Lady Doctor Under Sentence For
Arson Tells Experience.

Dr. Mary Latham, who had given
the authorities of Spokane county,
Wash, and Kootenai county, Idaho,
great concern as to her whereabouts
for week, was found last Sunday
evening at Jim Mosley's place 10 Hoo
doc valley, by Under Sheriff G. A.
McDonald and Deputy A. A. Merritt.
The doctor was in distress, having
lost her horse and forgotten the place
where she had left the carriage.
Sheriff Doak OF Spokane county joined
the party, Monday, and after tedi-
Gus search Of more than half day,
they located the vehicle on the side
Of Sleeps hill. The three officials,
with DR.. Latham in charge, arrived
in Rathdrum, late Monday afternoon,
and at night Sheriff Doak and DR..
Latham were passengers on Nc. 3,
bound for Spokane, where the doctor
is under sentence of tne and impris-

The Lewis and Clark Exposition

land commentaries the original ex-
ploration Of vast country, through
which run multitudinous railroads
connecting great cities, where scarce
a hundred years ago roamed only
savage tribes and unnumbered herds
of buffalo.
Merwether Lewis, one of the young
men engaged in the enterprise, was
born near Charlottesville, Va, Aug
ust lS, l774. He was distant re-
lation of General Washington, his
uncle, Fielding Lewis, having mar
red Washington's sister. AT 20
years Of age Lewis volunteered to put
down Shay's rebellion; and afterwards
he became private secretary to Presl-
dent Jefferson, who organized the
Lewis and Clark expedition. This
brilliant man died from pistol shot
a house where he sought lodging over
night, eD route to Washington on a
visit to President Jefferson. AS he
was subject to fits of melancholia,
many say he Committed suicide,
though his relatives claim that he
was murdered.
William Clark was born in Virginia
August /, 1910, and at % years of
age he entered the army, intent upon
leading the soldiers life. He was
forced to resign five years later, on
account Of failing health; and Lewis
becoming acquainted with him, see
Ig engineering and executive ability
in him. persuaded him to accompany
that which is now historically known
as the Lewis and Clark expedition.
This he did; and the company, num-

Frenchmen, Americans and one ne

The first thousand miles up the
Missouri River from St. Louis was
truly appalling on account Of the
difficulties encountered. Snags and
! half submerged logs seemed to com
bine against the craft, to prevent it
from invading the headwaters of the
river; but owing to the determinatlo;,
of the men the obstacles that beset
them were overcome, and they finally
reached Council Bluffs, where they
distributed their presents among the
! Indians.
After staying here for time, they
| pushed on their way into the country
of the Omahas, whose villages along
the river were decimated since Cru
zatte, one of the company who spoke
their language, had traded there years
before. Blackbird, an enemy, had

Washington, June 1-"Until some
word of peace comes out of TsarskOe
Selo, Nippon has but to fight on"
This epigrammatis remark of Mr..
Takahira, the Japanese minister, made
last night with the details of the vic
tory of the Japanese fleet before him,
accurately sets forth not only his Opin-
ion. but, it is believed, that of the
Washington and other neutral govern
ments represented here regarding the
effect of the battle upon Russia's pol
icy. Whether Count Cassini. the Rus
sian ambassador will be the bearer OF
that fateful word when he sees the
president to-day or Thursday re-
mains to be SEEN but the ambassador,
in conversation with a correspond
ent of the Associated Press last night,
Was More Emphatic
than at any time since the war in the
declaration that the war would go on
Indefinitely. While admitting that he
would see the president in the next
few days and have longe conference
on the general situation. the ambassa-
dor strongly discouraged any hopes OF
an early peace.
perhaps after Lao Yank there was
a possibility of peace. | will not say
there was not an idea Of peace at that
time in certain quarters, but now, af-
ter this crushing defeat? Never. The
Japanese talk Of indemnity. Russia
can better use this money in the build
ing of another fleet. Certainly this is
not the time when Russia can afford to
take up the question of peace"
1t is this apparent determination OF
Russia to continue in the face OF disas-
trous defeats on land and sea which
discourages the Washington govern
ment at this time from taking any
positive steps toward offering assis-
lance to the belligerents in coming to
an understanding. 1t is believed here,
however, that when Russia, through
her own agents, has learned the full
extent of her losses she may be APP
preached regarding peace with some
hope that overtuTes will be welcomed.
1t is such an opportunity for which
this government is watching.

Admiral Togo always fights and sell

briefest and most fragmentary reports
