weight pugilist  of  England,  died  here  yes-

BLOW  AT  IRO.NT(3X. 
Ironton.  Ohio.  July  23.— A  terrific 
wind,  rain  and  hail  storm  last  night  de- 
molished Spanner,  Cohen  &  Goodmans' 
planing  mill,  blew  Out  the  end  of  the 
Belfont  company's  brick  warehouse,  un- 
roofed the  Enterprise  planing  mill,  and 
uprooted  hundreds  of  tree.s.  House.s  in 
the  low  lands  were  flooded  and  many 
were  struck  by  lightning. 


New  y^ ,  July  23.— A  dispatch  to  the 
Tribun'  .&  jm  London  says:  The  Enc- 
liph  at  ^  Je  f'f  UTirea.«:»ning  unl>eiief  re- 
-sp^cl'  oS'  everything  coming  from  offi- 
cial .^  COS  in  the  Chinese  provinces  is 
n.it  V  tified  by  inherent  ;>robabilitie?. 
Le  -j'  •  writers  who  are  cracking  Jdke.-i 
'"  ^'the  credulity  of  their  American 
c  V  ns  in  swallowing  Chinese  dates 
find  it  difliculi  to  explain  iCie  motive 
,ihe    imperial    government    in    either 

Jl'glng  or  raising-  the  date  of  Mr.  Con- 
di's dispatch  and  in  wantonly  deceiv- 
ing: one  power  after  another  with  false 
assurances  of  th.-  safety  of  the  lega- 
tions. Until  some  intelligible  motive  foi 
such  insensate  treachery  is  supplied,  \z. 
would  seem  prudent  to  give  Ij  the  im- 
perial government  credit  for  telling  at 
least  part  of  the  truth. 

Optimist  views  are  confined  to  small 
circles  here,  but  several  plausible  rea- 
.son.s  are  a.ssigned  for  them.  One  is  the 
evacuation  of  tSi<'  country  around  Tien 
Tsin  by  Chinese  troops,  since  it  implies 
a  decline  of  H  )xer  fanaticism.  Another 
is  the  quieting  down  in  Soutiiern  pro- 
vinces, for  the  reports  of  risings  at  Can- 
ton and  disturbances  caused  by  the 
Black  Flags  are  still  unconfirmed.  An- 
other is  Li  Hung  Chang's  journey  north- 
ward, which  will  be  continued  from 
Shanghai,  for  he  would  hardly  venture 
t>  pass  througti  the  allied  fleets  and 
camps,  as  the  new  governor  of  Pe  Chi 
Li,,  if  he  were  not  assured  of  the  safety 
of  the  ministers.  T<>  these  reasons  is 
added  inherent  probability  that  the  im- 
perial government  would  not  stultify 
itself  by  silly  mendacity  if  the  ministers 
had  been  massacred,  but  would  identify 
itself  with  a  rebellion  in  the  end  as  it 
had  done  in  the  beginning. 

Ttioughlful  nit-n,  reas ming  from  the.;* 
premises,  are  disposed  ti>  believe  that 
the  empress  dowager,  after  halting  be- 
tween Prince  Tuan  and  Prince  Chin^r. 
has  succeeded  in  enforcing  her  author- 
ity aitd  in  protecting  the  remnant  of  the 
ie2:ations.  for  not  even  the  most  san- 
guine optimist  Is  prepared  to  admii  that 
assaults  as  determined  «s  those  d'— 
scribed  by  Sir  Robert  Hart  and  Mr. 
Conger  hive  not  been  attended  with 
severe  loss  of  life. 

This  view  was  taken  by  the  hopeful 
minority  of  club  men  and  officers  in 
town  last  night.  The  majority  still  con- 
sidered it  impo.ssible  trat  Mr.  Conger  s 
message  could  have  b' en  sent  in  less 
than  two  days  from  Pekin  to  Shan  Tung, 
or  that  It  was  written  m  last  Wednes- 
day, and  they  attach  no  importance  to 
any  bulletins  or  guarantees  from  a 
viceroy  after  a  full  month  of  promiscu- 
ous mendacity. 

The  Figaro  states  that  a  private  mess- 
age has  been  received  from  Toklo  which 
stated  that  the  Japanese  minister  ai 
Pekin  has  given  news  of  himself  in 
terms  anabgous  to  those  of  Mr.  Con- 
ger. 

A  BRILLIANT  DASH. 

Americans  and  British  Take  a  Tit  n 
Tsin  Fort. 

New  York,  July  2.1— A  dispatch  to  the 
Journal  and  Advertiser  from  Chr  Von.  July 
20.  .says:  A  brilliant  dash  against  a  large 
force  of  Chinese  at  Tien  Tsin  was  made 
this  morning  by  a  detachment  of  American 
troops,  assi.stcd  by  some  Knglish  Fusileer.-;. 
The, .object  was  to  capture  a  battery  of 
large  caliber  cannon  which  had  been  doinv: 
great  damage.  The  Ar.gio-Amorican  troops 
eharged  a<-ross  an  iiixn  spacf  and  were 
exposed  to  a  hot  Inu  poorly  directed  Are 
from  the  "nemy.  Tlu  y  dashed  into  the 
fort,  and  tfter  engaging  the  Chinese  In  a 
sharp  hand-to-hand  flght,  put  them  to 
(light  and  are  masters  of  the  fort.  Kight 
large  modern  guns  were  captured,  together 
with  carls  and  all  the  ai'cessories.  The 
lattery  w.is  immediately  turned  upon  tlv^ 
fleeing"  enemy,  who.  under  the  direct  tir-^ 
suffered  heav.v  losses.  The  victor.v  was 
won  in  an  increiliKly  short  lime  against  an 
overwhelmingly  superif>r  force,  and  despite 
the  charge  under  tire  and  the  tight  in  the 
fort,  neither  the  Amei  ieans  nor  the  British 
lost  a  single  man. 

The  Chinese  army  is  now  retreating 
toward    Pekin. 

WILL  INVESTIGATE. 

Remey  Goes  to  Tien  Tsin  to  Look 
Around. 

Washington.  July  23.— The  bureau  of 
navigation  this  morning  received  the  fol- 
lowing cable  from  Admiral  Remey: 

-Taku,  July  22.— Going  Tien  Tsin  today 
to  look  into  matters,  leaving  senior  officer 
heie.  Newark  gone  Nagasaki  for  dock- 
ing." 

LOOKS  UKE  WAR. 

A  Stir  at  Governor's  Island  and  the 
Battery. 

New  York,  July  2:!.— Governor's  island 
and  the  ferry  entrance  at  the  Battery  re- 
call the  days  when  the  troops  were  pre- 
paring to  depart  for  the  South  at  the  out- 
break of  the  Spanish-American  war.  Three! 
companies  of  the  Eightoenth  L'nited  States  I 
infantry— J,  K  :tnd  I..— are  under  orders 
to  leave  Governor's  island  tomorrow  for 
San  Francisco,  and  th^  soldiers  believe 
they  win  see  active  service  in  China  before 
they  return  to  this  part  pf  the  world.  Rel- 
atives and  friends,  the  majority  of  them 
women,  spent  as  many  hours  of  Sunday 
with  them  as  the  rivles  and  regulations 
would  permit.  Many  a  tearful  farewell 
was  taken  i)y  the  vi.«ittirs,  but  the  soldiers 
themselves  joked  and  laugh. d  and  acted 
generally  as  if  the  prospects  of  fighting  In 
a   foreign  land   were  pleasing  to  them. 

The  thre-;  comptmies  that  will  begin  the 
long  journey  tomorrow  will  be  under  the 
command  of  Commander  Cornish.  At  Og- 
den.  Company  M  of  the  same  regiment  will 
join  the  contingent  from  Governor's  island. 
This  company,  for  a  year,  has  been  at  Fort 
McPherso!.,  Ga.  The  companies  will  go 
into  camp  at  the  Presidio  in  San  Francisco, 
preparatory  for  shipping  to  the  Philippines 
or  China,  as  may  be  determined  by  the  war 
department. 

Orders  have  been  issued  by  the  war  de- 
partment to  withdraw  the  First  infantry, 
now  stationed  at  Guanajay  and  Pinar  dej 
Rio,  in  Cuba,  and  early  next  month  part  of 


the  Eleventh  infantry  will  leave  Cuba.  A 
squadron  of  the  Plflh  cavalry  has  a.lso 
been  ordered  from  Cuba.  A  squadron  of 
the  Fifth  cavalry  has  also  been  ordered 
from  Cuba  to  Fort  Myer,  Wash.  These  are 
all  seasoned  troops,  and  it  is  expected  that 
they  will  be  able  to  give  a  good  account  of 
themselves  if  it  becomes  necessary  for 
them  to  go  to  China.  Army  officers  sta- 
tioned around  New  York  are  inclined  to 
the  belief  that  most  of  the  troops  now  un- 
der orders  to  go  to  San  Francisco  would  be 
landed   on  Chinese   soil. 

Army  officers  say  the  Chinese  trouble  and 
the  prospects  of  the  United  States  troops 
seeing  service  in  that  country  have  given 
a  great  impetus  to  recruiting  in  this  city. 
Nearly  all  the  regiments  in  the  service  are 
below  their  quotas  and  the  officers  in 
charge  of  the  recruiting  stations  have  re- 
ceived orders  to  redouble  their  efforts  to 
secure  men  for  the  regiments  now  in  the 
field.  Most  of  the  applicants,  many  of 
them  veterans  of  the  Spanish  war.  want  to 
be  assigned  to  regiments  under  orders  or 
likely  to  receive  orders  to  go  to  Asia.  No 
difficulty  is  anticipated  by  those  in  army 
circles  In  securing  all  the  men  necessary. 

SAFE  AND  KILLED. 

That  Is  How  Che  Foe  Reports  Have 
Lesationers. 

New  York,  July  J3.— A  dispatch  to  the 
Herald  from  Che  Foo,  July  21,  says: 
The  captain  of  a  British  steamer,  who 
has  just  arrived  from  New  Chwan.g,  re- 
ports that  there  arrived  there,  on  Thurs- 
day, a  Chinaman,  profe.ssing  to  be  a 
foreigner's  servant,  who  escaped  from 
Pekin  on  the  12th,  on  which  date  the 
British  legation  was  destroyed  and  the 
foreigners  butchered.  The  story  is 
credited  in  New  Chwang.  Another 
telegram  came  from  the  governor  of 
Shan-Tung,  Yuan  Shi  Kai,  last  night. 
He  says: 

"I  have  received  definite  Infonnation 
from  Pekin  that  all  the  ministers  are 
well  and  there  is  no  illness  among  them. 
The  proper  Chinese  authorities  are  de- 
vising means  for  their  rescue  and  pro- 
tection." 

SZO  CHUEN^jS  QUIET.

gram received  here  today  from  the

Washington,  July  23.— The  war  depart- 
ment Is  considering  the  advisability  of

San  Francisco,  July  28,  with  four  bat- 
teries of  artillery  and  500  marines,  direct 
to  Taku  instead  of  to  Nagasaki.  These 
troops  were  to  have  gone  on  the  Meade, 
whit  h  sails  Aug.  1,  but  it  has  been  de- 
cided, owing  to  the  urgent  necessity  of 
getting  reinforcements  to  China,  to  have 
the  Haniook  make-  a  special  trip.  Shv> 
will  carry  stores  and  provisions  only  for 
the  troops  in  China.  The  2.1eade,  on  the

the  Fifteenth  infantry,  cne  s.Tuadron  of 
the  Third  cavalry,  and  one  company  of 
engineers  from  West  Point;  in  all,  1171 
men  and  60  officers. 

The  Garonne,  carrying  two  squadrons 
of  the  First  cavalry  and  100  recruits,  3.5 
officers  and  950  men.  will  .sail  fro-n 
Seattle  the  same  day  for  Nagasaki. 

The  place  of  the  Hancock,  which  was 
originally  scheduled  to  sail  Aug.  16.  will 
be  taken  by  the  Warren  if  8h:=!  arrives 
at  San  Francisco  in  time.  She  will  lake

MESSAGE  FROM  TUAN. 

Tells  of  the  Pek]n  Ministers  Being 
Seen  Aiive, 

Washington,  July  2a.— The  state  de- 
partment made  public  the  following: 

"The  state  departm.ent  has  received 
a  dispatch  from  Mr.  Goodnow,  the  con- 
sul general  at  Shanghai,  dated  today, 
saying  that  Prince  Tuan  wires  that  an

the  ministers  on  the  18th;  that  none  was 
injured,  and  that  no  att.ick  at  that  time 
was  being  made.  He  does  not  say  to 
whom  the  dispatch  of  Prince  Tuan  wa.s 
addressed,  and  it  is  to  a  certain  extent 
at  variance  with  the  dispatch  of  Mr. 
Conger  of  that  date,  describing  the  le- 
gation as  being  under  fire  at  that  time.

Wafthlnffton.  July  23.— The  state  de- 
partment was  the  center  of  interest  on 
the  Chinese  situation  today.  Secretary 
Hav  was  at  his  desk  by  9  o'clock  and 
for  an  hour  was  busily  engaged  with 
a  matter  of  such  Impoi-tance  that  he 
declined  to  be  Interrupted  by  anj'one. 
About  10:15  tfne  Chinese  minister  ar- 
rived and  was  with  Lhe  secretary  for 
some  time.  On  the  departure  of  the 
minister  the  department  gave  out  the 
imperial  edict  of  the  Chinese  govern- 
ment, the  substance  of  which  had  been 
previously  made  known. 


The  state  department  has  re- 
ceived a  deluge  of  dispatches 
from  all  quarters  of  the  globe 
relating  to  the  Conger  message. 
These  show  the  attitude  of 
foreign  governments.  Without 
exception  the  official  view  taken 
by  all  foreign  offices  is  that 
the  di.spatch  Is  not  genuine, 
and  does  not  afford  a  basis  of 
action.  This  incredulity  ig  also 
vshared  by  T'nlted  States  Con- 
sul General  Goodnow.  at  Shang- 
hai, who  has  communicated  to 
the  state  department  his  dis- 
belief in  the  authenticity  of  the 
mes.sage. 


The  text  of  these  several  messages  is 
not  made  public,  as  they  are  inconclu- 
sive and  do  not  add  anything:  in  the 
way  of  definite  news  to  the  situation  at 
Pekin,  the  entire  tenor  being  one  of 
doubt  and  suspicion.  The  official 
doubts  are  based  on  various  theories. 
One  of  them  is  tSiat  the  deceotion  was 
practiced  by  the  tsung  11  yamen  itself. 
Still  another  is  that  it  emanated  from 
a  high  Chinese  official — a  man  holding  a 
position  like  that  of  Sheng  or  Prince 
Tuan,  the  latter  being  at  the  head  of 
the  anti-foreign  element,  and  at  last 
accounts  connected  with  the  Lsung  li 
yamen. 


Notwithstanding  this  flood  of 
doubt  from  foreign  official 
quarters,  the  state  department 
has  not  varied  its  position  as 
to  the  authenticity  of  the 
message.  Secretary  Hay's  posi- 
tion being  now,  as  it  always  has 
been,  that  there  is  every  proba- 
bility of  the  genuineness  of  the 
message,  although  always  a 
possibility  that  a  fraud  may 
have  been  perpetrated.  But, 
as  against  this  remote  possi- 
bility. Mr.  Hay  feels  that  there 
is  absolutely  no  motive  f<>r  the 
perpetration  of  such  a  mon- 
strous deception. 


The  Wa.shington  government  Is  un- 
shaken, therefore,  in  its  position  on  the 
message,  while  the  rest  of  the  world 
has  made  it  known  to  this  government 
that  this  message  is  not  accepted  as 
coming  from  Conger  on  the  18th  in- 
stant. 

Concerning  the  proposition  of  media- 
tion made  to  the  United  States  by 
China,  the  state  deoartment  was  not 
nreDared  today  to  make  any  statement. 
it  was  surmised  that  Mr.  Hay  was  en- 
gaged in  considering  the  government's 
answer,  which  would  probably  be  de- 
livered to  Minister  Wu  later,  but  no 
statement  of  the  cour.se  as  to  i^rocedure 
could  be  obtained  in  any  official  quarter. 
As  communication  will  be  reciuired  be- 
tween Washington  and  the  president,  it 
is  hardly  likely  that  the  answer  will  be 
forthcoming  at  once. 

Bot!i  the  state  and  Chinese  offlciais 
took  occasion  early  in  the  day  to  deny 
a  report  that  plans  were  on  foot  toward 
the  delivery  of  Mr.  Conger  by  the  CM- 
nese  authorities  to  Admiral  Remey  at 
Tien   Tsin. 

There  is  reason  to  believe  that  thr- 
government  is  again  using  every  effort 
to  secure  communication  with  Minister 
Conger  and  this  time  to  get  an  answer 
from  our  minister  which  will  be  so  con- 
clusive as  to  remove  any  shadow  of 
doubt.  In  this  connection  it  was  re- 
ported today  that  Minister  W'u  vester- 
day  sent  another  cipher  cable  dispatch 
to  Minister  Conger,  but  there  is  a  strong 
disinclination  in  official  quarters  to  dis- 
cuss the  various  steps  being  taken 
while  they  are  still  in  an  Inconclusive 
form. 


MISSiONARjES;^  WELFARE. 

Danger  Is  Reported  Increasing  at 
Foo  Chow. 

New  York,  July  23.— The  Presbyterian 
board  of  foreign  missions  today  received 
the  following  cablegram  from  Che  Foo: 

"Situation  unchanged.  Shan  Tung 
governor,  Che  Foo  taotai,  publish  in;-

eigners. Christians.  People  Pekin  alive. 
Trying  through  governor  to  get  word  of 
Paoting-Fu,  where  foreigners  in  Yamen 
supposed  to  be  safe.  TOWLER." 

Rev.  Dr.  Arthur  J.  Brown,  one  of  the 
.secretaries  of  the  board,  commented  on 
the  dispatch  as  follows: 

"We  do  not  known  any  man  named 
Towler,  and  we  l|naginc  the  signature 
should  be  Fowler.-  All  our  missionaries 
l^ft  Che  Foo  for  Korea  or  Japan  some

asked  Consul  General  Fowler  to  keep 
our  board  informed." 

The  Methodisd  Foreign  Missionary  so- 
ciety, of  New  Yterk,  today  received  the 
following:  cable: 

"Foo  Chow.  July  21.— Danger  increas- 
ing.   Missionaries  leaving.      "LACY." 

In  response  to  the  cable,  the  secretary

gees to  get  away.

AN  EDICT 
ISJSSUED 

Chinese    Ijovernment  Com- 
mands irhat  Foreigners 
Be  Protected. 


CLAIMS  TO  BE  PAID 


Payment    Promised  Except 

In  the  Case  of  Tien 

Tsin. 


Washington,  July  21.— The  state  de- 
partment makes  public  the  following 
text  of  an  edict  delivered  today  by  Mhi- 
ister  Wu  to  Secretary  Hay.  This  is  the 
edict  referred  to  by  United  States  Con- 
sul Fowler  at  Che  .Foo  in  his  message 
received  here  j'esterday: 

"An  Imperial  edict  Lssued  on  the  1st 
day  of  the  Sixth  moon  (July  17>,  trans- 
mitted by  the  Viceroy  Li  Kun  Yih  on 
July  20,  and  received  by  Minister  Wu  on 
July  L'l  at  7  o'clock. 

"The  present  conflict  lietween  China 
and  the  foreign  powers  had  its  origin  in 
the  long  standing  antagonism  between 
the  people  and  Christian  missions.  The 
subsequent  fall  of  the  Taku  forts,  pr<-- 
cipitated  the  meeting  of  force  with 
force.  The  imoerial  government  having 
due  regard  to  the  importance  of  interna- 
tional intercourse,  still  refused  to  go  so 
far  as  to  interrupt  the  existing  i-ela- 
tions.  We  have  already  repeatedly 
issued  detrees  providing  for  the  protec- 
tion of  the  foreign  legations,  and  also 
cionmanded  the  provincial  authorities  to 
protect  ml.ssionaries.  Inasmuch  as 
there  is  still  m-  cessation  in  the  employ- 
ment of  force,  foreign  merchants  and 
sulijects  residl  ig  in  China,  who  form  a 
numerous  body  in  the  country,  should 
be  protected  x^'ithout  di.itinctioii.  We 
hereby  commaiid  all  the  Tartar  generals, 
governor  geni'rals  and  governors  of 
provinces  to  look  after  the  foreign  mer- 
chants and  missionaries  living  in  the 
open  ports,  prefectures,  departments  and 
districts  under  their  respective  jurisdic 
tions,  and  to  afford  them  due  protection 
In  accordance  with  the  treaty  stipula- 
tions without  lail. 

Last  month  we  heard,  with  profound 
astonishment  and  regret,  t)f  the  killing 
of  the  chancellor  of  the  Japanese  lega- 
tion, Mr.  Akiro,  and  the  same  fate  befell 
the  German  minister  shortly  afterward. 
The  violent  removal  of  the  German 
minister,  whose  residence  at  the  capital 
was  necessary  to  the  transaction  of 
business  ^between  the  two  countries, 
affected  us  very  deeply.  It  Is  the  duty 
of  the  author!  -les  concerned  to  cause 
st/ingent  ordets  for  the  .speedy  arre.si 
and  punishment  of  the  murders  to  h-: 
carried  out. 

"Since  the  commencement  of  the  at- 
tack on  Tien  Tsin  there  are  foreign  sub- 
jects and  missionaries  who  have,  on  ac- 
count of  local  disturbances,  suffered 
death  or  loss  of  property  through  no 
fault  of  their  own.  We  hereby  command 
the  governor  of  Pekin  and  the  viceroy  of 
Chih  Li  to  cause  investigations  to  \«^ 
made  by  their  respective  subordinates  of 
all  such  claims,  except  those  ari.sinsi 
from  the  said  attack,  with  a  view  to 
their  ultimate  .settlement. 

"Moreover,  local  outlaws  and  rebel- 
lious subjects  iiave  of  late  given  them- 
selves up  to  barnlng,  killing  and  plun- 
dering, to  the  great  disquiet  of  our  loya! 
subjects.  This  is  an  utter  defiance  of 
law.  We  hereby  command  the  said 
governors  general,  governors  and  coni- 
n'anders  of  oui  forces  to  investigate  the 
situation  and  to  take  su:'h  measures  for 
the  punishment  of  the  offenders  and  res- 
tcration  of  ordc  r  as  the  necessities  of  the 
case  demand.  AVe  hereby  comm.ind  this, 
oui"  general  edict,  to  be  made  kno\vn  for 
the  information  of  ail  it  may  concern. 
Respect  this." 

A  significant  statement  in  the  above 
edict  is  noted  in  that  passage  which  di- 
rects an  invest  gation  of  all  claims  "ex- 
cept those  arising  directly  from  the  said 
attack  (attack  on  Tien  Tsin).  with  a 
view  to  their  ultimate  settlement." 

This  appears  to  make  plain,  not  only 
that  the  Chinese  government  will  settle 
claims  for  actual  losses,  but  that  it  has 
now  formally  decreed  an  exception  of 
those  claims  arising  directly  from  *'ue. 
attack  on  Tien  Tsin.  It  seems  lo  indi- 
cate that  the  Chinese  government  hcdds 
that  the  attac^t  on  Tien  Tsin  wa;--  un- 
warranted. 

LA  CROSSEJS  FATED. 

Another    SsYBre  Electrical   Storm 
Does  Damage  There. 

La  Cros.=?e,  W.s.,  July  2:i.— Another  of  a 
series  of  electrical  storms  of  phenome- 
nal severity  which  have  occurred  In  this 
vicinity  for  a  week  past  struck  the  city

known  seed  mun,  was  struck  by  light- 
ni.ig  and  dama::ed  to  the  extent  of  $10.- 
OOO.  Much  damage  was  done  to  crops  in 
this  vicinity,  h£y,  wheat  and' oats  suffer- 
ing considerably. 

SELONUEOJO  GATES. 

Some  Property  That  Jester  Had 
Near  Wichita,  Kas. 

New  London.  Mo..  July  23.— Alexander 
Jester's  trial  for  the  alleged  murder  of 
Gilbert  Gates  entered  Its  third  week  to- 
day. A.  M.  Martin,  of  Indiana,  swore  that 
he  first  met  Jester  at  Webster,  Ind.,  and 
accompanied  a  party  headed  by  Jester 
overland  to  the  Jester  farm,  near  Wichi- 
ta, Kas.  Witness  described  the  properly 
Jester  had.  much  of  which  corresponded 
with  the  proper  y  of  Gilbert  Gates.  Near 
Fort  Scott,  Kas..  Jester  burned  a  trunk. 
This  trunk,  the  prosecution  believes,  be- 
longed to  Gates. 

R.  V.  Martin,  of  Indiana,  who  accom- 
panied the  par::y,  corroborated  Martin's 
testimony. 

Joseph  H.  Thompson,  of  Richmond,  Ind., 
testified  that  Jester  and  his  two  teams 
stopped  at  his  home  In  1871  and  stayed  for 
a  week.  Thompson  said  that  after  Jester 
left  he  found  some  grain  sacks  In  the 
barn  bearing  th  ?  name  of  A.  A.  Gates.

FIRE  IN  ST.  PAUL. 

Big  Cold  Storage  Warehouse  and 
Contents  are  Burned. 

St.  Paul,  July  2C.— In  some  as  yet  un- 
known manner  the  St.  Paul  Cold  Stor- 
age and  Warehouse  company's  large 
warehouse  on  Eagle  street  caught  fire 
tiday  and  at  10  o'c-^lock  seemed  to  be  com- 
pletely destroyed,  together  with  its  valu- 
able contents.  The  loss  is  estimated  at 
$750,000,  with  an  Insurance  of  $550,000. 
Until  three  years  ago  the  concern  was 
C.  B.  Thurston  &  Son.  but  at  that  time 
was  reoreanized  under  the  new  name. 
The  warehouse  was  filled  completely 
with  butter,  fruit,  tobacco,  eggs,  tea, 
whisky  and  other  commodities.  Pare 
of  the  building  collapsed  at  a  few  min- 
utes after  10  o'clock  and  the  attention 
of  the  firemen  had  to  be  devoted  to  pre- 
venting the  spread  of  the  flames,  al- 
though fortunately  the  large  building 
was  almost  alone  on  the  block,  occuov- 
Ing  most  of  It.

bois has  returned  home  from  the 
Pocatello  convention.    He  says: 

"A  fusion   between    the   three  parties 

in  the  state  is  absolutely  assured.  The

ticket  and  support  the  Democratic  and 
Silver  Republican  ticket.  'Success  in 
the  state  is  certain.

HAVE  FAITH  IN  HILL 

Effort  Being  Made  to  Prevent 

Clasli  Between  (lie  Two 

Factions. 


From  Thf  Htraid 

Wishin^lon  Bureau. 

WashinRton,  July  23.— (Si^eciai  to  The 
Herald.)— Information  coming  direct  to 
Washington  from  NcW  York  fore- 
shadows a  Democratic  victory  in  that 
stale  in  Novemi>er.  pn>vidf»d  that  for- 
mer Senator  Hill  and  Richard  Croicer 
give  the  Bryan  ticket  honest  support. 
It  is  not  doubled  hy  Democrats  iiere. 
especially  those  at  Democratic  head- 
quarters*, that  Senator  Hill  will  make 
goad  his  promise  ai  Kansas  City  and  do 
whatever  li.s  in  his  power  to  bring 
about  the  sucee.;-s  of  the  national  ticket. 
tht-  state  ticket,  ami  in  att-'inpting  to 
carry  a  majority  of  the  i-cmgressionai 
districts  in  the  Kmy-ire  state. 

It  will  only  l>e  throuyh  the  nehemes 
of  Croker  that  the  defeat  "f  the  Demo- 
crats can  »>e  brought  alnut  in  New  York 
in  Novembf!-.  If  the  boss  of  Tammany 
hall  should  attempt  to  carry  everything 
with  a  high  hand,  there  is  a  bare  po.s- 
sibility  that  Hill  would  have  to  resent 
this,  and  in  such  an  event  the  split 
might  prevent  that  state  being  carried 
by  Bryan  and  Stevenson  and  also  a  loss 
of  the  governorship  to  the  Republican 
as  well.  It  is  believed  here  that  former 
Senator  Hill  is  anxious  to  have  Elliott 
F.  Danforth  put  at  the  head  of  the 
state  ticket,  but  it  is  not  positively 
known  whether  Mr.  Danforth  would 
accept  if  assured  that  he  could  se<ure 
the  nomination.  It  is  a  certainty  that 
he  would  be  Senators  Hill's  choice  if  he 
would  a.cept.  and  as  Mr.  Danforth  is 
both  friendly  with  Hill  and  Croker  his 
selection  for  the  governorship  will  pio- 
bably  prevent  a  serious  split  in  the 
party  in  that  state. 

The  Democrats  do  not  appear  to  think 
that  Senator  Hill  will  use  a  kuife  in  the 
campaign  this  fall  unless  absolutely 
forced  to  do  so  by  Croker.  wlio  is  not 
at  all  tru:-ted  \>y  the  Democrats  outside 
of  Tammany  hall.  Every  effort  is  be- 
ing made  to  pievent  any  clash  between 
the  two  Democratii-  factions  in  New- 
York  state,  and  if  this  result  can  be 
brought  about  its  electoral  vote  will  go 
to  Bryan  and  Stevenson,  which  a.ssures 
their  ejection  beyond  a  possible  doubt. 
It  also  means  that  the  state  gevemment 
will  be  in  control  of  the  Democrats  after 
January  1.  next  and  that  a  good  many 
Democrats  will  occupy  seats  in.^tead  of 
Republicans  in  the  lower  house  of  con- 
gress from  New  York.  As  a  matter  of 
fact,  it  is  believed  that  if  the  Democrats 
carry  this  state  for  the  presidential 
ticket  and  the  governor.«hip.  enough 
congressmen  will  l>e  gained  to  a.ssurp  a 
Democratic  majority  in  the  lower  house 
of  the  Fifty-seventh  session. 


Then  there  are  the  street  railway  post- 
offices,  in  which  mail,  collected  by  the 
carriers  and  forwarded  from  the  stat- 
ions, is  assorted  ready  to  be  placed  on 
the  outgoing  trains  by  the  time  the 
street  railway  mail  car  reaches  the 
railroad  station,  and  also  care  where 
the  carriers  deposit  their  mail  as  they 
collect  it  from  the  boxes.  Inside  cities 
the  carriers  collect  the  mall  from  boxes 
off  the  route  of  the  railway  mall  car  and 
deposit  it  in  a  large  box  at  a  convenient 
place.  When  the  mail  car  passes  this 
box  the  clerk  jumps  out.  collects  the 
mail  from  the  box.  places  it  in  the  car. 
and  the  car  goes  on.  In  some  cities 
where  the  service  is  especially  good, 
mail  is  arranged  in  the  cars  for  the  out- 
lying routes  as  the  car  goes  from  the 
postoffice  toward  the  suburbs.  By  the 
time  it  reaches  the  suburbs  the  mall 
has  been  assorted  according  to  the 
route?  and  the  car  is  met  at  different 
points  by  the  carriers,  each  of  w  hich  re- 
ceives his  bundle  of  mail  and  distributes 
it,  making  his  collections  at  the  same 
time,  and  by  the  time  the  car  returns 
he  is  ready  to  deposit  the  mail  collected 
and  get  another  bunch  for  delivery. 

Mr.  McAllister  has  sought  to  obtain 
recognition  from  the  department  for 
having  been  the  first  to  propose  the  idea 
of  the  street  car  system.  This  credit 
probably  properly  belongs  to  Civil 
Service  Commissioner  Harlow.  who, 
when  he  was  postmaster  at  St.  Louis, 
was  the  first  to  demonstrate  the  pos- 
sibilities of  the  street  railway  mail 
svstem.  Under  Second  Assistant  Post- 
master Neilson  the  service  was  greatly 
e.  lended.  Mr.  Neil.«on  was  so  much  Im- 
pressed with  the  utility  of  the  service 
that  from  his  efforts  to  extend  the  ser- 
vice it  became  known  as  "Neilson's  fad." 


A  NARROW 
ESCAPE 

Details  of  Collision  Between 

tlie  Campania  and  a 

Barit. 


DYNAMITE  IN  CARGO 


For  a  number  of  years  the_  postoffice 
department  has  had   before  it  the  plan 
of  George  D.  McAllister  for  utilizing  the 
street  car  service  of  the  large  cities  for 
the  collection  of  mail.    While  it  is  con- 
ceded     that   there  are  valuable      sug- 
gestions in  his  scheme  it  is  regarded  as 
impracticable,  for  the  piesent  at  least. 
It  should  be  remembered  that  in  every 
large  city  the  street  car  systems  are  n'^w 
utilized  in  connection  with  the  mail  ser- 
vice.    Pouches   are    transported    by   the 
cars  and  wherever   it  is  considered  ad- 
vantageous  special   mail  cars  are   run. 
in    which    the   clerks    assort    the   mail:^ 
stamp  the  letters,   distribute   them  and 
perform  all  the  duties  of  railway  mail, 
cierks    in    railway    postoffices    in    the 
steam    railroad.     Mr.    McAllister's    plan 
contemplates  the  placing  of  letter  boxes 
on   all   the   stieet    i  ar.s   in   the  country. 
This,    so    the   department    officials    say, 
is    out    of    tlie    question.     Few     peo-jl^* 
board  cars   with  letters   to   mail.     Kven 
if   they    knew    th;it    by   boarding    a   car 
they  could  deposit  their  letter  and  save 
a    few   minutes  in  getting  them   to  the 
postoffice   there   are   very   few    persons 
who  would  care  to  pay  care  fare  for  the 
l>rlvilege.     A    man    wanting    to    mail    a 
letter    would    naturally    prefer    to    droj) 
it  in  a  street  box,  from  which  there  are 
frequent    deliveries,    rather    than    wait 
at  a  corner  until  a  car  came.  Thoard  It 
and    pay   his    fare    for   the   privilege   i»f 
mailing  his  letter  or.  the  car.-    It  would 
be  out  of  the  que.-'tion  to  ask  the  street 
car  companies  to  ;n ^p  t'neir  cars  to  allow 
people  to  mail  their  letters. 

The  street  car  service  is  already 
utilized  by  the  dt  I'artment  for  the  trans- 
mission of  the  mails  in  several  ways. 
Pouches  are  sent  from  the  main  office 
to  stations  by  the  street  cars  and.  when- 
ever p^'SsiMe.  the  stations  are  !o<'Mttit 
i,n  th"  street  car  liaes  for  this  purpose. 

ABSOLUTE 
SECURITY- 


Roumanians  are  emigrating  to  the 
I'nited  States  in  such  large  numbers  as 
to  make  their  treatment  by  the  im- 
migration authorities  a  serious  problem. 

Assistant  Secretary  of  the  Treasury. 
Taylor,  has  made  a  special  trip  to  New- 
York  to  consult  with  Immigrant  In- 
spector Fritchie  and  to  look  into  the 
character  of  the  Romanian  emigrants. 
He  says  that  the  emigrants,  as  a  class 
are  not  desirable.  They  carry  passports 
which  allow  them  to  depart  from  their 
own  country  with  the  stipulation  that 
they  shall  not  return,  and  they  are  only 
passed  through  Germany  under  bond  to 
make  sure  that  none  of  ihem  stop  there. 
Most  of  tho.-^e  who  have  arrived  have 
been  admitted  under  bond  that  they  will 
not  become  public  charges  within  one 
vear  after  landing. 

The    treasury    officials    are    informed 

that    'M.WXi    of    these    Roumanians    are 

I^reparing  to  come  to  the  United  States. 

and  they   are  anxious  to  stem  the  tide 

as  far  as  possible.     Assistant  Secretary 

Taylor  said  recently  that  he  would  send 

an  official  of  the  service  lo  Romaina  to 

make  a  report  on  the  whole  subject  and 

to    do    everything    possible    to    prevent 

undesirable  emigrants      coming  to   the 

Ignited  States.     "The  Romanians  who  are 

at   present   in   this  country   are  said   to 

be  opposed    to   the   admission   of   many 

of  their  countrymen  now  coming  for  the 

rea.son  that  they  are  of  such  character 

that  there  is  danger  that  many  of  them 

will    be    unable    to    support    themselves 

and  will  be  a  charge  upon  their  more 

fortunate  countrymen  who  are  here  and 

engaged  in   business.

In  view  of  the  increasing  efforts  in 
the  United  States  to  find  new  markets 
for  products,  the  importnat  items  of 
freight  and  insurance  rates  should  re- 
ceive more  attention  from  all  those  in- 
terested in  the  export  trade.  Dealers 
abroad  often  receive  catalogues  and  of- 
fers of  g"ods.  and  apply  to  the  consular 
office  for  information  regarding  rates 
of  freight  and  insurance.  Cases  exist 
in  which  manufacturers  in  the  United 
States  have  asked  the  European  cor- 
respondent to  quote  the  freight  from 
the  United  States  to  the  port  of  arrival. 

All  goods  are  not  classed  alike  as  re- 
gards freight,  but  chambersof  commerce 
and  commercial  associations  could  have 
the  different  kinds  of  products  classed 
so  as  to  Indicate  whether  they  are  to  be 
charged  by  ton  measurement  of  by 
weight.  As  the  rates  to  Mediterranean 
ports  do  not  vary  much,  an  occasional 
quotation  in  the  commercial  newspapers 
would  be  of  great  utility.  Manufacturers 
could  then  add  to  their  catalogues  "for 
Mediterranean  ports  our  goods  are 
freighted  as  class  A  or  class  B." 

There  should  be.  at  the  head  of  the 
printed  table,  a  summary  description 
of  the  goods  entering  into  each  class. 
Thus  persons  receiving  catalogues  could 
at  a  glance  and  with  much  saving  of 
time  make  up  the  cost  of  goods  c.  i.  f. 
and  gain  an  idea  as  to  the  i)Ossibility 
of  business.  Rates  of  insurance  do  not 
veary  greatly  and  catalogues  might 
also  contain  the  rate  to  the  different 
ports.  In  fact,  there  is  no  reason  why 
catalogues  should  not  contain  a  pro 
forma  invoice  of  goods.  If  a  page 
of  a  catalogue  were  dedicated  to  an  in- 
novation of  this  kind  in  tabulatecl  form, 
manufacturers  might  quote  a  pro  forma 
invoice  of  goods  .say  from  New  York  to 
Hamburg.  Bremen.  Harve.  Cherburg. 
Bordeaux.  London.  Liverpool.  Glasgow, 
Marseilles.  Genoa,  or  Naples. 

J.  S.  VAN  ANTWERP. 


Bark  Carried  Enougli  Explo- 
sives to  Blow  tlie  Cam- 
pania to  Pieces. 


New  York,  July  23.— The  Herald's 
London  corre.«^j)ondent,  describing  the 
Campania-Embleton  collision,  says;  Dr. 
J.  Warren,  a  pas.senger  from  New  York, 
said  that  he  looked  out  of  his  stateroom 
porthole  when  he  heard  the  crash.  In  a 
moment  he  sa  »v  the  wrecked  ship  sliding 
past  the  Campania,  and  he  rushed  on 
deck.  All  was  confusion  on  the  decl:. 
The  Campania's  passengers  had  rushed 
out  of  their  staterooms  without  dress- 
ing. 

"Women  were  in  hysterics, "  he  added. 
"I  saw  two  sailors  of  the  wrecked  bark 
clinging  to  an  overturned  lifeboat.  TUey 
vsere  two  of  tiiuse  saved.  Five  otmers,  I 
am  told,  wen»  found  together  clinging 
to  a  spar.  When  we  struck  the  bark 
the  waoden  topmast  began  to  fall.  The 
lookout  in  the  crow's  nest  thought  the 
whole  mast  was  going.  He  jumped  for 
his  life  into  the  sea.  He  was  picked  ud 
by  a  lifeboat.  The  apprentice  boy  from 
the  bark  told  me  that  lois  captain,  upon 
rushing  on  deck,  said:  Every  man  for 
himself.'  The  Norwegian  jumped  from 
the  bow  of  the  bark.  He  was  undoubt- 
edly crushed  in  the  collision. 

"This  boy  also  said  it  was  a  miracle 
the  Campania  had  not  been  blown  to 
pieces.     The  boy  said: 

"  'Wc  were  carrying  a  lot  of  dynamite 
and  gunpowder  to  New-  Zealand.  Our 
cargo  of  explosives  was  distributed  for>; 
and  aft.  She  was  struck  amidshin.s. 
Had  the  collls-ion  occurred  eit'ier  fore  or 
aft,  the  Campana  would  surely  have 
been  destroyed.'  "

Filipino  BsiDral  Asserts  ths  Admiral 
Promised  Indspendenof. 

Sioux  Falls,  S.  D.,  Jijly  23.— A  letter 
has  been  received  by  Senator  R.  F.  Pet- 
tigrew  from  one  of  the  leading  comman- 
ders of  the  Pilipino  army,  giving  addi- 
tional light  on  the  claims  of  the  Filipino 
lieople  as  to  the  understanding  that  was 
arrived  at  between  them  and  the  Ameri- 
cans before  the  opening  of  hostilities  in 
the  I-hillpplnes.  The  letter  says  in 
i)art : 

"Sinukwan  Encampment.  Philippine 
Islands,  April  12,  1900.— Hon  U.  F.  Petii- 
grew  and  G.  F.  Hoar,  Senators,  '.Vash- 
ington:  Gentlemen:  I  have  read  in  some 
American  papers  that  Admiral  Dewey, 
compelled  by  you  and  other  senators  1 1 
answer  whei!;ci  he  had  made  to  us  a 
formal  promise  of  Independence,  slate', 
that  he  had  ptver  promised  independence 
to  the  Fllininos.  I,  who  in  the  name  of 
the  Filipino  people  and  of  Gen.  Aguln- 
r.ldo  have  had  the  honor  to  confer  sev- 
eral times  with  the  adn.iral,  mako  to 
you   the  following  statements: 

"In  April,  1898.  when  the  runture  of 
hostj'ities  betv. ten  America  and  Spain 
became  imminent,  and  in  the  absence  of 
my  chief.  Gen.  Agutnaldo,  w-ho  was  then 
at  Singaport.  I  solicited  througn  the 
American  consul  at  Hong  Kong.  Mr. 
Wildman,  to  have  some  interviews  with 
Admir.ii  Dewey,  with  the  object  of  con- 
tinuing the  negotiations  between  Aguin- 
aldo  and  Admiral  Dewey,  tl'.rou.c:;i  Mr. 
Wood,  the  commander  of  the  Vmerican 
gunboat  Petrel.  My  petition  was  favor- 
ably received,  and  I  went  with  Andres 
Garchoterna.  another  Filipino,  on  board 
the  Olympia  in  the  bay  of  Hong  Kong. 

"Once  on  board,  the  following  inter- 
view in  French  took  place  through  the 
flag  lieutenant,  Mr.  Brumby,  acting  as 
interpreter: 

"FiliDin J— Admiral,  it  having  come  to 
our  knowledge  that  a  war  between  your 
country  and  Spain  is  imminent,  we, 
who  have  foug«it  the  latter  for  our  in- 
dependence, are  wiUing.  in  obedience  to 
the  desires  manifested  by  you,  to  Gen. 
Agulnaldo.  through  Mr.  Wood  to  take 
:art  In  the  war  as  allies  of  .\merica.  so 
long  as  it  be  carried  on  with  the  oliject 
of  freeing  from  the  yoke  of  S^ain  her 
colonies,  giving  them  their  indenen- 
dence. 

••Admiral  Dewey— The  American  peo- 
ple, champions  of  liberty,  will  undertake 
this  war  wltr.!  the  humanitarian  objert 
of  freeing  from  the  Spanish  yoke  the 
peonies  under  it,  and  will  give  indeoen- 
dence  and  freedom,  as  we  have  pro- 
claimed to  the  world  at  large. 

"Filipino— We   are    very    grateful 
this  manifestation  of 
can  people  and  being 
admiral  of  their  navy 
than  a  written  contract,  and  thereuoon 
place  ourselves  at  your  entire  dispos" ' 

"Admiral  Dewey— I  place  at  your  dis- 
posal the  shins  of  my  fleet  for  the  con- 
veyance of  both  Filipino  leaders  and  the 
arms  you  may  get.  More  iver.  I  think 
my  government  is  willing  to  supply  you 
with  arms  and  ammunition. 

"Filipino— We  are  very  thankful  to 
you  for  this  new  generosity  of  the  Amer- 
ican people,  and  you  may  be  sure  that 
we  are  readv  to  fight  at  your  side  f  jr 
the  independence  of  the  Philippines,  even 
without  arms,  as  you  have  done  during 
the  recent  revolution. 

"Admiral  Dewey— America  is  rich  in 
every  respect  known.  She  has  territories 
sparsely  inhabited.  Besides,  our  con- 
stitution prevents  territorial  extsansion 
outside  of  America,  therefore  the  Fili- 
pinos may  be  sure  of  their  independence 
and  not  a  bit  of  their  land  shall  be  taken 
from  them. 

"After  the  conclusive  and  formal 
statements  the  conversation  turned  to 
other  details  of  the  state  of  the  coun- 
try." 

The  letter  is  signed  "J.  Alejandrino.

TIED  DOWN, 

Amorican  Athlotos  Shacklod 

With  Heavy  Handicaps 

at  Paris. 

Paris.  July  23.— The  world's  amateur 
championship  contests  in  connection 
with  the  Paris  exposition  came  to  a  con- 
clusion' yesterday.  Comparatively  few 
Americans  attended,  owing  to  the  fact 
that  only  three  or  four  of  their  country- 
men were  announced  to  compete  in  the 
events,  for  the  most  part  handicap.?,  in 
which  the  Americans  had  received  'lo  i 
severe  treatment  to  iemr)t  them.  Six 
events  were  decided.  The  Americans 
competed  in  three  and  won  one,  their 
only  success  of  the  day. 

The  program  opened  with  the  110 
meters  huixile  race.  A.  C.  Kraenslein. 
rnl versify  of  Pennsylvania,  being  made 
the  scratch  man.  As  the  other  Ameri- 
cans who  entered  were  all  pulled  back, 
all  declined  to  run.  Rau,  a  German, 
with  a  20-meter  allowance,  won:  Pritch- 
ard,  with  8  meters,  was  second,  and 
Klingthoefer,  Frenchman,  with  14 
meters,  led.    Time  18  1-5  seconds.

Namss  off  iha  Ten  M«n  Killed— 
Thr«e  Slightly  Injured, 

Hibbing.  Minn.,  July  23.— The  names 
of  the  ten  men  killed  by  the  exnlosion 
in  the  underground  powder  hjuse  at  the 
Clark  mine  are  as  follows:  J.  E.  Maker,

Tho<5e  injured  only  received  a  severe 
shaking  up  by  the  concussion  and  are 
not  seriously  hurt.  When  found  Hon^o 
and  P)ass  were  both  lying  on  top  of  the 
ore  which  caved  in  from  the  roof  of  the 
mine  near  the  powder  room.  J^ere 
were  no  marks  <m  their  bodies  and  it  is 
quite  evident  that  they  wandered  tl"ere 
after  the  explosion  and  were  overcome

A   Robber  Fatally  Shot  at 

Ishpeming— Range  News 

Rotes. 

Islipeming— Albert  Pearce,  aged  19, 
shot  Isaac  Harila,  a  Finlander.  They 
met  at  the  Cleveland  location  at  ll::iO. 
Harila  attempting  to  "hold  up"  Pearce. 
Two  shots  were  fired,  both  taking  effect, 
one  in  the  right  breast,  the  other  in  the 
left  ICilgh.  Pearce  was  arrested  two 
hours  later  and  admitted  his  guilt,  but 
claimed  to  have  shit  in  self-defense. 
The  hearing  was  set  for  next  Wednesday. 
Harila  will  die. 

At  the  Ropes  gold  mine  they  are  wait- 
ing for  two  Woithington  pumps  before 
they  can  start  the  work  of  treating  the 
tailings.  The  pumps  cannot  have  the 
brass  fittings  of  the  usual  patterns, 
ttiese  having  to  i>e  replaced  witn  Iron, 
and  this  has  caused  the  delay,  the  parts 
havinir  to  be  secured  frim  the  foundry. 
Everything,  with  this  exception,  is  ready 
for  the  start,  even  to  the  putting  up  of 
nctices  warning  the  employes  and 
others  not  to  drink  the  water  from  the 
tanks  where  cyanide  of  potassium  is 
used,  it  being  a  deadly  poison.  Every 
precaution  (has  been  taken  ti  prevent  ac- 
cident of  this  kind. 

The  annual  report  of  the  Calumet  & 
Hecla  company  for  the  tiscal  year  end- 
ing April  30  shows  a  balance  of  cash  and 
copper  on  hand  of  $4,260,S.')S. 

President  Agassiz  says  in  his  rei>ort  to 
stocklioldei-s: 

••During  the  past  year  we  prinluced 
mineral  equal  t>  44.548  tons  of  refined 
copper.  Our  product  in  refined  conper 
was  4'-\312  tons.  For  the  previous  year 
our  refined  copper  product  was  44,450 
tons.  There  have  been  paid  during  the 
fis«al  year  four  dividends  of  $20  each. 

Houghton— At  tSne  Trimountain  mine 
No.  1  shaft  is  d  nvn  268  feet.  A  new  35- 
drill  compressor,  similar  to  the  one  pur- 
chased for  the  Centennial,  will  be  in- 
stalled at  the  Trimountain  within  ?. 
month.  A  boiler  plant,  canab^e  of  sup- 
plying the  compressor  and  doing  all  of 
the  hoisting,  is  being  completed.  The 
Copper  Range  lailroad  will  soon  be  ex- 
tended across  the  property. 

Surface  improvement  at  the  Centen- 
nial has  lately  been  receiving  consider- 
able attention.  A  stone  building  to  re- 
ceive a  new  35-drill  compresssor  is  about 
completed.  This  compressor  will  take 
tlhe  place  of  three  small  ones,  of  the 
old-fashioned  type,  which  have  hereto- 
fore been  used  on  the  property.  Steam 
from  the  central  power  house  has  been 
piped  to  the  compressor  house  and  also 
to  the  stamp  mill,  and  hereafter  the 
comoaov  will  be  able  to  economize  ex- 
penses considerably  by  operating  a 
single  nower  plant.  The  removal  of  th' 
boilers  from  Uiie  mill  will  greatly  re- 
duce   the   danger   of   fire   in    the   latter 

building.  ,     .,^        ,  .  ,    „..,, 

A  ti-cstle  is  being  built,  whic-i  \n  ..I 
make  possible  the  direct  delivery  ot 
coal  from  the  railroad  and  do  away  witn 
the  use  of  hand  shovels.  All  of  llies.- 
improvements  have  been  made  with  a 
view  t3  economizing  the  cost  of  produc- 
ing copper.

!th  Boarti  of  Trade.  July  23.— The 
:  market  started  out  weak  anil  Io'.v..r 
th-s  morning,  rallied  sharply  on  some  buli- 
isli  news  whii-h  induced  the  shorts  at  C'hi- 
caRO  to  cover,  and  then  slumped  off  aKaln. 
The  opening  weaknessi  was  due  to  ihe 
failure  of  the  foreign  markets  to  respond 
to  Saturdays  advance  in  this  country;  in- 
stead of  a  rise.  Liverpool  was  ^''il^v  low- 
er. Another  bearish  influence  wa.s  found 
in  the  world's  shipments,  which  were  very 
heavy,  Ru?s^an  and  Danubiafi  port.*  a'.oiie 
eiintributiiiK  U.:Oi,<»i*t  l»us.  The  early  rally 
was  caused  by  a  story  that  tnc  remaiuilr-r 
f>f  the  Dakota  crop  had  been  destroyed  oy 
hut  windii.  but  this  story  wa.s  n.^t  5Us- 
iainrd  an.l  the  markt-t  turned  weak  aii;aiii. 
After  dei  liiiinff  about  Ic.  the  mark*  I  ruled  j

k  Woman  Dtscribts  thi  Pieasuras  of 
tho  Capital. 

Housekeeping;  here  is  not  what  it  is  in 
the  I'nited  States,  writes  a  Cai>e  Town 
correspondent  of  the  Boston  Transcript. 
There  are  not  the  conveniences  and  com- 
ferts  here  that  the  people  in  the  L'nited 
States,  of  evi  n  very  moderate  salaries,  en- 
joy. Supplies  for  the  house  are  never 
brought  the  day  on  which  they  are  ordered, 
unless  one  s  home  is  very  near  to  a  sJiop. 
And  there  are  so  many  holidays  on  whicti 
nothing  will  be  delivered  that  one  is 
obliged  to  provide  beforehand  for  them, 
>\hen  they  occur  on  Monday  it  is  very  dis- 
agreeable to  keep  meat,  etc..  from  Satur- 
uay  till  Tuesday  morning. 

But  in  spite  of  any  drawbacks,  life  here 
is  very  deiigntful.  indeed,  and  we  have  en- 
joyed every  bit  of  tne  two  years  of  our 
residence  with  iJeople  who  are  among  the 
most  agreeable  m  the  world  socially.  They 
are  genial,  kind  and  hospitable,  and  society 
here  is  equal  to  that  in  any  city  many 
times  the  size  of  Cape  Town.  While  tliere 
are  no  women's  clubs,  thtre  are  lectures, 
concerts  and  theaters,  and  good  troupes 
Come  out  from  England  eacn  winter.  In 
the  sumnur  there  are  tennis  and  garden 
parlies,  musicals  and  afternoon  leas.  And 
all  summer  there  are  plenty  of  races  in 
!  on.  or  two  of  the  suburbs,  to  whlcii  so- 
I  cieiy  goes.  We  forgot— there  is  one  dub 
!  whitJi  is  doubtless  very  important  to  its 
i  members,  the  Cape  Hunt  clus.  We  think 
Its  m  mbers  are  principally  English  ptople. 
There  are  plenty  of  '?iubs  just  now  start- 
ing up,  Lut,  alas  they  are  all  for  relief  of 
sulTering.  either  among  the  wounded  or  the 
refugees  from  the  Transvaal.  Neither 
lime  nor  money  is  spared  In  this  good 
work.  There  is  but  one  interest  in  cape 
'I'own  now,  it  would  seem,  and  thai  is  for 
iirws  from  the  war.  Three  months  ago 
this  town  was  supposed  to  nave  a  popula- 
tion of  5o,OUO  white  people,  and  now  there 
have  been  added  upward  of  2;j.«.»x>  more. 
It  looks  as  if  it  was  holiday  ench  day. 
It  is  said  that  the  shops  are  doing  an  ex- 
( ellent  l)usiness.  And,  by  the  way,  these 
shops  are  as  flne  as  those  in  any  ordinary 
I  it\-  of  the  Cnited  States.  Their  display  of 
Koods  is  handsomr.  valuable  and  often  ex- 
nuisiie;  all  imported,  of  course.  It  gives 
one  a  strange  feeling  to  think  that  nothing 
is  manufactured  here,  no  home  pro<luci  to 
speak  of,  just  fruit  and  vegetables  and  a 
little  furniture. 

The  majority  of  houses  here  are  of  one 
story,  and  the  old  ones  are  th?  old   Dutch 
farm    houses,     very     otld,     many     having 
thatched  roofs,  some  with  grass  and  moss 
j  growing  on  top.    There  are  some  very  an- 
i  cieiit   houses,  one  of  which  Is  a  little  old. 
■low  building,  caled  "Ye  Old-Time  Tavern. 
1  And  that  is  rxai-ily  what  it  looks  like,     it 
,  p'Mjple  do  not  object   to  thatched  roofs  on 
account  of  the  danger  of  Hre.  they  usually 
are  glad   to  gel  one.  as  the  rooms  are  so 
large   and   high,    and   the   whole   house    so 
roomy.    Some  have  the  old-fashioned  flag- 
stones  in   the  front   yard.     They   all    have 
the    tiny    panes   of   glass    in    the    windows, 
unless  they  have  been  modernized. 

Ah.  but  in  summer  this  place  is  a  para- 
dise, for  there  are  more  consecutive  days 
of  sunshine  and  lovely  blue  sky.  and.  more 
lovely  still,  deep  blue  sea.  than  any  spot 
we  have  heard  about.  Pe<)ple  who  like  to 
grumi)le  complain  of  the  "souiheasier"  of 
the  summer.  It  is  a  very  strong  southeast 
wind  that  carries  clouds  of  sand  and  often 
gravel  through  the  air.  so  that  one  must 
Wear  a  veil  to  protect  the  eyes  when  going 
out.  What  the  men  do  without  these  use- 
ful articles  we  cannot  imagine.  However, 
We  do  not  mind  such  a  little  thing  as  that, 
when  the  sun  is  shining  so  beautifully 
and  the  air  growing  softer  all  the  time, 
the  supide  trees  waving  back  and  forth,  as 
green  as  green  can  be,  and  over  all  the 
clear  blue  dome.  Well,  Cape  Town  people 
l;cive  never  seen  a  Kansas  cyclone,  so  th»  y 
make  the  most  of  the  "southeaster."  They 
ha\'-  two  uses  that  ought  to  r.'v"o:icile  any 
one  of  them.  When  it  is  cold  and  rainy, 
if  the  wind  changes  to  southeast  the  sun 
onies  out  and  we  have  warm  woat;i  r; 
then,  again,  when  it  gets  very  hot.  if  a 
souiheasi  wind  blows  it  becomc-j  coder 
and.  above  all.  thjs  wind  is  named  "the 
cape  doctor."  as  it  blows  away  from  se.-i 
t)  sea  all  microbes  and  germs  or  ui'y  r.i- 
feclious   matter. 

And  ih.  climate  or  temperature  of  Cape 
Town   in   summer     is     simpiy     perftctlon. 
There   is   nothing   to   be   desir'='d.    it   s.-ems 
to  us.    The  days  are  nearly  one  unbroken 
sunshine,  not  the  "eternal  noonday"  of  the 
old    hymn,    but    just    deligrhtful    sunshine 
that  you  may  depend  upon  if  yoj  wish  to 
have  a  day's  outing  or  expect  visitors  who 
could   not   venture  out   in   rainy    w.'tther. 
\\  e  found  that  fact  of  ihe  reliability  of  tlie 
iviiiiher   a    great    comfort    we    must    >.wo

minutes  time  a  boat  was  goin?  astern  ,n

men, but  we  soon  concluded  that  al- 
though he  was  not  visible  he  must  be 
more  than  a  mile  astern.  After  the  boat 
had  been  out  about  five  minutes  the 
weather  became  so  thick  we  could  not 
see  three  times  the  length  of  the  ship. 
We  put  about  and  went  in  the  direction 
the  man  had  fallen  in.  We  could  find 
ncthing  of  the  boat,  which  had  lost  its 
beari-ngs  and  gone  off  on  the  wrong 
t.Tck.  While  scarchi;ig  for  either  the 
boat  r,r  the  man,  we  spied  him  swim- 
ming in  the  water  with  a  flock  of  alb:i- 
t'oss  pecking  at  him  and  making  his 
already  bad  circumstances  anything  but 
iomfortable.  We  were  so  clo.se  on  him 
we  had  no  time  to  lower  away  a  boat 
liefor^  passing  him.  so  we  lowered  a 
rope  from  the  main  rigginp  and  swung 
him  to  the  deck.  There  l.s  not  one 
*  hance  in  a  hundrej  th.it  this  feat  could

"You  may  well  imagine  our  aslonish- 
ment  when  we  found  that  although  he 
had  been  swimming  fcr  forty-five  min- 
utes, he  had  on  heavy  clothing,  a  suit  of 
oil  clothes  and  a  pair  of  lubber  boots.  I

AN  ARMY  MTNE  MARCH. 

Thi  Ordor  in  Whloh  a  Brnisb  Colnmn 
Advanooa. 

A  British  column  advancing  in  time  of 
war  through  an  enemy's  country  is  at 
once  a  magnificent  and  a  remarkable 
spectacle;  or  rather,  to  be  quite  correct, 
it  would  be,  provided  the  eye  could  take 
in  all  the  details  at  a  single  glance. 

But  this  is  just  arecisely  what  the  eye 
cannot  do.  A  column  of  even  moderate 
strength,  when  on  the  move,  lengthens 
itself  out  abnormally;  so  much  so,  in-- 
deed,  that  a  body  cf  troops  which  in  re- 
view  order  could   be  packed    within   a 

moderate-sized  paraae  ground  will  oc- 
cupy ribbonwi.se  eight,  ten  or  even  more 
.niies  of  country. 

We  will,  therefore,  take  up  a  position 
on  an  eminence— a  kopje,  if  you  like— 
and  watch  in  imagination  a  column  of 
British  regulars  marching  on,  say,  Pre- 
toria, says  the  London  EJxpress. 

First  there  will  come  in  sight,  riding 
at  a  walking  pace  athwart  the  bolder- 
strewn  veldt,  a  solitary  pair  of  horse- 
men. These  are  the  advance  points,  as 
they  are  termed,  and  are  thrown  for- 
ward perhaps  a  mile  ahead  of  the  van- 
iTuard.  They  are  on  the  lookout  for  the 
enemy,  and  on  the  first  hint  of  danger 
it  is  their  duty  to  ride  back  to  left  and 
rignt  ari  alnrm  tie  fl  'n^er«^. 

These  latter  are  thrown  out  fanwise 


STREETT    ML'SICIANS'    TRUST. 

An  jbservine  citizen  who  has  made  a 
study  of  New  York  street  musicians  says 
thev  have  divided  the  city  into  section.«( 
and  trganized  a  trust,  says  the  New 
York  Sun.  One  class  of  these  itinerants 
appears  within  certain  boundaries  one 
week  and  then  gives  way  to  another 
class  the  week  following,  so  that  no 
community  has  the  same  music  all  the 
time. 

One  Neapolitan  who  has  a  repertory  of 
oneratlc  numbers  and  a  musical  box 
constructed  on  the  pipe  organ  principle 
appears  in  such  parts  of  Tapper  Mandat- 
tan  as  are  occupied  by  people  who  an- 
Dreciate  classical  music.  He  is  never 
seen  cutside  of  the  territory  mentioned. 
"Whenever  he  appears  windows  go  up 
in  the  block  and  he  is  the  recipient  of  a 
s.hower  of  nickels  and  cents.  He  has  a 
fine  face,  is  always  neatly  dressed,  and 
his  a'^knowledement  of  favors  is  as 
gracelui  as  the  most  exacting  could  wish 
for. 

The  "little  German  band  "  so  numerous 
in  Brooklyn  has  not  been  seen  in  the 
streets  of  Manhattan  for  some  time,  but 
by  an  "arrangement"  with  the  "trust" 
and  janitors,  the  t(X)ter!»  go  into  the 
courts  of  buildings  and  blow  until  thev 
are  winded.  The  citizen  who  has  ob- 
tained this  information  says  the  receipts 
are  pooled  and  divided  usually  every  two 
weeks,  but  on  what  basis  he  has  not 
been  able  to  learn. 

One  of  the  trust  is  a  fiddler  with  one 
leg.  When  he  takes  his  place  in  front  of 
a  house  he  lays  down  his  crutch,  and 
balancins  himself  on  his  single  under- 
pinning, he  maintains  his  equipoise 
while  he  saws.  He  is  an  American,  and 
his  dress  of  black  broadcloth  is  of  the 
old  conventional  cut  seen  in  the  South 
before  the  civil  war. 

One  of  the  members  of  the  trust  savs 
New  York  gives  more  money  to  thes-e 
strolling  musicians  than  any  European 
city. 


New  York.  July  23 —Declines  in   Ameri 
can  securities  in  London  were  ignored  at  | 
the  opening  of  the  stock  market  here.  The 
exceptions  to  the  gains  were  unimportant. 

Sugar   was   in   large  demand   and  rose  a,  from  the  cavalry,  which  screens  the  in- 
point.    The  Pacliics  and  Louisville  were  the  •  fantry  vanguard,  and  they  in  turn  pass 
most    prominent    ni    the   railroad   list,    but    the  word  back  alone- the  tmilintr    «nake 
there    was    no     great    activitv    outside    of    J^^       .^r^  "^     ,^'^"^  i'^^  "^'""^'  ^".^^V 
Sugar.      Pronounceil    strength    was    mani- 1  ''"^'^   ribbon    of   armed    men,    till    within 

'  half  an  hour,  say,  of  the  enemy's  being 
first  sighted  the  entire  command  knows 
of  the  threatened  danger  and  is  pre- 
pared to  deal  with  It, 

The  two  advanced  points  have  been 
well  likened  to  a  couple  of  electric  but- 
tons, which,  on  being  touched,  thrill  the 
alarm  d3wn  both  flanks  throughout  the 
entire  length  of  the  column  with  whicn 
thev  are  in  communication.  The  simile 
is  not  quite  perfect,  however,  for  the 
alarm  is  sounded  by  these  living  electric 
buttons  while  yet  the  danger  is  remote. 
Some  hundreds  of  yards  in  the  rear  of 
the  cavalry  screen  comes  the  advanced 
guard,  sub-divided  into  a  vanguard  and 
a    mainguard.      This    latter    constitutes 

ancing 
course. 


fesied  in  certain  stocks  of  individual 
groups.  For  instance.  St.  Paul  was  strong 
in  the  grangers.  Southern  Pacific  led  in  the 
Pacifies;  leather,  the  industrials;  Tennes- 
see Coal,  the  steel  groui),  and  Metropolitan  ■ 
Street  Railway,  the  tractions.  Their  gains' 
reached  a  point  or  better.  In  other  stocks 
there  were  .some  sympathetic  gains.  Sugar 
did  not  hold  its  opening  raise  and  its  re- 
action of  a  point  ciiecked  the  advancing 
tendency  elsewhere.  Continued  absorption 
of  Tennessee  Coal  carried  it  up  4^  and  in- 
duced a  better  demand  for  steel  stocks, 
some  of  which  gained  a  point  .  People's 
Oas  rose  to  near  101,  and  rBooklyn  Transit 
gained  l'*.  but  only  a  few  of  the  railroads 
recovered  to  the  best.  Quite  a  large  num- 
ber of  inactive  stocks  were  lifted  from  1  to 
2V2.     Bonds  were  quiet  and  irregular.

FROM    ANCIENT   BABYLON. 

It  is  now  three-quarters  of  a  century 
since  Mr.  RicCi,  traveling  in  the  East, 
visited  Kurdestan.  Mosul  and  Baghdad, 
and  succeeded  in  collecting  a  few  frasr- 
ments  of  antiquities  from  the  mounds 
so  bt»untifully  scattered  over  the  valley 
of   the    Eurihrates. 

These  he  placed  in  the  British  Mu- 
seum, and  thus  formed  a  nucleus  of 
what  is  now  one  of  its  most  important 
and  most  interesting  departments,  says 
the  London  Daily  Mail. 

The  rearrangement  of  the  antiquities 
in  the  Babylonian  roam  at  the  .'Jriti.'^s' 
Museum,  and  the  exhibition  of  many 
new  and  important  records  bearing  on 
the  hi.^tory  and  civilization  of  ancient 
Babylon,  is  a  welcome  evidence  that  the 
museum  has  not  been  unmindful  of  its 
dutv  in  the  endeavor  to  obtain  a  fair 
share  of  these  important  relics. 

A  n6W  and  somewhat  significant  col- 
lection of  large  documentary  clay  tab 
i  lets,  in-scribed  with  official  (or  temple) 
record.^  of  legal  and  business  matters 
transacted  ?M0  years  before  Christ,  is

rironortionate  to  the  strength  of  the 
force  it  is  covering.  With  it  are  field  and 
machine  guns,  sappers,  miners,  en- 
gineers, ambulances,  reserve  ammuni- 
tion wagons  and  so  forth.  In  fact,  th? 
advance  guard  of  a  large  column  con- 
stitutes in  it.self  a  fighting  force — a 
miniature  army,  so  to  speak,  complete  in 
nractically  all  esi?ential  details.  After 
the  advance  guard  has  passed  we  shall 
probably  see — emerging  from  the  clouds 
of  dust  which  always,  except  in  wet 
weather,  envelop  as  with  a  mantle  a 
column  on  the  march — another  solitary 
nair  of  horsemen,  and  then  at  intervals 
another  and  yet  another.  These  are  tlte 
connecting  links.  A  half  troop,  or  per- 
haps, if  the  force  is  a  large  one,  a  whole 
trocn  of  cavalry  will  come  next,  then 
more  connecting  links,  and  lastly  the 
officer  commanding,  surounded  and  ac- 
companied by  his  staff.  The  uninitiated 
in  matters  military  will  now  expect  to 
see  the  main  body  of  the  army:  but  no. 
A  single  infantry  battalion,  or  maybe 
two,  will  perhaps  pass,  marching  strict- 
ly "to  attention,"  bayonets  fixed,  and 
officers'  swords  carried  naked  at  the 
slope;  after  which  there  will  heave 
slowly  into  sight  an  apparently  endless 
train  of  field  artillery,  machine  guns,

The  Fiorida-Roby    Collision 

Gasi9  Goes  to  Court  of 

Appeals. 


Chicago.  July  28.— The  new  tugrnon's 
union  which  was  organized  last  wlnUr  is 
proving  itself  a  much  more  conservative 
body  than  most  of  the  labor  organisations  ! 
around  the  lakes.  Some  time  ago  a  tug 
captain  wis  discharged  by  the  Great 
Lakes  Toving  company  on  ihe  charge  of 
drunkenness  while  on  duty.  The  dis- 
charged man  threatened  a  general  strike 
all  around  the  lakes  if  he  were  not  rein- 
stated. He  appealed  to  the  union  to  back 
him  up.  ;nsiead  of  going  on  strike  the 
union  decided  10  trv  its  member  on  tiie 
charge.  Last  Friday  night  he  was  fouod 
guilty  and  was  fined  forty-two  days'  mem- 
bership ai  d  $5.  The  case  has  att»i.cted 
much  attention  on  the  river,  as  it  was  tne 
first  time  ihe  new  union  had  come  up 
against  the  <iu«^stion  of  discipline,  and 
the  results  of  the  lest  are  highly  .;ai'..ifac- 
lory  to  marine  me  i.

REMARKABLE  RESCUE. 

Faat  af  a  Sailor  in  tha  Indian 
Ocaan. 

A  marvelous  story  of  life  saving,  and 
the  greatest  swimming  event  on  record, 
is  told  by  the  cantain  and  sailors  of  the 
ship  A.  J.  Fuller,  now  lying  in  Seattle 
harbor,  near  the  West  Seattle  shore, 
says  the  Seattle  Post-Intelllgencer. 
After  the  sailors  came  ashore  yesterday 
and  told  the  story,  it  was  handed  from 
mouth  to  mouth  until  it  reached  pro- 
portions that  sounded  very  improbable. 
An  investigation  of  the  facts,  however, 
proves  remarkably  skillful  management 
of  the  vessel,  the  officers  of  which  per- 
formed a  feat  that  could  hardly  l)e  re- 
peated after  a  hundred  efforts,  and  tho 
wonderful  swimming  of  a  sailor  whoso 
only  name  recorded  in  the  log  book  is 
Antonio.  This  man  left  the  vessel  in  the 
Orient,  deeming  his  voyage  sufficient 
educition  in  the  dangers  of  navigation. 
When  interviewed  last  night  aboard  the 
ship  Capt.  Nichols  said; 

"The  real  stoty  I  think  is  remarkable 
enough,  without  anyone  adding  to  It.  It 
occurred  while  we  were  on  .1  voyage 
f rt  m  Philadelphia  to  Japan.  We  were 
in  the  Indian  waters  on  Jan.  19.  at  3 
o'clock  p.  m..  in  latitude  43:20  south, 
longitude  40:50  east.  The  weather  was 
thick  and  drizzly,  with  a  northeast  wind 
driving  th.>  vessel  at  the  rate  of  seven 
knot--.  Through  s.oiTit  carelessness  a 
sailor  named  Antonio  fell  from  the  Jib- 
boom  cverboard.  He  had  scarcely  b«en 
in   the   water  a  minute  before  he  wa« 


PROVED  IT. 

Mrs.  Edith  Sessions  Tupper,  the  author, 
is  a  Vassar  graduate  and  a  daughter  of 
the  late  Congressman  Sessions  of  New 
York  state.  Probably  the  most  interesting 
trip  she  ever  took  was  through  the  Grand 
cmyon  of  the  Colorado  a  year  or  so  ago. 
She  made  the  acquaintance  there  of  Johi> 
Hance.  of  Arizona,  who  lives  In  the  can- 
yon the  year  round  and  who  knows  more 
about  It "  than  any  man  living,  says  the 
Saturd.iy  Evening  Post.  Hance  is  a  pictur- 
e.^que  character,  with  a  vivid  Imagination, 
and  this  Is  some  of  the  Information  he 
Imparted   to  the   tourist: 

"Captain.  "  Mrs.  Tupper  asked  one  morn- 
ing, as  they  sat  before  his  cabin  door 
on  the  rim  of  the  canyon,  "what  was  the 
greatest  peril  of  your  life?" 

Hance  considered  a  moment  and  then 
said:  "I  reckon  about  as  nigh  as  I  ever 
come  ter  going  ter  glory  was  when  my 
boss  jumped  1400  feet  Into  the  canyon 
with  me  on  his  back."  Then  he  eyed  Mrs. 
Tupper  reflectively  to  see  how  she  took 
it.  She  hesitated  a  moment  and  then  re- 
plied: 

"Of  course,  captain,  I  realize  that  I  am 
new  out  here,  but  you  cannot  expect  me 
to  believe  any  such  story  as  that." 

The  captain  rose  promptly,  and  leadinp 
his  \-lsitor  to  the  very  edge  of  the  preci- 
pice, demanded:  "Now,  then,  ma'um,  do 
you  see  suthln'  white  down  there  on  the 
trail?" 

Mrs.  Tupper  acknowledged  that  she 
did. 

"Well."  he  said,  with  an  important  grin, 
"that  there  white  pile  you  see  is  the  white 
bones  t)f  that  there  boss  of  mine  a- 
bleachin'." 

And  although  Mrs.  Tupper  knew  that 
the   pile   of   bleaching   bones   on   the   trail

ogeneous  procession  has  come  to  an  end 
that  the  thickening  of  the  dust  cloud  and 
the  measured  tramp. — tramp — tramp! 
herald  the  approach  of  the  infantry 
brigades.On  they  come,  rifles  at  the 
slope  or  at  the  trail,  talking,  laughing, 
joking,  singing,  smoking,  as  though 
wf.r  and  its  attendant  horrors  were  a 
thousand  miles  away.  On  they  come — 
and  still  on!  Battalion  after  battalion, 
brigade  after  brigade. 

It  becomes  almost  monotjnous  after 
awhile  for  the  mighty  fighting  machines, 
each  composed  of  a  thou.sand  or  more  in- 
dividu.'il  fighting  units,  swing  past  with 
tho  mectianical  precision  of  gigantic 
automata.  Everything  moves  as  if  by 
clockwork.  Thirty  paces  interval  is  the 
regulation  distance  between  battalions 
and  brigades,  and  thirty  paces  interval 
it  is — no  more,  no  less.  There  is  no 
slackening,  no  hesitancy,  for  all  the 
apparent  free-and-easlness.  A  company 
lags  but  a  foot  or  two;  it  is  spurred 
sharply  forward  by  a  biting  phrase — 
half  expostulation,  half  command— ut- 
tered by  its  captain.  A  battalion  does 
likewise;  and  a  wave  of  the  hand  from 
its  ever-watchful  chief  sends  the  ad- 
jutant galloping  down  the  right  flank, 
exploding  as  he  goes.  So  is  the  force 
kept  "sprunk  up."  And  a  very  neces- 
sary process  Is  this  same  stringing  un. 
The  loss  of  a  few  yards  at  the  head 
means  hundreds  at  the  tail.  Trivial 
check  to  the  front  of  a  long  column  is  a 
serious  delay  to  the  men  in  the  rear  of 
it,  and  continual  stepping  out  or  rapid 
closing  tends  to  exhaust  troops. 

With  the  passing  of  the  rearmost  bri- 
gade the  interest  to  the  average  s::>ec- 
tator  largely  vanishes.  True,  there  fol- 
low more  machine  guns;  more  tool  carts, 
ammunition  wagons,  lead  horses,  etc.. 
but  all  these  we  have  seen  before.  The 
bearer  companies,  with  their  trim 
stretchers  and  the  red  cross  of  Geneva 
showing  conspiciously  on  the  tunic 
sleeves,  arouse  a  brief  curiosity,  but 
they  are  out  of  sight,  swallowed  up  \u 
the  dust  cloud  almost  ere  we  realize 
their  presence.  If,  however,  we  care 
to  occupy  our  kopje  for  another  hour  or 
so  we  shall  see  yet  another  cloud 
dust    advancing     toward      us.    This

DENIAL  FROM  DEWEY.         f 

Says  Gan.  Alejandrlno  Daaa  Nat  Tall 
tha  Truth. 

Washington.  July  23.— The  letter  re- 
ceived by  Senator  Pettlgrew  from  one  of 
Aguinaldo's  generals,  J.  Alejandrino, 
containing  an  alleged  account  of  an  in- 
terview between  himself  and  Admiral 
Dewey  on  board  the  Oiynu)ia,  in  the 
bay  of  Hong  Kong,  in  April.  1898.  In 
which  it  is  stated  Admiral  Dewey  prom- 
ised independence  to  the  FilioinOB,  wa% 
shown  to  t*ie  admiral  today  by  an  Asso- 
ciated Press  reporter.  The  admiral 
characterized  it  a  "tissue  of  falsehoods." 
He  declared  it  absurd  on  Its  face. 

"I  not  only  had  no  j»ower  to  promise 
independence  to  the  Filipinos,  but  the 
whole  tenor  of  the  words  put  in  my 
mouth  stamps  them  as  false.  I  am  made 
to  say  things  which  I  never  thought  of, 
and  which  1  could  never  have  uttered. 
You  will  notice  that  I  am  addressed  in 
the  alleged  interview  as  "admiral"  when 
at  the  time,  I  was  a  "commodore." 

The  admiral  .said  he  had  never  heard 
of  independence.  Several  Filipinos, 
after  much  importuning,  did  come 
aboard  the  vessel  at  Hong  Kong.  They 
were  anxious  to  be  taken  to  Manilla. 

"1  considered  their  representations  <jf 
little  importance,  "  said  the  admiral,  and 
I  did  not  take  them  to  Manilla.  Later.  I 
gave  permission  to  Aguinaldo  and  about 
a  dozen  others  to  come  to  Manilla.  All 
that  they  were  anxious  alwut  at  that 
timeVvas  an  end  of  the  tyranny  of  Spain, 
against  whkh  they  had  beeii  fighting. 
AftcT  the  destjuctioh  of  Mcntejo's  fleet 
the  city  virtually  surrendered,  and  I  uni 
satisfied  that  If  we  had  had  ."iOtJO  troops 
there  at  that  time  v.e  could  h.ive  gone 
a.'^hore  and  been  received  by  the  Fili- 
pinos as  deliverers.  Th"y  "had  ab.*o- 
lutely  no  thought  then  uf  lndependen>>^. 
That  wa.5  an  afterthought  of  the  lead- 
ers, during  the  interim  between  the 
smashing  of  the  Spanish  fleet  and  the 
airival  of  the  I'nited  States  troops." 

.Speaking  of  the  report  :hat  Cuba  was  to 
be  evacuated  by  the  .American  troops  after 
the  holding  of  th.  constitutional  conven- 
tion. Admiral  Dewey  said  he  did  not  see 
how  the  I'nited  States  could  turn  over  the 
island  to  the  Cubans  until  a  stable  govern- 
ment had  been  established. 

"We  are  responsible  lo  the  world  for  the 
orderly  conduct  of  affairs  in  Cuba."  said 
he.  "and  until  such  a  government  is  es- 
tablished. 1  cannot  see  how  we  can  with- 
draw. We  are  confronted  with  a  similar 
situation  in  the  Philippines.  Thi"  world 
looks  to  us,  and  no  matter  which  i>oliticaI 
party  wins  in  November,  the  Cnlted  States 
cannot  r  linqulsh  the  islands  until  a  re- 
sponsible and  stable  government  Is  set  up 
thefe."

ANCIENT  BOOKS. 

Among  the  books  found  in  the  Mosque 
at  Damascus  is  a  scries  of  ten  books, 
written  In  a  beautiful  gilt  cuflc.  begin- 
ning with  the  smallest  sized  coran  ever 
seen,  and  ending  in  one  as  larce  as  the 
one  in  the  native  library  at  Cairo,  says 
a  Heyrout  correspondent.  Nazem  Pasha 
has  called  a  military  and  civil  committee 
and  made  them  take  an  oath  that  not  a 
single  piece  of  paper  Fhall  leave  the  room 
in  which  they  are  kept.  T.he  books  are 
kept  in  sacks  and  boxes,  and  every  even- 
ing every  member  of  the  committee 
must  fix  his  seal  to  these,  and  they  can- 
not be  opened  unless  all  the  members 
are  oresent. 

The  German  academy  entertains  great 
hopes  that  the  original  New  Testament 
may  be  there  too.  The  German  emperor 
has  written  to  the  sultan  on  the  subject, 
and  It  has  been  decided  that  a  German 
professor  shall  be  sent  to  Damascus  to 
trv    to  find    it. 


When  you  see  It  In  The  Herald  you 
can  rely  upon  It— that  it  is  news  up-to- 
date. 


CHINESE  OSCULATION. 

The  Chinese  consider  the  European 
method  of  kissing  a  most  horrible  pro- 
ceeding, and  ."should  there  by  any  chance 
he  a  reader  of  this  paper  of  the  Siime 
opinion,  he  or  she  might  like  to  take  a  les- 
son from  th<»  Monc-ollan  in  the  art.  says 
the  London  Dally  Express. 

The  Chinese  do  not  touch  each  other's 
lips  at  all:  the  nose  Is  brought  Into  light 
contact  with  the  hand,  cheek  or  forehead, 
the  breath  is  drawn  In  through  the  nos- 
trils, and  a  slight  smacking  of  the  lips 
brings  the  kiss  to  a  conclusion.

It   is   surprisicg   to 
Hepublirnni*       notice   a    number   of 
Mutt  Meutnln  on  usually  well  balanced 
the  UefeuMire,     newspapers     of     the 
Republican      per.^ua- 
tryiuu      I"     I"  r.saude     their     read- 
that"      the       currency       iiuestlon 
be      ilie      chief      issue       In       the 
that     the     trust   question  will 
not  play  an  important  pari  in  the  contest, 
and  that  the  issue  of  imperialism  will  not 
cut  any  figure  at  all.  It  Is  astonishing  that 
any  intelligent  editor  should  inllict   such 
nonsense   upon    the   portion  of   the   public 
that  reads  hi.s  articles.    Four  year^ago  the 
currency  question  was  the  chief ^.ssue   in 
the  campaign,   bi:t  no  one  has  sufficient 
power  to  resurrect  the  corps  this  year.  It 
was   prcper    that   the   currency   plank    of 
l.s<»>  should  be  reafflrmed  at  Kan.sas  City. 
iiut   there   ar.*   more   imp'Ttant   questions 
pressing   for  solution   now,   and   the  cur- 
rency question  will  not  be  prominent  be- 
cause the  American  people  refuse  to  have 
it  so.   For  the  present   It   is  popularly  re- 
garded as  an  academic  question.  The  bat- 
tle must  be   fought  out  on  the  issues  se- 
lected by  the  people.    Four  years  ago.  the 
liepubllcan  man.-igers  deluded  themselves 
in    the    belief   tliat    they    could   doi.ge    the 
money  que:'tion  and  make  the  trai^T   the 
paramount  l.s5ue.  When  they  realized  thoir 
mistake  It  was  unly  by  almost  superhuman 
txerlions    that    the    lost    ground   could    be 
recovered,   and   even   at   that    the   margni 
of  victory  was  small.     A  change  of  2r..'M) 
votes,    properly    distributed,    would    have 
elected  Mr.  liryan.  The  currency  question 
co^es  ay  far  from  appealing  to  the  ordi- 
nary mind   this  year  as  did   tlie   tariff  in 
1S9*5,    and    th«    McKinky    managers    will 
end  that  their  efforts  to  force  it  to  the 
frf>nt  represent  energy  worse  than  wast- 
ed.   From    the  very   fact   of  its   being   in 
power  the  Republican  i>arty  muFt  remain 
on  the  defensive  and  meet  the  attacks  of 
the    opp<^isltion    from    whatever    dlrectiou 
they  come.  If  the  Democrats  do  not  see 
fit  to  attack  the  Kepublican  financial  po- 
sition, the  administration  newspapers  and 
orators  will  render  little  service   to   their 
Iiarty  by  making  sorties  against  the  cur- 
rency windmill  while  the   Democrats  are 
a.osaulting   the   trust  affiliations   and   the 
imperiallstlr   tendencies   of   the  McKinley 
admini.straiion.    They    must    fight    where 
thev  are  attacked. 


IXCREASIXa  TME  CAM'ACITV. 

It  is  stated  that  at  the  next  session 
of  congress  a  proposition  will  be  ad- 
vanced by  the  United  States  engineer- 
ing department  looking  to  the  im- 
mediate enlargement  of  the  first  lock 
in  the  ship  canal  at  Sault  Ste.  Marie, 
known  as  the  Weitzel  lock.  It  is  the 
smaller  of  the  two  great  channels 
through  which  passes  the  commerce  of 
the  Nortrwest  and  is  600  feet  long.  The 
Poe  lock  is  100  feet  wide  and  SOO  feet 
long.  When  the  Foe  lock  was  completeti 
it  was  supposed  the  two  would  be  ample 
ti»  handle  all  commerce  that  could  fxis- 
sibly  aii.«e  on  the  lakes  for  the  next 
hundred  years,  but  now  it  is  absolutely 
necessary  that  there  be  twice  as  much 
room.  The  engineers  have  figured  that 
the  Weitzel  lock  must  be  increased  in 
width  to  more  than  100  feet  and 
lengthened  to  ir.00  or  1600  feet  and 
deepened  to  25  feet  over  the  sills. 
Authorization  for  this  work  will  be 
asked  next  winter  and  there  can  be  no 
doubt  that  it  will  be  granted  and  the 
nionuy  appropriated.  It  will  cost  $l».- 
000.000. 

So  great  has  been  the  Increase  In  size 
of  lake  .ships  that  the  Weitzel  lock, 
which  used  to  hold  four  or  five  of  the 
largest  vessels  at  one  lockage,  now  holds 
but  one:  while  the  Foe  lock,  big  as  it  is, 
has  capacity  for  but  two  of  the  largest 
size.  The  proposed  Weitzel  lock  will  !>« 
big  enough  to  pass  at  one  time  six  such 
ships  as  the  Gates,  Hill  or  Edenborn, 
with  their  500  feet  of  length  and  52  feet 
of  beam.  The  Foe  lock  of  today  is  pn 
the  site  of  the  canal  of  18,').')  and  the  new 
Weitzel  will  occupy  the  room  of  the 
lock  of  18«5. 

The  necessity  for  an  increase  in  the 
canal  capacity  at  the  Sault  will  he  ap- 
parent to  any  one  who  studies  the 
grov.th  of  Lake  Superior  commerce. 
The  total  freight  traffic  la.st  year  was 
2.=i,2."i.=;.lS0  tons,  an  increase  of  4.021.146. 
or  19  per  cent  over  that  for  1898.  The 
total  number  of  vessel  passages  amount- 
ed to  20.25.").  as  against  17.761  for  the  year 
1898,  an  Increase  of  2494,  or  14  per  cent: 
the  total  lockages  numbered  10.999, 
which  Is  1466  more  than  In  1898,  or  an 
increase  of  15  per  cent. 

Some  idea  of  the  great  increase  in  the 
cargoes  carried  by  the  lake  lioats  may 
be  gained  from  the  fact  that  last  sea.son 
344  different  vessels  in  a  single  trip  of 
each  carried  a  total  of  1,308,603  net  tons. 
In  one  single  day,  207,962  freight- tons 
were  passed  by  154  vessels,  whose  re- 
gistered tonnage  amounted  to  156,119. 
The  total  valuation  placed  on  the  freight 
carried  through  the  canal  in  1899  was 
$281,364,750. 

In  view  of  the  enormous  traffic  re- 
pre.sented  by  these  figures.  In  which  a 
large  and  important  section  of  the 
country  is  Interested,  there  should  be  no 
hesitation  on  the  part  of  congress  in 
making  the  appropriation  necessary-  to 
enlarge  the  capacity  of  the  Sault  locks. 
This  is  a  work  of  vastly  more  import- 
ance to  the  people  of  the  I'nited  States 
than  the  construction  of  an  isthmian 
canal  and  but  little  less  important  than 
the  opening  of  a  deep  waterway  from 
the  great  lakes  to  the  Atlantic  ocean. 


Gen.  Wallace's  talk  about  the  people 
voting  on  the  acquisition  of  territory  in 
future  is  ridiculous.  What  chance  will 
the  people  have  with  imperialism  fully  es- 
tablished and  the  blood.v  and  barbarous 
Philippine  precedent  acceptetl?  The  time 
to  .settle  this  question  is  at  the  polls  this 
year. 


The  death  lists  Gen.  MacArthur  has  been 
forwarding  from  Manltia  for  some  time  in- 
dicate a  death  rate  in  tho  army  there  of 
about  3  per  cent,  not  Including  those  dying 
on  transports  returning  home.  It  is  stated 
that  this  is  nearly  double  the  death  rate 
in  the  English  army  in  India.

The  reception  of  Li  Hung  Chang  from  the 
foreign  residents  at  Shanghai  was  not  en- 
thusiastic. Jt  is  said  the  people  there  dis- 
trust him.  Hut  hi'^  is  probably  more  de- 
serving of  trust  than  most  of  thi.  crowd  in 
Shanghai. 


The  figures  showing  that  our  exports 
during  the  past  .vear  were  targer  thtin

"Rememl)er  that  expansion  does  not

There  has  been  considerable  horror  oc-

burned  alive  in  this  country.

Vs'rit  on  a  ruined  palace  in  Kashmir: 
"The  end  is  nothing,  and  the  end  is  near." 

Where  are  the  voices  kings  were  glail  to 
hear? 

Where  now  the  feast,  the  song,  the  bay- 
adere? 

The  end  is  nothing,  and  the  end  is  near. 

And  yonder  lovely  rose;  ala.s,  my  dear! 
See  the  November  garden,  rank  and  drear; 
Tho  end  is  nothing,  and  the  end  is  near. 

See!  how  the  raindrop  mingles  with  tlie 

mere, 
Mark!  how  the  age  devours  the  passing 

year; 
The  end  is  nothing,  and  the  end  is  near. 

Forms  rise  and  grow  and  wane  and  dis- 
appear. 
The  life  allotted  thee  is  now  and  here; 
The  end  is  nothing,  and  the  end  is  near. 

The  death  sliroul  waits  thee,  and  the 

dark-pelled  bier. 
Alas,  sweet  eyes  and  bosoms  tender,  dear; 
The  tolling  bell,  the  dropping  earth  I  hear: 
The  end  is  nothing,  and  the  end  is  near. 

Then  vex  thyself  no  more  with  thought 

austere; 
Take  what  thou  canst  while  thou  abidest 

here. 
Seek  finer  pleasures  each  returning  year: 
The  end  is  nothing,  and  the  end  is  near. 


In  these  days  of  the  ".servant  girl 
problem,"  anyone  who  has  a  good  ser- 
vant in  the  house  is  in  luck,  and  he  is 
justified  in  going  to  almost  any  length 
to  retain  her  .services.  An  illustration  of 
how  the  situation  i.s  considered  in  most 
hou.seholds  is  furnished  Ity  a  recent  hap- 
pening in  a  Duluth  home.  One  night  the 
hou.se  happened  to  be  in  the  care  of  the 
son  and  daughter  of  the  family,  together 
with  a  young  woman  visiting  the  latter, 
the  parents  l)eing  away  and  the  gir! 
having  her  night  out.  About  10  o'clojk 
the  young  people  prepartnl  to  turn  in  for 
the  night,  and  in  a  well-meant  endeavor 
to  leave  everything  shipshape  for  th' 
nigjit  they  made  the  tour  of  the  iiouse, 
locking  every  po.ssible  means  of  en- 
trance.    Then  they  went  to  sleep. 

A  little  later  the  girl  showed  up  an<l 
tried  to  get  in.  Sh<!  pounded  the  doors  at 
every  side,  and  exhausted  every  effort  to 
make  her  way  in.  l?ut  the  young  people 
slept  soundly,  secure  in  the  thought  thai 
the  doors  were  all  well  locked,  and  that 
the  heads  of  the  house  were  not  expect- 
ed back  until  the  next  .morning.  They 
had  forgotten  all  about  Annie,  the  girl. 
Tliis  useful  though  forgotten  member  of 
the  hou.sehold  pounded  until  her 
knuckles  were  sore,  and  then  went  away 
in  a  huff.  Next  morning,  when  it  came 
breakfast  time,  the  young  people  re- 
membered Annie.  At  first  they  coui.l 
not  account  for  her  absence,  and  then 
they  remembered  that  she  had  gone  out 
the  evening  before,  and  they  realized 
what  had  happened.  Then  the  parents 
came  home,  and  there  was  a  row.  From 
what  they  knew  of  Annie's  .sensitive 
nature  they  realized  that  it  would  be 
difflcult  to  get  over  the  affront.  The 
young  people  were  .sent  to  look  her  up. 
and,  if  possible,  to  Induce  her  to  come 
back. 

They  had  not  far  to  look,  for  they 
found  her  at  the  home  of  her  married 
sister.  They  were  delighted  to  see  her, 
but  .«he  failed  to  respond  to  their  effu- 
sions. 

"Ay  no  come  back,"  she  said  coldly 
and  positively. 

"Aw,  please  come  back,"  said  the  boy, 
and  the  two  young  women  added  their 
entreaties.  The  girl  shook  her  head 
stolidly. 

"If— if  vou'll  come  back  I'll  keep  the 
woodi)ox  full  every  day."  promised  th(» 
boy.  ,  ,, 

"Ay  don't  t'ink."  said  Annie  scornfully 
and  sarcastically. 

"If  you  come  back  I'll  promise  never 
to  talk  back  to  you  again,"  said  th.^ 
daughter  of  the  house  persuasively. 

Annie  shook  her  head,  but  she  showed 
.'^igns  of  relenting,  and  after  half  an 
hour's  pleading  .she  at  last  gave  in.  She 
l)Ut  on  her  hat  and  accompanied  the 
triumphant  delegation  back.  There  she 
was  the  heroine  of  the  occasion  for  a 
time.

changed,  but  imperialism  and  mili- 
tarism, when  once  adopted,  would  be  a 
most  difficult  matter  to  get  rid  of 
again."  The  Free  Press  also  gives  a 
\ery  sensible  reply  to  the  attempt  of  the 
organs  of  imperialism  to  frighten  the 
Germans  by  holding  up  the  16  to  1  bug- 
aboo, paying: 

"The  claim  that  a  defect  In  the  Ger- 
man vote  would  not  appreciably  alt'.r 
the  result,  inasmuch  as  most  of  them 
are  Democrats  anyway,  only  emphasizes 
the  indifference  with  which  that  ele- 
ment Is  treated  politically,  and  besides 
gives  evidence  of  very  poor  Judgment  in 
matters  pertaining  to  political  expe- 
diency. The  adoption  by  the  Dcmorcats 
of  th  16  to  1  plank  alone  is  not  sufflelent 
to  obviate  sound  and  rational  arguments 
on  other  propositions.  There  is  a  pre- 
vailing impression  among  many  people 
that  expansion  Is  closely  connected  and 
almost  identical  with  imperialism,  and 
until  this  is  expla^fied  away  to  their  en- 
tire satisfaction  the  16  to  1  bugaboo  will 
cut  very  little  figure  with  them." 

This  is  a  significant  statement  by  a 
Republican  newspaper,  particularly  as 
the  editor  of  the  Free  Press  is  him.self  a 
German,  and  may  properly  be  regarded 
to  accurately  reflect,  the  .sentiment  of  his 
countrymen.  When  so  staunch  a  Re- 
publican throws  aside  his  party  preju- 
dice and  concedes  that  imperialism  is 
the  one  great  danger  that  threatens  the 
life  of  our  republic,  it  is  readily  appa- 
rent that  there  is  some  foundation  at 
least  for  the  claim  that  the.  Germkn- 
American  vote  will  not  be  cast  in  favor 
of  the  party  that  has  inaugurated  the 
policy  of  imperialism  and  militarism.

Pari^,  July  «.-( Special  to  The  Herald.) 
—Leaving  the  Zenith  City  on  June  fi,  bound 
for  the  Paris  exposition.  1  arrived  in  the 
capital  city  of  the  French  republic  Sun- 
day morning,  July  1.  In  time  to  preitare 
for  the  two  big  American  celebrations 
which  took  place  on  July  3  and  4.  Truly 
Paris  is  a  wonderful  city  to  visit  and 
doubly  so  at  the  present  lime  wiieii  the 
grand  exposition  is  in  full  progress.  The 
city  is  decked  out  in  its  best  and  every- 
thing presents  a  holiday  appearance.  To 
the  student  of  French  history  the  city 
alone  is  very  interesting  for  it  has  many 
historical  buildings,  famous  spots  and 
celebrated  monuments  which  were  erect- 
ed to  commemorate  various  epochs  in  the 
history  of  France.  I  will  leave  aside  llic 
great  show  and  Klance  at  some  of  these 
historical  places  *vhich  are  most  interesl- 
ins  to  all  readers  of  the  revolutionary 
history  of  France. 

The  Place  de  la  Concorde  Is  a  magnifi- 
cent   urea    and    one    of    the    finest    public 
squares   in    the   world.    It   is   situated    be- 
tween   the   Tuilieries      gardens      and   the 
Chamiis   Elvsees.    It   wa.s   formerly   called 
Place  Louis  XV  and  was  adorned  wi^i  an 
equestrian    statue    of    that    slothful    and 
worthless   monarch.    In  1770  a   lamentable 
catastrophe  occurred  on  this  square,  some 
hundreds    of    people    being       crushed    to 
death  in  a  great  crowd  assembled   to  see 
the  fireworks  on  the  occasion  of  the  mar- 
riage   of    the    dauphin    (afterwards    Louis 
XVI)   with    Marie   Antoinette   of  Austria. 
After  the  fall  of  the  monarchy  on  Aug.  10. 
1792,    the   statue   of   Louis   XV   was   taken 
away  and  melted  down  into  bronze  moi.cy. 
The  square  became  the  Place  de  la  Revo- 
lution,   and    here,    where    the    tall    obelisk 
stands,  was  set  up  the  guillotine  that  cut 
short  the  lives  of  so  many  victims  during 
the  fearful  year  and  a  half,  of  the  reign  of 
terror    from    January,    YiV,',,    to   July    1791. 
Kln>f    Louis    XVI,    his    cpieen,    Marie    An- 
toinette, his  sister,  and  chiefs  <if  the  vari- 
ous nolitical   parties,  all  came  in   turn   to 
bend"  their  heads  beneath  the  fatal  knife. 
The    i)romoier    (Jf    the    revolution.     Des- 
moulins.     Danton     and     Robespierre,     the 
chiefs  of  the  terror,    Bailly,   the  astrono- 
mer,   Corday.    the    enthusiast,       soldiers, 
priests   and    statesmen   made   up    the    2S00 
victims    who    all    fell    in    turn    under    the 
levelling  blade.   When  the   period   of  tem- 
pest   was    over    the    name    of    the    great 
s(|uare    was    changed    in    1739    to    that    ot 
I'lace      de   la   Concorde.       In   1814   it    was 
changed  again,  but  In  IS.%  it  became  again 
Place  de  la  Concorde  and  as  such  it  has 
continued    ever    since.    The    great    central 
monument  of  the  square  is  the  obelisk  of 
Lougsor.   an    Esfyption    monolith   seveuly- 
six  feet  high,  the  sister  stoncj  to  the  Cleo- 
patra's   needle    on    the    Thames    embank- 
ment. Two  beautiful  fountains  are  in. this 
scjuare  and  throwing  water  to  a  height  of 
nearly   thirty   feet  are  a   striking   feature 
of  the  place.  Across  the  river  is  the  cham- 
ber of  deputies. 

Proceeding  up  Rue  Royale,  a  large  build- 
ing built  in  the  form  of  a   Greek  temple, 
with    .1    splendid    colonado    around    it    of 
fiftv-two    Corinthian    i)iilars.     m.eets    the 
eve".  This  is  the  Madeline,   the  most  con- 
spicuous among  the  modern  churches  of 
Paris.   The  next  spot  of  interest  is  Place 
Vendomc.    In    the    center    of    the    square 
stands     the  Colonne  Vendome  erected  by 
order  of  Napoleon.   It  is  an  imitation  of 
Trojan's  column  in  Rome,  is  142  feet  high 
and   thirteen   feet   in  diameter.    Like  Tro- 
jan's column,  it  is  encircled  with  a  spiral 
band    commemorating    the    deeds    of    the 
militarv  chief.  The  bronze  covering  of  the 
Vendome    column    is    cast    from    cannon 
taken    from    the    enemy    and    records    the 
exploits  of  the  Austerlitz  campaign.   The 
summit   was   surmounted  by  a   statue  of 
the  emperor  and   in  1S14  this  was   taken 
down  and  a  Bourbon  device  set  up  Jn  its 
stead.    This  was  changed  again  for  Napo- 
leon.   During    the    communist    revolution 
this  column  vas  pulled  down  but  it  was  rc- 
erected    witli    the    bas-reliefs    and    statue 
complete.  The  next  place  of  historical  in- 
terest in  Paris  is  the  Place  de  la  Bastille. 
Hero,    until    the    close    of    the    eighteenth 
centurv.     stood    the    formidable    bastille, 
originailv  a  castle  for  the  defense  of  old 
Paris  against  the  English,  built  by  Charles 
V    In    1369    and    in    subsequent    times    the 
dreaded  and  hated  state  prison,  in  whicn 
many  persons   who  offended   the   despotic 
government  pined  away  forgotten  and  un- 
heeded.    W^hen    the    walls    of    Paris   were 
levelled  in  lfi70  the  liastille  was  left  stand- 
ing     Among  the  pri.soners  confined  there 
under    Louis       XIV    was    the    mysterious 
"Wan  with   the  Iron  Mask,"   whose  idon- 
titv  remained  one  of  the  puzzles  of  history. 
Oil  July  14.  1789,  the  bastille  was  attacked 
bv  a  crowd  of  determined  Parisians  who, 
iiifuriated   at   the  resistance  theyeiicoun

One  of  the  most  convenient  and  artisti- 
cally useless  ways  the  government  has  of 
spending  money  is  in  the  printing  of  rec- 
ords of  the  different  departments.  An  ex- 
ample of  it  is  In  the  civil  war  record, 
which  has  just  been  completed.  It  is  the 
largest  literary  work  ever  done  on  earth, 
comprising  128  octavo  volumes  of  100  pages 
each,  and  an  atlas  of  35  parts.  Of  thii; 
work  11,000  copies  were  printed  at  a  total 
cost  of  $2,'^,000.  To  what  practical  use 
such  a  publication  can  be  put,  which  is  at 
all  commensurate  with  the  coat,  it  is  hard 
to  see.

of  "food  for  powder"  he  used  up  during  his

four  mortars,  used  for  firing  salutes.    The

THE  EXCUR^SIONISTS. 

Leave  For  Thair  Homss  After  a  Day 
Delightfully  Spent. 

Tired  from  a  continual  round  of 
pleasure  and  amuse  nent,  but  satisfied  | 
with  what  they  had  seen  and  the  treat- 
ment afforded  them  liy  Duluth's  hos- 
pitality, over  a  thousand  of  the  excur- 
sionists that  came  or  the  Great  Northern 
Saturday  noon,  left  for  their  homos  at 
points  further  south  in  Minnesota, 
shortlv  after  «  o'clock  last  evening. 

From  early  morning  until  train  time, 
the  visitors  had  litvle  opportunity  for 
rest,  thev  were  up  here  to  see  Duluth, 
and' thev  saw  it  in  every  sense  of  the 
word.  All  dav  long  the  street  car  ser- 
vice and  the  Park  point  ferry  service 
were  taxed  to  care  for  the  big  crowds 
of  sightseers.  The  steamer  Estelle  was 
almost  overloaded  jvery  trip  to  and 
from  the  point  anci  the  Lake  avenue 
dock.  At  O-at-ka  beach  the  people 
from  the  inland,  wlo  have  few  oppor- 
tunities of  enjoying  the  lic^ach  and  lake 
breezes  that  Duluth  an'sareaccustotned 
to,  enjoyed  the  afte -noon  to  the  fullest 
extent.  At  the  Atditorium  the  City 
hand  rendered  a  fine  program  for  the 
enttn-tainment  of  th->  immense  crowd. 

The  excursion  to  Two  Harbors  and 
around  the  horn  were  well  patronized, 
many  delighted  expressions  beting  heard, 
especially  in  regard  to  the  latter  trip. 
The  Pavilion  and  the  parks  claimed  their 
share  of  the  visitors,  the  rush  to  Lester 


park  being  kept  up  until  long  into  the 
evening. 

With  all  the  crowd  there  is  not  one 
report  of  an  accident  or  disorderly  oc- 
curance  of  any  kind,  a  fac  t  that  speaks 
well  for  Duluth's  many  visitor.s. 

Patrick  Has  Wheels. 

Patrick  Savage,  a  raachinist,  was 
taken  in  custody  Saturday  evening 
for  creating  a  disturbance  at  the  corner 
of  Second  avenue  East  and  Second 
.•street.  For  sometime  past  he  has  acted 
strangely  and  only  rec  ently  he  notified 
the  police  department  that  he  was  going 
down  to  the  ship  canal  to  lake  the 
all  water  nmte  into  the  spirit  world. 
They  advised  against  it  and  later  he 
imagined  a  gang  of  thugs  liad  tried  to 
murder  him.  Saturday  evening  while 
walking  along  Second  street  he  startled 
every  person  within  hearing  by  calmly 
announcing  in  a  very  loud  voice,  that 
he  had  been  slabbed.  He  will  probaldy 
he  taken  before  the  pndiale  court  and 
examined  for  insanity.

The  railroad  company  has  refused  to 
■■■':•'  tht-  selectt»)n.<  lintil  the  spiri: 
s  them,  and  Mr.  Dunn  thinks  that 
I  uriity-iivf  years  i.*!  long  enough  time  to

are  not  made  liy  the  Duluth  &  Inn

ami  make  the  ."eleotion.s.  The  ol>ject  i.s 
to  get  the  grant  cleaned  up  with  as 
little  cost  to  the  st.Ue  as  jiossilile.  The 
stale  is  constantly  having  to  defend 
swamp  land  contest  cases  in  the  Duluth 
di.-trict.  and  the  litigati.m  is  rather  ex- 
liensive.  Hesides  this,  several  fither  rea- 
sona  obtain  why  it  i.s  de.sirable  for  the 
state  to  clean  up  iia  swamp  land  grants 
to  raitrt>ads. 

At  any  rate,  whether  the  companies 
like  it  or  no,  the  governttr  and  ?tate  au- 
ditor will  compel  them  to  make  selec- 
tions or  the  state  will  do  the  selecting.

;state  auditor  Saturday,  .say.": 

"That  the  legi.slatuie  had  the  power 
ti>  define  what  was  a  reasonable  time  for 
the  tiling  of  the  grant  seems  t  f  me  not 
open  U;  questi.jn.  especially  in  view  of 
the  congressional  legislation  of  the  same 
character  which  had  been  act  vuted  and 
acted  upon  by  all  departments  of  the 
guvernmenl  and  the  courts  as  a  legiti- 
mate exen  ise  of  legislative  power. 

■The  contention  of  the  Duluth  &  Iron 
Range  Railway  company  that  it  is  un- 
der no  obligation  to  select  its  land.=. 
within  a  given  time,  and  that  the  state 
had  no  power  to  fix  a  limit  within  whiih 
the  grant  should  bo  adjusted  is.  as  U 
seems  to  me.  little  less  than  ab.surd.  It 
involves  the  proposition  that  that  com- 
pany could,  if  it  saw  fit.  compel  the 
state  of  Minnesota  to  hold  its  entire 
.-,•.. trap  land  grant,  in  the  countiiL-  of  St 
1.  s.  Lake  and  Coi-k.  in  suspen.se  for 
lull  years  v.ithout  being  alile  to  dispose 
of  any  part  of  the  same,  or  subject  them 
to  taxation. 

-The  ntitice  which  you  propose  to  give 
the  corrpany  requiring  them  to  select 
their  lands  before  Sept.  1  next  is  not,  in 
my  judgment,  at  all  necessary,  as  you 
wonbl  have  the  right  to  award  them 
lands  to  which  they  are  entitled,  at  this 
time.  There  is.  however,  in  my  judg- 
ment, no  eiijectitin  to  this  course,  and  it 
( ertainly  removes  every  reason  for  com- 
plaint that  the  corporation  has  not  h.id 
ample  time  and  opportunity  t.>  select 
the  lands  to  which  it  is  entitled,  and  I 
would  tnerefore  recommennd  that  you 
notify  the  company,  as  suggested,  and 
in  vent  that  it  fails  to  act.  that  you 
ire  a  deed  immediately  after  Sept. 
•ivcying  to  them  the  balance  of  land 
to  which  they  are  entitled,  and  which 
will  pronn>tly  receive  my  signature.  I 
have  conferred  with  the  att'irney  gen-

A  GAME  APIECE. 

Duluth  Finds  Tiiat  Bayfield 

Knows  Something  of  the 

Gsme  of  Ball. 

In  two  intensely  Interesting  games  Du- 
luth and  Bayllelrl  brokt-  even.  On  Satur- 
day the  maroon  hu.«i.rifd  superbas  won  out 
easily  by  playing  a  tierce,  tlashing  game, 
yesterday's  was  one  of  the  bist  set-n  at 
Oiit-ota  park  Ibis  season,  but  unfortunate- 
ly the  IfM-al  men  were  compelled  to  enact 
the   roltf  of  victims. 

Until  games  were  well  punctuated  by 
wonilt-rful  stops  and  spectacular  catches. 
Wachiel.  I.,;imtiert  and  Shephard  for  Du- 
luth and  Baxter.  McCann,  Pease  and 
t.>l)onriell  did  Urilliant  work  for  the  vis- 
itors. In  the  first  ganif  (ox  had  the  Bay- 
held  men  at  his  m^rcy  at  all  sta>;es.  lie 
floated  slow,  tt-asing  benders,  alternated 
with  queer  curves  and  spt^»'d  and  by  sheer 
luck  the  crack  tt-am  from  the  soutii  shore 
Kot  its  SfVen  hits.  Two  jjames,  however, 
w«re  too  much  for  <.'ox  and  .vestt-rday  he 
was  hit  freely.  Kxi-ept  for  very  fast  sup- 
port the  score  wonid  have  been  larger. 
Rt-voir  had  good  speed  and  a  curve  that 
broke  around  the  bewildered  batters  in 
<)ue«-r  angles.  Taking  it  altoRetht-r  tht- 
Bayfield  team  Is  one  of  the  best  that  has 
been  here  and  another  series  between  the 
two    would    be    interesting. 

In  Saturday's  game  Mc<'ann.  the  former 
Minneapolis  twlrler  pitched  fine  ball. 
strikinK  out  a  dozen  men  but  in  Irving 
places  he  was  supported  badl.v.  Shephard 
seemed  to  be  the  only  man  that  could  fig- 
ure out  his  incline  plane  ilelivery  with  any 
certainty,  lie  h.'iving  four^  hits,  one  of 
which  was  a  double.  Gagnon  smashed  out 
two  triples  and  McCarth.v  kepi  up  his  good 
stick  work  with  a  single  an«l  a  slashing 
double.  The  score  by  iindngs  was:

Yesterday  the  Bayfield  team  took  the 
lead  in  the  second  inninjf  and  set  a  furious 
pace  througho\it.  Diduth's  first  errors  were 
costlv.  Bennett,  the  clever  short  stoj)  for 
the  Bis  Duluth  team  had  a  yidderish  spell 
at  se<'ond  and  was  replaced  by  Wachiel 
who  was  the  only  man  that  got  more  than 
one  hit  off  Revolr.  Probably  the  feature  of 
the  game  was  I^iimberfs  two  sensational 
catches  of  terrific  drives  to  center.  Either 
one  of  them  was  well  worth  the  price  of 
admission.  Some  Idea  of  the  battins  streak 
of  the  visitors  ma.v  be  gained  from  the 
fact  that  they  hammered  out  five  doidile.s.

Superior  Athletics,  at  West  Superior  ves- 
terilay  afternoon  by  a  score  of  4  to  .1.  It

M.  G.  French  Thinks  Rainy 

Laita  Gold  Regions  Will 

Boom  Next  Winter. 


RAILROADS  GOING  IN 


They  Will  Have  the  Result 
of  Turning  Mew  Atten- 
tion That  Way. 


"Thi.s  fall  will  witness  a  big  boom  in 
the  gold  rtgions  of  the  Rainy  l..ake 
country,"  sayjt  M.  C.  French,  wlio  re- 
turned from  tSieiv  recently.  Mr.  French 
buses  his  predi<tion  n  »t  alone  on  the  ex- 
cellent prosjiects  said  to  exist  at  nearly 
all  the  mining  propej-tit\«,  but  on  the 
increased  facilities  for  the  opening  up 
of  the  countr.v,  which  will  occur  when 
the  two  railroads  into  it  are  completed. 

The  Minne.s.na  &  International  rjad. 
i  articles  for  which  were  file^l  at  St.  Paul 
last  week,  \y-  one  of  the  roads  that  will 
tap  the  gold  country.  As  has  been  re- 
imrted  at  St.  Paul.  Mr.  French  .says  that 
the  first  purpose  of  the  protnoters  of  the 
new  road  is  the  extension  of  the  Brain- 
erd  &  Northern  for  the  purpose  of  get- 
ting out  loss;  that  on  ahead  of  the 
whtde  scheme  is  a  big  timber  deal  that 
tias  been  stirrins  up  matters  for  some 
time.  Mr.  French  believes  it  is  the  ulti- 
mate object  tf  the  Northern  Pacific  cjni- 
pany,  for  it  is  practically  assured  that 
the  new  road  will  come  under  the  North- 
ern Pacific  system.  ti>  extend  the  pi-i:- 
posed  road,  by  bridging  across  tlK- 
Rainy  river  at  Koochiching,  to  Fort 
Francis,  Canada,  and  fr  jm  this  point  ex- 
tending out  into  the  gold  regions. 

Mr.  French  says  that  the  Ontario  & 
Rain.v  River  railroad  that  is  building 
into  the  gold  fields  from  both  ends. 
Winnipeg  and  Warroad.  will  be  com- 
pleted some  time  next  year.  Within  the 
next  sixty  days,  he  says,  there  will  be 
lOOO  men  nut  on  the  construction  work 
in  the  Rainy  Lake  country.  The  rail- 
road company  is  erecting  large  wart- 
houses  at  Beaver  Falls  and  is  preparing 
in  every  way,  says  Mr.  French,  for  the 
large  amount  of  business  it  is  sure  t  i 
have  when  the  road  is  opened  up. 

Capt.  Lonnberry  has  completed  his 
steamer  for  service  <>n  Rain.v  lake  ami 
the  same  is  now  in  commission  and  doing 
a  goml  bui5ine.ss  on  the  lake. 

Mr.  French  received  last  .Saturday  a 
has  of  very  rich  quartz  from  tr^e  Ran- 
dolph mine.  The  shaft  of  this  mine  1> 
now  down  2('6  feet. 

In  cross-ciittimr  on  No.  5  vein  at  the 
Folev  mine  to  the  Lucky  Jones  and  the 
Daisy  mines.  300  feet  away,  .Mr.  French 
.Kays  a  vein  of  six  feet  and  eig^it  inche.=-. 
was  struck  about  twenty  feet  away.  ;^. 
vein  of  two  feet  in  another  twenty  feel 
and  a  vein  of  three  feel  in  still  another 
twenty  feet.  None  of  these  veins,  he 
says,  slow  at  the  surface,  all  of  which 
K  tea  to  show  that  rich  veins  must  exist 
on  the  mining  properties  in  that  vicinity 
that  will  nor.  be  .seen  from  surface  in- 
dications and  that  will  only  be  found  on 
cross-cutting. 

After  an  absence  from  this  count  rv 
for  some  time  in  search  cf  gold  niini"'r 
propositions,  J.  C.  Foley,  the  well- 
known  mining  man,  is  now  u.n  in  the 
Rainy  Lake'  country,  with  a  view,  it  is 
reported,  of  .securing  an  interest  in 
some  of  the  properties  in  that  region. 
The  mining  men  intertsted  in  the  Rainy 
Lake  gold  fields  say  tnal  is  one  of  the 
best  proofs  that  the  cinditions  up  there 
now  are  as  favorable,  if  not  more  so. 
than  those  in  other  gold  localities.

BUYERS  LEFT, 

Decision  Involving  the  Validity 

of  the  Forfeited  Tax 

Law. 

The  Mankato  Free  Pres.s  contains  the 
following  with  reference  to  a  case  t-iat 
involves  the  validity  of  the  forfeited  lax 
law  and  is  of  state- wide  interest: 

"Judge  Cray,  late  yesterday  afternoon, 
filed  his  decision  in  the  ca-se  of  Hiram 
B.  Cole  vs.  Leo  S.  Lamm.  This  was  an 
action  brought  to  determine  adverse 
claims  to  a  lot  in  this  city.  The  plaintiff 
holds  the  patent  title,  and  the  defendant 
based  his  claim  to  the  property  on  a  tax 
title  acquired  at  the  tax  sale  in  May  of 
this  year  under  the  provisions  of  chap- 
ter .322  of  the  general  laws  of  1899.  known 
as  the  forfeited  tax  law.    The  court  finUd 


that  ithe  plaintiff  is  the  ovmer  in  fee  of 
the  piremises  in  controver.^;.'.  and  thai 
the  defendant  has  a  lien  foi-  th<?  amount 
of  the*  taxes,  penalties  and  intei-e>  t.  as- 
st^ft.sed  against  the  land  and  paid  by  .liin. 
In  a  TTbemorandum  filed  with  hi?  decLsion 
the  cDtirt  states  that  he  does  no:  think 
that  ihie  defendant  is  enititled  to  a  litii 
for  the  amount  paid  at  the  sale,  he  hav- 
ine:  i)aid  several  times  the  amount  of 
the  tax«s,  penalties  and  interest.  Sev- 
efrU  defects  were  urged  againt-t  the  title, 
but  the  court  holds  that,  eveir.  if  the.se 
defects  are  not  sufficient  to  d:?feat  the 
title,  the  law  itself  is  invalid,  in  ^p  far 
aa  it  attempts  to  divest  the  ori^rin-il 
owner  of  the  right  to  a  notice  of  ex- 
piration of  redemption,  provided  ior  by 
the  law  in  force  when  the  originaT  taxes 
were  scldl  to  the  state. 

"R.  J.  Powell  appeared  as  attorntey  for 
the  plaintiff  and  S.  B.  Wilson  appeared 
for  the  diifendant. 

"The  case  is  of  considerable  intt-rest 
t)y  reason  of  its  effect  on  other  sirtiilar 
tax  titles  acquired  at  this  sale  in  this 
county  and  elsewhere  throughout  the 
state.  It:  Is  expected  that  an  appeal 
will  be  taJten.  One  gentleman.  wh«> 
purchased  a  valuable  lot  in  the  city  at 


the  sale  for  a  song  and  subsequently 
made  improvements  on  it  tj  the  amount 
of  .several  hundred  dollars,  is  wondei - 
ing  whether  he  can  get  back  what  ho  put 
into  the  improvenents.  Some  of  the  ai- 
torneys  believe  ihat  he  cannot."

IN  A  BAD 
JLIGHT 

Proctorknott's  Financial  Con- 
dition   BrougM  Before 
Board  of  Equalization. 

VALUATION  TOO 


Owmrs  Object  to  Raise  ef 

$20,000  iade  In 

the  Total. 


Pnov,  bleeding  Proctorknoit,  which 
settlement  is  unfortunate  enough  to  l>e 
a  concrete  example  of  the  evils  of  the 
present  system  of  laxins;  railroads,  was 
up  before  the  board  of  equalization  this 
morjiing.  and  a  discussion  »>f  her  situ- 
ation occupied  most  of  the  forenoon 
session. 

Pructorknott  Is  a  good  example  of 
what  the  practice  of  Ic-tting  the  state 
take  the  proceeiis  of  the  gross  wirnings 
tax  on  railroads  means.  All  other  com- 
munities that  hav«-  railroads  suffer,  but 
they  have  »>ther  industries  to  soften  the 
hardship.  Proctorknoit.  ho^vever.  has 
liu  such  aids,  and  her  only  industry, 
the  railroad,  is  unable  to  pay  her  any 
taxes.  The  result  is  that  she  was  in 
very  bad  shape,  and  with  very  high 
taxes  it  was  impossible  to  raise  enough 
money  to  make  both  ends  meet.  At 
one  time  it  was  very  probable  that  it 
would  be  necessary  to  curtail  education- 
al advantages.  The  village  is  in  much 
better  shape  now.  however,  thanks  to 
a  gift  of  $l<)00  from  John  D.  Rocke- 
feller for  the  schools  last  year  and  to 
an  issue  of  bonds  that  has  taken  up  the 
floating  indebtedness  and  restored  the 
value  of  some  very  much  depreciated 
village  orders.  Still,  conditions  cannot 
l>e  as  good  there  as  they  are  elsewhere 
in  the  county,  for  the  large  population 
brought  there  by  the  railroad  is  forced 
to  pay  the  expenses  of  government  re- 
sulting therefrom^  instead  of  letting  the 
railroad  share  the  cost.  It  is  hoped  by 
the  citizens  that  Rockefeller  will  come  ti> 
the  aid  i>f  the  school  district  again  this 
year,  though  there  is  no  surety  of  it. 

The  valuation  of  the  village  this  year 
as  levied  by  the  assessor  is  about  $84.- 
i)«>0,  an  increase  of  nearly  $JO,<JOO.  and 
Berinh  Magoffin  and  other  property 
owners  appeared  to  protest  against  the 
raise.  Some  of  the  village  officers  ap- 
peared t(»  oppo.'^e  the  rei[Uesi  for  a  re- 
duction, but  when  it  was  explained  to 
them  that  if  a  horizontal  increase  in  the 
assessment  was  made  it  did  not  change 
the  amount  of  local  taxes  each  owner 
would  have  to  pay.  but  it  ral.sed  the 
valuatii>n  of  liie  village  so  that  it  would 
have  to  pay  more  of  the  state  and 
county  taxes.  If  the  assessment  was 
lowered,  it  would  mean  that  the  local 
rate  of  taxation  would  be  raised,  but 
that  the  individual  taxes  would  remain 
unchanged.  while  the  state  and  the 
county  would  get  less  out  of  Proctor- 
knoit. 

The  board  took  the  matter  under  ad- 
visement, and  it  will  be  decided  later. 
The  prbabilities  are,  however,  that  the 
assessment  will  be  put  l»ack  somewhere 
near  what  it  was  last  year,  as  this  will 
relieve  the  burden  of  the  village  some- 
what. 

Wilsim  G.  Crosby  appeared  before  th  • 
board  to  protest  against  the  assessmen; 
of  the  Duluth  half  of  the  Duluth-Su- 
pcrior  bridge.  He  claimed  that  the  as- 
sessment of  $100,tW)0  was  too  much,  and 
that  $.^0,000  would  be  about  right. 

The  discu.^sion  of  the  Duluth-Superior 
bridge  «|U»'stion  brought  out  somethinti 
that  is  quite  important,  if  it  is  true,  and 
there  seems  to  be  no  reason  to  «lfiul>t 
that  it  is.  County  Atti>rney  Phelps  was 
there,  and  he  stated  that  he  was  in- 
formed that  the  Northern  Pacifi.;-  bridge 
was  not  owned  liy  the  railroad  itself. 
but  by  a  bridge  company  that  levies 
tolls  upon  the  railroad  company.  In 
that  case  it  is  subject  to  taxation.  If  the 
bridge  was  owned  by  the  railroad  com- 
pany and  used  by  it  for  railroad  pur- 
poses it  would  be  exempt,  because  the 
<  ompany  pays  a  gross  earnings  tax  v> 
the  state.  If  it  is  in  the  hands  uf  a 
orporation  that  charges  the  railroad 
company  for  its  use.  however,  it  is  sub- 
ject to  taxation,  the  same  as  the  Duluth- 
Superior  bridge,  and  County  .-Xtt'rney 
Phelps  suggested  to  Auditor  Halden 
that  he  put  it  on  the  tax  rolls. 

Commissioner  Kugler  .said  that  he  un- 
derstood that  the  bridge  company  al- 
ready pays  taxes  t.i  the  city  of  Superior 
for  the  \Vi.«consin  half  uf  the'  bridge. 
>Ir.  Halden  referred  the  matter  to  the 
city  assessor,  who  will  look  it  up.  If 
the  bridge  is  found  to  be  in  the  hands  of 
a  c-irporation  other  than  a  railroad  cor- 
pv>ratlon.  the-  bridge,  or  at  least  the  part 
of  it  that  is  in  Duluth,  will  be  placed  on 
the  tax  rolls. 

Movtmfnt  of  Grain. 

The  grain  snii>nient.«  rroni  the  head  of 
the  lakes  lust  week  exceeded  the  receipts 
by  nearly  l.OW.CKM*  bushels,  the  vxact  fig- 
ures being  ;>lT.i>.j:j  bushels.  The  greatest 
difference  was.  of  course,  in  the  receipts 
and  shipment  >  f  wheat.  The  receipts  for 
the  week  in  all  grains  was  258.5»0:i.  and 
the  total  shipments.  l.L'75,y6o  bushels. 
The  wheat  receipts  amounted  t«>  ir>l>.(;6.*. 
bushels.  and  the  shipments  l,04:i.lt6:: 
bushels.  Corn  receipts  and  shipments 
ran  ^lose  together,  there  being  only 
about  HODO  bushels  difference  in  favor  of 
the  shipment.*.  The  receipts  and  ship- 
ments of  the  c  rarser  grains  for  the  week 
Were  as  follows:

Riotous  Conduct  on  Sabbath 

Eve  Brings  B.  Ralnnille 

Into  Trouble. 

Down  en  Paradise  alley,  just  after  tJie 
hush  of  the  Sabbath  eve  had  fallen  on 
the  city,  a  man  rt-as  seen  to  emerge  f r  )ni 
a  house  with  a  table  leg  In  close  pursuit. 
The  furniture  caught  up  with  him 
before  he  had  traveleil  five  feet,  and  he 
howled  in  anguisSi.  Then  a  large  female 
person,  wearing  a  Japanese  kimona 
which  could  be  heard  seven  bUaks  be- 
cause of  its  vtK'iferous  color,  flitted  down 
the  flisht  of  steps  and  caused  him  m>re 
bodily  :)ain.  The  argument  was  fast 
reaching  the  p^iint  where  the  .somber- 
minded  residents  of  the  neighborhood, 
who  had  their  heads  out  of  the  window, 
had  arrived  at  the  conclusion  that  mur- 
der was  contemplated,  when  a  policeman 
arrived.  The  wjman  by  this  time  wa.s 
entertaining  herself  with  some  mono- 
logue that  sounded  like  a  buzz  saw  going 
through  a  knot,  and  several  damselets 
giggled  joyously. 

As  near  as  could  be  learned  D.  Raln- 
nille called  at  the  house  and  was 
smashing  things  in  general  and  furni- 
ture in  particular,  w'len  the  landlady 
came  in.  She  looked  as  if  a  healthv  1- 
months'-old  baby  could  wallop  her  into 
the  dark  and  unfathomed  hence,  and 
as  soon  as  the  young  man  noticed  this 
he  began  making  warlike  gestures. 
When  he  got  through  the  landlady  was 
I  ^e  only  person  in  the  nwm  that  occu- 
pied a  per!)endicular  position.  It  wa.^; 
then  that  Ralnnille  suddenly  remem- 
bered that  he  had  an  engagement  el:-e- 
where,  and  he  started  from  the  place. 
Selecting  a  roiite  leading  over  several 
tables  and  chairs.  He  was  just  sailini; 
gracefully  out  into  the  street  when  th- 
table  leg.  the  woman  and  the  policeman 
caught  up  with  him.  This  morning  he 
pleaded  not  guilty  and  the  hearing  wa.-. 
set  for  tomorrow  afternoon.  It  was  un- 
derstood, however,  that  the  landlad\ 
wouW  allow  matters  to  drop  on  receiot 
of  enough  currency  to  cover  the  loss  of 
damage  done  her  furniture. 

Walter  Gilbert  paid  $12  for  enjoying 
the  sensations  attendant  upon  th*: 
th'-3shing  of  a  man  that  had  taken  his 
job  He  was  emoloyed  by  a  West  Du- 
luth .saloon  keeper.  This  man  recently 
got  hold  of  one  of  the  little  campaiirn 
documents  sent  out  from  the  various 
county  officers -just  about  the  time  re- 
nominations  were  due.  He  ro?d  ra:r^ 
after  page  and  column  after  column  of 
nerve-twisting,  brain-shattering  figures 
on  how  the  expenses  of  the  county  had 
been  reduced.  Then  he  began  deveh  ii- 
ing  svmntoms  of  acute  economy,  and 
he  decided  that  he  could  save  money  by 
getting  a  relative  to  tend  bar  for  him. 
(Gilbert  was  discharged  and  the  relative 
installed.  Gilbert  immediately  hunted 
ui.  the  relative  and  planted  many  jabs, 
swings  and  uppercuts  on  his  countenance 
for  all  of  which  he  paid  the  sum  oi 
S12. 

Lizzie  Buckley,  the  female  derelict  who 
has  been  cruising  in  the  ofTing  with  a 
cargo  of  wet  goods  for  several  days,  was 
towed  into  court  this  morning  and  was 
ordered  to  the  dry  dock  for  twenty  days. 
Hugh  Budden  and  John  Davis  and  Tom 
Meade  each  g<Jt  ten  days  for  drunken- 
ness.

MRS.  MAReARET  EYSTER  DEAD. 


A  Sufftrer  for  Years  She  Finally

At  ti  .i'ih:.k  ilu>  !ii.>rninK.  at  her  homo 
at  Fourteenth  avenue  east,  Mrs.  Mar- 
garet Eyster.  wife  of  the  late  Williaivi 
C.  Eyster.  passed  away.  Mr.  and  Mrs. 
Eyster  came  to  Duluth  in  1871  from 
Chambersl.urg.  Pa.,  sime  which  time 
they  and  their  family  have  been  proml- 
nentlv  identified  with  both  the  business 
and  social  interests  of  the  city.  Mr. 
Eyster.  up  to  the  time  of  his  death,  be- 
ing in  the  banking  business.  Since  the 
death  of  her  husband.  Mrs.  Eysier  has 
spent  much  of  the  time  in  Florida  and 
California,  again  esta'blishing  her  hom? 
in  Duluth  some  three  years  ago.  Al- 
though for  many  years  in  very  delicat.- 
health.  Mrs.  Eyster'.s  death  is  a  shock  t.. 
a  very  large  circle  of  friends  from 
among  the  old  settlers  who.  like  herself, 
braved  the  hardships  and  inconveniences 
of  life  in  a  new  country,  thus  cementing 
friendships  that  never  die;  and  also 
from  among  t.hose  who  came  in  later 
years.  No  one  could  come  in  contact 
with  Mrs.  Eyster  without  admiring  h-i-r 
brave  and  genial  spirit  which,  through 
all  the  years  of  ill  health,  has  k<  pt  alive 
an  interest  in  all  the  affairs  of  life.  Mrs. 
Evster  leaves  a  son.  Robert  Eyster.  and 
his  family,  also  the  two  children  of  her 
ditughter.  the  late  wife  of  Frank  Smith. 

The  funeral  services  will  be  held  Tues- 
day at  the  Christian  Science  church,  on 
Tenth  avenue  east  and  Superior  stree', 
notice  of  which  will  be  given  in  the 
morning  paper,  after  which  Mr.  P^yster 
will  accompany  the  remains  to  Cham- 
hersburg.  Pa.,  for  interment. 


Having  a  tremendous  yearning  to  be- 
come conjugally  mated,  J.  H.  Young,  of 
Graml  Marals,  is  sad  and  lonely  becau.se 
some  dainty  little  soubrettelet  does  not 
leave  her  happy  home  for  him.  Ttiis  is 
an  opportunity  that  should  cause  a 
seething  in  that  bevy  of  feminine  loveli- 
ness known  as  soubrettedom.  Mr.  Young 
confidently  looks  forward  with  fluttcr- 
ings  of  delightful  anticipati  )n  to  a 
honeymcxon  up  the  north  shore  next 
winter,  but  ii  all  depends  t>n  .some  llaxen 
haired  and  lluent  little  cnarmer. 

Mr.  Young  is  4')  years  of  age  and  com- 
fortably situated  financially.  He  is 
wise,  and  In  his  advertisements  for  a 
wife  he  Intimates  that  no  gay  deceivers 
need  apply.  The  following  frim  yester- 
day's Minneapolis  Times  gives  full  par- 
ticulars: 

J.  H.  Young,  of  Grand  Marais,  Minn., 
has  reached  the  age  of  -tS.  and  now  sorely 
recognizes  that  it  is  not  well  for  man  to 
live  alone.  For  over  a  year  he  has 
been  seeking  for  a  life  companion,  but 
up  to  the  present  lime  has  been  unsuc- 
cessful. 

Had  Mr.  Young  been  as  fortunate  as 
Jacob  of  eld  in  having  as  indulgent  .i 
parent  as  Isaac  to  assist  him  in  this  en- 
deavor, his  ambition  might  have  been 
reached,  but  he  has  had  to  shift  entirely 
alone  in  the  matter.  Mr.  Young  has  re- 
peatedly resorted  to  advertising  med- 
iums, but  this  has  also  been  of  no 
avail. 

A  short  time  ago  he  found  his  smgle- 
ness  so  burden.some  that  lie  came  to 
Minneapolis  on  a  matrimonial  pilgrim- 
age, and  is  now  at  :!25  Second  avenue 
South,  where  he  will  remain  about  a 
■week.  Any  woman  complying  with 
certain  plans  and  specifications  will  re- 
ceive his  con.^ideration.  What  Mr.  Young 
wants  is — 

A  smart,  intelligent  lady  of  good  char- 
acter, refinement  and  means,  with  or 
without  a  small  child. 

Mr.  Young,  in  conversation  with  the 
Times  yesterday  stated  that  he  could 
not  understand  the  cause  for  such  a 
dearth  of  women  who  desired  to  marry. 
There  are  but  fev.  women  at  Marais, 
but  he  feels  satisfied  that  he  could  give 

one  a  comfortable  home  there.  Mr. 
Young  says  he  is  only  a  common  man. 
who  has  alA-ays  earned  a  comfortable 
living  for  himself,  but  he  believes  that 
he  could  do  much  l)etter  if  he  has  some 

one  else  to  work  for  also.

BUYERS 
COMING 

Number  of  Lumber  Dealers 

Here  But  Are  Taking 

Very  Little. 

GONFIDENGE   GROWS 


Solicifude  of  Buyers  Leads 

to  Belief  That  They 

Must  Soon  Buy. 


A  number  of  lumber  buyers  from  down 
the  lakes  are  in  the  city  now  and  while 
no  sales  of  any  great  amount  have  been 
made,  there  is  a  feeling  among  the 
manufacturers  here  that  the  day  when 
the  Eastern  men  must  begin  to  take 
lumber  from  here  is  not  far  distant. 
The  buyers  are  not  intimating  any  such 
thing  but  they  are  quietly  looking 
around  and  finding  out  whei-e  they  can 
get  certain  kinds  of  lumber  when  they 
do  want  it.  It  is  this  which  is  giving 
the  manufacturers  here  confidence  that 
the  <"annot  maintain  their  deadlock  very 
much  longer.  They  would  not  be  com- 
ing uj)  to  the  head  of  the  lakes  and 
keeping  such  close  track  of  the  lumber 
here  if  they  did  not  expect  to  be  buying 
some  of  it  before  long.  There  is  no 
aiiparenl  weakening  on  the  part  of  the 
manufacturers  and  they  seem  to  be  more 
than  ever  of  the  opinion  that  their  lum- 
ber is  worth  the  price  they  ask  and  that 
they  will  get  it  if  they  do  not  allow 
themselves  to  be  bluffed  out  of  getting 
it. 

The  supply  of  logs  does  not  grow  very 
much  larger  and  every  day  makes  the 
cut  of  the  season  sinaller  and  smaller. 
The  rains  this  month  helped  somewhat 
but  no  such  amount  of  logs  came  down 
as  would  make  it  po.ssible  for  the  mills 
to  1  un  at  full  capacity  for  the  balance 
of  the  week. 

Some  of  the  mills  'are   making  small 

sales  now  and   then  but  the  aggregate 

of   all   sales    made   in    a    month    is   not 

al  W    B.  Douglas  and  S.  I  much  larger  than  the  mills  are  used  to 

e  up  from  St.  I'aul  Sat- j  m.qking  in  one  lot   in   the  busy   season. 

The  Alger-Smith  company  is  a  little 
more  fortunate  than  some  of  the  other 
mills,  for  the  reason  that  it  has  been 
working  much  of  the  time  for  some 
special  cuts  that  it  had  contracted  for 
some  time  ago.  A  considerable  portion 
of  this  is  going  ijito  simie  government 
work  down  the  lakes. 


PERSONALS. 


There  was  a  pathetic  and  al  the  sa:ne 
time  exciting  scene  in  the  blue  room  oi 
police  court  at  noon  today.  Little 
Annie  Wcdcieszak  was  found  .guilty  of 
inccrrigibility  and  sentenced  to  the  state 
training  .''chool  at  Red  Wing.  As  \\v-

court  room,  the  father  surang  in  front  ot 
the  child,  her  m-ther  grai)bed  her  up  in 
her  arms,  and  her  older  sister  fainted. 
Then  the  Wtd^ieszak  family  formed  a 
sort  of  dying  wedge  and  butted  into  the 
odicers.  The  session  was  short,  i-nd  th"

HEARING  POSTPONED. 

Case  %i\\n%\  WDIIam  S.  Whitehead 
It  Again  Put  Over. 

A  groat  crowd  thronged  police  court  at 
10  o'clock  this  morning  when  the  case 
of  the  state  against  William  S.  White- 
head was  to  have  been  taken  up.  Marie 

K.  Peterson,  a  waitress  charges  him 
with  an  attempt  at  criminal  assault. 
Whitehead  besides  geing  a  member  of 
many  fraternal  orders  is  very  widely 
known  about  town,  and  this  fact  to- 
gether with  the  seriousness  of  the  charge 
against  him  filled  the  court  room  and 
corridor  with  individual  friends  of  the 
young  woman  and  the  prisoner,  as  well 
as  individuals  that  never  miss  a  case  of 
this  kind.  The  crowd  was  disappointed, 
however,  as  the  hearing  was  postponed 
again  till  5  o'f-lock  this  evening. 

Whitehead  still  maintains  his  in- 
nocence and  the  complaining  witness 
claims  to  be  very  positive  that  he  is 
the  man  with  whom  she  went  with  on 
London  road  last  Thursday  evening  on 
her  way  to  Lester  Park.  Whitehead  is 
out  on  $500  bail. 

Ten  thousand  demons  gnawing  away  at 
one's  vitals  couldn't  be  much  worse  than 
the  tortures  of  itching  piles.  Yet  there's 
a  cure.  Dean's  Ointment  never  falls.

GIANT  STRAWBERRIES. 

Jersey  Fruit  That  Is  as   Big  as 
Tomatoss. 

Strawberries,  stupendous  in  size  and  dili- 
cious  in  flavor,  may  be  raised  by  any  one 
of  ordinary  intelligence  who  will  give  time 
and    thought    to    the    work.     A    thousand 

dollars  an  acre  may  be  taken  out  of  tiie 
patch  in  a  season  of  five  months'  labor. 
Tills  sounds  like  a  fairy  tale,  but  it  Is  just 
what  has  been  done  for  the  last  thirty 
ycras  by  Henry  Jerolman,  of  Hilton,  N. 
J.,  .says  the  New  York  Herald.  The  straw- 
berry season  is  at  its  height  and  rivalry  is 
keen  in  tliis  section  just  now  to  get  the 
best   results. 

