whose body was identified by his rela'

on the grass On his right side, behind a
store house near the railroad track. Silva
thought the man was sleeping off drunk
and did not pay much attention to him.
This was about O'Clock. At 8 O'Clock
Mr.. Russell and Silva passed the spot
again and saw that the man was lying
in exactly the same position that he was
two hours before The two men stopped
and looked at the figure for minute and
suddenly the truth began to dawn upon
them. He was dead. Turning the man
over it was seen that there was shot
hole through the coat and trousers and
that bullet had penetrated the mans
groin. The bullet was later found in
the mans bladder. The place where the
man was lying was about dozen PAGES
from the Grand Trunk railroad track in
road way, behind large old three-story
wooden building that had evidently been
used in the past for storehouse, but
whose windows had been boarded up and
was said to be occasionally used as q
refuge by tramps. The man was evident

The picture Of the man printed IN the

Lynn and he recognized the man as Dam

man was her son, and her daughter, the
sister of Kennedy. came to Portland, ex-
amined the remains and identified them
as those of her brother. So confident
were the parties that the body was that OF

were those of Kennedy. They were taken

AN UNUSUAL CONDITION.
Judge Springer Declares There Is at Pres
ent No Statute Under Which a Creek
Murderer Can BE Executed.

Muscogee, l. T.. Oct. % According
to Federal Judge Springer there is at
present no legal way of furnishing a
Creek Indian for murder or any other
otfense committed prior to January l.,
1898. There is no officer who can law
fully execute a death sentence on a
Creek, though he may have been
caught red-handed and convicted be-
yond the shadow of doubt of killing
fellow being
Judge Springer, who presides over
the United States district court for
the Northern district, Indian territory,
whose reputation as jurist is known
all over the west, has just handed
down an opinion which reveals one of
the most startling and dangerous con-
ditions that can be imagined 1t is
like going back to the days OF No
Mans Land, where criminals were eX-
empt from the law. The present con-
dition is just as bad, for when the
Curtis law went into effect, July /,
wiping out the tribal courts in the In
dian territory, it made an Indian muir
derer a man without country. There
are no tribal courts. Judge Springer
has decided that the United States
court has no jurisdiction and has ac-
cordingly given William Tiger, of the
Creek nation, convicted of murder, his
liberty. These were ominous words
in the judges opinion: There is no
court in the universe that now has
jurisdiction to impose the sentence of
death upon him"

sons, transport only about $4,000 per-
sons in one year--less than half the
number that the Spanish officials,
with their poor facilities, were expect
cd to transport in about ten weeks
Delay in the evacuation of Cuba will
cause delay in the REIMBURSEMENT of
sovereignty by the Spaniards over the
entire island, which was set for De-
cembcr /. 1t is hardly deemed pru-
dent to undertake to assume charge
of the municipal affairs of Havana
so long as the city contains a
strong garrison of Spanish troops,
and it is felt that law and order could
be better maintained in such centers
by allowing them to remain under
Spanish jurisd ction until they are
evacuated by the troops and reoccu-
pied by United States troops.

Washington, Oct. 22.-The weather
bureau has issued the following bull
letin on frosts in yellow fever dis
tricts:
This mornings report shows frosts
throughout the infected districts. In
Alabama, eastern and northern Mis-
sissirpi and northern Louisiana the
frosts were heavy and killing; in
southeastern Mississippi and southern
Louisiana light frost was reported.
AT Mobile the minimum temperature
was 40 degrees, and at New Orleans
46 degrees, the lowest previous record
for the third decade of October being
81 degrees at Mobile and AZ at New
Orleans. November Is is the earliest
date on which freezing temperature
has ever occurred at New Orleans, and
November > is the earliest date of
freezing temperature in Mobile.
In central Mississippi and northern
Louisiana. and also in northern Ala
bama and northern Georgia freezing
weather has occurred In the third de-
cade of October.
The first heavy frost has occurred as
late as December 80 at Mobile, while
at New Orleans November and Deem
Der have, in number of years, failed
to show the occurrence of heavy frost.
The average date of heavy frost is No
,ember 90 at Mobile and December at
New Orleans.
The average minimum temperatures
for the regions referred to range from
80 degrees to So degrees during No
vember. with occasional periods OF
freezing temperature.
The occurrence of light frost, Tues

Thomas Edison is credited with re-
marking that women have more sense
about machinery than men," At any

Mrs. Alice Meynell does not desire

and women, as she considers any diff
ference to be due to individuality and
not to sex. She says that il is possible
for women to excel in reasoning pow

women to be dull in perception and OBJ
