DEATH PENALTY FOR 29
| Sentences Imposed on Members of
Band of Russian Robbers
and Murderers.
St. Petersburg, Russia—Penalties
of death or life- imprisonment have
been meted out to the men, youths
and women members of the youthful
band that for 18 months during 1907-
08 committed a series of murders and
robberies that kept the residents of a
considerable territory in a state of
terror.
Twenty-nine boys and men ranging
in ages from 18 to 25 years were sen
tenced to death. Eight women escap,
were sentenced to imprisonment for
life, A 15-year-old boy who was
shown to have been an active outlaw
was sent to the colony for juvenile of-
fenders.
The most sensational feat of this
band ‘was accomplished August 23,
1907, when it held up a train on the
Coast Railroad and robbed the cashier
of the Sestraretska imperial arms
factory of $6,500. Col. Sudeikin, wha
sat near the cashier, was shot fatally
Many factories and wineshops were
looted and among those who suffered
death at the hands of the desperadoes
were a student, a woman and several
policemen.
The condemned showed great bra
vado during their trials and jested ag
their sentences were pronounced.
SCOTT OFF FOR THE SOUTH POLE
British Captain, Commanding Terra
Nova, Sails From London on
Exploring Journey.
London, England—The steamship
manding, sailed June 1 from West
India docks bound for the South Pole
An elah¢rate ceremonial was to have
marked the explorer’s departure, but
it was abandoned on account of King
Edward’s death.
The Terra Nova will sail first to
New Zealand, whence a start will be
made for Antarctic waters in Novem-
ber. By January it is expected that
the landing of parties and the erection
of huts at the edge of the South Polar
continent will have commenced. Feb-
ruary and March will be spent iz lay-
ing out depots and before settling
down for the winter, the captain hopes
to have accomplished 300 miles of his
journey overland.
The real dash for the pole will start
(n October, 1911. From the expedi-
tion’s base the round trip is about
1,500 miles and at the rate of 10 or 12
miles a day if the pole is reached it
wi be about the middle of December,
911.

KNOX SCORES VICTORY
Peru and Ecuador to Withdraw Armies
from Frontier.
Washington—Both Peru and Ecua-
dor have agreed to withdraw the
:roops which for some time past they
1ave been mobilizing on the frontier
)f the two countries,' preparatory to
var over the question of the bound-
iry between the two South American
states.
This information reached the state
jepartment. The withdrawal of
roops means that the two countries
accept the offer of mediation in the
boundary question . by the United
States, Brazil and Argentina,
State department officials are elat-
3d at the success of the joint offer of
mediation which was proposed by Sec
retary Knox. The fact that Peru
would withdraw her troops from the
border was known this morning, but
Ecuador’s consent to do likewise did
not reach the state department until
late in the day.

MOTORING ON
ANCIENT ROADS
One Adventurer Found Almost
Ideal Conditions in the Cactus
of the Yaqui River.
Writing of his experiences, ‘“Motor-
ing in a Cactus Forest,” for the Cen-
tury, Charles Frederick Holder says:
“The equipment of our car consist-
ed of a tarpaulin and blankets, can-
teens (strapped on the outside to get
the cool air), a water alla, or jar, in
the car, and a scant food supply, as
we expected to lite on the country,
where deer and various game birds
are plentiful. We took rods, guns
and rifles, and the chauffeur was
armed with a six-shooter. It is neces-
sary to carry water when away from
the river, and as the delta from the
Mayo to the Yaqui was seventy or
eighty miles wide in places, as we
traveled the runner was depended
upon to show where the wells were in
case of a breakdown.
“We were off early in the April
morning, plunging directly into a cac-
tus forest, the touring car gliding
along the perfect roads like a bird.
The delta was apparently level.
to the north, beyond the Yaqui River,
were the Bacatete mountains, the
stronghold for ages of the wild or
bronco Yaquis.. To the west strange,
jagged and isolated peaks, Mounts Cu-
chus, Chimbampo, Tesamo, Guama-
chil and others, stood out against the
sky, while to the south were other
peaks, and all day, as we sped on to
| the west, mountain ranges and peaks
rose over the cactus trees and the
edge of the world and came into life,
like ships at sea.
“The delta itself was like the floor
of a room, and the only hill we saw
was in coming out of the Cocoraqui
arroyo, which proved to be no hill,
but the wall of a balsa, or irrigation
dam. I should think the drop from
Esperanza to the Gulf for seventy
miles was a foot a mile, and in April |
we found the ancient roads almost
perfect, comparable in the main to
those of a park. They were evidently
made by merely cutting down the cac-
tus, leaving a hard, smooth surface,
over which a motor can move at any
speed.”
= BACKWOODS :
: SURGERY.
B1essoseasssssgsesrrescel
“Accidents in the woods are by no
means uncommon and a general
knowledge of their treatment is de-
cidedly worth while. Dr. Charles
Stuart Moody has an article on Back-
woods Surgery in the Outing Maga-
zine. In discussing the different acci-
dents and their treatment, he says:
““A very distressing little accident
is the dislocation of the lower jaw.
I once had a patient who rode a long
distance with his mouth wide open,
suffering a great deal of inconveni-
ence and no little pain, when one of
his friends could have relieved him
in an instant. Wrap both your
thumbs in several layers of cloth,
stand behind the patient who should
be seated, and place your thumbs,
thus protected, on his back teeth,
grasp his jaws on either side with
your fingers, press down with your
thumbs, up with your fingers, at the
same time drawing the jaw forward.
The bones will go back with a snap
and the victim will spasmodically
close his mouth hard enough to draw
blood unless your thumbs are well
shielded.”
Fish Caught by Anchor Chain.
A remarkable catch of big fish in
Cheasapeake Bay is reported by the
| officers of the Norwegian steamer
Tancred, lying at Baltimore. The
steamer was on her way up the bay
and came to anchor off Sandy Point
over night. Next morning when her
anchor was being raised the mate,
who was watching the cable come in,
saw something wriggling in the wat- |
er. The entire chain was hoisted a
little further and it was seen that a
big fish had been caught in one of the
links,
A man was sent over the side, and
when he came back he had a fine
Chesapeake Bay mackerel weighing
over five pounds. The fish was
dressed and served for the cabin din-
ner. It is supposed that the fish in
chasing prey ran into the link of the
chain and wedged itself so tight that
it could not get loose. = Washington
Star,
His Professional Pride Hurt.
In a Christmas fairy play in Paris
a set of dominoes was represented by
men wearing on their backs boards
marked with the different numbers.
One day a super gave in his resigna-
tion and told the manager he must
find a substitute.
“Why, what’s the trouble?” asked
the manager. ‘‘Don’t you get fifteen
sous a night like the others?”
“It isn’t the sous at all,” said the
super haughtily. “I am one of the
oldest artists belonging to the thea-
tre, and I think you ought to have
made me double six; instead I am the
lowest number—double aught.”—Le
Figaro.
