The bodies we're brought to Seattle and

they have been removed to the Masonic
cemetery.
The news of the murder was sent to
John Bonser, in Oregon, and he came to
the town at once For several weeks after
the event the columns of the Seattle
Gazette were devoted in part to discus
sion OF the question of selling and giving
liquor to the Indians, the general con-
clusion being that it was not only against
the law but dangerous practice.
Out Of the killing by Aleck of the two
Snohomish Indians grew a feud which re-
suited in the death Of Alexis son. The
old man was the one wanted, but he was
too quick with the rifle and they never

nearly 80 years.

The Coal Exhibit at tho Fair.

Senator W. c. Rutter, who is collecting
the coal exhibit for the state building at
the Worlds fair. says that the impression
that the specimen cubes of coal have to be
sawed is erroneous. The coal companies
are asked to furnish iour-inch cubes for
the general exhibit of mines and mining,
and small specimen in addition for anal
yss, but there is no requirement that the
cubes be sawed. The state commission
asked for specimens two feet by two feet
by four feet, but it has been found to be
impracticable to ship such large blocks of
many Goals, as they are too friable, and
smaller hlocks are accepted. Mr.. Rutter
yesterday mailed to the coal companies
request for analyses of their coal, as those
made by State Geologist Bethune have
been found to be inaccurate in MANY cases

VICTIMS OF SURE THING MEN

Man Pay for Confidence.

A Va0hon Rancher and q Green Young
Man Pay for Confidence.
A Vashon rancher fell into the hands of
one of the bunko gang that is working the
boats and trains last Friday afternoon,
and, while in the end he got out of the
scrape all right, he will nevertheless re-
member the old adage that q man should
be considered Knave until he proves him.
self an honest man.
The old rancher, whose name 10 with
held on account of his wife and children.
stood at the wharf waiting for the boat.
In his pocket were $40. the result of hard
labor at clearing land. Soon a heavy,
thick-set man with bristly mustache and
cold blue eye came up to him and COM
menced to talk. He was going where the
old man was destined, but he had some
business to transact up town, and would
the old man look after his baggage until
he returned
The man from the country agreed to this
readily. but his newly found friend sud-
denly remembered that he was short of
money. It was very careless in him to
come away without sufficient ready cash
to buy the things he needed, and it would
be great favor if the rancher would loan
him $40 for q short time He would repay
it on the boat.
Down into his pocket went the man from
the country, and out came the $50 earned
by hard labor. Away went the stranger,
and in perfect ignorance of the fact tina.
he had struck "shark," the old man sat
down to watch the baggage
In q short time some one came along and
claimed the baggage as his, and went off
with it. When the boat left the stranger
had not returned with the $40. Officer
Crandall heard of the affair and sent the
victim to the police station, where De-
tective Cudihee listened to his story and
started out to see what could be done. He
LETT his friend at the corner Of Yesler and
South Second street. with instructions to
wait until he returned. Cudihee came
back in short time, and before he said a
word the old man grinned from ear to ear
and remarked:
Its ali right; just after you left me my
friend came along and returned my
money"
The knife swindle was worked on q
young and unsophisticated Irishman
about two weeks ago, but he felt SO morti-
fled at being "played for sucker" that he
left the city Immediately. He came here
with $50 and placed it in q friends hands
for safe keeping. After two days expert
ence he thought he was prepared to join
issue with Seattle's ''sure thing" men and
took. possession of his wealth. The first
one he met took him out to Lake Wash
ington and there carelessiy produced a
knife. 1t opened with spring, and easily
enough. too. SO far as the young green
man could see. He bet $50 that he could
open it, but somehow he didn't. That
evening his money paid for champagne.