Farmer  Jerolaman  is  known  throughout 
the  strawberry  belt  and  the  agnculturai 
world  as  "The  Strawberry  King.  '  and  -le 
deserves  the  title,  for  this  is  what  he  has 
done.  Thirty  years  ago  he  bought  a  7- 
acre  strip  of  land  from  old  Seth  Boyden. 
for  whom  he  had  worked  as  a  picker,  and 
set  out  his  strawberry  plants.  The  tirst 
vear  he  paid  for  his  farm,  which  cost  him 
$,-.000.  and  placed  $2000  to  his  credit  in  the 
Newark    Savinss    bank. 

Every  year  since  then  the  strawberry 
l:ing  has  done  at  least  that  well  and  some- 
times very  much  better.  The  same  seven 
{  acres  have  always  been  planted,  to  straw- 
berries, and  this  year  the  berries  are  larg- 
er and  sweeter  than  ever  bef-.-rt-.  And  this 
will  be  Jerolaman's  best  season  financial- 
ly, too. 

He  gets  from  four  to  six  quarts  a  i-e.ir 
from  the  same  bushes  and  shlP'S  to  tiie 
markets  from  3000  to  5000  quarts  a  day. 
the  work  of  more  than  forty  pickers  who 
are  busv  at  their  work  from  eariy  morn- 
ing until  nightfall.  Miuiy  of  these  men. 
women  and  children  make  from  $19  to  $:;it 
a  week  in  this  way,  as  they  are  paid  2 
cents  and  2i^  cents  a  «iuart  by  the  farmer. 
Many  of  the  berries  on  the  king's  farm 
."ire  as"  big  as  good  sized  tomatoes,  and  I 
saw  several  of  the  plants  that  measure. 1 
from  eight  to  ten  inches  around.  One— tho 
record  breaker— which  he  had  preserved  in 
alcohid,  was  thirteen  inches  in  circum- 
ference. 

He  declares  there  i.s  nb  reasoii  why  g!-iiii 
strawberries,  perfect  in  flavor,  cannot  be 
raised  by  any  one  who  will  work  a  grtat 
deal  for  five  months  in  the  year,  and  tie- 
vote  at  least  a  little  time  to  thoug'at  upon 
the  subject  of  berry  culture.  Anyone,  he 
says,  can  make  a  fortune  out  of  the  ground 
through  a  little  strawberry  puicli. 

He  was  the  first  man  who  covered  the 
berry  beds  with  straw  and  the  first  to  raise 
Krape  vines  at  the  sides  of  the  rows  t(igi\e 
just  enough  of  shade  to  the  tiny  tri.it 
id.ints.  Unwillins:  to  accept  tiie  name 
"strawberry"  without  a  reason.  .Terola- 
man.  who  was  a  great  student,  repaired  to 
his  little  library  each  night  when  he  had 
finished  his  work  as  a  picker  for  Farmer 
Boyden  and  searched  for  the  deiivation  of 
the  word. 

Dictionaries  ar.d  enc.vc'opedias  told 
young  Jerolaman  that  the  name  of  straw- 
berry was  uiven  to  the  fruit  from  a  cor- 
ruption of  the  AnM:lo-Saxon  "strae,"  mean- 
ing stray,  because  the  vines  wandered 
over  the  Vround.  but  he  was  not  willing  to 
accept  this  origin,  and  after  long  re- 
search the  youthful  studenl-agr!',  ulturist 
was  rewarded. 

He  found  that  Linneaus,  the  great 
Swedish  naturalist,  had  given  the  fruit 
its  name  becau.se  he  found  that  straw- 
sprinkled  en  the  beds  prevented  the  ber- 
ried! from  droo])ing  on  the  ground  and  ii/t- 
ting.  So  Jerolaman  introfluced  the  custoin 
of  using  straw  and  others  followed  £.ult. 


Officials  Unadvised  as  to  the  Relief 
Column  Leader. 

Washington.  July  -3— li  is  unknown  10 
the  state  department  even  yet.  who  is  to 
e>ommand  the  international  relief  column 
on  its  march  to  Pekin.  which  begins  the 
end  of  this  month.  News  dispatches  of 
late  date  have  assigned  the  command  to 
one  of  two  Russian  generals,  Dragomiroff 
and  Linevich.  The  slate  department 
knows  nothing  of  this,  but  has  been  as- 
suming that  in  the  possible  event  of  the 
failure  of  the  internationals  to  agree 
among  themselves  on  any  other  basis,  the 
Japanese  field  marshal,  Nodsu,  would 
command   by   virtue  of  seniority  of  rank.

SHOCK   CURED  HER. 

Henrv  Haamever.  who  was  shot  twice 
by  his  son  last  Saturday  night,  at  the  home 
of  the  family  on  Ciiambers  street.  Cum- 
minsville.  died  of  his  wounds  yesterday 
afternoon,  shortly  after  4  o'clock,  at  the 
City  hosnital.  says  a  news  item  in  the 
Clrclnnati   Enquirer. 

There  is  a  remarkable  circumstance  con- 
nected with  the  shooting.  For  seven  years 
Mrs.  Haarmeyer  had  been  a  helpless  crip- 
ple, being  forced  to  occupy  a  wheeh-d 
chair.  She  was  seated  In  this  when  at- 
tacked bv  her  husband.  What  followed 
was  like"  a  horrible  dream  to  her.  She 
saw  the  man  who  had  sworn  to  protect, 
love  and  honor  her  ,Tt  the  marriage  alter 
fall  beneath  the  pistol  of  her  son.  and  her 
excitement  was  so  great  that  the  strength 
suddenly  returned  to  her  limbs  and  she 
was  able  to  get  un  and  walk  about  the 
room.  Since  the  tragedv  she  has  not  ex- 
perienced a  return  of  the  ailment  that 
made  her  a  helpless  cripole  for  so  many 
years,  and  Is  now  able  to  walk  with  as 
much  freedom  as  she  ever  did.  The 
chance  was  miraculous  and  is  beginning: 
to  attract  attention  among  the  medical 
fraternity.  It  can  be  attributed  to  her 
excitement   and   great  fright.

idace  in  Emmons  eouniy.  just  over  the 
line  in  North  Dakota,  between  two  Ru.s- 
sian  farmers,  and  which  resulted  in  the 
death  of  both  men.  Complete  details  are 
wanting,  but  it  is  said  that  the  foreigners, 
who  had  not  been  in  this  country  very 
long,  got  into  a  <iuarrel  over  the  posses»- 
fslon  of  a  tract  of  hay  land.  Words  led  to 
the  use  of  the  strange  weapons  and  both

DELAY  IN  MOUNEUX  APPUL 

District  Attorney's  Sid«  ot  tlie  Cast 
Not  Yet  Ready. 

Xf-.v  York.  July  23.— The  fact  that  the 
district  attorney  has  failed  to  file  his 
amendments  to  the  proposed  case  of 
appeal  in  the  matter  of  Roland  B. 
Molineux.  convicted  of  the  murder  of 
Airs.  Katherine  J.  Adams,  created  no 
little  surprise  in  the  criminal  court 
building. 

George  Gordon  Battle,  counsel  for 
Molineux,  appeared  before  Recorder 
Goff  yesterday  and  asked  that  the  dis- 
trict attorney  be  compelled  to  prepare 
his  case  at  once,  so  the  papers  could  be 
submitted  to  the  recorder  before  he 
goes  on  his  vacation. 

Assistant  District  Attorney  Le  Bar- 
bier  said  that  he  had  been  very  bu»y 
of  late  and  that  he  had  not  had  time  to 
prepare  his  entire  case.  He  asked  for 
more  time.  The  recorder  said  that  he 
would  give  the  district  attorney  all  the 
time  necessary. 

It  is  doubtful  whether  the  case  will  bo 
heard  by  the  court  of  appeals  this  year. 

Molineux  passes  his  time  in  the  death- 
house  stuilying  mathematics.  His  wife 
and  mother  still  live  at  Sing  Sing  and 
visit  him  twice  a  week.

London.  July  :i3.— Taough  there  are  some 
indications  that  hardened  pessimism  is  be- 
ginning to  melt  under  the  warming  power 
of  Chinese  assurances,  so  that  11  is  now 
admitted  that  perhaps  not  all  il»e  foreigi; 
mmlsters  at  Pekin  nave  been  killed,  stili

he  was.  in  Hourly  expectation  of  death  by 
massacre,  thougn  both  documents  purport 
Co  have  been  sent  from  Pekin  on  the  same 
dale.  It  is  confidently  anticipated,  how- 
ever, that  the  my.stery  will  soon  be  solved, 
as  all  the  govenimenis.  following  the  ieaii 
of  the  Cnited  Stales  Secretary  of  slate. 
Co!.  Hay,  have  taken  steps  to  test  the  sm- 
cerity  of  Chines*^-  otficia.d'>m  ty  Insisinig 
upon  free  communication  with  the  minis- 
ters. 

In  the  house  of  commons  today,  the  par- 
liamentary secretary  of  the  foreign  olUcc. 
St.  John  Broderick.  coramunlcateo  certain 
statements  of  the  Chine.se  authorities  with 
regard  to  the  safety  of  the  legations  at 
Pekin  and  said  the  Chinese  minister  de- 
clared them  to  be  unharnu-il.  Mr.  Brod- 
erick read  tine  text  of  the  si.-veral  edict.-: 
of  July  l>s.  commenting  on  Minister  Con- 
ger's dispatch  to  the  department  of  siale 
of  the  I'liited  State.s. 

Mr.  Brod;?rick  said  that  though  the  dis- 
patch was  of  the  same  date  of  ihe  »-dic: 
giving  assurances  of  the  foreign  minis:.,  rs 
statement,  the  latter  was  not  borne  out  b; 
Mr.  i.'onger.  Consul  General  Warren  hati 
telegraphed  to  the  governor  of  Sliau  Tung 
to  know  hovr  a  mtssage  from  ihe.r  foreign 
niiiiister.  Sir  Claude  McDonald.  The  gov- 
ernor had  leplifd  tiiat  the  Cnited  SIkI-s 
minister's  message  was  sent  by  the  Tsung 
Li  Yameii  tCiiitiese  foreign  office)  by  a 
messenger  traveling  G-jy  leagues  crougntiy. 
tw  miles)  a  day. 

"1  assure  you,"  the  governor  of  Shan 
Tung  had  addfd.  "there  is  no  telegraijbic 
cimniunication.  I  cannot  explain  why  M.. - 
Donald  has  not  telegraphtd.  but  1  be;; 
you  not  to  be  anxiou.-*  about  the  ministers, 
for  they  and  the  others  are  all  living  and 
unha^rri^•d.  Of  thl.<".  I've  already  had  seve- 
ral reliable  messages.  ' 

Mr.   Broderick  continued: 

"Seeing  that  over  a  month  has  e'-aps^'' 
since  anj-  communicati<:in  reached  thi- 
trovernment  from  the  British  legation  and 
the  Tsung  Li  Yamen  has  cf'mmurucated  by 
messenger  with  various  Criinese  authori- 
ties, her  majesty's  government  feel  they 
cannot  give  credence  to  any  statement  or 
decrees  attributed  to  the  emperor  or  Chi- 
nese government  unless  they  are  fortllied 
by  letters  signed  and  dated  bv  Sir  Clau.i*- 
McDnnald  or  other  Bhltlsh  officials,  or  by 
some  cablegram  in  our  cioher." 

According  to  the  translation  read  by 
Mr.  Broderick.  the  imperial  edict  openj' 
as   follows: 

'In  the  Confucian  philosophy,  in  the 
sfpring  and  autumn,  it  is  written,  en- 
voys should  not  be  killed.  How,  then, 
can  it  be  supposed  the  throne's  policy 
is  to  connive  at  allowing  troops  ano 
people  to  vent  their  wrath  on  foreign 
mini.-stors?" 

The  tdi't  then  give?  the  assurance.^, 
already  rriade  known    to  the  public. 

In  the  hous..'  of  commons  today,  the 
secretary  of  state  for  India,  Lord  Geo. 
Hamilton,  announced  that  the  Maharal 
jah  of  Gwalior  had  offered  the  govern- 
ment a  fully  eiiuipped  hospital  ship, 
upon  which  it  is  propo.sed  to  send  twenty 
lakh:^  of  rupees,  for  service  in  China, 
as  a  mark  of  loyalty  to  the  queen.  The 
offer  was  accepted.  Lord  George 
Hamilton  also  testified  as  to  the  govern- 
ment's appreciation  of  the  generosity  of 
thos-  who  are  sending  the  Maine  t.)

Many  are  the  stories  tJiat  come  to  him 
who  wait.'^  for  a  month  op  six  weeks  in 
Constantinople.  Other  commerce  than 
that  in  fir'.'arms  i?  regulated  by  law.  Tlio 
bakers,  for  example,  are  commanded  to 
sell  only  loaves  of  a  prescribed  weight 
under  penalty  of  confiscation  of  their 
entire  stock.  Think  you  that  this  carrio;^ 
aught  of  terror  t)  their  crafty  souls'.* 
They  still  go  on  baking  underweight 
loaves,  asserting  that  it  is  cheaper  t.> 
suffer  an  occasional  confis<.ation  than  t.) 
be  habitually  honest.  So  it  happens  that 
when  the  supply  of  bread  in  the  bar- 
racks run.-J  short,  out  sallies  an  insotct- 
or  in  full  confidence  that  the  first  l.iaf 
he  te.*-ts  in  t?ie  first  shop  on  his  lis-: 
will  Ije  short  weight,  and  thus  put  in 
his  hands  the  whole  stock.  Thus  ar.- 
troops  fed  at  the  minimum  of  expen.-t, 
while  the  baker  philo.sophically  shuts  u-^ 
.«tion,  to  resume  as  soon  as  his  ove!i.=5 
can  turn  cur  anjther  supply  of  altoget.h- 
er  similar  loaves,  says  the  New  York 
Sunday  Times. 

As  for  paying  of  salaries  to  the  em- 
ployes of  the  sublime  x>orte,  the  gov- 
ernment Is  three  years  in  arrear.s  ju.-=t 
now,  asserts  common  gossip.  But  if  t.'ie 
cash  is  not  available  the  porte  can  issue- 
its  paper  promi.se  and  can  and  does  de- 
cree that  such  scrip  shall  be  legal  ten- 
der in  payment  on  account  of  taxe- 
levied  on  leal  estate  up  to  50  per  cent  of 
their    total    amount. 

Speaking  of  taxes,  pay  w'nen  you  pleas.* 
is  the  rule  in  Constantinople,  say  my 
English  friends.  You  own  a  house,  i;.* 
does  Brown,  the  rich  dry  gr)cds  mer- 
chant. A  few  repairs  are  needed,  bu: 
first  of  all  permission  must  be  obtained 
for  no  building  operation  is  otherwi.=e 
possible.  Visit  the  proper  functiomiy 
then,  always  a  person  of  immense  dig- 
nity. "Let  me  see.  Mr.  Brown."  turn- 
over the  leaves  of  a  ponderous  bo tk. 
"Ah.  1  see.  You  haven't  paid  your  ta.K- 
for  two,  three,  yes.  five  years.  Weil. 
when  you  pay  we'll  give  you  the  permit 
to  repair  your  hou.>-e."  They  have  a 
street  cleaning  tax  in  Con.stantinopK . 
Perhaps  they  actually  do  clean  ih, 
streets,  alth)Ugh  the  present  writer 
discovered  no  evidence  of  the  fact  dur- 
ing hs  stay.  At  any  rate,  the  offices  -if 
one  of  the  great  tourist  agencies  wer.- 
moved  to  new  (ju.^rters  about  a  yeai 
ago.  Hardly  v.vre  they  comfortabi'- 
settled  before  around  came  a  bill  for 
no  iesa  than  nine  years  b.ick  street 
cleaning  taxes.  They  were  due,  of 
course,  from  the  former  tenant;  but  if 
ti.ie  new  one  had  not  been  an  English 
coin;ianv  .md  able  to  invoke  the  as.sis- 
tance  of  a  powerful  ambassador  i: 
would  have   been   forced   to   nar. 

So  it  is,  too,  with  jittle  affairs  of  tli  • 
police  court.  A  young  fellow  of  bibu- 
lous tendencies  was  unlucky  enough  c- 
become  involved  in  a  street  row  on  • 
night  not  long  ago,  so  he  confesses, 
witn  some  amusement,  and  was  proino- 
iy  hauled  to  Galata  Serai  by  some  of  the 
omnipresent  policemen.  Name  and  ad- 
dress, duly  recorded,  was  let  go.  Tw  1 
years  later  he  received  a  bill  for  fiftv 
piastres. 

"What's  this  about?" 

"That  is  your  fire." 

"What  fine.  I  owe  you  nolSiing.  Get 
out." 

"But.  yes.  Effendim.  do  you  nit  re- 
member that  fight  two  years  ago  by  tli^ 
Palais  du  Crystal?"  And  he  had  to  sec- 
tie.  Fancy  what  a  shock  the  new  ilipio- 
macy  of  the  L'nitcd  States  must  be  to 
officials  grown  rusty  in  temporizing 
after   this   fashion. 

It  is  a  curious  fact,  as  a?.serted  by  my 
friends  in  C  )nstantiniple.  that  insur- 
ance premiums  are  lower  there  than  i:-. 
London  and  the  field  an  unusually  pro- 
fitable one  to  the  companies.  Grantins 
that  fire  protection  is  inadequate  aiil 
crude  and  that  serious  fires  are  com- 
mon, they  yet  assert  that  when  r^laced 
by  intelligent  agents,  familiar  with  lo- 
cal conditions,  the  business  is  profitable 
in  spite  of  the  low  rates  created  b.v 
the  competition  among  the  British  and 
German  and  other  continental  com- 
panies. 

As  one  ipj^rcaches  Constantinople  for 
the  first  time  he  is  quite  sure  to  lo.jk 
forward  to  the  custom  house  inspection 
with  som?  anxiety.  Hearsay  and  tiie 
guide  books  have  combined  to  lead  him 
to  anticipate  i^iat  his  copy  of  the  late:it 
French  ncvel.  as  well  as  the  Testamen: 
nestling  beside  it  in  his  bag.  in  fact,  all 
printed  books,  possibly  even  his  diary 
packed  in  his  luggage,  will  be  confis- 
cated for  inspection  by  the  censor,  and 
only  returned  to  him.  if  at  all.  through 
his  consul,  and  after  a  lot  of  bother. 
What  actually  happens  is  that  you  give 
yourself  over  to  the  care  of  a  hotel  guide. 
ior  a  kava^  from  ttie  "consul  or  minister, 
if  you  have  influence  enough  to  com- 
mand the  presence  at  the  railway  or 
quay  of  one  of  these  gorgeously  capar- 
isoned attendants,  and  this  individual 
assures  the  inspector  that  you  hav;.- 
absolutely  nothing  in  your  baggage, 
and  by  the  transfer,  iioiiteiy  and  unos- 
tentatiously, of  a  paltry  1  franc  niece 
the  transaction  is  closed  and  you  are  at 
liberty  to  drive  away.  To  jump  frorr 
arrival  to  departure,  it  may  be  observed 
that  Constantinople  is  one  of  the  places 
easier  to  get  into  than  to  get  out  of. 
After  preliminary  arrangements  have 
been  comoleted,  one  finds  tCiat  he  must 
again  have  his  baggage  examined,  mu.-t 
again  contribute  a  franc  toward  the 
comfort  of  the  customs  service,  must 
have  his  passport  carefully  examined 
and  full  details  of  complexion,  sex. 
whither  and  whence,  recorded  laboriou.*- 
!v  \r\  a  huge  book  (one  wonders  what 
ultimateb'  becomes  of  them),  and  at 
length,  after  pas.«ing  out  another  franc 
or  two.  is  himself  permitted  to  pass  out 
to  the  steamer.  Ycur  friends  go  with 
vcu  as  f.'ir  as  the  barrier,  but  unless 
they  have  sufficient  pull  to  obtain  a  per- 
mit from  the  preternaturally  fat  and 
solemn  Turk  who  .^ways  the  destinies  of 
mankind  in  this  regard,  they  cannot 
accompany  you  on  board  the  shin,  so 
jealously  does  the  spider  fasten  in  his 
net  the  creature  once  in  his  power. 

The  ordinary  visitor  to  Constantinople 
wr->o  poses  in  the  security  of  his  far- 
away home  a?  a  linguist  on  the  strength 
of  Ms  asFiduous  application  to  Smith's 
"French  in  Twenty  Lessonis"  or 
Brown's  "Complete  German  Phrase 
Book,"  will  be  astounded  by  the  mar- 
velous attainments  of  merchants  doinr 
business  among  the  mixed  races  of  the 
Levant.  One  must  perforce  speak  at 
least  three  languages  fluently,  while  a

An  evening's  row  along  the  Bosphoru.' 
must  suggest  visions  full  of  poetry  and 
romance  to  anyone  who  has  ever  turn«<! 
pages  of  Turkish  travel.  To  the  prosaic 
mind  of  the  man  of  affairs  not  the  le.T.-* 
interesting  feature  of  the  excursion  will 
be  the  tinkling,  -squeaky  music  fiat 
floats  out  through  the  moonlight  from 
behind  the  latticed  windows  of  all  the 
Turkish  places  that  border  that  narrow 
strait.  "You  have  already  seen  ohono- 
graphs  displayed  in  the  shnp  windows 
and  are  now  told  I'oat  thousands  of  them 
are  being  sold.  The  secret  of  their  popu- 
lariiv  is  not  a  nuzzling  one.  It  is  the 
toy  of  the  harem:  from  it  the  Turkish 
women  get  their  only  idea  of  the  sound 
of  men's  voices  in  song,  of  the  latest  or 
oldest  favorites  in  opera  house  or  music 
hai:.  Yet  it  is  odd.  at  first  thought.  t!his 
!c!ea  of  the  talking  machine  in  the  re- 
cesses of  M(Oslem  homes. 

The  Pera  Palace  hotel  in  Constanti- 
nonle  and  the  .Summer  Palace  hotel  ar 
Therapai  are  lighted  by  electricity.  It 
is  said  that  their  installation,  first  and 
last,  cost  them  $.^n.OOO.  Outside  of  t'aem 
electricity  does  n-'t  scintillate  to  any 
appreciable  extent  in  Constantinople, 
while  the  newest  irade  rep.orted  as  em- 
anating from  the  porte  forbids  the  entry 
of  any  sort  of  electrical  apparatus,  even 
of  electric  bells.  It  is  commonly  said 
that  the  sultan  has  been  persuaded  by 
his  jealous  keepers,  ever  anxious  to  re- 
mind him  of  his  perpetual  danger,  that 
a  dynamo  is  first  cousin  to  dvnamite 
and  a  very  desirable  article  to  leave  se- 
verely alone.  A  local  merchant  assured 
the  writer  with  a  grin  that  he  was  :ret- 
ting  out  two  dynamos  which  were  to 
be  invoiced  as  "old  engines."  If  t'ac 
customs  people  were  at  all  suspicious 
there  remained  the  ever  available  re- 
source of  backshish. 

As  for  telephones— but  what  an  oppor- 
tunity they  would  afford  for  whisperin^r 
treason!  Why,  pe<ople  could  actuall)' 
talk  to  one  another  right  in  his  own 
capital,  and  the  sultan's  spies  have  nev^r 
a  chance  of  overhearing  a  word  I 

It  is  said   that  a   local   postal   service 
was  tried  a  few  years  ago  in  Constan- 
tinople.     But    some    foolish    fellow    de- 
veloped   a    mania     for     writing    postal 
cards  to  the  grand  vizier  explaining  in 
lucid  language  just  how  poor  an  opinion 
he  entertained  of  him  and  of  the  estab- 
lished order  of  things  in  general.  The r" 
was  no  way  of  dis«<overing  who  was  the 
guilty    wretch,    so    the    local    post    was 
abolished. 
Tears  ago  the  American  and  English 
j  residents  in  Constantinople  contributed 
1  quite  a  large  amount  of  money  to  estao- 
j  Jish  a  reading  room  and  library  for  the 
'  natives.    They  failed  to  secure  the  requi- 
I  site   permission   from   the   porte,    which 
]  does   not   encourage   the    gathering   to- 
!  gether   of   its   .subjects   where   they   are 
likely  to  have  opportunities  of  talking 
and   hatching  out  all   manner  of  rude 
schemes,  and  the  money  still  lies  in  tho 
bank,  a  source  of  some  embarrassment 
to  the  treasurer  of  the  fund.       People 
look  for  a  change  when  Abdul  Hamid  II 
dies  or  retires.

The  Starving  In  India. 

To  the  Ktlitur  of  The  Herald: 

Today  thcrr^  are  .-.om.'  tHOOO.tCJO  of  our  fel- 
low beiUKs  in  India  suffering  acutely  for 
lack  of  food.  Of  this  number  10,(K)0,UU0  an- 
already  face  to  face  with  star\ation,  and 
not  Inuidreds,  but  thousands  are  dying 
daily.  (Jovernment  aid.  just  enough  to  sus- 
tain life,  is  bting  given  through  the  agenc>' 
of  relief  works,  tu  large  numbers.  Private 
aid  is  also  doing  much  to  relieve  these  ter- 
rible conditions,  but  still  there  ought  to  h<:. 
there  must  be  done,  many  times  over  what 
is  alreatly  being  done.  The  famine  is  one 
of  thf"  mtist  severe  and  fur-ieachliig  of  any 
during  the  past  1(J0  years,  and  the  worst  is 
not  yei. 

During  the  i)ast  few  days  in  Hoston  a 
committee  of  100  prominent  citizens,  known 
as  the  "Itoston  Committee  of  One  Hundretl 
on  the  India  Famine  Relief."  has  been  or- 
g::nized  to  take  in  hand  the  collection  of 
funds  from  Boston  and  vi<  inity.  This  com- 
mittee has  .selected  a  chalrm.tn,  a  secretary 
and  a  treasurer,  it  is  already  circulating 
literature  setting  forth  the  facts  in  connec- 
tion with  the  famine,  and  putting  forth 
whatever  efforts  are  reciuired  for  the 
speedy  ctdlection  and  transmittal  to  the  af- 
fected districts  of  as  large  a  fund  as  pos- 
sible lor  il  to  collect.  Through  its  agency 
alone  many  thousands  of  lives  will  !)•« 
saved  from  be  pain  and  agon.\'  of  slow 
starvation. 

This  .same  plan- and  this  is  my  poiiil- 
(•an  l>e  a<ln|>t  -il  in  evei-j-  city  and  town  in 
the  (■(■i.iitry,  and  I  I  rust  that  it  will  b- 
adopted  in  v>'ry  larsc  numtiers.  .\ny  per- 
son of  known  integrity  ainl  honesty  of  pur- 
pose who  feels  moved  to  turn  an  ear  to  the 
bundr»'<ls  of  thousands  of  our  suffering  fol- 
low-l)einRs,  in  a  coimtry  which  lias  given 
to  the  world  some  of  its  most  valuable 
treasures  in  learning,  in  music,  in  science, 
in  art,  in  thongtn,  in  relif;ion.  in  life,  can 
he  instriim  ntal  in  inittliiK  into  operation 
the  al  i)vp  plan  in  the  community  in  which 
hi>  or  she  is  living. 

The  jiccretar.N  of  the  Fiostoii  committee, 
who  can  be  .iddressrd  "Ftoston  <'omniittee 
of  One  Hundred  on  India  F'amine  Relief. 
No.  II  Beacon  street.  Room  204.  '  or  the 
.-secretary  of  the  New  Yr)rk  commit  te. 
wlio  <'an  be  ad<lresse<l  "Committee  of  On« 
Hundred  on  India  Famine  Relief,  73  Bibb 
Ilonso.  New  Vork,  '  will  lie  glad.  1  am 
sure,  to  Kive  suRgestions  to  an.v  one  who 
ma.v  interest  themselves  in  orfianizins  a 
(<»inmiltee  in  their  own  city  or  villasre,  and 
also  to  semi  printed  information  regarding 
the  existing  conditions  in  the  famine- 
stricken  districts  of  India,  as  also  the 
needs,  metho.l.-i  of  ili.stributiiu)  there,  etc.. 
which  can  b"  rcprodnced  b>-  the  various 
committer's  thrroiKh  their  local  jiress.  In 
letter  and  leaflet  form,  etc.,  as  they  may 
deem  best. 

Certainly  f i  om  this  land  of  pl?nty,  larpe 
sums  will  Ro  to  th«t  land  of  famine.  It  is 
within  the  power  of  ea<-h  tme  here  to  he 
the  means  of  savins  a  life  or  many  lives 
there.  Two  (fnts  a  day  will  feed  one  per- 
son: $2  will  save  a  life  until  the  coming 
harvest.  Surely  upon  us  all.  even  to  the 
extent  of  some  little  sacrifice  if  riecessary. 
a  deep  responslbilltv  rests.  Very  faith- 
fully yours.       RALPH  WAL,DO  TRINE.

Deafness  Cannot  Be  Cured 

by  local  applications,  as  they  cannot  reach 
the  diseased  oortion  of  the  ear.  There  is 
only  one  way  to  cure  deafness,  and  that  is 
bv  constitutional  remedies.  Deafness  is 
caused  bv  an  inflamed  condition  of  the 
mucous  lining  of  the  Eustachian  Tube. 
When  this  tube  gets  inflamed  you  have  a 
rumbling  pound  or  imperfect  hearing, 
and  when  it  is  entirely  closed  deafness  is 
the  result,  and  unless  the  inflammation 
can  be  taken  out  and  this  tube  restored 
to  its  normal  condition,  hearing  will  be 
destroyed  forever:  nine  cases  out  of  ten 
are  caused  bv  catarrh,  which  is  nothing 
but  an  inflamed  condition  of  the  mucous 

^^vt^wUl  give  One  Hundred  Dollars  for 
any  case  of  deafness  (caused  by  catarrh) 
that  can  not  be  cured  by  Hall's  Catarrh 
Cure.  Send  for  circulars,  free.

GRAPES  IRE  ARRIVINB. 

Small  Lots  From  fieorgia  Appearing 
In  the  Market. 

Small  lots  of  grapes  are  arriving  in 
the  market  from  Georgia,  and  are  quot- 
ed to  the  trade  iround  SO  cent.^  per  8- 
pound  basket.  The  grape  season  proper 
for  this  market  opens  about  Aug.  1. 
when  the  fruit  begins  to  arrive  in  car 
lots.  The  indications  are  that  it  is 
about  on  time  this  year.  The  first  car 
lots  that  arrive  are  generally  from  the 
famous  Pee  We«'  valley  of  Kentucky. 
Ohio  grapes  begin  to  come  in  from  ten 
days  \o  three  weeks  later,  and  those 
from  farther  East  string  along  after- 
wards. The  Pennsylvania  vineyards  be- 
gin to  send  their  quotas  next  after  Ohio 
usually.  The  station  of  Northeast,  .n 
that  state,  which,  by  the  way,  is  in  the 
northwestern  pait,  is  one  of  the  biggest 
grape  shipping  points  in  the  country. 
New  York  follows  Pennsylvania,  the 
bulk  of  the  fruit  from  the  Empire  state 
coming  fiom  CI  autauqua  and  Catta- 
laugua  counties,  where  more  grapes  art- 
grown  to  the  square  inch  than  in  like 
extent  of  territory  in  the  world. 

The  market  is  steady  and  generally 
unchanged  fronr.  last  week's  closing. 
New  potatoes  are  quoted  to  the  trade  at 
4a  cents.  Eggs  and  butter  fine  at  Satur- 
day's prices.

A  DULUTH   INVENTOR.

Washington.  July  24.— The  department 
of  state  made  public  the  Chinese  appeal 
for  mediation  and  the  president's  re- 
ply: Minister  Wu  brought  to  the  depart- 
ment a  copy  of  the  identical  telegi-am 
sent  out  by  Sheng  to  the  powers,  re- 
peating the  Chinese  assurances  of  the 
safety  of  the  legations  up  to  the  ISth 
in.«tant.  and.  finally.  Special  Commi.«- 
sioner  Rockhill  returned  to  Washington, 
and  l)egan  to  prepare  for  his  journey  to 
China.  Such  were  the  developments  of 
the  morning  so  far  as  China  was  con- 
cerned. 

The  Chinese  appeal  i.«  unque.>=tior.ably 
an  adroit  production.  The  presidents 
answer  is  equally  clever  and  more  sin- 
cere: that  is  the  opinion  of  the  officials 
here  who  have  carefully  studied  both. 
The  president  baa  succeeded  in  asking 
for  conditions  precedent  ^j  mediation 
quite  as  valuable  as  those  laid  down  in 
Europe,  yet  he  has  so  tempered  his 
requirements  as  to  make  them  unex- 
ceptionable to  the  Chinese  government. 
At  the  same  time,  there  is  nothing  in  the 
note  to  which  the  Eui-opean  chancellor- 
ies can  oljjec't,  openly  at  least.  The 
president  expressly  state.-*  that  his 
mediation  is  sunject  to  the  appro\al  of 
the  powers:  he  will  not  attempt  to  force 
it  upon  Europe,  and  the  Chint>-e  govrn- 
ment  must  produce  ihe  ministers  in 
saf..'ty. 

Minister  Wu  declares  that  his  govern- 
ment will  meet  that  oli]igati<>n.  in  proof 
of  which  he  produc<  d  Shengs  telegram, 
in  which  he  expressed  implicit  confi- 
dence. Certainly,  if  the  last  promise  is 
i)a.-jpless.  the  Chinese  government  is 
party  to  one  of  the  most  barefaced 
deceptions  ever  practiced  upon  another 
nation  in  the  ■utiniation  of  the  state 
department. 

The  dcpartni'  ;.t  .!■  .  s  not  doubt  .Minis- 
ter Wus  sincerity  in  any  case,  ami  rs 
for  that  official,  he  is  so  confident  thft 
the  United  States  government  is  the 
only  one  in  the  world  to  which  China 
can  look  for  fair  friendly  ii-eatment  that 
he  has  exhausted  every  effort  personal- 
ly, by  appeal  and  otherwise,  t"  .serve  all 
the  other  foreign  ministers  in  Pekin.  if 
p<issib!e.  but  any  rate  to  in.~ure  the 
safety  of  Mr.  Conger. 

Tne  Sheng  telegram  was  made  public 
at  the  state  department  in  the  following 
statement: 

■"Minister  Wu  visited  the  state  depart- 
ment this  morning  ^July  24)  and  hanlefl 
to  t'.ie  acting  secretary  of  stat^-  the  fol- 
lowing text  of  a  cablegram,  explaining 
that  it  was  a  cablegram  from  Director 
Cieneral  Sheng  at  Shanghai,  dated  July 
23,  1900,  to  the  (^hinese  minister  at  Lon- 
don, by  whom  it  had  been  letransmitted 
ti  Minister  Wu  and  received  by  the  lat- 
ter on  the  night  of  the  same  day. 

••News  from  Pekin  of  22n'1  day  of  <>tli

Wen  Jul,  by  direction  of  the  tsung  11

ministers  and  found  mt  one  of  them

cort them  to  Tien  Tsin." 

BRITISH  SKEPTISAL  YET. 


Do  Not  Rigard  Conger  Message  as 
Bonuine. 

New  York.  July  24.— A  dispatch  to  the 
Tril'une  from  London  says:  The 
British  foreign  office  has  not  l)een  im- 
pressed with  the  American  disclosures 
regarding  the  trend  of  happenings  in 
China.  It  declines  to  accept  Mr.  Con- 
ger's letter  as  anything  mote  than  a 
belated  communication  of  about  the 
same  date  as  Sir  Robert  Hart's  appeal 
for  succor,  and  it  regards  all  Chinese 
assurances  as  to  the  safety  of  the 
legations,  whether  from  the  viceroys, 
the  minister,  the  correspondents  or  the 
emperor  himself,  as  tainted  with  sus- 
picion. 

Communications  have  been  exchanged 
in  the  last  forty-eight  hours  between 
the  American  embassy  and  lA>rd  Salis- 
bury, special  messengers  having  gone 
with  trem  to  and  from  Hartfield,  l>ut  the 
nature  of  the  proposals  has  not  been  dis- 
closed. It  is  conje<'tured  that  the  state 
department  has  either  proposed  some 
scheme  of  mediation  based  up«>n  an  ap- 
peal to  the  emperor  of  China  or  upon 
suggestions  to  Li  Hutig  Chang,  or  else 
has  urged  an  immediate  advance  of  the ! 
allied  army  on  Pekin.  Whatever  may 
have  been  the  substance  of  these  pro- 
posals, it  is  tertain  that  the  foreign 
office  is  strongly  prejudiced  against  the 
trustworthiness  of  the  evidence  upon 
which  the  state  department  is  acting 
and  attaches  more  importance  to  the 
dispatches  of  the  half  penny  papers 
describing  the  massacres  at  Pekin  than 
it  does  to  either  Mr.  Conger's  message 
or  official  declarations  of  the  Chinese 
viceroys.    The^e      dispatches  were  not 


based  upon  the  testimony  of  eye  wit- 
nesses, itut  upon  a  leakage  from  Sheng's 
servants. 

It  is  evident  tba'.  the  mystery  of 
f^ekin  will  speedily  be  cleared  up  for 
the  British,  for  the  French  and  other 
governments  are  following  ih?  iec,  1  of 
the  state  dejiartment  and  iii.?isiing  u;:en 
l)eing  placed  in  communication  with 
iheir  minister.  The  Chinese  minisler 
heie  is  confident  that  the  rospons'S  wi'l 
b<-  favorable  in  every  instance  except 
that  of  Germany,  but  there  is  a  well 
founded  belief  that  even  the  empres.s 
duuager  is  telling  half  truths  at  l>est 
and  that  only  a  remnant  of  the  legations 
is  alive. 

Ernest  Vizetlly  has  expressed  this 
view  in  the  Westminster  (Gazette  after 
drawing  a  striking  analogy  between  the 
present  situation  and  that  of  1860,  when 
Parks  and  other  foreisner§  were  im- 
prisoned and  there  was  .■»  revcl  of 
•  'hinese  mendacity.  He  believes  that 
Mr.  Conger  and  M.  Pichon  may  Ije  alive, 
since  the  Chinese  government  is  trying 
to  negotiate  with  the  I'nited  States  and 
i'rance.  liut  that  many  members  of  the 
legations  have  perished.  History  is 
likely  to  r  peat  itself  in  that  stagnant 
Eastern  country. 


London  Thinks  the 

Trade  on  Them. 

London,  July  24.— One  more  day  has 
elapsed  since  Sir  Robert  Hart,  director 
of  the  Chinese  maritime  customs,  smug- 
gled out  of  Pekin  the  last  piece  of  news 
that  appeals  authoritatively  to  Europe, 
and  apparently  the  only  method  by 
which  the  Chinese  court  can  vindicate 
its  veracity  here  is  to  transmit  another 
autograph  message  from  some  equally 
authoritative  source.  Admittedly,  the 
tsung  11  yamen,  Chinese  foreign  office, 
possesses  facilities  to  set  all  doubt  at 
rest. 

LI  Hung  Chang's  reported  statement 
to  the  effect  that  while  the  forei2:ners 
are  alive,  thev  would  be  killed  imme- 
diately if  the  allied  forces  neared  Pekin, 
is  regarded  by  those  who  credit  the  re- 
ported survival  of  the  foreign  ministers 
as  an  indication  that  the  latter  are  held 
as  hostages  and  that  their  lives  will  be 
made  the  subject  of  negotiation  by  the 
Chinese:  hence.  Li  Hung  Changs 
anxiety  to  keep  the  powers  from  Pekm 
as  long  as  possible. 

KEMPFF  IS  NNCTILIOUS. 

He  Raises  a  Rumpus  Over  the  Salute 
Question. 

I^ndon.  July  24.— The  Globe's  naval 
correspondent  at  Taku  writes:  Admiral 
Kempff  has  raised  a  storm  in  a  tea 
cup  on  the  salute  question.  He  is  second 
in  command  of  the  station,  and  thus 
entitled  to  eleven  guns  as  rear  admiral, 
and  this  was  recently  given  him  by  the 
Endymion  at  Yokohama.  He  claimed 
thirteen  guns,  staling  that  no  Am.erlcan 
admiral  got  eleven  guns  their  values 
lieing:  Full  admiral,  seventeen;  vice 
admiral,  fifteen:  rear  admiral,  thirteen. 
The  United  States  having  just  started 
the  grade  of  admiral,  it  is  probal)le 
Kempff  thought  out  the  regulations  in 
pure  Ignorance  as  there  appears  to  be 
no  reason  why  a  United  States  rear 
admiial  should  be  worth  more  powder 
than  any  other  rear  admiral. 

"To  his  protest.  Rear  Admiral  Kempff 
was  informed  that  the  captain  of  the 
Endvmlon  will  give  him  as  many  a.«i  he 
wanted  if  there  was  sufficient  powder 
on  the  ship.  Init  until  they  published 
their  regulations  we  had  to  go  by  ours. 

"The  Orlando,  British  armored  ship, 
arriving  at  Taku.  knew  nothing  of  this 
.squabble  and  rubbed  it  in  by  salutlnfr 
the  Chinese  rear  admiral  with  thirteen 
guns,  then  the  Russian  rear  admiral 
with  thirteen  and  the  United  States  rear 
admiral  with  eleven  guns.  Whether 
the  distance  made  it  difficult  for  them 
^rtjFOTC'P  u*^*  ■**  .«'*quinu  am  usmSunsip  oj

CONDITiOliSJN  PEKIN. 

Facts  Bearing  on  ihs  Situation  of 
the  Legationers. 

San  Francisco,  July  Ji— Shanghai  and 
Yokohama  newspapers  received  by  the 
.\merican-Maru  give  .some  interesting 
fads  regarding  the  situation  In  China  and 
Japan  and  of  the  position  of  the  foreign 
colony  in  the  British  legMti'ni.  The  Japan 
Mail    of   Yokohama,    .«ays: 

"This  is  the  time  when  to  live  in  Pekin 
at  all  is  to  sullVr  terribly  from  hK.ct. 
With  so-i  foreigners,  including  many  wo- 
men and  children,  crcwdtd  in  the  L.-itish 
legation  and  exposed  to  ihe  conalan^  ritle 
tire  of  the  Chinese,  the  misery  must  be 
L:r«at. 

"The  walls  are  higli  and  thick  and  tin 
defenders  must  have  been  forced  to  erect 
stasings  on  the  inner  side  on  which  nlie- 
mt  n  could  stand.  If  the  Chinese  used 
artillery,  the  gunners  would  have  to  ex- 
l>ose  themselves  to  ritle  lire  at  short 
lange,  and  this,  with  tht  nurhbtr  of  good 
shots  among  the  marines,  would  be  at- 
tended with  very  severe  losses.  The  gun- 
ners could  not  take  up  a  distant  position 
and  bombard  the  buildings  efCeclively 
without  destroying  much  of  their  own 
projierty. 

"The  i>rovlslon  question  is  the  worst. 
There  are  no  ice  plants  in  the  foreign  U- 
gallons  and  they  have  been  aecustomel 
to  depending  upon  the  Chinese  markels 
for  their  daily  supplies  ef  beef  and  niut- 
tiin.  A  certain  quantity  of  preserved  pro- 
visions were  doubtless  stocked  In  the  Hotel 
de  Ptkin.  but  nothing  to  feed  so  large  a 
number  as  SOO. 

"The  Japanese  minister  at  Pekin  at- 
tempted to  communicate  with  Tlen  Tsin 
after  railway  communication  was  ended. 
He  engaged  A  Japanese  who  speaks  Chi- 
nese fluentiv,  dressed  him  in  Chinese 
clothes  and  hoped  he  would  escape  moles- 
tation. The  Boxers,  however,  detected  the 
masquerade,  beat  him  severely  and  would 
have  murdered  him  had  he  not  escaped 
into  a  swamp,  where  he  remained  hidden 
for  several  hours  in  water,  only  his  noie 
lielng  above  the  surface.  He  finally 
reached  Tien  Tsin  in  a  terrible  plight." 

The  troubles  in  China  threaten  to  bring 
on  a  financial  panic  in  Japan.  China  haa 
gradually  become  the  greatest  field  for 
Jaoane.se  trade  enterprise  and  the  practi- 
cal closing  of  this  market  is  bound  to 
bear  heavilv  on  many  large  Japanes- 
tirms.  These  firms  are  represented  by  big 
establishments  in  Tlen  Tsin  and  elsewheie 
and  Instructions  have  been  sent  to  the 
staffs  there  to  close  up  and  return  to 
Japan  when  the  journey  1?  practicable.

NEWS  OF  LE6ATI0NERS. 

Pekin  Courier  Says  the   Marines 
Were  Fighting  Vigorously. 

Paris,  July  24.— Four  dispatches  from 
th,'  French  consul  at  Tien  Tsin,  dated 
severally  July  13.  14.  1"  and  18  and  for- 
warded from  Che  Foo  July  18  to  20.  have 
been  received  by  the  minister  of  foreign

The  dispatch  dated  Julv  13  says  a  cou-

■M  the  foreign  ministers  had  been  be-

the  marines  were  making  a  vigorous  de-

LETTER  FROM  RI'BONALD. 

Is  Dated  June  24,  and  Appeals  For 
Relief. 

London.  July  24.— The  foreign  office 
has  received  a  dispatch  from  the  British 
consul  at  Tien  Tsin.  dated  Saturday, 
July  21.  stating  that  he  had  just  receiv- 
ed a  letter  from  Sir  Claude  MacDonald, 
the  British  minister  at  Pekin,  dated 
June  24,  appealing  for  relief.  There  were 
enough    provisions  at      the    legation 

to  last  a  fortnight,  the  letter  said,  but 
the  garrison  was  unequal  to  the  task 
of  holding  out  against  a  determined  at- 
tack for  many  days.  There  had  been 
forty-four  deaths  and  about  douV>lc  that 
number   wounded. 

The  foreign  office  thinks  the  dispatch 
does  not  affect  the  main  question  of  the 
reported  massacre  of  m*"mbers  of  the 
legation  at  Pekin.

The  Last  Troops  at   Fort 
Set  Out. 

Washington.  July  24.— Four  troops  of 
cavalry,  all  that  remained  at  Fort  Meyer, 
have  left  for  the  far  East  with  instruc- 
tions to  stop  at  Nagasaki  for  orders. 
Tb.ey  are  troops  Band  G  of  Third  caval- 
ly.  which  marched  out  of  the  fort  early 
this  morning  and  left  on  the  train  en 
route  for  San  Francisco  at  9  o'clock,  and 
troops  H  and  I  of  the  Third,  which  left 
here  last  night.  The  troops  muster  4<)u 
men  and  are  commanded  by  Maj.  Kings- 
bury. The  detachment  that  left  last  night 
is  proceeding  via  Atlanta,  and  will  meet 
at  Chattanooga  the  troops  that  went  to- 
day. 

They  are  expected  to  arrive  at  San  Fran- 
cisco "Sunday  or  Monday  and  will  leave 
on  thme  transport  Meade  about  ug.  1. 
The  transport  Aztec  will  carry  the  horses 
and  their  care  takers. 

The  departure  of  these  troops  leaves

FAMINE  JMPENDIN8. 

The  Food  Supplier  at  Tien  Tsin  Aro 
Inadequite. 

Shanghai,  Monday.  July  2^..— (Copyright- 
ed. laOit.  by  the  Associated  Press.)— The 
following  dispatch  from  the  Associated 
Press  correspondent  at  Tien  Tsin  reached 

here  today,  having  been  delayed  twenty 
davs  in   transmission: 

"Tien  Tsin.  Tuesday,  July  3.— Famine 
and  pestilence  are  sure  to  strike  the  re- 
gion of  Tien  Tsin  soon.  Hundreds  of 
thousands  of  Chinamen  are  leaving  their 
homes  in  the  districts  where  fighting  is 
going  on,  without  means  of  support. 

Lieut.  Col.  John  S.  Mallory,  of  the  Forty- 
first  United  States  infantry,  has  arrived 
here  to  act  as  military  observer. 

"The  American  and  British  commanders 
here  have  established  a  censorship  of  cor- 
respondents of  those  nationalities,  to  pre- 
vent the  transmission  of  news  that  might 
tend  to  kindle  international  animosities. 
The  anti-Russian  prejudices  of  certain  of 
the  English  correspondents  caused  this 
action." 


Washington,  July  14.— The  following 
correspondence  betwee  n  the  president  of 
the  United  States  and  the  emperor  of 
China  was  made  public  by  the  state  de- 
partment  today: 

Translation  of  a  cablegram  received 
by  Minister  Wu  on  July  20,  1900,  from  the 
taotal  of  Shanghai,  d.ited  July  19,  1900: 
Have  received  a  telegram  from 
Gevernor  Yuan  (of  Shan  Tung)  dated 
23rd  day  of  this  moon  (July  19),  who, 
having  received  from  the  privy  council 
(at  Pekin)  a  dispatch  embodying  an 
imperial  letter  to  th€  president  of  the 
United  States,  has  instructed  me  to 
transmit  It  to  your  excellency.  The  Im- 
perial message  Is  respectfully  trans- 
mitted as  follows: 

"The  emperor  of  China,  to  his  ex- 
cellency, the  president  of  the  United 
States,  Greeting:  China  has  long  main- 
tained friendly  relations  with  the  United 
States  and  is  deeply  conscious  that  the 
object  of  the  Unitec.  Slates  is  Inter- 
national commerce.  Neither  country 
entertains  the  least  si;spicion  or  distrust 
towards  the  other.  Recent  outbreaks  of 
mutual  antipathy  ijctween  the  people 
and  Christian  missions  caused  the  for- 
eign powers  to  view  Alth  suspicion  the 
l>osition  of  the  imperial  government  as 
favorable  to  the  people  and  prejudicial 
to  the  missions,  with  the  result  that 
the  Takti  forts  we-e  attacked  and 
captured.  Consequent l,v,  there  has  been 
clashing  of  forces  with  calamatous  con- 
sequences. The  situation  has  become 
more  and  more  serious  and  critical.  We 
have  just  received  a  telegraph  memorial 
from  our  envoy  Wu  Ting  Fang  and  it 
is  highly  gratifying  to  us  to  learn  that 
the  United  States  government,  having 
in  view  the  friendly  relations  between 
the  two  countries,  has  taken  a  deep  in- 
terest in  the  present  situation. 

Now,  China,  driven  l)y  the  irresistible 
course  of  events,  has  unfortunately  In- 
curred well  nigh  universal  indignation. 
For  settling  the  prepent  difficulty,  China 
places  special  reliance  in  the  United 
States.  We  address  this  message  to 
your  excellency  in  all  sincerity  and  can- 
didness,  with  the  hope  that  your  ex- 
cellency will  devise  measures  and  take 
the  initiative  in  bringing  about  a  con- 
cert of  the  powers  lor  the  restoration 
of  order  and  peace.  The  favor  of  a  kind 
reply  is  earnestly  requested  and  awaited 
with   the  greatest  arxiety. 

"Twenty-sixth  year,  6th  moon  23rd 
day  (July  19)." 

It  Is.  therefore,  m^■  duty  to  transmit 
the  above  with  the  request  that  your 
excellency,  in  rcspe .tful  oliedience  of 
Imperial  wishes,  will  deliver  the  same 
to  its  high  destinat  on  and  favor  me 
with  a  reply. 

YV  LIEN  YUEN. 

Kwangsu,  2«5th  year,  6th  moon,  day 
23  (July  lit.   1900). 

This  cablegram  was  at  once  com- 
municated to  the  president  at  Canton. 
Ohio,  and  the  following  Is  his  reply: 

The  president  of  ihe  I'nited  States, 
to  the  Plmpcror  of  China.  Greeting:  I 
have  received  your  majesty's  message 
of  the  19th  of  July,  a!  d  am  glad  to  know 
that  your  majesty  recognizes  the  fact 
that  the  goveinment  and  people  of  the 
United  States  desire  of  China  nothing 
but  what  is  just  and  equitable.  The 
purpose  for  which  ue  landed  troops  in 
China  was  the  rescue  of  our  legation 
from  grave  danger,  md  the  protection 
of  the  lives  and  property  of  Americans 
who  are  sojourning  in  China  in  the  en- 
joyment of  rights  guaranteed  them  by 
treaty  and  by  International  law.  The 
same  purposes  are  puiilicly  declared  by 
all  the  powers  which  have  landed  milit- 
ary forces   in   your  majesty's  empire. 

"I  am  to  infer  from  your  majesty's 
letter    that    the    malefactors    who   have 

disturbed  the  peace  of  China,  who 
have  murdered  the  minister  of  Germany 
and  a  member  of  the  Japanese  legation 
and  who  now  hold  i^esieged  in  Pekin 
those  foreign  dlplimatists  who  still 
survive,  have  rtttt  on  y  not  received  any 

favor  or  encouragement  from  ylour 
majesty  but  are  actually  in  rebellion 
against   the    imperia    authority. 

"If  this  be  the  case,  I  most  solemnly 
urge  your  majesty's  i;:avernment  to  give 
public  assurances  whether  the  foreign 
ministers  are  alive,  and  if  so  in  what 
condition.  To  put  ihe  diplomatic  re- 
presentatives of  the  powers  In  im- 
mediate and  free  c<mmunlcatlon  with 
their  respective  governments  and  to  re- 
move all  danger  t>  their  lives  and 
liberty.  To  place  the  Imperial  author- 
ities of  China  in  communication  with 
the  relief  expedltons  so  that  co- 
operation may  be  sei  ured  between  them 
for  the  liberation  of  the  legationers. 
the  protection  of  foreigners  and  the  re- 
storation of  order. 

"If  these  objects  are  accomplished,  it 
is  the  belief  of  this  government  that  no 
obstacles  will  he  fotnd  to  exist  on  the 
pai^  of  the  powers  to  an  amicable 
settlement  of  all  th  ?  questions  arising 
out  of  the  recent  troubles  and  the  friend- 
ly good  officers  of  this  government  will, 
with  the  assent  of  the  other  powers,  he 
cheerfully  placed  at  your  majesty's  dis- 
position for  that  purpose. 

"July  23.   1900."

Washlngton,  July  24.— W.  W.  Rockhill. 
who  has  been  selected  as  special  com- 
missioner by  the  president  to  go  to 
China,  returned  to  Washington  this 
morning  from  Block  Island,  and  began 
Immediate  preparation  for  his  long 
journey.  He  has  decided  to  take  Mrs. 
Rockhill  with  him,  and  sail  from  San 
Francisco  on  the  American  Maru.  of  the 
Japanese  line.  He  will  leave  Mrs.  Rock- 
hill at  Yokohama  or  Nagasaki,  while  he 
goes  on  to  Shanghai.  At  that  point  he 
will     determine     In  which    direction  to 

proceed. 

Mr.  Rockhill  does  not  underestimate 
the  extent  of  the  task  set  for  him  by  the 
president.  He  is  to  act  as  the  eyes  and 
ears  of  the  administration  in  China,  to 
make  careful  inquiry  into  the  existing: 
conditions,  t.^  learn  the  exact  causes  of 
the  present  uprising,  and  report  the 
facts  directly  to  the  president  for  his 
guidance  in  the  ultimate  settlement,  and 
in  framing  his  policy  for  the  future. 

This  task  will  involve  a  large  amount 
of  travel  in  China.  Mr.  Rockhill  is  of 
the  opinion  that  it  will  not  be  sufficient 
to  merely  look  into  conditions  in  Shan 
Tung  prcvince,  and  perhaps  In  Pekin,  if 
he  can  obtain  acce.ss  to  that  capital.  Ho 
must  also  visit  other  provinces  and 
cities,  where  there  is  disquiet  and  dan- 
ger to  foreign  interests,  and  this  will  be 
fraught  with,  perhaps,  per.sonal  risk. 
I%ut  it  is  regarded  as  a  necessary  under- 
taking if  the  president  is  to  l>e  put 
possession  of  a  comprehensive 
standing  of  Chinese  condition.'?. 

It  is  expressly  stated  that  Mr.  Rock- 
bi'l  is  going  to  China  simply  a.'^  an  ob- 
server for  the  president.  This  is  techni- 
cally true,  but  it  also  may  be  stated 
that  he  will  be  entrusted  with  full  dip- 
lomatic power  later  on  if  it  seems  ex- 
pedi«-nt  and  in  the  interest  of  an  early 
settlement  of  the  Chinese  problem  to 
have  dirccllv  on  the  field  an  authorized 
agent  for  the  United  States  government. 
it  is  even  probat)ie  that  he  will  l»e  the 
next  United  States  minister  to  Pekin,  if 
Mr.  Cenger  has  yierished. 

It  is  gathered  here  that  the  German 
government  has  done  something  of  the 
.same  kind,  and  although  the  assurmces 
of  the  death  of  the  German  mini.=tor  to 
Pekin.  Baron  Von  Ketteler,  are  so 
strong  as  to  leave  no  doul»t  of  the  fact 
of  his  death,  yet  it  is  understood  that 
the  credentials  of  Baron  Munn  Von 
Schwarizeuburg.  now  on  his  way  to 
Tlen  Tsin,  are  as  yet  only  those  of  a 
diplomatic  agent  of  the  German  govern- 
ment, making  his  position  thus  corre- 
.-pond  .  losely  to  that  of  Mr.  Rockhill.  It 
al.so  is  noted  that  the  British  govern- 
ment has  taken  similar  action  in  dis- 
patching to  China  Sir  Walter  Hillier.  He 
is  well  known  to  Mr.  Rockhill,  having 
been  a  British  consul  at  a  Chinese  port 
during  the  presence  of  the  American 
fO!iimls5sioncr  In  Pekin  as  secretary  of 
legation. 

There  is  reason  to  believe  that  the 
othrr  European  powr;-s  having  direct 
interests  in  China  will  follow  these  ex- 
ample? and  thus  it  may  happen  that  th*^ 
international  <  ommission  idf-a.  fyiglnally 
contemplated  l)v  the  United  Stntcs  as  a 
mean.--  of  .-ettl'^ment  of  the  Chines*^ 
trouble,  may  take  a  form  acceptable  t<.- 
all  concerned.  It  would  seem  entirely 
i.ossible  th'^t  the  powers  may  decide  to 
take  advantage  of  the  gathering  in 
China  of  such  an  able  body  of  experi- 
enced Orientalists  and  diplomatists  to, 
commit  to  them  the  task  of  reaching  a 
concord,  which  will  harmoniously  settle 
all  of  th«  differences  that  have  arisen, 
not  only  betv.een  China  and  the  poweis. 
I'Ut  i^etween  the  powers  themseives.  as 
a  result  >  f  the  Boxer  uprising. 

Mr.  Roj-khill  will  take  no  staff  with 
him.  relying  upon  picking  up  in  China 
such  help  as  he  may  nt-ed  in  a  clerical 
way.

The  track  runs  between  high  blutfs 
and  the  Mississippi  river  between  St. 
Paul  and  La  Crosse,  and  the  heavy 
rains  of  yesterday  loosened  a  vast 
amount  of  earth  on  a  steep  bluff,  which 
gave  way  shortly  before  the  train  came 
along.  Trains  passing  there  only  a 
short  time  before  report  no  trouble  ex- 
cept a  soft  track. 

A  wrecking  train  has  been  sent  to  the

She  was  the  fond  mother  of  a  fine 
baby.    But  it  was  a  crying  baby.  'She 

unclothed  it 
and  looked  for 
pins.  Nothing 
was  hurting  it. 
She  looked  to 
the  baby's 
food.  It  was 
sweet  and 
wholesome. 
But  the  baby 
still  cried  and 
wailed.  Then 
she  called  the 
doctor.  He 
examined  the 
child  and  said 
"starvation." 
"The  child  is  crying  for  food."  "  But," 
said  the  mother,  "it  has  all  the  food  it 
will  take."  "The  question  of  starva- 
tion" replied  the  doctor,  "is  not  how 
much  food  is  taken  but  how  much  is  as- 
similated and  goes  to  nourish  the  body." 
Pain  in  the  body  is  often  only  the  out- 
er j'  of  starvation.  You  eat  enough  but 
the  stomach  is  not  doing  its  work,  and 
the  nervous  system  is  starving.  Put  the 
stouiach  right  and  the  pains  will  cease, 
together  with  the  uncomfortable  conse- 
quences of  the  condition.  There  is  no 
medicine  made  which  can  equal  Doctor 
Pierce's  Golden  Medical '  Discovery  in 
the  quickness  of  its  action  on  the  stom- 
ach. It  cures  diseases  of  the  digestive 
an<l  nutritive  system,  increases  the  ac- 
tion of  tlie  blood-making  glands,  and 
so  induces  a  proper  and  perfect  distri- 
bution of  the  necessary  nourishment 
to  blood  and  bone,  nerve  and  umscle 
throughout  the  whole  body.  There  is 
no  alcohol,  opium  or  othei  narcotic  con- 
tained in  "Golden  Medical  Discovery." 

'•  I  wi.«h  to  say  to  the  world  that  Dr.  Pierce's 
Golden  Medical  Discovery  has  proved  a  great 
t>iessing  to  ine,"  writes  Mrs.  KUen  E.  Bacon,  of 
Shnteshur\-,  Franklin  Co.,  Mass.,  "as  X  firmly 
believe  I  should  be  in  a  very  bad  .state  now  if  I 
bad  not  taken  it.  Prior  to  September.  1897, 1  had 
doctored  for  ray  stomach  trouble  for  .several 
years,  going  through  a  course  of  treatment  with- 
out auy  real  benefit.  In  September,  iSq6,  I  had 
very  sick  spells  and  gre«v  worse ;  could  eat  but 
littfe.  I  cci'.iinienced  in  September,  1S97,  to  take 
Dr.  Pierce's  medicine  and  in  a  short  time  I  could

TALK  OF  CHURCHILL  WEDDING. 

Lady  Randolph  Says  It  Vfii!  Take 
PI«C9  Kcxt  Saturday. 

Lomion,  July  24.— Laily  Uandolph 
Chui  chill,  who  has  l)een  staying  for  a 
week  with  the  duke  and  duche.ss  of 
Devonshire  at  Eastbourne,  where  the 
prince  of  Wales  is  al.so  a  guest,  insists 
that  her  wedding  to  young  Corn w:; His 
West  will  take  place  on  July  28,  tCie 
appointed  day,  notwithstanding  the  ill- 
ness cf  the  prospective  bridegroom.  She 
declares  that  his  malady  is  not  serious, 
and  that,  at  any  rate,  she  is  better  fitted 
tj  nurse  him  than  anyone  else.  I  hear 
that  West's  illness  is  heart  trouble,  re- 
semblint;  angina  pactoris. 

The  honeymoon  trip  has  been  revLsed, 
and  it  is  now  believed  tCiat  the  cour>le 
will  go  to  .N'orway  first. 

The  connection  of  the  prince  of  IVales 
with  the  romance  is  exciting  extraor- 
dinary interest.  It  is  rumrred  that  he 
suggested  to  Mrs.  West  that  she  wouM 
be  justified  in  having  her  son  kidnapped 
and  kept  away  until  he  had  time  to 
calmly  retlect  upon  the  folly  of  wedding 
a  woman  so  much  older  than  himself. 

There  is  a  curious  story  about  the 
origin  of  this  strange  !ove  match,  vvhica 
is  that  Mrs.  West,  being  a  close  friend  of 
Ladv  Randolph,  ami  living  little  in 
Lonilon  herself,  committed  her  only  son 
to  E.idy  Kandoloh's  care  when  he  en- 
tered the  guards,  with  the  view  esnc- 
ciallv  of  protecting  liim  from  scheming 
ma t.ti makers.  Mrs.  West  is  reported  to 
have  said  jokingly:  •'Even  nuike  love 
t.>  him  your.self  if  necessary  to  keep 
him  from  forming  a  foolish  attach- 
ment. " 

Another  story  is  that  Princess  I^less. 
sister  of  Cornwallis  West,  when  dinin^r 
at  the  Ritz  hotel  in  Paris  last  week,  be- 
came so  excited  in  denouncing  her 
brother's  fiancee  thai  her  words  were 
distinctly  heard  by  many  English  and 
.\mericans  wfao  were  present. 

I^ady  Randolph,  however,  has  friends 
who  stick  to  her.  One  is  the  duchess  -if 
Devonshire,  who  is  arranging  for  a 
hiandsome  joint  weddins  present  to  the 
bride  from  a  number  of  smart  peonle. 
Whether  this  will  take  the  form  of  a 
check  or  a  set  of  jewels  is  undecided. 

Lady  Randolpti  is  said  to  be  appalled 
at  the  number  of  applications  for  seats 
at  the  church  during  the  wedding  and 
by  other  evidences  that  the  ceremonv 
will  draw  a  big  miscellaneous  crowd. 

The  best  authorities  say  she  cannot 
propf  rly  retain  hor  v)resent  title,  as  it  is 
rnlv  derived  from  courtesy,  and  Ihere- 
f  >re  must  be  known  as  Mrs.  Oornwallis 
West.  Jr.

tory repeats  itself,  and  there  are  plenty 
of  people  who  can  ligure  out  a  defeat  for 
the  Rei)ublicans  of  North  Dakota,  in  ca.sc 
of  a  rep'tition  of  jioiiticid  history  in  this 
state  this  year.  Under  normal  condllion.s 
North  Dakota  may  be  relied  on  for  a  good 
Itcpubliian  majority,  but  it  is  not  irre- 
vocably iiound  to  the  Republican  parly, 
it  Is  in'.erestliig  to  comoure  the  condi- 
tions now  with  iiiosi  existing  eight  or 
tea   years  ago. 

Andiew  11.  Burke  wiis  elci-tod  governor 
ot  the  state  in  IHlMJ,  by  a  majority  of  OH.'J. 
During  his  administration  tlie  wave  of 
aiUi-railread,  anti-clcvatir  SL-ntimcat  r«:.se 
to  Us  height.  There  w;is  a  pepular  belief 
that  these  lorporations  were  endeavorin.g 
to  dictate  the  politics  of  the  state.  In 
the  enactment  of  laws,  in  the  proceedings 
of  the  e'liiaiization  board,  in  the  appoint- 
ment 01  ofHcials,  and  in  various  other 
ways,  it  was  believe<l  that  the  results  of 
corporate  iiUlUfnce  coidil  be  plainly  .seen, 
and  there  was  a  strong  popular  belief 
that  the  administration  was  either  direct- 
ly controlled  by,  or  was  in  sympathy 
with  tht  corporations  as  against  tlie  tax- 
payers of  the  stale.  AVbether  this  view 
was  correct  or  incorrect,  does  not  now 
matter.  It  existed,  and  it  had  its  inllu- 
ence. 

There  was  a  protest  from  the  agricul- 
tural classes  .and  a  demand  for  the  elec- 
tion of  a  state  administrulion  which 
should  be  strongly  agricultural  in  its 
make-up  and  its  sympathies.  The  farmers 
of  Wals'i  county  bad  a  tandidale  for  gov- 
ernor in  tlie  person  of  Roger  Allin,  a  plain 
ffirmer,  without  frills  or  polish,  but  a 
man  kmiwn  to  bo  thf>roughly  honest,  and 
to  be  al'ove  suspieion  of  being  dominated 
by  corporate  influence.  What  was  known 
as  the  elevator  interest  desired  the  re- 
election of  (governor  Burke,  and  a  tight 
was  made  against  ,\lliii  in  his  own  couiiiy. 
H.'i'jh  fiiction  claimed  to  be  in  control  of 
the  e  uiity  convention,  and  two  sets  of 
(1  '•  res  were  sent  to  the  Fargo  conven- 
t  ;!i"J.      The    liurke    delegation    was 

s  ..       1(1    the   friends   of  Allin   claimed 

til  ct  ,as  a  deliberate  steal,  a  claim 
whii  .1  few  appear  to  be  willing  to  disiiuti . 
The  charge  was  made  that  the  friends  f>f 
Mr.  Burke  had  organiztd  a  eombine  for 
tlie  purpose  of  coiiti oiling  the  convention 
in  the  i.itrrest  of  the  t  lc\ators  and  rail- 
roads, and  th<'re  were  protest.-;  frum  all 
tinarters.  The  Populist  part.v  st)rang  inlo 
prominenee.  Shortridge  was  nominated, 
and  ho  was  elected  by  a  majority  01  17."in 
against  Burke,  a  change  of  SL'OS  voies  in 
two  years.  This  was  the  result  of  a  pro- 
test on  the  i>art  of  the  jieople  against 
what  they  considered  to  be  the  rule  of  a 
cliuue.  which  was  endeavoring  to  control 
the  affairs  of  {\u-  state  In  a  manner  un- 
popular aiT<l   dargeroiis. 

This  >oar  the  euiiilltions  are  dlffei«':it,

Winship  than  to  those  of  any  other  man. 
During  the  ten  years  since  its  a<lopi;on

upon  Idmself  the  anathemas  of  every 
bliiid-pigger  in  the  state.  The  law  has 
been  openly  violaK  d  in  many  of  the  West-

The  facts  concerning  this  s.\stem  are  s:> 
notorious  that  it  is  unneces.sary  to  go  Into 
the  subiect  in  detail.  While  there  has  been 
some  actlvltv  In  the  enforcement  of  the 
law  on  the  "slojie.  It  has  hardly  -"erved 
to  do  more  than  arouse  the  oopositioii  ol 
the  men  whose  interests  it  most  directly 
affected,  ami  a  body  of  delegates  came  in

thing pos.'^ible  to  prevent  the  state  adniai- 
istratlori  from  i«issiiig  into  the  hands  ef

the  arch  enemv  whom  they  desired  to  de- 
stroy This  thev  have  very  little  hope  In 
being  able  to  do,  and  they  were  pti«p«reil 
to  accept  Winship  for  governor,  but  :  . 
m.ike  a  desperate  stnicgle  for  the  nomm-

would  be  in  svmpathy  with  the  liquor  ele-

Perhaps  the  most  startling  feature  of  the 
announcement  is  that  Disston  in  his  will, 
which  was  written  In  1897,  called  his  "be- 
loved friend  ■  Rac  I  .\scii.  She  has  always 
been  known  here  as  Mrs.  R.  A.  Disston. 
Not  a  single  word  of  slander  is  uttered 
against  her. 

Mrs.  Disston,  as  everybody  In  this  part  of 
Maryland  likes  to  call  h-^r,  has  endeared 
herself  u)  the  whole  community  by  so 
many  acts  of  benevolence  and  kindness 
that  no  one  could  be  found  to  throw  a 
stone.  For  years  she  has  been  a  "beloved

FIVE  PEHSONS  DBOWMED, 

Entire  Bathing  Party  Lost  In  a 
California  Lako. 

Ventura,  Cal.,  July  21.— News  comes  from 
the  eastern  part  of  this  county  of  the 
drowning  of  live  persons  in  Wiley's  lake. 
The  dead  are:  Mrs.  Byron  H.  Wiley,  aged 
40  years;  A.  Wiley,  daughter  of  Mrs,  B. 
H.  Wiley,  aged  i;;  years;  Miss  Foshuii, 
aged  IS;  Broderick,  a  young  man;  unknown 
boy,   aged  about  13. 

It  was  an  exceedingly  hot  day  and  Mrs. 
Wiley's  little  jiarty  of  live  went  in  bath- 
ing. They  went  out  on  a  raft,  which  su(l- 
denly  began  to  wobble  and  some  of  the 
bathers  fell  into  the  water.  The  oihers 
made  a  desperate  attempt  to  rescue  their 
companions  and-  in  so  doing  perished. 

Master  Wiley,  a  child  of  about  10  years, 
stood  on  the  bank  and  witnessed  the  awful 
event,  too  frightened  to  run  for  aid.  He 
has  not  yet  recovered  from  the  shock. 
The  lake  Is  situated  near  the  Wiley 'resi- 
dence, some  six  miles  from  Filmore.  It 
does  not  cover  an  acre  of  ground  and  the 
deepest   portion   is   but    twenty   feet   deep. 


STATE  BANKiXG  LAW. 

Examiner  Pope  Oesifous  of  Sscuring 
Important  Amandmsnts, 

St.  Paul.  July  21.— T.'>e  imblic  exam- 
iner's department  will  probably  ask  for 
a  number  of  changes  in  the  state  bank- 
ing law  at  the  next  session  of  the  legis- 
lature. 

For  one  thing,  the  legislature  will 
!M<bably  be  asked  to  make  the  stato 
law  conform  to  the  national  law  witli 
resard  to  overdue  notes.  The  state  law 
provides  l^iat  notes  upon  which  no  in- 
terest has  been  paid  for  one  year  or 
mere  shall  not  be  counted  in  the  assets 
of  the  bank,  but  .shall  be  charged  off, 
unle.ss  they  are  well  secured  "or"  in  tht 
process  of  collection.  Under  this  pro- 
vision it  is  bnly  necessary  for  the  banker 
to  show  the  examiner  that  the  note  is 
in  the  h?.nds  of  an  attorney  for  collec- 
tion, and  ICie  examiner  can  do  lui  more. 
The  national  banking  law  provides  that 
such  »oaper  must  be  both  secured  "and" 
in  the  process  of  collection.  The  differ- 
ence in  the  conjunctions  make.=  a  v.oild 
of  difference  in  the  power  of  the  bank- 
ins  de:)arlment  to  enforce  the  spirit  of 
the  law. 

Some  new  regulations  with  regard  to 
loaning  money  on  grain  chec'rCs  will 
probably  be  recommended  also,  as  too 
often  elevator  men  borrow  money  on 
wheat.  Borrowing  money  on  stored 
wheat  is  equivalent  to  mortga.ging  other 
people's  pn>perty,  and  it  is  t'.ie  ban  lit  r 
who  stands  to  lose  if  the  elevator  man 
proves  dishonest.

Expects  That  tha  Dei:!Ocrats  Will 
Win  h  Montana. 

Chica.no.  July  21.— .Senator  William  A. 
Clark  of  Montiuia.  will  "open  his  barrel" 
as  soon  as  he  returns  from  Europ'.  He 
was  at  the  Auditorium  annex  Sunday,  ami 
left  that  night  for  New  York.  He  declineil 
to  tiiiy  how  much  of  his  wealth  he  would 
illfiw  to  escape,  but  h?-  said  that  he  had 
tht'  electhin  of  the  Democratie  national 
and  slate  liekets  sulHcientl>-  at  heart  lo 
cau.se  liini  to  make  liberal  conlrlbutioiis  to 
th  •  i-ampaign  fund. 

.\imusi  will  be  spent  by  the  senator  in 
Kurope,  where  he  hopes  to  rest  from  po- 
litical anil  business  cares.  On  Ids  return 
he  will  go  to  the  Slate  In  which  he  lias 
jiolitical  residence  Jind  enter  vigorously 
into  the  light  lor  Bryan  and  Stevenson.  It 
is  his  amMtion  lo  maintain  his  factionil 
;^uprem,icy  ov  r  Marcus  Daly  in  the  stale. 

"The  people  are  aci|llaillled  with  the 
methods  of  the  copper  iiiist  in  Montana." 
declared  S'>nal'ir  Clark,  "ami  will  not  tol^ 
erati-  them  longi-r.  We  will  elect  the  leg- 
islature, I  think,  beyond  any  doulit." 

"Will  Bryan  carry  Montana?"  fche  sen- 
ator was  askt-d. 

"Un<)uesllonably.  AVe  are  all  lishting  10 
give  Bryan  ami  Stevenson  a  majority  in 
Montana,  and  I  hope  nothing  will  be  doiv,'' 
out  of  j)erson.il  feeling  to  hinder.  The  na- 
tional committee  iiassed  on  the  (piestion  of 
rtgularit.w  and  there  .■should  be  no  dissent." 

When  asked  if  it  were  true  that  he  h.id 
made  a  $.'ii»,<»<Hi  contribution  to  the  Demo- 
cratic campaign  fund.  Senator  Clark  said: 

"I  mu^t  decline  to  give  the  amounts  cd" 
any  contributions  I  may  have  made  in  the 
past  or  intend  to  make  in  the  future.  I  did 
conlrlbiue,  however,  and  Inieiid  lo  sub- 
scribe mor?  money  later. 

"Mv  position  in  the  lighting  political 
forces  in  Montana  is  merely  that  of  a  'high 
private."  .-Vfter  I  get  some  rest  in  Kurope  1 
shall  go  into  the  ticrht  to  do  all  1  can."

Chicago.  July  2i.— A  ea'olegram  from 
Rome  says:  Arch'.ji.shop  Iixland  Is  expect- 
ed here  next  Saturday  and  will  rem.iin  f<u- 
ten  days.  He  will  receive  a  special  aud.- 
ence  with  the  pojie. 

Since  Archbishoi).  Corrigan's  recent  visit 
much  imporia!;ce  is  given  to  the  forthcom- 
ing interview.  There  is  a  strong  Je.-uii 
current  trying  to  undermine  Archbishop 
Irelaiurs«i)osit)on  in  the  Vatican,  but  the 
pope  lias  come  to  look  uiion  him  more  fav- 
orablv.  and  the  importance  of  the  visit  has 
grown  since  th?  speech  of  Ardibishoi)  Ire- 
land at  the  dedication  of  the  Bafayeile 
monument  in  Paris. 

It  i.s  clear  that  Archbishop  Ireland  is 
first  an  .\iniM-ieaii  ;ind  then  a  (.'alholic  pre- 
late. The  Vatican  would  prefer  il  to  lie 
vice  versa.  However,  the  pope  fears  open- 
ly to  rebuke  .\rclibi.shop  Ireland's  frank- 
ness   regarding   1  olitical    matters. 


BETURNS  FROM  KUMASSI. 

Rellsf  Force  and  tha  Rescued  Arrive 
at  Fumsu. 

Fumsu,  Jidy  21.— The  Kumassi  relief  col- 
umn has  just  arrivc<l  here  from  Eumassi, 
where  it  left  July  17,  bringing  the  old  gar- 
rison—about twenty  fairly  lit  men,  seventy 
broken  down  invalids,  and  some  women 
and  chiltireii  in  a  pitiful  condition. 

The  success  of  Col.  U'iicocks  was  due  to 
choice  of  a  route  not  suspected  by  the 
Ashantis.  who  had  concentrated  in  thou- 
s.inds  along  the  eastern  route,  but  in  much 
sni.iller  numbers  along  tht;  western  route, 
via  I'iccl,  where  Col.  V\'iicocks  advanced. 
As  it  was,  the  Ashantis  were  active  anil 
the  roads  knee  deep  in  mud.  Col  Wilcocks 
took  a  couple  of  villa.ges  by  bayonet 
(barge.  I>ey<md  Ekwanda  he  found  ihe 
tribesmen  in  a  strong  iKisition  loidiind 
ritoekuiles.  It  was  a  large  war  camp  with 
the  chief  command  of  the  Asiianti  army, 
esiimali'd  at  Khjo  men.  After  a  h".ivy  tire 
on  both  sides  for  nearly  an  hour.  Col.  Wil- 
cocks ordereil  a  bayonet  charge  and  tht 
Hoops  ru.-hed  the  thick  brush,  cheering 
vigorously.  The  .A.shantls  did  not  wait 
for  the"  bayonets,  but  tied  In  confusion. 

The  casualties  of  Col.  Wilcocks  were  two 
officers  wounded,  ivvo  natives  killed  and 
seventeen  wounded.  On  finding  Kumassi 
hi  such  terrible  condition.  Col.  Wilcocks, 
after  culling  brc.sh  and  ln:rning  the  bodiis. 
placed  the  whole  f(jrce  upon  half  rations, 
an  arrangement  chi-erfully  borne.  No  op- 
pijsition  was  mi-t  on   tlie  return.

Good  Weather  For  the  Crops 

In  Northwest— Corn 

Was  Weak. 


Dulmh  flo«rd  of  Traih'.  July  21.— Tae 
wluat  was  weak  and  low«r  during  the 
early  jKirt  of  tiKlay"s  .session.  The  wcak- 
nes.s  at  the  opt-nlns  was  ilue  to  lower 
cables.  tint>  wt  .ither  in  the  Northwest  for 
the  KrowinK  crops  and  an  absence  of  spec- 
uLilh-e  demand.  There  was  a  slight  rally 
so<m  after  ihe  opening,  but  it  w,is  foHowt  J 
by  a  s-iump  due  tf»  the  weakm  ss  in  corn. 
This  caused  c»v<'ring  and  another  ral;y 
t'Hik  '.>l;i(.e.  Prices  soon  eased  off  again 
and  tnt  market  ruled  dull  and  weak,  de-

■d   IsC.   Following   were 


for  export.  Bradstreets  made  a  decrease 
in  the  worlds  visible  of  about  2.0Oii,uxi  bus. 
Cash  demand  slack.  Estiri\ated  receipts, 
IM'  i-ars. 

Corn  ruled  weak  in  sympathy  witn 
wheat,  and  on  rains  in  corn  belt.  Local 
bulls  sold  freely,  also  bears.  At  the  de- 
cline there  was  very  good  cash  demand 
which  steadied  the  market,  but  August 
closed  %c  and  September  Ic  lower  ihun 
last  night.  Liverpool  ciosed  V«d  lower. 
Country  nfferings  light;  the  seaboard  re- 
pori'.d  "very  large  business  I'.oiie  there  for 
export.  Bradstreets  visible  showed  de- 
crease of  l.lt>6.<XH'  bus.  Receipts  at  prim- 
ary points  were  M6.000  bus,  against  >vd5,iJ00 
I  us  last  year.  Clearances  from  thf  At- 
lantic seaboard  were  376.(XK»  bus.  The  cash 
situation  is  strong  and  August  sold  today 
•4C'  over  September.  We  think  todays  de- 
cline is  overdone.  The  legitimate  situa- 
tion warrants  higher  prices.  Estimated 
receipis.  250  cars. 

There  was  only  moderate  trading  in  oats 
todav.  and  the  market  ruled  easier  in 
svmpathv  with  wheat  and  corn,  cosing  Uc 
iV.wer  than  last  night.  Country  offermgs 
light,  while  there  was  better  cash  de- 
mand and  fairly  large  business  reported. 
Clearances  from  the  Atlantic  seaboard.

T'!<!visiCT'.s  opened  firm  on  very  light  run 
ot  hogs  and  stronger  market  at  the  yards. 
but  vielded  when  grain  liid  on  very  heavy 
Silling  by  grainmen.  Pork  held  well,  but 
lard  weak  on  liquidation.  L'joks  to  us  .i.^ 
if  the  product  has  gone  from  weak  himds 
tt>  strong.  We  are  getting  very  small  re- 
ceipts of  hogs  everywhere  and  our  stocKs. 
espec-ially  ribs  and  sides  are  down  to  dan-

Heavv  rains  have  fallen  over  Iowa.  Kan- 
sas and  Eastern  Nebraska,  and  light  and 
scattering  showers  in  other  portions  of  the 
grain  region.     Warm  weather  continues. 

T.  indicatt.<  inappreciable  rainfall.  *X^ax- 
imum  for  yesterday.  **Miinmuin  for  twi  n- 
ty-foii-  hours,  ending  8  a.  m.,  75th  nieii- 
dian  time. 

NOTE— The  average  maximum  and  min- 
imum temperatures  and  the  average  rain- 
fall are  made  up  at  each  center  from  the 
actual  number  of  reports  received.  The 
•state  of  weather"  is  that  prevailing  at 
time  of  ol.)servation. 


returns  will  be  the  outcome. 

Heavy  r  lins  all  over  the  corn  belt  start- 
ed a  weak  market;  prices  losin.g  quite 
seriously.  The  crowd  generally  assiiming 
that  there  could  be  no  more  dry  weather 
talk  on  this  crop.  There  is  no  doubt  in  tlie 
world  but  that  the  corn  crop  is  very  ma- 
terially helped  by  the  rains  that  are  fall- 
ing, but  we  are  inclined  to  dispute  the 
logic  of  an  84  brertk  in  September  corn,  on 
news  of  that  character  as  that  option 
does  not  represent  the  growing  crop,  but 
th<'  old,  of  wliich  we  believe  most  people 
will  admit  there  is  but  little  back  and 
which  tlie  character  of  cash  business  late- 
ly has  1'  ssened  still  more  materially. 
This  decline  has  been  a  radical  one.  specu- 
latice  purely  and  it  seems  consistent  to 
look  for  reactions  for  speculative  rea 
Suns,  even  if  the  legitimate  side  were  not 
.<o  prominently  been  used  as  usual  argu- 
ment. 

The  oat  market  has  been  relativei.v  firm, 
off  only  a  small  fraction  in  spite  of  the 
severe  Ijreak  In  wneat  and  corn.  Th_ere 
was  talk  of  Injury  by  the  agricultural 
commissioner  of  Iowa  to  the  oat  crop  in 
thtit  ^tate  from  too  mucn  rain.

WEARES  REPORT. 
Chicago,  July  24.— The  wheat  market  to- 
day has  been  excessively  nervous;  the 
market  speculatively  small,  the  ups  and 
downs  being  of  the  most  startling  char- 
acter. The  market  opened  off  easy  wun 
cables  %d  lower  ar.»,l  large  Liverpool  re- 
ceipts, but  the  Minneap<dls  Journal,  which 
was  one  of  the  most  i>rominent  causes  ot' 
the  recent  weakness  by  writing,  a  verj 
bearish  article,  reversed  its  opinion  ui  - 
blushinglv  this  morning  which  creai-  i  j 
some  recovery.  A  quick  decline  near  the 
close  with  heavy  selling  lost  ail  the 
strength  which  had  devoleped.  The  mar- 
ket is  decidedly  puzzling,  one  feature  is 
the  fact  that  the  declines  are  not  so 
reai'.ily  brought  about  as  advances,  wilii 
evidences  of  excellent  buying  on  aii 
breaks  by  people  whose  company  on  that 
side  augijrs  for  the  future  of  wheat.  The 
market,  however,  is  speculatively  very 
small,  the  outsider  tipparently  awaltius 
some  special  inspinitlon  before  taking  1 
hold.  There  are  bear  Influences  at  work 
undoubtedly,  most  notably  the  pressure 
of  the  Southwestern  wheat.  When  that  i:t 
lessened,  as  it  will  be  later  on  together 
v.ith  the  prospect  of  a  very  small  spring 
wheat  movement,  a  new  motive  for  bull- 
ing wheat  will  readily  be  found,  in  the 
meantime  the  market  is  a  good  scalping 
one;  a  purchase  on  all  breaks  and  fcr 
,  scalping  purposes  only  a  sale  on  rallies. 
1  We  would  advise,  however,  the  (ifinserva- 
I  tive  taking  hold  on  these  declines  for 
Investment    purposes    and    believe    good

WEAKNESS 
IN  STOCKS 

Net  Declines  Except  In  a 

Ff w  Gases  on  New  York 

Exchange. 

CLOSING  WAS  WEAK 


And    Rather    Dull    at   the 

Lowest  Point  of  the 

Session. 


New  Y'ork.  July  24  —There  was  no  strik- 
ing changes  at  the  opening  of  the  stocK 
market  and  such  as  there  were  were  very 
evenly  divifled  between  gains  and  losses. 
Tennesse  Coal  suffered  from  realizing; 
Pennsylvania  rose  a  sharp  fraction  and 
Sugar  fluctuated  uncertainly.  Dealings 
were  not  on  a  large  .scale.  The  general 
li.«t  did  not  respond  to  any  extent  to  the 
rapid  marking  up  of  a  few  special  stocks. 
Sugars  advance  to  125»,  Tobacco's  to  96, 
and  St.  Louis  &  Southwestern  preferred 
to  above  27  did  not  create  any  sympathet- 
ic movement  in  allied  stocks.  A  break  of 
l-'a  in  Brooklyn  Transit  and  effective  sell- 
ing of  the  Grangers.  Pacific  and  Baltimore 
&  Ohio  sent  most  stocKs  below  ves,ler- 
day  s  close  before  U  o  clock.  Declines 
reached  a  point  or  over  in  manv  cases. 
New  Y'ork  Air  Brake  dropped  "4U  and 
Teiinessee  Coal  2^*.  Trading  became  dull 
and  Ihe  absence  of  hoavv  offerings  stea- 
died the  market.  Just  before  middav  a 
renewed  raid  on  Sugar  caused  short  selling 
of  other  stocks.  Brooklyn  Transit  ruled 
over  2  points  below  the  highest,  and  sub- 
stHutial  lo.sses  occurre*d  in  numerous 
cases.  American  Tobacco  was  a  notable 
exception,  rising  23|,  on  heavv  purchases. 
Bonus  continued  dull  and  unsettled. 

American  Tobacco  continued  its  advance 
after  the  general  market  had  turned 
downwards  on  realizing,  rising  to  near  i>'J 
and  then  falling  below  »7.  Sugar  fell  back 
to  last  night's  level.  and  BrooKlvn  Transit 
was  forced  down  to  36.  The  ra'ilroad  list 
and  the  steel  stocks  went  lower  than  this 
mc.rn:ng.  There  was  a  slight  temporary 
rally,  but  the  clo.'^ing  was  weak  and  rather 
dull  at  the  low  point  and  at  net  declines 
except  In  a  few  cases.

STORY  OF  A  PLOT. 


Schtma  at  Paris  to  Kill  a  Chlni se 
Diplomat. 

Paris,  July  24.— It  has  just  leaked  out 
that  a  plot  existed  at  the  end  of  June 
to  assassinate  the  Cliinese  minister  here, 
Yu  Keng',  or  a  member  of  the  legation 
at  Paris.  The  secretary  of  the  legation, 
Maj.  Parma,  an  Italian,  in  an  intervlev.' 
todai',  admitted  that  a  report  in  circu- 
lation to  that  effect  was  true.  Maj. 
Parma  says: 

"Six  men,  whose  nationality  has  nDt 
been  established,  conspired  to  secure  en- 
try- to  the  legation  and  assassinate  with 
knives  a  member  of  the  legation.  I 
advised  the  cominlssary  of  police,  who 
took  measures  to  check  the  project,  and 
natliing  has  since  been  heard  of  it." 


HE  NAILS  ONE. 


J.  H.  Young,  Grand  Marais' 

Yearning  Bachelor,  Said 

to  Have  a  Bride. 

When  the  fierce,  cold  winds  whistle  round 
the  happy  home  of  J.  H.  Young,  of  Grand 
Marais,  next  winter,  its  safe  to  wager 
that  he  won't  know  but  what  they  are  a 

scorching  simoon  sweeping  with  resistless 
fury  across  a  blazing,  blistf'ring  desert  oi 
the  tropics.  From  Minneapolis  comes  the 
report  that  he  has  fallen  frantically  and 
frenzied l.v  in  lovj  with  a  bewitching  bru- 
nette beauty,  having  200  portions  of  circu- 
lating medium  in  her  own  name  and  a  title 
of  M.  D.  after  it. 

An  account  of  Mr.  Young's  yearning  to 
become  conjugially  matrimonified  was 
published  last  evening.  He  came  down  the 
north  shore  in  search  of  a  wife.  He  didn't 
want  her  to  be  too  tremendously  good- 
looking  because  he  was  of  a  jealous  dispo- 
sition and  had  man.v  neighbors.  He  made 
inquiries  here  and  found  that  there  were 
-several  thousand  amiable  girls  that  would 
make  charming  autunn  brides,  but  all  Du 


luth  girls  we' 
to  keep  step  ' 
or  tear  the 
mothers  ami 
shoes. 

Being  a  ma 
not  give  up 
where  he  th<. 
encountering 
of  pretty  girl 
ed  to  be  a  frii

vilderingly  beautiful

would  be  safe  from 
cinating  delegation 
jerson  that  nurport- 
lim  that  down  there 
.  lAijuisitely  gowned,  re- 
dolent of  faint,  subtle  aromas,  with  per- 
fect manners  and  distinctioti  of  bearing, 
but  thai  the  crow's  feet  had  left  their  last- 
ing imprint.  That  description  struck  his 
jealous  fancy  and  he  then  went  to  Minne- 
apolis and  notified  the  newspapers  that  he 
was  looking  for  a  bride  on  wh<5m  he 
could  bestow  all  the  wealth,  eminence  and 
social  position  of  his  happy  north  shoi'e 
home. 

According  to  press  dispatches,  he  didn't 
find  the  girls  so  very,  very  coy  either.  It  is 
said  that  some  of  them  sai  up  all  night  in 
ordtr  to  be  first  on  the  ground.  Then 
blinking  blindly,  at  what  seemed  to  them, 
the  mornings  solar  vagaries  they  called  on 
Mr.  Y'liung.  Tht-re  were  blondes,  bru- 
nettes, soubreltelets  an<l  damseletlets. 
Statuesque  spinsters  wt»re  followeil  clo.se-

sa.vs  that  Mr.  Young  was  dazzled  and 
thought  the  onl.v  ihin.g  he  could  do  to  re- 
lieve his  brain  was  to  go  out  in  the  fields 
and  watch  the  bees  and  butterflies.  Then 
the  laily  ph>-sician  came  along  and  pourtd 
out  all  the  ard<ir  of  her  throbin.g  young 
soul,  and  according  to  the  ver.v  latest, 
the  wedding  bells  are  being  jirepared  to 
ring  out  with  a  soft,  swoet  cadence  to 
warm  up  the  long  cold  and  neglected 
Young  hearthstone.  And  the  worst  of  it 
Is  that  the  bride-elect  is  said  to  be  ;i  bru- 
nette beauty  and  almost  up  to  the  Duluth 
standard  of  feminine  loveliness.

CHINESE  EXECUTION. 

The  following  is  the  story  of  a  Chinese 
execution,  as  told  by  Sir  Robert  Hart,  an 
eye-witness,   according   to  an   exchange. 

"Eight  prisoners  were  to  lie  beheaded. 
The  mandarin,  who  was  the  execution!  r, 
sat  in  ati  open  booth,  and  as  the  eight  me.i 
marched  by  him  each  was  marked  on  tin 
forehead.  Seven  of  the  prisoners  were  to 
suffer  for  robbing  and  murdering  an  old 
man.  The  eighth  was=  a  Mandarin  wi.o  had 
been  degraded  for  an  offense  whKh  he  de- 
clared he  never  committed.  Once  he  bad 
been  a  great  man  in  China,  even  as  Li 
uHng  Chang.  He  had  been  a  prisoner  for 
many  years,  when  suddenly  his  exccation 
was  "ordered  bv  the  viceroy  of  Quang- 
Tung. 

"The  seven  first  men  were  ex.'cuted 
neatly  and  well,  but  when  the  executioner 
came  to  the  deposed  mandarin  he 
struggled  and  declined  to  put  forth  ni:J 
neck,  wildl.v  vociferating  that  he  was  in- 
nocent and  had  been  unjustly  accused  and 
condemned.  The  excutioner  caught  his  pig- 
tail and  dragged  his  head  forward  Jrom 
tho  body,  with  the  result  that  the  head 
was  severed  only  after  many  blows  had 
been  struck.  The  head  and  body  were 
terribly  mutilated.  When  the  head  finally 
fell  the  mouth  opened  and  closed,  as  if 
still  trying  to  articulate  the  words,  "In- 
justlcp,  injustice.' 

"The  body  remained  kneeling,  and  the 
arms  worked  frantically  in  protest  lor 
some  time,  till  knficked  over.  The  spec- 
tators, theu  ran  with  bread  and  other  soft 
foodstuffs,  which  they  dipi>ed  into  the 
blood  and  ate.  the- superstition  being  that 
this  man  had  died  a  hero,  and  that  the 
blood  of  a  brave  man  would  give  courage 
to  tho.se  tasting  it. 

"Among  the  favorite  palace  deaths  is 
Ftoning.  The  victim  is  stretched  out  on  his 
back,  arms  and  legs  extended,  and  a  man 
sits  on  each  of  the  limbs.  The  executioner 
appears  with  a  large  stone.  If  the  victim 
has  the  money  to  pay  for  a  speedy  death 
his  head  is  crushed  at  once.  Otherwise  tRe 
executioner  may  torture  him  at  will.^ad- 
ministering  blows  as  he  pleases,  until 
the  victim  dies  of  pain  and  loss  of  blood.  "

KITCII'.N    HINTS. 

Enamel,  marble,  metal  and  tiling  play 
an  important  part  in  the  kitchens  of.  the 
wealthy,  but  several  cans  of  ei),imel 
paint  coupled  with  an  ejiergetic  woman 
will  work  W"ind<-rs  in  a  dingy  kitchen  and 
transform  it  into  one  easily  ket>i  <-i<-an 
and  sanitary.  The  sink,  too.  can  be  fitt»d 
with  a  stopper  after  the  manni  r  of  the 
bathtub,  a  divisiein  put  into  it  and  it  will 
answer  at  tiie  .'-.time  time  for  the  <llsh  pun 
and  rinsing  i)nn.  The  dislits  can  be. 
washed  at  one  end,  rinsed  in  the  otlier  and 
the  wall  r  run  off  and  warrned  at  ■will. 
One  m.ist  have  a  line  sieve  wire  under  the 
stopper  to  catch  ali  particl-^s  or  the  pipes 
will  become  dodged.  This  should  be  lifted 
out  to  be  (leaned. 

The  woman  who  does  her  own  wi;rk 
should  see  first  and  foremost  that  her 
kitch'-n  is  convenient  an<1  everything  donn 
that  common  sense  can  surgest  to  lighten 
her  labor.  Housework  is  no  easy  ta.=;k. 
but  it  can  be  made  much  pleasaiii(.r  than 
it  is  if  women  would  take  tluii  chief 
workroom  in  hand  and  adapt  It  to  their 
needs  and  then  get  the  latest  ind  best 
tools.  It  is  to  be  regrttted  there  are  not 
more  women  architects,  for  women  un- 
derstand better  than  men  the  uitds  of  a 
house,  and  no  doubt  could  plan  one  much 
more  suitable  for  the  wants  of  a  famiiy 
and  the  work  of  its  mistress.

field  pieces  in  use  now  throw  a  projectile  j  complete  satisfa(  tion  and  that  they  can- 
not be  explained  fully  by  the  theory  of 
the  earth's  rotation.  Furthermore,  he 
asserts  that  the  movements  of  the  earth 
could  not  carry  the  entire  atmosphere 
along  with  it,  as  motion  can  hp  com- 
municated to  bcKliefl,  the  parts  of  which 
have  no  connection  with  one  another, 
only  if  they  are  inclosed  by  a  solid.  He 
argues,  therefore,  that  if  the  earth 
really  rotated  from  west  to  east  at  the 
rate  necessary  to  complete  a  revolution 
in  twenty-four  hours  the  atmosphere 
would  appear  to  flow  from  east  to  west 
at  the  same  rate.  In  other  words,  Pro- 
fessor Schoepffer  says  if  the  earth  really 
turned  upon  Its  axis  there  would  be  a 
constant  wind  blowing  1250  feet  per  sec- 
ond, or  900  miles  an  hour,  at  the  equator. 
It  is  a  well-known  fact,  however,  that 
no  such  constant  breeze  exists. 

"We  cannot  perceive  the  rotation  of 
the  earth  in  anj-  way,"  he  says.  "VJe 
cannot  demonstrate  it.  There  are  no  air 
currents  which  we  can  justly  regard  as 
— Or  even  suppose  to  be — consequences  of 
this  rotation.  TJiese  facts  ought  to  be 
proof  enough  against  a  ixjtation  of  the 
earth.  Indeed,  we  wholly  lack  a  caii- 
diticn  indicating  rotation  which  can  be 
substantiated.  Must  it  not  ar>:iear  al- 
most absurd  in  us,  preoccupied  by  what 
they  have  taught  us  in  school,  to  accept 
a  theory  of  the  rotation  of  the  earth 
whictt  neither  Is  nor  con  be  proved? 
Must  we  not  wonder  at  the  readiness  of 
the  learned  of  the  entire  world,  from 
the  time  of  Copernicus  and  Kepler,  to 
accept  the  conception  of  the  rotation  of 
the  earth— and  then  search  afterward, 
now  for  nearly  three  and  a  half  cen- 
turies, for  arguments  to  maintain  it, 
but,  of  course,  without  being  able  to 
find  them?" 

If  the  professor  is  right,  all  the  school 
books  will  need  revision  and  many  of 
the  works  of  the  astronomers  and  scien- 
tists will  be  valueless.

Klevtinn. 


Four  years  ago 
the  cry  was  raised 
that  the  election  of 
Mr.  Hryan  to  the 
pre'sidency  would  be 

disastrous  to  business  relations.  Of  course 
it  \vas  a  base4ess  claim,  made  solely  for 
campaign  purposes,  but  it  undoubtedly  de- 
ceivenl  matiy  people  and  thus  had  the  in- 
tended effect.  The  politicians  on  the  Re- 
I>ul>!ican  side  may  raise  the  same  cry  this 
year,  and  it  may  therefore  be  proper  to 
hear  what  the  leading  financial  publication 
in  this  country,  the  Cnitetl  States  Investor, 
a  stout  advocate  of  the  gold  standard,  has 
to  say  on  this  point.  Here  it  is:  "Tr>-»  as 
we  may  to  hide  the  fact,  it  is  clear  that 
this  country,  and  apparently  the  whole 
world,  is  verj^ing  ufon  another  period  of 
lessened  activity  and  induced  profits  in 
general  business.  The  movement  has  al- 
ready progressed  far  enough  on  this  side 
of  the  Atlantic  to  .necrssitate  the  closing 
•  lown  of  a  good  many  mills  and  factories 
and  the  partial  -suspension  tif  a  great  many 
more,  resulting  in  the  enforceil  Idleness  ot 
a  very  largf  number  of  oi>eratives.  It 
would  l»e  a  solace  if  this  turn  in  the  situa- 
tion could  be  regarded  mainly  as  the  inevi- 
table accompaniment  of  the  pre*ildential 
campaign,  but  that  view  Is  not  to  be  en- 
tertained. The  presidential  election  will  no 
doubt  a  little  later  on  produce  its  effect 
upon  the  situation,  l>ut  the  slowing  up  in 
general  business  so  far  witttessed  may  be 
traced  princii>ally  to  natural  trade  con- 
ditions." 


THE  BOERS'  StCCESS. 

The  news  from  South  Africa,  telling 
of  the  cutting  of  Lord  Roberts*  line  of 
communications  and  the  capture  of  100 
Hie^hlanders  and  a  supply  train  by  the 
Boer  forces,  under  the  command  of  Gen. 
Dewet.  will  not  be  pleasant  news  to  the 
British  people,  many  of  whom  have 
been  regarding  the  Boer  war  as  practi- 
cally ended.  It  must  prove  particularly 
disheartening  to  the  British  at  this  time 
when  the  Chinese  trouble  has  assumed  a 
serious  phase,  and  the  necessity  of  a 
large  Biitish  army  in  that  quarter  of 
the  globe  may  appear  at  any  moment. 
Indeed,  strong  British  reinforcements 
are  needed  there  now,  but  Lord  Roberts 
is  not  willing  to  send  more  than  10,000 
of  his  men  to  China,  because  he  needs 
all  the  240,000  British  troops  in  South 
Africa.  The  Boers  are  actively  engaged 
in  harassing  the  British  lines  of  com- 
munication, and  even  with  the  enormous 
army  at  hi.s  disposal.  Lord  Robf  rt.s  has 
been  unable  to  crush  them.  It  would 
not  be  very  surprising  to  receive  new.« 
before  long  that  Roberts  had  been  at- 
tacked and  driven  out  of  Pretoria.  Of 
course,  the  Boers  may  not  have  sufflcient 
strength  to  accomplish  this  result,  but 
certainly  the  present  situation  I3  very 
.«ati.~factory  to  them. 

There  have  been  some  remarkable 
stories  from  British  sources  in  South 
Africa  since  the  war  started.  It  will  be 
remembered  that  when  Gen.  Roberts 
was  censured  by  the  English  press  sev- 
eral months  ago  for  his  inactivity,  he 
replied  that  150.000  foreigners  had  land- 
ed at  Lourenzo  Marquez  and  assisted  the 
Boers.  Three  weeks  ago  he  reported 
that  the  Boer  army,  including  all  the 
foreigners,  were  less  than  10.000  men. 
Admitting  that  a  month  ago  10.000  Boers 
I  fought  at  Laing's  Nek,  in  Natal,  under 
Gens.  Christian  Botha.  Fureil  and  Pre- 
torlus  against  Buller,  this  great  British 
general  has  not  captured  them.  Have 
they  vanished  in  the  air?  Louis  Botha 
commands  today  perhaps  20.000  men, 
and  is  holding  Lord  Roberts  in  Pretoria. 
President  Steyn  is  still  defending  the 
Orange  Free  State  with  6000  or  8000  men, 
and  Gen.  Christian  Dewet  is  conducting 
the  most  successful  guerrilla  warfare  in 
that  state. 

F>ur  weeks  ago.  after  his  reported 
capture  by  the  British  general,  Dewtt 
with  2000  Boers  destroyed  twenty-five 
miles  of  British  railroad,  broke  the 
British  communications,  killed  and 
wounded  200  British  and  captured  700, 
among  them  representatives  of  the  blue 
blood  of  Great  Britain;  captured  a 
great  British  convoy  with  provisions, 
clothing,  blankets,  etc.,  and  nearly  cap- 
lured  Gen.  Kitchener,  who  only  es- 
caped by  a  narrow  margin  on  his  horse. 
Two  days  later  Gen.  Dewet  attacked 
the  British  again,  forty  milesi  from  the 
first  place,  destroying  the  railroad 
there,  captured  600  British,  one  cannou. 
munitions  of  war,  etc..  and  then  disao- 
reared.  As  the  British  came  in  over- 
whelming numbers,  they  saw  the  clouds 
of  dust  where  the  Boers  disappeared, 
and  captured  their  laager. 

The  British  line  of  communication  has 
been  broken  for  five  or  six  weeks,  and 
proof  was  given  by  the  famous  Gen. 
Dewet,  as  he  on  June  24,  near  the  Zand 
river,  captured  several  trains  with  300U 
mailbags  containing  $20,000  worth  of 
British  postage  stamps,  together  with 
pur>plies  for  the  army.  On  this  raid  lo'i 
Highlanders  were  also  captured.  And 
now  it  is  announced  that  he  has  ta— en 
another  supply  train  and  captured  100 
Highlanders.  If  he  keeps  up  these  raids 
he  will  soon  have  all  the  Highland  regi- 
ments Drisoners.  That  he  has  serIou.slv 
interfered  with  Roberts'  line  of  com- 
munication for  some  time  past  is  shown 
by  a  London  dispatch  published  today 
which  states  that  letters  reaching  Lon- 
don from  the  British  troops  in  the 
(Drange  River  colony  assert  that  both 
men  and  horses  are  short  of  suDplieo 
and  out  of  condition  for  hard  work.  The 
Boers  are  pursuing  their  own  natural 
warfare,  assembling,  attacking  and  de- 
feating the  enemy  and  then  disappearing 
as   quickly  as  they  came. 

The  war  in  South  Africa  has  con- 
tinued now  for  nearly  nine  months.  The 
British  losses,  according  to  their  own 
leports,  exceed  50,000  men,  while  l.^e 
financial  loss  has  been  enormous.  And 
the  end  is  not,  n^ar.  The  Boer  cenera^s 
will  be  able  to  carry  on  this  war  for  two 
years  to  come.  The  Boers  suffer,  but 
the  British  suffer  more. 


A  Bulgarian  journalist  named  Sangoff 
recently  wrote  an  article  in  a  Sofia  paper 
on  the  subject  of  the  relation  of  the  nose 
to  character.  After  dl.scussing  the  various 
shapes  he  came  to  the  conclusion  that 
persons  with  long  noses  are  often  bad 
characters.  The  i)ubllc  prosecutor  4t"gard- 
ed  this  as  a  case  of  lese  majeste,  because 
Prince  Ferdinand  has  a  long  nose.  Sang- 
off was  arrested,  tried  and  .sentenced  to 
three  days'  imprisonment.  He  probably 
believes  now  that  his  conclusion  was  cor- 


rect.

The  war  with  Spain 
showed  that  the  ar- 
tillery arm  of  the 
American  service  is 
not  up  to  the  stand- 
ard. The  war  in  South  Africa  disclosed 
the  fact  that  the  British  artillery  is  also 
behind  the  times,  and  more  recently  it  has 
been  shown  that  the  Chinese  have  the 
latest  and  most  modern  t.vpe  of  artillery, 
superior  to  that  of  their  opponents.  The 
guns  In  use  in  the  artiller>-  arm  of  odr 
service  are  of  an  obsolete  pattern.  They 
have  not  the  range  of  the  modern  gun 
nor  the  power,  on  account  of  lack  In  tic 
initial  velocity,  which  counts  for  every- 
thing in  the  pieces  of  modern  construe 
tion.  The  Denver  Post  says:  "In  ti:p

service  would  be  at  a  disadvantage,  the 
guns  of  modern  pattern  used  by  the  Chi-

nOES  THE  8CX  MOl'Et 

It  has  been  generally  believed  that 
Rev.  Mr.  Jasper,  the  famous  Virginia 
preacher,  who  declared  "De  sun  do 
tr.ove."  had  a  monopoly  of  the  theory 
that  the  earth  Is  the  center  of  the  stel- 
lar and  planetary  systems,  and  that  the 
sun  Is  a  satellite  revolving  around  it 
every  twenty-four  hours.  The  Rev. 
Jasper,  however,  is  not  the  only  person 
who  holds  these  views.  A  remarkable 
puljlication  has  just  been  Issued  by  Gen. 
J.  Watts  De  Peyster  o  Tlvoll,  N.  Y., 
who  was  well  known  a  generation  ago 
as  a  writer  on  military  subjects.  Gen. 
De  Peyster  has  obtained  and  t'-anslated 
a  lecture  delivered  in  Berlin  by  Profes- 
sor C.  Schoepffer  in  advocacy  of  the  the- 
ory that  the  earth  is  immovable  in 
space.  This  translation  has  just  been 
published  in  the  form  of  a  pamphlet, 
under  the  title  "The  Earth  Stands  Fast," 
which  is  fortified  with  the  Biblical  quo- 
tation: "He  founded  the  earth  upon 
her  base  that  it  should  not  1^  moved 
forever." 

Professor  SchoepfEer's  argument  In- 
cludes disproof  of  every  movement  of 
the  earth  that  has  been  regarded  by  as- 
tronomers as  established  and  proved.  To 
begin  with,  he  attack  the  various  ac- 
cepted "proofs"  of  the  rotation  of  the 
earth  upon  its  axis,  and  shows,  with 
considerable  plausibility  that  they  are 
not  proofs  at  all  in  the  scientific  sen.se. 
For  example,  he  points  out  that  the 
variations  on  penduhim  movements  ob- 
.'■•erva'ble  at  different  points  of  the  eart 'I's 
surface  n^ver   have  been  explained  to 


The  American  Lawyer  says  that  the 
Kentuc!cy  legislature  evidently  doesn't 
believe  in  the  "dldn't-know-lt-was-load- 
ed"  excuse,  as  it  passed  an  act  some  time 
ago  which  reads  as  follows:  "It  shall  be 
unlawful  for  any  person  to  fire  or  dys- 
charge  at  random  any  deadly  weapon, 
whether  said  weapon  be  loaded  or  unload- 
ed." 


A  London  dispatch  says  the  omy  obsta- 
cles to  peace  in  South  Africa  are  Presi- 
dent Steyn  and  Gen.  Christian  De  Wei. 
That  lb  only  one  way  of  putting  It.  There 
is  an  Impression  abroad  In  some  quarters 
that  the  presence  of  a  couple  of  hundred 
thousand  British  soldiers  in  Boer  terri- 
tory is  a  much  greater  obstacle  to  peace. 


The  Arhuckles  and  the  llavemejers" 
agreement  Is  that  the  former  shall  fix  the

fixing  prices  higher,  while  the  consumer

Says  the  Topeka  State  Journal:  "Now 
they  have  begun  to  chase  and  kill  mis- 
sionaries in  Persia.  It  might  be  a  good 
idea  to  keep  all  the  missionaries  at  home 
a  few  years  until  the  world  gets  settled." 


The  Kentucky  Democrats  have  pledged 
themselves  to  amend  the  Goebel  election 
law.  This  Is  a  S(  nsible  decision.  It  shows 
that  the  party  leaders  desire  a  fair  elec- 
tion law. 


The  administration  organs  are  U'nv 
claiming  that  Aguinaldo  is  about  to  sur-

The  alarming  character  of  the  dispatches

The  cause  of  the  great  growth  of  Chi-

consisted  of  sales  of  guns  and  ammuni-

The  other  day  on  a  Superior  street  car 
there  occurred  an  instance  of  woman's 
inhumanity  to  man  that  was  very  puzzl- 
ing for  a  moment.  The  car  was  crowded, 
as  the  cars  have  a  habit  of  being  now, 
and  there  were  several  people  standing 
up.  Among  them  was  a  man  who  looked 
as  though  he  ought  to  be  able  to  slip 
into  a  seat  almost  anywhere,  he  was  so 
thin.  He  was  about  &/t  feet  long  by  1 
foot  wide,  and  there  was  not  a  person 
on  the  car  that  would  take  up  less  room. 
Directly  in  front  of  him  sat  a  man  who 
mnst  have  weighed  200  pounds,  and  his 
beam  dimensions  were  about  as  great  as 
they  could  be  for  that  weight,  so  he 
took  up  a  lot  of  room.  Next  to  the  big 
man  sat  a  little  woman  very  demurely, 
and  she  was  not  taking  up  very  much 
room,  having  come  in  late  and  squeezed 
Into  a  small  space.  At  Third  avenue  west 
the  big  man  got  up  and  went  out  leaving 
space  enough  for  two  or  three  men  the 
size  of  the  tall  man  who  was  standing  up. 
This  man  saw  the  opening  and  grasping 
a  strap  he  swung  around  to  sit  down.  He 
came  nearly  setting  In  the  lap  of  the  lit- 
tle woman,  and,  sumewhat  surpclsed,  he 
turned  around  and  looked.  That  little  wo- 
man was  occupying  not  only  her  own 
place  but  that  left  vacant  by  the  big  man. 
She  had  given  her  skirts  a  little  flirt, 
hitched  over  a  trifie,  and  filled  it  up  com- 
pletely. Then  she  sat  there  innoi|pntly 
gazing  off  into  space  as  though  she  were 
dreaming  of  what  the  style  in  harps  and 
crowns  would  be  when  she  got  back  to 
heaven.  The  thin  man  recovered  himself 
and  leaned  on  the  strap  again.

Considering  the  fact  that  there  is  a  good 
deal  of  talk  about  men  refusing  to  give  up 
their  seats  to  women  In  street  cars  it  Is  a 
little  e-urious  that  all  of  the  instances 
of  street  car  discourtesy  that  are  report- 
ed should  be  perpetrated  by  women  pas- 
sengers. Possibly  it  Is  because  from  their 
unexpectedness  they  are  more  striking, 
so  it  does  not  necessarily  mean  that  w«- 
men   are   more   lacking  in   courtesy   than 

men.

A  West  Duluth  home  contains  a  con- 
tented couple  whose  union  was  brought 
•ibout  rather  romantically.  The  husband 
has  resided  in  that  port  of  the  city  many 
years  and  was  regarded  as  an  old  bach- 
elor. Quite  recently  he  picked  up  a  mat- 
rimonial paper  and  was  lead  to  insert 
an  advertisement  for  a  wife  in  its  col- 
umns. A  few  days  passed  and  t'ne  ex- 
pectant would-be-bridegroom  received  an 
ans'-er  from  a  woman  away  down  in 
Missouri.  Correspondence  between  the  two 
followed  for  a  month,  and  finally  the  old 
bachelor  sent  her  the  monev  to  come  up 
here  and  marry  him.  It  happens  that  na- 
ture has  not  endowed  the  groom  with  a 
shapely  form  nor  with  the  best  sight  and 
he  verv  much  feared  that  the  Intended 
bride  would  back  out  when  she  saw  him. 
He  made  all  arrangements  about  the  li- 
cense, however,  and  meeting  her  at  the 
train  he  rushed  her  off  to  the  minister's 
before  she  had  lime  to  fully  get  her 
breath  and  look  him  over.  The  match  is 
said  to  have  turned  out  ha{)pily  for  both 
and  thev  are  enjoying  life  with  the  knowl- 
edge that  very  few  West  Duluthians  know 
anvtiiin.g    about    the    circumstances.

ROOSEVELT  AT  ST.  PAUL 

New  York  Journal:  GoN-ernor  Roosevelt 
ha"  "struck  the  keynote"  of  the  campaign. 
And  the  keynote  is- Dodge. 

It  was  a  great  speech  tne  governor  deliv- 
ered a'  St.  Paul.  He  took  up  the  Issues 
succcEsively.  On  the  silver  question  he 
began: 

"There  is  little  need  to  argue  against 
fii  fe  silver  now." 

When  the  applause  that  greeted  that 
powerful  argument  had  subsided  Mr. 
Rcosevelt  proceeded  to  the  next  question. 
Said  he: 

"Now,  as  to  expansion.  It  hardly  seems 
worth  while  to  waste  any  lime  upon  what 
the  Kansas  City  people  call  'imperialism' 
and  militarism." 

So.  wasting  little  time  upon  that  subject, 
he  skipped  on  to  "our  plain  duty,"  concern- 
ing which  he  remarked: 

"What  they  say  about  Cuba  and  Porto 
Rico  need  not  detain  us  for  a  moment." 

So  It  did  not  detain  him  for  a  moment, 
and  he  was  ready  to  trip  gaily  to  the  next 
point: 

"Many  of  the  positions  taken  by  the 
Populistic  Democracy  at  the  moment  are 
so  palpably  dishonest  and  maintained  in 
so  palpable  bad  faith  that  to  state  them  is 
sufficient.  It  Is  hardly  necessary  to  discuss  | 
what  they  say  about  'the  constitution  fol- 
lowing the  fiag.'  " 

Which  brought  the  governor  to  his  tri- 
umphant climax: 

"So  it  is  with  their  cant  about  'militar- 
ism' and  'Intimidation  and  oppression  at 
home'  as  following  what  they  are  pleased 
to  call  'conquest  abroad.'  We  cannot  argue 
with  them  on  this  proposition,  because  no 
serious  man  thinks  for  a  moment  that  they 
believe  what   th'?y  assert.  ' 

This  able  effort  naturall.v  brought  thun- 
ders of  applause.  The  Minnesotans  all 
agreed  that  It  was  the  best  argument  that 
could  possibly  be  made  on  the  Republican 
side.  They  were  especially  pleased  with 
Governor  Roosevelt's  denunciation  of  the 
"worst  trust  to  bo  found  today  in  the 
United  States,  the  ice  trust,  "  because  they 
realized  that  If  the  governor  would  not  use 
his  power  to  crush  the  worst  trust  In  the 
United  States  he  would  certainly  be  a  safe 
man  to  send  to  Washington  to  look  after 
the  Interests  of  the  other  trusts.

"He  said  he  couldn't  understand  why  I

Boston  Transcript:  Fuddy— They  have 
a  deal  to  say  about  the  "brotherhood  of

Duddy— That's  all  right.  There  always

STEWART  RIVEFI'S  VICTIMS. 

Four  Klondikers  Lose  Their  Lives 
Ascending  thi  Stream. 

Tacoma,  W'ash.,  July  24.— Late  advices 

from  Dawson  give  the  details  of  another 

tragedy,  four  out  of  a  party  of  five  lost 

their  lives  as  a  result  of  the   terrible 

trip  taken  to  the  headwaters  of  the 
Stewart  river.  The  dead  are:  Antoine 
Perry,  Charles  Sandstorm,  of  Boston; 
Oscar  Van  Buren,  who  started  for  the 
Klondike  with  Sandsiorm  from  Boston, 
and  Louis  Bouchard,  who  joined  the 
party  in  Atlin. 

In  addition  to  these  was  George 
Saxholm,  of  Oakland.  Cal.,  who  is  tha 
sole  surviv<jr.  He  was  picked  up  below 
the  mouth  of  the  Stevart  river,  floating 
down  the  Yukon  toward  Dawson.  When 


discovered,  he  was  nearly  dead,  having, 
he  explained  after  gaining  his  senses. 
been  as  near  as  he  knew,  four  days 
without  anything  to  eat.

Missing. 

NORTH    DAKOTA. 

Fargo— As  a  result  of  the  investigations 
of  Professor  Bolley,  of  the  North  Dakota 
Agricultural  college,  it  has  been  deter- 
mined that  there  is  a  very  large  acreage 
in  the  state  spotted  by  llax  disease,  'tuc 
disease  is  of  such  a  nature  that  it  may  be 
imparted  lo  me  plant  through  the  seed, 
arm  when  the  fungas  Is  once  in  the  grouuii 
it  may  remain  for  years,  thus  iniecling 
subsequent  fiax  crops.  Professor  Boiiey 
urges  the  farmers  to  make  a  careful  in- 
spection of  their  fiax  fields  and  seed  none 
of  the  land  next  year  that  shows  the  ilax 
sickness  this  season,  and  above  all  not  to 
seetl  the  llax  grown  on  the  diseased  land 
this  year. 

Juuge  Pollock  has  granted  Mrs.  Gen- 
evieve Magill  a  divorci'  from  John  Magill 
on  the  ground  of  wiltul  neglect.  The  plain- 
tiff is  a  daughter  of  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Eastoii, 
of  targo,  and  the  defendant  was  tne  sjn 
of  Col.  Magill,  recently  deceased.  Con- 
siderable interest  was  taken  in  the  case, 
as  both  the  young  people  were  raiseci  in 
Fargo  and  belong  to  Fargos  best  so- 
ciety. 

Jamestown— At  a  special  meeting  of  the 
cliv  council  it  was  decided  to  hold  a  spe- 
cial election  Aug.  10  for  the  purpose  of  de- 
ciding whether  tne  city  council  should  pro- 
vide for  a  water  supply  by  the  sinking 
of  an  artesian  well  or  by  the  stablish- 
ment  of  a  pumping  station.  The  issuance 
of  bonds  to  the  amount  of  JlO.tXJO  will  also 
be  decided  upon.  For  many  years  the  city 
was  supplied  with  abundant  water  for 
domestic  uses  and  for  fire  protection,  but 
the  well  has  given  out  and  it  is  a  question 
whether  a  new  one  will  be  sunk. 

Grand  Fork.s— Word  has  just  been  re- 
ceived here  that  Caleb  Shephard.  trick  bi- 
cycle rider,  of  this  city,  was  seriously  in- 
iured  on  Saturday  night,  while  giving  an 
exhibition  in  a  small  town  150  miles  west 
of  Winnipeg.  He  broke  a  collar  bone,  and 
sustained  serious  internal  injuries.  His 
brother  and  mother  have  gone  to  Winni- 
peg.   

Cannon  Ball— Word  comes .  of  a  serious 
stabbing  affair  on  Four  Mile  Creek.  Bob 
Marshall,  a  half-breed  rancher,  was  stab- 
bed in  the  face  and  breast  with  a  large 
pocketknlfe.  It  has  not  been  definitely  as- 
certained who  did  the  work.  Marshall 
may  die.  No  arrests  have  been  made  as 
yel"  Whisky  was  the  cause.  Marshall  lay 
on  the  prairie  several  hours  before  he  was 
found. 

Sterling— Lightning  set  the  prairies  on 
fire  all  over  this  section  of  country  Sat- 
urday afternoon.  The  fire  was  driven  by 
high  "hot  winds,  destroying  vast  amounts 
of  hay  and  pasturage.  Some  buildings 
were  also  burned. 

SOUTH  DAKOTA. 

Verdon— O.  E.  Seion.  buyer  for  the  Eagle 
Roller  mill  of  this  place,  left  for  parts  un- 
known over  a  week  ago.  He  went  to  Min- 
neapolis on  the  12th  inst..  saying  that  ho 
would  be  home  the  next  Sunday  morning. 
On  Thursday  last  his  wife  received  an  un- 
dated letter'from  him  in  which  he  admit- 
ted that  he  was  short  in  his  account  with 
the  company.  It  Is  reported  that  his 
shortage  will  amount  to  something  like 
$7000.  Speculating  in  wheat  options  was  the 
cause  of  his  trouble. 

Pierre— The  state  auditor  has  made  up  a 
statement  of  the  finances  of  the  state  for 
the  past  fiscal  year,  showing  the  total  re- 
ceipts lo  have  been  $640,621.88.  The  dis- 
bursements to  offset  this  were  ^9.751.45 
oaid  on  warrants;  $200  refunded  on  liquor 
license,  and  |S0,760.43  cash  on  band.

Although  particularly  desirju.<  of 
complying  with  the  council's  suggestions 
on  how  to  operate  a  street  railway  sys- 
tem, the  local  company  very  diplomatic- 
ally informs  the  aldermen  that  the  com- 
fort and  convenience  of  its  patrons  de- 
mand i>oints  of  transfer  where  -'assen- 
gers  can  have  shelter  in  a  time  of  storm, 
and  if  this  is  entirely  convenient  to  the 
honorable  legislative  branch  of  city 
government,  the  company  will  not  ri  - 
turn  to  it.s  old  points  of  transfer. 

Last  week  the  council  passed  a  resolu- 
tion expressing  as  its  unanimous  opin- 
ion that  all  transfer  points  un  the  street 
railway  system  should  be  "at  the  t>oiiit 
of  divergence  of  tSie  several  lines."  The 
company  recently  changed  it.«  points  of 
transfer  S3  that  passengtr.^  for  Garfield 
avenue  and  Wesi.  Superior  should  change 
cars  at  Seventh  avenue  west  instead  of 
Garfield:  passengers  for  Woodland  and 
East  and  West  Fourth  streets  to  trans- 
fer at  Fifth  avenue  west  instead  of 
Third  avenue  west,  and  passengers  for 
Lakeside  at  Fifth  avenue  west  instead 
of  Second  avenue  east.  Some  of  the 
aldermen — particularly  Alderman  Krum- 
sieg— thought  that  this  was  a  sctieme  of 
the  company's  to  pick  up  an  additional 
fare  about  every  thirty  seconds,  and 
requested  the  company  to  get  back  to  its 
old  DOints. 

The  company  last  evening  came  back 
wit>>  an  answer  in  which  it  denies  each 
and  every  allegation  of  the  complaint. 
Manager  Warren  says  that  if  the  coni- 
panj-  absolutely  omplied  with  t^e  coun- 
cil's requests.  Lakeside  passengers 
would  have  to  transfer  at  Twenty-third 
avenue  east,  as  that  is  the  point  of  di- 
vergence from  the  Superior  street  line. 
He  says  that  this  would  be  inconven- 
ient, e?r)ecially  when  the  cars  were 
cr-jwded.  and  that  Fifth  avenue  west, 
the  beginning  of  the  Lakeside  line,  with 
the  Lyceum  drug  store  and  the  Spalding 
hotel  corner  furnishing  ample  waiting 
room  protection,  is  a  much  better 
place. 

Mr.  Warren  further  informed  th-.' 
council  that  the  recent  changes  in  trans- 
fer points  were  made  necessary  by  the 
changes  in  the  routes  of  the  several 
lines  made  on  July  1.  It  was  formerly 
the  plan  of  the  company  to  make  the 
transfer  at  points  of  convergence  rattier 
than  points  of  divergence,  and  when- 
ever the  company  departed  from  this- 
it  was  for  some  ver>-  good  reason.  Fo:- 
instance,  the  transfer  from  Lakeside 
and  East  Superior  street  cars  to  inter- 
state cars  would  be  Second  avenue  east, 
the  beginning  of  the  interstate  line,  but 
on  accDunt  of  the  frequent  interruotion 
of  the  schedule  on  this  line,  due  to  the 
opening  of  two  draw  bridges,  it  often 
became  necessary  to  switch  cars  back 
before  they  arrive  at  the  en<1  of  the  line, 
in  order  to  maintain  a  regularity  in  t2ie 
service.  By  tran.«ferring  at  Seventh 
avenue  west  the  pas.sengei-s  can  catch 
all  cars,  whether  they  make  the  fuli 
run  or  not.  Then  Seventh  avenue  is  at 
the  foot  of  the  Incline,  and  except  wh^ii 
the  big  cars  are  in  motion,  rhey  furnish 
a  very  desirable  waiting  room  for  trans- 
fer passengers,  who  can  incidentally 
bave  the  servi<^es  of  the  Incline  con- 
!  IV  night,  which  did  not  delay  the  vesse:.    ductor    in    watching      for      their      cais 


there  are  enough  other  resources  to  make 
it  pay  after  the  timber  is  cleared  up.  A.- 
he  does  not  think  that  there  is  enough 
timber  to  warrant  a  logging  road,  Mr. 
Weyerhaeuser  carries  the  impression  thai 
the  new  railroad  will  be  fonstructed  for 
other  purposes  than  that  of  logsiing.

Yesterday  he  held  a  session  \n  Hibhinc. 
at  the  city  clerk's  offiee,  and  this  morn- 
ing he  held  one  at  the  school  house  in 
Virginia. 

There  will  be  two  more  special  ses- 
sions in  Duluth.  One  will  be  held  Fri-

Michigan  street  and  Garfield  avenue. 
says  Manager  Warren,  has  always  been 
corvsidered  an  undesirable  place  to 
transfer  people  of  We.st  Superior,  and 
especially  is  this  .=o  with  women  pas- 
sengers. 

In  presenting  these  points  to  the  coun- 
c  il  the  company  asks  careful  considera- 
tion of  the  convenience  of  its  patrons. 
Some  of  the  aldermen  last  night  inti- 
mated that  the  street  car  C3innany  was 
dodging  the  issue,  but  the  matter  was 
finally  referred  to  tlae  railroad  commit- 
tee, consisting  of  Aldermen  Culluni. 
Carey  and  Watterworth. 

The  board  of  public  works  and  th" 
city  engineer  were  authorized  to  ma'Ke 
a  comfilete  estimate  of  the  cast  of  paving 
Michigan  street  frnm  First  avenue  east 
to  its  intersection  with  .Superior  street 
at  Mesaba  avenue  with  sandstone.  This 
is  even  more  expensive  than  the  original 
recommendations  of  Mayor  Hugo,  ani 
the  nnx-eedlngs  fr m  now  on  will  b^ 
watched  with  interest.  It  may  cost  the 
city  more  to  do  this  paving  on  Micdigar. 
street  than  it  would  to  put  the  same 
paving  on  Superior  street,  for  the  rea- 
son that  much  nf  the  property  on  the 
.south  side  of  the  thoroughfare,  which 
is  owned  by  railroad  companies,  is 
liable  to  be  exempt  from  assessment 
under  the  gross  earnin.es,  tax  law.  This 
question  has  not  yet  been  fully  deter- 
mined by  the  attorneys,  but  some  of 
the  aldermen  are  strongly  impressed 
with  its  possibility. 

Mayor  Hugo  asked  the  council  to  take 
action  urging  the  railroad  companies 
to  arrive  at  a  decision  in  the  Garfield 
avenue  viaduct  matter.  He  said  the 
lack  of  progress  was  annoying  to  the 
city,  and  thought  the  council  through 
the  city  attorney  could  compel  action  on 
the  part  of  the  railroads. 

A  resolution  was  adopted  authorizing 
the  settling  of  all  claims  of  the  city 
against  the  Duluth  Street  Railway  com- 
pany contracted  prior  to  July  25.  1900. 
for  $3680.  Incidentally  with  this  settle- 
ment the  city  attorney  handed  in  an 
opinion  to  the  effect  that  there  was  quite 
a  question  as  to  whether  the  street  car 
company  could  be  compelled  to  pay  as- 
sessments for  sprinkling  between  tracks, 
and  he  suggested  that  in  order  to  deter- 
mine the  question  the  council  should 
order  the  company  to  keep  the  space 
swept  and  sprinkled,  and  in  case  of  a 
refusal,  to  bring  a  test  suit.

THE  PAVILION. 


Duluth's  Famous  Resort  a 

Possession  of  Wliicli  tlie 

City  Is  Proud. 

Duluth  is  certainly  fortunate  for  her 
situation.  Aside  from  I'ne  fact  that  the 
city  is  situated  at  the  finger-tip  of  des- 
tiny, where  lake  and  rail  meet,  and  al! 
the  other  things  you  read  about  in  th<r 
boom  editions  of  the  oaoers,  the  city 
is  especially  fortunate  in  her  show 
places,  and  one  of  the  m'lst  remarkable 
show  places  of  the  city  is  the  hill  ton. 
Many  cities  have  places  of  considerable 
altitude  where  they  can  take  visitors 
and  give  them  a  view,  but  none  of  them 
can  compare  with  Duluth's  hill  top.  In 
the  first  place,  it  is  much  higher  than 
the  situations  offered  in  most  cities,  and 
in  the  second  place,  there  is  more  to  see 
after  one  gets  there  than  in  other 
places. 

Duluth  people  have  become  accus- 
tomed to  the  novelty,  so  they  do  not 
consider  the  place  in  the  light  that  vis- 
itors to  the  city  do,  having  seen  it  for  the 
first  time.  To  outsiders  it  is  wonderful. 
They  get  aboard  a  car  on  one  of  the 
lower  levels  of  the  city.  In  two  or  three 
minutes  they  are  carried  easily  and 
pleasantly  to  the  top  of  the  hill.  6.')" 
feet  higher  than  their  starting  point, 
where  they  have  a  commanding  view  of 
a  grand  panon^ma  of  .scenery.  From 
the  dividing  line  where  Minnesota  Point, 
rising  like  a  column  of  smoke,  curls  its 
lazy  length  toward  the  sky,  .stretches  the 
two  divisions  of  the  panorama.  On  the 
right  hand  are  the  level  stretches  of 
the  Wisconsin  wooded  prairies,  and  on 
the  left  are  the  blue  wa.stes  of  Lake  Su- 
;oerior.  tinted  with  a  blue  as  deep  and 
charming  as  any  Mediterranean  scene 
In  the  foreground  is  Duluth.  and  in  th-o 
rear  are  the  hill  tops. 

But  there  is  no  need  to  attempt  to 
sketch  that  view.  It  must  be  seen,  and 
the  unique  method  of  gaining  the  vant- 
age p-oint  must  be  experienced  in  order 
to  appreciate  it.  Up  there  cool  breezes 
blow,  and  no  matter  how  hot  and 
stifling  the  depths  below  may  be,  it  is 
always  cool  and  pleasant  there.  The 
Pavilion  itself  is  large  and  comfortable 
and  airy,  and  the  visitor  may  take  his 
choice  of  sitting  on  the  broad  veranda 
and  taking  in  the  air  and  sky  and  land 
with  eye  and  breath,  or  going  within 
and  .seeing  a  pleasing  performance  in  a 
cool  theater. 

Taking  it  all  in  all.  there  are  few 
cities  that  have  such  an  attraction  to 
offer  the  visitor  as  the  ride  to  the  hill 
top  and  its  attendant  Pleasures.

Work  Done  By  His  Regiment, 
the  Forty-Fifth  Volun- 
teer Infantrya 


Baar,  Island  of  Luzon,  Province  of 
South  Camarines.  June  9. — (Special  to 
The  Herald.)— 'Well,  I  thenk  das  bi!i 
allrighf  if  I  try  and  tell  the  readers  of 
The  Herald  some  of  my  experiences 
with  the  Forty-fifth  infantry.  United 
States  volunteers.  Beforehand.  I  must 
ask  the  kind-hearted  reader,  the  editor, 
who  always  has  his  busy  day,  as  well  as 
the  compositors,  and  the  "devil"  Includ- 
ed, for  ab.solution  for  my  profane  at- 
tempt. 

The  story  l)esins  where  all  the  Man- 
illa cigars  (10  fur  a  quarter)  are  sup- 
posed to  come  from,  in  the  metropolis  of 
the  Asiatic  sea,  the  cosmopolitan  city  of 
Manilla,  -Ahere  Dewey  "did  it."  We 
landed  there  on  Dec.  21,  disembarked  on 
the  22d,  and  immediately  proceeded  to 
Caloocan,  nine  miles  north  of  Manilla, 
and  one  ui  its  outposts,  where  our  regi- 
ment was  to  as.semble.  Caloocan  sup- 
plies Manilla  with  water,  has  extensive 
waterworks,  machine  and  car  shops  of 
the  Dagupan  railroad  (130  miles),  the 
only  road  on  the  island,  and  a  Al  bum 
railroad  at  this,  with  toy  engines  and 
dingy  boxcars.  If  the  suicide  cluijs 
leally  mean  to  carry  out  their  principles, 
why  not  let  them  come  over  here  and 
ride  in  those  trains.  I'd  see  their  finish 
right  there.  Caloocan  is.  therefore,  an 
important  position,  and  it  explains  the 
feet  that  most  of  the  fighting  has  been 
around  Caloocan,  La  Lama,  etc. 

We  were  there  just  three  days  when 
we  were  ordered  to  proceed  by  day- 
break of  the  26th  to  Lan  Mater,  a  hard 
march  of  t\\'<enty-five  miles,  over  steep 
mountain  trails.  By  nightfall  we  were 
in  San  Mater,  near  where  Gen.  Lawt.>n 
found  his  death.  Unable  to  obtain 
quarters,  we  slept  on  the  streets,  on  the 
damp  ground,  the  reddish  light  of  the 
camp  fires  casting  long,  grotesque 
shadows.  It  was  the  eve  before  battle, 
and  in  the  early  morning  we  were  or- 
dered to  proceed  to  Montalban,  where 
the  insurgents  were  strongly  entrenched 
in  the  mountains.  Companies  A,  B,  C 
and  F,  of  the  Fcrty-fifth.  one  battalijn 
of  the  Forty-sixth,  a  few  troups  of  the 
Eleventh  cavalry,  one  Itattalion  each  of 
the  Twenty -seventh  and  Twenty-ninth, 
and  two  batteries  of  the  Sixth  artillery, 
were  the  forces  that  took  part  in  cur- 
maiden  scrap.  By  1  p.  m.  the  day  was 
ours,  the  Insurgents  scattered,  and  we 
as  hungry  as  a  set  of  wild  lions  fre.sh 
from  the  deserts  of  Africa.  But  <»ur 
haversacks  were  about  four  miles  be- 
hind the  firing  line,  and  had  to  be  found 
first.  For  three  successive  days  our 
(omnanv  held  a  very  difficult  positi.m. 
exposed"  to  hunger,  thirst,  the  burnin,;; 
sun.  and  the  inten.se  cold  night  winds. 
for  we  did  not  have  any  shelter  either, 
everything  was  left  behind.  But  by 
New'  Year  we  were  again  at  Caloocan 
for  a  short  rest. 

We  were  now  assigned  to  Gen.  Wheal - 
on's  (lying  brigade,  and  jiartook  in  the 
clearing  up  of  Cavite  province,  the  hot- 
l>ed  of  the  insurrection,  Aguinaldo's  na- 
tive country.  Jan.  '<  we  started  our 
inarch  .«eries — from  Caloiuan  'o  Pasay, 
Pasay  to  Bacoor  and  Inius.  Jan.  7 
i^hortly  beftire  our  arrival  at  Imus.  ill - 
Twenty-eighth  infantry  had  a  fight  in 
town,  driving  'Ut  the  insurgents  with 
.iireat  loss.  Now  the  column,  consisting 
of  the  Twenty-eighth.  Thirty-eighth. 
Forty-fifth  and  some  mountain  artillery, 
pushed  towards  Penz  Dasmarines.  ih" 
insurgents  taking  to  their  h«els.  H-rn 
js  frtjin  where  the  F.uty-fifth  operate. 1 
independently,  going  west  to  Bueno 
Viesta  and  Luintano,  occupying  the 
towns  right  after  the  fieeing  niggers. 
Beautiful  scenery  and  dangerous  jiass- 
ages  wer-a  seen  and  passed.  For  in- 
stance. gi)ing  to  Bueno  Viesta.  two  river.'= 
going  parallel,  we  cros.sed  right  on  the 
edge  of  cataracts,  one  of  them  al  night. 
It  makes  a  man  shudder  to  allnv  his 
thoughts  any  space. 

