Is Now St. MicheaI's Priory.

The writer had the pleasure Of
visiting the Catholic mon
astery west of town Wednesday
and meeting the Rt. Rev. Abbot
Frowin Conrad who arrived here
recently from Conception Abbey
at Conception, Mo. The Rt.
Rev. Abbot expressed himself as
we'll pleased with this country
and especially with the growth
of the churches here in the past
few years. On July 22nd he
blessed the house and chapel at
the monastery farm and at this
time the monastery was opened
as st. Micheal's Priory with Rev.
Father Berthold as Prior. The
Priory now contains five priests,
the others being Father Ignatius,
Subprior, Father Boniface,
Father Odilo and Father Athana-
sius. Besides their other duties
the members of the Priory will
look after the spiritual welfare
of the parishes of Cottonwood,
Keuterville, Ferdinand, Grange
vile and the mountain country.
While nothing can as yet be
stated definitely it is quite pro-
bable that as soon as conditions
will premit a school for boys
will be opened at the Priory,
thus affording an opportunity
for the youths Of this part Of
idaho to obtain proper and COM
petent instruction along educa-
tional and religious lines without
going to the heavy expense of
attending colleges in the larger
cities.
In fact, the Rt. Rev. Abbot
believes this part of Idaho will
prove to be a very desirable
place Of residence for Catholic
families because of its church
and school facilities and expects
to see a material increase of the
population of our towns and
farming communities because OF
these favorable conditions.
The Rt. Rev. Abbot is a mar
of very pleasing personality
and one whom it is a pleasure to
meet. He hopes to be able tc
visit this section each summer
! and has enjoyed his present visit
greatly. He expects to leave
! Monday for Mt. Angel, Ore, OF
short visit and will then return
to the Abbey house at Concep
ton, Mo.

"A MURDER
AT GRANGE VILE
Joe SOTrbN Kills Officer Williams
! Apparently Without Motives
Had Been Drinking and Tried
toDlsarm the Nightwatch.

t-
AS aresult of a pistol duel at
Grangeville late Monday night
ENightwatchman Henry Williams
is dead and Joe Sorrow, a local
blacksmith is confined in the
county jail with bullet wounds in
both legs. It seems the trouble
arouse over the impounding Of
some stock belonging to Sorrow
and it was near the city pound
that the shooting occurred.
Sorrow, who was known to be
very quarrelsome when in liquor,
had been drinking that day and
had torn the star off of Police
man Adams and tramped on it,
the intervention of friends only
preventing a shooting at that
time. Later he appeared at the
pound and engaged in an alterca-
tion with Williams over the stock
that had been locked up.
Williams did not anticipate serious
trouble and started back toward
Main street, when Sorrow pulled
two revolvers and covered him.
/ Williams is said to have tried to
talk him out of shooting but
Sorrow opened fire and then both
men engaged in the fusillade,
About twenty shots were fred
in all and Williams was struck
twice in the chest and died al
four o'clock Tuesday morning
Sorrow was shot in both legs
near the knees. He was later
arrested and placed in Jail.
Williams was one of the bes
known men in Grangeville anC
was well liked by everyone. HI
has acted as special officer ther'
for a long time and always gave
excellent service. He was chic
Patriarch of the grand encamp
ment ofsOdd Fellows and stool
high in that lodge. He leaves
!, wife and FIVE children.
Sorrow has been a resident o
Grangeville for several years ant
has operated a blacksmith shoI
there since the Buffalo HUM
boom" days. He also has
large family.
Feeling is reported to be prett,
strong at Grangeyille agains
Sorrow as it is claimed he wa
not at all justified in the shoot
ing.

In his death the nation has been
deprived of one Of its greatest
citizens. By profession lawyer,
his chief services to his country

ried and honorable career in pub
lie lite. As mayor of his city, as
governor of his state, and twice as
President he showed signal power
as an administrator, coupled with
eRtire devotion to the country's
good and a courage that quailed
before no hostility when once he
vas convinced where his duty lay
Since his retirement from the
presidency he has continued we'll

trymen by the simplicity, dignity
and uprightness Of his private life.
