MAsrsR MECHANICS STORY.
Strong Testimony Against the MIL
tary, IN the couer d'AIens Invss-
tIaatIon.

Washington. March 1.-THE Couer
d'Alene investigation was continued
today. Allen F. Gil. master mechanic
Of the Tiger and Poor Man Mining
company of Burke, testified that he
was at Burke on April 18th. the day
the Bunker Hill" mine was blown up.
The town was unusually quiet April
sOth. all the men were at work except
four. They continued to work until
the Sd or 4th OF May. when numbers
including himself were arrested by
the military. He explained to the ON
Ger In charge OF the troops that the
manager of the mine was absent and
great property interests depended up
on him. Major Morten replied that
martial law had been declared and he
would have to go to Wardner. He
heard Morten order the troops to-
break into his house. Soldiers broke
in the door. He noticed other instan-'
ces of similar character. He testified
to the general harsh treatment suf-
fered by the arrested miners at the
hands Of the troops There was no
necessity for soldiers, he said, as civil
processes could have been served.

London. March 17-Shamrock day
promises to vie with Primrose day.
Judging from the enthusiasm with
which, for the first time in the history
OF the nation. the loyalists all over the
united kingdom are celebrating. From
Windsor castle, where the queen OBJ
served the day by wearing sprig of
genuine shamrock, to the east end
slums Of London. nearly everyone
sports some green favor. By the
queens order the bells in the curfew
tower at Windsor castle honored st.
Patrick this morning. On LondOn's
mansion house floats the new loyal
flag. Houses and stores lavishly dis
play green flags and bunting. The
supply of genuine shamrock was so
scarce that half dozen leaves sold
readily for half crown The ancient
ceremony, "Trooping the Color" at
Dublin castle, was performed in the
presence of the lord lieutenant of Ire
land, Earl Cadogan, Duke of Con-
naught, commander in chief of the
forces in Ireland, and was brilliant
assemblage.
In the churches the preachers re-
ferred to the occasion, thanking Prov
idence that the English had learned to
love and respect their Irish fellow
subjects as they never knew them or
respected them before.
The unusual lord mayors process
sion took place in Dublin. The lord
mayor of Belfast and mayor of Cork
participated but number of national
ist mayors refused to accept an sinvi--
tation to take part.
Toronto, Ont. March 17-St. Pat
rick's day is being observed through
out the province with unusual enthus-
1asm. Everybody is wearing sham
rock, ana the Irish flag is flying on
ali public buildings.
