Indian Carjcature.

HumOr is more or less Il secular en-
joyment, and its suggestion in pictorial
art therefore necessarily has a secular
significance. And as the chief motive
of Indian art was religious expression.
secnlarism in the form OF caricature
was never very much emphasized. But
this aspect. though not very frequently
represented. was NOT entirely absent In
Indian art. Even the Oldest records or
Indian painting bear evidence to the
fact that the sense Of ridicule or satire
was not altogether divorced from the
canons of art Of those times. Calcutta

|HASKER TELLS
OF THE KILLING
Indian Who Killed Father-in-
law Says He Had to Do

ATTACKED WITH AXE
Wife of Murderer Tells Diff
erent Story. Says She
Was Being Abused.

MONTESANO, Feb. 19.-An infor-
nation was filed in the superior court
yesterday charging William Hasker,
the Indian half breed with the mur-
der of his father-in-law, John Benn
in his shack near Oakyile last Mon
day night.
Hacker. VINO was brought to the
county Jail yesterday by Sheriff Mat
thews, gives the following story Of
the killing of his father-in-law:
I'VE lived in a little shack at the
Rosmond ranch near Oakville. and
during the night Benn and my wife
drank a lot of alcohol and became
very drunk. l tried to get my wife
to come to bed with me and she re-
fused to do so. When l urged her to
an ak as I was lying on the bed
When I saw him coming through the
door with an ak, I reached up and
caught the rife from the rack and
attempted to shoot over his head to
scare him, but the butt of the gun
evidently caught in the bed clothes
and could not shoot high enough.
Shot Proves Fatal.
"He fell to the floor and l saw
had killed him. told my wife I had
shot her father and was going to give
myself up. I walked to Cedarville
and took the night train for Cen
tralia, where l went to the police
station
Hacker says he was not drunk and
this statement is corroborated by De-
pot Agent Ed. Schwarz, of Cedarville,
and Conductor VIM. Anderson, of the
Owl train, to whom Hacker told his
story.
Sheriff Mathews, who went to the
scene, says he found the ak in the
doorway alongside the dead body of
John Benn. Hacker bears a good re-
putation among the Indians, while his
when drinking.
The Wife,s Story
Mrs. Hacker, daughter of the muir
dered man. tells the tale differently
although the actions of her husband
after the shooting speak in his favor
The wife says she had drank but
little, and that her father only was
drunk; that Hacker had mistreated
her before, and on this occasion had
bility, and that when her father came
to the rescue, Hacker shot and killed
him.
