HIS PRAYERS UNANSWERED
DoWIE's DAUGHTER DIES IN
GREAT AGONY.
Her Hair Caught Fire from a Gas
Jet-Prayer Failed to Heal L-=
the Burns.

Chicago, May 15.-Esther Dowie,
daughter of Doctor Alexander Dowie,
proprietor of "Zion," died last night,
Of burns, haing suffered for hours
without medical assistance while
Elijah H." prayed over her.
Miss Dowie was % years old and a
student at the University OF. Chicago.
Yesterday morning her hair caught
fire from a gas jet and her head and
face was horribly burned. Nurses
placed salve on the patients wounds,
as the Dowie doctrine allows for the
use of medicine externally. Mean.
while, the "divine healer" was hurry
ing to the bedside from his new city
Of Zion at Waukegan. Upon his ar
rival the attendants were excluded
from the room and Dowie sunk to his
knees in prayer. His ~supplications
lasted all day. He refused to cease
even to take the nourishment which
his followers pressed upon him. The
patient was unconscious much of the
time but rel this did not move the
father to break from his doctrine and
send for medical aid. The patient
died at 8 O'Clock in great agony, hav-
ing returned to consciousness a short
time before. News of the death did
not come out until today when the
coroner was notified. An inquest was
set for II o'clock today.
At the inquest, DR.. Dwie frequent
ly broke down under his grief. He
decla! cd that his daughters night
robe I'd been burned from her body
and that vaseline had been rubbed on
her by Deacon %Speicher's orders.
Speicher has a license to practice
medicine. He declared that during
the afternoon the patients condition
had become very serious and that DR..
Campbell, a medical man, had been
sent for to consult with DR.. Speicher.
Campbell, the witness said, had said
there was little hope. Dowie declar-
ed that when Esther regained cor
sciousness, she asked him to pray for
her. At no time, he said, had she
asked for medical attendance. The
jury then returned a verdict that
death was due to burns accidentally
received.

KEPT BACK BY SOLDIERS.
Governor Had Decided All Danger
Had Passed.

London, May 15.-According to a
cablegram the governor of Barbados,
who visited Saint Pierre on the Royal
Mail steamer Solent, has learned from
a Doctor Artier, who miraculously es-
capped the disaster, that when the
governor of Martinique, M. l.. Mout-
tet, and the insular officials had de-
cided that all danger from an
eruption of Mont Pelee was past, a
Gordon of armed soldiers and police
men was placed around the town to
prevent the people from leaving. DR..
Artier, however, went to the suburb
of Morne Rouge. He was riding
back to st. Pierre when the explosion
occurred and he turned and fed pre-
cipitately across the mountains to
Fort de France.
With the exception Of a prisoner
who was confined in a dungeon at the
time of the explosion, DR.. Artier is
really the sole survivor of st. Pierre.

WILLIE HAS VERY WARM TIME.
Grabs an Electric Wire and Lineman
Cutting It Released Him.

Grabs an Electric Wire and Lineman
Cutting 1t Released Him.
Helena, May 16.-Williei Muchen-
bach, a boy of IL years, had a narrow
escape from electrocution at noon to-
day. A live wire had broken in front
OF Gokey's grocery store, on Eighth
avenue. Leon Allen, a lineman, had
just tied it temporarily to a pole. A
crowd of children came along on the
way nome from school to dinner, and
Willie jumped up and caught the wire
with<both hands. The wire gave way
and the boy fell s~enseless on his face
in the mud. Allen saw what had hap
pened, turned back and cut the wire.
Then he carried the boy into the store,
where he revived after seven min
utes. Without waiting for a doctor,
who had been summoned, he arose
and walked home, refusing the offer
of a hack. His tongue was so swelled
that he could not speak, his eyes
bulged out and his hands were burned.
The wire carried HOO volts-enough
to kill him-but he only caught the
leakage due to moisture.

