Reduced Rates at Kingston At Kingston, Ont., one report stated tho city took over lhe gas plant In 1004 when the rales were *$2 per thousand for Illumination and §2 for fuel Since that time the rate had been reduced to a flat rate of $1 and 90 cenls to lai'ge .consumers. Iu 1005 the output was 26,000,000 feet; this has been increased to 90,000,000 feeL A substantial not profit was made. In 1911, said tho report. Success Throughout Ontario Municipal ownership of tho gas plant had proved a decided success at Brockville, suid a report from that' city which acquired its plant 11 years ago at a cost of $00,000. In addition ?7f.,ooo hurl been spent on improvements and tho output had been so Increased that the gas was being produced at a pro fit and sold at $1 per thousand for all purposes. Under private ownership the chargo was $2 per thousand. "Muni- olpal ownership of gas plants has proved eminently successful through out Ontario," said the report. Would Employ Expert Aid. Gleazer expressed tho opinion that, In view of the reports from the Ontario cities, the gas plant was one of the best public utilities the city could acquire! The plant, he said, was a paying proposition and was not In debt. He thought the people should be given a chance In vote on the proposition after a report of an expert had been secured. If the city had no electric plant the people would jump at the chance to take over the plant, said the mayor. Aid. Gleazer thought that lhe possession of the electric light plant was no reason why the city should not own o gas plant. Mr. Roberts stated that the mains, the first of which was laid 11 year ago, were hi good condition. Time Inopportune, They Say Aid. Houston and Aid. Walley said that they did not think the city at present was in a position to spend the money required by the gas plant proposition. Tho city had gone heavily financially into the electric light plant said Aid. Houston, and mnny people believed that gas might prove a competitor. Aid. Austin did not see that the city had any particular use for tbo plant except for fuel purposes. Aid. Cunliffe was in favor of securing an expert opinion, seconding a motion to that effect by Aid. Gleazer. He did not wish, however, to be taken as endorsing lhe proposed purchase, ho said,, but believed that an expert should be secured. That the owners of the gas plant wero determined to sell as they were retiring from business, was a statement made by Mr. Roberta The only remaining bondholders wished to retire from the business and it had been decided to glvo tho city the first opportunity. On motion of Aid. Houston, seconded by Aid. Keefe, at the suggestion of the mayor, the discussion of tho matter was postponed for 30 days, Pass Money Bylaws Bylaws to raise ?20,000 for lho new fire hall, $7,500 for sewer extensions, and $7,500 for waterworks and a bylaw to convey a portion of Houston park to tho hospital In exchange for tho present site, were introduced by Aid. Gleazer, All the debentures will run 20 years at '5 per cent and will bear tho duto of July 1, 1912. Interest and sinking fund annually on tho flro hall debentures will be $1,707.22; on tho water and sewer debentures the Interest und sinking fund annually will be $640.20 each. All tho bylaws passed the third reading and will he voted on by the people on Juno 20. The olty clerk will bo returning officer. "Thero is a good demand for first lass debentures," said tbo city clerk who mentioned that the city received 100Vj per cent for the last issue, the tramway bonds. Must Connect With Sewers Unless 24 persons to whose property sewers have been laid but who have I not connected havo tho necessary sanf-| lury connections mtidu williln six days legal action will be taken to enforce compliance with the city bylaw. The road tux bylaw antl amendments to the Health act were finally passed and adopted. The city engineer estimated (be cost of laying the proposed sewer on the end of East Baker street at $250. He recommended the payment uf $380 to E. K. Strachan for sewer pipe. The Strachan account was ordered to be pnld and it was decided to install thi sewer. On a recommendation or the firo, water and light committee it was decided to Increase lhe sleeping accom modatlon for the employees at the power plant, and to sell some machinery used during construction but which is no longer required.

