Bent and White-Haired Man Is Taken to Nome for Arraignment. — Special Dispatch to The Call.

At Holy Cross Mission, April 13, 191, it is| charged, Philip Delderich shot Louis Borub, his neighbor, through the head. The old man, it is claimed, stole on his victim from behind. There was no provo- cation and the main witnesses against the | decrepit prisoner are his two sous. This is the substance of tne story. There is much behind these ailegations. Holy Cross Mission lies on There the stream widens, before spread- the Lower Yukon. ing to its delta, and the banks are more than two miles apart. It is a desolate spot. The dreary Arctic twilight and the ast expanse of white piain are said Lo be responsible for many grim tragedies. It is sald that they were the cause of old Philip Deiderich’'s awful deed. Deiderich and Borub lived near one an other. Both had cabins, one-room affal provisioned with oniy actual necessitles. At the coming of win- | ter, so goes the story, the men were firm : friends. They worked together in the preparation of their winter quarters, and often visited one another in the even- ing. Then the days began to shorten and the long twilight came. How the first quarrd]l sprang up is not knmown. It is said to have been a trivial affair. Deider- ich went back to his family and told them of the quarrel, but gave no detalls. Borub | returned to his cabin and brooded by him- self. The two men met and failed to speak. Each watched the other at such times, and each became the more suspi- cious at the other’s covert glance. Winter wore on to a darkened spring. It seemed as though the sun would never appear. The Deiderich family became alarmed at the alteration in tae old man. They feared that the hard winter and the lonely life were telling on his mind. One morning Deiderich left the cabin with his rifie over his arm. One of his sons saw him from a distance and hast- ened to follow him, joined by his brother, | whom he had called. It is said that the boys overtook their father too late. The old man had come upon Borub when the latter was alone. He had approached him silently from behind, rested his rifle and taken deliberate aim and shot his former friend through the head. Deiderich’s two sons were, according to Nome papers, being held at St. Michael during the early part of July as witnesses. Together with the aged prisoner they had been taken from Holy Cross Mission by the officers, who went after them down | the river. At the time the statements of the case were published in Nome Marshal Griggs was in_St. Michael on his way to the mission after the rest of Deiderich’s family, all of whom are, it is said, to be used as witnesses against him.

Constable Traces Two Miss- ing Maidens to San Francisco. e i Sl Special Dispatch to The Call. SAN JOSE, July 19.—What is belleved to be an organized business of enticing young girls from this city to enter dis- reputable houses in San Francisco has ecn discovered. Annie Matthews and Joste Castro, two young girls, left their homes a few days ago and a search made for them by Constable Haley located them in a place on Turk street, San Francisco, where they were engaged in selling beer. Through Detective Seymour of San Franeisco it was learned that more than twenty young girls from San Jose have in the past few weeks entered upon dis- reputable lives in San Francisco. These girls inform their parents they have good pesitions in homes or business houses, when in'reality they are inmates of brothels: and saloons. Some of these girls have been sent to San Francisco to attend school, and their parents do not know the lives they lead. The San Jose officer was informed by Detective Sey- mour that he had a list of the girls en- ticed from here and could return them to their parents when requested. Local of- ficers believe that a procuress must be plying her vocation. - An attempt will be made to rescue the girls.

PORTLAND, Or., July 19.—At the top of Mount Hood to-day the Mazamas, an or- ganization -of mountain-climbers, adopted the following resolutions, introduced by L. L. Hawkins, in memory of Professor Joseph Le Conte: Professor Joseph Le Conte, at home in the mountains, at home with the Mazamas, at home with the students, at home with the grandest scientists of the world, at home with his Creator. died in Yosemite Valley on the 6th inst. He was to have joined the Sierra Club In its first annual outing in the high Serras. It is fitting that we, here on the top of Mount Hood, at this our eighth annual out- ing, should express our deep sorrow at our loss and our high appreciation of his-wisdom, goodness and worth. Thirty-one years ago, on August 12, he and John Muir were feasting -thelr eyes on ‘the Mount Lyle group. I chiseled his name on the top of Mount Dana, 2002 feet higher than we now stand. - For thirteen days his name has been inscribed on a higher point—one whiter than the snow under our feet. Be it Resolved, That, in the death of Joseph Le Conte, the Mazamas have lost one of their most ‘loved, respected and renowned honorary members. 'Be it further Resolved, at our secretary, when he reaches a milder and less vigorous atmosphere, spread these brief resolutions of sorrow and respect on our minute book, and transmit more suitable resolutions of condolence to the be- reaved family of the deceased. Automobiles Reach Yosemite. YOSEMITE, July 19.—The two automo- biles that left San Francisco on the 1ith for the Yosemite Valley by way of Stock- ton arrived here last night, after prac- tically demonstrating the inability of an automobile being operated on a stage road. The party consisted of Mr. Aitken and wife and Mr. Baird and wife. The chief trouble they had to contend with was the refusal of the Big Oak Flat Line to carry gasoline in for them. At Chinese Station one of the stage drivers maliclously mis- directed them, sending them over the old condemned bridge to Moffitt. Coming up Priest's Hill they were obliged to get out and push the automobile. il Weds at Mother’s Deathbed.

Unknown to the college authoritiee, their manager hdad taken possession of one of the school’'s ball grounds. After a parade around town in bloomers, followed by a squad of small boys, the Amazons marched upon the college property. In the meantime President R. E.

On lighting his lamp he was horrifled to find that he had shot his friend and classmate, Sidney Bristol of Battle Creek, Mich., who came here yesterday as a ca S , and was invited by Cressy to spend the night with him. Bristol lived only long enough to gasp, “You have shot your friend.” It is belleved that Bristol, while In a nightmare, took hold of Cressy. Cressy said that he ,thought he was being at- tacked by a burglar, and fired as soon as he was free. The voung men were each about 24 vears of age.

SEATTLE, July 19.—A movement to re- cover the royalty paid by the Klondikers on gold mined in 1898 is on foot. A num- ber of Dawson lawyers have undertaken the prosecution of the case and all of the most _interested mine owners of that period have subscribed their names as plaintiffs. As the royalty tax collected by the Crown authorities of the Klondike country in 1898 amounted to hundreds of thousards of dollars, the case is one of considerable magnitude. Several old Klondikers now in Sea have received notice of the case, toge with an explanatory circular asking c. operation. The attorneys are undertak- ing the case on a contingent fee, and by many leading legal lights it is belicved they have a g0od_chance to recover som of this money. It is alleged, too, that much of the royalty collected never reached the Government's coffers. ———— HUSSAR IS DEGRADED FOR ATTACKING A FRIEND Lieutenant Cuts Off Another Man's Ear in Fulfillment of a Queer Wager.

Members of the regimental band formed a German organization this afternoon and marched through camp, making discordant music. They serenaded the headquarters of the regimént and The Call and made thihge lively in camp. The aggregation dressed in harmony with its music. Sergeant Austin, Morris and Sam Manaton ed like cherubs; Harry G. Leonard, Charlie Turner, Eddy Hol- lahan and Bob Grénnan were garbed like ‘‘per- fect devils.” The balance of the band wore clothes that might have earned them a few months' rest at the Napa Asylum.
