ciate, instructions to no longer repre-
sent him before the commission.
Presiding Justice Hsnusn replied:
"Mr. Parnell will, of course, remain sub
jecG to the jurisdiction of t.iis court"

'xamine him IN regard to certain
cheques. The court, he declared, ought
to appoint day for his examination, if
any was required, or else it should DIS

JoHNsrowN.-A large mass-meeting of
citizens was held here Saturday after
noon to protest against the manner in
which the relief fund is being distributed.
Burgess Horrell in speech said the peo-
pie of the valley should themselves tend
to the disbursement of the crntribu-
tions as the state commission had
shown decided incapaeity for
the work, urging that relief fund be as
speedily as possible distributed III money
directly to the people to whose benefit it
was donated and that all purchases, con
tracts to be paid for out of the fund i'm
mediately cease.
Resolutions state that if the assertion
imputed to Governor Beaver, that mil
lion and half of dollars had already
ity has any foundation in fact, it is the
strongest possible argument that
the funds have not been wisely
disbursed. "Only by gross extravaganza
and careleesness could such a sum have
been used, and the people have received
no adequate return. A disbursement of
the fund directly will provide work for
builders and tr ade tor the merchants; will
stimulate BUSINESS restore confidence in
the community,snd directly and Indirectly
help those for whom the fund was in-
tended" The resolution closed with an
appeal to the custod ans of the funds at
Philadelphia, New York, Plttsburg and
other localities to transmit the funds in
their hands intended for the Conemaugh
Valley sufferers direct to the local finance
committee to be distributed in cash upon
acquisitions of the board of INQUIRY.
An additional resolution was passed re-
questing the state com mission to furnish
an itemized statement of expenditures to
date.

Corporal Tanner will be retired from

il the tariff system "~hich more than

LONGEVITY IN THE DESERT.
Aged Mission Indians, Among Whom Is One
120 Years Old.

Aged Mission Indians, Among Whom Is One
120 Years Old.
Deputy United States Marshal Ralph
Dominique, OF Los Angeles, tells the San
Diego Union very strange tale of the
extraordinary longevity of some Indians
upon whom he served SONS papers recent
ly.
Five Mission Indians were subpeua d
to testify in a case wherein the govern
ment is plaintiff The point involved is
as to whether or not the Indians shall be
maintained in the possession of the Pot
zero reservation, which comprises $1,000
acers of the tidest LAND in southern Cal
ifornia. The five Indians in question
we're wanted to testify As to how long they
had had possession of the reservation,
and their ages ranged from eighty to 120
years. Mr.. DomingGsz found them IN
the Yuma desert, about ten miles the
other side of Indio.
The eldest of the quintet was Juan
Sabichi, who had been on earth one
hundred and twenty years. Francisco
Apache was aged one hundred and fifteen
years. Juan Largo had only lived one
hundred years. Juan Cohuila was born
ninety-ive years ago. The youth of the
party was Chief Cabszon, who had only
tecOlecteu OL seeing eighty summers
pass.
Juan Sabichi and Franscisca Apache
recollect of the commencement of the
work on the mission at Potrero, which, as
a historical fact, was built one hundred
and ten years ago. They both assisted
in the construction of the antique temple,
as hey carried adobe and in that way
aided in the work. On account of their
extreme age they can hardly walk now,
but all things considered they are quite
'chipper."
Franscisca Apache was married four
teen ears ago, when he wss over one
hundred years old. In honor of his lui1n
to an Apache woman, wso on the occasion
was blushing bride of sixty summers, he
added tc his name the name of the tribe
his wife Sss a member of.
Four years ago the father of Chief Cab
izou died at the advanced age of one
hund. ed and forty years, and then his son
succeeded TO the craftsmanship. These
extraordinary instances of the longevity
OF the Mission Indians, who aumber
about six hundred. speak great deal for
the climate of the Yuma desert, where
during all this time they have lived IN
disturbed by the white man.
