eetllement,
lime after
The (knee
E. Benjamin, familiarly
I? ml Hon juin in , was phot to
dance in the Underwood
Skamania county, a short
midnight Sunday morning
wae uiven nt the home of William Wen
dorf, whose place ifl a mile and a half
from the Underwood landinc.
About 1 o'clock yesterday morning,
when the dance was at its height in the
barn about three rods from the huiiee, a
party of pleasure-seekers, Benjamin
among them, left the hall and gathered
in the dining-room of the Wendorf resi
dence, where refreshments were being
served. Seated at the table there were,
besides Benjamin, Mr. and Mrs. David
eon, Ellis Baker, Abraham AnieB, Will
in ni Underwood, Miss Maggie Under
wood, Mrs. Nellie Brown, William Jones,
Mrs. Oleen, P. L. Burns and Miss Adie
Burns.
Benjamin sat near the window, and
next to him was Mrs. Nellie Brown.
Suddenly the ui embers of the party were
-startled by a shot through the window.
As they rose in alarm from their seats,
they saw Benjamin reel and fall on his
face, with his arms doubled up under
dim. He had been instantly killed.
The bullet entered the brain behind the
left ear and passed out below the left
eye. The shot was fired at such close
range that the room was filled with
powder smok, showing that the mur
derer must have placed hiB weapon
against the window in order to take
carpful aim.
Mrs. Brown was struck in the shoul
der by a portion of the bullet, which
eplit in the flight, receiving a Blight
wound.
The authorities suspect a man named
Green, who has been employed about
the settlement for some months, and
who was known to bear Benjamin ill
Trill. Benjamin 'was employed by Nicho
lai & Cameron as the foreman of their
logsting camp on the White Salmon,
where Green was an employe until his
jealousy of Benjamin caused him t
leave the camp, after a violent outbreak
-of temper. It is said that Green had be
come insanely jealous of a woman in
tbat neighborhood to whom he imagined
Benjiinin had paid some attention.
'Once he became so frenzied that he
threatened Benjamin with a shot gun,
swearing, he would kill him if he re
gained in the vicinity. To these threats
Benjamin at first paid little attention.
He finally concluded that Green was
dangerous, and swore out a warrant for
ins arrest on a charge of threatening to
kill. This warrant was never served, as
3reen suddenly disappeared from the
camp. Nothing wae heard of him until
Saturday, when he was seen by several
persons near White Salmon, carrying a
rifle. Search for him has been going on
.since the murder, with no result.
Benjamin leaves a wife, who, with her
mother, resides on a ranch in tiie Hood
'River valley. He is well and favorably
known in The D.tlles, w here he used to
run the woodsaw now owned by Mr.
Julian. He was an Odd Fellow and iiIho
a member of the A. O. U. W., in which
order he carried a $2000 policy of insur
ance. "So ltUHIi nil KiiM-rven.
If the ideas of Commissioner Hermann
tire carried out, there will be quite a

Washington and Idaho, enlargements

though he think? some reductions should
'lie made, particularly in Washington,
pays a Washington Dispatch. The corn
miHiont'r recently transmitted to the
pfcretary of the interior a very full
statement on the proposed enlargements,
as well aj on the now reserves y these
and oilier states. Summed up, on the
basis of thes" recommendation?, Oregon
is to have U00,a20 acres of additional re

daho 8-10,009 acrec, not including a re

'Eastern Oregon and Wuhhiugtou, em

The liirgest change recommended in
Oregon h the new reserve in Southwest

counties, which is to embiiice in all lOU,-
W0 iicreri. This reserve is between sev
enty nnd eighty miles in length, and is
intended to protect the headwaters of
tiie ltogiiu and tributary rivers. The
flUti'intuit is inudu that although the
rainfall in tins miction is very heavy,
the streams are getting lower and lower
aoh summer, and some fear lias been
x preened that if a forest reserve is not
created to protect the headwaters of
these streams, it will lie hut a matter of
a few years before many of the streutnu
