Baker & Son “WHERE QUALITY AND PRICES MEET” The New Spring Hats You will find all the correct and popular shapes here, in many new and beautiful shades, Straws are here. all the season’s new- A Bear Killed Near Town. The first time our people ever saw areal bear in an automobile was Tuesday when Ed Eckerman brought a dead one to town in his car. Tuesday morning the Ecker- man boys were surprised to find a young bear—perhaps a year old— in their pasture three miles east of town. The animal did not make any effort to get back to his wild haunts in the mountains, as he evidently had come out to get a mess of fresh veal or pork, and was not inclined to leave without it Gus Eckerman sent the brute to “bear heaven” by the rifle ball route with a bullet through its neck, The bear must have been Hooverizing this spring, as he was very lank and thin and weighed} only about 90 pounds, although it , was 4 feet long by 24 feet high. Clyde Von Bargen, the taxider- mist, is doing the “padding act” with the bear’s hide and will soon have it looking as much alive as is possible for a dead bear to look. Sale of P..N. Huffman Farm P. N. Huffman has sold his fine 320-acre farm, 10 miles northeast of Cottonwood, to Postmaster L. A. Wisener of Grangeville. This season’s crops go with the place, and while the consideration has not been made publiec, it is known that the price paid is better than $100 an acre. Geo. M. Reed, the well known real estate dealer of Grangeville, acted as agent for this deal. It is Mr. and Mrs. Huffman’s intention to buy a smaller place in a milder climate and they ex- pect to make an auto trip to Southern Oregon, starting next week, to see how that country suits them. It is their intention to have an auction sale of their stock, farming machinery, etc., the fore part of July. The Huff- man family are among the best citizens on the prairie, and their many friends will regret to lose them. ——_0——_—_. Soldiers off to Camp Lewis Several hundred people, includ- ing our band, were at the depot Monday morning to cheer the boys who were on the way to Camp Lewis. The contingent from Idaho county in this draft was 82, two of whom are Cotton- wood boys—Henry Downer and Ben Hussman. Advices from Washington are to the effect that the June draft is to be about twice as large as the last one. In that event, it will take nearly 75 young men from this county. It is reported that during June about 25,000 men are to be taken from Camp Lewis to France. This will make room for training a large number of recruits. camiiaebineasaee A free wedding dance will be given in the Greencreek hall on Tuesday night, June 11. Every- body invited and a good time as- sured for all. Joseph Plains Pickings Don’t forget the big Red Cross 14-15. Mrs. Ray Kidder is visiting her parents Mr, and Mrs. Rippey for a short time. Dan Hill’s moth eris here from Westlake to spend the summer at the home of her son. A number of our young folks attended the dance at Spring Camp the 21st, given for the sol- dier boys. The surveyors on the road to the Salmon river from Joseph are getting along fairly well consider- ing the stormy weather. Miss Melvina Rowton, who re- cently passed her 8th grade exam- ination, has received her diploma from her teacher, Miss Merle Bar- 'rett. At the Red Cross entertainment and auction given one night last week at the school taught by Miss Jennie Peters, the magnificent sum of $666 was taken in. P. H. Dye and wife of Cottonwood were | among those present. The farewell dance given in honor of the boys called*in the last draft was a big success. The house was full and a fine time en- Joyed by all. John Unzicker, Shorty Tweedy and Frank Cham- berlain were present, but Glenn Norris and Joe Thomas were vis- iting relatives at outside places. eas Lustie-Wagner Marriage Prof. Wm. A. Lustie, principal of our high school for the term just closed, and Miss Anna Wag- ner, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. ;Wm. Wagner and who had been an operator in the Nezperce tele- phone office at Grangeville during the winter, were married Satur- day evening, May 25, at the rec- tory, the Rev. Father Willibrord officiating. The happy couple left next morning for Seattle, the home of Prof. Lustie, and where he will take a course in the University thissummer. He has been chosen by our school board for the posi- tion of Supt. of our high school for the next term, and he and his| wife will return to Cottonwood in September. Prof. and Mrs. Lustie are among our most popular young people and their many friends wish them all kinds of happiness in their | voyage o’er the matrimonial ocean. | Their address is 4543 Brandon St., Seattle.
