Alleged Victim Discusses Story OF
Harry Orchard. Il
San Francisco, June Fred w.
Bradley, former manager Of the Bun
ker Hill and Sullivan mines in the
Occur d'Alenes, said that Orchards
statement quite fits in with his eX-
perience.
"The attempt to poison me with
strychnine in the milk" he said, was
mainly frustrated by my habit of early
rising, my custom being to breakfast
before any one else in the house. On
this morning I found a bitter taste in
the milk, spat 1t out and had the rest
put out of the way. Several innocent
lives, were thus saved This milk had
only been delivered a few minutes be-
fore my tasting it,"
Bradley, continuing, related that he
was so terribly injured by the explo-
sion spoken Of by Orchard that he was
unable to clearly follow the accounts
Of the outrage. He referred to the
allegation that the explosion which
wrecked his home. and himself was
caused by an escape of gas in the
front hall which was tgnited by
match struck to light his cigar.
POSSIBLY there were two explosions
the first the Internal machine and
then an explosion Of gas caused by
the dynamite. The gas may have been
the lifting force which threw me into
the street."
The owner Of the flat sued the gas
company and was awarded $4,000
damages, the explosion being attrib-
uted to a defective meter The gas
company took an appeal, which is now
pending in the supreme court.
, Orchards confession having become
matter Of court record at Boise it is
altogether probable that the record
will be used in the gas company's
efforts to set aside the judgment Of
the lower court.

GOULD CASE IN COURT.
Motion to Strike Out Certain "scan
daIous" Portions.

oatOuS" PORTIONS.
New York, June The first hear
ing in court on the suit for divorce
brought by Mrs. Howard Gould against
her husband was given during the day
when Justice Mccall heard the appli-
cation of counsel for Mr.. Gould for an
order to strike out certain portions OF
Mrs. Goulds complaint. Mr.. Gould's
counsel alleged that these portions are
scandalous. Judge Mccall reserved
his decision and gave counsel until
Monday to file briefs.
Counsel for Mr.. Gould objected to
the charge in Mrs. Gould's complaint
that an ex-convict and later several
detectives in the employ of the city of
New York had been paid by Mr.. Gould
to obtain improper evidence against
his wife; that he had caused the lock
of his wife's mail bag to be changed
and that Mr. Gould for three years
had maintained improper relations
with many unnamed women Of bad
character and conducted himself so
openly and VIGOROUSLY in this respect
as to bring shame and humiliation
upon the plaintiff"

CroSS=Examination Of Harry Or
chard Progressing Slowly.
HIS EVERY MOVE QUESTIONED
aefense Lays Foundation for Evidence
Showing That Witness Was Not at
Wardner, Ida, When He Says He
Aided in Blowing Up Mill.

Boise, Ida, June s.-The cross-ex-
animation of Harry Orchard, leading
witness against William D. Haywood,
has been carried down to the dynanit-
ing Of the VindicatOr mine at Cripple
Creek, Colo, in September, 1903, and
it's progress indicates that it will con-
sumo much more time than the direct
examination. After protest from Or
chard against the speed of Attorney
Richardson's questions, which he said
cut off his answers, and wrangle be-
tween counsel on the subject, the
cross-examination of the witness as to
his experiences in the Occur d'Alene
country was resumed. a.
The defense laid the foundation for
a showing that Orchard was not at
Wardner the day the Bunker Hill and
Sullivan mill was blown up and then
passed on the life of Orchard in Utah
in 1899, 1900 and 1901. The witness
owned up to lot Of gambling, at
which he repeatedly lost his earnings.
The defense showed that until after
he went to Cripple Creek in the au-
tumn of 1902 Orchard had never
known Haywood, Meyer, Pettibone or
Simpkins. The witness confessed that
he stole ore and powder from the Vim
dicator mine.
The witness testified that he heard
Meyer and Haywood deliver speeches
at Cripple Greek after the strike Of
1908 began protesting against any VIC.
lence by the union men.
Denies Suggesting Scheme.
Attorney Richardson sought to show
that Orchard had suggested blowing
up the powder in the Vindicator mine
and while the witness admitted that
he told w. F. Davis Of the existence
Of the powder and that the idea OF
setting it off had come to him he
swore that Davis first suggested the
act.
Orchard identified William Easterly,
who, at the call of Mr.. Richardson,
came from the back Of the courtroom,
| as the man who had aided him in the
! experiments that led to making the
bomb finally used in the Vindicator
mine.
The lie was passed by counsel early
in the afternoon session. During the
| REORGANIZATION. of Orchard j. H.
| Hawley again objected that the wit
ness was not allowed to answer the
| question. Mr.. Richardson insisted
that he be allowed to ask questions
his own way.

