MURDER AT PALoUsE CITY.-A man
giving the name of W. r. Howard, and
who was stranger in Palouse City, was
shot twice and killed at the new variety
theatre there last Monday night, just
after the close of the performance. His
assailants were also strangers in town,
two of them being Johnny Cox and
Frank Chambeaux, of Lewiston, Idaho.
There is some mystery connected with
the affair that has not at this writing
been cleared up. Our informant says
that it is thought the dead man was a
detective, and probably encountered at
the show the person he was after. The
coroner was TO hold an inquest Thurs
day, when w. T. Cox, of Lewiston, a
relative of one of the parties above men,
toned, was to be on hand. We have not
learned the result Of the inquest. Later
The inquest developed the fact that
John Cox was the man who did the
shooting, and he has been held to the
grand jury without bail

The GAGE CoMPANY.-This talented
organization gave three performances at
the opera-house during the week: Mon
day, Tuesday and Wednesday evenings,
and were favored with good audiences
throughout We believe the general
verdict is that the company was the best
that has yet visited us. Their costumes
were not only historically correct in de-
tails but were rich and expensive; and,
considering the limited stage room avail
able, the different plays were very eff
fectively rendered. Monday night the
Pearl Of Savoy was given; Tuesday,
the Galley Slave" On Wednesday ev-
ening, under the auspices of the Pull
man Knights of Pythias, the company
presented Briam's famous drama, "Da-
mon and Pythias," in which the actors
excelled all their previous efforts and
were greeted by house full of repre-
sentative Pullman people. Mr.. Lloyd
as Damon was especially fine. He is a
sterling actor of the "old school," and
well-nigh perfect in the business of the
stage. Miss Gage, the leading lady,
made most favorable impression, and
the same is true of Miss Lydia Knott,
whose perfect figure and expressive dark
eyes played havoc among the suscepti-
bles. Our "devil" whispers in our ear
that HE considers Miss X. the handsom-
est woman that has ever visited our
stage. Kent Thomas, the comedian OF
the troupe, is genial performer, with
several very laughable topical songs. In
a word, all the members were found to
be ladies and gentlemen in the strictest
sense, and they can rest assured of a
cordial welcome should they ever again
favor Pullman with visit.

ONE MANS ExPERIENCE.-He was a

"Then Til come in and rest myself a
WHILE" said he.
But he didn't. He got one foot in
side the door, and then he suddenly got
down on his knees and rolled down the
steps like an intoxicated rag bag. When
his partner picked him up at the gate he
remarked, as he pressed his head into
shape again: Jerusalem gosh! you'd
better keep away from that yaller house,
Jimmy; they've got the pitcher of she
baseball club for hired girl, and she
carries the stove poker in her hip pocket. y

A "NEIGHBoRLY" LIE.-The Colfax
Commoner went very far out of its way
last week to publish the statement that
small-pox had appeared in Pullman, and
that a Mr.. Harris, of Colfax, had been
sent for by our authorities to bury the
deceased victim, as no one here would
do the work. This entire statement is a
falsehood-a malicious falsehood, too, as
the Commoner was fully informed before
publishing the item that the small pox
case was at Whalen, little burg six
miles north, and not in this city. There
is not, and there never has been, a case
of that disease in Pullman, nor is there
likely to be under the exercise of ordin-
airy precaution; nor are our people any
more exposed to it now than those of
Colfax, which city, by the way, has al
ready had a case of it. The two or
three persons exposed to the disease at
Whalen are in quarantine, and will be
looked after carefully until any danger
of spreading is over. The course of the
Colfax Gazette, which paper stated the
above case exactly as it was, is in wide
distinction to that of the Commoner.
But the latter sheet has no friendship
for Pullman-and it is quite possible
that our citizens reciprocate the feeling.
Once more we will say that there is no
small pox in this city or vicinity.

Should the contest be prolonged indef-

tise in it, even if nothing but card,
stating his name and the business he is

advertiser, but lets the people at a dis

1w HAAS & PIERCE.
On the arrival of the S. & P. pas
senger train from the north last Monday
evening, hurried messenger came up
town and seeking out one of our attor-
neys informed him that gentleman on
the train wished to see him on important
business. On reaching the depot it was
ascertained that the man was accompan-
led by lady, and that an officer from
Boise City, Idaho, had both under arrest
on charge of elopement and bigamy.
AS the officer had no requisition papers
for the pair "a fact that they seemed to
have but just discovered), they desired
to take some legal action against
being carried over the line into Idaho;
but the time was then too short for any
such action, and nothing could be done
for them. By this date they are doubt
less domiciled in the Boise City jail, to
repent at leisure"

To the Editor of the HERALD:

To the Editor of the HERALD:
I have been hoping to see something
in your excellent paper touching upon
much-needed reform in regard to the
negligent and offensive way some of our
farmers have of leaving their dead ami
mails lying around on the hills and in
the valleys. Putting it in the mildest
possibly phrase, this is disgusting; but,
when we realize that the air is poisoned
for miles adjoining those objects and
that people are continually breathing
that air, is it any wonder there is sick
ness in the community? Will you not
agitate this matter through your col
umns, until others take up the subject
and the people awake to the enactment
of laws forbidding the leaving of such
objects above ground "a hours? VIII
not our citizens arouse themselves to
this necessity for reformation?
Yours for PURE AIR.

