SOLID WALL OF FIRE
SWEEPS THROUGH IDAHO
Butte. Aug. 1. A. wall of fire five
or ten miles In width Is sweeping
through the forests of Idaho to the
.Montana elde near Trout Creek. Mont.,
according to reports from western
Montana today. Strong, winds caused
the fires to break forth with renewed
vigor and the situation Is alarming.
The forestry service is calling avail
able men to the scene. The flames
nt Lole today are reported beyond
control despite the 260 men fighting.
BELIEVES ACCUSED MAX
SHOULD HE HEAHD
New York, Aug. 1. Frederick Mes
singer, step-father of Mrs. Crlppen. Is
ready to go to London to appear
against Crlppen. He believes how
ever, Crlppen will be given a chance
to tell his story. "I reared Belle as
my own child. She seemed happy with
Crippen and I believe they were hap
py until the other woman entered. Th
doctor was evidently taken by the
other woman's youthful charms. If
Crippen is guilty as the London police
suspect, he should suffer the penalty
of his crime. I think he should,' how
ever, be given an opportunity to tell
his story and explain what he can."
CHAMPIONSHIP TO BE
DECIDED ON ZAMBESI
London. Ernest Barry, the English
rowing champion, and, Richard Arnst,
the New Zealand champion, will meet
for the world's sculling championship
on the Zambesi river in South Afri
ca, on the 18th of August.
It Is Impossible to tell from th's
distance what form Arnst Is in, al
though recent dispatches say he Is In
the pink of fettle. Barry' went away
prepared for the climax of his aquat
ic fareer.
The coming championship meet has
brought forward the name of William
Beach of Melbourne, Australia, who
won the championship from Edward
Harlan, of Toronto, Canada, in a race
on the Parametta river. In Australia,
and defended the title successfully
against Jacob Gaudaur of St. Louis
on the Thames river, in England.
After this victory Beach retired
and turned the championship over to
H. E. Searle, a young Australian oars
man. Searle defeated W. O'Connor
for the championship, then died. Some
persons believed that Searle was a
greater oarsman than Beach.
There was, however, only little dif
ference between Beach, Hanlon and
Gntidaur, when in their 'prime. When
Beach beat Hanlon in Australia, Am
erican an, Canadian oursmen thought
the Antipodean had a decided shade
over Hani. in, inasmuch as the race
was rowed over a course that jieach
was thoroughly familiar with. Han
Ian made the long Trip for the race
and had little or no acquaintance with
the Parametta river where the contest
was held.
Beach is now living a retired life.

But Mrs. llayis said she was pre
pared for what was coming and was

PENITENT WIFE CREEPS
AS SIGN OF CONTRITION
Chicago. As a sign of repentance
after abandoning an affinity, the wife
of J. Anderson of Waukegan crawled
on her hands and knees from her
r sidence to the residence of the Rev.
Father Kruszas, a block away. An
person walked beside his wife and the
mother of his children, goading her
to her penitent task.
After four days in the company of
Joseph Grick, Mrs. Anderson came
back to the family residence. She fell
sobbing at the feet of her husband.
For her children's sake she urged
Anderson to forgive her. The four
little ones had been crying for their
mother ever since she left and An
drrson promised his forgiveness If the
vifo would first perform some pen
anee as a sign of her contrition.
"I'll do anything you want if you
will enly take me ba"k. I want my
husband nnd my children." she cried.
Anderson considered for a moment
and then, requiring her to maintain
her nititude of humility, he told her
'to crawl on her hands and knees after
him. He strode Into the street and
led the sobbing, creeping woman down
the street toward the house of the
rriest. A crowd followed them until
they entered the residence of Father
Kruszas.
The crowd waited. Finally the hus
band and wife emerged, arm in arm

Coaches and is Run Over by Wheels
Head ami Hand Cut Off.
Jim Guyer, well know reservation
Indian, whose tribal name was Alou
skin, was run over and killed by a
train jn the local O. R. & X yards,
Saturday night about 11 o'clock. He
had crawled underneath a train of
paseuger coaches to sleep and when
the switch engine drew the coaches
out onto the main track his head was
torn off and one hand was severed.
In the absence of Coroner Folsom.
Justice of the Peace Joe H. Parkes
held an inquest over the remains, the
Jury simply finding that the Indian
came to his death as stated above
and no 'blame was attached to any
one.
It seems tha while slightly under
the influence of liquor and desiring
to get away from some other Indians.
Guyer had gone down to me depot,
crawled under the Spokane train
which was standing on the side track
and went to sleep. How long he had
been there no one knows.
A few minutes after 11 o'clock, the
coaches having been cleaned, were
coupled onto the switch engine to be
drawn out for service. A brakebeam
is supposed to have caught the sleep
ing Indian In the mouth, tearing off
the entire upper portion of his face
and head. When struck the Indian
had evidently involuntarily thrown
out his hand, which was severed,
enie of the fingers were also cut off.
Guyer wis about 41 years of nge
and an nliotte,. on the reservation.
He was a cousin of Joe Craig and
made his home with the well know
erterpreter. He was fairly well edu
