Melodrama has been outdOne by a

body was taken into the chapel An
other inmate, who had seen the body

self with shroud, and fell asleep.
A few hours later a priest arrived
and conducted requiem mass. When
It was finished bearers lifted the coffin
to take 1t away for the burial. The
motion woke the mailman, who jumped
out, struck one of the bearers a blow
on the head and ran away. The bearer
collapsed and died from fright, while
the priest and the others fled panic
stricken. 5ala tt
Their cries brought crowd to the
chapel entrance. Eventually some OF
the bravest ventured inside to ascer-
tain what had happened. They found
an empty coffin and a dead man on the
floor, and naturally put the corpse into
the coffin. They then began to search
for the shroud, which the mailman had
taken away with him. One Of the
searchers opened the cupboard in the
hope Of finding something at to cover
the body. Directly he did so the hid
den dead man fell on him head first
and knocked him down. l&.8t
The live man tainted from fright,
and panic again filled the chapel. the
crowd rushing out and scattering
through the city. 1t was only after
several hours work by the police that
the matter was cleared up and popular
excitement subsidized.

Chicago.-An agreement between the

The feature of the agreement Is the
stipulation that the coast farmers must

the bylaws of tn U. s. Grain Growers
the only concession being that it may
be paid by the far west organization
members in installments, the last Sc

no group will be admitted on basis

only an elaboration Of the policy of &C.

agreement becomes effective it must be
approved by a U. S. Grain Growers

INDIANS SELLING DEER
Fashion for Brides Leggings Among
Them the Cause. ...

Fashion for Brides Leggngs Among
Them the Cause.
The time-honored fashion of buck
skin leggings for Yakima Indian
brides has reduced the number Of
deer in the Cascade mountains In
alarming proportions. 49,.
This is the warning statement given
out by State Game Warden C. W..
Darwin of Washington.
According to tradition it requires
three deer skins to make the proper
kind Of leggings for a belle of the
tribe who is about to wed.
Darwin has investigated and found
that there are now an average of lO0
weddings each year in the Yakima
tribe. In and out of season deer have
dwindled rapidly in that part of the
state where Yakima Indians range
and fish or hunt.
1t is reported that when deer can
not be found on the reservation, the
Indians have some method of going
into the surrounding deer country and
driving them back to their own lands.
The state game warden intends to
enter into a conference with the big
chiefs in order to induce the Indians
to change their custom from deer
skins to shark skins or cloth.
The custom Of the Yakima Indians
is one followed by other Pacific Coast
tribes. The bride is supposed to wear
the wedding leggings until they are
worn out To wear them long time
is an omen of happiness and prosper
ity in the new home.
