United States pension agents, work
Ing along the coast country, are round
ing up the sharks who have been roll
ing in wealth for many years. It was
expected that many Of the cases would
be brought to trial at the present term
of the federal court In Charleston, al
though the conditions do not appear to
be ripe enough for wholesale raiding.
While many Of the inscriptions
agents have been driven out OF busi-
ness the past year, others are still at
work, but their efforts to fleece ne
groes are not as easy as heretofore.
Estimates of the amount Of money stol-
en- from the government by the iiluse
of the pension system are extraordi-
nary large, and the robbery got so
common that the department deter
mined to wipe out the thieves at any
cost. In most cases the work has been
carried on by negro attorneys and
agents. Many white men, some OF
whom are of high standing, have been
implicated, and at the final show down
sensational developments are expected.

Dog Saved Valuable Property.
The barking of watch dog, which
aroused the keeper on Castle Pinck-
ney, the new government supply sta
tion, prevented fearful conflagration
one night the past week. The noise
awakened Captain Whitley, and as ne
rushed out he found fire raging in the
oil house, where $4,000 gallons Of kero-
sene were stored. There is no fire ap-
paratus on the little island, and the
Whitley family, including two small
girls, had to tackle the flames. The
wooden casks, in which tin cans Of oil
were stored, caugh fire and, taking des-
perate chances, the Whitely's rolled
these out into the sea. BY heroic work,
which was carried on at great risk,
all of the blazing casks were finally un-
der water.

that such a number of persons are

Tortured to Death.

Dispatches from Skagway and Ju-
neau give brief details OF horrible
example OF witchcraft and supersti-
ton in the Hoonah Indian village
forty miles distant from Juneau.
Though very quiet and peaceful, the
Hoonah Indians are very supersti-
hous and nearly every year one or
more suffers death violently. Sew
eral days ago the Indians took man
who was believed to be possessed OF
the devil and made him the victim
offrightful atrocities. His ears we're
cut of and his body frightfully
hacked in an unsuccessful effort to
drive out the demon. The victim
was troubled with epileptic nfs
which continued. He was finally
buried alive in the earth and hls
scalp cut of, inch by inch. Omcers
have hurried to the scene from Ju-
neau on special steamer.
