OUR GODFATHER

Malad Enterprise.
The republicans of Idaho will
be in raptures to learn that the Hon.
j. R. De Lamar has indicated
willingness to again make ruin
Gus personal sacrifice in the interest
of his adopted state. tits matter
of deep graduation that every once
in a while some blood crosses the
Atlantic ocean for the express
purpose of coming over here to
adopt struggling commonwealth
Idaho will never be able to repay
the debt of gratitude she owes De
Lamar. When she was initiated
into the exalted order of statehood,
he assumed the responsibilities of
godfather; he stood sponsor at
the babtismal fount and in token of
his fostering care and tender solicit
tude has time and again mounted
the sacrificial altar. With a meas
ure of human generosity that wells
up from his throbbing heart and
spreads out over the arena of his
stupendous gall, he gave himself
as security that the infant state
would forsake the devil and all his
works; and then he gave us a year
of pyrotechinics as commissioner to
the worlds fair. We hope the
republicans of Idaho will not i'm
pose any more burdens on this ten
der, charitable sprout. 1t is almost
inhuman to continue to lean on his
manly but congested bosom. Let
US lean for brief season on his
illustrious compeers. Say, Pride, or
Clagett or kurtz. Let US try to
remember that our De Lamar has
made his debut. Society now makes
demands on him which his refined
sensibilities cannot ignore. Instead
of the erst.while rugged plant Of
the mountains, he is now the deli
cate flower Of the conservatory
Handle him tenderly. He must
not be compelled to go to Minnea
polls and mix up with vulgar men
and have his nerves all unhinged
by the noise of roller mills. W.
hope the republicans who meet a
Pocatello will have the magnanim
ity to excuse our godfather.

TOLLED TO DEATH BY SIREN.
The wife of the elder engaged in
Irritation with strangers who came
to Monki, and would make engage
ments for them to visit her at her
home. She is a comely, buxom
woman, and her admirers would
hasten at night to her house only
to meet death at the hands of the
husband and brother who waited
their coming.
Among the last of the Koulik-
voskys' victims was a peasant who
had sought shelter from Indictment
weather in their hut. He fell
asleep, and the brothers attempted
to strangle him. The man awoke
and made most desperate struggle
for his life. as his body showed.
While he was held so that he could
not escape, boiling water was
poured over his head and face and
the murderers then succeeded in
strangling him. The body was
hidden beneath some straw in the
stable, where it was discovered be.

it to the forest. The finding of
body led to tile discovery of the
five other bodies in the woods.
The woman was taken into Gus
tody with the men, but she is kept
entirely separated from them. All
three have been subjected to pro-
longed examination, but they re-
fuse to confess anything.

Crime on German Russian Frontier.

ouiries into the case of two BROTH
ers named Koulikvosky, imprisoned
here on the charge of numbering
and robbing peasant near the
town of Bielostock, revealed the
practice of the wholesale murder of
emigrants on the frontier. Already
the naked bodies of FIVE victims
have been discovered in the snow
in the woods adjacent to the house
occupied by the Koulikvosky's,
who lived in the village of Monk,
and the search of bodies is pro-
ceeding.
There have been many disap.
pearances of late in the neighbor-
hood of Koulikvosky's residence,
and the police estimate that the
two brothers have murdered at
least forty persons. The residents
of Monki have been greatly startled
by the revelations concerning the
brothers, and there is much excite
ment throughout the whole district.
The elder brother, who was a peas
ant farmer, has young wife, who,
it is charged, took advantage of her
sex to abet her husband in his
crimes, receiving her share of the
spoils secured from the unfortunate
victims.
The younger brother had been q
soldier in the Russian army, but
his time had expired. He took to
smuggling across the frontier as a
means of livelihood and naturally
became thoroughly acquainted
with all the devious paths that led
into Prussian territory away from
the eyes of the watchful frontier
guards. Many of the persons desir-
GUS of leaving Russia, particularly
emigrants, were not supplied with
the passports required by the gov
eminent before Russians are al
lowed to leave their country, and
in them the brothers found their
victims.

had heard of just such shooting
scrapes as this when the whole popu-
lation OF Red Dog Gulch or Poker
Flat had been wiped out; he had
read of American miners who could
split a bullet at one hundred yards,
and OF COW. boys who could shoot
down the neck OF a bottle that was
revolving in the air. And now, after
oil the assurances of safety which he
had received. here were the elect OF
the land. the very cream of American
society, pulling pistols all around
him. They had all come to a friendly
dinner dressed in the outward garb
of civilization. but really prepared
for a fight. and his worst misgivincs
were verified. The gallant captain
had carried a pistol during his first
few DAYS in New York, but when
Florence assured him that il was safe
TO walk unarmed in Broadway and
Fifth avenue he had laid il aside, and
was now at the mercy OF enraged
poets. millionaires and statesmen.
Under these circumstances II did
not take him long 10 Lake up his
mind what TO do. He dived under
the table with a blanched face and
trembling limbs. Somebody had
turned out the gas, and the shooting
was now promiscuous. He was sure
men were b,ing killed all around.
Just then the door opened, aud
mild d-mannered waiter, with candle
in his hand. stuck his head in.
Gentlemen said he, Mr.. Gram
ercy thinks you are making little
too much noise. Indeed, Mrs. Gram
ercy cannot sleep"
This was more than Bill Travers
could stand. He dropped his pistol,
put his hands at his side and roared
with laughter, Jerome, Sothern,
Florence and the others did the same
and the gas was lighted and Captain
Lee pulled out from under the table.
Then he began TO see the joke. In
stead OF beholding the great men OF
America laid out on the floor he found
them hanging over from laughter.
The window was opened To let out
the smoke from the blank cartridges
and the diners were introduced To
Captain Lee by their right names.

am not so familiar with the Gus

admirable. and decidedly worthy OF
emulation in civil life. You may per
hans know that the flag Of II ship

time for evening colors, and ! was
anxious to see whether the ceremony
in the navy was different from that
aboard a first class Yacht speedily
learned that there was difference.
A few minutes before sundown
bugle-call sounded from the flag ship,
and the call was Immediately y repeat
ed by the buglers Of the other ships
OF the squadron.
What is that? II asked.
That's Stand by the colors said
one Of the officers.
Two sailors came aft, cast of the
ensign halyards, and stood by with
their eyes on the flag ship. In a few
moments we heard bugles sounding
again; for you must know that on
board ship many OF the commands
are con> eyed by few musical notes
upon the bugle A marine came aft
and, saluting, said:
Haul down, sir.
"All right, said the officer OF the
deck. Sound OH
AT that order the bugler Of the
Yantio blew the lovely call, Evening

The moment he sounded the first
note, the officers rose from their
chairs, faced the colors, took of their
caps, and stood silent, in respectful
attitudes, while the TWO seamen slow
ly hauled down the colors. bringing
them in over the rail a. the call came
TO All end. When the colors reached
the deck and were gathered in by the
seamen, and the last pote OF the bugle