Announcement of this discovery, which is considered one of the most remarkable ever made in mining opcr ations in the west, was made at the Hume last night by W. S. Hawley, manager of the property; G. B. Harrington, a Spokane broker who represents many stockholders in tho company, und E. J. Boxer of Spokane, ono of the stockholders. Prehistoric Jawbone Found. Already the cave has been surveyed to u depth of 250 feet and no bottom lias yet been reached, It \s said, but to this depth the vein continued. It is believed that lhe cave, from lho roofs of which hang hundreds of stalactlti and in onc part of which a member of the parly picked up what appeared to be the fossilized jawbone ot some prehistoric animal, is a fissure caused by the water wearing away thu lime formation from the vein "This fissure, opening on the contact inclining along the footwall, ls very valuable to the company fur the reasons that it will serve to drain the entire mine and thus eliminate one of the* heaviest expenses in the develop ment and operation of the property, nnd it will serve as an inexpensive way in which to explore the property to great depth," said Mr. Hawley, Mr Harrington remarking that by this discovery the vein had been opened up and the property developed in a few hours iu a manner which by means of a shaft sunk in the usual way would have occupied months and cost a large sum of money. To Extend South Drift. The cave is sufficiently large, as far as explored, lo permit the entry of a man and In places It widens out Into large chambers. Alt the work that will be necessary, it is safd, to complete this natural Inclined shaft will be to Widen some of the narrow places. In addition to tins work it is Intended, said Mr. Hawley, to proceed once with the extension of the south drift of the mine lu connect with the cave and tap the Silver Hoard vein on the 350-fool level, where u large body of ore has been located. Sack High-Grade Ore. At preseni two men are getting out from 25 to 40 sacks of high-grade on a day and ;i fmir-hur.se team will he gin hauling to Ainsworth landing in a few days.

JUNE 5 I JCht^tlpjajE^Dfl^ Published at Nelson Every Morning Except Sunday, by Tha Nawi Publishing Company, Limit-id W. G. FOSTER, Editor and Manager. WEDNESDAY, JUNE 5 MR. CHAMP CLARK AND ANNEXATION Purlng the last year or so the name of Mr. Champ Clark, now candidate for the Democratic nomination for the presidency of the United States, has been prominently before the people of Canada as well as of the United States. During the Dominion election campaign of last year and also in the public discussion on reciprocity which preceded it his name was often heard as a result of his now famous remark In the American house of representatives, when reciprocity was before that body, that he hoped to see the day when the Stars and Stripes would float over all the territory from the Gulf of Mexico to the north pole, that Is over Canada. Various attempts to belittle the significance of Mr. Clark's remarks were made by Canadian supporters of reciprocity. It was said that Mr. Clark was only joking when he made this remark, that he was no one anyhow, and It was asked what difference did It make anyhow what Mr. Clark did or did not say. Previous to the Intrusion of his name into Canadian political discussion little was known of Mr. Clark on this side of the line. Since the question of reciprocity was settled by the people of Canada so far as they were concerned by their votes on September 21 last, the name of Chomp Clark has, however, continued to occupy public ottentlon in this country by reason* of his usplratlon to the highest honor in the gift of the American people, that of president of the republic. In view of this and as showing that the views of Mr Clark as expressed at the time of the reciprocity discussion were not chance remarks, the following from the current Issue of Collier's may be of some Interest; The duty of opposing so genial and popular a figure as Hon. Beauchamp Clark in his desire to be president is an ungrateful one. It Is, however, one which, desiring both parties to put their most suitable man forward, we cannot escape. Clark's "break" about reciprocity was not an accident, It was characteristic. As far back as 1893 he said: "There are two pieces of ground on the North American continent that I want to see annexed to the United States. 12 Acres (First Class Fruit Land Of this 12 ocres, 10 acres are ' thoroughly cleared and planted with good variety of 700 fruit trees, mostly apple, and the greater, number of them in bearing. There are also a large number of berry plants, which are in very healthy condition, and give a considerable yield. Transportation facilities consist of a lake steamer four times a day, railroad with station near the property, and a good wagon road. The price of $6,000 is very reasonable, ond owner will arrange to sell on very good terms. The property compares very favorably wllh other similar local orchards, on which a valuation is placed of ?1,000 per acre. Note—This place is Idelilly situated on the west arm of the main lake, and in close proximity to the new Balfour tourist hotel, which has just been erected at a cost of a quarter of a million dollars, for the purpose of encouraging the tourist traffic In this direction, which Is warranted by the beautiful mountain and lake scenery, and particularly congenial climate of this part of southern British Columbia. There is a school quite nenr, also postofflce and stores, and every facility for -aomfortable existence, and there Is a good class of settlers all around. Prult grows to perfection, as can be easily ascertained by the products of this particular property, and also ;-the adjoining ranches. Property of this description will possibly be worth double Its present price within four or five years on account of the undisputed demand for developed ranches of this kind, and also on account of the very pleasant situation. NcQnairie & Robertson R«al Estate and Insurance Agts,, Kootenay Fruit Lands and Investments a Specialty. NELSON, B.C. One Is Cuba and the other Is every foot of British North American possessions, no matter how far north they extend." Collier's, lt may be remembered, was Itself strongly ln favor of reciprocity and would not have dared to have brought forward Mr. Clark's.words of 18 years previously at the time that reciprocity was before the people of Canada, lest by so doing It should have endangered Its passage. Now, however, that It wishes to Injure Mr. Clark politically, lt does not hesitate to show that the views expressed by him lust year In reference to the nn- nexutlon of Canada by the United States were not by any means the chance remarks that It was represented by some on this side of the Une they were, but that on the occasion in question he was giving expression to views which he had held for a score of years and which were with him a matter of policy. That Mr. Clark is a man of importance and standing In his country is shown by the fact that he is at present speaker of the house of representatives as well as being an aspirant for the presidency. It Is perhaps true that It made little real difference what views Mr Clark held personally on the question of reciprocity or annexation, but at the same time thoy were those of a leading American public man and as such worthy of some consideration. But the peculiar thing about the whole matter is that Mr. Clark's "break" Is now being used against himself, although perhaps much less effectively than it was used against the ratification of the reciprocity agreement by this country in the campaign of last year.

