Sulzinger Boy Had
Narrow Escape

What very narrowly escaped
being a fatal accident occurred
here in town on Thursday after
noon of last week when little
Alois Sulzinger crashed into the
edge of a sidewalk while coasting
and received injuries which for
several days were considered al
most fatal. Several children had
been coasting down the steep hill
near the Libbey residence and on
the day in question the Sulzinger
boy was coasting there on the
sidewalk and each trip taking
the little West boy down on his
back. When the. accident occur
red on reaching King street they
failed to keep the sled on the
cross walk and it ran between
the walk and an electric light
pole and struck the opposite side
walk near the Turner residence.
Just as the sled struck the walk
the Sulzinger boy raised himself
to keep from striking his head
and received the full force of the
shock with his breast on the edge
of the walk. The West child was
thrown clear of the walk and re-
ceived only slight scratches but

Edgar Wilson is Dead

Boise, Jan. 3.-While his wife,
from whom he had been separat-
ed for more than a year, was be-
ing called to the telephone at her
home, Edgar Wilson, one of the
first Idaho congressman, died at
10 O'Clock this morning at his
apartments in the Owyhee hotel.
Acute pneumonia was given as
the cause Of death.
Mr.. Wilson had been ill for
several days, having contracted
a heavy cold, but his condition
was not regarded as serious until
his physician called this morning.
Mr.. Wilson's attorney, Frank
Martin, was summoned by the
doctor and when it was learned
that Mrs. Wilson had not been
notified of her husbands condi-
ton, Mr.. Martin stepped to the
telephone to inform her. Mrs.
Wilson reached the telephone as
her husband expired.
Last fall Mrs. Wilson filed suit
for divorce and Mr.. Wilson re-
turned about two months ago
from Salt Lake where he had
spent nearly year, to appear.
He had made arrangements to
contest the action as it affected
the division of the property.
His estate is rated at around
$1OO, 900 and is represented prin-
cipally by bank stock.
Mr.. Wilson served in congress
for the 1894-6 term as a republic
an and from 1899 to 1901 as a
silver republican, elected in fu-
sion with the democrats.

Frank H. La Rue shot and kill
ed his wife and then took his
own life in their rooms in Lewis
ton last Friday and the deed was
not discovered until the next
morning when Mrs. O. w. Travis.
mother of Mrs. La Rue, called
up the owner of the house in try
ing to locate her daughter. Mr..
and Mrs. La Rue had lost their
only child few days before and
grief over its death may have
caused the father to become
mentally deranged. Mrs. La Rue
was stopping with her mother
and stepped into her husbands
room Friday afternoon while TAX
ing a walk. She was not seen
alive again. Occupants of the
Sullivan house, where the shoot
ing occurred, did not hear the
shots fired and knew nothing of
the double killing until the bodies
were found the next morning.
Mrs. La Rue was only nineteen
years of age. 1t is said she had
been mistreated by her husband
and they were temporarily es-
tranged. Nothing has occurred
in Lewiston for years to create
such a shock to the community
as the La Rue killings.

|AMSTED REPORT
| MADE PUBLIC
Vas Read to Legislature After
the Governors Message and
Caused Much Comment
Deals with Allen Case.

Boise, Idaho, Jan. 5.-With a
crowd present almost as large as
the one that attended the inaugu-
ration, Governor Alexander read
Ms message to the joint session
Of the house and senate this
afternoon. 1t was followed by
The reading of the Ramstedt re-
hort, which was submitted by
the governor in conjunction with
his message.
The latter document was the
subject of more discussion than
vas the message. The reading
0f it came as a distinct surprise
10 nearly all the spectators and
10 many of the members.
The governors message was
received by the house with close
attention, and for the most part
the interest of the spectators
WAS sustained. The message
was a lengthy one, however,
and toward the close of it's read
ing signs of restlessness began
to appear.
Reading of the message re-
quired an hour and so minutes
and the Ramstedt report con-
sumed 20 minutes.
Hardly had the governor left
the hall when the legislature
Started putting into effect his
suggestions for economy. Sen
ator Pugmire, democrat, moved
that 5000 copies of the govern
or's message be ordered printed.
Johnston of Bingham, republi-
Gan, amended the motion so that
1000 copies would be printed but
The type left standing so that
more could be struck off if it
we're found they were needed.
Ia the face of some slight opposi-
zion, led by Anderson, t h e
amended motion was carried.
The joint session then disolv-
ed. The senate adjourned un-
til 10 O'Clock tomorrow morning
but the house will not convene
until 2 o'clock in the afternoon.
1t is awaiting a report from the
rules committee.
The Ramstedt report contains
an abstract of items that go to
make up the Allen and Coleman
defalcations. 1t says:
