FATHER cHIRoUsE SENT TO PRISON
British Coium bia Judge Sentences Cruel
Priest for Having Girl Whipped.

brtfish Colum bfa Judge Sentences Cruel
Priest for Having Girl Whipped.
vIcroRrA, May Especial. Father
Chirouse, one Of the leading oblate priests
of the province, who was arraigned
three weeks ago on the charge of
ordering the whipping of an Indian girl
Of the La Fontaine tribe in the Chilcotin
district, was tired yesterday, with five
Indians of the tribe. The details of the
case showed that the woman had offended
against the code of moral law
existing among the Indians of the
district and that Chirouse, on being asked
for an opinion advised the chief to carry
out the usual punishment, which was
fifteen lashes- This, it appears, has been
the custom among the British Column
bia Indians for many years, and the
priest thought 1t best to let them
judge the case in their own way. Although
nothing was proved against him the judge
sentenced him to one years imprison-
ment. The chief of the tribe got
six months and the other four Indians got
two months each. During progress of the
trial about 200 Indians were camped cut
side the courthouse, and when sentence
was pronounced it was feared that hostile
demonstration would be made, the whole
tribe taking the priests part.
VANCOUVER, B. c., May Especial. +
April IS, by the sanction and consent of
Father Chirouse. o. NJ. l., and the COM
mand of Chief Kiilepootkin, an Indian
girl named Lucy whom he had caught
aagrante delicto with a young Indian OF
another tribe, was gwen fifteen lashes on
her naked body. The matter was taken up
by the authorities and Judge Cornwall
sentenced Father Chirouse to one years
imprisonment, Chief Killepootkin to six
months. and four Indians who assisted in
the fiagellation TO four months each.

ALLEGED BRIBERY AT sPoKANs.

Greenberg, Prominent Citizen, Arrest
ed on Complaint of Peoples Party.
SPOKANE, May Especial. Great e1-
element was occasioned this morning by
the arrest of Henry w. Greenberg on two
charges of having bribed voters at Tues
days election. Greenberg is member Of
the retiring city council. and was one of
the most prominent candidates for mayor
before the late Republican city conven-
ton. He saw copy of one of the COM
plants in this mornings Reriew and did
not want to be arrested, but at once pre-
sented himself to the justice before whom
the complaints were sworn out. Against his
vigorous protest the case was postponed
till Saturday, and ne was released on $500
bonds.
The men signing the complaints are
members of the Peoples party. Green
berg admits giving money to ward work
ers for expenses, but denies that it was for
voters. He is prominent citizen. and the
better element have no idea that the
charges can be substantiated.

Given in Confederation Of His .sIpdu-
ence" with the Interior Department.
WARRINGTON CrTY, May Sc. C. Waters.
formerly manager of the Yellowstone
National Park Association, today resumed
testimony before the House committee on
public lands, but failed to bring the papers
concerning leases which he had promised
TO bring. He said he had never spoken to
Russell Harrison on the subject OF putting
stock In trust for him, but had put the
stock In trust for Harrison without Har-
rison's knowledge. He thought he had
asked Russell Harrison to say to the sec
rotary that anything he (waters) said
could be relied on. Waters did not know
Rieckens, but he had used Kerns' name as
trustee for the stock because he knew
kerns to be friend Of Russell Harrison.
When asked whether the stock thst had
been set aside for Russell Harrison was
for consideration or as a gift, witness
finally said he had asked Russell Harri-
son to see the secretary Of the interior and
felt that he might want TO call on him
again for something right and proper.

authorized contracts which would make

Whiting of Michigan thought that the

favored deep waterway channel, as did
Catehings OF Mississippi. General debate

under the five minute rule. Without dis
posing OF IL the committee arose and the

THE MOST COSTLY FUR.

No, sealskin is not the most costly
fur, nor nearly so. A skin of sea
otter, so small that you might carry
it away in your hat, is worth $3.50 if
it is a good specimen. One very
seldom sees this beautiful fur, which
is of the deepest black, studded with
silver hairs, as Russians, who have a
great admiration for it, absorb all the
best specimens. The sea otter Is
caught scarcely anywhere except on
the coast of Alaska, and only a few
thousand of them are killed every
year.-The Philadelphia Times.

The French carriers are of the dark

pretty silver or gold buckle.
Carriers are now made of all the

An unusually dainty pair is of
violet shirred silk, with a purple
enambled fleur-de-lis mounted in
silver as clasp.
Those of embroidered silk, with
dainty bows upon them, are very
dainty.