The trial at Vlterbo, commenced a year ago, is ;iu effort of the Italian government to purge Itself of Its Infamous criminals, although the specific charge ls the murder of the Ouocolos, man and wife. On ■June 5, 1906. Cuoeolo, essentially a well- to-do citizens of Naples, who had amassed a sautr fortune as a dealer In antiquities, was killed at Torre del Groin Nearly two score slashes on the front part nf his body were typical of Cantor- fist -blood lust. Detectives declared Unit the man had been attacked and killed .■Isi-wh'-rc and carried to the seashore, where Ids body was found the following day. On that same night six years ago lhe wlfo of Cuocolo bad just removed her clothing preparatory to retiring, when two men entered "the bedroom. Presumably they had secured access to ilio apartments with a key found In the pockets of Cuoeolo, then lying dead mi the Terre del Greco shore. In any event, the keys customarily carried by Cuocolo were missing from ihis pockets When his body was found. Tho fated woman, then suddenly attacked, screamed once. Then a pillow over her mouth stifled her vain cries for help, and the deadly Camor- rlst knlfe—perhpns the same as had killed her husband—cut and slashed her. Their work of butchery over, the uh- sasslns safely made their escape. Then came the revelation that Cuocolo and his wife had long been members of the Camorra, hut that, for lhe sake or greater spoils, they had -betrayed BOme of their comrades. ' A foolhardy man was Cuocolo. staking IiIb life and that of (his beautiful wife, "La Bell,, Sorren- tlne." against a handful of golden llras that ho did not need, since the "legitimate" profits of his business as a Oomorrlst spy paid hlm -handsomely, Vengeance speedily overtook hlm, its it has a wav of doing with ail who Incur the enmltv of the powerful Camorra.

