LAID SENSELEss
WITH BRICK BAT
Joe Potter Makes CowardIy At
tack on Erick Renning
Not Satisfied With Telling Hi, Victim to Earth
but Violently Kicks PROSTATE Nan on Head
-Rennins in Critical Condition

Erick Renning was the victim of
vicious assault on Sunday evening about
seven o'clock and as a result is now
lying in a precarious condition at the
Boardman hospital, and his assailant,
Joe Potter, is in the county Jail at FL
lendale.
Some of the boys were having beer
party in Johnson's grove, southwest of
town, in the afternoon and Potter ca me
there drunk and made fool of him
self. He bantered any in the crowd to
a wrestle and one of the boys threw
him with one hand behind his back.
This sort of angered Potter, and he
was not satisfied. They all came up
town and as the story was given to US
Potter and Renning went to the rear
of Lockie's store and had a wres-
tie. Renning came out on top,
and got up good naturedly and walked
up the alley towards Sullivan's barn.
Potter followed. Renning passed
around the barn and had turned south
on the sidewalk, going toward Marshal
Hunter, who was near the corner of
the main street. Erick was in the act
of lighting cigar. and was just telling
the marshal that his man was going to
hit him, but the words were not out of
I his mouth when Bang! and big brick
bat took Erick over the.sright temple.
Renning went to the sidewalk and his
assailant at once went to kicking him
on the head-and but for the inter-
ference of Marshal Hunter and Alder
man Boardman, would undoubtedly
killed his victim right there. Potter
had come across the lot back of the
barn and had gotten onto Renning be-
fore he was aware. Evidently the
latter did not know that the man after
him had brick in his hand. Erick had
taken the whole affair good naturedly
and did not think of such vicious act.
Erick, it is said, had been drinking
some beer, but was not intoxicated.
| The injured man was at once removed
to his room in the Erick Paulson home,
and DR.. Boardman summoned. He did
not regain consciousness until the next
morning. He did not touch food nor
water on Monday and on Tuesday was
removed to the hospital. In the even
ing he was reported worse and in a
rather critical condition.
Potter was at once taken to the city
lookup, and on the following day was
arraigned in Justice Wickersham 8
court on the charge of assault and
battery with dangerous weapon with
intent to do great bodily harm. The
prisoner waived examination, and was
bound over to the district court, bonds
beng fixed at $500. He was unable to
furnish bail and was taken the same
afternoon by Deputy Sheriff Huffman
to Glendale and lodged in the county
Jail. Potter has for some weeks been
employed by Sol. Hunter, and has had
charge of the water wagon in sprink-
ling the streets. He is considered too
dangerous man to have running at
large.

sea-a body of water that embraces
$50 square miles. This is the largest
lake at this height on the continent.
We have dinner at "Thumb" station,
and choose the ride across the lake by
steamer in preference to the ride by
coach. As we pass down its placid,
greenish waters we see beyond Mount
Sheridan QO,3s5), and Sleeping Giant,
resembling the head of a human giant
with his face turned to the sky. At
Dot Island in the lake the steamer stops
to feed the buffalo and elk, kept here in
captivity, where splendid look at the
animals are afforded at short range.
We arrive at the Lake Hotel in time
for a couple hours fishing before dark.
A short row down where the Yellow
stone river starts its course and such
fishing was never before seen. The
waters are almost alive with Lock
Leven and mountain trout, and nearly
every member of the party had big
string to his credit when he returned
to the hotel.
It is q very common sight, we were
told, to see bears feeding at the gar
bage piles to the rear of any of the
hotels. Our party had looked through
every back yard so far but had looked
in vain until reaching the Lake Hotel.
All refuse from the hotel is dumped
there morning and evening and we saw
as many as twelve bears come out here
to feed in the space of an hour. First
came three black bears, then a grizzly
with her two cubs, then black one
and her two cubs, two silver tips, and
lastly big grizzly. When he appeared
on the scene all the others scampered
for the timber. While feeding smaller
one came down and tried to nose in,
and the chase the big fellow gave the
smaller one for interfering with his
evening meal, was great enjoyment fol
the crowd Of spectators. On the outer
edge in the weeds or in the brush every
once in while could be seen several of
the smaller bears on their launches
watching old bruin, we presume won
dering if he was going to s'hog" it all.
Elk and deer could be seen browsing
around the hotel, and their tameness is
surprising. These wild animals are
under the protection of Uncle Sam,
and from their actions and disposition
they view man about as they do each
other. No firearms are allowed with
in the park, unless sealed, and if any
shots are fired they are from the guns
of the soldiers who protect the park,
Bears, as rule, will not let strangers
get too close to them, but will run the
other way, that is, if the stranger viii
not take sudden turn of mind him
self. When animals get unruly OF
dangerous, the fact is communicated tt
the major in command of the park ant
it is usually the case that the fierce
ones are removed from the park OF
killed.
