IN JAIL ON A CHARGE OF MUR- DER-FRIGWHTFUL TORTURE IN- PLIGTED UPON HE YOUNG IN- DIAN. ~ Seattle, Wash, May 18. -In jail at Juneau awaiting trial on the charge of murder, is Chief Ye Feetleeh, the Tyee of the Hoonan Indians a small tribe oc- cupylug Chicki Koff Island, one hun- dred. miles south of Juneau. , 'The offense with which the old chief is charged is the murder, by torture, of his nephew ,whom he accused of witch craft. | \Phe chtef had a disease affecting his right leg, which had gradually gaten the greater part away. He dreamed that his nephew had bewitched him, and on the strength of this he proceeded to inflict punishment to fit the crime. The victim's knees were bent close back and in this position he was bound tightly to nitree. An iron pangl was then placed around his face sinking in- to the nose and covering the eyes and this was also made fast to the tree, so that he was unable to move his head in any direction. He was left in this posi- tion to starve to death. He lived five days. He was about 20 years of age. Some years ago the same chief put two women of his tribe to death in the same manner. Crimes of the kind are not uncommon among the Alaska Indians. The widow of the dead man was ap- propriated by the chief and is now, with two of his other wives, sharing his cap- tivity voluntarily. putchess of Marlborough Formerly. Miss Vanderbilt.

OFF FOR MOSCOW. Opening of the Fetes of - the Coronation. RUSSIA TAKES A VACATION. CEREMONIES - WILL CONTINUE UNTIL JUNE 7, DURING WHICH TIME SCENES OP SUCK SPLEN- DOR AS THE WORLD NEVER WIPNESSED WILL BE ENACTED. St. PETERSBURG. May 18 -The czar and czarins, with their infant daughter, the Grand Duchess Olga Nicolaieyna, accom- panied by a numerous suite and by the whole of the imperial household, took their departure for Moscow. 'The august'ceremony of the coronation f the czar and czarina, and the fetes which precede and follow that event, will fill up the time constantly from now un- til June ?, which is the date fixed on for the return of the imperial party to St. Potersburg. ~ The train which carrics the imperial pair to the ancient capital of Holy Russia was especially built throughout for this journey and is said to be the finest that ever rode on rails. 'The appointments and finish of it are on a scale of magnifi- cence in harmony with everything else conné_ted with the coronation, for which the most lavish expenditure has not been spared,,even for the minutest details, No specd record is attempted with the imperial train, the safety and comfort of the august inmates being the sole con- siderations. - All traffic ceased over the line before the departure of the train from hore, and no other wheels than those of this train will run at the same time on the tracks between here and Moscow. The line between St. Petersburg and Moscow runs almost in a straight line for the 400 miles. It is related that when the engineer appointed to build the line ap- pealod to the old czar for his orders re- garding the route, he placed a ruler upon the map and drew a straight line between the two cities, thus solving the engineer- ing difficulties with an autocratic hand. 'Today the 40) miles of the line are guarded by a double guard of soldiers. Every detail of the journey and of the coremony in Moscow have been arranged for months, an army of officials having been engaged upon the work in this city, amid much stir and excitement and in- tense anxioty. 'To facilitate their work, wooden models were constructed of all the various build- ings at Moscow in which the more impor- tant ceremonies will be enacted, exactly in proportion and relation, so that the program of the coronation has been pre- cisoly arranged and gone through with in miniature. The arrival of the czar and czarina at the Petrovsky palace, outside Moscow, is timed for today, which is the anniversary of his majesty's birthday. 'This is being celebrated today at the Petrovsky paince, where thoir majesties will remain until Thursday, May 21, the date fixed for the triumphal entry of the czar into Moscow, which is to be one of the most imposing spectacles in all the ceremonics attendant upon the coronation. Demonstration In Paris, PARIS, May 18. -Several thousand per- sons took part in a manifestation near the statue of Jeanne d'Arc, demanding the establishment of a national fete in her honor. 'They afterward marched to the newspaper offices, shouting \A bas Roche- fort.\ 'The police had to make several charges before the mob was dispersed and several arrests were made. Numerous Arrests In Constantinople. COXSTAXNTINOPLE, May 18.--Over 1,500 Armpnians have been arvested in the cap- ital during the last fortnight owing to apprehensions of fresh manifestations by the Armenian population. Efty-two Ar- menians and 16 Turks were also exiled to Asia minor and 73 Turkish students at the military college at Kuleli were ar- rested for some unknown cause. Order Restored In Corea. St. PETERSBURG, May 18. -A dispatch from Vladivostock says that quiet has been restored at Seoul and that the king will return to his palace from the Rus- sian legation, where he has been since the deposition and massacre of the late min- istry.