Aliout  a  week  we  were  encamped  at 
Quintano.  making  it  the  bas"  point  of 
scouting  expeditions  in  all  directions  of 
the  windrose.  Jan.  19  the  regiment 
moved  to  Yaie.  where  we  were  stationed 
for  about  a  month.  From  here  we  did 
S'  me  very  serious  but  resultless  "kick- 
ing." A  trip  over  the  mountains  I  > 
Alfimso.  Maragon.  over  Nasughu.  Mag- 
allanis.  Maragondon,  to  Naic,  we  under- 
took with  three  days"  rations,  but  found 
to  our  sorrow  that  it  took  five  days.  Tli'^" 
consequence  was  that  we  had  to  go  with- 
out "grub"  for  two  days.  I  kept  in  the 
ring,  though  badly  disfigured. 

When  we  were  .seated  around  in  a 
glorious  time  of  doing  nothing,  the 
mighty  head  that  had  the  say  so  thought 
it  necessary  for  the  Forty-fifth  to  be 
packed  on  the  transport  Tartar  and 
make  an  excursion  to  the  south  end  of 
this  piece  of  property,  where  the  island 
consists  mostly  of  rivers,  1-lown  up 
bridges,  trenches,  barricades,  traps  and 
pitfalls.  We  got  there,  and  here  on  th;= 
end  is  where  we  had  our  fun.  The  dis- 
emliarkment  of  the  troops  (Fortieth, 
Fortv-fifth  and  Sixth  artillery)  began. 
Feb.  21.  1900.  Going  up  the  Bicol  river  in 
small  lifeboats,  we  landed  and  proceed- 
ed Lebmanon,  a  town  the  Foriteth  hail 
already  taken.  Next  day  we  crossed  the 
Bicol  and  entered  Xan  Xisholas,  well 
entrenched  but  abandoned  by  the 
"brown-skinned  gents."  One  expedition, 
under  Gens.  Bates  and  Bell,  advanced  in 
three  columns  towards  Nueva  Cacerc-*, 
where  we  met,  on  the  night  of  the  2:d. 
Washington's  birthday.  At  MarangASi^o 
we  had  before  a  kind  of  a  skirmish  of 
not  much  importance. 

On  the  night  of  the  24th  six  companies 
of  the  Forty-fifth,  under  Col.  Dorst.  left 
Xueva  Caceres,  which,  by  the  way,  is 
the  capital  of  South  Camarines  province. 
After  a  wearisome  all  night's  march, 
(night  marches  are  always  pretty  tough 
on  a  man),  we  crossed  a  river  near  Pili. 
and  cooked  breakfast.  Some  unpardon- 
able, carelss-shooting  niggers,  who  un- 
doubtedly thought  they  could  have  some 
target  practice  at  our  expense,  wouldn't 
even  give  us  a  civil  chance  to  eat  ou" 
breakfast  in  peace,  so  we  went  after 
ij;em— about  800  of  them— and  rnade 
them  feel  very  sorry  and  disappointed 
before  dinner.  We  killed  fifty-six  of 
them.  Onwards  we  went  from  the 
battlefield  of  Andagnan,  to  Buao  and 
Iriga,  where  we  rescued  forty-six  Span- 
ish prisoners. 

A  side  show  expedition,  Cimpanies  A, 
C  and  D.  went  to  Buhi,  northeast  of 
Suga.  By  sundown  of  the  26th  we  had 
overcome  the  diflSculties  of  the  road  and 
were  ready  to  enter  town.  The  insur- 
gents burned  a  bridge  down  on  us.  y.ni 
know,  and  we  had  to  wade  the  river  uo 
to  our  breasts.  That  made  the  outfit 
which  we  pursued  somewhat  ahead  of 
us,  and  scarcely  fifteen  minutes  before 
we  entered  town  they  had  set  across  the 
Jake  in  canoes  and  dug  into  the  moun-

and  to  Antipolo  we  went,  fifty-one  of 
us,  and  had  a  general  good  time.  We 
ccmpletely  surprised  tSie  honorable 
cDlonel  of  the  nigger  forces.  We  had 
our  revenge  right  here,  for  we  did  not 
give  the  insurgents  a  chance  to  eat 
their  breakfast,  which  was  boiling  yet. 
Col.  Pena  escaped  in  his  night  clothes. 
We  rescued  forty-three  Spaniards  here. 
Capt.  Montfort  came  into  possession  of 
Col.  Pena's  sword,  a  beautiful  affair  of 
solid  silver. 

After  a  week's  recreation  (?)  in  Xuera 
Cacerco.  which  was  nothing  but  a  series 
of  outpost  duty,  we  i  gain  assembled  at 
Suga,  and  starting  out  on  March  17. 
St.  Patrick's  day,  were  Companies  A, 
D,  M,  K  and  E.  a  troop  of  cavalry  and 
two  mountain  guns  (3.2-"in.)  of  the 
Astor  battery.  Now,  we  went  into  alto- 
gether different  territory— the  province 
of  Albay,  the  jurisdiction  of  the  Forty- 
seventh  infantry.  Before  entering 
Libon  we  were  fire<l  upon  crossing  a 
river,  but  the  faithful  folliwers  of 
Aguinaldo  did  not  ha/o  nerve  enough  to 
wait  till  we  got  over  on  the  other  side. 
We  occupied  Libon  that  night.  On  the 
18th  we  had  a  rough-and-tumble  scrap 
at  Polangui.  We  chased  a  force  from 
the  outskirts  of  the  town  through  the 
town  to  the  main  body,  which  was  en- 
trenched in  the  moimtains.  Here  is 
where  one  of  our  company  got  wounded. 
But  our  jack-ass  batttries  were  not  slow, 
they  wheeled  around  and  opened  up  in 
great  shape — crack,  b  jm.  rum,  bum,  biff, 
sing, — .such  a  cmcert  extremely  beauti- 
ful! Of  course,  who  would  stand  up  to 
a  well-directed  fire  of  shrapnel?  They 
took  to  their  heels  and  tried  to  pike  over 
the  mountains,  but  ran  into  Comoany 
D,  who  by  that  time  had  got  in  the  rear 
of  the  enemy.  A  flank  movement  thev 
tried  on  us  did  no;  work,  and  what 
could  the  voctr  boys  lo?  Tlie  ones  that 
are  laying  in  trenches  won't  tell  what 
they  did,  and  the  Ores  taken  prisoners 
won't  have  to  tell,  because  we've  don.^ 
all  the  d:)ings  oursehes.  And  hard  tack 
and  raw  bacon  tastec  like  confectionery. 
Again  we  exchanged  shots  in  a  fortified 
mountain  path  be  ween  Ligao  and 
Guinabatan  the  day  after  the  Polangui 
fight.  But  the  main  part  of  our  fighting 
in  Albay  province  occurred  on  Marcth 
20.  when  we  did  not  have  any  less  than 
five  scrans.  In  the  early  morning,  nn 
mire  than  two  mUef  outside  of  Guino- 
batan  we  were  fired  apon  from  the  hills 
on  the  right  of  tbt  road  and  fought 
about  thirty  minut -s.  About  thirty 
minutts'  walk  and  tae  same  thing  was 
repeated.  We  fouirht  our  way  into 
Camalig.  One  man  of  Company  M  was 
killed  and  several  wounded.  Through  a 
strongly  f  >rtifled  r<  ad  in  a  grove  of 
bacoo  plants,  which  produce  the  Cfle- 
brated  hemp,  we  were  not  molested,  but 
as  soon  as  we  left  that  grove,  pop  went 
the  rifles  and  artillery  again,  Xot  fif- 
teen minutes'  walk  outside  of  Daraga, 
where  we  met  the  first  forces  of  the 
Fortv-seventh,  we  v  ere  under  fire  the 
fifth  and  last  time  that  remarkable  day. 
Proceeding  through  Albay,  the  capital 
of  the  s.^-named  province,  we  entered 
the  seaport  Legaspi  at  sundown.  We 
had  crojssed  Albay  province  from  north- 
west to  southeast  in  five  days,  fighting 
all  the  way  through.  On  the  22nd.  with 
fresh  rations  and  a  new  stock  of  am- 
munition, we  started  our  journey  back- 
wards, having  a  figh:  again  at  Camalig. 
A  nights  mai-ch  fetched  us  surprisingly 
early  to  Ligao,  wheie  we  caught  in  all 
thirty-nine  Filipino  offlcers,  among  them 
the  recruiting  general  of  the  in.surgenc 
army.  Also  a  lot  of  tactics  and  some 
rifles.  The  total  cf  r  fles  we've  captured 
is  forty-seven  and  ninety-nine  prisonens 
on  tl-at  trip  alone. 

Xow  and  ever  since  April  G  we  nave 
been  .statione<l  in  Bair,  have  established 
a  civil  government,  i  market,  etc.  We 
confiscated  about  $10,000  insurgent 
funds,  dug  up  thre«  cannons  and  had 
some  expeditions  and  fights  on  a 
smaller  scale  all  for  ourselves.  The  re- 
sult is  that  the  2on»  of  jurisdiction  of 
Company  A  is  completely  cleared  of  in- 
surgents and  robbert. 

We  probably  will  undertake  a  larger 
expedition  to"  Bato-Bato.  where  about 
lOOO  insurgents  have  their  lay-out.  At 
present  we  are  confortably  quartered 
in  the  convent  at  Baar.  Esc^rtine 
wagon  trains  and  di;tinguished  persons 
and  guard  is  our  duty  at  the  present 
criminal  writing.  If  you  and  the  pe«iple 
in  Duluth  specially  and  your  circle  of 
readers  in  general  can  forgive  me.  do  it, 
and  I  probably  will  have  the  ner^-e  to 
write  some  more  "wild  west  stories" 
and  "leather"  or  cotton  "stocking  tales." 
The  Herald,  which  is  coming  to  me 
regularly,  is  a  welcome  guest  and  an 
agreeable  change  ia  the  monotonous 
routine  of  duty.  Xow,  ring  off.  The 
circuit  is  closed.

What  this  Dolnth  Citizen 

Says  Only  Corroborates 

the  Story  of  Thou= 

sands. 


The  particulars  related  by  this  repre- 
sentative citizen  of  Dulath  are  similar 
to  hundreds  of  others  in  this  city. 
When  there  are  scores  of  people,  all 
anxious  to  tell  about  the  benefits  re- 
ceived from  the  use  of  Doan's  Kidney 
Pills,  the  greatest  skeptic  in  Duluth 
must  be  convinced.       Read  this: 

Mrs.  Letitie  Cole,  living  at  513  Second 
avenue  east,  says:  "During  five  or  six 
years  I  suffered  a  great  deal  with  my 
kidneys,  and  at  times  was  very  bad. 
especially  if  I  caught  cold  or  over-ex- 
erted myself.  My  health  was  generally 
run  down  and  I  felt  used  up.  There  was 
a  constant,  heavy,  dull,  aching  pain 
across  the  small  of  my  back  and  in  the 
kidneys.  The  secretions  from  these  or- 
gans were  unnatural  and  deposited  a 
lieavy  sediment.  I  tried  different 
remedies  at  different  times,  but  did  not 
succeed  in  getting  anything  that  would 
help  me.  Seeing  Doan's  Kidney  Pills 
highly  recommended  I  procured  a  box 
at  the  Duluth  Drug  company's  and  be- 
gan to  use  them.  They  helped  me  at 
once  and  I  rapidly  grew  better  and 
stronger.  I  cannot  speak  too  highly  of 
Doan's  Kidney  Pills  and  I  unhestitat- 
ingly  recommend  them  to  others."

THE  WORKINe  MAN 
AND  HIS  EXPERIENCE 


He  Is  Learning  to  Look 
Out  For  No.  L 

Outside  of  any  union  or  labor  organi- 
zation features,  the  working  man  has 
learned  the  art  of  self-protection.  He 
has  been  trifled  with  long  enough,  not  so 
much  by  trusts  or  corporations  as  by  the 
m.anufacturers  of  the  goods  he  buys. 
X'owadays  the  laboring  man  is  learning 
to  ask  questions  when  buying  goods: 
"Who  made  this?"  or  "What  does  it 
contain?"  or  "Was  it  made  by  a  trust?" 
In  buying  tobacco,  it  is  well  for  you  to 
ask  your  dealer  for  Gold  Rope,  King- 
bolt, Thrasher  or  Rise  and  Shine.  These 
brands  are  made  by  the  W^ilson-Mc- 
Callay  Tobacco  company,  of  Middletow  n. 
Ohio,  a^^ompany  independent  of  trusts. 
They  are  better  than  any  other  brands 
on  the  market,  and  are  pure,  wholesome 
and  of  delightful  flavor.  Do  not  be  de- 
ceived with  inferior  and  dishonest 
lirands,  but  paste  the  above  liat  where  it 
will  not  be  lost.

FOR  SALE  BY 

S.  F.  BOYCE. 


The  demand  for  houses  tn  the  city  of 

Diiluth  av.A  iht'  total  a'»sence  of  auy- 
thiiis  like  a  supply  Is  s>>methins  ihat  i? 
known  to  every  rental  agent  and  every 
fM!rsoii  wim  wants  to  5ecure  a  h'luse.  It 
has*  in  fat-t  reached  the  st  i-;.^  where  it 
may  properly  be  termed  a  hou«e  famino. 
t\»r  the  i»ituatii!n  has  hecome  positively 
serious.  The  most  remarka'ble  thing. 
t<K\  is  that  with  all  the  vacant  property 
in  the  ( ity  of  Duluth  in  desirable  loca- 
tions, vielding  no  rvvenue  to  the  •»\vner>. 
there  is  prohaWy  not  a  single  house  be- 
ing built  in  the  oity  today  to  be  rented. 
There  are  a  number  bfing  built  by  peo- 
ple who  pxpet  to  (Kxuiiy  them  them- 
tftlves.  tnit  that  is  all. 

Any  person  who  does  not  believe  that 
there  is  this  scartiiy  of  dwellings  is  in- 
vited t  I  visit  any  of  the  rental  agencies 
of  the  city.  The  siime  slijry  is  told  al 
e\  try  one  of  them.  Yesterday  a  man 
v^ho  has  just  come  t'i  Duluth  to  be  in 
business  here  went  into  a  reni.il  agency 
on  Superior  street  and  asked  for  a  house 
that  would  cost  ai>out  S::.'i  or  $r.O  a  munth. 
Ke  v\as  i.)l(l  that  suih  a  thins  v' as  al- 
!ro;-t  imi'ossi'.ile  t.»  get.  but  the  rental 
ajrent  v^lunteeied  to  see  what  he  could 
d.  .  He  called  up  all  of  the  leading 
rental  agents,  and  the  same  answer 
lame  from  every  one,  not  ni^  to  be  had. 
Tlie  man  ;j;a\e  expression  to  thi  opinion 
that  It  was  a  queer  town  that  had  so 
fine  a  demand  for  houses  and  ytf  nono 
w<re  Iiuild'ng. 

Fifty  h.usfs  whii  h  would  rent  IMtni 
$22  to"  $3'.  and  HO  a  month  could  bf» 
rented  within  three  days"  time  in  the 
fi«yofDuluih  at  the  present  time. 
There  is  a  ment  demand  for  nice  little 
houses  that  will  rent  for  $2'.  a  month. 
The  population  of  the  city  is  sjrowini; 
every  day  and  new  people  are  coming  in. 
making  the  coujrestion  greato:.  This 
nUl  the  campers  will  i.ime  up  from  the 
I'oint  looking  for  house.-,  and  then  there 
will  be  an  even  greiU<-i  stringency  than 
now. 

That  the  propei  of  the  city 

should  be  awaken.  .  :  li^f  neoi^sity  of 
building  there  is  no  .nie.-tion.  The  pecu- 
liarity of  the  situation  is  that  th^•y  ilo 
nit  themselves  .«ee  th*-  fine  opportunity 
now  before  thom. 

The  belief  that  ii  i  .^ts  too  mu  h  m 
iiuild  is  pr.'bai-ly  re-sponsibb-  for  Ih- 
faet  that  nothing  i.'^  doing  in  the  build- 
irg  line  today.  It  is  true  that  last 
.>prins  the  price  of  Imilding  was  high, 
lion  and  its  products  were  at  the  high- 
est price  in  .years.  Labor  w:i.'=  demaiul- 
iug  lietter  ninuneration  and  ev<-ryt'iing 
gave  to  tht'  property  owner  the  beii-^f 
that  if  he  Wfre  to  tiuihl  he  WiiuM  hav(> 
to  pay  a  great  deal  more  than  he  wouid 
care  to.  That  imi>!e-'=i<m  still  ling'^rs 
with  him.  He  has  not  yet  learned  that 
thert'  has  been  a  change  Today  it  co<i  = 
ecnsiderabiy  less  to  build  than  it  did  three 
or  four  mo..ths  ago.  Several  c<mtra'^-tors 
interviewed  yesterday  all  agreed  that 
the  cost  of  building  was  less  than  it  wa'- 
in  Marih  or  xXpril.  A  contractor,  wh) 
tigurnl  today  on  a  buibling.  will  give  a 
price  runtiiog  from  HI  to  IJl  f-  'onf 
lower  than  he  would  have  Riven 
months  apo. 

The  reason  for  this  is  a  penerrd  redm  - 
lion  in  the  matt  rials  which  enter  into 
building.  Lumber  has  declined  about  3o 
cents  a  thousand  feet.  Iron  is  much 
cheaper.  Of  course  not  very  muc-h  iron 
enters  into  the  building  of  residences. 
but  anyi  uo  who  has  a  large  bill  of  iron 
to  buy  can  get  it  abnit  as  cheap  now 
as  he  could  two  years  ago.  Xails  are 
d(.wn  materially.  Labor  is  cheap.  Men 
that  were  paid  ^i  and  $2.2'i  a  day  a  very 
short  lime  ago  for  c  ?innion  laV>or  are 
n«tw  getting  $1.T.">  a  day.  and  th"  j^rice  is 
not  any  too  strong  at  that.  Brick  anil 
l>ricklayers  are  about  the  same,  for 
there  is  a  heavy  demand  for  them. 

Labor  con^litions  gii'.  e  an  un.^f^ttled 
asfiect  to  affairs  last  ;-pring.  and  the 
contractors  claimed  that  the  troubles 
then  ivonld  kill  building  for  the  year. 
Whether  that  may  be  the  cause  'r  rot, 
the  fa<t  remains  that  at  the  present 
time  there  is  nothing  doing.  But  all 
troubles  have  lK'«'n  adujsted,  and  no 
difficulty  of  that  kind  will  aiise  to  har- 
rass  the  man  wh''  ereci.-^  a  buildiiig  now. 
The  .«cales  are  all  settled,  and  the  con- 
tractor.^  -.r-  r^ady  to  pr-ceed  with  work 
fjuickly.  There  is  another  thing,  too. 
which  should  make  Imilding  ch»^aper. 
Xearly  every  contr.irf.  »•  has  little  work 
.-,11  his  hands,  and  all  are  anxious  for 
something  to  do.  t'.rnMeti'ion  would  I'o 
brisk,  and  the  man  who  would  erect 
three,  or  five,  or  Ivu  hou.'es  c iiild  proii- 
ably  get  a  first  cla.--s  tiginv.  It  is  not  t" 
l>f  suppo»-<1  that  piiceis  of  all  materials 
and  laltor  will  get  down  to  what  they 
were  in  the  hard  times,  and  there  are  no 
IKople  who  would  wish  so.  n't  even  the 
man  building  for  his  r»»nt  would  go 
^lewn.  too.  The  fact  that  pric'-s  of  build- 
ing are  higher  than  (hi-y  were  n  few 
years  ago  is  not  d<  teiring  proper*?' 
•twn^Ts  rver>\vhere  from  building.  All 
around  !>ulutli  tbnre  is  a  large  amouat 
of  ;>uilding.  In  Calumet  more  than  OOO 
houses  arf>  under  v\.iy.  Eveleth  and 
other  rans'   t  iiie  'adding  heavily. 

t<x».   and   the-e   t  e   all    lirawing 

heavily  on  Duluio  -  i.iMiring  men.  A 
larg»  number  of  them  have  b>-'en  sent 
into  Michigan  and  up  on  the  rangea. 

That  this  ;:ubJlrTt  i.-  an  import mt  one 
to  Duluth  every  rental  agent  in  the  city 
asserts  e!nph.'iric.ill> .  .uid  every  on-- 
visiter^  {-aid  yestfivlaj'  that  if  it  were 
po-^stlde  to  make  pri^pctty  holders  see 
the  advantage  of  i)uilding.  it  ought  to

Threats  Do  Hot  Frighten  Her 
If  Police  Will  Pro- 
tect Her. 


Tremblin.g  on  the  brink  of  hysterics, 
Marie  K.  Peterson  told  the  police  ttiat 
two  men  had  accosted  her  on  Superior 
street  about  10  o'clock  this  morning  and 
threatened  many  things  if  she  did  not 
leave  town  immediately.  She  is  the 
young  woman  that  preferred  sensational 
charges  against  William  S.  Whitehead, 
who  v.'a9  bound  over  to  the  srand  jury 
last  evening.  She  did  not  know  either  of 
the  men  that  threatened  her,  but  gave 
the  detectives  a  good  description  and 
they  say  they  have  a  good  idea  of  wiij 
the  men  were. 

Miss  Peterson  said  she  was  walkin:; 
along  the  street  when  one  of  the  men 
stepned   up  and   stopped   her.     He   told

said  to  have  corroborated  the  unkind 
remarks  of  the  first,  even  soing  to  the 
trouble  of  calling  her  several  vile  name.s 
and  threatening  sundry  misfortunes  if 
she  failed  i:o  heed  the  warning. 

The  police  say  they  think  it  is  a 
scheme  to  frighten  Miss  Peter.son  int  > 
leaving  tho  city  so  that  she  could  noi 
appear.  ag;'.inst  Whitehead  when  the 
grand  jury  meets  in  September,  but  the 
friends  of  the  young  man  expressed 
great  surprise  and  some  indijrnation 
vvben  told  of  the  incident  and  said  that 
Miss  Peteison  was  indulging  in  s.oiie 
shaded  conversation. 

"Why,"  M:iid  one  friend  of  Mr.  WTaite- 
head,  'I  am  willing  to  pay  that  girl's 
initiation  ffe  into  some  sort  of  a  foolisn 
house.  She  imght  at  least  to  have  her 
head  examined,  and  the  police  should 
try  and  find  out  where  she  gets  that  new 
kind  of  narcotic." 

Notwithstanding  tCiis.  however,  there 
seems  to  be  no  quistion  of  the  truth  of 
Miss  Peterson's  story.  Although  m.uch 
excited,  she  told  it  well.  She  says  shi- 
will  not  leave  town  as  long  as  the  i.tolici 
stand  by  her,  and  they  promise  her  h'I 
the  protection  necessary.

P\>r  the  lirst  time  in  several  months  a 
ease  of  big  mitt,  work  is  reported  from 
the  Bowel  y  It  Is  nf  the  species  known 
as  "f:eeze  out"  and  two  of  the  congeaier> 
are  in  tlie  cooler.  Several  nights  ago 
a  youngster  iianu'd  Ytove  wan.l:.red  inio 
U.ibert  Dalil's  saloon,  with  his  hands  and 
.1;24  in  his  pockets.  To  the  rounders  th.- 
Iioys  namt  sounded  like  new  mown  hay. 
and  several  pers.ins  th'iiigiu  they  dcte( - 
ted  all  the  marks  of  an  easy  victim  in 
bis  general  appearan.  e.  He  claims  that 
Dalil.  one  of  the  inoprietor.s  renewed  an 
old  acquaintaiK  e  and  invited  him  with 
another  man  to  go  into  a  back  room  an.; 
play  a  little  game  of  "freeze  out,"  Iv. 
I  he  drink.-.  They  played  a  short  time 
when  a  fourth  came  in  and  very  innocent- 
ly in<iuired  what  they  were  doins.  Daid 
is  said  to  have  replied  that  the  stranger 
could  find  out  bv  purchasing  ^5  worth  ot 
chips.  He  bougnt  and  Ytove,  who  had 
been  winning,  had  a  reverse  of  form  that 
left  him  financially  shattered  and  very 
sorrowful  at  the  end  of  a  few  rounds. 
When  he  had  put  up  his  last  dollar  the 
other  three  quit  playing  and  suggeste.l 
that  the  b>)y  have  town  and  hunt  work. 
He  decided  "to  Hunt  detectives  instead  ami 
both  Daiil  and  tlu-  stranger,  whose  nanu 
is  N.  LeBeau,  were  arrested.  LeBeau 
said  he  was  guilty  when  arraigned  thi- 
morning.  but  the  other  man  entered  a 
plea  of  not  guiltv  and  the  hearing  was  set 
for  Thursday.  The  court  will  not  pass 
sentence  on  the  "stranger"  till  Dahl's 
trial   comes   off. 

In  the  m'antim.>  young  Ytoye  is  ab.sorb- 
ing  a  varlKaleil  and  choice  assortment  uf

the  arresttd  men  to  go  into  a  saloon  ar.d 
lalk  the  case  over  this  morning  and  ^e 
gave  them,  what  is  known  in  Bowery  ^..- 
cietv,   as   the  January   countenance. 

Dan  Campbell.  lo<iking  painfully  pros-

Take  the  JT.VlO  it  costs  per  head  to  kill 
its  own  subje<ts  and  those  with  whom 
the  poor  creatures  art'  made  to  fi.ght  in 
South  -Africa,  the  Hoers,  and  with  it 
buy  from  the  En.glish  planters  in  India 
the  grain  the  islands  raised.  In  other 
words,  stop  the  slaughter  in  both  Africa 
and  India. 

I  do  not  believe  that  the  human  in- 
stinct is  so  blunted  among  the  English 
that  they  woubl  not  applaud  Chandier- 
lain,  it"  for  once  he  submitted  to  those 
instincts.  JACOB   LAUX.

AGAINST  PUSL!C  P0UC7. 

Judg^e  Dibell  Ruias  fn   Line  WHh 
Federal  Court  Decisions. 

Jud.ge  Dibell  has  decided  that  it  is 
against  public  policy  for  a  man  to  agree 
to  sell  property  l#:ore  he  enters  upon 
it  under  the  homestead  laws.  In  doing 
ihis  he  follows  the  decisions  of  th.- 
i'nited  Stales  (."urts.  Mis  decision  to 
that  e|t.M  t  v\i>s  filed  in  the 
ease  of  Frederick  (Iroys  and  others 
against  A.  Grochau.  in  which  Gross 
sought  to  compel  Grochau  to  cairy  out 
a  cmtra*  t  lo  deed  him  a  quarter  interest 
111  some  land  011  which  he  was  about 
to  enter  when  the  contract  was  made 
The  case  was  decided  on  the  pleadings, 
and  judgment  is  or.Iereil  for  the  de- 
fendant. Gross  had  paid  part  of  the 
considerati<m,  and  he  does  not  get  judg- 
ment for  this  money  in  this  case,  though 
the  court  states  that  he  has  a  remedy 
in  a  suit  at  law  to  recover  the  money 
he  paid  to  Grochau. 

The  defendant  claimed  that  the  con- 
tract was  contrary  to  public  policy  and 
within  the  statute  of  frauds,  and  the 
court  uph.dils  this  view  and  holds  that 
the  contract  cannot  be  enfcnced.  In  his 
memorandum  Judge  Dibe!]  .says  that  the 
federal  courts  have  held  this  way,  and 
that  as  the  matter  is  one  that  falls 
within  the  province  of  such  courts  their 
decision  must  govern,^ 

I     Vv'hen  you  see  it  in  The  Herald  you 
'  can  rely  upon  it— that  it  is  news  up-to- 
date.

EVELETH  SITE. 

Rearing  of  Ihe  Objections 

Made  to  Vacation  of  Old 

Town  Site. 

The  holiday  languor  of  the  upper 
portif»n  of  the  county  courthouse  wa:> 
slightly  disturbed  this  morning  by  the 
opening  of  court  room  No.  1  for  the 
hearing  of  the  application  to  vacate  t'ae 
plat  of  the  village  of  Eveleth.  The 
village  as  it  orginally  .stood  was  planted 
over  a  big  iron  deposit,  and  now  the 
owners  of  the  mineral  rights  are  trying 
to  get  the  town  off  so  they  can  get  out 
the  ore.  There  was  no  trouble  about 
most  of  thf  town,  for  it  has  already 
been  moved  off  and  it  is  booming  apace 
on  its  new  site.  There  was  some  ob- 
jection, however,  and  this  resuUi  d  in 
the  hearing  this  minning. 

Judge  Dibell  presided,  and  thei-e  was 
enough  interest  in  the  case  to  fill  th<- 
court  room  fairly  well  with  attoinLy.s 
and  parties  in  interest.  The  opposition 
to  the  vacation  of  the  plat  comes  from 
the  village  itself,  which  Is  represented 
by  W.  G.  Bonham,  and  from  a  few 
owners  of  lots  v.ho  hesitate  to  get  off 
and  out  of  the  way  of  the  mining  de- 
velopments. It  is  largely  a  questiiUi  of 
damages  with  these  owners  of  property. 
The  .village  objects  because  its  approach 
to  the  road  leading  to  Virginia  will  bi 
cut  off  if  the  old  site  is  vacated.  J<»hii 
G.  VVillialn^^  and  M.  H.  Stanford  appear 
for  the  petitioners.     . 

The  petitioner.s  are  E.  M.  Fowler.  S. 
J.  Murphy.  C.  O.  Robinson,  E.  H  Flinn 
and  T.  E.  Dorr  and  the  Spruce  Mining 
company.  The  individuals  own  mining 
rights,  and  they  have  leased  them  to  the 
companv,  which  is  to  develop  the  pro- 
perty. All  the  lots  that  were  sold  in 
the  village  of  Eveleth  were  sold  under 
reservation  of  the  mineral  rights.

HARO  PRESSEB, 

Russian  Expedition  to  Harbin 
Threaiened  With  Annihi- 
lation. 

St.  Petersburg.  July  24. — A  dispatch 
whith  has  been  received  here  from  Gen. 
'Irodekoff,  at  Khabarovik,  dated  July 
'S2.  reports  that  the  steamer  Odessa, 
which  left  Charbin,  July  16,  brought 
tidings  of  th?  Ru.=sian  force  that  left 
Teh-Lin  Lin  July  27,  en  route  to  Harbin. 
It  states  that  200  men  started  with  a 
aige  convoy  with  Chinese  Christians. 
M linen  and  children. 

.\fter  con.stant  fighting,  which  wa'^- 
often  at  close  quarters  and  with  liay- 
onet.  they  were?  a.^ain  attacked  by  Hox- 
ers.  July  12.  The  Russians  lost  heavily 
and  ran  short  of  ammunition.  At  last 
accounts  they  were  threatened  by  15,000 
Boxer.s. 

Kngineer  Jugovitch,  at  Charbin,  had 
found  it  impossible  to  send  efficient 
help,  as  he  required  all  his  available

Army  Surgeon  Says  That  the 
Name    Sanitary  Condi- 
tions Are  Horrible. 

U'a^^hington,  July  24. — .-^urgeon  Ger.. 
.Sternl)erg  received  a  report  today  iro±. 
Surgeon  li.  i;.  Eberth,  of  the  army. 
dated  Xome  harbor.  Alaskii.  June  21*. 
which  gives  tiie  details  of  the  conditions 
existing  at  that  jdace.  He  says  that 
within  two  or  three  weeks  the  popu- 
lation has  increased  2700  to  20.000,  with 
tents  and  buildings  irregularly  located 
along  the  l>each.  The  sanitary  con- 
ditions were  \eiy  crude  in  the  fir.~t 
place  and  with  the  influx  of  the  new 
population  have  become  much  worse. 

He  describes  u  horrible  condition  ex- 
isting as  there  is  no  method  of  cleaning 
i;p  the  town  and  no  provisions  for  the 
destruction  cf  accumulations  of  garbage 
and  filih.  I'pon  the  recomm'-ndation  of 
the  surg<-on.  Gen.  Randall  has  issued  a 
circular  erder  directing  the  constructioi; 
of  drains,  the  dn.strui  tion  of  i;arliage 
and  the  r-'moval  of  filth,  but  as  theVi- 
is  no  revenue,  except  voluntary  contri- 
butions, it  is  hard  to  get  anything  done. 
<■  mitnon  laborers  rueive  a  dollar  an 
hour,  niechunics  $l..*iO  an  hoar  and  leam^^ 
$10  an  hour.  Owing  to  the.se  high  pi  ices, 
it  is  almo.ct  impossible  to  cairy  out  the 
iirJeis  of  Gen.  Randall.  All  of  the  com- 
missioners excejit  oni'  have  resigned,  '>v 
ceased   to  act. 

The  thirst  for  l-dIi!  .-xisting  amu.ii; 
the  people  who  have  gone  to  Nome  city 
outweighs  everything  else  and  no  at- 
tention is  paid  to  sanitary  condition. 
There  brave  been  twelve  cases  of  small 
pox  and  one  death.  Measles  has  also 
iiroken  out.  Small  pox,  according  to  the 
report,  was  introduced  by  the  steaiuer.- 
Orerron  and  (Jhio.

GERMAN  PROTECTION. 

Besides  the  regular  patent  the  German 
laws  provide,  since  1891.  for  a  so-called 
"musterschutz,"  which  gives  certain  new 
.•irticles  Ih"  right  of  being  protected 
against  imitation  for  three  years,  and  i.s 
eon.«iderably  cheaper  than  the  patent, 
thouzh  in  effect  similar  to  the  latter,  says 
the  Philadelphia  Press.  The  musterschutz 
i«  essentially  a  protection  of  the  home  ip- 
<lustries,  no"  matter  from  where  the  ar- 
ticle to  be  manufactured  may  have  orig- 
inated. The  formalities,  require  no  oath 
or  statement  as  to  the  origin  of  the  in- 
vention, but  merely  a  declaration  that  the 
^article  has  not  yet  been  offered  freely 
on  the  German  market.

"I  know  we  are  called  the  'kickers'  out 
here,"  said  a  We.st  Dulutti  citizen  yes- 
terday,  "but  just,  the  same  I  think  we 
sometimes  have  a  good  reason  to  kick. 
Now.  just  look  at  Central  avenue.     Did 
you    ever   see   a    dirtier   street?     Guess 
you  would  have  to  go  a  long  way  to  find 
one.    Something  is  wh3lly  and  radically 
wrung  about  the  system  somewhere.  For 
instance,  we  used  to  have  Central  avenue 
cleaned    regularly    twice    a    week.     This 
went    along    satisfactorily    for    a    tinje, 
and  then  the  street  commisioncr  cut  it 
down  a  little  and  the  street  was  cleaned 
one  nigl^t  a  week.     Last  week  the  ave- 
nue was  not  cleaned  at  all.  and  yester- 
day the  wind    blew  the    dirt    about  the 
buildings   and    into    people's   eyes   at    a 
furious  rate.     I  -suppose  that  the  street 
will   be  cleaned  once  in  two  weeks  for 
a  while,  then  once  a  month,  and  finally 
not  at  all.    It  was  a  shame  for  a  resjieft- 
ably  dressed  peison   to  be  umipelled  to 
walk    through    the    dirt    and    tilth    that 
prevailed   yesterday,    when     the     street 
could  just  as  weil  have  been  cleaned  up, 
as  has  been  the  custom."

Two  Policemen  Killed  By  Despera- 
does In  New  Orleans. 

New  «»rieaiis.  .July  24.  — Tolice  Caiii. 
John  T.  Dav  and  Policeman  Peter  J. 
Lamb  are  dead,  and  Policeman  Augu;:t 
T.  Mora  is  suffering  from  three  wounds 
..ne  of  which  is  severe,  the  result  of  an 
.  n.MUiiter  with  two  des|)erate  negroes. 
Li'onard  Pierce  and  Robert  Charles. 

Sergt.  Au(  oin  and  Patrolman  Cantrelle 
and  Mora  attemi)ted  to  arrest  Piei'-e 
and  Charles  last  midnipht  while  thev 
were  seated  on  a  door  step  on  Dryad. \s 
street.  Thev  jumped  up  with  drawn 
i.istols  and  tired  as  they  turned  down 
ihe  street.  Mora  fell.  Cantrill"  contin- 
ued to  shoot  at  Charles  and  the  later 
lied,  leaving  a  trail  of  blood.  Aueoin 
tired  twice  at  Pierce,  who  finally  sur- 
rendered. 

Capt.  Dav.  Patndman  Lamli  and  sev- 
eral ether  officers  went  to  the  alley  of 
ji  house  in  which  the  negro  was  sai-l 
to  be  hiding  and  knocked  at  the  door. 
Charles  dashed  out  and  opened  tire  mi 
the  j)olicemen.  Capt.  Day  and  Patrol- 
man Lami)  fell  mi>rtally  wounded:  the 
others  retreated.  Charles  then  tired 
several  shots  into  the  i>ody  <>f  Day, 
S(r!?eant  Aui.dn  and  Con)oral  Tren- 
chard.  concealed  themselves  in  the  hope 
of  getting  a  shot  at  the  negnv  but  he 
did  not  expose  himself  and  finally  he 
disappeared  .somewhere  in  the  block. 
lOfforts  to  locate  him  were  futile,  though 
there  were  fullv  10<>  police  and  many 
I  ;nmed  citizens  searching  for  the  mur- 
derer. 

The  shooting  created  a  tremendous 
sensation,  and  20,000  people  have  congre- 
gated in  the  vicinity.

THE  GROCEFiS  ORGANIZE. 

TEie    proposed      organization    of      the 
grocers  of  West  Duluth  took  shape  at  a 
meetinff  held  last  night,  and   the   West 
Duluth    Grocers'    Protective    association 
is  now  an  assured  thing,   with  a  mem- 
bership   including    nearly    every    grocer 
in  this  part  of  the  city.  The  initial  meet- 
ing   last      night      was      well      attended. 
Charles    Stewart,    the    oldest    gnx-er    in 
West    Duluth,    was      elected     iircsident. 
The  other  grocers  are:  Secretary.  G.  W. 
Walker;    treasuier,   A.  H.   Donald.     Th( 
executive    committee      is      composed    of 
Brown  Mallough,  PM  Durmedy  and  J.  U. 
Johnson.    This  is  the  tirst  time  in  nearly 
three  years  that  West  Duluth  has  had 
an  organization  of  the  kind  among  the 
gricers,  a  former  association  of  the  -amo 
nature   ceasing   to    exist    at    that    time. 
The  association  is  purely  local  and  doe.- 
iKjt   include,   as   yet.   any   other   line   ol" 
business  fiou.ses.     It  is  not  the  intention 
of  the  ass-Kiatitm,  so  it  is  stated  iiy  the 
otiicers.   to  affc<;t   prices   of  gnxerirs  in 
any    way:    the   object    is   solely   for   the 
purpose  of  protection  among  themselves 
from  poor  credits.

From  the  State  of  Affairs 

During  the  War  With 

Spain. 

From  The  Herald 
Washinfton  Bureau. 

Washington,  July  24.— (Special  to  The 
Herald.)— It  is  conceded  that  this  ad- 
mirrisiration  has  directed  affairs  in  con- 
nection with  the  Chinese  war  very  much 
better  than  was  the  case  when  the 
trouble  between  the  United  States  and 
Spain  was  at  its  height. 

This  government  was  criticised  prin- 
cipally   because   of   its    unpreparedness 
for  the  war  with  Spain.    While  the  peo- 
ple were  in.slstant  that  both  the  Cleve- 
land administration  and  the  McKlnley 
administration  which       followed  should 
liberate   Cuba,    there    were   few    except 
President  Cleveland  and  President  Mc- 
Klnley and  men  of  high  official  positions 
under  them,  who  were  aware  of  the  fact 
that  the  United  States  was  not  prepared 
for    this   conflict,   which    failed   in    very 
many   ways.    As   it   turned  out    it   was 
quite  an  easy  matter  for  Uncle  Sam  to 
beat    the    Spaniards,    but    our    .soldiers 
.suffered  untold  miseries  due  to  the  fact 
that  our  government  was  unable  to  pro- 
vide  them   with    the   necessaries   of   life 
during  the  campaign  in  Cuba  and  else- 
where.    Unscrupulous  men   both  in  the 
administration  and   outside  used  every 
endeavor  possible  to,  purchase  and  dis- 
posed      of  food,   medicine,   and       other 
necessities  to  the  soldiers  at  enormous 
prices  .President  McKinley  could  not  be 
charged   with   having   had  anything   to 
do,  whatever,   with  the  scandals  which 
grew    out    of    this    war.     This    .scandal 
which  became  public  and  threatened  to 
disgrace  the  administration  has  taught 
the  president  and  his  associates  a  lesson 
in  many  ways. 

While  in  manj  iiuarters  it  is  believed 
that    the   president   has-  not   been   quite 
active       enough   in   dealing   with       the 
Chinese  imbroglio,  it  is  a  certainty  that 
our   soldiers   in   the   Flowery    Kingdom 
during    the    contest    now    being    waged 
will  be  well  provided  for  in  every  pos- 
sible way.    This  redounds  to  the  credit 
of  the  administration  and  people  having 
knowledge   of   this  are   not  disposed   to 
criticise  the  president  or  his  closest  ad- 
visors  for    many   little   errors   he    may 
have    made    in    handling    the    Chinese 
question,  for  they  are  fully  aware  of  the 
fact   that  it  is  one  which  is  giving  the 
greatest   powers  of  the    world    fully   as 
much  trouble  as  it  is  the  Ignited  States. 
At    this    writing    it    is    impossible    to 
predict  what   will   be  the  future  action 
(if  this  country  regarding  the  situation 
in   China.    All   the      people,       however, 
partisanship  being      laid      aside.      are 
disposed     to     give     the     president     an 
•  .pportunity  to  sh'-w  whether  or  not  he 
is  fully  capable  of  handling  successfully 
such    a    momentous    crisis    as    that    in 
China.     If    the    president    thinks    he    is 
unable  t(»  handle  the  matter  successfully 
it  is  thought,   with  doubt,  that   he  will 
ask  cimgress  to  assemble  in  extra  ses- 
sion to  assist  him  in  solving  the  Chinese 
puzzle,  which  all  the  great  countries  of 
I  lie    earth    are    attempting   to   solve   at 

the  present  time. 

*    «    « 

All  interest,  just  at  present,  seems 
to  be  centered  in  the  war  in  China,  but 
it  is  to  be  hoped  that  the  people  of  this 
country  are  not  giving  all  their  at- 
tention to  this  state  of  affairs  when 
here  at  home  are  happenings  which 
ought   to  be  look*  d   into. 

A  subject  which  has  claimed  the  at- 
tention of  the  people  of  the  United 
States  for  years  and  years,  that  of 
education.  Particularly  does  this  in- 
terest one  when  it  is  ascertained  what 
has  been  done  by  the  Indians  in  this 
line. 

In  a  spacious  room  of  the  former 
postoffice,  now  occupied  by  the  com- 
missioners of  Indian  i.ffairs,  there  is  an 
exhibit  of  the  industrial  work  of  the 
Indian  schools  of  the  Ignited  States. 
The  exhibit  includes  iron  woik,  wood 
work,  sewing,  lack  work,  kindergarten 
work,  and  in  fact  everything  which  is 
done  in  the  public  schools.  The  skill 
displayed  in  these  works  is  remarkable, 
comparing  favorably  with  the  work  of 
our  public  schools. 

Some  of  the  most  prominent  are  the 
iron  and  steel  works  of  the  Indian  boys 
of  the  Western  K<ho<ils,  among  which 
are  a  large  iron  gate,  with  trimmings 
of  brass,  steel  saws  with  Ixme  handles, 
made  from  the  horns  of  cows,  gathered 
by  the  boys,  large  butcher  knives,  and 
horseshoes.  The  brass  which  orna- 
ments the  gate  is  said  to  have  been  col- 
lected from  old  brass  lamps.  The  wood 
work  al.so  is  very  fine  especially  a  pair 
of  Indian  clubs  carved  by  an  Indian  boy 
who  has  been  in  the  schools  for  eight 
vears.  The  piece  of  work  is  said  to  be 
the  most  remarkable  piece  of  carving 
done  in  the  Indian  schools.  There  are 
also  the  most  perfect  little  reproductions 
of  the  different  shaped  canoes  sent  by 
the  boys  of  Tualip.  Washington,  and 
which  are  of  fine  workmanship. 

Sewing  and  lace  making  is  the 
specialty  of  the  girls  of  the  schools  and 
it  is  surprising  what  has  been  accom- 
plished by  them.  The  handsomest  and 
most  delicate  lace,  known  as  the  mod- 
ern needle  point,  came  from  Minnesota, 
being  made  by  the  oldest  girls  of  the 
schools  and  often  by  the  Indian  women 
who  came  to  the  schools  and  do  the 
cooking  and  the  coarser  work  of  the 
schools  in  order  that  they  may  be 
taught  the  art  of  making  lace  and  learn 
sewing. 

The  Indians  are  also  clever  rug 
makers,  harmonizing  the  colors  with 
great  skill  and  showing  their  ability 
to  reproduce  the  natural  colors  of  the 
flowers.  An  illustration  of  this  is  a 
rug  representing  a  large  bunch  of  sun- 
flowers, the  coloring  being  true  to 
nature,  bordered  by  a  four  inch  strap 
of  green  yarn,  of  which  material  the 
rugs  are  made. 

In  an  interview  with  Miss  Estelle  Reel, 
who  is  at  the  head  of  all  the  Indian 
schools  of  the  United  States,  she  said 
that  the  work  of  managing  the  schools 
was  very  pleasant  and  was  becoming 
more  enjoyable  because  of  the  seeming 
readiness  of  the  Indians  to  adopt  our 
ways.  She  said  that  she  was  proud  of 
the  schools  and  that  plans  for  next  year 
were  under  way  and  would,  she  be- 
lieved, prove  to  be  better  adapted  to 
the  needs  of  the  Indians  than  ever  be- 
fore. She  also  stated  that  while  on  a 
visit  to  Boston,  upon  showing  some 
of  the  drawings  and  watercolor  studies, 
.she  was  informed  that  the  work  of  the 
Indian  girls  and  boys  compared  favor- 
ably with  the  work  of  the  fifth  and 
seventh  grades  of  that  city.  Miss  Reel 
is  a  very  busy  woman  having  to  travel 


MUST  BRING  OOCUIIENTS. 

Writ  In  Powers  Case  For  Telegrams 
and  Records. 

Georgetown,  Ky.,  July  24.^In  the 
Powers  case  today,  the  prosecution  was 
awarded  a  writ  against  the  managers 
of  both  telegraph  offices  at  Frankfort 
requiring  them  to  bring  into  court  all 
the  cipher  telegrams  sent  through  their 
offices  between  the  dates  Dec.  22,  1899. 
and  Feb.  5,  1900,  a  writ  was  also  granted 
against  both. the  secretary  of  state  and 
the  adjutant  general  requiring  them  to 
bring  the  executive  journal  and  other 
records. 

Editor  McDonald,  of  Frankfort,  testifi- 
ed that  on  Jan.  30,  a  few  minutes  prior 
to  the  shooting,  he  saw  W.H.  Culton  and 
another,  whom*  he  thought  was  State 
Inspector  Lester,  standing  at  the  point 
where  Goebel  fell  shortly  afterwards. 
On  Saturday  prior  to  the  assassination, 
witness  saw  a  man  run  down  t^ie  steps 
from  the  executive  hall  and  call  to  a 
crowd  of  mountain  men.  "Go  and  get 
your  guns,  it's  time  for  the  srooting  to 
begin."  Representative  Berry  (Re- 
publican) had  just  been  unseated. 
Witness  did  not  know  the  man. 

Frank  Heeney,  a  Frankfort  merchant, 
whose  store  is  on  Broadway  opposite 
the  state  house  yard,  heard  the  shots 
and  ran  to  his  front  door  and  saw  Goo- 
bel's  body  on  the  pavement.  No  one 
was  near.  He  did  not  see  either  Jack 
Chlnn  or  Eph  Lillard. 

R.  H.  Berryman,  of  Frankfort,  was 
the  last  witness  at  the  morning  session. 
His  direct  testimony  did  not  elicit  any- 
thing new.

A  TRAGEDY, 

The  Awful  Deed  of  a  Well 

known  Cleveland  Man's 

Wife. 

Philadelphia,  July  24.— An  investiga- 
tion by  the  police  into  the  death  last 
night  of  Mrs.  Charles  Marchand  and  her 
6-year-old  daughter  proved  conclusively 
that  the  woman  gave  the  child  carbolic 
acid  and  then  committed  suicide.  Th^ 
husband,  who  was  taken  into  custody 
after  the  double  death,  was  released  to- 
day. Marchand  came  here  from  Cleve- 
land, where  at  one  time  he  was  auito 
wealthy.  He  formerly  owned  the 
Kuclid  Avenue  Opera  house  in  that  city, 
and  is  said  to  have  been  a  boyhood 
companion  and  friend  of  Senator  Hanna 
and  Frank  Rockefeller.  Marchands 
fortune  has  entirely  disanneared.  He 
has  been  twice  married  and  has  a  daugh- 
ter in  Brooklyn.  The  woman  who  com- 
mitted the  double  crime  last  night  was. 
before  her  marriage.  Miss  Mary  Rogers, 
of  Minneaiwlis,  and  her  family  is  said  tj 
be  wealthy. 

JESTER'S  TURN  NOW. 

State  Closes  and  the  Defense  Pre- 
sents Its  Case. 

New  London,  July  24.— Evidence  was 
closed  today  for  the  nrosecution  in  the

Caz>t.  Julius  Dunn,  70  years  of  ag.^ 
residing  near  Moberly,  took  the  stand

of  fresh  blood  in  Hulen  lane  In  the 
winter  of  1871.  A  few  days  later  the 
witness  heai-d  that  two  men  answering 
the  description  of  Jester  and  Gates 
had   nassed  through. 

Jester  declared  this  afternoon  that  he 
had  heard  some  remarkable  misstate- 
ments from  the  witness  stand,  even  from 
his  relatives.  He  declared  that  he  is 
being  persecuted. 

BEATS  THE  RECORD. 

Deutchland  Sets  a  New  Mark  For 
Atlantio  Liners. 

London,  July  24.— The  new  Hamburg 
American  line  steamer  Deutchland, 
Capt.  Albers,  from  New  York,  arrived 
at  Plymouth  at  8:30  o'clock  this  morn- 
ing on  her  maiden  trip  eastward,  mak- 
ing a  record  run  of  5  days.  14  hours  and 
6  minutes  despite  two  days  of  fog.  Her 
biggest  day's  run  was  made  on  July  19. 
her  second  day  out,  when  5a«  miles  was 

logged.  .         ,    u

HEARING_OF  NEELY. 

Loose  System  ot  Handling  Money  Ui 
the  Office. 

New  York,  July  24.— The  hearing  in 
the  case  of  C.  F.  W.  Neeley  was  con 
tinned  today,  with  Oeorge  Marshal,  of 
the  finance  department  in  Cuba,  on  the 
witness  stand.  Ignited  States  Attorney 
Burnett,  of  the  prosecution  paid  parti- 
cular attention  to  the  fact  that  the 
safe  which  contained  whatever  funds 
were  in  the  postoffice  had  its  outer  door 
always  opened  and  there  was  a  general 
laxness  about  handling  the  funds.  John 
D.  Lindsay,  of  the  defense,  brought  out 
on  cross-examination  the  fact  that  the 
employes  of  the  office  all  had  access  to 
the  safe  as  well  as  the  employes  of  the 
money  bureau  who  kept  their  money 
order  blanks  in  the  safe.  Several  em- 
ployes had  access  to  the  safe;  the  door 
was  never  locked,  and  the  moneys  were 
placed  in  three  drawers  in  plain  view 
and  of  easy  access. 

William    Hoffman,    assistant    cashier 
of  the  North  American  Trust  company, 

verified  various  deposits  madfe  with 
his  company  by  Hr.  Neeley. Maj.  Eugune 

F.  Sadd,  treasurer  of  the  island  of 
Cuba,  the  next  witness,  verified  various 
deposits   made   with    him.

BOUQUETS  FOR'  JAPAN.

Washington.  July  24.— The  following 
telegram  has  been  leceived  from  the  Jap- 
anese minister  for  foreign  affairs,  under 
date  of  the  22nd  instant,  and  it  is  the  re- 
port of  the  Japanes'j  consul  at  Tein  Tsin. 
who  wired  it  on  the  21at:  ,     ,     ,^, 

"The  Japanese  troops  behaved  admirably 
and  maintained  strict  discipline  after  the 
fall  of  Tien  Tsin  city.  The  Chinese  who 
remained  in  the  city  and  those  who  lived 
outside  came  to  tlie  Japanese  quarters 
with  a  large*  flag  bearing  an  inscription 
expression  their  sut  mission  to  Japan,  and 
showed  their  appreciation  of  the  unexcep- 
tionable behavior  of  our  troops.  Thev  also 
brought  to  our  centry  calie.  fruit  and 
tea  in  token  of  their  friendly  feeling.  Our 
troops  are  thus  daily  gaining  the  conh- 
dence   and   respect   of   the   native    popula- 

"Tlen  Tsin  city  is  occupied  by  the  troops 
of  four  powers  In  ihe  following  sections, 
namely,  from  the  north  gate  to  the  east

Washington.  July  2.>.— The  state  de- 
partment has  received  a  cablebram  from 
Consul  McWade,  at  Canton,  s-ayingr  that 
Viceroy  Tak  gives  assurances  that  all 
the  foreign  envoys  at  Pekin  were  alive 
aiiu   well   on  July   22. 

The  message  from  Minister  Conger 
which  came  over  the  wires  from  Capt. 
Thomas  this  morning  was  the  first  com- 
munication if  unquestionable  authen- 
ticity which  has  been  received  from  the 
American  minister  at  Pekin.  since  his 
urgent  appeal  for  helj)  of  July  12.  It 
establishes  clearly  the  fact  that  the 
American  minister,  and  probably  the 
ot^er  Ifgiiinii.-  .vere  alive  on  July  4, 
though  in  sore  straits.  Therefore,  ic 
completely  and  finally  Jispo3?s  of  the 
fiis.  stories  that  were  publisaed  fnirn 
Shanghai,  of  the  massacre  of  June  27. 

It  is  true  that  it  does  not.  in  itself, 
r.tgative  tho  subsequent  teports  o'  the 
ma.ssacre  on  July  6.  two  days  later  than 
tiip  day  of  the  dispatch,  but  the  officials 
here  feel  that  thf  re  is  quite  as  much 
rea.«on  to  beleve  that  the  secv^nd  report 
was  false  as  in  the  case  of  the  first 
report  now  Pho%vn  to  have  been  er- 
ronoue.

Ti»n  Tsln. 

Tien  T.^in.  Wedne.sday.  July  il.  via 
Shanghai.  Tuesday,  July  24.— (Copy-

(T.  the  railway  station  across  thi-  ri>ei 
from  the  foreign  settlement.  A  r<>giment 
of  Japanese,  a  battalion  of  Frpnch  fnrni 

Tonquin  and  the  Hong  Kong  Sikhs  par- 
ticipated hi  the  fighting,  driving  the 
Chinese  lieforo  them  at  the  point  of  tlivir

them. 

The  allies  had  planned  a  general  mave- 
ment  asainsi  the  Chinese  positi  )n,  and 
a  contingent  of  the  Ninth  United  Statet 
infantry  landed  at  midnight,  prepared 
to  advance.  The  movement  was  post- 
poned, however,  after  a  part  of  tl'e 
troops  had  started  on  account  of  thn 
difflcultii-3  en:f>untered  in  crossing  tho 
car.:;!s.  The  Chinese,  apparently,  had 
been  informed  of  the  plan,  and  gathered 
a  large  force  opposite  tlie  station.  The.-^.; 
op.ned  \\ith  rifles  and  field  gur,-.  anr". 
the  engineer.^  advancing  were  m:'t  by  a

o'clock  and  lasted  four  hours,  becoming 
a  hand  to  hind  conflict.  The  Japanese 
.ompany  leading  the  charge  lo.st  all  its 
officers.  Five  Japane.-e  officers  an*, 
fifteen  nrivares  and  six  Frenchmen  were 
killed,  and  tliree  Sikhs  were  killed  and

Washington.  July  25.— Following  ,ls 
the  report  to  the  secretary  of  the  navy 
of  the  action  made  by  Commander  Wise 
of  the  Monocacy  to  Rear  Admiral 
Kempff: 

"United  States  steamship  Monocacy, 
Tong  Ku,  China.  June  17,  1900.— Sir:  I 
liave  the  honor  to  report  upon  the  occur- 
rences since  yesterday  noon.  1  attend- 
ed a  meeting  of  officers  at  6  p.  m.  on 
board  the  Borbora.  t  was  shown  the 
protocol  and  ultimatum  as  to  the  Taku 
forts.  The  signatures  to  the  document 
were  autographic,  and  as  yours  was  not 
appended.  I  Informed  the  senior  officer 
that  he  would  have  to  leave  the  Mono- 
cacy out  of  the  plans  and  places  for  veg- 
sels  of  the  atacking  forces. 

"The  first  gun  w.is  fired  at  12:45,  and, 
with  the  simultaneou?  discharge  that 
followed,  two  of  the  shots  passed  over 
the  Monocacy.  although  she  was  otit  of 
the  line  of  fire  between  the  force  and 
vessels.  The  litis  did  not  leave  her 
berth,  which  was  a  short  distance  from 
mine,  until  10:30.  and  the  Japan  did  not 
leave  hers  during  the  bombardment. 

"The  fire  was  well  sustained  on  both 
sides,  and  although  shells  continued  at 
Intervals  to  pass  near  me.  or  burst  short 
or  beyond,  I  attributed  It  to  a  wild  firing 
by  the  forts. 

"Aixiut  2:;i0  I  was  .standing  on  top  of 
the  pilot  house,  by  the  Oatling.  I  had 
mounted  there,  when  I  heard  a  shell 
approaching,  and  immediately  a  crash. 
The  second  cutter,  hanging  at  her  davit.s 
a  few  feet  below  and  l)ehind  me.  had 
been  struck  l>y  a  shell.  It  entered  her 
stern,  tore  out' the  bottom,  and.  ranging 
diagonally  across  the  ship,  smashed  the 
port  forecastle  ladder  and  passed 
thjiiugh  the  shin's  side,  in  which  it  left 
a  tlear  cut.  two  feet  by  ten  inches. 

"There  were  many  men  on  the  forward 
main  deck,  and  the  shell  must  have  gone 
as  clo.se  to  some  of  them  as  it  did  to  me. 
It  fortunately  missed  the  launch  s 
(i.\vit,  as  i*^  would  hflve  <  ?,used  It  to  ex- 
oiode.  '  '- 

"It  was  difficult  U^  make  out  how  the 
al'-le.s  were  faring,  but  they  were  evi- 
dentlv  closing  in,  as  after  3  a.  m.  dis- 
charge? from  guns  like  Gatllngs  or 
Maxims  were  heard.  At  4  o'clock  there 
w.'^s  a  tremendous  explosion  and  a  ma.ss 
of  flame,  which  I  attributed  to  a  maga- 
zine in  one  of  the  forts. 

"Towaids  4  o'clock  the  bursting  of 
shells  in  my  near  vicinity  increased  to 
such  an  extent  that  it  occurred  to  me 
that  the  forts  might  be  directing  some 
of  their  fire  on  the  railroad  station,  as 
in  this  flat  country  it  was  a  prominent 
mark  and  a  number  of  Jaoanese  and 
Russian  troor>s  were  encamped  around 
it.  In  such  case  the  Monocacy  would  be 
in  considerable  danger  from  a  fire  which 
T  had  considered  bad  shooting.  Acting 
uDon  the  thought.  I  at  once  cast  off 
everything.  I  steamed  away  from  lac 
bank  and  went  two  miles  uo  the  river, 
anchoring  In  the  fir.'^t  bend.  Thi.'^  move 
was  made  at  4:50,  and  at  5:30  the  fire 
slackening  and  a  Japanese  flag  floating 
over  one  of  the  fort.';.  I  returned  to  my 
berth. 

•This  place  is  deserted  by  everyone: 
no  trains,  no  telegraphic  communication 
or  shore,  but  I  had  a  'phone  from  Mr. 
Pottengilh  who  reports  all  quiet  since 
th.«  first  disturbance.  I  know  nothing  of 
the  fight  except  that  the  forts  were 
taken. 

"I  feel  a  natural  regret,  shared  no 
doubt  by  the  officer-',  that  duty  and 
orders  prevented  the  old  Monocacy  from 
giving  her  ancient  smooth-bores  a  last 
chance. 

"Very  respectfully. 
"F.    M.  WISE.    Commander  T'.    P.    N..

Escape  By  a  Narrow 

Window  Coping. 


London,  July  25.— The  tone  of  the 
European  press  with  regard  to  the  mess- 
age dated  July  4,  received  here  yesterday 
from  the  British  minister  at  Pekin,  Sir 
Claude  MacDonald,  continues  pessimis- 
tic, and  the  endless  and  extraordinary 
succession  of  Chinese  dispatches  pur- 
porting to  describe  the  situallDn  at  Pe- 
kin only  serves  to  bewilder.  However, 
the  earlier  unauestioning  belief  that  a 
massacre  took  place  has,  to  some  extent, 
been  shaken,  and  it  is  now  admitted, 
despite  the  heavy  load  of  evidence  sup- 
porting the  reports  of  the  massacre, 
that  as   Sir  Claude  MacDjnaid's  letter 

disposed  of  the  first  story  alleging  that 
the  crime  occurred  June  30.  so  Minister 
C<mger"s  dispatch  and  other  stories  re- 
porting the  legations  safe  July  10.  14 
and  18  gives  some  ground  for  assuming 
the  possibility  that  the  second  reports 
were  als)  unfounded. 

Another  version  of  the  story  which 
reached  Gen  Li,  commanding  the  Pel 
Tang  forts,  by  a  runner  from  Pekin,  vvhi 
brought  to  him  yesterday  the  report  of 
anarchy  In  the  Chinese  capital,  which 
Gen.  Li  communicated  to  the  British 
officer  commanding  at  Tongu.  says  the 
British  legation  was  being  bombarded 
when  the  messenger  left  Pekin  July  14. 

Prince  Ching,  this  report  says,  was  as- 
sisting the  ministers,  and  his  palace  was 
protected  by  10,000  Chinese  troops. 
Prince  Ching,  according  to  this  report, 
considered  himself  able  to  cope  with  the 
situation. 

According  t^  a  dispatch  from  Che  Foo. 
received  here  today.  Admiral  Seymour 
had  started  for  the  Yang  Tse  river  to 
arrange  for  the  protection  of  the  local 
ports  which  are  threatened  with  attack. 
The  Austrian  wraships  Kalserina  Eliza- 
beth and  Aspern  have  sailed  for  China.. 

There  is  some  fear  in  London  that  the 
Russian  claim  to  control  of  the  railway 
from  Taku  to  Pekin  will  delay  the  pro- 
posed advance  of  the  allies  to  Pekin.  It 
Is  thought  that  tins  claim  Is  In  pursuance 
of  Russia's  alleged  fixed  principle  to  pre- 
vent any  power  but  herself  from  pene- 
trating to  Pekin  in  sufficient  force  to  be 
effective,  and  to  procure  for  herself  sole 
occupation,  either  as  conqueror  or  peace- 
m.a'Ker. 

Special  dispatches  received  here  today 
from  Berlin  compare  the  replies  oi 
President  McKlnky  and  the  German 
minister  of  foreign  affairs.  Count  Von 
Buelow,  to  the  Chinese  emperor's  ap- 
neal.  from  the  standpoint  obtaining  at 
Berlin,  that  the  object  of  all  Chlne:;e 
assurances  Is  to  gain  time  for  military 
preparations  and  undermine  the  unity 
of  the  powers.  The  Morning  Post's  Ber- 
lin corresuondent  asserts  that  the  atti- 
tude of  the  United  State's  government 
is  regarded  as  a  decided  triumph  for 
Cfiinise  diolomacy,  while  the  Daily 
News  says  the  attitude  of  the  Wash- 
ington aut.»^orities  Is  regarded  In  Berlin 
as  a  regrettable  error.  Similarly,  t-ie 
London  afternoon  paners  regret  "that 
the  president  of  the  United 
taken  a  line  that  can 
encourage  the  Chinese 
plicity." 

The  Pall  Mall  Gazette  says: 

"Surely  this  i.s  not  the  time  for  amiable 
teatable  talk  abDUt  agreements  and  set- 
tlements. President  McKlnley  ha;? 
merely  succeeded  in  .conveying  the  im- 
pression to  Pekin  that  the  United  States 
will  enter  half-heartedly  Into  a  cam- 
paign of  reprisals.  His  exuberant  cour- 
tesy may  not.  however,  have  much  bad 
result,  as  generals  must  soon  take  the 
conduct  of 
hands."

Chicago.  July  25.— Shortly  before  noon 
today  an  explosion  occurred  In  the 
chemical  department  of  the  Windsor 
Celluloid  company,  on  the  fourth  floor 
of  125  Dearborn  stieet,  .setting  fire  to  the 
building  and  resulting  in  the  death  of 
three  women,  the  fatal  injury  of  an- 
other and  minor  injuries  to  five  other 
persons.    The  proierty  loss  was  small. 

The  dead: 

Mrs.  Ellen  McLaughlin. 

Two  unknown  girls. 

Injured: 

Gray  Peterson,  fatally. 

Viola  Ritier. 

Etta  Munsell. 

Jennie  Munsell. 

G.  I.  Walter. 

There  were  twenty  girls  working  in 
the  place  when  a  terrific  explosion  oc- 
curred, blowing  t  le  glass  of  the  front 
windows  across  Dearborn  street.  A 
sheet  of  flame  fcllowed  Instantly,  and 
the  terror  stricken  girls,  with  their 
clothing  afire,  crawled  through  the  win-

the  windows  of  which  were  thronged 
with  men  calling  encouragement  to  the 
terrififd  girls.  As  fast  as  they  could  be 
reacheti  they  wen  drawn  in. 

Just  as  Mrs.  McLaughlin  was  about  to 
be  helped  through  a  window,  the  girl 
behind,  in  her  haste,  pushed  Mrs.  Mc- 
Laughlin, who  lost  her  balance  and  fell 
tc  the  pavement,  dying  instantly. 

The  two  unkno.vn  dead  girls  jumped 
from  rear  windows.  One  was  picked  up 
dead,  and  the  other  died  at  the  hos- 
pital.

the 


NOT  THE  PRESENT  CODE. 

Copy  of  the  Did  State  Department 
Cipher  Missing. 

Washington,  July  2'>.  -A  discussion  of 
the  autheliclty  of  the  dispatch  from 
Minister  Conger  dated  at  Pekin  on  the 
18th  instant,  disclosed  the  fact  today, 
that  several  years  ago  a  copy  of  the 
state  department  cipher  code  disappear- 
ed and  never  has  l)een  recovered.  These 
lOd^  books  ..  le  jmbt'ed  and  receipted 
for  when  placed  in  the  hands  of  those 
entitled  to  them.  The  Intimation  was 
given  that  the  missmg  code  book  fell 
into  the  hands  of  the  Chinese  govern- 
ment. This  information  was  calculated 
to  inspire  a  doubt  of  the  authenticity 
of  the  Conger  message. 

State  department  officials  decline  to 
discuss  the  story  of  the  theft  of  the 
code  book,  but  do  enter  a  denial  that 
thev  ever  entertained  a  suspicion  that 
It  had  fallen  Into  the  hands  of  the 
Chinese  government.  It  Is  known  that 
several  vears  ago  a  copy  of  the  old  state 
department  cypher,  which  since  has 
been  cahnged.  was  made.  A  copy  of  this, 
the  authorities  have  strong  reasons  to 
l>elleve,  found  its  way  into  the  posses- 
sion of  another  government,  net  the 
Chinese.  This  old  code  has  been  out  of 
use  for  manv  years,  having  been  re- 
placed by  one  which  the  state  depart- 
ment ofl[icials  regard  as  much  better.

The  defense  subpoenaed  him  for  the

HELD  COUNCIL 

Taylor,  Powors,  Culton  and 

Finley  Had  Their  Heads 

Togeiliier  Gffen. 

Georgetown.  Kj.,  July  25. — A  dozen  or 
more  witnesses  who  had  been  summoned 
on  behalf  of  the  commonwealth  in  the 
Powers  trial  we -e  excused  today,  0:1 
motion  of  the  prosecution.  As  the  sam.e 
thing  has  occurred  each  morning  tbis 
week,  the  total  IHt  of  witnesses  for  thi 
prosecution  has  been  reduced  materially. 
Seme  of  those  erccused  were  put  upon 
their  recognizance  to  appear  and  testify 
in  the  cases  of  Henry  Youtsey  and 
ethers. 

This  was  the  fifteenth  day  of  the 
trial.  The  defen.-e  asked  that  Robert 
Xoakes  be  recalled  for  questions  on  one 
point.  Noakes  was  asked  to  fix  the  time 
of  the  several  conversations  he  cliimed 
to  have  had  with  Caleb  Powers  at 
Frankfort,  Jan.  25. 

McKinzle  Lodd  who  was  private  sec- 
retary to  Governor  Taylor,  was  tne  next 
witness  called.  AVitness  had  seen  Gov- 
ernor Taylor  in  conference  with  Powers. 
Culton.  Finley  £nd  others  frequently. 
He  saw  Caleb  Powers  and  Yout:-cy  to- 
gether Jan.  30.  Later  the  same  day  wit- 
less  saw  Youtsey  come  into  the  general 
reception  room  of  the  governor  carrying 
a  gun.  Youtsey  took  a  position  by  a 
window,  and  later  went  into  the  office  of 
the  secretary  of  state,  where  h.*  knelt 
down  by  a  window,  pointing  the  gun 
out  of  it.  Powers  saw  Youtsey,  and 
asked  witness  to  get  him  out  of  the 
room.  Witness  asked  Youtsey  what  he 
was  doing  there  with  a  gun'.'  Yout.sey 
replied  that  ther^  was  trouble  in  the 
legislative  building.  Witness  told  him 
the  legislature  had  adjourned,  and  asked 
Youtsey  what  he  Intended  to  do  in  case 
of  trouble?    Youtsey  said: 

"I  don't  Intend  to  start  trouble,  but  If 
it  starts,  this  l)u  Iding  must  be  i»rotect- 
fcd." 

Witness  said  Caleb  Powers  joined  In 
the  conversation,  and  told  Youtsiy  it 
would  never  do  for  any  one  to  shoot 
from  that  building.  Yutsey  had  the 
window  ral.sed  :tnd  the  blind  pulled 
down.  Witness  left  the  room,  Youtsey 
and  Powers  remaining. 

On  Monday  follo%vlng.  Powers  camo  to 
the  witness  and  told  him  Youtsey  was 
outside  and  wanted  admission  to  the 
office  of  secretarj-  of  state.  Powers  said 
Youtsey  acted  so  peculiar  that  he  did 
not  want  him  around,  and  asked  witness 
to  get  him  away. 

On  Saturday  prior  to  the  assassination 
witness  saw  three  guns  in  the  jfiico  of 
the  secretary  of  state.  Yout<-ey  called 
attention  of  the  witness  to  them  by  re- 
moving a  plank  under  which  they  were 
concealed.    Youtsey  said: 

"Powers  claims  to  be  a  brave  man,  but 
he  hid  his  gun." 

A  TRAIN  WRECKED. 

Oao  Man  Kliled  In  an  Eastern  Illi- 
nois Accident. 

Benton.  111.,  Jaly  25.— A  solid  vesti- 
bule passenger  train,  southbound,  on  the 
Chicago  &  Eastern  Illinois  railway,  was

'FRISCO  GETS  IT. 
Wichita,  Kan.,  July  25.— The  Kansas  Mid- 
land railwav  was  sold  at  public  sale  in  this 
citv  today  by  J.  F.  Shearman,  clerk  of  the 
ITnited  States  district  court,  to  Alfred  R. 
Peck  and  Harrv  Bronner,  representing  the 
bondholders,  for  $500,000.  The  road  will 
pass  into  the  hanis  of  the  'Frisco  system. 


Indianapolis.  July  25.— If  the  matter  U 
left  to  the  national  committee  of  the  gold 
standard  Democrats,  which  meets  here 
this  afternoon,  there  will  l>e  no  gold 
standard  Democratic  ticket  in  the  field. 
While  the  committee  cannot  settle  the 
question,  its  recommendation  will  have 
great  weight. 

There  is  a  feeling  among  the  gold 
Democrats  here  that  the  anti-Imperial- 
ists, or  Independents,  can  put  a  ticket  in 
the  field  if  they  wish  to.  and  that  it  will 
be  independent  of  the  gold  standard 
Democrats. 

The  committee  of  the  national  Demo- 
crats will,  after  the  meeting.  Issue  an 
address  which  will  be  in  the  form  of  a 
platform,  and  will  reaffirm  the  position 
taken  in  1S96.  The  members  will  be  per- 
mitted to  vote  as  they  please. 

Nine  members  of  the  committee  of 
fifteen  appointed  by  the  Plaza  hotel 
(New  York)  meeting  of  antl-lmperlalists 
to  visit  the  meeting  of  the  national 
DenuK-ratic  committee  here  today  are  in 
the  city.  It  Is  not  probable  that  others 
will  come.  Those  now  here  are:  Thomas 
M.  Osliorne,  of  Auburn,  N.  Y.,  chair- 
man of  the  committee;  John  Jay  Chap- 
man Jacob  F.  Miller,  Joseph  W.  Price, 
W.  H.  Riley.  M.  D.  Rothschild,  Everltt 
A.  Abbott  and  Alfred  Brooks  Robinson, 
of  New  York  city,  and  Robert  A.  Wid- 
mlnn.  of  Nanuet,  N.  Y. 

It  Is  not  likely  that  this  committee 
will  do  anything  else  than  to  present  its 
ca.=e  to  the  national  Democratic  com- 
mittee and  ask  It  to  place  another  tlr-ket 
in  the  field. 

Should  the  national  Democrats  decide 
not  to  put  another  ticket  In  the  field, 
the  anti-imperlallsts  will  look  to  the 
Antl-Imperiallst  league,  which  will  meet 
here  Aug.  1.5,  to  place  a  ticket  In  the 
field. 


TIP  TO  APPLICANTS. 
Chicago.  July  2>.— So  many  applications 
have  been  received  at  Republican  head- 
quarters for  positions  of  various  kinds,  in- 
cluding messengers.  laborers,  writers,

Secretarv  Perry  S.  Heath  has  requested 
the  Associated  Piess  to  state  that  afi  ap- 
plications for  positions  shall  be  submitted 
to  the  committee  in  writing,  and  sl-.ould 
bear  the  endorsement  of  the  national  com- 
mittee or  the  national  committeeman  in 
the  state  in  which  applicant  is  located. 


BURN  TIMBER. 

Indians  In  Hontana  Start  Fh«s 

and  Destroy  Millions 

of  Acres. 

St.  Paul.  July  25.— A  Dispatch  special 
from  Kallspell.  Mont.,  says:  One  of  the 
worst  forest  fires  ever  known  in  North- 
western Montana  is  now  raging  in  Swan 
sake  county,  on  the  western  p?ri  of  the 
Lewis  and  Clark  forest  reserve.  Gus  Mos- 
ler.  superintendent  of  the  re*<?rve.  reports 
that  the  Indians  deliberately  sei  lire  to  the 
timber  and  are  slaughtering  the  gam?.  He 
will  proceed  against  the  perpetrators. 
Within  the  space  of  thirty  miles  up  and 
clown  the  river,  he  says,  thtre  are  over 
tiiirtv  fir<  .s  now  burning  fiercely.  He  says 
that  manv  millions  of  acre*  are  being 
burned,  and  that  it  Is  almost  Impossible 
to  estimate  the  damage.  As  fasi  as  one 
fire  is  extinguished,  another  i.s  set  an-l 
bis  rangers  are  almost  worn  out.  Th-J 
weather  is  v<ry  hot  and  dry,  and  the  fires 
spread  rapidly. 

AN  ELEVATOR  BURNED. 

The  Eastern,  at  Buffalo,  Boos  Up  In 
Smoke. 

Buffalo,  N.  Y..  July  25.— Fire  last  night 
destroyed  the  East^n  elevator,  which 
Is  situated  on  the  Island  opposite  the 
foot  of  Washington  street.  The  elevator 
and  its  contents  were  valued  at  $750,000 
and  are  a  total  loss. 

The  cause  of  the  fire  was  not  learned. 
The  watchman  reports  that  half  an  hour 
before  the  flames  were  dLscovered  that 
everything  was  in  good  shape.  There 
was  no  explosion  i»receding  the  fire. 
Carpenters  and  painters  had  been  at 
work  In  the  building,  and  It  Is  possible 
that  some  of  them  dropped  a  match. 

The  elevator  was  owned  by  the  Ameri- 
can Linseed  Oil  company,  which  came 
into  possession  of  the  building  only  a 
few  weeks  ago.  Its  oil  works  are  situat- 
ed within  100  feet  of  the  burned  elevator. 

When  It  was  seen  that  there  wan  no 
chance  to  save  the  elevator,  the  fire- 
men turned  their  attention  to  the  ad- 
joining property.  Streams  of  water 
were  played  continually  on  the  oil  tanks 
and  the  buildings  of  the  refinery.  The 
fire  was  a  difficult  one  to  fight,  as  it 
started  In  the  upper  part  of  the  elevator 
and  gradually  burned  downward  until 
the  entire  building  was  destroyed.  The 
intense  heat  made  it  impossible  for  the 
firemen  to  enter  the  building  and  the 
streams  thrown  up  from  the  creek  below 
had  little  effect  In  checking  the  flames.

was  not  h.ivai:^  smooth  sailing.  H't 
crops  iH'l  mil  turn  out  well  and  h«-r  litli-; 
farm  was  almtii  to  l)»'vom>.'  involved  ill 
kgal  c'lit'-ntion.  The  district  judge  ad- 
vised hir  that  sh<'  coiilrl  save  th*^  faim  to 
herself  and  her  husi>aiid,  should  he  cvtr 
return,  by  getting  a  divorce  on  the 
grotmds  of  il*'s»rtiim.  Foi-  a  long  time 
siie  wavered,  but  was  at  last  |)ersuaded. 
The  divorce  was  secured  and  the  farut 
given   to   her  as   alim"ny. 

Another  year  rolle«l  around  and  then 
came  the  "news  that  her  husband  had 
struck  it  rich.  One  of  the  four  daimy 
held  li.v  the  i)artners  had  cleaned  up  $j^.- 
tXW.  Cutler  was  coming  back  to  take  his 
wife  and  children  from  their  poverty  ano 
obscurity.  The  other  claims  as  yet  uu- 
worked  were  good  propprty.  they  were 
rich. 

Then    came    the    tii  ;he    divorced 

wifes  trial.  Would  ilie  husband  from 
whom  she  was  legally  separated  that  their 
little  home  might  be  saved  to  iiim  should 
he  ever  return  from  the  frozen  North  un- 
dfrstand.  or  would  he  think  that  she  had 
cast  him  out  of  her  heart  because  of  his 
poverty?  The  husbands  faith  was  strong. 
He  knew  that  his  wife  had  acted  for  liie 
best,  and  he  wanted  her  and  his  boys. 

He  arrived  at  Seattle  on  the  steamer 
ilitrone.  June  29.  Plans  were  perfected 
by  mail,  and  Saturday  his  wife  and  Ixns 
met  him  in  Omaha  and  the  reunited  fani- 
iiy  came  to  St.  Paul. 

Yesterday,  on  the  thirteenth  anniver- 
sary of  their  first  wediing,  Mr.  and  Mrs. 
I'uller  were  again  married.  They  leave 
this  afternoon  for  Seattle,  where  they 
will  make  th«  ir  home  temporarily.  Mi. 
Culler  will  return  to  the  gold  fields  ne,\t 
spring,  in  the  meantime  he  will  sp.  !id 
his  time  and  money  in  making  amends 
for  the  t)rivations  his  wife  and  little  ones 
have  suffered.  Mr.  Cutler  is  40  years  ot 
age,  his  wife  only  2S,  and  qidte  pretty. 
The  children,  Martin  and  Charle.<,»  are 
bright  little  fellows  of  12  and  s  years, 
respectively. 


I  "The'park  question  is  still  being 
strongly  advocated  at  West  Duluth,"  j 
said  a  West  Duluthian  yesterday.  "The  j 
feeling  that  the  city  ougrt  to  have  a  | 
park  on  the  St.  Louis  river  front  here  j 
has  only  been  intensified  by  the  news 
that  S.  E.  Kilner,  treasurer  of  the  Land 
and  River  company  of  New  York,  and 
who  represents  the  Billings  estate,  has 
been  in  w'est  Superior  for  several  days 
negotiating  for  a  transfer  of  some  eighty 
acres  of  the  estate  fronting  on  the  St. 
Louis  river  to  the  city  of  Superior  for 
park  purposes.  Mr.  Kilner  has  laid  the 
matter  before  Mayor  Parker  of  that  city 
and  stated  the  conditions  attached  tg,  the 
transfer.  He  left  last  night  for  New, 
York  to  report  to  the  Billin.gs  heirs,  and 
it  is  believed  that  word  will  be  received 
by  August  1.  laying  the  matter  formally 
before  the  city  council.  The  matter  of 
a  park  on  the  St.  Louis  river  is  con- 
siuered  most  favorably  by  the  rank  and 
file  of  Superiorites.  the  adaptibility  and 
beauty  of  the  location  being  without 
question  the  best  found  for  within  many 
miles  of  that  city. 

"It  is  believed  that  the  council  of 
Superior  will,  when  the  transfer  is  made, 
take  immediate  steps  to  improve  the 
property  for  park  purposes. 

"This  park  site  to  Ijo  donated  by  the 
Billings  estate  is  almost  directly  op- 
posite the  sites  that  have  been  advo- 
cated for  park  purposes,  on  this  side  of 
the  river,  and  is  not  regarded  as  better 
location  for  a  park  than  can  be  had  on 
the  West  Duluth  side.  The  proposed 
sites  along  the  river  front  here  are  wood- 
ed. The  trees  are  not  very  large  yet, 
but  they  afford  some  shade  and  are 
growing.  The  l>est  possible  advantages 
are  offered  for  boating  and  bathing  and 
the  water  is  deep  enough  to  permit  the 
landing  of  ferry  boats.  With  no  other 
park  on  the  water  front,  le  believe  that 
one  on  the  St.  Louis  river,  in  this 
vicinity.  Vtould  be  one  of  the  most  popu- 
lar resorts  in  the  city.  Then,  too,  the 
desirability  of  having  picnic  parties  and 
excursions  would  be  hejghtened  by  a 
ferry  service  between  the  two  parks — if 
we  had  them— here  at  West  Duluth  and 
a(  ress   the  river  at  West   Superior.

GETS  TWO  NEW  MEN. 
Manager  Frank  Wade  of  the  hall  team 
returned  this  morning  from  a  trip  to 
.•several  northern  and  southern  Wiscon- 
sin points  in  search  of  a  pitcher  and 
a  second  baseman.  He  reports  that  his 
trip  was  productivu  of  good  lesults.  He 
says  that  he  lias  secured  two  fast  play- 
ers that  will  make  their  appearance  in 
the  Saturday  and  Sunday  games  with 
Superior.  Pitcher  Cox  is  now  in  the 
southern  part  of  the  state  closing  up 
the  deal  for  Mr.  Wade,  and  the  new 
players  are  expected  here  by  Friday 
night.  Mr.  Wade  witnessed  the  games 
between  Superior  and  Bayfield  and  says 
that  Cox.  who  pitched  for  Bayfield  when 
the  latter  won  Monday's  game,  made 
the  hit  that  brought  in  the  winning  run. 
Both  Cox  and  Warner,  who  also  played, 
were  given  a  very  enthusiastic  reception 
by   the  Bayfieldites. 

A  SHIPMENT  OF  BIRDS. 

One  of  the  interesting  sights  at  West 
Duluth  yesterday,  was  the  arrival  of  a 
consignment  of  birds  for  William  Wells, 
who  keeps  a  bird  store  at  the  corner  of 
Ramsey  and  Fift.v-second  avenue  West. 
The  birds  were  shipped  from  eastern  and 
southern  points,  many  of  them  being 
choice  specimens  and  only  obtainable 
at  certain  seasons  of  the  year.  In  the 
consignment  yesterday  were  blue  bunt- 
ings, nonpareils,  goldfinches,  mocking 
birds.  Virginia  nightingales,  Harz  Ger- 
man canarys.  linnit  canarys.  bullfinches. 
American  robins.  Cuban  parrots.  Mexi- 
can parrots  and  Australian  parquet.^. 
Mr.  Wells  also  received  a  lot  of  gold  fish. 

DRIVING  ASSOCIATION  MEIKTING. 
A  meeting  of  the  horsemen  of  West 
Duluth  for  the  purpose  of  forming  a 
driving  association  was  scheduled  yes- 
terday afternoon,  but  owing  to  the  sick- 
nessof  a  number  of  the  gentlemen  inter- 
ested the  meeting  was  postponed.  Mucr 
interest  is  taken  in  the  proposed  or- 
ganization and  it  is  said  that  its  success 
is  assured.  According  to  present  ar- 
rangements there  will  be  another 
matinee  at  the  driving  park  Friday 
afternoon. 


WEST  DULTTH  BRIEFS. 

It  was  stated  in  yesterday's  Herald 
that  the  marria.ge  ceremony  of  Miss 
Maud  Laurine  and  Charles  St.  Peter  w  as 
performed  by  Father  Feehely.  This 
was  an  error,  as  Rev.  Jean  Grandchamp, 
of  the  St.  Jean  Baptist  church  married 
the  yoimg  couple. 

During  the  past  few  days  there  has 
been  a  sort  of  epidemic  in  West  Duluth 
that  has  caused  the  quite  serious  illness 
of  a  number  «»r  the  citizens  here.  Those 
affected  were  taken  with  severe  cramps 
and  in  .sOme  cases  medical  aid  was  very 
imperative.  The  physicians  lay  it  to  the 
green  stuff  now  on  the  market  and  are 
advising  moderations  in  the  eating  of 
the   same. 

Every  meat  market  in  West  Duluth 
was  closed  today,  the  butchers  being 
away  on  the  annual  picnic  at  Fond  dii 
Lac.  West  Duluth  contributed  h»^r 
quota  of  the  crowd  that  attended,  the 
greater  part  preferring  to  go  up  to  the 
picnic  grounds  in  the  steamer  Mary 
Mann,  rather  than  ride  on  the  cars. 

John  Sullivan  of  this  end  of  the  city 
was  a  winner  of  first  prize  in  the  shot 
putting  contest  at  the  Hibernian  picnic 
at  O-at-ka  beach  yesterday  afternoon. 
Mr.  Sullivan  easily  defeated  all  com- 
petitors. 

J.  A.  Flliatrault  is  breaking  for  driv- 
ing purposes,  a  bronco,  recently  pur- 
chased by  Dr.  Graham.  While  the 
animal  has  a  seemingly  go(Xl  disposition, 
it  is  iKdiced  t'nat  it  occasionally  indulges 
III  the  erratic  movements  so  character- 
istic ol"  the  breed. 

Herbert  LoVidy.  Cecil  Mosher.  Harry 
and  C>le  Johnson,  the  four  West  Duluth 
b<iys  charger!  with  breaking  into  and 
robbing  a  candy  store,  have  been  re- 
leased from  custody  on  the  payment  of 
$2.50.  A  settlement  has  been  effected 
between  the  boys  and  the  proprietor  of 
the  store. 

The  families  of  Charles  lotis.  Orville 
Fisher  and  Walter  Green  have  returned 
irom  a  week's  outin.g  at  Pike  lake.  A 
splendid  time  with  plenty  of  fish  is  re- 
ported. 

Reginald  Graham  who  has  been  quite 
sick  for  several   days   is   improving. 

.o.  Olson,  of  Minneapolis,  formerly  in 
the  jewelry  business  here,  is  vl.siting 
friends  for  a  few   days. 

Mrs.  Ed  Simons  left  last  night  for  a 
visit  with  relatives  at  Cloquet. 

Mr.  and  Mrs.  O'Donnell  of  Cloquet 
were  in  West  Duluth  yesterday,  visiting 
friends. 

Emil  Herzberg  has  returned  to  his 
home  at  Mt.  Carmel.  Pa.,  after  a  two 
weeks'  visit  v.it'n  the  family  of  A.  J.

REAR  ADMIRAL  PHILTP. 
The  real  Rear  Admiral  Philip,  who  died 
at   his   post   In   the    Rrooklyn    navy   yard, 
shone    forth    characteristically,    alihougii 

unconsciously.  i:i  two  fir  three  of  the  fa- 
vorite stories  ht  was  wont  to  tell  with 
great  animation,  lie  had  :i  choice  collec- 
tion of  lliese,  drawn  froai  his  long  experi- 
ence in  the  niiv.v.  but  the  one  at  which  he 
laughed  most  l»eartil.\  in  the  telling  was 
his  deseripiioii  of  how  he  passed  ti^e  tot 
on  becoming  a  rear  admiral  before  a 
board  composed  of  his  superiors  as  exam- 
iners, says  tlie  Brooklyn  Kagle.  Two  of 
the  body  were  Ptear  Admirals  Schley  and 
Samiwon.  classmates  of  his  at  Annapolis, 
who  were  .iust  a  lew  jioiiits  liefure  liim  in 
the  line   of  promotion. 

The  admiral  always  told  the  story  with 
fretpieni  additions  of  the  jieciiiiar  half- 
chuckle,  half-snort  with  which  he  wa.s 
Wont  to  punc'uate  his  sentencs.  He  told 
how  he  was  stimmoned  te  Washington  and 
on  going  into  the  boards  roofi  found  these 
two  of  his  old-time  chums  ready  to  "sit  on 
him."  as  the  naval  phraseology  has  it. 
Rear  Admiral  St  hley  addressed  liim  ii'i  t.e 
mock  .■^olenin  ton-^  <d"  .i  lord  high  in<piis- 
itor;  "Are  you  fully  prei)ared  to  underg'i 
this  test?"  Then,  still  in  the  funereal 
voice:  "The  lesponsiblllties  of  this  board 
Is  a  great  one  and  it  docs  not  care  to  he- 
gln.  unless— but,  are  yen  readi,  Caot. 
Philip?"  "Re£-dy?"  answeru'd  Csfpt.  Philip. 
•What  you  talking  abcut  Schley?"  (He 
always  omltt«-d  the  verb  In  a  direct  ques- 
tion.) "Are  ycu  awr^re  that  jou  arc  ad- 
dressing a  superior  ofHcer.  Capt.  Philip?  " 
"Umph!"  came  the  gutteral  reply.  "Su- 
perior fiddlesticks!  You've  beaten  me,  but 
I've  caught  up  with  you  now."  Thon  t»ie 
mock  solemn  tone  was  dropptd.  there  was 
a  shaking  cf  hands  and  Capt.  Philip's  ex- 
amination for  rejir  admiral  was  over, 
with  the  exceptions  cf  u  few  tjuestions. 
merely  as  a  ffirmality.

Duluth 
wheat  market  opened  at  a  slight  advance 
this  morning,   due   to   a  little   buying   by       CHICAGO  OATS,  CORN  AND  PORK 


scalpers  at  Chicago,  but  the  undertone  j 
was  weak  and  in  the  absence  of  any  sup- 
port and  owing  to  liquidation  by  longs 
the  price  took  a  drop.  The  situation  is  not 
very  favorable  for  those  bullishly  inclined 
and  it  will  be  difficult  to  rally  the  market 
with  winter  wheat  moving  freely  and 
grading  well.  Brudslreet's  has  repeated 
its  original  aujCKestion  that  the  wheat 
crt-p  promise  this  ye.ir  is  for  about  540.-

tiie  day  there  was  a  very  good  cash  de- 
rr'and  and  this,  together  v.-ith  light  counu.i.

Kwang  Su  Writes  an  Appeal- 
ing Letter  to  ths  French 
President. 

Paris.  July  25.— The  emperor  of  China 
has  sent  to  President  Loubct  the  follow- 
ing letter,  iran.smltte.l  by  telegraph  by 
the  governor  of  Shan  Tung.  July  19: 

•China  has  for  several  years  been  link«  d 
in  frien'lshii>  with  your  honorable  country. 
All  aft  airs  concerning  our  relations  on 
the  frontiers  of  Quanj:  Si  and  Funai:  have 
been  discussed  and  .■settled  by  the  way  of 
conciliation.  There  exists  no  grle\ances 
between  us.  Recently  tlie  population  and 
Christians  found  themselves  in  hostility, 
and  rebellious  j)ersons  have  profited  'i.>y 
the  opportuni:v  to  Indulge  in  depredations, 
with  the  result  that  foreign  nations  h.ive 
suspected  the  court  of  showing  partiality 
towards  the  people  and  of  jealousy  to- 
wards the-  Christians.  Subsequentiy.  tnc 
attack  upon  and  taking  of  the  forts  at 
Taku  took  place,  after  which  military  ac- 
tion and  misfortunes  eiisueil.  rendering 
the  situation  still  more  complicated  and 
dangerous.  .    ^  ...        1 

••As  we  think  that  in  the  international 
relations  of  China  with  other  governments 
vour  honorable  nation  has  most  cordial 
relations  with  China,  and  as  China  is  lo- 
dav  pressed  bv  ciicumstances  up  to  the 
point  of  drawing  upon  herself  universal 
wrath,  in  order  to  arrange  these  diflicu'.- 
ties  and  to  resolve  these  complications, 
we  think  it  possible  that  it  is  solely  upon 
vour  honorable  country  that  we  may 
count.  T'.nrefore.  opening  our  h-art  to 
you  in  all  sincerity,  we  demonstrate  to 
vou  our  intimate  si-ntiments  and  w;e  ad- 
dress vou  this  letter  in  the  sole  hope  that 
von  wHl  fhid.  Mr.  President  of  the  repub- 
lic, means  of  arranging  matters,  and  will 
take  the  initiative  to  transform  the  pres- 
ent situation. 

•'We  beg  vou  nt  the  same  time,  to  have 
tlse  goodness  to  address  us  a  kind  re- 
sponse, which  we  cannot  help  but  await 
with  extreme  anxi-  ty.  Signed  the  twenty- 
third  dav  of  the  sixth  moon  of  the  twen- 
tv-s:xthyear  (July  19.  19'JO). 

COIWrNTHQ^E. 


New  York.  July  25.— With  one  or  two  ex- 
ceptions, prices  of  stocks  were  lower  in  the 
opening  dealings,  the  declines  ranging 
from  a  small  fraction  up  to  about  a  point 
in  Brooklyn  Transit,  Sugar  and  Tennessee 
Coal.  Lower  prices  from  London  and  a 
continuance  of  yesterday's  realizing  move- 
ment were  the  causes  of  the  decline.  The 
market  was  quite  active.  After  the  open- 
ing, American  Tobacco  was  marked  up 
2'i  and  Sugar  and  Brooklyn  Transit  a 
point,  when  realization  commenced  in  the 
leaders.  This  cancelled  the  rise  in  Sug  ir 
and  Brook. yn  Transit,  railroad  stocks 
drifted  downward  and  there  was  pro- 
nounced heaviness  in  tlie  steel  group. 
Pressure  against  the  market  relaxed  and 
there  was  a  slow  recovery.  The  rally, 
however,  did  not  reach  large  proportions 
outside  of  Sugar,  Brooklyn  Transit  and 
the  Tobaccos,  which  rf)se  a  point  or  bet- 
ter. Business  was  .small  in  bonds  and  the 
market  lacked  decisive  tone. 

Metropolitan  advanced  further  to  158. 
Some  of  the  steel  stocks  hardened  and 
Pittsburg.  Cincinnati,  Chicago  &  St.  Louis 
fell  4  points.  Otherwise  the  market  re- 
mained sluggish  and  dull  during  the  last 
hour.  The  closing  was  about  steady  with 
fractional   net   losses. 


Eight  Big  Steamers  of  Hanna 

Fleet  Reported  Sold  to 

Rockefeller. 

Detroit.  Mich.,  July  25.— From  what 
.seems  an  authentii?  source  the  Journal  is 
informed  that  a  d<»al  is  on,  if  it  has  not 
been  actually  consummated,  between 
the  Hanna  and  Rockefeller  interests  for 
the  sale  of  the  eigit  big  steamers  of  the 
Hanna  fleets,  kno  vn  as  the  Menominee 
and  the  Mitchell  lines,  Lo  the  Rockefel- 
lers. The  steamers  transferred,  or  to  be 
transferred,  are  the  Grecian,  Saxort, 
Roman,  German,  Briton,  Corsica,  Cam- 
bria. Corunna  and  Coralia,  and  their 
average  carrying  capacity  is  3500  ton.? 
gross.  It  has  be?n  known  that  Mr. 
Hanna  wanted  to  get  out  of  the  vessel 
business.  Other  steamers  owned  by  Mr. 
Hanna  were  sold  last  year  to  the  Car- 
negie people.  The  sale  of  the  two  fleets, 
if  the  report  be  true,  indicates  more 
than  a  mere  disposal  of  property.  For  a 
long  time  Dan  Hanna.  the  son  of  the 
senator,  has  been  openly  opposed  to  John 
D.  Rockefeller  in  the  array  of  the  sieol 
element  against  the  Rockefeller  vessel 
interests,  and  if  the  sale  has  Ije^n  con- 
summated the  probability  is  tliat  it  indi- 
cates an  actual  settlement  between  the 
two  elements  or  the  arrangement  of  a 
truce  which,  coupled  with  other  recent 
events,  indicates  that  the  big  fellows 
have  decided  to  stop  fighting  and  work 
for  mutual  financial  interests.

i  lion  as  it  was  at  .8Sc.  We  can  fiml  nothing 
it"  alter  our  views  r-ganling  the  v.ilue  of 
this  wh»-at  and  with  the  a<l<litional  incen- 
tives which  have  developt-d  yesterday  and 
lodav  in  the  nature  of  cash  busine.ss  to- 
ge-hf-r  with  the  steady  decline  already  ex- 
perienced and  the  undoubtedly  short  selling 
ir.cident  to  such,  make  us  believe  mote 
firmly  than  ever  that  wheat  should  b- 
bought  and  although  it  may  require  som- 
p.itience.  the  result  t.)  us  seems  undoubt- 
ed that  good  mon- v  will  be  realized. 

There  was  further  licjuidation  in  cf>rn. 
costing  the  price  another  cent  a  bus.  The 
country  offerings  showed  no  increase.  The 
government  report  was  not  entirely  tavor- 
a:>lc.  talking  considerable  damage  to  th? 
growing  crop.  Corn  market  se^ms  to  have 
lost  th'  ma.)orlty  of  its  friends,  owing  t-^ 
the  pro.'ipect  of  improved  conditions  from 
rains.  The  excellent  demand  for  ca.sh 
corn  is  reflected  In  a  relative  difference  be- 
tween August  and  September  options.  Cash 
corn  c.l.f.  to  Buffalo  is  slling  at  '%z  over 
the  September  prict. While  sp.culatlve  s:n- 
timent  remain.^:  In  the  condition  It  Is.  it 
may  be  difficult  to  rouct  bull  enthusiasm 
to  a  sufficient  degree  to  mak;-  anything 
sensational  in  the  way  of  a'lvancos  jTOba- 
Ue,  but  with  cor.i  Intrinsically  worth  mere- 
mor^-^  m.^n-.y  it  seems  to  us  logical  ta  lock 
for  at  least  a  general  re:o.'ery  after  such 
a  tteady  d.=-clinfc  as  has  teen  expcriinctl 
and  w;  beli^rVt  firmly  in  th.-  b-.U'ing  sido 
on  all  such  d.\ys  at' this,  feeling  that  ep^rcu- 
lotive  legitimate  reaBOtu  warrant  such 
purchases.

The  Third  infantry  will  break  camp  jl

Sunday  morning.  Private  Lewi.^  Au.<=- 
tln  of  G  comnany  if  tied  with  Musician 
Price  of  B  cmpany  for  being  the  best 
phot  in  th"  regiment.  On  the  200-y.ird 
ran^e  both  men  have  ."scored  ■'lO  nut  or  a 
rosgible  50.  and  there  is  sf»me  f.ilk  of  a 
icmT>ctitive  malOi  between  the  iv.  li  d 
decide  Oiie  regimental  championship. 

Ccmcany  C  has  had  the  nonor  of  as- 
signing more  orderlies  than  any  oUier 
company  in  camp.  The.se  orderlies  ar.' 
picked  by  the  adjutant  at  guard  mount, 
ar.'l  are  selected  for  general  good  appear- 
ance and  neatne-ss  in  dress  and  eauv- 
mcnt. 

The  small  detail  fr^m  Company  A  cre- 
.'.ted  nuite  a  sensation  in  cami<  for  the 
first  few  davs.  The  camyany  on  i-  - 
turning  from  Koochiching  found  that 
UK.st  of  the  old  men  could  not  remain 
away  from  business  any  longer,  and 
tf.M-st-  accimpanying  the  regiment  to 
camp  were  largely  recruit.'^  that  had  not 
been  on  the  Koochiching  trip.  The 
r!th3r  companies  from  down  the  sta^e 
had  heard  of  Company  A.  the  Indian 
fighting  company,  and  for  days  they 
?to.-)d  about  the  company  street  and 
srazed  in  rant  admiration  at  \\hat  t&iev 
thought  was"a  company  composed  exclu- 
sivcly  of  veteran  sons  of  frontier  war- 
fare.' As  a  usual  thing  a  recruit's  life 
at  the  first  camp  is  not  a  lotus-eatins 
dream  of  idle  jsy.  and  the  men  o'der  in 
the  service  take  considerable  delignt 
giving  the  "rookies"  plenty  of  advice  on 
i"^e  duties  of  a  soldier.  They  al;:o  like 
to  stand  around  and  talk  in  a  suoenor

Want  tho  Gravel  Loft. 

A  small  narrow  guage  track  laid  down 
the  lake  shore  by  the  contractors  for  the 
new  government  pier  has  occasioned 
?ome  alarm  on  the  part  of  a  number  of 
Park  Point  property  owners.  A  meeting- 
was  held  last  evening,  at  which  the  sit- 
uation was  discu-ssed  The  nr:nerty 
owners  fear  that  if  the  contractors  take 
anr  travel  from  the  boach  it  will  en- 
danger adjoining  property,  as  the  lake 
currents  are  very  strong  at  that  point. 


THE  FREIGHT  SITUATION. 

Cleveland.  July  25.— (Special  to  Tho 
Herald.)— Coal  carriers  for  Lake  Su- 
perior are  not  as  plentiful  as  for  Lake 
Michigan,  and  it  is  possible,  therefore, 
that  there  will  not  t>e  any  -further 
change  in  freight  rates  during  the  pres- 
ent v.eek. 

Chicago.  July  25  —(Special  to  The  Her- 
ald.)— Grain  rates  were  maintained  at 
2  cents  today. 

THE  SMITH'S  DAMAGE. 
Cleveland,  July  25.— (Special  to  The 
Herald.)— The  burned  steamer  Eki  Smith 
No.  2  is  not  yet  unloaded,  and  it  is  im- 
possible to  even  -stimate  the  extent  of 
her  damages,  but  they  are  of  a  kind  that 
may  be  readily  repaired,  and  the  vesstl 
will  he  in  commission  again  shortly.

CAUSE  OF  THE  RiMm 

Duo  to  a  Small  Sale  There- 
Some  Large  Sales 
Just  lade. 


The  leport  has  been  current  among 
lumbermen  for  the  past  two  days  that 
the  Ashland  men  were  cutting  prices  in 
lumber  and  were  making  sales  at  much 
less  than  what  ha.s  been  the  ruling 
price  asked  by  the  lumbermen  of  the 
Lake  Superior  district.  The  report 
caused  much  concern  here  for  a  break 
among  the  lumbermen  thei-e  could  not 
fail  to  cause  a  slump  all  along  the  line. 
An  investisation  indicates,  however, 
that  the  report  Is  without  foundation, 
and  grew  out  of  a  single  sale  mado 
there  from  the  Latimer  stock.  He  sold 
a  lot  of  160.000  feet  of  what  were  nomin- 
ally No.  4  boards  at  (10  a  thousand  feet. 
The  ruling  price  is  from  $11  to  $12  a 
tftiousand.  Lumbermen  from  Duluth  whu 
examined   the  stock  claim   that  It   is  a 

j  very  low  grade  of  No.  4  boards,  in  fact. 

1  reaily  not  entitled  to  that  grade.  It  was 
n;erelv  an  odd  lot  that  the  Ovvner  wan 
anxious  to  get  rid  of  and  took  that  price. 
A  Duluth  man  who  examined  them  says 
that  $10  was  a  good  price  for  them. 

The  Edward  Hines  Lumber  company 
has  just  closed  a  sale  of  from  8.000.000  to 
9,000.000  feet  cf  log  run  stock  to  Robin- 
son Brothers,  of  Tonawanda.  The  lum- 
ber is  at  Ashland.  Mr.  Roliertson  has 
been  here  for  several  day.s.  and  appa- 
rently did  not  intend  to  buy.  for  he  let 
his  boats  pass  by  Ashland  and  come  to 
Duluth.  b.ut  he  changed  his  mind  later, 
and  took  the  Ixiards  and  sent  his  boats 
back  to  AFhlanc^. 

Another  sale  of  4.000,000  is  said  to  have 
been  made  by  the  Millen  Arnold  com- 
rany  to  Nelson  Morris,  of  Chicago.  Tht? 
purchase  was  made  by  E.  J.  Alsey- 
bfooke.  of  that  city,  who  has  iieen  here 
for  .>;everal  days.

WANT  PROTECTION. 
Milwaukee.  Jul'-  25.— The  National  Pho- 
tographers' as.sociation  adopted  a  resolu- 
tion asking  congress  to  amend  the  copy- 
right statutes  so  as  to  propertly  protect 
all  copvrighted  photographs.  This  was 
done  in"  view  of  the  recejit  ruling  of  the 
United  States  court  on  the  "found  in 
possession"  clau.se  of  the  copyrighted  stat- 
utes, which  makjs  It  impossible  for  the 
photographer  to  protect  his  property 
against  willful  Infringers  of  his  legal 
rights.

Washington,  July  2.").— A  cable  report 
received  lixlay  at  the  war  defiartment 
from  Lieut.  Co.ilidge.  in  command  of  the 
Ninth  infantry  since  the  death  of  Col. 

Liscum.  indicates  that  the  temporary

not  been  put  in  force  yet.  The  reoorl. 
which  brierty  c>overs  the  operations  of

CHICAGO  TRAGEDY. 
Chicago.  July  25.— Mr.s.  Augusta  Hcr- 
genthal.  a  widow,  living  at  5.>l  West 
Ohio  stre<;t.  wa.s  totiay  shot  and  killt-d

CHINESE  HOrSES. 

In  the  fotir  cities  which  make  up  the 
capital,  and  particularly  in  the  imperial 
city,  live  most  of  the  leading  and  opulent 
class,  and.  therefore,  the  houses  are  of  a 
more  important  and  ?olld  appearance  trian 
is  the  rule  plsewhrre.  says  the  London 
brick  walls,  with  a  sin- 
gle stonp  entrance,  surrounded  a  mult'- 
lude  of  courts,  flank<^"l  by  the  roofed 
dwelling  rooms.  It  is  a  curiou;-  and  uni- 
vers.Tl  custom  among  the  Chinese  to  put 
up  immediately  facing  the  outer  door  a 
stone  or  brick  screen,  bearing  tab.ets  r;r 
painted  scrolls,  inscribed  with  the  names 
of  ancestors  or  classical  texts.  The  ob- 
ject, according  to  time-honored  supersti- 
tion. Is  to  ward  off  evil  spirits,  for  fhe 
demon  on  entering  knocks  his  head 
against  the  obstacle,  and.  being  devoid  of 
all  sense  but  an  elemantary  hatred  cf 
mankind,  is  repulsed  and  goes  away  sor- 
rowful. Why  the  aforesaid  demon  should 
li.ive  the  cleverness  t4i  turn  in  at  the  gtito 
yet  not  suftleient  to  whf  el  round  the  screen 
Is  difTicult  for  the  uninitiated  to  under- 
staiul. 

There  is  no  attemfit  at  ostentation,  or 
even  of  decent  comfort.  alMiUt  tJiese  dw<  I- 
ling  places.  Within  they  are  mere  ram- 
shackle butigalows.  with  stone-flagged 
floors  and  paper  windows  fantastically  cut 
up  by  wooden  partitions,  and  paperel  with 
out  taste  or  cleanliness.  The  fur- 
nlf  re  is  pol'sn-'l  w</0.1  j>».ad.\  In  the  sitlf. 
square  style  that  I?  no:  unfi.  miliar  Orna-

manship. 


WAS    DIFFERENT. 

A  man  was  on  trial  recently  In  a  court 
of  this  city  for  grand  larceny  and  conspir- 
acy, says  file  New  York  Mall  and  Ex- 
press. One  day  of  thf  trial  was  rainy.  A 
reporter  assigiied  to  the  trial  laid  his  um- 
brella against  the  jury  box.  but  it  'was  in 
the  way  there  and  a  court  offleer  picked  It 
up. 

•I'll  put  It  In  the  .iury  box,  it  ought  to  be 
safe  there,  if  anywhere,"  he  said. 

When  tho  court  adjourned  for  the  day 
the  reporter  looked  In  the  jury  box  for  his 
umbrella,  but  it  was  nut  there.  He  sought 
out  the  court  officer,  who  also  made  a 
careful,  hut  unsuccessful  search. 

••One  of  them  jurymen's  took  It;  no  one 
else,"  remarked  the  officer.  ••An"  they're 
trvln'  that  man  for  larceny!" 

The  reporter's  'jmbrc-.la  was  never  re- 
turned, hu-  "-  ^  '- -i  — •  —  f  found  ffuH- 
Ty,-  and  ser  irfe'  Itopris- 

rmment.  E'-'-l^---  —  -;i..:i-^'n  who  had 
the  umbrella  tocfk  the  proverbial  v1*w  of  it 
nnd  did  not  think  the  Illegal  poesesslon  of 
another's  property  disqualified  him  from 
passing  Judgment  In  a  case  of  thett.

ARE  eETTJNG^  SCARCE. 

Mums  Not  Coining  In  as  Fast  as 
aFow  DaysAfo. 

Plums  are  very  scarce  in  the  mark-t. 
ihe  supply  being,  in  fact,  practically  nil 
yesterday.  The  crop  is  all  right,  but 
relatively  high  prices  in  the  Eastern 
markets  have  attracted  the  fruit  in 
that  direction.  The  pendulum  will  so.n 
swlns  back  and  he  fruit  will,  within  a 
fortnight,  be  found  on  the  market  in 
good  quantity.  Washingtons  and  Ore- 
gons  are  quoted  at  75fi80  cents,  and  Cali- 
fornia.s,   in  crates,  around  $1.10(fil.2.".. 

Peaches  were  weaker  in  tone.  Califjr- 
nias  moving  slowly  at  70(&80  cent.s,  but 
Texans  moved  freely  at  60$i70  cents. 

The  lemon  crop  in  Italy  is  short  and 
the  California  fruit  has  gone  up  on  that 
account.  It  was  firm  yesterday  at  $4.7.i 
'&:..00,  and  further  advances  are  ex- 
i^ected. 

The  blueberry  crop  is  short  and  th^ 
fruit  is  roosting  high,  $1.40'Rl.fiO  for  1«- 
quart  crates  being  asked.  There  is  little 
Drosr'ect  of  their  being  any  lower. 

Blackberries  are  alsi  scarcer  than  or- 
dinary, but  they  have  come  down  a  little 
in  t--e  past  few  days  on  increased  re- 
oeir>ts  and  are  quoted  at  ?1.75. 

Butter  is  coming  in  in  larger  quanti- 
ties than  has  been  the  case  for  snme 
time  past.  It  was  quoted  at  20  cents  in 
60-Dound  tubs. 

Potatoes  stood  around  4.'i  cents  anci

A  YOUNe 


FORGER 


Young  Man  Gathered  In  For 

Trying  to  Swindle  tlie 

Bowery. 

GAU6HT  JUST  A  FEW 


Ha  Managed  to  Casli  Four 
of  tlie  Bits  of  Spur- 
ious Paper. 


Nervously  racing  back  and  forth  bv^- 
hind  the  bars  at  police  headquarters, 
there  is  a  bright-looking  young  man, 
whjm  the  officers  claim  is  a  rash  and 
almost  a  rank  failure  as  a:  'orjjer.  His 
name  is  John  H.  Hoffman.  The  charges 
against  him  relate  the  sad  fact  that  he 
created  a  flurry  of  excitement  and  near- 
ly cornered  the  Bowery  money  market 
with  four  little  slips  of  worthless  green 
rarer,  which  netted  him  ?74. 

Three  of  the  checks  were  cashed  in 
last  Saturday  and  one  a  few  days  ure- 
vious.  The  first  was  at  Joseph's  clothing 
sure.  It  purported  to  have  been  drawn 
by  Henry  C.  Nelson,  of  the  West  End, 
and  was  endorsed  by  James  E.  Daniels. 
It  was  drawn  for  $18.53  on  the  Mer- 
chants* bank,  and  that  institution 
oromptly  returned  it  with  certain  red 
marks  on  the  back,  indicating  that  the 
uartv  in  Question  had  no  money  on  ut - 
.iiosit.  Mr.  Nelson  was  then  looked  up 
and  he  said  he  had  made  nj  such  cSieck.s. 
but  the  authorities  were  unable  to  locate 
the  forger.  Hoffman  became  a  little 
bolder  and  rushed  in  three  checks  on 
the  Bowery  Saturday.  Joseph  Oreckov- 
sky.  of  522  West  Superior  street,  cashed 
the  second  check;  August  Johnson,  lihe 
.saloon  keeper  at  528  West  Superior  street, 
to^!k  in  the  third,  and  Neusbaum  &. 
Schillin,  at  5::i  West  Superior  street, 
cashed  the  third.  All  were  for  $18.50. 
Frank  Schillin,  of  the  last  named  flrn., 
started  out  in  search  of  Hoffman  yes- 
terda;-  afternoon  and  found  him  walk- 
ing along  the  street.  He  called  Serst. 
Thompson's  attention  to  the  fact  and  tiie 
young  man  was  placed  under  arrest.  In 
rx  lice  court  this  mornins  he  entered  :i 
plea  of  not  guilty. 

Hoffman  is  very  well  known  down  in 
the  vicinity  of  Garfield  avenue,  where  li- 
resides  with  a  cousin.  He  says  he  is  2G 
years  of  age.  but  loiks  much  younger. 

The  charge  of  stealing  cop.oer  wiri:. 
placed  against  Frank  Ives  by  the  Com- 
mercial I..ight  and  Power  company,  wa^ 
dismissed  this  morning,  it  being  oroven 
that  tfiie  wire  was  given  m  Mr.  Ives  by 
an  employe  of  the  electric  com]>any,  and 
t^at  he  did  not  steal  it. 

Robert  Scarlet,  a  home.steader  resid- 
ine  east  of  Lester  river,  was  In  court 
(barged  with  as.saulting  .i  num'o-r  nf 
Polanders.  Those  assaulted  were  makin,; 
hay  on  Mr.  Sc-arlet's  property  while  the 
sun  was  shining,  and  Scarlet  interfered. 

Jonn  Lindsay.  John  Olson  and  John 
Akin  were  each  given  ten  days  for 
drunkenness.

Rtd  Rivar  Valley   Farmers  Rtport 
Sliortaga  of  Harvesters. 

William  Dalrymple  today  received  a  1<  t- 
t.  r  from  his  father.  Oliver  Dalrymple. 
who  has  several  large  farms  In  North 
Dakota  and  he  said  in  this  Jctter  that 
harvesters  are  nt-eded  at  once  out  tlieri'. 
Harvesting  will  be  general  In  the  Re<l 
Kiver  valley  by  tomorrow,  aceor.llng  to  the 
letter  and  the  need  of  men  is  being  n  li 
The  railroads  are  not  giving  the  usua- 
harvest  rate  and  he  thinks  this  may  be 
resj)onsible  f(>i  the  scarcity.  The  farm 
at  Ca.>5selton  v.ill  haVc  a  good  yield  of 
wheat  on  portions  of  the  land  for  tlurt- 
is  a  strij)  of  four  or  tive  miles  around  that 
place  which  caught  some  rain.  It  may  run 
ten  or  twelve  bushels  tn  tlu-  acre.  At  th.' 
Hlllsboro  farm  the  effect  of  the  drouth  is 
severe  and  a  jield  of  not  to  exceed  four 
bushels  to  the  acre  is  all  that  is  expected.

Parl[  Point  Bravol. 

To  the  Editor  of  The  Herald: 

I  notice  with  considerable  apprehen- 
sion the  preparations  being  made  by  the 
Butler-Ryan  contracting  firm  to  take 
several  hundred  yards  of  gravel  off  the 
point.  They  are  putting  a  track  and 
temporary  dock  on  Vine  street  by  per- 
mit of  the  board  of  public  works.  It 
seems  to  mo  that  the  taking  of  gravel 
or  sand  off  the  point  should  be  pro- 
hibited. Last  summer  King  &  Steele 
made  a  hole  about  100  feet  square  and 
eight  feet  deep  near  Olive  street.  Should 
a  storm  come  up  such  as  we  had  three 
years  since,  a  channel  through  the  point 
is  likely  to  be  the  consequence.  The 
adjoining  property  certainly  will  be 
affected  as  this  hole,  if  it  fills  up  as  ii 
i.s  claimed  it  will,  must  come  from  other 
lots.  Not  many  years  since  people  from 
Superior  were  arrested  and  fined  for 
taking  a  few  sleigh-loads  of  sand  off 
the  point.  These  people  propose  to  take 
it  away  by  the  scow  load.  I  would  like 
to  call  the  attention  of  property  holders 
and  eity  and  government  authorities  to 
this  fact.  J.    MEARS.

The  annual  picnic  of  the  IJuUliers'  u:don

there  is  i  large  crowd  in  attendance.  The 
weather  is  all  that  the  butchers  hav 
prayed  for  the  past  two  weeks.  The  Du- 
luth City  band  accompanied  the  picnick- 
ers this  morning.  During  the  day  there  is 
to  be  a  line  program  of  games,  wlfn  dan- 
cing nnd  all  kinds  of  amusements  for

ber, near  the  Rainy  Lake  river.  ,<n\ 
wire  bound  over  to  the  term  of  court 
which  will  meet  here  in  October.  Today 
they  were  released  upon  their  own  ree- 
ognizance.  They  agree  to  return  imme- 
diately to  their  families  and  remove 
them  and  their  l)elongings  at  once  from 
the  land  until  such  time  as  they  are  en- 
titled to  .settle  upon  them.  They  also 
agiee  to  report  at  the  October  term  of 
the  court  if  notified  to  do  so  by  the 
T'nited  States  marshal.  The  lands  on 
which  ihcy  were  are  ceded  lands,  and 
are  not  yet  open  for  settlement.

will  new  come  to  Two  Harbors  and  take 
up  the  work  there  on  the  breakwaters 
for  which  they  have  the  contract.  This

Arrival  of  Sour  Cherries. 

An  unexpected  reappearance  of  some 
line  sour  cherries  occurred  on  Michigan 
street  today.  The  fruit  Is  about  out  of 
.season,  but  that  received  today  is  extra 
choice.  Thomas  Thompson,  the  com- 
mission firm,  expects  to  receive  one 
more  lot  tomorrow,  and  then  It  will  be 
good-bye  to  .sour  cherries  for  the  sea- 
son. Those  having  about  given  up  the 
chance  to  get  any  more  of  this  fruit  this 
season  will  be  glad  to  hear  that  grocery- 
men  can  still  fill  their  orders. 


VIOLATIONS, 

Ministers  of  Superior  Per- 
forming Marriages  Witiiout 
tlie  Proper  Riglit. 

The  practice  of  Superior  people  of  get- 
tmg  marriage  licenses  in  this  county  is 
leading  to  some  complications,  and  some 
of  them  might  prove  serious.  One  case 
has  come  to  the  notice  of  the  county  au- 
thorities where  a  Superior  minister  mc.r- 
ried  a  Superior  couple  who  procurctl  their 
license  on  this  side,  and  while  it  takes  a 
good  deal  of  irreguiarity  to  make  a  mai- 
riage  contract  v<)id,  this  is  one  decidedly 
irregidar.  The  law  requires  that  clergy- 
men must  have  their  certificates  of  oruin- 
ation  on  tile  in  this  stale  before  they  can 
perform  marriage  ceremonies.  in  tliis 
case  the  Superior  clergyman  who  per- 
formed the  ceremony  has  his  certificate 
recorded  in  Superior,'  and  he  has  none  re- 
corded in  this  state.  The  couple  came  over 
and  got  their  license  here,  and  brought 
the  minister  with  them  ti>  perform  the 
ceremony.  When  he  sent  in  the  report  of 
the  wedding  to  the  Si.  Louis  county  clerk 
it  appeared  that  he  had  no  cerlilicate  re- 
corded in  this  state,  and  therefore  he  had 
no  authority  to  perform  a  marriage  cere- 
mony in  thus  state.  Word  was  sent  to  him 
of  the  fact  that  the  proceeding  was  not 
right,  and  he  was  informexl  that  the  le- 
gality of  the  marriage  was  doubtful,  to 
say  the  least. 

Another  case  reported  is  that  of  a  cou- 
ple from  Superior,  who  cam?  over  here 
to  get  their  license  and  then  went  back 
to  Superior  and  were  married.  This  case 
has  not  yet  been  traced  down,  but  it  is 
clearlv  a  violation  of  the  laws  of  both 
states,  and  while  the  marriage  might  hold, 
as  even  a  common  law  marriage  can  be 
made  to  do.  there  is  room  for  .some  doubt 
about  it.  and  doubt  in  a  case  of  that  kind 
is  not  a  very  pleasant  thing  to  contem- 
plate. 

ISlfOUNDED. 


Capt.  George  Gibson  Reports 

Himself  as  Hurt  But 

Not  Seriously. 

Capt.  George  Gibson,  of  this  city,  who  i.s 
now  doing  service  in  the  Philippines,  was 
wounded  a  few  days  ago  according  to  a 
cable  which  has  been  received  from  him. 
The  message  does  not  convey  any  particu- 
lars, however,  more  than  to  say  that  it  v.i 
not  serious.  The  cable  was  sent  to  H.  B. 
Earhart.  of  Chicago,  a  close  friend  of 
Mr.  Gibson  and  he  nolilied  the  relatives 
liere  by  wire  todav.  Capt.  Gibson  is  in 
charge  of  Company  C  of  the  Thirty-fourth 
regiment  of  Ur.lted  States  volunteers. 
He  was  the  commanding  officer  of  Com- 
pany M  in  the  Fifteenth  Minnesota  at 
the  time  of  the  Spanish-American  war. 
When  last  heard  from  on  June  5  he  wrote 
from  Gapan  and  said  that  Gen.  Funston 
had  written  him  that  he  was  entitled  t" 
call  hini.--elf  governor  general,  being  in 
charge  of  that  iirovince  in  which  he  was 
located.  At  the  time  he  wrote  he  had  ju>t 
received  orders  from  Gen.  Funston  10 
ioin  him  on  an  expedition  that  he  was 
about  to  make.  U  Is  surmised  here  that  it 
was  on  this  expedition  that  he  was  wound- 
ed. The  point  at  which  he  was  located 
when  last  heard  from  Is  eighty  miles 
from  Manilla  and  forty  miles  from  a  rail- 
road.

Day  For  Defendants. 

Yesterday  was  defendants"  day  in  Xty 
municipal  court.  Two  juries  found  in 
favor  of  the  parties  from  whom  damages 
were  .sougtit.  In  the  suit  brought  by 
George  Duren  against  Henry  Yates,  in 
which  the  plaintiff  asked  5500  dania^t:- 
because  he  alleged  thai,  th?  defendant 
maliciously  assaulted  him  with  a  hatchet 
was  decided  in  favor  of  Mr.  Yate.«. 

George  J.  Grierson  sued  Receiver 
J^uther  Mendenhall  becau.se  his  wa;;on 
and  a  street  car  had  a  collision  at  Thirty  - 
eighth  avenue  west  on  Jan.  6  last,  in 
which  Mr.  Grierson's  conveyance  was 
badly  wrecked  and  he  suffered  consider- 
able injury  himself.  He  estimated  his 
sickness,  lameness  and  mental  anguish 
on  that  account  at  $500.  The  companv 
claimed  that  Griers<)n  carelessly,  negli- 
gently, recklessly  and  imprudently 
placed  himself  on  the  tracks,  and  the

There  will  be  an  interesting  afternoon 
of  sport  at  the  grounds  of  the  Central 
Gun  club,  next  Sunday.  Shooters  from 
both  sides  of  the  hay  will  compete  for 
the  diamond  medal  now  held  by  J.  W. 
Nelson.  This  championship  badge  was 
won  by  Mr.  Nelson  from  Fulton  of 
Superior,  at  the  shoot  held  in  that  city 
two  weeks  ago.  One  of  the  events  of 
the  afternoon  will  be  a  shoot  between

rooms  of  Durkan  &  Crawford,  is  Second 
avenue  west.  The  body  will  be  interred

eral will  probably  be  very  largely  attend-

great  popularity  of  the  deceased,  espe- 
ciallv  among  the  Scandinavian  portion  of 
Duliith's  population,  of  which  he  had  for 
many  years  been  a  leading  representative.

MICHIGAN 
DEMOCRATS 

The  Detroit   Sonveniion  Is 

Their  Largest  Since  the 

Civil  War. 


MAYBURY  IS  LEADING 


Detroit  Mayor  Is  In  the  Van 

In  ihe  Gubernatorial 

Race. 


Detroit,  Mich.,  July  2.5. — According  to 
the  assertions  of  Democratic  leaders  of 
long  experience,  the  state  convention  of 
the  party  held  today  i.s  the  largest,  in 
lioint  of  number  of  delegates  present,  of 
any  Michigan  Democratic  convention 
since  the  civil  war.  A  full  represent- 
ation   is    750    delegates,    those    in    their 

seal.s  when  the  convention  was  called  to 
ortlur  at  noon  were  estimated  to  number 
nearl:-  700. 

Between  10  o'clock  and  noon  repre- 
sentatives of  the  twelve  congressional 
distiicts  held  caucuses  and  selected 
members  of  convention  committees.  No 
features  of  strife  developed  in  the 
caucuses,  and  none  of  special  import- 
ance had  made  their  appearance  when 
the  convention  opened. 

Mayor  Maybury.  of  Detroit,  was  still 
strongly  in  the  lead  for  the  nomination 
for  covernor.>^hip,  although  the  n<in-ap- 
pearance  oi'  the  mayor,  who  is  in  Boston 
on  a  business  trip,  rather  cast  a  damper 
on  any  outward  enthusiasm  for  his 
candidacy.  It  had  been  understood  for 
some  time  past  that  Mayor  Maybury 
would  not  be<'ome  a  candidate  unless  the 
nomination  is  tendered  with  practical 
unanimity. 

The  other  candidates  are  P.  J. 
Cavanaugh,  of  Paw  Paw:  Brad  Hayes, 
of  Ionia:  S.  L.  Bignail,  of  Fowlerville, 
and  Patrick  Gilkey.  of  Kalamazoo. 

No  special  fight  was  anticipated  over 
adoption  of  a  platform.  Thomas  E. 
Barkworth.  of  Jji^kson.  who  was  a 
strong  proliability  for  chairman  of  the 
re.solutions  committee,  had  prepared  a 
draft,  which,  it  is  understood,  reaffirms 
the  Kansas  City  platform,  and  in  re- 
lation to  state  issues,  declares  for  equal 
taxation  and  a  more  economical  conduct 
of  state  affairs,  and  denounces  alleged 
'"thievery"  of  various  appointees  under 
the  present  state  administration. 

Tre  convention  was  called  to  order 
by  the  chairman  of  the  state  committee. 
Daniel  J.  Campau,  who,  after  a  few 
brief  remarks,  called  Alfred  Lucking, 
law  partner  of  Mayor  Mayburn,  to  pre- 
side as  temporary  <'hairman. 

Mr.  Lucking  made  a  lengthy  but  ex- 
pressive speech,  referring  principally  to 
the  respective  claims  of  Republicans 
and  Democrats  as  set  forth  in  this  year's 
platform.  He  predicted  that  the  cam- 
iiaisrn  wouldi  not  be  so  exciting  as  that 
of  f:)ur  years  ago,  as  the  "money  bags" 
interests  would  not  feel  themselves  so 
greatly  threatened,  perhaps,  since  hav- 
ing entrenched  themselves  by  the  gold 
standard. 

Mr.  Lucking's  discussion  of  financial 
topics  was  received  by  the  delegates  with 
comparative  apathy,  but  his  condemnu- 
tion  of  the  Filipino  policy  of  the  Kc- 
i^ulilican  administration  was  received 
with   uproarious  applause. 

Ai-.nouncement  of  committee  members

EXTENDED  THE^  SESSIONS. 

Range  to  Set  More  Time  to  Natural- 
ize Citizens. 

In  response  to  a  general  demand,  the 
district  court  has  extended  its  range 
special  sessions  for  naturalization  pur- 
poses to  include  Mountain  Iron  and 
Mesaba  next  Monday,  July  30.  It  had 
been  the  intention  to  conclude  the  range 
sessions  with  the  one  held  yesterday 
at  Virginia,  but  there  were  a  large  num- 
ber of  requests  from  the  other  towns 
for  the  court's  presence  there,  and  they 
were  included  in  the  itinerary  of  the 
court. 

There-  is  a  very  active  demand  for 
second  papers  this  year,  owing  largely 
of  course,  to  the  fact  that  the  fall 
elections  are  drawing  near.  There  will 
be  two  more  chances  for  Duluth  people 
to  get  second  papers  at  evening  sessions, 
when  more  people  can  get  away.  The 
next  one  will  be  held  at  the  court  house 
Friday  night,  when  it  is  expected  that 
there  will  be  a  very  large  attendance. 

!  The  last  one  will  be  held  Friday,  August 

,  3. 

i     Judge    Cant    granted    ninety    second 


papers  at  Hibbing.  182  at    Virginia  and 
twenty-flve  at  Mountain  Iron.

Although  there  v/as  not  much  new  legis- 
lation enacted  during  the  past  year,  yet 
representatives  of  state  leagues  anil 
friends  of  building  and  loan  associations 
in  a  number  of  states  were  kept  bu.^.v 
before  their  respective  !,-eneral  assemblie.-. 
mainly  in  an  effort  to  prevent  the  pass- 
age of  inimical  bills.  This  was  particu- 
larly true  in  New  York,  Texas  and  Micli- 
I  igan,  where  the  tax  <|Ueslion  has  been 
under  consideration.  The  slate  leagues 
are  to  be  congratulated  tipon  the  effective 
work  which  was  aceomiflished.  and  which 
has  further  demonstrated  their  useful-

Reliable  Clotiiier. 


The  wheat  IjuHs  are  getting  terribly 
discouraged  over  the  outlook.  The  drop 
in  the  price  yesterday,  amounting  to  1% 
cents  in  the  Duluth  market,  was  a  nerve 
disturbing  one,  and  they  are  beginning 
to  wonder  whether  there  is  any  bottom. 
The  crop  news  is  just  about  as  bearish 
as  ever  at  the  present  time,  but  yet  the 
price  sags  steadily,  rallj'ing  now  and 
then  a  iriflle,  and  then  slumping  more 
than  the  rally.  Many  of  those  who  still 
hope  for  higher  price?  for  wheat  this 
fall  are  reasoning  that  the  winter  wheat 
crop  is  being  marketed  now,  and  that 
this  breaks  the  price  for  the  time  being, 
but  that  there  will  be  a  big  rally  when 
I  he  country  and  the  world,  for  that  mat- 
ter, begins  to  turn  its  attention  to  the 
receipts  from  the  Northwestern  states. 
There  is  no  deiiyin.g  the  fact  that  it  is 
difllcult  to  hold  the  price  of  wheat  in  the 
face  of  big  receipts,  and  while  much  of 
the  winter  wheat  has  already  be-.-n 
taken  to  market  has  found  it.s  way  into 
millers'  hand.s,  the  fact  remains  that  the 
wheat  is  coming  to  market.  The  great 
reliance  of  the  strong  believers  in  higher 
jirices  for  wheat  is  in  the  certainly  that 
this  fall,  when  the  spring  wheat  will  be 
moving  to  the  markets,  the  receipts  will 
lie  reported  every  day  as  several  hun- 
<lred  cars  less  than  in  1899.  This  view  's 
given  expression  this  week  in  the  review 
of  the  market  by  the  market  editor  of 
the  Chicago  Times-Herald,  one  of  the 
best  known  of  the  market  men  of  the 
country.  The  wheat  market  \9.  more  apl 
to  do  the  unexpected  thing,  however, 
than  that  which  is  anticipated,  for  the 
reason  that  things  whiih  come  to  pass 
are  generally  foreseen  and  discounted, 
and  the  many  i.iears  believe  now  that  tlic 
coming  shortage  in  the  spring  wheat 
crop  has  l)een  entirely  anticipated  and 
discounted.  There  are  many  bears,  how- 
ever, who.  while  b.-licving  in  lower 
I-riccs  for  the  pr-o.^ent,  liave  the  feeling 
;hat  this  fall  will  .sc-  hi^'her  pri.^es  I'oi- 
wheat. 

The  crop  conditions  are  very  poor  in 
North  Dakota,  without  a  doubt  and  if 
the  testimony  of  men  who  visit  hero 
from  that  state  is  correct,  the  stories  oi 
their  .sections  indicativi'  of  the  whole 
state,  a  very  small  cr  ip  may  be  looked 
for.  There  were  three  or  four  men  in 
the  city  last  week  who  have  been  in 
North  Dakota  for  years,  and  liave  seen 
en  p  after  crop  harvested,  and  everyon- 
of  them  said  that  the  outlook  was  very 
1  2d,  no  better  than  had  been  picturwl. 
All  of  them  said  that  the  fanners  in 
their  section  would  be  in  luck  to  get 
see<i  and  bread.     The  estimate  of  7,500,- 

000  bushels  for  the  entire  state,  made  by 
S.  P.  Titus,  of  Grand  Forks,  a  banker  in 
that  state  for  many  years,  has  been 
ridiculed  very  much  by  members  of  the 
Ixiard  of  trade  here,  and  does  look  very 
radical,  but  there  are  many  farmers 
who  look  for  it  to  be  somewhere  near  the 
truth.  It  's  about  the  lowest  estimate 
that  has  been  made,  however,  and  is  apt 
to  be  under  the  right  mark  rather  than 
over  it. 

The  crop  report  for  the  week  ending 
Monday  i?  not  very  encouraging,  and 
the  hot  winds  which  it  reports  are  as 
serious  a  menace  as  the  lack  of  rain  in 
the  opinion  of  grain  men.  The  report 
says: 

•'The  fore  part  of  the  past  week  was 
moderately  cool,  followed  however  on 
Friday  and  Saturday  by  the  highest 
temperatures  of  the  season,  together 
with  high  winds,  which  undoubi:ediy  did 
more  or  less  damage  to  grain  that  is  in 
th-  dough  state.  There  has  been  no 
rain,  except  light  showers  at  widely 
separated  places,  since  the  heavy  rains 
of  the  4th  and  5th.  and  nearly  all  ves- 
tation  is  now  suffering  almost  as  much 
as  it  was  previous  to  these  rains. 

"Cutting  of  oats  and  barley  has  com- 
menced in  nearly  all  parts  of  the  state, 
but  the  yield  is  expected  to  be  light. 
Wheat  cutting  has  commenced  in  the 
extreme  southern  portion,  and  will  com- 
mence in  the  eastern  portion  this  week, 
but  in  some  places  the  straw  is  so  r^hovt 
that  it  cannot  be  cut  with  a  header.  In 
some  sections  what  wheat  is  left  is  being 
cut  for  fodder,  while  in  others  it  is  lie- 
i!ig  used  for  iiasturage  on  account  of  the 
failure  of  the  hay  crop. 

•Torn  ami  potatoes  seem  to  be  thriv- 
ing in  spite  of  the  dryweather,  and  bids 
fair  to  make  an  average  crop.  Flax  has 
generally  deteriorated  Ihe  past  weeK. 
and  its  pr.rspects  are  not  as  good  as  on 
the  firr-t  of  the  month.  Haying  is  in 
projrrr.ss  v. here  there  i.s  any  glass  t  - 
cut.  but  it  is  a  sb-.rt  crop,  even  in  the 
most  favored  localities. 

"Late  grain  1:^  reported  as  filling  well

In    Southern    Minnesota    harvesting    i?

I  follow.s:  ,  .  !.»

PER  LARKA  DEAD. 

Well  Known  Duluthlan  Succumbs  to 
Ravages  of  Cancsr. 

Per  Larka,  one  of  Duluth's  most  pro- 
minent citizens,  deputy  collector  of 
customs  and  former  editor  of  the'Duluth 
Posten,  died  yestserday  at  St.  Mary's 
hospital.  For  some  months  he  has  been 
suffering  from  a  cancer,  but  he  assured 
his  friends  that  he  would  recover  and 
only  a  few  days  ago  told  those  that  called 
on  him,  that  he  was  foiling  much 
stronger  and  expected  to  regain  his 
former  health  within  a  short  time.  Like 
all  cancer  patients  he  was  hopeful  to  the 
ver.v  end. 

His  death  is  a  great  shock  to  a  large 
circle  of  sorrowing  friends.  He  was  08 
years  of  age   and   married.  He   war 

highly  educated,  a  brilliant  writer,  an 
excellent  conversationalist  and  public 
speaker.  He  graduated  from  several  of 
the  leading  universities  of  his  native 
land  including  the  Upsala  college  of 
Sweden. 

Duluth  has  been  his  home  for  the  past 
twelve  years^  Through  his  energy  and 
ability  he  made  the  Duluth  Pos;ten  a 
great  success  among  his  countr.vmen 
and  later  assumed  the  editorial  manage- 


DOCTORS  FOOD  TALK. 

Selection  of  Food  One  of  the  Most 
Important  Acts  In  Life. 

old  Dr.  Hanaford  oT  Reading,  Mass., 
says  in  the  "Messenger:"  Our  health 
and  physical  and  mental  happiness  are 
so  largely  under  our  personal  contrid 
that  the  pnJper  selection  of  food  shoiilil 
be."  and  is,  one  of  the  most  important 
acts  in  life. 

•'On  this  subject,  I  may  say  that  I 
know  of  no  food  e'lual  in  digestibility, 
and  more  powerful  in  jxdnt  of  nutri- 
ment, than  the  modein  Grape-Nuts, 
four  heaping  teaspoons  of  which  is 
sufficient  for  the  cereal  part  of  a  meal, 
and  experience  demonstrates  that  the 
user  is  perfectly  nourished  from  one 
meal  to  another. 

"I  am  convinced  that  the  extensive 
and  general  u.se  of  high  class  foods  of 
this  character  would  increase  the  term 
of  human  life,  add  to  the  sum  total  of 
happiness  and  very  (considerably  im- 
prove society  in  general.  I  am  free  to 
mention  the  food,  for  I  personally  know 
of  its  value." 

Grape-Nuts  food  can  be  used  by. babes 
in  arms,  or  adults.  It  is  ready  cf>oked, 
can  be  served  instantly,  either  cold  with 
cream,  or  with  hot  water  or  hot  milk 
poured  over.  All  sorts  of  puddin.gs  and 
fancy  dishes  can  be  made  with  Grape- 
Nuts.  The  food  is  concentrated  ajid 
very  economical,  for  four  heaping  tea- 
spoons are  sufficient  for  the  cereal  part 
of  a  meal.

produced  at  the  pavilion  last  night  by 
the  Fane  Farrell  company.  There  was 
the  usual  larpre  house.  The  play  which 
is  a  very  prettj  one  gives  Walter  Pane 
a  good  opportunity  to  display  his  his- 
trionic ability.  Miss  Farrell  also

Appearing:  before  the  kaiser  at   his  next

s-lf  as  colonel  of  the regiment,"  nam- 
ing his  new  command. 

