in attendance upon the grand jury ^
which 1? hearing the case of the United
States against a young native charged
with burglary, Spiridon Chulik by
name. The story ot bow Cbulik came
to be so charged is something of a ro
mance. He is an Aleut whose home it
at Kodiak island, but he was in attend
ance at school at Sitka the orphanage '
conducted by the Ru-sian church. He
fell in lovo with Lizzie Alland, half
breed, atSitkn and was plighted to her
according to the customs of bcr people,
btfore her atspmbled relatives and
friend*. According to these customs It
devolved upon bim to provide (or her
from thai time, however Ions the (red
ding might be deferred, which, in thla
case it waa agreed, hecauaeof the youth
of the couple, ahould be three year*.
Being a school boy he soon found tbia a
difficult matter. Ho had dealres to ap
pear well In the eye of hia aweathcart
and it woa soon suspected that he had
not come honestly by the present* ho
showered upon her. especially as the
storekeepers at t^ie aame time aaw their
?tocki being depleted without return in
caab. Investigation discovered a quant
ity of stolen goods in her home an J so
this chargc was prefered and the young
man arrested.
