FORCES DEATH.
Many Indications Point
to Deliberate Suicide.
Was Well Acquainted With Use and
Effect of Gas,

Although Coroner II. q. LebermaD
has made no official statement rela-
tive to the cnse, there are some rea-
sons for the belief that the death Of
NJ. d. Force, at the Empire House,
Sunday, was premeditafed.
People who We're acquainted with
the unfortunate man claim, that he
was well acquainted with the use and
knew full well the consequences of
escaping gas. 1t is claimed that Mr..
Force had spent great deal of his
time in the gas belt in the western
part of the state, where he was en-
gagged at his trade of Il contractor.
II is further claimed that the dead
man had domestic trouble.

learn way of committing murder
which would leave hut little trace of
crime having been committed. IT is
promised that the testimony tomorrow

THIEVES
Tried to Steal Two
Horses Last Week
From Stow Township Farmer, But
Their Plans Were FoiIed.

Last Thursday night when Arthur
Wetmore, of Stow, returned home
from a small trip, and started to put
his horse in the stable, he noticed two
of his other horses standing near the
barn. One was harnessed and tho
other had bride on it,
Every indication was that thieves
had just been preparing to leave with
the team of horses when Mr.. Wetmore
returned in time to thwart their plans.
1t is thought that the intention of the
would-be thieves was TO hitch the har-
uessed horse to milk wagon that
stood near the stable.
The marauders left n horse blanket
behind, when they, ran away.

Jimmy Freedman-A drummer for a

firm stating that it was raining aud snow

poor. happened to see the letter that
came back tn him, il was something on
this line: 1--WE don't want no weather

you do with the horse and what became
OF the buggy? There are also frequent
charges for sleeping and billiards. Don't
buy no more billiards for us as we are
well supplied already, and you had bet

G. NJ. Hauser-Another attem pt
should be made to interest the different

of Pythiss throughout Washington to at

companies are now quite we'll drilled
having participated in competitive

about $500 can be raised and say 800
given to each company coming to help
defray their expenses and the fair COM
mission induced to put up trophy OF
some kind to go to the company scoring
the highest points, am sure at least
five companies will come here and enter,
judging from conversation had with the
| officers while at Spokane. 1t would be
an attraction that would take we'll be-
sides swelling the attendance and the
gate receipts.
