Antonio Bruno, the supposed murderer of Guisoppb Puerio, has' been  captured, given a preliminary hearing  and taken back to Nelson to stand  trial for his crime,  Bruno was brought to Moyie City  last Monday by Constables J. Wilson  of Kuskonook and Fred'Wilbur of  Nelson. He wag captured tho previous Thursday by Wilson at Kuskonook upon information from Sergeant  Clopp and Constable Angers, of the  mounted police stationed , here,  who had traced him ��� to-' Goat  Riyer ��� landing. Here Bruno had  taken the steamboat Hercules, which  had left about 30 minutes before their  arrival., However,, the steamer Nelson  was still at the landing, so they sent  messages to the constables at Kuskonook and Nelson, giving his description and orders for his arrest.  When the Nelson arrived at Kuskonook, the Hercules was still there.  Wilfaon- received his orders and  promptly located his man and put  him under arrest, and then   took  him  o  on to Nelson, where he was taken' before Gold Commissioner , Dennis "and  remanded for eight days. Wilson and  Wilbur then .brought the prisoner  here as before stated, and turned him  oyer to the-proper authorities.  ' Tuesday morning Sergeant Clopp'  started with - (he . prisoner for ���'"Fort  Sfeoie, but was met at Cranbrook by  Ji F. Armstrong, the gold commissioner, accompanied, by Constable  Barnes, who had the prisoner returned  to tliis place for trial.    '  Wednesday afternoon a jury was  impaneled and taken to the scene of  the tragedy to exhume and view the  remains, and was then brought back  to tho East Kootenay hotel, where che.  preliminary trial was held in the evening.  The ��� prisoner,   and   the   murdered  man's   clothing were    brought    into  court.    The clothing was identified as  that belonging to   tho  man  who was  murdered,   and  Antonio  Bruno was'  identified as being the last man 'seen  with Puerio alive.    When Bruno  was  searched at Kuskonook, he  had  over  $300 in certificates ''of  deposit and   a  .time cheque for a  small amount, all  bearing   the   signature   of   Guiseppe  Puerio.    Fifty five dollars in bills  was  also found secreted in an ��� old  necktie  which       was'    sewed    around    .his  leg   below   the   knee.    He  also   had  clothing in his ''turkey" belonging   to  Puerio.  The testimony given by the witnesses is substantially that Puerio and  Bruno came to Armstrong's camp, six  miles west of here, August 2nd and  went to work. On Saturday, August  Gtb, tlie paymaster   came  along pay-  HARDWARE,  GROCERIES,  PRODITCEa  if ALL  KTXPS  OF  ��� DONE ���  TIN ROOFING A SPECIALTY.  tt  3'  CLOTHING,  Gents' Furnishings,  BOOTS and SHOES.  -PBOPIUETORS   OF���  iin^pi?  ���STRICTLY FIRST CLASS IN ALL, DEPARTMENTS.

Wednesday more'evidonee was heard  and Bruno was put  on   the stand   to  testify  in  hie own  behalf.    He said  that he   and   Puerio   came   from the  same town in Italy, and that he  loved  him as a brother.    Sunday they  started west to'the C.'P. R. camp, 20 miles  distant to ?et their  cheques  rectified.  When ihrv,* had come a lev/ miles they  met two j,';<?n, ono a friend of   Puerio.  After   discussing   the    matter    they  agreed tb-t Puerio and   the two  men  would   gc   on   and   Bruno   go   back  to the oai-jp  and await   their  return.  Tuesday, another Italian, who is  supposed to  have  met   Puerio   and  his  companions   came   along   and     told  Bruno th-.t Puerio and   the two   men  had decided to go to the  Robson-Peh-  ticton road by way of Fort Steele and  Jennings and  sent  word   to   him   to  take Puerio's effects and  join them at  Nelson.    This he was doing when   arrested at Kuskonook, as before  stated.  Ho claims the bank receipts and time  cheque were among Puetio's effects,  Judge Armstrong' remanded , him  and committed him for trial at Nelson.  Antonio Bruno is about 22 years  old, and is not at alia desperate looking man. He is at- all times perfectly  'cool and composed, and ' frequently  laughs when talking. His story was  told in a bold, straightforward manner,  and made a strong impression on  many of uhis hearers that he was' innocent. .  Guiseppe Puerio was about 52 years  old. It, was noticed that he never removed his vest when working ' and -it  became the opinion of his fellow workmen that ne^was carrying a large  'amount of. money, ��� Whoever committed the crime undoubtedly expected toiind money instead of bank  receipts aud time cheques.

