BATTLES WITH YAQUIs.
Severe Engagements Between Indi-
ans and Mexican Troops.

severe engagements Between Indi-
ans and Mexican Troops.
AUSTIN, Tex, Dec. Authorization
reaching here today from Ortis, state Of
Sonora, Mexico, states that Marshall Ter
hume, an expert mining engineer who has
been In the YaQui country for some
months, arrived at Ortis yesterday and
announced that since Nov Is the YaQui
Indians and Mexican military forces have
had several severe engagements, attend
ed with loss OF life and a number Of
wounded.
The first of these enga gements was on
Nov. IS, just north of Cochri, and during
the engagement there were forty-eight
indians and five soldiers killed outright.
In addition thereto there were twenty
three soldiers wounded and something
over 100 squaws ana Indian children cap
tued by the military forces. These pris-
oners will be sent to Guyana by the
military authorities to, be held as host
ages.
The place where this enga cement took
place is on the Yaqui river just at the
very entrance to the mountains. This
section of the country is very heavily
wooded and hence the engagement was
conducted On the guerrilla warfare order,
as had been most of the previous
skirmishes and enga gements The battle
was between the main bodies of both
factions The Indians were massed in
force ard the soldiers had a very large
quota of men.
Mr. Terhune states that his mining
camp is some distance from the scene of
the battle. Reports were nleager, but
sufficient to show that the soldiers had
come upon the camp of the Indians in
the woods and engaged them I'm combat
The fighting was very severe and lasted
most Of the; day The Indians were final
ly put to flight and this explains why so
many of their women were captured as
their retreat was made in dire confusion
and the women became separated from
the warriors.
In addition to this engagement there
were several others of minor Importance
during the week following that date, but
no information as to the results Of the
latter engagements is forthcoming.

ITS ORIGIN ORTHODOX
Yesterdays COLD WAVE WAS
FROM THE REGULAR QUARTER,
RATTLEFORD 81 co.
WINTER HERE FOR BUSINESS
Such Is the Belief of Local Observer
Lyons, Although He COnfesses
That He Has Not Had Any Official
AdVices From the North Pole as
to What the Great Bear Has In
Mind.

Winter has at last made its advent, ac-
cording to the weather bureau and away
up in the Canadian Northwest there is
raging a cold wave that is due here this
evening The snow storm of yesterday
was a forerunner of Boreas and was gen.
eral throughout Minnesota. The snow
fall was light elsewhere, as it was in ST..
Paul. Although colder here yesterday
than the few previous days the real eff
fects of the cold wave have not been
felt. The mercury here yesterday only
registered "a degrees above zero, while
g Battleford, Canada, the thermometer
stood at u degrees below for some hours.
AT Qu'Appelle it was 10 degrees below
with a gradual rise in the temperature,
in g southwesterly direction. At Willis
ton, near the Montana boundary, it was
cold enough to force the mercury to 4
degrees below zero, but in the Dal1otas
and Minnesota the registration was all
above zero. The local weather bureau
yesterday received a special message
that a decided change in the weather
would take place by this evening. Local
Observer Lyons has notified the railroads
and merchants dealing in live stock or
perishable goods of the approaching cold
snap.
Beginning at midnight Saturday, snow
fell in st. Paul continuously until last
night. The flakes were light and fluffy,
however, and only a thin covering of
the beautiful" mantles the city. A disa-
greeable northwest wind accompanied the
snow and made outdoor travel unpleas-
ant. 1t was not biting cold, but after
being out in the driving snow for any
length of time pedestrians appreciated
the warmth of a fire and inside shelter.
The sidewalks were slippery and walk.
ing was somewhat difficult, but the street
cars and railroad trains were generally
on time throughout the day. At the
depot it was reported that trains had in
no way been affected by the storm. To-
wards evening, as the wind increased
and the snow drifted some, the street
cars met with some difficulty. Cars were
not stalled anywhere, but delays occurred
in climbing hills by reason of the slippery
rails, while in cuts along the tracks some
quite pretentiOuS drifts formed The COM
pany found it necessary to put fires in
the cars during the day.
The cold felt yesterday locally was
only the advance Of the full-fledged cold
wave that is heading this way. By to-
night Observer Lyons says it will be
much colder, in fact that the mercury
will probably fall several degrees below
zero. The sold snap may last several
days, and the indications are for clear,
fair weather. While Observer Lyons
thinks winter has commenced In earnest,
he says it is possible that the tempera-
ture may rise decidedly after the cold
wave has passed and that there may be
another brief season of the fine fall
weather that the cold wave has inter-
rupted.

Former New York Rector Turns to
the Church of Rome.

NEW YORK, Dec. 3.-Rev. DIR. Ben
jamin F. De Costa, who in September
last resigned the rectorship Of the Prot
estant Episcopal Church of st. John the
Evangelist, was today received into the
Roman Catholic church. The ceremony
took place in the chapel of the Academy
of the Sacred Heart.
DR.. De Costa, being a married man, is
therefore not eligible to the priesthood
In the Roman Catholic church, and hav-
ing no ecclesiastical prospects, will re-
turn to literature and devote himself to
writing and lecturing.
DR.. De Costa took a prominent part in
the controversy over the ordination of
DR.. Briggs few months ago. He was
a bitter opponent Of the latter, and
threatened to cause a public protest to
be made at the ordination services He
also talked Of having Bishop Potter tried
before an ecclesiastical court if he or
dained DR.. Briggs. He did neither how
ever, but resigned from his rectorship
and afterwards gave up his membership
in the church altogether.
DR.. De Costa has prepared for publica-
ton statement in justification of his
course, in which he takes strong grounds
on the Bible quetion, holding that the
Roman Catholic church Is the true Bible
church.

When the bookkeeper at D. Aberle &
: Co.'s wholesale and retail liquor store at
Seven corners, went to his place of en-
ployment yesterday morning to check up
the proceeds of Saturdays business he
discovered there were no proceeds. The
cash drawer had been broken open and
sos was missing. Part of the money was
stolen from the drawer in the wholesale
department, while part was taken from
hiding place in the cafe where receipts
We're usually left by the night bartender
so that the bookkeeper could get the
money early in the morning. 1t is be-
l1eVed that the theft was committed by
some one familiar with the liquor store.
From the indications it is surmised that
the robbery was committed by some one
secreted in the store when it was closed
Saturday night. The wholesale depart
ment was closed at II o'clock, while
George Hartman, bartender in the cafe
locked up at II o'clock Yesterday morn
ing all of the doors We're secure, but a
rear window of the buffet was open, while
the protecting iron shutters showed that
they had been unbarred from the inside
Mr.. Hartman says no one was in the
buffet when he left the place. AS is his
custom, he placed the receipts in his
charge in a cracker bowl on a shelf
among the liquors of the buffet. The
money, amounting to $751; was wrapped
up in towel. The cracker bowl was
found on the floor, when the robbery was
discovered yesterday morning, while an
other receptacle like it had also been
searched and thrown aside. The cash
drawer in the wholesale department was
broken open as though pulled from it's
place by sheer strength, without the aid
Of implements. From here the robber Sc
cured $40, including a check for $3.50
drawn in favor of D. Aberle & Co. by
Scheffer & Rossum.
According to Mr.. Hartman's theory of
the robbery, the thief must have hidden
himself in the wholesale department be-

from the wholesale department only by
