had killed the niece, while Charles
Peltier held her. He said, however,
that Charley Peltier did not know
he intended to kill the girl. He said
he had struck her with the gun, and
that Joe Peltier set the building
afire.
OnarISy ran away
Charley Peltier denied having held
the girl or participating in the crime
in any way, and said that after Joe
and Rising Sun had killed the two
seidels he had jumped through a
window and ran away.
Rising Sun Not Handsome
Rising Sun is understood, youthful,
and as brutal a specimen Of human
lity as. often seen. He has a shock
OF coarse, straight hair, uncombed,
and is of dark copper complexion.
His nose is thick and fiat; his cheek
bones high and his lips thick and
sensual. His eyes slant in an al
monds shape and are so dark as to
be almost black. He talked in low
land cultural tone, with an. OCCASION,
al grin and he seemed to take mere
|ly lull interest in the proceedings.
Peitier Almost White
Young Peltier has straight black
hair, which is the only especial In
dication OF his Indian blood, for his
complexion is no darker than that
Of the average white person. IN an
swer to questions he said he was At
teen years Of age, and gave his birth
day last Junen He looks to be old
er than this, by two or three years.
He too, seemed to find something
humorous in the proceedings tor
there was an occasional grin and a
dropping Of his eyes while Rising
Sun was being examined. He had no
apparent appreciation ct the situa.
ton or OF the fact that he is under
sentence Of death to be executed
February 5. Joe Peltier, His brother,
is the oldest Of the three and he il
also under sentence Of death to be
executed February 5.

killing the girl. When he was ask.

Charles PeItier Will Not Hang

So far as casting any additional
light on the murdererss for which
they have been sentenced, the inter:
rcgation was not especially success

stated through the Interpreter that

in the actual killing Of seidel and

Peltier, however, on his examllnaI-
ton. declared that Rising Sun had
not told the truthful story regarding

set to the store. and 1t was nearly
entirely consumed. The body Of the
niece was so badly burned = that
