OIL WAS OF POOR QUALITY
Trials Of a Courtenay Man Who tA-
perimentcd With New
Kind.

Numerous stories concerning the
poor quality of kerosene have been
floating around but DR.. Baldwin tells
about the best so far related. DR..
Baldwin was in Courtenay this week
releasing a smallpox patient named
Eaton from quarantine. Eaton had
been quarantined for several weeks
and the people furnished him with
water, kerosene and other liquids
in bottles. To DIR. Baldwin Eaton
complained of the quality Of oil furn'
ished him. "The last bottle of oil
they sent me was very bad," he said.
"When l put it in the lamp it always
goes out. 1t is about the worst have
ever tried to USE"
DIR. Baldwin agreed that the oil must
be very bad and examined some left
in the bottle. 1t did not have the

SEARCHED A NUMBER OF ROOMS
Authorities Looked for a Valise and
Contents Stolen From
DEPOT.

w. II. Mulhein secured search
warrant Thursday and with Deputy
Sheriff Severn searched number of
rooms for grip and contents stolen a
few weeks ago from the Jamestown
depot. They found a number of arti.
cles corresponding in size and appear
ance to those in the stolen valise but
Mulhein could not positively swear
that the same were his. The grip
was not found. Mulhein sayst he
valise and contents were worth about
go.
Mrlhein delayed reporting the mat.
ter to the police too long, as it is be-
lieved the capture Of the thieves could
have easily been affected if prompt
action had been taken. Mulhein left
his property in the depot waiting
room for a day and it is hard matter
to fix the crime on anyone at this late
date

The new time folder of the 500 show
ing the 70 mile extension to the pres
ent terminus of Pollock, in Campbell

Alleued Murderer of Simon WeICh of
Bismarck Captured Near West
Superior.
Robbery was the Motive Alleged to
have prompted the Mur-
der.
Acknowledges Chilkotf is His Name,
But Says He is Not Guilty
of Crime.

Bismarck, N. d., Feb. 4.-After be-
ing IS months at liberty and wanted
by officials for the murder Of Simon
Welch, four miles from this city, otfi-
GERS here have received word that Ul-
ric Chilkotf is in custody of the police
at West Superior, and Sheriff Bogue
and States Attorney Allen left this
afternoon to bring him back.
Chilkoff is an ex-convict, and is
charged with having murdered Welch
at his farm house in May, 1900. Welch
was miser and believed to keep a
large sum of money in his house.
Suspicion was attached to Chilkoff
from the fact that he was known to
have been endeavoring to gain the
confidence of the old man. When
Welch's death was discovered Chilkoff
was at a grading camp on the Wash
burn road. Rumors reached him that
he was suspected and he left camp in
the night, escaping only few min
utes before the officers arrived to ar
rest him. He boarded through
freight train for Minneapolis and has
eluded the officers since that time.
Chilkof was working in the lumber
woods near Superior when arrested,
and is said to have confided his crime
to a supposed friend when under the
influence OF liquor. The news was
carried to the Superior police, and the
arrest followed.

SERENADED At WAIKIKI

Waikiki has recently had something
in the way of a mild sensation. Four
young men and one young lady, all OF
HON arc well known in society. de.
Cjded to celebrate the Chinese New
Year so, with an ukulele, violin and
a guitar, they sailed forth to serenade
their friends in the neighborhood.
They went to various houses at late
hour of the night. The three must.
clans brought forth harmonious Hawa.
iian airs while the two remaining
members of the quintet gathered N the
lucre with which the generous popula-
ton of Waikiki rewarded their must
cal efforts. Various and exceedingly
humorous were the adventures which
were met at the different houses. so
say the serenaders. terrible cpl
demic of dangerous illness must have
been raging in the palmy suburb II
truth was spoken by the people of the
various houses at which a careful
paterfamilias would carefully peep
through the blinds and bid the sere-
naders to go way back and sit
down" as there was somebody sick
inside"
At other houses. the advent OF tho
serenaders would be greeted by a sud.
den extinguishing of all lights and an
awful stiffness inside.
At one place where a young couple,
well known to the serenaders. reside
the following dialogue, which followed
upon the sound of the first strains OF
music, was heard: "0h. John, give
them a quarter so they will go away"
John: "0h. never mind. ! haven't
any change" John II you don't go |
will" Sounds issued from the Interior
proclaiming that John had evidently
thought better of II and was coming.
The serenaders were by this time so
convulsed with laughter that John dis
covered their identity and the musi.
clans missed a quarter.
The serenading came to an abrupt
end however. 1t was decided that
certain Crusty old gentleman who re-
sides in the park ought to be entertain
ed and accordingly the musicians went
to his place and began very plaintive
Hawaiian air. The old gentleman evil
IDENTIFY had no music in his soul for he
suddenly appeared upon the scene with
revolver and fired two shots. which
sent the serenaders scampering
through the liawes.
The proceeds of the serenading trip,
which consist of numerous niCkels,
some dimes and a few quarters and one
half-dollar will go to swell the fund