In THE FRUIT SECTIoN.-Wawawal Is
fast assuming the proportions Of vii
lage. There are 10 or 16 pleasant
homes within radius of two miles, most
of whom have nice orchards and cozy
cottages surrounded by shrubbery,
ornamental trees and grasses. At this
season of year, the contrast between
the river country and the prairie is
decidedly pleasing. The fruit blossoms
and wild flowers fill the air with fra
GRANGE and are pleasing to the eye.
Wawawai has very fair school house,
and the school is well attended. Many
improvements are in progress in the
neighborhood, and all seem to be happy
and proud of their pleasant homes. Al
though there is no established mail route
to that place, they have postofice and
the settlers pay for having the mail car
ried once a week. In a short time it is
safe to predict that every foot of availa-
BILE fruit land in the Snake river bluffs
will soon be utilized. -Colton Eagle.

Send down thy winged angels, God,
Amid our grief so wild,
And bid them come where now we live,
As we have lost our child.
She rests no more within my arms,
Nor means in troubled sleep;
Nor waketh with sad, sweet smile,
And striveth not to weep.
We loved-we watched thro'out the night
To aid when need might be;
We hoped-and have despaired at last,
And now we turn to Thee.
Send down thy winged angels, God,
Amid our darkness wild,
And bid them soothe our souls tonight,
For we have lost our child.
w. r. PHELPS.

Voices OF the People.
To the Editor of the HERALD:

To the Editor of the HERALD:
The question of the hour now seems
to be: viii the taxpayers of the eastern
portion of the county submit without
protest to the action of the majority OF
the Commissioners, aided by few Col
fax politicians, in ordering a court house
built which, when completed and furn-
ished, will cost not less than $S5, 1000?
Are the wishes of the taxpayers, as ex-
pressed in their petitions signed by 600
well-known names, to be thus ignored
without remonstrance? Shall we stand
passively by and allow ourselves to be
saddled with this burden of excessive
taxation for the sole purpose of bolster
ing up a town that really holds the
countyseat by force rather than by the
peoples choice? "When thy right hand
offend thee, cut it off," Isn't it pretty
near time this suggestion was acted up
on? When the marriage relation be-
comes unbearable the parties are di-
vorced. Is it not time we applied for a
bill of separation? Whitman county is
in need of court house, but must it ex-
pend $4,000 for one? Inasmuch as
division of the county is certain, would
it not have been better to have waited
until the boundaries we're settled? If,
however, we must submit let US lose no
time in getting rid of such an expensive
member of our household.

ANOTHER SAD ACCIDENT.-Word was
received here last Monday that the IA
year-old son of Rev. r. H. Manner, at
Colfax, had been killed in a runaway on
the day previous. 1t appears that the
lad was out on horseback and was riding
without saddle or bride, but had taken
the fatal precaution of tieing the halter
rope around his wrist. The horse took
fright, threw him off, and dashed away,
dragging the helpless boy after him over
rocky ground. He was horribly mang-
led, his skull being torn off and brains
scattered along the road. The cap of
the skull was left hanging to the head
by a mere thread of flesh. The affair
created profound sorrow throughout the
city and awakened the deepest sympathy
for the unhappy parents. Mr.. Manner is
pastor of the Methodist Episcopal church,
at COlfaX,

SCHOOL ENTERTAINMENT schol-

undertake the drilling and rehearsing of
such large number of children and
youths, and from this point of view,
especially, the entertainment was quite a
success. We understand the net receipts
amounted to about $28, which have been
applied to school house improvements.

The Man with a Grievance,
The Journalist.


as regularly as the seasons roll around
| and summer succeeds spring we hear
| from the man who believes the American
| press is going to the dogs. He will bob
up III Washington, New York or else
where as certain as winter will come and
| ne wishes TO lmpart the information that
Journalism in America is a wicked pro-
| fesslOn. The man who hates reporters is
to be found in every town and hamlet
when official misconduct is about to crop
out. To the man who hates the light of
day to shine upon his actions the news
paper reporter is g most Objectionable
being. As q rule the Individual who de-
plOTes the pTying methods of the press Is
the man who has something to conceal.
The frank, honest, outspOken citizen has
seldom appeared in the role of one who
has grievance against the reporters.
As soon as the misconduct Of man has
been laid bare and he has been shown to
the public in his true colors we hear
from him as one who cannot believe in
the honesty OF the press. But we have
yet to hear of an instance in which a real
injustice has been done a public man by
the reporters. Their duty is plain. They
must collect and report the facts, and
with that their work ends But if some
one is made to feel that public approval
is no longer their due, the reporters gen.
orally receive the blame. No one knows
better than the reporters themselves that
the public officer or private citizen
who goes in hiding when the newspaper
men come around is the man who has
something to conceal which the public |
have a right to know. While the most |
accessible of prominent men and indeed |
the most talkative to the gentlemen of |
the press are those whose public acts and |
private conduct can stand the light of !
the monday sun.
It is III itself a suspicious circumstance |
when man publicly and at every op-
portunity declares that danger turks be-
hind the reporters pens. Honest men
90 not fear the daylight.
