issd affair took Place at His Home
Near Hera Sunday-Aeckncr Was an
Old and Respected Resident OF This
Section.

The people of Rendrick and vicinity
were very much startled Monday
morning to hear of the suicide on Sum
day evening of Fred Heckn ner, one of
the oldest and best known citizens of
the Potlatch.
All of the circumstances point to a
deliberately planned and executed
suicide on his part. All of the family
were absent at the time, Mrs. Heckner
and a daugh ter haying gone for drive
while other members of the family
weie calling as y neighbor's near by.
The ilrst to discover the dead man was
Mrs. heckner, who. returning from
her drive and opeejng the kitchen
door, saw the form OF her husband ly-
ing prostrote on The floor, face down.
ward, Greatly startled and terrified,
she rushed forward anNS turning him
over discovered that he was dead, hav-
>dhg died perhaps half-hour be-
Sfore her arrival. At his feet was
loaded shot gun already cooked with
The nuzzle pointing toward his head.
On the window was bottle Of stych-
nine and a jar Of fruit and teaspoon,
showing that Mr.. Heekner had prob
ably taken the poison with the inten.
ton of shooting himself with the gun
if the poison had failed to work.
There ars various reasons advanced
as to the cause of the suicide, some
attributing 1t financial troubles, it be-
ing reported that he had recently re-
ceived word from the State Land
board that some school land which he
be9ght several years ago had been
forfeited on account of non.payment
Others say that his mind was distract
ed by the sad killing Of his son a
couple of years ago by companion
while out hunting, he being taken for
bear. Mr. Heckner was considered
one of tho most substantial citizens
of the Potlatch, and hia uutimely
death will be regretted by all.

IN RE TRANSFERS.

Judge Lyle Dickey has sued the
Honolulu Rapid Transit and Land COM
pany for hve cents and 800 damages
The suit is brought to test the construc-
ton of the companys charter relating
to the issuance of transfers. Dickey
on April boarded a King street car at
KeeaumOku and at the corner of Nc
Gully street asked for transfer to the
Punahou car going thence toward
Wilder avenue. This was rfused as the
company does not issue transfers at
this point 10 go in that direction. He
thereupon left the King street car and
boarded the other and of course was
obliged to pay another fare. 1t is to
recover this fare and damages that the
suit is brought. He claims that under
it's charter the company is obliged to
issue transfers at all connecting points.
The company claims it is not obliged to
issue transfers that would enable "A
passenger to make a round trip and
keep on riding all day for one fare. The
case is set for trial before Judge Will
cox April II at l:30 O'clock.

FOUL MURDER.

In an alteration at Ada early on
the morning of July 4th, Alfred
Warren, of Twin Lakes this reser-
walton, was struck on the back of
the head and neck and instantly
killed.
From the several reports, many
of them from eye witnesses OF the
foul crime, the conclusions arrived
at are to the effect that some time
during the night of July Bird. and
the morning of the 4th, party OF
two or three drunken mixed-bioods
from the Pembina reservation.
were in the vicinity of the tents.
occupied by Warren and others,
and indulging in drunken debauch-
cry and otherwise disturbing the
rest and peace of the slumbering
occupants of the tented village.
Finally Warren came out OF the
tent and kindly requested the row.
dies to be more peaceful or move
away from the vicinity of his tent.
an alteration, followed by scuf-
file, in which two of the rowdies
fell on Warren and while he was
bravely fighting his two antagon-
lists off, the third rowdy OF the
party, with club or billy, treach'
erously stole up behind and dealt
him q death blow on the head and
neck killing him instantly.
The Ada authorities made pas
sive investigation of the most out
rageous crime and rendered gen.
eral verdict that the death of the
victim was caused by the hand
of an unknown person or persons,
the same being of his (Warren's)
party" etc.
On the receipt of this decision,
the citizens of this village held an
indignation meeting and proceeded
in body to the agency Office and
interviewed U. S. Indian Agent
Simon Micheletand makinga for
NAL request that steps be at once
taken looking to searching IN
yestigation Of this most helnous
crime and, to the end, that the
dastardly murder of Alfred War
rem be avenged.
We hear that Agent Michelet
has taken steps and is making q
thorough investigation OF this ter
rible murder and it is probable he
will succeed in soon running the
guilty wretch to earth.
