Mike Banas and Joe Huser, two
Austrians, were arrested last even
ing by the police on the suspicion of
being connected with the burglary of
the cigar and confectionery store Of
A. Pierce on Sherman street, and
this morning a complaint, charging
petty larceny, was lodged against
Banas in the court of Judge Cham
berlin.
The store of Pierce was burglar
ICED last Friday night. The entrance
was effected by reaching the rear
porch of the establishment by means
of a carpenters sawhorse, and by
cutting a hole large enough through
the panel of the door to allow the
entrance of the hand. and the door
thereby opened. Ten pennies we're
taken from the mony drawer and a
New Brunswick bill. which is worth
less because of a failure to be re-
deemed within the required time.
The bill was a five dollar denomina-
ton. This bill was the only clue
the officers had In working on the
case and each store in the city was
notified to watch out for 1t and to
Immediately inform the officers
when it was presented. Joe Huser
presented the bill last evening at the
Silver Grill in payment for a meal,
and his arrest Immediately followed.
He stated he had secured the bill
from Banas, who was located and
arrested. Banas admits giving the
bill to Huser, stating he was q

THREW BUTCHER KNIFE
Figure Form in Millinery Store OBJ
ject Of Attack.


Mrs. C. NJ. Robertson and her en-
ployes were startled last Saturday
evening by an unknown man opening
the door to their store on Sherman
street and hurting a large knife, APP
parently at the figure form standing
near the door on the inside.
The affair occurred at about 1880
O'Clock in the evening. No one in
the store secured description of the
party, as Immediately after opening
the door and hurting the knife he re-
treated into the darkness outside
and fed. The police were immedi-
ately communicated with and the
knife, which is a large one and sim
liar to those used in meat markets.
turned over to them for safe keeping.
Mrs. Robertson and her employees
regarded the matter at first In a Sc
rious light, but are inclined now TO
think that it may have been perpe-
trated by some practical joker. They
state that they have not the slightest
idea who the party was. Two other
theories advanced are that the man
was either in a state of intoxication
or mentally deranged. So far the
matter seems as to all parties con-
cerned to be enshrouded in unex-
plainable mystery.

SPOKE vows; NOT wEDDED
Anglican Ceremony In Japan Causes
Sorry Mixup.

s~AA@N@NNs
TOXIC, Japan, March 1.-THE
question OF Anglican religious mar
riages In Japan Is just now exciting
considerable attention among foreign
residents in general and English res
idents in particular. The admins
tration of Right RevI Bishop Awdry.
head OF the Anglican church In ia
pan. leaves little room for doubt that
some 80 or 40 marriages contracted
in conformity with the English law
and rites OF the English church are
invalid and that the offspring Of such
unions are lllegitImate. This Is the
outcome OF certain divorce proceed
ings which have been instituted In
England by parties who were married
by Bishop Awdry himself in Toxic.
In the course Of the proceedings
the judge declared that he was un-
able to grant q divorce on the
ground that he was not satisfied that
in the eyes of the English law a le-
gal marriage had been contracted.
If this ruling should be sustained It
must apply with equal force to all
other British marriages in Japan
contracted under the same condi-
tions. The supposed fact OF the In
validity of these English religious
marriages arises from an act OF par
lament passed after the days Of ex-
Intentionally in Japan. in which
the validity of marriages already con-
tracted was recognized. but which
said nothing with regard to future
unions.
The clergy. in the person Of their
head. having frankly avowed this
mistake. the futility Of further re-
elimination is gradually recognized
and the only point now worthy Of
consideration is a remedy. The only
feasible one would seem to be an
act OF parliament to legaliEe these ir-
regular marriages.

