that of the approximately 100000

commended for the Atlantic coast for
tifications, and very little for forth
fications on the Pacific coast. Near
ly all of it will be proposed for for
tifications and other defensive work
in the Hawaiian and Philippine is
lands.
Last year the war department
asked for $10,1S0,000 for fortified
tions and was given $6,S98,OOO. It
is unoficially understood that this
years estimate of $38,443,0OO had
the approval of President Roosevelt.
This total is inclusive of projects
whose mechanical achievement
would require years of work, and
the committee is opposed to such
yearly appropriation.

The fact that many citizens are

ance with the provisions Of the fran

HOPKINSVILLE, KY, Feb. 90
The town of Gracey, in West Chris
tian county, was visited last night by
band of masked night riders. After
taking possession of the telephone
exchange and making Town Marshal
Waters a prisoner, they terrorized
the inhabitants by firing guns and
pistols.
Forcing James Wooten, a white
man, who was occupying a room at
a hotel, to accompany them, the
night riders took him to the out
skirts of the town and ordered him
to leave by morning. After leaving
warning for the negroes to go to
work, the band rode off into Trigg
county. Wooten was suspected of
being a detective.

LAND SHARK RETURNS
Noted Criminal Tells of Experiences
in China.


SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 2O.-Hor-
ace Mckinley, convicted Oregon land
shark, refugee and jail-breaker in
China, is now on his way to Oregon
Today he told of his adventures in
the orient.
While in the Mukden jail, McKin-
ley feeling safe in the understanding
that no extradition treaty existed
between the United States and China,
learned that Secretary Root had re-
Quested the Chinese government, as
matter of courtesy, to allow his ex-
tradition on a legal basis. He
learned that the request was likely to
be granted and when his friend, Billy
Read-the same William Read who
was arrested upon his arrival here
a few days ago on the transport
Crook-paid him visit in Jail, he
asked Read to take a note to his
friends of the Hung HUI Use.
The Hung HUI Use is an organiza-
ton of outlaws from all parts of the
world, with headquarters at Mukden.
The Hung Hu Use acted promptly.
Read took their reply to the prison
or. In substance 1t told Mckinley
to enter the toilet room attached to
his cell at s o'clock on the evening
of November IL. press against the
north end and the wall would fan
out. Hanging his coat where the
guard could see 1t. Mckinley fol-
lowed the directions. He fell out
with the wall and was seized by his
friends of the Hung HUI Use, who put
him In a sack and carried him away.
BY day Mckinley lay hid In a Chi
nese CONN. He took air and exercise
by night. dressed as Russian wom-
an. He was Struggled out of Muk-
den later and was getting on the
train at Hardin December 81 when
he was arrested. He was disguised
as Russian tourist and would have
made his way safely to Siberia but
for the eupidity of the Russian Jew
who had supplied the wardrobe. A
reward Of $4,000 had been offered by |
the Chinese government for McKin-
ley's apprehension and This money |
the Russian earned by pointing Nc
Kinley out to the authorities. He
was taken to Tientsein and held in
the jail until the arrival of Kerrigan
from Oregon.

ASSESSING

A great many people are protest
ing against the methods employed by
the deputy in making the assessment
of city property, claiming that 1t is
not equal and In many instances
much above the cost OF the building
when new. II these complaints are
true the matter should be looked into
before It is too late. We have no
doubt Assessor Bailor wishes to do
nothing more nor less than what is
right In the matter and such errors
as have been reported should be adj
justed and some understanding had
as to the values Of real estate and
improvements In the city. One
thing is certain, the assessment must
be the same on all classes OF prop
erty OF equal value.
The assessors of the state agreed
to assess property at fifty per cent
OF It's cash value as basis which
would be right. and II the people of
this county are assessed higher they
will be compelled to pay the state
more than their just proportion OF
taxes, If Occur d'Alene property is
assessed higher than other property
In the county II would also pay an
unjust portion Of public expenses, be-
sides the amount for city and school
district purposes would become
burden, as the levy Is now at the
limit allowed by law and an increase
In valuation would simply mean
more money to be wasted In the en-
ployment of useless officials and
hangers-on who live at the public
crib. No one Is foolish enough to
believe that increased valuation
would bring these levles below the
maximum allowed by law. There is
one consolation in the situation, II
the assessed value Is not boosted to
an unjust figure. the levy can not
be raised.

HEIRS TO sTUTLER ESTATE
Many Claimants for Refuses Thou.
sands.


