Charged with Rape.

Yesterday Lee Summers, farmer aged
az years, was brought before Justice of
the Peace l.. L. Setter at Peck, Idaho,
charged with the crime of rape on the
person of Miss Lizzie Dow, aged II years
and daughter of Walker Dow, farmer
near Melrose. The defendant plead not
guilty and was bound over until the next
regular term of court. The prisoner was
brought to the city last night by Con-
stable Joe Porter and lodged in Jail. The
circumstances connected with the case
are somewhat meagre, and owing to the
prominence of the parties connected very
little information can be obtained.
When seen by TELLER reporter, today
the prisoner stated that he had lived on
his homestead, near Melrose for four years
and had been keeping company with the
young lady for the past year, and that
his intention was none other than hon
orable, and that he would bring witness
es to prove his innocence Of the whole
affair; he said further that he had signi
fed his intention Of marrying the young
lady and that was in accordance with
her views and that they had loved each
other, and he knew Of no reason why the
charge should be brought against him
It is alleged that the girls father, aftei
consulting physicion. preferred the
charge against the young man.
The prisoner appears to be confden,
that he will be able to sustain his plea o
not guilty when the case comes to trial