The  emperor  looked  at  him  a  moment 
without  speaking.  Then  he  said  in  his 
sharpest  and  most  incisive  tone: 
"The  announcement  Is  false'. " 
.\  dead  silence  followed.  There  was  a

BLACKBART 

Believed  That  the    Famous 

Highwaymen  Is  at  Work 

Again. 

■ysteryand  Romance  Hang 

About  the  Extraordinary 

Criminal's  Career. 


Many  persons  believe  that  Black  Bart, 
the  most  interesting  bandit  the  Pacilic 
coast  has  ever  known.  Is  again  at  work, 
s;iys  a  Los  Angeles  correspondent  of  the 
Nt'W  York  Sun.  Down  in  Arizona  there  is 
.ilmosi  positivt  proof  that  Limping  Dick, 
iulmitledly  the  most  desi>erute  hlghwa.v- 
inan  known  tlieri'  since  the  desperadoc- 
"f  Tombstone  mining  camp  days  is  back 
again  from  his  refuge  among  the  moun- 
t;i!!i  f.istiitsse::  of  Durango  and  Siiialoa, 
Mexico.  Since  last  Jaouary  six  highway 
n>bb»'rVes  of  imusually  bold  charactei' 
have  been  committed  in  Central  ("aji^for- 
tiia  and  in  Souihern  Arizona,  and  all  bear 
tlie  earmarks  of  either  Black  Bart  or 
TJmping    Dick. 

Black  Bart  is  far  and  away  the  most  no- 
torious highwayman  of  the  West.  Amfing 
the  miners  and  the  people  in  the  mountain 
settlements  of  California  there  is  <iuite  as 
nuieh  romantic  lore  about  him  as  there 
\Na.«  aboui  Dick  Turpin.  Black  Bart's 
jingles,  the  bits  of  doggered  he  used  lo 
l>ost  up  at  the  scenes  of  his  robberies,  are 
known  by  heart  by  school  children  al! 
over  the  Pjicilic  coast.  No  other  bandit 
in  America,  possibly,  was  ever  surround- 
ed by  such  an  air  of  romantic  mystery 
.is  he  has  had  for  twenty  years.  His  trial 
for  highway  roi)bfry  at  *\'isalia,  Cal.,  in 
May.  1,'<.S4.  reve.iled  a  mass  of  information 
about  him.  Although  he  was  the  lone  per- 
former in  some  twenty-five  stage  coach 
hold-ups  in  California  alone,  between  1S67 
and  18S4,  he  was  never  once  apprehendeil 
on  the  road. 

His  arrest  came  about  In  this  way.  In 
-March,  IWH.  a  stage  coach  going  from  a 
urold  mining  camp  in  the  Sierras  to  Marys- 
ville.  Cal..  was  held  tip  by  a  masked  ion* 
highwaymen,  whom  the  driver  and  all  the 
passengers  recognized  as  Black  Bart. 
When  the  coach  had  rumbled  out  of  sight 
on  Its  way  down  the  mountain  side  Uiack 
r.art  turned  his  attention  to  splitting  open 
the  wooden  b<'X  containing  the  Wells, 
Fargo  Express  company's  treasure.  S.omc- 
thing  must  have  disturbed  him  in  the 
midst  of  his  work,  for  when  a  party  of  of- 
licers  hurried  back  to  the  scene  later  that 
same  day  tliey  found  among  the  paper.-', 
empty  purses  and  wrappings  of  i)arcels 
dropped  by  Black  Ban  a  linen  cuff.  The 
robber  hid  evidently  dropped  it  in  a  hur- 
lieil  flight   to  his  r<>fuge. 

The  ctifE  was  turned  over  to  the  express 
company  detectives.  They  found  after 
weeks  of  inf|uiry  that  the  laundry  marks 
on  the  cuff  were  of  a  Chinesi^  laundry 
<ni  Biisli  strcf-t  in  San  Vrancisco  and  thai 
I  lie  (  niT  belonged  to  one  Charles  K.  Bol- 
ton. Th<  n  it  appeared  that  Bolton  was  ,i 
"liiiet.  unobtrusive,  spare  man  of  about  .")0 
years.  He  lived  in  a  modest  boarding 
iieuse.  where  se<I.ite  and  old-fashioned 
business  men  had  rooms,  and  everyone 
ilirrc  was  his  friend.  When  a  detective 
went  to  live  in  the  same  hoarding  house 
lie  found  that  Col.  Bolt'in  was  a  studious 
m.in.  lived  a  cc>rrect  life,  was  a  reader  of 
:iew  hooks,  dabbled  in  poetry  and  every 
t"t\v  we>  ks  went  away  to  visit  one  of  the 
.«!  vera!  little  mines  about  California  in 
which  be  had  investments.  Bolton  was  an 
expert  whist  pla.ver.  and  he  had  evidently 
traveled  far  and  wide  in  his  i  arly  life.  His 
luibby  was  water  colors  and  he  spent  whole 
d.iys  in  painting  pastoral  scenes,  alone  i»i 
bis  rooms.  Afttr  dinner  he  generally  went 
to  the  theater,  where  he  took  the  least 
conspicuous  sejit.  He  never  got  any  mail 
rind  he  never  sent  letters,  but  he  de- 
voured   the  daily   newspapers  at   times. 

When  Bolton  was  arrested  in  his  room 
one  day  on  a  charge  of  highway  robliery. 
the  land  lady  boiled  with  indignation.  an<i 
the  other  gtiests  stormed.  Col.  Bolton's 
pastor  wrote  to  a  local  newspaper  de- 
nouncing the  l)lackening  of  an  honest 
m-ins  name.  When  It  went  abroad  that 
Col.  Bolton  was  accu.sed  with  lieing  no  less 
an  outlaw  than  the  notorious  Black  Bsvt, 
the  colonel's  friends  were  crushed.  They 
began  putting  together  facts  about  Col. 
Bolton's  absences  from  his  rooms  and 
found  that  these  absences  accurred  when 
robberies  bv  Itlack  Bart  were  commit- 
ted. During  Black  Bart's  trial  it  came  out 
that  he  was  iKirn  at  Hannilial.  Mo.,  in  l.s3:5: 
that  he  was  educated  for  the  law  and  had 
spent  one  year  at  Oberlin  college,  when  h" 
was  expelled  for  gambling.  He  changed  his 
name,  went  to  Chicago  and  enlisted  in  a 
Wisconsin  regiment  in  the  civil  war.  Next 
he  went  to  the  mines  in  Nevada,  and  drift- 
ed to  California,  where  he  made  a  first  at- 
tempt at  highway  robbery  by  holding  up 
the  paymaster  of  a  mine  In  Plumas  coun- 
ty. The  ioh  was  so  easily  done,  and  he  got 
about  $S»K>  so  (|Uickly.  that  he  gave  his 
whole'tlme  thereafter  to  planning  highway 
robberies.  He  confessed  that  he  had  gone 
as  deliberately  and  studiously  about  his 
career  in  highway  robbery  as  one  goes 
about   the   practice  of  a  profession. 

For  .seventeen  years  he  kept  half  the 
sheriffs  and  constables,  a  lot  of  detectives 
and  all  the  Cniled  States  marshals  in^Cal- 
ifornla  ceaselessly  watchful  for  T^lack 
Bart.  Like  the  wonderful  highwayman  he 
was.  many  a  time  he  walked  down  to  a 
local  bank  carrying  a  snug  fortune  in  h\^ 
gripsack,  the  proceeds  of  a  recent  affair  on 
the  road,  and  passed  hundreds  of  San 
Francisco  people  while  they  were  excited- 
ly discussing  Black  Bart's  latest  hold-up. 
He  told  liow  he  had  often  met  face  to 
face  In  the  parks  ami  on  the  streets  of 
San  Francisco,  men  who  were  in  the  stage 
coaches  he  had  robbed  shortly  before. 
Once  he  rode  from  Sacramento  to  Oak- 
land and  sat  reading  a  book  directly  b. - 
hind  a  sheriff  and  several  expert  crliriinal 
catchers,  who  were  at  that  time  worknig 
up  a  clue  to  the  arch  bandit  of  the  coast. 
Black  Bart  was  convicted,  and  because 
of  his  confessk  n  and  apparent  determioa- 
fion  "to  lead  a  new  life,  he  was  sentenced 
to  San  Quentin  prison  for  only  eight  years. 
He  was  a  mod.-l  prisoner  and  earned  alt 
the  commutatirn  of  his  sentence  by  good 
conduct.  He  was  liberated  In  July.  I.S.V.'. 
For  a  few  weeks  h'^  lived  in  Sacramento, 
waiting,  he  said,  until  ^e  got  some  money 
from  Eastern  relatives,  when  he  meant 
to  go  to  Seattle  to  earn  an  honest  living. 
Then  he  disappeared.  Several  San  Francis- 
co constables  say  they  have  seen  hinr. 
leisurelv  walking  the  streets  In  that  cit\ 
during  the  last  J'ew  years,  but  they  did  not 
know  then  that  $1000  would  be  paid  for  his 
arrest.  .  .        ^      .  , 

"Whv.  there  isn't  a  shadow  of  a  dpubt 
that  Black  Bart  Is  a  highwayman  again," 
said  Sheriff  John  W.  Hunter,  who  secured 
the  robber's  arrest  In  IfSl.  "He  Is  an  ac- 
complished stage  robber  and  pursued  the 
business  so  long  and  successfully  that  we 
have  no  reason  to  believe  that  he  woulo 
be  willing  to  earn  his  living  by  acttial  hon- 
est work.  The  recent  one-man  stage  rob- 
beries occurring  in  this  state  bear  so  many 
characteristics  of  Bart's  artistic  handi- 
work that  we  are  fully  convinced  that  he 
has  resumed  his  former  mining  operations 
and  is  again  jirospectlng  for  bullion  In 
express  comp:tnv  treasure  tjoxes.  He  Is  too 
subtle  and  keen  to  risk  suspicion  by  select 
ing  anv  small  town  as  a  plate  of  resi- 
dence, for  the  reason  that  his  frequent 
absences  would  be  noted  and  discussec! 
and  he  would  naturally  desire  to  avoid 
particulars  In  regard  to  his  trips,  his 
mine.  etc. 

"For  these  reasons  we  believe  that  he 
has  selected  same  such  city  outside  of 
California  as  Denver.  Kan.sas  City. 
Omaha,  Salt  I.j»ke,  or  even  Chicago  or  St. 
Louis,  and  without  creating  surprise  or 
suspicion  mak«s  periodical  trips  for  the 
purpose  of  eleanlng  up  his  mine  an^  r< - 
plenishing  his  excherpier  and  then  reTurii.. 
to  lead  the  same  Innocent,  blameless  life 
which  he  pursued  in  San  Francl.sca  under 
the  name  of  Col.  Charles  E.  Bolton  for 
over  ten  years,  while  police  and  peace  of- 
ficers chased  over  mountains  and  throug'a 
canons  to  get  clews  to  his  identit.v." 

Picturesque  tales  of  Black  Bart's  scien- 
tific methods  of  pillaging  stage  coaches 
are  current  on  the  coast.  Almost  every 
valley  In  California  has  Its  own  charac- 
teristic tale  of  some  romantic  achUvc- 
ment  of  the  famous  road  agent  In  thlr 
state.  There  are  a  dozen  different  stories 
of  how.  in  his  palmy  days  he  used  to  rf>b 
a  stage  coach  at  evening  time  on  a  moun- 
tain trail,  and  how  when  the  conveyance 
lumbered  up  to  the  Inn  a  dozen  miles  di.s- 
tant.  he  himself  would  be  there  on  the 
front  porch  to  sympathize  with  the  stage- 
load  of  frightened  passengers  as  they  told 


their  sorrows.  C»nce  at  the  country  hotel, 
near  Monterey.  Cal..  he  sat  up  with  and' 
helped  to  nurse  an  elderly  nian  who  was 
on   the  verge  of  nervous  prostration   be- 
cause  Black   Bart   had    thrust   the   barrel  I 
of  a  rifle  against  hla  cheek  and  made  hlni  j 
disgorge  all  his  personal  valuables.  Bart  s  i 
consummate    nerve    carried    him    through 
these   ordeals    as   serenely   as   though    he 
were    a    specially    commissioned    philan- 
thropist   sent    by    some    relief    society    to 
console   the  newly  robbed;  and   never  in 
a  single  Instance  did  his  effrontery  fail  to 
place  him  utterly  outside  of  the  remotest 
possibility  of  suspicion. 

He  held  up  the  stage  between  Fresno 
and  Sanger  one  blistering  hot  afternoon 
In  1878.  As  the  coach,  enveloped  bv  a  cloud 
of  dust,  was  running  smartly  through  a 
narrow  cut  between  the  foothills,  a 
masked  man,  wearing  Black  Bart's  cele- 
brated black  apmHrero,  was  suddenb' 
seen  standing  at  the  curve  in  the  road.  He. 
had  several  pistols  at  his  waist  and  a  Win- 
chester rifle  In  his  hands  and  levelled  at 
the  stage  driver. 

"Hold  up.  driver.  Don't  move  a  muscle, 
or  you'll  never  wink  again."  called  the 
masked  man  as  the  creaking  vehicle  came 
to  a  stop. 

Se.veral  women  in  the  Inside  began  to 
shriek.  They  knew  they  were  in  a  hold-up. 
Then  someone  on  the  Inside  called  out. 
"She's  fainted!" 

"What  you  got  aboard?"  asked  the 
masked  man. 

"A  consumptive  woman  from  the  moun- 
tains, and  a  preacher's  wife  and  daughters 
from  Porterville.  and  the  express  i)ox 
hain't  got  a  cent  in  It,"  replied  the  driver. 

"Well.  Black  Bart  never  robs  women, 
you  know,  and  I'll  take  your  word  for 
the  express   box,  "    said   the   robber. 

Then  with  a  significant  glance  at  the 
<lriver.  Black  Bart  lowered  his  rifle,  and  di- 
rected his  attention  to  the  women  inside 
the  coach. 

"Oh,  <lon't  lie  so  frightened  at  a  poor 
road  agent,"  said  he  jocularly.  "I  wouldn't 
hurt  a  hair  of  your  heads.  I'm  risking  more 
now  than  any  one  on  this  stage.  Come, 
come,  don't  be  so  foolish.  1  wo'uldn't  take 
your  measly  money  for  a  .gift.  1  just  rode 
out  here  to  tease  the  driver  on  top  and 
flirt   with   you  girls." 

Just  at  that  moment  the  sound  of  an  ap- 
])roaching  ranch  wagon  was  heard,  and 
with  a  curse  Black  Bart  ordered  the  coach 
to  get  along  as  fast  as  the  horses  could 
haul  it,  while  he  went  over  beyond  the 
cut  In  the  hill,  where  he  leaped  on  his 
horse  and  was  soon  out  of  sight  across 
the  country. 

As  time  wore  on  Black  Bart  became  a 
bolder  and  more  proficient  highwayman. 
He  found  fun  In  writing  bits  of  rhyme  am' 
pinning  the  manuscript  to  some  object  at 
the  scenes  of  his  exploits,  knowing  that 
the  scene  of  a  highway  robbery  is  at  once 
invested  with  a  iiarticular  charm  for  most 
people.  In  July,  IST-'t,  the  stage  running 
from  Sonora  to  Milton  was  robbed  by  a 
lone  highwayman.  The  express  box  was 
thrown  out  and  the  stage  was  allowed  to 
proceed  without  it.  When  a  searching 
party  went  back  to  capture  the  robber 
the  box  was  found  broken  and  empty  in 
the  roadway,  and  scrawled  upon  the  li<l 
was  a  verse  affirming  the  robter's  need 
of  the  stolen  gold  and  attesting  his  cheer- 
ful willingness  to  have  the  matter  thoi- 
oughly  understood  In  its  true  liglit— that 
of  a  straightforward,  unequivocal  rol>- 
berv.  The  vVrse  was  signed  "Black  Bart 
PoS." 

In  August.  1877.  the  "PoS"  disclosed,  in 
the  same  way.  his  identity  as  the  author 
of  the  Fort  Ross  and  Russian  River  stage 
hold-up,  and  for  six  years  thereafter  he 
added  a  score  of  poems  to  the  lids  of  a.-; 
many  broken  express  boxes  In  various 
parts'  of  the  state.  He  always  performed 
these  little  details  in  precisely  the  same 
way:  he  would  suddenly  appear  at  the 
heads  of  the  leading  horses,  le^'el  a  shot- 
gun at  the  occupants  of  the  front  seat 
and  demand  the  stage's  valuables.  His  po- 
etry he  became  philo.^ophic.  He  used  to  ex- 
patiate in  verse  on  the  difference  between 
his  hard,  venturesome  life  and  that  of  the 
head  of  the  corporation.  Then  he  would 
tell  In  verse  how  honest  and  true  he  really 
was.  while  rich  corporations  were  legal- 
ized robbers  that  demanded  not  onl.\ 
money,  but  poor  people's  lifeblood  and 
bone  "and  sinew.  He  never  woidd  taki 
anv  money  from  women  or  veteran  sol- 
dieVs.  "Oh.  I'm  a  G.  A.  R.  boy,  too,"  he 
would  call  out  at  the  sigh.^.  of  a  T'sion  sol- 
dier. His  aversions  were  bankers  and 
money  lenders,  and  he  chuckled  when  he 
found  one  of  them  in  any  stage  coach  he 
held  up.  A  good  deal  of  his  peculiar  verse.'^ 
dealt  with  joy  at  getting  treasure  from  the 
express  company. 

The  late  George  M.  Hackett,  who  died 
at  Mary.svllle.  Cal..  was  pointed  out  as  the 
nervy  guard  of  the  Wells-Fargo  expres.s 
box  who  almost  shot  Black  Bart  to  death 
In  ISSO.  During  the  time  that  Hackett  code 
stages  Black  Bart  won  fame.  Stages  on 
the  Orovllle  and  Downievllle  routes  were 
likely  to  he  held  up  an.v  day.  and  the  mes- 
sengers kept  their  eyes  strained  on  every 
patch  of  chapparal,  for  out  of  such  hidins 
places  usually  came  jiersons  of  the  Black 
B.irt  stamp.  One  day,  there  was  a  large 
amount  of  treasure  aboard  in  charge  of 
Hackett,  and  the  stage  was  swinging  along 
through  territory  that  Black  Bart  rrganbd 
as  his  own,  that  individual  suddenly  ap- 
peared. As  usual,  he  went  to  the  heads 
of  the  horses,  as  he  depended  upon  the 
shelter  afforded  by  them.  A  spike  team 
was  in  use  that  day— that  is,  instead  of 
I  a  pair  of  leaders  there  was  a  single  horse 
in  the  lead.  Becoming  excited,  this  horse 
plunged  wildly,  disconcerting  Hackelt's 
aim  However,  he  fired  a  charge  of  buck- 
shot In  reply.  Bart  lost  his  grip  on  the 
plunging  horse  and  the  stage  went  on. 
Hackett  had  received  some  buckshot  in 
the  face,  one  or  two  perforating  his 
tongue.  Black  Bart  (as  was  afterward  as- 
certained* caught  two  buckshot  in  the  top 
of  his  skull,  along  which  they  ploughed 
a  couple  of  furrows.  He  thought  his  time 
had  come.  Rushing  blindly  into  the  cha|»- 
arral  he  fell,  and  for  some  time  lay  as  if 
dead.  When  he  regained  con.sclousness  he 
was  surprised  to  find  himself  in  the  lanil 
of  stage  coaches,  but  it  was  some  time 
before   he   resumed    operations. 

While  Black  Bart  lay  senseless  in  the 
chaparral  the  spike  team  went  whirling 
down  the  road.  Hackett  was  not  only 
wounded  but  Indignant.  Fii#  the  first  time 
in  his  career  he  had  left  his  faithful  re- 
volver behind  at  a  stage  station.  He  was 
confident  that  if  he  had  it  to  back  up  his 
shotgun  Black  Bart's  depredations  Avould 
have  been  ended.  He  reloaded  his  shotgun 
and  kept  up  his  lookout  for  bandits.  Four 
miles  bevond  the  scene  of  the  first  encoun- 
ter was  another  thicket,  and  from  behind 
a  tree  at  the  edge  of  it  Hackett  descried 
the  flutter  of  a  linen  duster. 

"There's  more  of  em."  he  remarked  to 
the  driver,  "give  the  horses  the  silk.' 

The  horses  jumpen  as  the  long  whip 
touched  their  flanks,  and  they  kept  on  run- 
ning despite  the  command  of  the  man  in 
the  linen  duster.  Hackett  fired  a  shot  In 
passing,  and  the  charge  tore  the  bark  from 
the  side  of  the  tree  iust  at  the  height  of 
a  man's  heart,  but  the  tree  was  a  safe 
shield.  So  after  being  twice  in  one  day 
subjected  to  the  perils  of  the  road  Hack- 
ett r<*ached  the  end  of  his  run  with  his 
treasure  intact.  He  did  not  think  much 
about  the  achievement,  hut  as  .soon  as  his 
wounds  healed  took  to  his  duties  again. 

Once  when  the  Oroville  stage  had  been 
robbed  Detective  Hume  started  out  to  see 
If  he  could  catch  the  robber.  This  was  not 
on  Hackett's  run,  but  a  little  later  the 
messenger  happened  to  be  in  the  vicinity 
and  decided  to  do  a  little  sleuthing  on  his 
own  account.  Prowling  around  through 
the  chaparral,  he  came  upon  the  spot 
where  the  robber  had  hidden  the  gold  and 
part  of  his  clothes.  Hackett  knew  the 
man  would  he  back  soon  after  the  cloth- 
ing, and  so  he  secreted  himself  nearby. 
He  waited  some  hours  and  the  robber 
appeared.  Hackett  made  him  throw  up 
his  hands,  bound  his  arms  securely  and 
took  him  to  Downievllle.  When  Hume  ar- 
rived there  was  the  malefactor  with  his 
booty  ready  for  him.  The  robber's  name 
was  Liverpool.  He  went  to  the  penitenti- 
ary and  Hackett  went  back  to  his  run. 

Limping  Dick,  to  whom  nine  highway 
robberies  have  been  attributed,  is  a  wide- 
ly different  sort  of  outlaw  from  Black 
Bart.  He  Is  a  half-breed  Mexican  about  40 
years  old.  tall,  mu.scular  and  very  dark 
skinned.  He  was  shot  in  the  right  foot 
ten  or  twelve  years  ago  while  he  was  ca- 


At  least  it  does  not 
seem  so  when  there  is

caping  with  some  plunder  from  Fort 
Bowie,  and  he  ha.**  limped  ever  since.  Me 
is  known  as  I.ilmping  Dick,  the  outlaw,  all 
over  the  Southwest.  The  person  who  wili 
give  information  causing  lumping  Dick's 
arrest  will  get  some  $2(KiO  reward  from  sev- 
eral sources.  A  year  ago  it  was  reported 
in  Arizona  that  Dick  was  among  the  dead 
in  the  Yaqui  warfare  In  Sonora,  Mexic'.). 
He  had  fled  to  Mexico  for  safety  after  the 
hold-up  of  the  Southern  Pacific  overlaiKi 
train   at  Box   Springs  station. 

Limping  Dick  first  became  famous  a.> 
the  all-round  bad  man  of  Arizona  by  his 
scheme  to  rob  Ma.i.  J.  W.  Wham,  pay- 
master in  the  United  Slates  army,  of  some 
%2'.(m.  It  was  in  the  fall  of  1890  that  Maj. 
Wham  and  an  escort  of  ten  or  twelve  sol- 
diers were  proceeding  from  Tucson  to 
Fort  <3rant,  in  Arizona.  The  paymaster 
was  going  to  pav  the  soldiers  and  con- 
tractors at  Fort  Grant  and  the  moneywas 
carried  In  a  leather  gripsack  fastened  to 
the  saddle  of  the  major's  horse.  The  sol- 
diers were  riding  along  through  a  nar- 
row canon  in  Plna  county.  They  came  to 
a  boulder  that  blocked  the  passage  of  the 
canon.  Thinking  the  big  stone  had  acci- 
dentally rolled  there  from  the  heights 
above  'the  soldiers  dismounted  and  put 
their  shoulders  to  the  boulder  to  move  it 
to  one  side.  Limping  Dick  and  a  gang  of 
six  or  seven  men.  all  armed,  had  rolled 
the  stone  across  the  floor  of  the  canon. 
While  the  soldiers  were  pushing  and  tug- 
ging at  the  boulder  the  robbers  took  de-. 
liberate  aim  and  fired  up<in  them.  Two 
soldiers  fell  dead,  and  the  frightened 
horses  ran  away.  The  unharmed  soldier.s 
and  Ma.i.  Wham  knew  it  would  be  sui- 
cide to  stay  there.  So  they  got  away  with 
all  disi)atch.  leaving  the  army  money  for 
Limping  Dick  and  his  half-breed  gang  to 
get.  An  extraordinary  effort  was  made 
to  catch  the  outlaws,  but  .so  far  all  in 
vain.  The  gang  is  in  Mexico  one  year 
and    In    Arizona    the   next. 


W0MArS_FI6URE. 

Efftcts  of  the  Spread  of  the  Berman 
Corset. 

One  rarely  looks  for  news  of  the  fash- 
ions in  a  consular  report,  but  there  are 
grounds  for  .satisfaction  in  the  announ- 
cement which  comes  thus  in  official  form 
tSiat  German  corsets  are  no  longer  as 
popular  here  as  they  were  several  years 
ago.  It  is  not  advantageous  to  the  wo- 
men of  other  countries  that  the  corset 
of  German  make  has  already  become  so 
popular  among  them  that  it  has  driven 
otit  all  local  makes  in  places  where  the 
less  expensive  kinds  are  bought.  Be- 
tween 40,000  and  50,000  women  were  em- 
ployed in  the  corset  factories  of  Hesse- 
Nassau,  Berlin.  Hamburg.  Saxony  and 
Wurtemberg  five  years  ago.  Even  last 
year  74,515  pounds  of  German  corsets— 
they  are  always  estimated  in  nounds— 
were  brought  to  this  country,  as  again.'^t 
1  098,772  pounds  sent  from  Germany  to 
England.  23S.537  to  Holland  and  148,363 
to   Switzerland. 

If  the  German  corset  is  to  spread  over 
the  world  it  is  encouraging  to  knov,- 
that  the  figures  of  American  women  are 
not  to  be  distorted  into  the  strange  Imes 
that  conform  with  the  German  ideas  of 
beauty,  savs  the  New  York  Sun.  These 
lines  are  distinctly  at  variance  with  llio 
ideas  that  obtain  now  in  this  count:y 
and  are  comr>letely  at  variance  with 
fhe  ideas  of  the  corset  that  are  most 
popular  now.  It  will  "De  observed  that 
France  does  not  figure  in  the  list  of 
countries  to  which  the  German  corsets 
are  exported,  and  something  besides 
patriotism  is  undoubtedly  responsibl'-' 
for  that.  It  is  the  question  of  taste 
that  undoubtedly  keeps  the  German 
corset  beyond  the  frontier.  It  is  im- 
nossible  to  imagine  that  a  French  wo- 
man would  consent  to  have  her  aopear- 
ance  sooiled  as  it  would  be  by  the  out- 
lines of  the  German  corset. 

These  corsets  are  made  to  produce  a 
figure  that  conforms  only  to  the  most 
arbitrarv  idea.  Before  it  became  un- 
fashionable to  have  small  waists  it  was 
the  desire  of  every  woman,  and  it  in  a 
measure  continues  so  today,  to  have  her 
waist  look  small  when  she  was  viewed 
from  the  front  or  back.  The  German 
idea,  judging  by  the  corsets  manufac- 
tured in  that  country,  is  to  make  a 
woman  look  thin  when  viewed  in  profile. 
So  the  corset  is  drawn  so  tight  that  life 
must  be  difficult  and  health  out  of  the 
question  merely  that  the  waist  when 
viewed  from  the  side  may  look  as  nar- 
row as  possible.  This  would  never  ap- 
peal to  the  taste  of  any  other  country. 

It  is  the  cheapness  of  the  German 
corset  which  has  had  more  than  any- 
thing else  to  do  with  its  popularity.  It 
is  said  by  the  shopkeepers  who  handle 
them  here  that  German  corsets  possess 
greater  strength  than  those  made  any- 
where else  and  that  element  has  made 
them  popular  with  persons  who  buy 
cheap  corsets.  They  would  have  to  be 
capable  of  withstanding  a  great  strain 
to  be  servicable  in  their  own  country. 
German  women  lace  more  tightly  than 


those  of  any  other  nation.  English  v^-o- 
men  of  fashion  pinch  in  their  waists, 
but  working  women  and  those  of  the 
middle  class  do  not.  French  women, 
in  sDltG  of  the  impression  to  the  con- 
trary, are  not  as  i.  rule  tightly  laced. 
French  dresses  are  never  made  to  tit 
tightly,  and  that  i^  in  itself  sufficient 
evidence  that  the  cur.sets  are  not  drawn 
to    an    uncomfortable    extent. 

One  of  the  French  fashions  which  fre- 
quently prevents  an  understanding  be- 
tween the  Paris  dressmaker  and  her 
American  customer  is  to  have  theS'? 
loosely  fitting  waists  that  are  resarde.l 
by  French  women  as  the  only  iirorier 
style  in  a  garment.  The  Viennese  cor- 
sets, so  much  praised,  are  quite  differ- 
ent from  the  French.  They  are  drawn 
tight  and  the  effect  is  to  make  the  w.-)- 
men  look  as  if  they  had  been  poured  m- 
to  them.  They  hav?  none  of  the  eccen- 
tricities of  outline  to  be  discovered  in 
the  German  corsets,  although  the  women 
of  Austria  and  Germany  and  equally  ad- 
dicted to  tight  lacing.  It  is  in  the  latter 
country  that  the  hardest-worked  housc- 
l:\dd  drudge,  restiurant  waitress  or 
i-Jiopgirl  goes  about  her  task  so  tightly 
encomoassed  by  her  stiff,  hard  corset 
that  it  looks  as  if  her  work  must  be 
made  tv^enty  times  as  difficult  by  her 
manner  of  dress.  Yet  she  would  noi 
give  up  for  anything  in  the  world  thi- 
modish  waist  which  her  corset  supplies. 
She  may  suffer  torments  and  her  healtJi 
may  be  ruined,  bi;t  she  is  as  tightly 
laced  as  any  princi  ss  in  the  land. 

VIRTUES JF^PUMTS. 

The  Curative  Quailties  of  the  Ordin- 
ary Varieties. 

It  is  not  a  generally  accepted  fact  that 
nearly  all  the  plants  grown  have  some 
curative  virtue,  hu:  such  is  the  ca.^e. 
And  if  the  average  man  would  only  ap- 
pieciate  this  statement  at  its  full  value 
he  would  give  the  preference  to  the 
olants  which  are  certain  to  cure  ail- 
ments if  treated  prcperly.  as  it  cdsts  no 
more  to  rai.se  a  medicinal  plant  than  one 
purely  ornamental,  says  the  Cincinnati 
Enquirer.  Take,  foi-  instance,  the  beau- 
tiful sunflower.  If  you  get  the  leaves 
and  stems  and  ste^^p  them  in  brandy, 
ynu  have  a  tinctur'?  which  has  all  the 
virtues  of  quinine.  A  small  quantity 
will  brace  you  up  and  give  you  a  raven- 
ous appetite.  A  U  rger  quantity  will 
cure  your  neuralgia  or  allay  your  fever, 
if  you  happen  to  be  suffering  fmm 
typhoid.  The  sweet-smelling  verbena 
make  an  infusion  which  is  a  fine  cure  for 
.sore  throat,  and  it  will  also  prevent  your 
hair  falling  off.  Feonel,  which  we  grow 
in  kitchen  gardens  to  flavor  sauces, 
makes  a  man  strong,  gives  him  courage, 
and  adds  a  dozen  years  to  his  life. 

Ferns  have  many  -urative  qualities.  If 
:.  ou  are  wanting  in  common  sense  the 
maidenhair  fern  will  give  it  to  you.  and 
it  has  be"n  known  to  make  idiots  into 
sensible  men.  Maidenhair  fern  tea  is  a 
splendid  cure  for  a  cold.  And  the  tinc- 
ture makes  one's  hair  grow  luxuriantly. 

You  can- easily  grow  a  blackberry  bush 
in  your  garden,  and  from  its  l«^aves  and 
fruit  many  useful  medicines  can  be 
made.  If  you  eat  the  young  shoots  they 
will  harden  your  gums.  If  you  make  o 
decoction  of  the  leaves  you  have  a  cure 
for  whooping  cough.  For  an  ordinary 
sore  throat  nothing  s  better  than  black- 
berry jam.  And  if  you  boil  thi-  leav-r^s 
in  a  strong  lye  you  get  a  liquid  which 
will  dye  your  hair  a  beautiful  glossy 
black. 

The  cowslip  can  le  very  easily  culti- 
vated. It  looks  pretty,  and  it  is  very 
useful.  If  you  canrot  sleep,  take  som-^ 
of  the  powdered  root  and  it  will  send 
you  into  the  soundest  slumber.  If  you 
want  to  do  some  mountain  climbing,  and 
don't  feel  your  nerves  up  to  the  mark, 
boil    the   roots    in    ale    and    take    a    few 


draughts  of  it.  You  can  then  stand  on 
a  masthead  without  a  tremor. 

If  you  happen  to  be  puglllstically  in- 
clined you  should  certainly  keep  sonic 
white  bryony  in  your  garden.  Its  pale 
yellow  flowers  and  brilliant  red  berries 
will  re^vard  you  for  your  labor.  And  i.' 
you  make  a  de.^oction  of  the  ruot  it  will 
cure  a  black  eye  like  magic. 

Camomile  is  worth  cultivating  for  the 
sake  of  its  pleasant  and  refreshing  odor. 
But  it  is  al.so  a  valuable  medicii.al  rem- 
edy. No  finer  stimulant  can  l>e  found 
foi  a  languid  stomach  than  <  amomilc 
tea.  If  you  make  a  tincture  with  spirit.^ 
of  wine  it  will  cure  your  neuralgia, 
while  an  infusion  is  an  excellent  thing 
Ic  give  irritable  and  restless  children. 

Coltsfoot,  with  its  pleasant  smell,  is  a 
cure  for  asthma.  You  can  make  it  and 
it  will  give  you  instant  relief. 

The  lovely  lily  of  the  valley  has  the 
I  curious  power  of  strengthening  ih-' 
memory.  It  al.so  strengthens  the  heart, 
and  is  a  splendid  thing  to  take  befon- 
going  on  a  long  c.vde  ride.  And  if  you 
make  a  gnuff  of  the  dried  flowers  it  will 
cure  the  worst  headache. 

The  fragrant  marigold,  much  used  on 
the  ci>ntinent  for  flavoring  soups,  is  ii 
splendid  thing  for  consumption.  It  alsi> 
raises  ones  spirits  in  a  wonderful  man- 
ner. If  you  have  measles  there  is  noth- 
ing to  equal  a  decoction  of  marigolds, 
while  the  )iain  of  a  l)ee-sting  can  be  re- 
moved by  rubbing  a  fresh  flower  to  the 
painful  spot. 

Lavender  makes  the  hair  grow,  ii 
:'ures  sprains  and  stiff  j<iints,  and  a  littl  • 
oil  of  lavender  will  cure  giddiness  and 
stiff  joints,  and  a  little  oil  of  lavender 
will  cure  giddiness  and  palpitation. 

The  primrose  is  useful  as  ucll  as  or- 
namental. If  you  make  an  infusion  of 
1  limroses  you  have  as  giKid  p  cure  as 
i?ny  doctor  can  give  you  f(jr  headache, 
hysteria  or  sleeplessness. 

No  garden  should  be  without  an  apple 
tree.  A  poultice  of  rotten  apples  will 
cure  sore  eyes.  If  you  eat  a  few  good 
r.pples  every  day  you  will  be  sure  to 
escape  the  gout.  And  if  you  are  in- 
clined to  have  warts  a  raw  apple  rubbed 
to  th<-m  will  very  quickly  remove  them. 

Even  the  common  potato  is  good  medi- 
cine for  rheumatism.  A  decoction  of 
ri  tatoes.  used  as  a  fomentation,  will 
give  perfect  relief.

IRONING  WAISTS. 
The  home  laundress  will  not  find  tlv 
task  of  Ironing  shirt  waists  as  anluous 
if  she  will  provide  herself  with  .some  of 
the  litments  that  come  espcci.-illy  to  aid 
her  in  this  work.  In  all  the  house  fur- 
nishing store's  can  now  be  found  a  special 
equipment  of  iortis  for  smoothing  th<^ 
wrinkles  from  summers  poi)ular  gar- 
mot.  There  are  small  ones  for  the  sleeves 
and  larger  one^s.  with  long,  slender  noscs 
for  the  waist  prop^r.  where  the  gathers 
at  the  belt  and  neck  make  ironing  diffi- 
cult. All  are  an  improvement  on  the  or- 
dinary Irons,  and  will  giv<"  better  results. 
Many"  women  prefer  to  do  up  their  owe 
shirt  waists,  even  wh^n  the  rest  of  tin- 
wash  is  sent  to  the  laundry,  and  they  Jlml 
these  little  conveniences  will  gr«atly  light-

DAMAGE  WAS  TERRIFIC. 


Appalling  Scent  of  Ruin  and  Desola 
tion  In  lion  Tsin. 

Tien  Tsin.  July  is.  via  Shanghai.  July 
24.— Copyrighted.  190U.  by  the  Associal,  3 
I*res.s.) — Col.  Bower  of  the  Chinese  regi- 
ment. Col.  Wngaok  of  the  Russians  and 
Col.  Aoki  of  the  Japanese  will  form  iiie 
Joint  provisinnal  government  for  the  city 
of  Tien  Tsin,  which  it  was  recently  de- 
cided to  establish.  Thfy  will  be  entrus  - 
ed  with  the  task  of  bringing  somethi:  i 
like  order  out  of  existing  chaos. 

Since  the  issue  of  the  proclamation  i.> 
viting  well-disposed  Chinese  to  return 
to  th*=ir  homes,  a  number  have  cjiiie 
bark  ic*  the  city  and  many  native  ser- 
vants are  roming  to  the  settlements,  a 
majority  of  them  returning  to  the  ser- 
vice of  their  previous  employers. 

The  native  city  this  afternoon  pre- 
sents an  ax>palling  scene  of  ruin  and 
d. -^  lation.  The  suburbs  were  cjv..- 
pi.  tely  destroyed  by  fire,  mostly  caused 
by  the  shells  of  the  allies  on  the  side 
facing  the  settlements.  It  is  believed 
that  not  a  dozen  houses  are  intact,  and 
all  were  a  little  damaged  by  the  tre- 
mendous fire  of  the  allies'  artillei  y, 
which,  however,  was  apparently  nit 
heavy  enough  to  jiroduce  much  effect. 
A  curious  spectacle  is  presented  by  a 
number  of  mud  hovels  immediately  un- 
derneath the  wall  where  the  latter  was 
most  damaged,  hardly  one  of  them  shnv- 
ing  si^ns  of  having  been  hit. 

Inside  the  city  the  damage  was  terri- 
fic. The  buildings  nearest  the  wall  were 
mostlv  gutted  by  fire  and  many  were 
totally  blown  t"  pieces  by  the  shells  of 
tne  allies.  Among  the  smouldering  ruir.s 
are  many  charred  corpses,  which  tl\e 
pigs  and  dogs  are  e.iting.  The  allies  are 
busy  removing  the  bodies,  but  in  cons^^- 
que'nce  of  the  great  number  of  dead, 
manv  have  not  yet  been  buried. 

The  streets  throughout  the  city  are 
strewn  with  all  kinds  of  artices.  and 
dozen.^  of  Chinese  are  digging  in  the 
ruins  for  money  and  other  valuables. 
Mt'St  of  the  houses  which  are  intact,  or 
little  damaged,  display  the  flags  of  one 
or  the  other  of  the  allied  forces,  the  Jap- 
ar;ese  and  French  flags  predominating. 
There  have  been  many  attempts  to  imi- 
tate the  flags  which,  under  other  cir- 
cumstances, would  be  laughable.  Th«> 
houses  which  do  not  display  flags  show 
bits  cf  cotton  or  paper  bearing  the 
names  of  the  allied  nations  and  compli- 
mentary sentences.  The  French,  appa- 
lently.  are  ihe  favorites,  many  of  ihe 
pieces  of  cotton  and  paper  displayed 
bearing    the    inscription    "France,"    or 


"Vive  la  Prance."  All  are  unmistakably 
in  the  handwriting  of  native  clerks,  f.ir- 
merly  employed  by  foreign  Chinese 
firms. 

It  is  stated  that  the  Chinese  losses 
since  the  trouble  broke  out  are  ll.OOu, 
most  of  whom  have  nren  killed  by  Box- 
ers and  soldiers.  This  is  probably  much 
exaggerated. 

The  Boxers  are  said  to  be  gathering  in 
large  numbers  in  the  neighborhood  of 
the  Hakon  arsenal,  captured  by  .\dmiral 
.•Seymour's  column  and  now  occupied  by 
Riis.sian  troops,  who  have  suffered  sev- 
eral ca.^ualties  through  'snipers,'  con- 
ceal.'J     1  th'-  .vuods  in  that  vicinity.

PANTS  MAKERS  STRIKE. 

General   Walk-Out    In    New  York 
and  Newark. 

New  York.  July  2."..— Mo..;t  of  the  pants 
makers  in  ilanhattan  borough  have 
struck  for  a  ten  hour  work  day  and  an 
advance  of  10  per  cent  in  wages.  Theiv 
are  5000  pants  makers  in  New  York. 
Brooklyn  and  Newark.  They  belong  to 
unions  which  are  affiliated  with  the 
Cnited  Garment  Workers,  and  the  latter 
organization  has  used  all  its  influence 
to  prevent  a  strike,  believing  the  time 
inopportune.  However.  the  pants 
makers  of  New  York  have  called  out 
the  men  in  more  than  300  shops.  The 
leaders  of  the  strike  sent  telegrams  to 
branches  in  Newark  informing  them  of 
the  strike,  and  received  replies  saying 
that  the  branches  would  be  guided  by 
the  action  of  the  New  Yorkers.  The 
strike  i.s  the  result  of  an  increa.se  in  the 
number  of  garments  to  be  made  per 
day.

troops  gathered  together  from  all  over 
the  United  States  for  duty  in  the  Orient. 

At  military  headquarters,  everybody  is 
Working  under  pressure. 

Battery  D  of  the  Third  heavy  artillery, 
has  arrived  and  encamped  with  batteries

REPORTS  A  VICTORY 


.\ew  York,  July  2,"..— A  dispatch  to  tlu 
lleiald  from  Panama,  dated  July  24, 
.says:  Fighting  is  now  going  on  in  the 
outskirts  of  this  city.  Large  numbers 
of  the  revolutionary  forces  reached  the 
suburbs  early  tliis  morning  and  besan 
a  vigorous  attack,  which  is  ptill  in  pro- 
gi'ess. 

Ciovernment  forces  are  making  a 
strong  resistance  in  the  entrenched  posi- 
tions th'-y  have  occupied  for  several 
days.  It  is  calculated  that  200  men  have 
been  killed  or  wounded  so  far,  among 
them  being  many  well-known  residents 
of  this  ■•ity.  The  Red  Cross  hospital 
here  is  tilled  with  wounded  and  dyin? 
soldiers. 

The  help  of  the  ambulance  corps  of  the 
British  cruiser  Leander  has  also  been 
required  in  caring  for  the  woundeil.  and 
efforts  are  now  being  m.ade  to  bring 
about  a  short  armistice  in  order  to  bury 
the  dead  and  pick  up  the  wounded  still 
in   the  trenches. 

Among  the  wounded  is  Gen.  Lozada. 
formerly  in  command  of  the  government 
troops,  who  took  refuge  with  others  o\\ 
the  cruiser  Leander  on  Saturday.  He 
returned  to  shore  today  and  took  the 
place  of  a  private  in  the  ranks,  fighting 
with  the  bravest. 

Every  possible  effort  has  been  made 
by  the  foreign  consuls  here  to  arevent 
a  disastrous  conflict  in  the  streets  of  the 
city,  but  they  have  not  been  success- 
ful. 

Oen.  Herrera.  conuaander-in-chief  of 
the  revolutionists,  is  still  at  Corozal,  but 
it  is  believed  he  will  soon  join  his  force/, 
now  in  action.  If  he  does  so.  the  attack.-- 
will  undoubtedly  be  still  more  vigorni.-- 
and  the  fighting  m-irr>  general,  with  dis- 
astrous results  in  the  city  proper. 

Panama  is  almost  deserted.  Stray  bul- 
lets are  constantly  dropping  in  the 
streets  and  several  persons  have  been 
struck  by  them.

FIGHT  A  DRAW. 
Chicago.  July  23.— Tommv  Ryan,  of  Sv- 
racuse,  and  Jack  Root,  of  Chicago,  fought 
a  draw  at  Tattersall's  last  night.  Neither 
had  any  marked  advantage  during  the 
six  rounds,  although  Ryan  sent  Root  to 
the  floor  in  the  first  round  with  a  right 
hook  to  the  jaw.  Root  evened  matters  up 
in  the  next  round  in  several  hfavy  right 
swings  to  Ryan" 3  ear  that  brought  the 
blood  in  streams.  After  that  the  contest 
appeared  more  like  a  sparring  match  than 
a  fight  and  the  6000  spectators  gave  vent 
to  their  disapproval  in  cries  of  "fake," 
and  "take  them  oft." 


IS  IMPORTANT. 

Ruling  of  Mankato  Court  Dis- 
turbs the  Forfeited  Tax 
Purchasers. 

The  decision  of  Judpe  Cray,  of  Mankalo. 
on  a  forfeited  tax  case,  reported  by  The 
Herald  several  days  ago,  in  which  he 
held  that  the  holder  of  a  tax  title  only 
had  a  lien  for  the  amount  of  taxes,  pen- 
alties and  Interest,  was  quite  a  shock  to 
manv  local  holders  of  forfeited  tax  tit'es 
in  the  two  sales  that  have  been  held  here, 
and  thev  are  earnestly  hoping  that  the 
decision  v.lll  not  prove  good  law. 

So  far  as  can  be  learned,  the  point  in- 
volved there  was  not  raised  here.  A  num- 
ber of  oih<  r  points  were  raised  and  argued 
.xtenslvely,  and  the  district  court  here 
upheld  the  law  under  which  last  year  ^ 
-^ale  was  held.  The  case  decided  at  Man- 
kato was  under  the  later  law  of  l>r*.  isn- 
der  whl<-h  the  sale  of  this  year  was  held, 
but  the  objection  raised  in  this  case 
would  rndiablv  appiv  with  ecpial  force 
to  .sales  under  th.-  older  law.  This  -^\n\. 
is  in  eff'Ht  that  the  law  is  bad  in  sp  far 
as  it  attempts  to  divest  the  original  own- 
er of  the  right  to  a  notice  of  redemption, 
provided  for  bv  the  law  in  force  when  the 
property  was  sold  to  the  state  for  the 
original  taxes.  ^  ,     ^      , 

Tho  court  there  gave  the  defendant, 
who  was  the  holder  of  the  tax  title,  a  Ikh 
for  the  amount  of  the  taxes,  penalties 
and  Interest.  He  had  paid  more  than  that 
amounted  to  at  the  sale,  however,  and  ^o 
far  as  this  decision  goes  he  is  out  the 
balance,  though  it  Is  probable  that  In  Ihe 
event  tiat  the  supreme  court  upholds  this 
decision  he  could  recover  from  the  coun- 
ty. 

The  idea  of  giving  a  notice  of  redemp- 
tion is  inconsistent  with  the  theory  of  the 
forfeited  tax  law.  however.  This  law  pro- 
vided that  to  tho  purchaser  of  properi..' 
at  the  sale  a  clear  title  passed  by  his 
purchase.  No  redemption  was  allowed, 
of  course,  becau.-^e  thfre  could  be  no  re- 
demption from  the  absolute  title  that  the 
law  purported  to  lonvey.  In  the  %ise  of 
the  law  of  IS97,  under  which  last  year's 
s»ale  wrs  held,  redemption  was  allowed 
where  taxes  for  1895  only  were  due,  but 
under  the  1S99  law.  the  sale  for  which  wa.-! 
held  this  year,  there  was  no  redemption 
whatever. 

The  gi-neral  Impression  among  the  legal 
fraternitv  here  Is  that  the  supreme  court 
will  not"  uphold  the  Mankato  decision. 
They  sov  that  the  law  of  ISSl.  which  was 
ui)held  bv  the  supreme  court  In  repeated 
decisions.'  divested  the  fee  owner  of  his 
right  of  redemption  just  as  did  the  laws 
of  1S97  and  1S99.  and  the  supreme  court 
has  therefore  practically  passed  on  the 
question. 

Should  the  Mankato  decision  hold,  how- 
ever, and  a  similar  point  be  ralse<l  on  the 
law  of  1S97,  there  will  be  a  great  stir  in 
Duluth,  for  there  is  a  great  deal  of  money 
tied  up  in  forfeited  tax  titles.  The  IS.'*.' 
law  provided  that  actions  to  test  the  titU  s 
given  bv  the  law  must  be  V)rought  within 
nine  months,  and  the  time  was  up  last 
Febnuiry.  All  of  the  actions  that  can  l)e 
brought,  therefore,  are  in  court.  In  none 
of  them  is  this  issue  raised  so  far  as  they 
have  been  reported,  and  it  is  a  questio'i 
whether  It  could  be  smugsled  in,  as  most 
of  the  cases  have  been  tried. 

Local  purchasers  of  forfeited  tax  titUs 
arp    interested    just    now    in    getting    tho 

Folnts  raised  before  the  supreme  court, 
t  is  understood  that  the  case  of  C.  Lea 
Abell  against  A.  Fitger  and  others,  which 
was  considered  to  be  the  best  test  case, 
has  befn  settled,  so  it  will  not  go  up  to 
the  supreme  court.

->f  this  city,  has  sent  a  Iftter  to  George 
Foster  Peabody,  chairman  of  the  na- 
tional (gold)  Democratic  party,  tender- 
ing his  resignation  as  a  member  of  the

London,  July  2.^;.  12:4.')  p.  m.— The  war 
office  has  receiv-ed  the  following  dis- 
patch from  Lord  Roberts : 

"Vandermerwe  Station,  July  24. — We 
made  a  general  advance  yesterday  from 
the  position  we  have  been  holding,  east 
of  Pretoria,  since  June  12.  Ian  Hamilton, 
from  the  north,  had  reached  Rustfontein, 
several  miles  north  of  Kronkhorst  Spruit, 
on  July  22.  Thi.s  so  completely  sur- 
rounded the  enemy's  line  of  retreat  that 
they  abandoned  the  strong  ij<isition  they 
had  been  occupying  in  front  of  Pok- 
Carew.  Stephenson's  brigade  advanttd 
yesterday  unopposed  to  Eland's  River 
station.  Our  right  was  protected  by  tho 
first  four  brigades  of  cavalry  under 
French  and  Hutton's  mounted  infantrv. 
The  former  cross.-d  east  of  Wilger 
river. 

"Railway  and  telegraphic  communi- 
cation were  restored  last  night. 

"In  the  supply  train  captured  at 
Roodeval  were  200  Welsh  fusiliers,  mo.st 
of  whom  had  been  prisoners.  Dewet's 
force  is  continuin?:  to  move  northeast- 
erly. It  was  at  Roodeijoort  July  22, 
with  Broadwoml  not  far  behind  and 
Little's  cavalry  brigade  following  Broad- 
wood. 

"Baden  Powell  reports:  'On  Magato 
Farm,  July  22.— Cols.  Arey  and  Lu.sh- 
ington,  with  450  men,  drove  1000  Boers 
from  a  very  strong  positi  >n  and  scat- 
tered them,  with  ronsiderable  loss.  Our 
casualties  were  six  killed  and  nineteen 
wounded.'  " 

It  is  not  clear  whether  the  supply 
train  and  200  fusiliors  mentioned  in  thv' 
above  dispatch  are  idenlii-al  with  the 
train  and  100  Cameron  Highlanders,  the 
capture  of  which  was  reported  by  Lon! 
Roberts  in  his  communication  of  uJly  22. 

The  following  dispatch  from  Lord 
Roberts  has  been  received  at  the  war 
office: 

"Fironkhorst  Spruit.  Tue.sday,  July  24. 
—\\\'  marched  here  today.  This  is  the

'Kidies  of  the  enemy.  Th^se  were  driven

A  good  many  were  also  captured.  Our 
casualties  were  one  killed. 

"Broadwood  rep<jrls  that  he  captured 
f've  of  Dewet's  wagons  today.  He  was 
vvaiting  at  Vredefort  until  Little  joined 
him." 

THE  BOERSJKIP  OUT. 

Anticipate  British  Advance  and  Go 
Towards  Leydenburg. 

Bionkhorstspruii,  Tuesday,  July  2."..— 
The  Boers,  having  .got  wind  of  the  Brit- 
ish advance,  have  evacuated  all  their 
positions  and  are  reported  to  be  moving 
to  the  northeast  towards  Leydenberg. 
whither  President  Kruger  is  going.  A 
portion  of  the  Boers  remain  north  of 
Bushveldt,  whence  they  attempt  to  in- 
terruDt  communications  on  this  line. 
The  bridges  here  and  smaller  bridges  to 
the  west  have  been  destroyed. 

The  British  force  comprises  two  bri- 
gades under  Gen.  French  and  a  brigade 
and  a  half  under  Gen.  Hamilton.  It  is 
not  likely  that  the  advance  upon  Middl?- 
burg  will  be  contested.  The  Boers  re- 
maining upon  tCieir  farms  state  that 
most  of  the  burghers  are  anxious  to 
bring  matters  to  a  fini.sh,  but  that  the 
foreigners  are  persistent.

EXPANSION ! 


Great  Norlhern  May  Replace 

Elevator  A  With  a  Steel 

Structure. 

Elevator  capacity  at  the  head  of  the  lake 
is  to  be  again  Increased.  It  was  given  out 
yesterday  thnt  as  ."soon  as  the  immense 
steel  elevator,  now  building,  is  completed, 
the  Great  Norlhern  company  will  tear 
down  Elevator  A.  a  wooden  structure,  and 
on  the  same  foundations  erect  a  new  steel 
elevator.  The  capacity  of  the  old  elevator 
is  1.75<».<H>0  busheLs  and  the  new  structure 
will  contain,  when  completed,  2,500,(X)O 
bushels.  The  new  elevator  will  have  steel 
circular  bins  and  all  the  new  machinery 
th.at  characterize.-*  the  modern  elevator. 

The  Great  Northern  company  will  de- 
rive two  benefits  from  the  erection  of  this 
new  elevator— an  increase*!  storage  cajja- 
citv  and  a  rciluction  in  insurance  rates, 
th^  latter  being  especially  high  on  the 
present  wooden  .structure. 

RUSiriNG  THINGS. 
Vallejo.  Cal..  July  2.'..— The  force  at  the 
Mare  Island  navy  yard  is  l)eing  increased. 
Onlers  have  been  received  to  rush  work  oa 
the  gunboat  Alert  and  it  is  presumed  she 
Is  destined  for  work  in  Chinese  waters. 

CIPHER  WRITING. 
Among  the  clay  tablets  from  the  record 
chamber  of  the  Assyrian  kings,  discovered 
bv  Sir  Henry  T..ayard,  and  dating  from 
about  the  eighth  century  B.  C— reproduc- 
tions of  which  have  recently  been  pub- 
lished bv  the  British  museum— there  nie 
certain  passages  described  as  "written  in 
unknown  tongues."  which  may  be  a  spe- 
cies of  cipher,  especially  as  it  appears 
from  other  documents  that  "Interpreters" 
were  attached  to  the  staff  of  this  ancient 
library  for  the  purpose  of  deciphering 
diplornatic  communications,  says  an  ex- 
change. The  Spartans  are  said,  by  La 
Guilletiere,  to  have  Invented  cipher  writ- 
ing, it  having  been  the  practice,  when 
sending  out  an  officer  of  rank,  to  provide 
two  wooden  cylindrical  staffs,  exactly 
alike,  one  of  which  the  officer  took  with 
him.  while  the  other  they  retained.  When 
secret  messages  had  to  be  sent,  the  home 
authorities  wrapped  a  strip  of  parchpient 
round  their  staff  spirally,  wrote  their 
communication  across  the  edges  thus 
formed,  unrolled  the  parchment  and  dis- 
patched It.  The  recipient  applied  it  in  the 
same  wav  to  his  staff,  thus  bringing  th3 
broken  characters,  otherwise  unreadable, 
into  proper  sequence.

tration. It  is  but  reasonable  to  conclude 
that  the  laws  enacted  under  it  cannot  he 
in  force  in  Sulu.  Besides,  there  are  trea- 
ties with  England  and  Germany,  in  exist- 
ence since  18%.  whereby  all  goods  from 
there  countries  are  to  be  admitted  free 
of  duty  into  the  domains  of  the  sultan. 
The  American  government  had  assumed 
that  those  treaties  were  abrogated  by  tlie 
Paris  convention,  but  the  sultan  pointed 
out  to  the  government  officials  that  the 
Paris  instrument  contained  nothing 
at>out  it.  and  so  they  had  to  yield,  and  as 
a  consequence  free  trade  still  obtains 
in  the  Sulu  archipelago.  Xor  are  war 
taxes  collected  there,  the  sultan  being  de- 
cidedly averse  to  licking  revenue  stamps 
whenever  he  givs  a  bill  of  sale  for  any  of 
hi.t  numerous  slaves.  For  well  known 
reasons  the  administration  does  not  at- 
tempt to  enforce  these  laws  in  Sulu.  for 
if  It  did  it  would  have  such  a  rebellion 
on  Its  hands  that  the  Filipino  insurrec- 
tion would  pale  into  insignificance.  The 
fact  }»  that  the  sovereignty  of  the  United 
States  in  the  Sulu  archipelago  is  only 
nominal,  and  should  the  sultan  become 
tired  of  it  he  will  shake  It  off  without 
any   great   effort.     The   sultan   has   thus 


far  been  kept  quiet  by  the  administration 
paying  him  well  to  be  good.

Tl'.c  story  told  ill  u  ueu.-^  artii  le  in  TIi:- 
Herald  yesterday  in  regard  to  ihp  great 
scarcity  of  dwellinErs  in  Duluth  at  the 
present  time  should  be  the  means  of 
stirring  up  some  of  the  owners  of  vacant 
lot.'j  to  put  up  houses  and  thu.-(  secure 
some  revenue  from  their  property.  The 
population  of  Duluth  is  steadily  increas- 
ing, and  as  building  operations  have 
bten  practically  at  a  standstill  f.-^r  sev- 
eral years  past  it  is  but  natural  that 
there  should  be  a  scarcity  of  vivant 
huuses  of  a  desirable  character.  The 
tact  Is  that  there  is  not  a  modern  dwell- 
ing house  in  the  city  unoccupied  tod.iy, 
and  the  rental  agents  could  find  tenants 
lor  at  least  fifty  at  onee  if  the  houses 
uere  obtainable. 

Towards  the  close  of  last  winter  there 
was  considerable  talk  about  extensive 
Imilding  operations  this  summer,  and 
the  architects  and  contractors  were 
looking  forward  to  a  busy  season.  Put 
their  expectations  were  not  realized. 
F'lans  were  prepared  in  a  nuiTilx-r  of 
la.se.^,  hut  nothing  further  was  done,  the 
rapid  increase  in  the  price  of  materials 
:ind  labor  putting  an  embargo  on  all 
«>nterprises  of  this  character.  Tho  heavy 
advance  in  lumlicr  and  the  wages  of  cai- 
penters.  plasterers  and  other  worknn  n 
prevented  many  people  from  biiildiiv.; 
"iwi-lling.-,  while  the  high  ptice  of  stru<  - 
inial  steel  had  the  effect  of  preventinji* 
the  erection  «»f  liusiness  blocks  that  were 
contemplated.  In  this  way  there  was  a 
stoppage  of  building  operations,  and  the 
.great  Influx  of  people  coming  here  to  le- 
side  has  created  a  serious  problctu  that 
must  s<Hjn  l»e  solved. 

Recently  the  conditions  have  become 
more  favorable  for  those  desirous  of 
putting  up  liuilding.s.  The  price  of  lum- 
ber ha.s  declined,  and  the  wages  nf 
workingnien  have  become  settled  at 
l>vver  figure.'  than  some  of  the  contract- 
ors estimated  would  prevail  when  figur- 
ing on  contracts  earlier  in  the  season. 
Iron  has  also  fallen  in  price,  which  i.s 
favorable  to  those  contemplatin.g  th-' 
erection  of  business  blocks.  For  these 
reasons,  buildings  can  l.e  put  up  now 
much  cheaper  than  a  few  months  ago. 
Such  a  condition  of  thing.s — tho  great 
demand  for  houses  and  the  decrea.se  in 
the  price  of  matetial  and  labor— should 
be  the  means  of  bringing  about  a  large 
amount  of  liuilding  in  Duluth. 


The  roplv  made  liy 
.^ranager  AVarren  of 
toe  street  railway 
fo  the  resolution 
passed  recently  l»>' 
the  city  council  expressing  the  opinion 
that  all  transfer  points  should  be  "at  lh»» 
linint  of  divergence  of  the  several  lines" 
shows  very  clearly  that  the  changes  re- 
cently made  are  for  the  convenience  of 
those  traveling  on  the  cars.  The  com- 
plaints made  in  respect  to  the  new  tr..:.s-  ; 
fer  points  undoubtedly  were  cause'l 
a  tiitirough  understanding  of  i  .- 
in»w  i>ian.  The  people  had  been  so 
long  accustomed  to  the  old  transfer  poitUs 
that  the  change  caused  some  confusion 
.in  their  part  and  consequently  annoyed 
Them.  As  soon,  however,  as  the  public 
becomes  thoroughly  acquainted  with  the 
new  system,  the  complaints  will  probably 
rea.se  and  the  people  will  he  bcttir 
plea.sed  -with  the  new  plan  than  they  were 
with  the  old  system.  Manager  Warren  has 
pointed  out  that  the  company's  plan  is 
to  make  the  transfers  at  points  of  con- 
vergence rather  than  points  of  ilivergence. 
and  this  seems  to  be  a  good  idea.  It  Is 
certainly  more  favorable  to  those  traiis- 
lerring  from  one  line  to  another  in  the 
way  of  securing  seats  in  the  cars  to  whicn 
they  are  transferred,  because  they  trans- 
fer to  cars  when  they  are  practically 
empty.  There  does  not  appear  to  be  the 
slightest  foundation  for  the  claim  that 
ihe  company  gains  financially  by  the 
change  of  transfer  points.  Its  solp  ohioct

WHAT  MItiHT  MA  VMS  MEEX. 

How  many  persons  are  there,  asks  thi' 
Kansas  City  Star,  who  know  that  it  was 
enly  by  a  chance  that  China  did  not  be- 
come Roman  Catholic  in  ttie  thirteenth 
century.  Tf  Kublai  Khan  had  decided 
in  favor  of  Catholicism,  and  China  had 
become  Roman  Catholic,  the  effect  on 
the  history  of  the  world  would  have  been 
of  a  tremendous  and  decisive  char- 
acter. With  the  impetus  of  Eurooean 
diplomats,  teachers  and  military  adven- 
turers flockin.g  to  the  court  of  China  it 
inight  have  become  the  greatest  power 
in  the  world,  as,  indeed,  it  was  during 
Kuhlai's  reign. 

Kublni  Khan  was  the  founder  of  Pekiti, 
^vhf  igned  as  emperor  from  the 

China  sca  to  Volga.  Adventurers  fnm 
all  parts  of  Asia,  and  even  from  By- 
zantium—still the  seat  of  the  degenerate 
Eastern  Roman  empire— and  from  Ven- 
ice, served  in  Ins  armies  and  in  his 
court  and  government.  But  this  great- 
est of  etnperors  of  China  selected  Budd- 
hism as  his  favored  religion,  after  .i 
brief  attempt  to  secure  European  priests. 
His  history  is  interesting,  as  condense:! 
by  the  Star. 

Kublai  Khan  was  a  grandson  of  Geng- 
his Khan,  the  terrible  Mongol  conqueror. 
Genghis  Khan  devastated  Xorth  China, 
but  establisCied  nothing.  X<)r  did  Kub- 
lai. nor  Tamerlane,  establish  anything, 
for  the  Mongols  had  nothing  to  give,  and 
whenever    and    wherever    they    erected 

rnpircs.  they  derived  civilization  fnm 
the  conquered  peoples.  Thus  Kuhiai 
Khan  encouraged  Chinese  civilization, 
which  existed  before  him  and  continued 
after  his  Mongol  d>'n2sty  was  swent 
away.  Likewise  Tamerlane,  who  created 
a  brilliant  Mongol  capital  at  Samarcand, 
really  added  nothing  to  civilization,  for 
his  empire  br)ke  into  pieces  and  tlie 
Mongol  hordes  whose  military  prowess 
was  its  foundation  were  resolved  into 
mere  tribes  and  clans. 

The  inner,  or  "Tartar  city,"  of  Pekin 
was  built  by  Kublai  Khan  about  the 
years  1264  to  1267.  Up  to  his  successi  >n 
as  the  sovereign  of  the  Mongols  the  na- 
tive dvnasty,  called  Sung,  had  main- 
tained itself  in  Southern  China.  Fr>m 
1264  to  1279  the  native  Chinese  of  the 
South  withstood  the  Mongol  contiuer  >is, 
?nd  even  when  their  twin  capitals  on 
the  Han  river  were  taken,  they  kept  up 
an  intermittent  struggle  against  Mongol 
rule  for  half  a  century  afterward.  But 
Kublai  did  not  attempt  to  exterminate 
the  population  and  lay  ttie  country 
waste,  as  was  tiie  manner  of  his  bloody 
grandfather,  Gtenghis  Khan.  On  the  con- 
trary, he  proposed  not  to  be  emperor 
over  dead  enemies,  btit  ever  live  Chinese. 
He  patronized  Chinese  literature  and 
honored  Chinamen  in  his  administra- 
tion, although  the  first  ranks  of  the 
empire  were  filled  with  carpet-baggers 
from  many  lands  and  climes.  Marci 
Polo  was  one  of  these.  Kublai  estab- 
lished paper  money  and  post  roads  and 
devoted  much  effort  to  finding  a  suitable 
religion  for  his  people.  Tibetian  Bui- 
Jhism  was  the  result. 

The  great  feature  of  this  Mongil  dy- 
nasty—which changed  the  capital  of 
China  to  Pekin— was  that  China  re- 
mained Chinese.  In  1,'?68  a  reviluti.m 
led  by  a  native  Chinese  priest,  resulted 
in  the  expulsion  of  the  degenerate  suc- 
cessors nf  Kublai  Khan,  and  the  progeny 
of  the  Chine.se  Washington  reigned  until 
1644  as  the  Ming  dvnastv.  Then  came 
th'?  Manchu.^— another  Mongol  tribe— 
who  were  invited  to  enter  China  to  help 
put  down  a  rebellion,  and.  having  done 
so.  decided  to  .ctay.  They  established  the 
present  Manchu  dynasty.  But  China, 
which  had  remained  the  same  through 
the  reign  of  Kuldai  Khan  and  his  suc- 
cessors, did  not  change  under  Manchti 
rule,  and  the  Manchus  have  adopted  Chi- 
nese civilization  and  become  virtually 
Chinamen. 

If  the  Chinese  nation  has  thus  be^n 
as  lasting  as  the  continent  of  Asia  itself 


— so  far  as  records  go— it  is  reasonable 
to  assume,  concludes  the  Star,  that  it 
would  have  remained  Roman  Catholic 
beyond  the  power  of  change,  had  the 
religion  of  Rome  been  accepted  instead 
of  Buddhism.  Under  the  tutelage  of  the 
great  Roman  duirth  China  might  have 
attained  heights  of  power  and  influence 
surpa.ssing  anything  dreamed  of,  making 
the  whole  of  Europe  seem  puny  beside 
its  enormous  magnitude.  It  might  have 
attacked  Islam  and  tnrned  all  Asia  into 
a  Chinese-Roman  empire  and  spread 
across  North  Africa,  as  the  Saracens  did. 
But  China,  with  a  religion  of  peace  and 
isolation,  never  felt  the  great  passion  to 
proselyte.  If  it  had— if  China  had  under- 
taken a  crusade— what  would  have  been 
the  result? 


Dunbar,  Pa,,  can  boast  of  probably  the 
most  romantic  and  irrational  cow  that 
has  yet  come  into  public  prominence. 
There  Is  a  jutting  cliff  about  forty  feet 
high  in  this  pastoral  town,  which  is 
called  "lover's  leap"  because  an  Indian 
lover  once  did  a  sensational  flip-flop  into 
the  unknown  from  the  top  of  said  rocky 
crag.  The  cow  in  question  evidently  got 
tired  of  life  and  knew  the  legend  of  the. 
rock.  Sh(^  reasoned  in  her  bovine  way 
that  It  would  be  nice  to  take  a  short  cut 
to  the  state  of  cann'ed  beef  by  this  route. 
So,  one  afternoon,  she  climbed  up  the 
dizzy  eminence  find  slepjied  off  into  thin 
air.  The  fall  shook  her  up  some,  but  she 
Is   still   alive. 


Prince  Sheng,  the  director  of  telegraphs 
of  the  Chinese  empire,  has  playcfi  a 
somewhat  conspicuous  part  in  the  com- 
munications V>y  cable  between  Pekin  and 
the  powers,  lie  is  said  to  be  one  of  the 
most  capable,  intelligent  and  broad-mind- 
ed of  men  in  China.  He  lias  had  charge 
not  only  of  the  telegraphs,  but  of  the 
railways  also.  He  Is  head  of  the  Impcri.il 
bank,  a  jiosition  akin  to  the  secretaryship 
of  xhS  treasury. 


"The  trusts  hurt  nobody  and  should  be 
let  alone,"  said  Mark  Hanna,  and  Presi 
dent  McKinley  took  the  hint  and  never 
mentioned  the  trust  (luestion  in  his  speech 
of  acceptance.  Tho  people  will  never  get 
relief  from  the  cppressive  tiu>!.<  through 
Republican  legislation. 


The  evidence  in  the  Powers  trial  shows 
that  Republican  state  officials  were  in 
the  conspiracy  to  assassinate  Governor 
Goebel.  In  view  of  what  has  been  told  on 
tlie  stand.  Taylor  does  well  to  ke'  ji  nut

Out  in  Kansas  a  woman  has  been  ap- 
pointed coroner.  There  is  no  reason  why 
a  woman  should  not  make  a  first  class 
f  oroner.  By  the  way,  why  it  Is  that  in 
many  places  they  always  elect  physicians 
as    coroners? 


TELLOW  MAN  AMD  HIS  UND. 

Philadelphia  iTess-  Let  us  take  a  look 
at   cidna. 

Her  area  is  4,-)CS.7riO  square  miles,  lu- 
ratiier  more  than  one-twelfth  of  the  whole 
land   surface  <if  the  gU)be. 

Her  poiiulaiion  is  mven  in  round  figure.-,

Great  Britain,  France,  Germany,  Austria, 
Turkey,  Italy,  Norway,  Sweden,  Spain, 
Greece  and  Denmark,  we  still  have  ylacc 
for  the  ii.UW.lKJO  pouplo  of  Australia  and 
New  Zealand  before  a  sum  is  reached 
equaling    this   vast    nation. 

11  is  true  that  some  parts  of  China  are 
vastly  overpopulated,  but  this  is  by  no 
means  true  of  it  all.  With  three  times  tho 
area  of  British  India,  China  has  less  than 
twice  as  many  people.  With  a  population 
per  square  niile  tqualin;?  that  of  India. 
China  would  contain  over  7*JO,0O0,00O  souls. 
Yet  in  India  there  are  vast  jungles  ajid 
unoccupied  lands.  If  it  were  possible  to 
eonceive  of  Cliinu  being  populated  on  tiie 
same  scale  of  uonsitv  as  England— 32,t)00,tKiO 
to  51,000  square  miies— the  population  of 
that  country  would  number  2,yoO,<HW.(KM>.  or 
nearly  double  the  present  estimated  popii- 
lation  of  the  whole  world. 

Should  the  country  be  opened  up  with 
railroads  the  i)resent  population  would  un- 
doubtedly vastly  iiu  rease,  but  apart  iruiu 
this  the  opening  up  of  the  country  could 
easily  result  in  ways  unlhought  of  at  tliis 
lime.  Equipped  with  means  of  intertian.-ii 
and  the  modern  armament  and  methods  ol 
war— as  is  the  wish  of  the  Caucasian  so  ti 
equip  her— and  her  present  populatioii  in- 
formed as  to  their  strength  and  resources, 
she  could  readily  realize  her  pow^ij  put 
forth  the  energy  of  her  emintless  millions, 
liurst  like  an  avaiaiiclie  upon  Europe  ami 
ellKulf  it. 

Then  the  yellow,  not  the  white  race 
would   reign. 

The  partition  of  China  would  perhaps 
lessen  the  yellow  danger,  but  by  embroil- 
ing Ihe  white  nations  it  could  also  lirint; 
it  nearer.  No  Monroe  doctrine  oould  save 
us  then. 

And  yet  this  is  the  country  and  people 
that  tiie  administration  are  iisiny  as  a 
IKilitieal   plaything.

This  joining  ol  soul   unto  soul. 
And  Algernon  peeled 
Forth  his  roll  and  revealed 
A  "thou"   as  the  good  preacher's  dole. 

The  vows  of  the  two  hearts  were  spoken. 
The  pledges  of  true  love  were  made, 
The   wedding   was   ended 
The   gnests    were   all   blended 
Pa«t  the  altar  in  one  promenade, 
^Vhereby  each  in   the  unbroken 
Circle  some  token 
In  cash  or  preferred  stocks  was  laid. 

Ah  me.    twas  a  glorious  function. 

Tvovp  wasn't  there,  but  the  stocks 

That  the  two  stowed  away 

In  the  bank  next  day. 

T'ndcr  seals,  chains,  bolts,  bars,  keys  and 

locks! 
And  E\-angpline  cried:  "I've  Gotmillions" 
While    Algernon   cried:    "I've   Gotrox!"

ANSWERS  TO^nuERIES. 

To  the  Editor  of  the  Herald: 

To  decide  n  wager  would  vou  kindly 
an.swer  the  following  questions  through 
the  columns  of  your  paper:  Is  there  in 
circulation  an  English  coin  of  the  de- 
nomination of  one  crown?  Also  what  is 
the  intrinsic  value  of  the  gold  in  a  120 
gold  piece  accoriiing  to  the  present  mar- 
ket  price    of  gold?  Yours   respectfullv. 

J.  H.   CAMERON. 

Virginia.    Julv   23. 


The  English  crown  piece  now  in  circu- 
lation Is  a  silver  coin  and  is  worth  five 
shillings,  or  $1.21  In  Amerlrsin  money.  The 
gold  in  a  $20  gold  piece  is  worth  exactly 


CHINESE  ETIQUETTE. 

Thsy    Consider    Themsalvss 
Politest  People  on  E^rth. 

Turning  to  their  so;  iai  eharacteiistici^; 
w>^  find  that  the  one  thing  after  the  po.s- 
^:e.=:sion  of  the  thirteen  classicr;  on  which 
the  Chinese  specially  pride  themselves 
is  politeness.  And  truly,  if  national  re- 
finement is  to  be  moa.^ured  hy  the  mien 
and  carriage  of  its  people,  the  Chinese 
are  entitled  to  a  high  place  among  th-' 
children  of  men,  says  the  Baltimor« 
Sun.  A  Chinese  offieial  in  full  costume 
is  a  most  imposing  figure,  and  carries 
liimself  with  great  dignity  and  self- 
piis.session.  albeit  he  is  usually  .some  four 
or  five  inches  shorter  than  the  average 
.\mcrican.  In  this  respect  lie  owes 
much  to  his  long  dress,  but  more  to  the 
patient  study  of  an  art  now  almost  mo- 
nopolized aniong  Americans  by  aspirant.s 
to  the  triumphs  of  the  stage.  There,  is 
not  a  sip.gle  awkward  movement  us  the 
Chinese  gentleman  Ijows  his  visitor  into 
his  house  o  rsupplies  him  from  his  own 
hand  with  a  cup  of  tea  which  is  indis- 
pensable to  an  interviev.'.  Not  until 
his  guest  is  .seated  will  the  Chine.se  hoat 
venture  to  take  up  liis  position  on  tiie 
right  hand  of  the  formei :  and  if.  in  the 
ci'urse  of  an  excited  conversation,  either 
should  raise  himself,  however  slightly, 
from  a  sitting  posture,  it  is  the  boiinden 
ilutv  for  the  other  to  do  so  too.  No 
Chinese  gentleman  will  sit  while  his 
equal  stands.  Occasionally,  where  it 
is  not  intended  to  be  over- respectful  to 
a  vi.sitor.  a  servant  will  bring  in  the  tea 
—one  cup  in  each  hand.  Then,  stand- 
ing iiefore  his  master  and  the  guest,  he 
'.vill  cross  his  arms,  serving  the  guest. 
v,ho  is  to  his  right,  v.ith  the  left  hand, 
bis  master  with  the  right.  The  olijoct 
'if  this  is  to  expose  the  palm — in  Chinese 
the  heart— of  either  hand  to  each  recipi- 
ent of  tea.  It  is  a  token  of  fidelity  and 
respect. 

The  tea  itself  is  called  "guest  tea."  and 
Is  not  intended  for  drinking.  It  has  a 
more  u.seful  mission  than  that  of  allay- 
ing thirst.  Alas  for  the  "barbarian" 
^vho  drinks  off  his  cupful  before  ten 
v.ords  have  been  exchanged  and  con- 
iirnis  the  unfavorable  opinion  his 
Chinese  host  already  entertains  of  the 
manners  and  customs  of  the  West!  And 
yet  a  little  trouble  spent  in  learning  thi^ 
iiuaint  ceremonies  of  the  Chine.se  would 
have  gained  him  much  esteem  as  an  en- 
lightened and  tolerant  man.  For.  while 
despising  "U'estern  men  outwardly,  the 
(Chinese  grandees  know  well  enough 
that  inwardly  Western  men  feel  them- 
selves superior,  and  thus  it  comes  to 
]ia.ss  that  a  voluntary  concession  on  tho 
oart  of  Americans  or  Englishmen  or 
rrfnchmen  to  any  of  their  points  of 
etiquette  is  always  most  amicably 
acknowledged. 

To  return  to  our  mutton,  "guest  tea" 
is  provided  in  a  Chinese  interview  to 
be  u.^ed  as  a  signal  by  either  party  that 
the  interview  is  at  an  end.  A  guest  no 
.<ooner  raises  his  cup  to  hi.s  lips  than  a 
dozen  voices  shout  to  his  coolies  to  briug 
iTJs  chair:  so  too  when  the  master  of  the 
h.-)iise  is  prevented  by  other  engaements 
from  playing  anv  longer  the  part  if 
host  and  forthwith  the  guest's  chair  is 
calle^l  for.  Without  previous  warning- 
unusual  except  among  intimate 
acquaintances— this  .guest  tea  is  never  to 
be  touched  except  as  a  signal  of  de- 
parture. Strangers  meeting  in  China 
oiav  freely  ask  each  other  their  names, 
their  provinces  and  their  business  pros- 
pects. It  is  always  considered  a  com- 
pliment to  an  old  Chinaman,  who  is 
justlv  proud  of  his  years,  to  inquire  his 
age.  and  it  takes  the  curious  form  oi 
"Your  venerable  teeth."  >^ut  middle- 
a.fie^  Celestials  do  not.  as  .v  rule,  carv^ 
about  the  question,  and  their  answers 
•an  rarely  be  denpended  upon.  It  is  a!?j 
good  form  in  China  to  ask  the  number 
and  sex  of  a  man's  children;  also  if  his 
father  and  mother  are  still  "Ih  the  hall." 
1.  e..  alive.  His  wife,  however,  must 
never  be  alluded  to,  even  in  the  most 
Indirect  manner.  Friends  meeting, 
either  or  both  in  sedan  chairs,  stop  their 
bearers  at  once  and  get  out  with  all 
possible  expedition:  the  same  rule  ap- 
plies to  acquaintaces  meeting  on  horse- 
toacic. 


THE  LAGEY  ACT.

Aids  Slate  Auiliorities  In  Pre- 
venting Interstate  Ship- 
ments of  Game. 

Wa.shington.  July  25.— (Special  to  The 
Herald.) — During  the  last  session*of  con- 
gress a  law  was  enacted,  commonly 
known  as  the  Lacey  act,  which  placjs 
the  pre.servaiion.  distribution,  introduc- 
tion and  restoration  of  game  and  other 
l»irds  under  thi;  department  of  agricul- 
ture; regulates  the  importation  of  for- 
eign birds  and  animabs,  prohibiting  ab- 
solutely the  inroduction  of  certain  in- 
jurious species;  and  prohibits  interstate 
tratlic  in  birds  or  game  killed  in  viola- 
tion of  state  laws. 

The  secretary  of  agriculture  has  placed 
the  division  of  biological  survey  of  his 
department  in  char.ge  of  all  matters  re- 
lating to  the  preservation  and  imporia- 
tion  of  animals  or  birds  under  the  act, 
and  Dr.  T.  S.  Palmer,  the  assistant  chief 
of  that  division,  has  iminediatL-  charge 
of  the  issue  r,f  jierniits  for  the  importa- 
tions of  animals  and  birds  from  foreign 
countries. 

Attentiini  is  called  to  the  fact  that 
while  the  act  provides  fur  the  purchase 
and  distribution  of  biids,  no  appropria- 
tion is  made  for  that  purpose.  The  de- 
partment, therefore,  has  no  qua'l,  jdiea- 
sant.s.  or  other  game  birds  for  distribu- 
tion. 

The  department  issues  no  peiniils  for 
shippin.g  birds  from  one  state  to  another. 
In  some  states  the  board  of  fisli  and 
game  commissioners  is  authorized  to 
issue  permits  for  shipping  !»irds  for 
propagating  purpo.ses.  and  a  few  states 
make  exceptions  in  their  game  laws  in 
the  case  of  birds  captured  for  breeding 
purposes;  but  when  a  state  forbids  the 
exportation  of  birds  without  exception, 
interstate  commerce  in  bitds  f/om  that 
Slate  is  in  violation  of  the  Lacey  Act, 
whether  the  birds  are. captured  durin;^ 
the  open  seasons  or  whether  they  are 
intended  for  propagation  or  not. 

Person-s  contemplating  tho  importa- 
tion of  live  animals  or  birds  from 
aluoad  must  obtain  a  special  permit 
from  the  secretary  of  agriculture,  arid 
importers  are  advi.sed  to  make  applica- 
tion for  ))eimits  in  advance,  in  order  h^ 
avoid  annoyance  and  delay  when  ship- 
;-nonts  rearh  the  custom  house.  The  law 
tti>piies  to  single  mammals,  birds  or 
reptile.?,  kept  in  cases  as  pets,  as  well  as 
to  large  consignments  intended  for  pri>p- 
agation  in  captivity  or  otherwise. 

Permits  are  not  required  for  domesti- 
cated l»irds.*such  as  chickens,  duck^^, 
geese,  guiiiea  fowl,  pea  fowl,  pigeons  or 
canaries;  for  parrots,  including  cocka- 
toos, lovebirds,  macaws  and  perrakeets, 
Ol-  for  natural  history  spocimcns  for 
museums  or  scientific  collections.  Per- 
mits must  be  obtained  for  all  wild  spe- 
cies of  pigeons  and  ducks. 

In  the  case  of  ruminants  (including 
deer,  elk,  moo.se,  antelopes,  an-l  also 
camels  and  llamas),  permits  will  be 
issued,  as  heretofore,  in  the  form  pre- 
scribed for  importation  of  domestic  ani- 
mals. . 

The  introduction  id'  the  English  ■■\ 
European  house  sparrow,  the  starling, 
the  fruit  bat  or  Hying  fox.  and  the  mon- 
goose, known  also  as  the  ichnenmon,  or 
Pharaoh's  rat.  is  absolutely  prohibited, 
and  permits  ff  r  their  importation  v.ill 
not  be  issued  under  any  circuriistanci\>. 

ruder  the  regulations  prescribed  by 
the  secretary  of  the  treasury,  in  case  of 
di-rbt  a.^  to  whether  animals  or  l>irds  be- 
long to  prohibited  species,  or  sa-^PK-i.-n 
on  the  part  of  the  collector  of  customs 
that  such  species  are  being  entered 
under  other  names,  the  shipment  will  be 
iield.  at  the  risk  and  expense  of  the  im- 
f.orter.  pending  the  recei'd  of  special  in- 
structions from  the  departnie-u  of  agn- 
cuUure.or  until  examined  at  the  expen--o 
of  the  importer  i>y  a  special  inspector, 
designated  by  the  secretarv  cf  agricul- 
ture, and  the  identity  estabhsned  to  the 
•satisfaction  of  the  collector. 

Spe'Mal  inspectors  will  lie  desigiiatcd 
At  the  ports  of  Xew  York.  Boston,  Phil- 
ai^elphia.  Baltimore.  Washington.  Now 
Orleans  and  San  Francisco,  who  wiil 
examine  shipments  at  the  request  •  f  the 
owner  or  agent,  or  v.ho  may  1k'  con- 
sulted in  case  of  mi.=5understanding  be- 
twi  en   the  owners  and  officers     of     the 


customs.  These  inspectors  are  to  be 
designated  merely  for  the  convonieiice 
of  importers,  and  owners  or  agents  are 
under  no  obligations  to  employ  them, 
out  the  identity  of  the  species  must  b- 
o'^tablished  to  the  satisfaction  of  collec- 
tor=>  and  in  case  of  refu.sal  or  n".:;le-i. 
or  failure  to  obtain  the  permit  within 
the  specified  time,  delivery  of  the  prop- 
erty will  be  refused  and  immediate  ex- 
portation required. 

The  deliberate  shipment  of  surlings. 
or  English  sparrows  fiom  imp  .state  to 
anoib.er  is  now  a  violation  o/  law.  and 
renders  the  shipper  and  carrier  liaole  to 
the  penalties  provided  in  the  act.

DID   NOT   AVORK. 

John  Wannamakor's  recent  act  in  order- 
ing out  of  his  oftice  two  local  politicians 
who  tried  to  bulldoz.-  ban  led  the  former 
•■•oyernor  of  one  of  the  Western  states  to 
lell  a  story,  relates  the  Saturuay  Evening 
post 

"I  almost  believe."  he  said,  "that  Mr. 
Wanamaker  could  have  gotten  them  out 
■!>=  well  bv  giving  each  of  them  ome  of  his 
iiftieial  hand.^hakes.  When  be  was  post- 
master general  I  was  in  congress.  aiid 
went  to  see  him  a  great  m-iiiy  tunes:  in 
faet  he  had  more  ealls  than  anv  oilur 
member  of  the  cabinet  of  the  Harrison 
a.lministration.  The  way  he  received 
cyervbodv  was  most  satisfactory,  but  the 
thing  that  delighted  me  was  the  beaiitifni 
manner  in  which  he  «nt  rid  of  a  visitor 
His  farewell  hnndshake  was  conrtesv  and 
gen-aiitv  itself,  btit  at  the  same  time  it 
was  a  gentle  push  toward  the  door.  It 
was  done  in  such  a  manner  that  noV)0(ly 
fv-inli1  possibly  take  exception  to  it.  A 
while  afterward  I  became  sroycrnor  of 
mv  state.  T  had  seen  the  thing  wnrked 
so"  well  in  the  postmaster  general's  ofllce 
that  T  thought  I  would  try  it.  Of  course, 
vou  know,  when  the  legislature  meets, 
the  governor  nf  a  state  has  quite  a  few 
people  to  hanille.  T  practiced  a  little  on 
mv  wife,  and  thought  I  hnd  got  the  hang 
of  the  performance,  although  she  ex- 
nressod  her  doubts.  The  day  when  T  tried 
the  experiment  T  beg.nn  on  an  old  po'.itieal 
sunporter.  grasping  his  hand  firmly,  .mil 
with  mv  best  smile  gave  him  the  gentle 
push.  But  the  results  were  not  alt^- 
trether  what  I  had  boi'td.  He  gazed  at 
me  steadily  for  a  moment  and  then  said: 
"It's  all  right,  governor,  if  you  want  me 
to  go.  but  T  clon"t  want  to  be  thrown  out." 

"'Come  back  here.'  T  exclaimed,  and 
crabbed  his  hand  in  the  old  way.  anil 
frave  him  a  pull  toward  me.  Then  in 
orfler  to  remove  any  other  doubts  he  may 
have  had  T  made  bini  promise  to  take 
dinner  that  dav  at  the  executive  man- 
sion. It  was  the  first  .-md  Inst  t  mo  I 
fried  the  Wanamnker  handshake.  He 
can  do  it.  but  I  don't  believe  there  is 
anvbodv  else  in  the  world  who  hns  the 
subtle  genius  iieressary  to  perform  it  suc- 
cessfully."

Boston.  July  21.— (Spet-ial  lo  The  Her- 
ald.)— The    Afro- American    woman,    al- 
though   represented    from    the    earliest 
history    of      the    country,    vide    Phylli.-? 
WheatUy,  the  poet,  and  later  Edmsnia 
Lewis,  the  artist;  Mrs.  Harr>er,  the  poet 
and  novelist,  and  Mrs.  Charlotte  For  ten 
Grimki,  the  essayist,  will  not  be  a  noted 
factor  in  the  literary,  artistic  nor  scien- 
titic  life  of  America  for  many  years.    It 
is    time    she    were    coming    out    of    the 
higher   institutions   of   learning   in    fair 
numbers  and  with  the  average   record. 
Raddiffe.   Vassar.   Wellesley.   Smith— to 
.say   nothing  of   the   smailer  schools  of 
mere   local    fame— have   graduateil   and 
still    are   graduating   colored   girls,    but 
not  in  large  numbers,  it  is  true.    When, 
liowever,  it  is  considered  how  iom:iara- 
lively  recent  is  the  movement  for  higher 
education  and  how  relatively  small  and 
poor  is  the  colored   ijopulation,  and  vet 
again  the  fact  is  remembered  tha»  mo.-t 
Southern  colored  girls  go  t-.  the  univer- 
sities  of   the   South— Atlanta.    Fisk   and 
Lincoln— it   is   seen    that   the   record    in 
the  larger  colleges  is  most  encouraging. 
Kven  before  the  college  movement   the 
Afro-American  girl  exhibited  her  ambi- 
lion   and  energ>-   by   invading  the  high 
and  normal  schools  of  the  North  in  good- 
ly numbers.    In  short,  the  natural  desire 
of  the  race  for  educational  advancement 
has   been    most    marked.     It   has   been 
argued  that  this  educational  movement 
so  quickly  started  and   abundantly   en- 
couraged   immediately   after   emancipa- 
tion was  a  mistake;  that  if  the  lines  of 
industrial  r.ursuits  had  been  more  vig- 
orously  pursued,   the   present   status   of 
the  ra'ce  would  have  been  more  credii- 


ior  minds  of  the  other  racp,  and  is  effect- 
ed seriously  and  retarde<l  in  consequence 
Genius  may  need  no  stimulus,  but  abil- 
ity needs  an  atmosphere.  Enlarged  op- 
portunities and  a  happy  environment 
will  be  the  greatest  developers  of  the 
future.  The  restrictions  of  the  r>resent, 
while  hard  to  bear,  probably  have  iheii- 
uses:  they  are  encouraging  persistence 
and  are  giving  lessons  in  a  tolerance 
that  Americans  are  losing  fiom  their 
category  of  virtues.  They  are  building 
up  independence  and  breath  in  the 
character  of  the  Afro-Ameritan  wo- 
man. That  a  suitable  environment  will 
do  much  is  proven  by  a  few  cases, 
n.  tably  that  of  Mi.ss  Baldwin,  principal 
of  the  Agassiz  schools  <»f  Cambridge, 
who.  bv  a.ssociation  with  cultured  in- 
tellect=.'  is  developing  natural  gifts  of 
mind  and  spirit  in  a  marker!  degree 
The  spiritual  tone  and  intellectual 
beautv  of  her  essays  and  speeches  are 
delighting  a  large  and  increasing  circle 
of    admirers. 

There  is  one  American  condition  whictt 
makes  more  marked  the  truth  that  niucn 
depends  on  environment  for  develop- 
ment, or  lack  of  it.  in  literature,  art 
and  science.  There  are  many  women  ot 
di^'tinction  wtio  are  not  known  ti  be 
colored  without  being  held  back  by  race 
nrejudice,  and  fill  their  sphere  Mr  w.^at 
they  are— American  women. 

The  colored  women  rapidly  and  solidly 
are  preparing  themselves  for  participa- 
tion in  the  life  of  the  nation,  ^l^f teyer 
thev  have  gained  has  been  thrcugi 
much  suffering.  In  many  respects 
struggle  grows  harder,  sympathy 
interest  in  their  careers  is  dying 
with  the  old  friends.  They  must

There  never  was  a  stranger  delusion 
than  that  which  concerns  the  military 
strength  of  the  Chinese  empire.  In- 
stead of  being  the  mf  st  powerful  govern- 
ment in  the  world,  it  is  on^  of  the  weak- 
est. This  weakness  is  due  more  to  the 
policy  of  the  imperiiil  government  than 
any  other  cause.  Th-?  people  themselves 
are  as  brave  as  lions.  Time  without 
numbt-r  Chinese  mobs  have  attacked 
walled  places  and  been  cut  down  like 
grass  by  a  mowing  machine.  Time 
and  again  Chinese  armies  miserably 
armed  and  equipped,  unpaid  and  half- 
starved,  have  gone  into  battle  against 
superior  foes  and  been  swept  away 
like  vermin. 

The  fault  lies  wi.h  the  government 
and,  at  first  sight,  seems  mysterious  to 
the  observer.  But  a  careful  study  of 
the  political  and  social  conditions  of  the 
middle  kingdom  shoAvs  that  the  occupant 
of  the  dragon's  throne  has  not  been 
as  foolish  as  appears  on  the  surface. 

He   simply    has   chosen    the   lesser   of 
two   evils.     It    must    be    borne    in    mind 
that^  in  spite  of  more  than  two  centuries 
of    Manchurian    rule,    China    still    is    an 
inharmonious  and  heterogenous  country. 
The  governing  class   including  the  Man- 
churians      at   home   and  through       the 
eighteen  provinces,  does  not  exceed  ten 
millions;    the    Mongolians,    whom    they 
also   subjugated,    number  about    fifteen 
millions,  while  the  Chinese  proper  are  at 
least   three   hundred   and   fifty   millions 
strong.    The  government  is  living  above 
a  volcano,   and    for  two  hundred   years 
the  policy  of  the   imperial   cabinet  has 
iieen  to  encourage  i)eace  and  order  and 
to    discourage    all    warlike    virtues.     To 
carry  out  this  policy,  it  has  left  nothing 
undone  and  has  gone  to  lengths  that  are 
extraordinary  for  tneir  ingenuity.    The 
compulsory  wearing  of  the  queue  is  one 
example.     A  group  jf  men  tied  together 
by   their   queues    are   as   helpless    ^s    if 
handcuffed,  and  the  wearer  of  the  queue 
is  under  a  hopeless  disadvantage  against 
one  not  so  hampered.     Of  similar  nature 
is  the  .social  law  in  China  that  all  men 
shall  wear  their  finger  nails  long.  Every 
gentleman   ha.s  nails   an    inch   <»r   more 
In    length,    manicu 'ed    and    enl>ellished 
until    they    resemV»'e        prcn-ious    stones 
Chinese    exquisites    wear    thimltles    on 
all  ten  digits  to  protest  the  nails  from 
accident.     Men    with    nails    nnoe    than 
three  or  four  inche-?  long  are  looked  up 
to    with    admiratirn    and    resiiect,    the 
:-.ame  as  college  champion  athletes   are 
viewed   by  American  society.     It   is  im- 
possible for  a   man   to   be  athletic    and 
have  these  long  claws.     He  cannot  clasp 
his   hand   tightly,   much   less   grip   any- 
thing without  injui-ing  the  nails.     Simi- 
lar in  results  is  the  eustoni  of  wearing 
coat  sleeves  with    enormous  horse  hoof 
cuffs  that  come  a  foot  below  the  hand. 
They    must   be   pulled    up   and    held    up 
■when    the    wearer    does    anything.     In 
writing,  the  Chinaman  holds  the  brush 
vertically   and   resis   the   arm   upon   the 
table.     The       posit  on  Insures       writer's 
cramp    and    tends    to    make    the    right 
hand  stiff  and  rigid. 

These  things  acting  together  make  the 
arms  of  the  avt-ra.ie  full-grown  China- 
man weaker  than  those  of  healthy 
American  boys.  1  recall  once  seeing  a 
party  of  Chinese  gentlemen  play  a  ganitj 
ol  tenpins  with  some  European  diplo- 
mats. The  eontra-st  was  startling  an<i 
even  pitiable.  Tht  diplomats  were  men 
of  average  build,  uho.se  wrists  and  arms 
Would  not  have  oreasioned  comment  by 
their  size  and  strength,  l)Ut  alongside 
of  the  Chinese  players  they  seemed  per- 
fect Samsons. 

The  Chinamen  had  small,  slender  and 
weak  hands,  wrisis  and  arms  as  thin, 
white  and  bloodless  as  those  of  a  young 
gill   wtli   advanced   in   consumption. 

If  it  came  to  a  rough  and  tumlile 
struggle  between  ten  maniiarins  and 
one  healthy  American  youtn.  1  would 
wager  all  that  I  lad  iii.on  my  fellow- 
countryman. 

This  would  b'  bad  enough— but 
throughout  China  the  unwritten  law  is 
that  a  Chinaman  must  not  run.  box. 
wrestle,  r  'w.  nor  .ven  take  long  walks. 
They  are  all  cnitriry  to  etiquette.  They 
have  no  shooting  gall<  ries.  no  fencing 
masters,  no  riding  schools,  nor  riding 
masters,  no  boat  clui^s.  yacth  clubs  nor 
athletic  organizations  of  any  sort.  The 
educated  men  of  China  are  physical 
weaklings,  from  the  clerk  in  tlie  retail 
stoic  up  to  the  Tao  Tai  and  To  Tai  in 
the  official  mansion. 

With  the  soMiers.  things  are  much 
lietter.  The  only  real  troops  they  have 
are  the  Marichurinns.  the  army  which 
Li  Hung  Chang  accumulate*!  in  the 
eighties  and  earlv-  nineiies,  but  v.hich 
was  decimated  by  the  Japanese  in  their 
war,  and  the  f.x  enty-five  or  thirty 
thousand  men  wh  >  have  been  developed 
into  gjod  soldierp  by  Oerman,  P'nglish, 
French.  American  and  Russian  drill 
masters  in  the  past  five  years. 

If  China  depeiuied  up<ir  her  educated 
classes,  her  case  .vould  be  hopeless,  but 
they  number  but  ten  per  cent  of  the 
population.  Equ;  lly  useless  is  the  pau- 
per class,  including  under  this  head 
lepers,  beggars,  hieves.  opium  fiends, 
gamblers,  and  cfimmon  criminals.  It 
numliers  al>out  -ive  ])er  cent  of  the 
population.  The  remaining  eighty  per 
cent  is  the  true  proletariat— ignorant, 
superstitions,  wit  lout  hoj>e  or  ambition, 
but  brave.  hard> ,  strong,  healthy  and 
resolute.  When  this  element  supplies 
the  mob.  then  there  is  bound  to  be  catas- 
trophe. It  produced  one  insurrection 
ten  years  ago  in  Kuldja.  when  more 
than  one  million  ?ouls  i»erished.  It  pro- 
duced the  Tailing  rebellion  in  the 
fifties  and  sixt  es  in  which  between 
twenty  and  thirty  millions  lost  their 
lives,  and  it  is  tiose  of  this  class  wh<i 
are  in  the  Boxei*  movement  that  give 
the  affair  its  dangerous  character.  Yet 
even  here  the  government  policy  has 
lieen  lacking.  It  is  illegal  to  import 
weapons  into  China  and  illegal  to  sell 
firearms  to  or  in  he  country.  There  are 
supposed  to  he  one  in  the  possession  of 
the  masses.  As  a  matter  of  fact, 
throughout  Chinu  there  is  a  vast  supply 
of  weapons  so  fa  •  as  quantities  are  con- 
cerned, but  in  quality  the  supply  is 
miserably  insufficient. 

Among  the  weapons  reported   by  the 
various       consuls  are   fowling       pieces 
tower-muskets,   lipringfield   muskets 
1851,    Minie,    Enfield,    Springfield, 
ington,  and  Mar  ini-Henry  rifle.s 
Chester.    Sharp   and   Colt 


government  may  own  two  hundred 
thousand,  while  the  rest  are  the  pro- 
perty of  private  owners.  Their  other 
weapons  are  swords,  made  usually  of 
hammered  iron,  and  spears  and  bills  of 
almost  endless  variety.  The  shafts  an- 
of  wood  or  i>amboo  and  range  from  six 
to  ten  feet  in  length.  The  bead  or  pomt 
is  of  soft  iron  made  by  a  village  bla<k- 
smiihs.  The  simplest  weapon  is  a  scythe 
blade  fastened  t<.  a  pole.  A  pitchfork 
is  a  second  simide  weain.n.  Tthiral 
is  a  fish  spear.  A  fourth  is  a  pole  axe 
and  the  fifth  is  a  boat  hook.  A  sixth 
is  an  axe  like  the  battle  axes  of  the 
middle  age.  and  u  seventh  is  the  morn- 
ing star. 

rpon  these  os  types  are  made  any 
number  of  varieties.  In  the  average 
mo'',  from  five  to  ten  per  cent  will 
have  firearms  and  the  rest  will  have 
these  cumbrous  weapons  of  antiquity. 

This  is  funny  enough,  but  it  is  fun- 
nier still  when  it  comes  to  the  army. 
The  garrisons  at  the  treaty  ports  aie 
armed  with  firearms,  but  even  there 
there  is  a  large  number— usually  about 
twenty  per  cent— who  carry  umbrellas 
for  the  officers,  writing  material,  towels 
and  hand  basins,  spears,  swords  and 
axes,  gongs,  cymbals  and  clarionets. 
The.se  are^of  no  earthly  use  in  battle, 
and  are  kept  up  merely  because  their 
ancestors  did  the  same  things  a  thous- 
and years  ago. 

•  In  the  interior  the  proportion  of  these 
antique  soldiers  and  attendants  is  very 
much  larger.  In  Yunnan  and  Sz'Chuen 
it  is  said  to  be  seventy  per  i-ent,  and  in 
other  districts,  such  as  Hunan  and  Shan 
i.  it  is  aixiut  fifty  percent. 
The  Chinese  army  consists  of  four 
divisions.  First,  the  regiment.s.  which 
have  been  armed  and  drilled  according 
to  western  methods.  These,  as  reporte*! 
bv  Capt.  Biaun.  are  about  twenty  or 
i\\eniy-five  thousand  strong,  nearly  all 
of  whom  are  in  the  province  of  Chih-li. 
A  second  division  of  the  army  consists 
of  the  Eight  Banners.  The  soldiers  are 
known  as  bannermen.  They  are  sup- 
posed to  represent  the  descendants  of 
the  eight  Manchu  tribes  which  con- 
quer^^d  China  in  the  seventeenth 
century.  They  furnish  the  imperial 
guards  at  Pekiii  and  the  officers  of  the 
garrison  and  forts  throughout  China. 
The  trird  division  is  the  army  of  thf 
c.ie.-n  Standard,  and  consists  exclusively 
of  Chinese.  It  nunil>ers  officially  five 
hundred  thousand  and  it  supplied  th- 
fjarrison  throughout  China  proper. 

It  is  a  miserable  organization.  Tic 
uniform  is  a  red  cotton  cloth  mantl*' 
oil  whose  back  is  printed  what  to  th»- 
Europeans  eye  is  a  black  and  white 
circular  target,  it  i.-s  just  between  the 
slioulders.  st»  that  the  bulls  eyp  covers 
tne  wearers  heart.  The  idea  of  this 
curious  ornament  is  said  to  be  the  kill- 
ing of  the  man  in  case  he  turns  and 
runs  away.  The  fourth  division  of  the 
army  is  made  up  t»f  braves  who  are 
Hiilisilcd  and  discharged  whenever  re- 
quired.

This  in  itself  is  weak  for  so  vast  a 
country,  but  especially  when  it  is  re- 
membered that  communicati<in  in  tin-

are  charged  for  as  srddiers. 

The  L^utcli  c<insul  general  on  one  o<- 
casion  counted  the  garrison  in  the  main

or  five  thousand  working  m«-ii.  put  red

a  spear  or  any  other  weai'oii  which  may

Nearly  all  now  are  in  Chih-li.  and  l<i 
their  iiiimbers  must  be  added  the  Box-

Railroad  i  Work  Is  Furnishing 

Employment— Crops  Better 

Than  Expected. 


•There  is  no  need  of  any  man  ^oins 
AAithout  work  with  the  prest^nt  condition 
of  the  labor  market."  said  an  employ- 
ment agent  today.  "The  demand  for 
labor  at  thiis  lime  uf  the  sea<on  was 
never  better  than  it  is  at  prest»nt.  The 
demand,  howt-ver,  tomes  from  the  out- 
Slide,  there  belnjf  little  call  for  men  in  the 
eity.  Thus  far  this  month  we  have  had 
calls?  for  Ijut  ten  men  fur  contract  work 
here.  The  open  ins:  of  the  harvesting 
iteasnn  in  the  I);ikotas  is  already  b^-grin- 
ning  to  t>e  felt,  tiioujjh  thf  demand  frur. 
that  Sonne  is  smaller  than  usui!.  Har- 
v»stinK  in  the  lied  liiver  Valley  e-nintry 
will  he>;in  next  week.  Stran?;e  as  it  may 
seem,  the  demantl  to  us  for  men  is  not 
for  the  hiii'Vest  tieltls,  but  for  mm  to  go 
on  the  railroad  contract  work  nov.-  in 
progres.*  in  the  wheat  country.  I  sup- 
l-oie  this  eondition  is  itrought  about  by 
:Ue  demand  fi>r  harvesters,  the  men  on 
the  railroad  work  leavinj?  their  jobs  to 
}io  harvesting.  In  consequence,  the  eoij- 
tr actors  are  eompelled  to  pay  i  larger 
wage  to  hold  their  men.  The  railroaJ 
contractors  out  in  North  Dakota  are  now 
paying  *-  -*■  day.  while  harvesting  wages 
will  probably  open  at  from  $l..">tj  to  $1.7.'> 
a  day.  according  to  the  demand  and  the 
supply  of  labor.  Company  work  is  not 
paying  quite  as  mu.-h  as  contract  \\\'<k 
just  now.  the  average  being  al)Out  SI. 7.".. 
VVages  locally  are  about  $1.50.  and  at 
that  the  laboring  man  is  not  particularly 
anxious  to  lake  a  job  when  he  can  go 
out  of  the  city  and  pet  from  2.'i  to  50 
cents  a  day  m'ire  fi>r  his  lador. 

"We  have  a  steady  demand  for  men 
from  other  Western  points,  in  Wyoming 
and  Colorado,  for  instance.  There  is 
also  a  fair  de:nand  from  point*  east  of 
the  head  of  th>^  lake.  We  have  been 
supplying  men  for  contract  work  a 
llaiK-oik  and  many  other  X  «i  Ih.rn 
Michigan  points.  It  is  to  be  noti't-d  that 
tbe  men  in  search  of  work  'vould  ia£h>  r 
be  sent  west  than  east,  even  when  the 
wages  i.aid  are  the  same. 

"This  is  about  tbe  time  ot  li'.e  year 
when  the  rain  and  the  h'  at  in  the  wo.rJs 
brin^  ab'.ut  c..)nditijn*  i:r.comfortn'.<le  lo 
th-^  lumlier-jacks.  and  to  get  away  from 
the  heat  i-nd  the  nios«iuitoea  'Iwy  i.re 
bulking  for  w  urk  in  the  hc^rvest  lieida  of 
the  west.  We  are  piat  ing  a  great  many 
of  thi-J  c!as.«  ju«t  now.  Ther;,  agtin. 
there  has  lK?en  a  ilrop  ot  wages  for  work 
in  the  woods.  The  Wisconsin  I  igging 
companies  have  got  together  and  re- 
duced wanes  from  $:W  to  $2t»  a  .nonlh. 
Slime  of  the  companies  have  an  under- 
stamling  that  when  they  hire  a  man 
they  will  only  pay  him  at  the  rate  of  $20 
a  month  where  he  stays  but  a  month  or 
le.«».s.  This  is  for  the  purpose  of  getting 
men  that  will  stay  on  the  work.  Tiiis 
will  cut  out  all  the  "grub  testers,'  as  the 
men  that  go  on  a  job  t\>v  a  day  or  t>vo 
are  trrned. 

"The  demand  for  men  on  the  drives  is 
not  very  brisk  at  present.  Sinc^^  thw 
rains  a  large  nimiber  of  men  have  beea 
sent  out  for  river  work,  and  the  lemanl 
is  pretty  well  supplied. 

"One  ccndition  exists  thai  is  not  so 
favorable  to  the  men  that  wish  to  k^ 
West  to  work,  as  formerly.  The  rail- 
roads have  entereil  into  an  agreement 
not  to  give  the  $.">  flat  rate  to  all  Dakota 
points,  a  rate  that  they  have  always 
given  up  to  the  pre.sent  year.  This 
agri-ement  was  made,  I  believe,  because- 
of  the  prospects  fur  a  light  wheat  crop 
that  liave  existed  up  to  recent  times. 
The  prospects  now  are  much  better,  and 
tlieer  will  be  a  greater  demand  for  men 
for  the  harvest  fields  than  was  expect. -d. 
In  view  of  this  the  railroad  companies 
may  drop  the  agreement. 

"There  ^s  a  much  greater  scarcity  of 
labor  in  the  Twin  Cities  than  at  the 
head  of  the  lakes.  I  have  just  received 
a  letter  from  Minneapolis  which  says 
thai  men  are  not  to  i»e  had  for  any  kind 
of  work.  We  are  rarely  liothered  this 
way.  as  the  men  come  up  here  from  the 
Twin  Cities,  where  they  are  in  closer 
tiuch  with  the  great  amount  of  contract 
work  now  going  on  in  the  Northwest. 

"The  grub-testers  are  gettiti'?  pretty 
wren  weeded  out  now.  though  th  're  are 
plenty  .»f  them  left.  Flmployers  of  labor 
don't  want  them,  in  fact  they  will  go 
without  men  rathtr  than  lake  those  that 
will  remain  imt  a  day  or  two  with  them. 
■»Ve  can  sfiot  them  when  they  come  to  us 
for  work.  The  real  laljoring  man  ha.^ 
tnoney.  Do  yo\i  know  that  it  is  not  :.• 
strange  <iccunence  here  for  men  in 
search  of  work  to  throw  down  a  ten  or 
tvventy-doHar  bill  fr. >m  which  to  have 
their  fee  taken.  This  is  the  kind  of  men 
that  empb^yei's  are  looking  for.  The  fact 
that  they  h;nf  money  demonstrates  that 
they  belong  to  the  class  that  stick.?  to  a 
Job  and  gets  a  little  money  ahead."

MINT  DULUTH  PEOPLE. 

William  Betty  Finds  a  Large  Num- 
ber In  the  West. 

"The  number  of  Duluth  ixoub'  I  met 
in  Portland.  Ore.,  was  astonishing,"  said 
William  tJelty  yesterday  afternoon  when 
asked  about  his  four  w»'ek.s"  visit  in  the 
West,  the  time  beins?  principally  spent 
in  Portland  and  vicinity.  "I  stopped  on 
the  stret-t  there  to  talk  with  a  Duluth 
man  and  in  the  twenty  mijtutes  we  stood 
there  we  accumulated  a  crowd  of  Du- 
luth people  that  threatened  to  block  the 
sidewalk.  Peter  Patterson  is  there  with 
an  office  in  the  Oregonian  building.  He 
has  witli  him  an  old  Duluth  cruiser 
named  Brown  and  they  are  buying 
titrkber  for  a  Duluth  man.  Then  there  is 
C  S.  Barnes,  lormeriy  of  Barnes  & 
Cptun.  He  is  in  the  mining  business. 
I  also  saw  Jim  Hoijgs  and  he  looks  just 
the  same  as  evei.  He  is  investigating 
the  coal  minin^i  possibilities  out  there. 
There  is  considerabW'  ( oal  in  tliat  rotm- 
try  although  much  of  it  is  hardly  old 
•nough  to  use.  Will  Peyton  is  out  there, 
too.  looking  over  the  timber.  There  were 
a  numljer  of  others  who  have  at  one 
time  or  another  lived  here.  In  Taconia 
I  .saw  Frank  E.  Wyman  and  his  wife. 
They  happened  to  climb  on  the  same 
street  car  on  which  1  was  riding.  He 
likes  Tacoma  very  well.  I  do  not  blame 
him  for  Tacoma  is  one  of  the  nicest 
towns  on  the  coast.  It  is  a  good  clean 
town.  pr»-tty  and  \\  ith  a  fine  class  of 
people. 

"In  striking  cntrast  to  Tacoma  is 
."Seattle.  That  is  the  twughest  town  on 
thf  whole  coast.  It  is  terrible  the  way 
crime  holds  full  sway  in  that  city.  It 
it  nothing  to  find  a  man  dead  in  the 
gutter  wiih  ail  he  has  on  his  person 
gone.  They  .«o.metimes  find  two  or 
three  in  a  day.  A  man  almost  takes 
his  life  in  his  liands  going  alxait  in  that 
city.  Only  a  few  uays  before  1  was 
there  a  man  from  Portland,  Ore.,  well 
known  an<l  from  all  I  could  hear  of  ex- 
cellent nputalion  was  found  in  the  gut- 
ter in  Seattle  full  of  holes  and  with  all 
his  money  and  watch  gone.  The 
authorities  seem  powerless  to  cope  with 
the  evil. 

"In  all  of  the  coast  cities  everything 
is  crowded.  Hou.<«es  are  hard  to  get  and 
the  cities  are  full  of  people." 


Reports  show  that  over  fifteen  hundred 
lives  have  been  saved  through  the  use  of 
One  Minute  Cough  Cure.  Most  of  these 
were  cases  of  grippe.  croon,  asthma, 
whooping  cough,  bronchitis  and  pneumo- 
nia. Its  early  use  prevents  consumption.

TAKme  CRIBS  UP. 

Butler-Ryan  Company  Tows  Com- 
pleted Ones  to  Grand  Mara  is. 

People  who  looked  towarti  liie  canal 
last  evening  might  have  seen  outside  the 
piers  a  string  of  cribs.  There  were  four 
of  them,  or  rather  three  and  a  half  as 
the  contractors,  the  Butler-Ryan  com- 
pany put  it,  for  a  full  crib  for  govern- 
ment pier  work  is  100  feet  in  length 
and  there  is  350  feet  of  this.  These 
cribs  have  been  built  by  the  Butler- 
Kyan  company  for  the  Grand  Marais 
breakwater  and  they  are  to  be  towed 
up  there.  The  firm  has  been  waiting  for 
settled  weather  to  take  them  up  and 
concluded  that  this  week  was  good 
enough.  It  is  not  anticipated  that  it 
will  have  any  trouble  in  getting  the 
cril»s  up  there  but  if  a  heavy  sea  should 
suddenly  spring  up  it  would  make 
trouble.  The  loss  of  one  or  more  would  be 
an  unfortunate  thing  but  the  company 
decided  to  take  chances  on  that  when 
it  was  determined  to  build  them  at  Du- 
luth. It  already  had  the  yard  and  plant 
here  which  it  had  used  for  construe  ting 
the  cribs  for  the  substructure  of  the 
north  canal  pier  and  the.se  were  utilized. 
The  company  could  in  all  probability 
afford  to  lose  one  crib  rather  than  take 
the  plant  to  Grand  Marais  and  build 
the  cribs   there. 


COMDENSED  DISPATCHES. 

The  state  convention  of  the  Snrial 
Democratic  party  of  Michigan,  held  ac 
Sagmaw  last  night,  placed  a  full  state 
ticket  and  fourteen  pre.sidential  electors 
in  nomination.  The  thirty-two  delegates 
pre.^ented  resolutions  endorsing  the  can- 
didacy of  E.  V.  Debs  for  the  presi- 
dency. 

A  sensation  was  sprung  at  Hawthorne 
Park  race  track,  at  Chicago,  yesterdav 
by  the  announcement  that  the  "judges  of

from  the  Washington  park  officials  that 
they  have  ruled  J.  H.  (Texas)  .Smith, 
the  widely-known  horse  owner  and 
plunger,  oft  the  turf  on  charges  of 
bribery. 

At  Salt  Lake,  at  the  Salt  Palace  sau- 
cer track,  last  night.  Charles  and  Clem 
Turville.  of  Philadelphia,  took  a  full 
second  off  the  world's  record  for  one 
mile  on  a  motor  tandem.  The  mile  was 
made  in  1:33  flat. 

A  world's  record  was  made  yesterday 
at  the  Glenville  trotting  track,  at  Cleve- 
land, when  the  black  gelding  Coney,  by 
McKinney,  paced  the  second  heat  of  a 
race  in  2:02%.  This  is  the  fastest  heal 
ever  paced  by  a  hnr.se  in  hopples.

MAKE  IT 
POPULAR 

Plan  to  Have    Next    Bond 

Issue  Open  to  Small 

Investors. 


CAN  EASILY  BE  DONE 


Idea    Was    Suggested    to 

Mayor  Hugo  By  a  Work- 

Ingman's  Inquiry. 


When  the  city  issues  $110,000  worth  of 
bonds  for  th<?  purpose  of  building  an 
eleotric  plant  for  street  lighting  pur- 
poses there  is  a  proljability  that  the 
working  men  of  Duluth  will  subscribe 
for  mui'h  of  it,  and  the  citizens  of  Du- 
luth rnay  take  up  the  entire  issu"  with- 
out going  to  the  outside. 

Mayor  Hugo  has  a  scheme  to  thi.s  end. 
The  «ither  day  he  was  stopped  on  the 
street  by  a  working  man  who  wanted  to 
know  when  the  city  was  going  to  i.s.^ue 
any  more  order.x.  Tbe  mayor  replied 
that  city  orders  were  prai  tically  a  thing 
of  the  past,  and  the  working  man  was 
much  disappointed,  saying  that  he  had 
always  found  it  the  safest  and  most 
profitable  inve.stinent  outside  of  j-uttrnji 
money  in  nis  home.  This  set  the  mayor 
It  thinking,  and  several  days  ago  he 
■  uggested  that  steps  be  takan  to  float 
I  he  issue  with  Duluth  lapital.  and  keep 
all  the  interest  money  at  home. 

The  issue  would  draw  interest  at  4v2 
fir  cent,  the  interest  payable  semi-an- 
nually an.l  the  principal  payable  in 
twenty  years.  Two  working  men  and 
one  prominent  banking  man  have  pro- 
nounced the  plan  a  good  one.  and,  like 
the  mayor,  they  are  of  the  opinion  that 
the  Issue  could  easily  l)e  taken  up  a". 
home  on  the  |ioi>ular  .^ub.^cription  plan. 

The  bond  issuing  ordinance  as  it 
stands  at  present  provi*les  that  the  issue 
.~hall  be  In  denominations  of  $50.  $10'). 
$■"00  and  ?100».  It  has  been  suggested 
that  this  be  amended  so  as  to  bring  the 
denominations  down  as  low  as  $10  or  $20 
So  as  to  give  the  working  men  a  better 
chance  to  invest. 

The  whole  plan  of  the  city  officials  Is 
l.irgely  after  the  manner  in  which  the 
•government  floated  the  $JOO.OOO,000  Ixmd 
i.«sue  in  1SJ»8  to  defra./  v.ar  co.-^is.  This 
mon:«ter  isswi-  was  place^l  by  popular 
subscription  in  den<miinations  of  $20,  $ri0. 
$100.  $500  and  i^lOOO.and  in  thirty  days  up- 
ward of  a  billion  d"llars  was  offered.  The. 
city  oftioers.  and  particularly  Mayor 
Hu?-,o.  believe  that  the  proposed  issue 
would  be  floated  with  as  much  success, 
a'ld  all  the  money  would  be  kept  right 
here  in  Duluth. 

A.gain.  this  ity  has  ylwa.v.-  b;id  much 
t:oubIe  and  wrangling'  when  it  has 
placed  bond  issues  with  Kastern  syndi- 
cates. The  recent  $.^00,000  refunding 
1  I  nd  is.«ue  Is  cited  as  an  example  in  this 
instance,  and  it  i.«  believe<l  that  In  plac- 
ing the  issue  It  homo  it  could  be  ai-corsi- 
I>li.'5hed  just  as  readily  and  with  far  les.^ 
trouble  and  exnen.-se. 

Carpenters  Open  Meeting. 

The  carpentMS  union,  one  of  the  liirK<.~it

was  to  have  been  the  leading  speaker  of 
the  occasion,  but  In  his  absence.  William 
K.  McEwen  made  a  very  happy  address. 
President  A.'  W.  Jones,  of  the  Federated 
Trades  assembly,  spoke  also,  and  J.  H. 
Baker,  the  business  ageiTt,  told  uf  the  work

A  MOYIHB  BOCK. 

Phtnominon  That  Awtd  the  Niwark 
Bay  Fisharman. 

One  of  the  curiosities  of  Newark  bay  is 
the  Moving  Rock,  which  is  now  to  be  seen 
about  200  yards  off  shore  from  the  upper 
end  of  Greenville.  X.  J.  It  Is  a  huge  af- 
fair, weighing  many  tons,  and  the  peculi- 
arity about  it  is  that  every  now  and  then 
it  changes  its  location. 

The  Moving  Rock  has  not  moved  now  for 
several  months,  and  can  be  seen  every  day 
at  low  tide.  About  a  year  ago,  however, 
it  was  not  visible,  and  in  fact  for  several 
months  before  it  had  been  seen  at  inter- 
vals onlv,  and  every  time  in  a  new  place. 
The  Moving  Rock  was  a  great  puzzle  to 
the  baymen  for  many  years,  but  they  be- 
lieve now  that  they  have  solved  the  mys- 
tery of  its  migatory  habits. 

Attention  was  first  attracted  to  the  rock 
by  ani  adventure  which  a  bay  fisherman 
had  with  his  eel  pot  and  set  lines.  He  set 
them  near  the  rock  one  night,  but  when  he 


looked  for  them  in  the  morning  not  one 
could  he  find.  It  puzzled  him  sorely,  but 
nevertheless  he  repeated  the  performance 
with  more  lines  and  j)ots  next  night.  What 
was  hi.s  surprise  on  the  following  morn- 
ing when  he  went  out  to  the  rock  to  find 
not  the  lines  and  things  he  had  set  thf 
night  before,  but  those  he  had  set  on  trie 
night  previous.  Of  course,  he  was  more 
puzzled  than  ever,  but  he  gathered  up  his 
good  catch  of  fish  and  eels  and  went 
home.  There  was  something  so  uncanny 
about  the  whole  business  to  the  simple 
mind  of  the  fisherman  that  he  could  not 
sleep. 

The  other  baymen  were  inclined  to  doubt 
the  storv.  but  at  the  same  time  they  be- 
came suspicious  of  the  rock,  and  kept  a 
weather  eve  on  it.  Finally,  as  time  went 
on,  thev  became  convinced  that  the  rock 
was  not  an  ordinary  one  at  all,  but  a 
thing  of  life,  that  could  move  about  the 
bay  at  will.  Then  the  more  timid  ones 
among  them  began  to  give  the  rock  a  wide 
berth,  and  all  the  wealth  of  the  South 
African  diamond  mines  would  not  have 
been  suffioient  to  get  them  to  row  out  near 
the  rock  at  night. 

The  children  of  the  baymen  were  regaled 


with  wierd  storieg  of  the  wonderful  rock 
that  w^ould  have  done  credit  to  Mun- 
chausen. One  of  the  old  "water  dogs." 
who  had  settled  dcwn  on  the  shores  of  the 
bay  tu  spend  his  declining  years,  took 
more  than  ordinary  Interest  In  the  peram- 
bulating rock,  probably  because  he  iiad 
nothing  better  to  do.  This  old  sea  dog 
was  a  great  oracle  among  the  baymen. 
because  he  had  sailed  before  the  mast 
so  many  times  around  the  world 
declared  It  made  his  head  swim,  so  he  had 
to  give  it  up.  He  would  not  believe  the 
stories  about  the  rock  at  first,  but  finahy. 
by  his  own  observitlon,  he  was  convinced 
that  the  rock  did  move. 

After  much  deep  thought  the  oracle  said 
that  he  had  never  seen  anything  of  the 
kind  but  once  befcre,  and  that  was  in  the 
Bay  of  Biscay,  many  years  ago.  He  then 
spun  a  yarn  that  so  frightened  the  more 
timid  baymen  th£.t  they  wanted  to  sell 
their  boats  and  go  out  of  the  fishing  busi- 
ness altogerther.  He  declared  that  he  did- 
n't believe  the  thing  was  a  rock  at  all. 
but  some  te?rrible  riarine  monster  that  had 
gone  into  the  bay  or  repairs.  It  was  pos- 
sibly a  huge  dev  Iflsh  that  had  lost  its 
arms  or  feelers,  ard  was  waiting  for  them 


to  grow  out.  When  this  occurred,  the  oM 
oracle  declared  the  monster  would  drive 
every  living  thing.  Including  the  fisher- 
men, out  of  the  bay. 

The  oracle's  tale  would  not  hold,  and  it 
was  found  that  the  rock  was  a  rock  all 
right,  and  nothing  else. 

The  question  of  how  It  was  moved  about 
from  one  place  lo  another  was  again  dis- 
cussed, and  many  theories  were  advanced. 
One  thing  the  baymen  noticed,  and  that 
was  the  rock  did  Ita  moving  almost  alto- 
gether in  the  winter  months.  A  scl^nti.st 
who  happened  to  visit  Greenville  gave  thw 
subject  considerable  study,  and  with  the 
aid  of  the  more  observant  baymen  finally 
reached  a  conclusion  in  relation  to  th« 
Moving  Rock  that  is  now  generally  ac- 
cepted as  a  solution  of  the  mystery.  It  is 
believed  that  It  is  the  Ice  that  moves  the 
rock  about.  The  bay  gets  pretty  full  of 
ice  at  times,  and  it  Is  thought  that  It  up- 
heaves the  rock  from  Its  bed.  Then,  when 
the  Ice  floe  begins  to  drift  with  the  tide  it 
carries  the  rock  with  It.

London,  July  26.— While  the  latest  im- 
pression derived  from  the  array  of  con- 
flicting telegrams  from  the  far  east  is 
that  a  portion  of  the  foreign  colony  at 
Pekin  may  have  escaped  slaughter  until 
a  recent  date,  the  general  consensus  'Tf 
the  best  informed  opinion  of  Europt- 
.seems  to  continue  to  favor  the  accept- 
ance of  the  worst  news,  and  promi  t 
action  thereon,  the  contention  Ijting  that 
the  only  possibility  of  definitely  ascer- 
taining the  truth  is  by  the  allied  com- 
manders inquiring  at  Pekin.  Judgiu,? 
from  the  news  from  Tien  Tsin,  however, 
recording  divisions  among  the  odmirals 
there,  the  prospects  for  a  speedy  ad- 
vance .=eem  to  be  endangered  unless  the 
gcvernments  speedily  agree  upon  a  su- 
preme leader. 

Telegrams  from  Shanghai  report  that 
Li  Hung  Chang^has  taken  up  his  abode 
at  the  ar.senal  as  a  measure  of  precau- 
tion. It  is  not  stated  whether  he  feared 
attack  by  Chine.se,  or  attempts  of  th" 
powers  to  curtail  his  liberties.  Appa- 
lently  the  foreign  consuls  at  Shanghai 
have  informed  the  viceroy  that  unles« 
he  obtained  definite  dispatches  from 
Pekin  within  five  days  they  would  con- 
clude the  ministers  had  been  murdered, 
ond  act  accordingly. 

Itepurts  are  recurrent  that  a  numl)er 
>>f  misaionarie.s,  either  American  or  Eng- 
lish, have  been  murdered  in  Shr^nsi.  One 
of  the  dispat<hts  from  Shanghai,  pub- 
lished here  today,  says: 

"The  Canadian  missionaries  who 
escaped  from  Ho-Xan  had  a  terrible  ex- 
perience en  route  here.  The  natives 
everywhere  were  hostile.  The  ral>i3le 
atacked  the  refugees,  lieat  them  and 
tore  the  clothes  from  their  backs.  The 
ladles  suffered  cruel  indignities." 

The  dispatch  continues: 

"Canton  continues  comparatively 
quiet.  The  natives,  however,  are  be- 
ginning to  fear  that  the  reinforcements 
arriving  at  Hong  Kong  intend  to  attack 
the  Boguf  foits  and  occupy  the  city. 
The  military  mandarin  has  asked  the 
colonial  secretary  at  Hong  Kong  for  as- 
surances that  Great  Britain  djes  not 
intend  to  take  Canton." 

A  dispatch  receved  here  from  Yoko- 
hama states  that  the  Japanese  division 
will  all  be  landed  at  Taku  by  July  31, 
ami  will  reach  Tien  Tsin  Aug.  3. 

The  legislature  of  New  South  Wales 
has  resolved  to  disi)ati  h  a  military  con- 
tingent to  join  the  imperial  troops  in 
China.

Wasliington  Circles  Regard 

Canton  Viceroy's  Edict 

as  Ominous. 


Washington,  July  26.— Xotwithstand- 
ings  sins  of  activity,  the  state  depart- 
ment had  nothing  this  morning  of  Inter- 
est touching  the  Chinese  situation.  The 
navy  department  sent  over  a  copy  of 
the  dispatch  received  from  Admiral 
Remey,  making  some  change  in  the 
marine  body,  and  Minister  Wu  came 
down  and  asked  for  half  an  hour  with 
Acting  Secretary  Hill,  but  he  declared 
that  he  had  nothing  from  home,  though 
he  was  confident  of  important  develop- 
ments in  the  immediate  future. 


The  imperial  edict  promul- 
gated yesterday  by  Viceroy 
Tak,  at  Canton,  has  left  a  dis- 
agreeable impression  here.  De- 
spite the  Chinese  minister's 
view  to  the  contrary,  this  edict 
is  looked  upon  as  like  a  prelim- 
inary to  a  formal  declaration  of 
war,  and  as  only  one  step  to- 
ward securing  time  to  move 
Chinese  forces  into  a  better 
position  for  defense  against  the 
internationals. 


The  notice  that  came  to  the  state  de- 
partment that  Korea  is  free  of  the  Boxer 
agitation  was  well  received,  for  it  is  be- 
lieved Russia  will  thus  be  enabled  to 
spare  many  more  Chinese  troops  from 
her  Siberian  army  for  use  in  the  inter- 
national column. 


RIOTS  IN  SHAN  SI. 

Missions  Destroyed  But  Missionaries 
Escape  to  the  Country. 

London,  July  26.— A  dispatch  from  mi;;- 
sionary  sources,  dated  Shanghai,  July 
26.  .says:  { 

"Rioting  has  broken,  out  at  Ai-Yuen- 
Fu,  the  capital  of  the  province  of  Shan- 
Si.  There  are  no  details.  Rioting  has 
also  occurred  at  Huai-Lih,  south  of  Chi- 
lli. All  the  missions  have  been  de- 
stroyed. Our  friends  safely  escaped  to 
the  country,  but  are  still  in  danger."

CAUSED  HO  SURPRISE. 

Invaliding    of    Meade    Was    Not 
Unexpected. 

Washington.  July  2t;.— The  fact  th.it 
C(d.  Meade,  wh  >  was  in  command  of  the 
marines  at  Taku,  hc.s  been  invalided 
tiome,  has  created  no  surprise  among 
his  comrailes  of  the  navy  who  knew  him 
best.  While  a  man  of  indomitable  will. 
Col.  Meade's  vitality  has  been  below  par. 
and  it  has  been  an  almost  constant 
struggle  for  him  to  perform  his  duties. 

C  )l.  Meade  has  been  the  rankins 
marine  officer  at  the  Cavite  naval  station 
since  its  establishment.  His  departure 
from  Taku  will  leave  I.iieui.  Col.  Coolidge 
of  the  Ninth  infantry  in  command  of 
the  American  land  forces.  Tlie  latter's 
command,  however,  will  be  only  tem- 
porary, as  the  arrival  of  Gen.  Chaftee 
within  the  next  few  days  will  place  him 
in  supreme  command.  Maj.  Waller, 
whj  is  now  the  ranking  marine  officer, 
also  will  give  way,  uiion  the  arrival  of 
the  Grant,  to  Maj.  Biaael,  who  is  iis 
senior. 

Maj.  Biddel  has  with  him  on  tSie  Grant 
two  companies  of  the  Fourth  battalion 
of  marines,  the  fir«t  detachments  of 
marines  which  have  gone  direct  from 
the  ITnited  States  ti  the  scene  of  the 
trouble  in  China.  The  acquisition  of 
these  235  marines  will  bring  the  total 
force  of  marines  close  up  to  700. 

Owing  to  the  largely  increased  force 
of  marines  and  the  reinforcements  which 
are  on  their  way  from  the  United  States, 
Col.  William  S.  Muz.  who  is  nnw  sta- 
tioned at  the  Mare  island  navy  yard, 
San  Franci.sco,  may  be  assigned  to  com- 
mand them. 

The  navy  department  is  very  much 
gratified  to  hear  from  Rear  Admiral 
Remey  direct  a  denial  "f  the  imputation 
that  American  marines  participated  in 
anv  way  in  the  burning  and  looting  of 
Tien  Tsin  after  its  capture  by  tJhe  allle.-*. 
However,  this  has  been  understood  tj  bo 
the  fact  from  the  first. 


GOLD  DEMOCRATS. 

National  Committee  Elects  Charles 
Tracy  Chairman. 

Indianapolis,  July  26.— At  the  business 
meeting  of  the  national  committee  of 
the  National  Democratic  party  today, 
Charles  Tracy,  of  New  York,  was  elected 

chaihman  to  succeed  George  Foster  Pea- 
body,  of  New  York,who  resigned  be-

establish  headquarters  in   Indianapolis. 

The  committee  announces  that  it  will 
caVry  on  a  vigorous  campaign  in  the 
interest  of  "sound  money."  Authority 
was  given  the  new  chairman  to  fill  the 
vacancy  on  the  exe<  utive  committee 
caused  by  the  resignation  of  W.  B. 
Haldeman,  of  Louisville,  and  also  the 
vacancy  on  the  national  committee 
caused  by  the  resignation  of  Lieut.  R. 
Ehrlck.  of  Colorado. 

Mr.  Haldeman  declared  his  intention 
to  support  and  vote  for  W.  f.  Bryan. 

NO  DEXriSION. 

Chicago,  July  26.— At  noon  the  confer- 
ence, at  which  practically  all  the  ste°l 
and  iron  interests  of  the  country  were 
represented,  adjourned  until  10  a.  m.  to- 
morrow. 

President  Gary  stated  that  nothing 
was  decided  upon.  Important  action  is 
expected  tomorrow. 


ROBERTS' 
NEWTACK 

He  Changes  His  Metliods  and 

Will  Keep  His  Column 

In  Motion. 


A  PIGNIG  FOR  BOERS 


Were  Having  Tilings  Their 

Own  Way  While  He 

Halted. 


New  York,  July  26. — A  dispatch  to 
the  Tribune  fron  London  says:  The 
campaign  in  South  Africa  has  taken  an 
unexpected  turn.  Lord  Roberts'  army 
has  advanced  to  Bronkhorstspruit, 
about  half  way  between  Pretoria  and 
Middleburg.  He  is  leaving  Pretoria  and 
Johannesburg  under  a  strong  guard  and 
acting  on  the  theory  that  the  Boers 
profit  by  his  halts  and  lose  whenever 
his  columns  are  In  motion. 

The  Boers  have  attempted  to  thwart 
his  lilans  by  raids  west  and  north  of 
Pretoria,  and  to  hold  him  back  by  hang- 
ing on  his  flanks,  just  as  they  did  when 
he  set  out  from  Bloemfontein  to  Pre- 
toria. 

He  has  again  pushed  ahead  and  is 
striking  for  the  gateways  to  the  Lyden- 
berg  district,  leaving  Lord  Methune  and 
Gen,  Baden-Powell  to  pursue  Gen.  De 
Wet  across  the  vaal. 

It  is  not  clear  whether  Gen.  De  Wit 
has  made  a  fresh  haul  of  200  prisoners 
belonging  to  the  Welsh  Fusiliers  near 
liooder  val,  or  whether  this  incident  is 
an  amended  form  of  the  previous  ac- 
count of  the  capture  of  100  Highlanders. 

The  situation  is  most  confusing  and 
vetcians  are  shaking  their  heads  over 
i!.,  but  apparently  Lord  Roberts  has 
decided  that  the  best  method  of  sup- 
pressing guerrilla  warfare  is  to  follow 
the  railway  toward  the  entrance  of  the 
Lydenburg  district  and  to  cut  off  Boer 
communications  with  the  only  remain- 
ing base  of  supplies  at  Delagoa  bay.  The 
fdan  is  a  bold  one,  since  commandoes  of 
raiders  are  prowling  about  in  many 
directions,  but  Lord  Roberts  counts, 
without  doubt,  upon  effective  support 
from  Sir  Redvere  Buller,  and  also  upon 
the  paralyzing  effect  of  a  renewal  of  the 
advance  toward  Mr.  Kruger's  last 
stronghold. 

ROBERTS  AT  BALMORAL. 

Boers  Are  Defeated  In  a  Fight  Near 
There. 

London,  July  26.— Lord  Roberts  re- 
ports  to  the  war  office,   under  date  of 

Balmoral,  July  25.  as  follows: 

"We  marched  here  yesterday  without 
seeing  the  enemy.  The  Boers,  on  July 
24,  engaged  French  and  Hutton  six 
miles  south  of  Balmoral.  While  Ander- 
son's mounted  infantry  attacked  the 
Boers  right.  French  made  a  turning 
movement  around  their  left.  Seeing 
their  retreat  threatened,  the  Boers  broke 
and  fled.  French  and  Hutton  followed, 
atid  proposed  to  cross  Oliphant's  river 
today  at  Naauwport.  Our  casualties 
were  one  wounded."

BOER  VICTORY. 

Qive     Hunter    the    Worst 

of    It    In  a  Hard 

Fight. 

London,  July  26. — Lord  itoberts  re- 
ports to  the  war  office  today  that  Gen. 
Archibald  'Hunter's  command  was 
heavily  engaged  July  24  and  25  in  the 
hills  south  of  Bethlehem.  The  Boers 
were  strongly  intrenched  and  fought 
stubbornly  throughout  the  24th,  and 
compelled  the  Briti.sh  to  retire  from 
some  of  their  positions  with  about  fifty 
casualties. 

At  last  accounts.  Gen.  Hunter  had 
woVked  around  to  Brand  water  basin,  in 
the  rear  of  the  Boers,  while  Gen.  Hector 
MacDonald,  and  Gen.  Bruce  Hamilton 
were  Ijlocking  outlets  on  the  front  of 
the  federals,  who  had  evacuated  their 
position  at  Witnek.

Mayor  Capdeviellc  communicateil  with 
Governor  Heard,  who  will  cail  out  the

New  Orleans,  La..  July  26.— All  last 
night  and  up  to  3:3)  this  morning  mobs 
ran  riot  through  th  s  city  on  a  hunt  for 
negroes,  and  those  i  nfortunates  who  fell 
into  tli.eir  grasp  we  -e  either  killed  or  so 
badly  wounded  that  they  were  left  for 
dead.  After  the  mob  got  started  the 
negroes  became  terrorized  and  took 
shelter  in  their  homes  and  the  outhouses 
of  white  people  who  protected  them.  S3 
it  was  only  the  uisuspecting  and  in- 
offensive negroes  wlio  were  the  victims. 