Borah.

TUESDAY, JANUARY 20, 1907

THE bill to incorporate Mount Holly
has been introduced in the Legislature
and 1t Is to be hoped it will be given
speedy attention. There is little opposi-
ton to the project, save that some think
there should be city and not merely a
borough. This is not desirable, however,
as there Is no necessity to saddle the ex-
penses of city government on US merely
because the title sounds little better
One of the funniest objections is reported
to be that of gentleman who does not
want to see the old township of Northamp-
ton wiped off the map. That may be
nice, but just at present we do not have
any standing on the map. Northampton
is not recognized and there really is no
such place as Mount Holly legally, SO it
seems time for us to be getting on the
map"

At the Rose tavern, a noted gaming
house standing in Marylebone gardens
early In the eighteenth century, Shelf

toast bis companions at their farewell
dinner when the season ended in the
ominous words, May as many of US

man, otherwise Sixteen Strings Jack"
of evil fame, liked to swagger about at
Bagnigge Wells in the intervals of car

going punishment for the same. He is
described as appearing there in July,
1774, "attired in a scarlet coat, tam
bour waistcoat, white silk stockings
and a laced hat. On each knee he
wore the bunch of eight ribbons which
had gained him his sobriquet of Six
teen Strings jack" There were lively
doings under the influence of this
sprightly gentleman, and on the occa-
sion referred to he was pitched out Of
a window for offending honest COM
pany. Only a few months later he
met the reward for his mIsdeeds on the
gallows at Tyburn for venturing to rob
the Princess Amelia's chaplain.
Dick Turpin was another gentleman
of the road who amused himself In
the intervals of business" by fire.
quenting pleasure gardens. He was
once moved to kiss fair lady In pub
lie at Marylebone, assuring her, when
she protested, that she might ever
after boast Of the favor she had re-
ceived. Whether Turpin and gentle
men of similar occupation came to
pleasure gardens solely for their diver
sion may reasonably be doubted when
we remember how frequent robberies
were in the paths and field ways lead
ing to these sylvan retreats. Watch
men were set ito guard those who &c

robbed, sometimes in the gardens
themselves and sometimes on the road
to or from them.
In early days at Marylebone 1t was
deemed necessary to provide the COM

duct them home at nights, curious

pockets were of course plentiful at all

This story of an deliberately prepar-
ed crime was told by Sir Robert An
derson of Scotland Yard, London. A
criminal marked a millionaire as his
quarry and rented a bedroom near the
railway station from which the rich
man took the train for town. Well
dressed and well groomed, he took his
seat in the same compartment, attract
ing notice only by his apparent desire
to remain unnoticed while he dealt
with the papers he carried In a stylish
handbag. One morning after a few
such journeys he gave vent to his an
noyance at having forgotten his keys.
A stranger sitting In the opposite cor
ner politely offered him his bunch in
the hope that he would find on 1t a
key to open the bag. But none of
them would fit the lock. At the sug-
gestion Of the stranger, who, of course,
was an accomplish, the millionaire
then produced his bunch of keys, and
few seconds sufficed to enable the
thief to take wax impression Of the
key Of the rich mans safe. A few
weeks later the safe was rifled, and
before the crime was discovered the
thief was across the channel with his
booty.

Micah Jarrett was q shrewd horse
trader to the day of his death. He
was slightly deaf and used his deaf
ness in his business to no small degree.
One day he sold an old horse to a
neighboring farmer, who thought he
had found great bargain. He changed
his mind, however, when, after driving
his new purchase a few miles, the
beast emitted a series Of explosions
strongly resembling the exhaust Of q
locomotive.
Straightway he drove to "Gampy,"
who was sharpening knife In his
dooryard, his son Abner turning the
grindstone. The disgruntled purchaser
began a long TRADE, which was per-
fectly audible to the old man, who,
however, simulated great deafness and
finally remarked, "HeyP

on the point of succumbing to the In
tense cold. The boar frost was all
round the neck of the balloon, his
hands were frozen and powerless, and
as the balloon was still rising swiftly
death seemed inevitable to both aero
nauts. Mr.. Coxwell despalred Of open
