In nnrI,ent AfrIcn.

A weird tale of witchcraft comes from the interior of Africa. A recent trial at the IilOngwe court proved that a native woman killed by lion had been partly eaten by another native who was accused of impersonating the lion. The prisoner confessed freely that he had eaten of the woman's dead body. the excuse being that he had pur- chased from a witch doctor" medi- cine which enabled him to turn Into a lion at will-in other words, to indulge In cannlballsm in Its lowest form as the mood took him.

BRITISH COLUMBIA POLITICS

The connection of the British Colum- bis government in the sale of Kaien is- land as a terminus or,the Grand Trunk Pacific Is developing into a scandal. It has been the topic of several scrimon- ious debates in the provincial parlis' ment at Victoria. The liberals are making use of the affair for the pur- pose of discrediting the administration of Richard Mcbride, the conservative premier.
 The prediction is made openly and freely that sn e,eetton will be forced within very sh-rt time.
 In this connection the liberals gre endeavoring to have the result of the recent election at Victoria, whereby William Tsmpleman was returned to parliament by an overwhelming plural isy, to be construed ss a rebuke to the government. While there are many indications that a reactionis developing iu British Columbia in favor of the liberal party, this contention seems far fetched. Temp!sman's big vote was probably more because of the populari- ty of the candidate and a recognition of the courtesy to the province by Laurier in naming him to a place in the Dominion cabinet.

Measure Known as Knox "In1munity
6i'i' Approved.
Washington, June 1.-What is
known as the Knox immunity bill"
as amended by the committee on judic-
larry, was passed during the day by
the senate. The measure was offered
and reported from the committee after
the recent sustaining of the immunity
pleas set up by Chicago packers fol.
lowing an investigation by the depart
ment of commerce and labor. The
amendments were adopted by the COM
mittee of the whole and the bill was
about to be passed without debate
when Senator Daniel called upon Sen
ator Knox for an explanation. The
author of the measure said the pur-
pose of the bill primarily is to make
1t clear that the commissioner of cor
porations may compel the production
of books and papers of corporations,
Notwithstanding that the documents
might incriminate the corporation,
and that the incorporators should not
be given immunity. The bill provides
that immunity shall extend only to a
natural person who, In obedience to a
subpoena, gives testimony under oath
or produces evidence, documentary or
otherwise, under OATH
