". c. 7. U. DELEGATES
PREACH FROM THE PULPITS OF
ST. PAUL
Election Of Officers and the Temple
Matter Promise Lively Sessions
Today and Tomorrow

ST. PAUL, Nov. l3.-This was quiet day
among the w. c. I. U. delegates, so far as
convention work was concerned. A number
of delegates filled local pulpits, both morning
and evening. But one session of the conven-
tion was held, Miss L. w. Greenwood,
worlds and national superintendent of evan
gelstic department, preaching at 2:30 at the
Peoples church.
The temple matter and election of officers,
which promises much excitement Monday
and Tuesday, We're kept in the background
as much as possible for subjects in which
all are interested. The temple matter is due
to come up late Monday afternoon, when
Mrs. Matilda B. Case, the founder of the
temple, will make her report on it, and seek
to overcome the adverse decision of the ex-
ecutive committee on the subject.
The polling of delegates continues actively
and everybody is confident of winning. A
very lively contest is promised, the first
move probably being an attempt to secure
secret ballot. Friends of the temple be-
lieve they can gain most by such course,
because of the timidity of some of the dele
gates.
The general opinion has been that Mrs. M.
N. Stevens, the vice president at large and
acting president, would be unopposed in her
candidacy for the place made vacant by
the death of Miss Frances E. Willard, but
several other candidates have been an
nounced. Mrs. Martin H. Dunham of Iowa,
one of the temple trustees and now state
president of Iowa, is prominent candidate,
and her friends hope for help from friends
of the temple. Another prominent candidate
is Mrs. G. b. Forbes, state president of Con-
necticut.
Mrs. Stevenson's resignation leaves the
position of corresponding secretary vacant
and number of prominent workers have
been mentioned for the office. There is little
fcanvassing being done, and Miss Anna A.
Gordon, formerly Miss Wizards confiden-
tial friend and secretary, seems to be the
most important in the field.
The next place of meeting has not yet
been agreed upon, but is is believed it will
be Seattle. There are a number of eastern
cities which have invited the convention to
meet there, but the sentiment seems to favor
Seattle.

was stabbed in the breast and killed shortly
before midnight last night by Guy Beck

in school house near Fairview, and was the
result of quarrel over the moving of a

Over a Woman

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. l3.-Nick Berg
was shot in the left breast and probably fa-
tally wounded about 0 o'clock tonight on the
yacht Chispa at Sausalito by Ike Elk. Both
men are employed as watchmen, Elk on the
Chispa, which is owned by Commodore
Cutie, and Berg on the Azalea, the property
of Capt. Alberts. 1t seems Berg's infatua-
ton for Elk's wife was the immediate cause
of the shooting, as the men are known to
have frequently quarreled over the woman.
Berg rowed over to the Chispa tonight. Elk
and his wife being on board the yacht rec
ognized Berg as he stepped aboard, and Elk
Immediately opened fire. He fred three
shots and Berg fell to the deck, wounded
in the breast. Elk jumped into boat and
made his way to shore. He did not try to
escape, but in giving the alarm told the Of
ficers that he had shot man whom he
thought was burglar. The officers hurried
to the yacht and found Berg seriously
wounded. Elk's victim was taken to Sausa-
Ito and physicians who dressed the wound
gave little hope for his recovery. Upon the
advice of his physician Berg refused to make
any statement. Elk was placed under ar
rest. After he had told his story of the
shooting of burglar he declined to talk
furtner about the case.
1t was on the Chispa and at Sausalito that
Capt. Brooks was murdered two months
ago. The mystery of that crime has never
been solved. After diligent search the
police practically abandoned the case. Dur
ing the investigation Berg and Elk were
listed among the suspects. Each succeeded
in proving an alibi, however, and the case
against them was dropped. The shooting
last night may lead to an unraveling of the
mystery in which the Brooks murder is
shrouded. No motivei for that crime was
established, but the theory of the officers
was that Elk desired to succeed Brooks as
Captain, and that Berg helped him on ac-
count of the woman with whom he was
enamored. 1t is thought that if Berg real
ICES that he is about to die he will tell all
he knows about the Brooks tragedy.

KILLING
NlCKLE WILL NEVER BE TRIED
Because His Double Murder Was
Quickly Followed by Suicide.
One Days Crimes

PLACERVILLE, Nov. lA-An inquest
was held today on the victims of yesterday s
tragedy near Shingle Springs. There was
but one eyewitness to the shooting, and
she was the S-year-old girl of Amanda Dale,
mother-in-law of the murderer. According
to the child's story, Jack Nickle and the
wife, with their one month old child, were
at the house of Mrs. Amanda Dale. Nickle
had a Winchester rife, with which he fred
at his wife. The bullet cut the neck Of
the child and entered the breast of his wife.
Amanda Dale assisted the wounded woman
to flee from the house to place about 100
yards distant, where the latter fell dead.
Mrs. Dale was continuing her flight in the
direction of neighboring ranch where her
husband was at work, when Nickle fired a
bullet through her heart, killing her in
stantly. The murderer then coolly re-
moved one of his shoes, placed the muzzle
of the rifle to his heart, pulled the trigger
with his toes and fell dead at the discharge
of the gun. Beyond statement as to what
occurred at the time of the tragedy nothing
could be learned from the child as to the
cause. All of the parties were of mixed In
dian blood, but were of industrious habits
and had pursued civilized mode Of living.

REGIONS
ARE NOT IN NEED OF ANY MAIL
SERVICE
The Yukon River Settlements Will
Get Letters Twice a Month
During the Winter

WASHINGTON, Nov. $50 far as the
postal officials are advised, there is no war
rant for any extension of service in the re-
gion about the Allankakat river northward.
The postoffice department has had agents
in the interior of Alaska, reporting on the
needs as well as the conditions of the SER
vice, and an inspector from the railway
mail service is now en- route there to go
over the whole field this winter.
The Allankakat is practically unknown
to the postal authorities. The winter plans
for the postal service in the Yukon region
are completed and will consist of twice-a-
month service via Juneau, that is over the
regular route through Dawson to Circle
City, to Weare, where the Tanana river
Joins the Yukon, and thence down the
Yukon to St. Michael. This is the first
time the Yukon has had a winter mail ser
vice (Which is now already begun, and the
treasury department congratulates itself on
having these facilities, getting mails, as they
do, twice a month to the main points in
Alaska, instead of having no service at all
in winter, as heretofore. No extension of the
mail service so as to provide mail service
anywhere north of the Yukon is contem
plated.

postal officials to point to large migra-
tion to the Allankakat region, though if per-
haps as many as 800 people settle together
in that section it is likely that, after the
location is positively shown, arrangements
to ship the mails there would be made 9th
erwise any who may be up there will have
to get their mails from the nearest point on
the Yukon, along which the regular carrier
travels, the point most probably being either
Rampant or Tanana. The point at which
the mails will be left on the Yukon route
are Eagle, at the mouth of Mission creek;
Star, at the mouth of Forty-Mile creek;
Circle and Yukon, at the mouth of Porcu-
pine river; Rampant, formerly called Mi
nook; Tanana, opposite the mouth of the
Tanana river; Koyukuk, at the mouth of the
river of the same name; Anvik, at the
mouth of the Alvill, and st, Michael. From
Juneau to Tanana the mail service now in
operation for the winter season is semi
monthly. From Tanana to st. Michael it is
monthly. The department announces posi-
lively that no extension of service in Alaska
will be made during the winter and no ser
vice whatever so far is contemplated at
either Fort Hamlin or Arctic City, inquiry
as to which has been made though sufficient
settlement may call for such action later on.
