to arrange for the funeral services.
On receipt of news here, c. M.
Cowan, father of Mrs. Brown, and
Ed. S. Vincent left for the ranch to
bring the body to Mt. Idaho. After
hard, adventurous trip they returned
Monday evening and the funeral was
held yesterday at Mt. Idaho. A large
number of sorrowing relatives and
friends attended the services. Inter
ment was made in the Mt. Idaho
cemetery. Mr.. Browns mother,
Mrs. Baldwin, resides in Mt Idaho
and the following brothers and sisters
survive him: Charles F. Brown and
Sidney Brown, of the Mt Idaho
section, Mrs. Theodore Swartz, of
White Bird, and Mrs. Dickerson, of
Lewiston. Mr.. Brown leaves a wife
and two small children. He was
twice married and an older son by his
first wife, is now at Salem, Oregon.
This son, Fred, was formerly a
student in the local schools.
II. V. Brown was a well known
resident of the county. He was an
honest, ambitious citizen and had
builded his family a home to be
proud of in the wilds of the Clear
water country. They went there
several years ago when the scene of
their now well-improved ranch was
one of rugged uncivilization, prac-
tically. He was home-loving man
and visitors to the ranch were quick
to note the degree of tender devotion
with which the members of his family
were treated by the husband and
father. The extent of this fatherly
love can best be realized when it is
learned that after the unfortunate man
was shot and during the sad journee
homeward he prayed that one last,
final farewell to his wife and children
might be granted him. 1t was the
first thought after the accident and
the last before Death interrupted his
hopes.

H. Brown Well Known Resident of the Clearwater River
try, Killed Last Saturday.
Body Was Brought Mt Idaho Monday Funeral Conducted
There Yesterday at One O'clock

H. V. Brown, better known as
"Hod" Brown, was killed last Satur-
day afternoon by the accidental dis
charge of rifle he was carrying.
Mr.. Brown lived over across the
Clearwater river and in company with
his brother, Sidney, and a nephew,
John Brown, was hunting deer in
what is known as Castle canyon.
The hunters had separated in order to
successfully cover the ground over
which they were hunting. MIR.
Brown was standing on a large log
when he slipped and fell back
wards. His rifle, which was resting
on a log, was dragged after him and
the hammer striking upon some
object fired the loaded rifle. The
heavy bullet, a 1855 calibre, entered
Mr.. Browns right side in the region
of the first rib and emerged from the
body near the base of the neck.
Realizing the seriousness of his
condition Mr.. Brown called
his brother and his nephew
and asked that every effort be
made to reach his home before the
end came. The wounded man was
placed upon horse and the journey
began, but when within short
distance of the Brown ranch, after
having travelled in this bleeding pain
full and sorrowing condition for over
three hours, the spirit of the unfor-
tunate hunter passed into the presence
of its Maker. In the progress of the
trip from the scene of the accident to
his home Mr. Brown related the
story of the shooting to his COM
panions and arranged for the handling
of business matters after his death.
Arriving at the ranch the remains
were properly cared for, and early
Sunday morning John Brown started
for Mt Idaho and Grangeville to
convey the news of the distressing
accident to friends and relatives and

Railroad Will Be Here in Time to Trans.
port the Prairie's Grain and Fruit.
A report is made current this week
to the effect that by the last of next
week the Northern Pacific will have
completed the railroad to Lawyers
canyon, and active bridge construction
will begin soon after, Kelly-Atkinson,
the contractors, having everything in
readiness for construction work not
later than January 10.
Although the track is not ballasted
the company will be able to haul ma
terial to the bridge site, and large
crew of bridge builders will begin the
task of building the huge steel struc-
ture, which will contain 100 cars of
structural steel. The piers on the
west side of the bridge have been
built for some time, and steel work
can begin at once. On the opposite
side of the river the piers have not
been built, as it is impossible to haul
the material around the canyon.
The material for pier construction
will be carried across the gulch on a
tramway, so that construction can be
carried on at the same time the steel
work is going on at the opposite side
of the bridge. If weather conditions
are favorable the bridge will probably
be completed by June | and the re-
naming work to complete the road
to this city will take but a few weeks.
1t is expected that all the details of
the road will be finished in time to
move this years crop from the prai-
rie.

STORY OF KILLING.
Reports Say Raymond had Drawn Weap.
on Before Whittier Fired.

w. A. Newman, of White Bird,
received letter from Mike Thom-
linson, living near Enterprise, Oregon,
the last of the week in which were
given the details of the Raymond
Whittier shooting affair near Pittsburg
Landing a week ago last Saturday
afternoon. The letter says that Ray
mond had been away for FIVE days
and when he returned to his home
found no one there. He went to the
home of his mother-in-law, Mrs.
Whittier and abused the occupants of
the cabin in a shameful manner. 1t
is claimed that the victim of the trag-
edy had drawn a revolver from his
pocket when Whittier, who had
previously been knocked down by
Raymond, secured rifle and killed
Raymond. After the shooting young
Whittier went to several of the neigh
boring ranches and told what had
been done and later gave himself into
the custody of the constable who took
his prisoner to the county seat to be
cared for by the sheriff. With these
few additional facts the story as print
ed in last weeks Globe is complete.

Public interest In London lately has
been engrossed with a murder trial
which. sordid and repulsive as it was.
n some of its details possessed fea-
tuies that prompted Presiding Justice
Grantham to say that 1t was the most
remarkable case In the criminal annals
Of England for many years.
For Eve days Old Bailey was crowd
ed with women of fashion and men of
prominence In drama, literature and
the arts, and outside the court daily
gathered thousands whose tense inter-
est led them to indulge in demonstra-
lions that have recalled the days when
the whole population of the usually
staid city went mad over the news OF
the relief of Mafel<lng.
After being out only fifteen minutes
the Jury returned verdict of not
guilty In favor of Robert Wood, the
young artist who was charged with
the murder of Phyllis Dimmock, a
woman OF the street. The demonstra-
tons began In the courtroom itself,
cheer after cheer greeting the verdict
and even the barIisters joining In
fact, the only man in court who pre-
rerved calmness was the prisoner him
self.
liz the case was remarkable, still
more remarkable was the man around
whom 1t centered. Throughout he was
cool, calm and collected, showing no
emotion. Cheerfully he answered the
searching cross examination by Sir
Charles Matthews and quite held his
own with that practiced barrister,
