PEOPLE WHO COURT DEATH.
who Refuse to Eat the Product
Of Their Live stock.

Religion has been responsible for
many vagaries, but probably no more
pronounced mania ever seized COM
munity than has possension of nearly
1000 Doukinabor settlers in the Vi
Unity of Yorktown, Man.. for they
are counting death. The Canadian
government induced these people,
who live in communities, to immi-
crate from Russia five years ago, Of.
fering them exemption from military
duty and free land upon which to
locate. Vegetarianism is one of their
beliefs. They came here, bought
horses, cattle and chickens and dill
gently titled the soil and were in a
prosperous condition when they were
seized with an additional religious
inspiration that practically amounts
to insanity.
They conceived the idea that il was
sinful to eat Of the product of their
live stock and condemned the use Of
butter, milk, cheese, eggs, etc. They
also came to the conclusion that IL
was sinful to make of Gods crea-
lures beasts of burden or to restrict
them in any way. so they drove their
cattle, horses and chickens into the
neighboring hills to let them forage
for themselves.
These people are intelligent enough
60 know that they cannot exist in
this northern latitude under such a
mode of living and they have for
months been in communication with
the authorities of Texas, Southern
California, Arizona and New Mexico
and California with view to emil
grating to locality xhere they may
suhzist on the soil asd avoid the xiS-
m 81 . northern cl-as.te.

French NotahIes Arrive.

Washington, May 22.-The remaining
members of the notable party sent to
represent the French government at the
ceremony of the unveiling of the Ro-
chambeau statue arrived here this
morning from Annapolis. The party
was escorted by Assistant Secretary OF
State Peirce to the white house, where
the president and Mrs. Roosevelt oft1-
c;ally received them.
Among those attending the reception
were Count and Countess Rochambeau,
Count de Lafayette, Ambassador Cam
hon. Nine Cambon, members of the
French embassy, members OF the CAB
met, General Miles, Admiral Dewey,
Adiutant General Corbin, senator's and
representatives. AS the French embas-
sador presented each official guest, the
president gave him a warm grasp OF
the hand and spoke a few words OF fe-
licitous welcome. On both sides there
were many expressions of international
god will and of lasting friendship be-
tween the two republics. No formal ad-
dresses were delivered. The reception
lasted about half an hour. This after
noon the naayl yacht Sylph took the
party to Mount Vernon, where two in
teresting ceremonies occurred, planting
of a tree brough. from the battlefield of
Yorktown, where Rochambeau and La
fayette shared the fortunes of war with
Washington, and laying of a beautiful
wreath on the tomb of Washington.
