Pella Stofoff, a follow-countryivan and a half cousin of the deceased, was taken into custody as a material witness. The hatchet with which the crime was committed was found beside the body. This is tho second murder that has occurred in tho elacedonian colony in the city dur- ing the past two years. The hatchet, which had been used with deadly effect, was found on the floor a few feet from the body of tho victim. Robbery was apparently the motive, as the man's tronas wore loosened at the waist, where it was believed ho carried a belt containing money. Moreover, blood stains in tho right band pocket in- dicated that tho murderer had thrust his hands into the pocket. That there had been no struggle was evidenced by the fact that the few pieces of old furniture in the room in which the deed was com- mitted had not been disturbed. Tho murderer, woo had apparent- ly been frightened before complet- ing his search of the victim's cloth- ing, overlooked a bag containing $100 in gold of Macedonian do - nomination, which was found sewed to the linen of the victim's inside vest. The murdered man wore two pairs of trousers and two vests. Tb AN INDIAN CRUCIFIED. He Took the Role of Christ in Pas - slim flay. A despatch from City of Mexico says: Tiburcio Ziuubrana, a Tux - pan Indian, who was crucified at his own urgent request by worshippers at the annual Easter celebration of the crucifixion of Christ by mem- bers of his tribe near Guadalajara, has died from lockjaw. Zambrana took the role of Christ in tho Indian Passion Play, and as tho climax of his performance he insisted that he be nailed to the cross instead of being strapped, as has been the custom. His death followed as a result of the terrible injuries caused by the nails being driven through his hands and feet. It is believed that this tragic affair among the Tu irpan Indians will lead to vigor- ous measures by President Diaz and the national Government to pre- vent the celebration in future. • BUILD TO IIUDSON'S BAY. Grand Trunk Pacific Will Start a Line Soon.

As a result of the riled inspection system in force at ports of entry during the past year, forty-five hundred inunigrants had been turned back as undesir- ables. �3- -- VOTES FOR WOMEN. New Brunswick Legislature Passes A Resolution. A despatch from St. John, N. 11., says: By a vote of 18 to 17, the Provincial Legislature on Thursday night passed a resolution by W. F. Hntheway, preliminary to the intro- duction Of a hill giving the privil- eges of the provincial franchise to all women entitled to vote in civic elections. The bill is expected to CONDENSED NEWS ITEMS WOMEN IN SAVAGE LANDS. Health of Modern Woman Poor Compared With Savage. There can be practically no com- parison In toe hatter of Health botweon the savaeo and civilized wumau. l.e latter is longer -lived, it is true, but silo is seldom posses - ed of the exuberant health treat is common to tho former. Child- birth is a simple tiling to the un- civilized woman, ann very rarely fatal or productive of the train of diseases common to the modern woman. After a day or so the new mother is 'able to take up her customary occupations, and she is never in need of the retinue of doctors, trained nurses and spe- cialists that tho civilized woman demands. The savage woman is usually a perfect physical specimen of hu- manity, and by virtue of bearing heavy loads on her head acquires a carriage and deportment that would have delighted a Greek sculptor. A majestio woman, with small baro feet and grand, swinging, de- liberate gait, Hibiscus blossoms in her flowing hair, a wreath of yel- low flowers falling over her native garments, has a tragic grandeur of appearance which makes the diminutive, fair-haired foreigner trotting along hesitatingly in high - heeled shoes look grotesque in com- parison. Woman the world over ban her hours of ease. She dances, she sings, she prays to the gods; she visits the gossips, slso anoints and decorates herself. So it is not fare to advance a theory that in a state of living whore house rent is unknown, where the tax collector does not call, pipes do not burst with frost and tho cook does not leave on the eve of the grand dinner, that woman is happier than when she has to con- tend with these difficulties? Is woman more settled in life? is the modern husband better than the savage? is woman free or happier? Well read the daily papers and decide. tlAl'PENINGS FROM ALL OVEII THE GLOBE.

