Said to Have Confesse d.

Great Falls, July 4.-Homer Pease
and Jack Leonard have been arrested
by Deputy Sheriff Sky Small for al
legged participation in the shooting of
two Japanese laborers at Exeter two
weeks ago. lit is said that the two men
have broken down and confessed that
they are the parties wanted. If this is
true Mr.. Small will be entitled to the
$1,000 reward offered by the Great
Northern for their capture. Sheriff
Conatser has also arrested Thomas
Murphy on suspicion of completely in
the crime. The two men arrested by
Small at first claimed that they were
cow-punchers from Canada, looking for
LeGarry's outfit, and that they were
far away when the shooting was done,
but number of things have been
learned since their arrest which would
tend to dasprove their alibi.
The coal output of New South Wales
last year was 4,367 900 tons, an increase of

JuSslers OF d

Two men-one old and emaeiated,
carrying a native drum the other young
and well fed, Enthusiastically gowned with
an overskirt of colored handkerchiefs,
and a multitude OF bells which jangle
noisily at his slightest movement; long,
ragged hair; altogether a hideous figure.
The drummer begins weird tomtom-
ing and the other man an incarnation.
Then he extends a "supra''-a bamboo
tray used by all natives-on which any
m who pleases places a large handful
of rice and the same quantity of grain.
The two ingredients are thoroughly
amalgamated, SO that it would in the
ordinary way take hours to separate
them.
Now the fantastic man with his tray
begins. He turns round slowly, gradu-
ally quickening his pace (the drummer
also keeping time), faster and faster in
a giddy vortex, the tray at times almost
out Of his hands, yet SO cleverly handled
that not a grain falls out. 1t is very
trying to watch, but in a couple Of
minutes both stop simultaneously, and
the nan shows to the wondering spec
tators two little heaps-one of rice and
the other grain-at different ends of the
tray, which in his sickening gyrations
he has been able to separate by some
extraordinary NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. 8

No Prisons Needed,

In Iceland there are no prisons, and
the inhabitants are SO honest in their
habits that such material defenses to
property as locks, bolts and bars are
not required. Yet it's history for the
past thousand years records no more
than two thefts.
OF these two cases, one was that of q
native who was detected after stealing
several sheep, but as he had done SO to
supply his family, who were suffering
for want of food, when he had broken
his arm, provisions were furnished to
them and work was found for him when
he was able to do it, and meanwhile he
was placed under medical care, but the
stigma attached to his crime was con-
sidered sufficient punishment.
The other theft was made by Ia Ger
man, who stole II sheep. But as NE was
in comfortable circumstances and the
robbery was malicious the sentence
passed upon him was that he should at
once sell all his property.
