MOHAWKS' DEFENSE IS
 WEAK AND TEAM LOSES
Drop Game to Middletown Eleven by 60 Score--Shakeup in Backfeid Expected.

The New Britain Mohawks lost another hard fought game yesterday when All Middletown nosed them out by q. score of 60 in the River City.
 Fault for the loss of the game is entirely in the hands of the team, according to those who watched the game, as the line, the strong pri- mary defense, was not capably sup ported by the secondary defense of the backfeld men. The line time and again took out the interference, but the man with the ball was not nailed by the backfield men. When the touchdown came, it came after the line had taken out the interference, but the man with the ball eluded both Norfeldt and Restelli.
 The second half was better con- test than the first and both teams fought it out on even terms.
 The team will practice Tuesday night, and Coach Ashley Is said to be planning a backfield shakeup.

RED MEN AS WOOD CARVERS
Many of the American Aborigines
Were Experts, as Specimens Still

Tt has been pointed out that the
chief reminder of our aboriginal life is
the woodwork and bone carving of the
Indians Of the Pacific Northwest.
While the cities Of that region are en-
terprising and important centers of IN
dustry, and while the Inhabitants OF
many Indian reservations have adopt
cd the latest farming methods and
have become prosperous agriculturiSiS.
there remain some primitive workers
whose wooden products have the s:'lne
quaint appearance as those of their
ancestors generations and generations
ago.
When they possessed no better tools
than stone axes and bone handled i'm
Elements, before the white man had
brought his iron Instruments to this
country, these Indians were experts at
their chosen profession. With their
crude implements they cut planks four
feet wide by ten feet long from tree.

The Shooting ARRAY

When Glen Pugh was brought to
Coulee, last Thursday morning, and
taken to Spokane for treatment for a
gun shot in the abdomen, it was not
known who did the crime or to what
extent tie fend had run wild. Later
reports gave the facts that Owen Hud-
son, supposedly, who lived alone with
brother, had apparently gone insane
with mania to kill, had first killed
his brother after desperate struggle,
then walked to the home of a neigh
Dor Ira Staten, shooting him killing
him instadtly, and severely wounding
Mrs. Staten, then going to the Glen
Pugh home about 1890 at night and
calling Mr.. Pugh out inflicted the shot
from the effect of which Mr.. Pugh died
the next day. The criminal than went
into hiding. Every town in the dis.
trict has sent armed posses but have
failed to locate him. He is supposed to
be in the Dry Coulee, and this is wild
lonesome place with rocks and caves,
makes it an ideal hiding place. The
heavy fog of the past week has also
hindered the searchers.
The skeleton of an unknown man was
found by Deputy Sheriff Porter in thd
Dry Coulee, while in serch of Owen
Hudson, fugitive slayer. The skeleton
was buried near where it was found
under direction Of Coroner jenkins,
and the 5000 and gold watch found on
it were kent for Identification
