Killed by His Companion.

BOISE, Idaho, June ia Caldwell
special to the Statesman says: A sad &C
cident occurred here this afternoon, by
which Fred Branbaugh, son of Judge
Branbaugh lost his life. A young man
named Herbert A. Young was handling a
rifle. 1t was discharged, and the ball
struck Branbaugh i'll the face on the right
side of the nose and passed out the left
ear, which was en- rely torn away. The
wounded lad fell to the floor. Everything
possible was done for him, but he died in
about half an hour. Deceased was Io
years old. Young is about the same age.
The latter was entirely overcome by the
accident, and for a time it was feared he
would die. A coroner's inquest was held
and later, after taking the testimony of
the witnesses, the jury returned a YER
dict generating the young man who was
the unfortunate cause of the tragedy.

Perhaps there is no more cnaracuers
istic sight in Mexico than the so called
"evangelistas" who ply their trade in
the Plazuela de Belem and the Plaque
la of Santo domingo. Those who oper-
ate in the former spot make speciality
of writing letters to the inmates of the
prison for their illiterate relatives on
the outside, but the ''evangelistas" who
may be seen any day in the Plazuela of
Santo Domingo do a general business.
They write love letters, Matchmaking
letters and all sorts of letters for those
who do not know how to write at IA
rate Of 3, 6, 8 or more cents, according
to the length of the missive. They
also undertake without extra charge to
write the address on the envelope and
to attach the required stamp, but for
the latter they make an extra charge
of cent. 1t is hardly necessary to
state that only very ignorant people,
who are totally unacquainted even
with the simple formalities of mailing
letter in addition to not knowing
how to write, have recourse to the
evangelistas for stamps. = Mexican
