KILLED BY CLOTHES line
San Francisco Couple Electrocuted
i'm Their Yard.

San Francisco, Nov. 23.-Jean
Pucheu and his wife were accident
ally electrocuted in the yard of their
home in this city last night by COM
ing in contact with a live wire. The
wire had broken during the day, fall
ing across the clothes line on which
the family washing was displayed.
Pucheu noticed the broken wire and
picked it up. The current was not
turned on for the wire fed arc lights
used only at night.
Pucheu fastened the loose end to
the same tree to which the clothes
line was attached and forgot all
about it. At dark the current was
switched on and the tree began to
burn. Pucheu started to play the hose
on it, but was warned not to do SO
by his neighbors. Mrs. Pucheu sud
denly remembered the clothes on the
line and determined to take them in.
Before she could be warned of the
danger she touched the clothes wire,
which was in contact with the cleo
trio light wire, and was instantly
killed. Pucheu rushed to her aid
and as he raised the body his head
touched the clothes wire and he fell
dead across the body of his wife.

INDIANS FORM SOCIETY
Will Be Both Political and Social I'm
Character.

Lewiston, Idaho, Nov. 22-Lead-
ers of the Nez Perces Indian tribe
will meet in Kamiah November 26 to
organize an. Indian society for social
and political purposes. The move
ment has the approval of Chief Moses
and is expected to grow into large
and powerful organization. 1t will
be the only one of it's kind in the
Northwest, if not in the United
States.
Corbett Lawyers, secretary to Su-
perintendent Lipps, a Carlisle grad
uate, and James Stewart, of Kooskia,
a Government civil engineer, will or
ganize the association and draft the
constitution. While it will have a
social side, the association will have
considerable political significance, as
the Indians will devise plans for
tribe protection, which will be sought
through the mediations of the asso-
citation with the Indian Department.

Pekin. Nov. 23.-While all is quiet
in Pekin, attachments of troops
guard the city gates and gendarmes
are on duty at the approaches to the
foreign legations. The government
has not ceased to take precautionary
measures, for revolutionaries are
spreading all kinds of reports, which
might act like firebrands to the spirit
of uneasiness underlying present con-
ditions in China.
There have been rumors of an in
surrectionary movement in the south,
but this has proved to be only a
minor outbreak among the artillery
and cavalry stationed at Nankin.
Nevertheless, it has been thought
advisable to post a guard at each of
the gates of Pekin, and half com
panies of Chinese regulars are now
under arms at these points.

TO COMPLETE LEFTY
GENERAL MARSHALLS REPORT
URGES IMPORTANCE OF BIG
UNDERTAKINGS.
Government and State of Washing
ton to Improve Columbia and
Snake Rivers.

Washington, Nov 21-It Is evil
dent from the annual report of Gen
eral Marshall, Chief of Army Engin-
GERS, in which he discusses river and
harbor improvements in the North
west, that in his opinion the Cello
canal and the Columbia river jetty
must be completed bef0reS the other
large and important improvements
are undertaken on a large scale
Moreover, he considers these projects
of such value as to justify Congress
in making such appropriations as will
enable the Government to complete
these works in the near future The
report, from a practical standpoint,
Is one that will be satisfying to the
people of the entire Northwest, and
the plan only needs Congressional
sanction to carry 1t to completion.
This report will form the basis for
the river and harbor bill to be passed
at the coming session.
Because of the increase in cost of
materials and the higher cost of la
Dor, the estimate of cost of The
Dalles-Celilo canal has been revised,
and instead of being $4,125,000 as
originally estimated, 1t is now set at
$4,9OO,000.
Congress has athorized the total
expenditure of 100000 in the i'm
provement of the Columbia river be-
tween Cello Falls and the mouth Of
the Snake river. The State of Wash
ington has appropriated $25. 900 ad-
ditional for the improvement of Una
tilla Rapids. Part of the Govern
ment money is being spent on a
steamboat equipped for drilling and
removing lodges, and raking gravel
bars, which are the two forms of
obstruction in this portion of the
river

ROBBER HOLDS AT BAY
WHOLE NEVADA TOWN

Reno, New, Nov. 22-Detected as
he was holding up the Court saloon
in Battle Mountain late last night, a
Mexican broke through the door and
running into Night Policeman w. F.
Coon, shot the officer in the jaw;
then held up the gathering crowd as
it collected. Cowboys and miners
called for assistance, and rushing the
robber, were repulsed by his fire..
The Mexican backed down the
street, forcing everybody in sight to
follow him. When he drew away
from the saloons he ducked into the
darkness.
The town, aroused by the outrages,
started on a man-hunt; and farmers,
hearing the shooting, came into town
with their lanterns They carried
these lights about with them seek
ing the robber, and several times
shot at each other when they thought
they had found the daredevil Next