Terrific Explosion In Africa. Brass, Coast of West Africa, May 18.- An explosion at Dida, in the Nupe coun- try, on the Niger river, has razed to the ground the palace of the emir, Maleki, and has killed 200 people. Some 'of the Belgian coal mines are wonderfully deep. In a pit at Flenu coal is now being \got\ 3,700 feet below 'the surface.

TOPEKA, May 18.-A funnel shaped cy- clone struck the north part of the town of Subctha, a small place northeast of here, near the Nobraska line, destroying the Grand Island railroad depot and elevator and ubout 20 residences. Twenty or 25 people were wounded, several of whom will die. Twenty families were rendered homeless, losing everythfing they had. The cyclone passed off toward Fall City and evidently did great damage. Owing to darkness and heavy rain, particulars are hard to obtain at this hour. ’ Earlier in the evening a cyclone was seen to form over the town of Miltonvale, Kan., and struck the ground a few miles out of town, but did not do much damage there. It is probable this is the same cy- glone that struck Sabctha. Destruction of Life and Property. KaxsAS CITY, May 18. -Reports received here indicate that the cyclone which passed over Marshall ard Nemaha coun- tics, Kansas, ewept over an unusually large territory, dealing death and destruc- tion through the two counties. A dis- patch from Bern, Nemaha county, reports that Seneca, the county sert, was struck by a cyclone. 3110 third of the residence portion of the town was destroyed, and five persons were killed and 15 badly in- jured. 'The county's magnificent new court house, the town's big school house and the Catholic church are among the buildings wrecked. Five hundred of the citizens of Seneca are reported to be homeless. , The property loss is estimated at $100,- 000. » The five dead are two children of M. Everhes, two children of Mr. Connell and a son of Peter Assemacher. The cyelone also swept the towns of Sa- betha, Nemaha county, and Frankfort, Marshall county, and the reports indicate that many other smaller settlements have suffered, but up to this hour it has been impossible to get detailed accounts of the damage. Buildings Demolished; Many Injured. FRANKFORT, Kan., May 18. -A terrific cyclone swept down upon the town of Frankfort from the southwest. Every- thing in the north and west ends of the town was@completely wrecked. Probably three score of buildings were iazed to the ground. . Some of the best residences of the town were blown to atoms, reports coming in has been done, will materially swell the loss. - Many are supposed to have been pain- fully injured, but so far as known no one has been killed. Many horses, cattle and other stock have been killed. The Methodist and Christian churches were demolished and the Presbyterian church was badly wrecked. Scores of people who are left homeless are being cared for in public halls and in the homes of the more fortunate citizens. No More Bodies Found. SHERMAN, Tex., May 18. -Nomore bodies have been foun in the track of the tor- nado, although many thousands have fol- lowed it from one end to the other. A detached arm and hand were found ' in a ravine near the Washington avenue bridge. It is believed to belong to the badly mutilated body of one of the col- ored victims who was killed in Houston street, four blocks away. - There have been but two deaths at the hospitals in the last 24 hours, Miss Sophia Pierce and Mattie Lake, colored. Tore a Gap Through the Town, SABETHA, Kan., May 18. - A cyclone from the Southwest struck Sabetha and tore an ugly gap through the business and residence portions of the town. A score of buildings were destroyed and sev- eral persons badly injured, two of whom will probably die. IMPORTED BUTTER ANALYZED. Report of the Agricmtm'n] Department as to Adulteration. WASHINGTON, May 18. -In a communi- cation recently received from the British of Agriculture Dabney, a return is made of simples of imported butter analyzed 'under the direction of the board from May 1895, to February, 1896, inclusive. The total number of samples so analyzed was 995, representing the products of 12 different countries. . The countries in whose products adul