to Shoot

Central, Grant county, in the office OF
justice OF the peace, Joseph Crowley,

ing when Park commenced firing at
Wiley.
Wiley stood up, turned halt around,
pulling his six shooter as he did so, and
returned the fire. Several shots were
fired by both, as we'll as others in the
room, and in all some twelve or fifteen
bullets were discharged. One OF the
bullets entered Parks right side. coming
out OF the LETT side opposite the region
OF the heart. The wou oded man fell to
the floor, where he was picked up by
friends and made as com Portable as pos
sible. The wound was fatal, however,
and he expired in about twenty five
minutes.

Nome is Again Lawless.

Seattle. Wash. May 22.-Advices from
Nome, Alaska, say there is considerable
lawlessness because Of the fact that the
town was not able to incorporate and be-
cause of the opposition Of gamblers and
their kind.
The soldiers were withdrawn and sub
scriptions had been taken up by the
chamber OF commerce to the amount OF
$4,000. to pay special deputy marshals
to protect life and property. After one
month no money could be collected and
the deputy marshals we're discharged
and 30 the town was thrown over to the
tender mercies of thieves and others.

dangers the health Of the people.
Every year east e street residents have
to suffer the annoyance caused by over
flowing vaults. 1t lasts usually about six
weeks. Objections made to health Of.
ficials in the past have been as water
upon ducks. That portion of the city
should have at least that much care, as
it has neither sidewalks. sewers nor
lights. Aside from this particular divi.
sion Of the city other sections need
cleansing. Itmay be that the financial
side Of the proposition is too high, but
the protection of the health Of the com-
munity is worth something, aud it is the
! duty Of the council to give such protec.
tion as far as possible.

SAN Francisco, May 15.-Owing to
the very serious character Of Mrs. Nc.
Kinley's illness, the president today
definitely decided to abandon his con.
templated northwestern tour and to re-
turn to Washington direct as soon as
Mrs. Mckinley is able to stand the
journey. The gravity of Mrs. McKinley's
condition had been known to the mem.
bers of the presidents immediate party
tor severafdays, but had been concealed
in the belief that she would rally, but
her present illness has been attended
with entirely new complications which
have not yielded to treatment and the
president concluded this morning that it
was time the public should be apprised
Of the true situation.
The bulletin which Secretary Cortelyou
gave to the Associated Press this morn
ing announcing the abandonment of the
trip, coupled with another announcement
that Mrs. McKinley's condition since
last night was better in some respects but
worse in others, prepared the way for the
bulletin issued two hours later that DR..
Henry Gibbons, celebrated physician
of San Francisco, had been called in
consultation with Drs Hirschfelder and
Rixey. DR.. Gibbons has a reputation
here for his skill in the treatment Of
bowel disorders.
Her extreme weakness has been the
most alarming feature Of her condition.
Her vitality has been at low ebb and
she has seldom spoken to those about
her
Except for briet half hour this after
noon when he yielded to the entreaties Of
those about him and went out for drive.
the president has remained steadfastly at
Mrs. Nc Kinley's bedside.
Just how soon Mrs. Mckinley will be
able to travel is question that no one
can answer just now. II may be necessary
for her to remain here longer than next
Monday, when the party was originally
scheduled to leave. The trip east will
be made by the most direct route,
probably the Union Pacific. No stopa
will be made, and it is expected that the
trip can be made in five days.
The members Of the cabinet are very
apprehensive that Mrs Mckinley will
not rally. Her physicians have not yet
been able to check the bowel trouble and
her enfeebled condition initiates against
her. But at the Scott residence at this
hour it was stated that there was no i'm.
mediate danger, although change for
the worse would not be unexpected.
After consultation tonight DR.. Rizey and
DR.. Hirschfelder remained in attendance.

THE sun do move" So does the grand
little city Of Lewiston. II goes forward
every year and ere we know it a city Of
large proportion will grace the quiet
valley at the junction Of the Snake and
Clearwater rivers.
For years there was plenty Of room for
all needs of commercial and social life
in the narrow strip bounded on the north
by the Clearwater river and on the
south by the hill, With the advent Of
the railroad, two years ago, all this has
changed. Now the larger part of Lewis
toms population and its finest homes are
on the hill, once held to be a worthless
piece Of land. The present season has
seen the addition to this section Of I
number Of handsome homes and the i'm
provement of some already there.
Butwith this rapid change the business
district at the base Of the hill has also
more than kept pace. The uusightly
shacks that served the commercial frms
well in pioneer days have been gradually
re-placed by more modern buildings to
accommodate the increasing trade. The
removal Of the shacks has also lessened
the chances for serious confiagration.
The macadamizing Of several blocks ON
Main street added much to the beauty Of
the city and stands in great contrast to
the muddy and filthy streets intefsecting
it. But in time these. too. will have
given place to something infinitely better,
as Lewiston is going forward.
The number of buildings to be erected
this year will add at least s. So, 900 to the
