Repairs for Any Make of Bicycle at Smiths CKEAMERY BUILDING Agent for Cleveland Bicyclee SOME DETAILS Of WALLOWA MURDER Last Monday evening in the town of Enterprise, about 7 o'clock. "Brick" Johnson, bartender at Fritz Olt's saloon, was shot and instantly killed by John Bare. . - Bare and a number of companions had been drinking during the day and just previous to the tragedy "Brick" Johnson had ordered them out of the saloon. Bare immediately went to his home se cured hie 50-50 rifle; before leaving his home his wife endeavored to stop him from taking the gun and was knocked down a couple times by her enraged hus band. After leaving the bouse he met Carl Horner who tried to take the rifle away from him but did not succeed. Bare informing Horner that he was going down town to give the fellows a good time. He passed through a livery stable an told the hostler to saddle a horse for him as he would be back in a few minutes. Pass ing in through the back door of Ott's saloon. Bare came to the end of the bar and taking deliberate aim at "Brick" Johnson, who was sitting on the bar talk ing to Fritz Ott, Frank Ott and Wm. Hammock, shot him in the back of the head, the bullet Uaring the top of "Brick's" head off. Bare threw another cartridge into his rifle and passed out the back door, went to the livery stable for horse, hostler in formed him there was not a saddle ani mal in barn., Bare threatened to kill hostler, who made a flying jump over a six foot door and escaped. Bare then held up a boy named McAnulty who was accompany him. Just at this time Sheriff Blakely arrived on the scene with a borrowed rifle and opened fire on Bare; the third ehot wounded the pony and upon trying to fire fourth shot, Blakely discovered that the magazine ' was empty and rifle . useless. Bare dropped upon his knee, using Mc Anulty boy for shield, drew a bead on Blakely and told him to "hit the hike." Bare then continued his flight on foot, and from traces discovered next morning, it is supposd that he passed part of the night in a small canyon about one mile from Enterprise, At this place he expected to make a stand as he had barricaded himself with a wall of rocks. Marshall E. W. Wagner of Joseph, was telephoned for; he and deputy sheriff S. D. Keltner and others sent the night in the hills around Enterprise, but found no trace of Bare. Tuesday morning about nine o'clock a email posse was organized and started on the man hunt The posse left Enterprise about 10 o'clock Tuesday morning and made lor the brakee of the Imnaha and Snake river, but afer covering the ground as thoroughly as possible they found no trace of Bare, and Sheriff Blakely and Marsha. Wagner returned into the valley Wednes day evening seeking a clue whereby they might locate the direction Bare took. It is almost an impossible task to find Bare with the start that he had, as he knowe every foot of the country and if he once reached the brakes of the Imnaha ha would be safe from discovery for the present. Bare has the reputation of be ing a very cool, nervy man, also one of the best rifle ehots in the valley; if the posse comes up with him and he resists several lives will be lost before he is captured.
