I TRIED AT SPOKANE
Shaw nee Wheat Canes Sent Out
of This County.
Prosecution Was Madly Surprised
Ry This Totally Unexpect
ed Move.
Judge Mi-Donald of flit' superior court
sprung a great surprise Monday on the
prosecution in the cases of (.'bus. Ue
Prance and H. E. Elliott, charged with
grand larceny of wheat from the Shaw
nee warehouse. With the opening of
court the defense filed a number of affi
davitn alleging prejudice throughout the
county against Mr. De France and
Klliott, and setting forth the assertion
that a lair and impartial trial could not
be had in Whitman county. The aili
davits were made by the defendants
themoelveß, .1. W. iliggins, Win. Earl,
Ben .Manchester. (}eorge Batzard, J. I).
Elliott, <i. C. Thatcher, C. B.Thompson,
(!. W. Ford. W. A. Maguire, F. W.
Brickner, L. B. McKay and \V. 11. Price.
Special Prosecutor Reed comhatted
thin Btep with affidavits by Wax. Hoare,
(i. 1.. Pajne, .John Hart, (J. \V. Barker,
.1. I). Ellis. E. T. Cotnan, Julius Lippitt,
Prank Ifagaire, S. ('. Armstrong, Alfred
Coolidee and C. E. Scriber. Mont of
these gentlemen were charged in the
affidavits for a change of venue with
circulating the report that the defend
ants are guilty and thereby creating un
due prejudice against them. These
gentlemen denied the allegations and
asserted that a fair trial could be had.
No argument of the matter was per
mitted and Judge McDonald granted a
change of venue to Spokane county.
The move was a complete and con
founding surprise to the prosecution, »;e
these lawyers had been led into the be
lief that no change of venue would be
granted, but that another judge would
sit in the trials. Judge McDonald had
npplied, as they knew, to Governor
Rogers for another judge. The governor
sent Judge Kean of Tacoma. but just
before his arrival Judge McDonald
grouted the change of venue.
The attorneys for the prosecution re
fuse to abide by the order of Judge Mc-
Donald granting the change of venue.
appeal has been taken to the supreme
court, for two reasons—that the grant
ing of the motion was an abuse of the
dii-eretiou of the court, and that the
court was disqualified from rendering a
fair and impartial, or any, decision in
the case.
Jury Found Insanity.
I pon his arrival Judge Kean opened
the trial of Lark David of Palouae,
charged with stealing a horse and saddle
from Wm. (iribble. David is an adopt
ed son of Mr. and Mrs. C. K. David of
near Palouee, He was put upon trial
under his true name of John 11. Davis.
He was defended by Trimble & Pattison.
Since his arrest strong efforts have been
marie by his parents and friends to
prove insanity. In a hearing had a few
days before the trial David was pro
nounced snne by physicians. Neverthe
less, his defense was based upon the plea
of insanity, and a jury found him not
guilty because of insanity. The jury
bung oat through Tuesday night anil
until Wednesday afternoon at 2 o'clock,
standing at eleven for acquittal because
of insanity to one for conviction. The
evidence that he took the horse was
conclusive.
David whs immediately rearrested up
on nn Idaho warrant for grand larceny.
The charge is one of stiling several cords
oi wood not his. If he is not extradited
upon this charge steps will probably be
taken to send him to the Medical Lake
asylum for insane, where the jury says
he belongs.
Disposal of these cases brought an
adjournment of the court Wednesday
evening until Monday, when the murder
case of Wong Ype, a Chinaman, i« set
down for trial. Judge Kean will remain
and try the case.
Nessly Discharged.
The more or less celebrated case
against J. E. Nessly, charged with im
proper conduct while a deputy sheriff
during populist rule, over which he and
Judge McDonald have been having so
much trouble, was discharged from the
docket Tuesday by Judge Kean. The
motion fur dismissal wus made by Judge
Hanua, Nessly's attorney, and seconded
by Prosecutor Inmau, who stated that
he had been promised time and again
convicting evidence in the case, but that
it was nor forthcoming and he had no
other alternative than to agne to dis
missal. Judge McDonald was rather
furious.
Clifford As a Witness
W. H. Clifford, servinir a sentence of
three years for larceny of grain from the
Shawnee warehouse, was brought up
Sunday from the Walla Walla peniten
tiary by Sheriff Canutt. He was return
ed on an order from Judge McDonald to
be used as a witnessin the trials of Chae.
De France acd R. E. Elliott. Hut with
the change of venue in teese cases crant
ed by the court there was no use for
him and he was returned to the peniten
tiary Wednesday in charge of Deputy
Sheriff Carter. Clifford is employed in
the jute mill.
Forty Pound Fleece.
11. S. Hollingsworth returned a few
days ago from Sacramento, California,
with a band of blooded sheep. One
French Merino buck, purchased by him
for Phil Cos, furnished a wool 'fleece
soon after arrival weighing 40 pounds.
The average clip of Paloaae sheep is ten
to twelve pounds. Mr. Hollingsworth
brought SKS bead altogether, purchased
from Glide, the famous California
breeder.
Census of Col lax.
