A Boise special says: A man,

mans wife to the bits of his bride
and thus paraded them through
the country, lies dead at Meadows,
in Washington county, and the
husband is in the Jail at Weisel
on Il charge of numbering him
The dead man is George Rice; his
slayer is Enos Smith.
Until a few week ago the two
men were suitors for the hand o
Miss Della Clark, a belle of tina
neighborhood. The suits seemed
evenly balanced for a time, bu'
Smith finally triumphed and mar
ried the girl. Rice had secured
photographs of the young woman
and he proceeded to even up mat
tiers by tieing the pictures to hi
horses bits and thus going abou'
the country. He went into thu
town of Meadows one day las
week with the pictures thus dis
played. Smith heard of it ant
finding the horse, took the pic
lures away.
When Rice heard what he ha'
done, he swore vengence and pro
ceeded to hunt Smith up. Tn
men met in a saloon and agreed t
90 out back and settle the matter
In a few moments there was a sho
and the men who rushed out foun'
Rice lying dead with a bulle
through his heart, while Smit
stood over him with a smokln
pistol. 1t is not known whethe
or not Rice was armed.

GEORGE RICE MURDERED
An Idaho County Man Shot
and Killed at Little Salmon
Meadows.

Salmon Meadows, Sept. IS, 1898.
Editor FREE PREss.-Being ac-
quainted with you and the people
in your vicinity, I deem it my
place to give you an accurate
account Of the murder OF
n of our estimable friends,
George Rice. He was shot and
killed by one Enos Smith the 18th
day of September, at 6 O'Clock in
the evening in the new town of
Meadows, back of Jones & Skogsaas
barn. There we're two eye-wit-
nesses to the shooting. They met
on the walk and Rice called Smith
to one side to have a talk with
him about his stealing two rosettes
out of his riding bride, n con
tanning a picture of his, Smiths
wife. A few words passed between
them and Rice struck Smith in
the mouth. Smith drew back a
few steps, drawing his gun, and
without a word shot Rice, killing
him almost instantly. The bal
passed through his arm above the
elbow and entered the body just
under the arm, and ranging
through his body came to the sur
face at the top of his right shout
der. The weapon used was a 3S
calibre, double acting, Colts revol
yer. As Rice saw Smith draw hi
gun he threw up his left arm ant
leaned back. The bullet mus
have passed through his heart, a
he only staggered or walked 2
feet after being shot. He onl
said Oh! Oh! George, come her
quick. The remark being mad
to his travelling companion, Mi
George smith of Warrens
George Smith and one VIM. Rock
were the only eye-witnesses Of til
fatal shot. Word was sent to h
relatives at Freedom, on Saline
river, but not in time for them
attend his funeral. A prayer al
singing was offered at the hou'
and grave. Yours truly,
CHAs. B. HAYES.

Il known. Gen. Pando, next In COM
mand. is along the line Of the Jucero-
Moron trocha. II Gomez and Caiixto
Garcia were willing to treat for anything
short Of independence. Pando's presence
would be convenient. AS the Military
Commander, it Is inconvenient, for he
must meet the responsibility of situa-
tion which finds the insurgents In Puer-
to Principe province ready to cross the
trachas and take part in the march west
ward.
ACTIVE INSURGENTS
HAVANA, March 21.-Generals Pando
and Saliedo, 1t is announced at the Pal
ACE today, continue advancing with con-
siderable forces of all arms, towards
Puerto Principe.
The insurgents on Saturday night
|dynamited the iron railroad bridge near
Madruga, province of Matanxas, partly
destroying the structure, and last night
they destroyed with dynamite a culvert
between Robles and Madruga.
CLEARED FOR ALASKA
WILMINGTON, Del, March 21.-The
steamer Laurada of filibuster fame
which cleared from Philadelphia for
Alaska with cargo Of 1000 tons of coal,
passed the Delaware Capes Sunday and
there ia reason to believe that the ves-
sci Is bound on another expedition to
Cuba.
Since her last Cuban venture the Lau-
rada has had her machinery thorough
ly overhauled and she has received new
boilers which will doubtless increase her
speed. After leaving the yards she was
repainted at Camden and new deck
houses for passengers built.
When anchored in the Delaware River
the Laurada was closely watched by
Spanish spies who believe that the ves-
sci will take on another cargo of arms
for Cuba at some point on the coast.
1t is rumored here that the munitions
of war to be sent on this expedition are
now In New York.
ABOUT TO ACT
CONCORD, N. H.. March Ex-senator
VIM. e. Chandler. in an editorial in the

dent Mckinley is about to take action
in the~name of the United States to re-
lieve the famine and sickness in Cuba.
Food and medicine and clothing" he
says, given by the generous people Of
the United States will be sent with the
approval of Spain If she consents: or will
be carried by American sailors and SOL
diers without that approval, IL Spain
does not consent.
"The end of starvation and torture is
near at hand.
EVERY humane person in this whole
land should sustain and bless the Presi-
dent in his coming proclamation, which
is to cause the name Of William McKin-
ley to be held in sacred reverence by the
Cuban generations as long az will be
revered the name Of Abraham Lincoln
by the colored race In America"
