AN INDIAN MURDERER CAUGHT
The Idaho Statesman says: "The
Indian who killed Alex. Rhoder,
about the middle of November last,
has been caught at Ross fork and is
now in custody. This Indian mur-
derer is q brother of No-Ho-W -Wah,
who started on the war path on his
own hook and shot two tesmsters, at
the time that Joseph's band came
into the Lemhi valley. No-Ho-Wah
was caught about the middle Of No
vember last and tried at Malad City,
before Judge Prickett, and is now
serving out term in the penitentiary
for manslaughter, with intent to
murder--the teamsters having finally
recovered. This murderer, when he
heard that his brother No-Ho-Wah
had been arrested, shot the first
white man he saw, who happened to
be Alex. Rhoder, the herder of
Government beef cattle, for the sup
ply Of the Fort Hall agency. As it
was an out and out cold blooded
murder this Indian will be likely to
stretch hemp"
A FRIENDLY VISIT. Saturday af-
ternoon, just previous to putting
the DISPATCH to press, we were paid
a visit by Mrs. Sarah Fleming, of
Chehalis. Mrs. F. is the wife of
Mr.. John Y. Fleming, who served
in the war of 1912, and we believe
the only survivor of that memora-
BILE time on this coast. She is now
80 years old, and Is surprisingly Wig
orous for ono of that age. Her hus-
band is 81 years of age. The old
lady expressed much surprise and
pleasure at the rapidity with which
the printed sheets were delivered
from our Taylor cylinder. She
had never before seen power press
in motion, but in her younger days
had often witnessed the slow method
of working off the newspaper on q
hand press. Mrs. F. is a relative of
w. M. Tirtlot. Esq. of Snohomish,
whittier she goes on a short visit.
THE Tacoma Herald says that Mr..
Clough, Of that village, ON the 25th
inst, moved crop of green hay
from his yard weighing several hun
dred pounds. Also. that Joe Guth-
rie, teamster at Puyallup, was re-
Gently thrown from a wood wagon
and severely bruised. The wagon
wheel ran over his legs and came
very near crushing them. He is
now able to walk about, however,
with but little difficulty.
The Tribune of Saturday passes
some severe structures upon the con-
duct of DR.. Flattery, physician
who came here from San Francisco,
and remained about month in the
city. Whatever the Doctor may
have done to cause the article allud-
ed to, in justice to him we have to
say that his dealings with US during
his stay were scrupulously honor
able.
RARE CHANcE.--Al of the house
