Encounter Occurred During the Couer d'Alene Investigation, When Att torney Robertson Was Called
 Liar by MT. Sinclair

Washington, April 24.-Another exciting incident enlivened the proceedings in the Couer d'Alene investigation this afternoon, which nearly resulted in a personal en- counter between Bartlett, Sinclair and At torney Robertson.

 DO you ask that as a question, or state It as fact?" asked MT. Sinclair
 T state it as a fact replied MT. Robert son.
 It Is lie," responded MT. Sinclair.
 Robertson made a lunge at Sinclair, but the distance was too great to permit a blow. Representatives Sulzer. Hay. Esch and other members sprang forward to stop the fracas.
 In the few minutes that the melee was at its height members were standing on and Jumping over the large committee table seeking to get at the contestants The lat ter were in a confused tangle of chairs and witnesses on the further side of the table Alter Robertson's first lunge he rushed on Sinclair, who was sitting in the witness seat, unprepared for the onslaught.

Sinclair, when order was restored resumed his seat in the witness chair and after vigorous cautionary remarks by the cislrman against such disorders, resumed ms recital. Neither of the contestants showed any outward mark of the affray.

MAY FESTIVAL IS
 TWO WEEKS OFF Coming Event Promises to be a
 Grand Success. ORCHESTRA FAR SUPERIOR Soloists Will Also be an Improvement on Those Who Were Here Last
 Year Campanari Will
 be the Star
ORCHESTRA FAR SUPERIOR

The May music festival begins two weeks rom tomorrow. Last years festival was a splendid success. Artisticaly, it sur passed everything in the musical way at- tempted in the south up to that time And financially it was a great success, too. The receipts exceeded the expense account by $SOO
 This years festival will, it is thought, prove far more successful than last years, both financially and artistically The Bos- ton Festival orchestra, the same that was employed year ago, will come again this season; but it will bring a far stronger body of musicians.
 The soloists this year will surpass those of last. In addition to Campanar. Birming ham Is to have, two weeks hence, Flora Provan soprano; Evan Williams, tenor, and Gertrude May Stein, alto. There will be other artists but those named belong to the first rank-strictly to the first rank. Miss Provan is said to be a phenomenally sweet singer. As for Williams and May Stein. they are as well known as Cam panari.
 MT. Guckenber CT Pleased
 Mir Guckenberger, the musical director of the festival, expressed himself last night as more than pleased with the chorus re- hearsals. "The chorus is far ahead of last year." said MT. Guckenberger We have four more rehearsals after tonight and be- fore we get to the fourth all the works to be performed will have been mastered"
 At last nights rehearsal the director de- tad lie affo orfe to ion, cussion of the texts of Fair Ellen" by Max Bruch, and Elijah" by Felix Bar tholdy Mendelssohn. When the courthouse clock sounded 10 the chorus was letter perfect" on the two works named.
 The next rehearsal will take place to- morrow night. The "Mestersinger'' and other works will then be studied and prac- ticed. The "Meistersnger" is, perhaps, the most difficult work that the chorus has un- dertaken, but it will be well performed.
 Season Tickets on Sale
 The season tickets for the festival are on sale at the principal stoves and at the Jefferson theater box office. There is no extra charge for reserved seats.
 The festival will take place at the Audi torium May 10 and Il. The corps of ushers at the Auditorium for this occasion will consist of the senior class of Howard col lege George P. Jackson, secretary of the festival association, addressed a communi- cation to Professor Roof of Howard col lege making inquiry as to the willingness of Howard students to serve as ushers The response came promtply that the grad uating class-fifteen in number-would gladly serve the festival association.

TRAPPING A VILLAIN.
The Neat Capture of n Would-Be
Murderer by His Intended
Victim.

A writer on Klondike customs and
dangers says, in the Independent, that
there is here, as everywhere, a class OF
ex-criminals whom the lone yoyager
must guard against.
Last year, he says, the man who
went out with the first mail after the
closing of the river, fell in with trav-
eler, hungry and cold, stumbling along
the unbroken trail. The messenger
took pity on him, shared his food with
him, made fire and warmed his hAlf-
frozen body.
All day they travelled over the ice,
and at night the messenger made the
man lie down to sleep, while he
watched, to scare the wolves away
and keep the fire burning. It was long
past midnight when he awoke the
sleeper and asked him to watch, so
that he himself might snatch a nap
before setting out again on the long
journey.
The messenger was sleeping soundly,
when he was startled by a blow on the
head. He leaped up, and was terrified
to find that his companion was stand
ing over him, striking at him with
an ak.
The messenger dropped to one side
and threw off his sleeping robe and the
fur cap that had saved his life. Then
the would-be murderer was plainly
embarrassed. To be sure, he had the
ak, but it is not so easy to kill man
when he is looking He hesitated, and
in that second the messenger conceived
brilliant thought.
"Ah, poor chapl" said he, pathetical-
", as one conciliates a snarling dog.
Gold and hunger have driven him
crazy!"
The man let the ak fall. He almost
smiled. 1t was so well TO be out of
nasty job. Yes, he would be crazy.
Appearing to forget the matter, he
left the ak where it had fallen, and be-
gan to rummage in the grub sack. The
dogs awoke, and the two men break
tasted and started long before the
dawn. That day the messenger carried
the ak, and insisted that the madman
should walk in front.
At the next mounted police station
the man, much 10 his surprise, WIS
handed over to the officer in charge.
Now his efforts 10 play crazy wero

Betrayed by a Kiss.

Just as the Angelus bellt led out
its sweet matin chimes yesterday
morning and while the lips of the
faithful we're beginning the "Ange-
lus Domini" and repeating their
three Ave Marias, in honor of the
incarnation, George Green stepped
up to woman as she lighted from
the early morning train and kissed
her. The next instant, and while
that Angelus bell lolled out IFS
morning signal, the heavy hand Of
Marshal Herring was laid on the
shoulder of George Green, and the
words ''you are my prisoner"
sounded as a jarring cord on the
''incense breathing morn"
George Green was wanted at
Vinita, charged with stealing d
horse. He was known to be in
the town but could not be located.
Late Saturday night Marshal Her.
ring received wire from Vinita
stating that Lizzie Reynolds,
Green's sweetheart would be down
on the Sunday morning train, and
it was thought that Green would
be there to meet her. Sure enough
"folIow the woman and you'll get
the man" was again exemplifed
and our modern Javert pounced
upon his prey as did theinfexible
incarnation of justice on the hunt
ed Jean Vatican. Green was ar
rested and placed in Jail and Lizzie
Reynolds now mourns the separa-
tion Of her lover. While it was
not the act Of a Judas, still there
was the same element of danger.
Leaving out the deadly microbe
that's supposed to lurk in kiss,
this should be another warning, a
terrific warning. Muskogee Times
