ELGIN MEN RETURN , , - . - CiAbU Anxiety Felt by Rela tives, Finally Relieved, - ... . After days of anxiety on the part of their relatives and friends, Henry Parsons, Cap Tuttle and Hugo Khng- naminer, iucui icsuieuia, local residents, returned home Tuesday evening after an ab sence of 14 days spent in search of lost horses on tjhe Minam range, says the Elgin Recorder. The trio started for the, range af ter Christmas, expecting to be gone not more than a week in search of five head of horses which were not located during previous roundups. The week passed, during which time it was continually snowing, and with each (succeeding day of absence anxiety as to their probable safety increased. Sunday and Monday of this week came nnd no word came from them with the result that Monday several other stockmen organized a party and set out to locate them. At that time the trio was riding the range on the lower Minam and started for homo Tuesday morning, coming by way of Bunch Grass trail, while the search- in( party went by way of Chalk Lick trail, missing them. Members of tho searching pnrtv soon ascertained the facts nnd immediately returned home. Hugo Klinghammer, who was one of the three young men for whose safety fear was entertained, ex plained their unexpected absence by s-tntiiig they were unable to locate the 2 Days Only Primrose Bayard Veilles Dramatic Masterpiece p-i A Sensational Triumph Gee!

They failed to locate a single horse of the five for which they were riding and express the opinion that they are snow bound in some inaccessible place. They rode to a point on the lower range where two head had been left a couple of weeks before, and found one of them dead and half de voured by coyotes. The location of the carcas was such that the animal is thought to have slide down the mountain-side, resulting in its death. The dead horse belonged to Luther Hindman. , Of the missing horses Klingham- mcrs own two; Parsons, two and Cap , Tuttle one.

Whila riHinn at n noint cIosa to the location of where Klinghammer and others captured two cub bear a few years ago, they discovered the den of a female1 bear. They aroused the sleeping bruin and as she poked her head outside the den Klinghammer shot her in the head. ' Apparently the , bullet ranged downward and failed to take effect. The animal backed into the den and refused to come out. By tantalizing and tormenting her for several minutes they again compelled her to show up' at the entrance and thfe second shot resulted fatally. They pulled the dead animal outside the deb' and removed the hide which Klinghammer says is the best fur he, ever saw. The bear was killed in Identically the same location where the two cubs were captured and she Is 'thought to have been the mother of them. Her den was located under a monster fir tree on a steep hill side. HUERTA'S BODY HELD. (Continued From Page One) February 19, 1913.

Soon after Huerta seized the pres idency, the world was horrified to learn that President Madero and Vice President Suarez had been as sassinated as they were being taken from the president's palace to a prison.