PEOPLE FLOCK TO RACES AND
THEATERs.
VERY SMALL RELIEF FUND
American Visitors Cannot Understand
the Indifference Of Frenchmen
to the Disaster. .

Paris, May 15.-The American Wis
itors here cannot understand the
seeming Indifference of the Parisians
in regard to the Martinique disaster.
+. Beyond the half-masted flags over the
government offices there are no signs
of public mourning. The people flock
to their usual resorts, attend the rae
es, fill the theaters, none of which
have been closed; no extras" are is
sued and there is no demand for
them. But when the evening papers
containing bulletins of the automo-
bile c are published they are Gag
erly purchased.
The various funds being raised for
the relief of the Martinique sufferers
10Y only totals 300, 900 francs, includ-
ing the large subscriptions of the for
eign potentates and $4,000 francs
from the municipality. The provinces
seem more interested in the disaster
than the capital. They are actively
organizing committees to raise funds
and there is much mourning at the.
seaports whose ships were destroyed.
A representative of the Associated
Press has just returned from the min
istry of the colonies. Besides the
reporters, those who were in the wait
ing DON around the green board on
which the official bulletins are posted,
were almost exclusively natives of
Martinique. Occasionally a woman
issued from the minister's room in
tears, after learning the fate of some
loved one. The opposition is begin
ming to use the cataclysm as a club
to beat the government.
The Nationalist Parte says: "We
hoped that the fetes at Brest would
have been countermanded on account
of the catastrophe over which for
eign sovereigns, courts and parlia.
ments are mourning more than our
W authorities. The flags are half
masted, but the military bands are
playing as if 10000 Frenchmen had
not persisted"
=. An American, who resided here for
a long time, said:
THE Parisians are constitutionally
unable to become deeply interested
in anything not connected with the
capital. Have you not noticed that
the papers are giving more space to
the Humbert case than to the terri
BILE loss of life at Martinique, while
early this week they devoted pages to
the death Of S%everos, the aeronaut,
and only two columns to the West
Indian catastrophe?" IA

EVERY MAN CARRIED A GUN.
Fighting Still Continues Against Gov
eminent at Venezuela.

a-H#.EL. Mn8EWH"8IN
New York, May 15.-The Dutch
steamer Prinz Frederick Hendrix ar
rived today from Ports in Venezuela
and the islands of the West Indies.
The steamer, however, passed Martin
ique. too far distant to know anything
of the eruption. +
At Carupano, Venezuela, the people
were in a state Of defense, having
fought a battle with the government
forces a few days before. The town
war barricaded and every mar carried
a gun. Captain van Der Goot. of the
steamer, contradicted the report that
the city had been bombarded. He
said it had fallen after fifteen hundred
men had gone out to meet the enemy
and only $50 returned. It could not be
learned If they had been killed,
wounded or captured, or had merely
run away. At Cumana the captain
went ashore but could find no officials
to do business with and consequently
vas unable to discharge his cargo for
that place. The inhabitants were also
under arms and business appeared to
be suspended.

TO NAME
Another Opinion Relating to tn:
Bounty Claim Question.

#.H ~ W.
Helena, May 15.-The man who
kills a coyote or wolf is the only man
who can properly make ahccvt of
killing SO as to emit, . hinsel: to the
bounty paid by the state This opin-
ion is reiterated by Attorney General
James Donovan in response to an in
quiry from County Clerk A. G. War
ner, of Teton county. The opinion
follows:
"We beg to acknowledge the receipt
of your letter of the 9Th inst. con-
corning bounty claims, and asking
our opinion as to whether a merchant
who claims to have .grubstaked' men
and sent them out to kill wolves and
coyotes can properly, under the law,
make the affidavit of the killing Of
such animals, and whether or not
such .grubstaking' Of such men
would be the cause of the killing
of such animals within the meaning
of section s071, political code, as
amended by the laws of 1899.
I'm reply we would call your at
tention to the opinion upon this sub
ject rendered by this office on April
IA of this year land which opinion is
referred to by you in your letter.
ut is our opinion that the fact that
the men who did the killing have
been 'grubstaked' by a merchant, in
stead f}the merchant having purchas-
ed the skins promiscuously, would
make no difference whatever in the
application of the section above re-
ferred to. We think that everything
stated in the former opinion of this
office would apply with equal force to
such a condition of affairs.
I'VE r clearly of the opinion that
said section contemplates that the
affidavit of killing shall be made by
the person who actually killed the
animal either directly, or indirectly
by such mean as trapping, poisoning
or hunting with hounds as mentioned
in the former opinion"

