THURSDAY KVENING,
Beattie, superintendent of native
schools for Alaska. An investigation
in the Kililsnoo village led Superin
tendent Beattie to bring a number of
the tribe to Juneau for examination
by District Attorney Smiser, with the
result the witch was found, but no
law could be found on which to base
a complaint against him.
From the testimony of the witness
es examined before the District At
torney the story of the witchery cen
ters around a blind man, his fifteen
year-old daughter and her grand
mother. For several months the blind
man has been announcing himself as
a witch and has claimed responsibility
for practically all the deaths that have
ocurred in the village of Kiliisnoo for i
the past five years.
According to the story of the little
native girl, Mary Moses, or Klan
tosh, as her Indian name is, the first
time she knew that her father was a
witch was one night a "long time afro"
when she was awakened In her sleep I
and felt cold. She called her father
and asked for more covers, which he
bi ought, and while covering her over,
she says, he told her for the first time
that he was a witch and that he want
ed her to learn to be one too in order
that she might carry on his work
when he died.
In order that she might learn the
secrets of the practice she said her
father told her she must visit with
him an old graveyard across the bay.
Mary stated her father told her to take
hold of his foot and in a moment they
I "flew" across the channel to the ceme
j tery. While there she said they were
able to look through the earth down
into the graves and could see the
| bodies in them. After wandering about
(the graves for a time hey father trans
formed himself into a white duck and
on his back she says She rode back
across the channel. Mary told the
District Attorney that that night she
learned many things about witchcraft,
j The girl's story was told Trith
straight-forwardness and without con
tradiction and the reason she said she
wanted something done with her
father was because she feared he
would kill her grandmotner with
witchery. The child's mother is dead
and she is apparently very fond of her
grandmother, and is evidently sincere
in her fear of her father's powers.
The only charges against her father
are based upon the firm belief that he
is a witch and in that connection he
is accused of being responsible for
everything in the way of misfortune
which has happened in the Kiliisnoo
Indian village. In the eyes of the law,
Mr. Smiser says, it does look a little
like hypnotism, hut nothing tangible
has occurred which can be reached
by law.
In his rtmarlis before the District
Attorney, Superintendent Beattie said:
"The question of witchcraft is one of
HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH
the most difficult problems we have
to handle among the natives. The ex
istence of witches is a certainty with
them, and there is absolutely no pos
sibility of convincing them that, there
are no such things as witches. It isn't
stubbornness on their part, it is sim
ply and sincerely their belief that
there are among their tribesmen per
sons who have power to cast a spell
over others of their number."
USED WHENEVER QUININE IS
NEEDED DOES NOT AF
FECT THE HEAD
Because of its tonic and laxative ef
fect. LAXATIVE HROMO QUININE will I
be found better than ordinary Quinine |
for any puprpose for wlilch Quinine is
used. Does not cause nervousness nor
ringing in head. Remember there is
only one "Bromo Quinine." Look for
signature of E. W. Grove. 25c.—Ad

TWO MORE DAYS
OF TRAVELOGUES
[Continued From First Page.]
matinees, and one Saturday night will
bring the series to a close.
The travelogues have been thor
oughly enjoyed by those who have at
tended. Traveloßuer Roberson has
lived up to his reputation of being one
of the best in his field of endeavor and
his pictures—-both motion and col
ored—covering the entire world and
his talks have been a source of pleas
ure and instruction for many who
have spent night after night in front
of his screen.
The action of the board of educa
tion in engaging Mr. Roberson for a
special series of travelogues for bene
fit of the school children testitled to
the regard in which he is held by
educators in his special field. The
travel-talks while entertaining and
"even amusing at times, are still highly
instructive and leave one with a wider
and better knowledge of conditions
and things as tfiey are at home and
abroad.
A tour in the homeland from New
York to San Francisco, with stops at
a!i places of historic, scenic and per
tinent interest, has been selected as
I the final school matinee under the title
j "Beautiful America. New York, Bos-
I ton, Philadelphia, Washington, the
I Hudson, Niagara Falls, the great cen
jtral west and south, the Rocky moun
-1 tains, Yellowstone Park, the Grand
I Canyon and California will alt be in
cluded. The matinee will commence
at 4:15 and end about 5:30. Although
specially given for school children, the
public is admitted. Admission is 10
centrt, no coupons necessary.
Italy is the subject Friday evening, I
and "London and Paris" Saturday,
i both being' travelogues of ex
ceptional interest. Among the well
known places to be visited in the for
mer will be Rome. Naples, Venice,
Monte Carlo, Florence, Milan and
Genoa. A feature in motion pictures
of unusual interest will be of Italian
cavalry officers on a daring ride over
the roughest country in Italy. Mr.
Roberson Is authority for tne state
ment that it is the most spectacular
and thrilling moving picture he has
in his collection.
An added attraction at each eve
ning travelogue is a musical program
by Miss Sara Lemer and Charles
Mackey on the violin and piano for
the three-quarters of an hour before
Mr. Roberson starts on his screen
tour.
All admission prices for evening are
10 cents with the coupon on the first
page of the Telegraph, or 2f. cents for
a seat in the reserved section admis
sion included.