SPOKANE, Wash, Feb. 2O.-Nine
people in the middle west have dis
covered themselves to be heirs Of
Laurence Stutler, bachelor and re-
cluse of spangle, Wash, who died in
the Deaconess hospital in this city
in January, leaving an estate of 3d.
900. Most of the claims of relation
ship come from Missouri, with Indi-
ana and Kansas contributing their
share. Ingrown toenails was the pri-
mary cause of his death. Gangrene
set in and 1t was necessary to ampu-
tate the leg. He did not recover
from the shock.
A communication from a woman
in st. Louis asserts that Stutler
wanted at one time to marry her,
and that for that reason she should
receive his estate. Most Of the claim
ants relate lengthy genealogy to
prove that they are nieces or neph-
ews.
The story of his death, which was
published in the newspapers OF Mis-
souri, and Kentucky, from which
states Stutler came, told of his sister
Lena, who was supposed to be his
only relative in America, and from
whom he had not heard for years.
A letter which is a type of most
OF those received is from Mrs. Mary
McGriff, Cambridge City, Ind. She
wrote to the proprietor Of the Dea-
coness hospital" as follows: Il read
in the indianapolis Star of the death
of Lawrence Stutler in your hospital
and write to tell you that l am his
only living relative in this country.
He came to this country with his sis
ter Lena and they lived in New York.
After while he went to Boston and
no one knew where he went from
there. His sister Lena married Ell
more McGriff and they had one son,
and when he was little more than
a year old his father died, and in
later years his mother died, and |
am the wife of their son, George Nc
Griff, and he has been dead Is years,
and was sick three years before that,
during which time l took care of
him. If anybody deserves the money
it is !. l work among the best peo-
pie in Cambridge City as domestic
and can give references
j. j. Browne of this city has been
appointed temporary administrator
for the estate, but said yesterday
that he had nothing to do with the
letters from people claiming to be
heirs, and would not accept them, as
that matter should be taken up by
the judge. and not by the admins
traitor.
Several days ago Lawrence Slut
Ter of Louisville, KY, asserting that
he was a nephew of the late Spangle
man and the only living relative,
telegraphed that he would be here
soon to claim the estate, but nothing
has been heard from him since.

gree OF warmth is wished 1t is better
to have an interlining, for the seen"
lining 10 Of silk in thin and chiffon
quality, sometimes brocaded, some
times finished with insets of lace,
ruchings, ETC.; OF course, the day
time coat is less elaborate in its lin
ings, which should be of heavier silk
or satin. In the cheaper grades they
will be of cotton taffeta and the mer-
cerized sateens.
A very handsome redingote of blue
velvet was shown the other day and
intended for a morning reception
given by public official The upper
part of the coat was cut on blouse
lines, but drawn closely in at the
waist, by means Of tiny tucks. The
fronts we're thrown back, revealing a
vest of cream silk, embroidered in
pastel tinted silks and the reVers were
OF Princess lace, while the cuffs had
an inset of embroidered silk and
band OF the lace. The long skirts
were attached to the waist portion
under belt or girdle; they were very
full and had no trimming whatever.
A handsome evening wrap was de-
yeloped from ivory broadcloth, trim
med with bands of embroidery and
braid and bead pendants. The gar
ment was simple In its shaping, be-
ing nothing more than a loose coat
and the sleeves were full and of the
kimono style, cut in deep point at
the back. The fiat band collar
which extended down the front was
of the embroidery and the closing
was under pendant. Shorter bands
overlapping each other passed over
the shoulders both back and front
and were also decorated with pen
dants and on the point of the sleeve
was an inset of the embroidery in
the center of which was a pendant.
Such coat is very serviceable for
wear over gowns OF the Princess and
Empire modes when of lace or silk,
or sole and easily crushed materials,
and 1t Is easy to be handled. The
same coat could be made from We
netian cloth and trimmed with braid
ed collar and cuffs and fastened with
braid frogs or fancy buttons. The
sleeves could be drawn into cuffs
braided to correspond with the col
lar. The lining should be of soft
silk in the same shade or OF a con-
trasting color. For travelling or
tourist coat gray tweed or olive
lady's cloth would be appropriate
which could be daintily fin
shed with silk or velvet trimmings.
In tourist coat high collar would |
be more serviceable idea than the |
low, fiat band. Instead of having It |
In full length 1t could be cut only |
20 the knees, or even shorter If pre-
ierred, but little above the bot
ON of the skirt makes it the better |
ength for all purposes. If not too
elaborate in its construction it could
'ften take the place of a rain coat.
