ORCHARD BACKS
STARTLING ASSERTION MADE
THAT HE WILL REPUDIATE
CONFESSION.
ATTORNEYS TO DEFEND HIM
He Will Bring Suit to Regain the
Hercules Mine In Name Of
Wife and Daughter.

Boise, Idaho.-Harry Orchard will
repudiate his confession and be de-
Tended by the firm of Root & Breen
Of Butte when he is arraigned for trial
in the District Court of Canyon
county at Caldwell for the murder of
Ex-Governor Steunenberg
This startling assertion was made
by men close to the Moyer-Haywood-
Pettibone defense, and circumstances
indicate almost beyond doubt it's
truth. Peter Breen of the Butte law
firm received telegram from his part
ner Root, saying he had returned from
Canada, where he consulted with Or
chard's wife, and that suit would i'm
mediately be instituted for the restora-
tion of the sixteenth interest in the
Hercules mine, sold by Orchard to
Dan Gardener, to Orchards estate. Or
chard's wife and nine-year-old daugh-
ter will be plaintiffs in the civil action
to be instituted at once in Shoshone
county for the recovery of the prop
erty, now valued at 100000.
On what grounds the suit will be
based is not definitely known, but it is
understood it will be maintained that
Orchard merely mortgaged the prop
erty to Gardener for s400. On the wit
ness stand Orchard testified that he
sold his interest outright. 1t has been
pointed out to him If the suit to be
brought by his wife and daughter is
successful it will be necessary for him
to repudiate that portion of his con-
fession. When informed of this situa-
ton Orchard is reported to have said:
Il will repudiate all of it."
Certain 1t is that he has given his in
dorsement to the proceedings at Wal
lace, and that Mr.. Breen, one of Hay
woods counsel, is to represent the in
terests of the Orchard family.
For more than an hour William D.
Haywood talked with Thomas B. Gress,
foreman of the jury which acquitted
him. Haywood called at the Gress
home for the purpose of again express
ing through the foreman his thanks to-
the entire jury, and in spite of the
fact that Mr.. Gress was one of the
three who voted guilty" on the first
ballot, he cordially welcomed the fed
Grafton leader and they talked over
the case and many features of the long
trial Most of the forenoon today
Haywood spent in the offices of the
defense attorneys, where he read news
paper reports and coments op the
verdict.

Icelanders a Free People.

Reyjavik, Iceland.-At a banquet
given in his honor, King Frederick of
Denmark announced his policy regard
ing the future relations between the
Danish crown and Iceland.
Il have inherited the kingdom as a
unit" said King Frederick, "and as
such it shall remain from generation
to generation, but l have also inher-
tied from my father the tradition that
the Icelanders are to be a free people,
who cooperate with the King in franz
ing the laws under which they are to
live. l have, therefore, established a
commission, consisting of members OF
the Danish Rigsdag and the Icelandic
Althing, to arrange for legislation
to define the constitutional position Of
Iceland in the realm and to find form
under which the freedom of Iceland
may be built up and protected while
at the same time the unity of the realm
is preserved and insured"

HAD MISSED GOOD THING.
Patrick's Joy Dimmed by Thought Of
Wasted Opportunities.

Patrick. recently arrived and un-
used to the ways of this country. WA
accosted one day by a member of the
sporting fraternity, who offered to Inn
part to him, for a modest considera-
tion, marvellous way to make money
without toiling for it. All one needed,
he said. was a small amount to bet
on certain horse that couldn't pos
sibly lose. "And yez say OF can get
that money without working for it?"
asked the bewildered Irishman, when
the other was through explaining.
Sure thing. All the work you got to
do is to count the mazuma." I'LL thry
It," said Pat. So they hied them to
racecourse, where the sporty-looking
gentleman placed Pats money at odds
of five to one. And the horse won!
Pats joy was unbounded when he was
handed large roll of yellow backed
bills. Calling his new-found friend to
one side, he asked in a voice that
trembled with excitement: "Oi say,
how long has this thing been goin'
on ?"

New coal Camp in wyoming.

Evanston, Wyo.-George E. Pexton,
John II. Ward and d. G. Thomas have
leased from the Union Pacific Coal
Company a valuable tract of coal
land near No. mine at Almy, a coal
camp near this city, and are already
at work in the opening up of a new
coal camp at that place.
This coal is of the highest grade
and arrangements have been made to
install machinery at once for the pro-
duction of 500 tons of coal day. The
great demand for coal in the West is
resulting in the opening of new mines
all through southern. Wyoming. The
Rocky Mountain Coal and Iron Com
pany, now operating at Almy. has
opened two mines and is preparing to
open two more collieries. This will
make five big mines in operation at
that place.

Meyer Comes to Denver.

