OFFER REWARDED
APPREHENSION Of
CATTLE SLAYERS

A reward OF 500 has been offered
by the county court for informs alton
leading to the arrest and conviction
OF the party or parties guilty OF the
malicious killing of cattle In the
Murphy district. The sherin's oflice
has obtained a number OF piacards
giving notice OF the reward and these
are being posted In the Applegate val
ley. where they viii come 10 the no.
tice OF all interested parties.
A great deal OF feeling Is being
aroused by the dastardily killing OF
tho seven or eight head OF cattle. and
II the responsible persons are appre.
hcnded they will no doubt DO suitably
punished. Some OF the cattle killed
are said to have been steers fat
enough to have made excellent beef.
bat they were shot down and left to
rot In the hills, Suspicion is said to
have been directed In one direction,
and when investigation was carried
forward the parties suspected OF
knowledge Of the affair maintained
that no firearms were ever kept upon
the premises. II Is believed that the
Offering OF the reward will bring out
the evidence sought and place the
blame where II belongs.

for killing Clarence Dalquist, musi-
elan, Herman J. Rossi, one OF Idaho's

while Rossi was In Boise. Liquor 10
declared TO have been drunk during
the visit,
Rossi returned from Boise late the
following afternoon. He won't direct
