For the benefit of persons at distance

gers who come at any hour convient to
themselves. On being refused admission

A coroner's jury was called yesterday af-
ternoon by DR.. Merrill to investigate the
facts relative to the killing of Max Gurber
on Sunday. Nothing beyond what is al
ready known was elected. As some per-
sons may not be aware of how the affair
occurred it may be stated that the boys
were fishing in the pond near the brick
yard on the east side of the Lily lake road,
when, without moments warning, young
Gurber fell dead at the side of his com
panion, not uttering word after the fatal
bullet entered his brain. A most
commendable act was performed
by the gentlemen composing the jury, who
bestowed their fees upon the afflicted
parents to aid in defraying the funeral ex-
penses of their son. The elder Gurber,
although an industrious, hard working
man, is in rather poor circumstances.
Hence the action of the gentlemen as
above stated.