All these  things wero  and ragged and ready to fall to pieces, but  they proved beyond fa doubt that tho worn-:  nn was ii whito woman.    Wo argued that  they further proved  that sho had   reached  island from some wreck.  If the lon'ell-  of hor situation and tho hardships.to  which sho had been exposed had not affected her mind, sho would haw   .ppetired before ua as soon its we had landed.    We bo-'  t<uii otir  search for  Lor  by e.-dllng aloud,  telling who wo wore  and  asking   her  to  come forward, but there wus no .espouse.  V.'o then FopniaUd a dl-iance of a few feet  r.ud swept across  tho  island.    We found  many  places  where  sho  had   broken  off  branched anil gathered wild, fruit, and-on  tho other I each wo found her tracks in tho  f.-uid, but nothing  could  bo   scon of  tho  woman herself.  As our stay at  thp island would   bo for  three  or  four   days, tho captain   ordered  that bedding and provisions be  placed In  the abandoned but for use of the woman,  and that wo.should mako no further hunt  for her.    A  letter was written find placed  with the things, giving Iier   tho  name of  the ship and saying we were   friends, and  then wo went about  our own work.    At  night wo all went on board ship, and next  I 'morning it was ascertained tbat tho .woin-  1 an had spent the night In   her  hut.    Sho  : had made a bod of  tho blankets and eaten  !'of tlie -provisions, but sho had torn tho lofc-  I tor into flvo pieces and that probably vvith-  i out  reading   it.    Wo wero  sathifled, lunv-  1 ever,'tis  sho  must  reason   that wo meant  i her no harm, and wo hoped to get sight of  her by the timo wo-were ready to  depart.  Wu heard  nothing of   her  on   the  second  day, nor the  next," but she   occupied   Iter  hut .'again .and  fito  heartily of  tho provisions.  Wo left other letters for her, but she  tore each up.     On  ;tho fourth  day, as wo  had   quite  finished; it was  run iho.woman   down  fired niuski  us to hasten' down  clear cf the trees wo easily  what, had happened., The wild woman'had  flanked us and readied the bench und put  oft" in one of our whnleboats. Sho'was already ht.lf a milo away, using an oar for a  paddle, and as soon as she saw us in pursuit she, redoubled her exertions." A boat  was manned and sent oil ,ln pursuit, nnd  h curious eh.-.so it was. Wo easily overhauled the woman, but as wo did so sho  overboard nnd swam away, nnd by  and dodging sho evaded us for a  quavtei of an hour. What may bo sot  down us ti singular circumstance was that  tho waters about the islnnd simply swarmed with sharks,'and at times there wero a  dozen about hor and yet none of- tho monsters seemed inclined to do her,harm.  Nobody could' make out just what sort  of u woman-' It wus until one of the men  finally caught her by tho hair and pulled  her into the boat. Sho fought him with  savage, ferocity, biting ono of his Angers  to tho bone, and wo had to tie her hand  and foot to keep her. Sho appeared to bo  a woman of nbout.-JO, and though her face  was roughened and browned by oxposuro'  we felt sure that she was English or  American. She lintl made her a pea .jacket  from a piece of still cloth, using n thorn  for a needle and grass for thread, but had  been without shoes until her feet wero In  bad condition. During tho chase she had  not uttered a^vork, but when hauled into  tho boat sho cried out in good Knglish, "I  will .fight for my lifo���I will never go  oway'l" Wo took her aboard the ship, and  { the captain talked to her in n gentle way  j and 'tried to .satisfy her that (swo wero  '"friends. When she grew quiet, he cast oil  her bonds, but as soon as sho���was free sho  attacked him ��0 fiercely that ho had to call  for help.   'Siio was then lockod in n stateroom, her things in the hut sent for, and  we sailed away on our cruise. -  There was  not an hour during the next two weeks In  which tho captain did not, wish ho had left  tho woman on her island.     For throe days  she refused food nnd water.    When compelled' by hungernnd   thirst, she  partook  sparingly and, wns   sulky and  obstinate.  Nov'and thon her moods were savage,'and'  sometimes nt night she would scream out  like a- wild boast.    Acs wu did  not intend  to nwiko  port for several   months tho idea  was -to transfer .her to somo other craft.  V."o spoko half a dozen in   succession, but  not one of them would recelvo her.    From  one, bowovor, where  the captain   had his  wife  aboard, an outfit was  procured, nr.d  no, sooner was it handed over to tho woman than a great change took place ln her.  Sho  quieted   down, dressed  herself   from  head   to  heel   and   spent   a whulo day,in  brushing  and   combing   her   hair.    Ono  morning  sire  electrified   the  steward   by  saying   .she  would   eat.  breakfast., In   tho  cabin, and when   she walked out  nobody  could credit   the change.    She wus now a  fairly good looking w.oiuan, mild oyed'ftnd  ehy, and her voice was low nnd gentlo.  As  she entered tho cabin sho looked about her  in  a wondering (way and   queried of  tho  capt ti in:  - "Sir, will you plonso toll nio how 1 came  aboard of this ship and vvbtit has become  cf my own wardrobe?"  When It wns  explained  to her that  sho  had been   taken from   Lighthouso  island,  whoTc sho hnd   been  living for  months or  years, bur astonishment was beyond utterance.    Sho hnd woko up thnt morning to  find herself   In a strange berth.    Sho had  no  recollection of   the   islnnd or her capture..    She had found tho musty garments  we brought from the hnt, und  bad nn indistinct recollect ion   that   they   had   once  been worn   by her, but tho  past hnd gone  from hor memory ns if   thero hnd   becii no  past.     Thero have been other cases like lt,  and they havo  been written of   nt length,  and   so thero Is  nothing   singular in'thnt  part of my story.    As u matter of fact the  woman  could  not  tell her own  noino���  could not tell whether sho was married or  single, where sho  hailed from or how sho  camo,to be on tho   island.    She dated  lifo  from the hour sho woko up nnd hoard tho  steward knocking on her door.'   Tho "captain first  set to.work to   judgo  how long  she hail been on tho  island and finally sot  the time tis a year and a half.    In a scrap-  book lie hail pasted'up numerous accounts  of wrecks arid disasters, nnd among them  was, the loss  of   the "Knglish   bark*Ford-  litim, which had   been   lost with all hands  i on a voyage from tho Cape to Indln.    She  j had put In nt tho Mauritius to repair .ilmn-  ��� ages, and, soon after leaving n   llerco  gnlo  | had swept   the seas  for  several   days.     It  ! wns ti��ken for granted that sho.hnd. been  1 lost   In  this gnlo.    It was figured  by the  !,.captain that the Fordham had run off  bo-  Iforo   tho galo  to the westward, nnd   that  j sho wns w-ithln affew miles of Lighthouse  | Island when she wont.down.   The account  ' said there were six passengers aboard,1and  j'this.'womnn must have been one of them,  > ond sho must have  boon driven  to the Is-  i'lnn'd while clinging .to a piece of wreckage.  ! Sho'fcould  givpf, no light on  tho ninrter.  f Sho simply remembered  nothing.    It was  I a  pitiful   case  nnd  excited   every  man's  sympathy,   a till' none  of   us,  so far  ns  1  kno-.v,fever knew the ending of It., A week ,  tifter she camo'to herself .we sent her to |-LIQUORS,  England, on   board a  Btfiunof, and  ns sho  was penniless every man of  our crew  tribnted   ton  purse  amounting   to  ond she   left us.with   n   handshake  j.

