CALLED EAST.
GEORGE j. LEWIS,
Secretary Of State.

ThO r.. Rev. Elhsibsrt Talbot Elected Bishop o.
cSOtrnl PsnAsyIvanIs.
The tendency in America :is to run
TO extremes, but the eulOgies passed on
Bishop Talbot because Of his successes
during his Episcopate Of eleven years
in this arduous field are not to a small
degree exaggerated. When we CON.
slider the number of churches he has
built, the number of missionaries he
has brought amongst us aud mainly
supported, the enormous amount of
money he must have raised to build
these churches, the magnificent girls
school in Boise, the large and com
modious boys school and the beautiful
and costly Cathedral In Laramie, Wyo.,
one is forced to the conclusion that It
is almost beyond the possibilities of
one man to accomplish such splendid
results in such comparatively short
time. He is In the fullest western
sense of the term ga rustler." In the
east he is known as the "Prince of
Beggars." When he appeals on behalf
of his western work the purse strings
loosen. His stirring eloquence, win
some manner, and tactfnl methods are
irresistible, so he never fails when in
his undertakings.
And now comes word from South
Bethlehem, Pa, that we will lose him:
That he has been elected by a strong
and unanimous vote, Bishop of Cen
trail Pennsylvania, a diocese Of great
wealth and teeming population.
We recall that shortly after his con-
secratiOn as Bishop of this diocese he
was elected Bishop of Georgia, but
declined the honor, choosing rather
to undertake to build up a strong work
in the for west, but now that he has
we'll earned his promotion he accepts
the new honor and congratulation are
flooding him from all quarters.
The eloquent divine preached at St
Dayid's church last Monday evening to
a large audience. His sermon was
characteristic of the man. 1t was
powerful and stirring, :On Wednes
day last he departed for Ceur d'Alens
country but will return Wednesday
next and deliver his famous lecture
"My Impressions Abroad" We be-
speak for him large audience.

ing in part:
"The motion of defendants to strike
from the files the cost bill filed by the
plaintiff should have been sustained.
This court held when this case was
first before it that the costs should fol-
low the final result. Sss ThiesOR VS..
Riggs, 40 Pac. 1929.
The final result was a judgment in
favor of the defendants. The plain
tiff failing to recover anything, should
not have been allowed any costs against
the defendants.
"Wa are at loss to know upon what
theory the honorable district Judge dis
allowed any of the items in the cost
bill of the defendants. There was no
affidavit or evidence controverting the
affidavit verifying the defendants cost
bill. None Of the items on the face of
the cost bill appear to be illegal. This
being true, the affidavit verifying the
defendants cost bill, in the absence of
evidence contrOverCingit, was suffi.
cient to support the cost bill and the
motion to re-tax should have been de-

COLLEGE NOTES.

The Lowell Society held its regular
meeting last night, and an interesting
program was rendered.
There will be only three days of
school next week, owing to Thanks
giving. The teachers evidently under
stand that it takes few days to re.
cuperate.
1t is rumored that there is to be a
Literary contest between the Weiser
Academy and the college in the near
future. A preliminary contest between
the two societies of the college will
probably take place first.
Miss Nellie Byers has been obliged
to quit school on account of i'll health,
but her numerous friends are in hopes
that she will be able to be with us
again after the holidays,
John Tucker of Lower Boise is COM
ing up next week to take business
course from Mrs. HOpf.
The Athletic Club practice daily, and
the young gentlemen are able to per-
form some astonishing feats.
Term examinations are swiftly CON-
ing, and everyone is beginning to
groan. The next thing will be to cram,
but as one person remarked "we've
managed to pull through heretofore,
maybe we can survive for a few more
terms"

Idaho City, Nov. l7.-Special to the
Statesman.
we the jury find the defendant, Her
mann c. st. Clair, guilty of murder in
the first degree"
Such is the result of the trial of the
slayer of John Decker. The verdict
was returned shortly after 8 O'Clock
Wednesday evening.
The case was given to the jury at 8
o'clock. The jury sent word to the
court little after o'clock that they
had agreed upon a verdict.
The sheriff sent men to the jail for
St. Clair. He arrived after some delay
and was brought into the court room.
1t was evidently with great exeEticn
that he kept up his nerve. His appear
ance had changed during the day, his
face had become cadaverous and his
eyes seemed sUnken. Nevertheless he
gazed steadfastiY at the judge while
the latter read the verdict of the jurV.
The court announced that sentence
would be pronounced on Saturday
morning.
Mr.. Workman, st. Glars attorney,
gave notice that he would file a motion
for new trial tomorrow morning.
The defense presented no testimony,
relying solely upon the affidavit filed
Monday in support of the motion for a
continuance,
STORY OF THE CRIME.
The crime for which st. Clair has
been convicted was committed about
two miles from Van Wyck in Long
valley on the night of October 22nd
last. The two men were travelling to
gether through the country. John
Decker, the murdered man, who is sup.
posed to have been from Spokane, paid
the bills that were incurred on the
road, and seemed to be the owner of
the team and other property.
The two men camped in a cabin on
the night of the tragedy. The next
day st. Clair appeared in Van Wyck
where he drank to excess ald displayed
considerable money. His actions soon
aroused suspicion, and on Sunday, the
gath, a search was made which resulted
in the finding of Decker's body. The
victim had been killed with two shots
in the head, apparently while he slept
The body had been wrapped in a
blanket and dragged behind the Wagon
into the hills. st. Glars arrest fol
lowed.
The murdered man was Unidentified
by two bills of sale found upon hi
person and by letter from his wife
written in Spokane. Singularl!
enough, no friend or relatives of thu
murdered man have appeared, though
every effort has been made to reacl
such as would naturally be interested
in the case. There has been belle
that Decker carried belt containing
large sum of money. but the correct
ness of this idea has never been salts
factorily established. When st. Clai
was arrested he had $3.50 on his persOl
and had spent $50 or $50 about Val
Wyck.
