RObber Arrested.

Albetr E. Bell, alias James E. But
Ter a crook, with an international rep
utation, was arrested in Tacoma re-
Gently. q. A. Scribner, who was with
Bell and whom the police suspect of
being a criminal with a long eastern
record, was arrested at the same time.
AS the men were near the city jail,
Bell broke away and ran for the high
embankment over the railroad yards.
Without looking at the fearful drop,
and without the slightest show of hest
tation he leaped and then roll aud fell
to the bottom. He was apparently I'M
injured by his daring leap, for in a
second he was upon his feet rushing
across the tracks in the direction of the
Wharfs. He was shut off by number
of railroad employs, but cIimed with
the agility of cat upon the top of a
long line of freight cars and continued
his race for liberty, but was finally
captured.
Bell Is a crook whose notoriety has
spread to England, France and Ger
many. He has, it is claimed, robbed
banks all over the world in the past
three years of money and valuabes
He is wanted for the robbing the Kan
sas city National bank of Kansas city,
Mo, last April, of 500 GEO, the Phila-
delphia National bank of Philadelphia
of $50 900 and other banks in the east
of amounts that the police say aggre-
gate $500 900.
Bell was arrested several months ago
while sick in Denver hospital, and
taken to Philadelphia, where he made
Il sensational escape from a passenger
train and had not been heard Of until
his last arrest.

RELIGION BARRED IN SCHOOLS.

Attorney General of Idaho Rules that
IT Is Unlawful in Public Schools
Boise, Idaho, April 7. - For some
time there have been charges in cirula
ton that in some Mormon communi-
ties Mormon Religious exercises are
held in public schools.
In response to n request from Super
intendent Siders lof the Pocatello
schools, Attorney General Bagley has
handed down an opinion in which he
holds that no religious exercises shall
be held in the public schools of Idaho
and that teachers are not permitted
under the law TO even read the Bible
IN the schools. The opinion quotes
from decisions of different courts to.
show that the Bible is regarded as a
sectarian book, although all denomina-
tions take their doctrines from some
portion of it.
The opinion, in closing, holds: "All
religious exercises in public schools are
prohibited by law. Bible reading is
not permitted in public schools Teach
ers are not permitted to offer sectarian
or denominational prayers in school or
require pubils to do the same. Singing
sectarian and donominational songs is

BRITISH ROUTED TIBETANs.
Their Machine Guns Moved Them
Down.

Down.
Tuna, British India, News has
been received here Of severe fighting,
the Tbetans having attacked the Brit
ish mission under Colonel Young
husband. There were two engagements
and the Tibetans were repulsed with
heavy loss. The British captured the
Tibetan camp at Guru. Heaps of dead
were left by the Tibetaus and the trail
OF retreat was lined with dead and
wounded natives The action was fierce
and the Tibetans displayed great
bravery against machine guns and
modern rifles.
The combat at times was hand to
band, erolAers and bayonets being
hruoght into play.
Although no official expression re-
garding the victory of the British ex-
petition to Tibet is obtainable at st.
Petersburg it is certain that the matter
will not attract the attention which it
would have done before the outbreak
Of the war with Japan, when Russian
interests in the results of the expedition
were very keen. The real purposes of
the expedition were then viewed with
the hardest suspicion, it being feared
that a definite establishment of British
influence over the Grand Lama Of
HASA, which was regarded as Great
Britain's object. would be regarded as
a severe blow to Russian prestige, both
in Tibet and China.
The situation is now changed, be-
cause Russia's hands are at present too
full to leave her free to act, even if so
disposed, and secondly, perhaps of even
more Importance because there are
now increasing indications that better
relatinos between Great Britain and
Russia are iii sight, or at least there is
an III increasing desire for such rela-
tions by both countries.

DARK TOBACCO
Crop Of 1904 all in House an Cured
to the Stem.

The harvest of the 1904 tobacco
crop will practically close with the
end Of this week, when, it can be
said the crop is beyond any danger
from field damage. The work Of
securing the crop has proceeded
generally under quite favorable con-
ditions, though a few weeks have
elapsed between the first and last
cuttings and though some delays
have been experienced on account
of more rain than some former sea-
sons, the lateness Of the crop and
slow maturing are responsible for
the prolongation Of the harvest. In
the meantime curing Of the first
harvested fields has progressed
under more than ordinarily favora-
ble conditions. There has been no
weather to speak Of likely to pro-
duce shed burn or pole rot, and the
shielded leaf has need to require
but little attention from growers.
The crop is now well cured down
TO the stem and shows good text
ure and colorings. A continuation
OF the usual Indian summer wealth.
er bids fair to bring the crC
through without any Of the trout
les that are sometimes experienced
The injury from frosts so far is toe
slight TO be taken into considera-
ton. OF the late tobacco, very
little will remain in the fields at
the close Of this week. We are
coming so near the frost limit that
farmers are rushing the harvest To
finish.
There is one thing the growers
should bear in mind, that a few
warm or damp days might cause
their tobacco to shed OF house burn
on account Of the stem no, Icing
cured. II this should occur, the
quality Of the leaf would be great
/ ly injured and ruin the sale oi the
tobacco for certain purposes. To
prevent this il would Le well 10
watch the condition Of the housed
crop, and in the case Of rniavorablc
weather to fire il moderately would
prevent the damage.
