AND COMMISSION HOUSE.
An International Conflict.

Seattle, Wash, Mch. 8.-The chamber
of commerce has appointed a committee
to investigate the question of the boun-
dary between Alaska and British Colum-
bia and to arouse public opinion to the
Importance eofmaintaining of American right
in the matter. The question is to be
con side red by an international commits
sion this year, and as preliminary step
surveys have been made by parties from
both countries, but the British show
much more thoroughness and activity
than the Americans, and in order to So
cure possession of the Yukon mines are
now preparing to build road over
the Taku pass to the Eeadwaters of the
Yukon.
The prin ,ipal controversy hinges on
the Interpretation of the treaty locating
the boundary ten marine leagues from
the shore. England contends that this
line should not follow the inlets; America
that it should.
If England's contention prevails Jun
eau and the best hal bors will be in her
territory. Hence the agitation here,
where the largest business with Alaska is
done and where the Alaska steamers
start.

BEWITCHED HER.
An Old Mans Darling in Indiana In
Very Queer Fix.

Brazil, Ind, Mch. 8.-The days of
witchcraft are revived in Brazil. Two
months ago man named Stapleton,
aged 60, married Miss johnson, aged 16
years.
Two weeks ago the wife left her hus-
band, returning to her parents, since
which time she is controlled by mys-
terious influence under which she has
spasmodic spells. They prey heavily
upon her, both physically and mentally.
She alleges that her husband has be.
witched her, and seeks redress in the
courts. The most peculiar phase of the
phenomenal case is that by his black arts,
as the wife alleges, the husband has trans
formed here into horse, and repeatedly
he has ridden her under the cover of dark
ness to the point of exhaustion.
The young wife's brother threatens the
life of her husband, whose son has filed
complaint praying that he be compelled
to execute bond for surety Of the peace.
The situation is becoming complicated
and sensational.

MAX AND MARK.
Two Famous Authors AbOut to En-
gage in n Deadly Duel.

New York, Mch. 8.--A duel between
Paul Blouet (Max ORelD, of Paris, Euro.
pean humorst, and Samuel Clemens
MARK Twain) is not an impossibility
O'Rell is very angry over Twain's article
criticising the book, "Outre Mer." "Mark
Twain has offered a gratultous insult" he
said, s'to the women of the French nation.
1t is no excuse for him that 'Outre Mer'
is pretentious, ridiculous and foolish.
That M. Bouget attempted an analytical
criticism of American men and women,
in all seriousness. after only six months
visit here, was simply bit of humor.
Now, this is what take particular OK
ception to:
"Bouget has written jokingly-T sup
pose life can never get entirely dull to an
American, because whenever he can't
strike up any other way to put in the
time he can always get away with few
years trying to find out who his grand
father was.'
"See how Twain answers this: Il reckon
a Frepchmans got his little standby for
dull time, too, because when all inter
ests fail he can turn in and see if he can't
find out who his father was.' Now, l call
that answer an unwarranted, gratuitious,
vile insult"
Mr.. O'Rell added that Mr.. Twain could
have satisfaction Of any kind.

as to enable individuals in tn
the Democratic party and in q
law to overthrow government
thwart the rights of suffrage. This ma
chime is an organization composed of
professional politicians.
"Under this machine system so de-
graded and rotten has been created and
fostered that no person who has not act
ually heard the testimony could believe
that condition so appalling and corrupt
could exist In civilized and decent COM
munity. The Republican party is in no
way responsible for this condition, but
some individual and some party are re-
sponsible. Year after year Murphyism
has gained strength. One Republican
has surrendered himself for office, an
other for business advantage, another
through fear or cajolery, until scores of
Republicans who were willing to trade
their political principles for personal ad-
vantage are now serving as Murphy Re-
publicans.
"The effect upon the Republican party
of this pernicious system is that num-
Der of apparently respectable men claim
ing to be Republicans can be put into
immediate and determined action at the
bidding of Mr.. Murphy, even though such
action be against Republican measures
and against the overwhelming sentiment
of the Republican party.
"In the fall of 1899, although the state
gave majority of 100000 against Isaac
H. Maynard, Troy, in spite of the over
whelming and unprecedented popular up
rising, gave Maynard a majority of nearly
5000, the frauds of that election being
without parallel even in that corrupt
and degraded city.
"The conclusion of your committee in
the city of Troy election crimes is that
they are due to the utter disregard of the
law by the leaders of the Democratic
party, to a dishonest and incompetent
police force and the subserviency of
many so called Republicans to the afro
cious service of the Murphy machine"
