Poeatello, Ida, Aug. 11.-For many
Years the wild "cayuses1 that have
roamed at viii on the great Nez Perez
reservation and in the adjacent country
IN north Idaho have been an almost
unbearable nuisance. They have broken
into the enclosures of settlers. and
trampled down their growing crops, and
have driven other stock from the public
ranges. Stock men and settlers have
shot them down by the hundreds. but
they have gone on increasing in num-
bers. Since the opening of the reser-
walton the country has settled I'D rap
idly, and these Vagrant herds have. es-
oecialiv this season. done a vast
amount of damage among the ranches
in that section.
These degenerate horses were aban-
doned years ago by their Indian own
efs. They are ugly, stunted little ami
mails, and roam about in large herds,
ana are as wild as antelopeS. Their
watering places have been fenced up,
but it is hard to divert them from the
runways Of q life time. They brsak down

the wild ponies are killed or badly in

Each herd of these wild horses is led
by a patriarch stallion. who holds his
command with discipline that would
be q credit to military tactics. The herds
range on the hills far from water. seek
ing the springs only once aor twice a
week. Their runs are sometimes as far
as ten miles. The stallion drives the
herd to water, following in their flying
wake and driving every tagging beast
with hoof and teeth, pushing them at
g high rate Of speed, much after the
manner cf bEffaloes.
Mad with thirst and blinded with

sCHoFIELD's MURDER.
No Doubt But the Prisoners Will Be
Held to Answer.


San Jose Cal, Aug. 1S.-Sheriff Lyn-
don viii return from Santa Cruz county
this afternoon. At mis- office it is stated
that his trip has thrown no new light
on the Schofield case, although the au-
thorities say they feel confident of hold
ing the three prisoners to answer.
The statement of DR.. Higgins is ex-
ceedingly damaging 70 their story of
Schofield's death at $3.50 Saturday
morning. 1t is known that Friday
night was unusually cool for the sea-
son, yet when the body of Schofield
was found by those who first reached
the ranch, the odor of decomposition
was exceedingly offensive. Several rep
utable people say that the flesh was
turning black, and that rigor mortis
was certainly passing of before noon.
Medical men say that relaxation from
the rigor of death does not come until
the tissues are beginning to be much
affected by decomposition. They also
state that the condition of the body as
described would not occur until Is to
"a hours after death, depending on the
state of health of deceased's tempera-
ture and climatic conditions.
Mrs. Schofield is growing exceedingly
nervous. Her attorney has visited her
and notified her that she must cease
talking. under threats of abandoning
the case. While all the prisoners tell
practically the same story originally
given out, it is generally believed that
Irving Mann has only such knowledge
as might come to him after the fact,
and that butcher and Mrs. Schofield,
if any, have knowledge prior to SchO-
fields death. Opinion differs as to
whether they committed the deed or

I FORGIVE TIE ASSASSIN. !"
SONORA CANovAs' WORDS AT
HER HUSBANDS FUNERAL.
Touching and Solemn Ceremonies as
the Remains of the Premier Were
Laid In the Family Vault at st.
Isidone Cemetery.

Madrid. Aug. 1S-The funeral of Sc.
nor Canovas Del Castillo today was q
most touching and solemn ceremony
All the troops of the garrison lined
the route along which the cortege
moved; the flags were lowered and the
public buildings, embassies. consulates
and clubs were heavily draped with
Grape.
More than a thousand wreaths were
deposited in the death chamber. A
salvo Of artillery announced the start
ing of the funeral procession, which
moved slowly through an enormous
crowd, in which all heads were barred
and many eyes were weeping.
4 peculiarly poignant scene ensued
as the Duke of Solomayor, Marshal
Martinez Campos, Marquis Paso de la
Merrsed and the other pail bearers
lifted the coffin. Sonora CanovaS, in a
clear, firm tone, said:
Il desire that all should know 1 for
give the assassin. 1t is the greatest
sacrifice I can make, but 1 make it for
the sake of what I know of my hus-
bands great heart
Through the entire distance between
the death chamber and the church the
road was strewn with flowers and lau-
rels.
Senior Sagasta headed the cortege,
which was formed of militia, deputies,
senator's, generals, admirals and dele
cations representing all the principal
public bodies. The wreath of the queen
regent rested on the coffin, and other
floral tributes were carried in special
carriages
All the shops in the city were closed
and a very large proportion of the pop
ulace that thronged the streets APP
peared in mourning garb. The entire
garrison marched past the coffin and
the ceremonies lasted froms4 until 7:3O
p. m The remains of Senior Canovas

Folsom. Cal, Aug. 1S.-With a smile
on his lips, James Berry, the negro
who murdered his wife at Modesto on
May 10, plunged to death through the
trap door of the gallows at 10 o'clock
this morning. Berry died game. AL
most up to the moment when he was
to march to the gallcws, Berry was in
good spirits. and his merry laughter
was heard ringing through the corri-
doris OF the big building. Berry refused
TO accept consolation from the prison
chaplain, and declined to listen to the
reading of the warrant, telling Warden
Aull he would save him the trouble. He
asked the warden to telegraph his
mother that ne died happy. and would
meet her on the other shore. Berry
walked brislzly TO the gallows and

The patient motiOned for a writing