There are streets in Paris where the houses arc numbered 12 bis 112 his, etc., In lieu of 13 or 113. Mnny hotels In this country nnd others will Hot have any rooms numbered 13. The Italians never use the number 13 n in;,king UP their lotteries, and in one if their card games the thirteenth card seal's the figure of death. In New York the Thirteen Club was ,rganlzed In 1884 for the purpose of killing this superstition. The number ,r mc in ber r always consist of some multiple ol" 13; they dine together on the 18th of tlit-'niotfith, 13 fit the table. The dues are 13 cents a month, so on. In England It used to be thought that Americans were peculiarly superstitious about the number thirteen, and a London newspaper <tt 1776 wrote; "Thirteen is ;i number peculiarly belonging lo the rebels. A parly of naval prisoners lately returned from Jersey say that the rations among the rebels are 13 clams ft day. Mr, Washington has 13 toes on his feet, the extra ones having grown since tho Declaration of Independence), anil the same number of teeth In each jaw; Hint the sachem Schuyler has a topknot of 13 stiff hairs which erect themselves on the crown of his head when ho grows mnd. ll takes 13 congress paper dollars to equal one penny ster- 1'ng, und Tolly Wayne was Just 13 hours In subduing Stony Point and as many seconds in leaving it.

Her majesty w ' at Camp Satory, This is n commodious, low spreading bungalow, 37 feet wide by 44 feet deep, having six rooms on one floor and i large pinzza. A house of this description makes .juite an Ideal home. The ladles like it because It la all on one floor and -■asy to cure for; this plan, however, has two chambers on the second floor.

The two second story jhambers are full in height, well i-ghted with gable windows, and each hns a large clothes closet. Second floor is lighted with dormer windows, front and rear.

Thus, like Raleigh, with his cloak, he improvised a footway along the muddy soil, and the queen was able to advance without wetting her shoes. Thpre were not enough hoards to complete, the wny to the stand, so as tile Queen walked soldiers lifted tho boards behind her nnd ran and placed them In a row, The 'lueon was greatly pleased and when Bhe reached the end of tlie promenade turned with a grateful gesture to the man who placed the last board nnd held out her hand, The soldier, removing his cap, bent over the queen's luind and gallantly kissed It.

RECIPROCITY 18 STILL ISSUE Democrats and Republicans Split Over Repeal of Act—To Block Tariff Plans, WASHINGTON, June •».—TheDemo- ratlc leaders of the house have decided to join Issue with the Rcpubli cans of the senate over the proposal of the repeal'of the Canadian reclpro' city act. That proposal as it came from the senate In the form of un amend ment to the Underwood bill for the revision of the steel and Iron schedule also provided for a world wide duty or ?i! a ton on wood pulp. Neither of these propositions appeal to Chairman Underwood and his Democratic col leagues on lhe ways and means committee. At an executive session of that committee yesterday morning the Democruts voted to accept the senate's minor amendment to this bill changing the rates on ferro-sllicon und pig Iron, but planted themselves firmly against the reciprocity of the senate. Chairman Underwood was Instructed when he calls the steel bill up In the house to move to disagree to the senate reciprocity amendment and send the bill buck to the senate. The plan Is to give the senate a chance to withdraw the reciprocity amendment, There is little prospect of this happen ing, since it Is the plan of the senate to attach the reciprocity amendment to. each of the other tariff bills sent forward by the house Democrats. The plan of the senate leaders was to block the Democratic plans with the reciprocity amendment by bring ing nbout a deadlock in the conference. The house Democratic members intend to sidestep a coiuerence by sending the bill hack and giving the senate Re publicans a chance to lake hack their reciprocity amendment or else ask for a conference. The action taken yes terdny means that reciprocity ls the rock upon which the tariff plans the Democrats will he wrecked and lhat unless their side yields, President Taft will not be put to the necessity of having to veto any of the tariff bills. The house ways and means committee nt Its meeting yesterday also ordered the Underwood cotton bill re- jortcd. This the last of the series of Democratic measures and Is exactly like the bill for the reduction of the duties on manufactures of cotton passed by the Democrats during the extraordinary session and vetoed hy President Taft August 22, 1911. Chairman Underwood and his colleagues lake the position that the report of the tariff board on cotton, transmitted by the president on March 2G last, sustains their former cotton bill in its entirety and that there is nothing in that report justifying alterations of the rates then submitted. The executive says Chairman Underwood "is now in harmony with the majority of lhe members of the house 011 the general policy ' t"o be adopted in spile of the president's veto of last summer and the only question remaining: Is" the :extent to which the duetion in cotton duties si 1011 hi be carried. The tariff board report on wool wns not in reality a tariff document. This comment is also applicable to the report on cotton. Nowhere In the report is there any recommendation its to the proper course to bo pursued In adjusting the tariff."

