The Eickapoo Indians have very
peculiar marriage custom. They sim
ply select their wives. and if the seiec
ton is mutual they reside together as
man and wife. and nothing is said
There are no scandals among these
people Husbands and wives are true
to each other and the quiet under
standing is considered as sacred as our
marriage VOWS There are few act
that can be termed criminal among
this small band of Indians. Murder is
seldom heard Of and death is the pen
atty for tie crime. Robbery from each
other is unknown. All their posses
sions could be piled together in the
street. and no one OF them would think
of taking the property. Their religion
is the same rs Columbus found among
the Indians when he first landed in
America. They believe that there are
two spirits-the great. coed spirit ana
the bad spirit. After death the wicked
are supposed to fall victims to the bad
spirit. The religious worship is ear
ried on every day. 1t consists CT dances
and singing and beating of tomtoms
They are very delicate regarding their
belief and seldom take a stranger into
their confidence Kansas City Journal

INTERESTING TO SOLDIERS
a General Increase Is Proposed in In
valid Pensions.

Washington, Jan. 2S.-Representa-
tive Sulloway of New Hampshire,
chairman Of the committee on invalid
pensions, has introduced a distinctly
service and age pension bill which
will give to each soldier who has serv-
ed ninety days and who reaches the
age of sixty-two So per month; sixty
six years, SO per month, and seventy
years, $12 per month In addition to
the above rates his bill gives to the
men who served two years or more
an additional increase of 81 per month
in each Of the above classes. The bill
increases the minimum OF pensions al
lowed to So per month, instead of IS,
which will increase the pensions of
125, 1874 soldiers who are now on the
rolls at SIS per month. The bill further
provides that the pensions of widows
who married the soldiers prior to Jan.
1, 1870, and who are now on the rolls
drawing So shall be increased to $12.
Heretofore the law has been that they
could not get $12 unless their hus-
bands died of disease contracted in
the service This bill will give an in
crease to the men who served ninety
days. and increases for the men who
fought through the entire war, and
also increases the pensions of the
widows who married soldiers during
or Immediately following the war.

TRY TO DODGE
new TARIFFS

CITY OF MEXICO. March 81
During the last week or so the Gus
tom houses OF Mexico have had the
busiest period of their existence ow-
ing to the rush of importers to get
their goods through before the new
tariff laws become effective tomorrow
The new schedule is designed to pro-
tect the growing manufactures of the
republic, and the imports from the
United States are expected to drop
of considerably owing to the increas-
ed duties. For instance, the duty has
been raised on machinery, dry goods,
vehicles. clothing. iron, telegraph
poles, betting, railroad rails, struc-
tural iron and steel, bottles and mir
rors. Steel rails, hitherto free. will
pay duty Of $40 per metric ton.
and leather betting will pay so cents
per kilogram, against l cent former
ly Other commodities on which a
prohibitive tariff has been placed are
Virginia tobacco and fencing wire.

NO ONE ACTS
+. IN JENKINS
F. MATTER
NO STEPS TAKEN TO HOLD MEN
INVOLVED IN STREET CAR AC-
CIDENT - PROSECUTING At
TORNEY WATTS FOR TRAN
SCRIPT OF EVIDENCE.

at will be some time before the
testimony in the jenkins inquest is
ready to be submitted to the prosecu-
ting attorney said Coroner Smith
today when asked if any steps were
being taken in the matter of holding
any one responsible for the accident on
March 20, in which George jenkins
sustained Injuries that resulted in his
death several days later.
Il am having the testimony in the
Stevens case transcribed first contin-
ued the coroner, "and there is nothing
further for me to do in the jenkins
case. 1t is up to the prosecuting
attorne.-."
"No steps have been taken in the
Ease as yet said Prosecuting Attorney
kimball when asked about the jenkins
matter. 81 will wait until the testi-
mony has been forwarded to me.

Hoffman, charged with doing black
smith work in the city without a
license.
The demurrer to the complaint was
heard last week and the justice has
had the case under advisement.
The principal feature on which the
decision is based is that the legis-
lature has a right to enact such laws
only when they come under the po-
lice power of the state in the Interest
of comfort, health, safety, morals or
general welfare. If the law is sus-
tanned, it must be shown that 1t
comes under the police power.
Il can see no way in which the act
In any manner tends in the least de-
gree toward protecting either public
morals, safety, comfort, health or
general welfare, and I would there
fore hold the law is unconstitutional"
said Justice Stocker 1.-THE demurrer
is sustained
The decision also held that the law
tended toward monopoly and that the
fact that only blacksmiths in. cities
of the first, second and third classes
were bound by it is class legislation.

AMIN TERNATl0NAL
BOARD OF health

PARIS, March 3l.-From October 10
til the beginning of December meetings
were held in Paris for the purpose of
devising the best means for the proven
ton of epidemics. The meetings had
adopted the name of an international
sanitary conference" The first object
was to agree upon period of observa-
ton time in case of suspected plague.
Up till now it had been deemed
necessary to keep human beings and
freight suspected of Infection by the
plague bacilli under close observation
for 10 days.
The conference has arrived at the
conclusion that the period can be
reduced to five days.
1t has been the aim of the conference
on the one hand to find the best
possible guaranty for the public health,
but on the other hand to choose the
measures for this purpose SO as to in
terfere with international commerce in
the least degree.
For the present only the principles
for prevention of plague and cholera
were discussed. Before adjournment
motion was made to create an inter-
national health board as permanent
institution, having its main Office in
Paris.

