BITTEN BY BOAR.

d. u. higgins, Idaho pioneer
and owner Of the higgins hot
springs on Salmon river, was ser
iously wounded yesterday after
noon by an infuriated boar which
he was assisting friends to load
IN a wagon at the show grounds.
1t seems the construction of the
crate containing the animal was
defective and the end gave way
allowing the boar to plunge out
upon Mr.. Higgins, telling him to
the ground and before he was re-
scued the boar had inflicted ser.
ious wound upon the calf of the
and some minor gashes. DR.. j.
b. Morris was Immediately called
and the wounds temporarily dress
ed after which Mr.. higgins was
removed to the st. Joseph hospit-
al where the wounds can be given
the most scientific treatment.
Mr.. Higgins came to Lewiston
about two weeks ago to attend
the stock show and visit with his
son. He had intended returning
to his home within the next few
days.-Tribune.

}. II. Abbott, of Spokane, to
Occupy Foster Location
with General Stock.

j. ii. Abbott, who was in this
clty on December Sth looking over
the business situation, wired j. w
Wllks Tuesday of this week that
he and associates would take a
five-years lease on the first floor
rooms OF the Wilks block, the
kilen -Telcher Schmadeka block
and the east front of the Savings
and Trust Co: building, including
the basement of the former build
lngs. This telegram was based on
conditional contract which Mr..
Abbott had entered into with Mr..
Wilks and the other owners, when
here, and contains provision
for an additional five years. Ship
ment Of goods, it is said, will be-
gin within a few days, arrange
ments having been previously
made for prompt action.
This means that Grangeville
will within the next few weeks
have another large and well fl
nanced mercantile house doing
business in its midst. Mr.. Abbott,
the senior member of the firm, is
an extensive property owner in
Spokane and vicinity, and comes
highly endorsed both as a busi-
ness man and a citizen, with
ample means to conduct business
on an extensive scale.
The new firm will carry large
line of general merchandise, in
cluding an extensive grocery
stock, for which the location that
has been selected is especially
well adapted, having the double
fronting on two streets, with high
ceilings and good light. and was
especially planned for the con
ducting of such business. In con-
sideration of the retirement of
Lomax & Felt, the arrival of the
new firm is well timed.

STEIN TAKES
HIS OWN LIFE
Distributes Property, Shaves,
Bathes and then Hangs
Himself.

Herman Stein, the stock man
who was before Probate Judge
DeHaven several weeks ago, on
a charge of lunacy, but was ac-
quilted, committed. suicide at his
ranch near Winona on last Tues
day morning by hanging.
That it was a clear case of self
destruction there is no doubt
whatever, the dead man having
left note dated at 80 O'Clock in
the morning" in which he said he
was feeling awfully bad. The
body was found on Thursday
morning by Arthur Kitchen, who
went to the place to get some cat
tie which he had bought Of Stein
the Sunday before and paid the
cash for. Not seeing anyone
about, Kitchen went into the
house and found Stein hanging in
the back room with his lariat
rope about his neck, the other end
of which was attached to two
fork handles which he had placed
across the scuttle hole in the cell
ing. The suicide had climbed on
to a stool which he had kicked
from under himself after fasten-
ing the rope about his neck; the
rope had stretched however, un-
til the feet of the dead man rest
ed on the flo0r,and he was in this
position when Sheriff Overman
and Coroner Blake went to view
the remains and secure evidence
connected with the case.
Stein left a letter at the Kamiah
bank in which he devised his pro-
perty, giving the cash in the bank
to Peter Rase, neighbor, the re-
mainder of his property being be-
queathed to Idaho county to be
used in improving conditions at
the county farm.
Deceased was a bachelor, about
45 years Of age and a man of
very eccentric habits. He had
spells of mental arrangement, at
which times he was said to be
quarrelsome and his neighbors
feared him greatly. 1t was for
shooting at neighbor while in
one of those spells that he was re-
Gently on trial at this place. Stein
had some property consisting of
a ranch, some thirty head of cat
tie and other stock and money in
the bank having recently sold
hogs and cattle to the amount of
$7OO or $500. He has brother
and it is doubtful if
the bequest to Idaho county will
stick in law. The body was TAX
en- to Kamiah for burial.

ELK CITY MINE
Canadian Capital Buys Rio
Tinto and Takes Option
on American Eagle.

The Rio Tinto group of six
claims, east of the American
Eagle have been taken over by a
company composed of Hamilton,
Ontario, people, and the money
has been paid. The company is
known as the Rio Tinto Mining
and Milling company, of which
VIM. McRae of Seattle, is presi-
dent, Alex Henry of Hamilton,
treasurer and j. F. McDermid of
Hamilton, general manager.
The Rio Tinto group was own
ed by Messrs. Parks, Hitler, Me
Kinnon, Boyd and Still. The
vein is opened by several tunnels
and shows strong, with ore of a
good grade.
Mr.. McRae and Mr.. McDermd

making plans for future work,
and as a preliminary let con-
tract to JAS. McKinnon to drive
tunnel so feet.
The company have also secur-
ed a working bond on the Ameri-
can Eagle holdings, and on this
property will be the scene of the
greatest activity.
From Mr.. McDermid, the gen
eral manager, it was learned that
as soon as arrangements can be
made, work will be started on
the American Eagle, and it is
the intention to sink shaft 500
feet. The shaft will be started
at the mouth of tunnel No. /.
The first work will be to raise
from tunnel No. 2, and then
start sinking.
The company have purchased a
a boiler and other necessary
machinery, which will be on the
ground by the time it is needed.
Work on the American Eagle will
not start until after the first of
the year, as several matters will
have to be adjusted before active
operations will begin.
Mr.. McDermid states that his
company intends to do legitimate
mining and is well financed, and
able to carry on any work under
taken.
A. w. Boyd will be superin-
tendent in charge of the work,
and is expected in after the first
of the year.
At present Duncan Curry is in
charge of the property, and has
men at work doing assessment
