Bartlett Case Tried

The case of State VS.. Ned Bartlett was
called up in Probate Judge Reese's court
at 10 O'Clock this morning. The case is
one where assault with intent to commit
murder is alleged. The cause arose out
of an attack made by Ned Bartlett on the
person of John Lowery, an Indian, near
the Bartlett home on Tom Beal creek
last spring.
The defendant went to Lapwai and
plead guilty to simple assault before JUS
tice McGrath's court and paid small
fine. Later. Lowery came to Lewiston
and swore out warrant against Bartlett.
alleging assault with intent to kill. About
that time Mr.. Bartlett had business in
Oregon and did not learn of the charge
until few weeks ago when he came in
and gave himself to the sheriff.
The testimony of the states witnesses,
who were Lowery, Lee ROLAND and DIR.
Alley. tended to prove that Lowery was
attacked by Bartlett with neckyoke and
that he was in critical condition from
the effects of injuries received from the
assault.
The defendant is represented by Atior-
new Geo. w. Tannahill, who refused to
submit any evidence for the defense and
rested the case on motion to dismiss on
the ground that no intention to kill had
been proven. The case will be argued at
I o'clock tomorrow.

pale and dull when it is so easy

One of the best things
SCOTS Emulsion does is to
give rich blood to pale girls.
The result of regular doses
of SCOTS Emulsion is an in

FLOOD DAMAGES
AT KANSAS CITY

Kansas City. May 31.-with the
waters of the Kaw and Missouri river
nearly four feet above the disastrous
level of 1881, and their swollen tide
spread over twelve square miles of
the city and its suburbs, Kansas City
is tonight enduring the worst flood in
its history. In the valley os the Kaw
or Kansas river, between this city and
Kansas City, Kansas, a report has it
that number of lives have been lost.
One report says fourteen and another
fifty, but in the midst of demoraliza
'tiOn of traffic and the ordinary means
of communication, it is impossible to
verify these reports. The financial loss
has been increasing all day and bids
fair to continue. The heaviest loss is
at Armourdale. where the loss to the
packing industry and others is placed
at $2,500,000.
Argentine another suburb, has suf-
fered losses estimated at $500,000, and
other losses, which cannot now be es-
timated, will increase the total materi-
ally.
.Armourdale, with a population of
16, 900 people, is deserted, and its site
marked only by the tops Of buildings
and a number of fires.
Seven fires, believed to be chiefly
box cars burning. could be seen from
the bluffs tonight. There is some
danger that the flames will spread to
the partially submerged buildings, ad-
ding greatly to the already heavy loss.
The fires started by the intrusion of
the flood into lime house.
The refugees from Armourdale for
the most part are huddled together in
the immense auditorium of the Con-
vention hall, although several hundred
found havens with friends in more for
tunate parts of the city. All bridges
over the Kaw river are down, and the
only communication with Armourdale
is by boat.
Kansas City is tonight without a
water supply, the flood having disabled
the pumping station, and the utmost
care is taken that no fires shall break
out Only one street car line in the
city is running tonight. owing to the
disabling of the power plants by the
flood.
Not train has gone out Of the city
except East to-day.
