HUSBAND SHOOTS RIVAL.
Woman's DeviItry Probable Cause Of
Shooting at Boise.

Boise, Idaho-Late Sunday after
noon H. M. Hedges, a civil engineer
of Caldwell, employed by the Pioneer
Irrigation District of that place, shot
A. S. Whitney, a contractor of Boise,
in room No. 5 at the Idanha hotel, in
this city
Mr. and Mrs. Hedges came to Boise
Saturday and stayed over to attend
the ball game on Sunday between
Caldwell and Boise. A short time be-
fore the shooting occurred Hedges
and Whiteway were seen together on
the street. 1t is said that Whiteway
went to the Hedges room, No. 5, to
see Mrs. Hedges, and Hedges soon
followed. The latter opened fire on
Whiteway, emptying six chambers OF
his revolver, three of which struck his
victim. One shot entered his neck
and bnoke his jaw; another one en-
tered his shoulder, and another his
abdomen, and it is thought he cannot
live. Hedges was taken to the county
jail and Mrs. Hedges was accompa-
MED to her home in Caldwell Hedges
said he intended to shoot his wife also,
but his courage failed him. 1t is said
that Whiteway and Mrs. Hedges had
been very intimate for some time, the
former having had considerable con-
tract work at Caldwell the past year,
and Hedges proceeded to put a stop
to it.

His Victims as He Relieves
Them of Spare Change.

Wawona, Cal.-Two of the roo,,,..
stages from Raymond bound for w.
wona, and owned by the Yosemite
Stage & Turnpike company woro
held up and sixteen passengers ro
l1eved of their valuables on Tburc
day by the "Black Kid" the famous
lone bandit of this section Tho
presence of the robber was disclosed
by the horses, which by their actions
called the attention of Turner tho
driver, to a man who stood at tba
side of the road with an old RUSTY a.
Winchester rifle leveled at his head
He called upon Turner to hold IN
and then commanded the passengers
to hold up their hands. The bandit
asked Turner where the other stage
was and was told that it was fol-
lowing. He displayed considerable
impatience until the second stage an
peared, when he commanded all the
passengers to alight and hold I'D
their hands, which command was
readily complied with on the part of
the passengers.
While waiting for the second stage
and when the collection was going
on, the bandit talked pleasantly with
the driver, and asked what was the
matter with the stages of the pre-
vious day, stating that he had waited
several hours for them to pass
These stages were delayed in leaving
Raymond by a wreck on the railroad.
The robber helped himself to some
peaches, potatoes and crackers from
the stage, remarking that he had
hard night before him. When he had
finished the general hOldup and re-
plenished his stock of foodstuffs, he
ordered the passengers back into the
stages and commanded the drivers
to go on, which order was somewhat
of relief, as they had been stand
ing in the hot road with their hands
raised over their heads for more
than half an hour From descriptions
furnished of the highwayman he is
no doubt the man who stopped the
stages in 1905 and in July and sep
TENDER of last year, at which latter
time he permitted tourist to photo
graph him.

HEADLESS BODY OF BOY
IS FOUND IN A SWAMP
Mutilated Body of Child Kidnapped and
Held for Ransom is Located by
Police and VigiIantes.

New Orleans.-Two miles in the in
terror of big swamp, near this city,
the headless body of Walter Lamana,
an Italian child between and years
old, who was kidnapped and held for
$4,000 ransom two weeks ago, was
found by police and vigilantes just be-
fore daybreak on Sunday He had
been strangled to death, according to
the confession of several Italians held
by the police.
The boys neck is supposed to have
been broken when he was strangled,
causing the head to become separ-
ated from the body when decomposi-
ticn set in. The head was found
short distance from the body.
Five Italians, two of them women,
are under arrest, charged with being
accomplices to the murder, and extra
details of police and deputies are
maintaining order in the excited Ital-
an quarter.

HayWOOd'S Lawyers Assume
the Aggressive in Legal
Battle at Boise.
Expect to lmpeach the Evidence of
Murderer Orchard by Score of
Witnesses.-The States Main
Testimony Already Before
the Jury.

| Boise, Idaho-The closing of the
case of the state leaves the great bat
tie against and for the life of Will
| liam d. Haywood in the midfield, and
from now forward the sides change
the defenders assume the agrees
sive, the prosecutors are on the de-
fensive. The state will carry it's case
On through an aggressive cross
examination and then present testi,
mony in rebuttal, but it's main prop
Dsition and showing are already be-
fore the jury.
The course of the counsel for the
defense during cross-examination. par
ficularly when they laid the founda-
ton for their impeachment of Or
chard, and the personality of many of
the witnesses they have summoned
here, make their general course quite
clear. 1t is manifest that they will
endeavor to show that Orchard
killed Steunenberg to be revenged
for the loss OF the Hercules mine and
several witnesses will swear that they
heard Orchard tell the Hercules tale
and vow that he would kill Steunen-
berg. They will probably show also
that Jack Simplins was prisoner in
the "bullpen" where a negro thrust
a bayonet into his chest, circum-
stances that gave the two common
causes against Steunenberg
There will likely be a showing that
all of the financial relations of Hay
wood and Simplzins came in the nat
ural and regular course of conduct
ing the business affairs of. the fed
Grafton. In this connection as we'll
as to the grants of money and food
to Orchard and his wife and Steve
Adams, the books and records of the
federation will probably be pro
duced.
Orchards story about the letters
connected with the alleged plan to de-
ceive his wife will in all probability
be directly controverted and gener-
ally discredited.
1t is expected that Haywood will
go on the stand and that there wiz
also be strong showing as to his
character. The defense has upward,
of $50 witnesses and it is estimated
that it will take from three weeks to
a month to present all of it's testi-
mony.