NANKING, June 4.—Three hundred young girls were kidnapped some days ago by disbanded soldiers and were being taken away on board a river steamboat to be sold into slavery when officers Intervened and with the old of a park of field artillery and on the promise to pay compensation, the girls were rescued. The disbanded soldier is the most difficult person with which the mill tary authorities of China have to deal at present. Recruited from the riffraff of the country, these soldiers know no discipline but the right of might and nothing terrorizes them into a semblance of submission but the ex ecutioner's sword. They defy officers, threaten revolt upon the slightest pretext and so over awe the authorities that they obtain concessions a hundredfold more sub' stantial than any accorded to the reg' ular soldiers. Thousands of them in various places have declined to be disbanded, some cities they have fought to retain their hold over the people from Whom they have exacted illegitimate toll, and at Foo Chow and Canton held the countryside In terror while they wrestled with the legitimate forces fn supremacy. In other pluccB, where they havo been forced to disbund they have loot ed, murdered and caused a reign c terror, but the line of the business o'f several hundred of the Nanking^arrl son in developing a slave trade Is new. The men were being sent back to their province and when the steamboat Chiuyen wus ready to leave It was found that about 300 children, nearly all girls, had been stowed away to be sold ns slaves. The children were well cared for and went in no sense ill treated by lite soldiers, who rather pelted them, but tney nlid nol relish the forced soparu lion from their parents and homes. The officers in charge of the troops used every method known to them lo persuade the soldiers to put the chl ilren ashore. Mutiny Threatens. The soldiers were obdurale. They declared that us soldiers who had won the country from the Manchus they were entitled to some reward, and as money was not available In abundance they were prepared to lake lhe next Lost thing. They could see 110 reason why they should give up the children, and what commenced as a gentle argument iiulckly developed Inlo a threatening mutiny and all foreigners on board the steamboat were ordered ashore. With the engineers and lhe navigator gone the soldiers could do nothing to move the boat, though they went to the engine room and shifted ivery lever and wheel whicli seemrd to have ,any connection with the motive ...power,..sometimes wiLh-immediately surprising results. The Euro- peans watched the performance from lhe shore, where they had taken ret** , and expected to hear an explosion see ti holocaust at any moment. Officers telephoned for artillery and with a clatter one came sweeping to tlie river brink. The guns were trained on the boat and the soldiers wero warned Hint if they did not release the children within a given time the ship" would be fired upon. The men only capitulated, however, when the commander In chief, Huang Hun, agreed to pay from ?8 to J10 for each child, and the children were then seal ashore, bul the aspect of the soldiers was threatening. Ono, more than the rest, walked ashore and threatened the officer with reprisals. His ond was not far off. Ho was seized, compelled to stand upon the wharf and a squad of infantry fired lead into him until he was dead. Upon him were found three revolvers. His death frightened the others and when 11 strong guard had been placed over the remainder of the band the Europeans went aboard and the iteamer left. Much of tlie terror that no obtains throughout the length and breadth of he country is due to the brigands ind lhe pirates who joined the army nnd left it eventually equipped with modern rifles and much ammunition. It will be years before" it will be known where the tremendous numbers of ifles taken from the arsenals have gone, annl before the armed robbers nils created by the war can be su- presscd, PRESIDENT TAFT SHOWS STRENGTH IN OHIO (By Dally News Leased Wire.)

