Jan, 12 The decision of the attorneys interested in the prosecution of the murder case against Harry Orchard not to grant the request of Attorney Fred Miller for the defense to postpone the pre liminary examination of the prisoner for a week was received here with evident satisfaction .The prosecuting attorney voices the general opinion that nothing could be gained by a postponment of the case beyond Saturday. Prosecutor Van Duynwas assured yes terday in Boise that Chemist Jones would have his analyses of the suspisious powd ers and liquid! ready by that time. There seems absolutely no doubt but there will be sufficient evidence at hand to insure that Orchard will be bound over for trial in the district court , . It is reported that immediately after the preliminary examination. Orchard, being bound over for trial, that he will be taken o Boise to await the convening of the dis trict court which is slated for February 20. For this reason, if for no other, it is deemed advisable to have the preliminary examination as soon as possible, for the jail facilities here are not adequate for the holding of a man charged with the crime of which Orchard is suspected. SPENPWG MONEY FOR CONVICTION The Caldwell Benking & Trust com pany, of whioh Frank Steunenberg was president his detar.nhsl to devote th amount of the reward offered by it for the apprehension of the assassins, to the work of 'ferreting out and prosecuting them.

S A TRIAL SOLICITED -SO TIRED" A woman 51 years old took her own lifa in Chicago recently, leaving to her sorrowing family this only explanation: "I am so tired, so tired there is so much to do." She had finished her task before she had sought death. Her home had been made clean and neat A heavy washing had been dried, ironrd and laid out in neat orderly piles. Then she had gone to the attic of the little home and with her own tired hands had welcomed death. There is a sad lesson to the living who mav still have a tired mother in the household, bearing the heavy burdens uucomplainingly. and should be dear to whom she cares for so faithfully. She should be given every help possible from the stronger sons and daughters who are neglecting the home duties that they might perform, leaving for them for the tired mother to do. "I am so tired, so tired there is so much to do." To many a good mother feels it as she goes on bearing the burdens. Too many well grown children forget it as they seek pleasure and pastime and constantly add to the burdens of the mother which should be lightened as the years go by. Drover's Journal. HOMEMADE MINCE MEAT From now on, the ladies oi um church will have home made mince meat for sale at G randy & Russell's meat market Don't forget this when you are in need of mince meat EUa EAM1NE The coal famine which struck Baker City early in the winter is now sweeping over the towns of Eastern Oregon and Southern Idaho. In Payette where they have no wood, it is said the famine is very acute as over 200 families are out of coal and all of the schools have been closed down. There was a brief breathing spell in the Baker City situation this week, when a few cars of coal were received by local dealers. But this did not last long and the demand for fuel is , far from being satisfied. The Brooklyn school was fur nished with coal through the efforts of Mayor Johns, who took the matter up di rectly with the raliroad people. . POSTPONED C.C.
