dealt Holloway terrible blow, the sharp
blade splitting his skull and producing al
most instant death.
The negro made little effort to escape,

fatality attaches to the Holloway family

Buffalo Hump, Sept. 9th.
Entire City Jeopardized


The pet baby bear which has been
chained up in the lot back of Main
street and between Hall and State
streets, got loose last night about
g O'Clock and considerably bright
ened up the otherwise quiet and te-
dious Sabbath. He started in at
the NJ. & NJ. Cash store and a dig
nified old gentleman lightly vault
ed over the railing of the fence of
the bridge SO that the bear might
have the whole sidewalk. He
thought it best for the bear, it gets
out so seldom that these small at
tentions are due it. The wife of
one Of the merchants along the
street who had been out getting a
breath of fresh air, sprinted up the
street and shut her door so hard
that it Jared the old bridge to is
foundation. 1t was an exciting
moment for all who were on the
street; everybody held their breath
with excitement, except one inebri-
ated gentleman who stood in front
OF the Palace hotel, and his breath
was beyond his control. Finally
the fierce and terrible brute rushed
into Won Berg's saloon in a vain
search after Bear Pete who had
gone prospecting, and not finding
him took refuge under the table.
In the meantime about a dozen
dogs had taken an interest in the
affair and varied the quiet monot-
ony Of a Grangeville Sunday by
variously pitched howls. In the
midst of the excitement one "gent"
who had been calmly sleeping in a
chair in the saloon, awakened with
the remark as he looked at the
bear, "By heavens I've got EN-
again." At this point III. A. Conn,
the merchant, came in and calling
the savage brute by name, said:
"Come on, Nellie, and get some
candy" and the bear and Mr..
Conn proceeded to his store where
Miss Nellie ate candy until her
chain arrived. 1t is too bad that
. little tiny bear like that cannot
go out for minutes airing with
out starting up a whole lot of bear
talk. 1t took George Smith until
IL O'Clock to tell of the bears he
had not killed and the Press re-
porter stood on the corner with Of
beer j. j. Hogan and listened to
escapes for an hour,
n which the officer had almost par
icipated.

A. D. GREEN'S LAST WILL
The Findings in the Case Brought in
by the Jury.

In the hearing of the noncupa-
tive will of A. D. Green which has
been before jury and Judge J. X.
Vincent at Mt. Idaho for the past
three days the jury brought in the
following answers to the queries
and issues as follows:
1st. Were the words alleged to
have been spoken by A. d. Green,
deceased, purporting to contain
said A. D. Green's last will and
testament, spoken as the last will
and testament of said A. d. Green?
To which the jury brought in
the verdict: Yes.
End. Was said A. d. Green.
when said words were spoken. la
boring under a sense of impending
death and belief that he would die,
and was he at that time in ex-
tremis?
Answer. Yes.
Bird. Was said A. d. Green. at
the time said words were spoken.
of sound, rational and disposing
mind?
Answer. Yes.
4th. Were said words of said
A. d. Green reduced to writing
within 80 days after they were
spoken by said A. D. Green?
Answer. Yes.
What time elapsed after said
words were spoken?
Answer. About six hours.
Did A. D. Green have time and
opportunity on the 9th day of July,
1899, before his death to have di-
rected his will to have been made
in writing and subscribed by him
and properly witnessed?
Answer. Yes.
Did the deceased call upon three
persons there present to bear wit
ness that the words were his will or
words to that effect?
Answer. No.
At the time that said words were
spoken, if you find that they were
spoken by deceased, was he labor
ing under restraint or undue influ-
ence brought about by the influ-
ences then surrounding him?
Answer. No.
These were the issues and an
swers as brought in by the jury in
the case and upon which the Judge
will base his decision, he being the
Judge of the law, and the jury the
judge of the facts. Both sides pro-
posed issues which could not be
acceded to by the other, and as
they failed to agree on all of them.
the court finally settled them him.