The  police  were  powerless.  As  fast  as 
they  apparently  disjiersed  a  crowd  in  one 
.section  it  only  reformed  and  moved  t3 
some  other  point  to  continue  its  devilish 
work.  The  mobs  were  composed  almost 
entirely  of  boys  under  21  years  of  age, 
and  they  had  no  leaders,  but  acted  on  a 
common  impulse.  The  movement  start- 
ed from  a  gatherin;?  of  men  at  the  Lee 
statue,  corner  of  St.  Charles  avenue 
and  Howard  street.  When  ordered  to  dis- 
perse the  crowd  mjved  up  St.  Charles 
avenue,  gathering  as  it  moved,  and 
gradually  became  infiamed  to  the  point 
of  des:neratlon.  It  was  not  until  after 
they  had  stopped  in  Morrison  square,  on 
Washington  avenue  and  Franklin  street, 
near  the  scene  of  the  a.ssassination  of 
Capt.  Day  and  Officer  Lamb,  that  they 
listened  to  a  speech  from  a  man  hailing 
from  Kenner,  and  then  started  out  to 
waylay  the  negroes. 

Most  of  the  colored  population  had 
taken  warning  from  the  excitement  -jf 
the  night  before  ard  kept  indoors,  but 
there  were  some  returning  to  their 
horp.es  from  work,  and  it  was  one  of 
these  who  was  the  trst  victim.  He  was 
in  a  crowded  Henry  Clay  avenue  car, 
near  the  square,  and  when  the  mob  saw 
him  they  rushed  for  the  car  and  dragge.i 
him  out,  firing  one  shot  into  the  car. 
He  turned  out  to  be  Alex  Ruffin.  a  Pull-  ^ 
man  car  porter,  ami  he  was  badly  used 
up.  He  was  cut  aid  shot  and  beaten 
over  the  head.  There  was  another  negro 
wits*  him  in  the  car  who  hid  under  the 
seat,  and  after  the  t  ar  had  started  they 
discovered  him,  but  they  could  not  catch 
him. 

J.   Cluny,   the  corductor  of  a  Peters 
avenue     car,   was     ;?hot   in  the  foot  on 
Franklin    street    ar  d    the    car    riddled  i 
witi»  bullets.     F,  G    Davis,   the  motor- ' 
man  on  the  same  car,  was  also  stiot  in 


the  foot.  Frank  Stieppard,  a  w'hite  man 
who  was  in  the  crowd,  got  a  bullet 
through  his  right  arm. 

Coming  down  to  Jackson  avenue,  they 
met  T.  P.  Sanders,  the  colored  porter  of 
Post  &  Bowles'  insurance  agency.  He 
had  heard  the  indiscriminate  shooting 
'ind  steuoed  out  of  his  gate  to  see  what 
it  was  about.  He  stepped  into  the  arms 
of  the  mob  and  they  made  short  woik 
of  him.  They  stabbed  him,  shot  him  in 
the  back  and  took  his  watch  away  from 
him.    They  left  'him  for  dead. 

A  dozen  or  more  of  the  mob  went  out 
further  into  the  rear  of  the  town  and 
met  a  negress  named  Esther  Fields 
standing  in  tier  door  and  brutally  beat 
her. 

The  main  crowd  continued  on  down- 
town, heading  for  the  parish  prison. 
They  were  met  a  block  away  by  a  squad 
of  police,  who  stopped  them.  Then,  they 
began  breaking  into  the  second-hand 
stores  on  Rampart  street,  in  that  neigh- 
borhood, hunting  for  arms  and  ammuni- 
tion. The  police  made  a  demonstration 
and  drove  them  off. 

After  lingering  around  Rampart  street 
for  an  hour,  the  mob  divided,  one  section 
going  down  toward  town  and  the  other 
starting  back  uptown.  The  latter  crowd 
started  for  the  new  basin  in  the  vicinity 
of  the  Illinois  Central  depot,  as  that  is 
a  popular  rendezvous  for  negroes.  Be- 
fore starting,  they  indulged  in  a  little 
pistol  play  and  wounded  Oswald  Mc- 
Mahon, a  12-year-old  boy.  in  the  leg. 
The  boy  had  been  following  the  crowd. 

On  the  way  up,  they  went  through  the 
Poydras  market  and  found  a  negro 
watchman,  George  Morris,  whom  they 
proceeded  to  chase  through  the  market, 
shooting  him  as  he  ran.  When  he  fell, 
with  two  shots  in  the  back,  one  of  the 
young  fiends  stabbed  him  to  finish  him, 
I  and  nearly  did  so. 

I  John  Deeds,  a  watchman,  was  shot 
'  during  the  Indiscriminate  shooting  in 
the  Poydras  market.  They  searched 
the  vicinity  of  the  basin  thoroughly  and 
I  failing  to  find  any  one.  walked  out  to- 
wards Franklyn  street,  where  they 
passed  a  negro  seated  in  front  of  a  bar- 
room, whom  they  promptly  shot.  He 
was  Dan  White,  a  roustabout,  and  got  a 
bullet  in  his  right  wrist. 

Ab(jut  1  o'clock,  they  headed  for  the 
neighborhood  of  Canal  street,  and  on  the 
way  looted  two  second-hand  stores. 
They  were  trying  to  break  into  one  place 
and  fired  several  shots  into  it.  with  the 
ret:uU  that  iliey  wounded  one  of  their 
own  crowd,  a  man  named  John  Doran, 
who  got  a    bullet   in   the  leg. 

Thev  moved  <tn  down  to  Canal  street 
and  at  the  corner  of  Rampart  started  to 
break  Into  another  second-hand  store, 
but  the  patrol  wagon  full  of  police  came 
up  and  they  desisted.  They  stood  there 
for  half  an  hour  and  then  gradually 
melted   away. 

The  d<nvntovvn  mob,  however,  did  ter- 
rible execution  and  kept  up  its  fiendish 
work  until  half  past  3  o'clock.  A  no- 
torious character  took  the  lead  and  they 
headed  for  the  neighborhood  of  Frank- 
lyn street  and  the  custom  house.  They 
found  no  negroes  and  were  going  down 
Villere  street  towards  some  negro  hovels 
when  they  .saw  a  negro  in  a  crowded 
Villere  street  car.  They  halted  the  car, 
pulled  the  trolly  off,  ordered  about 
twenty  passengers  out  and  then  murder- 
ed the  black.  He  was  dragged  out  and 
filled  with  lead,  being  instantly  killed. 
He  was  evidently  a  laborer.  His  name 
is  not  known. 

They  moved  on  out  to  the  vicinity  of 
the  old  basin,  on  Toulouse  street,  and 
terrorized  that  neighborhood,  but 
evidently  found  no  negroes.  Then  they 
went  down  as  far  as  Kelerec  and  Dau- 
phine  streets,  where  they  found  an  old 
negro.  75  years  of  age,  named  Baptist 
Fllo,  whom  they  beat  and  shot  almost 
to  death. 

Coming  uptown  again,  they  headed  for 
the  French  market  and  met  an  unknown 
negro  on  Decatur,  between  St.  Phillip 
and  I'rsulines  street,  whom  they 
promptly  beat  into  an  insensible  con- 
dition and  left  for  dead.  He  was  dis- 
covered an  hour  later  and  died  shortly 
after.  He  had  been  pulled  from  a  meat 
wagon,  which  he  was  driving  to  the 
French  market. 

They  found  another  negro  \:^  the  mar- 
ket and  pnmptl.v  put  an  end  to  his  ex- 
istence.    He  is  not  known. 

They  K  cated  the  po^t^?r  !,f  the  L.  -t 
N.  pay  car  and  chased  him  up  the  levee. 
He  ran  into  the  custom  house,  where 
he  was  protected  by  the  night  watchman 
at  the  point  of  a  Winchester.  The  crowd 
sulked  around  for  a  wnile  and  then 
gradually   dispersed. 

Acting  Mayor  Mehle  issued  a  pro- 
clamation at  half  past  11  o'clock,  call- 
ing on  all  good  citizens  to  keep  the 
peace,  but  it  did  not  stop  the  rioting. 

Just  l)efore  daybreak,  the  remnants 
of  the  mob  gathered  in  the  vicinity  of 
the  Spanish  Fort  railroad  to  waylay 
negroes  as  they  were  going  to  their 
work  at  Chalmette.  Some  of  them  came 
along  and  tre  mob  chased  them,  firing 
as  they  ran.  A  baker,  on  his  morning 
rounds,  caught  a  bullet  In  the  leg- 

William  Armstrong,  a  negro  sitting 
on  the  Claiborne  bridge,  was  shot  in  the 
thigh  last  night  by  a  mob  that  passed 
by.  He  made  his  way  home  and  only 
reported  his  injury  this  morning.

vole  of  the  national  cummittt'e  of  the 
national      sold  Democra  sterday 

afternoon  the  scheme  of  Iu-^idh  with  the 
anti-imperialistic  m  iv-.-ment  originating 
with  the  recent  mass  meeting  at  the 
Plaza  hotel  in  New  York  was  defeated. 
a»  was  also  the  plan  to  place  a  gold 
I>emocratic  ticket  in  the  field.  Of  the 
thirty-nine  nienfbers  of  the  national 
commiii'?e  there  were  present  nineteen, 
two  of  the  committeemen  holding  s.'veral 
proxies. 

The  Plaza  hotel  committee,  through  a 
subcommittee  presented  an  address 
setting  <,ut  the  proposition  for  fusion  and 
a  third  party  ticket,  with  the 
reasons,  coming  down  from  the  Xew 
York  meeting.  Upon  the  hearing  of 
ar^unitrnt  from  John  Jay  Chapman. 
Thomas  M.  Osborn,  of  the  New  York  i 
committee  and  others  the  gold  men 
decided  upon  an  immediate  consider- 
ation of  the  question  and  the  New  York 
committeemen  took  back  scats  and 
listened  to  a  discussion  which  continued 
for  more  than  an  hour. 

In  accordance  with  a  suggestion  by 
Charles  Tracey,  of  New  York,  each 
member  of  the  gold  national  committee, 
in  succession  expressed  his  views.  East- 
era  and  western  men  alike  opposeil 
the  proposition,  taking  the  ground  that 
there  had  been  di.ssatisfai  lion  an:l  with- 
drawals from  the  ranks  of  the  national 
Democracy,  that  the  placing  of  a  thiril 
ticket  in  the  field  this  y>ar  with  the 
new  issues  now  before  the  country 
Would  in  no  way  tend  to  the  accomplish- 
ment of  the  end  and  aim  back  of  the 
organization  of  the  national  Demo- 
cratic party  in  18t»6.  It  .vas  urged  tha: 
those  gold  Democrats  will  stand  today 
where  thty  stood  in  the  campaign  of  ISJtU 
on  the  money  question  and  against 
*'Bryunism'  ^vould  be  left  free  to  vot' 
in  support  of  the  Republican  ijlatform 
which  was  unchangeably  in  favor  of  a 
"sound  and  stable  monetary  system.  ' 
When  it  canif  to  \V.  B.  Halde- 
men.  proprietor  of  the  Louisville  Cour- 
ier Journal,  and  a  member  uf  the  na- 
tional executive  committee,  to  make 
expression,  a  sensation  was  sprung. 
Mr.  Haldeman  in  1S»6  contributed  val- 
uable aid  in  actively  raising  funds  for 
the  organization  and  maintenance  of  the 
gold  Democracy,  and  was  a  member  of 
the  auditing  committee  of  ll-at  party. 
He  stood  not  three  feet  away  from 
Ji»hn  P.  Frenzel  as  he  talkcil,  and  ap- 
parently ilirected  his  attention  exclu- 
sively to  that  gentleman,  and  when  he 
had  concluded  withdrew  from  the  room. 
The  withdrawal  of  rklr.  Haldeman 
from  the  meeting  was  understood  as  a 
withdrawl  from  the  committee  and  all 
further  connection  with  the  gold  Denm- 
cratic    organization.  Expressions    i>f 

regret  were  made  by  a  number  of  the 
gentlemen  present,  and  praise  of  the 
Kentucky  member  for  the  valuable  aid 
he  had  rendered  in  the  past. 

In  his  speech  Mr.  Haldeman  declared 
that  no  I'emoci-at  could  in  Kentucky 
hesitate,  but  all  must  stand  ajfainst 
government    by       assassination.  He 

hoped  the  time  woul  come  when  In- 
diana would  elect  a  new  governor  who 
would  honor  Kentucky's  requisition.^. 

When  the  vote  on  the  question  of  fu- 
sion and  the  nomination  of  the  third 
ticket  wa«  taken,  O.  Woodl>ury. 
of  New  Hampshire,  proved  to  be  the 
only  committeeman  present  wh;j  fav- 
ored a  third  party  "ticket.  The  vote 
stood  26  to  1  agAinst  the  proposition. 
Mr.  Woodliury  at  once  nu'Ved  that  the 
vote  be  made  unanimous  and  this  was 
done. 

A  <'ommitt»-e  ot  ihi'e-j  \\as  ihen  ap- 
pointed to  draft  a  manifesto  setting  out 
the  posit!'-:i  <>''  th"  iijii  i.m.ii  Femocracy 
regarding;  ori;    the 

people. 

The  committee  appointed  at  the  con- 
feren-e  held  at  the  I'laz:i  hottl.  New 
Y'ork.  gave  out  a  statement  and  call  for 
a  convention  w  be  held  in  this  city 
Aug.  H.  The  statement  says  in  part: 
"The  national  committee  of  the  gold 
Dtmotrats  have  brought  the  usefulness 
of  that  organization  to  a  point  where 
it  becomes  the  iluty  of  the  independent 
v,»r.tr  to  »>i:i(e  in  the  field  such  a  plat- 
form and  candi«iates  as  they  can  sup- 
port. That  c.tn  only  lie  done  by  form- 
ing a  party  that  will  stand  against 
both  parties.  \V'>  believe  the  anli- 
imperialists  have  done  splendid  wf)rk  m 
Calling  the  npublje  to  th<-  ideas  of  the 
founders,  and  believe  the  interests  of 
the  people  etin  be  Itetter  served  by  a 
third  parly  than  otherwise. 

■*We  l>elieve  that  many  people  who 
have  not  heretofore  been  identified  with 
the  anti-imperialists  will  signify  their 
approval  of  our  action.  In  order  to 
meet  this  end  a  mass  convention  is 
hereby  called  to  meet  at  IndianapolKs, 
at  3  p.  m.  on  the  14th  day  of  August, 
1900.  to  nominate  or  co-operate  in  the 
nomination  of  candidates  for  president 
and  vice  nresident. 

The  n.itiooa!  committee  of  the  gold 
Democrat.s  adopted  resolutions  affirm- 
ing the  Indianapolis  platform  of  is;>6, 
but  stating  that  the  nomination  of  can- 
didates by  the  party  for  president  and 
vice  president  would  be  unw'"*'.  The 
resolutions  recommen;Vd  that  the  state

everybody  who  reads  the  news- 
sure  to  know  of  the  wonderful 
cures  made  by  Dr. 
Kilmer's  Swamp-Root, 
the  great  kidney,  liver 
and  bladder  remedy. 

It  is  the  great  medi- 
cal triumph  of  the  nine- 
teenth century:  dis- 
l  covered  after  years  of 
"T~]UlJi  scientific  research  by 
C^=\B  Dr.  Kilmer,  the  emi- 
nent kidney  and  blad- 
der specialist,  and  is 
wonderfully  successful  in  promptly  curing 
lame  back,  kidney,  bladder,  uric  acid  trou- 
bles and  Bright's  Disease,  which  is  the  worst 
form  of  kidney  trouble. 

Dr.  Kilmer's  Swamp-Root  is  not  rec- 
ommended for  everything  but  if  you  have  kid- 
ney, liver  or  bladder  trouble  it  will  be  found 
just  the  remedy  you  need.  It  has  been  tested 
in  so  many  ways,  in  hospital  work,  in  private 
practice,  among  the  helpless  too  poor  to  pur- 
chase relief  and  has  proved  so  successful  in 
every  case  that  a  special  arrangement  has 
been  made  by  which  all  readers  of  this  paper 
who  have  not  already  tried  it,  may  have  a 
sample  bottle  sent  free  by  mail,  also  a  book 
telling  more  about  Swamp-Root  and  how  to 
find  out  if  you  have  kidney  or  bladder  trouble. 
When  writing  mention  reading  this  generous 
offer  in  this  paper  and 
send  your  address  to

may  best  subserve  the  principles  of  our 
p.arty." 

Lewis  Erich,  of  Colorado,  who  since 
1896  has  been  prominent  and  active  in 
the  gold  f>tmocrfiiic  movement,  said 
regarding  the  action  of  the  gold  Demo- 
cratic committee  that  it  was  an  outrage. 
He  said  the  whole  thing  was  a  Mc- 
Kinley  dodge.  Mr.  Erichs  wrote  a  letter 
of  resignation  and  withdrawal  which 
was  accepted  by  the  committee. 


Indianapolis,  July  26.— The  eighth  an- 
nual meeting  of  the  Ignited  States 
League  of  Building  and  Loan  associ- 
ations came  to  a  close  today.  The  final 
session  was  called  to  order  in  the  senate 
chamber  a  little  after  10  o'clock  this 
forenoon  by  the  retiring  President  Mr. 
Fitzniorris,  and  proceeded  immediately 
to  the  hearing  of  papers. 

As    the   league   was   anxious   to   close 

its    business    session    early,    there    was 

little    discussion    on     the    papers.    The 

first  one  read  was  the  address  of  Julius 
Stern,    of    Chicago,    on    "Obstacles    En 


The  Qrandest  Treasure. 

One  of  the  fondest,  hap- 
piest anticipations  of   a 
mother's  heart  is 
her  husband's  e 
nest    toil,    and 
careful  economy 
both     their 
parts  they  shall 
be  able  to  lay 
by  a  little  store 

which  the 
baby  when  it  is 
grown  to  man- 
hood or  wom- 
anhood shall 
have  as  its  own 
private  pos- 
session. 

But  every 
wife  who  ex- 
pects to  be- 
come a  mother  may  provide  a  far  more 
valuable  treasure  for  her  little  one's  future 
than  can  ever  be  contained  in  any  savings 
bank  if  she  will  take  the  proper  care  of  her 
own  health  and  physical  condition  during 
the  time  when  the  baby  is  expected.  And 
if  every  husband  would  feel  it  his  bounden 
duty  to  see  that  all  possible  means  are 
adopted  to  carry  his  wife  safely  through 
this  critical  time,  he  will  help  to  bequeath 
to  his  offspring  that  health  and  natural 
vigor  which  is  the  grandest  fortune  a  father 
can  bestow. 

"  Daring  the  past  year  I  found  myself  preg- 
nant and  in  rapidly  failing  health,"  writes  Mrs. 
\V.  J.  Kidder,  of  Hill  Dale  Farm,  (Enosburg 
Center)  Enosburg,  Vt..  iu  a  grateful  letter  to  Dr. 
R.  V.  Pierce,  of  Buffalo,  N.  Y.  "  I  suffered  dread- 
fully from  bloating  and  urinary  difficulty.  I  was 
growing  perceptibly  weaker  each  day  and  suf- 
fered much  sharp  pain  at  times.  I  felt  that 
something  must  be  done.  I  sought  your  ad\-ice 
and  received  a  prompt  reply.  I  followed  your 
directions  and  t<x)k  twelve  bottles  of  Dr.  Pierce's 
Favorite  Prescription,  and  also  followed  your 
in.structions.  I  began  to  improve  immediately, 
mv  health  became  excellent,  and  I  could  do  all 
mv  own  work  (we  live  on  a  good  sized  farm).  I 
walked  and  ro<le  all  I  could,  and  enjoyed  it.  I 
had  a  .short  easy  confinement  and  have  a 
healthy  baby  boy." 


YEARN  FOR^  SPAIH. 

Porto  Rieans*  Hearts  Do,  Judging 
From  Tlisir  Doings, 

San  Juan.  Porto  Rico.  July  26. — From 
end  to  end  .yesterday  the  streets  of  San 
Juan  were  a  labyrinth  of  glittering  Span- 
ish tlags  in  honor  of  St.  Jagj,  the  patron 
saint  of  Spain.  Banners  and  bunting 
suspended  from  house  to  house  covei-ed 
the  thoroughfares,  and  everywhere  the 
balconies  were  richly  dressed.  There  was 
no  attempt  whatever  to  display  the 
American  colors.  The  celebration  of  the 
Fourth  of  July  was  totally  eclins€>d. 
Then  the  citizens  were  unable  to  raise  a 
dollar  for  the  purfKJse  of  demonstration. 
Now  there  was  no  difficulty  in  carrvlng 
tfiirough  a  program  which  must  have 
cost  $:>000.  Possibly  six  native  houses  dis- 
played the  stars  and  stripes.  On  the 
other  hand,  it  is  estimated  that  no  fewer 
than  iJiOO  Spanish  Hags  were  Hung  to  the 
breeze. 

The  real  feeling  of  the  people  was  ex- 
pressed by  bands  of  hoodlums  which  pa- 
raded the  streets  in  the  le.ss  resi^ectable 
quarters  of  I'le  city  carrying  Spanish 
Hags  and  shouting  "Viva  Espanola." 
The  fact  that  today  was  the  second  anni- 
versary of  the  landing  of  the  United 
States  tro  jps  under  (len.  Miles  seemed  to 
b*'  forgotten  here,  althcugh  at  Pcmce, 
Mayagucz  and  other  jioints  there  wer- 
slight  observances  of  the  anniversary, 
and  it  was  apparent  that  the  local  cele- 
bration had  been  arranged  to  eclipse 
ttiat  of  the  Fourth  of  July,  which  was 
scarcel.v  observed  at  all  in  P  >rto  Rico. 
A  prominent  Porti>  Rican.  discussing  the 
celebration  fr;  ni  that  pojiu  of  view  yes- 
terday,   said: 

"« )ur  people  shouM  not  bo  blamed  by 
the  Americans  for  expressing  their  feel- 
ings in  this  way.  The  I'nited  Stales 
constitution  has  not  been  extended  to  the 
island.  The  provisions  of  citizenship 
have  been  denied  them.  In  such  circum- 
stances Porto  Rieans  cannot  appreciate 
American  institutions,  and  naturally 
would  not  ob.serve  American  holiday--^. 
Today's  celebration,  however,  was  purely 
Spanish  and  many  native  Porto  Rieans 
did  not  participate."

Incidentally,  as  it  turned  out,  the  in- 
stitutions did  more  tlian  that:  they  did 
earn  a  fair  profit  for  their  home-building 
members  bv  saving  the  rent,  which  had 
accrued  before  to  the  tnriciiment  of  the 
landlord,  and  as  to  those  who  did  not  care 
to  use  the  monev  which  they  took  out  of 
the  association  for  purposes  of  building 
homes,  fo  ihem  was  left  a  handsome  proIU, 
showing  a  la;ge  i)ercentage  of  earnings 
upon  their  Investment.s:  and  to  all  was 
taught  the  lesson  of  thrift  and  self  help.

of  .sneculatlve  advance  in  land  values, 
the  WW  ventures  floated  gayly  upon  a 
summer  sea  of  apparent  prosperity  prom- 
ising fabulous  dividends  and  bestowing 
inordinate  profits  upon  the  lucky  few  who 
withdrew  their  funds  and  severed  their

THE  CHSSS  TOUHNEY, 

Tlie  Tliird  Round  In  the  Contssfs  at 
Munich. 

Munich,  July  i:i;.— This  morning  the  play- 
ers engaged  In  the  iiilernatioiial  chess 
tournament  in  this  city  met  in  the  third 
round,  for  which  the  pairing  read  as  fol- 
lows: Marco  vs.  Halprin,  Gotlschall  vs. 
Janow.ski.  Marocsy  vs.  Pillfbury,  Sho- 
walter    vs.    Burn.    Cohn    vs.    Bardelebeii. 


ues    collapsed    and    the    inevitable    storm  ,  i>,,i>iel  vs.  Schhehter,  Jacob  vs.  Biliecard 
burst,  wrecking  many  and  crippling  more,  i  Bergc:-  vs.   Wolf. 


the  remaining  jissoclations  were  compelled  j 
to  apply  s^evere  economies  and  unsparing 
measures  of  true  business  method  to  re- 
trieve the  waste  and  prodigality  of  the 
past. 

The  redtiction  of  profits  in  some  cases. 
the  passing  of  jiroflts  in  others,  their  en- 
tire extinguishment  in  others,  have  had 
the  effect  of  disenchanting  and  drivlr.g 
out  those  who,  for  the  good  of  the  system 
itself.  It  had  been  Vietter  to  have  never 
had  within  the  fold-the  Investors,  pure 
and  simple,  who  look  for  big  profits  by 
any  and  everv  of  the  advertising  methods 
of  "the  shoo  keeper,  and  of  leaving  to  the 
remnant,  the  industrial  class,  who  u.s- d 
the  institution  as  a  place  for  savings  ami 
accumulation  for  a  bonn-.  the  brunt  oi  tne 
struggle  back  to  safer  lines  and  a  truer 
liasis.  ,       , 

The  capitalistic  investor.s.  as  usual,  who 
iolned  existing  or  created  new  as.sociations 
with  the  Intent  of  exoloiting  them  for 
higher  Interest  rates  only,  and  the  iri. - 
thods  thev  employed,  were  an  obstaele. 
and  no  mean  one.  to  the  true  i-ucctss  ot 
building  .tssoeiatlons  The  method,  and 
the  only  method,  to  avoid  thi.=  obstacle. 
Is  a  return  to  first  principles— conserva- 
tism of  management,  localization  of  busi- 
ness individualism  and  home  building  as 
the  object,  not  expansion,  extravagance 
and  e.xplfitation.  Another  obstacle,  ana 
a  far  more  ditflenit  one  to  guard  against 
and  remove,  is  the  change  in  industrial 
conditions. 

I'he    ad\ance    toward.s    concentration    oi 


capital,  on  the  one  hand,  and  of  ever  in- 
creasing combinations  in  the  ranks  of 
labor,  on  the  other,  with  its  ever  more  im- 
perative subordinations  of  freedom  of  In- 
dividual initiative  to  the  command  of  the 
socialistic  organizatii>n— be  it  that  of 
capital,  on  the  one,  or  of  labor,  on  the 
other  side— is  a  factor  which  must  be 
given  the  most  careful  and  thorougn 
studv.  It  does  not  appear  to  be  favorabie 
to  tiie  conditions  necessary  to  breathe  a 
large  bodv  of  home-owning  mechanics  and 
that  class  of  high-minded  citizens  of  small 
material,  but  larger  moral  resources, 
which  constitute  the  great  middle  class, 
which  is  .ilwavs  the  backb<ine  of  the  na- 
tion, and  for  whom  the  building  associa- 
tion Is  a  proper  medium  of  service.  Y'et. 
the  self  abnegation  and  a  spirit  of  content- 
ment with  smaller  returns  but  safer  in- 
vestments-, the  time  between  ebb  and  ilood 
in  this,  too.  may  be  safely  tided  over. 
This  movement  toward  concentration,  if 
It  goes  on  unchecked,  will  result  In  the 
effacement  of  the  large  number  of  middle 
class  employers  of  labor  in  the  fields  of 
manufacture,  distribution  and  tpanspor- 
tatlon.  bv  substituting  a  few  corpora- 
tions of  gigantic  capacHy  fiT  the  many 
smaller  corporate  anil  individual  amploy- 
i-rs  of  former  days.  Some  of  the  latter  will 
have  become  the  cimpoiient  parts  of  Ihe 
new  clas.'  of  emi)!oyers,  while  the  great- 
(T  numbfr  will  have  been  degraded  into 
the  rank:  of  the  wage  earner?,  thus  de- 
creasing the  number  of  those  who  are  de- 
pendent upon  the  will  and  whim  of  the 
rulers,  while  narrowing  down  the  opportu- 
nities of  obtaining  work  among  com- 
peting employers  In  the  labor  market 
whenever,  for  one  reason  or  another,  a 
position  la  lost. 

The    resultant    feeling   of    insecurity    or 
unrest    among   the   people   composing   the 

middle   slass— th«    i««iii3s    of   instability 


An  adjournment  was  taken  at  1  p.  m., 
wh»'n  the  games  had  |)rogresse<l  as  fol-

Chicago,  July  -tj.— A  conference  of 
leading  steel  and  Bessemer  pig  iron 
interests  of  the  country  was  held  today 
in  the  offices  of  the  Federal  Steel  com- 
pany in  this  city,  in  compliance  with  a 
call  issued  by  President  E.  H.  Gray,  of 
the  Federal  Steel  company:  President 
Schwab,  of  the  Carntgie  Steel  com- 
pany, and  Jos.  G.  Butler.  Jr.,  represent- 
ing the  Bessemer  Furnace  association. 
The  object  of  this  conference  is  to  go 
over  the  trade  situation  for  the  purpose 
of  determining,  if  possible,  on  some 
plan  to  improve  it.  The  plan  contem- 
plated is  to  cut  down  production  by 
closing  every  blast  furnace  controlled 
by  the  Interest?  mentioned  for  one 
month.  The  subject  was  discussed  at 
length,  in  an  effort  to  reach  the  ab- 
solute unanimity  of  all  interests 
necessary  to  the  success  of  the  plan.

Michigan  Democrats  Name 

Detroit  Man  For  Governor 

By  Acclamation. 

NO  BALLOTS  TAKEN 


On  Any  of  ilie  Nominees- 
Kansas  City  Platform 
Endorsed. 


Detroit.  Mich..  July  26.— Hon.  William 
C.  Mayburv.  mayor  of  Detroit,  was  last 
evening  tendered  the  DemDcratic  nom- 
ination for  governor  br  the  Democratic 
state  convention  with  a  unanimity 
which  rendered  useless  the  taking  of  any 
ballot.  Not  a  dissenting  voice  was  heard 
when  the  vote  on  the  proposition  t )  nom- 
inate Mayburv  was  acted  upon,  and  the 
withdrawal  of  the  half  dozen  otner  gub- 
ernatorial candidates  before  any  vote 
was  taken  was  received  by  the  delegates 
with  loud  cheers  of  approval. 

The  platform  as  unaninuusly  adopted 
bv  the  convention  regrets  "the  uresent 
condition  of  the  political  and  adminis- 
trative agencies  which,  under  Republi- 
can control,  have  so  debauched  our  gov- 
ernment;il  system  as  to  distract  the  staie 
and  debase  tCie  functions  of  a  free  gov- 
ernment;" denounces  the  "maladminis- 
trp.iion  which  has  iirovided  the  fruit- 
age of  an  investigation  by  the  grand 
jury  and  numerous  criminal  trials  of 
state  officials  jiending  in  the  courts." 
and  demands  seaichin.g  inquiries  into 
the  methods  of  every  department  of  the 
state  government.  The  resolutions  de- 
plore "the  carrupting  inRuence  of  wealc.i 
upon  our  social  and  political  machinery 
as  displayed  in  the  recent  campaign  of 
iCiree  millionaires  for  the  office  of  gover- 
n<ir."  The  last  legislature  is  denounc'^l 
as  "the  crowning  infamy  in  the  histoiv 
of  the  Republican  party  in  Michigan," 
and  promise  is  marie  to  abolish  the  fee 
system  of  compensation  for  public  olR- 
cers  wherever  possible.  Lower  and 
equal  taxation  is  to  be  made  a  leading 
issue. 

Untiring  support  is  pledged  to  Bryan 
and  Stevenson,  and  the  Kansas  Citv 
Dlatform  is  heartily  endorsed  in  letter 
and  spirit,  in  all  its  parts. 

The  platform  pledges  repeal  of  all  law.s 
under  which  special  privileges  are  cm- 
ferred.  and  an  amendment  of  sympathy 
with  iCie  South  African  republic  was 
added. 

Gthers  named  for  governor  were: 
Thomas  ]?.  rav.i.naugh,  Nathan  B. 
Hayes,  S.  L.  Linnell.  Patrick  H.  Gilkcy 
and  ex-Lieutenant  Governor  John

night after  completing  the  ticket  as  fol- 
ic ws,  all  the  nominees  being  unanim  )us-

corn  has  suffered  has  been  a  severe  one. 
a^il  a  fu'ther  break  does  not  seem  reason- 
able in  the  face  of  that  already  scored  aii.l 
tne  strong  statistical  position  which  this 
cereal  si  in    holds. 

Thi-  oat  market  has  been  very  dull  and 
quite  w<ak;  trade  uneventful.  specula- 
tion small,  crop  advices  generally  fa\or- 
ahle.  Uats  are  showing  no  originality  and 
appear  to  be  acting  entirely  in  sympathy 
with  other  grain.  In  our  opinion  they 
have  not  the  relative  value  at  these 
prices  that  titber  wlieat  or  corn  hav-^, 
and  ail  things  being  considered,  can't  ad- 
vocate the  long  side. 

The  provision  mark*>t  has  been  quiet 
and  easy;  prices  suffering  somewhat  trom 
yesterday's  close.  Dull  speculation  as 
much  as  anything  is  responsible  for  the 
weakness,  in  our  opinion  any  decline  in 
urovlslors  mnkt*  the  bu^Mng  side  all  Mio 
more  attractive,  and  believe  firmly  that 
values  will  show  a  very  substantial  gain 
as  soon  as  speeuiatlon  improves  and  the 
strong  bgltlmate  position  is  reflected  in 
the  c.,e(.,,);,ti\f.  articles.

WEARE  S  REPOR*r. 
Chicago.  July  26.— The  action  of  the 
wheat  market  this  morning  has  been  ptac- 
tically  a  repetition  of  yesterday.  A  quick 
run  down  converted  into  an  equally  rap.d 
advance  and  although  the  market  has  iiot 
shown  the  strength  exhibited  yesterday, 
offerings  are  very  light  and  well  taken 
care  of  even  with  the  small  speculation 
now  existing.  There  has  been  a  coniin- 
ued  demand  for  cash  wheat  today.  Th» 
figures  for  cash  wheat  are  somewhat  bet- 
ter than  yestenlay  when  prices  wert-  con- 
sidered too  low.  Bids  on  No.  2  hard  K.'.n- 
sas  V»c  higher.  The  Price  Current  f  .>-ti- 
mates  the  crop  figures  at  55<».0i.i'i.i>ii  Luis, 
even  including  the  pacific  shrinkage  The 
Northwestern  Miller,  however,  estimates 
i  the  three  states  at  from  bXt.ono.O'X)  to  125,-

New  York,  July  26.— Selling  for  a  rise  was 
in  evidence  this  morning  and  added  to 
sympathy  with  London  in  the  depression. 
This  caused  fractional  declines  in  the  ma- 
jority of  stocks.  Baltimore  &  Ohio  and 
New  York  Central  led  the  downward 
course.  There  were  a  few  exceptions  on 
the  .side  of  gains  and  the  offerings  were  In 
small  volume.  In  some  stocks,  there  was 
further  recessions  from  the  openii.g  fig- 
ures. Metropolitan  Street  Ralhvav  broke 
21-s.  but  rallied  stnmgiy  when  Sugar.  To. 
becco  and  Brooklyn  Transit  moved  up 
above  last  night.  Dullness  became  more 
marked  on  the  rise  .;nd  gains  were  not  well 
held.  Although  the  hu.vlng  demand  was  at 
a  minimum,  and  confined  to  a  tew  spe- 
cialties, the  bears  made  no  effort  to  de- 
press prices.  Towards  middav,  there  was 
a  substantial  rise  in  Sugar.  Tobacco  and 
Brooklyn  Transit,  but  it  was  poorlv  h.ld. 
The  stocks  ahsorbed  ail  the  speculative  in- 
tt-rvsts  of  the  forenoon.  Bonds  were  slug- 
gisli  and  unsettled. 

Selling  pressure  relaxed  again  biit  only 
vol.,  feeble  rallies  followed.  Metropolitan 
SLr..ei  Railway  droiipeJ  back  ro  ih"  low- 
est. Co.iEolulated  Gas  fell  2.  and  Tin  Plate 
1*^.,  Baltimore  &  Ohio  got  uu  nearlc  a 
point  in  the  late  dealings.  Thf  closing  was 
inanimate  at  prices  lower  than  vesterdav. 


Tht  London   Paptrs  Aro  Hoaving 
Bricks  at  Him. 

London.  July  26.— The  arrival  of 
Charles  T.  Y'erkes,  of  Chicago,  in  Lon- 
don, on  an  alleged  mission  to  secure 
control  of  the  electric  tramway  system 
of  the  metropolis,  has  led  to  considerable 
newspaper  criticsim.  The  Star  calls  Mr. 
Yerkes  the  "man  who  owns  a  $25,000,- 
000  monopoly  in  Chicago  and  wants  to 
run  electric  cars  here,"  and  then  pro- 
ceeds: "Chapters  of  Mr.  Stead's  book 
on  Chicago  are  devoted  to  scorching 
criticism  of  Mr.  Yerkes'  street  railways 
and  Mr.  Yerkes  as  a  tax  dodger." 

The  Express  comments:  "It  is  said 
that  Baron  Yerkes.  as  Chicagoans  called 
!  him.  has  sold  the  greater  part  of  his  in- 
terests in  the  United  States,  and  is 
bringing  $50,000,000  to  this  country  in 
hard  cash.  What  will  he  do  with  it? 
Gossips  say  he  is  going  to  make  a  great 
bid  for  tramway  and  railway  conces- 
sions in  London,  that  he  intends  to  link 
up  all  means  of  passenger  transporta- 
tion in  the  metropolis,  as  he  has  dane  in 
Chicago,  and  realize  another  mighty 
fortune:  Rumor  says  he  dangled  £10,000 
before  the  astonished  and  indignant 
gaze  of  certain  of  our  honest  county  and 
common  councillor?.

WILL  MOT^CLOSE. 

Steel  and    Iron  Mlils  Will 
Gary  Says. 

Chicago.  July.  26.— The  Post  today 
says:  "Big  steel  and  iron  mills  through- 
out the  country  are  not  going  to  shut 
down,  for  they  can't  afford  to;  they  have 
loo  many  orders  on  hand,"  was  the  state- 
ment made  by  E.  H.  Gary,  president  of 
the  Federal  Steel  company,  just  previ- 
ous to  the  meeting  of  the  presidents  of 
the  large  steel  companies  this  afternoon. 

"I  have  not  heard  of  the  proposition 
to  clo.se  all  the  mills  of  the  country  for  a 
month.  If  such  a  proposition  has  been 
made  it  r.ever  came  from  the  manufac- 
turers. I  will  say  positively  that  none 
of  the  Federal  Steel  company's  mills, 
other  than  tho.^^e  which  are  already 
closed,  will  lie  .shut  down.  As  1  say,  the 
times  are  too  prosperous,  and  the  mills 
cannot  afford  to  close. 

"We  have  met.  just  as  the  railroad 
presidents  meet,  to  discuss  rates  so  that 
fair  schedules  for  roads  and  patro.Ts  may 
be  obtained."

spectfuUy  stale  that  the  Chinese  govern 
ment   is  now  paralyzed,   and   the  secret 
edicts   show   thai    it   is   sympathy    with 
the  Boxers. 

The  fact  that  under  the  existing  cir- 
cumstances the  troops  at  the  forts  were 
given  extra  drills,  torpedoes  were  pro- 
vided and.  it  is  claimed,  planted  in  the 
entrance  of  the  Dei  Ho,  was  considered 
menacing,  and  by  other  senior  naval 
officers,  sufficient  cause  to  justify  them 
in  demanding  the  temporary  occupation 
of  the  forts.  This  culminated  in  the 
bombardment  of  the  forts  by  other 
foreign  gunboats  on  the  morning  of 
the  17  instant,  which  has  lieen  des- 
cribed. In  this  bombardment,  the 
Monocacy  was  fired  upon  and  struck 
without  having  received  pie\i(ius  warn- 
ing. 

It  is  now  neces.siir.v  to  .join  with  the 
fither  foreign  powers  for  common  de- 
fense and  preservation  of  foreign  people 
and  the  honor  of  our  country. 

I  refused  to  .loin  in  taking  possession  of 
tile  imperial  Chinese  railwa.v  station  and 
also  declined  to  join  in  the  demand  for 
temiKirary  ticcupation  of  the  Taku  forts, for 
1  thought  it  against  the  poiicy  and  wishes 
of  our  government  to  be  entan,ErIed  with 
other  foreign  powers  in  such  a  step,  and 
also  because  it  endangered  the  lives  of  peo- 
ple in  the  advance  of  absolute  necessity; 
for  up  to  early  morning  of  June  17.  the 
Cninese  government  had  not  committed, 
so  far  as  I  am  aware,  any  act  of  open 
hostilities  toward   the  foreign   forces. 

In  opening  fire  without  warning,  an  act 
of  war  was  committed,  when  many  shots 
were  fired  at  the  place  where  the  Monocacy 
was  moored,  about  3<J00  yards  from  tht 
forts.  Those  firing  must  .have  known  of 
her  presence  there  as  she  had  been  moored 
in  that   position   for  a  number  of  days. 

Under  these  circumstances  I  regarded 
the  situation  as  one  for  the  protection  of 
the  nations  honor  and  the  preservation  of 
our  people  and  have  acted  accordingly.

MADE  BIG  MONEY. 
Cleveland,  July  26.— At  the  annual  meet- 
ing of  the  American  Shipbuiidhig  com- 
pany which  was  held  In  New  Jei.sey  ves- 
terday.  I'resident  W.  L.  Brown  submitted 
a  rei>ort  whicli  shews  the  net  earnings  of 
the  company  to  have  been  $1,100,665,  for  the 
year  ended  June  30.  Of  this  the  holders 
of  the  preferred  stock  received  $5;!2.0f»0  as 
a  7  per  cent  d  vldend,  leaving  a  surplus  of 
$56S,665.85,  which  would  be  more  than 
enough  to  pa>  another  like  dividend.  The 
capital  stock  of  the  company  consists  of 
J7,9<xi,<.i00  preferred  and  $7,600,iXh.i  common 
stock. 


THE  ARMENIA   AGROl'ND. 

AmherstburK.  One,  July  26,— The  schoon- 
er Armenia  be  und  for  Chicago  with  a  car- 
go of  ccal  In  tow  of  the  steamer  Fred 
Pabst.  took  a  sheer  while  going  through 
the  Lime  Kills  cut  yesterday  and  went 
head-on   ihe  east  bank. 

Later— The  schooner  Armenia,  aground 
at  the  lime  Kilns,  was  released  at  4  o'clock 
this  morning. 


BUFFALO  ELEVATOR  WAR. 

Buffalo.  Julv  26,— As  the  elevator  busi- 
ness In  the  harbor  stands  now  the  Kel- 
logg and  the  Watson  are  doing  what  they 
can  to  stand  up  against  the  pool.  Tht 
Kellogg  might  have  gone  Into  the  pool, 
but  the  Watson,  not  having  any  rail  con- 
nection. Is  restricted  to  canal  business.  So 
when  it  began  to  do  business  in  the  spring 
the  pool  hou.-jes  at  once  commenced  to 
handle  all  canal  grain  free.  With  the  Kel- 
logg on  the  other  side  of  the  harbor  and 
able  to  load  oars,  it  was  then  necessary 
to  take  much  of  the  rail  grain  for  noth- 
ing also,  so  :hat  It  turns  out  that  the 
greater  part  of  the  grain  handled  here 
pays  nothing  for  transfer. 


MASTERS'    LICENSES  SUSPENDED. 

After  an  in\estigation  of  the  facts  con- 
n<-cted  with  the  collision  betw-een  tht 
steamers  Acme  and  John  M.  Wilson  at 
Buffalo  July  7  the  local  insjiectors  of  steam 
vessels  have  found  both  masters  guilty  of 
of  violating  the  pilot  rules  governing  speed 
at  dangerous  points  and  suspended  .their 
licenses  for  ten  days.  The  captain  of  the 
Acme  was  James  c'anniff:  oX  the  John  M. 
\\ilson.   Robert   Mains.  Jr. 

Capt.  J.  F.  Whalen.  master  of  the  tug 
Cascade,  has  been  suspended  by  the  Cleve- 
land steamboiit  inspectors  for  fifteen  days 
on  account  of  his  collision  with  the  Peer- 
less during  a   race  for  a  tow  on  July  1. 


THE  MAHONING'S  DAMAGE. 
A  submarin  :>  diver  examined  the  bot- 
tom of  the  Archor  liner  Mahoning  at  De- 
troit yesterday.  He  found  a  rent  eight 
ffct  long  on  tie  port  side  nearly  amidship, 
and  a  bad  hob  on  the  starboard  side.  Sev- 
eral bottom  p  ates  were  also  found  badly 
dented.  After  temporary  repairs  had  been 
made  the  damaged  steamer  cleared  for

WOM,\NS  DRESS. 
A  large  numb' r  of  womtn  swetj)  the

wherever  they  p'.  abominable  filth.  Al- 
tf-nivits  are.  Indet^d.  often  made  by  woni'ii 
to  keep  their  dre,'-.<es  from  dragging,  Suc'i 
attempts  are  unu.'^ualiy  unsuccessful.  The 
management  of  a  long  gown  is  too  diffi- 
cult for  the  matority  of  Englishwomen. 
The  habit  has  ar  sen  of  seizing  the  upper 
part  of  the  skirt  .ind  holding  it  In  a  bunch

part  of  the  back  below  the  waist."  .nnd

term  "glutral  repion. "  This  practice  can 
be  commended  n-'ither  from  a  physioli.si-

We  strongly  protest  from  a  sanitary  point 
of  view  against  the  importation  into  pri- 
vate houses  of  skirts  reeking  with  or- 
dure, urine  and  pathogenic  microbes,  says 
the  Lancet.  For  walking  in  the  street  a 
short  skirt  would  be  werti  and  we  com-

fashions  in  dress.

AnAncodoteof  the  Author's  TUbo 
•f  Stnifilo. 

A  party  of  gentlemen  were  travellije  on 
the  railroad  the  other  day  wuen  ihe  jraln 
boy  dropped  a  copy  o(  Ople  Kcad's  latest 
novel  in  a  seat  oeside  them.  Ar.  old-tim<j 
telegrapher,  who  formed  one  of  the  party, 
remarked: 

"1  see  he  has  the  usual  a:Jts<)rtinent  cf 
Opie  Read's  stories.  1  11  always  remem- 
ber the  first  time  I  saw  Read."  he  con- 
tinued In  a  reminiscent  manner.  The  cm- 
ii.vorous  reader  saw  a  chance  for  a  story 
anJ  laid  down  the  comic  A-eekly  lie  was 
I'Ojiderlng  over. 

"\ts?"  he  remaiked  in  an  maiiely  In- 
terrogative   way.    "How    was    that?" 

This  was  enough  for  the  old-lime  tel- 
egrapher, who  had  a  moderatelv  good 
opinion  of  his  anecdotal  abilities,  so  he 
rolled  and  lit  a  fresh  cigarette  and  opened 
up  his  heart. 

"It  was  down  in  Paducah.  Ky..'  he  said. 
"I  was  stuck  there  one  summer  in  the 
Western  Union  office,  where  i  was  sup- 
posed to  pound  a  key.  One  afternoon  t 
was  sitting  In  the  office  of  one  of  the  news- 
papers, when  about  the  most  absurd  look- 
ing specimen  I  ever  saw  strolled  in.  The 
i^peclmen  aforesaid  was  about  six  feet 
high,  wore  a  frock  coat  of  the  vintage  of 
'C9,  one  of  these  shirts  wiih  a  wide,  roll- 
ing collar,  no  waistcoat  or  tie.  and  he  was 
barefoot.  He  carried  a  little  bundle  tied 
up  in  a  red  bandanna  handkerchief,  and 
picking  out  a  good  place  to  lay  the  bundle 
he  deptwited  himself  in  the  best  chair  the 
room  afforded  and  heaved  a  tremendous 
sigh.  Then  he  said  to  Ed  Leigh,  the  edi- 
tor,   and    myself.    'Evenin',    gentlemen." 

"We  had  watched  this  invasion  of  the 
satictum  with  a  good  deal  of  amusement, 
for  the  Invader  was  apparently  one  of  a. 
type  I  had  never  wtaried  of  studying,  the 
rural  Kentuckian,  and  we  returned  his 
salutation  with  due  gravity.  After  a  mo- 
ment or  so  the  invader  said:  "What's  the 
chance  for  a  man  gettin'  a  job  oh  this 
sheet?' 

"By  his  manner  of  expressing  himself 
we  saw  he  had  evldetly  been  about  & 
newspaper  office  to  some  extent,  and  Edi 
tor  Leigh  asked  him.  In  a  jocular  way, 
what  kind  of  a  job  he  vaited.  •Well,"  hy 
replied,  'anything  from  editoh  to  galley 
boy.  Society  stuff's  mv  white  alley, 
though,  an'  if  the  editoh  that  takes  in  the 
social  functions  of  this  settlement  is  need- 
In"  a  vacation  I'd  like  to  sub  fob  him." 

"Leigh  smiled  audibly  at  this,  which 
didn't  seem  to  embarrass  the  visitor  in 
the  least,  and  after  a  few  questions  Leigh 
told  him  he  could  have  a  few  days'  Tjork. 
Those  offices  were  not  worketl  to  death 
then,  and  almost  any  kind  of  a  man  could 
get  a  day  or  two  whene\  er  he  came 
around.  "The  big  fellow  sat  around  and 
gassed  a  while,  and  then  he  said  to  Leigh: 
'I'd  like  to  negotiate  about  two  bits  till  I 
have  somethin'  comin'.  You  see.  gentle- 
men, the  pike's  pretty  hard  travelln'.  an' 
I've  got  a  stone  bruise  on  my  heel  about 
as  big  as  a  but-nut.  an'  I'd  like  to  get  a 
little  arnica  or  spavin'  cure  to  kinder  ease 
it   up  a  little.' 

"Leigh  gave  him  the  two  "oits  and  the 
stranger  deuarted.  as  i  supposed  for  good. 
But  no:  he  was  back  bright  and  early 
next  morning,  and  the  line  of  copy  he  got 
up  for  the  paper  was  a  revelation  to  the 
Oldest  inhabitant.  It  was  like  a  streak  of 
sunshine  across  the  dirty  pages  of  that 
jiatent  inside,  and  it  wasn't  long  before 
the  public  began  to  see  it  too.  Well,  that 
.stranger  was  Onie  Read,  and  he  stayed 
with  Leigh  long  enough  to  make  his  payer 
better  known  through  that  section  than  it 
ever  was  lipfore.  I  left  before  he  dio.  and 
the  next  I  knew  of  him  he  was  intereslecj^ 
in  a  paper  down  in  Arkansas  and  was 
making  a  reputation  as  a  writer.  The  last 
time  I  saw  him  was  a  short  time  ago.  He 
was  giving  readings  In  Chicago  at  $liW« 
per.  I  hunted  him  up  and  sent  a  curd. 
When  1  was  taken  up  to  his  room  he  bad 
forgotten  me.  I  recalled  myself  to  him  and 
we  had  a  Jolly  time  for  a  couple  of  hours, 
talking  over  old  times  down  in  Paducah 
but  I'll  never  hear  of  Opie  Read  without 
thinking  of  the  barefooted  stranger  wiih 
the  stone  bruise  'bout  as  big  as  a  bufnut. 
who  came  Into  the  office  In  Padjicah  that 
afternoon  with  ail  his  worldly  goods  lied 
Uji  in  a  bandanna  handkerchief,  and  not 
a  ver.v  big  one  at  that.  And  now  his  bank 
roll  wouldn't  go  in  a  peck  measure."

FRESH  FRUIT  POP. 
Boil  one  quart  of  filtered  water.  When 
cool  add  one  hox  of  washed  strawlierries 
or  any  prepared  fruit.  Stand  on  ice  two 
hour.s.  Prepare  the  jui?e  of  one  lemon 
and  two  oranges  and  add  to  the  berrie.^ 
and  water.  Put  the  mixture  through  a 
fine  wire  sieve,  mashing  the  berries  well 
to  remove  every  particle  of  juice.  To 
the  strained  liquor  add  quarter  of  a 
yeast  cake  and  half  a  cupful  of  granu- 
lated sugar.  Bottle  and  place  on  ice 
ftrty-eight  hours   before  using. 


PROFIT  IN  STRAWBERRIES. 

It  is  said  that  a  person  with  a  small 
garden  at  Manhattan.  Kan.,  set  nut  1025 
plants  and  sold  the  products,  keeping 
an  accr-unt  of  reeeipts  and  expenditures. 
These  plants  occupied  one-sixth  of  an 
.'?cre.  On  this  it  is  officially  aniiounred 
that  in  Kansa.s,  strawberry  growing  will 
net  the  cultivator  $796  an  acre  clear  of 
ever?,  thing,  says  Meehan's  Monthly.  One 
might  readily  show,  by  taking  a  square 
yard  instead  of  a  larger  tract,  that  very 
much  mere  than  that  could  be  obtained 
"per  acre,"  yet  it  is  safe  to  say  that  no 
one  ever  has.  or  ever  will,  realize  a  clear 
profit  of  $796  ner  acre  from  rtraw- 
berrfcs. 


FATTENING  THEM. 

Throughout  the  empire  of  Morocco 
and  in  Tunis  there  are  villages  where 
the  elder  members  of  the  adult  popula- 
tion follow  professionally  the  pursuit  of 
fattening  young  ladies  for  the  matri- 
monial market  of  Barbary.  The  Moors, 
like  the  Turks  and  most  other  Orientals, 
give  a  decided  jireference  to  "moon 
fa::ed"  wives  over  lean  ones,  and  are 
more  sclicitious  as  to  the  number  rf 
pounds  which  their  lirides  weigh  than 
about  the  stock  of  accomplishments  they 
possess. 

A  girl  is  put  tinder  the  process  of  fat- 
tening when  she  is  about  12  yeais  of 
age.  Her  hands  are  tied  behind  her, 
ar.d  she  is  seated  on  a  carpet  during  so 
many  hours  every  day,  while  her  "papa" 
stands  over  her  with  a  matraque.  or  big 
stick,  and  her  mother  at  times  peps  into 
her  mouth  a  ball  of  cotiscoussou.  or  stiff 
maize  poriidge.  kneaded  up  with  grease 
and  just  large  enough  to  be  sv  allowed 
without  the  patient  chokini^. 

If  the  unfortunate  girl  declines  to  be 
stuffed,  she  is  compelled,  so  that  ere  long 
the  poor  girl  resigns  herself  to  the  tor- 
ture and  gulps  down  the  boluses  lest 
she  should  be  beaten.  In  Brazil  corpu- 
lence is  also  considered  the  essential 
point  of  female  beauty,  and  the  great- 
est compliment  that  can  be  paid  to  a 
Brazilian  lady  is  to  tell  her  that  she 
grows  fatter  and  fairer  every  day. 

ADVANCE  OF  TIME. 
The  age  of  man,  we  are  told,  is  three 
score  years  and  ten.  From  25  to  40,  If  the 
health  be  good,  no  material  alteration  is 
obser\-ed.  From  thence  to  50  the  change 
is  greater.  Fifty-five  to  60.  the  alteration 
startles:  still  we  are  not  bowed  down  In 
the  earliest  periods  of  our  life  the  body 
strengthens  and  keeps  up  the  mind;  In 
the  later  stages  of  it  the  reverse  takes 
place,  and  the  mind  keeps  up  the  body: 
a  formidable  dutv  this,  and  keenly  felt  bv 
both,  says  the  Scottish-American.  Such 
Is  Time  3  progres!*.

BLUE  FOR  BRUNEHES. 

"(^ertaln  colors  used  to  be  thought  be- 
coming to  certain  styles  fif  women  when 
I  was  young  enough  to  think  about  sueVi 
matters."  she  s.iid.  as  they  sat  down  to 
lunch  111  the  palm  rnom  of  the  hotel,  re- 
lates the  New  York  Sun,  "'but  since  my 
hair  became  too  gray  to  make  much  dif- 
ference what  color  1  wore  there  seems  ro 
have  been  an  entire  change  in  that  direc- 
tion. Only  a  few  moments  ago  thi-  pro- 
prietor of  the  sm.nrtest  Ixiiinet  shop  en 
the  avenue  told  me  th;it  nuthing  was  su 
much  the  proper  color  now  for  a  brunette 
as  blue.  Now  If  there  is  one  tradition  I 
had  about  dressing,  it  was  tliat  blondes 
should  wear  blue,  while  red  and  yellow, 
together  with  pink,  were  reserved  for  the 
brunettes. 

"I  thought  there  must  have  been  some 
change  in  those  old  rules  of  looks  when  I 
met  a  young  girl  the  other  day  who  was 
not  a  beauty,  although  she  had  some  good 
points.  Her  glossy,  wavy  black  hair,  her 
clear  dark  complexion  and  deep  gray  eyes 
were  all  attractive,  and  if  she  had  dressed 
properly  she  might  have  been  a  very  good 
looking  girl.  But  she  thought  too  much 
about  what  was  the  smartest  thing  to 
wear  tn  worry  herself  over  what  was 
merely  becnmincr.  The  day  I  saw  her  she* 
had  on  a  beautiful  lace  waist  edged  with 
pale  blue  satin.  It  was  straight  from  a 
fashionable  and  expensive  dressmaker's 
and  was  above  criticism  in  Itself.  But 
that  blue  satin  trimming  spoil»-d  tver>-  bit 
of  natural  brunette  beauty  the  girl  had. 
As  I  looked  at  her.  1  could  not  hein  think- 
ing how  different  the  effect  would  have 
been  if  she  had  stuck  to  yellow,  for  in- 
stance, a  co'.or  that  so  few  women  can 
wear  becomingl.v,  or  pink.  Then  she  would 
have  had  onlv  a  beautiful  waist,  but  one 
that  showed  her  looks  to  the  be-st  advan- 
tage. ' 

"1  knew  her  well  enough  to  ask  her  whv 
In  the  world  she  had  selected  blue  of  all 
.-"olors  in  the  woKd.  when  yellow  and  jdnk 
were  so  becoming  to  her.  Then  she  toid 
me  that  no  color  was  so  warm  now  for 
brunettes  as  blue,  and  that  she  did  not 
rare  a  rap  whether  rr  not  the  color  w::s 
becomlne  to  her  so  long  as  It  was  the 
prop«-r  thing."'

Great  consternation  was  felt  by  the 
friends  of  M.  A.  Hogarty.  of  Lexington, 
Ky..  when  they  saw  he  was  turning  yel- 
low. His  skin  slowly  changed  color,  also 
his  eyes  and  hf  suffered  terribly.  Hw 
malady  was  Y'ellow  Jaundice.  He  was 
treated  by  the  best  doctors,  but  without 
benefit.  Then  he  was  advised  to  try  Elec- 
tric Bitters,  the  wonderful  stomach  and 
liver  remedy,  and  he  writes:  "After  tak-

Democratic,  to  enact  and  perfect  it,  and 
as  it  stands  today  it  is  pronounced  valid 
and  constitutional  by  the  courts.  Undt  r

his  begim  proceedings  against  the  Consol- 
idated Transit  company,  which  has  caused 
all  the  lal>or  troubles  in  St.  Louis,  attack-

which  the  consolidation  of  the  different

the  charter  void.  A  successful  termination 
of  the  suit  will  result  in  a  <'fimplele  ois-

having  the  charter  of  the  consolidated  con- 
cern declared  void  is  that  of  overcapi-

attorney  general  be  successful  in  this  at-

military     ability 

shown  by  the  Boers.  According  to  the 
rules  laid  down  by  military  experts,  the 
Boers  should  have  been  lirought  to  terms 
in  a  three-months"  campaign,  and  this  was 
what  Gen.  Buller  thought  when  he  predict- 
ed that  he  woulil  eat  Christmas  dinner  in 
Pretoria.  But  the  British  found  it  neces- 
sary to  senil  to  South  Africa  the  largest 
arm.v  of  modern  times,  and  still  the  Boers 
remain  »mcon<iuered.  There  was  a  second 
awakening  when  Admiral  Seymour  was 
turned  back  in  his  march  upon  Pekin. 
The  powers  supiK)sed  that  the  Boxers 
would  retire  as  Seymour  advanced,  and 
that  the  rescue  of  the  foreigners  in  Pekin 
would  take  on  somewhat  the  character  of  a 
military  parade.  The  turning  back  of  Sey- 
mour was  a  painful  surprise.  It  was  the 
more  painful  as  it  was  effected  with  a  dis- 
play of  resources  which  no  one  had  sup- 
posed the  Chinese  to  possess.  TTie  last  that 
had  been  heard  of  the  Boxers  represented 
them  as  making  a  great  display  of  courage 
with  bows  and  arrows  as  weapons.  But 
Seymour  found  his  2i)00  men  opjwsed  by 
soldiers  Who  not  only  had  Krupp  cannon 
and  Mauser  guns,  hut  knew  how  to  use 
them.  Since  that  discovery  every  estimate 
of  the  force  necessary  to  march  upon  Pe- 
kin has  l»een  greater  than  the  last  previous 
one.  There  is  no  douht  that  the  allies 
made  a  mistake  in  firing  upon  the  Taku 
forts.  The  United  States  is  not  guilty  of 
participation  in  this  blunder,  and  for  this 
fortunate  state  of  affairs  we  must  thank 
Admiral  Kempff,  who  displayed  excellent 
judgment  in  refusing  to  fire  upon  the  forts 
of  a  nation  with  which  we  were  at  peace. 
Possibly  the  allies  would  not  have  commit- 
ted the  mistake  if  they  had  known  what 
means  of  defense  the  forts  possessed.  "The 
first  awakening,"  says  the  San  Francisco 
Bulletin,    "was   at    the   expense   of  Great 


A  GREAT  MECORU, 

The  annual  report  of  the  Northern  Pa- 
cific railroad  for  the  fiscal  year  just 
closed  shows  that  the  road  has  made  a 
banner  record  on  gross  earnings,  the 
figures  reaching  nearly  $30,000,000.  This  is 
a  magnificent  showing,  presenting  a 
gain  of  over  $4,000,000  for  the  year.  The 
earnings  of  the  main  system  for  the 
past  year  have  been  $29,98.3,000.  When 
the  dividends  on  preferred  and  common 
stock  have  been  paid  there  will  be  a 
surplus  of  $1,936,245.  which  would  have 
paid  an  extra  dividend  on  common  stock 
of  1  per  cent  had  the  directors  seen  fit  to 
declare  it.  In  view  of  the  crop  situation 
and  the  possible  need  of  a  larger  surplus, 
the  dividend  was  not  declared.  The  fig- 
ures show  that  the  operating  expenses 
for  the  fiscal  year  were  47.7  per  cent  of 
the  gross  earnings.  The  operating  ex- 
1  enses  were  slightly  heavier  than  in  the 
year  preceding,  when  the  ratio  was  47.4. 
In  1898  the  ratio  was  46.9  per  cent.  Under 
it?  present  management  the  Northern 
Pacific  has  experienced  a  wonderful 
growth  in  business,  and  it  is  now  classed 
among  the  most  prosperous  roads  in  the 
country. 

In  this  connection  it  is  worthy  of  note 
that  the  sum  of  about  $110,000,000  will  be 
distributed  this  month  in  the  form  of  in- 
terest or  bonds  and  dividends  on  stocks. 
The  dividends  cover  the  half  year  from 
January  to  July.  The  largest  single  Item 
i.^  interest  on  railroad  bonds,  whicii 
amounts,  according  to  the  New  York 
Herald,  to  $49,746,791.  The  aggregate  of 
dividends  on  railroad  stocks  for  the 
same  period  is  $17,32,039.  Dividends  on 
industrials,  as  the  trust  combinations 
are  called,  amounted  to  $22,777,865,  but 
the  interest  on  industrial  bonds  amount- 
ed for  the  six  months  to  only  $3,794,815. 
The  estimated  dividends  of  the  banks  of 
New  York  for  the  half  year  are  $1,748,- 
500.  It  seems,  therefore,  that  railroads 
are  the  greatest  single  source  of  income 
for  the  American  people,  and  that  bonds 
are  preferred  as  investments  to  owner- 
ship in  the  roads.  One  reason  for  this 
choice  doubtless  is  that  bonds  are  less 
easily  passed  over  by  the  management 
than  shares  in  the  corporation.  When 
default  Is  made  in  the  interest  on  bonds 
the  property  goes  into  the  hands  of  a 
receiver,  while  dividends  may  be  passed 
without  other  loss  than  a  possible  depre- 
ciation in  the  market  value  of  the 
shares. 


SUGAR  MAY  GO  HIGHER. 

The  opinion  is  expressed  by  the  Denver 
Post  that  the  protection  which  the  sugar 
trust  enjoys  under  the  Dingley  tariff 
and  by  which  it  has  been  enabled  to  ad- 
vance the  selling  price  of  its  oroduct 
within  the  past  few  weeks  from  $5.20  ti 
$6.10  ner  100  r>ounds  will  admit  of  an- 
other increase,  as  will  be  observed  by 
comr>arine  the  tariff  duty  with  the 
present  sugar  price.  The  rate  of  per- 
centage ad  valorem  in  the  Dingley  bill 
amounts  to  68.28  on  beet  sugar  and  74.61 
where  tfie  beet  sugar  comes  from  a 
country  which  pays  a  bounty.  This  ad 
valorem  percentage  of  74.61  is  therefore 
applicable  to  all  beet  sugar  that  could  "oe 
imported  from  Europe.  In  other  words, 
it  excludes  the  imported  article  to  that 
extent  and  permits  the  sugar  trust  to 
advance  the  selling  price  of  its  product 
to  the  consumer  to  the  same  extent. 

"With  nj  duty  on  sugar  the  surplus 
beet  sugar  manufactured  in  Europe 
could  bt  imported  to  this  country  and 
sold  at  reasonable  rates.  With  a  tariff 
duty  of  74.61  i>er  cent  of  the  value  of  the 
article,  importation  is  out  of  the  que»- 
tion,  considering  that  freight  and  in- 
surance charges  have  t3  be  added  to  thi.' 
original  cost  of  production.  The  sugar 
trust,  therefore,  can  advance  the  sellins 
I)rice  to  the  limit,  including  freight  and 
other  charges,  since  all  competition  at 
home  has  been  removed  and  none  from 
abroad  can  come  in. 

The  sugar  trust,  it  may  be  remarked, 
has  njw  as  complete  a  monopoly  in  its 
Ime  as  the  Standard  Oil  trust,  and  can 
squeeze  the  American  people  at  pleasure. 
Do  the  people  want  to  retain  a  law  that 
makes  these  extortions  i)ossible?  The 
Philadelphia  platform  says  that  the 
Dingley  tariff  is  just  the  real  thing  and 
must  be  continued  in  force.  In  his  speech 
of  acceptance  President  McKinley  said 
nothing  about  the  trusts,  and  as  he  did 
not  condemn  them,  the  fair  inference  is 
that  he  favors  them,  particularly  as 
Mark  Hanna  has  said  that  "'trusts  are  a 
giod  thing,"  If  the  Republican  party 
had  desired  to  curb  the  power  of  the 
trust.s  and  to  stop  their  robbery  of  the 
people,  it  would  have  taken  effective 
action  at  the  last  session  of  congress  by 
repealing  the  tariff  duties  on  articles 
controlled  by  the  trusts. 


THE  C.4SE  OE  PORTO  REVO, 

•Alls  Well  in  Porto  Rico"  was  the  title 
of  an  editorial  article  in  the  News  Tri- 
bune yesterday.  It  went  on  to  say  that 
the  people  of  Porto  Rico  have  not  com- 
plained of  the  effects  of  the  Porto 
Rican  tariff  bill  and  that  "the  loud  wail 
raised  by  the  professional  howlers  for 
political  purposes,"  has  ceased.  It 
added:  "The  Porto  Rican  people,  not 
only  justly  but  liberally  and  generously 
treated  by  the  United  States,  were  per- 
fectly satisfied  with  the  legislation  en- 
acted by  congress." 

Just  how  well  the  Porto  RIcans  are 
.satisfied  with  their  condition  as  the  re- 
sult of  American  legislation  may  be 
judged  from  a  news  article  which  ap- 
peared on  the  front  page  o  fthe  News 
Tribune  today.  It  was  a  dispatch  sent 
by  the  Associated  Press  from  San  Juan. 
Porto  Rico,  and  not  the  product  of  the 
partisan  think-tank  that  overflows  the 
News  Tribune's  editorial  page.  The  dis- 
patch tells  at  length  of  an  enthusiastic 
i  celebration  by  the  Porto  Ricans  in  hon<ir 
'  of  St.  Jago,  the  patron  saint  of  Spain. 
Banners  and  buntinsr,  we  are  told,  were 


j  suspended  from  house  to  house,  covering" 
the  thoroughfai  es,  and  everywhere  the 
balconies  were  richly  dressed.  There 
was  no  attempt  whatever  to  display  the 
American  colors.  The  celebration  of  the 
Fourth  of  July  was  totally  eclipsed. 
There  were  many  cries  of  ""Viva  EIs- 
panola."  It  wa.s  apparent,  the  dispatch 
says,  that  the  celebration  had  been  ar- 
ranged to  eclipse  that  of  the  Fourth  of 
July,  which  was  scarcely  observed  at 
all  in  Porto  Rico.  A  prominent  Porto 
Rican,  discussing  the  celebration  from 
that  point  of  vh-w,  said: 

"Our  people  should  not  be  blamed  by 
the  Americans  for  expressing  their  feel- 
ings in  this  way.  The  United  States 
constitution  has  not  been  extended  to 
the  island.  The  privileges  of  citizen- 
ship have  been  denied  them.  In»sucli 
circumstances  Porto  Ricans  cannot  ap- 
preciate American  institutions  and  na- 
turally would  not  observe  American  holi- 
days." 

This  Is  a  vastly  different  story  from 
what  the  McKinley  organs  have  been 
representing  as  the  actual  state  of  affairs 
in  Porto  Rico.  If  the  people  there  were 
satisfied  with  their  treatment  by  this 
country,  they  would  not  be  giving  up  a 
whole  day  to  an  enthusiastic  celebration 
of  a  Spanish  holiday  and  shouting  "Viva 
Espanola." 

But  what  else  can  be  expected?  As 
Mr.  Towne  said  in  a  recent  si)eech  at 
Lincoln,  "we  walked  across  Porto  Rico 
on  a  carpet  of  fl  iwers  spread  by  the  con- 
fident enthusiasm  of  the  inhabitants, 
and  we  have  compelled  them  to  walk 
upon  thorns  in  return.  Our  general 
promised  these  people  our  own  'immuni- 
ties and  privileges,'  and  we  have  devised 
for  them  peculiar  burdens  and  dejtriva- 
tlons."  It  would  be  strange  if  such  treat- 
ment caused  them  to  be  enamored  of 
American  legislation  and  government. 

It  was  brought  out  m  liie  iiouse  of  com- 
nnons  tlie  other  day  that  over  12.i'00  English 
trccps  have  been  sent  to  Scuth  .\tnca 
since  the  capture  of  Pretoria.  The  war 
was  ended  then  about  as  much  as  our  war 
In  the  Philippines  was  ended  with  the 
capture  of  Tarlac.  People  who  are  fighting 
for  liberty  never  know  when  they  are 
whipped— and  this  is  true  of  all,  whatever 
the  color  of  the  skiril  The  latest  in-'ws 
from  South  Africa  further  indicates  that 
the  war  is  far  from  being  over,  and  tlio 
idea  is  gaining  hold  throughout  Etigland 
that  because  of  It  the  empire  will  play  a 
minor  part  in  tht?  Chinese  imbroglio. 

It  seems  to  be  agreed  now  in  England 
that  the  cost  of  the  South  African  war 
was  greatly  underestimated.  At  the  out- 
break in  October  it  was  said  in  i)ariia- 
ment  that  the  cost  would  be  from  $.W.t)0O,- 
00<l  to  $55,000,000,  and  that  sum  was  bor- 
rowed. In  February  $«>5,000,0u0  more  was 
voted,  and  this  did  not  provide  for  half 
the  bills  of  the  war  to  that  date.  By 
March  the  estimate  had  risen  to  $215,000,- 
000  above  the  "normal"  expenditure,  and 
sinct  then  the  cost  has  been  Inci  easing 
ratiier  than  diminishing.  it  is  likel.v, 
il.inks  the  London  Speaker,  that  in  the 
end  Lord  Tweedmouth's  pesoiinistic  es- 
timate of  $750,000,000  will  not  be  far  out  of 
the  way.  This  would  be  equal  to  $15,000  for 
each  Boer  conquered— and  they  are  not 
conquered  yet.

McKinley  policy  of  imperialism.     Recent-

Governor  Crane,  of  Mass.ichusetts  does 
not  put  much  faith  in  formal  reviews  of 
the  state  militia,  and  therefore  surprised 
the  T'lassachu.sects  troops  by  ai^pearing 
in  their  cmp  the  other  day  unannounced 
and  ordering  an  impromptu  review.  Other 
governors  might  profitably  follow  this  ex- 
ample. 


In  chronicling  a  recent  order  for  bar- 
reled pork,  received  from  Port  Artiiur, 
China,  at  the  Chicago  stockyards,  the 
Journal  of  that  city  says:  "Did  you  ever 
think  what  a  great  part  that  evil-smeil- 
Ing,  muddy,  smoky  district  south  of  Thir- 
ty-ninth street  and  west  of  Halsled  play.4 
in  international  politics?  Did  you  ever 
consider  that  there  is  not  a  govt  rnment 
in  the  world  that  could  move  an  army 
satisfactorily  without  calling  upon  t.':o 
Chicago  packers  for  help?  When  the  cziir 
pushes  a  brigade  to  the  Siberian  frontier, 
when  the  viceroy  of  Indian  rushes  a  force 
to  the  Afghan  borders,  when  Gen.  Rob- 
erts dispatches  a  force  to  a  distant  point 
in  the  Transvaal,  cars  and  wagons  carry 
huge  loads  of  the  products  of  'the  yards." 
When  the  German  emperor  addresses  the 
marines  of  a  warship  about  to  depart  for 
China  his  majestic  voice  is  almost 
drowned  by  the  rumble  of  trucks  carrying 
piles  of  cans  marked  with  the  all-compel- 
ling name  of  Armour  or  Swift.  The  real 
sinews  of  war  are  the  sinews  done  up  :n

The  total  population  of  Chin.a  proper  is 
put  by  the  Statesman's  Year  Book"'  at 
3S6,0<30,000,  but  with  the  dependencies,  such 
as  Manchuria,  Mongolia  and  other  prov- 
inces, the  total  population  is  402,6S0,00'1, 
and  t ha  area  4.21S.401  square  miles.  There 
is  a  good  deal  of  guess  work  about  the 
population,  but  the  figures  are  those  gen- 
erally credited  by  geographers.  The  sta- 
tistics of  the  foreign  population  in  China 
estimate  for  1899  a  total  of  17,072.  This  in- 
cludes the  missionaries,  the  diplomats 
and  the  business  representatives.  The 
British  in  China  number  5562,  the  Ameri- 
cans 2335,  the  Japanese  2440  and  the  Ger- 
mans 1100.  The  foreign  population  of 
China  and  the  number  of  those  doing  busi- 
ness in  China  have  nearly  doubled  since 
1S93.  This  growth  is  believed  the  largest 
factor  in  inspiring  the  present  revolt. 
There  are  seventy  American  business 
firms  represented  in  China  and  401  Eng-

the  Chinese  trade  and  the  United  States 
11  per  cent. 

Owing  to  carelessness  in  proof  reading 
an  annoying  error  occurred  in  the  article 
in  The  Herald  yesterday  regardinp^  street 
car  transfers.  As  printed,  the  article  said: 
"The  complaints  made  in  respect  to  the 
new  transfer  points  undoubtedly  were 
caui-ed  by  a  thorough  uitilcrrttanding  of 
the  new  plan."'  \\'hat  The  Htra'.d  intend- 
ed to  say  was  that  the  complaints  were 
undoubtedly  due  to  a  misunderstanding 
by  the  public  of  the  new  plan.  There  is  no 
doubt  that  when  the  people  become  thor- 
cuglily  ac  luainted  with  the  new  transfer 
system  there  will  be  general  satisfaction 
with  its  working,  because  it  Is  dejignod  to 
promote  the  comiort  of  the  patrons  of  the 
line. 


The  political  reporter  of  the  Minneapo- 
lis Tribune  came  to  Duluth  this  week  and 
spent  a  whole  day  looking  for  "gold  Dem- 
ocrats" who  will  vote  for  McKinley  this 
year.  He  found  two— J.  W.  Hunt  and  City 
Attorney  Mitchell,  the  latter  chairman  of 
the  Sixth  district  Republican  congression- 
al committee!  If  the  Tribune's  young 
man  had  been  searching  for  former  Re- 
publicans who  votetl  for  McKinley  in  1*96, 
but  intend  to  vote  for  Bryan  this  year,  he 
could  have  secured  a  much  longer  list.

The  Rounder 


It  would  be  curious  if  the  district  court 
could  examine  nearly  a  thousand  appli- 
cants for  citizenship  without  something 
happening  that  bordered  on  the  Interest- 
ing. There  were  .several  odd  iiappenings 
during  the  range  .sessions  of  the  district 
court,  though  there  cannot  begin  to  be  as 
many  funny  things  as  there  used  to  be 
when  the  court  put  the  applicants  through 
a  course  of  sprouts  on  their  acquaintance 
with  the  institutions  of  this  country.  Then 
it  used  to  be  not  uncommon  to  have  some- 
(jne  say.  in  answer  to  questions,  that  this 
state  is  ruled  by  a  count  or  by  Page  Mor- 
ris or  (^barley  Towne,  these  two  names 
being  then  in  fre(iuent  use  owing  to  the 
prevalence  of  a  congressional  campaign. 

At  Hibbing  during  the  session  one  rather 
ludicrous  thing  hai)pened.  One  of  the  wil- 
nes.ses  in  behalf  of  an  applicant  for  citi- 
zenship was  a  Hibbing  saloon  keeper. 
When  asked  what  he  knew  of  the  appli- 
cant and  how  long  he  had  known  him  he 
said: 

"I  know  him  five  year:  five  year  two 
mon's.  I  open  a  saJl-oon  then,  and  he 
C9me  in  first  day.  He  come  in  second  day, 
third  day,  almost  every  day,  sometimes 
two  three  times  a  day.  He  been  awful 
good  man."' 

The  accent  on  the  word  "awful,"  follow- 
ing so  closely  on  the  witness'  description 
of  the  applicants  faithful  attention  to 
the  patronage  of  his  "sall-oon"  was  very 
funny. 

*  *    * 

One  applicant  who  claimed  to  have  come 
to  this  country  before  he  was  IS  years  of 
age.  and  who,  if  that  was  true,  was  en- 
titled to  second  papers  without  the  pre- 
liminary of  first  papers,  had  some  trouble 
to  produce  witnesses  who  had  known  him 
since  that  time,  which  was  ten  years  ago. 
One  man  came  up  and  solemnly  said  that 
he  had  known  the  applicant  for  ten  years 
and  that  he  had  resided  in  this  country  all 
that  time.  Judge  Cant  gave  him  rather  a 
sharp  cross-examination,  as  a  result  of 
which  it  appeared  that  the  witness  him- 
self had  been  In  this  country  only  eight 
years,  so  that  it  was  impossible  for  him 
to  have  known  the  applicant  ten  years  in 
this   country. 

Another  witness  was  about  to  start  in  on 
the  story  of  how  he  had  known  the  appli- 
cant ten  years  when  he  hesitated.  Ap- 
proaching Judge  Cant  confidentially  he 
asked : 

"What  would  be  the  result  if  I  should 
swear  that  I  had  known  him  ten  years,  if 
I  hadn't?" 

"That  would  be  a  very  serious  matter," 
replied  the  court.  "<»nd  I  should  advise 
you   not   to  do  it."  ' 

The  witness  did  not  continue  his  story, 
and  the  applicant   was  rejected. 

*  *    * 

Judge  Cant  turned  down  quite  a  number 
of  applicants,  and  it  is  said  that  none 
that  were  not  actuall.v  entitled  to  citizen- 
ship were  admitted.  He  showed  quite  a 
faculty  for  searching  out  weak  spots  in 
the  applicants  and  probing  them  to  the 
bottom.

DYSPEPSIA  CURE 


TRAVELERS  AND  THE  TRUSTS/^ 

Pittsburg  Post:  All  are  familiar  with  the 
fact  that  no  class  of  business  men  or  em- 
ployes of  business  interests  have  .suffered 
to  as  great  an  extent  as  the  commercial 
travelers  have  from  the  trusts.  Every 
trust  of  note  in  the  country  has  thrown  a 
greater  or  less  number  of  them  out  of  em- 
ployment. Their  numbers  have  been  re- 
duced one-half,  and  there  have  been  cor- 
responding reductions  in  salaries.  Compe- 
tition in  price  and  quality  was  the  rock  on 
which  the  avocation  of  the  commercial 
traveler  was  built.  The  trusts  have  de- 
stroyed competition  and  the  price  is  regu- 
lated by  central  authority  emanating  from 
the  trusts.  With  the  commercial  travelers 
the  hotels  have  suffered  largely,  and  the 
loss  has  gone  into  every  city  and  town  in 
the  country.  At  a  recent  convention  of 
toe  Commercial  Travelers'  as.sociation,  in 
a  speech  against  trusts.  President  Dowe 
states  the  case  with  much  force  when  he 
declared: 

"The  record  of  rotten  and  corrupt  meth- 
ods, the  sympathy  for  and  support  ot 
trusts  by  the  Republican  party,  in  connec- 
tion with  other  important  issues,  leads  me 
to  state  that  while  I  do  not  consider  that 
all  Republicans  in  official  life  arc  all  bad, 
nor  that  all  the  Democrats  are  entirely 
good,  I  am  bound  to  declare,  in  honesty, 
that  the  Democratic  party  is  the  only  one 
standing  today  squarely  upon  a  platform 
of  "equality  for  all  and  special  privileges 
for  none,'  and  for  competition  as  a  uni- 
versal principle.  The  Republicans  have 
.given  evidence  that  they  believe  in  only  a 
.limited  competition  and  in  special  class 
privileges." 

This  briefly  outlines  the  political  platform 
of  the  league,  almost  every  member  of 
which  is  arrayed  against  the  trusts,  irre- 
spective of  party  affiliations.  Four  years 
ago  the  Commercial  Travelers'  association 
was  one  of  the  strongest  forces  in  the  field 
in  favor  of  'McKlnle.v.  They  were  a  re- 
markable efficient  bod.v  of  canvassers, 
reaching  as  they  did,  every  country  store 
in  the  land,  as  well  as  the  larger  mercan- 
tile establishments  in  tjwr.s  and  cities.  But 
they  have  had  enough  of  McKinleyism 
with  the  fact  staring  tliem  in  the  face  that 
under  his  trust-fostering  administration 
S0(»  trusts  have  been  established  with  $5,- 
000.000,000  of  capitalization.  These  trusts 
practically  control  the  purcha.se  and  sale  of 
products,  so  that  while  the  commercial 
travelers  were  numbered  by  the  thousands 
when  they  voted  and  worked  for  McKinley, 
they  are  now  numbered  by  hundreds.  They 
have  been  forced  out  of  liusiness.  out  ot 
work  and  out  of  wages  by  the  operation.- 
of  the  trusts,  which  became  a  natural  and 
inevitable  result  of  McKinley's  administra- 
tive policy.  The  Dingley  law  is  the  mother 
of  trusts.  The  Philadelphia  convention  in- 
dorsed the  Dingley  law  and  Insisted  il 
must  be  maintained.  That  means  the  es- 
talishment  and  maintenance  of  trusts.  Tlif 
commercial  travelers  will  not  vote  and 
work  in  1900  as  thev  did  in  ISSti.  and  there 
are  said  to  be  1,000,(K)0  of  them  at  work  or 
idle,  in  the  United  States,  with  a  very  com- 
pact organization. 

THE  OUTLOOK  IN  ILLINOIS. 

San  FrancLsco  Examiner:  So  the  Repub- 
licans are  claiming  Illinois.  Well,  that  is 
a  sample  of  their  other  foolish  claims.  Illi- 
nois is  about  as  certain  to  go  Democratic 
as  Texas,  and  the  Republicans  have  made 
it  so.  There  is  no  state  in  the  Union  where 
the  plain  people  are  stronger  than  in  Illi- 
nois, and  there  the  trusts  are  engaged  ii". 
the  most  infamous  oppression  of  labor  ever 
known  In  this  country.  The  employing 
contractors  of  Chicago,  who  are  all  Re- 
publicans, are  banded  together  to  deny 
work  to  any  man  who  refuses  to  give  up 
his  union.  It  is  not  a  question  of  hours 
or  pay  that  keeps  up  the  bosses'  lockout, 
but  a  stolid  refusal  on  the  part  of  the 
building  trust  to  treat  with  any  of  tlie 
locked  out  men  until  they  have  renounced 
their  union.  Allied  to  the  contracting 
Iwsses  are  the  Iron  trust,  glass  trust,  nail 
trust,  plumbers'  supply  trust,  brick  tru.st, 
cement  trust  and  lumber  trust,  and  they 
absolutely  refuse  to  suppl.v  any  material 
to  a  contractor  who  employs  union  men. 
Think  you  that  a  union  contractor  can 
obtain  material  from  Milwaukee  or  some 
other  adjacent  city?  Oh.  no.  The  outside 
material  men  have  been  warned  that  if 
tliey  supjily  a  pound  of  material  for  Chi- 
cago the  trusts  will  sell  that  material  in 
their  cities  for  less  than  cost.  Fifty  thou- 
sand families  in  Chicago  have  starved 
through  the  winter,  and  are  dying  of  the 
heat  tills  summer,  because  the  bosses  arc 
trying  to  force  on  the  wage  workers  an 
industrial  slavery  worse  than  death.  The 
awful  horrors  of  an  Indian  famine  are 
going  on  right  in  the  heart  of  the  great 
(Christian  citv  of  Chicago,  and  years  from 
now  stunted"  women  and  men  will  be 
spoken  of  as  children  of  the  lockout  year 
as  they  spoke  of  "the  children  of  the  fam- 
ine" year  in  Ireland  some  time  ago.  The 
bos.«es  do  not  care  what  suffering  it  costs 
to  starve  the  white  men  of  Chicago  into 
subjection.  None  of  them  will  give  their 
daughters  smaller  diamonds  or  fewer 
dresses  this  year  on  account  of  the  lock- 
out. Their  protrts  in  the  past  have  been 
.so  enormous  that,  as  they  boast,  they  can 
all  afford  to  "lav  off  this  year  and  go  to 
Paris."  Will  the  Republicans  carry  Illi- 
nois with  r^.OOO  heads  of  starving  fairiilies 
living  on  nothing?  They  will  not,  and 
they  know  it.  And  all  the  millions  they 
propose  to  spend  wont  buy  the  votes  of 
the  locked  out  union  men.

Between  the  Republicans  and 
the  Popuiists-The  Vir- 
ginia Contest. 

From  The  Herald 
Washington  Bureau. 

Washington,  July  1:6.— (Special  to  Tho 
Herald.)— One  of  the  interesting  elec- 
tions of  this  summer  is  that  in  North 
Carolina,  which  will  occur  early  in 
August.  The  contes:  in  that  state  this 
year  has  been  one  of  excitement.  All 
sorts  of  rumors  are  current  regarding 
the  fusion  of  the  Reimbllcan  and  Popu- 
list's state  ticket.  Recently  Chairman 
Felton,  of  the  Republican  state  commit- 
tee, and  Senator  Hutler,  representing 
the  Populists,  had  a  lengthy  conference, 
and  it  has  been  conjectured  that  they 
were  arranging  a  combine  between  the 
two  parties  they  represent. 

The  conventions  of  lx»th  parties  placel 
a  great  deal  of  powi?r  in  the  hands  of 
their  chairmen.  It  is  believed  that  thev 
have  fused,  and  that  they  will  keep  the 
matter  dark  until  they  put  out  the 
tickets  election  day.  They  will  say  in 
effect:  "Here  is  what  your  leaders  have 
done.  This  is  what  we  have  agreed 
upon." 

The  fact  is  the  two  parties  have  all 
the  while  been  in  strait.'?.  Had  they 
fused  at  the  beginnifj  and  named  Cyru.* 
Thompson  for  governor,  there  are  many 
Piedmont  and  Western  Republicans 
who  would  have  said  they  would  not 
support  him,  Ijecause  he  is  a  Populist, 
while  on  the  other  hand,  had  Spencer 
Adams  been  named  as  the  joint  candi- 
date, then  the  Populists  would  not  have 
rallied  to  him. 

William  A.  Guthr  e,  who  four  years 
ago  was  Populist  nominee  far  governor, 
will  take  the  stump  in  favor  of  the 
franchise  amendment.  He  is  one  of  the 
very  ablest  stump  speakers  in  Nor'h 
Carolina.  He,  like  all  other  campaign- 
ers for  the  amendment,  will  speak  daily 
up  to  election  day. 

The  Populists  whc  have  been  out  o.i 
the  campaign,  men  li  <e  Cyrus  Thomp.'-'on 
and  Baylus  Cade,  who  is  Governor  Ka?- 
sell's  private  secret.iry,  have  come  in 
with  ne>vs  that  the}'  will  carry  a  long 
list  of  counties  for  tie  legislature,  and 
talked  as  if  they  wculd  actually  do  so. 
Such  a  belief  is  fatuous. 

It  is  said  by  North  Carolina  Republi- 
cans that  Senator  Butler  has  thrown 
himself  with  .such  a:'dor  into  this  cam- 
paign, which  with  him  means  political 
life  or  death,  that  he  has  mortgaged  all 
his  propeity,  and,  as  one  of  them 
phrased  it,  "put  himself  in  the  road"  to 
rai.=e  funds. 

The  question  of  the  registration  of  the 
Cherokee  Indians  in  Swain  county  has 
come  up.  A  registrer  refused  to  regis- 
ter them,  and  was  arrested  by  a  deputy 
marshal  and  brought  before  a  United 
States  commissioner,  who  bound  him 
over,  upon  the  affidavits  of  some  In- 
dians. Now  the  Indians  who  made  the 
affidavits  have  been  arrested.  The  fact 
is  the  commissioner  had  no  authority. 
The  United  States  circuit  court  of  ap- 
peals, in  1897,  Judge  Goff  delivering  th- 
opinion,  decided  that  these  Cherokee  In- 
dians are  not  citizens  of  the  United 
States.  Whether  th'?y  can  or  can  not 
vote  under  the  state  law,  it  is  very  clear 
that  the  registrars  csnnot  be  prosecuted 

under  the  federal  law. 
•    •    • 

The  political  contest  in  "Virginia,  so 
far  as  the  issues  are  concerned,  is  fully 
as  interesting  as  in  North  Carolina.  The 
situation  is  somewhat  similar. 

Do  what  they  may,  the  Democrats  in 
this  state  cannot  pnvent  the  work  of 
the  constitutional  convention  over- 
shadowing all  federal  issues  in  this  con- 
test. There  is  thus  far  comparatively 
little  interest  manifested  in  the  latter, 
while  the  proposition  to  disfranchise 
the  negroes  attracts  very  general  atten- 
tion. 

The  red-hot  campaign  in  North  Caro- 
lina, in  which  the  same  question  is  in- 
volved, is  quite  sure  to  have  some 
effect  in  "Virginia.  The  people  here  have 
practically  decided  tc  eliminate  the  col- 
ored vote  as  a  factoi-  in  politics.  The 
only  question  that  remains  is  how  this 
may  l>est  be  affected  without  running 
counter  to  the  federa  constitution.  Like 
the  North  Carolina  Democrats,  the 
leaders  have  committed  themselves  to 
the  policy  of  not  permitting  any  white 
illiterates  to  come  within  the  disfran- 
chising i)rovJsion.  Sc  the  question  now 
is.  how  this  promise  may  be  carried 
out  in  a  manner  which  may  meet  the 
test  of  the  federal  supreme  court. 

It  is  quite  certain  that  the  "grand- 
father" clause,  adopted  by  Louisiana, 
and  which  is  proposed  in  North  Caro- 
lina, will  not  tje  accepted  in  Virginia. 
Many  of  the  ablest  lawyers  In  the  state 
express  doubts  about,  the  constitution- 
ality of  this  provision  They  cannot  be- 
lieve, they  say,  that  w  hen  it  comes  to  be 
reviewed  by  the  court  of  last  resort  it 
will  pass  muster.  Aside  from  that 
view,  which  is  an  all-important  one,  the 
people  of  Virginia  do  not  appear  to  take 
to  the  idea  of  Inserting  into  their  con- 
stitution a  declaratiim  that  a  certain 
class,  and  a  certain  class  only,  are  to  be 
exempt  from  its  disfranchising  clause. 

The  whole  idea  of  this  scheme  is  ob- 
jectionable. It  is  quite  likely  that  be- 
fore Governor  Tyler  calls  the  legislature 
in  extra  session  in  January  some  other 
method  for  eliminatiig  the  negro  vot^ 
will  have  been  hit  ufon.  Several  plans 
are  suggested,  but  so  far  none  of  thes3 
appear  to  meet  the  objections  urged 
against  them.  One  proposition  is  to 
exempt  from  the  provisions  of  the  law- 
all  persons  who  served  the  state  in  war, 
and  the  sons  of  such  persons.  This 
would  let  in  all  the  illiterate  white  ex- 
Confederates  and  their  sons.  It  would. 
of  course,  permit  all  colored  and  white 
illiterates  who  served  in  the  Federal 
army  to  exercise  the  right  of  suflfrage. 
This  latter  call  would,  of  course,  be  so 
small  that  it  could  rot  begin  to  offset 
the  Confederates. 

Some  of  the  leaders,  but  compara- 
tively few,  are  disposed  to  adopt  the 
South  Carolina  provision,  which  requires 
an  educational  or  property  qualification. 
The  latter 'proposition,  though,  is  repug- 
nant to  the  Virginia  people,  and  will 
hardly  be  considered.  The  fact,  too, 
that  the  negroes  are  rapidly  becoming 
property  owners  would  suggest  a  very 
important  reason  from  a  political  stand- 
point for  not  adopting  this  idea. 

The  colored  people  in  this  state  al- 
ready own  one-twenty-sixth  of  all  the 
lands.  In  some  of  the  counties  this 
class  has  acquired  one-sixth,  and  in 
some  few  others  almost  one-third  of  the 
farm  property.  This  estimate,  too,  doe.-! 
not  include  the  farms  bought  by 
negroes,  and  upon  wtiich  only  partial 
payments  have  been  made.  When  these 
_  purchasers  are  considered,  it  would,  no  I 
■  doubt,  run  the  list  up  very  much  higher.  .

These  facts,  which  were  first  called  to 
public  attention  about  a  year  ago  are 
exciting  no  little  interest.  They  are  not 
only  an  important  consideration  in  deal- 
ing with  the  question  of  franchise,  but 
are  interesting  from  a  material  stand- 
point. The  time  is  not  far  off,  it.  may 
be.  when  the  negro  may  own  a  very  coi.- 
siderable  portion  of  the  landed  prop- 
erty of  the  state.  In  some  few  sections 
members  of  this  race  already  own  large 
farms,  which  they  are  conducting  in  ;• 
systematic  way  with  profit  to  them- 
selves. 

Another  i)hase  of  the  suffrage  ques- 
tion which  has  received  some  attention, 
but  which  does  not  alarm  the  advocates 
of  the  disfranchising  proposition,  is  the 
fact  that  the  educated  negroes  may 
pn-ve  to  h(dd  the  balance  of  power  in 
this  state  in  future  political  contests. 
With  application  of  the  most  risid  edu- 
tational  qualifications.  Virginia  would 
have  more  negro  voters  than  any  other 
state  in  the  South  possibly.  .lust  what 
this  number  would  amount  to  is  not 
definitely  estimated.  It  would,  how- 
ever, reach  very  large  figures.  With  the 
present  educational  advantages,  the 
negro  is  daily  qualifying  himself  to 
meet  this  proposed  demand  upon  him. 
Some  of  the  ablest  men  in  the  Dem  .- 
cratlc  party  admit  that  the  disfranchis- 
ing of  the  negro  promises  to  open  up  a 
new  political  era,  not  only  in  Virginia, 
but  in  the  whole  South.  They  will  not 
predict  when  this  will  come,  but  come 
it  will,  they  insist,  in  a  comparatively 
short  time.  With  the  negro  out  o<"  the 
way.  nothing,  some  of  these  gentlemen 
say,  will  prevent  the  white  people  f:"om 
dividing  upon  all  great  economic  and 
other  business  issues,  either  federal, 
slate,  or  local.  When  that  time  comes, 
then  the  educated  contingent  not  dis- 
quaiifitHl  may  possibly  play  an  import- 
ant part  in  determining  results  in  the 
South. 

The.=e  possibilities  of  the  future  are 
not.  however,  in  the  least  deterr'ug 
Democrats  from  carrying  out  their 
pledge,  made  in  the  Norfolk  convention 
and  in  the  proceeding  campalgji.  to  re- 
mrve  the  negro  from  politics  as  far  as 
it  can  be  done.

The  Ohio  Man. 

To  the  Editor  of  The  Herald: 

The  Herald  of  July  23  said:  "The  Ohio 
man  sometimes  misses  a  chance  to  get  an 
office.  This  is  shown  by  the  fact  that  an 
Indiana  man  has  been  nominated  for  gov- 
ernor of  West  Virginia." 

The  Republican  nominee  for  guberna- 
torial honors  Is  Hon.  A.  B.  White,  of  Park- 
ersburg,  W.  Va.  Mr.  White  resided  for 
years  in  Columbus.  Ohio,  and  1  am  of  the 
opinion  he  was  born  there,  but  am  not 
certain.  He  and  his  brothers  attended  col- 
lege somewhere  in  Indiana.  Mr.  White  is 
editor  of  the  Parkersburg  State  Journal, 
and  is  also  collector  of  internal  revenue  for 
the  district  of  West  Virginia.  He  is  a  .son 
of  Professor  White  of  arithmotic  fame,  the 
latter  residing  In  Columbus.    Truly  yours,

A  number  of  Duluth  people  have  In 
the  past,  and  the  very  recent  past, 
too,  sent  East  to  New  York  and  Chicago 
for  men  to  decorate  their  homes.  Un- 
doubtedly it  was  done  in  ignorance  of 
the  fact  that  there  is  right  here  in  Du- 
iutr  an  artist  whose  work  has  elicited 
much  favorable  comment  from  critics 
here  and  elsewhere  who  is  engaged  in 
this  very  line  of  work.  It  is  a  case 
where  some  of  the  spirit  that  prompted 
the  organizati<m  of  the  Home  Consum- 
eis'  League  a  few  years  ago  is  needed. 
The  artist  is  F.  Von  Luerzer.  His 
paintings  have  frequently  l>een  ex- 
hibited in  Duluth  and  the  character  of 
his  work  is  well  known.  Mr.  Von 
Luerzer  has  for  some  time  been  striv- 
ing to  obtain  a  foothold  in  the  line  of 
lK>use  decorating  but  is  much  dis- 
■  ■•uraged  at  the  outlook.  The  people 
n  ho  wish  such  work  done  seem  to  be 
possessed  with  the  idea  that  it  <'annot 
^'•'  dune  here  and  that  they  must  send 
outside  of  the  city  to  get  men  to  do  it. 


Second  Bis  Block  Built.

i Interest  is  being  taken  in  the  work  than 
t-ver  before.  This  is  natural,  for  the 
.--i:perstructure  of  the  pier  is  no  well 
along  that  the  public  can  easily  gain  an 
ii'ea  of  what  it  will  be  when  completed. 
The  season  thus  far  has  been  an  unusu- 
ally tine  one  for  work  such  as  this. 
There  has  been  very  little  rough 
V  eather,  and  it  has  always  come  at 
limes  when  it  could  not  hamper  work  t  >

FATALLY  SHOT. 

Superior  Saloonkeeper  Is  the 
Victim  of  Daring  Hold 
Up  Gang. 

Carl  Nelson,  a  saloonkeeper  at  the 
corner  of  Third  street  and  Lamborn 
avenue.  West  Superior,  was  shot  and 
rrblifd  by  two  masked  men  about  11 
o'clock  last  night.  It  is  believed  that  his 
wounds  will  prove  fatal.  According  to 
Nelson's  story,  two  sailor-like  men  en- 
tered his  place  and  demanded  that  he 
throw  up  his  hands.  He.  supposing  that 
they  were  jcking.  made  a  pass  at  one  <if 
them,  when  two  shots  followed.  One 
iullet  entered  his  neck,  on  the  left  side, 
and  came  out  at  the  right.  The  other 
entered  his  side,  the  revolver  being  held 
so  close  that  his  clothing  was  set  on  fnv 
i)y  the  flash.  When  passers-by  rushed 
into  the  rom  they  found  NeKson  blindl.v 
.-taggering  aixmt  covered  with  blood  but 
still  ci  ns.ious.  At  the  time  of  the 
shooting  there  were  two  other  men  in 
the  salo.-n.  hut  they  were  frightened  and 
tied,  notifying  the  first  policeman  that 
they  met  of  the  shooting.  The  robbers 
tapped  the  till  l)efore  their  flight,  but  g.>t 
a  small  amount  of  money.  The  Superior 
police  are  scouring  the  country  for  the 
desperadoes,  but  are  handicapped  in 
their  search  by  the  insufficient  descrip- 
tion of  the  men.  l)oth  being  masked.

PUN  AMENDED. 

Tlie  Capitalization    of   the 

Flour  Combine  Has  Been 

Reduced. 

New  York,  July  26. — At  a  meeting  of 
the  reorganization  committee  of  the 
Fnite*!  States  Flour  Milling  company  the 
plan  for  the  rehabilitation  of  the  com- 
pany was  amended  in  several  important 
particulars,  affecting  principally  the 
amount  of  issue  and  an^ilication  of  the 
newiv  created  securities. 

The  capitalization  of  the  company 
under  the  amended  plan  has  been  re- 
duced from  $2:J.OOO,000  to  $17,250,000.  This 
has  been  effected  by  reducing  tlie  au- 
thorized issue  of  first  mortgage  5  per 
cent  gold  bonds  from  $9,500,000  to  $5,750,- 
000.  and  of  pi-eferred  stock  from  $10,00o,- 
000  to  $6,900,000.  The  proposed  issue  of 
common  sttx-k  has  been  increased  from 
$:?.500.000  to  $4,600,000. 

Of  the  total  authorized  issue  of  $5,75'».- 
000  gold  bonds,  $3,489,000  are  to  be  issued 
and  the  remainder  are  to  be  held  in  r>- 
serve  to  retire  prior  liens  on  underlying 
property  and  for  reorganization  pur- 
poses. The  holders  of  the  present  bonds 
of  the  Flour  Milling  company  are  to 
take  the  preferred  stock  in  exchange  for 
their  securitv. 

It  is  said  that  the  amended  plan  will 
reduce  the  fixed  charges,  including  the 
sinking  fund  of  $45,000,  annually  to  $355,- 
100  instead  of  $430,810.  a  saving  in  this 
item  of  $75,100  annually. 


FOLEY 
RETURNS 


Reperis  on  His  First  Visit 

In  Two  Years  to  Rainy 

Lake  Country. 

MORE  MONEY  NEEDED 


That  Is  Principal  Necassily 
of  Ml  the  Mining  Pro- 
positions at  Present. 


J.  C.  Foley,  after  wliom  ilie  FuUy  mine 
in  the  Rainy  Hiver  district  was  named, 
was  in  the  city  yesterday,  from  a  three  or 
four  days'  \isit  at  the  propert.v.  Mr.  Fol>-.v 
says  he  retains  as  much  interest  as  ever  in 
the  mine,  although  it  is  created  by  an  Eng- 
lish s*yndlcate  known  as  the  Canadian 
Mines  Development  comi)any. 

Mr.  Foley  says  that  this  is  his  first  visit 
to  the  Seine  River  gold  lields  since  IS^S, 
and  that  he  was  called  up  there  this  time 
by  the  report   that  a   new  vein   had  been 

struck  in  No.  .'■  shaft  in  cross-cutting.  Mr 
Foley,  wl»o  fiom  hi.>»  many  years'  exper- 
ience in  the  Rain.v  I.,ake  count r.v  was 
thoroughly  familiar  with  the  formations  at 
No.  .■;.  said  the  report  puzzled  him,  for  he 
was  positive  that  there  were  but  six  par- 
allel veins  about  fifty  feet  apart  on  the  tive 
consolidated  claims.  Shaft  No.  5  was  the 
first  opened,  and  after  it  had  been  sunk 
some  ninety  feet,  the  fissure  vein  that  was 
running  from  $tJO  to  |7.'»  a  ton  appeared  to 
si)lit  and  vine  portion  bearing  to  the  i-ast 
apparentl.v  disappeared.  This  was  two 
years  ago  when  work  at  the  mine  was 
shut  down,  owing  to  the  disinclination  of 
those  interest-'d  toward  t)Utling  any  more 
money  into  the  mine  with  the  indications. 
After  two  years,  nearl.v,  of  hustling,  the 
new  company  was  organized  with  English 
capital  and  operations  began  again  at  the 
mine  last  March. 

At  that  time  Mr.  Foley  advocated  sinking 
the  shaft  to  a  depth  ot  :KM»  feet  and  cross- 
cutting  to  the  east.  Afer  going  down 
another  100  feet  the  company  could  not 
wait  to  go  any  further,  but  cross-cut  and 
struck  what  they  tiiought  was  the  new 
vein  at  a  distance  of  twenty-four  feet.  Mr. 
Foley  said  that  a  close  examination  t)f  the 
vein,  which  is  about  «  feet  S  inches  wide  at 
this  point,  satisfied  him  that  It  was  the 
IKirtion  of  the  fissure  vein  that  branched 
off  from  above  and  from  the  trend  of 
the  vein  he  believes  it  will  come  into  the 
main  .shaft,  if  extended,  less  than  100  feet 
further  down.  Mr.  Foley  says  that  no 
one  can  tell  how  thick  the  vein  is  above 
the  point  cros.**  cut  or  whether  it  will  widen 
out  further  down,  that  it  may  he  two  feet 
or  six  feet  or  more  in  some  places,  but  the 
fact  is  that  the  vein  is  there  and  the  show- 
ing is  goo<l  enough  to  encourage  further 
d-velopment.  He  estimates  the  amoimt  of 
gold-bearing  (luartz  from  the  point  ninety 
leet  to  the  cross  cut.  at  about  15,000  tons. 
Mr.  Foley  sajs  that  the  development  will 
be  continued  as  fast  as  possible.  They  will 
continue  the  cross-cutting  to  the  east  until 
the  two  other  veins  are  struck,  also  to  the 
west,  striking  the  two  veins  on  that  side. 
The  shaft  will  be  put  down  another  100  feet 
and  cros-s-cutting  made  to  the  veins  again. 
Mr.  Foley  says  that  the  company  will  then 
have  plenty  of  material  on  which  to  be- 
gin milling. 

The  Canadian  Mines  Development 
company,  says  Mr.  Foley,  has  a 
JT5.000  plant,  the  second  largest  in 
the  Rainv  River  country,  a  working 
capital  of  $12r.,000  and  a  bis:  bunch  of  re- 
serve stock.  He  says  this  is  always  what 
has  been  needed  in  the  district  to  prove  to 
the  public  there  Is  something  more  than 
wind  in  the  Seine  River  gold  fields.  He 
iK'lieves  that  the  development  that  will 
surely  be  made  at  the  Ff>ley  min '  will  en- 
courage the  other  companies  whose  only 
lack  thus  far  has  been  the  capital  to  carry 
them  to  a  point  that  they  would  pay  div- 
idends. Mr.  b'oley  drew  a  comparison  of 
the  hundreds  of  thousands  of  dollars  that 
are  put  into  copper  mines  in  Michigan  be- 
fore a  shaft  is  hardly  sunk,  with  the  J300O 
f»r  $4*XH)  put  into  a  s:old  mining  proposition 
in  the  Rainy  River  district,  from  which  the 
investors  think  they  ought  to  get  immedi- 
ate results. 

Although  Mr.  Fnle.v  went  uji  to  the  gold 
fields  to  look  aft  r  his  own  interests,  he 
made  a  call  fit  the  Golden  Star,  the  Olive 
and  the  Golden  Crescent  mines.  He  re- 
ports work  projrre.'islng  at  these  mines  al- 
though they,  like  other  propositions  up 
there,  need  more  money  put  into  them. 

One  thing  that  will  seriousl.v  handicap 
the  mining  interest.s  this  fall,  says  Mr. 
Folev,  is  the  stage  of  low  water  in  Rainy 
and  Shoal  lakes.  He  says  that  the  water  is 
about  7  feet  below  the  usual  level,  a  thing 
never  before  heard  of  since  he  has  been  in 
the  country.  When  the  Ontario  &  Rainy 
River  railroad  is  finished  next  summer,  as 
he  thinks  it  will  be,  Mr.  Foley  looks  for  a 
more  rapid  development  of  the  mininK 
properties,  becau.se  the  great  difflculty  now 
Is  the  getting  of  machinery  into  the  ilis- 
trict.  At  the  present  low  stage  of  water, 
Mr.  Foley  sajs  it  will  l>e  impossible  to  put 
in  machinery  this  fail. 


Reeipe  For  Ice  Maklni;. 

Any  housewife  by  following  the  new 
recipe  just  discovered  will  be  able  to 
make  ice  easily.  This  new  ice  is  cheap 
and  quickly  prepared,  IXMng  composed 
of  a  kind  of  ammonia  salt.  With  it  ice 
cream  may  Ik?  frozen  in  a  few  minutes. 
So  many  wonderful  improvements  are 
being  discovered  that  it  brings  into 
prominence  any  institution  that  remains 
unchanged.  Such  an  example  is  Hos- 
teller's Stomach  Bitters,  the  well-known 
remedy  for  weak  stomach.s.  Fift.v  years 
has  seen  no  change  in  it.  While  many 
imitations  have  risen  and  fallen,  this 
excellent  medicine  has  remained  un- 
changed— and  as  a  cure  for  indigestion, 
constipatiim,  dyspepsia  and  biliousness, 
it  is  unequalled.  See  that  our  Private

COMING  DOWN. 

Wages  of  Men  In  the  Mines 

Show  Ten  Per  Cent 

Decline. 

The  wages  of  men  on  the  iron  ranges 
in  this  county  have  fallen  about  10  per 
cent.  Several  of  the  mining  companies 
have  cut  the  price  from  $2  a  day  to  $1.80 
and  there  is  a  possibility  that  $1.75  will 
be  the  price  before  long.  There  is  no 
longer  a  scarcity  of  men  and  operations 
on  the  ranges  are  not  driven  to  their  ut- 
most as  they  were  some  time  ago. 
Several  of  the  mines  have  shut  down  or 
partially  so  and  this  ha.s  thrown  more 
labor  on  the  market. 

An  employer  of  labor  said  a  few  days 
ago  in  speaking  of  the  fact  that  the 
price  has  come  down:  "The  drop  in 
the  price  of  labor  means  that  we  will 
get  far  better  men  than  we  could  at  $2 
a  day.  When  the  rate  is  $2  we  get 
poorer  men  and  less  labor  from  the  good 
men.  A  good  laborer  working  along- 
side a  poor  one  soon  finds  himself 
shoveling  about  twice  as  much  as  the 
other  fellow.  He  knows  the  other  fellow 
is  getting  the  same  pay  and  the  re- 
sult is  that  he  l)egins  to  soiaier  like  the 
poorer  man.  We  only  need  to  pay  $2 
when  men  are  scarce  and  we  have  to 
take  every  man  we  can  get.  When  the 
price  drops  to  $1.75  a  day  it  means  that 
men  are  easier  to  get  and  then  we  can 
weed  out  those  fellows  who  try  to  do 
as  little  as  they  can  for  their  money. 
The  result  is  ihctt  we  keep  up  a  better 
standard  and  get  fully  50  per  cent  more 
work." 

The  demand  for  men  is  a  little  better 
than  it  was  a  few  wt  i^ks  ago,  however. 
Thf  impression  that  no  men  would  be 
needed  in  the  harvest  fields  of  North 
Dakota  is  found  to  \n-  wrong  and  from 
the  Red  River  valley  there  is  coming 
a  demand  for  men.  Harvesting  is  .gen- 
eral there  tmlay  and  there  are  few  farm 
hands  to  be  had.  The  railroads  J^ive 
thus  far  refused  to  put  into  effect  the 
usual  harvest  rate  but  there  is  a  pos- 
sibility that  they  may  soon  do  so  for 
a  limited  period  at  least.  The  object 
of  the  railroads  in  nnt  giving  the  rate 
was  not  to  force  the  payment  of  a  larger 
one  but  rather  as  a  prohibition  than 
anything  else.  They  know  that  the 
crops  were  verv  poor  in  North  Dakota 
and  the  rate  was  witheld  to  prevent 
the  state  from  being  overrun  with  men 
looking  for  jobs.  It  would  mean  a  state 
full  of  men  who  would  Ite  forced  to 
tramp  it  in  all  probability  and  would 
simply  have  to  beat  their  way  out  on 
the  railroads.  The  crop  is  turning  out  a 
little  better  than  expected  in  places 
however,  and  a  few  men  are  needed.

In  Tug  of  War— Results 

of  the  Dashes. 


From  early  yesterday  morning  till 
late  last  evening  lietween  2500  and  SOOO 
people  enjoyed  themselves  at  F(md  du 
Lac.  The  butchers'  picnic  was  an  im- 
mense success  in  every  way.  Th^- 
weather  was  clear,  cool  and  bracing.  In 
past  years  this  annual  jdcnic  has  been 
held  on  Sunday.  The  change  to  a  week 
day  was  attended  with  excellent  results, 
and  it  was  pronounced  the  greatest  suc- 
ce.ss  in  the  picnic  history  of  the  union. 

Northern  Pacific  specials  to  and  from 

the  grounds  were  crowded  all  day.  The 
City  baud  furnished  a  long  and  splen- 
didly arranged  program  of  popular 
music. 

The  athletic  events  were  unu.sually  in- 
teresting. A  baseball  game  between  re- 
tail and  wholesale  men  required  three 
hours  to  play  three  innings,  at  the  end 
.'f  that  time  some  person  wanted  to 
know  what  the  score  was,  and  it  was 
discovered  that  the  official  scorer  hart 
absconded  -with  all  the  statistics.  A 
special  auditing  committee  will  go  over 
the  accounts  of  the  game,  and  the  score 
will  probably  be  given  out  in  a  U  w 
weeks.  An  unconfirmed  rumor  gives 
the  retail  men  a  little  the  best  of  it. 

In  the  other  events.  John  Lawson  de- 
livered the  goods  in  the  100-yard  dash 
for  deliverymen,  with  L.  F.  Bernard  sec- 
ond. Frank  Pero  and  Ed  Wiles  won  out 
in  the  three-legged  race,  and  Wiles  cap- 
tured the  broad  jump.  In  the  100-yard 
event  for  packing  house  managers,  A. 
Johnson,  of  the  Booth  Packing  company, 
won  with  a  burst  of  speed  that  reminded 
the  spectators  of  a  "driving  finish.'" 

On  the  water  Pete  Linbeck  distanced 
all  competitors,  with  an  old-fashioned 
fiat  bottomed  boat,  in  the  canoe  events 
Alex  Stewart  was  proclaimed  cham-

In  the  tug-of-war  between  the  retail- 
ers and  the  wholesalers,  which  wn.s 
pulled  off  in  relays  during  the  intermis- 
sicm  between  trips  to  the  refreshment 
booth,  the  letailers  were  designated  as 
winners.  The  biscuit  eating  contest  was 
won  by  John  Cavanaugh.  Ed  Wiles  ad- 
ded new  fame  by  taking  the  high  jump

teresting beauty  event,  known  as  the 
.^0-yard  dash  for  pretty  girls  only.  Thr- 
"red  hot"  race  was  a  sultry,  sizzling 
little  event,  in  which  Miss  Lulu  Gras- 
lan  was  declared  the  winner,  and  Miss 
Briggs  was  second.  The  cake  walk  was 
one  of  the  features  of  the  day,  and  wa'' 
won  by  Miss  Margaret  Walsh  and  John 
Lawson.  They  introduce<3  some  clever 
rag-time  steps  that  caused  all  com- 
petitors pangs  of  jealousy.  Miss  Lena

The  picnic  ended  with  a  big  dance,

New  York,  Julj  26.— Di-scussing  the 
condition  of  the  iron  and  steel  industries 
and  the  meeting  in  Chicago  today,  Viw. 
Iron  Age,  in  its  regular  weekly  review, 
says  that  the  gravity  of  the  situation  is 
indicated  by  the  arrangements  which 
have  been  made  for  this  conference  of 
the  leading  steel  and  Bessemer  pig  iron 
interests,  which  is  to  be  held  in  the  office 
of  the  Federal  Steel  company,  Chicago, 
today.  The  call  is  signed  by  E.  H.  Gary, 
of  the  Federal  Steel  company;  C.  M. 
Schwab,  of  the  Cai-negie  Steel  company, 
and  Joseph  G.  Bu  ler.  Jr.,  representing 
the  Bessemer  Furnace  association,  and 
states  that  a  former  meeting  of  the 
presidents  of  the  leading  steel  com- 
panies it  was  thoigh  advisable  to  call 
this  meeting  to  go  over  the  situation 
and  see  what  coulj  be  done  to  improve 
it.    The  Iron  Age  says: 

"The  plan  proposed  is  ti  cut  down  pro- 
diiction  as  much  as  po.ssible.  Every 
blast  furnace  controlled  by  these  inter- 
ests is  to  be  closed  under  agreement  for 
one  month,  the  Federal  Steel  company. 
Carnegie  Steel  company  and  other  large 
companies  agreeing  to  do  this  if  the 
others  will.  The  success  of  such  a  nian 
v.i'l  depend  upon  the  unanimity  with 
which  it  is  accepted.  The  dissent  of  a 
single  important  interest  would  prob- 
ably  be   fatal." 

Of  the  general  situation  the  Iron  As' 
sav.s: 

"The  week  just  closing  has  developed 
considerably  more  business  than  its  pre- 
decessors, and  this  has  given  a  mild  sort 
of  encouragement  to  manufacturers. 
Nevertheless,  the  increase  in  the  volume 
of  business  is  not  great  enough,  by  any 
means,  to  satisfy  the  manufacturers, 
who  need  a  stead;/  stream  of  orders  L>» 
keep  their  mills  running  or  their  blast 
furnaces  free  from  accumulating  heavy 
stocks  of  pig  iron.  The  sales  made  have, 
in  nearly  every  i:istance,  been  accom- 
plished at  a  still  further  sacrifice  of 
prices.  A  lower  range  of  prices  than 
that  of  last  week  now  prevails  through 
almost  the  whole  line.  It  is  assumed  by 
some  that  the  bo:tom  is  now  in  sight 
because  present  prices,  in  many  cases, 
represent  actual  cost  of  production,  but 
this  has  often  proved  to  be  a  delusion. 
Prices  will  continue  t()  settle  until  the 
supply  falls  below  the  demand. 

"We  have  information  of  heavy  trans- 
actions in  pig  iron  for  export.  Our  Bir- 
mingham correspondent  reports  sales  in 
that  district  of  at  least  40,000  tons,  and 
outside  of  the  district  sales  of  7000  ton.s 
are  reported.  Much  more  export  trade 
could  be  done,  not  only  in  pig  iron,  but 
in  finished  products,  if  vessel  room  could 
be  secured,  but  it  is  diflficult  at  present 
to  arrange  for  ocean  carriage,  and 
freight  rates  are  also  nearly  prohibit- 
ory. 

"Kestricti  )n  of  i)roduction  is  proceed- 
ing quite  rapidly,  more  blast  furnaces 
having  recently  blown  out,  while  others 
are  fast  getting  ii  to  shape  for  suspend- 
ing operations.  It  is  now  likely  that 
Western  bar  mills  will  remain  closed  for 
consideiably  long'-r  than  has  been  ex- 
pected, in  view  jf  the  fact  that  the 
manufacturers  and  the  Amalgamated 
a.ssociation  have  ocked  horns  over  the 
wage  scale  for  the  coming  year.  The  as- 
sociation has  posit  vely  refused  to  accept 
it.  The  closing  of  so  many,  mills  should 
i-ave  an  effect  on  prices  of  bars.  l)Ut 
steel  bars  have  sold  within  the  week  at 
lower  rates  than  the  previous  week. 

"A  very  interestine  item  of  news  is 
the  announcement  that  the  Carnegie 
Sieel  company  is  f  bout  to  enter  into  the 
manufacture  of  rids  on  a  large  scale, 
and  t-at  it  may  also  decide  to  manu- 
facture hoops,  bands  and  cotton  ties. 

Some  failures  of  foundrymen  have  oc- 
curred in  New  York  and  New  England, 
but  they  are  not  regarded  as  indicating 
any  general  weakness  in  the  trade.

SOUTH  DAKOTA. 
Watertown— The  skeleton  of  an  unknown 
man  has  been  foutid  here  and  the  coronti 
is  making  an  investigation. 


Aberdeen- Repors  from  Verdon  indicate 
that  O.  E.  Seaton.  grain  buyer  there,  who 
has  been  missing  for  several  days,  victim- 
ized a  large  number  of  farmers,  and  that 
they  will  lose  mu(h  more  than  the  com- 
pany for  which  he  was  working.  It  is  al- 
leged that  he  encouraged  formers  to  store 
wheat  in  the  comi-any's  elevator,  and  in- 
stead of  giving  them  storage  ticket^  in 
the  name  of  the  company,  let  them  make 
a  memorandum  of  the  number  of  bushels, 
claiming  this  would  save  them  the  ex- 
pense of  paying  the  regular  storage  rates. 
One  farmer  Is  said  to  have  had  1700  bushels 
so  stored,  and  others  had  from  a  few 
hundred  to  several  hundred  bushels.  This 
wheat,  it  is  alleged,  Seaton  shipped  out 
and  pocketed  the  -eturns,  a  large  part  of 
which  it  is  thought  he  lost  in  getting  on 
the  wrong  side  of  the  wheat  market.  The 
total  amount  he  has  gotten  away  with, 
it  is  claimed,  will  aggregate  from  $7000 
to  $10,000.

was  troubled  with  my  kidneys  and  back, 
and  though  I  used  different  remedies, 
nothing  was  effectual  in  removing  the 
trouble  until  I  procured  Doan's  Kidney 
Pills  at  the  Duluth  Drug  company's 
store  and  used  them.  They  removed  the 
trouble  completely.  I  was  annoyed  by  a 
constant  dull  aching  pain  across  my 
loins  and  through  my  kidneys.  If  1 
stooped  unguardedly  or  attempted  to 
lift  anything  heavy,  ?harp  twinges  of 
pain  passed  through  me.  The  kidney 
secretions  were  highly  colored,  irregular 
and  unnatural,  and  deposited  a  dark 
sediment.  I  could  not  rest  well  nights, 
was  compelled  to  repeatedly  change 
position  and  consequently  rose  in  the 
morning  tired  and  worn  out.  LTnder  the 
treatment  of  Doan's  Kidney  Pills  I  Im- 
proved steadily  until  I  was  as  well  as  I 
ever  was."

Hard  to  Humbug 
Workmen 

When  They  Take  Time  te 
Ask  Questions. 


Few  people  realize  the  svim  spent 
monthly  by  working  men  for  tobacco, 
one  of  their  greatest  pleasures.  The 
sum  is  from  $6,000,000  to  $8,000,000.  Too 
large  a  proportion  of  this  sum  goes  to 
manufacturers  who  do  not  heslta*-*  to 
misrepresent  their  goods.  Some  of  it 
goes  to  trusts.  It  behooves  us  to  ask 
questions.  You  will  run  no  risk  of  buy- 
ing Inferior  or  trust  tobacco  when  buy- 
ing any  of  the  following  brands:  King- 
bolt, Gold  Rope,  Thrasher  or  Rise  and 
Shine,  made  by  the  Wilson-McCallav 
company,  of  Middletown,  Ohio.  This 
company  is  independent  of  any  trust. 
Buy  these  brands  from  your  dealers  and 
you  will  be  sure  of  a  pure,  wholesome 
plug  of  tobacco  and  honest  weight.  No 
workman  who  uses  tobacco  should  be 
without  it.  Remember  It  is  made  by 
union  labor.  Keep  the  list  of  brands  In 
your  pocket.

A  "PIG"  CAUGHT 

Robert   Gaynor  Fined  Stiff 

Sum  For  Selling  Liquor 

Without  a  License. 

Minnesota  Point  breathes  aRain.  An- 
other man  sellins  fascinating  eoncoctions 
«alciihited  to  make  life  b.v  the  sad  sea 
waves  endurable,  was  placed  under  ar- 
rest yesterday  afternoon.  This  morning 
he  was!  taken  to  police  court  and  found 
KTiilty  of  causing  bibulous  recollections 
to  somber  minded  campers,  contrary  to 
the  statutes  in  such  case  made  and  provid- 
ed. 

He   was   Robert   Gaynor,    proprietor   of 

the  Manhattan  Beach  restaurant.  It  was 
ilainied  that  he  sold  everything  from  beer 
to  Angustora  bitters.  Opinions  as  to  the 
ilamase  done  by  thi.s  surrei)tltious  ll(|Uor 
sellitij?  are  widely  divergent.  Some  sa.v 
thai  Mr.  Oaynor's" concoctions  were  harm- 
less, soft  :ind  langurous  and  made  the 
tampers  with  parched  throats  think  of 
the  purlins  of  coolins  streams  through 
liiiiiks  of  ferns  and  mosses,  and  led  to  a 
charitable  view  ot  life  and  the  Hual  devel- 
opment of  the  brotherhood  of  man. 

The  police  dep;jrtments  witnesses,  how- 
ever, said  that  they  had  absorbed  a  drink 
composed  of  rye  whisky,  lemon  juice  and 
susar,  whiih  caused  them  sundry  morbid 
thouKhts,  and  maile  them  lose  the  trail 
they  had  blazed  back  to  camp.  They  also 
cbiimed  that  when  a  camper  got  three  of 
Mr.  Gaynors  "hop  tea"  drinks  under  his 
belt  he'would  steer  away  from  the  Man- 
hattan by  devious  paths  and  enter  his 
home  from  strange  and  unseemly  direc- 
tions. 

When  the  fine  of  $75  and  costs  was  im- 
posed, the  proi>rietor  of  the  blind  pig 
opened  h's  eyes  and  saw  things.  Altogether 
his  bill  came  to  $f<2.24  exclusive  of  attor- 
ney's fees.  The  complaint  against  Mr. 
Gaynor  was  sworn  out  by  Detective 
Charles  Mork. 

\\  alter  Hayden  got  twenty  days  for  beg- 
ging on  the  street,  and  Ed  Hart,  Jacoo 
jacobson.  ojhn  Hansen  and  Frank  Lewis, 
each  got   ten  davs  for  dnmkenness. 

The  assault  case  in  which  Mary  Peliskl 
w.is  accused  of  abusing  little  Valentine 
Deleske.  was  dismissed  on  the  non-ap- 
pearance of  the  complaining  witnesses.

T'p  lo  today  about  three  miles  of  new

adding  man.v  feet  to  the  record.  Practical- 
ly all  of  the  walk  now  in  has  been  built

The  quality  of  the  lumber  being  put  in

little  lumber  tr;!-t  whieh  was  formed  by 
several  dealers  some  weeks  ago,  for  the 
jiurpose  of  giving  a  certain  grade  of  lum-

St.  Paul,  Ju4y  2t>.— The  most  Important 
traffic  alliance  In  Northwest  railroading 
for  some  years  has  been  arranged  between 
the  Northern  P;icific  and  Milwaukee 
road.s.  It  provides  for  the  closest  rela- 
tions between  the  Duluth  branch  of  the 
Northern  Pacific  and  the  big  Chicago 
system.  Officials  of  the  two  roads  wen 
in  conference  in  President  Mellen's  of- 
fice yesterday  reparding  the  understand- 
ing. The  former  acted  for  the  Northern 
Pacific.  The  Milwaukee  was  represented 
by  President  Earling  and  Vice  President 
Bird. 

Negotiation^  looking  to  the  end  agreed 
on  have  been  in  i)rogress  .some  weeks. 
They  followed  immediately  upon  the  sale 
of  the  St.  Paid  &  Duluth  to  the  Northern 
Pacific.  For  years  the  Milwaukee  has 
been  anxious  to  secure  an  outlet  from  the 
Twin  Cities  to  Duluth.  and  reports  have 
been  current   of  its  intentions  to  build. 

The  papers  bearing  on  the  understand- 
ing between  the  two  roads  are  drawn  u]>. 
It  is  understood  they  will  allow  the  Mil- 
waukee to  r'lin  Us  trains  direct  to  the 
head  of  the  1  ikes  from  Chicago  or  other 
points  '^n  the  system.  From  both  freight 
and  passenger  standpoints  the  alliance 
gives  the  Milwaukee  many  of  the  priv- 
ileges that  road  wnuld  t-njoy  were  It  the 
owner  of  the  l)ulut;i  short  line.  Arrange- 
ments are  bein<j  made  for  a  large  joint 
fr>  ight  house  in  the  Twin  Cities.  Every 
eftort  looks  to  the  in.;uring  of  a  service 
from  the  head  of  the  lakes  to  Chicago  and 
points  in  the  Dakotas  and  Iowa  surpas.^- 
ing  any  now  given  the  public. 

The  understanding  is  further  evidence 
of  the  keen  foresight  of  President  Melien 
of  the  Northern  Pacific.  In  securing  the 
i>uluth  line,  and  in  perfecting  an  allianc.

"There  is  a  disposition  on  the  part  of 
the  park  board  to  do  something  for  We.=?t 
Duluth  in  the  way  of  establishing  a 
park  out  here,"  said  Commissioner 
Hurnside  today,  "but  the  thing  cannot 
be  done  in  a  day,  and  if  the  people  will 
only  be  patient  they  will  undoubtedly  set 
what  they  want  in  the  proper  time. 
There  has  been  an  inclination  on  the 
Dart  of  some  to  crowd  the  board  and 
blame  Ifiem  for  not  taking  steps  in  the 
matter,  but  it  should  be  taken  into  con- 
sideration that  it  takes  four  out  of  the 
live  commissioners  to  act  favorably  in 
the  matter,  and  with  one  commissioner 
out  of  the  city  for  two  months  and  an- 
other away  for  a  few  weeks  past,  no  ac- 
•tion  could  be  taken.  The  board  meets 
but  Once  a  month,  anyway.  To  get  a 
park  will  take  some  time,  as  the  titles  of 
the  land  to  be  used  for  the  i>uriiose,wiil 
have  to  be  looked  into  and  the  transfer 
made.  It  takes  a  much  longer  time  I.) 
do  tiais  than  if  it  were  individuals  mak- 
ing the  transaction.  No  steps  toward  im- 
proving a  park  can  be  taken  until  liie 
board  gets  a  site,  and  there  is  of  course, 
a  limit  to  the  amount  of  money  that  can 
be  used  for  this  purpose. 

"Then,  too,  it  costs  a  good  deal  of 
money  to  keen  up  a  park  after  it  is  es- 
tablished. If  a  site  were  purchased  now, 
nothing  could  be  done  toward  improving 
it  that  could  not  be  done  just  as  well 
later  in  the  sea.son.  This  is  not  the 
nrorier  time  to  set  out  trees  and  flowers 
or  do  other  things  toward  beautifying  a 
park.  All  tCiat  could  be  done  would  be  to 
lay  out  the  site  and  make  the  olans  for 
beautifying  it  next  spring.  The  board 
desires  to  carry  out  the  wishes  of  the 
ncDpIe,  but  it  can  readily  be  seen  that 
it  is  unreasonable  t  )  blame  t-'-.e  com- 
missioners for  something  that  they  caii- 
not  do  now.  The  people  want  a  good 
park  when  they  do  get  one.  and  nothing 
should  be  dine  in  a  Ciurry,  fur  they 
might  get  something  that  would  not  be 
satisfactory.  The  commissioners,  I  am 
.-^ure,  are  willing  to  receive  suggestions 
from  citizens  as  to  the  best  sites  for  a 
park,  if  they  are  given  in  the  right 
spirit.  I  know  that  I  would  be  glad  tj 
receive  any  suggestions  either  persinally 
or  by  letter,  and  will  lay  the  matter  be- 
fore the  board  at  its  next  meeting.  I  feel 
ouite  assured  that  steps  v.ill  be  taken 
toward  getting  a  park  here  when  I  ae 
board  meets  again,  and  the  peoiile  that 
will  get  the  benefits  from  the  same  could 
help  us  a  great  deal  with  suggestions  it" 
they  would,  and  not  place  any  blame  on 
the  commissioners  for  something  that 
they  can  not  avoid."

The  b.,ard  of  county  eommissioners 
met  this  afternoon  pursuant  to  an  ad- 
journtnent  from  the  regular  meeting 
-arly  in  the  month.  The  principal  busi- 
ness to  come  up  this  afternoon  was  the 
consideration  of  applications  for  new 
eleetion  districts.  There  was  one  peti- 
tion for  a  new  district,  and  it  was  ex- 
pected that  Caiit.  Morcom  would  bring 
down  some  more.  The  petition  on  file 
thi.s  morning  was  from  a  number  of 
residents  of  township  :'«-!•>.  .i.i-20  and 
."6-20,  who  showed  that  they  have  no 
\oting  place  within  reasonalile  distance, 
though  there  are  more  than  twenty-five 
voters  in   the  territory. 

The  bank  of  Virginia  and  O.  D.  Kin- 
ney &  Co..  bankers,  have  made  appli- 
eation  to  the  county  board  to  be  ap- 
pointed county  depositories,  and  they

ThaIr  Friends  Turn  Up. 

Two  very  small  Polander  girls  were 
found  last  evening  wandering  about  in 
the  vicinity  •>f  Fourteenth  avenue  Bast 
and  First  street.  When  taken  to  police 
headfjuarers  they  didn't  seem  to  be 
very  well  acquainted  with  themselves 
and  could  not  even  pronoimce  their  own 
names.  The  kind  hearted  officers  mar- 
vebd  at  this,  as  they  made  the  children 
comfortable  for  the  night,  but  this  morn- 
ing they  understood  why  it  was.  A 
voman  that  knew  them  called  at  p(dice 
headcjuarters  and  tried  to  tell  the  of- 
ficers who  the  little  strangers  were. 
The  name  was  a  cross  between  a  ciplier 
message,  and  a  typographical  error  and 
after  filtering  it  through  his  brain  three 
of  four  times,  one  big  able  bodied  of- 
ficer, was  threatened  with  paresis.  The 
(  hildren  lived  on  Tenth  street  in  the 
Polish  neighborhood  and  were  taken 
home.  It  is  claimed  that  their  parents 
are  away  for  a  few  days  and  they  were

MELONS  RATHER  SCARCE. 

Supply  on  the  Market  Was  Lower 
Today  Than  For  Several  Days. 

Watermelons  were  ".Sva<  e"  on  ihc 
market,  the  Texas  melons  and  tho.-e 
from  other  far  S^'tilh  points  having 
about  had  their  day.  and  those  fro.n 
more  northern  sections  not  having  put  in 
an  appearance  in  any  (luantity,  1- 
though  small  local  lots  were  on  the  tnar- 
ket.  Missouri  melons  are  about  due.  and 
after  them  will  come  (hv  lowas. 

In  apples  there  have  been  only  small 
local  lots,  of  Kansas  and  Neiuaska 
fruit,  in  the  market  thus  far.  They 
were  quoted  at  $2.ri0(r«  $3..50  per  barrel. 
They  will  be  coming  in  carload  loc.^ 
shortly,  and  then  they  will  not  roost  as 
high. 

There  has  been  an  advance  of  from  10 
to  IT}  cents  in  California  pears,  the  quo- 
tations to  the  trade  beigji  now  $1.65;fi" 
$1.75.     Plum.'^  are  firm  at  $H/$1.10. 

Potatoes  continue  to  gr.>w  easier  in 
tone,  and  40  cents  was  struck,  with  4'> 
for  ^ilt  eded  lots.  The  first  of  the  Min- 
nesotas,  in  any  quantity,  are  now  ap- 
pearing in  the  market.  As  n^w  potatoes 
must  be  turned  over  quickly,  prices  will 
(I  ntinue  to  improve,  from  the  con- 
sumers' standpoint,  as  the  crop  comes  in 
in  larger  quintities. 

California  pears,  as  yet  the  only 
variety  in  tparket,  are  quoted  at  %l.'>0((i 
.?1.7r>.  It  will  be  thirty  days  before  the 
crop  of  the  Middle  West  is  on  the  mar- 
ket. 

Eggs  were  fir.uer  yesterday,  ll'^  beintv

the  top  notch. 

Texas  peaches  arc  coming  in  freeiy 
yet.  but  another  week  will  see  their

over  1200  people  arrived  in  the  city 
this  afternoon  on  the  excursion  over 
the  Duluth  Short  Line  of  the  Northern 
Pacific  road,  from  Taylors  Falls,  Minn., 
and  other  intermediate  points.  The  ex- 
cursion was  started  in  one  section,  but 
the  crowds  were  so  much  greater  than 
was  anticipated,  on  account  of  the  low 
rate  and  the  fine  weather,  that  the 
train  reaching  Hinckley  far  behind  time, 
was  split  up  into  two  sections,  and  two 
more  coacnes  added  to  accomodate  the 
excursionists  between  that  town  and 
Duluth. 

The  first  section,  of  seven  gaily  de- 
corated coaches  and  a  baggage  car  pull- 
ed into  the  Union  depot  at  2  o'clock, 
just  two  hours  late.  The  second  section 
of  eleven  coaches  was  about  twenty 
minutes  behind.  So  crowded  vvas  the 
eoinpany  for  coaches  from-  Hinckley 
into  this  city  that  a  freight  caboose  was 
pressed  into  service. 

On  the  first  section  were  several  cars 
of  Anoga,  M.  W.  A.,  the  cars  bearing 
big  banners  announcing  the  fact.  The 
Woodmen  got  up  an  excursion  from 
Anoga  in  order  to  take  advanta.ge  of 
the  rate  to  the  head  of  the  lakes  and 
for  the  purpose  (jf  meeting  brothers  of 
the  order  in  this  city.  There  was  a  ^ir 
sized  delegation  of  Woodmen  from  Du- 
luth camps  present  to  greet  the  visitor.s. 
The  Northern  Pacific  agent  at  Anoka, 
who  was  with  the  excursionists,  said 
that  he  sold  525  tickets  out  of  that 
place. 

Kxpecllng  to  get  to  Duluth  by  the 
n<  on  hovu-  a  greater  part  of  the  excur- 
su  nists  neglected  to  bring  a  lunch,  "and 
it  was  a  pretty  hungry  eiowd  that  ar- 
rived this  afternoon.  It  was  noticed 
that  the  "old  timers,"  those  that  have 
come  up  on  sim.ilar  occasions,  were  much 
wiser.  In  view  of  the  fact  that  the 
tiains  were  two  hours  late  into  Duluth. 
and  the  leaving  time  is  set  for  7  o'clock 
tonight,  the  excuisionists  are  making 
sttenuous  efforts  this  afternoon  to  have 
the  limit  extended  until  9  i,r  10  o'cfock 
this  evening.  They  argue  that  after  gt  f- 
ling  dinner  they  will  have  but  fn>ir 
hours  to  take  in  the  many  interesting 
siehts.  or  get  a  ride  on  the  harbor.  It  is 
lujderstood  that  they  are  urgin  the  rail- 
road companies  to  extend  .the  time  to  the 
limit  a-^ked.  Although  the  excursionists 
came  through  West  Superior  first,  it  is 
noticed  that  a  very  small  proportion  left 
the  cars,  as  they  might  have  djue  had 
they  had  more  time  to  visit  in  Duluth. 

Tomorrow  there  will  be  another  excur- 
sion frrim  Sioux  Falls  and  other  place.-', 
ari'vin::  here  in  the  afternoon  over  the 


arranirements  will  be  made  later.

FIro  at  Fay  MIno. 

A  fire  at  the  Fay  mine  near  Virginia 
on  Tuesday  destroyed  all  the  buildings 
except  the  shaft  house.  They  had  just 
been  erec-ted  and  while  the  loss  is  not 
large  the  delay  may  prevent  the  Fay 
from  bect)miiig  a  shii'per  this  season. 
The  property  was  sold  recently  to  the 
Minnesota  I'lm  company  and  a  spur  has 
just  been  built   into  it. 


