out this week in a new dress,

best weekly papers of this part
of Idaho. Here's hoping it con-
tinues to prosper.
The cases against the saloon
keepers at Grangeville for selling
liquor to a minor were dismissed
Monday after one of the men
had been tried by a jury and
found not guilty. The saloon
men admitted selling Chase liq-
uor but did so after he had
sworn he was of age and the
jury decided the cases were
more of q farce than anything
else.
A full train load of live stock,
consisting of sixteen cars of cat
tie and hogs. was shipped out
yesterday from Grangeville and
Fem to the Spokane and Seattle
markets. This is the first stock
to be shipped since the recent
strike of the railroad switchmen'
and goes to show that the strike
conditions have improved suffi-
GENTLY in the west to permit of
the roads handling shipments of
live stock and perishable freight
again. Shipments of Christmas
goods are also being received and
from present indications the
strike will be a matter of short
duration in the northwest. 1t is
still unsettled, however, in the
east and is liable to remain so
for some time to come.

MYSTERY N CASE
Rich Berlin Farmer and Young
Woman Found Dead
In Room.
THE GAS WAS TURNED ON.

Grand Rapids, Mich, Jan. Deep
mystery surrounded the death OF
Patrick Henry Prendergast, a rich
Berlin farmer. and Alice May Mac
CULLEN, formerly school teacher in
the West Side high school, but now a
clerk in a local department store,
whose bodies were found in a room in
the Clarendon hotel late yesterday af-
ternoon. ...
Gas was flowing from a jet in the
room and the woman's face was badly
burned by acid of some kind. The
body of Prendergast was stiff and
cold when found, while that of the wo-
man was still warm when found and it
is the opinion of the coroner that she
had been dead only about thirty min
utes
Prendergast is said to have come
from Berlin last Thursday on which
day he met Miss MacQuillen. He is
said to have been drinking heavily.
Coroner Hilliker is investigating the
case.
