STORY OF THE KILLING
OF FRANK MARHAR
Inquiry Into the Murder Begun Before a
Coroner's Jury = Witnesses Tes-
tify Through Interpreters.

Great Falls, Oct. 31.-The inquest on
the body of Frank Marhar, the Aus
trian who was killed on Sunday morn
ing at Boston Heights, was commenced
this morning at the undertaking es-
tablishment of George Berthold The
jury viewed the body and found, be-
sides the wound in the neck, various
other cuts on the head. The body was
untouched.
Anton Smereka, the first witness,
gave his testimony with the help of
two interpreters. He said that he and
his wife and Frank Koncilga and his
wife were in their sitting room when
zupanichich and Marian came to visit
them. They came to his house about
9 o'clock on Saturday evening. When
Semereka went to bed he says that Zu-
panichich and Marhar We're sitting by
the table talking peaceably. He gave
them each bottle of beer. They were
feeling pretty good, hut We're not drunk.
He left the room and went to bed and
to sleep in the next room. He was
awakened about o'clock in the morn
ing by the sound of breaking glass and
went into the sitting room. There he
found the others. Marian was bleed
ing from a cut in the neck and was
trying to tie a handkerchief about it,
while zupanichich had cut on his lip
and one on his hand. Koncilga had
hold Of Zupanichich and was trying to
keep him away from Marhar, who was
trying to push Zupanichch out of the
door. Somebody suggested that a dec
tor had better be called, and witness
went to the grocery store, where there
was a telephone. Whether or not he
'phoned was not explained. When he
got back to the house there was no
one there and he went to bed In the
morning witness went out to the shack
in the rear and saw Zupanichich there
in bed. He did not tell him that Mar
har was dead. as he did not know it
himself until 8 o'clock. Witness went
back to his house after asking Zupan-
ichich where his partner was. He saw
Iupanichich leave the shack at about
Z o'clock and go toward town.
Through the first interpreter witness
was made to say that Koncilga was in
the shack with Zupanichch in the
morning when witness went there, but
koncilga, who seems to understand
English and talk it, too, when he wants
to. said that the interpreter had got
things all wrong, not being able to
prefer had to be sent for. but this por-
ton of the testimony had not been
reached when an adjournment was
taken.
The man who did the killing has not
yet been apprehended, although a close
search is being made for him by all the
officers. He was seen about $50 yes
terday afternoon near Rainbow Falls
and the officers expect to catch him

vette. Two things are essential--first.
it must have a pleasant fruity flavor
df little piquant so much the better).
and, second, it must not make too
heavy a drain upon his purse.
Out of these conditions, aided by the
genius of some unknown mixer of
drinks in Paris, was evolved "piquette,"
a sparkling. fruity beverage, composed
of dried apples, raisins and water, al
lowed to stand until fermentation
takes place and then bottled, with the
addition of a little sugar or served di-
rectly from the cask. Two cents a
glass is the ordinary charge at the bu-
vette for this spicy and as a rule harm
less beverage. A franc GO cents will
furnish a man treat which is good
for two hours sitting at the buvette,
but hardly develops enough alcoholic
influence to perceptibly reduce the or
binary liveliness of the tongue.
The following is the recipe given me
for its preparation by one of the lead
ing manufacturers of Bordeaux: Five
pounds Of dried apples and five gallons
of water. Put in an open cask and let
stand for three days. Bottle with a
half teaspoonful of sugar and bit Of
cinnamon in each bottle. Vary the fla
vor to suit the taste.
1t is really a very pleasant summer
beverage, and if made in the United
States might take the place of some Of
our mysterious decoctions with decided
advantage to health. The special Amer
lean interest in piquette. however, is
found at present in the fact that the
dried apples from which it is made are
imported from the United States In
1898 50,000,0 600 gallons of this piquant
beverage We're consumed in France,
against $4,000, 900 in 1897.

SMOTHERED TO DEATH.
Frank Riley Meets an Untimely Death a
the Smelters.

Great Falls, Oct. 31-Last night at
about II o'clock Frank Riley, who
works in the concentration plant, was
smothered to death in the ore bins by
the dumping of a carload of ore on top
of him while he was at work under
meath. He was picking in the ore bins
when the accident occurred and his
body was not discovered and nothing
was known of the occurrence until
about eight minutes later. Death must
have been caused by suffocation. There
were no bones broken.
The way the accident was discovered
was in it's way curious. None of the
employees knew of Riley's disappear
ance until one Of the workmen, who
was attending to the door of the bin
that feeds the ore crusher, saw hat
come through the chute, whereupon he
exclaimed: Here's a hat; I'll find a
man next" A minute later shoe came
through the chute, and then it dawned
upon the workman that one of his fell
lows had probably met with an acct
dent. Investigation showed this to be
a fact and a search was made, result
ing in the discovery of Riley's dead
body.
1t is the custom of the men above who
superintend the unloading or DUMPING
of the ore to give a warning signal to
those below. Whether this signal was
given or not no one seemed to know,
and it will probably require the tes-
timony at the coroner's inquest to de-
termine.
The body was taken to Bertholds UNI
dertaSing rooms, where it now lies
and an inquest will probably be held
as soon as the Marian inquest is out
of the way.
Deceased leaves a wife and a child
living at Boston Heights. He was g
brother in-law of j.. A. Kenkel.
