REWARD OF $500
FOR MURDERER
County Will Pay That for COnvic-
ton of Kyriss Slayer

Five hundred dollars Is the reward
offered by the board of county com
missioners for the arrest and convic-
ton OF the murder or murderers or
Christopher Kyriss. OF Spokane. The
board has for some time contemplat-
ed Offering a reward. but Ii was not
until lately that the members of the
board could be seen and conferred
with In regard 10 the matter. The
sherltR's Office has been authorized 10
make public the reward, and ii is
made to extend to all persons able to
furnish the information that will
bring about the arrest and conviction
OF the murderer, save members OF the
sheriff's ONCE.
The dead body of Kyriss was found
In the waters Of the lake just week
ago last Friday near Tubbs point.
An ugly wound In the forehead that
had penetrated the braia and caused
hemorrhage. and severgl other severe
wounds about the head oonclusisely
showed that the man had been muir
dered Kyrias disappeared from his
home at Spokane on the 27th of
last month, and according to evil
dence given Mt the coroner's inquest.
he was seen in this city after that by
Joe johnson OF the Franklin hotel.
He had come TO the hotel. stayed
over night, and the next morning
gone out to secure his breakfast, and
this was the last seen OF him until
his body was discovered in the lake
The officers of the sheriffs Office at
Rathdrum, and the police of the city
and OF Spokane have been dill
gently at work on the case, but ao
far. as near as can be learned, no
evidence has been unearthed which
would lead to the Identity of his MUIR
derers. The police at Spokane found
the dead mans watch In pawn
shop and the proprietor stated he had
pawned IT.. and the presumption was
that he did so In order 10 secure
enough money to carry him to Ritz
vile To make collection of a debt
due him. Whether he made the visit
to RitZYiile for that purpose prior 60
coming to this city has not been
learned. The police here have been
at work on the case and secured
data showing that at the time that
Kyriss was In the city and also for a
time afterward there was also pres
ent here a notorious crook. accom-
panied by a woman Suspicion was
directed towards him and an effort
Ia being made TO locate him. but 40
far without success The theory il
borne out by the fact that when his
body was discovered nothing of any
value was found in the clothing worn
by the man. II Is said that the man
had money in the banks at Spokane.
and that at the time he left was pos
sessed of money, but the amount has
not been made known One OF the
peculiar and unexplainnbie features
OF the case was the finding of tho
dead mans coat and hat on stump
but a short distance from where the
body was found In the lake.
