Mrs, Kensler Found Guilty.

The jury in the case of Mrs
Kensler, charged with the murder
of her husband returned a verdict
of murder in the second degree.
The state closed its case at noon
Saturday. The evidence of the
defense was very brief and ended at
2:45. The arguments consumed
from 3 to 8 80 and the case was
submitted to the jury at 8 o'clock.
This closes one of the most SEN
salional murder cases in the history
of the state. In a comparatively
short time Alfred Freel has been
condemned to death and Mrs. Ken
sler has been doomed to term in
the penitentiary.
Each was charged with the came
crime, the murder of John kensler
at bis ranch near Glenn's Ferry on
October 18th last, and each had
made statements declaring the other
the guilty party.
Mrs. Kensler's protestations OF
innocence awaited her naught, for
she failed to satisfactorily show
Why her lips had remained sealed
with the knowledge in her posses.
sion that the body of her husband
laid buried in the irrigation ditch
near the spot where be was shot to
death while he slept.
The evidence was practically the
same as in the Freel case.
1t is said that Freel was not the
least affected by the verdict in bis
case. He made the joking remark
to some of his fellow prisoners lin
substance) to be careful add not
get it in the neck as he did.
Lawyer E. M. Wolfe says the
defense will ask for new trial Of the
Freel case and if not granted will
take an appeal to the supreme court,
where he thinks they will have
sure thing on saving his clients
neck.

usual custom, extends a cordial in
vitation to the public to attend tn

The croquet and lawn tenni

The season is ut hand when the
pleasure-seekers' thoughts are tarn
ing towards seeking a cool, seques
tered spot at some mountain resort
where they can pass the sultry sea
son in delightful seclusion away
from the heat and dust Of their city
homes.
To all those in quest of both
health and pleasure, there is not q
more desirable summer resort in
the Great West than the Guyer Hot
Sulphur Springs.
The hotel affords modern accom-
modations, and there are coy cot
tages for those guests who prefer to
be secluded, where they can enjoy
communion with the stars and in
hale the cool, health-laden ozone of
the pine-covered mountains which
makes sleep dream of bliss.
The medicinal properties of the
waters justly entitle it to be termed
The Carlsbad of Idaho" and the
scenery rivals that of Switzerland
in point of sublimity and grandeur.
The artists brush could not depict
4 lovelier or more romantic scene
than that which surrounds the
Guyer Hot Springs.
Situated in q deep gorge, with
iofty mountains towering above,
and ripping, limpid streams toss
ng and tumbling down over the
messy boulders, with it's path
'ringed on either side by urnbrage-
'us pines, the twining wild grape
zines and myriads of lovely flowers
If every hue and shade.
The hot sulphur water, impreg-
lated with healing and health-giv-
ng properties gushes out from the
sides. and at its base
lows the clear, limpid waters of
tream that abounds in brook trout.
When the guests wish to indulge
II the sport Of fishing they can do
o without having to 60 beyond the
lotel grounds.
There is a commodious plunge,
lied with the medicinal sulphur
water, heated at an agreeable tenn
'erature, also hot and cold tub
'aths.
The season on Wood River is |
bout month earlier than last year,
nd the weather lie simply perfect.
The days are warm enough to be
greeable, while the nights and
arly mornings are cold and invig-
rating.
For glorious climate, for medi.
inal waters, for mountain climbing,
'r fishing, for hunting and for
'vely drives, this section of the
orld has few rivals and in its
of attractions there is
o place that equals it.
