A great deal of genuine fun on the

the tale of personal experiences turns
into matter of competition in a
company, he will then throw aside
reserve and crush opposition with a
red-h stream of anecdote and adj
venture. 1t ripples forth like a
mountain brook, shifting, changing
and carrying the nearer up, down,
round and about with the rapldity of
a whirlwind The situations, eli
makes and characters of the tale
changes with each sentence. 1t boils
from his throat like a Yellowstone
geyser. At the Lewiston banquet
he made one of the most unique
extemporary speeches and captured
everybody He insisted on the
southern editors stopping off and
looking at Walla Walla on theil
return and furnished them with free
accommodations while there. Com
ing into the city he first pointed
out where the best whisky could be
obtained and secondly where we could
get the best meals. One of the main
attractions is the Colonels mineral
cabinet, one of the most celebrated il

Ed Lolly and Emmett TAYLOR camr in

thursday while getting wood in the

strangers, all of whom were heavily
armed, and, from the descriptions given
persons here who are acquainted with
Paul p. Lawson are positive it was that
parsonage and his companions.
The description of the oldest of the
party TALES exactly with that of the
murderer, Lawson. The other two were
younger men, one of them quite so. They
had the appearance common to men who
nave been leading rough open air life
Tor some weeks, and even faded. They
inquired the way to Mineral and asked if
they could get down into the Snake river
canyon by that way. That part of Snake
river, or mo Mans Land" as it is often
called, is wild, almost impenetrable sec
