WILD MAN IS A
TERROR 10 ALL
I ASHCROFT, H. C. July 13? AnothcO
"wild man" has been discovered, or
rather has revealed himself. The en
tire upper part of the Pemberton
Meadows district is at present terror
ized by the numerous appearances of
late of a "Mowgli" or wild man.
News of the recent appearances of
the demented creature ? for such It
is believed to bo ? was brought here
by Rev. Fathers Itohe and Lessleur.
who returned yesterday from a
months missionary tour through the
I'emberton Meadows' district Ac
cording to these well known mission
ary workers there is great excite
ment among the Indians in that val
ley. A number of the natives have
i been terrorized by the wild man who
j armed with a brush knife at the end
I of a long pole, has chased a num
ber of Indians at different places 'n
[ the valley, where they accidentally
i encountered him.'
The menace from the wild man and
his terrible weapon, which gives him
a chance to inflict severe wounds
from a considerable distance, is deen.
! ed so great that a veritable reign of
terror prevails in the upper part of
the valley. Every Indian, and even
the squaws when they they have oc
casion to venture forth , now go arm
ed. Revolvers and firearms are in
vi' <-at demand and the Indians have
become so worked up over the wild'
man that they all threaten to shoot
him on sight. They consider they
have the right to take the law in
their own hands ;is there is no police
force any nearer than Vancouver or
Lillooet, the latter being 65 miles a
j way from th escene of the trouble.
The wild man is believed to be
some former telegraph lineman who,
becoming demented from a long, lon
ely sojourn in the wilds, has run
I amuck with his brush-hook, an in
[ strument used to cut the small branctr
| es of trees away from the wires.

ADRIFT ON THE DEEP BLUE SEA
Seeking surcease from his longj

of his arduous duties, Customs Inspei*
tor Pitman blithely boarded the
staunch launch Elsie at 7 o'clock yes
ter eve, in company with Fred Rlch
ter and a gentlemau of color, bound
for Burro Creek.
All went well until the Elsie reach
ed a point about betwixt and between
and then the engine stopped ? which
is an annoying habit that gasoline en
gines have. In vain did Fred Ricbter
tinker with the ln'ards of the machine,
in vain did all three abjure it to
work. The engine quit ? that was all
there was to it.
Driven by a strong wind and an in
coming tide the Elsie was rapidly
being driven toward the rocks off
Smuggler's Cove, when Will Hlllery
saw the Elsie's' predicament and ac
companied by his wife, set out to the
rescue 111 his launch.
He ran alongside when the Elsie
was less than fifty feet off the rocks
and taking a line towed the di6Com

REIMS ARE mOflSfS
CHICAGO, July 15? Religious "re
vivals" were classed with hypnotic se
ances and scored for their unnatural
and "weird" results yesterday by Pro
fessor Edward Scrlbner Ames, of the
University of Chicago, in a lecture on
"The Development of the Personal
Religious Experience" at the univers
ity. Professor Ames declared that re
vival converts were likely to be un
desirable additions to the church.
"In no respect is there greater
agreement among psychologist# of re
ligion than that of the methods of
the revivals which are essentially me
thods of hypnotism," said the speaker.
"The fixing of attention, the manip
ulation of the subjects through a se
ries of suggestions, the final manda
tory exhortation to surrender and to
indicate it by simple response ? all
these are well known methods of
hypnotism."

days.
Capt. Brown let a contract, for the |
building of a small manufacturing lab
oratory on the beach to Wm, Leslie
and farthermore stated that within
three years there would be a railroad

"There is no question about the ex
tent or the values of the ore at Rainy
Hollow," said Capt. Brown, "and
such being the case we are certain
to have a road to the mines in a
comparatively short time. When wu
can show beyond a doubt that we
have the ore, the railroad will be]
built. I have every assurance ofj
that."
Mr. Seymour has been an instruc
tor of chemistry at the University of
Maine and also has several years of
practical experinece.
