A writer from Grouse creek sends
the following story to the Weiser Sig
nal regarding the murder of L. n. VAIN
ana Chris Long by Rudolph Wetter,
near Warrens, Idaho:
The greatest excitement prevails
here today over the killing of the old
man VAIN. of Weiser. and Mr.. Long
of Spokane Both were shot and in
stantly killed by Bob Wetter. Two
more men, Jack Glare and Mr. Camp
bell of Spokane, saved their lives by
flight. 1t appears that there was some
trouble over a mine at the foot of War
Eagle mountain. WHICH is two miles
north of the Golden Rule mine. This
trouble started last summer and Wetter
had brOOded over it and made threats
as to what he would do. but no fresh
trouble coming up, the others We're

lived in another cabin. Tuesday eve
ming Wetter took his Winchester and
started out toward the other camp.
He had been drinking a little during
the day. and after he was gone a few
minutes, Campbell felt uneasy and
started after him. When only short
distance he heard shot, and in about
three minutes another one. He ran as
fast as he could and When ne arrived
at the camp he found Mr.. VAIN lying
by the camp fire dead-shOt in the
back. He went inside the cabin and

found Long in bed dead, shot through
the head Both were dead and the
camp deserted. AS Wetter had said he
would do both Glare and himself
Campbell thought he was after Glare
and he took & the brush. He went to
the SaWmill where the Matthias boys
were at work and they started out to
find Glare and give the alarm. They
found Glare and went with him to the
Golden Rule. In few minutes Wetter
came up with mis- gun in his hand and
told what he had done and said he
would get the other two yet. He ex-
pressed no regrets for what he had
done, but went to Hubbard's saloon
guard and this morning Jim Stevens
and Cal Hubbard started with him to
early this morning to look after the
dead men and to hunt for the boy.

when he was shot: instant flight was
all that saved Glare. He says he cali
ed to the boy to run, but did not see in
what direction he went. and as he did
not answer them when they called
they supposed he thought it was Wet
ter calling. The boy was found in the
brush very weak from loss of blood.
He was taken to Resort. where he
could receive medical attention.

OVER SEVEN THOUSAND.
Amount of Request Made to Whitman
by Priscilla Livermore.

Whitman college will probably get
from $1,000 to $4,000 in all from the
estate of Priscilla l.. Livermore. Word
lust received says that the estate is
appraised at $4,000. In specific be-
quests there are given away in all
81 600. which Includes the $4,000 given
directly to Whitman. The balance will
be divided equally between Whitman
college. the town of North BroOkfield
for nigh school library and Pleasant
Hall academy in Tennessee. Miss
Livermore is an entire stranger to the
college authorities. No amount of
searching of the former lists of its
benefactors reveals any trace of her
name.

A Race for a Life.

Dealing with life and death in the
play now on at LaVern's Park, is moth
ing to the william in the piece. In a
heartless manner he strikes right and
left at those whom ne would rid him
self of. But in the finish of The Race
for a Life" he loses his own, which
greatly satisfies the audience. The
entire bill this week at the Park is
splendid and we'll played by the Law

is growing each week in
favor of the Park patrons and stands

PASSING OF
 WELSH MIDGET.
Little Jimmy Michael Bro- Ken Financially and a Mental Wreck Sails for His Old Home--NOtes.

Little Jimmy Michael, the Welsh Rabbit, winner of many a fortune dur ing his thirteen years on the cyc-e track and possessor of none of the many fortunes now, slipped away quietly to England a few days ago with his brother Willie, and will be seen no more in America as cycle racer. Micnael was supposed to be in Lard training at Jacksonville for the opening of the season. and was schcu- uled to ride in the opening race at the new Atlanta track. He came to Amer ica hoping to remain, and hoping to regain his lost prestige and once more rank as the leading pace follower Of the world. This he could never do. however. in the estimation of men who saw his accident in Berlin. In this accident Michael struck upon his head and 1t is thought that there was left upon his brain after his recovery clot of blood which seriously affect ed his reasoning. He thought all Of his oId-time friends. with few excep- tions, enemies. and looked continually for trouble from the time he reacned this country James c. Kennedy and Tom Eek, former managers, interested themselves in his behalf, it was said yesterday. and Eek se"ured transporta-
 
 home. It was Eek who brought Mich ael to America back in 1896 and who first made him sensation in this country. Chappie Warburton, now dead. is credited with having developed the lad in Europe. where. owing to his diminutiveness and evident ability. he made q sensation. In America Micn- ael was again 8 sensation, and the largest crowds ever seen at race meets witnessed his contests against Star buck, McDuffee, Nelson. Linton, -itus and other riders. Michael and Star buck in competition crowded Madison Square Garden to such an extent that the doors had to be closed on thou sands who could not enter. Michael and Nelson at Charles River park fought out twentv-mile race before 15.000 people and divided purse of $4 800 for the race.
