Isnecial 10 rhe HERALD

BOISE, Idaho, Aug. 24.-Judge w. b.
Hepburn, the prominent North Idaho
attorney, is in the city. He stated that
the labor question in Shoshone county,
so far as Wardner was concerned, was
settled. The Bunker Hill and Sullivan
had over 300 men employed, 2S5 of
whom were at work under ground.
The company would, he said, increase
Me force by 100 men as the develop
rnent work justified. The best class of
miners had been secured, as they were
breaking more rock to the man than
had ever been broken under the most
favorable circumstances heretofore.
The Wardner mines intend to stand on
their own basis, and on their own mer-
its, he said. They are about fifteen
miles from the Canyon Greek mines,
and will not be Influenced by the latter
trouble existing on Canyon Creek. The
men employed at Wardner are largely
Americans, with the instincts and
training of American citizens. There is
no religion or politics in the mining
question at Wardner. but there is an
Overwhelming American sentiment.
- Notwithstanding the denunciations
Of the so-calleG western federation of
miners, the Wardner mines will con-
tinue to work, produce ore and add to
lftne prosperity Of those connected with
/, mining enterprises and to the wealth
of the country There are nine stamp
mills now being operated on Prichard
creek The ore is gold and averages
from s12 to $50 a ton. Judge Hepburn

BAD LORA.
NOW ON TRIAL FOR HER SISTERS
MURDER.
Impersonated Her Sister to Obtain
Insurance Policies, and Forged
Her Sisters Name to the Docu-
ments-Her Other Crimes.

MINNEAPOLIS, Mimi, Aug. A.-The
inquest over the remains OF Mrs. Lola
Hawkins, of whose murder, her sister,
Mrs. Lora Perkins stands accused, was
begun this morning. The most important
testimony elected, was that of DIR. W. s.
Bell, who attended Mrs. Hawkins after
the fatal fire. He testified that the wo-
man had been questioned before her death
by the neighbors in his presence as TO
how the accident occurred. She was con-
fused in her replies, being under the in
f1uence of an opiate. She said the first
intimation she had of the danger was
when she woke up and found the bed in
flames. Later she did not know whether
the lamp exploded or whether she had
overturned it. From this evidence it is
certain that the state expects to combat
the ante-mortem statement which the de-
Tense claims woul1 clear Mrs. Perkins.
The state refuses absolutely to say what
the evidence against The imprisoned Wo-
man is, but it is known that she is charg-
ed with impersonatinS her sister in OBJ
tanning the insurance policies and with
forging her sisters signature to the docu-
ments. 1t IS also suspected that the two
women were really not sisters. Mrs.
Perkins was Interviewed this morning and
told a romantic story of their lives. She
claimed they were of native Spanish
birth. and had come from Madrid to
Tampa, Fla, III childhood. They were
educated in a convent and there she mar
ried Hal Perkins, a printer now dead.
She asserts her entire innocence and de-
clares that they both took life insurance
for the benefit of each other although her
policy has not yet been allowed She was
soliciting for the Security Mutual Lite,
of New York and they took the insur-
ance to save rhe commissions and were
to assign the policies to each other. She
admitted that she mad already made Two
payments on Mrs. Hawkins policy. She
stoutiy maintains her innocence.
