Southern Idaho Disturbed Over
the Pasture of Stock.
TWO BANDS ARE WIPED OUT
1t Is Said That an Oath. Bound OrganiZa'
ton Is Directing the
Slaughter.

Boise, Idaho, Aug. There are some
sensational developments in the matter
of the wanton killing of cattle in Long
valley and more are likely to follow.
On June Is, early in the morning,54 head
of stock belonging to Ada county
ranchmen were driven into corral and
shot down. Last fall band belonging
to Peter Pence had been killed in the
same locality. The farmers there DO
not want stock driven in for summer
pasture, and trouble has long been
brewing. It is said that an oath-bound
organization was formed and that the
killing in June was directed by this or
ganization. A number of arrests have
already been made, three cases now be-
ing on in Idaho City. One man has al
ready been bound over; this is Joe Rob-
bins. He was bound over on a charge
Of making threats, but the real charge
against him is that of being connected
with the slaughter of cattle.
On the night of the killing lad
named Thornton, employed by the cat
tlemen, was met by four armed and
masked men. They compelled him to
dismount and held discussion as to
what should be done with him. Rob-
OlIlS was dIIcStSu DIS OcAA1S O1AC VI IAAAS
party. The story told by the boy on the
stand was of a nsational character.
The men, he said, held a consultation
as to whether or not they should kill
him. 1t was brought to a conclusion by
one Of the party speaking UP with the
announcement that if they killed the
lad, they would have to kill him also.
The masked men then cOntented them
selves with driving the boy out of the
country. After Robbins was bound over,
he and his friends procured the arrest
Of Messrs. Stewart and Kennedy, cat
tie owners, on the charge of having
burned the. Payette bridge. The men
arrested were discharged, however, and
in this Connection it may be stated that
it is limited that the gang Of cattle kill
ers burned the bridge to prevent the
driving in of sheep.
During the hearing of the bridge
burning case facts were developed tend
ing to show that T. Worthington, Ban
Higgins and a man named Conyer were
concerned in the slaughter of cattle,
and their arrest quickly followed. They
were brought out to Idaho City Tues
day and their hearing is now in prog
ress. The prosecution expects to make
a number Of additional arrests, some
prominent men being implicated.

ENGLAND DENOUNcEs THE PORTE
GladstOne's Speech on Armenian Out
RACES Cheered TO the Echo.

RACES Cheered TO the Echo.
Chester, Eng, Aug. 6.-The town hall
was packed today in anticipation of
hearing the speech of Gladstone on
the Armenian question. Among those
present were Messrs. D. r. Clifford and
Robert T. Paine Of the American Peace
Society. The audience rose with vo-
ciferous cheers when Mr.. and Mrs.
Glandstone entered. The duke Of West
minister, chairman, read letter from
the marquis of Salisbury, the new pre-
mier, notifying the duke that the sum
of $1,000 subscribed for the relief of Ar
menians had been forwarded to the
British ambassador at Constantinople,
Sir Philip Curry, who had been given
full discretion as to the manner in
which the money shall be distributed.
After the usual preliminaries, Glad
stone rose, amid an outburst of enthu-
siasm. He said the Armenian ques-
ton was not a party matter or a re-
ligious affair. The present situation
in Armenia resulted from an intolerably
bad government, perhaps the worst on
the face of the earth. (Applause) Mr..
Gladstone read resolution to the effect
ton that her majesty's government will
have the cordial support Of the entire
nation, without distinction as to party,
in any measure it may adopt in order to
secure for Armenians such fOrmssOf ad-
ministration in the province as to pro-
vide effective guarantees for the safety
of life, honor, religion and property, and
no reforms can be effected without the
continuous control Of European powers.
Mr.. Gladstone then said the resolution
was moderate and expressed not only
his own sentiments, but those of their
transatlantic brethren, who felt even
more strongly than did those present
that the dispassionate inquiry which
was made after the Sassoun massacre
showed the powers that language did
not suffice to describe the outrages,
which made ones blood run cold. (Ap-
plause) The inquiry, he continued,
verified all the sickening details, not
timony, which was doubly entitled to
credence, as America, politically, had
no interest in the Levant. This testi-
mony, said Gladstone, with great en-
ergy, summed up into four words, was:
"Plunder, murder, rape, torture"
But" added he, "the plumber and MUIR
der were comparatively mild beside the
work of the ravisher and torturer. This
is not the work Of the dangerous class
es," continued Gladstone, "but Of the
government at Constantinople and it's
agents, and there is not one of their
deeds for which the government is not
responsible

An italian Game.

A traveller describes a game which Is
popular with the children of Italy. II
is very like one played by American
children. In italy the game is called
counting the eggs, and is thus played:
The children sit in row on the grass.
with every pair of brown feet we'll III
sight. The mother counts her eggs
that is, the children's feet-and then
says: "Now, there are Is eggs. Be sure
you don t eat any while 60 to church. "
In her absence the children tuck up
certain number of feet under their
frocks and say, 'What long time
mother is at churchp' She comes home
counts the eggs and says: "Why, now
is this? I left 16 and now there are only
ten. " The children answer that wom-
an came while she was gone and offered
four chickens for the six eggs, and they
took her offer. "Where are the eggs?"
asked the mother "Down in the field, "
they reply. The mother goes to seek
them, and no sooner is her back turned
than all her children jump and dance
about, shouting, "We've eaten them
ourselves, a" whereupon the mother has
to catch them all and whip them. The
last one caught has to be the mother the
next time.