was made by Mr.. Lodge of Massachu-
sets in the senate to induce the mi
nority to fix "a time when a vote
might be taken on the Philippine
government bill, but MIR. Dubois Of
Idaho, speaking for the democratic
side, did not desire to specify a date
for the vote. Assurances were given
that the minority was not seeking
for delay, but wished simply that
discussion should be exhausted be-
fore the vote was taken.
Mr.. Dubois, representing the mi
nority, said no senator on his side
was prepared to go on with the dis
c~ussion today, but on Monday the
democrats would be ready to go on
with the debate.
M. Lodge of Massachusetts said
only three members on the republican
side desired to speak-Messrs. Dolli-
yer, Burrows and Spooner.
Minority Programme.
Mr.. Dubois said the minority had
arranged a programme which includ-
ed all on the democratic side who de
sired to speak upon the subject. The
debate, he raj certain, would be con-
%tinuous from Monday next. Mr.. Pat
terson of Colorado having suggested
that Mr.. Spooner had been kept in
reserve to fire the closing volley, the
| Wisconsin senator said that if Mr..
Patterson would Fix a near day for
a vote he would forego the opportun-
ity to discuss the bill"
Mr.. Patterson said Mr.. Spooner
never was SO happy as when he was
making an impossible proposition.
He could not fix a day for a vote if
he would
In view of the assurances received
from the minority Mr.. Lodge moved
that when the senate adjourned today
it be until Monday next, and the
motion prevailed.
Bills Passed.
Bills were then passed as follows
To increase the efficiency and
change the name of the United States
marine hospital service; providing for
an additional circuit judge in the
Eighth judicial circuit; to relieve
Captain George White, Ninth cavalry,
from liability for loss of $4,490 pub

prevent a false branding or marking
of food and dairy products as to the
state or territory in which they are
made or produced; the bill regulating
interstate commerce in falsely brand
ed goods, and n~inety-five private pen
sion bills. The senate then, at 4:25

MIKE JUARKo FELLFRoM BRIDGE
At BELT.
hit PROJECTING TIMBE9s
Head Badly Cut and the Body Bruised
Lost His ealance-verdict
Of coroner's Jury.

Belt, May 15.-Mike Jurko, a miner,
was found dead this morning in a
coulee near Farnum's livery stable.
He was found at about 8 o'clock by
a little boy, named Dugal Marks, who
was on his way to school.
An inquest was held by Judge
Burns, acting coroner, and the verdict
Of the jury was that he came to his
death accidentally by falling over a
20-foot embankment.
Mr.. Jurko was a Woodworking man,
and from the testimony it appears
that he came down town with a small
amount Of money to enjoy his payday,
but taking more than was good for
him, he met death.
According to his wife's story he left
all but a few dollars home Of his
months pay and started down to see
some friends. He left the town about
IL O'Clock, going by way of the walk
that leads over the %culvert.
He must have lost his balance and
fell, striking on some timbers and fall
ing into the water that leads into the
gulch.
His head was badly cut and the
bruises on his body showed where he
struck on the timbers that extend
owe the bank.
He was a very quiet man and had
the respect of all who knew him. At
first it was thought that it was foul
play, but after the inquest it was de-
cided that it was a pure accident, as
the man did not have any enemies in
the camp.
He leaves a wife and five children
to mourn his demise. His funeral
will be held under the auspices of the
Slovenian society, of which he was a
member. az
