• Steig" was packing a heavy burden

t
Mrs. Maine Sauvain met with a |
nasty accident last night which will j
keep here away from the switchboard !
at the telephone ^office for several j
days. Thinking that there was trou- J
tile in the Riley kennels Mrs. Sauvain j
set out to investigate and in slipping
fell and lacerated her hand in bad
shape. Dr. Neuman was called and'
sewed up the wound which is most!
painful. This popular lady is willing j
to give teu thousand dollars—in Chris- j

has followed her for the past twelve
months.
To tost the efficiency of our lire de- j

1 alarm at box 24 on B street at 1:30 [
' this afternoon. The fire boys were

J ist beat the game and now thinks he
had somewhat of a close call.
Turning in fire alarms for fun in a
small community Tike this is worse
than bad form if done in the nature
of a joke. It causes ocnsiderable an
xiety to various people who are out
working and whose minds instantly
fly to their home sand families when
a call of that nature is sounded.

NO TRACE OF
BILLINGSLEY
Pacific News Service.
SEATTLE, April 24.—Up to late
this afternoon, the authorities have
been unable to get any trace of Lo
gan Billingsley, the escaped bootlegger
who sawed his way to liberty from
jail Sunday.
A reward of one hundred dollars
has been offered, for any Informtlon
tbat will icad to his capture.
The authorities think that friends
were waiting for him outside the Jail,
with an automobile, and that they
have taken him far enough away, to
enable him to safely board a train
without fear of detection.
In this event it is likely that he will
proceed to some largo city in the
east, where there would he small like
lihood of his running on to anyone
who might recognize him.
He is both shrewd and clever and
those who know him think that
through the asslstence of friends he Is
perhaps well provided with money.

MORE THAN DOUDLED
Pacific News Service.
Jl'NBAl', Aprtl 24.—Further exam
ination of Die Treadwell group of
mines estimate the damage caused
by the inrush of waters of the Gas
tlnenu channel to lie tlfteen million
dollars.
The Alaska Treadwell, A la ski Uni
ted, Alaska Mexican and Five llnu
dred m'ines are now all flooded to the
tide level. The Heady Bullion mine is>
dry and safe and there is no leakage
through the immense concrete hulk
heads which were put In several years
ago.
Continued subsidence of the surface
has caused the wrecking of many
more Infildings, and several more
homes are destroyed. On the other
end of the town many lenls are erect
ed and scores of the homeless ones
are now under canvas.
On the mainland many miners have
obtained employment on other prop
erties as well as the big mill of
the Alaska Gastlneau. However, there
are more than six r. ir.dte.1 of the
Treadwell employes who nr' idle and
await developments.
The catastrophe ncs cast a gloom
on the general commun'd}': this is
more than offset by the fact 'hat no
lives have been lost i" the ' g breaks.
