SPRAGuE, May n.-TSpecial- IA few
days ago Marshal Conlee arrested four
tramps for theft. They were put to work
on the streets to work out their fine.
Everything went all right until today at
noon, when they refused to work any
more. The marshal told them they would
have to live on bread and water until they
were ready to work again. At this
information one of them made a
jump at the marshal and attempted
to strike him, when Mr. Conlee drew
his club and knocked the hobo down. At
this the other three tried to interfere. and
only for the timely arrival of Deputy Mag
shall Hill. who drew his revolver, there
would have been lively time. They were
securely bound and put in Jail again.
While thus engaged with the prisoners,
another tramp was lurking about and at
tempted to put something through the
window of the Jail. He was promptly ar
rested and shared the same fate as the
others.

A Suicide Letter, but No Come.

NEW WESTMINSTER, B. c., May IL
Especial. EARLY Sunday morning bun
die of clothes, with . note attached. was
found lying on Ewen's wharf. The bundle
was neatly tied with cord Stuck under
the cord was the following note:
To all whom 1t may concern: I, the under
signed. came 70 this cursed hole four weeks ago
last Tuesday 60 seek employment, and have
found nothing, and as have no money and au
tired Of life bid my friends adieu-
The note is signed J. A. Jackson The
police were immediately informed of the
affair, and investigated as fully as posi-
BILE The bundle contained two suits Of
clothes. but no papers whereby the iden-
tity of the person to whom they belonged
might be discovered. Nobody knows any
person by the name of J. A. Jackson.
Along the water front no unusual
noises were heard Saturday night,
and if the suicide was COM
mitted it was accomplished very
quietly. Indeed. the police doubt the sui
eide. as contractors complain that they
cannot obtain sufficient number of hands,
and certainly there IS no excuse for q
steady man being ont of employment
The police win continue to work on the
case until every means of deciding the
mystery one way or the other Is exhausted.

ton for the Stewart Institute, Nevada,
Indian school having run short, word was
received from Washington City by Super
intendent Gibson that employees who de-
sired to remain must work from May 10 to
July without compensation of any kind.
and must also pay the government regular
rates for board and lodging during this
time as before. Considerable dissatis-
faction has been awakened. The
principal teacher. seamstress, assist
ant matron and industrial teacher
passed in their designations. Several
other attaches have agreed to remain
along with the superintendent. The
future outlook for the crops at the school
are very bright, and nearly every acre is
under cultivation. which if neglected for
any length of time will go to ruin. Fruit
trees have beenplanted, wind mills, shops.
etc, put up, which in conjunction with
the school, and home industries, furnishes
work and education for over 100 Indian
boys and girls.

PiTTsBURG. January lS.-A special
from Findlay. Ohio, says: The first
Great disaster Eindiar has ever czpcricn-
ced from the use OF natural gas occurred
shortly before , O'clock this afternoon
while the guests OF the Hotel Marvin
were waiting to be summoned to dinner.
This morning II vas discovered that
gas was escaping from & pipe somewhere
into the dining room. and Alr Marvin.
the owner Of The building, with three
plumbers, spent tho entire forenoon try
ING to locate the leak. About | O'Clock
they entered chamber underneath the
dining room and found such an accumu-
lation of gas that they could not breathe
and 1t was suggested that a hole be
sawed through the floor into the dining
room in order to obtain fresh air. This
was done and just as the hole was made
one Of the dining room girls. who was
sweeping the floor, stepped upon
match, and in an instant an explosion
occurred which not only wrecked the
building, but killed two girls and manned
and injured dozen other employees.
The ferce of the explosion was so great
that it blew out the flame of the ignlted
gas and no fire followed the awful ruin
which the sheck caused.
The whole building was rocked rs il in
all earthquake by the conclusion, and all
the windows on the square were demol-
ished. while the wreck Of the hotel build
inc was all but tcomplete, the only rooms
in the house escaping destruction being
the parlors and office.
Had the explosion occurred ten min
utcs later the loss of life would have been
frghtful. as nearly a hundred people
were waiting in their rooms to be called
to dinner, and one Of the clerks was on
his way to make this announcement
when the explosion occurred, andhe was
caught in the falling debris, he being one
of the painfully injured.
When the work Of removing the dead
and rescuing the injured began, 1t was
found that Katie Walters, q waitress,
was killed outright; Ella Johnson, a
dining room girl, was alive under the
mass of brick and mortar, and died short
" after being carried to place of safety;
Kate Rooney, another dining room girl,
was also fatally injured, butt still alive:
Frank Poundstonc, day clerk at the he
tel, was painfully bruised and cut about
the neck and face. He will recover.
AnsGn Marvin. owner Of the building,
who was with the plumbers under the
dining room floor when the explosion
occurred. is probably fatally injured, as
great deal of the llame from the gas was
inhaled. Five others were injured, but
will recover
