Cleopatra, Helen of Troy and the

NOTICE TO CHAUTAUQUA
TICKET PURCHASERS
Tickets Must He Purchased ouly from
Cashier '
The details for the big Chautauqua
are all worked out. The committee
has worked untiringly for several
weeks. The rest Is up to the people.
The Ellison-White management is put
ting on the greatest company of enter
tainers that has ever appeared on their
circuit This is made possible by
their increasing experience and know
ledge. The only thing that can now
defeat the hopes of all parties con
cerned is lack of co-operation on the
part of the people who last year sub
scribed for this year's Chautauqua.
The local committee wishes to call
attention to the fact that those who
have subscribed for tickets must pur
chase them from Mr. C. H. Ede, the
cashier, in order to obtain credit.
Those who buy tickets second hand
will not receive credit. Besides Mr.
Ede, tickets may be purchased of the
following authorized persons: U. S.
Mix, O. H. Holmberg, C. O. Portfors
and V. R. Clements.
Mr. Ede reports that tie people are
meeting their obligations cheerfully,
but there must be uo slacking up in
the sale ol tickets if the required num
ber is to be sold. There have been
some removals since last year's sub
scriptions were taken, resulting in a
consequent loss of ticket sales. This
will have to be made up by others
who have not already subscribed.
Chautauqua week has become recog
nized as a period of recreation and
entertainment of the highest order.
Farmers, laborers and merchants alike
are taking advantage of Chautauqua
week by taking their annual vacation
during this period. The farmers of
the surrounding country find this the
most convenient place to meet their
neighbors who live somewhat distant
from them. This fact has made the
Chautauqua a great social factor in
the community. The fanner living at
Weippe or Fraser finds his friends
from Cavendish, Russell or Greer at
the Chautauqua. After the perform
ance is over, they meet in or outside
the tent and enjoy a happy greeting or
swap yarns tor some thirty minutes
before returning, to their respective
homes to do the day's chores. The
dates have been so arranged as to
make it convenient for the farmers
to attend every meeting. The social
life that,, centers around Chautauqua
week is worth its weight In gold to
thé friend who meets friend.

DEATH REMOVES J. M. JOHNSON
Had Suffered Months with Rheuma
tism Following the Flu.
Although a resident of Orotino aince
the middle of October last, Mr. and
Mrs. J. M. Johnson soon endeared them
selves to the citizens of Orotino, and
when death removed the husband and
father at 5:55 last Friday afternoon,
the sympathy of many friends went
out to the bereaved wife and father
less children.
With their family of seven children
Mr. and Mrs. Johnson came to Orotino
last fall from Welser, Idaho, hoping a
change in climate would restore Mr.
Johnson to health, as he was bedfast
with rheumatism, In which condition
he was left after recovering from the
Influenza. But the change brought
only temporary relief of short inter
vals, following which the disease
seemed to take a firmer hold upon its
victim, until death relieved him or his
suffering.
J. M. Johnson was born In Greene
county, Penn., May 12, 1880, and cam«
to Idaho when a young man. He was
united in marriage to MiBS Daisy Sen
tor at Nezperce November 24, 1901, and
about 15 years ago removed to Weiser,
luter engaging in the sheep business,
in which industry Mr. Johnson was
quite successful. But the fall in price«
and illness soon depleted the comfort
able fortune he had amassed by hard
work, economy and honesty.
The funerul was held from the Chris
tian church Monday afternoon, Rev. J.
A. Chaney of Ciarkston, Adventist,

FREI» PFEUTI LOHT LIFE
DROWNING IN NORTH FORK
Word reached Judge Seymour Sny
der Friday afternoon last that Fred
Pfeuti had been missing from his home
op the North Fork for some time, and
Saturday morning Judge Snyder, Sher
iff Shea and Attorney Smith were ta
ken to the Pfeuti premises by N. O.
Helgeson. A careful search was mad«
but nothing developed leading to th«
whereabouts of the well-known, ranch
man who had made his home on th«
river for 10 or 12 years.
Sheriff Shea made further investi
gation Sunday without result, but
early Monday word reached him that a
body bad been found in the river som«=
distance below the Pfeuti ranch.
Upon arriving at the point designa
ted, the "body" proved to be that of
a bear instead of a human being. The
sheriff decided to continue his search,
however, and about noon the body of
Pfeuti was found in the river near
his home by Omar Snyder, son of th«
probate judge. It was under a log in
a pile of drift wood, well out of sight,
a shoe being exposed above the sur
face of the water leading to the dis
covery of the body.
A coroner's jury was called after
several persons arrived from Oroflno,
the jury deciding that Pfeuti came to
his death by accidental drowning. Dr.
Fairly made a careful examniation of
the body and found the neck broken,
which was caused no doubt by drift
wood pounding against the unfortu
nate man as he lay pinioned under the
log where he was found.
The body was brought to town and
given a Christian burial Wednesday af
ternoon in the cemetery at Orofino, a
number of citizens attending the ser
vices, which were held from the Bobo
undertaking parlors and conducted by
Rev. Hoffman.
Pfeuti was 51 years old, a native of
Switzerland, where a brother and
other relatives reside,
two sisters living in Illinois.
He also had
