Arrest oC Tribe's Giant Beau Bruin

After Fugitive Drinks Until
Peacefully Intoxicated.
LEWISTON. Idaho, March 9. (Spe
cial.) P. Welsh, Constable at Arrow,
Idaho, started to arrest Chief Thomas
Moxmoi, of the Nez Perce tribe, ac
cused of beating- his aged mother, but
the officer passed the night as a pris
oner in the Indian's house and walked
back to town, eight miles, minus his
hat, revolver and some preconceived
notions of an Indian s lack of sagacity.
The Constable told Sheriff Lydon
that when he found the Indian he had
no trouble in arresting him. The pair
were waiting for a train when Mox
mox, who is a physical giant, and the
Beau Bruramel of his tribe, asked to
be allowed to go to the river for a
lrink. The Constable gave permis
sion, and a. few minutes later found
himself overpowered by the red man
and his squaw. The squaw stuffed part
of a shawl in the officer's mouth and
with her husband's aid marched Con
stable Welch up Potlatch Creek and
kept him a prisoner all night.
Meantime the finding of the officer's
hat near the scene of the scuffle beside
the river started the report that he had
met foul play.
Sheriff Lydon took up the trail and
located Moxmox in a clump of brush.
Covering the Indian wfth his gun the
Sheriff arrested him, but not until he
had finished the contents of a liquor

OLYMPIA, Wash., March 9. (Special.)
The feature of the state initiative
law which requires that all signatures
to initiative petitions, to be valid, must
be thoso of registered voters, threatens
to cause trouble in the present cam
paign. Under the law, city registra
tion officials must check the signa
tures on the petitions with those in the
registration books. No- financial com
pensation is provided, and already
rumors of dissatisfaction and threats
to refuse to do the work have been
heard.
W. H. Kingery, Socialist member of
the Legislature, in charge of the cam
paign for the eight-hour law. said that
Tacoma City officials are prepared to
resort to a charter provision allowing
them to make a specified charge for

win not be circulated in Tacoma, at
least for the present.
Mr. Kingery said "that by circulating
the eight-hour petitions at the polling

Clemency Only Opposed by Rich

tormy session when the application of
B. F. (Barney) O'Neil, convicted pres
ident of the defunct State Bank of
Commerce, of Wallace, for a full and
complete pardon, was heard. The Board
took the application under advisement,
wishing to review the evidence.

d'Alene. appeared for O'Neil. James
A. Wayne, former County Attorney .of
Shoshone County, opposed the applica
tion. L. C. Wilson, receiver of the
bank, was also here, but did not speak.
McFarland charged that only wealthy
nen of Shoshone County wanted O'Neil
mprisoned. He declared that outside
of Shoshone County, in North Idaho,
the people are unanimous for a pardon,
and" that as Idaho had a direct pri
mary and the people had thus spoken
to the officers elected by them they
hould heed their wishes. He charged
that if they do ' not they may expect
rebuke at the polls.
in opposing the pardon and scoring
O'Neil as a crook, Wayne asserted that
O'Neil only left the fixtures, vault and
safe of the bank when he broke it by
s false transactions. He said O'Neil
got $336,000 of the bank's money and
is assets were only about 4000; his
campaign for Governor cost the depos

Who Bakes Your Bread?
Did you ever visit the. shop where your bread is baked? Are you
sure it is clean and sanitary? Do you know that the baker selects
pure materials of highest quality? You run no risk if you make
your bread
It is the real "staff of life," being made from the whole wheat grain,
steam-cooked, shredded and baked under conditions that insure its
absolute purity and cleanliness. More nourishing than meat or
eggs, costs less and is much more easily digested. Supplies the
warmth and strength that are needed for chilly days.
' Always heat the Biscuit in oven to restore crispness. Two Shredded
Wheat Biscuits with hot milk or cream will supply all the energy
needed for a half day's work. Deliciously nourishing when eaten in
combination with baked apples, stewed prunes, sliced bananas or canned
or preserved fruits. Try toasted Triscuit, the Shredded Wheat wafer,
for luncheon with butter, cheese or marmalade.
