sister and other Relatives Of the De-
ceased are Said to Live in Rich
mond- Body Probably viii Be Re-
moved From Its Resting Place In
potters Field.

According to information furnished
Sheriff r., X Curtis, the unknown
man. who died in the county jail last
week, was william Shand. OF Newport
News. who was employed in the ship
yard as a helper. Shand formerly
lived in Richmond, where he is saio
to have a sister and several other
relatives living at present.
The identity of the man was
brought out through key found III
the clothing of Shand when he was
picked ND in an unconscious condl-
tion in East Hampton by Special o.
ficer Charles NJ. Williamson. Inc
foreman under who Mr.. Stands was
employed in the shipyard, came 10
Hampton Sunday and conferred with
Sheriff Curtis After listening to the
description of the dead man furnished
by the sheriff and Deputy Sheriff
Charles c. Curtis, the Newport News
man said that there is no doubt about
the dead man being Shand. The III
ielligence of the sudden death OF
Shand was forwarded to his relatives
in Richmond and it is now thought
that arrangements will be made TO
have the body taken up from the
grave in the potter's field and buried
In a cemetery.
Sheriff Curtis informant told the
local officers that Stands disappeared
from his boarding house in Newport
News three or four days before he
was found in a dying condition IN
East Hampton. It was said that when
he left his boarding house Shand had
been drinking, but just how he wan
dered off to this section will likely
never be known.
The key found on Stands person
was one given him when he went to
work at the shipyard. Shand hat
worked in Roanoke and also in Rich
mend.
II was recalled that last week Spe-
cial Officer Williamson found the I'M
known man in a dying condition ly-
ing on the grass in rear OF the East
Hampton Methodist church The man
was unable to talk and although he
revived slightly during the day the
officers were never able to secure
= statement from him He either
was unable to do so or declined to di-
vulge his name. He did say that he
lad lived in Roanoke and also in
Richmond.
An account Of the death was pub
lished In these columns and the num-
ker of the key found on his person
vas what attracted the men who
knew Shand in Newport News.

Successful Opening

An innovation in the retail circles
Of Grangeville was the opening Of the
Grangeville Department Store held
Monday evening between the hours of
seven and nine.
The old store and its unelegant ap-
pearance has been completely changed
in place Of an illarranged country
store room we find there today mod
ern merchandising emporium filled
from top to bottom with seasonable
and snappy merchandise of all kinds.
The old store and its musty methods
has given away to a shopping center
OF elegance where the best Of goods
are sold on legitimate merchandising
principles. A new management, keen
to the demands of the people, new
sales people bright and eager to wait
on you, makes the Grangeville De
partment Store desired place to
trade.
While cash carrier system and other
conveniences have been installed to
facilitate the rapid transaction of
business the public and its comforts
have not been overlooked, rest room
writing room and other conveniences
are found here.
But getting back to the opening
the store was beautifully and appro-
priately decorated in autumn foliage,
potted palms and tastefully arranged
evergreen with here and there drap-
peries Of the latest weaves and mater
ial selected from the stock of the dry
goods department. During the eve
ming high class musical program was
given by Prot. Baumgartel and his
orchestra of Lewiston.
just as one entered the store he was
given his choice of souvenirs of cut
glass and china and from the records
Of the gifts distributed over 800 peo-
pie were in the store during the eve
ming. The large room was continual
ly crowded and while every attempt
was made to see to the comforts of the
eager visitors to take care of the
crowd was no easy matter. The Vogue
Millinery parlors, situated in the bal
cony Of the store, was prettily decor
ated and attracted many Of the lady
visitors. A pleasing feature Of the
opening was that no goods were offer
ed for sale, in fact business was COM
pletely suspended and the entire eve
ming was given over to the entertain
ment of Idaho County people.
Many were the compliments heard
on every hand and deserved congrat-
ulations to Mr.. kornfeld, the pro-
prietor, were not lacking.
