E Scott, who recently returned here after one year at Aklavik, In the delta of the Mackenzie river, pre dicted that not many years would elapse before the Eskimo would be exterminated by disease through adopting white , men's ways of living. Eskimos and Indian of the Delta are suffering from intestinal para sitlc attacks, due to eating raw fish, rabbits and other meats, said the doctor, but these are not so serious a problem as cancer and appendicitis, which are becoming prevalent. Since the Eskimos have been living in cabins and shack3 instead of snow houses, as in the ! olden days, tuberculosis ' has ravaged them. Ninety per cent of the Delta people had symptoms of tuberculosis, he declared. . would have-"no effect onr him in giving Tom Murray a just' and fair trial on .the merits of (the! caseL" ' Some intimation or the line' on which the defense will proceed jwas ;1veu yesterday in the, examination of prospective jurors. It "would seem from the interrogation that Will R.

" j According to King, conditions prevalent in the "bull pen" and the "dungeon; at he sta-te prison are such as to instill revolt in the prisoners nd force them into such a state of mind that they would rather face death, in an attempted eecape. than. -to uffer the "cruel and ji n usual ( puhishment" that King declares Islmeted out to them at the penitentiary; "Prisoners in the JTtriill pen, receive but one meal a day;" King : said. "They are punished to a degree that makes death in an attempted escape pref erable to the living death within the prison walls." This morning the jury will be taken on a tour of the prison, and will inspect the cells from which Murray, Willos, Kelley i and Ore gon Jones escaped;, as well aa the administration building- from which they dropped to the ground after traversing jthe roof. The arsenal, from which gun6 and ammunition were obtained, and from which two guards were killed will also be inspected. .After this investigation the party will return to the court rooml where opening statements will he made by the state and the defense: At this time the trial will start in earnest In the questioning of Jurors, District Attorney John Carson continually reminded them of the seriousness of the case and point ed ont the responsibility they must bear in determining whether 'or npt Murray shall be sentenced to death, sentenced to life imprison ment or a prison term,1 or acqnit- ttd. Each one was questioned" as to whether he could in conscience. render a verdict of death. No one of the i2 selected was excused on this ground. Murray conductc-d himself an court in much the same manner as before, and did inot display ner vousnecs. He sat slouched down in his chair with1 hte legs crossed duct, was such as not to -attract the attention of spectators. His sia ter was ala present. . Last night C. D.

Two men were discussing horse racing and remarking upon the silly names many horses were given,: , "If I had a race hor-se I know what I should call hfm," said one. f "What?" "Money." "But that's absurd, isn't it?" "Is it? Well, tell me anything tiat goes quicker?" .-Anyone who has ever traveled on; the New York subway in rush iwurs can easily appreciate the tollowing: A little man, wedged into the middle of a car, suddenly thought of pickpockets, and quite as sud denly remembered, that he jhad f-ome money in his overcoat. ' lie plunged his hands into his pocket and was somewhat shocked upon encountering the fist of a fat fel low-passenger. "Aha!" snarled the latter, caught you that time!" "Leggo!" snarled the little man. "Leggo my hand!" "Pickpocket!" Jnlssd the fat man.- ;... . j ; N "Scoundrel !A retorfed the little one. - Just then a tall rnan in their vicinity glanced upl from als paper. j "I'd like to get off here." he drawled, "if yoa fellows don't mind taking your hands out of my pockets." i A man who had averted a great peril by an act 'of iieroism was much' complimented for his bravery; '- One woman said:i "I wih I could have seen ivour feat." Whereupon lie blushed and stammered, and ; finally, pointing downward, said: "Well. there tley be. mum."
