Is DENCHIK A JEW
Mr.. M. Warner Tells Why No Jews
Xiii Birds.

Mr.. M. Warner, of East Canaan,
takes issue with Justice Ford state
ment Of the nationality Of Frank Den
chik of Canaan Valley, who was ar
rested and fined for shooting robins and
other inf actious of the game laws, as
reported in Tie News last week.
Justice Ford assured The News that
the prisoner stated in court that he was
a Russian Jew. Mr.. Warner, who is a
Russian jew, disclaims, for his race,
the implication that any Jew would be
guilty of the offense for which Mr..
Denchik was fined. He says Denchik
is a Polander, and not Jew, and that
no Jew would eat game that was killt d
in the manner pursued by Denchik-
their religion prohibits it, as every one
knows, and naturally Mr.. Warner de-
sires to have the matter so stated.

Octogenarian Kills Himself.

Lemuel Dewey, SO years old, life
long resident of CRANKY, committed
suicide Monday afternoon at his home
in North Cranky by shooting himself in
the forehead with an old fashioned pistol
He was evidently sitting on his bed be-
fore "a mirror when he shot himself.
Dewey had been boarding with, a
family named Smith which received in
return the free use of part of his house
and Monday, Mrs. Smith had gone to
look at another rent in the vicinity. 1t
is thought that knowledge of this was
the reason for the deed. Just after
Mrs. Smith returned she heard shot
but did not dare to go into the bedroom.
She ran to neighbors and one of them
returned and found the man lying on
the bed with his head on the floor.

When Dunn county was organized,

required to change the county seat in

tended that a majority vas all that
was required, but the commissioners
decided differently and the matter was
taken into court. AS athe action fin

and attorneys for Dunn Center con-
tend that the matter ca be brought up
again on a different line. 4
Dunn Center is in almost the exact

SECURED AN ASSISTANT.

Rev. G. H. Severance returned from
Spokane last Friday where he attend
ed meeting of Episcopal ministers
He has been supplied with an assistant
who will have charge of the south end
of the county with headquarters at
Brewster. Since Rev. Severance came
to Oroville he has had the entire coun-
ty in his missionary district, and has
held services at Oroville, Loomis, Con-
concully, Horse Springs coulee, Omak
Okanogan, Brewster, Twisp and Win
throp, occasionally visiting other
Towns in the county. This is more terri
tory than one man can cover. and yet
the gentleman has gone on with the
work unassisted for months. He has
seen the number of communicates
grow steadily, and permanent church
organizations have been perfected in
number of the communities mention
ed, owing largely to his zeal in the
Masters service. Progress of organi.
cation has reached such a point that
an assistant to carry on the work was
absolutely necessary, and upon the
showing made tee bishop of the do
cese has at last supplied the want.

ADJUDGED INSANE.

Last week Mrs. John Miller, young
woman of only 20 or 81 years of age,
living some two miles southeast of
town, was taken violently insane. She
became manageable, running in her
bare feet and almost in state of nu-
dity to neighboring houses at consid-
|.erable distances, asking for protection
The unfortunate woman was laboring
under the hallucination that her hus-
band was chasing her around with a
revolver with the object of killing her
DR.. Lewis was called in, but the case
was beyond the reach of medical aid
Last Thursday evening she was exam
med in Oroville by Court Commits
sioner Geo. Lee, of Okanogan, and
Prosecuting Attorney Johnson. Both
DR.. Lewis and DR.. Elmer testified to the
insanity of the patient a condition that
was altogether too apparent without
the necessity Of expert testimony. Mrs
Miller was adjuGged insane and COM
mitted to the Medical Lake asylum by
the commissioner. Mrs. Stella Brogan
travelling guard from the asylum ar
rived Friday evening and the patient
was taken to Medical Lake Saturday
morning. One of the saddest features
in the case is that the woman leaves
three very young children.
