PIONEER SHOT HIMSELF.
Was the First White Settler in the
Asotin Country.

The body of Robert M. Bracken,
the first white man to settle in the
Asotin country, was found this morn
ing near his home in Cloverland, with
bullet through his head, the wound
evidently being self-inflicted with
suicidal intent. Near the body was
found a revolver with an empty
chamber telling the story of the old
pioneers death, says the Asotin Senti-
mel.
The cause attributed for the rash
act is intense suffering from frozen
feet which Bracken sustained last
winter and which were not properly
cared for at the time. Bracken visited
Asotin recently to consult physician
and at that time his feet were in bad
condition and only a continued and
/, severe treatment would result in a
cure,
The old man became discouraged
and returned to his home saying that
he would try and effect cure by
home remedies. The body was found
early this morning near the Chauncey
Taylor place, only a short distance
from the Bracken home. 1t is be-
lieved the deed was committed at ar
early hour last night.
Robert Bracken was about 81 year:
OF age and has been resident of the
Asotin country for AZ years. He is
well remembered by the first settlers
in the country who received many
favors at the hands Of Mr.. Bracken
His generosity and integrity have beer
| characteristic throughout life an6
many of the early pioneers will bow
in sorrow at his sad death.

be pleased over this price. Last year

stroyed. This will make the market
short.

are scared for fear that there will be
shortage of water this year, which
will mean the loss of great sums OF

Powder river is low and is getting
lower each day.

SHOT FROM AMBUSH
SID NEVILLE. A NEGRO LIVING
NEAR THE CITY, WAS WAY
LAID AND MURDERED
TUESDAY NIGHT.
Testimony Deduced at Inquest I'M
pIicates Febb McCaa and Will
Lee, Who Have Been Ar
rested and Jailed.

Sam Neville, a negro residing on
the plantation of Mrs. NJ. +. Gunter,
five miles southeast of this city on
the Pickensyille road, was Waylald
and killed last Tuesday night. The
body was found at an early hour on
Wednesday morning by Robert phil
lips, a negro living on an adjoining
plantation. who was on his way to
this city. The dead negro was lying
in the road only a short distance
from his home, with bullet hole
in his abdomen, which left no doubt
as to the cause of his death. Phil
lips reported his gastly find to Jus
tice of the Peace J. J. Ellis, and
jury of inquest was empaneled to
inauire into the cause of the negro $
death.
At the inquest the fact was devel-
oped that about seven o'clock last
Tuesday night d messenger came to
Nevile's house and informed him
that his father, who lives on a neigh
boring plantation, had been suddenly
stricken with paralysis and wanted
his son to come to him at once. soon
after the message was delivered Nev-
lille started for the house of his Ia
ther, and was never seen alive again.
Testimony deduced at the inquest
served to implicate two negroes, nam
ed Febb McCaa and Will Lee, who
were arrested and placed in jail for
safe keeping.
Those who knew Neville during his
lifetime, and who were to some eX-
tent familiar with MS character, state
that he was quite popular among the
negro women of the neighborhood
and his attentions to some dusky
damseI are believed TO have beer
the cause Of his murder. Lee anC
McCaa. the two negroes who are now
, in jail, will probably have prelim
mary hearing at an early date, ant
; it will then be determined whether
, they will remain in jail or will b(
liberated on bond to await the actor
/ Of the grand jury.