Charles Dempster, mining operator, returned a few days since from u very successful trip, which ran over a period of three mouths and which was spent in New Vork, Boston and Phlla- ik-lpn 11, says the Itosslunil Miner. Mr. Dempster hus made the necessary financial arrangements for opening up the Fife mines on a large scale. The elopment so far done reveals lhat they are valuable, and the work is now *nig carried on in un able and sys- malic manner under the( management of Mr Dempster and bis consuming engineer. Mr. Dempster expects to meet several millionaires who 111 v.sit Rossland during the next three months for the purpose of looking over the camp's mining resources with n view to investment. He has submitted a Well-known South Belt property to a group of Cleveland capitalists and their engineer Is to be here within the next month for the purpose of making an examination. "I hud the honor," snid Mr. Dempster; "to i-e'invilod; u'few W'L'oks slllCe, to Thomas Edison's laboratory at orange, N. J., to get what details'were available In regard to his new process for the extraction of metal values from low-grade tires. It Is Mr. Edison's belief lhat through the operations of h'.s system of extraction, the term low- gl'ade ores will become obsolete. Mr. Edison's chief chemist promises lo correspond with me nnd my associates directly, as soon ns they consider It expedient und advisable to make the Invention public. 1 fully realize what th's process would do for Rossland w.th its billions of tons of low-grade ore. It would result In a complete resuscitation of the camp and the population would be larger than even il was in the boom days; in short the fondest dreams of those who have liunl faith in lhe Golden City will, I believe, be realized by means of the wonderful process."

Is a disease thai usually attacks the young children, though older persons may be afflicted willi It. Its most common symptoms are a twitching of tho muscles of lho face and limbs. As tho disease progresses this twitching takes the form of spasms In which the jerking motion in.-.:' bo confined to the head or all the limbs may be affected. The patient is freiiuently unable tu hold anything in the hands or to walk steadily and in sevaro cases even the speech Is affected. The dls- erse is due to debility of the nerves and ls always cured by Dr. William*;' Pink Pills, which enrich the bljr.d, lone and si length en tne nerves ni'.l thus restore the sufferer to cn-m health. The following is a striking instance of what Dr, Williams* Pink Pills will do In this trouble. Mrs. Churl.*-? Phlpps, Pelee Island, Ont., says: "At the age of 14 my oldest daughter, Kdith became much run down, nnd the trouble developed into St. Vitus dance. First bar left arm became affected -then the left leg and entire left. side. She grew so bad that she actually could not hold anything in her hand and could only go about with a slid ing, jerking motion, Nolwllo.slanr'.'iit that we were giving her medicine, she seemed to be growing worse and fin ally her speech became affected. We became so much nlarmed about her Hint finally her father got a supply of Dr. Williams' Pink PIIIb and wo be gun giving her these. In the course of a few weeks sho was much better nnd before all the pills were gone she was again enjoying perfect health. This was In 1908 nnd as she pn* not had a symptom of the trouble since 1 feel justified In saying lhe cure Is permanent." Be sure you get the genuine pills which are sold by all medicine deal ers or may he had at 50 cents a box or six boxes for $2.50 from tha Or, Wiilinms' Medicine Co., Brockvillo Ont.

