel tires, bolted between each spoke; the heavy double side and end springs and the hard
wood body, with double corner posts and steel covered corners, all attest it's capacity for the
most severe service, while the wide, roomy, solid panel back, removeable seats upholstered
m genuine special buffed leather, insure the utmost comfort in it's use. Truly a great riu- f or

"HITCH TO THE BEST" "
Schnell on Doumecq a few days ago.
She has not been well for some time,
but probably nothing serious.
Messrs. Powell and Canaan, who
are freighting between here and
Orangeville, put up at Arthur Over
man's at Tolo over night a short time
ago. They report large shipments of
goods to the Salmon River Store Co.,
which speaks well for the business en
terprise of our merchants.
O. H. Evans and C. E. McHue
killed a large brown bear on the
breakes of the Salmon, four miles from
this place. Also her cub was taken
alive. The gentlemen were not hunt
ing at the time, but the animal was
aroused by their dogs near the spot
where they were working. She was
vicious and at once showed fight in
defence of her young and McHue, who
was evidently nearer to her with gun
in hand ascended a tree for safety,
when Evans soon appeared with a
30-30 and shot her in one eye killing
her instantly. The cub, a large nice
one, is for sale.
Mr. Trueblood, living several miles
northeast of here, is sick with what is
thought to be cancer internal. He
also has a large tumerous growth of
some kind on his body.
Mr. Brown was down from Hot
Springs fifty miles up the river on
business several days ago.
Mr. and Mrs. Brinkman were over
from their home on the Snake spend
ing a few days recently.
A four horse team ran away recent
ly without a driver. Nothing broken
nor anyone injured so far as we know.
We have not learned the gentleman's
name.
A herd of swine was driven into
town last week, but have not learned
who the seller or buyer was.
Mr. Hodgson, who formerly clerked
in a store here and who has been ab
sent for quite a while, was here shak
ing hands recently with old friends
and acquaintances. How long he in
tends to remain we are not informed.
O. H. Evans and C. E. McHue
were in the 14th on business. The
former disposed of a number of swine
to Brash Bros. He stated that spring
work on the farm was over at his
place.
One of the Idaho County Sunday
School Conventions convenes here on
Thursday April 22nd at 10 o'clock
a. m. in the Odd Fellows Hall. As
this is the first of the kind ever held
here it ought to be, and probably will
be, largely attended and hi every way
well patronized. C. J. Bappell, gen
eral superintendent of' the Inland Em
pire Sunday School Association, will
be present and make two or three ad
dresses. A. C. Saxton from Grange
ville, president of the County Associ
ation will be present also. The pro
gram contains some thoughtful and
suggestive topics of great interest to
all who are concerned in proper teach
ing and training of children and young
people.
A farmers telephone line from this
place to Grangeville to connect with
the Nez Perce line is being quite
strongly talked, and a meeting of
citizens was held a few days ago for
the purpose of considering such a prop
osition which, as we understand, met
with favorable consideration.
Behean Jones & Co., who already
owned an extensive tract of grazing
land, have, as we learn, lately added
almost a thousand acres. These gen
tlemen have gradually prospered in
stock raising until they have become
one of the wealthiest firms in the
state.
our
Mrs. Geo. Behean recently became
the owner of a new piano.
Mr. Bentz, county commissioner, in
company with C. W. Smith, represent
ing the Columbia Bridge Company,
from Walla Walla, went up to Goff a
few days ago and inspected the pro
posed new bridge sight at that place.
We understand that the $9000
cently appropriated by the State Leg
islature was too small a sum to
plete the structure,
across the Salmon, at that point, neces
sary to be spaned, is about two hun
dred and forty feet.

was down on busir ess several days ago.

WARREN
Mary Woliston, aged fourteen,
walked from the Werdonhoft mine on
Big creek, to Cadby's ranch on the
Southfork of Salmon river, to attend
school. She came out with the War
ren-Logan mail carrier and the day
was so cold she had to walk to keep
from freezing. The distance is twenty
five miles.
Quite a number of salmon have
been caught by the fishers on the
Southfork.
In moving some of the campers to
the fishing ground Carl Brown had
the misfortune to lose a valuable
horse by rolling him off of the trail
into the river at the Brewer bridge.
Mrs. Carl Brown left Warren Mon
day for the ranch on the river to live
the life of a farmer's wife.
Harry Goodell, who resides in War
ren, is on the river attending school.
The little five year old son of" Mr.
Knox is going to school.
Only about fifteen people wintered
in Warren last winter. We are still
prisoners by being snow-bound. War
ren, in the winter time, is equal to a
penitentiary. Some people are like a
lat of grey-backs. Give them room
to run around in and they get along
fairly well, but pen them in close
quarters and they will fight. They
remind me of the little boy's answer
when a traveler asked him what the
inhabitants did for a living. "They
skin strangers," said the boy. "But,"
said the traveler, "suppose no strangers
come along." "Then they skin each
other," replied the boy.
We are just now having an epidemic
of gossip of the most disagreeable kind.
There is promise of a suit for slander.
The gates of Warren are all closed
now aud inside the gates, oh! what a
row; if people must depend upon only
themselves for pleasure and pastime,
there will enter evil fairies and mis
chievious elves to tantalize poor hu
man kind and cause a storm in each
small mind, for the brain is matured
not any too well, but rattles around
like a dry nut in its shell. Tongues
rattle too in spite of all you can do.