Boise, Idaho.-Charles H. Meyer,
president of the Western Federation
of Miners, has been released from the
Ada county Jail on bond of $4,000
signed by Timothy Reagan and
Thomas j. Jones of Boise.
Meyer will leave for Salt Lake City
at once, in company with William d.
Haywood, who on Sunday was acquit-
ted of the murder OF former Governor
Steunenberg After a stop of few
hours in Salt Lake City, they will
proceed to Denver, the headquarters
of the federation.
DR.. I. ]. MCGEE of Wallace, Idaho,
charged with perjury in the Haywood
case, had a hearing in the Probate
Court and was bound over for trial
on his own recognizance. DR.. MCGEE
said that Harry Orchard was in Wal
lace in August, 1904 Orchard was a
witness against him and declared he
was not in Idaho at the time men
toned.
Steve Adams, who was expected to
be an important witness at the trial,
but who was not called by either side,
was taken back to Wallace to await
a second trial on the charge of murder
there. His first trial resulted in a dis
agreement.
Formal application has been made
in the District Court to have George
A. Pettibone admitted to bail. The mo-
tion was submitted without argument
and was promptly denied by Judge

Is Pe-ru-na Useful
for Catarrh?

Should List OF the ingredients Of Pc
runa be submitted to any medical ex-
pert of whatever school or nationality,
he would be obliged to admit without
reserve that each one of them was ofun-
doubted value in chronic catarrhal dis
eases, and had stood the test of many
years experience in the treatment Of
such diseases. THERE CAN BE NO
DISPUTE ABOUT THIS WHAT
EVER. Peruna is composed of the most
cficacious and universally used herbal
remedies for catarrh. Every Ingredient
of Peruna has reputation Of its own
in the cure of some phase of catarrh.

intheuse ofcatarrh remedies, and in the
treatment of catarrhal dissasea.
The fact is, chronic catarrh is p dis.
ease which is very prevalent. Many
thousand people know they have
chronic catarrh. They have visited
doctors over and over again, and been
told that their case is one of chronic
catarrh. It may be Of the nose, throat,
lungs, stomach or some other internal
organ. There is no doubt as to the ma
ture of the disease. The only trouble
is the remedy. Tlis doctor has tried to
cure them. That doctor has tried to
prescribe for them.
BUT THEY ALL FAILED TO
BRING ANY RELIEF.
DR.. Hartman's idea is that catarrh
remedy can be made on large scale,
as he is making it; that it can be made
honestly, of the purest drugs and OF
the strictest uniformity. His idea il
that this remedy can be esupplied direct
ly to the people, and no more be charged
for it than is necessary for the

Allowing that Peruna invites the full

SUMMER NORMAL

The first session of the State Sum
mer Normal school at Occur d'Alene
closed after having had a most sue.
cessful term of six weeks. InAsmuoh
as this was the first session of such a
school in Idaho, especially in the
northern part of the state, it may be
interesting to our readers to know
something of the origin of the sum
mer normal schools in this state.
Almost two years ago, through the
active work of several of the educat-
ors both north and south, an attempt
was made to provide during the vaca.
ton months some means whereby
teachers might continue their academ-
ie and professional training, thereby
raising the standard without involv
ing the diseontinuanoe of their regu-
lar work, As result of this, several
of the county superintendent in the
south united the interests of their
counties and made possible tho main
tenRnCe of two summer schools, one
at Pocatello and one at Boise. The
movement was taken up in the north,
ern part of the state, also, but as il
was started too late in the year to
insure a successful opening, it waS
decided to defer the undertaking foI
one year.
At the meeting Of the State Teach.
res association at Boise last Decem'
Der, the matter of summer schools
came up for anal discussion. The
result OF the discussion was that a res
olution was adopted unanimously by
the Association recommending that 4
special committee be empowered L
formulate a plan for the establish
ment and maintenance Of at leas
three state normal schools, and that
this committee further be entrusted
with the work Of presenting a suitable
bill for the consideration OF the Stat
Legislature. Accordingly House Bill

No. 55, by Representative White Of
Boise, was introduced early in the
session of the ninth legislature. This
bill provided for the establishment
of three state summer normal schools
in Idaho: one at Occur d'Alene, one
at Boise, and one at Pocatello. 1t
was further provided for that the main
tenance of such schools the sum of
$1,000 per annum should be appro-
priated for each school, it being sti-
puIated, however, that no part of
such funds should be expended for
the payment of rent for the use of
any of the buildings in which schools
should be held, and that the use of
said buildings should be furnished
free by the locality where said schools
we're held.
In selecting locations for these
schools, the committee thought it
best to place them where they would
be easily accessible and where they
would be likely to become in touch
with the largest number of teachers.
At the same time due attention was
given to the geographical and natural
fitness of such locations for the hold
ing Of smumer sessions. In the north
ern part of the state the sentiment
was unanimous for the selection OF
Occur d'Alene, not only because OF
its being easily accessible by rail and
water, but also because of it's very
natural facili ties and pleas.
ant summer climate.
In the legislature the committee
found a very strong sentiment 10
favor of the establishment of such
schools. Those in charge of the In.
terests of the school In the north
found most active and forceful help.
ers in Senator MoClear, and Rep
resentative Fallon was none the less
enthusiastic in his support of the
measure. In fact, the initial success
OF the whole movement may be to a
great extent attributed to the efforts
OF these men from Kootenai county.
The interests of the state summer
normal schools have been placed by
law in the hands of a summer normal
school commission consisting Of the
state board of education and the
presidents of Lewiston State Normal
school and Albion State Normal
school. The state superintendent Of
public instruction is the chairman
of this commission.