The census enumeration of Colfax is
complete, but Enumerator Smith is not
permitted by his instructions to giv? the
result until tabulated and verified at
headquarters. It is not probable, how
ever, that the population of Colfax, as
shown June 1, will reach 2500. June is
a bad time to enumerate in Colfax, as
hundreds who make the town their home
during the winter months are absent
then.
Fourth at Farmington.
__ Farmington celebrated the glorious
Fourth in a befitting and patriotic way.
The News told the whole story, referring
particularly to a Colfax lover of sports
as follows: "The crowd then repaired
to the baseball grounds where the most
closely contested game of the season j
took place with about 700 people to i
witness the fun. The game was called I
promptly at 3:15. George Donovan, of
the Colfax nine, umpired the game, and
be is deserving of special mention for the
able and just manner which character
ized his work througont. 1'
Released From Jail.
Ed. Ellis, who has spent three months
at the county jail on a sentence of six
months' imprisonment and $500 fine
for an assault upon Robert Crabtree,
was released Tuesday by order of Judge
McDonald. He left at once for the
country, where he has employment.
THREE HUNDRED FIFTY LOSER
Fred Brown Out That Amount On
Stolen Cattle.
Fred Brown, the stock buyer, was a
few weeks ago beaten cut of $350 by a
cattle thief who gave his name as E. A.
Allen. The man telephoned Brown a
day or two before the purchase of 14
head of cattle and was met at Moscow
by Brown. Allen claimed to have
brought the cattle from Leland, Idaho.
His business was transacted in daylight
and Mr. Brown never Ruspicioned any
irregularity. He bought the fourteen
head for Carson Bros, of Seattle and
gave Allen a check for $.TSO.
Two or three days later a stockman
named j. W. Crea, and Sheriff McLean
of Idaho county, Idaho, who had tracked
the thief, appeared and took every hoof
of them from Brown. They had been
stolen from Crea at Carnas prairie, Idaho.
Mr. Brown had no recourse, as the
thief had cashed his check and disap
peared, but Sheriff McLean feels confi
dent that he will soon be apprehended,
as he is known to the Idaho officers.

A NtiW SCIENCE
Dr. Lillabelle Patterson, formerly of
Minneapolis and a graduate of the Nor
thern Institute of Osteopathy at that
place, has been in Colfax for several days
looking; the city over with the view of
opening an office here for the practice of
her profession. Being favorably im
pressed with her inspection of the city,
Dr. Patterson has concluded to locate
here and has opened offices in the Hoi
lingsworth cottage on Mill street, oppo
site the court house.
As there are many who do not yet un
derstand tire term "Osteopathy,"' or
what can be accomplished by this method
of treatment, Dr. Patternon gives the
following brief explanation, together
with a partial list of ailments in which
the therapeutic system she represents
has been particularly successful.
Osteopathy is the new science of cur
ing disease without the aid of drugs,
knife or stimulants. Although Osteop
athy is a drugless science, there is noth
ing miraculous or supernatural about
it. Its apparently marvelous cures are
effected by purely scientific methods and
an advanced understanding of the laws
of life. The Osteopath views the human
body as a highly organized and perfectly
constructed machine. Being equipped
with a thorough and minute knowledge
of anatomy and physiology, the Osteo
path is enabled to trace the origin of all
the ills of mankind to some abnormality
of bone, muscle, tendon, artery, vein or
nerve, and by the skillful readjustment
of the parts, to restore harmony to the
entire machine and thus enable nature
to reestablish perfect health. In brief,
Osteopathy is nothing more or less than
an adjustment of the abnormal con
ditions of the human body. With all
the members and parts of the body in
their proper position, and performing
their proper functions, we have a case of
perfect health.
The following is a partial lint of dis
eases, the causes of which are almost in
variably discovered and removed by
Osteopathy, thus ridding the patient of
the ailment: Cystitis, Neurasthenia,
Lumbago, Female Trouble, Constipa
tion, Necrosis, Prolapsus of Uterus, In
cipient Consumption, Tumors, Asthma,
Rheumatism, Dropsy, Obesity, Heart
Trouble, Dyspepsia,* Enlarged Glands,
Diabetes, Cancer, Hemorrhoids, Catarrii,
Dementia. Hip Joint Disease, Gastritin,
Myopia, Neuralgia, Bed Wetting, Im
potence, Deafness, Curvature of Spine,
Typhoid Fever, Conjunctivitis, Epilepsy,
Gastralgia, Vermination, Hernia, Bun
ions, Dislocated Joint, Sprained Joint,
Astigmatism, Strabismus. Paresis, Loco
motor Ataxy, Appendicitis, Polypus of
Xose, Goitre, Bronchitis, Yarieocele,
Leucoma, Chorea, Atrophy of Lirabp,
"Growing Paius," Varicose Veins, Lack
of Assimilation, Eczema, Enlarged Ton
sils, Tonsilitis, Gall Stones, Flux, Milk
Leg, Insomnia, Pterygium, Granulated
Eyelids, La Gripoe.
Dr. Patterson makes no charge for
consultation or examination, and will
be pleased to explain more fully her sys
tem of treatment to any who care to in
