bright, a 2O-year- old Albany bow made
a successful dive from a ladder 70 feet
high into less than six feet of water
The ladder was erected in the mouth of
the Calapooia river, where it empties
into the Willamette at this city. it's TOP
being higher than the floor of the AL
bany steel bridge. The dive was made
IN the presence of a large crowd, both
the bridge and the bank of the river
below being lined with people, and
was the star feature of a performance
consisting of diving from trapeze and
other aquatic feats, given by a club of
Albany boys, who maintain a boat
house and bath house, together with
ladders and trapeze bars at the mouth
Of the Calapooia river. This is the

knew that the man who attended to
their wants is a brother Of a candi-
date for president of the United
States, a man who will be talked
about more in the next few months
than probably any other man in the
country.
E. w. Parker, brother to Judge AL
ton 3. Parker, democratic nominee for
president of the United States, was
head salesman for the Pidduck- Ross
company for about a year and half.
He left Seattle a little more than a
year ago. and is now employed in a
store at Astoria. ,~a
The Seattle Parker never made any
reference to his distinguished brother
while he was working in Seattle,
though since the judge was nominated
he has told few friends In Astoria Of
the relationship. Since the fact has
become public, employees OF the store
here say they can remember a resem-
blance between the two men, and that

the distinguished jurist.
They all say they recognize that T..
w. Parker is a man of superior breed
ing and education, and claim that he
held himself rather aloOf from the
other employees of the store. He was
always pleasant and agreeable, they
say, but did not mix with them as
freely as he might.
Mr.. Pidduck says that Mr.. Parker
was an excellent salesman and he
never had any fault to find with his
work. except that perhaps Mr. Parker
sometimes felt above his position. and
the rules laid down for all the employees
chafed him at times. Mr.. Parker left
the employ of the Pidduck- Ross COM
pany Of mis- own accord a little more
than a year ago.
Previous to coming to Seattle, Mr..
Parker was in business for himself in
Spokane for a short time, and he has

JURY SUSPECTS MURDER
INVESTIGATION ADDS TO MYs-
Terry OF THE DEATH OF
IDAHO MAN.
1
His Companions Claim That He Was
Murdered While Enrout to
Timber Claim.

WARDNER. Idaho. Aug. 3.-The
mystery of the manner in which Henry
Stanley met his death, while on the
wav recently to his timber claims on
the North Fork river deepenS as more
of the meager facts obtainabe are
brought to light. At the inquest held
over the body, the jury, after deliberat-
ing until midnight, brought in verdict
of death by a gunshot. fired by some
one unknown to them. The fact that
the bullet entered the back Of the neck
and came out under the chin was al
most conclusive evidence that he did
not fire the shot himself, and that it
was hardly possible that it could have
been accidental.
The prosecuting attorney OF the
county has taken up the case and sent
Deputy Sheriff Elliott to the scene of
the tragedy to make a thorough inVes-
tigation of the grounds, and if possible
throw some light on the matter.
The affair has caused much excite
ment in Wardner, where the dead man
was we'll known, and much interest
is felt in the return of the deputy sher-
iff with his report.
Stanley was on his way to the tim
her claims in company with two other
men. Just before the shooting he took
the rifle belonging to the party and
went ahead Of mis- companions to keep
a lookout for game.
The men say that Stanley had pro-
ceeded only about 800 yards when they
heard a shot. They Immediately hur-
,ied forward to find their companion
living dead on the trail with a bullet
wound in the back Of the neck.
One of the pack horses was I'M
loaded and the body of Stanley was
brought to Wardner after forced
march of twenty-five miles over the
mountains.

ned. While the physicians were sew
ing up his wrist he watched the ope-
ration with great interest, but made
no comment on the work.
The young man is thought to be
hopelessly insane, and if he RECEIVERS
from mis- injuries will be sent to the
asylum. The physicians who attended
him say that he has a fair chance for
recovery.
The young man lived with his
mother in a cottage. Soon after dark
the building was seen in flames. For
sells mother was not at home, and
he had taken advantage Of her alb
sence to set the building on fire.

has been pending for some time, and
yesterday q written opinion was hand
ed down by Superior Judge Sloss, in
which it was held that the father was
under no legal obligations to fulfill an
agreement made with mis- wife, Nemie
Gallatin, when they were divorced on
June u, 1881. Under the agreement
Mrs. Gallatin was to have the custody
or the daughter Grace. now wife of
the author. and was to pay for her sup
port and education. Galatin. however.
agreed to pay $66 a month towards the
child's support. and further saio mat
when she reached the age of eighteen
years he would give her $4,000.
Tle monthly payments were con-
tlnued for a long time, and were even
tually reduced from s66 a month to
$500 year. The $4,000 was never
paid, although Grace Gallatin reached
the age of eighteen in 1890. After she
married the author she first limited to
her father that the money would be
welcome, and then she became insist
ent and finally told him she would go
to the courts for her rights.
Ihese facts were set forth in the
affidavit Of Gallatin in the trial of the
case. and he included the interesting
correspondence between himself and
daughter. She sent MIN a COW of
Ihompson's book Wild Animals l
Have Met, and referred to the volume
IN all her epistles. Judge Sloss made
no comment on the documentary evil
dence of the wifes delight in her hus-
pahd works, nor upon the couples
poverty IN spite of their literary Sue
cess.
The Judge cOldly weighed the legal
proposition and held that there was
no consideration for Gallatin in the
agreement with his divorced wife and
that IN awarding her the custody of
the child the mother was obligated un-
DER the law to maintain her. The child
herself was not a party to the litigati
Tor divorce and therefore could not sue
for benefits growing out of the agree
ment.
