MISTAKEN FOR DEER,
HUNTER FATALLY SHOT.
M. v. Snyder Victim Of Mistake
While Stalking Deer on Lo
Lo.-Nezpercers Give

Martin Y. Snyder, a well known
pioneer of the Weippe section,
was fatally shot by companion
while deer hunting on the Lo LO
last Friday and succumbed to his
wound at the White Hospital in
Lewiston Monday. A party of
hunters from Nezperce, composed
Of j. NJ. Smith, Lester Delp, C. G.
and Fred Hess, which was eamped
near the camp of Mr.. Snyder's
party, helped bring the wounded
man out over a rough mountain
trail to the wagon road, and de-
scribed the fatal mishap substan-
tally as it is given in the follow
ing story from the Lewiston Tri-
bune of Tuesday:
Martin " Snyder, resident of
the Weippe section who was mis-
taken for a deer and shot by Geo.
Williams Friday, died Monday
morning at the White hospital and
The remains were shipped to Greer
that afternoon. The funeral was
conducted at Weippe Wednesday.
Mr Snyder was shot through
the left thigh, the bullet entering
near the hip, the thigh bone being
badly shattered. The shooting
took place on the breaks of Lolo
creek and it was over five hours
from the time Of the shooting be-
fore Mr.. Snyder was carried to
the headquarters camp on the
Musselshell. He suffered much
from the shock and also from the
cold and the loss of blood and his
death was probably due to expos
ure and absence of scientific treat
ment Immediately following the
shooting.
The hunting party of which Mr..
Snyder was a member was CON-
posed of George Williams and
Herbert White Of the Weippe sec
tion, and John Blair and w. II.
Mitchell, of Lewiston The party
was organized Friday to drive
thicket on the benches of the Lolo
creek breaks and Mr.. Snyder was
to take a position on a deer pass
below the thickef. Messrs. Mitch
ell and Blair were left on cross
ingS near the top of the ridge and
MeSSrS. Williams and White went
into the thicket to make the drive.
There was a good covering of
snow and and when Mr.. Snyder
reached his stand, he saw fresh
tracks of two deer that had pass
ed into the thicket from the lower
side. He left the stand to follow
these tracks in hope that he might
drive the deer to Mitchell or Blair.
In the meantime White and Will
liams were driving the thicket
from the opposite direction and
when White heard a crash IN the
brush, both he and Williams stop
ped 70 listen. Williams saw what
he thought was deer pass be-
hind a small fir and raised his
gun and fired, the bullet striking
Snyder in the left thigh as stated.
Snyder called that he was shot
and both Williams and White has
tened to his side. Blair was sum-
but Mitchell was beyond
hearing and did not know Of the
until several hours later.
1t was necessary to leave Snyder
lying in the snow while his CON-
constructed a stretcher
from their coats. It was nearly
a mile to the top of the ridge and
the three men had a most difficult
task in carrying their wounded
companion over the rough coun-
try. The camp was reached about

Halifax, Dec. With the toll
Of dead steadily mounting, It was
believed early this morning that
more than two thousand persons
perished in the explosion and fire
which followed the collision yes
terday morning in Halifax harbor
between a munitions laden French
ship and another vessel loaded
with supplies for the Belgian re-
lief commission.
The disaster which plunged
the dominion into mourning prob
ably viii rank as the most fear
ful that ever occurred on the
American continent. Residents of
Halifax and thousands of volun-
feer relief workers who have come
into the city have been almost
dazed at the extent of the horror.
Virtually every building in the
city which could be converted into
hospital. is filed with wounded,
many of them so desperately in
jured that there is no hope of their
recovery. Scores already have
died in these temporary hospitals.
An ever increasing number is be-
ing taken from the completely
devastated Richmond district to
the relief station.
Freezing cold and heavy snow

wounded and shelterless in this
blasted city today.
Red Cross First to Aid.
Washington, Dec. 6.-Aid for
the stricken city of Halifax was

six experienced disaster relief
workers with quantities Of SUR

from New York carried food, mat
tresses, blankets, sweaters, over
coats and a large quantity Of
clothing for women and children.
Immediately after news came Of
the disaster the Red Cross began
