Whereas, 1t has pleased our Heaven
ly Father, in His all-wise providence,
to let the tireless reader, Death, enter

Coen, and take therefrom the husband
and father and transplant him to our
home above; therefore be it
Resolved, That we, the members OF
Cloutman w. r. c, extend to her, in
her hour of trouble and loneliness, OH
most sincere and grateful sympathy
and we hope that she may live that
they may be reunited in the better
world above, where paintings are I'M

coRoNER's JURY IN SESSION.
Investigating Cause of Death of Nela
NeleOn I

Coroner c. G.. Powell empaneled a
jury this afternoon composed of Jo-
seph Hedrick, L.. o. johnson and Ed
Erwin, to inquire into the cause of
death of Nels Nelson, who, it is sup
posed, committed suicide some time
during Tuesday night. Joe Jaques
testified that he and U. S. Grant pass
ed up the river in boat near the
place where the body was found, about
5 o'clock in the morning. At that time
the view from the boat to the place
where the body was found was unob-
structed, but it was just getting day
light and he might not have seen it.
Mr.. jacques gave it as his opinion that
the body was not there at the time,
but was not sure! No evidence has
been given so far that would tend ITO
show that any person other than the
deceased had anything to do with his
death, yet one thing seems queer to
the person with but little medical
knowledge, and that is that the face
was very white and not discolored, as
is usual with people who strangle to
death. This, however, may not be un-
| usual.

really intended to sell the outfit. At
any rate Rand is free man. 1t is
said that he intends to marry an Of
tumwa girl in the near future.
A jury is being empaneled this after
