MURDERED BY a JAP.

Word was received at Boise Tuesday
evening that Jap in the employ OF
the Union Pacific had stabbed and
killed a man at Orchard. c. FL. jack
son wired Sheriff Moseley about the
tragedy, but from the message it could
not be told whether the victim was a
carpenter employed at Orchard or a
man named Carpenter. Deputy Fulton
was dispatched to the scene of the trag-
edy, and arrived with the Jap at Boise
Wednesday evening.
The message gave no particulars OF
the tragedy, but it is supported it is the
outrrowth of the bad feeling that has
existed between the Japs employed as

Threw PEPPER IN HIS EYES.

Mrs Henry McGregor was the defend,
ant in a rather sensational suit before
Probate Judge Anderson, Thursday, at
Moscow. 1t seems that the Vermont
Loan and Trust company had forelosed
mortgage on Mrs. McGregor's farm
an appeal was taken and stay of pro-
eeedings granted. In the meantime
the mortgage company had arranged
with one Albert Daggett to look after
the property, keep up the fences, pick
the fruit, ETC., and incidently to gain
possession of the property for the
mortgage company, to which Mrs. Nc
Gregor properly objected, insomuch as
the mortgage company was not in legal
possession of the property. Mrs. Nc
Gregor protested against Mr.. Daggett
picking cherries and other fruits, and
told him that if he did not stop she
would make him suffer. Daggett re-
fused to stop, and thereupon Mrs. Nc
Gregor threw a handful of red pepper
in his face. Daggett entered a COM
plant, Mrs. McGregor was arrested
had jury trial, and was discharged,
and at last accounts, Mrs. McGregor
was still holding the fort.-Double

A CALL FOR FUSION.

The executive committee of the Dem
ocratic State central committee met in
Boise Tuesday and issued call for a
State convention. The significant feat
ure of the call is a paragraph providing
for proposed fusion with the Popu-
lists. The call says in part: "Said
convention is authorized to unite with
or join in mass or joint convention
with the delegates elected to State
convention for similar purposes by any
other political organization favoring
the election of Bryan and Sewall for
President and Vice-President of the
United States and favoring the prin-
ciple of the free and unlimited coinage
of silver and gold at the ratio of 16 to 1,
independent of the action of any other
nation, and said convention is author
lied to jointly, with the delegates of
such other convention, make the afore-
said nomination, and such other nomi-
nations as may be necessary"

az small stations along the Short Line
On several occasions revolvers, knives
and clubs have been used on both sides
ont until Monday nothing fatal had
resulted.
IAe name Of the murdered man was
.. J. Shaughnessy. He was an employe
OF the Union Pacific and was engaged
with other carpenters in building a
water tank. The Jap is a section hand
named r. Okado. The murdered man
mas no relatives in this country SO far
as known.
Snaughnessy was killed because he
could not pay the Jap 35 cents he owed
MN Tor tobacco. The Jap asked him
Tor the amount due and Shaughnessy
replied he could not pay him then. A
snort time afterward the Jap called
him to one side and again dunned him
Tor the 80 cents. Once more Shaugh-
messy pleaded poverty, whereupon the
Jap struck him in the neck with a
pocket knife which he evidently had
open in his hand. Shaughnessy ran a
few yards and fell. He died in a few
minutes.
The Jap does not seem to realize the
eenormitY of his crime. lie says Shaugh-
Messy was no good, and this is the only
reason he advances in palliation.
The verdict of the coroner's jury was

HIS HONOR OBJECTS.

Attorneys Cannot Fight in the Forth District
Court.
District Judge Stockslager would
rather fish than eat, and he is as impa-
tiently awaiting the opening of the
shooting season as a boy; yet an in
cident that happened in his court, last
week, evinced the fact that his is not
sporting blood altogether.
A. F. Montandon and S. B. Kings
bnry of Boise we're pleading a case.
The latter was so abusive as to arouse
the ire of his opponent, who dared him
to come outside and fight and walked
out to the door of the courtroom,
haunting KingsburY to follow.
1t is hardly necessary to stare that
S. b. did not accept the invitation.
But by this time Judge Stockslager
warned the lawyers to behave, con-
Guiding:
"You will certainly haye to go out
side thecourt if you wish to fight"
If his honor had been a ull-blooded
sport he would have done like a Ken
tncky judge in a similar case.

in his court, the bailiffs rushed in to