Peculiar Haze, intense Heat Dur- ing Suinme.• of 1783. Europe and Asia were covered by fog during the summer of 1783. Says Gilbert White (letter 109): "The summer of the year 1783 was an amazing and a portentous one for, besides the alarming meteors and tremendous thunder- storms . . . the peculiar haze, or smoky fog, that prevailed for many weeks in this island (Eng- land) and in every part of Europe, and even beyond its limits, was a most extraordinary appearance. The heat was intense. Calabria and part of the isle of Sicily were torn and convulsed with earthquakes." Cowper also refers to this pheno- menon, in speaking of "nature, with a dish and sickly eye." INCREASE OF 800,000 ACHES High Prices Will Mean I� in Wheat in the Mean More Land Sown Wheat the W est. A despatch from Winnipeg says: The prospect of a.0 increased grain acreage in the Prairie Pro inces as a result of high prices, is attracting much attention. Fronk 0. Fowler, secretary of the North -\Vest Grain Dealers' Association. is in receipt of many wires from Enstern cities on the subject. Ile said on Wed- nesday : "Tire natural increase in acreage this year will be about e00.000 acres at n rough estimate. This is the result of lands throes teen and homes acting. The aereag- last year was about 6,:00,000 acres in Manitoba. This year it will be about 7,500,000 acres. At an aver- age crop of 17 or 18 bushels per acre, which is a small one, this will mean an increase in the estimates of last year of about 15,000.000 bnshela. Add this to the estimate.) 100,000,000 bushels of last year, and it will be seen that this year's crop may he roughly estimated at about 11:1.000,000 bushels. Of course, this is taking every advantage and dis- ad% nut age into eonsideration." fn •'der sections. Mr. Fowler thinks. th- eerie -se may increase to s.enc son.:d.'r.tl,:e ( .tent.

KINRADE INQUEST IIAbTEB Florence Failed to Answer When Her Name Was Called. Wamilton, April 22. - Fail- ure on the part of Mrs. Kin - rade and Florence Kinrado to com- ply with the desire of the Crown to bo in attendance at the adjourn- ed inquiry into the murder of Ethel Kinrade, brought tho pro- ceedings to an abrupt termination to -night. Both were notified to bo in attendance, and during the day the Crown authorities had vainly endeavored to get into communica- tion. Mr. Blackstock was com- pelled to ask for an adjournment until to -morrow night, and in the meantime the Crown will take steps to secure the attendance of Mrs. and Miss Kinrade. Mr. G. Lynch Staunton, legal representative of the family, was in court during tufo earlier part of the proceedings, but he offered no explanation for the ladies' absence. Tho procedure will now bo to re -subpoena the wit- nesses, who are considered omen - tial. Four witnesses were examined to -night, but their evidence was of an entirely negative character. Mrs. Taylor a neighbor of the Kin- rades, told the jury that she had seen a man in the neighborhood of the tragedy, but her description of this individual was exceedingly vague. Mrs. Ernest Kinrado, sis- ter-in-law of the dead girl, was ex- amined at length as to rho rela- tions existing between the girls and other members of the family, which she declared were always amicable. A young lady swore Miss Florence was in Stanley Mills' store on the morning of the murder, while the fourth witness gavo some evidence as to the move- ments of Mr. Ernest Kinrado ea the fateful afternoon, pproving that he was engaged in building opera, tions the greater part of the tune. 15,000 SLAIN IN MASSACRES Fanatacism Against Christians at Its Greatest Height. A despatch from Montreal says: Incoming trains were s, rieusly de- layed on Thursday, owing to the severity of the previous night's storm. The storm blew so fiercely across Lake Champlain that the Rutland & Central Vcrinont bridge at Rouse's Point was seriously to danger of being blown to pieces. Driven by the terrific south winds, the waves were runuing fifteen feet high, pounding against the bridge with tremendous force, and plenging several feet over the tracks. At 8.30 on Wednesday night two Central Vermont passen- ger trains attempted to cross, but were caught in the centre of tie hosed two faits of hair, one grey bridge, the wind and waves pre- and the other reddish brown.
