The translation is by Princess Fer- | dinand de Faucigny-Lucigne and Jean Izoulet, who declare that their work has ; the authorization of Mr. Roosevelt. The preface of the translation pays a glowing tribute to the United States and compares Presidént Roosevelt's book with Jemes Bryce's “The American Common-| wealth,” saying the latter gives the views | of the outside observer, while “The Stren- | uous Life” gives the views of the ob- server on the inside. President Roosevelt is described as “‘the virile champion of a nation which has bécome powerful in deciding the destinies of the world.” The high standards which PresiGéent Roosevelt has introduced into pablic life in America are dwelt upon. Another work, by Vicomte de Noailles, which appeared last tailed account of the operations of the French soldiers and marines who partici- Pated in the war for American independ- ence. The information contained in this volume was obtained from official archives. The Vicomte's book is one of several works on similar subjects which are in course of preparation and which &re encouraged by the French Govern ment.

TACOMA, Nov. 9.—Dispatches from Skagway and Juneau give brief details of a horrible example of witcheraft and | superstition in the Hoonah Indian vil- lage, forty miles distant from Juneau. Though quiét and peaceable, the Hoo- nah Indians are very superstitious, and nearly every year one or more suffers death violently. Several days ago the In- dians took a man who was believed to be possessed of the devil and made him the victim of frightful atrocities. His ears were cut off and his body was frightfully hacked in an unsuccessful effort to drive out the demon. The victim was*troubled wjth epileptic fits, which continued. He was finally buried alive in the earth and his scalp cut off inch by inch. Officers were hurried to the scene from Juneau on a special steamer. e————1 NAME OF PRESIDENT USED WITHOUT WARRANT Postmaster General Explains AbSut Basis of Representation in Re- publican Conventions. WASHINGTON, Nov. 9.—“There is no authority for coupling the name of the President with the statement published | to-day that the administration is in favor of a change in the basis of and a reduc- tion in the representation of the Southern States in Republican national conventions and the House of Representatives.” Postmaster. General Payne made this statement to-day as he left the executive offices after a conference With the Pres- ident. “My position on the basis of represen- tation in Republican national conven- tions,” continued Payne, “is well under- stocd. For many years I have believed that the present basis is unfair and an improper one. I believe- g0 now and ex- pect always to believe so, . and I hope to see that basis changed by the next na- tional convention. There is no power to change the basis of representation ex- cept by action of the convention itself.” DEPARTS FROM POLITICS TO WRITE ABOUT GOLF Great Britain’s Premier Puts in a ‘Word Against Standardization of Balls. LONDON, Nov. 9.—In the midst of ail the stress of his Parliamentary labors occasioned by the bitter fight against the educational bill, Premier Balfour found time to write a letter to a golfing paper against the standardization of golf balls, which has been so keenly debated since the introduction of American rubber-cov~ ered balls. The Premier declares he has viewed with ‘“‘great apprehension the introduc- tion into golf of so great a novelty as the standardization of the implements used by players.” Such standardization he. considers could not be restricted to the balls, and he thinks it “‘a pity to destroy the unlimited freedom of selection which among all games belongs, so far as I know, alone to golfers.” ¢ —t SUCCUMBS TO GRIEF OVER BROTHER'S DEATH SAN JOSE, Noy. 9.—The strong affec- tion of one brother for another. is be- lieved to have caused the death of Dr. Justus Blaisdell at his home near this city yesterday.