PERJURY CASE

Judge Richardson today denied the
motion of Frank Rutledge for new
trial in the case in which he was tried
for perjury and denied the motion for
an arrest of Judgment, but allowed a
relaxation of the costs of the case.
In the original cost bill in the case
of Frank Fair the witnesses, Eichen-
auer, Bailey and johnson, all of Pros
ser, testified and were not allowed
fees because Judge KEENAN, was of the
opinion that they testified falsely. They
were called in the Rutledge trial but
the prosecuting attorney did not in
clude~ them among those entitled to
witness fees.
In sustaining the petition, Judge
Richardson expressly stated that his
ruling was in no sense to be taken as
opposed to that of Judge KEENAN,.
Judge Richardson said that he had
heard but little of the evidence in this
case and that what he heard was not
sufficient to persuade him that the wit
nesses were testifying falsely. Judge
KEENAN,, on the other hand. he said
had heard the examination of the wit
nesses at the Fair trial and was able
to Judge the matter. At the Rutledge
trial the witnesses in question were
asked but few questions by the prose
cutting attorney-not enough for the
court to form an opinion as to the
truth of their statements.
Rutledge will appear before the court
tomorrow morning for sentence. Ii is
not known whether his attorneys,
Robertson, Miller & Rosenhaupt, will
appeal or not.

NO NOPE
H0LDUpS
POLICE BELIEVE THE HIGHWAY
MEN WHO OPERATED IN sPo-
KANE ARE THE THUGS WHO
FOUGHT WITH THE SEATTLE
POLICE.

No more holdups were reported to
the police last night and today. and
the officers now believe that gang
which held up several citizens Tues
day night has left the city.
Captain Coverly is today more in
clined to believe that the highway
men who got in their work Tuesday
night are the same as those who en-
gagged in fierce battle with Detect
ives Kennedy and Burns of the Sc
attic police department in that city
Monday night.
After the fight in Seattle there is
no doubt but that the thugs lost no
time in leaving the city, as the en-
tire police department of the Queen
City was sent out to scour the town
for them. 1t is the belief at the local
station that the robbers caught
either Northern Pacific or Great
Northern trains, landed in Spokane
the next day, stayed In this city just
long enough to effect the holdups
Tuesday night and then again took
to the road for some place where
they would be less liable to be ar
rested.
The ARRAY in Seattle, in which 81
shots were fired and seven men were
engaged. took place at the corner Of
Sixth avenue and Seneca street. The
robbers crouched. behind telegraph
poles and had all the best of the af-
fair with the officers. Detective Ken
nedy got a bullet hole through his
coat. Otherwise not piece Of lead
found a mark.

ASSESSOR ON
SKEES

I'VE had hoped" said County AS
SCISSOR Stewart, ito have the bulk of
the outside work finished by the end
of this month. but the weather kept
the deputies back a great deal. We
hope, however, to soon finish most of
the work
THE men have had hard time
getting over the country owing to the
almost impossible roads. IL weather
like today continues we will be able
to make great Roadway. Up in the
northeastern corner of this county we
have deputy who is going from
place to place on skis. The snow is
deep and the country il rough.
Outside OF the business district
the city work is about done and will
be completely finished soon. The
work is slower in the business dis
trict and will not be completed for
several weeks. Considering what the
deputies have had to contend against
feel that they have done very good
work"

ignoring the advice of her counsel, in
sisted upon verdict from the present
jury.
When court convened. Attorney
Knight for the defense arose and an
nounced that his client refused to be
bound by the motion made yesterday
that the jury be discharged. Accord
ingly, the counsel withdrew the
motion and the court, addressing the
prisoner. asked her if she had any
thing to say in the matter. Mrs.
Betkin arose and in well -modulated
tones said:
"Your honor. in opposition to the

was nothing else to do but to go on
with the case, and the jury was brought

CUTTING DOWN TREES

Work has been commenced by the
Washington Water Power company
fixing up the old baseball grounds at
Natatorium park. All day yesterday
five teams and force of men were
filling in and leveling the diamond.
1t will be raised about FIVE feet in
places and otherwise improved.
The younger generation of fans will
have a hard time of it this year. The
men have been hard at work outside
the diamond cutting down the ever
green trees, and as they did 80 they
have been watched by lot of sad
eyed and lonely looking gamins.
"Youse mugs is meaner den Bill
Shannon" said one as he protected
a match from the wind and lit q
Quits" of a cigarette. How youse
thinks us kids isalgoin' Z watch d
game and root fer our fellers? Tell
you what, fellers, well holler fer do
otter guys dis season. eh?"
The workmen are playing havoc with
the trees, and if the kids want to
watch the game and can't locate Q
knot hole they'll have to go across
the river and watch the game from the
bluff.
