MEMORIAL SERVICES
Observed at Presbyterian
Church.

Yesterday morning the q. A. r.,
W. r. @. and members of company
b, met at the corner Of Fourth and
Sherman and formed to march to the
Presbyterian church. Two large
American flags in the hands of the
color bearers of the q. A. X. and the
militia company and many smaller
ones carried by the ladies gave the
procession a martial look. The lad
les were first in the line Of march,
followed by the G. A. X. and oom-
pany B. When the procession reach
ed the church the ladies halted and
formed in two lines through which
the veterans of the Civil war passed
with heads uncovered, the, ladies then
fled into the church and they we're
followed by the militia. The church
WIS crowded to standing room. The
service was opened by the choir and
the congregation singing the National
hymn, followed by prayer by the
pastor. Rev. Litherland's sermon
was impressive and full Of good ad-
vice. The singing by the choir was
good and the songs we'll selected.
The services we're conducted by the
choir singing the ''Star Spangled
Banner" Rev. Litherland then ask
ed the congregation to keep their seat
until the W. r. G. and G. A. r. and
militia had passed out. They filed
out in body, the ladies and old sold
iers opened ranks to let the militia
boys through. The formation was
reversed in the march back to the
hall and when company b reached
Sander hall they swung in open order
and faced in to let the G. A. r., and
w. R. O. through. This concluded
the ceremonies for the day.

Yesterday afternoon about two
O'Clock while Otis Emmonds was out
on the beach near Fosters place he
came across the body of one of the
men who were drowned in the lake in
April. He came to the city and mott
fed Undertaken LemmeI who. charter-
ed launch and went for the remains.
They are now in the Occur d'Alene
Undertaking company's parlors.
On the 7th of last April three men
left Occur d'Alene for a boat ride.
They were James Collins, }. r. Muir
ray and William Christensen. While
on the lake near Kidd Island Chris
Jensen stpeped on the gunwale OF the
boat in changing places with Murray
and this upset 1t and the three we're
thrown into the lake. Murray man
aged to hold to the boat but Christen-
sen and Collins we're drowned. Moth.
ing was seen of the bodies until one
was found yesterday by Emmonds.
A strange coincidence is the fact that
the same man who rescued Murray
also found the body Of his unfortun-
ate comrade.
The dead man answers the desCrip-
ton Of William Christensen. His
body is badly swollen and features
hardly recognizable. Paper in his
clothes however, prove without
doubt the identity of the man. The
reason that the body has not been
found sooner is because Of the cold
ness Of the water. II Is q we'll
known fact that there are very few
bodies, which sink in the lake, evel
found. This has been the cause Oi
much superstition on the part Of
those who do not know the reason OF
the bodies being held to the bottom
Of the lake.

MUST SUMMON
THIRD VENIRE
Jury in Haywood
Case
To Secure

Boise, Idaho, May 81 From
present indication it would seem that
another week must elapse before the
taking of testimony can begin in the
trial of William D. Haywood, first of
the alleged thinner circle of the
Western Federation of Miners to face
Jury in answer to the states charge
of conspiring to murder former Gov
ernor Steunenberg.
But IL members of the second
special veniIe of proposed iurymen
remain. A 18th talesman vas drawn
Saturday afternoon just prior to
adjournment, and is confined with
the trial panel. He has yet to be
examined as to all of his qualiflca
tions. In addition to the vacancy
which he may or. may not fill there
remain four peremptory challenges,
two with the prosecution and two
with the defense. The opposing at
torneys seem determined to use up
every challenge the law allows. This
means that Gully seven final jurors
have been selected little more
than one half and the trial has been
in progress for more than two weeks
actual time.
1t is predicted that the remaining
members of the venire now In attend
ance will be exhausted today, and a
third venlre will then have to be sum-
moned by the sheriff. If this step
becomes necessary the task will oC-
cupy the greater part of Tuesday and
Wednesday, and Thursday being
Memorial day, there will be no SEES
sion of court. The jury may be com
pleted Friday evening or Saturday
In either event it is probable thai
the attorneys for the state will ash
for an adjournment until Monday
morning in order that the opening
address or statement Of the prosecu
TONS case may Immediately be fol
lowed by supporting evidence.
The people of Boise, busy with thu
social and commercial activities Of
their prosperous little city and nevel
wildly excited about the trial, hav'
become less interested than ever be
cause the delay in securing jury.