Will  Not  Remove  It. 

Vice  President  Louis  W.  Hill  of  the 
Eastern  Minnesota  railway  says  that  the 
report  that  the  (;reat  Northern  Elevator 
eor>!{>any  is  to  tear  down  Elevator  A 
and  replace  it  with  a  steel  structure  Is 
not  true  for  the  present  at  least.  He 
says  that  there  is  a  long  period  of  good 
service  in  the  elevator  yet  and  until  it  is 
woin  out  it  is  to  be  allowed  to  :e- 
tnain.  When  the  day  comes  that  will 
find  it  beyond  advantageous  use  it  may 
be  removed   but  not   until   then.

West  Superior  street  wa;;  badly  burned 
Tuesday.  She  was  playing  witli

house  screaming  and  was  met  by  her 
father  and  sister,  attraeted  by  her  cries. 
They  pulled  the  burning  clothes  off  her 
body,  burning  their  hands  considerably 
and  a  doctor  was  immediately  sum- 
moned and  dressed  the  child's  burns. 
She  was  badly  burned  about  the  face

fatally.

Telephone  Across  the  Canal. 

The  Duluth  Teleihone  eoaipany  Ins 
establisiie<l  telephone  connections  with 
I 'ark  Point  and  <)-at-ka  beach  by  laying 
a  hydraidic  cable  in  the  bay.  It  wis 
found  impessible  to  lay  the  cable  di- 
rectly across  the  bottom  of  the  canal,  so 
it  luns  from  Lake  avenue  fai-  out  in  the 
bay  towards  Kite's  Point  and  turns  back 
at  an  angle  of  about  forty-five  degrees, 
thus  defying  currents,  dredges  and  other 
<ll8turbanees  which  keep  the  bottom  of 
the  harbor,  near  the  canal,  stirred  up.

that  was  just  as  he  was  going  out,  when

he  needed  rest  and  attention,  but  did  not 
think  he  should  be  confined  in  an  institu- 
ticm. 

Judge  Freeman,  at  the  conclusion  of 
the  hearing,  ordered  that  Mr.  Hort  be 
committed  until  he  recavers  from  his 
present  trouble.

that  his  head  niay  be  near  the  air.  for 
tlierc  i.-?  no  room  to  turn  around  with 
<  o:.;r"ort  in  Galvin's  honie.  To  sU  erect 
wiuld  be  an  impossibility.  F'oai  time 
I.'  lime  pharitably  incfined  pe  pb'  !;ave 
tried  to  befriend  old  John  with  .ffers  of 
fcrd  and  moi.ey.  but  ho  will  h  iv  "  none 
of  it.  He  long  ago  lost  faith  in  Vraman 
beings,  and  now  his  only  friehid.=  are  the 
river  rats  that  scamper  in  and  out 
among  the  stones  at  nicht.  He  feeds 
these  in  his  cave,  and  they  have  come  to 
know  him  so  that  they  run  about  him 
fearlessly  and  without  doing  him  harm. 
He  says  the  king  rat  and  the  que.^n  rat 
are  his  friends,  and  that  the  others 
would  not  dare  touch  him  against  their 
will.  Several  .vears  ago  some  did  rebel 
and  gave  him  trouble,  but  he  set  a  trap 
and  caught  the  offenders,  and  is  now 
on  .good  terms  with  the  whole  rat  king- 
dom. 

According  to  persons  in  the  neighbor- 
h<.rd  there  is  good  rca.son  for  Calvin's 
lack  of  faith  in  mankind.  Twenty  y.-ars 
ago  he  was  a  laborer  in  the  emidoy  of 
the  Manhattan  Gas  company,  at  Eight- 
eenth street  and  Tenth  avenue.  He  wa^ 
industrious,  and  lived  happily  with  his 
joung  wife.  His  brother,  whom  next  to 
his  wife  he  loved,  and  trusted  better 
than  any  one  else,  was  a  frequent  visitor 
at  theirlittle  home.  One  night  upon  i-e- 
turning  fnmi  work  he  found  his  wife 
and  all  rter  belongings  mi.ssing.  He 
went  to  his  brother's  to  seek  advice  in 
searching  for  her.  but  the  brother,  too. 
was  missing.  Galvin  never  recovered 
from  the  .shock.  The  next  morning  he 
went  to  the  gas  hi'use  and  asked  to  see 
the  superintendent. 

"I  ain't  goin'  to  work  any  more,"  he 
announced  quietly.  "If  you  can't  trust 
your  wife  and  you  can't  trust  your 
lirother.  you  can't  trust  no  one." 

Fr(.m  that  day  Galvin  has  been  a  her- 
mit, living  on  nothing  and  trusting  no 
one.  He  pays  no  taxes,  earns  no  money 
and  accepts  no  charity.  He  has  no  cares 
except  to  toss  aside  a  stray  cobblestone 
occasionally  that  some  thoughtless  city 
carter  has  let  roll  against  the  entrance 
of  his  hut.  The  police  say  that  on  ac- 
count of  the  man's  mode  of  living  he  is  a 
menace  to  public  health,  but  that  they 
are  powerless  to  take  any  action,  as 
tht-re  is  no  way  of  proving  It. 

An<dher  eccentrie  old  man  lives  in  a 
wi'oden  shanty  in  the  rear  of  the  "Liill.; 
Delmonico"  restaurant,  but  as  his  home 
is  a  wooden  "house,"  and  he  occasion- 
ally turns  an  odd  penny  at  snow  sho%-el- 
ling  or  chimnej-  sweeping,  h*-  h  1.5  little 
respect  for  Galvin.  Galvin  has  little  re-

NEW  YOHK  HEBMIT. 

Lives    In    a   Cave    In  a    Stone 
Yard. 

In  the  middle  of  all  the  rush  and 
bustle  of  the  waterfront  traffic  on  West 
street,  between  F'lfteenth  and  Sixteenth 
streets,  deep  down  in  the  city  stone 
yard,  is  situated  the  cave  of  one  John 
Galvin,  hermit,  cynic  and  friend  of  the 
river  rats.  The  average  wayfarer 
might  pass  by  the  big  pile  of  flagstone?:, 
ci  bbles  and  pavlag  blocks  fifty  times  a 
day  and  never  notice  any  signs  of  life  in 
it.  save  for  the  two  shanties  that  serve 
as  city  oflices  and  the  "Little  Delmonico" 
restaurant  at  the  lower  end,  says  ihe 
New  York  Sun.  At  7  o'clock  every 
morning,  however,  an  old  grizzly-beard- 
ed man  rises,  apparently  out  of  the  very 
stones  themselves,  and  scrambles  down 
on  to  the  street.  He  walks  slowly  up 
Ffiteenth  street,  poking  into  the  gar- 
bage cans  wit!  the  stick  he  always 
carries,  and  ran.=acking  every  odd  nook 
and  corner  of  the  block  in  search  of 
food.  After  this  trip  he  returns  to  his 
heme  in  the  stones,  where,  as  a  rule, 
he  remains  until  It  Is  time  for  the  next 
d.iy's  foraging  excursion.  This  has  been 
J  (din  Galvin's  life  for  over  fifteen 
year.s. 

Galvin's  home  is  a  cave-like  hollow  in 
the  cobblestones  kept  open  by  ingen*  - 
cu.sly  arranged  hning  cf  flag  stones.  A 
niece  of  rusty  tir,  about  five  feet  square, 
serves  as  a  rool.  The  entrance. of  the 
hole  is  about  two  feet  square,  and  the 
tenant  always  enters  feet  first  in  order 


CROQUET-eOLF. 


Interesting  Pastime  Invented  By  a 
Naval  Officer. 

A  new  outdo. ir  game  that  has  been  in- 
vented and  played  considerably  pn)m- 
Lscs  to  become  as  p(^pular  a  pastime  as 
golf.  II  is  called  croquet-golf.  and.  as 
its  name  implies,  is  based  on  a  combina- 
tifm  of  the  best  points  of  these  two  fav- 
orite sj.oi-ts.  The  game,  sa.vs  an  ex- 
change, was  originated  and  di-veloped 
by  a  naval  otlicer— Lieut.  Commander 
Henr.v  McCrea — at  present  »m  duty  at 
the  Washington  navy  yard  as  ordnance 
inspector,  says  the  Brooklyn  Eagle.  A 
.good  course  has  been  laid  out  on  the 
turf  at  the  navy  yard,  consisting  of 
seven  holes,  or  wiekets,  as  they  are 
called,  and  some  of  the  Washington 
golfers  have  held  spirited  matches  there. 
The  course  covers  between  800  and  lOuO 
yards  and  has  been  made  in  22  strokes. 

One  feature  of  this  new  game  that  will 
appeal  to  many  is  the  fact  that  it  ca.i 
be  played  on  a  smaller  field  than  vvoubl 
be  sultai)le  for  golf.  All  the  stroke:-, 
swings,  i»uts  and  drives  that  are  em- 
jiloyed  in  regulation  golf  can  be  us -d 
with  effect  in  this  game,  while  the  deli- 
cate and  accurate  shots  that  are  nece.-^- 
sary  ih  both  golf  and  croquet  are  devel- 
oped to  an  equally  fine  point  at  this 
style  of  play. 

The  outfit  is  simple,  consisting  of  a 
number  rf  bails  and  a  stick.  The  later 
Is  a  combination  of  a  golf  and  croquet 
mallet,  having  a  long  handle,  although 
shorter  than  a  polo  stick.  The  head  is 
equipped  with  a  driver  at  one  end.  and 
is  beveled  at  the  other,  so  that  a  good 
lofter  is  provided  for  lifting  the  ball 
clear  of  the  turn.  The  course  on  any 
lawn  or  field  depends  upon  the  .shape  of 
the  place,  and  is  marked  first  by  wick- 
ets or  arches  similar  to  those  used  in 
cicquet.  and  second  by  numbered  flags. 
No  account  need  be  taken  of  the  actual 
distances  between  the  wickets,  it  bein.i? 
better  to  have  them  vary  in  this  respect, 
so  as  to  afford  a  course  calling  for  long 
and  short  drives.  A  spot  or  tree  is  usu- 
ally selected  at  a  point  near  the  centtr 
of  the  grounds,  and  the  wickets  made  to 
iace  to  that  point,  so  that  all  shots  made 
through  the  arches  must  be  toward  the 
center.  The  balls  used  are  wood,  two 
and  three-quarter  Inches  in  diameter, 
light  and  tough,  the  object  being  to  get 
force  and  speed  without  momeatum. 
with  a  certainty  that  they  will  float. 

In  scoring  the  players  may  count 
either  strokes  or  wickets.  In  case  the 
former  method  is  followed  the  player 
completing  the  course  in  the  least  num- 
tx-r  of  strokes  wins.  Most  of  the  rules 
of  golf  have  been  adopted  for  this  game, 
with  a  few  additional  ones  made  neces- 
sary by  the  difference  in  play.  All  the 
preparation  that  is  necessary  in  croquet- 
golf  is  to  level  off  the  lawn  at  the  start- 
ing point  and  in  the  immediate  vicinity 
of  each  wicket.  The  more  natural  oi)- 
strujtions  there  are,  such  as  bu.=hes.  hills 
and  depressions,  the  better,  as  they  will 
call  into  jday  special  skill  in  lofting  and 
driving.  Onlj'  one  club  is  necessary,  anJ 
no  caddies  or  assistants. 


BRITAIN  AND  BOLIVIA. 
A  remarkable  instance  of  Internallonnl 
boycotting  is  brought  to  an  end  by  the 
settlement  in  the  capital  of  Bolivia  of  Sir 
W.  Beauczernet  as  British  minister  to 
the  republic.  Since  1S65  Great  Britain  has 
not  been  directly  represented  in  Bolivia 
and  the  reason  is  pecular.  says  the  Sussex 
Dally  News.  In  that  year  a  political  mob 
from  Sucre  seized  the  British  representa- 
tive and  compelled  him  to  take  an  unJlR- 
nified  ride  through  the  streets  mount<d 
upon  an  ass.  He  was  subjected,  also,  lo 
other  indignities.  As  a  consequence  ofli- 
cial  England  blotted  Bolivia  from  the  map 
and  it  remained  blotted  for  thirty-flve 
years.

TOWN  RAZED. 


British  Befeat  the  Ashantis 

at  Kokofu  and  Bestroy 

the  Town. 

Biflcwia.  Ashanti,  July  2tJ.  <•■.  .Moi- 
land,  under  instructions  from  Col.  Wil- 
cox, with  a  force  of  infantry  and  five 
Kun.~.  attacked  a  lar4.e  war  camp  at 
Kidiofu.  With  a  brilliant  charge,  th - 
stockades  were  rushed  before  thf 
file  my  had  time  to  iKcupy  them  and 
therefore  they  were  forced  to  evacuatt 
the  town.  A  large  amount  of  am- 
munition and  arms  was  captured.  Th*^^ 
town  was  then  razed,  thos  rf-moving  an 
important    obslaci-  Wilcox's 

flank. 


Washington,  July  26.— Now  that 
Fourth  Assistant  Postmaster  General 
Bristow's  report  has  l>een  made  public 
the*  arrest  of  ©x-Dlrector  General  of 
Posts  Rathbone,  at  Havana,  may  so<in 
follow.  It  is  intimated  at  the  postoffit-e 
department  that  the  delay  in  arresting 
Mr.  Rathbonf  has  been  due  to  a  desiio 
to  await  the  statement  of  the  result.s 
of  Mr.  Bristow's  investigation,  and  also 
a  wish  to  give  Mr.  Rathbone  every  op- 
portunity to  explain  it  which  the  repprt 
says  are  unaccounted  for.  Postmaster 
General  Smith  and  Fourth  Assistant 
Bristlow  decline  to  discuss  the  matter. 

The  postmaster  general's  letter  of 
transmittal  of  the  report  to  Secretary 
Root  calls  attention  to  two  important 
points  in  the  ca.se  against  Mr.  Rathbone. 
on  which  the  latter's  expected  arrest 
prol>ably  will  be  mainly  based.  In  this 
letter  Mr.  Smith  says: 

"It  further  shows  that  E.  G.  Rathbone. 
late  director  general  of  posts,  drew  two 
warrants  of  $500  eacli,  on  which  hi 
himself  obtained  the  money,  and  that  no 
account  or  explanation  has  been  render- 
ed; that  he  appropriated  a  per  diem  of 
$5  per  day  for  several  months  after  it 
had  been  evpressely  prohibited  liv  ih- 
Iiostmaster  general." 

Secretary  Root  spent  almost  the  entii? 
ini.iT.'n.F'  in  vv  isa'eru'ii.n  of  the  report 
of  Fouith  A'-.=i.=^Uint  Postma'^ter  Oenerai

It  Did  When  He  W£S 

Arrested. 

Georgetown,  Ky.,  July  .'6.— Walte: 
Bronston,  a  Lexington  attorney,  who 
assisted  in  the  arrest  of  Caleb  Powers 
and  Jc»hn  Davis  at  Lexington,  was  the 
first  witness  called  today  in  the  trial  of 
Calel>  Powers,  for  alleged  cMmplicity  in 
the  shooting  <>f  (;(<vernor  Goel»td. 

Powers  and  Davis  were  disguised  as 
soldiers  and  were  Ijoth  armed,  the 
witness  said.  He  identified  them  to  the 
police  officers.  After  a  forcible  arrest. 
Powers  was  taken  to  jail,  where  the 
pardon  granted  him  l)y  Governor  Taylor 
and  $1300  were  found  in  his  pockets. 
Di  puty  Sheriff  Rodgers.  of  Lexington, 
corioberated  this  testimony. 

The  pardon  granted  Powers  »»y 
C.overnur  Taylor  and  attested  l)y  the 
di  fendart  himself  wlis  then  exhibited 
to  the  jury. 

Wa'lei  Hronston.  recalled,  told  of  a 
i-onversaiioti  with  Powers  after  the  ar- 
rest, in  which  Powers,  referring  to  tht' 
pardon,  said: 

■*I  know  this  looks  a  little  bad,  liut  we 
were  making  our  way  to  a  place  where 
the  pardim  would  have  been  re- 
cognized." 

H.  Da\ij!  Harod,  ;i  constable  of  Frank- 
lort.  wa.s  called.  He  testified  that  vvhen 
the  shooting  oecurred  he  ran  'o  the 
executive  building  and  entered  ihc  we.-t 
iior.  The  dotir  of  the  ante-room  to  the 
executive  office  was  closed,  but  he 
rushed  it  open  with  difficulty,  when  he 
encountered  several  men.  who  thrust 
pistols  in  his  face  and  made  no  reply. 

Harod  said  that  just  as  he  entered  the 
main  door,  a  short,  stout  man  slammed 
the  door  of  the  secretary  of  stnte's  office, 
dtul  darted  down  the  sti-ps  to  the  base- 
ment. Witn«'S.s  did  not  know  ihe  secre- 
tarv  at  thit  time.

REGIS  CROWD  FREE. 

French  Anti-Semites*  Trial  Ends  In 
Their  Acquittal. 

Draguignan,  France.  July  26.— T.i' 
trial  of  Max  Regis  and  eleven  of  his 
friends  terminated  today  with  the  ac- 
riuittal  of  the  accused.  Max  Regis  is  the 
notori)U.s  Jew  baiter  and  ex-mayor  of 
.Algiers.  During  his  term  of  office  anti- 
Semitic  outbreaks  were  constantly  oc- 
curring in  Algiers.  ShorXly  after  the 
affair  in  the  Rue  Chabrot.  during  ili.> 
Dreyfus  trial,  when  the  anti-Semite  agi- 
tator, Guerin,  barricaded  his  house  and 
held  it  against  tCie  police  of  Paris  for 
several  weeks.  M.  Regis  was  threatened 
with  arrest.  He  fortified  himself  in  bi.~ 
house  In  a  suburi>  of  Algiers,  in  imila- 
ti<m  of  "Fort  Chabrot,"  and  defied  tho 
police.  The  garrison  fired  several  shots 
on  the  police  surrounding  the  house, 
which  he  'nad  named  "The  Anti-Jewi-'.i 
Villa,"  and  then  after  a  day's  siege,  he 
lied  during  the  night  to  Spain,  where  he 
remained  several  months,  but  on  slip- 
ping back  to  France  recently  he  was  ar- 
rested and  arrai.gned  on  a  charge  of 
taking  up  arms  against  the  government. 

He  dropped  his  heroic  character  in  t.ie 
dock  and  pleaded  that  his  case  had  been 
exaggerfited.  and  that  no  shots  had  beev. 
fired  at  the  iiollcc.  He  threw  the  whole 
blame  unon  the  Jews.  His  mother,  who 
was  present  in  court,  y'.iowed  much  dis- 
tress during  the  proceedings,  whicii. 
however,  ended  today  in  tre  acquittal  n' 
M.  Regl.s  and  his  companions. 

On  le.ivlng  the  court  M.  Regis  har- 
angued the  cpTwd  and  thanked  the  jury 
for  their  act  of  justice.

IN  MICHIGAN, 

Twelfth  District  Republican 

Congressional  Convention 

—Range  Notes. 

Houghton.  Mich..  July  jc.  (Sfetial  to 
The  Herald.)— The  Twelfth  di.-»triot  Re- 
publican convention  assembled  in  the 
Calumet  theater  this  afternoon.  The 
Sheldon  men  claim  thirty-fishl  votes,  or 
a  maj-rity  of  six  im  the  first  hallut,  but 
Smith.  >{  Marquette,  pnifesses  confi- 
dence he  will  win  out.  Mead,  of  E.scan- 
aba.  will  probably  turn  his  forces  over 
to  Smith. 

The  first  ballot  will  be  late  this  after- 
no"n  or  early  in  the  evening. 

It  is  rumored  that  the  Stanton  mines, 
including:  the  Atlaniir,  Baltic  and  other 
l<ropetl!es.  are  already  planning  to  fol- 
low up  the  1.  cation  of  the  (.'hamplon 
mill,  and  probably  the  Tri-mountain.  ai 
the  mouth  of  the  Salmon  Trout  river,  at 
Kedridge  with  the  Atlantic  and  Baltic 
mills  by  the  erection  im  the  Atlantic  site 
of  a  smelter  for  the  treatment  i>f  th" 
mineral  from  the  new  properties  as  well 
as  other  Stanton  mines,  including  Mich- 
igan, and  also  in  all  probability  the 
Mohawk  and  the  Wolverine.  The  Statj- 
ton  smelting  is  now  done  at  the  Laki- 
Superior  Smelting  works,  prim  ipally  it 
the   Dollar  Bay  plant. 

A  compressor  of  modern  design  re- 
ceived yesterday  for  the  Trimountain 
Mining  company.  It  comes  from  New- 
ark. N.  J.,  and  is  to  be  installed  at  the 
mine  immediately.  The  Trimountain 
.  ompany  recently  leta  contract  for  3.00«i.- 
tXK)  feet  of  hemlock  timber,  to  be  used  in 
timf>ering.  John  Phillips,  of  Allouez. 
captured  the  contract. 

Capt.  Thomas  Rawlins  of  the  Haiti- 
irine.  who  has  been  with  that  company 
ever  since  it  began  operatiim  and  has 
aided  very  materially  in  the  success  the 
property  has  scored,  has  lesiened  his 
position.  It  is  not  known  at  the  present 
time  what  Capt.  Kawlins'  plans  for  th" 
future  are,  or  who  will  be  chosen  as  his 
successor.

Marquette — F'xperiments  with  the  gas 
*ngine  lifeboat  were  completed  here 
yesterday.  These  experiments  follow 
those  which  were  made  a  year  ago.  but 
since  those  were  not  for  the  Kuroose  of 
testing  the  efficiency  of  the  engine,  which 
was  demonstrated  in  the  former  tests", 
the  present  experiments  were  to  deter- 
mine wrehein  the  model  of  the  boat  ought 
to  be  changed  to  better  adapt  it  for 
carrying  the  engine.  There  is  said  to 
be  no  Question  but  that  the  gas  engine 
lifeboats  will  shortly  be  adonted  in  ihi 
service.  Officers  regard  them  as  Ih^ 
most  valuable  improvements  whici) 
iaive  been  made  in  the  serviie  in  many 
years.

BOXERS  AFTER  BUCKMAIL 

Lettfr  Stnt  a    Boston  Importing 
Firm's  Canton  Agont. 

A  souvenir  of  the  Boxer  uprising  is  in 

the  possession  of  J.  S.  Newton  &  Co..  of 

:;0  Newton  street,  the  last  of  the  old  line 

of  lioston  houses  engaged  in  the  China 

trade,    says    a    Boston    special    to    thf 

Brooklyn  Eagle.    It  Is  a  letter  received 

by    their    Canton    correspondents     last 

January,  a  translated  copy  of  which  was 

sent  to  J.  S.  Newton  &  Co.    The  letter 
says: 

"Sirs? — We  respectfully  inform  you 
that  we  are  braves  of  both  the  Si-Kiang 
(West  river)  and  the  Pikland  (North 
riverj.  As  we  have  a  great  numtier  of 
brethren.  we  cannot  find  sufflciem 
means  to  meet  our  daily  expenses. 

■'Having  heard  that  your  resrectable 
firm  has  the  most  flourishing  business, 
we  request  that  you  will  help  us  with  an 
amount  of  $2000.  If  you  are  so  kind  as 
to  help  Us  we  will  not  bring  calamity 
upon  your  respectable  firm  on  the  day 
when  we  raise  a  rebellitm.  Please  send 
f>ne  man  only  with  the  bank  notes  to  the 
Yung  Fa  flower  br;at.  which  is  lying  ui 
the  Kuk-Fan.  in  the  Canton  river,  and 
deliver  them  to  the  brethren  of  Sam  Hop 
Tong  there,  as  we  are  assembling  in 
the  Yung  Fa  boat  just  now. 

"If  you  do  not  heb*  us.  i>r  if  you  re- 
quest the  authorities  to  come  and  arrest 
us.  we  must  t^ke  revenge  by  exploding 
your  firm  with  dynamite,  or  by  assassi- 
nating all  your  firm  people. 

"You  will  then  be  too  late  and  repent. 
If  you  send  us  a  number  of  men  we 
cant  see  them,  but  you  will  find  you 
make  a  mistake  yi>ur.self. 

"SAM  HOP  TONG." 

At  the  time  of  the  receipt  of  this  let- 
ter, last  January,  the  whole  thing  was 
laughed  at.  It  was  regarded  as  a  pretty 
good  joke,  and  one  which  the  various 
correspondents  ought  to  enjoy.  It  now 
transpires  that  the  Sam  Hop  Tong  is  the 
name  by  which  the  Boxers  are  known 
in  the  "province  of  Canton.  Thus  far 
there  h.'is  been  no  outbreak  there. 

The  Canton  correspondents  of  Newton 
&  Co.  did  not  contribute  the  $2000,  an  1 
thus  far  they  have  suff^^red  no  injury 
to  (lerson  or  property. 

The  letter  was  laid  before  the  English 
tonsul.  however,  and  partly  as  a  result 
of  it.  although  more  particularly  as  a 
icsult  of  the  depredations  of  some  of 
the  river  pirates,  an  English  gunboat 
was  sent  to  patrol  the  West  river.

A  thin-faeed.  dismal  looking  man 
drifted  into  the  Adams  street  court  this 
morning  l<ieking  for  a  permanent  home, 
says  the  Brooklyn  Eagle.  Since  1875. 
V  iien  he  came  frf>m  England  to  this 
<ountry.  he  claims  that  a  perpetual 
ho'Mloo  has  pursued  him.  not  entirely 
without  his  own  connivance,  for  he 
frankly  admits  that  he  has  been  devoted 
to  whisky  whenever  and  wherever  he 
•  •oidd  get  It.  He  is  now  about  47  year.- 
ojd.  and  has  a  doleful  imjiression  that 
he  has  not  much  more  of  life  left.  Th'- 
peculiar  feature  al)out  the  case  is  that 
he  wanted  Magistrate  Brenner  ti»  .so 
n;aneuver  things  that  he  would  be  able 
tc  go  to  the  penitentiary  for  the  remain- 
der of  his  life.  He  has  a  horror  of  alms- 
houses, and  thinks  that  as  they  make 
the  prisoners  work  in  the  penitentl.iry 
he  would  be,  in  a  measure,  self-support- 
ing there. 

"My  life  has  been  a  failure,  judge,"  he 
whined.  "It  was  not  always  so,  for  I 
had  a  good  father  and  a  Christian 
mi'ther  in  the  old  country.  She  often 
1  rayed  with  me  to  give  up  my  wander- 
ings and  to  leave  drink  alone;  but  I  was 
not  strong  enough  in  will  power  to  do 
what  she  asked,  and  the  prayers  of  that 
Tighteous  woman  did  not  seem  to  have 
much  avail.  Since  I  came  to  America  it 
Stems  that  everything  has  gone  wrong 
with  me.  I  have  l>een  unable  li»  worsv 
for  any  length  of  time,  and  nnw  I  find 
that  I  am  wholly  unable  to  do  anything 
outside  of  the  penitentiary.  I  just  jame 
fiom  the  penitentiary  two  weeks  ago. 
I  went  there  on  my  own  application,  for. 
thank  God.  I  never  stole  anythign  in  my 
life.  I  am  not  a  thief.  I  think  1  am  a 
lum." 

The  man  gave  his  name  as  Christopher 

Ttobley.  and  a  charge  of  vagrancy  whs 

[.referred    against    him    by    one    of    th? 

ourt  officers.     He    was    then    formally 

arraigned  before  the  magistrate. 

You  seem  to  be  strong  enough  to 
supp'>rt  yourself,"  commented  the  magis- 
trate. '"Have  you  not  tried  to  do  some- 
thing lately?" 

"Yes,"  was  the  reply.  "Afttr  I  left 
the  penitentiary  the  last  time  I  got  work 
t  •  do,  out  I  was  not  able  for  it.  It  aeen.« 
that  I  have  entirely  lost  control,  not  only 
of  my  mind,  but  of  my  body." 

"But  they'll  make  you  work  at  the 
penitentiary."  suggested  the  magistrate. 

"That's  it."  said  the  man.  "  'Make 
me.  It  is  compulsory  there  and  I'll  do 
ii.  But  outside  nothing  can  keep  me  up 
to  the  scratch." 

"I  do  not  see  how  I  can  send  you  ti 
the  penitentiary  for  more  than  six 
months.  "  said  the  magistrate,  who  was 
interested  in  the  man  l»ecause  he  was 
clean  and  used  fairly  good  English. 
'Id  like  to  go  away,  anyhow,  until  the 
1st  of  June  next,"  suggested  the  vclun- 
tary  prisoner. 

"Six  months  is  the  limit."  declared 
Judge  Brenner,  and  the  man  was  per- 
force contented  with  that.  He  will  go  to 
the  penitentiary  this  afternoon. 


Belle  Gates,  or  Star  Oliver,  as  she  has 
often  been  called,  who  a  few  days  ago  es- 
caped from  a  Posse  of  Texas  sheriffs  by 
boldly  plunging  her  horse  into  the  Rio 
Grande  and  guiding  him  through  a  Hood 
of  waters  to  the  opposite  shore,  is  one  of 
the  most  daring  and  successful  criminals 
that  ever  operated  on  the  southern  border. 
She  has  been  called  the  world's  worst 
woman  criminal. 

She  has  stolen  enough  cattle  in  Old 
Mexico  to  stock  the  biggest  ranch  in  Tex- 
as, and  It  is  pretty  well  known  that  she 
has  planned  and  succeeded  in  passing 
thousands  of  steers  across  the  Rio  Gran»le 
while  custom  house  oVscers  were  asleep. 
Beginning  her  remarkable  career  of 
crime  by  marrying  a  man  of  85  years  for 
his  money  when  she  was  barely  17.  she 
has  stolen  horses  and  cattle,  robbed  stores, 
held  up  travelers  on  the  road,  eloped  with 
cowboys,  married  rich  ranchers  and 
fought  battles,  shooting  to  kill. 

It  is  said  that  she  was  born  and  raised 
to  girlhood  at  Rio  Grande  City,  and  that 
her  mother  was  a  Mexican  woman  and  her 
father  a  noted  lawyer,  whose  fame  be- 
longs to  another  state,  says  the  Philadel- 
phia Press. 

Her  beauty  attracted  great  attention 
when  she  was  a  young  girl,  and  there  was 
bitter  rivalry  among  the  young  men  of  the 
border  for  her  .^miles.  which,  in  one  in- 
stance led  to  an  exciiange  of  shots  on  the 
deck  of  a  steamboat  between  a  ciwboy  and 
a  merchant  of  I'.rownville.  Texas. 

More  than  one  opportunity  presented  it- 
self for  her  to  have  married  well,  but  to 
the  surprise  of  her  friends  her  hand  was 
won  by  old  John  Mulllns.  a  wealthy  cattle 
man.  who  was  just  five  times  her  age.  She 
was  17.  or  nearly  so,  and  he  was  So.  They 
went  to  New  York  on  a  bridal  tour  and 
the  old  man  afterward  said  that  the  trip 
cost   him  $140,000. 

It  did  not  take  her  long  to  learn  how  to 
dress  In  the  loudest  and  gaudiest  style, 
and  she  cajoled  the  infatuated  old  Texan 
into  buying  the  costliest  of  <lresses.  hats, 
wraps  and  jewelr.v.  A  diamond  necklace, 
valued  at  $17,('(K)  and  a  rope  of  pearls,  as 
he  said,  "long  enough  to  make  a  lariat," 
which  cost  a  whole  train  load  of  beef 
steers  were  numbered  among  her  pur- 
chases while  she  had  the  rich  man  in  her 
power. 

She  got  tired  of  the  old  man  soon  after 
the.v  returned  tn  Texas  anil  plainly  told 
hirri  so.  He  was  so  desperately  infatuated 
with  her  that  he  offered  to  give  her  every- 
thing that  he  possessed  on  earth  if  she 
vvoidil  remain  under  his  roof. 

rngrateful.  and  altogether  bad.  .she  cool- 
ly Informed  her  husband  that  she  lovctl 
one  of  his  cowboys,  and  that,  since  she 
'ic  car»'  to  bother  with  the  formalities 
of  a  divorce  suit,  she  had  concluded  to 
cross  the  Rio  Grande  with  her  lover  and 
marry  him   in  Mexico. 

"Take  mo  with  you,"  howled  the  fo(d- 
ish  old  man.  falling  prostrate  at  her  feet. 
She  did  not  care  to  be  annoyed  with  the 
senile  Texan  an.v  longer,  though  she  took 
advantage  of  his  insane  affection  for  her 
to  rob  him  of  the  last  cent  of  ready  money 
that  he  nossessed— a  sum  amounting  to 
about  $'20,0()0. 

Her  wedding  tour  had  developed  a  taste 
for  such  luxuries,  extravagances  and  deli- 
cacies as  are  only  to  be  found  in  a  great 
city,  and  when  she  and  her  new  lover  were 
safe  beyond  the  reach  of  Texas  law  th€y 
steered  straight  toward  the  gay  capital  f  f 
the  Mexicans.  In  less  than  a  month  ahe 
was  in  the  mad  whirl  with  the  gayest  aft 
in  Mexico,  and  her  cowboy  lover  was  fair- 
ly  boiling   over   with  jealous   rage. 

One  fine  night,  after  she  returned  to 
the  Hotel  Inteibide.  escorted  by  a  gay 
voung  officer  of  the  army,  the  cowboy 
picked  her  up  in  his  arms  and  threw  her 
through  a  window.  The  next  morning 
the  Texas  cowbov  was  found  dead  in  his 
bed,  with  a  sharp  little  stiletto  sticking 
in  his  head.  It  is  believed  that  the  love- 
sick armv  officer  helped  the  munlress  out 
of  the  citv.  It  was  afterward  learned 
that  she  passed  through  the  gates  dis- 
gulsefl  as  a  rural  guard,  mounted  on  a 
tine  horse. 

Mexico  was  pretty  warm  for  her  just 
at  that  particular  time,  for  the  jtolice. 
stimulated  bv  the  large  reward  that  had 
been  offered  for  the  assassin  by  the  gov- 
ernment, were  looking  for  her  in  every 
direction.  .  . 

Belle  next  turned  up  in  jail  In  one  of 
the  border  counties  of  Texas,  charged  with 
highway  robbery.  She  was  captured  while 
asleep  in  a  hou.se  on  the  outskirts  of  Rio 
Grande  Citv.  through  the  treachery  of  a 
girl  who  ha"d  formerly  been  her  rival  In  a 
love  affair. 

Old  John  Midi  ins  no  sooner  heard  of  her 
troubles  than  he  came  to  her  assistanci'. 
and  cmploved  one  of  the  best  law.vers  in 
the  state  to  defend  her.  Rut  the  shrewd 
girl  soon  found  an  easier  way  to  beat  the 
case  against  h<  r.  She  invited  her  jaibr 
to  fall  in  love  with  her.  and  the  fo(d  in- 
stantly did  so  with  all  his  might.  He  had 
a  wife  and  five  chlldnn.  and  he  owned  a 
good  ranch  and  a  large  stock  of  cattle. 
Belle  (Jates  easily  induee.l  ihe  infuriatcil 
man  to  convert  all  of  his  possessions  into 
cash,  ami  one  •pdet  night  tlie  jadcr  and 
his  fair  prisoner  cro.s.«ed  i>ver  into  Mexico 
and  fled  to  California.  They  were  easily 
trucked,  and  soon  after  their  flight  llicy 
were  arrested  while  occupying  a  box  m  a 
theater  In  I.,os  Angeles,  Cal. 

There  was  some  error  in  the  first  appli- 
cation for  a  reiuisiiion  ami  considerable 
delav  occurred.  In  the  meantime  the  rest- 
less Belle  and  her  sorrowing  lover  occu- 
pied «-ell8  in  th"  county  jail.  After  leav- 
ing instructions  for  all  his  m<iney  to  be 
given  to  the  woman  who  had  ruined  him. 
the  repentant  Texan  ctmimittod  suicide. 
The  ever  resourceful  siren  easily  succeed- 
ed, bv  making  an  application  to  the  court 
in  person,  in  geiiing  the  money  into  itie 
po.ssession  of  a  lawver  she  had  employed, 
and  a  few  davs  afterward  she  walked  out 
of  jail  in  broa<i  daylight,  dressed  as  a  boy 
She  says  that  >^he  stayed  in  Los  AngcivS 
for  several  weeks,  often  passing  the  police  i 
while  the  officers  were  looking  for  her.       J 

From  the  clt^  of  the  Angeles  she  went 
to  Chihuahua,  where  she  affected  to  repent 
of  her  crimes  and  follies.  For  the  space 
of  five  months  she  actually  led  a  quiet  and 
apparentlv  innocent  life,  acting  as  inter- 
preter and  private  secretary  for  Father 
Sebastian,  a  noted  Cathcdic  dignitary. 

It  has  since  been  learned  that  there  was 
a  cause  for  this  sudden  change  of  conduct. 
The  storv  of  the  strange  affair  which 
caused  Belle  Oates  to  repent  and  abandon 
a  career  of  crime  for  a  short  time,  at 
least,  was  found  in  a  bunch  of  papers 
which  she  left  at  the  house  of  one  who 
had  gained  her  confidence  while  she  was 
(rving  to  lead  a  better  life.  It  was  written 
in"  Spanish,  and  is  evidently  the  girl's  own 
work,  done  when  remorse  ]»ossessed  ner 
to   the  exclusion  of  all  other  emotions. 

"I  had  just  stepped  out  into  the  road, 
she  had  written,  "when  I  saw  a  man 
mounted  upon  a  splendid  black  horse,  com- 
ing toward  me.  He  was  evidently  in  a 
very  happv  frame  of  mind,  for  he  was 
whistling  a  livelv  ajr  and  his  face  wore  a 
look  of  careless  serenity  that  1  can  never 
forget.  With  a  slight  inclination  of  his 
head  and  a  good-humored  'How  do  you  do 
sir  ■  he  was  about  to  pass  on  when  1 
caught  his  horse  by  the  bridle  and  thrust 
my  revolver  In  his  face. 

"Without  uttering  a  word  of  protest  he 
di.smounted  In  obedience  to  my  request 
but  when  T  pointed  toward  the  brush  and 
told  him  to  go  forward,  his  face  turned 
deadly  pale  and  such  an  appeal  of  hope- 
less ttrror  was  d^  icted  or  his  feati.  ■^"=- 
that  I  wonder  how  any  fiend  could  have 
been  so  hardened  to  all  human  Impulses 
as  to  have  resisted  it. 

"  'Go  on,'  I  said,  taking  a  step  toward 
the  poor,  trembling  creature  and  threaten- 
ingly displaving  my  pistol.  He  walked 
slowly  forward,  never  once  turning  his 
head  or  speaking  a  word  until  he  came  to 
the  bank  of  a  stream  of  water. 

"We  were  now  about  :!'I0  yards  from  the 
road  and  the  Intervening  space  was  cov- 
ered with  cactus  and  chaparral.  The 
banks  of  the  creek  were  some  ei^ht  or  ten 
feet  high  and  p  glance  convinced  me  that 
the  water  was  very  deep. 

"  'That  will  do,'  I  said,  'fake  off  your 
clothes  and  be  In  a  hurrv."  Then,  for  the 
first  time,  he  turned  his  colorless  face  and 
despairing  eves  toward  me  and  asked  if  I 
were  going  to  kill  him. 

"When  I  think  of  my  conduct  T  am  sure 
that  the  devil  himself  possessed  me.  More 


brutal  than  any  pirate  that  ever  sailed  tne 
seas.  I  answered  in  an  indifferent  man- 
ner, as  if  the  affair  was  of  little  miport- 
ance  to  me.  'Certainly,  I  am  going  lo  do 
you  that  little  service.  Be  in  a  nurry  with 
your  rags,  and  let  us  have  the  affair  over, 
i  have  a  long  ride  ahead  of  me.' 

"  'Sir,  he  said,  'won't  you  kindly  grant 
me  a  few  moments  to  pray  tor  my  wile 
and  little  children'/  They  will  soon  be 
fatherless."  He  stripped  the  last  garment 
from  his  body  and  was  stand'iig  before  me 
perfectly  nude. 

"I  thought  I  had  never  seen  a.  nobler 
specimen  of  physical  manhood.  He  looked 
to  be  about  25  years  of  age  and  he  stood 
full  six  feet  In  height.  His  body  was  splen- 
(lidlv  proportioned  and  his  limbs  were 
mus'cled  like  a  trained  athlete.  His  hair 
was  dark,  but  he  had  tender  blue  eye.s  and 
features  that  would  have  pleased  almost 
any  woman.  I  was  tempted  to  spare  his 
life  and  fall  in  love  with  him.  but  the  old 
feeling  of  devlltrv  possessed  me,  and  1 
said:  'Oh.  go  ahead  and  pray  as  much  as 
vou  like  while  1  smoke  a  cigarette.' 

"He  Instantiv  fell  upon  his  knees,  with 
his  face  turned  from  me,  and  began  to 
prav.  I  felt  my  better  nature  asserting 
itself,  and  to  still  it  touched  the  trigger. 
The  ufortunate  man  fell  forward  at  the 
crack  of  the  pistol,  a  stream  of  blood 
spouting  over  the  back  of  his  neck.  1 
quickly  examined  his  pockets,  finding  only 
a  small  purse  containing  only  a  few  silver 
coins.  In  his  agony  the  dying  man  had 
struggled  nearly  over  the  bank  of  the 
stream. 

"After  throwing  his  clothes  into  the  wa- 
ter I  mounted  his  horse  and  galloped 
away.  In  the  course  of  an  hour  or  more 
night  came  on  and  it  soon  became  evident 
that  I  had  lost  my  course. 

"After  riding  a  short  distance  I  came  to 
a  cabin,  and  being  desirous  of  making 
.some  inquiries,  1  shouted  halloo.  A  wom- 
an appeared  at  the  door  and  invited  me  to 
dismount.  The  odor  of  cooking  reached 
mv  nostrils,  and,  after  learning  that  I  was 
traveling  in  the  wrong  direction,  1  con- 
cluded to  enter  the  house  and  appease  my 
thirst  and  hunger. 

"The  ladv  informed  me  that  her  husband 
was  away"  from  home— 'he  had  gone  to 
Presidio."  she  said. 

"  'Papa  has  gone  to  the  store  to  buy  me 
and  brother  some  candy  and  tell  old  Santa 
Claus  not  to  forget  us,'  said  a  little  girl.  5 
or  6  years  of  age. 

"By  this  time  a  beautiful  curly-haired 
little  boy,  younger  than  the  girl.  hart 
crawled  up  In  my  lap.  The  woman  smiled 
and  said:  'The  children  arc  not  afraid  of 
strangers.  Mv  husband  went  to  town  to 
get  some  Christmas  toys  for  them  and 
thev  are  impatient  for  him  to  return. 

'"The  little  girl  had  scrambled  up  on  my 
knees  and  I  was  admiring  their  beauty 
and  innocence  when  the  door  was  pushed 
open  and  I  heard  the  woman  scream. 
I'pon  turning  my  head  it  seemed  as  if  the 
horrors  of  hell  rushed  upon  my  brain.  A 
naked  man  covered  with  blood,  stood  in 
the  door.  The  woman  and  children  fiew  to 
him  crying,  'Oh,  papa,  what  is  the  mat- 
ter"'' 

"'Do  not  be  alarmed,"  he  said,  'a  bad 
boy  shot  me  and  T  fell  In  the  river,  but  1 
am  not  badly  hurt."  ,        ^.        »  , 

"While  thev  were  helping  him  toward 
a  bed  I  made"  an  effort  to  reach  the  uour.

IN  THE  CLOAK  ROOM  irruLr 


Great  (^lean-up  Sale  of- 


possessed  me  and  I  fell  headlong  on  the 
floor  moaning  in  agony.  1  crawled  into 
the  vard  and,  regaining  my  feet,  1  stag- 
gered to  the  gate.  Here  I  happened  to 
feel  the  little  jiocketbook  and  I  dropped 
it  in  the  path.  Then  1  ran  away  and  never 
slopped  until  I  fell  on  the  earth  exhaust- 
ed 

'"'For  three  davs  and  nights  I  rolled  in 
the  dust  in  agony,  praying  for  forgiveness 
for  mv  crimes.  After  many  days  of  sor- 
row I  "sought  Father  Sebastian,  and  since 
I  have  met  him  I  have  lived  in  peace.  ' 

One  would  have  supposed  that  this  ex- 
perience would  have  been  suflficient  to 
cause  the  girl  to  reform,  but  after  leading 
a  quiet  life  for  five  months  she  grew  rest- 
less and  began  to  long  for  excitement 
again.  .       ,      ,  v. 

In  support  of  tiie  theory  maintained  by 
tho.se  who  believe  that  the  girl  possesses 
some  h%n)notic  power  which  enables  her  to 
swav  the  minds  of  others  it  has  been 
orr-ved  oeyo-id  ..'jest-vi  iV.at  ;-ho  seJuoea 
an  aged  priest  to  forget  his  sacred  callln- 
and  implore  her  upon  his  knees  to  allow 
him  to  be  her  slave.  He  gave  her  the 
kevs  to  the  vaults  that  contained  tne 
treasures  of  his  brotherhood,  helped  lur 
to  rob  his  brother  priests  and  aided  her 
to  loot  the  home  of  a  band  of  sisters  of 
charity.  He  assit^ted  her  to  carry  off  the 
ornaments  that  decorated  the  interior  of 
an  art  gallerv  and  he  stood  by  her  in  a 
cathedral  while  she  plundered  the  altars 
of  costly  golden  vessels,  and  ,then  he 
dragged  his  decrepit  body,  enfeebled  b> 
age  after  her  into  the  mountains.  He 
was  admitted  to  a  camp  of  a  band  of  rob- 
l>er«  where  he  found  that  Belle  Oates 
was  "worshipped  as  a  queen. 

The  strange  girl  savs  that  she  spent  I  he 
happiest  davs  of  her  life  while  hving 
with  these  brigands.  It  was  among  tliese 
wild,  desperate  men  that  she  met  her  fate- 
in  the  person  of  a  picturesque  brigaiid 
chief,  and  she  says  that  he  is  the  on.y 
man  she  ever  loved. 

He  is  an  educated  American.  At  one 
time  he  was  a  lawyer,  and  at  another  lie 
was  a  member  of  the  Kansas  legislature. 
Just  at  that  particular  period  of^his  career 
Belle  Oates  fell  into  his  arms,  he  was  en- 
gaged in  making  an  in.lustrious  effort  lo 
better  his  fortunes  by  robbing  travelers, 
stages,  ranches  and  country  villages  He 
is  well  known  in  Chihuahua,  where  at  one 
time,  he  ran  a  famous  gambling  establish- 

'"His'name  is  John  Oliver,  but  phenomen- 
al success  on  the  right  side  the  green  cloth 
at  one  period  of  his  meteoric  career  made 
him  a  star,  and  his  admirers  flattered  hini 


bring  a  force  of  comrad«s  to  his  rescue 
the  Texas  Rangers  landed  the  picturesque 
bandit  of  the  Free  /one  behind  the  strong 
bars  of  a  Texas  jail. 

Belle.  Oates.  under  the  name  of  Stai 
Oliver,  immediately  visited  the  prisoner 
and  cmploved  a  firm  of  the  best  lawyers 
in  the  state  to  dcfeixl  him.  A  woman  ol 
impulse,  she  could  not  content  hersell  to 
abide  the  slow  delay  of  the  law.  She  hrst 
tried  to  captivate  th(  sheriff,  appearing  :it 
his  house  glittering  in  gold  and  diamonds 
and  affecting  the  gicate.-^t  distress  lie 
shrewd  officer  recognized  her.  and  for  th^ 
first    time  in  her  life  she  was  foiled 

Driven  to  madness  by  the  failure  of  hei 
plot,  she  summoned  a  half  a  dozen  bandits 
from  the  mountains  of  Mexico.  an<l  on  a 
dark  night  she  led  them  in  an  assault 
..gainst  the  jail.  But  some  one  betraye.l 
her  and  when  her  c.miradcs  hurled  a 
heavv  piece  of  timl"^r  against  the  lail 
door."  the  noise  was  answered  by  a  f iisi- 
lade  from  the  wind<«ws.  and  four  of  hei 
.Mexicans  fell  dead  or  seriously  woumiod 
in  their  tracks.  Tho  fearless  woman 
emptied  her  revolver  in  the  faces  of  the 
deputy    sheriffs    as   she    retreated    to    hei 

'^C^n'the  next  morning  four  of  the  depu- 
ties discovered  the  girl,  dressed  a.s  a  co\\- 
bov,    riding  along   tho  shores  of  the     Rio 


water  and  ".safely  guided  her  horse  in  tri- 
umph to  the  Mexican  shore.

Luxury  in  railroad  travel  has  reached 
its  highest  point  in  the  United  States  in 
the  form  of  the  private  car.  The  idea  of 
a  habitation  on  wheels  every  whit  as  com- 
fortable, convenient  and  luxurious  as  the 
finest  private  residence,  the  most  perfect 
club  or  the  most  magnificent  hotel,  in 
which  the  traveler  could  be  whirled  over 
the  country  with  the  speed  of  the  wind, 
would  have  been  scouted  by  the  fathers, 

but  the  private  car  fills  this  description 
with  exactness.  It  had  its  inception  in 
this  country,  and  here  it  has  been  brought 
to  the  greatest  perfection. 

It  is  true  that  Queen  Victoria,  the  czar 
of  Russia,  Emperor  William  of  Germany 
and  a  few  other  crowned  heads  have  spe- 
cial trains  so  brilliantly  painted  and  em- 
blazoned with  the  royal  arms  and  carry- 
ing such  an  abundance  of  gilding  as  to 
bring  to  mind  Milton's  phrase,  "barbaric 
pomp  and  gold,"  yet  it  is  a  fact  that  there 
are  more  than  a  hundred  private  cars  in 
the  I'nited  States,  which  far  surpass  any 
cars  in  Europe,  says  the  Kansas  City 
Star.  Nearly  all  the  great  railway  piesi- 
dents  and  a  few  score  miilionaries  with- 
out railroad  interests  in  this  country  ha've 
better  cars  than  the  best  ones  in  which 
any  king,  queen  or  emperor  ever  traveled. 
There  is  not  a  transportation  line  of 
any  importance  in  the  country  which  iias 
not  cars  set  aside  for  the  exclusive  use  of 
its  president.  Us  vice  presidents  and  seve- 
ral others  of  its  leading  officials.  The  <:■ 
roiling  palaces  cost  from  $15,000  to  $&>,OijO 
each. 

Dr.  W.  Seward  Webb,  for  many  years 
president  of  the  Wagner  Palace  Car  com- 
I)any.  and  an  official  of  sovrru  raitn  a.ls, 
hashad  four  inivate  cars  built  for  him  in 
the  past  dozen  years,  probably  the  most 
luxurious  and  expensive  in  the  world, 
their  aggregate  cost,  with  furntshings, 
being  in  the  neighborhood  of  $2OtJ.0yO. 

Dr.  Webb  spends  more  time  in  his  pri- 
vate car  than  any  other  man  in  the  coun- 
trv,  a  great  many  of  his  trips  being  made 
for  the  mere  pleasure  of  traveling  in  a 
whizzing  palace,  surrounded  by  his  famiiy 
and  guests. 

Dr.  Webb's  private  car  Ellsmere  is  con- 
sidered the  finest  specimen  of  rolling  stock 
architecture  that  money  and  genius  can 
j)roduee.  It  lacks  only  a  half  inch  of  be- 
ing seventy-nine  feet  long,  is  ten  feet  wide 
and  fourteen  feet  three  inches  high,  it  is 
built  to  accommodate  ten  people,  but  has 
been  comfortably   used  by  fifteen. 

The  car.  with  its  library,  paintings,  tap- 
estries, etc..  probably  represents  an  in- 
vesctment  of  $S0.000.  Ail  the  rugs  aad 
carpeting,  as  well  as  all  the  linen,  china, 
tableware  and  much  of  the  furniture,  were 
imported  for  it.  The  car  is  entered 
through  a  deep  vestibule,  opening  into  the 
observation  room.  The  walls  of  this  room 
are  almost  all  glass,  so  numerous  and 
wide  are  the  windows.  All  the  chairs  ari^ 
movable  and  the  general  furnishings  of 
the  room  have  been  arranged  to  fit  it  for 
a  smoking  and  lounging  apartment  as  well 
as  for  observation  purposes.  From  this 
you  pass  into  a  handsome  hail,  into  which 
"the  guests'  staterooms  open.  There  are 
two  of  these,  superbly  furnished  and  fin- 
ished in  mahogany.  Each  is  a  little  over 
nine  feet  long  by  seven  wide,  and  in  them 
are  stationarv  beds,  dressers,  wardroljes. 
etc..  and  connecting  with  each  is  a  toilet 
room  with  hot  and  cold  water. 

Passing  these  you  step  into  Dr.  Webb  s 
own  bedroom.  Be'side  a  ma.ssive  open  bed 
five  feet  wide,  there  is  a  dresser,  station- 
ary berths  for  the  children  and  an  abuii- 
da"nce  of  clothes  press  room,  closets  for 
hats  and  shoes.  All  the  woodwork  is  ma- 
hogany. ,  ,    ,,   . 

The  next  room  is  the  parlor  and  dining 
room.  It  has  in  it  a  massive  carved  tabic, 
at  which  twelve  people  can  be  seated.  In 
one  corner  there  is  a  large  mahogany 
writing  dask  with  a  bookcase  over  it, 
whil(>  in  the  opposite  end  is  a  Turkish 
divan.  There  are  invisible  berths  on  the 
sides,  which  when  occupied,  have  all  the 
privacv  of  state  rooms  open.  There  are 
two  of"  these.  In  the  .saloon  by  an  ingenious 
arrangement    of   curtains. 

Adjoining  this  saloon  is  another  toilet 
room  and  a  large  bath  room.  Next  come 
the  china  closet,  pantry,  and,  in  the  ex- 
treme front,  the  kitchen.  All  of  these  are 
finished  in  black  walnut,  even  to  the 
kitchen.  The  berths  for  the  servants  ad- 
join the  kitchen  and  are  models  in  their 
way. 

In  addition  to  this  magnificent  car.  the 
Oneonta,  Collis  P.  Huntington  has  had  a 
car  built  for  a  kitchen  and  for  the  travel- 
ing home  of  his  servants. 

An  interesting  addition  to  this  class  of 
rolling  stock  is  a  private  car  built  for 
Henry  M.  Flagler,  the  Florida  million  aire 
hotel"  and  railroad  man.  It  is  78  feet  8 
inches  long.  At  the  entrance  is  a  large 
observation  room  titted  with  reed  furni- 
ture and  with  a  writing  desk  ami  book- 
ca.se.  The  interior  finish  is  of  white  ma- 
hoganv.  The  car  is  lighted  by  gas  and 
the  (liandiliers  are  fitted  with  cut  glass 
globes.  There  are  state  rooms  accessible 
from  the  corridor,  finished  with  while 
.satin  wood.  The  larger  is  Mr.  FiagUr's 
room.  It  has  a  double  open  bed.  richly 
carved,  ami  a  wardrobe  with  convenient 
toilet  room  adjoining,  fitted  with  onyx 
washstands.  There  is  also  a  bureau  with 
an  oval  beveled  mirror  and  a  case  of 
drawers  with  candelabra  on  each  side. 

The  dining  room  is  furnished  in  white 
mahogany,  and  the  upholsterings  are  of 
green  leather  with  rich  embossings.  The 
iipholstor.v  throughout  is  in  var>iiiR  sii.ides

D.  H.  DAY,  Dentist. 


London.  July  27.  11:30  a.  m.— This 
morning's  reports  from  Shanghai  reiter- 
ate the  allegation  that  the  surviving 
members  of  the  diplomatic  corps  have 
already  left  Pekin  on  their  way  to  Tien 
Tsin.  and  add  that  the  foreigners  are 
being  escorted  by  troops  of  Jung  Lu, 
cx3mmander-in-chief  of  the  Chinese 
forces.  This  statement  is  said  to  be  the 
outcome  of  very  stormy  interviews  be- 
tween Li  Hung  Chang  and  the  foreisn 
consuls,  and  to  have  been  taken  in  the 
hope  of  abating  the  wrath  of  the  powers 
and  delaying  the  advance  of  the  allies 
toward  Pekin. 

Advices  received  from  the  same  sources 
state  that  half  the  foreigners  in  Pekin 
have  been  killed  or  wounded  or  iiave 
died  as  the  result  of  the  privations  they 
have  undergone. 

Simultaneously  comes  a  cable  dispatch 
to  the  Daily  Mail  from  Shanghai,  an- 
nouncing that  a  letter  has  been  received 
from  Sir  Claude  MacDonald,  the  British 
minister  to  China,  under  date  of  Pekin. 
July  6.  saying  the  legations  were  under 
constant  fire  and  that  three  were  still 
standing,  but  that  the  foreigners  were 
receiving  no  assistance  from  the  author- 
ities. Owing  to  the  cowardice  of  the 
Chinese,  Sir  Claude  wrote,  it  was  hape-l 
the  legationers  would  be  able  to  hold 
out  for  a  fortnight,  but  if  they  were 
pressed  their  resistance  could  not  last 
more  than  four  days  at  the  utmost 
text  of  the  Shanghai  dispatch 
Daily  Mail  foll3ws: 

Shanghai,  July  2').— A  letter  just  re- 
ceived here  from  Sir  Claude  MacDonald. 
dated  Pekin,  July  6,  follows: 

"We  are  receiving  no  assistance  from 
the  authorities.  Three  legations  are  still 
standing,  including  the  British.  Wean- 
holding  part  of  the  city  walls.  The  Ctii- 
nese  are  shelling  us  from  the  city  witr. 
a  :5-inch  gun  and  some  smaller  ones,  and 
are  snitiiug  us.  We  may  be  annihilated 
any  day.  Our  ammunition  and  f03d  are 
short. 

"We  wnurd  have  perished  by  this  tune 
i;iily  the  Chinese  are  cowards  and  have 
no  organized  plan  of  attack.  If  we  are 
not  pressed  we  .nay  hold  out  a  fortnigh: 
longer,  otherwise  four  days  at  the  ut- 
most. I  anticipate  only  slight  resist- 
ance to  the  relief  force." 

Sir  Claude  concludes  by  advising  the 
relief  force  to  approach  by  thn  eastern 
gate    or  by  way  of  the  rivt-r. 

The  losses  of  the  fmflgiiers  in  Pekin 
up  to  July  6  were  forty  kille<l  and  eighty 
Wounded. 

Some  of  the  statements  above  are 
.strikingly  similar  to  the  published  ver- 
sion of  Sir  Claude  McDonald's  letter  of 
July  4.  If  not  the  same  letters,  the 
Chinese  artillery  would  appear  to  be 
strangely  ineffective,  as  the  casualties 
were  the  .same  according  to  the  letters 
of  both  dates.  As  lending  colot  to  the 
suggestion  that  the  communications  are 
identical,  it  may  be  stated  that  the  Bel- 
gian officers  this  morning  received  a 
dispatch  from  Shanghai,  under  today's 
date,  mentioning  the  receipt  of  a  letter 
from  Sir  Claude  McDonald,  dated  July  4. 
in  which  it  was  stated  that  l)esic-ged  for- 
eigners in  Pekin  were  reduced  to  horse 
tlesh.  The  Belgian  consul  at  Shanghai 
also  reports  that  a  servant  of  the  Ger- 
man mini.«ter,  ^■.  ho  left  Pekin  July  n. 
states  that  the  British  legation  was  only 
attacked  at  night,  and  if  resupplied  he 
believed  could  hold  out. 

The  alleged  departure  of  the  ministers 
from  Pekin  ha>-  led  to  a  reassertion  of 
the  l>elief  that  vhe  story  is  part  of  a  deep 
laid  plan  of  Cliina  to  conceal  the  dale 
of  the  massacre  at  Pekin,  the  suggestion 
being  that  Chinese  nflicials  will  claim 
that^  the  mlni-'ters  left  Pekin  under  a 
strong  escort  and  massacred  en  route. 
However,  although  it  is  still  believed  a 
massacre  has  ticurred  of  th^  foreign 
colonies  at  Pekin.  the  disposition  now  is 
to  think  the  ministers  were 
rescued  from  a  tragic  fate. 


Berlin,  July  27. — A  dispatch  received 
here  today,  dated  Tien  Tsin,  Tuesday, 
July  24,  says: 

"A  messenger  who  left  Pekin  Sunday, 
July  15,  brought  today  to  the  customs 
office  here  news  that  Prince  Ching's 
s-ildiers  had  been  fighting  Prince  Tung's 
troops  and  had  been  defeated.  Tfte  for- 
eigners were  defending  themselves  in 
the  Northern  cathedral,  near  the  for- 
bidden city."  _ 

CONSULS  GIVEN  POWER. 

Frtneh  Consuls  Empowsred  to  Pro- 
ttot  French  Subjeots. 

Paris,  July  27.— At  the  cabinot  council 
today  the  minister  of  foreign  affairs,  M. 
Delcasse,  stated  that  full  powers  had 
been  given  the  P'rench  cohkuIs  In  Chini 
to  take  such  measures  as  should  be  ne- 
cf.ssitated  by  the  situation  to  ensure  the 
protection  of  French  subjects  and  accord- 
ing as  naval  reinforcements  arrive  at  Taku 
vessels  will  be  dispatched  to  various  ports 
where  their  presence  may  be  deemed,  ad- 
visable. 

The  consul  at  Hankow  telegraphs  to  the 
forign  office  that  two  military  stations  at 
Sze-Chuen  have  been  pillaged  and  the 
Lazarist  establishments  burned.  The  dis- 
patch adds  that  the  viceroys  spontaneously 
took  measures  to  restore  order.

PEKIN  ALIVE." 


Cablo  Sont   By  a  Missionary   at 
Cha  Foo. 

Boston,  July  27.— The  American  board  of 
commissioners  for  foreign  missions  today 
received  a  cablegram  from  Rev.  Henry 
B.  Porter,  a  missionary  of  the  board,  dat- 
ed Che  Foo,  July  23,  containing  the  words; 
"Pekin  alive." 

Rev.  Mr.  Porter,  who  was  stationed 
at  Panp  Chuang,  province  of  Shan  Tung, 
North  China,  escaped  to  Che  Poo  after 
the  Boxer  uprising.  The  cablegram  con 
talneil  only  the  two  words  "Pekin  alive." 
No  Intimation  being  given  as  to  the  evi- 
dence on  which  the  conviction  which  ap- 
parently prevails  at  Che  Foo  was  based.

regariling  China  that  the  parliamentary 
secretary  of  the  foreign  office,  William  St. 
.Inhn  Broderick,  was  able  to  impart  to 
the  house  of  commons  today  was  that 
jireparations  for  the  advance  of  Pekin 
seemed  to  be  approaching  completion.

CHINESE  LEAVE  SHANGHAI. 

Coing  at  the  Rate  of  Two  Thousand 
Dally. 

Minneapolis,  July  27.— Charle?  Oood- 
now  has  just  leceived  a  letter  from  his 
brother.  Consul  General  John  Gor»dnovv 
at  Shanghai,  in  which  the  latter  inti- 
mates that  the  conditions  are  even  wors" 
than  has  been  indicated  in  his  official 
cablegrams.     He  writes: 

"Chinese  are  leaving  this  city  at  the 
rate  of  2000  or  HOOO  a  day.  The  purpose 
of  their  going,  or  their  destination  is 
not  known." 

While  he  docs  not  say  so.  Mr.  Coodnow 
evidently  believes  that  they  are  being

leaving,  he  says,  have  had  close  relatlons 
uith  the  Europeans,  and  if  their  depart- 
ure had  been  on  account  of  fear  of  war 
by  the  allies,  some  of  them,  he  thinks, 
would  certainly  have  made  their  fears 
known  to  their  white  friends.  Th>^ 
Europeans,  th-^'refore,  have  organized  a 
lK)dy  of  volunteers,  and  have  refused  to 
admit  any  natives  to  it.  although  sev- 
eral offered  their  services.  This  illus- 
trates the  suspicion  with  which  all  na- 
tives are  regarded.  -\  numljer  of  Sikh

60ES  TO  THE  JURY. 

Evidencs   In   Jester  Case  In  and 
Arguments  Made. 

New  London,  Mo.,  July  27.— The  tak- 
ing of  evidence  having  been  completed 
in  the  trial  of  Alexander  Jester,  charged 
with  the  murder  of  Gilbert  W.  Gates  in 
1S91.  Judge  Eby  today  delivered  his 
instructions  to  the  jury.  His  words 
were  followed  with  much  interest.  He 
told  the  jury  of  the  evidence  and  the 
tredibi'iity  of  the  witnesses;  and  that 
where  a  person  charged  with  crime 
breaks  jail  and  intentionally  escapes 
*rom  the  officers  to  avoid  trial,  the 
escape  in  the  absence  of  qualifying  cir- 
cumstances, raises  a  presumption  of 
guilt.  It  will  be  remembered  that  the 
defense  admitted  that  Jester  broke  out 
of  the  Mexico,  Mo.,  jail. 

The  court  further  instructed  the  jury 
that  unless  they  believe  and  find  from 
the  evidence  in  the  case  that  Gilbert 
W.  Gates  is  dead  and  that  he  came  to 
his  death  through  the  criminal  action  of 
some  person,  and  that  person  the  de- 
fendant and  the  defendant  murdered 
Gilbert  W.  Gates  in  the  manner  and  by 
the  means  charged  in  some  count  of 
the  indictment,  the  jury  should  acquit 
the  defendant. 

J.  H.  Rhodes,  of  Sedalia,  Mo.,  opened 
the  argument  in  the  case  for  the  state. 
He  was  followed  by  Jos.  S.  Mclntyre. 
The  next  speaker  for  the  state  will  be 
-\ttorney  J.  W.  Hayes,  of  New  London. 
He  is  to  be  followed  by  ex-Governor 
Charles  P.  Johnson,  of  St.  Louis,  for 
the  state  and  J.  O.  Allison,  of  New  Lon- 
don, for  the  defense.

Wilde  Reports  Its  Structural  Strenght 
Intact. 

Washington.  July  27.— The  navy  de- 
partment this  morning  received  the  fol- 
lowing cablegram  from  Capt.  Wilde, 
commander  of  the  Oregon:

"W'lLDE." 


Washington,  July  27.— Secretary  Hay 
signalized  his  return  to  Washington 
from  Canton  this  morning  by  the  an- 
nouncement that  under  no  circumstan- 
ces will  the  United  States  government 
accept  the  offer  to  turn  over  the  foreign 
ministers  to  the  internationals  at  Tien 
Tsin  in  consideration  of  not  attacking 
Pekin.  A  long  cablegram  was  dis- 
patched today  to  Rear  Admiral  Remey, 
at  Taku,  and  it  is  believed  that  this  in- 
struction was  laid  upon  him. 

The  state     department    claims     to  be 

pursuing  an  entirely  consistent  course  in 

this  direction.     The  officials  point  out  all 

of  the  bitter  criticism  in  the  European 

papers  directed      against      the      United 

States'  policy  is  based  upon  a  total  mis- 
understanding of  the  fundamental  prin- 
ciples which  govern  the  actions  of  tlK? 
government. 


Secretary  Hay's  decision  to 
decline  the  last  European  prop- 
osition was  based  upon  his  de- 
termination to  adhere  strictly 
to  the  conditions  laid  down  in 
the  reply  to  the  Chinese  em- 
peror's appeal. 


The  state  department  requir^'d  that 
the  ministers  at  Pekin  be  put  in  com- 
munication with  their  governments  and,, 
the  most  significant  condition  of  all,  that 
the  Chinese  authorities  co-operate  with 
the  relief  expedition  for  the  liberaticm 
of  the  legations.  Until  these  two  things 
are  done  the  state  department  abso- 
lutely refuses  to  be  led  into  any  ar- 
rangement looking  to  the  mitigation  of 
the  punishment  of  the  Chinese  govern- 
ineni,  such  as  the  abandonment  of  the 
expedition  to  Pekin. 


It  is  not  known  at  present 
just  how  this  last  proposition 
reached  tho  state  department. 
It  is  inferred  that  it  came  from 
several  sources,  but  all  are  be- 
lieved to  be  traceable  to  Li 
Hung  Chang. 


Mr.  Goodnow,  our  consul  general  at 
Shanghai,  is  the  nearest  United  States 
official  to  Li,  and  has  acquitted  him.«elf 
so  well  up  to  this  point  that  the  state 
department  does  not  hesitate  to  make 
free  u.«e  of  him  as  a  diplomatic  agent. 
Therefore,  it  may  be  interesting  lor 
the  foreign  contingent  at  Shanghai,  who 
have  complained  against  Mr.  Goodnow's 
intercourse  with  Li  Hung  Chang,  to 
know  that  the  consul  is  acting  in  strict 
accordance  with  the  instructions  of  the 
state  department.  Mr.  Goodnow  is  a 
shrewd  man,  and  the  department  of 
state  feels  itself  able,  using  him  as  an 
intermediary,  to  give  proper  weight  to 
anything  coming  from  the  great  vice- 
roy. 

A  special  cabinet  meeting  was  held  i:i 
Secretary  Hay's  office  at  11  o'clock  this 
m.orning,  the  usual  hour.  The  .-secretary 
of  state,  fresh  from  his  personal  inter- 
course with  the  president,  was  in  oosi- 
tion  to  advise  his  colleasues  of  the  ad- 
ministration's purpose,  and  the  whole 
Chinese  situation  was  discussed.  Decide 
Secretary  Hay,  there  were  present: 
Secretary  Gage.  Postmaster  General 
Smith  and  Secretary  Root. 

When  the  cabinet  conference  ad- 
journed, it  was  stated  that  no  further 
definite  plans  concerning  the  action  of 
this  government  had  been  proposed.  The 
meeting  was  a  general  interchange  of 
opinions  and  views.  Secretary  Hay  laid 
l)efore  the  members  the  latest  informa- 
tion he  has  received,  including  a  dis- 
patch from  Consul  General  Goodnow,  at 
Snanghai. 

The  government  has  received  informa- 
tion, presumably  from  Admiral  R«-niey, 
that  the  number  of  allied  troops  in  Tien 
Tsin  is  28.000.  The  movement  of  the 
troops  from  Tien  Tsin  to  Pekin,  Secre- 
tary Root  said,  would  depend  upon  the 
arrival  and  mobilization  of  tro.)ps  cf 
other  nations  now  on  the  way  to  Take 
He  said  it  would  be  impossible  for  the 
United  States  force,  as  small  as  it  is,  to 
go  along.  It  is  further  stated  that  all 
the  United  States  troops  that  could  po.- 
sibly  be  spared  had  been  ordered  to 
China. 

Our  ofllcials  figure  that  two  days  must 
yet  elapse  before  an  answer  can  be  'e- 
(•eived  from  Minister  Conger  (presum- 
ing he  is  still  alive)  to  the  last  code 
message  sent  him.  In  the  mt^antime 
they  are  directing  every  energy  to  get- 
ting all  the  men  they  can  into  China 
and  to  co-operate  with  the  allied  forces 
in  the  forward  movement. 

Consul  General  Goodnow's  dispatch 
was  not  made  public.  It  was  said  that 
that  the  consul  submitted  some  matters 
for  the  information  of  the  department, 
as  he  has  been  in  the  habit  of  doing  al- 
most daily  since  the  Chinese  trouble 
arose,  but  that  this  had  no  direct  bear- 
ing on  any  of  the  vital  points  of  the  situ- 
ation now-  under  consideration. 

This  government  has  not  been  notified 
of  a  selection  of  a  ommander  of  the 
allied  forces  in  China,  and  it  is  thoug.-: 
the  selection  has  not  yet  been  mad?. 
Gen.  Chaffee  has  orders  to  do  everything 
in  his  power  to  facilitate  selecting  a 
head  to  the  expedition.  The  chief 
anxiety  of  this  country  is  to  have  a 
start  made  for  Pekin  as  soon  as  prac- 
ticable. 

In  case  the  commanders  on  the  ground 
cannot  agree  among  themselves,  the 
question  will  have  to  be  referred  back  to 
their,  respective  governments.  This 
would  be  regarded  here  as  a  deplorable 
delay.  If  the  question  is  thrown  back 
on  the  various  governments,  the  United 
stales  is  in  the  frame  of  mind  to  inter 
ject  some  very  plain  and  forceful  lan- 
guage into  the  controversy,  which  prob- 
ably would  more  than  ever  convince  the 
foreign  chancellories  of  the  business-like 
and  unconventional  brand  of  American 
diplomacy. 

Admiral  Remey's  information  as  to  the 
strength  of  the  allied  forces  between 
Taku  and  Tien  Tsin.  namely  28,000  men, 
made  it  plainer  than  ever  to  the  cabinet

advance  by  July  30. 


Washington,  July  27.— Arrangements 
have  practically  been  completed  for  the 
purchase  from  Spain  by  the  United 
States  of  the  islands  of  Cibitu  and  Caga- 
yen,  which  were  left  in  Spanish  posses- 
sion by  the  treaty  of  I'arls,  although  part 
of  the  Philippine  arcidpelago.  The  pur- 
chase price  was  not  made  public. 

Had  the  peace  commissioners  at  Paris, 
in  arranging  for  the  relinquishment  to 
the  United  States  cf  the  Philippines, 
contented  themselves  with  the  nhrase- 
ology  "the  Philippine  archipelago,"  us 
descriptive  of  the  territory  to  be  ceded 
to  the  United  States  by  Spain,  no  ques- 
tion, perhaps,  would  have  arisen  over 
the  possession  of  Cibitu  and  Cagayen  is- 
lands. But  to  avoid  the  least  chance  of 
loose  definition,  the  paace  commissioner.' 
drew  a  geographical  boundary  line 
around  the  islands  to  be  transferred. 
The  boundaries  were  fixed  by  meridians 
of  longitude  and  parallels  of  latitude. 
The  lines  generally  described  a  parallelo- 
gram, but  at  the  southwestern  corner, 
for  some  reason,  there  was  an  inset,  ex- 
cluding some  of  the  islands  off  the  coast 
of  Borneo.  By  the  terms  of  the  treaty 
the  southern  boundary  line  of  the  archi- 
pelago started  at  the  eastern  end,  at  tho 
127th  meridian,  and  rin  along  the  paral- 
lel of  4  degrees  45  minutes  westward  to 
the  meridian  of  119  degrees  25  minutet:. 
At  that  point  *ie  line  ran  directly  north- 
ward to  latitude  7  degrees  40  minutes, 
and  thence  was  deflected  westward  10 
the  116th  meridian,  forming  the  small 
Inset  above  referred  to. 

It  was  a  year  aft«r  the  signature  of 
the  treaty  of  Paris  before  the  fact  was 
discovered  that  in  ay  ing  down  these 
boundaries  the  commissioners  had  ex- 
cluded the  islands  of  (Mbitu  and  Cagayen. 
It  was  discovered  by  the  visit  to  that 
part  of  the  archipelago  of  the  U.  S.  S. 
Concord.  The  commander  of  the  vessel 
landed  on  Cibitu  and  was  cordially  re- 
ceived by  the  reigninic  dato,  who  prompt- 
ly hoisted  the  stars  and  stripes  and  an- 
nounced himself  undar  the  protection  of 
the  United  States.  Attention  being  at- 
tracted to  that  quarter,  the  Spanish 
government  .soon  di.scovered  the  defect 
in  the  boundary  line  and,  through  liie 
Duke  D'Arcos,  set  ur>  a  claim  to  the 
state  dcoartment  for  the  possession  of 
the  Islands.  The  department  tocrtc  the 
ground  that  the  purpose  of  the  treaty  of 
Paris  in  that  section  was  to  convey  the 
entire  Philippine  archipelago  to  the 
United  States,  and  the  general  language 
of  the  act  of  cessioi  was  suflficlent  to 
effect   that   object. 

Finally,  it  appeals  that  an  exact 
boundary  would  have  to  be  accepted, 
instead  of  one  laid  down  in  general 
terminology,  accord  ng  to  the  funda  • 
mental  principles  of  common  law.  That 
being  the  case,  it  became  necessary  in 
the  interest  of  sound  policy  and  to  ore- 
vent  the  existence  of  a  probable  cause  of 
irritation  in  the  future,  to  buy  out 
Sixain's  rights  and  cDntinue  the  two  is- 
lands as  part  of  the  Philippine  archi- 
pelago. 

As  announced  from  Madrid,  the  cab- 
inet (by  which  is  meant  the  ,Spani?h 
cabinet)  is  favorably  considering  the 
pronosed  transfer,  and  the  negotiations 
practically  may  be  regarded  as  closed, 
on  the  basis  of  a  cash  payment  to  Spain 
by  the  United  States  of  $100,000  for  the 
two  islands. 

The  two  islands  are  insignificant  in 
area  and  thinly  ])Opulated.  probably 
containing  from  6000  to  8000  people  in  all. 
Cibitu  is  a  long.  nar:-ow  island,  fourteen 
miles  in  length  by  tn'o  across.  It  is  flai: 
and  uninteresting,  save  for  one  smail 
conical  mountain  in  :he  center,  about  aOO 
feet  in  height.  It  is  surrounded  with 
coral  reefs,  with  no  anchorage  t?  speak 
of.  Cibitu  lies  only  lour  miles  outside  of 
the  southern  boundary  fixed  by  tht 
treaty  of  Paris. 

Cagayen  is  about  the  same  area,  five 
miles  by  eight,  with  mountains  reaching 
a  height  of  1100  feet.  It  is  the  largest  of 
half  a  dozen  tiny  islets  known  as  tli^ 
Cagayen-Sulu  group  and  owning  alleg- 
iance to  the  sultan  of  Sulu.  Its  chief 
products  are  tobacco,  sugar  and  similar 
tropical  products.  Both  the  islands  are 
said  to  be  mainly  valuable  for  their 
pearl  and  shell  fisheries,  which.  It  is 
possible,  may  develcp  some  CDmmerciaJ 
imi>ortance.  .,    ^  v. 

One  imoortant  consideration  that  has 
interested  the  United  States  government 
in  these  negotiations  is  the  desirability 
of  excluding  any  European  power  from 
the  possession  of  the  islands  for  use  as 
a  naval  station,  which  would  constitute 
a  constant  menace  10  the  United  states 
sovereignty.  There  is  reason  to  believe 
that  arrangements  of  that  kind  have 
been  already  put  afloat,  which  are  now 
to  be  thwarted.  

MOB  VICTIM  DIES. 

New  Orlean*s  Do»th  List  Crows- 
City  quiet. 

New  Orleans.  July  27.— Lewis  Taylor, 
one  of  the  negroes  shot  in  Wednesday 
night's  rioting,  died  today.  A  negro 
killed  by  the  mob  Wednesday  night  on 
ViUerle  street  was  identified  today  as  Au- 
gust Thomas,  a  laborer.  An  investigation 
of  the  disorders  was  begun  today  by  the 
grand  pury.  This  afternoon,  the  city  was 
peaceable. 

RECRUITS  I'XDR  CHINA. 
St.  Louis,  July  27.— Capt.  Davis,  re- 
cruiting oflBcer,  today  sent  twenty-five 
recruits  to  Fort  Smiling,  Minn.  Before 
leaving  here  the  recruits  were  tho- 
roughley  equipped.  They  are  all  anxious 
to  be  sent  to  China.  Quartermaster 
Wheeler  has  received  orders  from  the 
war  department  at  Washington  to  ar- 
range at  once  for  the  transportation  of 
Battery  O,  Fourth  artillery,  stationed  at 
Fort  Riley,  to  San  Francisco,  and  to 
have  it  in  readiness  to  start  for  the 
Orient  on  short  notice. 

DIED  ON  DUTY. 
Lexington.  July  27.— James  R.  Clark, 
a  postal  clerk  on  the  Chesapeake  & 
Ohio,  was  found  dead  in  his  car  today 
from  heart  disease.  He  was  a  nephew  of 
the  late  United  States  Senator  James  B. 
Beck. 


New  York,  July  27.— Chairman  Jone.s 
of  the  Democratic  national  committee, 
speaking  of  his  errand  here,  said: 

"I  came  here  to  look  over  the  situa- 
tion and  talk  with  the  leaders.  I  don't 
know  how  long  I  will  stay;  possibly  I 
may  leave  tomorrow.  It  will  depend  en- 
tirely on  circumstances.  We  think  that 
the  Democratic  state  committee  officers 
are  competent  to  carry  on  the  campaign 
in  this  state." 

Asked  what  he  thought  of  the  signifi- 
cance of  the  failure  of  the  gold  Demo- 
crats to  nominate  a  third  ticket,  he  re- 
plied: 

"Why.  I  think  that  means  a  number  of 
gold  Democrats  will  vote  for  Br>an.  I 
don't  see  what  other  construction  can  be 
placed  on  it." 

Asked  about  the  anti-imperialists* 
meeting  on  Aug.  14,  he  answered: 

"That  also  will  help  Bryan  Immensely, 
and  will  help  the  Democratic  party  in 
various  ways." 

Sneaking  of  the  abi?noe  of  any  in- 
come tax  plank  in  the  Democratic  plat- 
form,  Fi-nator  jo.i3s  saiJ: 

"As  chairman  of  the  national  commit- 
tee, and  also  chairman  of  the  platform 
committee.  I  can  say  at  this  time  that 
it  was  a  matter  of  unintentional  over- 
sight that  It  was  left  out.  It  was  in  the 
platform,  but  the  stenographer,  in  re- 
vising his  notes,  left  it  out,  and  it  was 
not  noticed.  It  probably  makes  no  dif- 
ference anyhow,  as  the  platform  re-en- 
dorses the  platform  of  1896,  and  that 
necessarily  endorses  the  income  tax 
plank  in  that  platform.  We  have,  then. 
in  an  indirect  way.  it  is  true,  an  income 
tax  j)lank." 

Asked  about  the  appointment  of  an 
executive  committee.  Chairman  Jones 
said: 

"I  don't  know  when  the  DemJcratic 
national  committee  will  appoint  the  ex- 
ecutive committee,  but  it  will  be  done  in 
due  time." 

HE  FAVORED  WAR. 

WitnoM  Says  Powers  Said  So  la 
a  Latter. 

Georgetown,  Ky..  July  27.— Judge 
James  G.  Black  of  Barboursvllle,  who 
was  a  candidate  for  the  Democratic 
nomination  for  governor  before  the  re- 
cent state  convention,  testified  today  in 
the  trial  of  Caleb  Powers,  charged  with 
complicity  in  the  Goeliel  shooting,  as  to 
the  letter  which  he  said  Powers  wrote 
James  Steven,  of  Barboursvllle,  Feb.  20, 
and  in  which,  he  said,  the  statements: 
"I  am  largely  responsible  for  the  disor- 
ganized condition  of  the  Democrats,*' 
and  "I  am  an  open  advocate  of  war," 
were  used. 

Private  Williamson,  who  was  a  mem- 
ber of  the  military  company  that  was 
called  out  and  took  charge  of  the  statvj 
house  immediately  after  Goebel  was 
shot,  testified  that  the  members  of  the 
company  were  drawn  up  in  the  arsenal 
that  morning,  prior  to  the  shooting. 
They  were  given  overcoats  and  side 
arms  about  an  hour  before  the  shoot- 
ing. Witness  said  that  the  company  had 
been  kept  inside  the  arsenal  since  the 
legislature  met.  but  previous  to  that  d«^ 
had  not  been  uniformed. 

D.  H.  Sinclair,  former  manager  of  the 
Postal  Telegraph  Cable  company,  of 
Frankfort,  testified  as  to  many  tele- 
grams sent  through  his  office  before  and 
after  the  shooting.  Some  related  to  call- 
ing out  the  militia,  others  to  supplies  for 
the  mountaineers  who  came  to  Frankfort 
before  the  shooting.

Liverpool,  July  27.— At  the  second  day  s 
racing  of  the  Liverpool  July  meeting  to- 
day, the  Liverpool  cup  of  1200  sovereigns, 
a  handicap  for  3-year-olds  and  up.  one 
mile  and  three  furlongs,  was  won  by  Sko-

the  second  and  third  horses.  The  resuU 
was  received  with  icy  silence.

Iron  and  Steel  Men  State  Results  of 
Conferonoo. 

Chicago,  July  27.— The  conference  here 
of  the  Iron  and  steel  men  was  concluded 
about  noon,  at  which  time  President  Gary 
handed  copies  of  the  formal  statement  to 

newspaper  men: 

"Undue  prominence  has  been  given  to 
the  meeting  of  representatives  of  the  iron 
and  steel  Interest.  The  presidents  and 
managers  have  been  in  consultation  con- 
cerning the  situation  and  have  been  frank 
in  expressing  opinions  in  regard  to  the 
policy  which  each  Intends  to  apply  to  the 
business  of  his  company.  However.  It 
Is  the  opinion  of  all  that,  if  at  any  time 
in  any  territory  the  demand  Is  not  equi! 
to  the  production,  the  same  should  be  cur- 
tailed until  conditions   change."

In  the  County.

Years  Ago. 


The  I :'>ard  uf  ciiualizalion  will  tako  an- 
otber  rounJ  at  the  iron  mines  and  min- 
ing locations  in  this  county  next  Tues- 
day. At  that  time  the  question  of  as- 
sessing the  iron  properties  of  the  county 
will  cDme  up  for  consideration,  and 
notices  have  been  sent  to  the  parties 
interested  to  appear  then  and  take  part 
in  the  discussions.  So  far  all  the  board 
has  done  is  to  glance  over  the  returns 

made  by  th»  assessors  on  the  iron  prop- 
erties, and  no  action  will  be  taken  be- 
fore next  week. 

Th*-  asses.«ors  made  a  number  of 
changes  in  the  a.s.«essments  of  two  years 
ago.  both  up  and  down,  and  the  net 
result  is  an  increase  of  $334,676  in  the 
valuations.  It  is  likely  that  ihe  ijoard 
will  make  this  larger  by  changing  some 
of  the  values  returned  by  the  assessors. 
who  made  a  number  of  reductions  that 
the  board  is  not  likely  to  countenance. 
The  figures  given  below  do  not  include 
all  of  the  properties  that  will  be  con- 
sidered. The  Spruce  mine,  on  the  old 
Eveleth  site,  the  Fay  mine,  half  a  mile 
north  of  the  Conimodore,  and  others  are 
not  in  this  list,  and  they  will  be  lotjked 
up-  There  are  none  of  the  properties 
that  were  mere  acres  two  years  ago  and 
that  have  had  iron  mines  developed  or 
discovered  upon  them  since  on  the  list, 
and  these  too  will  be  added.  The  fig- 
ures returned  by  the  assessors,  com- 
pared with  the  equalized  figures  of  two 
years  ago,  are  given  below.  Follow- 
ing are  the  properties  that  have  been

Wednesday  the  board  will  take  up  the 
matter  of  the  St.  Paul  &  Duluth  railroad 
land.-  subj»-ct  to  taxation.  The  Nortl;<'rn 
Pacitic.  having  come  into  tills  properly, 
finds  that  it  is  assessed  too  high,  in  it-' 
opinion,  and  it  has  asked  the  board  tor  a 
reduction. 

Tbp  board  Instructed  its  clerk  to  ii^iir? 
of  the  state  authorities  as  to  whether  the 
N'"«rtbr-rR  Pncifie  rallread  bridge  is  incor- 
porated in  the  railroad  property  or  whether 
it  belongs  to  a  separate  corporation,  with 
a  view  to  placing  it  on  the  assessinent

FRANK  MAQINNIS  HERE. 

ArriYos  From  Porto  Rico  For  a  Two 
Months  Visit. 

Capt.  Frank  Ma.ginnis,  an  old  Duluth 
lu'y  who  is  now  wearing  Uncle  Sam's 
blue  as  en  officer  in  the  regular  army, 
returned  yesterday  mornign  from  his 
station  in  Porto  Rico,  acfomnanied  by 
the  bride  that  he  took  from  the  island. 
He  is  first  lieutenant  of  Oompany  A  of 
the  Eleventh  Cnited  States  infantry  and 
captain  of  Company  A  of  the  port.i  RIcl- 
regiment,  a  regiment  of  volunteers.  He 
came  straight  through  from  Porti  Ric  -. 
with  the  exception  of  a  stop  of  three 
days  in  New  York  , arriving  here  yest'^r- 
day  morning.  He  will  sjiemi  two  month;* 
here  visiting  with  his  family  .and  vvil.i 
his  many  old  friends,  unless  orders  to 
the  .ontrary  are  received  terminating 
hi  sleave.  His  regiment  is  undt  r  orders 
in  Port4»  Rico,  and  exj>*'  -is  to  move  any 
time,  probably  back  to  the  slates.

CHICAGO  MERCHANT  HERE. 

Emanuel  Mandel.  of  the  big  firm  of 
Mandel  Bros.,  Chicago,  is  in  the  city  on 
his  return  fr>m  a  visit  at  Yellowstone, 
uark.  Mr.  Mandel  left  Clcago  about  a 
month  ago,  and  during  the  interim  has 
been  traveling  through  several  of  the 
Western  states,  visiting  the  park  and  ob- 
serving the  business  conditions  of  the 
West  and  Northwest.  Yellov\stone  paik 
he  characterized  as  one  of  the  finest 
thinss  that  he  has  ever  seen,  not  ex- 
cepting the  sights  in  Europe,  the  Holy 
Land  and  the  Orient,  w  hich  he  visited  a 
few  years  ago.  Travel  in  the  park,  he 
s>::ys.  is  tedious,  but  the  magnificent 
views  more  than  repay  one  for  his  ex- 
ertion. Mr.  Mandel  says  there  are  many 
visitors  at  the  nark  now. 

Business  conditions  throughout  the  West 
where  he  visited.  Mr.  Mandel  said,  were 
surprising  to  him,  for  he  found  tilings 
prosperous  and  the  people  with  unbounded 
confidence  in  the  government.  lie  predict- 
ed that  Colorado  would  go  Republican  this 
year.  The  people  there,  he  says,  have  so 
much  gold  now  that  silver  does  "not  cut  any 
figure  with  them. 

Mr.  Mandel  said  that  he  found  busiues..^ 
conditions  good  throughout  thli  North- 
west. Wheat  croi>s  in  the  Dakotas,  he 
says,  will  be  heavier  than  were  »'xpectcd 
a  ff w  weeks  ago  and  the  farmers  are 
feeling  much  encouraged.  This  i.«  Mr. 
Mandels  first  visit  to  Duluth  and  he  ex- 
pressed himself  as  plea.=ed  with  the  city. 

■"Ycu  have  here"  said  he.  •'what  we  ca.n

mense c^ty  here  some  day.  I  am  aston- 
ished by  the  magnitude  of  Duluth's  inter- 
ests." 

Mr.  Mandel  visited  several  of  the  large 
stores  this  moririiigr  and  commented  c  n

"An  official  telegram  rece'ved  here  on

The  cablegram  is  somewhat  confused, 
liut  is  given  out  exactly  as  received  by

another  named  Perkins,  and  the  Misses 
Gould  ami  Morrill. 

Taoting  is  about  fifteen  miU-s  south-

Buluth  Board  of  Trad*.  July  27.— The 
whcitt  market  .started  out  fairly  active 
:ind  tirm  tiiis  morningr.  The  chief  cau?e 
ot  strength  was  an  advance  of  Tslild  at 
Liverpool.  f/Ul  .-rome  selling  was  induced 
by  the  heavy  Argentine  shipments,  which 
were  said  to  amount  to  1.400.(i00  bus.  This 
influence  caused  a  decline  from  the  open- 

ir  ■=.  i'Ut  a  rally  followed.  The  mar- 

ie firm   ti'   the  close,   which   was  "%

in  bad  condition,  and  Europe  Is  afraid  to 
falls  upon  this  country.  As  we  .^^ald  before, 
buv  there;  hence  the  whole  of  the  demand 
the  legitimate  situation  is  very  strong.  The 
demand  is  exceeding  the  supply  and  as 
long  as  this  continues  prices  are  going  to 
go  higher.  Weather  was  favorable  for  the 
growing  crop.  Estimated  receipts  tomor- 
row. 350  cars. 

Oats  ruled  quiet  all  day  on  light  trade, 
an<l  with  no  s|><cial  feature,  closing  V"''4C 
liigher  than  last  night  in  sympathy  with 
the  strength  in  wheat  and  corn.  Country 
offtrings  were  light,  but  there  was  rather 
better  cash  demand  and  a  fair  business  re- 
ported worked  for  export.  Estimated  l&o 
oars. 

The  provision  market  opened  strong  to- 
day and  advanced  steadily  all  day.  L.ight 
rt*ceipts  of  hogs,  stronger  grain  and  cover- 
ing by  local  shorts  were  the  cause  of  the 
aijvance.  Cash  trade  reported  as  very 
good  and  our  stock  of  ribs  alone  so  far  this 
month,  shows  about  a.oOO.wm  l*us  reduction. 
U'e  consider  the  situation  as  stronger  than 
it  has  been  in  months.  Packers  have  lost 
control  of  the  hog  market  and  we  expect 
good  advances.  Estimate,  13,(KW  hogs  for 
tomorrow

WEARES  REPORT. 
Chicago.  July  27.— The  wheat  market 
has  been  a  firm  one.  although  trade  lia.^ 
been  remarkably  lisht.  The  strength  has 
been  inspired  rnainly  by  •ontinued  cash 
improvement  and^higher  Liverpool  \alue3. 
an  advance  of  lVi!4d  beinc  scored  by  that 
market  since  yesterday.  This  in  combi..a- 
ti'^n  together  with  emphatic  claims  •■^ 
very  poor  prospects  and  threshing  re|^uriis 
from  the  Northwestern  wheat  district 
has  induced  an  Advance  over  vestcrdav'* 
close  of  abotit  Ic  a  bus.  The  Modern  Mi'.kr 
was  ouite  bullish  as  regards  wheat, 
claiming  that  rains  which  have  been  ben- 
eficial to  com  were  detrimental  to  w.'ieat. 
A  much  betf^r  rash  inquirv  has  been 
■created  th«   la  «t   few  dav»;  oa«h  9»4e»  of 

js'lieai  .tQday  110,000  b^^  g.u  Loi^  r^fiojj,-. 


ed  250.000  bus  No.  2  red  sold  for  export. 
Southern  Illinois  millers  are  complaining 
they  cannot  get  enough  good  milling  wheat 
to  run  their  mills,  and  have  to  come  to 
centers  for  supplies.  Minneapolis  jlour 
trade,  however,  seems  to  be  at  a  stand- 
still and  reports  of  many  mills  clftsmg 
down.  Notwithstanding  the  fact  that  tiic 
Chicago  wheat  market  just  now  is  being 
made  a  sort  of  dumping  ground  for  hedged 
wheat  against  Southwest  purchases,  the 
market  show.s  a  stuijborn  resistance  indi- 
cative of  a  very  strong  undertone.  The 
pressure  of  this  hedging  and  selling  is 
quite  severe  and  it  may  last  fyr  some  time 
yet;  this,  together  with  the  fact  that 
speculative  trade  is  so  small,  makes  ad- 
vances of  a  couple  of  cents  a  bushel  an 
attractive  profit  taking  point  for  the  local 
crowd.  The  market  temporarily  has  the 
appearance  of  being  jiurely  a  scalping 
one  with  prospects  of  reacting  after  euch 
advance,  conFcquentl.v  we  are  of  the  opin- 
ion that  it"  may  b>'  iios.sible  to  buy  this 
wheat  lower  down;  probably  not  very 
much  as  the  situation  is  too  strong  to  war- 
rant any  serious  decline,  while  later  on 
we  feel  confident  that  a  return  to  very 
much  higher  range  of  prices  Is  inevitable 
and  would  strongly  urge  our  clients  tQ.  buy 
this  wheat  on  all  weak  spots,  stay  with  it 
.and  with  patience  probably  the  only  ncc- 
essr.ry  commodity  very  handsome  returns 
will  result. 

Tbe  corn  mirket  has  been  firm  without 
special  feature,  but  showing  a  natural  re- 
active tendency  after  prevailing  weak 
tone.  Countr>  oiYerings  extremelv  small. 
Reports  from  crop  exiwrts  are  quite  bull- 
ish on  corn,  reporting  the  condition  south 
of  the  Ohio  river  unsatisfactory.  The  cash 
situation  in  corn  remains  ver.v  strong  in- 
deed as  indicated  by  the  prevailing  pre- 
mium of  both  July  and  August  over  the 
.Septemb»*r  option.  While  outside  specula- 
tion is  lacking,  the  market  is  not  likely 
Ui  show  much  movement  and  we  do  not 
believe  that  these  prices  at  all  represent 
the  intrinsic  value  of  corn. 

The  oat  maiiti-t  has  been  quiet  and  svm- 
pathetic    without    any    particular    feature. 

The  provl.=ion  market  has  been  strong 
today,  shorts  covering.  Packers  also 
bought.  We  feel  friendly  to  the  provision 
market.

CLOSING  WAS  DULL 


Bond  Prices  Weli  Sustained, 

Despite  the    Lightness 

of  the  Demand. 


New  York,  July  27. — Prices  of  a  number 
of  stocks  opened  at  sharp  fractional  ad- 
vances, those  which  suffered  largest  loss- 
es yesterday  being  most  conspicuous.  Con- 
solidated Gas  recovered  its  2-point  loss, 
Brooklyn  Transit  rose  about  a  point  and 
Cnion  Pacific,  Baltimore  &  Ohio.  Atchi- 
soti,  St.  Paul  and  Tennessee  Coal  rose 
from  a  Va  to  %.  The  demand  was  dull. 
Trading  was  very  apathetic  for  a  period 
after  the  opening.  A  demand  sprang  up 
for  Brooklyn  Transit,  which  lifted  it 
above  59,  and  there  were  some  smail  gains 
in  sympathy  elsewhere,  the  local  tractions 
rising  over  a  point.  No  noteworthy 
changes  resulted  from  the  second  hours 
trading  in  stocks.  The  market  was  per- 
ceptibly easier,  with  the  specialties  most 
aftected.  Near  midday.  busl:iess  livened 
up  and  the  market  hardened  to  the  best. 
Bond  prices  were  well  sustained  despite 
the   lightness   of   the  demand. 

Prices  sagged  in  the  last  hour  from  inac- 
tion. Sugar  rose  2  points  and  Brooklyn 
Transit  a  point.  American  Hoop  lost  1, 
and  the  preferred.  3.  Otherwise,  changes 
were  small.  The  closing  was  dull  and  easy 
at  a  slightly  higher  level  of  prices.

PAINLESSNESS^ OF  DEATH. 

There  need  be  no  shrinking  dread  of 
the  "pangs  of  dissolution,"  the  "final 
agony."  for  such  things  have  little  ex- 
istence save  in  di-surdered  imaginatiun.s. 
Ask  any  physician  who.se  head  is  sil- 
vered over  with  g:ay.  and  he  will  tell 
you  that  while  disease  is  often  painlful. 
death  itself  is  gentle,  painless,  natural, 
like  the  fading  of  a  flower  or  the  falling 
of  a  leaf.  It  is  literally  true  that  there 
Is  a  time  to  die  as  well  as  to  live,  and 
v.hen  that  time  cimes  the  event  be- 
comes not  only  tolerable,  but.  like  all 
other  processes.  de.=  irable:  every  fitire  of 
our  tired,  worn-out  being  derhands  it. 
says  "The  Gospel  According  to  Darwin." 
by  Dr.  Woods  Hutchinson. 

The  overwhelmin;?  majority  of  such 
tee  ords  of  authenti  i  "last  words"  as  wo 
po.ssess  re-echo  the  sayign  of  Charles  II 
en  his  deathbed:  "If  this  be  dying 
nothing  could  be  easier." 

Even  in  such  ai  extrerb«  case  as 
death  under  the  fargs  of  wild  In^asts,  all 
those  who  have  Kone  very  near  the 
Valley-  of  the  Shaic'otr  from  this  can?- 
unite  in  testifying,  incrediljle  as  it  may 
.-ecm,  that  after  tie  fir.st  shock  of  t!ie 
attack  there  is  absolutely  no  sensation 
of  pain. 

For  instance,  Li^in.gstone,  upon  onf 
occasion,  was  po"uroed  upon  by  a  lion, 
which  felled  him  to  the  ground;  ajid, 
making  his  teeth  rieet  in  his  shoulder, 
dragged  him  a  considerable  distance  intr 
the  jungle  befOte  his  foUoWeffc  conlfl 
come  to  his  assistance.  Livingstone  as- 
sertfr  rnost  positively  that  he  •was  p*>r- 
fettly  conscious  of  what  was  hapipening 
\vb$a  jbg  yis^.  b^im;  Qdox^^i  could  bgac 


the  cries  of  his  friends,  and  wondered 
how  long  it  would  take  them  to  reach 
him,  but  that  he  felt  no  pain  or  feai 
whale\er,  nothing  but  a  strange  drow.sy 
dreamy  sensation.  And  yet  his  shoulder 
was  so  .severely  injured  that  he  nev.»r 
fully  recovered  the  use  of  it.  and  his 
b  'dy  was  identiJied  after  death  by  th  • 
scars. 

Sir  Samuel  Baker  reports  a  similar  ex- 
pejience  with  a  lear  which  he  had 
wounded.  The  great  brute  felled  him 
by  a  stunning  blow  from  its  paw.  and 
he  was  aroused  to  consciousness  by  its 
crunching  the  bones  of  his  hand:  it  con- 
tinued the  process  up  his  arm.  and  had 
almost  reaL-hed  the  shoulder  before  the 
re.scuing  party  could  reach  him.  and  yet 
Sir  Samuel  declares  that  he  felt  no  pain 
whatever,  and  that  his  only  sen.satloii 
V.  as  one  of  intense  resentment  against 
the  beast  for  seeming  to  enjoy  the  taste 
of  him  so  much.  Nor  are  the.se  liy  any 
means  exceptional  instances,  as  many 
other  such  reports  could  be  collected, 
and  it  is  almost  an  axiom  with  surgeons 
that  the  severer  the  injury  the  less  the 
pain.  Many  a  man  has  received  his 
death-wound  and  never  known  it  until 
his  strength   began  to  fail. 


OPERA  CARAMEL.S. 
One  of  the  most  .succe.ssful  home-made 
candies  is  the  opera  caramel,  that  some- 
how takes  on  a  professional  air.  however 
it  may  be  handled.  Take  three  cups  of 
granulated  sugar  and  add  to  it  a  cup  of 
cream  and  a  little  less  than  a  salt- 
spoonful  of  cream  of  tartar.  Bjil  this 
in  a  double  boiler,  and  as  it  has  no  ten- 
dency to  grrain,  it  may  be  stirred  during 
the  process.  Boil  until  it  may  be  oaKilv 
molded  into  a  soft  ball.  Then  flavor 
with  vanilla  or  chooDlatc  and  stir  In 
f  hopped  assorted  nuts;  when  it  gets 
suffirienitly  cool  roll  out  and  cut  Into 
caramels. 


When  you  see  it  in  Tbe 
can  rely  upon  it— 4hat  It  la

NEW  PLAN 
PROPOSED 

Bov.  Lind  Proposes  a  New 

Plan  of  Bookkeeping  In 

County  Offices. 

THE  ONE  ACCOUNTANT 


Keep 


Would    Have  Auditor 
Only  Becord  of  Public 
Honey  on  Hand. 


this  tournament  there  will  be  a  large 
number  of  the  best  marksmen  from  all 
over  the  Northwest.  The  shoot  for  the 
diamond  medal  will  not  occur  until  a 
week  from  Sunday. 


Xegotiations  are  going'  on  at  the  state 
capitol  by  which  a  change  in  the  sys- 
tem of  accounting  for  public  money  in 
the  various  counties  of  the  state  may  be 
effected.  Governor  Lind,  in  a  Jatte*'  to 
State  Examiner  Pope,  has  recently  sug- 
gested the  change,  and  since  it  meets 
the  approval  of  the  examiner  ard  of 
other  state  officials,  there  is  a  strong 
probability  that  the  plan  w  ill  be  .idopied 
and  become  operative. 

Accompanying  his  suggestion  of  the 
innovation  in  the  county  system  jf  book- 
keeping, the  chief  executive  sent  a  rec- 
ommendation that  a  commission  be  ap- 
pointed to  submit  the  present  system  t. 
the  next  legislature,  with  provisions  for 
improvement  thereupon. 

The  suggestion  of  the  governor  i^  to 
give  to  a  commission,  selected  with  "he 
approval  of  the  state  auditor,  the  dutj*  of 
formulating  a  plan  by  which  the  entire 
bookkeeping  of  the  county  may  be 
transferred  from  the  various  offioe.s  and 
given  over  to  the  auditor,  who,  it  's  sug- 
gested, shall  Ix-  the  bookkeeper  of  the 
county.  This  does  not  mean  to  alter  the 
present  system  of  keeping  the  funds  .,r 
the  manner  of  iisliursement  thereof.  It 
is  propo.sed  that  the  treasurer  shall  still 
be  the  custodian  of  the  money,  and  that 
it  shall  be  drawn  out  upon  the  auditors 
warrant. 

This  plan,  the  governor  belives.  wilt 
preclude  the  possibility  of  frequent 
shortages  in  county  funds.  In  his  letter 
to  Public  Examiner  Pope  he  calls  atten- 
tion to  the  fact  that  there  have  been 
three  such  shortages  during  the  pr'j.sent 
administration,  and  he  attriubtes  them 
to  lax  business  methods  rather  than  a 
desire  to  be  dishonest. 

A  system  of  warrant  registers  to  be 
made  use  of  in  the  c-ounty  otHce.s  of 
treasurer  and  auditor  wa.s  also  .suggest- 
ed in  the  letter. 

Examiner  Pope  has  submitted  :•.  letter 
in  reply  to  the  governor's  comminuta- 
tion,  expressing  his  approval  of  ihe  plan 
suggested.  He  urged  the  immediate  ap- 
]  ointment  of  the  commission  menliimed, 
in  order  that  all  necessary  preliminaries 
to  the  drafting  of  the  desired  plan  could 
be  disposed  of.  He  recommendeil  that 
this  commission  enter  upon  the  dnties  >.f 
it.«  office  as  soon  after  its  appointment  as 
possible. 

The  suggestion  of  Governor  TJnd  ha.« 
also  been  endorsed  l)y  State  Auditor 
Dunn  and  his  deputy,  S.  G.  Iver.-on. 


NEWS  TO  THEM, 

Superior  Makes  Same  Dis- 
covery as  Did  St.  Louis 
County  Officials. 

The  board  of  assessors  now  in  session 
over  in  Superior,  has  made  what  it 
thinks  is  a  startling  discovery.  The 
board  in  its  investgation  of  several  mat- 
ters relating  to  the  interests  of  the  city 
have  found  that  the  Northern  Pacific 
bridge  between  Duluth  and  Superior, 
and  the  old  St.  Paul  &  Duluth  br'idge 
between  West  Duluth  and  Superior,  do 
not  belong  to  the  Northern  Pacific  rail- 
road company,  but  are  owned  by  private 
corporations  and  should  be  assessed  by 
the  city.  Supposing  that  the  bridges 
were  operated  by  the  railroad  com- 
panies using  them,  the  city  has  not 
taxed  them,  but  according  to  law  they 
havebeen  taxed  by  the  state  of  Wiscon- 
sin, with  all  the  railroads,  and  the  taxes 
have  gone  directly  to  the  state. 

The  board  of  assessors  of  Superior  de- 
clare that  this  year  the  Superior  ends 
of  the  bridges  will  be  assessed  by  the 
city.  The  assessors,  it  is  said  will  also 
tax  the  bridges  for  the  past  three  years 
and  endeavor  to  collect  from  the  cor- 
porations the  amount  that  they  have 
paid  the  state.  Providing  they  are  suc- 
cessful, it  will  lead  to  a  lawsuit  between 
the  corporations  and  the  state,  in  which 
the  former  will  try  to  recover  the  taxes 
that  they  have  paid  to  the  state,  but 
the  assessors  say  that  the  city  will  not 
be  brought  into  the  controversy. 

While  the  discovery  that  the  bridges 
do  not  belong  to  the  railroad  companies 
using  them  may  be  new  at  West  Su- 
perior it  has  been  known  to  the  local 
officials  for  sOme  time  and  County  At- 
torney Phelps  has  instructed  the  board 
of  assessors  to  assess  the  Duluth  ends 
of  the  bridges  and  bring  about  a  test 
case.  If  the  county  is  successful  in 
the  suit,  then  an  effort  will  be  made  to 
collect  the  taxes  for  three  years  past.

WATERMELONS 


■issouri  Product  Will  Arrive 

Saturday  In  Large 

Numbers. 

There  will  be  plenty  of  watermelons 
in  the  market  from  Saturday  on,  llie 
advanceguard  of  the  Missouri  contingent 
being  due   then.     They   will   then   roo.-t 

considerably  lower.  The  freight  on  the 
Texas  melons,  which  have  supplied  the 
market  up  to  this  time,  is  in  the  neiiri- 
borhood  of  18  cents  per  melon,  on  the 
average — that  is  to  say,  after  buying  the 
me!on  from  the  gr)Wtr  it  is  neces.sarv 
to  buy  it  again  from  the  railroad  com- 
nany.  However,  it  is  a  long  trip,  seven 
days'  haul,  and  the  frail  freight  must 
be  rushed  through,  and  the  rate  does  not 
seem  unduly  high,  to  an  outsider,  at 
least.  Tne  freight  charge  on  the  Missouri 
melon  is  less  than  half  the  Texas  rate. 

After  the  Missouri  melons  will  come 
the  lowas,  and  the  best  in  the  world 
come  from  the  Hawkeye  state,  and  the 
section  around  Muscatine  builds  a  melon 
that  is  consid<»red  the  best  of  the  fine.it. 
The  lowas  will  be  here  in  two  or  three 
weeks.  They  will  last  until  ttie  end  of 
the  melon  sea.son,  up  into  September. 

Southern  Illinois  grapes,  which  follow 
the  Georgias  are  about  due  now. 

Georgia  grapes  are  due  now  shortly, 
and  the  Southern  Illinois  fruit  will  fol- 
low. 

After  they  begin  to  come  there  will 
be  no  let-up.  for  Michigan  and  Ohio 
then  drop  into  line,  and  so  on  East. 

Potatoes  were  weaker.  38  cents  being 
struck  and  40  cents  being  the  hi^»le^t 
price  obtainable  as  a  rule.  The  Minne- 
sotas  are  coming  in  in  good  volume  now 
and  the  market  is  unsteady. 

Plums  are  coming  into  the  market  in 
good  quantity  now  and  all  demands  can 
be  taken  care  of. 

PoultiT  is  steady.  Springs,  which  are 
coming  in  freely,  are  quoted  around  1;> 
cents.  Old  hens  are  scarce  and  roo.st 
around  9  cents. 

Eggs  are  firmer.  ll%@ll%c  being  tne 
mark.  Cheese  sh'iws  a  firmer  tone,  but 
figures  are  unchanged,  and  butter  is 
steady. 


to  Appfar  In  Conctrt. 

Mr.  and  Mrs.  Gaston  Borch  will  ap- 
pear at  a  grand  concert  given  by  Mr. 
Flaaten  at  Armory  hall  July  31,  at  8  p. 
m.  Mr.  Borch  played  in  Brussels  (Bel- 
gium) last  year,  accompanied  by  the 
opera  orchestra.  The  principal  musical 
paper  of  that  city,  "Libre  Critique, 
says  about  his  playing: 

"We  have  in  our  country  many  good 
cellolsts,  and  we  are  a  little  sceptical 
when  a  foreign  soloist  is  announced  to 
appear.  We  must  admit  that  Mr. 
Borch  is  a  fine  player  and  that  his  pro- 
ducion  of  tone  on  the  cello  is  unsur- 
passed. Mrs.  Borch  has  had  a  good 
number  of  j^ccesses  In  Germany  as  an 
opera  and  concert  singer  and  is  very 
much  appre<'iated  in  Chicago."

A  BIHEB  FIBHT, 

Thiro  Will  Bs  a  Hot  Campaign  In 
Kentucky. 

According  to  Lou  G.  Wallace,  of  the 
Kentucky  State  Democrat,  of  Frankfort, 
Ky.,  Governor  Beckham  is  certain  to 
be  re-elected  governor  of  the  most  tur- 
bulent commonwealth  of  Kentucky.  Mr. 
Wallace  is  one  of  the  party  of  editor- 
that  arrived  at  the  head  of  the  lakes  this 
morning.  He  is  a  Democrat  himself,  and 
firmly   believes  that  his  party   will     bt? 

victorious  in  the  Stnith  this  fall,  al- 
though he  considers  Yerkes  a  ve:y  hard 
man  to  beat  in  Kentucky.  Ilegardint; 
the  situation  in  his  state,  Mr.  ^\'alh^ce 
said : 

"Beckham  i.s  the  logical  outcome  of  a'i 
the  troulile  Kentucky  has  pass  "d 
through  within  the  past  year.  He  was 
the  lieutenant  governor  at  the  tiiix-  G.)e- 
bel  was  assassinated,  and  since  Mr. 
Taylor  has  seen  fit  to  retire  from  the 
field,  Beckham  has  been  in  the  -.guber- 
natorial chair,  where  he  has  proved  liirr.- 
.self  to  be  well  worthy  of  the  tru.=:  of  his 
party  and  of  all  decent  peopl?  in  the 
state. 

"We  realize  iliat  Mr.  Yerk»^s  will  he  n 
very  hard  man  it)  beat.  He  has  an  ab- 
solutely clean  record,  and  is  a  man  re- 
spected by  all  regardless  of  oplitics. 
That  the  Repul>lican  party  believes  him 
to  be  the  one  man  who  could  stand  a 
chance  of  carrying  the  state  wa«  shown 
when  he  was  nominated  by  acclam.:(tion. 
for  the  Republicans  are  certainly 
anxious  to  win  the  election.  Nevefthe- 
less,  I  believe  Beckham  will  be  elected 
by  a  very  large  majority. 

"The  action  of  the  governor  of  Illinois 
in  refusing  to  honor  the  extradition 
papers  for  Taylor  refiects  little  credit  on 
that  state.  Taylor  will  be  granted  as 
fair  and  impartial  a  trial  in  Kentucky 
as  he  would  in  Minnesota." 

Tha  Police  Court. 

Stanley  K.  Svckit-  was  arraigned  in  po- 
lice court  this  morning  for  thrilling  a 
quantity  of  emotional  lava  at  John  Sulli- 
van, and  calling  him  names  th:it  didn't 
sound  as  well  as  lho.«e  Mr.  Sullivan's 
friends  knew  him  by.  When  he  said  he 
was  not  suilty  the  hearing  was  set  for 
later  in  the  day.  ^      , 

Edward  Wells,  an  alleged  robber,  got  ten 
davs  for  drunkenness  as  did  Nels  Foss 
man.  John  Lastaca  paid  a  fine  of  $12  for 
trespassing  and  Peter  Lind  and  Lawrence 
Glynn  were  allowed  to  go  under  suspended

Returns  From  Buying  Trip. 

T.  C.  Phillips,  of  the  firm  of  Phillips 
&  Co.,  has  just  returned  from  a  month's 
visit  at  the  Eastern  markets,  where  he 
has  been  buying  largely  for  his  busineos 
in  order  to  meet  the  increase  in  trade. 
Mr.  PhlUins  does  not  think  that  the 
nresent  demand  alone  necessitated  the 
increase  in  stock,  but  he  looks  for  an 
excellent  fall  and  winter  trade  here.  Mr. 
Fhillips  says  that  the  retailers  in  the 
East  report  the  business  situation  to  be 
in  a  favorable  condition,  but  the  whole- 
salers say  that  there  is  much  more  con- 
servative buying  now  than  there  was  at 
the  same  time  last  season.

Conflicting  theories  of  suicide  and  ac- 
cident perplex  the  authorities  in  connec- 
tion with  two  mysterious  death?  las' 
night.  Frank  T.  Anderson  is  supposc-d 
to  have  ended  his  wrecked  life  by  tak- 
ing thirty  grains  of  pulverized  opium, 
when  two  or  three  grains  wo'Jld  have 
been  sufficient.  The  second  corpse  is  at 
Durkan's  undertaking  rooms.  It  was 
found  at  an  early  hour  this  morning  on 
the  Duluth  &  Iron  Range  tracks  aj 
Eleventh  avenue  east.  The  man  prob- 
ably fell,  or  was  pushed  off  the  stone 
wall  at  that  place  and  was  dashed  to 
his  death  on  the  tracks  fully  thirty  feet 
below.  The  authorities  say  there  are 
several  threads  that  may  lead  to  another 
theory,  and  a  postmortem  examination 
will  tae  held  this  evening. 

The  body  of  Frank  Anderson  is  at 
Tibbett's  undertaking  rooms.  He  was 
found  dead  in  his  room  over  X.  Beam 
ish's  saloon,  2008  West  Superior  street, 
at  10:30  last  evening.  It  may  nevi.r  ik' 
known  whether  he  took  the  overdose  uf 
opium  intentionally  or  accidentally,  but 
the  indications  are  that  suicide  wa.--  pre- 
meditated. He  had  been  an  opium  and 
morphine  fiend  for  years,  and  must  have 
known  that  over  two  grains  would  likely 
prove  fatal. 

He  swallowed  thirty  grains,  and  is 
supposed  to  have  died  within  a  vuiy 
short  time.  Another  30-grain  pjwd.''- 
was  taken  from  his  pocket  at  the  morgut 
along  with  several  letters  from  hi^ 
mother  begging  him  to  quit  the  fast  lif-.- 
he  was  leading  and  return  to  her  home 
at  Omro,  Wis. 

Yesterday  afternoon  Anderson,  wl-.o  is 
employed  as  a  bartender  in  Mr.  Beam- 
ish's  saloon,  complained  of  feeling  badly 
and  went  upstairs  saying  he  would  take 
a  short  rest.  The  proprietor  of  the  sa- 
loon was  away  most  of  the  afternoon 
and  evening,  and  returning  shortly  after 
10  o'clock  he  went  to  the  bartender's 
nxnTi  to  see  what  was  the  matter.  lU- 
found  Anderson  lying  across  the  b.-cl. 
face  down  and  life  extinct.  The  body 
was  taken  to  Tibbett's  undertaking 
rooms,  where  it  is  held  pending  negotia- 
tions for  the  funeral  arrangements  with 
relatives. 

Anderson  has  been  known  as  a  very 
hard  drinker.  He  is  about  :'.'»  years  of 
age,  rather  good  looking  except  for  the 
trace's  of  dissipation.  He  has  a  wife 
living  at  Fargo,  and  from  the  letters  oa 
his  person  his  mother's  home  is  Omro, 
Winnebago  county.  Wis.  Last  winter 
he  worked  behind  the  bar  at  Haydcn's 
Palm  garden. 

A  deep  veil  of  mystery  .seems  to  hang 
over  the  identitv  and  killing  of  the  n'.an 
now  at  Durkan  &  Crawford's  undertak- 
ing rooms.  Just  about  daybreak  this 
morning  the  Itody  was  discovered  in  the 
ditch  alongside  the  Duluth  &  Iron 
Range  road,  at  the  foot  of  the  high 
stone  wall  at  Eleventh  avenue  east.  The 
natural  supposition  is  that  the  man, 
while  intoxicated,  was  trying  to  find  his 
way  to  the  Eleventh  avenue  stairway 
and  down  to  the  tracks.  Missing  th.^ 
stairs  he  may  have  pitched  head  fore- 
most ever  the  wall.  The  right  side  of 
his  head  was  very  badly  bruised,  but 
there  were  no  cuts  such  as  would  result 
from  such  a  terrific  fall.  The  hands 
were  bruised  some,  and  the  postmortem 
examination  may  show  that  the  neck  i.; 
broken.  But  still  foul  play  is  a  possi- 
bility. The  dead  man  does  not  have  tne 
appearance  of  a  drinking  man.  In  fact 
several  persons  that  have  seen  Iho  body 
say  they  remember  the  face  liut  can  not 
remember  having  heard  the  man's  name. 
He  may  have  been  a  driver,  as  a  number 
of  harness  rings  were  found  in  his 
pockets.  He  was  dressed  like  a  n'orkmg 
man,  with  a  dark  flannel  shirt  and  ovc- 
alls  He  has  a  rather  dark  shade  of  rert 
hair  and  a  lighter  colored  mustache  and 
blue  eyes.  His  no.se  is  slightly  over  ^h.: 
medium  length  and  rather  thin.  He  is 
about  .5  feet  8  inches  in  height,  and 
weighs  from  145  to  150  pounds.  The  post- 
mortem examination   will    ue   held  tnis 

There  was  nothing  about  the  body  to 
identify  it  except  a  Bethel  baggage 
check  numbered  64'tO.  ITp  to  a  late  hour 
this  afternoon  his  baggage  had  not  lieen 
Icckted  by  the  Bethel  authorities 

Later— Later  this  afternoon  the  Bethel 
officials  said  that  a  man  giving  his  name 
as  Tim  Rvan  had  been  given  baggage 
check  No.  6490  on  July  17  last.  The  re- 
mains at  Durkan's  are  supposed  to  be 
those  of  Mr  Ryan,  but  little  else  could 
be  fearned  regarding  him  from  the  Bethel.

HERBS  IN  COOKING. 

Sweet  and  savory  herbs  are  absolutely 
indispensable  to  good  cooking;  they  give 
variety  and  savory  flavors  to  the  dish 
into  which  they  enter,  and  nearly  all  of 
some  decided  sanitary  use.  Sage,  thyme, 
summer  savory,  sweet  marjoram,  farra- 
gon,  sweet  basil,  rosemary,  mint,  cher- 
vil, dill  and  parsley,  will  grow  abundant- 
ly with  little  care,  and  when  dried  and 
added  judiciously  to  food,  greatly  im- 
proves its  flavor.  All  herbs  should  be 
firathered  in  the  sunshine,  and  dried  by 
artificial  heat;  their  fiavor  is  best  ore- 
served  by  keeping  them  in  air-tijiht 
cans.

toast.

Aged  Negress  Murdered  By 

a  Mob  That  invades 

Her  Home. 


New  Orleans.  July  i'7. — A  mob  entered 
Ifie  home  of  Hanna  Maybry.  at  1229 
Roseau  street,  at  1  o'clock  this  morninc', 
and  munlt'red  the  helpless  woman,  who 
was  62  years  old.  The  mob  was  osten- 
sibly seeking:  tw»  notorioug  negroes  s^.iil 
to  reside  there.  Mrs.  Maybry,  her  used 
husband,  a  son  and  his  infant  we:-- 
asIeeD  in  the  house  when  the  mob  fil- 
tered. They  opened  fire  '>n  .Mrs.  Maybr\ 
when  she  aro.se  from  bed  to  ascertain 
■vvtiat  was  the  cause  <>f  the  disturbanc  . 
She  died  shortly  afterwards.  The  nn  b 
failed  to  f\nd  the  men  they  were  seel^ini;. 
and  immediately  left  the  scene  of  th;ir 
unmovoked  murder. 

Mr^.  Mayliry's  sm  claims  to  hav" 
rect)Knized  two  of  the  murderers  an.l 
gave  their  names  to  the  z»oHce. 

There  were  disturbances  reported  this 
morniiisr  from  various  uarts  of  the  city. 
ITubably  due  to  the  fact  that  more 
nei;i.ie.s  ventured  out  t'lan  on  yesterday. 

Special  p  dice  during  the  nighi  and 
early  in  the  morning:  gathered  in  a  large 
numl)er  of  men  on  the  streets  who  were 
unable  to  give  a  satisfactory  account  if 
themselves,  and  it  is  thought  the  effect 
will  be  to  gradually  restore  order.  One 
neero  was  beaten  on  Poydras  street 
ah'»ut  H  t'clock.  l>ut  citizens  interfered 
and  eaurhl  one  of  the  toughs.

ORE  MOVEMENT. 

Dispatch  Poor  and  Consider- 
able Ore  Being  Put  on 
tlie  Doclcs. 

Cleveland,  July  27.— The  Iron  Trade 
Review  says:  The  iron  ore  market  is 
without  feature  of  interest.  Now  and 
then  a  letter  has  come  from  an  ore 
buyer  suggesting  that  the  order  of  the 
day  in  the  iron  market  is  a  revision  of 
prices,  but  there  has  l>een  at  no  time 
any  doubt  as  to  the  position  sellers  of 
ore  would  take  on  this  matter.  No 
meeing  has  been  held  by  he  Bessemer 
Ore  association  nor  by  the  non- Bes- 
semer producers,  but  the  executive 
committee  represents  the  sentiment  of 
all  producers  without  exception  in  say- 
ing that  there  will  be  no  change  in  the 
opening  prive.  While  no  quotations 
are  heard,  because  buyers  are  not  in- 
quiring, it  is  intimated  that  the  only 
possible  exceptions  to  the  rule  as  to 
pi  ice  are  those  of  certain  Mesaba  ores 
that  have  n<»t  become  established  in  the 
market.  The  freight  situation  has  set- 
tled down  practically  to  contract  ton- 
nage; shiopers  are  not  in  the  market 
for  wild  boats.  Di.spatch  is  none  too 
good,  and  considerable  ore  is  being  put 
on  docks,  as  is  likely  to  be  the  case 
now  throughout  the  season.

eiclfil  to  name  candidates  tor  a  number  of

SPEECH^Y  BRYIN. 

Will   Discuss   Imparlalism   In   His 
Acesptance. 

Lincoln.  Neb..  July  -7. — William  J. 
I'-ryan  said  today  that  in  his  natilication 
speech  at  Indianapolis  he  will  follow  the 
plan  which  he  pursued  at  the  notifica- 
tion meeting  ia  189(5. 

"The  platform  of  that  year,"  he  said, 
"ileclared  the  money  question  to  b*-  a 
paramount  i.s.xue,  and  in  my  notification 
speech  1  devoted  almo.st  all  the  lime  to 
the  dis  irssion  of  this  question,  leaving 
the  other  questions  to  lie  considered  in 
my  letter  of  acceptance  and  in  subse- 
quent speeclies. 

•This  year  the  platform  declares  the 
ciuestion  of  Imperialism  to  be  the  naia- 
mount  question,  and  it  will  be  the  only 
•  •ne  dealt  with  at  any  length  in  my 
noijfication  speech.  Tr.ie  remaining 
remaining  questions  covered  by  the  plal  - 
form  will  be  taken  up  in  my  letter  of 
acceptance  and  subsequent  s.'^>eeches.  "

Washin.gton.  July  27. — Too  many  h.ird 
lu.k   stoiies    have    sjjoiled    a    nice    little 
scheme    which    had    been    arranged    by 
Boss  Hanna  and  the  minors  of  the  Re- 
publican party  for  the  coining  campaign. 
The  fact  that  so  much  good  coin    was 
thrown  out  for  votes  in  1896  seemed  to 
have  i)ariially  awakened  a  few  voters  t  j 
the  commercialism  of  the  party  of    the 
tiusts,  and  to  avoid    any  vulgar  stories 
being     s.uread     broadcast     during   this 
campaign  the  order  went  out  to  the  Re- 
j  iiublican  press  to  bemoan  the  stinginess 
'  .  f  the  people  in  the  gotxl  year  1900  and  to 
set  up  a  howl  that  not  a  cent  could  be 
I  gotten  out  of  the  tiusts  and  big  corpora- 
i  tions, -and  that  the  party  of  Elkins  and 
I  Piatt  was  on  the  verge  of  starvation— in 
I  direct  contrast  to  the  conditions  prevail- 
!  ing  when  Mr.  McKinley  was  counted  in. 
This  iilausible  rot  made  good  reading, 
and  it  was  rerrarked  with  satisfaction  in 
the  rural   districts   that   Hanna    was   in 
hard  luck  and  that   the  ticket  ought  to 
be  clean  and  straight  as  long  as   there 
was  no  trust  l)ribe  money  used.     Where- 
upon there  was  much  chuckling  and  cel- 
t  bration,  and  the  party  organs  took  up 
the   wail    in   good    earnest.       The     ide.i 
worked    like   a   ciiarni,   and     might     be 
working  yet  but  for  the  expose  of  a  good 
Indiana      Republican,  who      could      not 
agiee  with  Hanna,  having  been  refused 
his  share  of  the  loot. 

This  gentleman  is  known  from  Maine 
to  California  as  a  politician  and  has  al- 
ways had  a  Hnser  in  what  was  .going. 
When  he  howled  it  was  soon  learned  in 
Washington  that  there  was  cash  and  to 
burn  in  the  paity  treasury,  and  that  tiie 
hungry  cr.v  had  merely  been  sint  out  to 
f'X\\  the  bucolic  voteis.  Now  there  is  a 
general  rush  for  the  pie  counter,  and 
the  managers  are  sorry  that  they  le'. 
the  disappointed  s-reptleman  get  away 
from  them. 

The  trU'h  of  the  matter  is  that  Senator 
Hanna  will  iiave  a  far  larger  fund  this 
year  than  ever  before.  Where  he  ex- 
pended oidy  $."). 000.000  four  jears  ago  he 
will  have  :?1 5,000.000  to  distribute  this  fall, 
and  nothing  that  can  be  ;iurcha.sed  will 
be  allowed  outside  the  imperialistic  fold. 
Ttie  figures  came  from  those  who  are  on 
the  inside  and  who  will  have  a  hand  in 
the  accounts.  It  is  intended  to  turn 
whole  states  into  bribe  ceaters,  but  Mc- 
Kinley must  have  another  term. 

Senator  Hanna  will  arrive  in  Xow  York 
this  afternoon,  and  will  at  once  oiganize 
the  special  trust-bleedin.g  coninwttee,  of 
which  Hon.  Cornelius  N.  Bliss  will  be 
appointed  chairman.  Immediately  after 
organization  the  first  installment  of  ih" 
subscripticm  will  be  levied  for  immediate 
use,  and  it  is  known  that  tCnis  will  at 
least  amount  to  $.'^.000,000.  A  promise  of 
$'20,000,000  has  been  secured  in  case 
such  an  amount  should  be  deemed  neces- 
sary. 

The  whole  matter  will  be  run  on  a 
strict  business  basis,  and  there  will  i;o 
none  of  tlie  sentiment  indulged  in  thrxt 
made  .si  much  trouble  last  time.  Hooks 
will  be  kept  and  shown  to  the  magnates 
who  are  forced  to  give  up  to  the  cause  of 
the  Canton-San  Juan  couple,  and  a  clear 
e.xhibit  will  be  ready  at  any  time.  Tii? 
sensation  caused  by  Senat<ir  Pettigrew 
on  the  floor  of  the  upper  body  last  June, 
when  he  openly  stated  that  Chai  1 -s 
Chamo  hi.d  declared  himself  robbed  by 
the  Republican  campaign  committee,  an  1 
3400,000  forced  from  him  and  looted,  will 
not  again  be  repeated. 

All  this  is  what  has  caused  the  aforc- 
mentionec  gentleman  from  Indiana  to 
kick  over  tC"ie  traces  and  to  howl  for  loit. 
In  a  statement  as  to  "where  the  money 
went  in  1896,"  he  openly  declares  thai  i^s 
much  went  'nt  ■  t^.e  private  nockets  if 
those  running  the  campaign  as  was  ex- 
ner  ■  d  in  bribes.  Out  of  a  cool  milli..i 
used  in  Indiana,  he  received  $120,000  in  a 
lumn.  He  was  f  irced  to  expend  $40,000 
..f  this,  and  placed  $SO,000  in  the  bank. 
He  wanted  another  chance  of  this  kind 
this  year. 

In  any  event  no  man  should  lay  awaice 
nigtits  bemoaning  the  sad  lot  of  the  poor 
starving  Republican  campaign  commit- 
tee, and  no  tears  are  expected.  All  of 
which  is  another  warning  not  to  be- 
lieve all  vni  see  in  in  administration 
paper.

Mass  Mine  Butler  Lode  Show- 
ing Well-Work  at  the 
Wyandotte. 

iluuijhtun — The  report  eonui;  from 
I  he  Mass  mine  that  the  hanging  wall 
of  the  Butler  lode  in  the  sixth  level 
crosscut  has  been  reached.  At  thi.s 
!>oint  the  lode  is  twelve  feet  wide,  and 
well  charged  with  the  red  metal. 

In  putting  a  tunnel  through  this  lode 
at  that  point— that  is,  removing  the 
'ock  from  the  .«pace  seven  feet  high  by 
live  feet  wide  acros.s  the  lode — it  pro- 
'iucd  half  u  ton  of  barrel  copper  and 
iwenty  tons  of  stamp  rock  which  will 
'  un  bettei-  than  I  per  cent.  The  lode 
i'loks  exceedingly  well  at  this  point. 
This  crosscut  in  the  sxth  leveli  has 
been  put  through  for  the  purpose  of 
making  a  connection  with  the  old  work- 
ings of  the  Butler  lode.  These  old 
workings  have  been  pumped  out  and  a 
lonnection  will  be  made  at  the  deepest 
I'oint  with  this  cros.scut,  thus  connect- 
ing a  large  amount  of  new  territory 
uith  the  Ridge  shaft,  which  has  been 
t  (mnected  with  this  sixth   level. 

Plans  are  beving  got  ready  for  the 
'•rection  of  a  new  shaft  and  rockhotise 
It  the  Ridge  shaft,  which  will  be  con- 
-tructed  of  wood,  and  active  v.ork  ha^^ 
I'een  begun  on  the  erection  of  the  large 
liolst  and  compressor  plants. 

As  it  is  estimated  that  sufficient  de- 
velopment work  has  already  been  done 
in  the  Mass  mine  to  enable  the  com- 
pany to  produce  a  sufficient  amount  of 
stamp  rock,  when  the  new  machinery  is 
installed,  to  supply  a  one-head  stamp 


mill,  the  development  work  under- 
ground will  be  curtailed,  and  the  men 
u.sed  on  the  surface  in  constructing 
the  .shaft  house  and  building  the  ma- 
chinery. 

The  newly  discovered  lode  at  the 
Wyandot  is  being  ojiened  up  as  rapidly 
as  possible  with  the  appliances  at  hand. 
The  lode  lies  about  .six  feet  down  be- 
neath a  layer  of  sand  and  has  a  good 
showing  of  copper.  There  is  also  quite 
a  vein  ttf  epidole.  A  force  of  men  has 
been  .set  at  work  opening  up  the  lode 
about  -00  feet  from  th  point  of  dis- 
covery. Trenching  has  been  com- 
menced. It  is  propos(>d  also  to  follow 
the  same  plan  at  a  point  squally  distant 
in  the  othere  direction  from  the  origi- 
nal opening.  In  the  deepest  place  the 
workings  are  down  about  forty  feet  on 
the  find.  It  is  claimed  that  prospects 
are  very  good  for  the  future. 


Menominee — All  German  societies  on 
the  Menominee  river  will  join  in  grand 
clebration  at  Menominee  Aug.  19.  It 
will  be  the  first  annual  event  of  the  kind 
and   thou.sands  of  visitors  are  expected.

OAMES  COME  HERE. 

Next  Olympic    Games    to  Ba  at 
Franklinflald. 

Philadelphia.  July  ::..— Arrangements 
have  been  practically  completed  for  bring- 
ing the  Olymi>4c  games  emblematic  of  the 
worlds  champio  iship,  to  Franklintleld,  the 
university  of  Pennsylvania's  athletic 
grounds,  in  the  Mimmer  of  UWl. 

AVhen  plans  fi>r  reviving  these  ancient 
sports  were  decided  upon,  it  was  agreed 
to  hold  the  lirst  series  at  Athens,  in  the  old 
arena  where  the  Greeks  had  contested  for 
atliU'tic  .suprem;  c.\'  ceinories  ago.  It  was 
here  in  Ksf*»>  thai  Princeton  and  Harvard 
surprised  the  European  world  by  the 
prowess  of  Ameitcan  athletes  on  track  and 
field. 

It  was  agreed  by  the  committee  In  charge 
that  the  sports  should  -be  held  ever.v  four 
.vear.s,  that  they  should  go  to  Paris  in  IHiJO, 
that  England  should  hav«;  them  in  I'.WM.  and 
in  four  years,  oi-  in  IJKiS  they  should  come 
to  America. 

In  some  little  e  irresjiondenco  the  univer- 
sity of  Pennsylvania  athletic  authorities 
had  with  the  proniotrTs  of  sports  in  Kni;- 
land,  beftjre  Peimsylvaiila's  team  started 
abroad  this  year,  it  was  leiirne<l  that  the 
Hiitishers  were  not  particularl.v  desirous 
of  having  the  games  in  lWi4  and  with  a  lit- 
tle diplomacy  the.v  were  induced  to  giv 
way  to  America  For  this  reason,  Frank 
Ellis,  a  graduate  of  the  University  of 
Pennsylvania  and  former  chairman  of  the 
track  committee,  was  sent  abroad  with  the 
team  to  endeavor  to  secure  the  gamps  ti^r 
Frankllnfleld.  and  advices  from  htm  abroad 
indicate  that  he  has  been  successful  in  his 
mis.sion.

"Yes,"  said  Superintendent  Hickman, 
who  is  in  cliarge  of  tlie  installation  of 
the  machinery  at  the  old  car  works, 
"the  new  machinery  of  the  rolling  mill 
is  practically  all  in  place  and  the  mill 
is  ready  to  start  up  when  the  orders 
come  to  do  so.  Of  course  there  are 
many  little  things  that  will  have  to  be 
done  after  it  is  in  operaton,  but  the 
mill  itself  is  practically  ready  for  busi- 
ness. As  to  when  it  ill  start  up,  I 
have  no  information  to  give." 

A  transformation  scene  has  truly  been 
worked  under  Mr.  Hickman's  super- 
vision at  the  old  car  works,  now  to  be 
operated  by  its  new  owner,  John  E. 
Searles.  After  standing  idle  for  years 
the  rolling  mill  has  been  equipped  with 
new  machinery  and  ovens  and  trans- 
formed into  a  first  class  rolling  mill 
that,  when  it  starts,  will  give  employ- 
ment to  considerable  labor.  Nothing 
has  been  done  thus  far  at  the  old  steel 
plant  at  West  Superior,  controlled  by 
the  same  interests,  although  it  was 
understood  that  the  big  plant  was  also 
to  be  refitted  and  operated  after  many 
years  of  idleness.

HEARS  FROM  NOME. 
William  B.  Getchell  recently  received 
a  letter  from  his  brother  who  landed  at 
Cape  Nome,  Alaska,  July  1st.  The 
letter  was  brief  and  did  not  speak  of  the 
reported  horrors  there.  Nome,  Mr. 
Getchell  says,  is  overcrowded,  but  the 
crowds  are  lapldly  getting  away.  He 
says  that  the  beach  is  about  worked  out, 
but  that  some  of  the  creeks  are  rich, 
the  water  being  very  low  in  some  of 
them.  He  reports  rents  high  for  busi- 
ness places,  but  other  things  compara- 
tively cheap.  Meals  cost  from  oO"  cents 
up.  There  is  a  great  deal  of  idle  ma- 
chinery there,  says  Mr.  Getchell,  that 
can  now  be  bought  very  cheap.  It 
took  about  fifteen  days  for  the  letter  to 
reach  Duluth  from  Nome.

CROP  OF  SUN  SPOTS. 

Ltrp  Numbtr   Prsdicted   for  thi 
N«xt  Fivi  Ytars. 

It  is  lielit'ved  from  evidence  ntnv  seen 
in  the  sun.  that  n  period  of  great  activ- 
ity is  in  progress  there,  and  that  the 
effects  of  this  imineasurabie  force  will 
Im»  seen  during  the  ii'^xt  five  years  in 
what  is  known  as  "sun  spot.<«."  These 
«un  spots  are  supposed  to  lit'  great  .solar 
volcanoes  or  <ilhei-  disturbances  of  the 
sun"s  surface  in  some  visible  way.  The 
spots  ran  be  .«een  easily  by  observers 
during   the   years   up   to  190."i.    whr-n   the

maximum  will  have  been  reached.  These 
supposed  cavities  sometimes  go  to  a 
v.i.Uh  of  about  20.000  miles  and  then 
break  up  into  separate  spots  or  cavities, 
sometimes  separating  at  the  rate  of 
IW  miles  an  hour,  says  the  Boston  Daily 
Advertiser. 

