A Murderer Killed.

SPOKANE FALLS, Dec. GA special
from Okanogan county announces the
killing of the Indian murderer OF
Freighter Cole by Deputy Sheriff Ives
after hot fusilade IN which a squaw al.
so was wounded.
Cole disappeared about six weeks ago
leaving his team where he had encamped
fer the night, and although blood stains
were found about the wagon, his body
was never discovered. Suspicion at once
fell upon an Indian who had been seen
lurking in the neighborhood and who
disappeared Immediately after the crime.
Since then the officers have been search
ing for him. Ives located him near the
mouth of the Methow river.
When he attempted to arrest him the
Indian opened fire and fred three shots
exhausting his cartridges. Ives fred
i've shoes, the fourth wounding the

with Professor Koch, and that the result
of their experiments are different from
those reached by the German bacteriolo-
gist. A correspondent to-day started
investigating and, in reply to questions,
Pasteur said: 1.-The experiments of
which you speak are now being carried
on in a very scientific lab :atory. 1t is
question of the day. Two members Of
our institute, Messrs. Route and Mont
schikoff, have for some time past made a
special study of the bacteria in con-
nection with tuberculosis"
"Is it not fact" the correspondent
asked, "that their Investigations have
resulted in the discovery Of preventa-
tive, if not curative remedy, like Prof.
Kock's?"
YES" Mr.. Pasteur answered; THAT
is the general tendency of their investi-
cations. 1t may be few days, few
months, or it may be even years before
I am able to tell you anything of the re-
suits. l cannot say when it will be, but
we will never consent to pass an uncon-
sidered opinion on subject. A report
was made in the medical papers yester-
day that an albuminuria and hema uria
had been found III a patient who was
treated with very small doses of the
lymph; in fact, that it is the kidneys
| that are materially affected by it. 1t
would be unjust to hold Prof. Koch ac-
countable for results like these. What
ever happens, you may be certain that
the Ecole Bacseriologique Franchise will
not initiate that example as long as re-
suits of our own Investigations remain
unascertained. We shall be silent, but
as soon as a single point is perfectly de-
veloped we shall report the facts in de-
tail to the academy of medicine.