terated specimens were found were as fol- lows: Belg im, 5 samples, 1 adulterated; Denmark, 1 !: samples, 8 adulterated; Germany, 1. samples, 48 adulterated; Holland, 250 samples, 66 adulterated; Nor- way and Sweden, 109 samples, 2 adulter ated; Russia, 49 samples, 5 adulterated. The cou tries contributing samples among which no adulterated specimens were found are: Argentina, 4 samples; Austria, 57; Canada, 30; France, 62; New Zealand, 21; United States, 68 samples. In regard to the adulterated products, the noteworthy points are the tremendous proportion of specimens, over 834 per cent from Germany; the large proportion, numbering over 25 per cent contributed from Holiand;-and the fact that Denmark, butter products to the British market and enjoying hitherto an almost irreproach- able reputation in the butter market, should have contributed on a total of 182 specimens, eight adulterated, or nearly 5 per cent. In regard to the other countries, the presence of Argentina in the British butter market, even though no doubt to a very limited extent, is worthy of note. Methodist Episcopal Conference. CLEVELAND, May 18. -The delegates to the Methodist Episcopal general confer- ence found time to discuss politics in con- nection with the election- of the bishops. The failure of any of the leading candi- dates to receive s two-thirds vote has in- spired talk to the effect that a motion will be made today to change the rule so as to provide that the election shall be by a majority instead of a two-thirds. It is also said that a motion will be made to elect three instead of two bishops. It is not believed, however, that either of these motions will prevail. + ¥ Shirts an very low prices. pearl buttons pocket...... f 10. Doz. Mens' Medium mAGG............ hi....

SOME ARE FITTED FOR LIFE,AND OTHERS ARE UNFIUTIED BY COLLEGE TRAINING. Rev. Charles H. Parkhurst, D. D., in his appeal to young men,in May Ladies' k \Shall We Send Our Boy to CoHege ?\ answering the query with the assertion, \That de- pends a great deal on the boy.\ He an- nounces himself to be a thorough be- liever in the college, but holds that \it might not be best for him (our boy) to go to college; it might not be best for the community that he should. College can fit a man for life, and, also, it.can unfit him, There are styles of educa- tion that disqualify the student for do- ing what he is competent to do, with- out qualifying him to do that which he might like to do, but for which lhe lacks, and always will lack, the prere- quisites. * * As a general princi- ple, the more a man knows the better, but so long as the present order of things continues a great amount of very ordinary work will require to be done; and ordinary people will do or- dinary work better than extraordinary people will, and be a great deal more comfortable while doing it. Hordes of both sexes are entering college for the reason that they do not enjoy doing commonplace things. 'The result is that commoplace things are left undone, and uncommonplace things fare still worse. Agriculture is the material basissof a nation's strength and pros- perity.. We could dispense wtih either lawyers, doctors or ministers better than we could, with farmers. Probably we should not quarrel so much if there were fewer students of the law; should notbe sick so much if there were fewer students of medicine, and should not be so wicked if there were fewer stu- dents of theology. All of these could contribute liberally to th rauks of the agriculturalists with advantage to the professions and to the grain and vege- table markets. I am not disparaging anybody, niether am I saying that it would not be a good thing, in itself considered, if every one, however ma- terial or menial his occupaiton, could receive all that the finest school or col- lege training could confer; but that is not practicable at present, and never will be till people get ovr thinking that there is a disgrace attaching to the do- + ing of ordinary things.\ »00, | largest labor demonstrations ever se Prairie, Clallum County, in thé dense -- VENEZUELA WILL PAY. - TBE URUAN INCIDENT TO BR SETTLED FOR AS PERSONAT: DAMAGES ONLY. - Caracas, Venezuela,.