Black, "this is the method I have found most simple and effective." With that she slipped a small piece of butter into a bag and began rubbing it quickly over the bottom of a heated baka pan. A few seconds showed the grease even'ly distributed. Into this she slipped nicely prepared chicken, intimating that it would be done to a nicely in less than nn hour. Potatoes, bacon and liver, fish and chops were all cooked in a similar fashion After a short business report Mrs. Black resumed her demonstrations, pointing out thai ihe paper bags need not be restricted solely to baking meats, fish anil fowl, but could also be utilized in the cooking uf rolls and pastry. By the time the second demonstration had been completed the potatoes, fish and chops were ready for sampling, which part of the afternoon's program proved no little delight to the ladles present, und spoke well for the rapid adoption of the method of cooking with paper bags. Mrs. Black as well as several of the other members of the Institute have proved from their own experiments that far less food value Is lost, especially In the cooking of meats, when this method is used. Yet another feature, which to many busy housewives would be the most appreciable,' Is the doing away with the washing of endless pans and dishes. Mrs. Black's chicken was done in less than an hour, and looked so appetizing that Mrs. W. A. Thurman purchased It at the close of the meeting, and Mrs. B. J. Campbell pur- chasen a lemon pie, which was equally uf tempting.

WINNIPEG VANCOUVER the halfbreed on the charge of killing the officer. The section patrolled by the murdered officer is considerably upset as a result of tho crime and the feeling against lhe murderers runs high. Du- v.es wns most popular throughout the town. Prior to starting out on what proved to be his last case, he hail been around the town Joking and talking to the boys with whom he was a universal favorite. ■,- .lust at dusk a terrified Italian hurried Into the town, located Constable Davies and in wild language told him that two Indians and a halfbreed hud shot several times at him, at the same time pointing to bullet holes In his hat- coat sleeve and in a bundle of blankets he carried. There was no doubt but that he had been shut at and the constable after closely questioning hlm, elicited the Information that he was walking along the trail between Southesk and Brooks when he met three men, two Indians nnd a halfbreed. Tliey asked for the bundle of blankets he carried under his arm. He decided not lo part with them and they, in an effort lo secure them, fired several shots after rim. He took to his heels and then hurried lo Brooks to report the matter. When the officer had secured as good a description as he could from the man, he Immediately secured his horse and arms and set out on their i rail. Ho traced them to Southesk and at the C.P.R. station there learned from the agent that the men hatl passed there but' a short time ago and that they had turned off the track In u southerly direction, taking lhe main trail. Dead Body Found. The officer started after them and lhal is the last seen of him alive Ills dead body was found some time later on the trail two miles from this town. What took place when he caught up with the party Is' only a matter of I conjecture, but the bullet hole through I the officer's heart tells of tbe culmination, whatever happened.' ! Mis murderers then took his gun, ] cartridge belt and horse and continued | on their way suuthwest. The men j who found tho body of the policeman j after making sure that life was I tlnct, hurled on to Southesk. The | station agent, who but a short timo previous had given the policeman the Information lo lead him to his death, | Immediately sent word to Mounted j Police Corporal Johnston oE Bassano, i notifying him of the murder of his I brother officer. As soon as possible be hurried to the scene of the murder. Whether he was assisted or how he came upon and arrested the threo men who are now being held for the murder Is not as yet known, but hi1 succeeded in effecting their capture. They were taken to Bassano by the officer and will tills aflernoon be taken lo Calgary barracks, where they will stand trial for the officer's death. Wanted Whiskey. Davies was a young man, 25 years of age and was considered a most efficient man. His tragic death Is deeply regretted by all the Brooks people nd by the force. Later Information received is to the effect that the Indians who are suspected of the murder shot at another man just on the outskirts of Southesk. Whiskey seems to have been their object Just outside of Brooks a resident of tho town met them and one of them who had a horse offered to sell the animal for a ortaln amount of whiskey and $5. At Southesk they met a man on the outskirts of town and because he refused to give them whiskey they shot t him Tbe man who was shot at and who gaVe the alarm to the dead officer, is being held at Brooks for lho exam'nat'on of the trio. Tho latest Information lo hand seems lo leave some doubt as to the composition of the tr'n of alleged murderers, the first report said that they were two Indians nnd a halfbreed, the latest says lhat they were two Indians nnd' a squaw, and another report says that three lull bloods were arrested.
