Murder on WILDLY Island.

A Correspondent at Port Townsend
furnishes US with the following particu-
lars of the recent cold-Giooded murder
on WILDLY Island
The name of the murdered man was
Milton Heron !; age, between Az and 40
years. He was from one of the Western
States and has been on this coast about
2l years. The person accused of the
murder and now in prison for the crime
IS named Daniel Dale he took up land
claim on WILDLY Island, near Useless
Bay, about nine years ago. The body
of the murdered man was found on Sat
urday, February 4th, by Messrs. Ander-
son, Thomas Johns, John Bryant and
James Wilson, who went in search of
him, as he had not been seen alive since
Wednesday Morning, January 3lst.-
When this party found him, he was dead
and appeared to have been shot in the
back Ct his head. They did not touch
him, but notified the Coroner, who, with
the Sheriff of the County, Mr.. E. H.
Hathaway, Immediately repaired to the
place where the remains of Heron lay.
On examination it was found that de-
ceased had been at work chopping up a
small tree, and that the assassin came
up behind him and fired the fatal shot,
two buck shot having entered his head
and five more lodged in the small of his
back. From where Heron had been at
work, after being shot he evidently start
ed to run to his house, but had got only
40 or so feet when he was supposed to
have dropped dead.
About one year ago, as is generally
known, Heron went into partnership
with Dale in the ranch, putting in about
$3.50 in money, and has worked on the
place ever since. Two or three weeks
ago Heron went to Port Ludlow and
purchased some goods, and after paying
what money he had he told them In the
store to charge the balance to Dale and
himself as partners. When Dale learn
ed of this transaction, he was very in
dignant applying abusive epithets to Her
ron and telling him he had no interest
in the property. Heron went to Port
Townsend for legal advice. and returned
on the 30th of January. Dale started
for Port Ludlow. but on learning that
Heron had returned. he turned back
and went to new cabin he had built
about mile and quarter from where
Heron lived. q I'll i}iiR lTs tSio !

lerson said to him. ''We want you to
,ome to my cabin" Dale quickly said,
What, have you found Heron ?" AZ
ter the Sheriff had taken him in charge,
he said they could not prove he killed
Heron for no one saw him do it.
The prisoner is lodged in Jail at Port
Townsend to await the action of the
Court, which meets on the 10th of this
month. He is over 60 years of age anc
without family.

The MURDER TEIAL.-On Monday af-
ternoon the following jury was empan-
neled out of thirty-seven persons, to sit
upon the trial of Henry Brown, charged
with the murder of All Wong, a China
man, in October last Stephen Rams
dell, Ira Woodin, Robert Barrett, John
McIsaac, John Christ, David Sheridan,
William Knight, Henry L. Denny, Jas.
McElroy, j. ". Borst, Chas. Rich and
NJ A. Kelly. On Tuesday the witnesses
for the prosecution and the prisoner
were examined. The theory of the de-
fence was, that Davis, the party who
was with Brown at the time of the muir
der, committed the act and then by du-
ress forced the prisoner to leave the
county with him. The defence was
conducted by McConaha and York while
the prosecution was represented by 6.
NJ Bradshaw, Prosecuting Attorney, as
sisted by Mr.. Mcknight.
The case was submitted to the jury
on Tuesday evening and no verdict had
been agreed on at the time We go to
press.
LATEE.-Last evening the jury returned
a verdict of guilty of murder in the
second degree recommending the ex-
treme penalty of the law 30 years in
prisonment.

Washington street of less dimensions
lately completed, two three story brick

srsKrso OF TIE Aida The papers

SIxKNa OF THE Aida The papers
generally. in noticing the sinking of the
steamer Aida, at her wharf in this city
on Thursday morning last, attribute the
accident to gale which threw the boat
against the wharf with such force as to
knock hole in her bottom. That ac-
count is not true. The accident occurred
from valve being carelessly left open.
She was raised next day and found to
have sustained no injury from any
violent conclusion or contact with the
wharf. There were four or five other
steamers lying around the wharves at
the time none of which were injured in
consequence of the high wind. Our
harbor is SO completely land-locked
that no wind has ever prevented steam
ers from landing safely, or causing any
damage to vessels lying at the wharves.