According thereto, there are thrco kinds  ' af Knglish cockad.* in uso tit the moment  i ���the royal, the military and tho naval.  ! There is no such thing as a "civil scrvico  ! cockado." The royal cockade can bo easily  j recognized., It is quite circular. It is in  I shape much like a double dahlia, and is,  ] worn so that half of it Is seen above tho  I top of the hat. It Is also larger than other  I oockadi-s and projects outward very much  j more. The military cockade is tho ono  1 ~\ r~\~[ T ��1-OGi i most usually seen. It consists of a small  - 1 circular projection, from the top of which  o Issues a fan shaped ornament.    It Is worn  ���i so that tbe fan   shaped ornament projects  ! above the top of the hat.    Tho third shapo  I ���tho naval   cockade���bus  no  fan, and is  ! oval in shapo.    It is worn   afc tho side, go  that no part of It projects above the top of  tho hat.

But you soon recover yonrsolf,  and, stooping down, you scoop up th*  pioccs with your two hands nnd offer thora  to your friend. You might just sniilo  gently. It rather improves the Cavor of  tho joko.  You oro ablo at this point to sample your  friend's languago and to pot him to rIvb  au exhibition of all his angullo qualities:  Very likely ho will take the opportunity of  telling you what ills truo opinion of yoy  bus been all ulong.

During  tho very driest soasons, whon tho strcom ii  apparently quite dry, thero is (it-ill a groat  body of water running ln the sand. Like  a vast spongo tho sand holds the water,  yet, it flows continually, Just as if it were  in plain sight, but moro slowly, of course.
