PEACE PREDICTED WITHIN A WEEK

She in turn notified her husband.
Mr.. Homyers, who lives on the oppo-
site side of the road, was called, and
notified Coroner Clough. The coro-
ner went at once to the scene of the
hanging, and cut the body down The
dead man was about 80 years of age,
had blue eyes; height about 5 feet, 6
inches, light air and a small mus
tace. Judging from the appearance
of his clothing he was evidently a
laboring man. He worse striped ov-
eralls, sweater vest of light color,
a dark worsted coat and soft hat.
Had Employment Office Card.
Sheriff Mimic was called by the
coroner, but was unable to identify
the man. The only effects found on
the clothes was small slip Of paper,
which resembled the memorandum
slips used by employment agencies,
or by concerns employing a great
many men. In the upper left hand
corner is the form number, which
reads: Form ga M-5-23 100. c.

Is space left blank for the name and
one for card number. The name of

first blank space with lead pencil,
and the card number is given as

On the bottom Of the card, in
small print, are the words Look

Picked Small Tree.
The rope which the man used to
hang himself, and which is now at
Coroner Cloughs office, is one-inch
rope about 20 feet long. The man
placed this around a limb on a small
grub oak tree and then jumped from
the limb. When Mrs. Pendleton saw
the body, which was erect, she re-
marked to her husband that man
was standing down in the grove near
the house, Upon investigation Mr.
Pendleton discovered that the mans
feet were not touching the ground
and that he was hanging from the
end of rope. Mr., Pendleton then
asked Mr.. Homyers to telephone
Coroner Clough. The small tree on
which the stranger hanged himself
is just outside of Mr.. Pendleton's s
barn and nearby this small tree is a
much larger one with larger
branches. 1t appears odd that the
man should select the small tree for
his purpose. Mr.. Pendleton keeps a
bulldog in his barn during the night
and this prevents strangers from en-

IT ALL RESTS WITH

Washington, April 22.-Renunci-
alton of any jurisdiction over the
Alaskan railroads or the regulation
Of rates in that territory was made
today by the Interstate Commerce
Commission. The commission de-
clared that all regulation of Alaskan
rates lie in the hands of the secre-

Declaring that after a careful ex-
animation of several sources of in
formation that he finds that immoral
ity among the students at the Chem
ava Indian school is matter of COM
mon knowledge; that the superinten-
dent has upon one occasion whipped
girls ranging in age from Is to 21
years; that he has had some of these
children whip each other; that he
has failed to observe the letter and
spirit of the religious regulation and
that he does not carry the pupils

Valentine, commissioner of Indian
affairs at Washington, D. c., is now
Investigating the truth of the charges
and has called upon Superintendent
E. L, Chalcraft to reply to them,
which he did several days ago.
Trouble has been brewing at the
indian school for Superintendent
Chalcraft for some time, but it was
not until in March when Assistant
Superintendent W. P. Campbell visit
ed Washington and had conference
with the commissioner that it was
reduced to formal charges. Just who
all the sources of information re-
ferred to by the commissioner are is
not known, but it is understood that
one is Assistant Superintendent
Campbell, who, according to Superin-
tendent Chalcraft, is actuated by an
ambition to succeed him as superin-

To the immortality charge Superin-

Armlstice Effective.

El Paso, Tex, April 22.-The ar
mistice between the Mexican federals
and Madero's force is effective here
today and there is little prospect Of
further fighting.
Gonzales Cara, head OF the rebel
junta in FL Paso, believes the armis-
tice will result in ultimate peace but
he refuses to state the conditions on
which the fighting has ceaesd.
The granting Of a third armistice
has had bad effect on Madero's
troops. Many of them deserted and
came to Ell Paso this morning, dis
gusted because there is no opportun-
ity for fight. Panco villa. the ban
dit chief who has been aiding Ma
dero, is openly rebelling at the mac
tivity.
He says he wants none Of this
peace business which these kid glove
fighters are carrying on" and de-
clares that unless there is an attack
on Juarez before tomorrow night he
will undertake an independent cam
paign Of pillage,
Sonora Madero left here today for
the camp Of her husband. Francisco
Madero sr., is at hotel here and has
made no effort to leave for the camp
of his son, the rebel leader. General
Madero himself is said to be holding
a jubilatlon at his mountain camp
and to have abandoned all thoughts
of attacking Juarez.

Il doubt" he continues in explain
alton of the answer, and in further
answering the charge "if at any In
dian school in the United States
there is case of immortality that
does not become the common know
ledge of the employees and also the
pupils. 1t is no exception at the
Chemawa school, although every eff
fort is made to suppress not only the
practice, but information regarding
the same. From the beginning of my
incumbency have used every safe
guard possible in screening windows,
putting the most secure safety lock
on the dormitory doors at the cost
OF SS6 a dozen; keeping night
watchman, detailing lady employees
to chaperon girl students to and
from school, and other places where
they are likely to come in contact
with boys, and urging all of my en-
ployes to be vigilant, as my Office
letter books show. Notwithstanding
every precaution, we do have occa-
sional cases of Illicit intercourse be-
tween pupils. Since school opened
last October there have been but
three such cases, each of which was
promptly investigated by me and the
guilty parties sent away, with the
exception of one boy, who is held
pending arrangements for proper
placing.
when it is taken into considera-
ton that we have enrolled this year
nearly 700 pupils, coming from all
sorts Of environment, many from the
worst homes, and some received who
have been ruined before entering the
school, it would seem that the moral
condition is not subject to adverse
criticism

MINISTER

Huntington, W. Va, April 22.-

Rev. M. c. Johnson, minister of the
Methodist church (South) following
street quarrel, E. E. Adkins is dy-
ing here this afternoon and Johnson
is locked up without bail Both men
are directors in a brick plant here
and the quarrel arose over business
affairs.
Adkins became angered at the min
lister and knocked him down. john
son drew knife and before the po-

repeatedly in the chest and neck.

Whipping Necessary.

EFF construed in the most unfavor-
able light my answer would be yes,
and if given a reasonable construc-
tion it would be, no says Superin-
tendent Chalcraft in replying to the
commissioner with relation to the
whipping charge.
"The facts were as follows" he
continues "a group of girls in Nc
Brides hall ranging in age from IA
to II and possibly Is (none over),
had been violating rules by going off
into the country in couples and
groups, where they were likely to
meet school boys, and defying the
authority of their matron in various
ways until something had to be done
with them. The matron had talked
to them, deprived them of attending
social parties, and had locked them
in their rooms for these misdemean-
ors, but without avail On the occa-
sion of the alleged whipping their
matron reported to me that party
of eight of this group had slipped
out of their building into the country
and gone mile or more before be-
ing located. They returned in a
boisterous manner, singing and
shouting to the pupils they encount-
cred. The excuse given for this con-
duct was that they had asked some
of the classroom teachers to take
them out walking which they de-
clined to do because they said they
were too tired to go, SO the girls con-
cluded to go again by themselves if
the teachers were too lazy to do so. F"