Epecial Correspondence of The Call. ONOLULU, Nov. 1L.—Death from fire was the fate of two women and a young girl on the moruning of October 30. The vicims were Mrs. Edward B. Friel, her mar- ried daughter, Mrs. Nigel Jackson, and a younger daughter, Miss Etta Friel. At 2:15 o'clock in the morning the fire alarm sounded, the home of the Friels being in flames. Mounted Officer McCor- mick alarmed the inmates and got all out in safety. In an effort to save their valuables, however, the women returned to their rooms and escape was then im- possible, owing to the collapse of the staircase. They were seen, with the youngest daughter, Georgia Friel, at an upper story window and were told to Jump. Georgia, aged 10, did so, ;nnd re- ceived injuries to her leg and shoulder. Mrs. Jackson also escaped from the house but was so badly burned about the face and body that she dled in agony two hours ldter. Mrs. Friel and her daughter Etta, aged 15, seemed afraid to jump, and fell with the ruins of the burned building. Their charred bodies were recovered after day- light. The little girl was covered with a mattress from the bed in the room in which she and Mrs. Friel were last seen. Undoubtedly the mother, when she saw that thére was no hope, endeavored to save the child by throwing the mattress over her. Mother and child must have been suffocated soon after the two left the window and turned back into the room. Mr. Friel escaped buf, the loss of his wife and child, while he was trying to fight the fire with a hose, has almost craze him. Three boarders living in the house, who slept on the ground floor, also escaped without injury. The fire started in the rear of the house, burning the kitchen and enveloping the lowér hallway and stairway in flames. It spread rapidly to the front and the wind froni the Pall fanned it. The house was a wooden structure and burned like paper. Mr. Friel says that during the previous night an attempt was made to burn the housé, but he discovered it and the plot was frystrated. He says that threats have beell made to burn the house and kill all of its inmates and that he knows the person who made them. The threats were made to him personally, as well as to others. Nigel Jackson, husband of Mrs. Jack- son, who was burned to death, has been arrestéd. He and his wife had experi- enced many disagreements and he was be- ing sued by her for divorce. Jackson has been connected with the local police force during the last four years. He is a man greatly interested in all forms of sports, is an all round athlete and a member of one of the lacal baseball clubs. ® fefieieinininiiel @ BISHOP CONATY WOULD QUIT EDUCATIONAL WORK Is the Unanimous Choice of the Hier- archy to Succeed Bishop " Montgomery. NEW YORK, Nov. 9.—The Tribune has the following from Washington: The Right Rev. Thomas A. Conaty, rector of the Catholic University, will ask the trus- tees to elect his successor when they hold the annual meeting at the university on November 12. Dr. Conaty's admthistra- tion of the institution has been success- ful, and there is no doubt that the trus- tees would elect him for another term if he should wish to remain. His prefer- ence, however, is to retire from educa- tional Work at this time and assume charge of a diocese or take a place as auxiliary Bishop in some important dio- cese. Inasmuch as there is not at pres- ent a vacancy such as he would like, it 12 possible that he may consent to rem; at the head of the university until sfich vacancy occurs. Should the papers appointing Bishop Montgomery of Los Angeles and Mon- terey Coadjutor Archbishop of S8an Fran- cisco arrive, Bishop Conaty will be unan- imously recommended by the hierarchy for the Los Angeles diocese. Likewise if Bishop Spalding is promoted to the met- ropolitan see of Chicago he may choose Bishop Conaty for his coadjutor, but if none of these things happen before No. vember 12 Bishop Conaty will be urged to continue in the university until he ob- tains a suitable diocesan position.

SANDRINGHAM, England, Nov. 9.— The weather here to-day was perfect and mild ‘and the bright sunshine brought crowds of visitors to Sandringham on the chance of seeing Emperor Willlam. The aproaches to the church were lined with spectators. Queen Alexandra, the Prince of Wales and Mrs, Chamberlain arrived at the church together. Half an heur later King Edward, Emperor Wil- liam, Prime Minister . Balfour, Colonial Bécretary Chamberlain and other distin- guished persons arrived and stood chat- ting cutside. Kipg Edward talked with Secretary Chamberlain for a féw min- utés; then the Emperor of Germéany ap- proacked and for a quarter of an hour the Emperor and Chamberlain stood apart nanerud earnestly.

He referred to King Edward’s recovery from his ill- ness; .to the visit of his kinsman Mon- arch and to-the ties which have long united Germany and Great Britain. The Bishop sald, however, that these coun- tries were divided by the German ‘ocean, a race blended of both peoples was con- tinuing to grow on the other side of the Atlantic where Gérmans and Englishmen were becoming one nativity. The ser- vices were closed by singing the nation- al anthem. Afterward the two Mon- archs walked together through the gar- dens.

The proceedings opened with- the or- chestra playing the ‘“‘Marseillaise,” after which M. Legallet delivered an address im which he explained that the mission of the Alliance Francaise was to teach thé French language and to make pop- ular its beauties and its richness, while, he said, it looked to the day when the students might know the French mind, appreciate its qualities and thus con- tribute to the strengthening of a move- ment of sympathy and fraternity which must render closer and tighter the bonds of friendship which have always linked together the two great republics. In the name of the comittee he thanked M. Dallamagne and James H. Hyde, the honorary ‘presidents, and others who had taken an interest in the work of the al- liance. The pupils then appeared in monologue and amusing dialects, in farces and com- medietta, in patriotic songs and also dances, The children proved that the instruc- tion given them in the French language had been thorough.

DOUKHOBORS FIERCELY RESIST BEING BEMOVED H Mounted Police and Citizens Experi- ence Difficulty in Getting the Fanatics on a Train. WINNIPEG, Man., Nov. 9.—The Douk- hobors were taken by special train from Minnedosa to Yorkton last night and were kept in the cars closely guarded by Northwest mounted police. If' the fight to move them one hundred yards is any example of what the Government has to contend with, it will take a much larger force to move them the one hundred miles to their villages, which afe that distance from Yorkton. Minnedosa dispatches tell of stormy scenes during the entraining of the pilgrims there. After repeated inter- views with Seikroff, the leader of the fa- natics, Agent Speers decided to use force and grabbing the leader by the shoulders, puched him out of the building in which the Doukhobors had spent the night, at the same time calling upon the police to bring the rest. As they came out the fanatics ~ locked themselves together, each man clinging to his neighbor, thus making a solid body. The citizens turned «out to- help the police but it was. hard work te pry the fanatics apart, it taking four or five men to pull one Doukhobor rom the interlocked ass. ‘Some went quietly when broken ay, but the ma- jority fought every inch of their ground. One citizen had an ear nearly bitten off, a Doukhobor had his ankle broken and there were many other minor mishaps. A few went to the coaches alone, but the majority were caried bodily, pushed along or loaded into the wagons of farmers, who had gathered to see the fight.