way by which he could clear himself
from the charge would be to locate
the man from whom he secured the

he had not the money to go there

BANDIT ROBS

had not been called and, looking up
from beneath the table where he
was resting, he saw the stranger
opening letters. AS he was crawling
from underneath the table the ban
dit turned around, whipped a revolt
yer from his overcoat pocket and
commanded him to remain silent or
he would blow his head on.
He then threw jumper over the
clerks head, bound his hands behind
him and seated him in chair at the
far end of the car, with has face to
the wall.
During the run to Spokane three
times he asked Nystuen whether he
was suffocating, and each time being
answered in the Affirmative he
opened the closet door, which he had
locked and tied with the clothesline,
and permitted the clerk to obtain
some fresh air.
Treats Victims Tenderly.
Just before Colbert, Wash, was
reached the robber walked over to
where Stumpf was seated and in
quired whether his bonds were hurt
ing him. The rope had been drawn
tightly around his wrists so that
great welts stood out on his wrists
for hours after he was released from
his letters. Stumpf replied that he
was in pain, so the bandit changed
the rope, binding his hands in front
of him instead of behind his back.
He then ordered him to get under
meath the table again, where he re-
manned till Spokane was reached.
After the train left Hillyard
Stumpf worked the jumper from his
head and looked out from under the
table. He saw the robber standing
near the door with his grip at his
side. 1t is supposed that he jumped
from the train shortly after this.
The clerks got a good look at the
robber. He is described by them as
being about five feet seven inches
high and of rather heavy build. One
describes his mustache as brown,
while the other says it was red. The
clerk with whom he exchanged mail
at Hillyard declares that the man
was smooth shaven. leading to the
belief that he had several false
mustaches with him. He had Ro-
man nose. He wore a rather short,
dark overcoat and a dark soft hat.
Bandit Carried Regulation Pouch.
The sack carried by the pseudo in
spector when he boarded the train at
Boomers Ferry is a regulation gov
eminent mail sack. 1t was left in
the mail car when the robber alight-
ed and went west with the limited.
Instructions have been wired to
western points to send it back to this
city, as it may furnish some clue in
solving the identity of the bandit. A
report reached the police about a
week ago that several mail pouches
had been stolen from the Northern
Pacific depot platform at Sprague,
1 Wash.
Inspector Linn says that the pen
atty for placing mail clerk in jeo-
pardy with a gun is Imprisonment
for life at hard labor. There is a
standing government reward of
$1,000 for the capture of such ban
dts.

Are Undergoing Another Physical
Examination BY Doctors.
An examination OF the pupils Of
the public schools was made BY ave
Of the physicians Of the city this
morning. The examination d in pur-
suance OF plan adopted some time
ago by the superintendent and board
to guard against the SPREADING Of
contagious diseases.
In view OF the fact that the a-year-
old child Of the H. s. Tenny family
IL III with diphtheria. and that three
children OF this family have been at
tending the public schools. the en-
animation was especially made look
ing TO any signs or Indications OF
this disease. The young boy, Clyde.
who has been attending school, was
suffering from sore throat and II
was feared that this was also a
case Of diphtheria. but an examina-
tion proved It to be a case OF tom
silitis. The family has been quar-
antined.
The examination made BY the
physicians this morning showed a
number Of developments as 70 tho
general health conditions Of the pu-
pills In the public schools. II is
stated that fully so per cent Of those
who were examined were found TO
have threats which were badly in
need OF medical attention and treat
ment. Among other affections found
were adenoldn. enlarged tonslls. and
evidence OF tuberculosis OF the

are experiencing with many Of the
pupils can be traced directly 10 these
physical ailings. The superintendent
has adopted the plan Of having the
different instructors send . note 70
the parents OF the child affected. tell
ing what the examination OF the
physician has discovered, and recon-
mending that the child be taken to
a physician for medical treatment.
The examinations Of the pupils by
the physicians are made free OF
charge. and much good is resulting
from this plan. not only IN prevent
ing the spread Of contagious dis
eases, but also In bringing to light
the general health Of the pupils. The
system Of having a hired physician
to make examinations Of the pupils
in the public schools has been adopt
ed in most eastern schools and IL
meeting with success. The superin-
tendent believes that a similar plan
ought 10 be adopted In this city. and
feels assured that the results now-
ing from It would be beneficial to all
concerned.