The  energy  sent  out  by  the  same  force 
that  causes  these  sun  spots  must  be 
enormous.  There  are  some  reasons  for 
believing  that  before  the  spots  them- 
selves make  their  appearance  to  the 
sight  the  energy  is  at  work  and  is 
radiated  from  the  sun  to  the  planets 
of  this  system.  At  all  events,  the  sun- 
spot  periods  are  usually  notable  on  the 
earth  for  peculiar  majiifestations  of 
electrical  energy.  The  electric  storms 
that  have  been  seen  in  New  England 
lat»-ly  are  due,  in  some  degree,  to  the 
solar  energy  and  the  electricity  sent 
to  the  earth  as  a  result.  Such,  at  least, 
is  a  widely  received  scientific  theory. 

It  may  he  that  the  sun  spots  of  the 
t^nergy  of  which  they  are  merely  the 
resuit  work  in  .some  fashion  that  cannot 
t.e  S'»  easily  traced.  During  the  past 
three  years,  when  the  sun's  energies 
have  been  at  work,  strange  things  have 
hai)pened  in  the  world.  Is  it  merely  a 
•  oincidence?  If  .«o.  it  is  at  least  worth 
noii«  e  that  coincidences  of  this  kind  are 
not  rare  if  one  takes  the  trouble  to  look 
up  the  story  of  the  civilized  world  in 
the  few  years  preceding  each  perirxl  of 
oiul>reak  of  sun  spots,  say,  in  the  past 
fifty  years. 

To  trace  back  the  periods,  reckoning 
eleven  years  as  the  cycle,  the  beginning 
of  sun-spot  outbreaks  would  be  reckoned 
in  1889,  1878,  1867  and  18.56  in  such  a 
count.  These  dates  are  not  exact  be- 
cause the  period  of  duration  is  not  ex- 
actly measurable  in  units  of  years.  Still 
it  is  surely  worth  some  notice  that  he- 
fore  the  period  of  1856  tl.ere  came  the 
desperate  outbreak  of  the  war  in  the 
Crimea:  that  before  the  period  of  1867 
the  Fnlted  States  was  ravaged  by  civil 
war  to  an  extent  hardly  ever  recorded 
'  in  the  history  of  any  country,  and  that 


the  great  tragedy  of  IJrc'oln's  death  had 
been  recorded:  that  pnteding  the  sun- 
spot  period  of  1878  there  came  the  har- 
rowing experienc»>s  of  France,  culminat- 
ing in  the  communist  riots,  and  the 
Russi  in-Turkish  war;  that  before  1SS9 
came  the  Roumt^lian  revolution,  the 
Nihilist  outbreak  in  Russia,  and  the  war 
with  the  Afghans,  and  that  before  1!)00 
came  the  war  with  Spain,  the  Jameson 
raid,  and  the  consequent  war  between 
the  Boers  and  the  British. 

It  is  also  interesting  to  note  how 
linancial  movements  of  importance  have 
accompanied  the  manifestation  of  sun 
spots  in  the  past  half  century.  Each 
jieriod  has  been  accompanied  by  great 
business  booms  and  the  climax  and  dis- 
appearance of  the  sun  spots  in  clo.se 
proximity  to  a  linancial  panic,  except 
in  1861,  when  the  immense  preparations 
for  war  in  the  I'nited  States  rather 
caused  better  business.  Since  that 
date,  however,  the  years  187:}.  1884  and 
189.T  were  years  of  widespread  financial 
and  industrial  depression.  This  coinci- 
dence is  also  striking  enough  to  be 
noted.  Of  course,  such  coin<  idences  do 
not  prove  that  the  energy  or  the  reac- 
tion in  the  sun  causes  such  results  on 
the  earth;  but  it  is  at  least  remarkable 
that  the  sun's  energy  and  the  human 
energy  on  the  earth  should  have  run  in 
cycles  so  closely  alike.

MUNICIPAL  PROGRESS. 

The  large  proportion  of  our  population 
which  live  in  urban  communities  makes  it 
Tiecessarv  that  if  our  political  developmenL 
is  to  be  satisfactory,  urban  conditions 
must  be  very  much  improved.  What  has 
I. fen  said  must  not  be  understood  as  be- 
littling the  progress  which  hao  already 
been  made  In  tlie  improvement  «jf  urban 
conditions.  No  greater  mistake  can  be 
made  than  to  exaggerate  the  evil  condi- 
tions which  exist  in  American  cities.  The 
progress  than  has  already  been  made  is 
very  great,  says  the  international  Month- 
ly- „  -^ 

Fifty  years  ago  efficient  police  protoc 
tlon  was  almost  unknown.  Few,  if  any. 
of  our  cities  had  ample  supplies  of  portable 
water.  No  effective  provision  was  made 
for  cleaning  the  streets,  or  for  taking 
away  the  debris  occasioned  by  the  exigen- 
cies of  urban  life.  The  pavements  of  our 
cities  were  generally  wretched  in  charac- 
tar,  and  the  means  of  transportation  of- 
fered to  the  urban  population  was  alto- 
gether Inadequate. 

Much  of  the  improvement  that  has  been 
made  in  these  respects  within  tiie  last 
half  century  has  been  due,  i)f  cour.se.  to 
the  development  of  scientilic  methods;  but 
the  improvement  which  has  actually  taken 
place  would  not  have  been  possible  liad 
our  cltv  governments  been  as  bad  as  they 
have    somellmes    been    represented.

The  Shaker  Medicine  Co. 

For  nearly  150  years  the  society  or 
community  of  Shakers  has  been  in  ex- 
istence, the  order  being  founded  in  1747 
at  Manchester,  England.  In  previous 
issues  of  The  Herald  something  has 
been  told  of  the  methods,  manners  and 
customs  of  this  peculiar  sect.  While 
it  is  not  the  purpose  of  this  article  to 
<  nter  into  any  further  discussion  of  the 
Shakers  than  to  call  attention  to  the 
Representatives  of  the  body  now  in 
Duluth  the  date  of  th  ?  founding  of  the 
order  is  given  as  one  o'  the  many  proofs 
extant  that  all  good  things  endure.  For 
the  past  five  weeks  tie  Shaker  doctor 
and  his  big  troup  of  ?ntertainers  have 
been  in  Duluth  dispenf  ing  certain  medi- 
cines and  specific  compounds  manufac- 
tured by  these  people.  That  these  med- 
icines and  compound?  are  seemingly 
all  that  is  claimed  foi  them,  the  repu- 
tation and  honesty,  the  skill  and  broad 
knowledge  that  are  possessed  by  the 
men  who  make  them,  ought  to  prove, 
but  the  efficacy  of  these  medicines  is 
not  based  on  claims  alone,  and  at  the 
request  of  the  Shaker  doctor  and,  with- 
out any  suggestion  whatever  from  him 
as  to  what  people  see,  a  reporter  yes- 
terday made  some  inquiry  among  the 
people  of  Duluth  as  to  what  was 
thought  of  the  Shaker  medicine  people 
and  their  remedies.  In  no  instance  was 
there  anything  but  praise  heard  of  men 
or  medicines.  The  Shaker  doctor  and 
his  associates  have  made  a  reputation 
for  high-minded,  hnonorable,  skillful 
and  courteous  treatment  of  everyone 
with  whom  they  have  come  in  contact. 
They  have  shown  themselves  to  be  edu- 
cated, practical  and  skillful  advisers 
and  professional  men.  Of  their  reme- 
dies they  have  done  all  that  has  been 
claimed  for  them  and  in  some  instances 
a  great  deal  more.  flome  people  criti- 
cized the  methods  u:?ed  to  place  the 
remedies  on  the  market,  denouncing 
the  vendors  thereof  as  fakirs,  but  the 
answer  to  that  would  probably  be  that 
the  Shakers,  by  experience,  deem  it  the 
best  method  to  reach  the  masses  and  do 
the  most  good  in  the  needed  places. 
The  ci^ticism  seems  childish  in  the 
benefits  given :  that  these  men  are 
gentlemen  in  their  bearing  and  skillful 
an^  are  doing  much  good  all  over  this 
broad  land,  is  beyond  question,  and  so 
far  as  Duluth  is  concerned,  the  Shaker 
Medicine  company,  v;ith  its  corps  of 
entertainers  and  their  medicines  that 
cure  or  greatly  help  the  afflicted,  will 
always  be  welcome.

BAHLE  WAS 

TERRIFIC 

Last  Assault  By  the  Rebels 

at   Panama    Was    a 

Desperate  Onem 


Bodies  Piled  Up  Along  the 
Road  For  Half    a 

Mile. 


New  York.  July  27.— A  dispatch  to  the 
Herald  from  Panama  sa\  A  treaty  of 
peace  between  the  goveinni'-nt  and  the 
revolutionists  has  be^n  signed.  This 
aetton  followed  directly  after  the  most 
d-  •••  battle  of  the  entire  revolution. 

In  1   the  losses  on  b<ith  sides  wtie 

very  heavy. 

Owing  to  some  misunderstanding  ■•' 
the  terms  uf  the  armistice  bnmght  ab<>ut 
by  the  American.  English  and  Frencn 
lis,  the  insurgents  suddenly  re- 
.1  their  attacks  upon  the  suburbs 
of  Panama.  The  fighting  lasted  eleven 
hours,  with  the  exception  of  only  a  few 
minutes"  interval,  and  was  very  heavy 
from  start  to  finish.  The  rebel  troops 
made  charge  after  charge  upon  the 
trenches  of  the  govt  rnment  force.s,  push- 
ing forward  with  remarkable  bravery 
and  with  a  recklessness  approaching 
clcsely  lo  madness.  • 

Every  assault  was  repulsed  with  a 
terrible  liss  of  life,  but  the  rebels  were 
undaunted,  and  with  extraordinary 
courage  and  renewed  vigor  repeated  the 
attacks  again  and  again. 

These  desperate  assaults  were  kept  lU' 
all  night  long,  and  were  met  with  equally 
by    Tl  •     rfgulars.      In 
..      -  .:   -iichments  dtfended  by  a 

detachment  composed  almost  entirely  cf  I 
young  men  fcom  this  city,  nearly  every 
one  of  th^  iVf-  n.1  'r>  was  killed  or  badly 
wounded 

It  was  6  oclock  Thursday  mornins 
when  the  revolutionists  were  finally  cum- 
prlled  t"  give  up  their  attacks  and  forcf  d 
to  retreat  to  the  positions  they  held 
when  the  armistice  was  declared. 

The  tide  of  battle  was  turned  against 
them  by  the  arrival  on  an  express  train 
from  Colon  of  800  freah  troops  to  rein- 
force the  government.  They  jtave  iht 
regulars  the  advantage,  and  the  rebel* 
retired  after  eleven  hours  of  such  fierce 
fighting  as  they  never  saw  before. 
The  appearance  of  the  h  round 

after  the  cessation  of  hosii -      >•    '> 

better  imagined  than  aeacribed. 

Dead  and  dying  men  were  lying  a. I 
iiUnig  the  Caledonia  road,  beyond  th" 
railroad  bridge  for  balf  a  mile,  som.- 
itlered  a  few  feet  apart  an  1 
:t:n  in  heaps,  packed  closely  i<<- 
gt-iher.  How  niftny  were  killed  during 
the  night  is  not  yet  known,  but  the 
number  will  reach  into  the  hundreils. 
The  exact  loss  may  never  be  known,  for 
many  f  the  wounded  men  crawled  into 
uut-of-the-way  thickets,  and  th^se  who 
died  in  the  bushes  may  not  all  lie  found. 
Ijieing  r- ■      '      =tmply  as  "missing." 

As  'U'  .  ~  possible  the  lietl  Cro.-^" 
corps,  aided  by  the  ambulance  corps  of 
the  British  cruiser  Leander,  began  gath- 
iring  ui>  and  attending  to  thf  wounded.

Sailors  from  the  Leander  were  als.i 
sent  out  to  pick  up  the  dead.  Cartload 
after  cartload  of  corpses  were  gathered 
together  and  cremated 

Fnder  the  terms  of  tht'  uvaiy  tin-  sur- 
render of  the  insurgent.-'  is  complete. 
They  agree  to  deliver  up  all  arms,  am- 
niunition  and  ships  in  their  possession. 
Til'-  governor  grants  full  amnesty  to  a'l 
the  revolutionists,  and  the  officers  are 
permitted  to  retain  their  swords.  For- 
•  i.^ners  who  may  have  fought  in  the  in- 
surgents' ranks  are  to  be  allowed  to  rf.- 
turn  to  their  homes. 

All  political  pris»:mer3  held  in  Panama 
have  been  released.  Blxcitement  in  the 
city  is  already  gradually  subsiding,  and 
there  is  general  rejoicing  that  the  fight- 
ing has  ended  without  the  threatened 
bombardment  of  Panama.

MIXED  BUT  REASSURING. 

How  tho  Britishers  Regard  News 
From  South  Africa. 

New  York,  July  27.— .\  dispatch  to  the 
Tribune  from  London  says:  South  African 
news,  while  confused,  is  reassuring  from 
the  British  point  of  view.  Lord  Roberts 
has  continued  his  advance  to  Balmoral, 
where  Gen.  Itotha  established  his  head- 
quarters for  many  weeks.  The  Boers 
were  in  full  retreat  eastward  and  Gens. 
French  and  Hutton  were  driving  the  com- 
mandoes before  them  on  each  tlank  of  the 
railway.  •  , 

Lord  Roberts  has  clearly  set  another  oo- 
jecllve  point  before  his  army  and  is  aim- 
ing to  drive  President  Kruger  and  Gt-n. 
Botha  from  tiie  railway  into  Lydenburg 
district,  where  thev  can  be  starve.]  out  at 
leisure  when  the  railway  communications 
with  Delagoa  bay  are  broken  oft. 

GETHSBURG  IMPROVEMENT. 

Extension  of  Confederate  Avenue  on 
the  Battle  Field. 

Gettysburg.  Pa.,  July  27.— An  addition 
of  two  miles  will  ijhortiy  be  made  to  the 
fine  avenues  on  the  Gettysburg  battle- 
field. The  new  road  will  complete 
what  is  known  as  the  Confederate  av- 
enue, and  will  start  a  short  distance 
west  of  the  theological  seminary,  at 
the  end  of  the  short  s^trip  built  several 
Years  ago.  and  will  run  west  of  south  a 
distance  of  two  miles  along  the  top  of 
the  ridge  to  the  other  uncompleted  end 
of  the  Confederate  av.Tiue. 

The  avenue  will  fnll"w  the  Confed- 
erate artilleiy  line,  where,  during  the 
battle,  o<)0  guns  engaged  the  TTnion  ar- 
tillery preceding  Pickett's  memorable 
charge.  Scattered  along  the  avenue 
will  be  eighty  guns,  which  were  u.sed 
during  the  Civil  war  and  which  will  now 
mark  the  sites  of  the  Confederate  bat- 
teries. There  will  aKso  be  numerous 
tablets  marking  where  the  various 
corps,  divisims  and  Confederate  army 
fought.

New  York,  July  27.-^A  di.spatch  to  the 
Herald  from  Canton,  July  24,  says:  Spe- 
cial couriers  who  have  just  arrived  at 
the  yamen  of  the  viceroy  c^f  Taksu 
bring  n^ports  which,  if  true,  confirm  the 
previous  messages  asserting  that  the 
foreign  ministers  are  safe  in  Pekin.  The 
viceroy  will  tomorrow  issue  a  proclama- 
tion to  the  foreign  residents  and  consuls 
worded  as  follows: 

"1  have  the  honor  to  inform  you  that  I 
have  just  received  a  me.ssage,  dated  Uhe 
22nd  instant  at  Pekin,  saying  that  one 
of  Gen.  Yung  Lus  imperial  soldiers  ar- 
rested a  runner  with  a  message  from  the 
British  legatirm,  and  that  Yung  Tu  im- 
mediately informed  the  throne  of  the  fact 
and  ordered  the  runner  back  to  the  lega- 
tion to  inquire  after  the  health  of  the 
ministers. 

"The  British  minister  replied  that  all 
were  well,  and  hoped  for  peace  as  early 
as  possible.  On  the  following  day  a 
deputy  from  the  tsung  li  yamen  vvas  sent 
to  visit  the  legations.  He  met  all  the 
foreign  ministers.  No  one  has  been 
hurt.  It  is  believed  the  danger  is  now 
over  in  Pekin,  and  all  th«;  ministers  and 
foreigners  are  safe. 

"I  was  glad  when  I  read  this  message, 
and  hasten  to  inform  you  to  keep  you 
satisfied.  'T.VKSU." 

It  is  eminently  proijer  to  say  that  all 

that  part  of  the  proclamation  must  be 
taken  cum  grano  sails,  for  it  is  tbe  heigat 
of  filly  to  trust  Chinese  officials  im- 
plicitly. They  regard  successful  du- 
plicity as  the  highest  attiibute  a  viceroy 
can  possess. 

Many  Chinese  frankly  tteclare  that  the 
telegrams  about  the  safely  of  the  for- 
eign ministers  in  Pekin  received  by  the 
two  viceroys,  Li  Hung  ahd  Taksu.  and 
Yuan  Shi  Ivai  and  Shcng-artj.  mislead- 
ing. Some  persons  in  the  viceregal  ya- 
men at  Canton  insinuate  that  the  minis- 
ters have  died  of  hunger.  Rumors,  in- 
deed, are  as  numerous  as  they  are  con- 
flicting. Large  sums  of  money  have 
been  almost  fruitles.=iy  expended  in  try- 
ing to  confirm  previous  dispatches  con- 
cerning the  foreigners'  safety.

CLAIM  AGAINST  COLOMBIA. 

Xew  York.  July  iT.— The  Herald  today 
.■^ays:  The  I'nited  States  of  Colombia  will 
have  shortl.v  to  answer  to  Great  Britain 
and  the  I'nited  States  for  the  death  on 
May  31  at  Tumaco.  Colombia,  nf  Reginald 
Paris,  a  British  subject.  Mr.  Paris  died  a 
victim  of  the  treniment  he  suffered  at  the 
hand.<  of  Gen.  Vincene  Micolta,  in  charge 
of  the  Cc^lombian  government  forces. 
Great  Britain  will  be  asked  to  press  a

COAL  TO  RUSSIA. 
Philadelphia,  July  2T.— The  recent  pur- 
chase of  Pennsylvania  soft  coal  for  ship- 
ment to  Cronstadt  on  Russian  account 
was  followed  today  by  the  announcement 
that  the  British  steamship  Hotasu  has 
been  chartered  to  load  4000  tons  of  the 
same  cargo  for  Gutujewskv,  Russia.  It  is 
thought  probable  that  the  coal  is  intended 
for  railroad  consumption.  Russia  is  now 
suffering  from  a  coal  famine,  the  impor- 
tations from  England  and  Germany  and 
her  own  meager  supply  being  inadequate 
for  her  rapidly  growing  Industries.  More 
shipments  to  the  czar's  country  are  looked 
for.

the  Times  from  Skagway,  under  date  of 


JESrS  AS  A  PHILOSOPHER. 

The  great  need  of  tiu-  reseiit  day  is  t:!«- 
fuller  realization  of  Jesus  as  a  philosopoci 
and  the  emphasis  of  his  life-work.  0.1.  h 
in  precept  and  examjile.  as  a  scietuiiic 
rather  than  a  miraculous  basts  of  regen- 
erative ethics,  says  the  Westminster  Re- 
view. The  law  of  the  relationship  of  hu 
manity  to  the  Infinite  elaborated  in  the 
paralues  is  a-<  sound  science  as  the  Ic.-:- 
aesthetic.  though,  in  their  degree,  lui 
less  truthful  agnosticism  of  Darwin  aad 
Spencer,  and  the  philosophy  of  tiie  sermon 
on  the  mount  is  unrivalled  In  the  realm  01 
modern  iniedectuality. 

Jesus  may  have  been  a  dreamer.  He  cer- 
tainly was  a  poet,  but,  above  all.  He  was 
a  philosopher,  and  if  the  great  scienti.-ts 
of  the  ,vor!d  and  the  leading  modern  plii. 
.isophers  ar»  found  outside  the  church:-s. 
It  is  not  because  tiiey  dissent  from  tlie 
philosophy  of  Jesus,  but  rather  becniis; 
they  desire  to  maintain  the  purity  of  its 
meaning  and  the  intensity  of  ii.i  app-_j|. 
not  to  blind  faith  (mistaken  by  many  tor 
religion!,  but  to  the  rational  cxf."iitnre 
of  men.  The  doctrine  of  self-s.icriilcc  Di: 
a  means  to  tne  higher  life,  C)  m^  perfc-Lt

human  Intellect;  nor  is  it  conceivable  lli.".: 
its  force  would  be  augmented  by  the  vio- 
lation of  the  law  which  proves  its  nect-f- 
sity.  Salvation  therefore  becomes  a  mat- 
ter", not  of  the  Intervention  of  supernatu- 
ralism.  rendering  a  man  a  helpless  play- 
thing in  the  hands  of  God  with  partia,.- 
ties.  and  wicked  enough  to  bring  men  into 
the  world  for  the  sardonic  purpcse  of 
damning  them,  but  a  science,  a  natural 
evolution,  attainable  at  will  by  the  effons 
of  the  moral  faculties  of  mankind.  Man. 
In  fact,  according  to  the  phdosophy  cf 
Jesus,  is  practically  his  own  savior;  the 
attainment  of  his  hlpnest  ideal  is  wii.Mn 
his  reach  and  the  'kingdom  of  heaven" 
is  at  his  nand. 

It  is  doubtful  whether  the  purely  sclei- 
tific  nature  of  the  philosophy  of  Jesus  was 
ever  understood  by  His  contemporarie.s 
and  His  immediate  followers  as  it  Is  be- 
ginning to  be  understood  today.  The  great 
teacher  was  so  far  ahead  cf  His  day  that 
it  has  taken  almost  two  thousand  years 
for  us  to  overtake  Him  in  the  Intellectual 
race,  but  modern  scientific  research,  far 
from  damaging  the  philosophy  of  Jesus.

k  PLOT  IS  SCENTED. 

rrickiry  Fiarsd  In  Sheng*s  Pro 
posai  Regarding  Ministers. 

New  York.  July  27.— .\  dispatch  to  the 
Herald  from  Shanghai  says:  The  pro- 
posal made  by  the  Chinese  government 
to  the  American  consul  throuh  Taotai 
Sheng.  that  hostilities  against  the  Chi- 
nese should  cease  upon  condition  that 
the  foreign  ministers  were  sent  under 
-scort  to  Tien  Tsin,  appears  to  be  part 
of  a  deep  laid  plan  to  conceal  the  date 
of  the  massacre  and  the  duplicity  of  the 
officials,  who  being  in  possession  of  the 
news,  supjiressed  it. 

The  story  will  be  that  the  ministers 
ail  left  Pekin  under  a  strong  escort. 
but  were  set  upon  by  o  mcdj  of  Boxers. 
It  will  be  announced  that  although  the 
Chinese  soldiers  fought  bravely  they 
were  overcome  and  all  were  massacred. 

In  an  interview  which  he  has  had 
with  the  American  consul  here.  Li  Hung 
Chang  solemnly  declared  that  the  min- 
oister.^  in  Pekin  were  all  safe.  He  de- 
nied the  statement  that  Kang  Yi  had 
been  appointed  viceroy  at  Canton. 

The  viceroy  of  Nankin  Lui  Kun  Yi,  is 
himself  ignorant  whether  the  ministers 
are  alive  or  dead. 

Liu  Kun  Yi  is  determined  to  preserve 
order  in  his  provinces,  but  if  any  rea- 
sonable fear  becomes  current  of  the 
partition  of  China  I'eing  intended  or  of 
personal  injury  to  the  empress  dowager 
being  threatened,  the  whole  of  central 
China  will  explode.  The  situation  is, 
indeed,   very  precarious. 

The  new  expedition  for  Pekin  is  ex- 
pected to  leave  Tien  Tsin  inside  of  a 
fortnight. 

Chinese  troops  have  retreated  from 
the  native  city  of  Tien  Tsin  and  are 
concentrating  at  Yaung  Tun.  on  the 
railway  line  to  Pekin,  with  a  view  to 
opposing  the  advance  of  the  allies. 

NEWS  OF  MISSIONARIES. 

Those  In  Hinghua  and  the  Yicinily 
Are  Safe. 

New  York.  July  2:.-The  Rev.  Dr.  J.  F. 
Dodd,  of  the  Alethodist  Episcopal  Mis- 
sionary society,  yesterday  received  tlie 
following  cable  from  Sharp  Peak: 

"Hinghua  quiet.  Ladies,  children.  Sharp 
Peak." 

This  message  was  ^ent  by  the  Rev.  A*'. 
N.  H.  Brewster,  superintendent  of  the 
mission  at  Hinghua.  Hinghua  is  some  dis- 
tance southwest  of  Che  Foo.  and  Sharp 
Peak  is  still  further  south.  Sharp  Peali 
is  said  to  be  a  summer  resort. 

It  is  inferred  from  the  message  that  Mr. 
Brewster  had  gone  over  there  to  looK 
after  the  women  and  children,  but  that 
the  men  were  still  at  Hinghua,  where 
there   was   no    danger. 

Mr.  Brewster  was  recently  Instructed  by 
cable  10  jaMe  the  present  location  of  the 
missionaries.  There  are  only  half  a 
dozen  missionaries  located  at  Hinghua. 

APPEALS  TO  ENBUND. 

Kwang  Su  Asks  Britain  to  Smooth 
Things  Out. 

London,  July  27.— Last  Saturday  the 
Chinese  minister.  Sir  Chih  Chen  Lo 
Funk  Luh,  handed  the  foreign  office  a 
long  telegram  purporting  to  come  from 
Emperor  Kwang  Su,  soliciting  Great 
Britain's  good  offices  to  bring  about 
peace  on  terms  similar  to  the  appeals 
addressed  to  President  McKinley  and 
President  Loubet.  Thus  far  the  gov- 
ernment has  not  replied  and  it  is  felt 
that  in  the  present  anomalous  circum- 
stances the  precise  origin  of  the  tele- 
gram  is  doubtfuL

Paris.  July  27. — II  ha.s  bet-n  po-^itively 
chlUs'  here  when  you  c«»nslder  thai  Hu' 
GodUe.ss  of  Summer  Ls  accustomed  to 
ilemand  her  homage  of  discomfort  and 
discontent.  Fans  have  stepped  into 
the  background,  except  as  coijuettish 
tovs.  and  the  parasol  has  been  carried 
as  a  picturesque  addition  to  the 
toilette.  Cool  breezes  have  blown  from 
the  Seine,  and  the  Eiffel  tower,  with 
its  pretty  balconies,  has  been  quite 
the  coolest  spot  this  side  of  Norway, 
where,  by  the  way,  many  of  the  fash- 
ionable people  have  gone  for  the 
month. 

Incired  to  fresh  effort  by  tlie  woatiii-'r 
and  the  throngs  of  well-attired  fojk 
thf  rulers  of  fashion  have  gone  on  de- 
vising and  Inventing,  scheming  ani 
planning,  until  they  have  actually 
brought  forth  in  milsuram.^r  rnodts 
and  fancies,  fadd  and  realities  that  are 
nev  anc:  prettv  and  .«ome  of  ihem  very 
commendable. 

Perhaps  l^e  greattst  change  is  in  ;tie 
.«teeves  which  have  been  transformed  to 
give  a  renewed  lease  of  life  to  the  bolero 
and  the  Eton. 

Picturesque  "Frondeuse"  sleeves  are 
made  tn  reach  above  the  elbow,  and  are 
turned  up  with  a  jaunty  rever.  whence 
comes  a  "puff"  of  lace  to  imi»rison  the 
elbow,  and  a  Jabot  or  frill  uf  lace,  nar- 
row at  tile  bend  of  the  elbow  and  length- 
ening gradually  into  a  deep  frill.  This 
is  the  smartest  sleeve  of  all.  It  is  quite 
feasible  tiv  out -door  wear  with  a  loai; 


with  chenille,  were  finished  off  with 
garters  of  black  velvet  ribbon.  This  was 
a  useful  little  garment,  destined  to  b<= 
worn  with  sleeveless  blouses  of  lace  or 
chiffon. 

Mrs.  Ambassador  Porter  recently  wore 
One  which  could  not  be  equalled  for 
smart nes.s.  it  was  «>f  black  glace  silk, 
tucked  front  and  back,  the  most  bril- 
liant white  satin  lining  gleaming  at 
the  wrists,  tlie  colla  and  at  the 
lapels,  which  were  overlaid  with  guipure 
lace. 

White  cloth  is  immensely  worn,  so  are 
fancy  silks.  The  general  tendency  i.s 
towards  the  large  cape  collars  of  1830. 
They  are  made  in  white  moire,  doul)le 
or  single,  in  lace,  and  in  muslin  with 
tiny  tucks  and  lace  insertiqn,  or  in  fine 
colored  silk  linen.  The  smartest  coats 
have  them  as  revers.  coming  well  over 
the  shoulders  and  fastened  with  links 
and  chains.  They  also  grace  many  of 
the  boleros,  which  are  made  of  the  rich- 
est gold  embroidered  materials.  Some  in 
very  pale  fawn  cloth  are  entirely  em- 
broidered or  finely  braided  with  silk 
cords. 

They  make  the  little  coat  of  plain  or 
fancy  silk,  satin-faced  cloth,  cachemlre 
voile,  glace  silk  or  fancy  sateen.  There 
are  so  many  new  materials  from  which 
to  choose:  after  all  It  is  the  cut,  not  the 
cloth,  that  makes  the  coat. 

FOR  THE  NECK. 

L^t  not  your  heart  be  troubled  if  neck 
garniture  seem  expensive,  and  if  they 
are  frail  and  can  be  worn  but  a  dav. 
Many  are  the  devices  for  prolonging  their 


FOR  SUMM  ER  HOPS.

Is  of  delicate  moiisseline  de  soie  mo'^nti'd

ruffled  suede  glove,  but  there  are  endless 
other  varieties. 

THE  NEW  SLEEVE. 

The  most  popular,  perhaps,  will  be  the 
plain  sleeve  cut  away  a  good  deal  below 
the  elbow,  and  finished  with  a  puff  and 
flounce  of  tran.sparent  lace.  The  beil 
sleeve  is  being  successfully  revived.  It 
is  made  plain  or  finely  kilted,  and  opens 
On  an  under-sleeve  of  white  muslin  or 
piece  lace,  gathered  into  a  wristlet  or 
band  of  black  velvet.  Sleeves  tuck-^d 
lengthwise  have  the  fulness  escaping  at 
the  elbow  into  a  puff,  which  g<ies  back 
into  its  former  tucked  condition  as  far 
as  the  wrist,  where  it  spreads  into  the 
funnel-shaaed  cuff.  The  great  art  in 
the  very  long  sleeves  is  to  make  them  as 
close-fitting  as  a  gl>ve  at  the  wrist, 
allowing  the  "funnel"  to  spread  out  like 
the  petals  of  a  lily  round  the  hand 
Itself. 

The  "mitaine"  sleeve  fits  the  arm 
closely,  and  comes  over  the  hand  to 
form  a  lace  mitten.  This  sleeve  is  often 
made  to  droop  at  the  shoulder,  showing 
the  top  of  the  arm. 

In  tea  gowns,  fanciful  sleeves  have 
full  scope:  three  .soft  puffs  and  a  frill  of 
lace,  or  a  ruffled  elbow  sleeve  with  a 
deeo  faU  of  lace  are  much  seen.  The 
e!b.3w  sleeve,  however,  does  nat  always 
imply  a  frill  or  a  ruffle,  it  is  often  fin- 
ished off  with  a  simple  rever.  a  drapery. 
or  a  "garter"  of  black  velvet  ribbon  tied 
in  a  bow. 

We  also  have  a  sleeve  which  '-  of 
transr>arent  lace  or  pleated  silk  muslin 
from  elbow  to  wrist,  and  another,  not 
quite  so  new,  showing  a  transparent  lace 
top.  whence  the  material  is  softly  drapd. 
A  more  matronly  style  has  a  wide  bow 
of  lace  and  ribbon  tied  across  the 
elbow. 

Some  r>f  the  boleros  are  th^  smartest 
things  imaginable.  They  are  made  of 
blas-s?iaped  pieces  of  silk.  Your  cor- 
respondent has  Just  seen  one  in  black 
place  silk.  Bvery  piece  was  edged  with 
a  tiny  embroidery  of  black  chenille. 
and    the    elbow    sleeves,    embroidered 


lives,  not  the  least  of  which  is  the  ern- 
nlovment  of  wash  silks  and  wash  laces. 
These  are  combined  and  made  up  to- 
gether in  pretty  ways,  so  attractive  as  to 
be  quite  irresistible,  yet.  contrary  to  the 
general  run  of  pretty  things,  they  are 
not  so  very  frail. 

French  ingenuity,  with  fairy-like  fin- 
gers, has  taken  these  bits  of  lace  and 
silk  and  made  them  into  things  of 
beaut  v.  But  when  soiled  they  can  be 
laundered,  yes,  thrown  into  the  tub  and 
washed.  Tou  would  be  amazed  were  you 
to  see  Marie,  the  French  maid,  at  work 
ur>on  them. 

With  brown  but  shapely  fingers  she 
scrubbs  and  manipulates  them,  nounds 
and  turns  them,  squeezes  and  dips 
them,  until  they  come  forth  white  and 
beautiful  as  ever.  And  the  same  with 
the  odds  and  ends  of  wash  silks  that  are 
new  with  the  year.  Have  you  ever  heard 
of  laundering  hats?  Maybe  not,  yet 
they  do  it  this  season. 

It  is  during  the  holiday  z^erlod  that 
"chiffons"  are  so  useful  as  they  give  a 
dressy  character  to  the  plainest  garb 
when  properly  chosen.  "Chiffons"  is  a 
French  term  applied  to  the  dainty 
trifies  which  adorn,  yet  are  not  strict 
"necessaries"  of  toilette.  Yet  how  neces- 
sary they  are  to  a  woman  of  taste  with 
an  eye  to  beautifying  herself!  It  may 
be  added  that  is  "chiffons"  are  a  delight 
in  the  hands  of  the  tasteful,  they  are 
veritable  horrors  when  selected  and 
manipulated  by  the  vulgar. 

It  is  when  we  are  touring  that  "chif- 
fons" are  so  desirable.  Say  that  we  own 
a  plain  tailor  coat  and  skirt  of  royal 
blue  cloth,  well  cut,  well  made.  "Worn 
with  a  plain  sailor  hat  and  ordinary 
gingham  shirt,  with  plain  satin  tie. 
th's  is  a  severe  every-day  costume.  But 
let  the  wearer  select  a  charming  front  of 
satin,  lace  or  muslin:  let  her  don  a  smart 
neck-finish  or  lace  tie;  let  her  put  on  an 
elegant  straw  hat  of.  say,  the  shade  of 
her  en-tout-cas  and  of  her  silk  petti- 
coat, and  she  la  fit  for  almost  any  coun- 
try occasion  short  of  an  important  visit. 


a  flower  shC'W  or  a  garden  party — society 
functions  which  call  for  our  lightest  mus- 
lins, our  prettiest  silks. 

"Chiffons  •  are  horribly  dear  If  bought 
ready-made.  But  they  can  be  turned  out 
cheaply  enough  at  home,  with  a  little 
taste,  a  little  trouble,  a  few  minutes 
thought  and  some  odds  and  ends  of 
silk  and  lace.  Be  careful  though,  to 
purchase  one  to  use  as  a  pattern  at 
your  work  will  have  that  sad,  "all  but" 
appearance  which  so  often  marks  home- 
made neckwear. 

As  to  materials,  we  have  revived  cre- 
Don,  and  idealized  it  until  it  looks  like 
crei^e  de  Chine,  but  It  is  more  durable 
and  attainable  in  price;  fancy  pique 
"tolie  a  voile" — a  course  and  effective 
make  of  linen — thick-gi^ined  mohairs, 
embroidered  muslin,  colored  linen,  and 
every  variety  of  foulard,  .some  of  the 
prettiest  of  which  have  stripes  of  sheit- 
herd's  plaid,  alternating  with  fiorul 
sprays,  syots  nalxed  with  fiowers,  and 
some  loosely  wove  woolens,  known  un- 
der the  name  of  "Bure  canvas."  Wat- 
teau  linen,  hair  lines  in  every  color  of 
silk  on  khaki  ground,  zigzag  strii>e.3, 
Chinese  silk,  printed  with  fresh  floral 
designs,  others  with  spiders'  webs  and 
tiny  spots,  and  flowerlets  of  leaves  in 
black  on  everything. 

THE  RETIRED^ BUReUR. 

Tells  About  His  Mathematical  Part- 
ner, William  Gobbles. 

"I  never  had  any  patience,"  said  the  re- 
tired burglar,  relates  the  New  York  Sun, 
"with  the  men  who  leave  samples  of  their 
handwriting  behind  when  they  visit  a 
house.  "We  have  carried  off  all  we  have 
room  for  In  the  wagon;  we  will  come  for 
the  rest  next  time;'  "Madam,  we  do  not 
like  your  pie,  it  Is  too  sweet,'  and  foolish 
things  like  that.  And,  besides  being  fool- 
ish, It  takes  more  or  less  time  to  write 
these  things,  and  so  adds  by  so  many  min- 
utes to  the  length  of  lime  a  man  stays  In 
a  house,  and  thus  Increases  his  risk,  to 
say  nothing  of  the  wondertul  foniishness 
of  a  man's  deliberately  leaving  something 
that  might  some  time  be  used  to  lileniily 
him  bv.  I  don't  suppose  as  a  muttHr  of 
fact,  tluit  any  real  up-and-up  able  burglar, 
who  ever  made  a  business  of  it,  over  did 
anything  of  that  sort,  anyway,  but  1  did 
know  a  man  once,  a  real  professional  he 
was,  too,  who  once  left  some  marks  be- 
hind him  that  turned  out  later  to  his  groat 
benefit. 

"That  was  Bill  Cobbles— William  Gob- 
bles. Singular  name'.'  Curious,  and  a 
curious  man  Bill  was,  uxi.  He  had  a  great 
head  for  figures;  mathem.Ttics.  ?Ie  couUl 
do  sums  w-iih  signs  and  all  that  sort  of 
thing  Just  as  easy  as  rolling  off  a  log:  It 
came  natural  to  him.  and  he  liked  it.  Bill 
and  I  were  partners,  once,  and  time  and 
again,  when  we've  been  all  ready  and  only 
waiting  for  time  before  starting  out,  I've 
seen  Bill  set  down  with  a  stubby  pencil 
and  a  piece  of  paper  and  figure  away  on 
algebray  and  forget  all  about  business, 
and  I'd  have  to  tell  him  when  it  was  time 
to  start.  Hnppy  man.  Hill!  He  could  for- 
get his  troubles  tiguring  out  those  sums 
with  signs.  I  often  thought  I'd  learn 
algebray  myself,    but   I    never  quite  come 

"It  was  while  we  was  working  together 
that  Bill  came  across  that  thing  where  he 
left  his  mark.  It  was  in  a  boy's  room, 
that  was  i)laln  enough,  and  there  was  the 
boy  himself  in  bed.  a  youngster  of  16  or 
thereabouts,  and  a  vigorous,  wholesome- 
looking  lad  he  was.  too,  though  he  looked 
as  though  he'd  rather  sail  a  boat  or  play 
ball  than  to  'rastle  with  figtires;  but  he'd 
been  having  a  set-to  with  figures,  all  the 
same,  as  wo  presently  discovered,  or  as 
Bill  did,  bpcau.se  Bill  was  the  boss;  he  car- 
rle<l  the  lami>  'round  the  room  and  llghtln' 
on  the  table  where  the  sheets  of  paf)er 
with  the  boys  figuring  on  'em  was. 

'The  minute  Bill's  eyes  lights  on  those 
sheets  of  pai)er  he  set.«  the  lamp  down 
himself  on  the  chair  the  boy  had  been  slt- 
tin'  In.  leaving  it  right  where  the  boy  left 
It  when  he  r'ushed  It  bai-k.  I  could  see  a 
smile  on  his  face,  in  the  light  of  the  lamp. 
as  he  bent  down  over  the  papers,  and  then 
I  see  him  fishin'  in  his  i.ockot  for  that 
stubby  pencil,  and  when  he  got  that  out 
he  smiled  some  more  and  itcgan  chalking 
down  a  few  marks  on  the  papi  r  with 
crosses  and  letters  and  things  that  T  dl-ln  t 
understand.  It  didn't  take  him  long,  .and 
when  he'd  got  through  he  put  the  prncil 
back  in  his  pocket  and  picked  up  the  lamp 
and  we  got  fo  work  again. 

•Well,  we  went  through  the  house  after 
that  and  gathered  un  what  there  was 
there  and  was  worth  carrying  off  and 
went  awav  ind  never  thought  nothin.^' 
more  about  it.  or  T  never  did,  anywav.  for 
years  aftf  rwird— It  must  have  been  fifteen 
years  at  least— and  then  BUI  told  me  the 
dutcome  of  It.  ,  , 

"Bill  was  an  older  man  than  T  was  when 
we  worked  together,  and  onlv  a  few  years 
after  that  he  sort  of  practically  retired 
Oh  he  used  to  go  out  now  and  then  and 
do  some  easv  Job.  but  after  a  while  he  eot 
so  he  didn't" even  do  that;  he  was  getting 
old    that's  all.  and  kind  o"   out  of  it;  and 


for  a  long  time  Bill  had  pooty  hard  sled- 
dln'  to  gel  along  at  all;  and  then  one  day 
his  eye  happens  to  light  on  an  advertise- 
ment m  the  paper  he  took,  saying  some- 
thing like  this:  'Jimmy,  are  you  the  man 
that  did  that  problem  for  me?  If  ycu  are, 
address  so-and-so.  This  is  lo  your  advan- 
tage.' 

"Well,  now,  you  know,  among  other 
things,  old  Bill  had  instinct  or  intuition 
or  insight,  or  whatever  you  call  It.  and  he 
knew  that  that  was  from  the  boy,  and 
also  that  there  was  no  trap,  and  that  it 
meant  it  when  it  said  'This  is  your  ad- 
vantage;' and  he  went  and  saw  him,  and, 
true  enough,  it  was  the  boy;  and,  so  Bill 
said,  just  what  you'd  have  expected  him 
to  be  from  what" we  saw  of  him  when  he 
was  a  boy— a  good,  big,  hustling  man,  and 
prosperous;  but  the  curious  thing  about  it 
was  his  story. 

"As  Uill  tells  me,  the  boy  was,  when  we 
.saw  him,  getting  ready  to  go  to  some  eid- 
iege,  and  he'd  all  but  missed  it,  and  If  he'd 
ha'  missed  the  sum  In  algebray  that  he'd 
been  'rastlln'  so  with  the  night  we  .•:aw 
him— aiul  that.  Bill  tells  me,  he  never 
could  have  done  in  the  world— he'd  ha'  been 
out  of  It.  Then  along  comes  Bill,  and  does 
it  for  ftin;  and  do  vou  know,  tlie  young- 
ster, when  he  sees  ft  on  the  ^laper  in  the 
morning,  thought  he'd  done  it  himself  in 
his  sleep.  Of  course,  he  knew  about  tfie 
carrying  oft  the  things.  l»ut  the  idea  of  a 
mathematical  burglar  stopping  to  do  his 
sums  in  algebray  never  occurred  to  him, 
and  1  don't  blame  him.  But  one  day  it 
suuck  him  all  in  a  heap  that  the  man 
that  did  that  Sum  was  the  burg;  and  tlien 
he  puts  in  the  advertisement. 

"He  told  Bill  tluit  he  thought  he  ow.^d 
him  a  thousand  dollars;  that  he'd  saved 
him  a  year,  at  least,  hi  getting  into  this 
college;  that  maybe  he'd  ha'  woke  up  and 
got  in  himself  next  year,  but  not  that 
year,  anyhow,  and  he'd  prospered  fairly 
well;  and  ho  though  Bill's  rake-off  for  the 
vear  he'd  saved  him  ought  to  be  about  a 
thousand  dollars,  if  that  was  satisfactory 
to  Bill,  as  it  was  in  a  high  degree. 

"And  it  was  the  makin'  of  Bill.  He 
bought  a  blacksmith  shop  there  for  sale 
in  the  neighborhood  of  where  he  was  then 
living  and  wt  nt  to  work;  he  was  always 
a  Kood  man  with  tools,  and  he  turned  out 
the  best  burglars'  tools  of  anybody  in  his 
part  of  the  countrv.  and  everybody  went 
to  him.  So.  vou  see.  here  he  was  now.  all 
fi.xed  again;  "no  more  night  work,  but  work 
that  he  liked,  and  that  he  could  do  to  ad- 
vantage, and  that  was  profitable.  and 
lomfortablv  settled  down  for  life,  sure  of 
good  Income  as  long  as  he  could  lift  a 
hammer;  and  all  through  doing  that  little 
sum  In  algebrav  in  that  boy's  papers. 

"furious  how  things  come  about,  ain't 
il'.'     It   is.   indited.

FORBIDDEH  QUADRUPED. 

The  fiat  of  the  nation  has  gone  forth 
against  the  mongoose.  Before  congress 
adjourned  a  bill  was  passed  by  both  houses 
prohibiting  its  importation.  The  pugna- 
cious little  animal  is  henceforth  to  be 
placed  in  the  same  category  as  the  Chi- 
nese. 

The  mongoc^e  is  a  native  of  India.  It 
is  death  on  rats  and  snakes.  For  the  de- 
struction it  works  among  these  pests  it  is 
highly  prized.  But  when  It  clears  out  the 
rats  and  snakes  it  betakes  itself  to  birds 
and  egRS  and  any  sort  of  small  game  it 
can  get  hold  of.  That  Is  why  the  depart- 
ment of  agriculture  classifies  it  as  a  nox- 
ious animal.  Weighed  in  the  balance, 
awav  from  Its  native  land,  its  vices  are 
found  to  outweigh  Us  virtues,  and.  tiiere- 
fore.  H  is  to  be  kept  out  of  Uncle  Sams 
broad  domains. 

Thus  far  very  few  specimens  of  the  mon- 
goose have  been  introduced  Into  this  coun- 
try. The  edict  of  exclusion  is  based  main- 
ly on  the  experience  of  Jamaica,  says  tiie 
Baltimore  Herald.  That  Island  once  suf- 
fered from  a  plague  of  rats,  which  were 
particularly  destructive  in  the  canefiolds. 
They  were  held  resjionsible  for  an  annual 
loss  of  something  like  $r>0.0(Xl.  In  Febru- 
ary, 1ST2.  nine  individuals  of  the  mongoose, 
four  males  and  five  females,  were  Intro- 
duced from  Iiiilia. 

They  increased  with  remarkable  rapid- 
ity and  soon  spread  all  over  the  Island 
even  to  the  tops  of  >'ne  highest  moun- 
tains. They  proved  inveterate  rat  de- 
stroyers. A  decade  after  their  introduc- 
tion it  was  estimated  that  they  were  thus 
saving  the  su^ar  planters  $2'2G.CKK)  per  an- 
num.   And  tho  mongoose  was  blessed. 

Still  the  mcngoose  increased,  and  its 
murderous  habits  became  more  and  muie 
apparant  as  the  rats  diminished.  It  de- 
stroyed younit  poultry,  kids,  lambs,  pup- 
pies, kittens,  small  game,  birds  which 
nested  on  or  near  the  ground,  oRgs. 
ground  lizards,  frogs,  turtles'  eggs  and 
land  crabs.  It  was  also  known  to  eat  ripe 
bananas,  pineapples,  young  corn,  pears, 
sweet  potatoes,  cocoanuts  and  other  fruits. 
Toward  the  close  of  the  second  decade 
the  mongoose  came  to  be  regarded  as  the 
worst  pest  ever  introduced  into  the  island 
—worse  than  the  rats  which  It  destroyed. 
Then  the  mongoose  was  officially  anathe- 
matized. 

Hawaii,  where  the  mongoose  was  intro- 
duced in  1RS1,  underwent  a  somewhat  sim- 
ilar experience,  and  in  ]«i'2  a  law  was 
passed  forbidding  the  introduction,  breed- 
ing or  keeping  of  the  mongoose  on  that  is- 
land. All  of  whioh  goes  to  show  that  the 
mongoose  Is  a  good  animal  to  let  alone 
where  nature  has  placed  It.

HAPPY,  LAZY  RUATAN. 

An  Island  Where  Mo  One  Has  {o 
Work. 

Rautan,  the  largest  of  the  five  "Bay 
l.slands,"  a  little  chain  or  key  lying  some 
thirty  miles  off  the  coast  of  Spanish 
Honduras,  southeast  of  Port  Cortez,  and 
only  four  days'  travel  from  New  Orleans 
— is  some  forty  miles  long  and  three 
miles  wide. 

It  has  a  population  of  about  3000  peo- 
ple, mostly  Carib  Indians,  and  1  doubt 
whether  there  is  in  all  the  world  a  more 
beautiful  and  prolific  snot.  The  people 
are  lazy  simply  because  they  don't  have 
to  work.  Cocoanuts  form  ther  main- 
stay, and  their  is  nothing  easier  to  grow, 
says  a  writer  in  the  New  Orleans  Times 
Democrat. 

To  start  a  grove,  one  merely  burns  off 
a  Diece  of  land,  and  plants  the  nuts  in 
rows  twenty  feet  apart.  In  from  four 
or  five  vears  time  the  trees  are  a  dozen 
feet  high,  and  are  beginning  to  bear, 
and  after  that  the  planter  is  fixed  for 
life.    He    may   bid   adieu   to   care. 

The  nuts  are  never  picked,  but  as  they 
mature  the.v  drop  off,  and  this  shower 
of  fruit  goes  on  steadily  month  after 
month  all  the  year  around.  Haw  Ions 
a  tree  will  bear  nobody  can  say,  but 
there  are  some  on  the  island  t^iat  are 
known  to  be  over  half  a  century  old, 
and  are  still  drooDing  their  harvest  of 
nuts. 

When  the  native  needs  something  at 
the  store,  all  he  has  to  do  is  to  gather 
together  some  nuts  and  trade  them  for 
what  he  wifihes.  He  hulls  them  by  strik- 
ing them  on  a  stake  driven  in  the 
ground,  and  a  man  can  easily  hull  oOOO 
a  day  in  this  manner. 

Other  fruits  grow  just  as  easily  as  the 
cocoanut,  and  the  only  reason  why  that 
especially  is  grown  is  because  it  fur- 
nishes an  eas.v  crop,  for  which  there  is 
always  a  ready  market.  There  are 
plenty  of  bananas,  oranges,  mangoes, 
plums  and  pineapples,  and  they  are  all 
delicious.  They  grow  wild,  without  the 
slightest  cultivation,  and  all  one  has  to 
da  is  to  pick  them. 

Vegetables  are  equally  prolific,  and  the 
native  yams  easily  average  forty  or  fifty 
pounds  in  weight.  A  piece  of  cane  stuck 
in  the  ground  takes  root  and  renews  it- 
self perennially  for  years.  Roses  and 
flowers  of  almost  every  imaginable 
variety  run  wild  from  one  end  of  Rua- 
tan  to  the  other. 

A  stranger  who  comes  to  the  islands 
i.s  invariably  amazed  at  the  prodigality 
of  nature  and  the  apathy  of  the  natives 
—that  is,  before  the  lazy  feeling  gets  into 
his  blood.  The  thermometer  has  never 
been  known  to  fall  below  66  degrees  or 
to  rise  abave  88  degrees.  Being  part  -t^ 
Spanish  Honduras,  the  island'  is,  of 
courFe,  under  the  s-nvernment  nf  that  re- 
public, but  it  is  too  far  away  ever  to  be 
disturbed  by  the  storms  of  revolution, 
and  at  present  things  are  peculiarly 
serene  . 

The  Honduranian  government  is  rep- 
resented by  an  administrator,  a  com- 
mandante  and  a  governor.      There    Is 


never  any  friction,  and  their  slmide 
duties  are  confin<'d  chietty  to  the  collec- 
tion of  customs.  There  is  no  military 
establishment,  and  the  only  jail  on  the 
island  is  a  small  one-hoom  hut,  in  which 
a  plain  drunk  occasionally  sleeps  off  too 
much  native  brandy.  Theft  and  other 
crimes  are  unknown,  and  doors  are 
never  locked. 


Reports  show  that  over  fifteen  hundred 
lives  have  been  sf  ved  through  the  use  of 
One  Minute  Cough  Cure.  Most  of  these 
were  cases  of  gr:ppe,  croii'n,  asthma, 
whoojdng  cough,  bronchitis  and  pneumo- 
nia. It.c  earlv  use  prevents  consumption.

B08US  OLD  MASTERS. 

There  is  no  doubt  that  the  counter- 
feiters of  paintings  by  well-known  ar- 
tists are  hard  at  vvoi-k  in  anticijiation  of 
the  rush  of  half-informed  picture  buyers 
to  the  Paris  expt  sition,  says  Art  Ama- 
teur. 

One  well-known  picture  dealer  informs 
us  that  Brussels  and  Amsterdam  are 
full  of  spurious  eld  masters,  and  he  in- 
stances the  case  of  a  picture  sold  by  him 
about  a  year  ag3  which  has  turned  up 
in  the  former  cit>  bearing  a  name  moi-.- 
famous  than  that  of  its  autraor,  and 
priced  at  ten  times  the  amount  for  which 
he  had  sold  it. 

From  another  source  we  learn  that  two 
of  the  most  famous  falsifiers  of  pictures 
in  Europe  are  rushed  with  orders  for 
their  sx>ecialtles. 

The  London  picture  factories  are  turn- 
ing out  old  English  paintings  by  the 
dozen,  and  the  unscrupulous  buyer  may 
obtain  Sir  Joshuas,  Gainsboroughs  and 
Romneys  for  $50  1.0  $100  apiece.  An  ex- 
pert appraiser  at  the  New  York  custom 
house  tells  us  thet  he  saw  there  latelv 
three  dozen  false  Monticellis  and  other 
pictures  on  the  same  day. 

These  false  pic  tures  are  not  sold 
through  the  reguar  dealers.  They  are 
peddled  about  by  irresjxjnsible  but  giib 
and  well-dressed  persons,  wha  always 
tell  the  same  story.  The  picture  be- 
longs to  some  private  owner  who  is 
pressed  for  money,  but  who  desires  to 
avoid  publicity.  For  this  reason  his 
name  cannot  be  given. 

He  could  sell  to  a  dealer,  but  the 
dealer  would  want  to  make  too  much 
profit.  He  would  want  to  pay  $5000  and 
charge  $15,000.  The  owner  prefers  to 
sell  to  a  collector  of  taste  and  judgment 
for  $10,000.  He  will  even,  being  in 
straits  for  cash,  take  $8000.  Finally, 
after  much  parley,  the  picture  is  sjid 
for  $6000,  and  the  new  owner  congratu- 
lates himself  on  having  obtained  a  mas- 
terpiece by  a  famous  painter  for  one- 
third  its  value. 

It  is  easy  to  gi^•e  a  painting  tlie  look 
of  are.  It  is  onl>-  to  mix  dirt  with  the 
paints  and  with  the  varnish.  rJad  var- 
nish dried  quickly  produces  deep  cracks, 
.".nd  these  can  be  made  to  appear  old 
cracks  by  nutting  another  coat  of  var- 
nish over  them.

STOPPEDJY  LIONS. 

Speaking  in  the  hou.se  of  lords  of  the 
progress  of  the  Uganda  railway.  Lord 
Salisbury  mentioned  that  among  the  un- 
expected difficulties  eneountend  were  a 
pair  of  man-eating  lions,  which  stopped 
the  works  for  three  weeks  before  they 
were  shot,  says  the  London  Spectator.  An 
some  5000  men  were  at  work  on  the  line, 
the  intimidation  by  two  lions  seems  al- 
most Incredible.  Yet  it  is  a  fact  that  so 
dreadful  was  the  j)ressure  exercised  by 
the  constant  attacks  of  this  pair  of  man- 
destroying  wild  beasts,  and  so  cumulalive 
the  fear  <aused  among  thf  Indian  labor- 
ers bv  the  sight  and  sound  of  their  com- 
rades" being  carried  oft"  and  devoured,  that 
hundreds  of  these  industrious  workmen, 
trained  on  similar  duties  under  the  ser- 
vic'e  of  the  government  of  India,  aban- 
doned thtir  emi)loyment  an<l  pay,  and. 
erying  out  that  they  agreed  to  work  for 
wages,  not  to  be  food  for  lions  or  devils, 
rushed  to  the  line  as  the  trains  for  the 
coast  were  approaching,  and,  flinging 
themselves  across  the  metals,  gave  the 
engine  drivers  the  choice  either  of  p.asslng 
over  their  bodies  or  of  stopping  to  take 
them  up  and  carry  them  back  to  Mom- 
basa. Many  of  these  men  were  not  timi  1 
Hindus,  but  sturdy  Kikhs.  Yet  the  cir- 
cumstances were  so  unique,  and  the  scenes 
witnessed  from  week  to  week  so  blood>- 
and  appa'ilng.  that  their  panic  and  desper- 
ation are  no  matter  for  surprise..  ]./ord 
Salisbury  understated  the  facts. 

Though  the  works  were  stopped  for 
three  weeks,  the  lions'  campaign  lasted, 
with  intervals  of  quiet  when  one  or  other 
had  been  wounded,  from  March  till  the 
end  of  December.  In  this  time  they  killed 
and  ate  twenty-eight  Indians,  and  it  is 
believed  at  least  twice  this  number  of 
native.«i,  Swahllls  and  the  like,  beside.^ 
woundinp  and  attacking  others.  They  at- 
tacked white  engineers,  doctors,  soldiers 
and  military  officers,  armed  Abyssinian 
askaris,  sepoys,  bunniahs.  coolies  and 
porters.  Some  thfy  clawed,  some  thev 
devoured,  some  they  carried  oiT  and  left 
sticking  In  thorn  fences  because  thev  coulil 
not  drag  them  through.  At  first  they  w«  r* 
contented  to  takp  one  man  between"  them. 
Before  the  end  of  their  career  they  would 
take  a  man  apiece  on  the  same  night, 
sometimes  from  the  same  hut  or  camptire. 

Deafness  Cannot  Be  Cnred 

by  local  applications,  as  they  cannot  reach 
the  diseased  portion  of  the  ear.  There  is 
only  one  wayto  cure  deafness,  and  that  is 
by  constitutional  remedies.  Deafness  is 
caused  by  an  inflamed  condition  of  the 
mtirous  lining  of  the  Eustachian  Tube. 
When  this  tube  gets  Inflamed  you  have  a 
rumbling  sound  or  Imperfect  hearlns, 
and  when  it  is  entirely  closed  deafness  is 
the  result,  and  unless  the  Inflammation 
c.an  be  taken  out  nnd  this  tube  restored 
to  Its  normal  condition,  hearing  will  be 
destroyed  forever:  nine  cases  out  of  ten 
are  caused  by  catarrh,  which  la  nothing 
but  an  inflamed  condition  of  the  mucous 
surfaces.

for  many  years  of  this  tim.-  he  was  waieii- 
in:iri  at  t!ie  main  north  front  and  later 
ai  ;he  east  fi-jiu,  he  grew  to  be  familiiiT- 
ly  known  tu  a.l.  says  the  New   York  Sun. 

t^mt  w;i^  born  on  a  -jilantaiion  aiij.i;i--

Ili>ldO(.ks  Hill,  on  the  dislri<t  line  ad- 
joining ilarylaml.  .ibout  Islfi.  Hi.s  parents 
haii  won  freedom  for  themselves  by  tiieir 
un'-rririg  faithfulness,  and  James  seemed 
to  inherit  this  trail  ti-n-fold.  He  was,  as 
•A  MuinK  man.  ihi  most  famous  cook  in 
A\';i-'h'.niTton,  and  serveil  in  this  capacity 
:it  the  navy  yan).  His  fame  spread  .-o 
th  it  he  w-as  frenii'-ntly  sent  for  to  gel  up 
bit;  dinners,  ami  h--  has  br.-n  called  upon 
at   the   Wtiitf  House  a  number  of  times. 

Incle  James,  or  I'ncle  Jimmie.  as  he  was 
familiarly  called,  .-served  as  a  messenger 
in  the  Museum,  when  it  was  in  the  ITnited 
Slites  i.atenr  oflite.  and  when  the  Smith- 
sonian liuiMitii;  was  eompU-ted  I'jicle 
J^imes  was  moved  over  with  the  rest  of 
th''  curios  and  beijan  service  under  the 
lat-  Professor  H'-nry.  The  aitachm^-nt  be- 
tw'i-n  the  two  was  very  great,  and  the 
professor  wa.-:  often  heard  ti>  eulogize  the 
old  man.  more  than  once  remarking  that 
there  lived  no  man  whom  he  had  rather 
trust  with  his  life  and  all  that  made  it 
dear  than  James  Oant.  t)n  the  other  hand, 
James'  «-onsi  Ifration  anil  tender  care  tor 
the  great  proffssor  were  marvelloa.s. 
AVheh  he  kept  tht-  main  door,  ye<irs  ago,

fnique  as  it  was.  and  ill  as  it  served  to 
rt  me(ly  the  evil  for  which  it  was  intended. 
it  hung  for  a  long  time  where  James  put 
it,  a  mirth-t)rovoking  evidence  of  his  I'Ti- 
der  care   for  his  great   friend's  comfort. 

Every  one  about  the  National  Museum 
nnd  Smithsonian  has  a  .story  to  tell  of 
T'ncle  James  Gant.  and  each  one  speaks 
a  volume  of  conscientious  devotion  to 
duty,  of  tender  p.Ttience  anil  a  dignity  of 
r.erson  and  morals  seldom  met  with  in  the 
life  of  any  man.  He  was  a  member  of  the 
Methodist  church,  and  while  he  intruded 
his  religion  on  no  one.  Christianity  seemed 
to  eiiianate  from  his  very  person.  Hi.s 
measure  of  a  man  was  not  by  his  worldly 
goods  or  what  he  gave  James  Gant.  tut 
bv   what    he   knew.     Though    himself   un- 


taught, he  entertained  the  most  profound 
respect  for  a  learned  man.  One  of  the 
duties  that  he  early  took  upon  him.^cif 
was  always  to  be  at  the  east  front  to  open 
tht  door  and  assist  the  secretary  of  the 
Smithsonian  from  his  carriage.  If  by 
chance  he  missed  this  pleasant  task  iie 
regretted  it  all  day. 

For  Secretary  Langley  he  always  per- 
formed this  task,  and  a  cheery  "Good 
mornin',  suh  I"  always  ea.sed  the  lirst 
steps  of  the  day's  trials.  If  it  rained.  Pro- 
fessor Langley  «'ver  found  him  with  hi.'? 
umbrella,  ready  to  escort  him  in,  or  wait- 
ing at  the  iloor  witn  overshoes,  solicitous 
of  his  h.-aith  and  comfort.  No  one  speaks 
more  fully  or  eloquently  of  the  old  negro 
than  iie. 

Though  duty  demanded  that  James  ap- 
pear at  the  institution  at  S  o'clock,  he 
oft>'n  went  as  early  as  4.  fearing  that  tiie 
nii;ht  watchman  might  be  ill  or  tired  out 
or  some  small  detail  of.  ^^he  day's  begin- 
ning might  be  forgottt-n.  one  of  his  great- 
est delights  was  in  lelling,  with  a  broad 
sweet)  of  the  hand,  how  he  had  watch.-d 
the  trees  grow  up  until  the  great  parks 
around   w»*re  shaded   by  them. 

Mr.  Cox,  chief  clerk  of  the  National  Mu- 
seum, who  has  a  keen  sense  of  humor 
and  an  appreciation  of  the  picturesque  side 
of  I'ncle  James'  life,  tells  a  story  of  the 
only  time  he  ever  knew  him  to  be  out  of 
patience.  For  long  years  there  worked 
side  by  side  with  Tncle  James  in  the 
Smithsonian  an  old  negro  of  the  stime 
type,  named  Roger  Sullivan.  Roger  was 
a  character  fidl  of  quaint  peculiarities, 
and  one  of  them  was  an  ostentatious  sitow 
of  offense  when  asked  to  do  anything  not 
direotlv  or  .strictly  in  the  line  of  duty, 
and  as" Roger  himself  drew  that  line,  there 
was  often  a  question  raised  about  it.  One 
dav  he  appeared  before  Professor  Henry 
and  laying  the  keys  down  on  the  desk, 
turned  to  leave. 

"Going,  Roger?"  mildly  asked  Professor 
Henry. 

"Yes,  suh  I"  with  great  dignity.  Where- 
upon he  betook  himself  out  and  sat  on  a 
bench  under  a  tree  all  day.  James  Gant 
((Uietly  watched  the  performance,  walking 
often  to  the  door  to  look  out  and  see  if 
Roger  stlli  held  out,  and  as  often  return- 
ing to  his  post  of  duty  with  a  comemi)t- 
uous  grunt. 

As  closing  time  neared,  Roger  slowly 
walked  into  the  professor's  ollice.  wlien  he 
silently  handed  him  his  key  and  the  old 
ftdlow"  resumed  his  duties  just  as  though 
nothing  had  happened.  James  never  tor- 
goi  this  piece  of  nonsi-nse  on  Roger's  part 
and  his  commens  on  it  were  mirth-provok- 
ing. He  always  closeil  his  recital  by  ted- 
ing  how  Roger  refused  to  take  pay  not 
only  on  such  occasions  as  tlds,  hut  even 
when  he  lay  ill  and  dying  he  refused  ti) 
take  the  money  for  his  salary  because  he 
had  not  been   there  to  earn  it. 

James  Gant  owns  a  neat  little  house  on 
Capitol  Hill  and  Is  quite  comfortably  off. 
Himself  one  of  twelve  children,  he  lived 
to  see  six  sons  and  daughters  grow  up  uito 
useful  man  and  womanhood,  each  a  dt- 
iiglit  to   the  model  father.

Great  Change  in  the  Methods 

of  Schools  of 

Acting. 


There  were  twenty-four  girls  and  fif- 
teen men  in  the  graduating  class  of  the 
American  Academy  of  the  Drainatic 
Arts  this  year,  and  nearly  all  of  the 
graduates  hav-*  already  signed  contracts 
for  next  year,  but.  naturally,  they  are 
not  all  cut  out  for  stars  of  the  first  mag- 
nitude. Some  of  them  may  fizzle  oit 
altogether  and  drop  from  the  theatrical 
firmament,  but  their  diplomas  are  guar- 
antees of  a  certain  degree  of  ability  and 
a  creditable  training,  and  they  are  to 
have  their  chance.  What  the  first  years 
of  practical  stage  experience  will  bring 

out  neither  teachers  nor  managers    can 
tell. 

"What  are  the  chief  elements  th.jt 
contribute  to  the  failure  or  success  of 
your  graduates?"  a  New  York  Sun  re- 
porter asked  Franklin  Sargent,  presi- 
dent of  the  school  w  hioh  aspire.>-'  to  be  to 
the  American  stage  what  the  Conserva- 
toire is  to  the  French  stage. 

"That's  a  comprehensive  question," 
Mr.  Sargent  replied,  "but  I  should  say 
that,  given  fair  physical  and  mental  en- 
dt\vn»ent,  success  depends  very  largely 
or.  the  presence  or  absence  of  that  iii- 
de.scribable  something  called  personality 
and  on  a  capai'lty  or  lack  of  capacity  for 
hard  and  ambitious  work.  Beauty  is  a 
valuable  thing  for  an  actress,  but  it  does 
not  ctiunt  for  as  much  as  it  did  in  the 
old  days.  Loc-k  at  the  most  famous 
actresses  today  and  se.*  how  many  of 
them  are  beautiful.  Oood  looks  may  get 
a  girl  a  place  on  the  legitimate  stage, 
lut  it  will  not  keen  the  place  for  her, 
and  it  will  not  carry  her  to  pronounced 
success. 

"When  Mary  Anderson  came  out  sh(i 
took  ten  lessons  and  then  w.is  put  on  in 
"Parthenia"  and  that  s^ort  of  thing.  She 
created  a  furore,  but  if  she  were  a  debu- 
tante today  site  couldn't  repeat  the  ex- 
perience. Only  a  short  time  ago  a  youn.:? 
woman  called  upon  one  of  our  New  York 
managers.  She  was  stunning,  with  a 
face  and  flgtire  and  personality  even 
more  charming  than  Mary  Anderson's. 
The  manager  was  delighted,  enthusias- 
tic. promi.<<ed  her  great  things,  and  told 
her  she  must  come  up  here  and  put  in 
two  years  of  hard  study.  She  wouldn't 
have  it,  couldn't  do  it.  Finally,  rather 
than  lose  her,  he  agreed  to  six  months 
of  work  at  high  piessure.  She  Is  work- 
ing desperately  hard  and  doing  well. 
There's  the  difference  between  the  new- 
stage  requirements  and  the  old.  The 
public,  the  critics  and  the  managers  de- 
mand a  higher  grade  of  work  and 
greater  intelligence  in  the  actor,  and 
dramatic  training  is  a  very  different 
thing  from  what  it  was  even  ten  years 
ago. 

We  can  mark  the  change  plainly  in  the 
alterations  we  have  Ijeen  obliged  to 
make  in  our  methods.  Sixteen  years  agj 
our  instructors  were  mere  meclianics, 
teaching  conventional  dramatic  tech- 
nique. Now  we  need  instructors  of 
higher  equipment  and  ability.  The 
methods  of  wnk  are  muc  h  deeper,  stan- 
dards of  intelligent  study  are  higher. 
The  old  imitative  and  perfunctory  sys- 
tem is  swept  away,  and  we  have  a  sys- 
tem  based  on  logic  and  rea.son.  founded ' 
on  the  great  principles  of  physiology, 
psychology  and  aesthetics.  For  ex- 
ample, look  at  the  study  of  (dd-age  char- 
acters.  The  student  doesn't  merely 
Imitate  the  old  persons  he  sees.  He  is 
taught  the  physiological  effects  of  age. 
tlie  forms  of  the  bones  that  become 
prominent,  the  lines  that  result,  the  re- 
lation of  the  bones  and  muscles,  the 
effect  of  age  upon  the  muscles  of  the 
upper,  middle,  and  lower  face,  upon  the 
voice,  upon  the  mental  characteristics, 
upon  the  whole  anatomy  of  the  body, 
the  walk,  the  poise,  the  hand.  With  a 
physiological  and  physchological  under- 
standing of  the  results  of  age.  the  stu- 
dent can  work  out  intelligent  and  origi- 
nal interpretations  of  such  rules. 

"Then  there  are  the  life  study  classes. 
The  pupils  are  required  to  select  inci- 
dents from  real  life,  street  scenes,  etr-., 
and  to  give,  in  the  classroom  the  action, 
gestures,  tones,  motives,  contrasts, 
pathos,  humor  of  perhaps  half  a  dozen 
I)er.<»ons  concerned  in  the  episode.  Such 
study  develops  a  literary  as  well  as  a 
dramatic  faculty,  and  its  results  are  tre- 
mendously beneficial;  but  nothing  of  th-^ 
kind  was  ever  attempted  in  the  old  days. 
The  theory  and  laws  of  color  are  studied 
along  lines  strictly  scientific. 

"The  study  of  dramatic  literature  is 
analytical  and  philosophical.  The  phil- 
osophy and  history  of  costume  are  ih")- 
roughly  tau??ht.  You  see  there  Is  a 
philosophical  current  under  the  whole 
course  of  dramatic  training,  and  the 
modern  teaching  naturally  turns  out 
professionals  of  broader  capacity, 
higher  intelligence  and  finer  ideals. 

"The  effect  of  the  new  standards  car. 
already  be  seen.  The  managers  say 
that  one  or  two  actresses  of  the  new 
type,  who  study  intelligently  and  have 
high  standards  of  thought  and  culture, 
can  leaven  the  whole  tone  of  a  com- 
pany. Our  best  professionals  have  al- 
ways gained  through  their  own  efforts 
their  force  and  breadth;  but  the 
younger  m^n  and  womeia  now  are  stari- 
.ing  in  upon  the  profession  with  what  a 
few  of  their  elders  learned  through 
hard  experience  and  many  lost  years." 
"Do  you  h.ive  many  applicants?" 
"The  number  of  young  people  who 
want  to  go  on  the  stage  is  simply  ap- 
palling. 1  always  say  that  this  school  of 
ours  confers  a  greater  favor  upon  the 
public  by  the  number  of  persons  it  keeps 
off  the  stage  than  by  the  number  it  puts 
on.  We  have  anywhere  from  3000  to 
4000  applications  every  year,  most  of 
them  by  correspondence,  and  out  of  that 
number  we  may  take  a  possible  seventy- 
five.  There  are  four  time?  as  many  w  > 
en  as  men  among  them  who  apply, 
and  95  per  cent  of  them  have  no  more 
aptitude  for  stage  work  than  they  have 
for  Sanscrit.  We  send  each  applicant 
a  long  list  of  questions  to  be  answered; 
and.  l)y  the  facts  given  in  the  an.=wers 
and  l)y  the  style  of  the  answers,  we  can 
.■size  up  the  individuails  fairly  weil. 
Most  of  .them  we  drop  at  once,  advisin;;; 
them  to  .give  up  all  thought  of  the  stage. 
Those  to  whom  we  give  a  personal  ex- 
amination are  carefully  studied:  and. 
unless  we  believe  they  have  real  dra- 
matic possibilities,  we  decline  to  take 
them,  and  discourage  their  stage  mania. 
"Physical  qualifications  and  intelli- 
gence cut  a  figure  of  course,  but  some- 
thing more  than  that  is  needed,  and  the 
motives  that  move  an  applicant  to  study 
for  the  stage  are  an  important  clue  to 
fitness." 

"When  did  you  first  think  of  this?" 
I  ask.  "If  a  girl  says.  "Last  year,  or 
two  years  ago,'  that  usually  settles  it: 
hut.  If  sh^  says.  'I've  always  thought 
about  it  an('  wanted  to  act,'  I  ask  her 
when  she  began  to  do  anything  toward 
it.  If  she  has  any  real  talent,  she  has 
probably  been  trying  to  act  foi  her 
own  amusement,  going  home  from  thf; 
theatre  and  trying  the  scenes  in  h-^r 
own  room.  etc.  It's  an  interesting  thing 
that  it  Is  almost  always  at  15  that  she 
has  first  started  in  on  experiments  of 
that  kind." 

"Ought  students  to  begin  regular  dra- 
matio  study   early?"     asked     the     re- 


porter. 

"The  earlier  the  better.  Child  train- 
ing would  be  a  good  thing.  If  the  right, 
natural  methods  could  be  pursuecl  and 
no  artificiality  instilled  into  the  child 
nature:  but.  since  that  seems  practically 
impossible  nc^w.  It  is  at  least,  desirable 
that  students  should  liegin  work  at  17 
or  18.  Comparatively  few  of  our  pupils 
are  so  young  as  that.  The  age  average 
among  the  men  is  22,  and  among  the 
women  23,  but  we  have  pupils  of  16, 
and  others  who  are  from  20  to  40  years 
old.  The  student  of  40  Is  barred  from 
some  roles,  but  there  Is  always  a  de- 
mand for  good  old  women  and  old  men 
on  the  stage.  A  most  charming,  white 
haired  old  lady  came  in  to  see  me  the 
other  day  and  I  advised  her  strongly 
to  study  for  the  stage.  She  has  a 
delightful  personality  and  two  years' 
or  even  one  year's  work  would  fit  her 
to  make  a  good  living.  There's  no  other 
profession  in  which  you  get  the  value 
of  what  you  do  so  quickly  and  so  liber- 
ally a.s  you  do  on  the  stage 

"The  greatest  numbei  of  our  girls 
come  from  the  West,  but  the  greatest 
amount  of  talent  is  shown  by  the  South- 
ern pupils.  They  are,  as  a  rule,  pretty, 
have  charming  manners  and  sweet 
voices,  and  then  they  usually  have  tem- 
peraments. That  is  the  keynote  of 
success.  The  Southern  girls  have  feel- 
ings, fire,  Imaginatitm.  a  certain  warmth 
of  sympathy  that  tells  with  an  audi- 
ence every  time.  They  have  the  talent, 
but  they  often  fail  from  sheer  laziness. 
They  do  not  often  work  as  hard  as  the 
Northern  or  Western  girl;  and,  in  the 
long  run,  industry  and  pluck  tell.  The 
reason  half  the  promising  ycung  ac- 
tresses and  actors  fail  to  achieve  real 
success  is  that  they  will  not  work.  They 
get  discouraged,  if  things  do  not  come 
their  way  at  once.  They  aren't  patient 
or  plucky.  They  lose  their  grip  on 
higher  standards,"  slip  into  careless 
work  do  not  develop.  The  v.omen  and 
men  who  succeed  are  working,  study- 
ing, broadening  every  day,  and  employ- 
ing their  leisure  hours  in  that  way. 
I  could  point  out  the  men  and  women  of 
leal  dramatic  standing  and  prove  to 
you  that  they  are  all  working  like  Tro- 
jans. They  don't  get  up  at  noon  and 
fool  away  the  afternoon  and  then  fool 
away  half  the  night,  after  thc^atre  is 
over.      Not  much. 

"I  rememl>er  years  ago,  going  behind 
the  scenes  with  Mr.  Frohnian  and  ask- 
ing where  a  young  girl  was  who  had  a 
minor  part  in  the  play.  The  old  stagers 
all  laughed  and  said  she  was  in  her 
dressing  room  grinding  away  at  some- 
thing—that she  never  had  time  for  any 
fun,  even  between  acts,  but  shut  herself 
up  and  studied  Shakespeare.  They 
thought  she  was  a  fool.  Today  she  is 
one  of  the  most  successful  actresses  on 
the  American  stage;  and  it  was  sheer 
grit  and  work,  not  natural  talent  that 
did  it.  Laziness  has  ruined  hosts  of 
actors  and  actres.«es  of  talent.  They 
either  quit  the  work  altogether— by  way 
cif  marragie  usually,  in  the  women's 
oa.ses — or  else  they  drift  down  lower  and 
lower,  by  degrees,  and  the  tide  sweeps 
on  and  leaves  them.  One  must  keep 
up  with  the  dramatic  procession  today. 
or  go  under. 

"The  character  of  our  applicants  is 
gradually  changing.  The  improvement 
in  the  tone  of  the  profession  and  the 
broadening  of  social  ideas  account  for 
it.  I  suppose.  We  get  ijoys  and  girls 
from  the  best  families,  and  a  great  many 
college  graduates  of  both  sexes  come  to 
us.  It's  a  funny  thing  though  that 
we  seldom  find  our  remarkably  gifted 
jiupils  among  that  class.  They  do  well 
in  the  modern  society  play  or  light  ro- 
mantic drama;  but  for  real  emotion 
high  tragedy,  pathos,  humor,  the  prize 
roes  to  pupils  from  the  lowest  classes. 
1  fancy  It  Is  bec-ause,  in  that  social 
stratum,  instinct  counts  for  more  than 
education.  Emotions  are  primitive  and 
the  lower  classes  don't  hesitate  to  ex- 
press them  in  primitive  fashion.  In  the 
upped  crust  of  society,  the  gospel  of  re- 
nresslons  has  been  prea.^ked  for  so  long, 
that  everyone  is  encased  in  a  heredita.y 
and  acquired  shell  of  good  breeding, 
and  we  have  a  terrible  time  chipping 
i^ff  enough  of  the  shell  to  let  emotion 
and  sentiment  leak  through. 

"I'll  tell  you  the  hardest  proposition 
in  theatre  training— a  Quaker  pupil.  He 
may  have  talent  and  pluck,  bat  he  has 
to  slough  off  all  his  nature,  education 
and  traditions  before  he  can  express 
natural  feelings  unreservedly.  For  the 
last  two  years  our  highest  honors  have 
all  Ijeen  carried  off  Ijy  pupils  from  the 
lower  East  Side.  That  proves  just  what 
I've  been  saying.  The  students  brought 
us  temperament  and  fire,  but  had  no 
mental  discipline.  We  can  furnish 
mental  training,  but  we  couldn't  have 
furnished  the  dramatic  instinct  and  tem- 
perament. A  good  many  of  our  sweller 
pupils  bring  us  what  we  could  supply 
and  haven't  the  necessary  elements  that 
we  can't  supply. 

"Mixed  l)lood  prcxluces  good  dramatic 
po.ssibilities.  and  a  dash  of  Hebrew  is 
especially  valuable.  The  Hebrew  tem- 
perament is  essentially  dramatic.  In 
fact,  almost  all  races  are  more  gifted 
dramatically  than  are  the  Anglo-Saxons. 
Our  prize  pupil  two  years  ago  was  a 
Hungarian,  and  we  had  a  girl  who  was. 
a  compound  of  Hebrew,  French  and 
Spanish,  who  was  a  wonder— full  of  fire 
to  her  finger  tips. 

"Women  are  easier  to  work  with  than 
men— <iuicker,  more  apt.  The  men  seem 
less  responsive;  but,  in  the  long  run. 
T  lielieve  more  of  our  men  are  defi- 
nitely successful  than  of  our  women. 
A  good  comedienne  is  the  hardest  thin^ 
in  the  dramatic  world  to  find.  In  fact, 
high-class  comedy  is  out  of  the  reach 
of  most  pupils  and  professionals.  So 
is  straight  high  tragedy,  for  that  mat- 
ter. Eccentric  character  work  is  tho 
easiest  thing  in  the  profession,  and 
melodrama  comes  easily  too.  If  a  pupil 
shows  a  tendency  to  exaggerated  melo- 
drama, at  first,  we  u.«ually  encourage 
it,  to  give  freedom  of  expression  and  un- 
consciousness.    Later  we  can  refine  it. 

"One  thing  is  almost  unteachable. 
There  are  certain  instinctive  tenets  of 
good  breeding,  certain  attitudes  of  mind 
and  resultant  expression  that  can't  very 
well  be  grafted  upon  an  untrained  na- 
ture. They  are  a  matter  of  heritage 
and  early  training.  That's  why  so  many 
actors  and  actresses  aren't  convincing 
in  society  plays.  They  can  study  the 
atmosphere  of  a  historical  play.  and.  if 
they  slip  up  on  little  things  in  it,  the 
audience  will  not  know  the  difference, 
but  a  society  audience  knows  what  a 
modern  gentleman  will  do  and  will  not 
do,  and  any  numlier  of  clever  actors  fail, 
lamentably  when  they  try  to  interpret 
an  ordinary  well-bred,  modern  gentle- 
man. If  they  haven't  the  instincts  in 
themselves,  they  slip  up  in  a  multitude 
of  little  ways. 

"We  have  a  great  many  ugly  duckling 
episodes.  I  have  even  dropped  girls 
at  the  end  of  their  junior  year,  because 
I  thought  them  hoiJeless.  and  have  seen 
them  blossom  out  into  stars;  and  I  have 
grudgingly  graduated  pupils,  thinking 
they  would  never  amount  to  much,  who 
met  with  lucky  opportunities  and 
achieved  big  reputations.  It's  a  good 
deal  of  a  speculation.  A  numl>er  of  our 
pupils  are  succeding  famously,  not  so 
much  throu.gh  dramatic  talent  a=? 
through  an  infinite  capacity  for  di- 
plomacy and  handling  their  own  busi- 
ness interests.  thers  succeed  because 
they  have  sense  enough  to  recognize 
their  limitations  and  devote  all  their 
energies  to  perfecting  themselves  within 
those  limitations.  Oh.  the  times  we 
have  persuading  girls  who  want  to  lie 
Juliets  that  they  really  haven't  any 
special  gift  save  for  old  woman  charac- 
ter roles,  but  could  do  very  well  in  that 
line!  And  the  times  we  have  convinc- 
ing undersized  men  that  they  wont  do 
for  Orlandos  and  D'Ariagnans.  but  will 
make  fairly  good  French  waiters  and 
valets! 

"By  the  way,  lack  of  physique  is  the 
greatest  handicap  among  young  actors. 
A  very  large  proportion  of  our  men  pu- 
pils are  small,  and  it  counts  against 
them;  but  it  gives  the  few  big.  fine  look- 
ing fellows  a  good  chance.  eVen  if  they 
haven't  brains— they  meet  so  little  com- 
petition,"

Contagious  Blood  Poison  is  the  most  degrtding  and  destru4>tive  of  all  diseases,  as  it  vitiates  and  corrupts  the  entire  system. 
The  first  sore  or  ulcer  is  followed  by  Utile  red  pimples  on  the  body,  mouth  and  tiiroat  become  sore,  the 
glands  enlarge  and  inflame,  copper  colored  splotches  appear,  and  hair  and  eyebrows  fall  out.  These  are 
some  of  the  milder  symptoms ;  they  increase  in  severity,  finally  attacking  the  vital  organs  ;  the  body  k 
tortured  with  rheumatic  pains  and  coven ni  -with  offensive  eating  sores. 

It  is  a  pecnliar  tjoison,  and  so  highly  contagious  that  an  innocent  person  handling  the  same  article* 
used  by  one  inf«cted  with  this  loathsome  disease,  may  be  inoculated  with  the  virus.  It  can  be  transmitted 
from  parent  to  child,  appearing  as  the  same  disease  or  in  a  modified  form  —  like  Eczema  or  Scrofula, 

Many  an  old  sore  or  stubborn  skin  ti  ouble  appearing  in  middle  life,  is  due  and  traceable  to  Uood 
poison  contracted  in  early  life.  You  maj  have  taken  potash  and  mercury  faithfully  for  two  or  three  yeM» 
and  thought  you  were  cured,  but  you  weix!  not,  for  these  poisonous  minerals  never  cure  this  disease ;  they 
drive  it  from  the  outside,  but  it  is  doing  its  work  on  the  inside,  and  will  show  up  again  sooner  or' later 
You  may  not  recognize  it  as  the  same  old  taint,  but  it  is.  S.  S.  S.  has  cured  thousands  of  cases  of 
Contagious  Blood  Poison,  and  it  will  cuie  yon.  It  is  the  only  purely  vegetable  blood  purifier  known 
and  the  only  antidote  for  this  poison.  S.  S.  S.  cleanses  the  blood  thoroughly  of  every  particle  of  the 
poison  —  there  is  never  any  return  of  the  disease.  .

The  ''Cowboy  DetecHve's" 

Tenacity  in  Deiving  Brings 

Him  Fortune. 


Dug  Fruitiessiy  Long  Enougli

■ortal. 


The  famous  "cowijoy  deteciive,"  S.  S. 
Simon,  is  no  longer  in  the  "detecting" 
business.  He  is  becoming  a  very  rich 
man  at  a  rate  tat  would  turn  the 
head  of  a  man  les.s  used  to  sudden 
changes  of  fortune  than  this  daredevil 
Westeraer,  whose  forty  years  of  life 
have  been  crammed  full  of  exciting  ad- 
venture. The  million  mark  with  him 
is  not  so  very  far  away,  and  his  recent 
lucky  strike  in  Kern  county  oil  is  only 
a  small  part  of  it,  says  a  San  Francisco 
special  to  the  Cincinnati  Enquirer. 

Years  ago  he  went  t(rColorado  to  be- 
come a  cowboy.  Later  he  entered  the 
government  service  here  as  detective 
when  John  C.  Qulnn  was  collector  of 
port,  and  scored  many  a  triumph  in  that 
capacity,  his  most  notable  achievement 
Ijeing  the  unearthing  of  the  Wong  Gi 
Ang  opium  stamp  frauds,  by  the  dis- 
covery of  which  he  saved  the  neat  sum 
of  $1.W,000  to  the  United  States  govern- 
ment as  tlie  result  of  one  day's  work. 
For  this  little  trick  the  Chinese  high- 
binders set  a  price  upon  his  head,  but 
the  head,  though  valued  then  at  $:J,000 
if  separated  from  his  body,  is  still  upon 
his  shoulders,  and  it  is  a  pretty  wise 
head  at  that. 

That  was  not  the  only  chance  he  has 
had  to  lose  his  thinking  department. 
A  San  Francisco  Examiner  reporter 
spoiled  a  piece  of  detective  work  upon 
which  he  was  engaged  by  a  "scoop" 
which  put  the  criminals  upon  their 
guard,  but  this  did  not  prevent  the 
Slavonic  colony  from  "gunning"  for  Si- 
mon for  some  time  after.  One  of  this 
colony  had  been  murdered,  and  plans 
of  other  bloody  crimes  were  afoot.  One 
of  these  plans  had  for  its  object  the 
murder  of  four  prominent  members  of 
the  colony,  and  each  killing  was  to  be 
celebrated  by  a  grand  ball.  By  methods 
known  only  to  the  "natural  born"  de- 
tective, Mr.  Simon  ingratiated  himself 
into  the  confidence  of  the  conspirators, 
whose  congenial  task  was  to  l>e  the 
taking  of  their  countrymen's  lives,  and, 
to  carry  out  his  scheme  of  trapping 
them  by  strong  evidence,  agreed  to  get  a 
man  who  would  pei^orm  grewsome  job 
with  effectiveness  and  promptness,  and 
thus  accomplish  the  desired  result  with 
no  personal  risk  to  themselves. 

"Pistol  Bill"  was  the  decoy  selected. 
He  apparently  proved  himself  an  ex- 
pert as  a  wholesale  annihilator  and 
gave  his  employers  complete  satisfaction 
for  when  lie  returned  to  them  with  a 
coat  shot  full  of  holes  and  smeared 
with  doves'  blood  they  rejoiced  greatly, 
in  their  own  peculiar  Slavonic  way, 
and  with  much  cheerfulness  paid  over 
to  "Pistol  Bill"  the  reward  promised 
him  of  $1500.  It  was*  just  as  the  last 
scrap  of  necessary  evidence  was  being 
olJtained  that  qublkity  spoiled  further 
operations  on  Mr.  Simon's  part,  and  the 
conspirators  escaped  by  the  luckiest 
chance  of  their  lives. 

But  wooing  fortune  and  thrilling 
criminal  mysteries  do  not  represent  all 
of  Mr.  Simon's  occupations.  He  has  at- 
tracted considerable  attention  as  an 
amateur  actor,  always  appealing  for 
charity's  sake  and  declining  every  offer 
made  to  induce  the  adoption  of  a  pro- 
fessional stage  career.  For  a  number 
of  years  he  was  president  of  the  Cali- 
fornia Dramatic  society. 

From  the  glittering  role  of  Romeo  to 
the  money-seeking  one  of  an  oil  pro- 
curer, with  a  practical  eye  on  the  alert 
for  anything  else  that  might  prove  pro- 
fitable to  his  pocket,  is  certainly  a  con- 
trast of  employments.  Five  years  ago 
Mr.  Simon  left  San  Francisco  and  went 
directly  into  the  Colorado  desert.  It 
was  his  belief  that  a  fortune  was  await- 
ing him  somewhere  or  other  in  the 
earth's  surface  and  in  some  form  or 
other  and  that  it  might  be  his  for  the 
digging. 

His  digging  was  fruitless  for  months, 
but  he  icept  on  with  the  same  energy 
and  perseverence,  as  if  he  was  making 
$17  a  minute.  He  unearthed  plenty  of 
monozlte,  a  valuable  commodity,  but 
one  for  which  there  was  at  that  time  no 
market,  and  that  was  all  he  found  in 
the  earth  except  an  outlet  for  his  spare 
strength.  He  went  further  north   in 

search  of  antimony,  and  found  a  small 
ledge  of  it,  which  gave  him  the  first 
profit  he  had  earned  since  he  left  San 
Francisco  rather  than  part  with  his 
head.  This  was  the  turn  of  his  luck. 
One  day  he  saw  a  whiteish  outcropping 
in  theside  of  a  hill.  Securing  several 
specimens,  he  had  an  analysis  made  of 
the.  and  the  analysis  proved  that  the 
substance  was  Fuller's  earth  of  the  best 
grade,  equal  to  any  that  England  could 
produce.  Mr.  Simon  began  to  dig  into 
the  side  of  the  hill  to  uncover  his  find. 
He  presevered  for  a  whole  year,  endur- 
ing the  severest  of  hardships  all  that 
while,  the  privations  that  he  suffered 
being  sufficient  to  have  disheartened 
most  men  before  a  quarter  of  that  try- 
ing twelvemonth  was  past.  The  country 
in  that  region  was  dry  and  desolate,  not 
even  yielding  a  drop  of  water  to  the 
parched  toiler  on  the  sun-baked  hHlside. 
Every  day  for  a  year  Simon  trudged 
tw^elve  miles  for  his  drinking  water,  and 
by  and  by  he  succeeded  in  interesting 
capital,  and  a  mill  was  put  into  oper- 
ation. Eventually  he  sold  his  Interest 
in -the  mine  for  $15,000.  . 
Meanwhile     the     cowboy     detective 


cherished  dreams  of  becoming  an  oil 
king.  At  that  timt  oil  was  not  a  boom- 
ing commodity,  and  no  one  really  wanted 
it — excepting  Simon.  No  wonder  it 
seemed  like  a  losirg  game  in  that  part 
of  the  country,  foi-  a  Bakersfleld  firm 
engaged  in  the  industry  had  been  strug- 
gling against  bankruptcy  for  twenty 
years. 

Then  oil  was  discovered  near  Bakers- 
field  and  the  firm  that  had  been  fight- 
ing against  fate  cleaned  up  $475,000. 
Simon  suddenly  became  a  prophet  in  the 
minds  of  those  who  had  previously 
thought  him  a  victim  of  hallucination. 
He  was  among  the  first  to  secure  a  good 
piece  of  land,  and  though  the  tract  was 
contested,  he  held  ;t  against  all  comers. 

One  dark  night  v.hen  he  was  away  in 
Bakersfleld  the  men  who  coveted  his 
property  and  hated  him  for  his  good 
luck  came  to  his  claim,  maliciously 
overturned  his  cal'in  Into  a  gulch  and 
took  po.ssesslon  of  the  land.  The  dis- 
pute was  finally  settled,  Simon  receiv- 
ing $8000.  Wnth  Us  $23,000  Simon  se- 
cured more  oil  land.  He  now  has  a  large 
share  in  four  big  companies  and  an 
eighth  interest  in  37.000  acres  of  land. 
He  is  considered  an  expert  judge  of 
petroleum  territorj,  every  estimate  that 
he  has  made  havin;;  been  proved  correct 
by  the  drills.  There  is  no  stopping  him 
now,  for  his  monty  is  making  money. 
It  all  came,  however,  from  the  simple 
fact  that  all  his  life  he  has  simply  "kept 
on  digging,"  and  he  is  at  it  yet.  He 
declares  he  will  make  $10,000,000  and  quit 
and  if  he  ever  makes  that  amount  he 
will  keep  his  word.

LEGATIOHJTREET. 

Disoription  of  thi  Diplomatic  Quar- 
ter 111  Pokin. 

In  tlie  situation  ir  China  very  much  iie 
pends  upon  the  extent  to  which  the  Eu- 
ropean residents  of  Pekln  can  combine 
for  common  defcns?,  and  the  kind  of  re- 
sistance they  are  likely  to  be  able  to  op- 
pose to  the  attacks  of  the  Chinese  rabble. 
Pekin  i.s  literally  a  city  divided  against  it- 
self. To  the  north,  substantially  square 
in  outline,  lies  the  Tartar  city,  which  holds 
witliin  its  compass  a  second  and  wailed 
quadrangle,  the  imjierlal  city,  where  dwell 
and  labor  ;he  offlcialdom  of  the  capital. 
The  ramparts  of  tliis  select  Inclosure  are 
some  seven  miles  In  circuit  and  themselves 
contain  the  Tzu-Chin-Cheng,  or  Pink  For- 
bidden city,  where  the  emperor  feigns  to 
rule  the  world,  and  Is  himself  a  prisoner, 
within  a  paie  pink  wall  and  a  wide  moat, 
which  shut  liim  it  from  ail  outside  ap- 
proach. The  Chinese  city  which  is  sejmr- 
ated  from  that  of  the  Manchus  by  a  high 
wall.  Is  in  shape  i    rectangular  oblong. 

The  ground  plan  Is  copied  from  thai  of 
a  military  camp,  and  dates  from  the  days 
of  tile  Mongol  Kublai  Khan.  But,  though 
the  streets  are  broad  and  the  principal 
landmarks  so  dlstilbuted  as  to  enable  a 
stranger  to  rapldl>-  find  his  way  about, 
the  whole  place  is  indescribably  filthy 
and  disgusting,  and  does  not  tempt  to  an 
intimate  acquaintance.  Lord  Curzon 
speaks  of  "the  din  and  dust,  the  filth  and 
foulness,  the  vene  -able  and  measureless 
newilderment  of  Pekin."  Round  the 
whole  city  is  built  an  Immense  wall,  from 
twenty-flve  to  fifty  feet  In  height,  and  be- 
tween twenty  and  thirty  miles  in  length. 
This  erection,  whlcli  consists  of  brick  fac- 
ings filled  In  with  mud,  is  in  a  condition 
of  great  dilapidation,  and,  though  Its  out- 
line is  broken  here  and  there  by  huge  bas- 
tions, would  rapidly  crumble  away  under 
the  fire  of  modern  irtillery,  says  the  Lon- 
don Telegraph. 

Entering  the  Tartar  city  bv  the  central 
gate  in  the  dlvidiig  wall,  the  visitor, 
turning  to  the  right,  finds  himself  In  Le- 
gation street.  Her*  are  situated  in  a  nar- 
row avenue,  whld:  Is  overlooked  bv  the 
towering  walls,  the  official  dwellini,'s  of 
the  representatives  of  nearly  all  the  for- 
eign powers.  The  buildings,  which  stand 
In  walled  compounds,  are  of  a  semi-Euro- 
pean nature,  but  would  not  afford  very 
effective  nositlons  irom  which  to  resist  an 
attack,  though  th.>  street  is  sufllciently 
direct  to  be  swept  ilong  Its  length  bv  the 
fire  of  a  Maxim.  The  biggest,  most  im- 
jioslng  and  probal  ly  most  defensible  of 
the  legd-tlons  is  that  of  her  majesty'.^  rep- 
resentative, which  is  not  situated  in  the 
same  street  with  the  others,  but  in  a 
neighboring  lane. 

In  such  a  material  environment,  ar.d 
practically  in  the  center  of  a  population 
of  three-fourths  of  a  million  of  ignorant, 
filthy  and  cruel  fanatics,  lives  the  little 
European  colony,  clustering  for  decency 
and  safety  rx)und  >he  various  foreign  le- 
gations. Counting  a  few  missionaries  and 
others  who.se  vocations  compel  them  to 
live  i.solated  amom;  the  natives,  the  alien 
population  will  add  up  to  about  500  souls. 

Legation  street  has  a  macadamized  sur- 
face, laid  down  within  the  last  year.  This 
Is  tlie  only  piece  of  European  made  road 
In  the  city.  Even  here  there  Is  no  public 
lighting  to  guide  the  wayfarer  after  night- 
fall, when  the  usual  landmarks  fail  him. 
It  was  proposed  to  have  Instailatlons  of 
electric  light  in  tie  German  and  Unittd 
States  legations,  but  the  proposal  was  niv-t 
with  insurmountab  e  opposition,  as  it  was 
thought  that  the  toilers  were  to  be  used 
in  the  preparation  of  Chinese  babies  for 
European  dinner  tables.  The  legations  are 
scattered  along  about  two-thirds  of  a 
mile  of  the  street,  and  consist  of  Ciiinose 
buildings,  modified  to  suit  the  needs  of 
civilized  life,  which  stand  in  conii>ound» 
inclosed  i<y  low  brick  walls. 

In  the  same  strett  is  the  only  Europpnn 
building  in  P-  kin,  the  new  premises  ui  ;lu: 
Hong  Kong  and  Slanghai  bank,  a  three- 
story  structure  in  the  Scotch  b.ironlal 
style.  The  premises  of  the  Imperial  Mari- 
time customs,  with  Sir  Robert  Harts  res- 
idence, are  in  the  immediate  neighborhood. 
In  few,  If  any  case^,  are  the  legations  ac- 
tually contiguous,  either  Chinese  tene- 
ments or  other  European  premises  Inter- 
vening between  thtm. 

The  British  legation,  as  remarked  above, 
is  not  placed  in  Legation  street,  from 
which  !t  is  distant  about  200  yards.  The 
compound,  howeve*.  which  Is  .some  three 
acres  in  extent,  backs  on  to  the  Mongol 
market,  an  open  space,  on  which  the 
grounds  of  the  Russian  legation  also  abut. 
The  quarters  of  ou-  minister  are  certainly 
the  most  extensive  and  probably  the  most 
defensible  of  the  lot.  Formerly  the  palace 
of  a  Manchu  prince,  the  premises  have 
lent  themselves  admirably  to  their  present 
uses.  Within  the  Inclosure  stands  the 
minister's  reception  rooms  and  residence. 
which  are  constituted  by  what  was  for- 
merly the  palace,  and  separate  Iiouspe 
arc-  provided  for  tie  first  and  second  sec- 
retaries, the  Chinese  scribes,  the  physi- 
cian and  the  accoiintant.  There  are  also 
the  chancellerv,  the  library,  the  quarters 
and  mess  of  the  student  Interoretera.  th** 
armory,  the  dlspersary  ard  t^<■  fi 
tlon.  lawn  tennis  and  five  Courts  and  a 
bowling  alley.  In  ;ase  of  a  concentration 
of  Europeans  to  more  effectually  repel 
an  assault  by  the  Pekinese  rabble  it 
would  probably  b»  the  British  legation 
which  WDttld  be  (bosen  as  the  general 
place  o(  refuge.

THE  DOOLBY  AUTIVLES. 

The  Herald  recently  purchased  the  ex- 
clusive right  to  publish  the  famous 
Dooley  articles  in  Duluth,  and  they  ap- 
pear regularly  in  the  Saturday  edition. 
Any  person  who  has  read  one  of  these 
extremely  humorous  articles  will  l)e 
anxious  to  read  the  others.  No  other 
humorous  writings  of  the  present  day 
have  such  widespread  popularity,  and 
The  Herald  considers  itself  fortunate  in 
securing  the  exclusive  right  of  publica- 
tion for  this  section  of  the  country. 

The  article  that  will  appear  in  Th? 
i^aturday  Herald  tomorrow  i.<?  entitled 
"Mr.  Dooley's  Compliments  to  Mr.  Wu," 
and  it  is  written  in  the  author's  he.-^t 
style,  presenting,  in  a  most  amu.sing 
light,  the  recent  action  of  the  Chine.se 
minister  at  Washington  in  securing  di- 
rcet  advices  from  Pekin.  No  one_should

It  is  announced  that  Comptroller 
Coler  of  New  York  is  again  on  the  war- 
path. Thi.s  time  the  asphalt  trust  is  the 
object  of  hi.s  attention.  He  demands  the 
names  of  all  interested  in  the  concern 
l>eft»re  any  new  paving  contracts  are 
awarded  to  it.  Mr.  Coler  believes  a 
number  of  city  officials  are  largely  in- 
terested in  the  asphalt  combination,  and 
that  contracts  awarded  to  them  would 
be  in  violation  of  law.  So  he  demands 
the  facts. 

New  York  Is  fortunate  in  having  a 
man  of  Mr.  Coler's  character  at  the  head 
of  the  accounting  department  of  the  city 
government,  .says  the  Pittsburg  Des- 
patch. He  has  stopped  a  number  of  bold 
jobs.  New  York  was  fortunate,  some 
years  ago,  in  having  Col.  George  E. 
Waring  at  the  head  of  the  street  clean- 
ing department.  The  whole  country  ha*? 
shared  the  good  fortune  of  New  York 
in  the  possession  of  these  men,  for  they 
have  set  examples  worthy  to  be  fol- 
lowed. They  have  proved  the  amount 
of  good  that  can  flow  from  even  one  good 
man  in  office  with  an  indifferent  to  bad 
administration  surrounding  him.

splendid  climate  and  drink  in  the  beauties 
of  some  of  the  grandest   natural   scenery 
on    the   continent.     The    tide    of   summer 
travel  has  set  in  strongly  in  this  direction, 
and  never  before  has  Duluth  had  so  many 
summer  visitors.     A   fir-Jt-class      summer 
hotel    would   be  a  pa.ving  Investment   and 
would  induce  many  visitors  who  now  stay

a   large  excursion  from  Sioux  City.  Sioux

main in  the  city  until  Sunday  night,  which 
will  give  them  ample  lime  to  visit  all  the 
attractive   places  around   the  head  of   the

a   regatta  by   the   Duluth   and       Superior

the  life-saving  station  will  give  an  exhibit 
of  their  work.     Four  boats  and  nine  men 
will  take  part  in  the  drill,  which  will  in- 
clude   capsizings    and    rescues    and    other 
features  as   interesting   lo  local   residents

excursions  on   the  bay   and    lake   and   up

In  Africa.  The  latest  incident  is  in  connec-

some  four  years  ago  by  the  British  gov- 
ernment to  connect  the  East  Coast  with 
its  possessions  in  Central  Africa,  acquired 
from  a  chartered  company  which  was 
only  too  ready  to  relinquish  its  responsi- 
bilities. The  line  was  to  be  670  miles  long 
and  to  cost  £3,000.(JOO.  Both  estimates.  It 
now  transpires,  were  the  purest  guess- 
work, as  a  great  portion  of  the  route

prove  a  commercial  success.  Careful  in-

of  the  Democrats  to  make  lower  and 
equal  taxation  one  of  the  leading  issue.s 
of  the  campaign,  and  upon  this  issue 
they  will  undoubtedly  gain  the  support 
of  many  Republicans  who  have  become 
disgusted  with  the  extravagance  and 
corruption  of  the  pre.sent  Republican 
administration.  The  scandal  In  con- 
nection with  the  purchase  of  military 
supplies,  including:  the  indictment  and 
trial  of  Republican  officials  for  receiv- 
ing bribes  and  swindling  the  state  out 
of  thousands  of  dollars,  must  play  a 
prominent  part  in  the  campaign. 

The  next  legislature  may  be  Demo- 
cratic. In  Detroit,  Mr.  Maybury  is 
certain  to  poll  an  enormous  vote,  and 
his  strength  may  be  the  means  of  elect- 
ing a  dozen  Democrats  to  the  legisla- 
ture from  that  city.  It  is  believed  he 
will  strengthen  the  ticket  in  nearly 
every  legislative  district  in  the  state. 
The  effect  of  his  candidacy  is  also  likely 
to  be  felt  in  the  congressional  districts. 
All  the  twelve  congressmen  now  are 
Republicans,  but  there  should  be  a  good 
chance  of  the  Democratic  candidates 
being  successful  in  at  least  the  First, 
Second,  Third  and  Eighth  districts. 
Daniel  J.  Campau,  who  has  been  elected 
chairman  of  the  state  central  committee, 
is  an  excellent  organizer  and  can  put  up 
a  strong  fight.  Mr.  Campau  has  been 
mentioned  as  likely  to  be  the  real  man- 
ager of  the  Democratic  presidential 
campaign,  in  which  event  he  would  no 
doubt  turn  over  the  conduct  of  the  state 
campaign  to  one  of  his  lieutenants,  but 
would  still  be  al)le  to  give  the  state  com- 
mittee the  benefit  of  his  advice.

TME  MICUItwAX  VAMPAmX. 

The  nomination  of  William  C.  May- 
bury  of  Detroit,  for  governor,  made  by 
acclamation  by  the  Michigan  Demo- 
cratic convention,  means  that  there  will 
be  one  of  the  warmest  political  cam- 
paigns ever  seen  in  the  Wolverine  state. 
From  the  present  outlook,  there  is  rea- 
son to  believe  that  Mr.  Maybury  may 
be  elected.  It  is  a  long  time  ."since 
Michigan  has  had  a  Democratic  gover- 
nor, but  the  signs  of  the  times  are 
certainly  quite  favorable  for  the  elec- 
tion of  one  this  year.  One  thing  seems 
to  be  generally  conceded  now,  and  that 
is  that  Mr.  Maybury  will  poll  the  big- 
gest vote  that  any  Democrat  ever  polled 
in  Michigan.  Of  course  this  may  not 
mean  his  election,  because  the  total 
vote  of  the  state  has  greatly  increased 
since  the  state  went  Democratic  and 
in  1898  the  Republican  candidate  for 
governor  had  75,000  plurality,  and  a 
solid  Republican  delegation  to  congress 
was  elected.  It  must  be  remembered, 
however,  that  Mr.  Pingree  was  the  Re- 
publican candidate  for  governor  in  1898, 
and  he  received  the  votes  of  many  men 
who  thought  he  was  a  good  enough 
Democrat  for  them.  Pingree  is  not  in 
the  race  this  year,  and  if  he  were  he 
would  certainly  not  receive  many  Dem- 
ocratic votes  in  view  of  his  record  dur- 
ing the  term  he  Is  now  closing. 

It  is  asserted  that  Mr.  Maybury's 
nomination  means  a  united  Democratic 
party  in  the  state  this  fall — something 
that  has  not  happened  for  eight  years 
or  more.  The  regular  Democrats  will 
support  him  to  a  man.  There  is  hardly 
a  "gold  Democrat"  who  will  not  vote  for 
him,  while  he  will  draw  a  large  vote 
from  the  other  side  of  the  political 
fence.  There  are  thousands  of  Repub- 
licans who  are  disgusted  with  the  in- 
fluences that  dominated  the  Republican 
state  convention  and  brought  about 
the  nomination  of  Col.  A.  T.  Bliss,  who 
is  a  representative  of  the  element  In  po- 
litical life  that  places  "the  dollar  above 
the  man."  Col.  Bliss  owes  his  nomina- 
tion as  the  Republican  candidate  for 
governor  solely  to  his  wealth.  The  pri- 
mary caucu.ses  and  county  conventions 
of  the  Republican  party  were  marked 
by  wholesale  corruption.  Money  was 
used  freely,  and  the  nomination  went  to 
the  highest  bidder.  It  is  not  surprising 
that  thousands  of  honest,  self-respect- 
ing Republicans  refuse  to  vote  for  Bliss 
and  will  support  the  Democratic  candi- 
date in  the  hope  of  purifying  their  own 
party.  With  a  clean  and  able  man  like 
Mayor  Maybury  at  the  head  of  the 
Democratic  ticket,  the  number  of  Re- 
publicans who  will  bolt  their  party's 
nomination  will  be  greatly  increased. 
As  mayor  of  Detroit  for  two  terms,  Mr. 
Maybury  has  made  a  splendid  record 
and  there  is  no  doubt  that  he  would  fill 
the  governorship  with  the  same  ability 
and  fidelity  to  the  public  interests. 

The  record  of  the  Republican  legis- 
lature and  certain  officials  appointed  by 
Governor  Pingree  has  furnished  the 
Democrats  with  strong  campaign  ma- 
terial, which  can  be  used  effectively  in 
conjunction  with  the  scandalous 
methods  employed  to  bring  about  the 
nomination  of  Col.  Bliss.  The  Republi- 
can legislatures  have  been  notoriously 
under  the  control  of  the  corporations 
that  seek  to  avoid  their  fair  and  just 
share  of  the  taxation,  and  the  Demo- 
cratic platform  properly  denounces  the 
last  legislature  as  "the  crowning  in- 
famy in  th»  history  of  the  Republican 


The  president  of  the  Ohio  State  Bar  as- 
sociation. Judge  H.  A.  Laubie,  devoted  his 
annual  address  before  the  association, 
recently,  to  a  vigorous  attack  on  the  ad- 
ministration's policy  of  imperialism,  it 
stirred  up  a  good  deal  of  feeling  among 
the  lawyers  present,  an<l  may  residt,  it  is 
said.  In  the  disruption  of  the  association. 
Judge  Laubie  l.s  a  Republican,  it  appears, 
and  the  partisans  of  the  administration 
are  trying  to  attribute  his  course  to  per- 
sonal pique.  It  seems  that  Judge  Laubie 
was  an  unsuccessful  candidate  for  the  Re- 
publican nomination  for  congress  some 
twenty  years  ago  in  McKInley's  district, 
when  the  latter  was  nominated.  But  hun- 
dreds of  thousands  of  Republicans  who 
never  sought  a.  nomination  against  Mr. 
McKlnley  are  warmly  opposed  to  his  pol- 
icy of  comiuest,  and  it  is  possible  Judjje 
Laubie  stands  on  the  saipe  broad,  imper- 
sonal grounds. 

The  political  reporter  of  the  Minneapolis 
Tribune  found  two  more  cx-Democrals 
who  say  they  will  vote  for  McKlnley  this 
year.  One  Is  Henry  F.  Greene,  who  voted 
the  same  way  four  years  ago,  and  who 
recently  declan-d  at  a  I'nity  club  meeting 
that  President  McKinley  has  no  more 
backbone  than  a  jellyfish,  and  the  other 
is  Wilson  G.  Crosby,  who  was  a  Palmer 
and  Buckner  elector  in  1S%.  It  is  surpris- 
ing to  see  men  of  ordinary  good  sense  sii 
mi.sguided  a.s  to  support  the  party  of 
trusts  and  Impf'rlallsm.  but  happily  there 
are  scores  of  Republicans  who  have  de- 
cided to  vote  the  Democratic  ticket  thi.i 
year  for  the  first  time  and  their  votes  will 
more  than  off  .set  the  votes  of  Messrs. 
Greene  and  Crosby. 


Mr.  McKinley  is  still  the  subject  of  much 
heated  division  in  the  Methodist  church. 
Mr.  Farson,  the  Chicago  banker,  attending 
a  state  convention  of  the  Epworth  league 
for  Illinois,  offered  a  motion  that  a  tele- 
gram of  greetings  be  sent  to  "that  loyal 
Methodiest  and  noble  statesman,  William 
McKlnley."  Shouts  of  "He  is  not  a  loyal 
Methodist"  greeted  this,  and  ministers  and 
others  rose  to  speak  against  the  motion 
and  against  the  president.  The  motion 
was  finally  tabled,  with  only  Mr.  Farson 
opposing. 

A  Chicago  Chinaman,  being  weary  of  the 
blissful  state  of  matrimony,  appeared  be- 
fore a  judge  recently,  petitioning  to  he 
unhitched  by  the  Chicago  process.  The 
judge  asked  him  on  what  grounds  he  de- 
sired single  blessedness,  and  Johnnie,  with 
a  grin,  only  said:  "Allee  samee  'Melican 
man,"  with  the  explanatory  statement 
that  he  wasn't  aware  that  any  cause  was 
needed  in  Chicago.

bilities of  self-government. 

It  is  the  opinion  of  an  exchange  that 
one  of  the  saddest  things  about  a  national 
campaign  is  the  eagerness  of  men,  who  are 
otherwise  sensible,  to  proclaim  to  the 
world  that  they  have  "changed"  since 
the  last  election.  Possibly  it  is  their  only 
chance  to  get  their  names  in  the  newspa-

Tile  line  between  children  that  should

should  not  Is  sharply  drawn  in  flguies. 
but  in  practice  it  Is  very  indistinct,  and  it 
gives  rise  to  much  confusion  and  not  a 
little  grief.  The  experience  of  those  accus- 
tomed to  such  things  is  that  It  is  always 
a  shock  to  parents  when  they  find  that 
their  children  are  old  enough  to  pay  fare, 
and  they  fight  oft  the  time  as  long  as  Ihey 
can.  A  general  Impression  is  that  child- 
ren that  may  be  carried  In  arms  are 
young  enough  to  escape  paying  fare,  and 
this  leads  to  the  spectacle  of  a  small  ard 
retiring  father  bearing  in  arms  a  large  an.1 
strenuous  child,  whose  legs  and  arms 
sprawl  wildly  in  ail  directions  like  an 
overgrown  spider.  This  is  not  an  uncom- 
mon sight.

Some  time  .igo  a  woman  and  a  child 
were  In  a  Superior  street  car  going  e^asl, 
and  at  Second  avenue  east,  when  the  con- 
ductor started  in  his  fare-collecting  round, 
there  was  an  altercation  between  him  and 
the  woman  as  to  whether  the  child  was  old 
enough  for  a  fare.  The  conductor  was  ni 
the  right,  and  lie  stuck  to  it  that  the 
woman  must  jiay  far«^  for  the  child,  but 
she  refused.  The  conductor  announced 
thiit  unless  the  fare  was  forthcoming  the 
party  must  alight,  and  when  the  woman 
stuck  to  her  refusal  he  pulled  the  bell 
cord  and  the  car  stopped.  Then  there  was 
another  altercation,  during  which  the 
car   waited. 

"Hold  on  here."  called  out  a  large  and 
determined  looking  man  across  the  alsU; 
from  the  woman.  "I  am  in  a  hurry  to  get 
along.  To  stop  this  row  and  get  the  car 
moving  I'll  pay  that  fare,"  and  he  handed 
out  a  nickel. 

Greatly  to  the  disgust  of  the  passengers, 
the  woman  accepted  the  situation  un- 
blushnigly,  and  the  car  moved  on. 

*  *    * 

During  the  rains  that  continued  for  sev- 
eral weeks  early  this  month  another  in- 
stance of  this  kind  occurred.  A  woman 
wa;s  on  the  car  with  three  children,  and  the 
conductor  insisted  on  the  payment  of  fares 
for  two  of  them. and  the  woman  objected. 
It  was  raining  pitchforks  outside,  and  the 
car  was  some  distance  from  an>"where. 
But  rather  than  vield  her  ground  the  wo- 
man permitted  the  conductor  to  stop  the 
car  and  put  her  and  the  three  children  off, 
and  they  started  off  mi.«erably  in  the 
drenching  rain.

Some  time  ago  the  Rounder  ventured  a 
hesitating  prophce.v  to  the  effect  that  the 
dandelions  that  have  triumphantly  lorded 
it  over  Duluth  lawns  for  several  years 
were  nearing  their  end.  That  was  in  the 
time  of  most  vigorous  bloom,  and  the  out- 
look was  only  slight.  Now.  however,  the 
prophecy  is  renewed,  and  to  it  is  added  the 
assertion  that  while  there  will  be  dande- 
lions in  Duluth  next  year  they  will  be  in 
very  small  numl'ers  and  that  lawns  that 
have  had  a  run  of  them  will  have  a  rest. 
On  many  lawns  that  have  been  overrun 
with  them  there  were  none  this  .vear,  ow- 
ing to  the  fact  that  they  have  run  the  soil 
out  of  the  chemicals  needed  for  their  sup- 
I)ort.  This  year's  seers  will  fall  on  inhospi- 
table ground,  therefore,  and  will  lie  dor- 
mant imtil  proper  conditions  for  their 
growth  manifest  themselves,  when  there 
ma.v  be  another  run  of  them. 

There  are  others,  however,  in  the  weed 
line.  Ragweed,  wormwood,  maywe<>d,  yar- 
rf)W,  curled  dock,  doorwoed  and  Canada 
thistles  are  rampant  everywhere,  their 
rank  growths  rivalling  fences  in  height 
and  crowding  out  less  hardy  plants.  None 
of  these  bother  lawns  much,  however,  and 
If  they  do,  they  are  easily  removed.  The 
only  other  plant  that  interferes  much  with 
lawns  is  the  common  plantain,  which  is 
al.so  plentifid.

Jones— Yes,  but  there  is  one  thing  in

Smith— I'd  like  to  know  what  it  Is. 

Jones— A  shallow  man  doesn't  require  as 
much   watching  as  a  deep  one.

"You  look  pleased." 

"Yes;  she'll  have  to  admit  she  has  found

Deacon  Goode— He  has  brought  about  a

The  people  of  Duluth,  with  its  glorious

It  is  explained  that  the  French  soldiers 
who  fled  before  the  Boxers  at  Tien  Tsin 
were  native  soldiers  of  Annam,  one  of  the

Are  the  Chinese  Boxers  much  worse

St.  Paul  Dispatch:  Lord  Salisbury 
said  the  other  day  that  the  cause  of  the 
troubles  in  China  was  the  missionaries. 
The  imperial  edict  of  the  Chinese  em- 
peror of  July  17  says:  "The  present  con- 
flict between  China  and  the  foreign  pow- 
ers had  its  origin  in  the  long-standing 
antagonism  between  the  people  and  the 
Christian  missions."  Rev.  Henry  King- 
man, until  I'ecently  a  missionary  at 
Tung  Cho,  near  Pekin,  in  a  paper  in  the 
Congregationalist,  admits  that  the  na- 
tives have  been  exasperated  by  the 
methods  of  some  of  the  missionaries. 
Rev.  Dr.  A.  Woodruff  Hal.sey.  secretary 
of  the  Presbyterian  board  of  foreign 
missions,  says:  "The  missionary  has  his 
share  in  fomenting  the  troubles,  and 
mut  Ijear  his  share  of  the  blame."  Rev. 
Robert  S.  MacArthur,  a  Baptist  minis- 
ter, says:  "Doubtless  some  missionaries 
are  largely  responsible  for  the  present 
uprising  in  China."

The  **July  Clearance  Sale/'  which  we  Inaugurated 
SIX  days  ago,  has  proved  to  be  the  most  successful  we 
ever  attempted.  At  that  time  we  said  this  sale  was  not 
to  be  a  '*Hit-or-Miss"  affair,  but  a  genuine  clearance 
sale  that  had  a  fixed  purpose  back  of  it.  We  told  of 
the  bargains  we  were  to  give  each  day.  We  kept  our 
word  and  as  a  result  the  people  responded  by  the 
thousands.  Next  Tuesday  night  will  wind  up  this  sale. 
Remember,  only  three  days  more — Saturday,  Monday 
and  Tuesday. 

Price  cutting  is  the  attraction — everything  in  the 
store  from  a  spool  of  Cotton  to  a  Black  Silk  Dress 
comes  under  the  stroke  of  the  knife. 

We  invite  the  ladies  of  Duluth  to  our  store — espe- 
cially tomorrow.  We  have  awful  good  things  that  you 
want  at  hammered  down  prices.  The  prices  we  quote 
are  always  the  lowest.  We  find  that  the  policy  of  sell- 
ing cheaper  than  our  competitors  is  a  magnet  which 
never  fails  to  bring  people  to  our  store. 

The  sooner  you  come  tomorrow  the  better  for  your- 
self. You'll  have  first  pick.  Come  as  early  as  you 
can,  but  be  sure  to  come  some  time  and  see  ''a  business

I      THE  FAIR.     I 


ROOSEVELT  THE^ RIDICULOUS. 

Washington  Post:  In  times  past  we 
have  had  inany  amusing  persons  in  our 
Ix.lUical  vva^s.  Doth  of  the  gr°at  parties 
have  given  of  their  wittiest  and  lunnicii. 
There  have  been  jesters,  clowns  and 
mountebanks  beyond  computation.  But 
no  one  like  Roosevelt  has  ever  yet  fig- 
ured at  the  front.  He  surpasses  all  the 
merrymakers  of  history,  and  what 
makes  his  achievement  so  irresistibly 
delicious  is  the  glaring:  fact  that  he 
does  not  intend  or  even  .suspect  it  in 
the  very  least.  The  lamented  Burton 
and  the  venerable  Jefferson  realized  tlio 
excruciating  effect  of  solemnity  on  the 
part  of  the  comedian.  They  knew  how 
to  tlirow  their  audiences  into  convul- 
.sions  of  delight.  They  were  great  in 
their  day  and  generation,  but  never 
half  as  funny  as  Roosevelt  is  in  his, 
for  their  solemnity  was  artificial,  while 
his  is  as  genuine  as  the  maiden's  artless 
blush  or  the  college  graduate's  profound 
conviction  that  he  has  swallowed  and 
assimilated  the  whole  sum  of  human 
sapience. 

Roosevelt  is  much  more  enjoyable  no'.v 
than  he  was  two  years  ago.  Then  it  wa^ 
conceivable  that  he  might  be  the  victim 
of  a  perfectly  natural  delu.sion.  He  had 
no  experience  of  war.  He  had  never 
seen  an  army  in  the  field.  He  knew  ab- 
solutely nothing  of  military  matters. 
Plunged  suddenly  into  a  bewildering  up- 
roar and  confusion,  why  should  he  not 
have  thought  himself  the  central  figure 
of  if  all?  Finding  that  a  swift  and 
conclusive  victory  had  been  achieved, 
whv  should  he  assume  that  he  had  not 
achieved  it?  He  knew  that  he  had  been 
cavorting  and  shouting  from  start  to 
finish.  Nobody  had  made  more  noise  or 
jumped  up  and  down  with  greater  zeai. 
He  was  the  onlv  man  who  had  lost  hi.s 
regiment,  vaulted  wire  fences  and  sal- 
loped  about  until  he  didn't  know  where 
he  was.  Why  should  not  a  person  of 
Roosevelt's  peculiar  turn  of  mind  con- 
ceive the  idea  that  he  was  "it"  all 
through?  He  both  amused  and  grieved 
us  then.  We  alternately  pitied  and  de- 
rided him,  thought  we  understood 
his  innocent  hallucinations,  and  we  felt 
both  merriment  and  sorrow.  Roose- 
velt was  a  very  different  proposition  m 
1S98 

Biit  Roosevelt  is  simply  ridiculous  now. 
There  is  no  excuse  for  his  absurd  and 
impudent  preten.sions.  It  is  no  long'.'r 
possible  to  overlook  his  ignorant  conceit. 
There  was  a  time,  as  we  have  said,  when 
these  were  both  pathetic  and  amusing. 
That  time  has  passed.  Everybody  now 
knows  that  Roosevelt  did  not  capture 
San  Juan  hill.  Everybody  know^s  that  ho 
was  not  even  there  until  the  hill  had 
been  captured  by  others. 

A  careful  reading  of  his  own  book, 
"Alone  in  Cuba."  shows  this,  for  ne  tells 
how  "he"  took  Kettle  hill  by  assault  and 
then  watched  Kent's  men.  as  they  at 
last,  after  eight  hours,  crawled  up  San 
Juan  and  drove  the  enemy  from  the 
blockhouse  and  the  trenches.  That  t;:e 
Rough  Riders  were  subsequently  or- 
dered to  join  the  main  body  and  to  at- 
tack the  Spaniards  who  had  fallen  back 
on  San  Juan  "ridge,"  is  trite  enough. 
But  the  preposterous  proposition  that  ne 
and  his  Rough  Riders  led  the  charge  on 
San  Juan  hill,  or  had  anything  to  do  with 
that  engagement,  strictly  speaking,  is 
the  jest  of  every  army  officer  that  tooK 
part,  and  is  belied  by  Roosevelt  himself 
in  his  so-called  "history." 

And  here  is  the  exquisite  humor  of  tne 
situation.  Roosevelt  has  been  nominated 
for  the  vice  presidency  in  his  character 
as  "the  hero  of  San  Juan  hill." 

Another  Traitor  Exposed. 

Chicago  Chronicle:  Mr.  Chandler.  of 
New  Hampshire,  has  taken  occasion  cas- 
uallv  to  remark  that  the  anti-trust  plank 
in  the  PhUadelphia  platform  has  not  ap- 
parently attracted  the  attention  of  Mr. 
Griggs.  This  is  a  nasty  slap  which  indi- 
cates that  Mr.  Chandler  is  a  traitor  and 
copperhead. 


THE  REAL  MOWBOE  DOCTRINE. 

New  York  World:  When  President 
Monroe  was  considering  the  papers  sent 
from  our  then  minister  to  England,  Mr. 
Rush,  as  to  the  meiitated  intervention  of 
the  continental  monarchies  of  Europe  to 
restore  to  Spain  her  lost  American  colo- 
nies, he  wrote  to  ex-President  JefCersjii 
and  asked  for  his  advice.  Mr.  Jefferson 
gave  it  in  a  letter  which  was  really  a 
nrst  draft  of  the  .VIonroe  doctrine  as  it 
appeared  shortly  afterwanl  in  President 
Monroe's  celebrated  message.  And  this 
was  Mr.  Jefterson  ^  definition  of  its  two 
vital  points: 

Our  first  and  fundamental  maxim 
should  be  never  to  entangle  ourselves  in 
the  broils  of  Europe. 

(Jur  second,  neve  to  suffer  Europe  to 
intermeddle    with   cis-Atlantic    affairs. 

President  Monroe's  message  was  only 
an  ample  elaboration  of  the.se  two  "fun- 
damental maxims.'  It  is  important  to 
observe  that  Mr.  J^fterson  puts  first  and 
foremost  the  maxim  "never  to  fjntang.e 
ourselves  in  the  broils  of  Europe."  'lins 
was  the  solid  basii  on  which  he  rested 
the  second  maxim,  "never  to  suffer  Eu- 
rope to  Intermeddle  with  cis-Atlantic  at- 
fairs."  , 

The  policv  of  i^siatic  adventure  and 
"friendiv  underst.'.nding"  with  Great 
Britain  leads  straigHt  on  to  our  entangle- 
ment "in  the  broils  of  Europe."  And 
when  the  first  max  m  of  the  Monroe  doc- 
trine is  broken  th"  second  will  lose  us 
strongest  moral  an  i  logical  foundation. 

How  can  we  justify  or  reasonably  claim 
exclusive  rights  in  one  half  of  the  world 
and  intrusive  right:;  in  the  other  half  at 
the  isamc  time? 

One  Spefiff4!  Eletlge. 

New  York  World:  If  congress  had  never 
made  the  specific  pedge  that  Cuba  tiliould 
be  free  and  indeij^'ndent  we  would  still 
have  been  specific.illv  pledged  to  thai 
policy.  The  Declaiation  of  Independence 
is  our  specific  pledge  for  all  time  to  the 
principles  of  self-government  and  against 
what  Mr.  McKinley  so  aptly  called  "crim- 
inal aggression." 

Evidence  of  P  ronperity. 

New  York  Journai:  Sir.  Carnegie's  indi- 
vidual Income  from  hts  steel  works  is 
greater  than  the  ccmbfcned  incomes  of  all 
the  workmen  in  his  emyiloy. 

How  to  Tell  'Em. 

Chicago  Record:  Doubtful  states  are 
those  that  did  not  east,  their  vote  for  Mc- 
Kinlev  four  vears  ago  if  you  are  a  Repub- 
lican, and  those  that  did  not  go  for  Bryan 
If  you  are  a  Democrat- 

Something  That  Hurts. 

Pittsburg  Post:  Webster  Davis  will  bo 
heard  in  many  stat-^s  this  fall.  McKlnley 
could  have  better  spared  a  regiment  of 
average  Republican  stumpers  than  this 
one  man. 

After  the  Labor  Vote. 

New  York  Evening  Post:  If  a  little 
sniveling  will  suffice  to  turn  a  few  votes 
into  the  proper  chrnnel.  why  should  Mr. 
Powderly,  of  all  m  ;n  in  the  world,  hefsi- 
tate  to  do  his  duty'; 


GREAT  SPORTING  CLUB. 

The  stocking  of  hundreds  of  miles  of 
new  salmon  rivers  in  Northern  Canada, 
within  easy  reach  of  railway  and  steam.- 
boat  communicatior  ,  is  part  of  the  scheme 
undertaken  by  an  eiormous  fish  and  game 
club  composed  of  American,  English  and 
Canadian  sportsmen,  says  a  Quebec  cor- 
respondent of  the  New  York  Sun.  The 
old-time  science  of  fish  culture,  as  prac- 
ticed by  the  ancient  Egyptians  and  Ro- 
mans, has  been  brought  to  such  a  high 
condition  of  perfecrtion,  that  no  doubts 
are  entertained  as  to  the  success  of  th& 
task  undertaken  by  the  Roberval  Fish  and 
Game  association,  'vhich  it  may  incident- 
all  v  be  mentioned  Is  to  be  the  largest 
and  most  Important  fish  and  game  club 
in  the  world.  The  immense  area  of  fish- 
ing and  hunting  controlled  by  this  club, 
extending  over  thirty  thousand  square 
miles  of  territory,  chough  it  includes  the 
best  ouananiche  fishing  and  most  of  the 
best  trout  fishing  in  the  world,  is  not 
nearly  of  so  much  Importance  to  its  mem- 
bers "as  is  the  new  project  of  turning  so 
much  of  its  river  mileage  into  salmon 
streams. 

There  are  now  virtually  no  more  good 
salmon  rivers,  accessible  to  anglers.  In 
either  Canada  or  the  United  States,  and 
enormous  prices  have  to  be  paid  by 
anglers  for  the  privileges  of  ealmon  flali-. 


Ing.  For  a  few  miles  of  fishing  in  toe 
Moisic  river,  where  Mr.  Toland  and  parly 
of  Philadelphia  are  now  angling  for  sal- 
mon, the  sum  of  $.30,000  was  recently  paid 
bv  a  couple  of  sportsmen  to  a  riparian 
proprietor,  who.se  dtle  to  the  fishing  is 
contested  bv  the  governm?nt.  Mr.  Cabot, 
of  Boston,  "has  had  an  offer  and  has  de- 
clined the  sum  of  5»».000  for  his  salmon 
fishing  rights  on  the  Graud  river  in  Gaspe. 
James  Hill,  the  St.  Paul  railway  magnate, 
pavs  $35()i»  a  year  to  tho  government  of 
Quebec  for  the  lea.se  of  the  fishing  In  the 
St.  John  river  on  the  coa,«t  of  Canadian 
Labrador,  and  W.  H.  de  Forrest,  of  New 
York,  and  a  party  of  friemls  gladly  pay 
the  same  government  5^V»  a  year  for  pait 
of  the  fishing  in  the  Cascap<?dia.  One  or 
two  pools  in  the  Retttigouche  river  have 
changed  hands  at  $:i:.,<H».  and  single  mem- 
bership shares  in  tho  Restigouchc  Salavtu 
club  could  not  now  be.  obtained  for  le.<.^ 
than  $7000  to  $10,000.  th«?  share  presented 
some  time  ago  to  the  Ricv.  Dr.  Ralnsforu. 
of  New  York,  having-  c.ost  %7rm. 

The  members  of  the  new  association, 
which  includes  many  of  the  best-known 
.sportsmen  on  the  cointln<int.  count  upon  a 
good  return  from  their  investment,  m 
addition  to  the  sport  tirat  they  will  enjoy, 
and  it  is  only  on  account  of  the  enormous 
outlav  tindertaken  by  ijum  for  the  pro- 
tection of  fish  and  game,  establishment  of 
hatcheries,  stocking  of  'raters  and  parks, 
etc..  that  they  have  succeeded  in  secyi'ing 
control  from  the  govern  ment  of  so  enor- 
mous a  territory.  The  ri\«^rs  in  which  tho 
voung  sea  salmon  are  nclw  being  planted 
empty  themselves  into  l>ake  St.  John, 
which  is  in  turn  drained  1  ly  the  Sagiu-na.v- 
The  chief  of  these  streams  are  the  Ashaup- 
mourhouan,  the  Perlbouariiv  and  the  Mis- 
tassini  with  their  lmport.i.nt  tributarieh. 
Tho  Ashaupmouchouan  is  *Jvcr  300  miles 
long,  the  Mistassinl  over  2.tO  and  the  Peri- 
bouaca  over  400.  Together  w.  th  scores  of 
their  tributaries  they  are  all  itleal  streams 
for  salmon,  and  though  easdl>-  accessible 
in  their  lower  stretches,  the  lakes  that 
form  thoir  headwaters  are  hidden  from 
the  view  of  civilized  man  in  the,  reces.s.s 
of  tho.se  dense  forests,  stretchinjT  north- 
ward toward  the  polo,  that  are  known 
onlv  to  the  Montagnais  and  Nasea,'>ee  lii- 
dialis  who  hunt  the  interior  of  the  great 
Labrador  peninsula. 

HAIR  BRUSHING. 

The  thing  I  like  to  impress  upon  th<» 
public  is  the  vital  importance  of  clean 
hai.t  brushes,  says  a  scalp  specialist.  Th« 
condition  of  the  average  hair  brush  is 
simplv  disgraceful  and  makes  it  a  per- 
fect ".Tiass  of  infection.  The  liru.-li 
should  be  washed  every  week,  and 
washing  isn't  enough.  It  should  be  tho- 
niughly  tflterilized  at  least  twice  a  month. 
All  hair  aoes  not  need  mu<"h  brushing, 
and  the  k'uid  of  brush  required  depends 
upon  the  p*"culiarities  of  the  scalp.  .V 
stiff  bru.sh  is  necessary  for  some  head.s 
and  fatal  to  others,  and  one's  brush 
should  really  )>e  prescribed  by  a  com- 
petent specialist.  Then  the  comb  should 
Qje  a  different  thing  from  the  ordinarv 
affair.  It  should  be  coarse.  A  fine  comb 
is  all  wrong.  The  teeth  should  rourul 
both  on  the  sides  and  the  ends,  so  that 
it  will  glide  smoothly  through  the  hair, 
and  there  shouldn't  be  any  comers  be- 
tween the  teeth. 

Women  keep  their  hair  better  than 
men.  In  the  first  place  there's  more  of 
it  and  their  scalps  are  better  protected: 
but  they  wear  thoir  hats  so  much  less 
than  men,  and  the  hats  when  they  ai" 
■worn  do  not  fit  the  head  so  tightly  and 
create  such  a  heat  and  moisture,  gener- 
ating poJson,  as  the  man's  hat  does. 


Have  r  not  bidden  be  beware  of  some- 
thing said  to  be  the  same  as  Rocky 
Mountain  Tea,  made  by  the  Madison 
Medicine  Co.?  If  ye  are  truly  wise, 
heed  this  warning.    Ask  your  druggist.

C.  W.  Ericson, 


Reliable  Clothier. 


August  1  is  the  date  upon  which  the  tcl- 
t^rraph  companies  havt-  announced  that 
there  will  be  no  more  service  of  quoiationi: 
from  the  Chicago  market  to  the  Duluth 
board  of  trade.  Up  to  the  present  time 
I  lie  Diduth  board  has  no  idea  of  how  it  is 
t;oiiij{  to  Ket  the  quotations  but  nobody  on 
the  board  is  worrying  about  it.  The  ofii- 
eers  of  the  Ixjard  are  not  the  least  bit 
alarmed  and  are  making  no  effort  to  letiru 
how  they  are  to  get  the  quotations.  They 
are  just  calmly  waitmg  as  they  will  con- 
tinue to  calmly  wrilt  until  the  quotations 
be^in  to  come. 

