ALL PROMISES KEPT. The Avalanches Bury Tlireo Families Under Tons of Dozen or More Lives Lost. AT W011K. SPOKANK, Mtiruh a result of two tfruat snow-Slides Thursday on Canyon creolr, in the Coeur d'Alone mountuins, three families, consisting: altogether of from twelve to fourteen persons, are mangled and bruised beneath thousands of tons of snow, and any possibility of any of them being rescued alive is out of the question. Snow had aceuinulated on the mountains to depth of 00 feet, and the late rains caused the huge mass to move at several places.

At an early hour Thursday a section of snow 300 feet in length, near the Klaok mine, became detached and started down the steep mountain at a terrific pace, and before the inhabitants of the cabins in the path of thu slldo could floe the mighty avalanche wus upon them. Trees were torn up by the roots, bold era carried along with mighty force, the whole shaking the earth as if au earthquake was coroinjj. Two families, whose names could not be learned, together with their homes, cauiflit and curried along 1 with the slide and buried out of bight at. the bottom of the canyon. Others unac- countod for are also believed to have been killed.

after the first slide took place another occurred further up the canyon near jiurke, and hero further latalities are reported. A family named Chilson, consisting of father, mother and three children, heard the avalanche coming 1 Picking up the children, the frantic parents attempted to tlee to a place of safety, but before had gono fifty yards they were overtaken by the resistless mass of snow and crushed to death. Rescuing parties have started for the scene from Wallace, Burke and Mullen by special trains, and every effort will be made to rescue alive those buried beneath the snow, but the probability is that all are dead. Further slides are feared and the people living along the canyon are moving to placus of safety. your family, I've got rumiiy, ion.

It is a tree which bears persimmons on one side and wild crab apples upon the other. Of course, as a mutter of fact, there are two trees, but it takes a. very closa examination to convince a person that there are. They have grown, so closely together that each has lost its identity, so far as appearance is concerned, and the people in its neighborhood insist that it is but one tree. Tho persimmon side is the most fruitful, produces a fairly g-ood yield of fruit, which is not in the least altccted by the presence of tho crab apples.

The other side does not bear very well, iind it is' only during an occasional yew that there is a yeld of crab apples, but botli sides have been known to bear proof! crops in tho same year, Tho roots have never been Louis Globe Democrat.

Louis Republic. If you wunt to get an idea of the immensity of American railroading-, talk to a cur-searcher. The United States covers a pretty larg-e area, as some one observed, but the rial road men, and particularly the car-searchers, their way about it a.i a policeman knows his beat. A car-searcher, be it said for the benefit of the uninformed, is an ollicial sent ont by one of the companies to look for cars which have been borrowed by other lines and treated like borrowed umbrellas. Of course, these ofiiciais are experienced men, a great trust IN reposed in them and they luive a great weight of responsibility to carry on their One of these men whom I met few evenings ago talked of one cur "somewhere around by Eagle Pass," or a chance of finding another at Portland, as if these places were only a few squares the other side of liroadway.

"They'll take a car," he said, "somewhere down south, and, instead of sending it back when they're done with it, will use it for some other work. That goes on and on until, first thinp you know the car gets in a smashup." "Then you have no more chance of finding it," I interrupted. This was where I displayed my ignorance. "Haven't though? I go to where the car sent and make them show me Che books.

Let me tell about one car belonging to our line that got away down south and nobody could trace it. Tho agent at tliat depot was a little bit of a man, all beard. When I showed him tho entry on his books and asked him where that car was he said he didn't know anything about it. he says, '1 left it here on tho siding and when I uame next morning it was gone. Some of those freight conductors must have come in here in tho night, and looking around for a car, they just took tliat 'You're a I said.

'I've been railroading all my life, and I know that conductors don't go rawhiding about a yard at night time looking to get cars. They ain't so anxious to find extra work as all that. I said, 'you just tell me where that car's Rot to or I will report that you lost Well, he commenced whimpering about his family and how he'd lose his job if I got him into trouble about that car. At last he owned up that one day they were short of cars in the yard; they took and loaded up our car with agricultural machinery for Atlanta, the train was wrecked and the car was all burned up. 'If you told us that at the aaid, 'you would have had to pay three hundred or four hundred dollars.
