CAPT. HENRY WEBER DEAD.
A Washington Pioneer and Participant
In the San Juan Island Quarrel.


PoRr TOWNSEND, Oct Especial. +
Capt Henry Weber, of Port Discovery,
the Democratic nominee for county COM
missioner from the Second district, was
thrown from a loaded wagon yesterday af-
ternoon, sustaining severe injuries from
which he died this morning. He was GO
ing home from Port H adlock with load
Of lumber and while descending a steep in
cline on Discovery bay the lumber slipped
forward onto to the horses. which became
frightened. Mr.. Weber, while endeavor-
ing to keep control over the animals and
to keep some window sashes from falling,
was thrown from the wagon against the
wheels. crushing and mangling his side,
from which he suffered intense agony I'M
his demise this morning.
Henry Weber was born in Mobile
borro, Damariscola Mills, Me-, October
49, 1924. He came to Puget Sound in the
SOS and for several years was an inspector
of customs under Collector of Customs
Ebey, who was subsequently killed by the
Indians on WILDLY island. In 1855 Mr..
Weber, in fight with Indians near
Whatcom, was wounded. He was on San
Juan island in 1859 during the trouble
which came near precipitaung Great Brit
war. Mr.. Weber was pres
emit when man killed pig
belonging to the Hudson Bay Company
on the island. The English magistrate
tried TO arrest Cutter, but he refused to
recognize the jurisdiction of England and
was backed up by the Americans on the
island. The Hudson Bay Company sent
to Victoria for assistance. and three men,
of-war responded. In the meanwhile,
Capt. Pickett, who was stationed at Fort
Beilingham, transferred his company to
San Juan island. erected breastworks and
defied the British to arrest Cutter. Itlooked
very much then as though England and
the United States would go TO war over a
pig. but Gen. Scott came out from Wash
ington City with instructions from Presi-
dent Buchanan TO settle the differences by
arbitration, which terminated by the Brit
ish evacuating the San Juan archipelago
The site where the breastworks were built
was owned by Mr.. Weber, who, in sub
sequent years, was reimbursed by the
United States government. He then came
to Jefferson county and settled on Port
Discovery bay. In 1854 he was elected 10
the territorial legislature. He was married
10 the only daughter of the late Rev. A.
Laubach. who survives her husbands

Then came one OF the most sensational IN
cidents OF the trial. Swing had not IN
tented TO take any part in IT, but ne was
compelled now 10 come forward IN his own
behalf. This be did in . characteristic
way. He came out on platform before
the presDytery and compared himself 10
the Roman Clcarcus. who, when his bag
gage vans were nired, threw OF his gold
embroidered robes and applied bis
shoulder TO the muddy wheels. His speech
was worthy OF the occasion. logic, Wit, IN
yective and then a smashing blow, lit up
with the genius of genuine orator. On
the conclusion OF his speech he left the
city for his old home n Ohio his
counsel went on with the argument. and

pose failed. He withdrew and his church
Withdrew with him, and maintained an

hereto trial was tne most dramatic since
days when heretics were burned at the
stake. Striking testimony to the progress
of theological thought nay be found in
the acknowledged fact that the charges on
which Prof. Swing was tried if made to-
day would hardly be entertained in any
Presbyterian court as sufficient for an ac-
cusation of heresy. McVieker's theater
