GUNBOATS JOIN IN MAN
HUNT IN PHILIPPINES
Bandit Terrorizes Islands and
Army and Navy Pursue

MANILA, May l0.-An unusual man
hunt is in progress in the Sulu islands,
a volcanic group in the eastern archi-
pelago. near the second largest Of the
-Aindanao. For several
months a Moro bandit named Jilziri,
with a considerable following, has been
on a rampage and the insular govern
ment is making every effort to run him
down The navy recently loaned the
authorities squadron OF gunboats to
search the numerous small islands of
the group and now another vessel is to
be added to assist in the strange chase.
Several land detachments have been
sent out and General Duvall, who has
gone south to inspect Mindanao, may
take hand in directing operations.
Jikiri raided the rich Parang pearl
fisheries and later murdered two white
traders. His band also attacked the
constabulary and number OF settle
ments inhabited by peaceful natives

PHARMACIST ADOPTS
BABY OF MAY YOHE
Vaudeville Star, Believed to Be
Married to British Columbian,
Relinquishes Child

PORTLAND. Ore, May s.-May Yohe
vaudeville star, once Lady Francis
Hope, later Mrs. Bradlee Strong, and
now believed to be the wife OF a
wealthy British Columbia mining man
named Murphy, became the mother of
a boy baby September 1, 1908, while
living in seclusion in this city.
BY the adoption of a boy s months
old, May 5, by Edward R. Thomas,
proprietor of the Perkins hotel phar-
macy, It has become known that the
mother of the child was the much
talked of actress whose whereabouts
is now secret. The denouement
brings with it confirmation of a. ru-
NOR current when she was here that
Miss Yohe had been secretly married
while in British Columbia.
The records of the Juvenile court
show that Mary A. Strong filed her
written consent to the adoption of the
child through Attorney Morris Hills,
who effected all the details of the
transfer of the boys custody by a
power of attorney from Mrs Strong,
who is May Yohe.

TARIFF BO[TERS
AGAIN IN FOLD
Ten Members of Philippine AS
sembly End Strike Last
ing One Month
Dissatisfied Solons Refused to
Attend Sessions When De-
mands We're Ignored

MANILA, May 10.--A unique legis-
lative incident was terminated today
by the return to the Philippine assem-
bly, of ten members of the progresista
minority who have been on strike for
month. They withdrew from the
house in a body when the Payne tariff
bill was under discussion several
weeks ago and refused to attend the
sessions or perform any Legislative
work
The majority still had quorum and
continued to hold daily sessions, but
did not take up any important meas
ures.
The original quarrel arose through
an effort of the minority to secure a
recommittal of the minority report on
the Payne bill after the assembly had
already adversely disposed of the ques-
tion.
After the dissatisfied soIons left the
hall objections were raised In some
quarters to their receiving their sal
aries while absent, but Auditor Clarke
ruled that they were entitled to pay
even though they did not attend the
sessions.