There  is  hardly  a  member  of  the  board 
who  does  not  feel  certain  that  the  quota- 
tions will  come  after  the  first  day  of  next 
month.  They  do  not  pretend  to  say  just 
liow  but  that  thty  will  eome  tht  y  are  eon- 
lideiit.  They  say  that  the  Chieago  board 
will  see  that  they  get  here  some  way  or 
other.  Th.'  Chieago  grain  men  gel  too 
mui-h  business  from  this  market  to  sum- 
marily cut  it  all  o(T  in  this  manner  as 
would  bn  the  result  if  the  Duluth  l>oard 
'  'Uld  not  get  quotations.  One  of  the  ofli- 
1  ers  when  asked  yesterday  what  was  be- 
ing done  about  getting  the  quotations  said; 
"Nothing,  and  vve  wont  do  anything. 
It  is  up  to  the  Chicago  board  ot  trade. 
not  to  us.  Chicago  knows  that  it  must 
t;et  those  quotations  to  us  or  lose  a  ^reat 
amount  of  business  and  they  will  do  it 
when  the  time  comes.  It  is  not  for  us  to 
worry  about  the  situation.  It  is  simply  a 
1  ase  of  where  w.-  will  let  the  other  lellow 
do  the  worrying. ■■ 

The  Duluth  market  is  one  of  the  largest 
trading  markets    in    the   country    next   to 
t'hicago.     It  is  not  as  large  a  spectdative 
market    and    at    time*    trading    is    almost 
stagnant   but   when    the   market   Is   in    its 
activ.e    period    it     absorbs     an     enormous 
amount  of  trailing.     The  amount  done  on 
;i   lively  day  here  would  run  some  of  the 
other  markets  In  much  larger  cities  wild 
while  here   it   is  easily  absorbed.    Such   a 
i  market  very  naturally  has  a  large  amount 
of  business  to  place  elsewhere  and  to  get 
this  Chicago  must  give  quotations. 
A  Chicago  report  of  yesterday  said: 
"There   was  no  apiiroach   toward   a   set- 
tlement of  the  controversy  over  qu'itations 
betwe  n   the   board  of  trade  and    the   tele- 
!  graph  companies  yesti>rday.    On  the  other 
I  hand,  there  wt-re  signs  of  preparation   by 
j  the  board  of  trade  for  a  long  war  against 
I  the   bucket  shops  ami   their  allies.     There 
uas  postf-d  f>)r  balloting,  an  amendment  to 
till-    rules,    unanimously    recommended    by 
the     tlireetors.     prescriidng     certain     fixed 
times  during   the  session  at   which   board 
of  trade  members  can  quote  market  prices, 
and  prohibiting  the  sending  of  quotations 
i    xcept  at  these  prescribed  times,     it  is  as- 
'  .-umed   on   the   floor   that    the   amendment 
:  <-onti'mplates  5-mlnute  (luotations  l\v  mem- 
.  hers    to    their    customer.-.      The    period    of 
.-ending  is   to   be   Indlcatc-d    on    the    ticker. 
1  which   is   controlled  by  the  exchange,   and 
!  the  jjenalty  of  sending  out  iiuotations  of- 
;  t-^ner   than    Indicated    Is   to   be   suspension 
■  tor  the  first  offense  and  expulsion   for  the 
'  second  offense.  The  amendment  will  come 
I  lip  for  ballot  in  10  days.  The  board  of  trade 
I  officials  do  not  propose  to  be  tht-  victims  of 
j  wire  tappers.    Instead  of  a  quotation  wire 
;  for  the  wheat  pit  to  the  ticker  oHices.  us 
at  present,  there  will  be  on  Aug.  1  no  ticker 
'  wire  at  all.  but  the  quotation  keyboard  will 
I  lie   in    the   operator's    booth    right    at    the 
I  wheat  pit.    That  will  provide  against  wire 
tappers  who  are  now  said  to  be  particular- 
ly on  the  alert.    It  leoks  as  if  the  .'situation 
lit  the  matter  of  quotations  next  Wednes^- 
dav  would  be  similar  to  that  which  existed 
in  April,  ISfn.    Then,  unoer  the  administra- 
tion of  Pr^:sident    \V.   T.   Baker  the   hoard 
of  trade  ceased  to  give  out  official  quota- 
tions and  permitted  only  ks  own  members 
to  advise  customers  as  to  the  market.   In 
that   year   there   was   even   a   prohibition 
ncainst  sending  quotations  closer  than  ^4c. 
That  condition  lasted  at  that  time  a  year 
and  a  half,  until  the  end  of  the  Baker  ad- 
ministration.    It  happened  in  that  year.  at. 
the  very  time  the  quotations  were  discon- 
tinued there  sprang  up  a  great  excitement

SOUTH  DAKOTA  CROPS. 

Wheat  Harvest  Under  Way  In  Parts 
of  the  State. 

The  rei>urt  of  the  South  Dakota  sec- 
tion of  the  crop  service  for  the  week 
ending  Monday  arrived  today  and  is  as 
follows: 

The  temperature  averaged  below  the 
normal,  with  cool  nights.  ?]xcept  in 
some  norther>i  and  Black  Hills  coun- 
ties, where  more  rain  is  needed  for 
corn,  i.otatoes,  llax,  millet  and  grass, 
the  soil  moisture  is  ample  from  rains 
of  the  prectding  week  and  fair  to  good 
rains  since.  In  some  extreme  south- 
eastern counties  the  soil  is  too  wet, 
water  stands  in  n  number  of  lowland 
tields,  dela,ving  harvest,  and  some 
wheal,  barUy.  corn  and  potatoes  are 
damaged  as  a  result  of  the  excessive 
rains,  and  some  local  hail  and  high 
wind,  of  the  preceding  week;  some  ripe 
standing  wheat  is  reported  shelling  con- 
siderably, and  apprehension  is  felt  that 
the  wet  soil  may  prevent  timely  harvest 
In  a  number  of  lowland  fields,  as  the 
straw   is   lodged. 

"Wheat  harvest  is  general  in  the 
southeastern,  and  beginning  in  the  mid- 
dle counties.  In  some  southern  locali- 
ties it  is  about  half  completed.  Good 
quality  of  grain  is  expected  generally. 
as  the  berr.v  is  plump  and  healthy,  and 
the  crop   is  maturing  nicely. 

"Rye  harvest  is  about  completed:  oat 
and  barley  harvest  is  far  advanced,  and 
completed  in  some  localities,  with  good  i 
quality  of  ^rain  expected.  The  rains 
have  discolored  some  barley  in  south- 
eastern counties.  Because  of  the  rapid 
growth  of  weeds,  conslderahU-  of  the 
poor  wheat,  oats  and  barley  have  been 
cut  for  fodder  in  a  number  nf  middle 
and  northern  localities,  and  in  the  Black 
Hills  counties. 

"Except  in  the  too  wet  southeastern 
lowland  fields  and  dry  northern  locali- 
ties, corn  and  potatoes  have  made  good 
healthy  progress,  and  in  southeastern  I 
and  middU -eastern  countie.^  the  corn 
ears  are  setting  well  in  many  fields.  In 
many  northern  counties  corn  is  in  tas- 
sel and  silking. 

"Flax  has  done  well,  but  many  field.s 
of  late  sown  in  middle  and  northern 
counties  are  reported  very  weedy." 


FEUD  OVER 
BMBALL 

Clark  and  Daly  Trouble  In 

Montana   Takes    a 

New  Turn. 


RIVALRY   IS    GREAT 


Nature    Has    Bestowed  Its 
Beauty  In  Wonderful  Meas- 
ure on  This  Spot. 


A  stranger  within  the  city's  gates 
might  wonder  why  it  is  that  all  of  the 
cars  bearing  the  words  "Lester  Park" 
on  their  front  should  be  crowded  every 
Sunday  and  every  holiday.  Such  an  in- 
quirer, however,  need  only  take  a  seat 
in  one  of  those  cars  to  have  his  wonder 
painlessly  and  pleasantly  removed. 

After  a  very  pleasant  ride  through 
varying  scenes,  the  car  plunging  through 
a  beautiful  suburb,  through  woods,  up 
hill  and  down  dale,  then  through  another 
pretty  suburb,  the  journey  stops  on  a 
bridge  over  picturesque  lister  river, 
which  is  tumbling  over  fantastical ly- 
carved  rocks  on  its  hurried  way  to  the 
lake.  Of  all  the  scenic  spots  in  and 
alxjut  Duluth,  Lester  Park,  where  the 
stranger  has  now  arrived,  is  the  largest 
and  most  beautiful.  Nature  did  wonders 
in  preparing  the  place,  and  lately  man, 
as  renresented  by  the  city  authorities, 
has  added  some  little  touches  that  have 
not  harmed  the  effect  at  all.  Nature 
unadulterated  is  a  bit  wild  and  teasins 
with  her  windfalls  and  undergrowth, 
and  the  work  of  man  has  been  confined 
to  removing  these  thorns  and  leaving  in 
their  place  a  dainty  carpet  of  grass  and 
flowers.  He  has  also  added  a  few  rustic 
seats  and  delightful  roadways,  and  the 
result  is  charming. 

Ciose  to  the  end  of  the  car  tracks  are 
the  spots  where  the  visitor  may  stay  if 
he  wishes  to  relegate  nature  to  a  second 
iilace  and  enjoy  his  outing  in  the  com- 
nany  of  his  fellows  and  many  of  them. 
There  are  all  sorts  of  contrivances  for 
amusement,  including  spacious  dancing 
pavilions  provided  with  g5od  music,  and 
the  customary  peanut  and  popcorn  and 
mild  drink  stands,  with  restaurants  and 
places  where  visitors  may  eat  their 
lunches  under  shelter.  This  portion  of 
the  park,  however,  is  only  a  small  one. 
and  if  the  stranger  wishes  to  get  more 
of  nature  and  less  of  man  fir  a  change, 
he  has  only  to  take  a  few  steps  in  almost 
any  direction,  when  he  finds  himself 
wandering  in  one  of  nature's  beauly 
spots.  Lester  river  is  divided  .here,  and 
on  either  branch  or  between  or  on  either 
side  there  are  ^n  abundance  of  si>ots 
where  it  is  delightful  to  be  at  any  time. 
There  are  charming  walks  along  the 
river  and  in  sight  of  the  sparkling  falls 
and  gnarled  old  rocks,  under  the  shade 
of  the  great  trees  and  within  the  influ- 
ence of  the  wood  flowers.  There  are 
.shady  nooks  where  the  stranger^can  rest 
in  cool  and  fragrant  bowers, 
wilder  places  where  he 
apparently  untouched 
i)rovements,  so-called.

quite  ludicrous,  an  example  of  which

It  will  be  remembered  that  during  the 
noted  state  capital  campaign  Clark,  be- 
<'ause  of  his  hatred  of  Daly,  whose  home 
city  of  Anaconda  aspired  for  that  honor, 
declared  himself  and  his  Butte  paper  for 
Helena,  and  to  this  timely  aid  the  suc- 
cess of  the  latter  was  doubtless  due. 

As  a  result  of  this  fight  there  has  been 
more  or  less  rivalry  between  Helena  and 
Anaconda.  And,  as  if  decreed  by  fate, 
when  the  Montana  Baseball  league  was 
organized  last  spring,  ttiose  cities  had 
the  two  best  clubs  which  were  contest- 
ing for  supremacy,  as  if  engaged  in  ;: 
struggle  for  life  instead  of  a  state  pen- 
nant. 

The  Clark  Democratic  convention  ad- 
journed shortly  before  noon,  and  as  Hel- 
ena and  Anaconda  were  playing  that  af- 
ternoon in  the  latter  city,  what  did  Sena- 
tor Clark  do  but  buy  a  few  thousand 
yards  of  yellow  and  red  ribbon  (the  Hel- 
ena colors),  pin  a  section  thereof  on  each 
delegate,  hire  a  special  train  and  take 
the  whole  party  t"  Helena  to  "rout"  for 
Helena. 

But  the  Dalyiles  were  not  wholly  out- 
done. Seeing  that  the  Clarkites  outnum- 
bered them,  couriers  were  sent  ud  town 
to  gather  up  the  boys,  whose  admission 
was  paid  by  a  Daly  lieutenant,  provided 
they  outhowled  the  Clarkites. 

Thus  the  game  was  an  extremely  ex- 
citing: affair,  and  the  small  boys  earned 
their  fee,  as  it  lasted  twelve  innings,  al- 
though Helena  won  out  by  a  score  of  S 
to  7. 

This,  of  course,  was  highly  pleasing  to 
the  Clark  factionists,  and  corresponding- 
ly depressing  to  the  Dalyites.  And,  fig- 
uratively speaking,  Senator  Clark  cut 
another  nick  in  the  handle  of  his  political 
revolver. 

Clark's  recent  action  in  raising  the  sal- 
ary of  his  mine  employes  in  this  city  is 
regarded  as  a  political  move,  in  that  thf 
increased  payroll  to  him  will  mean  an  in- 
slgniticant  sum,  owing  to  the  small  number 
of  men  employed,  but  to  Daly,  should  he 
meet  the  advance,  it  would  mean,  with  his 
•iOOO  miners,  hundreds  of  thousands  of  dol- 
lars annually;  and.  while  Daly  personally 
would  be  willing  to  meet  the  advance,  it 
is  anticipated  the  ?:astern  majority  stock- 
holders rare  more  for  dividends  than 
Montana  politics,  and  will  thus  preclude 
a  similar  advance. 

And  as  Butte  is  the  Mecca  of  union  la- 
bor, where  even  the  bootblack.s  and  dish- 
washers are  organized,  it  is  believeu 
Clark  will  either  carry  his  home  city  or 
at  least  divide  his  party  to  such  an  ex- 
tent that  the  Republicans  will  control 
the  banner  Democratic  county  in  the 
state,  and  as  the  state,  outside  of  Butte, 
is  nominallv  Republican  by  from  12,000  to 
15.000.  the  "outlook  Is  considered  highly 
promising  bv  the  Republican  leaders. 

Since  his  return  to  Montana,  most  per- 
sistent rumors  are  in  circulation  of  the 
intended  marriage  of  Senator  Clark  and 
Mrs.  C.  A.  Broadwater,  of  Helena,  the 
widow  of  the  leader  of  that  Democratic 
coterie  known  as  the  "Big  Four. "of  which 
Clark  and  Daly  were  also  members.

grounds  for  a  cityful  of  people,  roomy 
enough  so  that  each  separate  family  or 
party  can  have  ample  elbow  room  and 
privacy. 

For  another  shift  in  the  scene  he  can 
walk  to  the  lake  beach,  not  far  away, 
and  there  he  will  find  a  clean,  gravel 
strand  running  down  to  the  cold,  deep 
blue  waters  of  the  lake  which  stretches 
away  indefinitely.  In  short,  the  sur- 
roundings are  extremely  charming,  and 
the  opiHirtunitles  for  pleasure  are  un- 
limited. That  is  why  the  cars  bound  to 
Lester  Park  are  often  crowded,  and  why 
that  locality  is  being  more  visited  every 
week. 

The  dancing  pavilions  are  owned  and 
Conducted  by  L.  N.  Cunderson,  who  has 
arranged  to  have  dancing  in  the  larger 
pavilion  for  the  public  every  night  ex- 
cept Sunday,  with  music  furnished  by 
the  Labrosse  orchestra.  The  restaurant 
pavilions  are  well  equipped  for  the  relief 
of  the  tired  and  hungry  and  thirsty,  and 
a  feature  that  everyone  will  appreciate 
is  the  fact  that  intoxicants  of  all  kinds 
are  barred  from  the  park,  and  that  there 
is  no  danger  of  running  into  the  boister- 
ous and  unpleasant  associations  that  fol- 
low the  introduction  of  liquors  into  re- 
sorts of  this  kind.  One  of  the  dancing 
pavilions  is  kept  for  private  parties. 

Lester  Park  has  been  visited  every 
year  for  a  long  time,  but  this  year,  ac- 
cording to  those  in  a  position  to  know, 
is  the  year  of  the  best  attendance  so  far. 
Mr.  Gunderson  estimates  that  an  aver- 
age of  1000  people  a  day  visit  the  park.

««.  Peterson  and  Peter  Soards.  A  pcli- 
tiun  from  the  nev  town  of  Sharon  had 
lieen  expected,  liut  none  was  received. 
It  will  probably  ( ome  up  at  the  August 
meeting  of  the  board.  The  board  in  the 
meantime  will  cjmmunicate  with  the 
oflicers  and  peopl?  of  Sharon  to  find  out 
their  wishes. 

Assistant  Cour  ty  Attorney  John  M. 
McClintock  presented  to  the  board  his 
plan  of  making  i  ounty  prisoners  work, 
which  plan  The  Herald  gave  in  full  some 
time  ago.  The  commissioners  agreed 
with  him  that  there  was  need  for  such 
action,  and  the  rr after  will  be  taken  uj) 
at  the  next  meeting. 


AT  GAPE  NOME. 

Ed  Ward  Writes  Another  In- 
teresting Ltitter  From  That 
Remarkable  Ptace. 

The  Herald  has  received  another  in- 
teresting letter,  or  rather  series  of  let- 
ters, from  Ed  Ward,  the  well  known 
mining  man  from  this  section  who  is 
now  at  Cape  Noire.     He  says: 

"The  weather  continues  beautiful  here, 
perfect  in  fact.  Buildings  are  going 
up  like  magic.  As  soon  as  the  Moor 
is  laid  the  goods  are  moved  in.  as  soon 
as  the  frame  is  up  to  the  first 
story  a  glass  front  is  put  in  and  busi- 
ness opens.  The  -e  are  hundreds  of  car- 
penters here.  A  three  story  hardware 
store  is  being  built  and  it  has  a  large 
stock.  Almost  everything  that  is  to  l)e 
found  in  Seattle  is  on  sale  here  now. 
There  are  fresh  vegetables,  fruits,  co- 
coanuts,  and  strawberries  at  $1  a  quart, 
eggs  at  50  centt  a  dozen,  beef,  veal, 
pork,  mutton,  chickens  and  turkeys 
freshly  killed  every  day.  They  average 
a  little  over  a  dollar  a  pound.  Fresh 
honey  in  the  co-nb  is  worth  about  $1 
a  pound. 

"Real  estate  is  high,  lots  on  the  main 
street  being  worth  from  $1,500  to  $6,000. 
There  are  some  that  would  sell  for 
$10,000  readily  but  are  not  on  the  mar- 
ket, being  occuiied  by  large  saloons, 
gambling  hells,  etc.  Bakeries,  restau- 
rants and  lodging  houses  are  all  making 
money. 

"Rents  are  high.  J.  F.  Hobbs,  form- 
erly of  Duluth,  has  an  office  here  and 
has  to  pay  $100  a  month  rent  for  a  6  by 
S  foot  space  in  a  building  16  by  24  feet 
in  size.  In  the  :;ame  room  are  a  cigar 
stand,  six  barber  chairs,  three  other 
lawyers  besides  Mr.  Hobbs  and  a  sten- 
ographer and   typewriter, 

"The  Milwaukee  Alaskan  Dredge  Min- 
ing company  started  work  on  June  25 
in  Snake  river  and  seems  to  have  the 
proper  dredge.  It  is  an  endless  chain 
of  buckets  elevating  into  a  large  box  on 
top  of  the  dredge  with  sluice  boxes. 
The  dredge  is  a  large  affair  and  gen- 
erally conceded  to  be  all  right.  Snake 
river,  where  it  is  operated,  .seems  to 
have  furnished  the  gold  on  the  Nome 
lieach  and  is  easily  operated  for  there 
are  no  boulders. 

"The  barge  Skookum  arrived  on  the 
25th.  She  had  :.. 500,000  feet  of  lumber 
several  hundred  head  of  hor-ses,  cattle, 
sheep  and  hogs  and  a  few  passengers. 
The  steamer  (Jarronne  which  was 
thirty-three  days  out  from  Seattle  also 
arrived.  The  Ohio,  which  was  quaran- 
tined, arrived  with  500  passengers.  There 
are  sixty  ships  of  all  kinds  now  in  Nome 
harbor  unloading.  Nome  has  good 
harbor  room,  extending  from  Snake 
river,  to  Siberia  and  from  the  Aleutian 
islands  to  the  north  pole.  When  a 
storm  comes  up  they  all  go  to  sea  and 
sail  around  unti;  good  weather  comes. 
(It  might  be  remarked  here  that  Mr. 
Ward  is  either  facetious  or  else  has  an 
odd  idea  of  what  a  harbor  is.) 

"A  mastodon  head  has  been  unearthed 
here  that  measures  four  feet  across  the 
friiehead. 

"Nome  is  full  cf  toughs,  but  the  day- 
light is  now  continuing  twenty-four 
1  hours,  and  their  <"hances  for  robbery  are 
I  not  good.  Three-  men  were  shot  last 
I  night.  During  tlie  d?iy  two  men  quar- 
reled o\'er  a  loaf  of  bread,  and  at  night 
were  having  it  cut  with  their  guns.    A 


chance  shot  hit  a  man  in  a  tent.  He 
called  out  for  them  to  stop,  and  then 
took  his  rifle  and  shot  both  of  them.  He 
gav'e  himself  up  to  the  authorities  for 
commitment  and  medical  attendance.  If 
he  lives  he  will  be  cleared,  and  Nome  is 
rid  of  two  toughs. 

"The  prospectors  are  here  in  thou- 
sands, and  are  spreading  out  every- 
where, going  up  the  coast  and  down  the 
coast  and  hack  into  the  interior.  They 
go  with  pack  trains  of  mules  and  horses 
and  dogs,  up  the  rivers  with  row  boats, 
canoes,  launches,  etc.  Some  take  all 
their  belongings  and  a  year's  supplies. 
Although  the  Nome  is  a  good  deal  of  a 
fake  a  great  many  lives  will  be  lost,  and 
fortunes  will  be  too.  One  out  of  5000  will 
do  fairly  well." 


FEEDING  THE  SKELETON. 

Dr.  McTavish,  of  Edinburgh,  was 
something  of  a  ventriloquist,  and  it  be- 
fell that  he  wanted  a  lad  to  assist  in 
the  surgery  who  must  necessarily  be  of 
strong  nerves,  says  an  exchange.  He  re- 
ceived several  applications,  and  when 
telling  a  lad  what  the  duties  were  In 
order  to  test  his  nerves,  he  would  say. 
while  pointing  to  a  grinning  skeleton 
standing  upright  in  a  corner: 

"Part  of  your  work  will  be  to  feed  the 
.skeleton  there,  and  while  you  are  here 
you  may  as  well  have  a  try  to  do  so." 

A  few  lads  would  consent  to  a  trial, 
and  received  a  basin  of  hot  gruel  and  a 
spoon.  While  they  were  pouring  the  hot 
mass  into  the  skull  the  doctor  would 
throw  his  voice  so  as  to  make  it  appear 
to  proceed  from  the  jaws  of  the  l»ony 
customer,  and  gurgle  out: 

"Gr-r-r-gr-h-gh!     That's  hot! 

This  was  too  much  and,  without  ex- 
ception, the  lads  dropped  the  basin  and 
bolted.  The  doctor  began  to  despair  of 
ever  getting  a  suitable  helpmate,  until  a 
small  hoy  came  and  was  given  the  basin 
and  spoon.  After  the  first  spoonful  the 
.skeleton  appeared  tO  say: 

"Gr-r-r-gr-h-gh:     That's  hot! 

Shoveling  in  the  scalding  gruel  as  fast 
as  ever,  the  boy  rapped  the  skull  and 
Impatiently  retorted: 

"Well,  jist  blow  on't,  ye  auld  bony!" 

The  doctor  sat  down  on  his  chair  and 
fairly  roared,  but  when  the  laugh  was 
over  he  engaged  the  lad  on  the  spot.

At  a  meeting  of  the  Building  Trade.s' 
( ouncii.  held  last  evening  In  Brown's 
hall,  the  coming  La!)or  day  celebration 
was  talked  of  with  oonsideralile  enthu- 
.sjasm.  and  a.  committee  appointed  tu  act 
v>.ith  the  committee  appointed  last  week 
by  the  Federated  Trades'  assembly.  The 
j-dnt  committee,  which  v.ill  have  entire 
charge  of  the  arrangements,  consists  of: 
A.  \\.  Jones,  chairman:  John  McMur- 
<hey,  secretary:  C.  Elleflf.^en,  trea.surei  ; 
)'A  Parrr.tt.  Joseph  Kreager.  T.  J.  Tim- 
lin. Ed  .Meagher.  George  Davis.  J.  W.

The  Work  has  been  divided  up  among 
sub-committees,  the  grounds  and  trans- 
portation being  left  to  John  McMurch*  y 
and  C.  Elleffsen:  the  parade  to  J.  \V.

games  and  .sports  to  Ceo.  Davis.  Joseph

and  J.  W.  Ri<hardson.  and  the  program 
to  John  Ml  .Murchey. 

While  the  celebration  will  be  similar 
to  those  of  past  years,  it  is  propo.sed  to 
have  it  on  a  larger  scale,  and  ;he  dav

MAINE  TOWN  FOR  SALE. 

The  town  of  Somerville.  Lincoln  eoiu'- 
ty.  Me.,  is  for  .sale  to  the  highest  bidd^  r. 
and  it  isn't  exr>ected  that  anyone  will 
bid  very  high  for  the  place,  savs  ,i 
Itangor.  Me.,  special  to  the  New  York 
Sun.  Somerville  is  hopelessly  bankrupt, 
and  has  been  so  for  a  long  time.  It 
%vas  formerly  known  as  Patricktown 
Plantation,  and  is  tfiirtv  miles  north  of 
the  ancient  town  of  Wi.scasset.  Forty 
years  ago  there  were  about  600  inhabit- 
iints  in  the  place,  and  now  there  are 
only  4.jO,  whilf  the  valuation  has  fall-  n 
'-ff  from  SIOK.OOO  in  1S90  to  about  $S0.OO'> 
at  present. 

No  particular  eause  is  a.s.signed  for  Ihe 
plight  in  which  Somerville  finds  it.self  at 
the  century's  end.  It  .seems  to  hav^ 
just  dried  uii  and  it  is  the  best  examjile 
known  of  the  decayed  rural  t  >wn  of  N-mv 
i':ngland— the  place  of  deserted  milis. 
tumble-dinvn  hou.ses  and  abandoned 
tarms.  The  industries  never  amount-  d 
M  much,  consisting  of  some  little  rii,i- 
fashi-ined  sawmilN.  and  although  lii  • 
.^oil  i.s  as  giK^id  as  in  the  i>r  »sperous  towns 
all  around  it.  farming  in  Somerville 
.seems  to  have  been  a  failun-  in  fhig  g<n- 
<  ration.  Now  the  town,  with  its  n.>m- 
itial  valuation  of  $s<o.fMio.  has  a  debt  o/ 
?::0.ft<»0  whieh  it  eannot  .nav.  and  the 
chief  wonder  i.s  how  .such  a  debt  was 
rver  contracted.  N-»  one  in  Somerviile 
lias  paid  any  faxes  for  pvtr  so  long. 
;;nd  the  a.ss^essors  don't  know  how  to  gJ^: 
what  is  due  t.>  the  t-iwn.  to  the  county 
and  to  the  slate.  The  state  a.s.xessors 
iiave  no  suggestions  t  >  make  for  thi> 
benefit  of  the  loral  offlcials;  Covern-o 
Powers  doesn't  know  anv  remedy  for 
the  condition  of  affairs,  and  the  legisla- 
tion won't  do  anything  f>r  fear  that 
there  would  be  a  rush  of  other  novertv- 
strieken  towns  for  relief  on  the  sanit 
basis. 

The  cmly  thins  to  do  Is  to  sell  the  lov\  n 
outright,  and  that  is  wtiat  the  peojdc  of 
.-Somerville  want  to  do.  They  think  that 
possibly  some  rich  man  fn.ni  the  big 
cities  might  want  the  place  f.ir  a  private 
.ark.  for  which  jiurposc  it  offers  manv 
advantages,  but  at  last  accounts  no  on'- 
liad  made  anv  offer. 


Knights  of  the  quill  from  nenily  eve;y 
tinvn  in  Kentucdt.v  large  enough  to  h,:'ast 
its  weekly  paper,  arrived  in  West  Su- 
perior this  morning  for  a  two-days'  vis'.t 
at  the  head  of  the  lake.  The  molders  of 
public  opinion  in  the  old  commonwealth, 
after  a  very  succe.ssful  convention  at 
Louisville,  last  Monday,  decided  that  for 
a  week,  at  least,  pulilic  opini.m  could 
mold  lt.self  while  its  ordinary  makers 
were  on  a  junketing  trip  through  the 
-Northwest  engaged  in  the  pleasant  task 
of  "rubbing  up"  for  the  next  year's 
work. 

Today  the  editors  and  their  wive.'^ 
have  been  visiting  the  ore  docks  at  Su- 
lierior,  the  shipbuilding  yards  and  rid- 
ing about  the  harbor  as  guests  of  the 
Commercial  chib  of  that  city. 

They  will  couie  over  to  Duluth  tomor- 
row morning  and  spend  another  day  in 
sightseeing,  paying  a  visit  to  the  dock.s. 
elevators  and  ihe  many  other  points  of 
interest  in  the  city.

SORRY  FOR  HIM. 

A  story  about  little  Prince  Edward  of 
York  appears  in  the  British  Weekly.  Not 
l.)ng  ago  he  was  taken  over  a  British 
man-if-war  and  was  much  interested 
in  a  large,  heavily-built  chest  which  was 
.shown  him. 

"What  does  that  hold?"  he  asked 
tall  officer  who  accompanied  him. 

"Powder,"   was   the   reply.     The  little 


HRR  STORY. 
According  to  the  science  column  of  a 
German  weekly  par>er,  the  hens  of 
China  lead  busy  lives.  When  not  en- 
gaged in  hatching  out  a  brood  of  their 
own  kind,  they  are  put  to  the  additional 
and  novel  task  of  hatching  fish  eggs. 
Chinese  cheap  labor  collects  the  spawn 
of  the  fish  from  the  water's  ed^e,  nuts 
It  in  an  empty  egg  <*ell,  which  is  then 
hermetically  soalefl  with  wax  and  placed 
under  the  unsuspecting  and  conscien- 
tious hen.  In  a  few  da.vs  the  egg  shell 
is  removed,  and  the  spawn,  which  has 
been  warmed  into  life,  is  emptied  into  a 
shallow  pool.  Here  the  fish  that  .soon 
develoii  are  nursed  until  strong  enougti 
to  be  turned  into  a  lake  or  stream.

PARLIAMENTARY  PAPER. 

London.  July  28.— A  parliamentary 
paptT  on  China  was  is.sufH  this  jift<'r- 
noon.  dealing  with  the  period  of  the 
nmiHler  of  the  missionary-Brooks,  Jan.  4 
to  July  1:5.  vvht-n  the  Chinese  minister  at 

Ijondon.  .Sir  Chih  Chen  Lo  Feng  Luh, 
c*Oinninnirate<l  to  Lr>rd  Salisbury  thf  im- 
perial t'di^t.  The  last  written  •■onimuri- 
rallon  from  tSio  British  minister  at 
Pekin,  Sir  Claude  MacDonald.  dated  May 


21,  declares  that  "the  demeanor  of  th<'' 
inhabitants  of  Pekin  is  quiet  and  civil 
towards  foreifrners.  although  from  th-^ 
panic  ;im'>ng  natives  it  may  be  a.^sumed 
the  latter  are  being  subjected  t>  threats 
of  violence." 

Sir  Claude  MacDonald  was  convinced 
that  a  few  days  of  heavy  rainfall  to  ter- 
minate the  drought,  which  he  said  helped 
to  excite  the  unrest  of  tiie  countr.v  dis- 
tricts, would  do  more  to  restore  tran- 
quilitv  than  any  measures  the  Chinese 
or  foreign  sovernmer.*«'  f^-^nid  take.

LI  Hung  Chang  Has  A  tlvlces 

Front  Pekin  to  the 

Same  EHecU 


Washington,  July  2S.— The  secretary 
f)f  state  has  received  a  dispatch  from 
Mr.  Fowler,  the  American  consul  at 
Che  Foo.  dated  at  midnight  on  the  26lh, 
as  follows: 

"This  morning,  by  request  of  the 
allied  admirals,  I  wired  the  governor 
(supposed  to  be  the  govurn«jr  of  Shan 
Tung)  their  wish  to  get  news  from  the 
minist'is  themselves.  The  governor 
now  ivplied: 

■  Have  received  today  edict  from  em- 
peror saying  that  the  ministers  are  well. 
They  are  sending  provisions  to  the  lega- 
tions. Am  confident  ministers  out  of 
distress  and  request  you  (Fowler)  to 
transmit  this  preliminary  announce- 
ment to  admirals.'  YCAN, 

Governor."  " 

A  later  dispatch  iroin  Fowler,  dated 
1  ;i.  m.,  to  the  state  department  is  as 
follows: 

"Another   telegram   from    Governor: 
"Have    jusi     received    imperial    edict 
-pl.?ox.»  ■rf.i.ilsuiMu    «no!,iRA  aui.^Ks    \\y\z 
ing  Germans,   are   well,   and   some  days 


not  believe  that  the  Tsunr  M  Yamen  would 
permit  the  massacre  of  the  envoys  and 
hope  to  hear  that  they  have  been  pro- 
tected. However,  we  camint  ii-ll  how  wide- 
spread this  trouble  is." 

NEED  A  CENSOR, 

London  Thinks  Ont  on  China  Niws 
It  Neo0Stary. 

Nfw  York.  July  L^.— A  illspalch  to  the 
Tribune  from  London  says:  The  necessit.v 
for  a  censorship  of  press  dispatches  from 
Shanghai  has  l>e£n  proved  by  the  untrust- 
wnrthlness  of  all  accounts  of  the  massacre 
alleged  to  have  accurred  on  July  6.  The 
foreign  ofHccs  of  Europe  must  now  admit 
that  they  have  been  themselves  deceived 
by  sen.'!ational  journalism,  credulous  as  the 
state  department  m;iy  have  been  in  ac- 
o'pting  Mr.  Conger's  messige  for  a  date 
which  Sheng  cho^^e  W  assign  to  it. 

Sir  ('"laude  MacDonald,  who  was  a  sol- 
dier before  he  wa.<  a  diplomatist,  ex- 
plains what  veterans  in  thf  Chinese  servic. 
have  l>ecn  unable  to  undi  rstand,  namely 
his  method  of  successful  ditCnse  for  a  per 
iod  of  at  least  nineteen  <hiys.  From  the 
opening  of  the  siege,  the  uribassy  guards 
occupied  and  held  a  portion  .»  the  city  wall 
and  from  this  bastion  comm.inded  the  open 
spaci\s  ari>und  the  British  and  Russian  in- 


ago  had  supplied  provisions  to  lega- 
tions. Am  satisfied  ministers  out  of 
distress.  YITAN.

Secretary  Hay  has  aKso  received  a

Persistence     of    Clieering 

Stories   Converting  tlie 

Most  Pessimistic. 


Washington,  July  28. — Coming  from 
three  separate  quarters  this  mornin.g. 
the  ,'issurance  that  the  foreign  ministers 
at  Pekin  were  alive  and  well  on  July  24 
had  a  tendency  to  dissipate  the  pessi- 
mistic view  which  the  state  department 
has  been  taking  for  the  last  few  days  as 
to  the  situation  in  Pekin.  It  is  true  that 
a  comparison  of  the  various  edicts  and 
statements  bearing  on  this  subject  ap- 
pear to  demonstrate  the  fact  that  they 
all  came  from  one  fountain  head,  either 
Uan  Shih  Ki  or  Li  Hung  Chang.  Th« 
persistence  with  whioh  these  stories  of 
the  safety  of  the  ministers  are  circulated 
undoubtedly  is  shaking  the  belief  <jf 
those  who  heretofere  have  been  satistied 
that  all  of  the  ministers  in  Pekin  were 
dead. 

Today's  assurances  came  from  Mr. 
Fowler,  the  American  consul  at  Che 
Foo;  from  Mr.  McWade,  the  American 
consul  at  Canton,  and  from  Minister 
Wu,  tiie  Chinese  minister  here. 

The  latter  came  to  the  state  depart- 
ment early  expressly  to  deliver  an  edict 
received  by  him  to  Secretary  Hay.  It  is 
similar  in  form  to  the  edict  published 
yisterday  in  London.  The  minister  says 
that  the  only  differences  are  those  in- 
volved In  separate  translations.  Mr. 
Wu's  translation  of  Sheng's  dispatch  io 
as  follows: 

"Edict  of  28th  of  the  6lh  moon  (corre- 
sponding to  July  24).  stales  that  fortu- 
natel.v  all  ministers,  except  Baron  Von 
Ketteler.  are  alive  and  unharmed.  They 
are  now  being  supplied  with  vegetables, 
fruit  and  provisions  by  the  government, 
to  show  its  sympathy  for  them." 

If  Mr.  Wu  had  any  doubt  as  to  the 
safety  of  the  legaters,  it  seems  to  have 
been  dissipated  by  this  edict.  He  lab- 
ored earnestly  with  Secretary  Hay  to 
convince  him  that  he  was  bound  to  ac- 
cept this  official  declaration  of  the 
Chinese  government.  He  po'-nted  out 
that  this  last  declaration  differed  ma 
terially  from  most  of  the  other  state- 
ments that  have  emanated  from  Chin^.se 
sources,  from  the  fact  that  it  did  not 
represent  merely  the  belief  of  a  minor 
ofhcial,  or  a  viceroy;  it  was  the  solemn 
declaration  of  the  Chinese  government. 
In  making  the  statement  touching  the 
ministers,  the  Chinese  government, 
therefore,  assumed  a  serious  responsi- 
bility to  the  world  at  large.  He  said  it 
could  not  l>e  conceived  that  such  r-espon- 
siblllty  would  be  lightly  assumed,  and 
therefore  he,  Mr.  Wu,  did  not  hesitate  tc> 
assert  his  positive  personal  conviction 
that  the  ministers  were  alive  on  July  24. 

When  his  attention  was  called  to  the 
aripaient  failure  of  Yuan  Shih  Kai  to 
accede  to  Consul  Fowler's  request  th:<t 
the  allied  admirals  be  put  into  com- 
munication with  the  ministers,  Mr.  Wu 
shrugged  his  shoulders  in  a  deprecatory 
manner  and  merely  replied  that  the 
Chinese  were  so  different  from  other 
people  that  the  usual  tests  could  not  be 
applied  to  them;  it  would  not  be  pos- 
sible to  predict  what  they  would  do 
under  conditions  that  would  lie  easily 
met  by  Europeans  or  Americans.  It  was 
possible,  he  added,  that  Yuan  was 
really  undertaking  to  do  what  the  ad- 
mirals wished,  only,  it  would  first  be 
necessary  for  him  to  consult  the  Pekin 
authorities,  and  that  would  take  time. 
He  could  not  say  when  an  answer  might 
be  expected  to  his  last  message  to 
Minister  Congei'. 

Special  Commissioner  Rockhill  called 
at  the  state  department  this  morning 
and  had  a  final  conference  with  Secre- 
tary Hay  respecting  his  mission  to 
China.  It  was  not  deemed  proper  to 
make  public  the  exact  ini^tructions  given 
to  Mr.  R(x-khill,  but  it  is  stated  gener- 
ally that  he  is  being  sent  out  to  ascer- 
tain the  conditions  in  China  for  the 
guidance  of  the  state  department,  an<t 
to  serve  as  its  direct  representative  in 
that  country.  There,  also,  is  the  possi- 
bility that  a  commissioner  will  be  re- 
quired on  the  spot  in  case  anything  in 
the  nature  of  an  international  commis- 
sion is  created  to  deal  with  the  Chinese 
question. 

Mr.  Rockhill  leaves  Washington  at 
3:30  o'clock  this  afternoon  for  the  Pa- 
cific slope,  stopping  at  Chicago  for  a  day 
en  route. 

The  dispatch  from  Consul  Fowler 
'."onveying  assurances  from  Yuan  Shih 
Kai.  the  ;?overnor  at  Shan  Tung,  that 
the  foreign  ministers  were  all  well  on 
July  25  and  had  beeq  provisioned,  has 
raised  a  new  theory  at  the  state  depart- 
ment, which  is  being  speculated  upon. 
These  assurances  have  been  given  in 
answer  to  the  repeated  and  urgent  de- 
mand of  the  European  governments  that 
they  be  placed  in  communication  with 
their  admirals  for  direct  communication. 
The  inquiry  then  naturally  arises:  If 
the  ministers  have  been  provrsioned, 
why  does  not  the  Chine.se  government 
knowing  as  it  does  that  the  whole  world 
is  demanding  a  direct  me.s.sage  from  the 
besieged  legationers,  allow  them  to  com- 
municate with  their  government?  Why 
not  furnish  an  unequivocal  evidence  of 
the  safety  of  the  ministers,  instead  of 
this  repetition  of  an  assurance  which 
the  world  hesitates  to  accept?  Th-' 
failure  to  pursue  the  direct  method, 
which  must  be  available,  tends  almost 
irresistibly  to  the  suspicion  that  some- 
thing has  happened  In  Pekin  which  the 
Chinese  government  desires  to  c<mceal 
from  the  powers;  that  it  Is  afraid  to 
allow  the  true  Stor-y  to  l»e  revealed  until 
some  sort  of  terms  have  been  made  with 
the  powers. 


NO  INSPECTION. 
Washington,  July  28.— The  fruit  grow- 
er's of  California  will  be  glad  to  know 
that  among  the  good  results  of  the  late 
diplomatic  agreement  with  Germany  is 
the  removal  of  the  vexatious  inspection 
of  dried  and  evaporated  fruit  exported 
from  the  United  States.  These  fruits 
will  hereafter  be  admitted  Into  Ger- 
many, as  formerly,  without  inopection,

MINISTERS  ALL  DEAD 


Istlie  Report,  Tliey  Having 

First  Ui  Sliot  Tlieir 

Families. 


London,  July  28,— The  Daily  Mail's 
Shanghai  correspondent  telegraphs  that 
a  Russian  banker,  >vho  left  Pekin  Jury 
7  and  arrived  at  Shanghai,  Wednesday, 
July  2.0,  says  that  when  he  left  Pekin  all 
the  legations  had  been  destroyed  and  all 
for-ergners  murdered.  The  ministers, 
seeing  death  was  liievitable,  shot  their 
families.  Sir  Robei  t  Hart,  the  banker 
adds,  committed  suicide  in  despair. 

The  full  text  of  the  Daily  Mail's  tele- 
gram is  as  follows: 

"Shanghai.  July  28.— Newspapers  here 
pulilish  a  statement  by  an  influential 
banker  residing  in  Pekin,  near  the  Brit- 
ish legation,  who  jrrived  In  Shanghai, 
July  25,  having  left  Pekin  July  7.  He 
states  that  the  legations  were  then  de- 
stroyed. All  the  foreigners  had  disap- 
peared, and  he  could  not  say  positively 
If  they  had  been  nrurdered,  as  he  was 
too  frightened  to  Inquire." 

The  Mail's  corresi'ondent  proceeds: 

"Investigations  prove  this  information 
is  reliable.  The  banker  in  question  ha.s 
gone  to  Ying  Po.  His  friends  will  not 
dLsclose  his  name,  fearing  that  to  do 
so  would  cause  him  to  lose  his  head. 

"The  manager  of  the  Russian  bank  of 
Shanghai  has  recehed  a  letter  frmn  the 
bank's  New  Chwing  branch,  stating 
that  one  of  their  Chinese  representatives 
from  Pekin.  who  had  just  arr-ived,  con- 
firmed the  report  of  the  Pekin  massacre. 
He  stated  that  all  the  foreign  ministers 
were  murdei'ed." 

BRITONSJEPRESSED. 

Pessimism  6row»asto  the  Situa- 
tion Ir  China. 

London,  July  28— The  statement  cabU-i 
from  Washington  that  officials  there  ar"e 
wavering  with  regnrd  to  the  reliability 
of  the  alleged  messages  from  Minister 
Conger  and  Wu  Tirg  Fang's  assuranc;.s 
has  had  a  markedly  depressing  effect  on 
this  side  of  the  oces.n,  where  many  have 
been  buoyed  up  by  the  sanguine  views  of 
the  state  department  at  Washington  re- 
garding the  various  Shanghai  dis- 
patches, and  pessimism  is  again  gaining 
the  ascendency. 

"No  imjn-ovetnent  in  the  general  situ- 
ation" is  the  messaKe  one  agency  brings 
from  the  consul  general  at  Shanghai  to 
overwrought  Europe,  while  arrother  as- 
serts that  as  a  weelc  has  elapsed  wlth- 
fut  a  reply  to  the  consul's  message  to  the 
British  minister  al  Pekin.  Sir  Claude 
McDonald,  through  the  Tsung  Li-Yamen 
(Chinese  foreign  olficer),  the  belief  is 
confirmed  that  the  assurances  of  Chinese 
ofiicialdom  ai'e  only  designed  to  gain 
time,  and  that  even  if  the  ministers  are 
alive  they  ar-e  held  as  hostages. 

As  commentator's  pertinently  remark, 
if  there  is  an  atoir  of  truth  in  all  the 
Chinese  asservatiors.  the  officials  have 
only  to  supply  the  legations,  not  with 
vegetables,  but  witli  telegraph  forms. 

Definite  news  of  any  kind  is  scarce. 
The  report  comes  from  Shanghai  that 
business  has  been  resumed  at  the  port  of 
New  Chwang,  and  a  .second  Japanese  di- 
vision is  mobilizing  at  Tokio  preparatory 
to  embarkation  for  China.

Georgetown,  July  28.— Counsel  for  the 
prosecution  in  the  trial  of  Caleb  Powers, 
charged  with  complicity  In  the  killing  of 
Governor  Goebel,  will  ask  that  the  jury

its  case  at  the  conclu.sion  of  testimony  of 
Wharton. 

Golden  resumed  the  witness  stand  at 
9:30  and  Judge  Sims  began  a  severe  cross- 
examination.  Golden  repeated  the  story 
told  previously  of  how  he  came  to  l»e 
called  as  a  witrress.  He  denied  telling  his 
brother-in-law,  John  Stamper,  that  he 
had  been  promised  $2500  or  that  he  could 
have  $.7000  in  case  of  a  conviction  of  nar- 
ttes.  He  also  denied  that  he  had  ever  said 
if  he  and  Culton  could  gel  together,  they 
could  convict  all  of  them. 

Golden  was  kept  busy  for  an  hour  or 
more  denying  that  he  had  made  state- 
ments that  are  attributed  to  him  by 
1  er-Bons  who,  it  Is  supposed,  will  be  In- 
troduced by  the  defense  to  Impeach  his

New  York,  July  28.— Cable  messages 
were  received  todaj-  by  both  the  Pres- 
byterian boards  of  foreign  missions  and 
the  American  Bible  society  corrobora- 
tive of  the  report  t  lat  the  missionaries 
at  Pao  Ting  Fu  hid  been  massacred. 
The  message  received  liy  the  Presbyter- 
ian boar'd  came  from  Shanghai  and  was 
supposed  to  have  bt?en  sent  by  the  Rev, 
Geo.  F.  Fi'tch.      It  reads  as  follows: 

"Simcoxes,  Hodges,  Taylor,  Mackey, 
other  mission  sevtn,  massacred,  Pao 
Ting  Fu,  July  8.  Nenking,  Hunan, 
missionaries,  all  Shanghai,  Japan." 

The  American  Bible  society  today  re- 
ceived a  cablegram  from  Shanghai  as 
follows: 

"All  massacred  Pao  Ting  Fu.  Fhr- 
eigners  interior  ordored  Shanghai.  Wire

NO  RED  CROSS  PLEDBE. 

China  Not  Bound  to  Proteot  Sur- 
foons  and  Nurses. 

Washlngti.n,  July  28.— One  of  the 
phases  of  the  trouble  in  China,  which 
heretofore  has  been  overbwked  but 
which  may  prove  to  be  of  great  import- 
ance, is  the  fact  that  China  is  now  a 
party  to  the  Geneva  Red  Cross  conven- 
tion,   by    which    the    signatory  powers 

bound  themselves  in  time  of  war  to  re- 
spect the  Red  Cross,  and  to  treat  sur- 
geons and  nurses  belonging  to  the 
armies  of  the  enemy  as  non-combatants. 
China  did  not  sign  the  original  treaty, 
made  shortly  after  the  Crimean  war.  as 
a  dlre.t  outgrowth  of  the  efforts  of 
Florence  Nightingale,  nor  did  she  join 
the  supplementary  treaty  of  1882.  China 
is.  in  fact,  the  only  one  of  the  great 
powers  of  the  world  which  has  not 
joined  In  conventions  which  assures  the 
safety  of  those  engaged  on  errands  of 
mercy  in  the  battlefield.  There  nurses 
on  the  Grant  who  might  be  landed  in 
China  if  Gen.  Chaffee  considers  the 
condition  such  as  they  could  l>e  used. 
There  ar-e  also  five  nurses  on  the  Sum- 
mer, which  sailed  from  San  Francisco 
on  the  17th.  These  also  can  be  diverted 
for  service  in  China.  Lieut.  Anita  New- 
comb  Magee,  who  is  in  charge  of  the 
corps  of  army  nurses,  .says  there  are  now 
145  army  nurses,  practically  all  of  whom

WAS  BUT  A  DREAM. 

Phoenix,  Mich.,  Youth's  Dream  of 
Wealth  Vanishes. 

Phoenix.  Mich.,  July  28.— William 
Jackson,  the  youth  whi  left  here  saying 
that  Miss  Helen  Gould  had  sent  for  him. 
has  returned.  He  discovered  on  reach- 
ing Vew  York  that  it  was  nothing  but  a 
dream  and  that  Miss  Gould  had  not  sent 
for  hini.  The  young  man  had  borrowed 
$60  from  his  father  instead  of  having  d 
check  from  Miss  Gould. 

EARTHS  MAW. 
Nothing  is  too  big  or  too  small  to  es- 
cape the  maw  of  our  hungry  globe. 
Quicksands  are  the  traps  she  spread.! 
for  smaller  fry.  Probably  the  worst  aird 
most  dangerous  In  the  world  are  tors 
"Sfiotts"  of  the  Sahara,  says  the  Lon- 
don Dally  Mall.  These  are  perhaps  the 
dregs  of  some  prehistoric  sea.  Now  they 
are  covered  over  with  a  thick  crust  of 
salt  and  sand.  Whole  caravans  have 
walked  unconsciously  into  these  death 
traps  and  been  quickly  swallowed  up. 
Reclus,  the  French  authority,  declares 
you  can  sound  these  quicksands  to  a 
depth  of  300  feet  without  flndins  bot- 
tom.

After  the  ceremony  the  wedding  party 
repaired  l>i  the  residence  of  the  bride's

wedding  breakfast  was  served.  Later 
th-  bride  and  bridegroom  started  for 
Broughton  Castle,  which  Lady  A.  (Jlen- 
no.\  has  lent  them  for  the  honeymoon. 
Tiie  bride  was  the  recipient  of  many 
beautiful  presents,  iniTuding  an  ex-

gift  of  friends  of  J^dy  Randolph,  in-

It  appears  that  everywhere  exiept  at

but  when  presented  to  the  <iueen  it  must 
be  as  plain  Mrs.  West.  By  her  mar-

consists  In  a  life  interest  in  CSO.OOO.

WAR  BOOSTS  BEEF. 

k  Big  Advance  Is  Made  In  Canned 
Moat. 

Cfiicago,  July  liS— The  Record  says: 
ITices  on  corned  and  roust  beef  have  ad- 
vanced from  $1.25  to  Jl.uO  per  dozen  for 
1 -pound  vans.  This  is  the  largest  ad- 
vance ever  made  by  Chicago  and  West- 
ten  packers  at  one  jump.  The  cau.se  of 
the  advance  is  the  large  demand  for 
these  goods  b.\  the  I'nited  States  govern- 
ment and  foreign  t"owers.  One  of  the  big 
packers,  in  sneaking  of  the  advance, 
said : 

"If  the  deiii.iiid  t'ei-  coin  and  roast  beef 
increases  duiing  thi'  next  two  weeks  as 
it  has  the  la.-^t  two  weeks,  you  will  .see 
torn  and  mast  beef  selling  at  $2  i.er 
ilozen  1-pound  cans.  Every  packing  in- 
stitulioji  in  Chicago  is  w  trking  its  jilant 
to  iri,.  fullest  capaeitv.  and  even  liu  ii

A  BITTER  FI6HT 


AndaTliIrd  Party  Is  Looked 

For— Tiie  American 

Visitors. 


Lond«»n.  July  28.— (Copyrighted,  !»(><). 
by  the  Assuciate^l  Press.*  Almost  as  re- 
maikable  as  the  breakdown  of  lon,:,- 
e.<tal>lished  social  <  u.-^toms  hefrre  tii. 
tropical  wave  is  the  ttreakuii  ..;  the 
Liberal  party.  Were  a  general  ele-tlon 
tar  distant,  the  condition  of  the  IJbe:-  il 
party  would  he  serious,  but  ie 
the  fact  that  the  country  is  fate  ij  la.e 
with  dissolution,  the  situation  of  th« 
opposition  seems  hopeless.  The  forma- 
tion of  a  third  partv  is  generally  c  n- 
gidered  almost  inevitable,  as  th*-  result 
ef  the  international  dissensions  now 
r£.ging  in  the  Liberal  ranks.  The  iro- 
perialists  ha\e  thrown  off  the  mask  and 
demand  eonfrol  of  the  party,  maintain- 
ing tha  ibi.fh  i»y  numbers  and  infiuen  e 
Ihey  are  entitled  to  dictate  its  policy. 
In  thL5  they  aie  opposed  'oy  the  "for- 
Avanl"  or  anti-imperialist  Lil>erals,  with 
a  vigor  and  bitterness  that  can  only  be 
c.  nipared  to  the  as:erbity  with  which 
the  Uladstunians  assailed  the  Lilx  ral 
I  nionists  when  home  rule  brought  them 
to  the  parting  of  the  way.s. 

The  climax  of  the  strife  that  has  been 
s.mmenng  since  the  conmiencement  "f 
the  Boer  war  came  Wednesday,  when 
one-third  of  the  Liberal  party "voteil  to 
coadenin  the  colonial  secrectary.  Ju.-'eph 
Chamberlain,  ami  all  his  works:  one- 
third  Voted  with  the  .government  to 
susstain  him.  while  the  smallest  senioa 
of  all.  including  the  nominal  leader.  al>- 
stalned  fn  m  voting  at  all. 

It  is  scarcely  surprising  that  Sir 
Henry  Camplieli-Bannerman  should  :>e 
anxious  in  throw  up  his  thanklpss  task, 
but  that  only  repre.«ents  a  minor  feature 
of  this  gra.e  .•situation.  One  of  the 
Liberal  whips.  William  Alexander  Mc- 
Arthur.  memlier  for  Leicester,  has 
openly  thrown  off  allegiance  'ly  voting 
with  the  government,  an  almost  unprc- 
udented  actbm  on  the  part  of  one  hold- 
ing such  a  ptosition.  Herttert  (JIailslone. 
thfe  chief  whip,  is  en  the  point  of  resign- 
ing to  show  disau.=t  with  what  he  be- 
lleve."^  to  be  the  ilisloyalty  of  Sir  Edward 
Grey  and  others  who  follow  him. 

Meantime  the  imperialist  section  ha> 
demanded  that  Sir  Edward  Grey  ts- 
sumc  the  leadership,  which  would  h- 
anr-ther  way  of  bringing  Lord  Ro.sebery 
ba:k  into  active  political  life.  Such  a 
develcpraf^nt  wruld  never  be  swallowed 
Uy  John  Morley.  Secretary  V'ilfrcd

Courtney  and  their  fallo'^'ers.  Camp- 
beH-Bannermans  consent,  under  pres- 
sure:, to  temporarily  retain  the  leadev- 


ship.  is  but  a  slim  gua'antee  of  i)eace 
within  the  Liberal  ranks,  for  upon  any 
rejetition  <if  Wednesday's  settle  he  will 
promptly   lesign.  7 

It    is    impossible    to   see    hifw    such    a 
rejietition    can    l>e   avoided,    and    so   an- 
'llur  secession  from  the  Liberal   ranks 
e'lualing  in  gravity  the  split  of  1>!S6.  mav 
I  onlidently  be  expected. 

The  government  is  considering  the  ap- 
1"  intnient  of  a  royal  commission  on  the 
question  of  the  future  of  the  naval  coal 
supply.  This  action  is  greatly  due  to 
the  increased  production  and  cheapnes.-? 
ef  American  coal,  and  the  diminishin;; 
sujiply  of  Welsh  steam  coal,  with  wh'ch 
warships  aie  furnished. 

Four  members  of  the  ways  and  means

ISerlin.  July  :.'n.— The  Lokil  Anzeigt  r 
says  the  emperor,  when  atldressing  the 
troops  at  Bremerhaven  before  they  sailed 
for  China,  said: 

"So  I  send  you  ont.  Mfv  you  all  prove

The  Lokal  Anzcigers  report  of  ;i.e 
speech  differs  from  the  semi-oftlcial  re- 
t»orts.  notably  in  respect  of  the  icierenee 
to  sparing  none  and  makiiig  no  prisoners 
when  coming  into  close  tjuarters  wiih  th>' 
enemy,  but  the  correspondent  of  ihe  A.--

by  a  perfectly  responsible  person  who

several  other  persons,  the  negro  des- 
1  ei-ado.  Robert  Ctiarles,  who  killed  Capt. 
Day  and  Patrolman  Lamb  and  badly 
wounded  OtHcer  Mira,  was  strtoked  out 
r.f  his  hiding  place  in  the  heart  of  the 
residence  section  of  the  city  yesterday 
afternoon  and  literally  shot  to  pieces. 

The  ij-a2^edy  was  one  of  the  most  re- 
markable in  the  history  of  the  city,  and 
20,000    people,   soldiers,     pjllcemen    and 
citizens,     wer-e     gathered     around      the 
s(|uare  in  which  Ctiiarles  was  finally  put  , 
to      death.        Tremendous      excitement 
leigned    in    New    Ordeans    as 
went  on  between  the  police  an 
and  the  negr-o  with  his  Winchester. 

After  the  tragedy  was  over  atrd 
Charles  was  dragged  out  from  the  mud 
and  slush  in  which  Lie  had  fallen,  with 
the  mob  howling  for  the  burning  of  his 
body,  statements  were  made  that  the 
man  killed  was  not  really  the  desperado 
who  had  killed  Day  and  Lamb,  but 
papers  found  on  his  person  and  the  fact 
that  he  fou.gtit  so  desperately  for  his  life 
and  shfit  so  accurately  seem  to  leave 
little  djubt  that  ihe  riglit  man  was 
killed. 

Sergt.  Gabe  Porteous.  one  of  the  best 
known  officers  r,n  the  force,  and  Sergt. 
John  F.  Lally,  whir  has  a  line  record  for 
bravery,  wer-e  informed  that  Charles  was 
in  hiding  in  a  house  on  Clio,  near  Sara- 
tiga  street.  Determined  to  take  him 
alive  if  possible,  tne  officers  summoned 
a  number  of  patrolmen  to  their  assist- 
ance and  went  to  the  house.  The  negi-o 
infor-nuint  of  tlie  policemen  accompanied 
the  ofiicer-s.  They  entered  the  side  alley 
of  the  house  and  wer-e  surprised  in  the 
same  way  as  Day  and  Lamb. 

P.ef  >re  the  ofiicej-s  were  aware  of  their 
danger-,    Charles,    who    was    hiding    be- 
'Tinti  a  screen  on  the  seconfi  Hoor  of  the 
building,  rai.«--ed  his  Winchester  and  be- 
g.in  a   furious  but  accurate  fir-e.     Lally 
fell  with  a  bullet  in  th'.-  r-ight  side  of  the 
abdomen.      Porteous    was   shot    through 
the    head    and    dropped    thad    acro.«s    the 
bodv    of   I^illy.     The    other-   oflicer-s   and 
t  'e  tregro  fled   fr-om   the  scene.     TTre  re- 
pcTts    of    Cliarlfs'    Winchester    arrd    Ih^ 
fact   that    two  policemen   l.iy  bleeding  in 
the  y;;ril  raised  tremendous    excitement. 
Hurried  calls   were   sent  to   the   mayor, 
and  the  chief  of  police,  and  as  quick  as 
r)o.ssib!e  armed   help    was  rushed   to   the 
scene.     In   a    little   while   ther-e   was  an 
immense    armed    crowd    encirclin.g     th*- 
sijuare  in  wihich  Charles  was  located.  In 
the   meantime   Father  Fitzgerald    jf  St. 
John's    church    was    summoned    to    ad- 
minister extreme   unction   to  the  nolice 
oflficers  who  wet-e  lying  in  the  alley.  The 
iriest  responded  pr-omraly,  and   he  wa.«

Alfr-ed      G.      Plo  imfield,    a    young    boy.

One  of  the  most  dangerous  and  com- 
mon forms  of  acute  nervous  prostration  r« 
known  as  sunstroke.  The  prostratioa 
caused  by  overheating  of  the  body  does  not 
always  result  in  sunstroke,  but  more  com- 
monly in  milder  forms  i.if  depression,  such 
as  Utrvous  headache,  dizziness,  faintness. 
sleeplessne.ss,  palpitation,  mental  confa- 
sion,  abundant  clear  urine,  creeping  rigors., 
flashes  of  heat,  and  shortness  of  brt>aih 
at  the  least  exertion^ 

All  of  the  above  names  are  symptoms 
of  acute  prostration  most  prevalent  dor- 
ing  tlie  month  of  July  than  at  any  other 
season  of  the  year.  Even  people  who  have 
the  most  vigorous  health  are  liable  to  at- 

tiicks  of  prostration  during  the  hot   wav  -s 

ol'  early  summer. 

The  only  aafe  course  to  take  is  to 
j  keep  the  blood  pure,  digestion  good 
and  sleep  regular.  No  remedy  equals 
in  all  respects,  Peruna,  for  this  pur- 
pose. A  dose  of  Peruna  before  each 
meal  during  the  hot  season  Is  a  safe- 
guard of  pricele.4S  value.

There  great  difliculty  was  experlen.-ed 
in  taking  the  corpse  of  the  negro  from 
the  wagon  into  the  building. 

Charles'     body     was     found     terribly 
lacerated  from  head  to  foot  by  the  bul-

surr-ounded.  and  a  special  squad  n»ade

were  found  dressed  in  woinen'.s  clothes. 
They  were  hustled  out  and  immediately 
sent  to  prison  in  a  patrol  wagon.  Sub- 
sequently a  fou-th  negro,  a  rnulat'io. 
was  discovered  in  the  building.  He 
made  a  desper-at"  resistance  against  be-

a  pi.stol  in  the  hinds  of  one  of  the  dis-

( ase  it  should  be  resolved  to  burn  the 
I'uilding.  A  can  of  oil  was  poured  over 
the  rear  steps  of  the  iiuildlng,  and  sojn 
the  structure  was  in  flame'.  It  was 
known  that  no  human  being  could  live 
in  the  building,  and  plck?d  men  frons 
the  police  force  stationni  them.':*  Ives 
about  the  buildin.g  in  order  to  pick  off 
the  desperado  as  he  attenij>!i;d  to  leavf

.'impany  of  state  militia,  rim-^d  Ander- 
s m,  was  the  fir-st  to  see  Oharb^s  as  he 
ran  to  the  second  floor. 

Anderson  shot  the  negr-o  in  tli?  breast 
and  he  fell  and  died  soon  .-.fter.  As 
soon  as  the  negro  fell  a  nunib"i-  of  peopb- 
armed  with  Winchesters  rushod  in  and 
fired  into  the  body.  Charles  v.-is  liter- 
ally shot  to  pieces.  The  body  v.'as 
dragged  into  the  street.  There  the  police 
and  mob  emptied  their  levolvei-s  Into  it, 
v.hile  a  scor-e  of  men  rushed  rrp  and 
:-lainpcd  the  fate  be.vond  r-ecognition. 
There  wer-e  loud  howls  that  the  iiotly 
should  be  taken  to  a  vicant  stiuare  in 
tiie  vicinity  and  publicly  burneii.  At 
this  instant,  however. -a  big  squad  o' 
ntdr.e  dashed  up  in  a  p.itrol  wagon. 
There  were  thousands  id"  fteonle  Ciinpre 
L,ated  in  the  vicinity,  and  it  seemed  as- 
if  there  might  be  a  clash  between  the 
officer-s  and  the  mob.  The  police 
promptly  pushed  the  cro.vd  asid-,  pick 
up  the  body  and  threw  it  into  the  patrol 
wagon.  The  driver  whipped  up  his 
horses  and  the  wagon  started  "ff  wi'l. 
"iOOO  people  running  after  it  and  clamor- 
ing for  the  cremation  of  the  body.  The 
wagon  was  fleeter  than  the  mob,    and 


will  be  secured  from  a  point  near  Wilton

while  temiiornrily  depressing,  may  later 
on  prove  a  boomerang.  It  is  well  to  b«ar 
in  mind  that  such  sales  demand  a  deliv- 
ery of  No.  ]  northern  or  No.  2  red  so 
admittedly  scarce  in  prospects  and  not 
Kansas  wheat  which  is  not  deliverable 
here  as  contract.  Our  most  conservative 
correspondents.  In  whose  judgment  we  ex- 
pect explicit  faith  claim  no  crop  for  the 
Northwest  sufficient  to  supply  demand 
for  bread,  seed  and  country  mills  and  even 
with  extravagant  (Scajes  made  as  to 
wheat  still  on  hand  up  fhel'e  indicate  'no 
exportable  surplus  of  c«nsef|uence.  A  very 
satisfactory  cash  Inquiry  has  sprung  up 
already  and  is  taking  care  of  the  large 
winter  wheat  movement  while  relative 
values  favor  American  wheat.  France  will 
have  S6.0«>0.t^lO  bus  less  than  last  year, 
British  territories  will  not  have  more  than 
1S.00<.>.(H1«  bus.  nothing  to  export.  That 
the.se  influences  may  not  be  felt  imme- 
diately Is  true,  but  looking  ahead  and 
from  an  investment  standpoint  k  Is  our 
opinion  that  anv  holdings  of  wheat  are 
protected  from  permanent  loss  by  these 
prospects  emanating  from  fact.^  and  not 
from  theories. 

The  corn  market  has  dragged  specula- 
tively all  week.  Range  of  prices  has  been 
n.irrow  and  outside  interest  conspicuous 
by  Its  absence.  This  fact  has  been  an  off- 
set to  a  remarkably  excellent  cash  demand 
and  In  values  have  not  been  as  responsive 
as  the  situation  warrants.  Stocks  and  de- 
mand parctlcally  represent  the  bullish  in- 
gredient of  corn.  The  former  being  ex- 
ceptie.nally  small,  while  the  latter  is  ex- 
ceptirtnally  good.  Prospects  for  the  com- 
ing crop  could  scarcely  be  imt)roved  upon 
and  have  been  speculative  hammer  by 
which  values  have  been  driven  to  these 
low  points.  This  hammer,  however.  In  out 
opiincn  is  hitting  the  wrong  nail  on  the 
head.  If  its  force  were  employed  upon  the 
deferred  futures  entirely  some  consistency 
might  be  allowed,  but  as  an  argument 
airainst  .\tipust  and  September  jirices  be- 
ing maintained  is  scaicelv  In  line  with 
common  sense.  Viewing  the  iiindltlor.  of 
corn  stocks  at  almost  a  vanishing  jwinl 
and  seeing  nothing  to  warrant  any  decline 
In  cash  demand  while  no  new  corn  is  po.'- 
sible  till  well  on  toward  December,  why 
should  the  actual  commeirial  value  of 
an  article  be  affected  by  a  continge.nny 
non-effective  upon  present  supply  and  le- 
piand  conditions.  Certainly  the  ncord  of 
cash  acceptances,  an  extraordinary  do- 
m<'stie  and  foreign  demand  are  not  rep- 
resented Intrinsirallv  bv  riling  quotations 
on  August  and  Septembir  c  pMons  and  In 
our  fallible  opinion  will  not  be  utll  a  good 
man.v  more  i)oints  are  gained  in  these  rp- 
tions.  It  is  well  to  remember  that  the 
factor  which  brought  about  excellent 
prices  during  the  past  year  was  perma- 
nently light  reserves  carried  over.  Thiii 
was  even  more  pronounced  in  regard  to 
the  reserves  of  1900.  It  will  do  to  sell  corn 
on  ralller,  but  certainly  r.ot  on  wtak 
spots. 

The  oat  market  has  hoen  «iulet  within  a 
narrow  range,  an  ea.-sv  fueling  "eflected 
upon  the  outside.  Senuni'ml  \a  quite  bear- 
ish, based  on  prospect .5  for  the  .growing 
crop.  \\'e  must  say  that  we  see  very  little 
on  thi-  long  side  to  mak«  i:~  advocate  that 
side  at  nresent  and  aie  incllne-l  to  believe 
that  oats  are  a  mucii  bett.-r  sale  than  a 
piirebase  around   these   figures.

ply  Monday  is  likely  to  show  a  fa*-  in-

lation.  together  with  large  receipts,  a  good 
export  ilemaiiil  is  ne<-tssary  to  prevent 
prices  fiom  declining  still  further.  This  is 
a  temporary  condition,  and  later  on  the 
shortage  In  the  Northwest  will  begin  to 
tell  and  result  in  Higher  prices.  Estimated 
recel!)ts  for  Monday.  252  cars. 

The  corn  market  held  very  strong  all 
day.  considering  the  weakness  in"  wneat.

demand  is  good.  Trade  was  rather  light 
all  day.  The  undertone  to  the  m;irket  was 
firm.  The  legitimate  situation  continues 
strong  with  demand  exceeding  the  sup-

to  show  a  large  decrease.  We  firmly  be- 
lieve In  corn  around  present  pri'^.s  and 
advise  buying  on  all  weak  spots.  Estimat- 
ed receipts  for  Monday.  253  cars. 

There  was  only  a  light  trade  in  oatSsto- 
day  and  the  market  rt,(led  etisier  in  sym-

GLOSiNQ  WAS  HEAVY 

WHh  Slight  Net  Ciianges- 

Feeble  Rallies  In  a 

Few  Cases. 


New  York,  July  28.— Business  was  small 
and  was  confined  to  the  specialties  al  I'^e 
opening.  Prices  were  opened  a  fraction 
high  all  around,  but  Sugar  Immediaiglv 
broke  violently  about  3  points  under  an 
avalanche  of  offerings  and  unsettled  tr.e 
whole  market.  Sugar  met  support  at  124 
and  the  recovery  to  126  was  hastened  Ly 
the  anxiety  of  the  shorts  to  cover  at  a  fa- 
vorable level.  While  there  was  soiile  in- 
dications of  strength  In  other  leading 
stocks,  not  mu»  h  headway  was  made.  The 
demand  was  insignificant.  At  11  o'clock  a 
free  selling  movement  in  Brooklyn  Transit 

forced  it  down  I's.  Sugar  was  then  ham- 
mered for  over  a  poin  and  the  entire  list 
succumbed  fractionally.  Some  of  the  lead- 
ing specialties  were  bid  up,  but  did  not 
hold,  the  lowest  prices  of  the  morning  oc- 
curring after  the  bank  statement.  Metro- 
politan Street  Railway  fell  li,;.  and  North- 
western 3.  The  decline  was  checked  when 
prices  were  slightly  below  last  nignt's 
level.  Very  feeble  rallies  were  made  in  a 
few  cases.  The  closing  was  dull  and  heavy 
with  slisrht  net  changes.

ARE  BADLY  DAWABED 

Brain  Ratiis  Are  Now  Lower 

From  Duluth  Tlian  From 

Dliioago. 


Detroit,  Jul..-  28.— (Special  to  The  Her- 
ald.)—The  steiimers  Jajnes  Watt  and  Ma 
ruba  collided  it  Grassy  point  (in  the  De- 
troit river  last  night).  Both  ships  were 
badly  batterer  but  were  kept  afloat.  Thoy 
arrived  here  early  today  and  the  Watt 
went  Intft  thf  uppor  dock.  The  stem  Is 
knocked  off  ard  her  forward  compartment 
Is  full  of  water.  The  anchor  of  tne  Watt 
and  700  feet  of  cable  Is  hanging  from  the 
port  side  of  .he  Maruba  abreast  of  the 
boiler  house,  xvhere  it  was  thrown  by  the 
force  of  the  collision.  The  Marabas  side

DULUT4   BEATS  CHICAGO. 

Chicago,  July  2!s.— For  the  first  time-  in 
the  commercial  history  of  the  great  lakes, 
grain  rates  from  Duluth  to  Eastern  ports 
are  lower  now  than  from  Chicago. 

In  former  y.'ar.<!  the  Duluth  rates  have 
been  \c  to  3c  a  bushel  higher  than  those 
from  this  port.  Now  thrre  is  a  difference 
of  from  Vsc  to  Ic  against  Chicago,  which, 
in  the  opinion  of  grain  dealers  and  vtssel 
men,   is  due  tc    the  condition  of  thi>  rfver. 

Owners  and  agents  all  over  the  lakes  are 
refusing  to  seid  their  l>oats  to  the  south 
branch  of  the  river  on  account  of  the  cur- 
rent caused  b>  the  sanitary  canal  and  the 
height  of  tht  tunnels. 

The  coal  trade  also  is  declared  to  l>e  go- 
ing away  from  the  city  as  the  result  of  a 
lack  of  improvament. 

LOOKING  FOR  MORE  TUGS. 
<'apt,  Charl'S  Mayth.im.  president  of

)iany,  was  one  of  the  passengers  on  the

several  days  liere  looking  over  the  local 
situation.  He  occupied  |)art  of  today  In 
talking  with  Iccal  vesselmen.  He  express- 
es himself  as  teing  very  well  satisfied  with 
the  ctmditions  in  the  tug  business,  a:id 
with  the  progress  made  by  the  independent 
Hue  since  Its  entrance  In  the  field  in  com- 
petition with  the  trust  last  spring,  both 
here  and  else  .vhere.  The  Maytham  line 
has  done  a  good  btisiness  here  as  well  as 
at  Buffalo  and  other  ports.  Capt.  May- 
tham says  thi>t  he  will  iirobably  have  to 
hierease  his  flfet  In  Duluth  shortly.  He  Is 
now  bioklng  for  tugs,  and  the  local  office 
will  receive  the  fir.«t  addition   to  the  fleet.

Huddersfield,  England,  as  a  naunicipal- 
Ity  owns  all  the  public  utilities  and  near- 
ly everything  else  in  t>ie  town.  Begin- 
ning life  in  a  model  dwelling  owned  by 
the  town,  the  young  workman  goes  iJ 
his  wDrk  in  a  municipal  train.  saVB  the 
Baltimore  Herald.  He  gets  hia  gas  or 
electric  light  from  the  city,  hla  wife 
hires  her  gas  stove  from  the  city,  pur- 
chases fter  provisions  from  the  city  mar- 
ket and  .sends  the  week's  washl*--  to> 
the  municipal  washerwoman.  Their 
children  play  in  the  city  parks,  their 
dust-bin  is  cleaned  out  by  the  town  au- 
thoritlef?,  and  their  letters  are  collected 
by  a  tram,  the  property  of  the  town.  If 
they  are  ill  they  are  removed  to  the  town 
hospital;  if  they  are  unlucky  In  linancial 
matters  they  find  a  home  in  the  munlcl- 
paJ  lodging  houfses,  and  when  they  die. 
rich  or  poor,  they  are  buried  by  ♦he 
town  in  a  cemetery  owned  by  the  town. 

The  city  of  Artena,  in  Italy,  claims  the 
undisputed    record   of    having   no    man 
among  its  inhabitants  who  has  not  either 
committed    murder   or    tried    to   do   so. 
For  two  centuries  the  Italian  authorities 
have  ignored  its  existence,  and  when  any 
criminal    succeeds    in    escaoing    to    Ar- 
j  tena.  he  is  left  alone.     As  such  wavfar- 
ers  reach  the  town  they  are  asked  what 
I  crime  tCtey  have  committed,  and  should 
I  they  nit  be  able  to  give  very  clear  proof 
that  they  have   really  committed  soiuft 
!  offense  in  the  eye  of  the  law,   they  are 
i  refused    admittance.       Some    criminale, 
i  seeing  the  humorous  side  of  this,  surrep- 
titiously  posted    the    following:      "It    Is 
easier  for  a  camel  to  pass  through  the 
eve   of   a   needle   than    for  an    innocent 
man  to  enter  Artena." 

A  recent  traveler  in  Bavaria  writes: 
"We  entered  the  town  of  Nuremburg. 
It  is  the  birthplace  of  the  doll.  The  ar- 
chives claim  that  the  first  dolls  which 
were  made  after  the  likeness  of  men 
were  made  in  Nuremburg  1600  years  ago. 
From  that  date  to  the  present  did  every 
workingman.  woman  and  child,  savt* 
those  who  cater  to  the  wants  of  the  In- 
habitants, spends  life  making  dolls.  The 
whole  town  lives  upon  dolls,  rates  and 
every  kind  of  tax  being  paid  by  the 
price  of  dolly  freedom.  Over  30,000.000 
dolls  are  exported  yearly." 

COOL  FURNISHINGS. 

India  gra^  cloth  is  one  of  the  best  fab- 
rics for  furniture  covering  In  the  summer 
time.  It  not  only  looks  cool,  but  Is  soft 
and  not  expensive.  It  is  excellent  for  pil- 
low and  cushion  coverings  and  for  cover- 
ing couches,  chairs  ann  the  tops  of  ta- 
bles. It  comes  In  stripes  of  many  varie- 
ties, colored  in  the  satisfactory  Oriental 
fashion,  and  Is  adaptable  to  almost  any 
kind  of  wood,  although  It  looks  partlcular- 
Iv  well  with  the  green  stain  so  much  »i» 
fa.shion   for  summer  furniture. 

Large  tassels,  made  of  linen  thread.  In 
the  same  colors  as  the  grass  doth,  are 
most  effective  for  cniuh  corners  and  the 
like.

IN  HOT  WEATHER. 

Three  months  of  vegetarianism  would 
do  everyone  good,  but  since  we  are  ne>t 
all  inclined  to  such  radical  change.-! 
there  is  left  to  us  the  sensible  change  to 
lighter  meats,  which  proves  as  rlelight- 
ful  as  beneficial.  Lamb.  veal,  piiultry, 
boiled  and  broiled  ham,  bacon  and, 
above  all,  fish,  give  a  wide  range  of 
choice.  Fish  is  the  ideal  summer  meat- 
food,  lx)th  for  health's  sake  and  for  en- 
joyment. 

For  hot-weather  breakfast  there 
should  always  be  one  elish  that  has  a 
"snap"  tc  it,  a  something  to  jirovoke 
appetite.  Thi.s  is  lust  the  role  for  deli- 
cated.v  prejiared  salt-fish  dishes  (promi- 
nt  ntly  among  tlieni  haddie),  for  curries, 
and  other  highly  seasoned  dislies  that 
are  not  heavv. 

Bacon  should  rarely  be  left  ".ff  the 
breakfast  menu.

It  is  more  often  than  not  that  the  small-

discovery  of  some  new  celestial  body,  says 
the  Boston  Globe.  Indeed,  the  Instrument 
bv  which  the  German  astronomer  discov- 
ered the  new  planet  Eros  at  the  Urania 
observatory.  In  Berlin,  cannot  be  des- 
cribed as  one  of  the  gigantic  ones.  Be- 
fore the  discovery  of  Eros  the  nearest 
nlanet  to  the  earth  was  Venus,  whlci  at 
certain  times  apnroached  our  globe  to 
within  25.000.000  miles.  Eros,  how-ever,  our 
nearest  neighbor  in  space,  is  about  H.'^W  -

The  present  army  on  a  war  footing  con- 
sists of  not  less  than  360.000  men  of  all 
arms.  The  development  of  the  navy  during 
tho  last  Ave  years  has  been  even  more  re- 
markable. Japan  has  in  this  time  acquired 
four  new  flrst-class  battleships  with  a 
gross  tonnage  of  about  50.000  and  a  com- 
plement of  2700  men,  while  two  more  such 
ships  are  building  in  England  and  soon  will 
be  delivered.  TO  the  six  cruisers  of  the 
iecona  class  have  been  added  three  new 
ones.  Twelve  torpedo  boat  destroyers  are 
built  or  building,  some  in  Sngland  and 
others  in  France  and  Germany,  which, 
added  to  the  flotilla,  will  make  the  full 
complement  twenty  such  boats.  Six  new 
first-class  cruisers  have  been  built,  four 
of  which  are  already  in  Japanese  waters, 
while  the  other  two  will  be  there  within  a 
few  tveeka  Altogether  the  navy  of  Japan 
now  has  a  tonnage  of  between  210,000  an! 
Llti.tiOO.  and  Is  far  ahead  of  that  of  Russm. 
The  merchant  marine  of  Japan  has  like- 
wise  been  developed  greatly  during  these 
six  years.  The  tonnage  has  been  increased 
from  15.").000  to  nearly,   if  not  quite.  eVl.tW. 


The  question  is  be- 
ing   much     discussed 
in     military     circles 
whether     our     army 
officers  expose  them- 
selves too  much,  or  whether  the  mortaiily 
among   them   Is   simply   the   result    of   the 
prominence   they    must    take    in    carry   on 
their    duty.      Gen.    Miles,    who    .saw    four 
years  of  fighting  in  the  civil  war.  and  l.as 
been  in  many   Indian   fights,  not  to  men- 
tion the  Porto  Rico  campaign,  denies  that 
our  officers  are  foolhardy.     He  points  out 
that    an    efficient    colonel    must    from    the 
nature  of  his  fhities  be  conspicuous  to  the 
enemy.    Gen.  Miles  says:     "The  colonel  Is 
generally  to  be  found  with  the  colors  in 
the  center   of    the   regiment,    the   lieuten- 
ant   colonel    commanding   the    rigrtt    w:ng 
and  the  senior  major  the  left.     The  regi- 
ment  guides  on    the   colors.     If   they   are 
advanced    the    command    moves    forward. 
If  they  are  moved  back  the  alignment   is 
still  kept  by  a  backward  movement.  Next 
to  the  colonel  the  most  dangerous  i>osition 
is  that  of  color  bearer,  and  I   saw  at  the 
battle  of  Antietam  twelve  men  successive- 
ly killed  as  they  one  by  one  picked  up  ani 
:-arried    o:i    the    colors."      Another    officer 
points  out  that  In  handling  a  line  of  sckir- 
mishers    their    commander   must    be   in    a 
position  to  see  how  they  are  working.     lie 
would  be  us»*Iess  if  he  hugged  cover  close- 
ly.    Maj.    Devol,    recently    returned    from 
the  Philippines,   thinks  on  the  other  hand 
that  our  officers  take  altogether  too  ma:iv 
high    risks,    but    relates   an    anecdote       ol 
Lawton  that   rather  militates  against  this 
theory:    •'Once  his  officers  noticed  that  ne 
was    standing    on    a   bridge   ahead    of    his 
men.   a    tall,   upright   figure,    making       an 
ideal    tarsret    f"r    P'iliiiino    sharpshooters. 
They  would   have  killed   him   long  before 
If    they   could    have   shot       straight.     We 
went  to  him  and  begged  him  to  come  back. 
He  turned  to  us  and  said:     'I  am  not  do- 
ing this  for  show.    I  am  not  trying  to  pose. 
But   I   have  always  felt   that  the   risk  an 
officer  takes  is  rewarded  by  the  additional 
courage   with    which    it    inspires    his    sol- 
diers."    The  officer's  place   is  where  duty 
and    his    perception    of    the    situation    lell 
him  he  should  be.    An  officer  who  percept- 
ibly avoids  risks  soon  loses  the  confidence 
of  his  men,   and    he  also  runs      a      good 
chance  of  losing  his  commissif»n. 


JVaTMCE,NOT  '*rxXOKANCX!.'* 

In  an  editorial  on  the  Chinese  ques- 
tion the  San  Francisco  Post  says: 
"There  is  now  but  one  recourse — ven- 
geance. We  have  to  deal  with  a  people 
that  can  understand  only  the  logic  of 
violence,  and  the  argument  that  wields 
an  ax  and  enforces  its  conclusion  by  the 
oflRce  of  the  headsman.  •  •  •  The 
business  in  hand  is  vengeance."  There 
is  a  column  or  two  of  this  "rot."  For- 
tunately the  papers  that  thus  spread 
themselves  do  not  speak  for  the  govern- 
ment. There  is,  and  will  be,  no  element 
of  "vengeance"  in  the  matter.  "Ven- 
sreance"  indicates  and  includes  fierce 
and  unreasoning  wrath,  white-heated 
anger,  and  we  shall  deal  with  China  in 
no  such  mood,  no  matter  how  many 
Americans  have  been  killed.  DDubtless 
we  shall  require  as  suitable  reparation 
as  the  circumstances  will  permit,  but  we 
are  sufficiently  "civilized"  to  refrain 
from  wreaking  "vengeance"  on  a  whole 
country  on  account  of  the  fury  of  a 
mob.  And  when  all  is  thought  of.  it 
will  be  remembered  that  the  Chinese 
have  suffered  long  and  aggravating 
provocation.  We  will  deal  with  them 
not  on  the  heathen  plane  of  "vengeance." 
but  on  the  civilized  and  Christian  plan 
of  justice,  weighing  the  load  on  their 
side  of  the  scales,  as  well  as  that  on  our 
Ride.  If  we  do  not,  we  are  no  better  than 
the  Boxers. 

To  wreak  "vengeance"  on  the  Chinese 
people  because  a  small  fraction  of  their 
number,  known  as  tCie  Boxers,  have 
risen  in  rebellion  against  the  constituted 
authorities  and  have  attacked  the  for- 
eigners, would  place  us  on  a  level  with 
the  worst  barbarians.  It  would  disgrace 
the  United  States  in  the  eyes  of  all 
civilized  people — and  those  who  offer 
such  advice  are  not  civilized,  but  bar- 
baric. Only  a  few  days  ago  the  News 
Tribune  of  this  city  insulted  every  true 
American  by  advocating  the  murder  of 
the  Chinese  in  this  country.  Said  this 
peculiar  product  of  modern  civilization: 
'Of  course  the  Chinese  in  this  country 
are  in  danger.  If  once  it  is  established 
as  a  fact  that  the  foreigners  in  China 
have  been  massacred,  the  United  States 
can  be  depended  upon  to  return  murder 
for  murder." 

The  newspaper  that  would  publish  such 
an  incitement  to  riot  and  murder  is  a 
disgrace  to  American  journalism,  and 
it  should  be  and  will  be  condemned  by 
all  Christian  people.  The  sentiment  ex- 
pressed in  that  article  does  not  represent 
the  views  of  the  people  of  Duluth  nor 
of  any  other  part  of  this  country.  The 
Chinese  in  America  have  nothing  in  ct)m- 
mon  with  the  Boxers.  They  come  from 
a  different  part  of  China,  and  do  not 
even  speak  the  same  language.  For  the 
most  part,  the  Chinese  in  this  country 
are  law-abiding,  industrious  people, 
whose  conduct  might  well  be  patterned 
after  by  some  of  those  bloodthirsty  in- 
dividuals who  are  shouting  for  "ven- 
geance" and  advocatiivg  "murder  for 
murder." 


The  Blight- 
ing  Htrenyth 


If  Japan  Is  to  take 
the  initiative  in  the 
work  to  be  done  In 
China.  she  is  well 
equipped    for   It.    Since 

the  Japanese-Chinese  war,  which  ended  in 
a  victory  for  the  Japanese.  China  has  re- 
habilitated her  forces  and  may  be  said  to 
have  created  a  new  army  and  navy.  The 
following        is        from  an        authentic 

source:  The  fighting  strength  of 
Japan  ha.s  been  mor?  than  dou- 
bled since  the  time  of  her  victorious 
war  against  China  in  18W.  Then  she  had 
an  army  of  en.flOO  men,  and  her  navy  con- 
sisted of  one  small  battleship,  half  a  dozen 
cruisers  of  the  second  class  and  an  insig- 
nificant torpedo  flotilla.  At  the  close  of  the 
war  Japan  exacted  an  indemnity  of  J82..50J.. 
n»io,  and  this  money  she  has  devoted  to  in- 
creasing and  reorganizing  her  army  and 
building  a  new  navy.  By  the  end  of  1S98 
the  land  forces  had  been  Increased  so  that 
there  were  120.0WI  men  with  the  colors, 
besides  4o40  students  in  the  military 
schools.      There    were    two    reserves,    one

Official  and  private  statistics  show 
that  the  world's  copper  production  dur- 
ing last  year  reached  the  total  of  473,SIS 
tons.  The  Ignited  States  stands  at  th*' 
head  of  the  list  with  a  total  of  265.156 
trns,  and  an  increase  over  the  preceding 
year  of  25.915  tons.  There  is  not  an- 
other country  which  can  compare  with 
the  United  States  in  this  respect.  Spain 
and  Portugal  come  nearest  to  it  with  a 
total  of  53.720  tons.  Chile  tlgures  in  the 
table  with  25,000,  and  Germany  with 
2.:.460  tons.  The  Argentine  republic  is 
the  lowest  with  but  65  ton.^.  while 
Sweden  shows  up  with  520  and  England 
with  550  tons.  Outside  of  these  there  is 
Japan's  product  given  as  27.560.  and 
Mexico's  as  19,335  tons.  Of  this  total 
product  cf  473,818  tons.  Germany  alone 
consumed  102.618  tons,  and  will  piobal>ly 
tequire  more  hereafter. 

The  demand  for  copper  is  on  th.»  in- 
f  rease  with  the  widening  utility  of  the 
electric  current,  and  unless  a  sati.sfae- 
tory  substitute  for  copper  in  that  indus- 
try is  found  no  lessening  of  the  demand 
can  be  expected.  For  this  reason  the 
prospects  for  a  continued  /rood  price  are 
excellent,  and  the  copper  properties  now 
in  operation  in  this  country  will  continue 
to  pay  at  the  same  high  figure  .hat  has 
been  quoted  during  the  past  few  ye.nrs. 
The  danger  of  an  overproduction  is  no- 
where apparent.  In  spite  of  inor^ased 
prices  the  production  advanced  only  a 
little  over  9  per  cent  during  the  past 
year,  and  at  the  end  of  it  there  was  very 
little  stock  on  hand.  The  two  inet.ils. 
(opper  and  iron,  have  the  largest  call  in 
the  market,  and  are  destined  to  main- 
tain their  superiority  with  the  progres.' 
in  science  and  metallurgy.  From  pres- 
ent indications  this  year's  copper  profluct 
in  the  United  States  will  nearly  reach 
the  3()0.000-ton  mark,  which  will  keep 
this  country  in  the  lead  for  some  time  to 
come. 


ordered  him  to  make  good  the  .o.mount. 
Next  day  the  boy,  seeing  some  of  his 
companions  matching  pennies,  and  being 
worried  by  his  loss,  tried  to  win  the  ?3 
by  gambling.    Instead  he  lost  $2  mare^ 

But.  being  an  honest  boy,  he  'vent 
home  and  told  his  father.  Instead  cf 
being  lectuivd  and  advised  in  a  paternal 
way,  the  boy  was  arrested  and  nut  in 
Jail  at  the  instance  of  his  father.  He 
will  be  made  to  pay  .the  penalty  for 
theft. 

Here  is  a  splendid  way  to  make  a  thief 
out  of  an  hone.st  youth.  The  boy  was 
v.eeping  when  he  told  his  father  of  his 
loss.  He  did  not  weep  in  jail;  he  will 
probably  not  weep  when  he  gets  out. 
The  iron  brand  of  shame  and  despera- 
tion will  have  entered  his  soul.  He  will 
go  forth  marked  as  a  thief,  and  his 
father  will  be  responsible  therefor. 


The  Astor-Milne  episode  is.  It  appears, 
not  yet  closed.  It  Is  now  reported  that  Mr. 
Astor's  extraordinary  conduct  was  caused 
by  violent  dtsapprova)  of  Sir  Archibald  as 
a  prospective  son-in-law.  He  ejected  the 
baronet  from  his  house,  it  is  said,  as  an 
objectionable  suitor  for  the  hand  of  his 
daughter.  Sir  Archibald  seems  to  bo  a 
persistent  gentleman,  for  he  has  followed 
the  Astors  to  Marienbad,  supposedly  with 
the  Intention  of  forcing  the  millionaire  to 
give  him  "satisfaction"  or  consent  to  his 
suit.  He  is  evidently  of  the  opinion  tiiat 
even  an  obnoxious  suitor  has  some  rights 
which  an  enraged  parent  is  bound  to  re- 
spect. 

"From  the  viewpoint  of  civil  service  re- 
form," says  the  Philadelphia  Ledger, 
"the  country  has  little  to  expect  from 
Mr.  Bryan.  It  <;an  hope,  however,  that 
Mr.  McKlnley  will  oppose  the  attempts 
that  will  surely  be  made  to  overthrow 
the  entire  merit  system."  It  is  surprising 
that  the  Ledger,  usually  fair  in  its  politi- 
cal comments,  should  credit  Mr.  McKln- 
ley with  any  desire  to  uphold  the  merit 
system,  in  view  of  his  record.  The  merit 
system  has  never  received  such  a  serious 
blow  as  during  tlie  present  administration. 
President  McKlnley  threw  open  the  doors 
to  the  spoilsmen. 

A  Presbyterian  missionary  lays  part  of 
the  blame  of  the  trouble  in  China  at  tho 
door  of  the  Qathollc  missionaries,  who,  ne 
says,  are  political  as  well  as  religious 
propagandists.  Perhaps,  if  the  Catholics 
would  express  their  opinion  of  the  Protes- 
tant missionaries,  it  might  be  equally  un- 
favorable. When  the  heathen  perceive 
the  disagreements  and  jealousies  among 
the  teachers  of  Christianity,  it  is  not 
strange  that  they  are  doubtful  of  the 
Western  religion. 

Noticing  the  revival  In  the  horse  mar- 
ket. 1000  hor-ses  having  been  sold  in  one 
day  recently  in  South  Omaha,  at  a  good 
price,  the  Omaha  Bee  gives  credit  there- 
for to  "the  stimulus  of  Republican  times, 
which  gives  work  to  both  man  and  beast." 
According  to  this  reasoning,  the  Repul>- 
llcan  party  must  be  responsible  for  all  the 
wars  that  afflict  the  world,  as  these  are 
responsible  In  a  large  degree  foir  the  de- 
mand for  horses. 

When  the  first  returns  from  tJie  recent 
Oregon  election  came  in  the  woman 
suffragists  seemed  to  be  complerteiy  sub- 
merged. The  most  populous  counties 
gave  heavy  maporitles  against  the  suf- 
frage amendment.  But  complet*"  returns 
show  that  while  the  amendment  is  defeat- 
ed, the  majority  against  It  was  small. 
There  were  2S,402  against  and  26.2B5  in  fa- 
vor. 

The  chief  difficulty  lying  in  the  way  of 
suppressing  the  Boxers  appears  U)  be  the 
fact  that  they  imagine  they  are  tigliting 
for  their  religion.  They  believe  that  the 
foreigners  want  to  compel  them  to  aban- 
don their  religion  and  accept  that  preached 
by  the  missionaries. 

Doubtful  states,  says  the  Chicsigo  Rec- 
ord, are  those  that  did  not  cast  their  vote 
for  McKlnley  four  years  ago  If  you  are  a 
Republican,  and  those  that  did  not  go  fur 
Bryan  if  you  are  a  Democrat. 

It  Is  rumored  that  Siegel,  Cooper  &  Co.. 
of  Chicago  and  New  York,  are  .seriously 
considering  the  establishment  of  a  depart- 
ment store  on  the  American  plan  In  Loi  -

There  Is  considerable  fighting  still  going 
on  in  South  Africa,  but  the  Chinese  trou- 
ble Is  overshadowing  news  from  that  sec- 
tion of  the  world. 

The  Republican  campaign  managers  do 
not  want  an  extra  session  of  congress. 
They  have  enough  troubles  now. 

The  Chicago  newspapers  are  discussing 
the  subject  of  bathing  as  if  it  were  some- 
thing new  in  Chicago. 

Again  there  is  good  reason  to  believe 
that   the   legationers  at   Pekin   are  safe. 


HOW  TO  MAKE  A  TMEEF. 

The  following  receipt  for  making  a 
thief  is  furnished  by  the  New  York  Jour- 
nal: 

In  Jersey  City  a  parent  owpt  sixty- 
seven  houses  and  more  lot.?  than  there 
are  squares  on  a  checkerboard.  His 
15- year-old  son  has  collected  the  rents 
for  three  years  without  '.win.:?  a  penny 
until  last  week,  when  he  lost  $3.

The  Chinese   war  is   likely    to  be   ended

THE  SHUDDERING  ANGEL. 

Our  Fellow  Creatures:  A  picture  has  re- 
cently been  painted  by  a  great  artist  In 
Europe  delineating  the  mournful  sacrifice 
of  bird  life  to  woman's  vanity.  ITpon  a  ta- 
ble were  strewn  the  dead  bodies  of  birds 
denuded  of  their  beautiful  plumage,  and 
over  them  bends  an  angel  in  an  attitude  of 
grief  and  shame,  clad  in  mourning  gar- 
ments, with  the  hands  pressed  over  the 
eyes  as  if  to  shut  out  the  piteous  sight. 

Women  who  read  must  know  of  the  dire- 
ful cruelties  involved  in  the  capture  of 
birds  for  their  plumage. 

Are  the  women  who  wear  bird  plumage 
willing  to  be  called  cruel  and  careless— 
or  are  they  women  who  do  not  read? 

Let  them  not  argue  that  the  abandon- 
ment of  feather  decorations  by  one  woman 
would  not  effect  the  merchandise  of  them, 
but  let  each  woman  resolve  to  render  her- 
self guiltless  in  this  matter. 

It  is  pitiable  to  .see  feathers  on  the  hats 
of  Christian  women;  pitiable  that  every 
minister,  though  the  professed  expounder 
of  the  gospel  of  love  and  mercy,  does  not 
denounce  this  fashion  which  is  the  off- 
spring of  such  bitter  wrongs  to  the  in- 
nocent. 

The  plea  that  many  decorative  birds  are 
manufactured  helps  the  matter  very  little. 
In  this  as  in  other  things  it  is  virtue  to 
avoid  the  appearance  of  evil.  i.  e.,  in  this 
case  the  use  of  everything  re.sembllng  the 
destruction  of  bird  life.  Many  women  in 
our  land  adhere  to  this  rule,  without  any 
sacrifice  of  beauty  or  taste  in  dress. 

Will  Jt*t  ftedeemed. 

Swift  County  Monitor:  From  all  Indica- 
tions the  fusio'n  fonces  in  the  Seventh  dis- 
trict will  have  this  year  something  they 
never  had  before— good  organization. 
While  the  Democrats  and  Populists  will 
maintain  separate  organizations,  they  will 
work  entirely  in  harmony  and  with  M.  J. 
Daly,  the  popular  senator  from  Ottertail 
county,  who  Is  the  fusion  nominee  for 
congress,  as  leader,  it  Is  no  idle  boast  to 
say  that  the  Republicans  will  no  longer 
have  everything  their  own  way  in  this 
district  and  from  all  Indications  it  will  be 
redeemed    from    the    Republicans. 

Ha»  Otie  Advantage. 

Midway  News:  Hon.  M.  J.  Daly  was 
nominated  for  congress  at  the  People's 
party  convention  in  Fergus  Falls,  and 
now  the  Populists  of  the  Seventh  district 
find  special  interest  in  the  Lord's  prayer. 

Battle  Lake  Review  (Rep.):  Mr.  Daly 
has  one  advantage.  He  is  a  bright,  intelli- 
gent and  honest  man.  Even  his  political 
opponents  speak  highly  of  him  and  we  un- 
derstand that  he  has  never  made  a  drunk- 
en spectacle  of  himself  at  home  or  abroad.

IS  ROOSEVELT  REALLY  BRAVE? 

New  York  Journal:  Governor  Roosevelt 
has  publicly  declared  that  all  Demot.ral.= 
are  'dishonest  and  disorderly  at  home, 
cowardly  shirkers  abroad." 

This  rough-riding  statement  makes  it 
proper  to  inquire  what  Governor  Roost- 
velt's  character  may  be  in  regard  to 
courage. 

Physical  courage,  ol  course,  is  conceded 
to  him. 

He  held  a  responsble  position  as  as- 
sistant secretary  of  tlie  navy.  In  that  po- 
sition good  characer— fertility  of  re- 
source— iiad  he  possi-ssed  either,  would 
have  made  him  Invaliable  to  the  country. 

He  gave  up  his  position  and  demanded 
a  pi  ice  in  the  limelight.  It  was  given  to 
him.  The  plain  English  of  It  was  ihat 
he  had  to  have  a  chance  to  show  off.  Ho 
got  the  chance,  and  he  showed  off  well. 
As  leaders  of  his  rough  riders  he  select- 
ed an  interesting  coll*  ctlon  of  young  New- 
York  dudes— and  then-  Is  not  the  slightest 
question  that  they  all  showed  excellent 
grit  together.  There  is  no  question  that 
with  80.000.000  people  looking  on  Roosevelt 
is  physically  brave.  But  plenty  of  men 
are  brave  under  such 
Democrats,  sometimet.  In  fact,  there  were 
Democrats  among  th?  rough  riders. 

Roosevelt  is  not  a  coward  In  the  lime- 
light—that is  settled. 

But  what  about  h;s  courage  in  other 
ways  ? 

When  he  ran  for  governor  he  promised 
to  punish  the  canal  thieves.  They  were  all 
Republicans.  They  ha.j  behind  them  Plati, 
who  could  help  Roosevelt  to  higher  place. 
Roosevelt  did  nothing  to  them. 

In  dealing  with  the  canal  ring  Roosevelt 
deliberately  broke  hi^  word— there  is  no 
question  at  all  about  that. 

Did  he  not  also  show  moral  cowardice? 

In  New  York  the  Jcurnal  has  convicted 
Mayor  Van  Wyck  of  taking  bribes  from 
the  ice  trust,  of  selling  out  the  city  to  a 
gang  of  merciless  plunderers. 

The  mayor  is  a  Democrat— that  did  not 
protect  him  from  att  ick  by  the  Journal. 

But  the  trust  Is  £  Republican  trust. 
Piatt's  son  is  in  It. 

And  that  does  prott  ct  Van  Wyck  from 
the   Republican  governor.   Roosevelt. 

Roosevelt  has  the  power  to  remove  him. 
It  is  his  duty  to  remove  Van  Wyck.  for 
Van    Wyck    has    confi'ssed. 

But  the  governor  does  nothing. 

Is    not    that    cowarcly? 

It  has  been  suggested  that  the  governor 
Is  "saving  up  "  Van  V/yck  to  remove  him 
for  political  effect  just   before  election. 

But  would  not  that  be  a  sort  of  moral 
cowardice? 

Time  will  tell  how  much  real  bravery 
there  is  in  the  Roosfvelt  who  advertises 
himself  as  the  bravesi  man  In  the  world— 
the  bravest  man  living  or  dead;  the  brav- 
est man  possible. 

Of  course  Roosevelt  ought  to  know.  But 
we  should  not  be  surprised  to  learn  that 
the  man  who  denounces  all  Democrats 
as  dishonest  and  cowardly  is  something 
of  a  coward  himself  at  bottom. 

It  is  well  known  by  reporters  wlio  have 


Interviewed  him.  bv  politicians  who  have 
come  in  contact  with  him,  that  his  word 
Is  worthless. 

But  perhaps  that  will  do  to  keep  for  an 
other  day. 

Only  the  Ueginnittg. 

Philadelphia  Record:  There  Is  manifest 
partiality  in  the  administration's  bestowal 
of  imperial  favors.  Thus  while  the  carpel- 
bag  satrap  of  Porto  Rico  has  a  magnificent 
and  luxuriously  furnished  government 
yacht  (the  Mayfiower)  to  convey  him  to 
and  from  his  official  post,  the  military  gov- 
ernor of  Cuba  is  obliged  to  make  his  trips 
by  the  regular  steamship  lines.  But  Gov- 
ernor Allen's  use  of  the  Mayfiower  may, 
perhaps,  be  regarded  aa  only  a  tentative 
beginning  in  order  that  the  country  may 
become  used  to  the  ways  of  imperialism. 
After  a  while  every  colonial  pro-consul  and 
starap  may  hope  to  have  his  luxurious 
yacht,  at  the  expense  of  the  government, 
to  carry  him  around  his  Insular  domain.

was  played  by  Mr.  Borch  with  a  re- 
markable calm,  showing  that  he  masters 
his  instrument  perfectly.    He  gets  from 

his  'cello  a  beautiful  tone."

"While  reading  the  morning  paper  at 
breakfast,  I  frequently  read  over  the  ad- 
vertisements of  Postum  Food  Coffee  and 
finally  began  to  wonder  if  it  was  a  fact 
that  my  daily  headache  and  dyspepsia 
were  due  to  coffee  drinking. 

"It  never  occurred  to  me  that  the 
warning  fitted  my  case. 

"I  had  been  on  the  diet  cure  for  more 
than  ten  years,  having  tried  a  strictly 
meat  diet,  also  a  strictly  vegetable  diet, 
and  at  other  times  left  off  breakfast  for 
a  time  and  again  left  off  dinner,  but  all 
these  efforts  were  futile  In  ridding  me  of 
the  steady  half-sick  condition  under 
which  I  labored. 

"I  had  never  once  thought  of  overhaul- 
ing 'dear  old  coffee,'  but  when  it  finally 
occurred  to  me  to  make  the  trial  and 
take  up  Postum,  I  immediately  discov- 
ered where  the  difficulty  all  these  vears 
came  from.  I  now  eat  anything  for 
breakfast,  as  much  as  1  desire,  doing  jus- 
tice to  a  good  meal,  and  the  same  at 
lunch  and  dinner,  with  never  a  headache 
or  other  disagreeable  symptom.  My  only 
'crankiness'  now  is  to  know  that  I  have 
Postum  served  as  it  should  be  made: 
that  is,  properly  boiled.  There  is  a  vast 
difference  between  poorly  made  Postum 
and  good. 

"C.  E.  Hasty,  of  Alameda,  Cal.,  Insists 
that  he  owes  his  life  to  me  because  I  in- 
troduced him  to  Postum.  I  have  a  num- 
ber of  friends  who  have  been  finally 
cured  of  stomach  and  bowel  trouble  by 
the  use  of  Postum  Food  Coffee  in  place 
of  regular  coffee.

Auxiliary  of  the  same  order  was  held 
last  Tuesday  at  O-at-ka  beach  and  was 
one  of  the  most  delightful  the  order  has 
ever  given.  The  attendance  was  large 
throughout  the  day  and  the  spot  select- 
ed for  the  picnic  met  with  universal 
approval.  The  air  was  clear  and  cool 
and  the  fresh  breezes  from  the  lake 
were  very  welcome.  All  the  afternoon 
and  evening  every  car  that  went  to  the 
auditorium  at  the  end  of  the  line  was 
jammed  with  friends  of  the  order.  The 
afternoon  was  given  over  to  sports  and 
there  was  a  variety  of  Interesting  con- 
tests that  were  entered  into  with  great 
jest.  There  was  lots  of  fun  poked  at 
the  contestants  but  they  did  not  mind 
that  and  relaxed  none  of  their  efforts. 
In  the  evening  the  pavilion  was 
crowded  with  dancers  and  the  attrac- 
tions of  the  floor  and  the  music  proved 
so  strong  that  the  last  car  up  town  was 
fairly  swamped.  It  was  a  memorable 
picnic  and  every  member  of  the  order 
was  thoroughly  satisfied.

VISIT  DULUTH, 

President  Mellen  and  Other 

Northern  Pacific  Officials 

Arrive  Here. 

A  special  train  benring  I'resii'cnl 
C        S.        Mellen  and  a        large 

party  of  the  Northern       Pacific 

railway  officials,  arrived  in  the  city  last 
night,  en  route  to  the  Pacific  coast  lo 
make  the  annual  inspection  of  the  system. 

President  Mellen  in  an  interview  siti;i 
that  the  comrany  will  probably  spt  nd 
more  money  in  liuluth  in  the  ne.vt  tv  ,• 
or  three  years  than  at  any  other  pxin; 
on  the  line.  While  the  joint  ownership  •>■ 
the  North-.'rn  Pacific  ami  ihe  St.  Paul  & 
Duluth  ro'i  ]«.  bis  interfereii  with  some  of 
the  improvnieius  .ilaniied  at  the  head  of 
the  lakes,  the  company  will,  he  says, 
make  radical  change.s  in  the  terminal  fa- 
cilities that  will  cost  a  great  deal  oi 
money.  The  work  may  be  commenced  .'tt 
no  far  distant  day.  President  Mellen  h  s 
Unbounded  faith  m  Duluth's  future  aiid 
.«aid  that,  had  it  not  beeii  for  :he  bel'ef 
that  Duluth  will  become  a  larger  city,  so 
large  a  price  would  not  have  been  piid 
for  the  St.  Paul  i"t  Duluth  road. 

In  regard  to  ihe  reported  traffic  agree- 
ment between  the  Noithern  Pacific  a.id 
the  Milwauk<?e  to  Duluth,  whereby  the 
latter  will  run  passenger  trains  into  Du- 
luth over  the  former  company's  track''. 
President  Mellen  said  that  negotiations 
are  now  in  progress  between  the  two  com- 
panies concerning  the  traffic  agreement 
mentioned,  and  it  is  now  only  a  question 
of  terms.  President  Mellen  had  no  opin- 
ion to  express  on  the  crop  situation  other 
than  that  he  expected  to  be  better  poslel 
on  the  same  when  he  returned. 

The  party  arrived  last  night  over  tne 
Duluth  Short  Line  from  St.  Paul  and  left 
this  mornlg  for  a  visit  on  the  Brainerd  & 
Northern  road. 

The  Northern  Pacific  party  is  composed 
of  the  following  named  gentlemen:  C.  S. 
Mellen,  president:  J.  W.  Kendrick,  second 
vice  president  and  general  manager;  J.  M. 
Hannaford,  third  vice  president  and  gen- 
eral traffic  manaeer:  E.  L.  Moore,  general 
freight  agent;  Charles  S.  Fee.  general 
ticket  agent:  A.  E.  Law,  acting  general 
superintendent,  and  Mr.  Lovell.  super- 
intendent of  motive  power,  all  Northern 
Pacific  officials.  In  addition  to  the  fore- 
eoinp  E.  A.  Gay,  private  secretarv  to 
President  Mellen.  is  with  the  partv."  Th^ 
party  from  St.  Paul  was  joined  here  by 
a  number  of  orominent  Eastern  men  who 
arrived  on  the  North  Land  and  went 
West  with  the  special  train  this  morning. 
Among  those  were  E.  D.  Adams,  presi- 
dent of  the  Niagara  Falls  Power  com- 
pany and  a  director  of  the  Northern  Pa- 
cific road;  George  F.  Baker,  president  of

Finest  Spot   to  Feel  Cool 

Breezes  In  This  Warm 

Weather  Is  Pavilion. 

Whether  stranger  or  citizen,  there  is  a 
rrmcdy  for  the  pers-on  In  Duluth  who  is 
afllicted  with  Ihe  h-at  or  with  the  lazy 
stupor  that  .«ometim*s  results  from  a  hot, 
close,  mugg.v  da.v.  There  is  no  more  un- 
comfortable .ssensatirn  that  that.  To  be 
hot  and  stifling  and  weary  and  lazy  and 
strongly  disinclined  to  movement  of  any 
kind  is  a  common  result  of  a  summer  days 

heat.     The  remedy  in  Duiuih  i^  clear. 

Get  on  any  car  going  toward  Seventh 
avenue  west.  Ask  the  conductor  for  a 
transfer  to  the  inclin  -.  At  Seventh  avenuc- 
get  off  the  car  and  get  into  one  of  the  great 
cars  that  make  frequent  trip.s  up  the  in- 
cline road.  In  a  few  minutes  the  conduc- 
tor of  the  car  exchanges  signals  with  the 
other  end  of  the  line,  and  the  car  starts  eiT 
smoothl.v.  It  glides  on  up  the  steep  incline, 
and  in  several  minut -s  it  Is  at  the  top.  in 
the  meantime  the  sufferer  has  been  at 
the  rear  end  of  the  (ar.  watching  the  city 
drop  down  as  the  car  goes  up.  Tlie  air  lia.s 
been  getting  imrer  and  cooler  and  moiv  re- 
freshing, and  his  vnpleasant  feeling  is 
j)a.«sing  away.  By  tlie  time  the  end  of  the 
little  trip  is  reached  the  perspiration  bus 
ceased  to  start,  the  )lood  is  fiowing  more 
freely  and  clearly,  tne  brain  is  clear  and 
active,  and  the  .«uflftrer,  no  longer  a  .suf. 
ferer,  but  an  active  recipient  of  the  pleas- 
ures afforded  by  following  out  this  pre- 
scription, is  awake  a  id  alive  to  ail  that  is 
going  on  around  him. 

The  unpleasant  things  that  he  started 
out  to  overcome  have  been  banishetl,  but 
instead  of  taking  thi-  same  car  down  the 
chances  are  that  he  will  make  for  a  seat 
on  the  front  veranda  of  the  Pavilion,  and 
stated  there,  will  further  imbibe  the  pure, 
wholesome  air  of  the  hilltop,  full  ~>t  life- 
giving  and  tonic  properties.  At  the  same 
time  he  will  comfortabl.v  gaze  ov-r  the 
peerless  picture  that  is  laid  out  before  his 
••yes.  The  short  time  he  has  si)eiit  above 
the  heated  air  of  th='  city  has  been  long 
<-ncnph  tc  place  him  in  a  condition  to 
thoroughly  enjoy  th(  glories  of  the  v'ew. 
and  by  this  time  he  i^s  half  again  a.s  much 
of  a  man  and  correfpondingl.\-  less  of  an 
automaton  than  he  was  before.  If  it  is 
e.ening  the  view  Is  softened  and  its  out- 
lines blurred  in  darkness,  intensified  i>.\  th;' 
f.-  istening  constellations  formed  by  'be 
electric  lights  that  fvinkle  in  various  di- 
rections. The  lights  are  sometimes  scat- 
tered, sometimes  clustere'd  like  an  earthen 
Milky  way.  sometimes  In  rows  like  a  neck- 
la(e  of  brilliant.". 

It  i.s  hard  to  decide  which  is  the  move 
glorious  view,  by  da>  or  by  night.  In  the 
da.vlight  it  is  perhap:?  more  spectacular 
and  scenic,  but  the  night  is  more  beautiful 
and  full  of  charm.  The  shifting  red  light.s 
of  the  lighthouses,  he  gliding  lights  of 
vessels  pasing  in  an  i  out.  together  with 
the  broad  expanse  of  electric  lights  like  a 
reflection  of  the  clear  heavens  above  make 
a  iiicture  that  will  linger  long  on  the 
m'  nr.ory. 


PEACE  IN  NEW^  ORLEANS. 

City  Quitts  Down  AHt r  thi  Dtatb  off 
CharUs. 

New  Orleans.  July  2S.— The  night  pa.>«sed 
with  little  disorder  after  the  furious  out- 
break of  .veslerday.  Prompt  action  by  the 
ma.vor  in  distributing  squads  of  men 
through   the  city  and  the  fact  that  negro 

desperado  Charles  is  dead,  seems  to  have 
had  a  good  effect  in  quieting  the  populace. 

The  negroes  are  apparently  gl»d  that 
("barle.s  is  dead.  This  morning  they  ap- 
jjeared  in  larger  number.s  than  usual  at 
the    places   where   the.v   are   emi>loyed. 

Mayor  « ".aijdevielle,  who  is  worn  out  by 
long  vigilance,  said  io<iay  that  he  thuuglit 
it  unlikely  that  there  will  be  any  further 
violence.  As  the  result  of  the  bloodshed  of 
the  past  week  feeling  is  expressed  against 
the  i>olice  board  and  there  is  some  talk  of 
its  removal  and  a  reorganization  of  the 
po'lice  force. 

Although  there  ha.T  been  no  di.sorder  to- 
day, troops  were  kept  in  their  armories  and 
.Mayor  <'apdeville  stationed  men  in  every 
(juarter  of  the  cii.v  to  quickly  advise  him 
of  any  outbreak.  S<iuads  of  citizens  and 
jiolice  were  detailed  to  patrol  districts 
where  trouble  was  most  likely  to  occur. 

.\rrangements  are  being  made  today  for 
irterment  of  the  victim.s  of  yesterday'.s 
traged.v.  and  det.-iils  will  be  sent  to  accom- 
pany each  funeral.

A  lease  for  the  cutting  of  timber,  a

FRACTURE  OF  JHE  SKULL. 

That  Was  tho  Causse  of  tho  Doath  off 
Tim  Ryan. 

The  postmortem  ej  aminatlon  held  over 
tho  hotly  of  Tim  Ryan  at  Durkan  &  Craw- 
ford's undertaking  rooms  last  evening;, 
showed  that  death  resulted  from  a  frac- 
ture of  the  skull.  R>an  was  found  earlv 
.vesterda.v  morning  o  i  the  Duluth  &  Iron 
Range  tracks  at  the  loot  of  the  high  stone 
wall  at  Eleventh  avenue  east.  It  was  im- 
possible to  determine  whether  he  acci- 
dentally fell  or  was  pushed  off  the  wall. 
Two  men  called  at  the  undertaking  rooms 
this  morning  and  said  tbat  he  had  rela- 
tives living  in  Bay  City,  Mich.  An  effort 
will  be  made  to  locate  them  but  the  body 
will  probably  be  burled  at  the  expense  of 
the  county. 

This  afternoon  the  remains  of  Frank  T. 
Anderson,  the  bartender,  who  took  thirty 
grains  of  pulverized  opium  Thursday 
evening,  were  taken  to  Oshkosh  for  burial. 
Mr.  Tibbetfs  succeeded  In  locating  his 
mother  in  that  city  ast  evening  and  re- 
ceived instructions  to  forward  the  body  at

SERMON  OFJdCMLISH. 

A  Promintnt  Priacher  Discoursts 
on  SoclaUsm. 

Inasmurh  as  Duluth.  at  present  is 
being  amust'd  every  night  by  a  Shaker 
Conr-ert  cumpany,  we  lielieve  it  will  not 
be  amiss  to  givi-  the  following:  extracts 
from  a  sermon  by  a  widely  known 
preacher,  in  which  he  speaks  of  some  of 
the-  characteristics  of  this  peculiar  peo- 
ple. 

Communit\  ^  »ods   and   peace   are 

ihi^f  things  in  a  Shaker  community. 
From  every  man  according  to  his  needs 
is  the  substance  of  the  doctrine  and 
l>ractice.  If  y.iu  are  broad  shouldered. 
lift;  if  you  are  faint,  lean:  whatever  wli 
Or  wisdom,  strength  of  brain  or  muscle 
you  have,  these  are  to  observe  th>' 
weak.  I  discover  that  the  doctrine  oi' 
Henry  George,  Edward  Bellamy  and 
Count  Tolsli»!  are  certainly  as  old  as 
the  Shakers.  They  have  been  working 
on  these  lines  for  more  than  a  century. 
The  largvs-t  society  is  place,!  at  Mount 
Lebanon.  N.  Y.  They  own  here  about 
10.i»0  acres  of  ihe  liest  land.  The  men 
attend  to  the  farm  and  orchards,  the 
women  spin,  can  fruit,  distil  essences, 
make  maple  sugar,  and  fans,  raise  bo- 
tanical herbs  for  medicine  and  teach 
the  children.  The  children  are  those 
who  coriie  with  their  parents  from  the 
Kiorld's  p€»op!>*.  The  Shakers  have  no 
politics,  no  lawyer-*,  no  ministers,  no 
policemen,  none  of  t>ur  best  people.  The 
Shakers  j,n.  all  niiiue  of  clay.  Tlio 
blood  of  all  Shakers  is  red.  and  all  their 
tears  are  salt.  They  d(t  not  doek  their 
horses  tail  or  vivi.sect  dogs.  Xi>  Shaker 
rtnds  himst-lf  connitlled  to  I'ain  his  liv- 
ing by  continuous  sleep  in  a  show  win- 
dow. Tht-ie  has  been  but  one  case  of 
typhoid  fe\er  at  Alount  Lebanon  for 
thirty-live  years,  and  they  are  much 
ashamed  of  th.it  one.  There  ii.  nothing 
(here  for  (iijihtheria  to  make  nesi  in. 
I^or  scveniv  years  the  name  Shaker  has 
not  Iteen  on  a  jail  or  aj>oor  house  record. 
They  treat  the  land  as  if  they  loved  it 
ami  the  lands  respond  with  a  wonderful 
crop  in  quantity  and  quality.  Cain 
killt  d  his  brother,  but  God  said  to  him. 
the  ground  thou  tillest  is  cursed.  A 
man  .-1  spirit  infects  the  earth  and  air. 
The  hate  of  Cain  poisoned  the  earth  he 
trod. 

The  good  will  of  Shakers,  of  their 
nelghlxtrs,  men  and  cattle  and  "He 
praisfth  best  who  loveth  best"  and  he 
ploughs  be.-t  who  loveth  best.  1  would 
like  to  see  anybody  raise  liowers  who 
does  not  praise  them  or  raise  children 
who  does  not  praise  them.  The  graiti 
raised  by  the  Shak.  rs  is  of  the  tinest 
and  so  is  the  fi-uit.  Whatever  they 
make—a  bro<mi  or  essence  of  roses  sells 
at  a  premium.  One  of  them  talks  as 
ff  allows: — 

"A  tree  has  its  wants  ^nd  wishes  and 
a  man  should  study  them  as  a  teacher 
watches.  If  you  watch  the  plant  and 
take  heed  to  what  it  iikes.  you  will 
b»  repaid  by  it.  I  do  not  know  if  a 
tw^  ever  comes  to  love  you.  1  think  it 
may  come  to  but  1  am  sure  it  feels 
when  >ou  care  for  it.  tend  It  as  a  child 
does,  as  .i  woman  does.  We  love  our 
garden. 

"That    -  my  mother  used  to 

talk.  She  w:is  a  the<o-opl»ist.  and  n"ver 
kn'Mv  It. 

■  Th!  se  peop:,  can  ans-'-r  the  great 
An:eri<  an  iiutstion.  "Does  it  pay  to  be 
friendly,  at  peace  with  all  creation, 
from  the  grass  up  to  CJod.'  *' 

Thesf  people  are  rich.  Contra.^^t  a 
Shaker  broom  with  a  penitentary  con- 
tract-Ial»or  l»room.  One  sweeps  and 
the  other  raLses  dust,  and  some  political 
dust.  All  work,  ecxept  the  children 
they  are  at  school  or  at  play.  What 
l>usinc>i>s  has  a  child  in  a  factory  or  in 
a  mine  or  at  any  lalnir?  Do  we  wish 
to  turn  America  over  to  stunted. 
twisted,  ignorant  men,  deformed  with 
work    when    children? 

This  is  the  class  of  people  to  which 
the-  Shaker  .Medicine  <-ompany  now  in 
t»ur  city  Inlong,  and  their  eonduct  while

A  SCENE  OF  BEAUTY 


Imerlcan  Pavilion  Fine  But 

Crowded    In    Between 

Austria  and  Turkey. 


Paris.  July  14.— (ripevial  to  The 
Herald)— In  my  previous  letter  I  did  not 
touch  on  the  Paris  exhihitiun  prr>per. 
merely  referring  to  a  few  of  the  his- 
torical points  of  interest  in  the  city. 
T'urlng  the  past  twelve  days  I  have 
made  careful  observation  of  the  expo- 
sition buildings  and  the  various  displays 
exhibited  therein.  This  exposition 
covers  a  much  larger  area  than  any  of 
the  previous  univer.sal  exhil>iti*ms  held 
in  Paris.  In  addition  to  the  space 
coveretl  by  the  exhiliition  of  1S89.  part 
of  Champs  Elysees  and  the  left  bank  of 
the  Seine  have  been  Included,  thus  giv- 
ing it  a  much  laiger  area.  Th^n  there 
are  the  annexes  of  the  Hois  de  Vin- 
cennes  some  distance  down  the  river. 
The  exposition  may  be  divided  into 
five  i>iincipal  parts,  viz:  The  Champs 
Klysees.  the  Esplanade  des  Invalides. 
the  Champ  de  Mars,  the  Trocaderu  and 
the  two  banks  of  the  Seine.  The  first 
two  parts  extend  as  far  as  Place  de  la 
Concorde,  therel>y  approaching  the  cen- 
ter of  Paris.  This  is  a  great  advantage 
and  greatly  facilitates  the  access  to  the 
exhibition.  The  Champs  Elysees  are 
exclusively  reserved  for  fine  arts  and 
horticulture,  the  Esplanade  des  In- 
valides is  reserved  fi»r  the  industries  of 
arts,  jewelry.guldsmiths"  work.tapestrv. 
chinaware.  crystals,  furniture,  etc.  On 
the  Champ  de  Mars  ar?  cspechi^y  ex- 
hibited the  products  of  agriculture  and 
of  industries  in  general,  as  well  as  the 
most  remarkable  results  effected  by  the 
recent  progrt^ss  of  science,  the  palace 
of  electricity  being  at  the  head  of  this 
spacious  avenue.  I  witnessed  one  ev- 
ening the  electrical  display  in  front  of 
tht  palai  I-  with  its  beautiful  terraces 
over  which  the  water  was  flowing  and 
through  whi<h  many  thousands  of 
varied  colored  lights  Hashed  and  I  must 
siy  that  it  was  the  grandest  sight  I 
have  ever  seen  in  that  line.  Th  n  there 
were  ttn  electrical  fountains  in  opera- 
tion in  front  of  the  palace  and  the  entire 
front  «jf  the  buildmg  was  studded  with 
innumerable  lights  of  all  colors  most 
harmoniously  blended,  giving  a  grand 
effect  to  the  whole  scene.  I  cannot 
des.  ribe  the  scene,  for  it  must  be  seen 
t>»   be   fully   realized. 

The  Tn.cadoreo  contains  exhibits  of 
French  and  foreign  colonies  and  the  two 
banks  of  the  Seine  afford  numerous 
attractions  of  every  description,  one 
bank  being  mostly  occupied  by  national 
ouildings  <><:  the  foreign  countrie.s.  The 
sper-ial  illumination  of  different  parts 
of  the  grounds  takes  place-  on  stated 
evenings.  Paris  kn"ws  the  art  of  j.)y- 
"i:s  existence,  sh-  h:is  learned  every- 
thing that  goes  towards  the  making  of 
t  njoyment  and  allures  the  more  solenm 
i.nd  p.  rhaps  .sadder  nr>lions.  This  land 
of  i.oli.-h  and  poliiene.«s.  rich  in  history. 
ri<li  in  treasure  and  art,  rich  in  the  art 
of  living  once  again  calls  on  the  nations 
of  th"  earth  to  forget  for  a  season  at 
least  their  strainings  and  rivalries  and 
to  join  in  the  i.rofitable  revel  of  an 
inlernjuional  exposition.  Even  a  glance 
at  a  birds  eye  view  and  the  ground 
plan  of  the  whol^'  will  prove  to  anvone 
that  the  exposition  is  a  city  in  itself. 
A  journey  through  the  grounds,  for  you 
cannot  call  it  less,  soon  convinces  you 
that  the  exposition  of  1900  is  as  .stu- 
pendous in  size  as  it  is  multitudiou.^  in 
mlerest  and  variety.  The  nations  of 
thf^  world  are  gathered  together  on  a 
i>lateau  of  ground  in  size  befitting  the 
all-woiid  character  of  the  scheme.  And 
that  every  visitor  may  have  a  gate  at 
his  very  doorstep,  they  have  made  the 
principal  entrance  about  on  Place  de  la 
Con(  -Tde.  tho  decorative  heart  of  the 
gay  city. 

Even  before  one  enters 
;;rounds  one  has  begun 
eights  of  the  exposition, 
mental  entrance  on  Place  de  la  Con- 
corde is  in  itself  a  revelation.  It  stands 
i's  a  veritable  scintillating,  airy  en- 
trance to  the  many  palaces  of  de'ight. 
On  eithf-r  side  of  it  towers  a  decorative 
olielisk.  each  of  which,  although  by  no 
nuans  a  cloud  of  smoke  during  the  day 
IS  certainly  a  pillar  of  fire  bv  night! 
b-mg  illuminated  by  nearly  ;!.^on  incan- 
ilHscent  lights  encased  in  coloied  glass. 
This  entrance  is  so  arranged  as  to  admit 
of  ::u.(MKi  people  per  hour,  and  there  are 
about  forty  other  entrances  scatter"! 
through  the  exposition.  Pa.ssing 
through  this  b^sutiful  gateway  the  vis- 
itor finds  himself  among  ti:e  shrul>s 
rtnd  flowers  of  the  chief  section  of  the 
horticultural  exhibition.  All  the  odds 
and  ends  of  ground  that  escaped  the  at- 
tention of  the  builders  have  been  util- 
ix<  d  by  the  horticulturist  and  at  every 
turn  the  visitor  comes  upon  natural 
d.iights.  A  walk  then  along  the 
;:vrnue  among  th"  shrubs  brinsjs  one  to 
one  of  the  abutments  of  Pont  Alexandre 
III.  then  the  length  of  the  bridge  itself. 
f"'ther  on  d  wide  •esplanade  between 
'b-  immaculate  buildings  that  are  de- 
vot-d  to  the  exhibition  of  the  diver-^i- 
bed  and  rarified  industries  of  all  lands. 
This  ei^pianade  leads  the  eve  on  until 
It  IS  smitten  by  the  view  of  the  Hotel 
•l*^!-  Invalides.  the  gilded  dome  of  Na- 
polcons  tomb  sprinj^lng  u|>  against 
the  sky  finishing  the  picture  with  the 
oiost  effective  <  ompleteness.  Th-- 
y.sitor  naturally  visits  the  art  I>uildings 
oelore  crossing  the  bridge  to  explore 
rnore  olstant  ileids.  The  exterior  of 
these  two  buildings  is  a  study  to  all 
l<'vers  of  architecture  and  sculpture. 
The  stately  pillars  that  ?tand  in  a  grand 
row  round  the  building,  the  noble  statu- 
ary .tn<l  colos.sal  figures  th.-.t  repre<«eni 
ih  evar.ous  arts,  examj.les  of  which  are 
lo  be  seen  inside,  the  j-orgeous  mosiacs 
ami  .he  surmounting  dome  of  glass 
V  l..n  the  sun  strik-s  upon  it.  stand 
i'"th  .n  almost  dazzling  whit.ness. 
lb.    large   building  is   intended   to  l>e  a 


the  beautiful 
to  view  the 
The   monu- 


Paiis. 


i"  iTiiMiient    altiaition    of 

Havinjj  finished  with  the  fine  ul- 
building,  the  visitor  .sets  his  face 
lowards  the  bridge.  This  Pont  Alf>xan- 
"le  HI  is  another  feature  of  the  exoosi- 
iion  and  is  a  permanent  acouisition  "t-. 
P.iris.  The  first  feature  of  the  brid-'e 
I  lat  strikes  you  is  that  formed  by  the 
lour  stately  columns,  one  on  either  side 
<'f  each  end  of  the  bridge.  There  are 
l-'ur  golden  figures  representative  of 
I'"  gasn.<,  that  winged  horse,  representa- 
ii\f  of  mu:,e:-.  ad'  nilng  the  lop  of  thci* 
columns,  and  at  the  bottom  of  the  four 
(o;umns  are  srulptored  figures  of  farne. 
ju.slice.  pcice  and  art.  Across  the  bridge! 
.tni  for  the  first  time  setting  f.-.^t  on  t^.e 
.'^liuth  bank  of  the  Seine,  the  visitor  finds 
himself  in  a  busy  world.  He  has  left 
the  arts  behind  him  and  steps  into  tho 
greater  world  of  commerce.  The  bridge 
i.5  a  beautiful  one  and  will  remain  as 
a  noble  monument  to  the  greatness  of 


the  world's  fair  of  1900.  The  buildings 
on  either  side  of  the  Esplanade  des  In- 
valides are  devoted  to  many  industries, 
but  the  decorations  and. fittings  of  resi- 
dence and  public  buildings  are  the 
striking  feature  of  the  display.  One 
building  is  devoted  to  France  and 
French  productions,  and  the  other  to  the 
foreign  nations.  After  a  visit  to  these 
buildings  you  next  pass  along  Rue  de 
Nations.  Here  are  the  pavilions  of  the 
foreign  nations.  Italy  is  the  first  one 
you  meet,  and  the  Italians  are  rei>re- 
sented  here  by  one  of  the  largest  build- 
ings. Italy's  pavilion  of  fanciful  archi- 
tecture speaks  clearly  of  the  suni^iine  of 
the  glorious  Mediterranean  peninsuLi. 
From  afap  this  building  stands  forth  a 
striking  feature  of  the  exposition,  and 
the  exhibits  in  it  are  a  magnificent  col- 
lection. Next  comes  Turkey,  and  the 
Turks  find  an  unaccustomed  neighbor  in 
the  United  States. 

I  have  now  reached  our  own  building, 
and  like  a  true  American  I  take  off  my 
hat  and  salute  Old  Glory,  for  when  yju 
have  been  wandering  around  among  for- 
eigners of  all  nations  and  see  the  na- 
tional flags  of  all  countries,  wEien  you 
i)ehold  your  own  you  seem  to  say, 
•'Hjme.  Sweet  Home."  We  have  done 
ourselves  proud  in  the  national  pavilion 
erected,  but  it  is  so  crowded  in  between 
Turkey  and  Austria  that  its  beauty  is 
somewhat  marred,  and  to  get  a  good 
view  of  it  you  have  to  cross  the  river  or 
go  on  one  of  the  steamers  plying  the 
river.  It  is  a  representation,  in  a  modl- 
fieil  form,  of  the  capitol  at  Washington. 
On  each  corner  of  the  building  a  .splen- 
did eagle  spreads  its  wings,  typifying  the 
breadth  and  freedom  of  the  American  re- 
public, and  ttie  dome,  surmounted  by 
a  llagpole.  carries  the  stars  and  stripes 
high  un  among  the  flags  of  the  world. 
There  are  three  bnlconies  around  the  in- 
terior of  the  building,  which  lead  to  re- 
ception rooms  and  reading  and  writing 
room.s,  which  are  very  finely  furnished, 
the  states  of  New  York,  Massachusetts 
and  California  esi>ecially  furnisCiiiig 
three  of  the  rooms.  Then  there  is  a 
postofflce  in  the  building  for  the  con- 
venience of  Americans.  In  front  of  the 
building  stands  a  fine  figure  of  George 
Washington  on  horseback,  with  an  up- 
lifted sword.  One  after  another  comes 
the  foreign  jiavilions  for  .some  distance 
down  the  river.  We  then  reach  the 
mercantile  marine  building,  and  Ciere  the 
I'nited  States  has  a  fine  exhibit. 

After  viewing  the  many  disjilays  of 
the  various  nations,  and  leaving  the 
building  at  the  opposite  end.  you  are  in 
the  pre.sence  of  the  famous  Eiffel  tower. 
This  tower  dominates  the  whole  city  of 
Paris,  and  i.s  one  of  th>se  rare  sights 
that  do  not  lise  by  constant  inspection. 
The  tower  has  ti.iree  platforms.  The 
first,  which  is  as  higlii  as  the  towers  of 
Notre  Dame,  is  of  vast  extent  and  com- 
fortably arranged  for  many  hundreds  of 
visitors  at  a  time.  It  contains  several 
cafes  and  restaurants.  The  second  land- 
ing is  376  feet  from  the  ground,  and  the 
third  is  86.3  feet  high.  The  total  heigSht 
of  the  tower  is  ftS,")  feet.  Viewed  from 
the  top,  the  lity  of  Paris  appears  but 
little  more  than  a  ma!>.  The  view  ex- 
tends fifty  miles,  and  the  Seine  looks 
like  a  mere  silver  ribbon.  People  in  the 
exposition  grounds,  viewed  from  the 
tower,  look  like  a  lot  of  ants  crawling 
around.  There  are  beautiful  gardens 
beneath  the  tower,  and  tf.iairs  and  seats 
where  the  weary  traveler  may  rest  him- 
self and  enjoy  the  many  sights  to  be 
seen  while  there.  I  have  now  reached 
the  Champs  de  Mars.  At  the  head  of  tiii.-s 
stands  ttie  p^tlace  of  electricity,  which 
may  in  truth  be  called  the  queen  of  the 
exhibition  Here  I  found  the  most  cur- 
ious applications  of  that  new  and  glor- 
ious conquest  of  mankind,  but  it  if 
chiefly  in  the  evening  that  this  nalace 
is  Interesting,  r)articula>ly  on  the  occa- 
sion of  imiKirtant  fetes,  when  it  is  illum- 
inated by  thousairds  of  incandescent 
lights,  when  the  water  palace,  its  neiK'i- 
ber,  is  a  veritable  palace  of  fire.  The 
Trocadero,  which  is  directly  at  the  oppo- 
site end  to  the  palace  of  electricity.  Is 
entirely  devoted  to  the  coi<mial  exhibi- 
tien.  P'rench  as  well  as  foreign.  The 
palace  itself,  fr-oin  which  a  very  fine  view 
is  obtained  on  Champ  de  Mars,  esne- 
cially  fi-om  ihe  toji  of  tCie  towers,  of 
which  there  are  two.  one  on  each  side  of 
the  building,  contains  many  handsomr 
cullections. 

The  old  familiar  Champ  de  Mars  re- 
sounds with  laughter,  bands  play,  th-n-e 
are  hundr'cds  of  cozy  little  tables,  com- 
fortable chairs,  cooling  drinks  and  other 
r-efreshments.  and  at  night  a  million 
lights  l)urn  their  tiny  flr. mes  in  all  the 
Colors  of  the  opal,  and  more.  Here,  per- 
haps, more  tha.i  In  any  other  part  of  the 
txposition.  those  who  are  weary  of 
sightseeing  and  tramping  through  build- 
ings can  lounge  and  rest  themselves 
while  listening  to  men  y  lauarhter  and 
.«weet  music.  The  French  have  ever 
iieen  clever  at  bitting  upi.n  something 
unique,  and  of  making  that  a  feature  of 
an  exposition.  The  moving  platform  i.-; 
the  unique  feature  of  this  mai  velous 
show.  This  iilatform  is  perprnuaily  "ii 
the  move  round  the  eximsition.  and  all  a 
person  who  wishes  to  go  to  the  various 
sections  reached  by  the  moving  plat."  rin 
has  to  do  is  t'.-  step  alwai-d  and  wait  un- 
til the  platform  arrives  at  his  destina- 
tion, when  he  as  freely  can  step  off 
again.  There  are  two  platforms,  side  by 
.-^ide.  one  moving  slow  and  one  fast.  1;" 
the  fli-st  one  's  not  fast  enough  for  you 
you  can  step  on  the  second  otit,  which 
runs  faster.  If  both  do  not  go  fast 
enough  for  you.  the  privilege  is  gi-anled 
to  you  of  stepping  off  and  runninji. 
Nothing  extra  cliarged  for  running. 
There  Is  al.so  an  electric  railway  within 
the  grounds  to  give  you  every  oppor- 
tunity of  viewing  the  exjiosition.  If 
these  ct-nveniences  do  not  give  you  the 
desired  view  of  the  grounds,  thevo  are 
l)alloon  as.ensions  in  different  parts  of 
the  city  which  >(>u  can  take.  The  first 
two  .satisfied  my  curiosity.  The  illumi- 
nation of  the  Eiffel  tower  in  the  evening 
is  a  grand  sight. 

The  Paris  exposition  of  1!»<U)  is  a  won- 
derful show,  and  it  would  require 
months  to  thon.-ugbly  inspect  all  the 
buildings  and  exhit>it,;.  The  trip  vv<  and 
rl.)wn  the  Seine  is  very  enjoyable,  giving 
you  a  fine  view  of  many  buildings  of  the 
exposition  and  pulilic  Iniitdings  of  Pari.-. 
I  have  sp^nt  two  weeks  here  very  en- 
joyably.  and  will  long  remember  my 
vifit  to  the  French  capital,  flreat  iirep- 
n rations  are  being  m.ide  for  th»  nntinn;ii 
holiday  tomorrow.  .July  14.  and  the  city 
is  handsomely  decorated  with  the  tri 
color  of  Fraiii'e.  All  the  publi-  .squares 
and  boulevards  will  be  a  blaze  if  gl  >ry 
at  night,  as  they  have  innumerable 
lights  of  the  colors  of  France  stretched 
up  and  down  and  across  all  these  tho- 
roughfares, and  the  Place  de  la  Concorde 
will  be  the  main  object  of  admiration. 
It  will  be  a  gala  day  from  all  appearan- 
ces at  this  writing,  and  it  sound.'  like 
the  glorious  Fourth  of  July  out  doors  on 
ai  count  of  th<-  report  of  exjilosives  of  all 
kinds.  Tomorrow  all  Anieiicans  will 
Wear  the  French  folors  and  join  with 
their  sister  repul)lic  in  telel>rating  her 
day  as  she  diii  with  us  on  the  Fourth  of 
Jiiiv.     Vive  la  France.

Capt.  Mann,  who  will  give  Mayor 
Hugo  and  party  an  excursion  ride  up 
the  St.  Louis  river  next  Wednesday  af- 
ternoon, says  that  all  arrangements  for 
the  trip  are  about  completed,  and  that 
there  will  be  a  gootl-sized  party  to  take 
the  ride  on  the  steamer  Mary  Mann.  As 
has  been  customary,  the  mayor  will  in- 
vite those  whom  tie  wishes,  and  it  is 
understood  that  the  passenger  list  will 
include  all  the  Duluth  city  officials  and 
thirty-six  of  the  city  officers  from  West 
Superior-.  The  boat  will  start  from  the 
foot  of  Garfield  avenue  at  2  o'clock  in 
the  afternoon,  and  the  party  will  go  up 
the  river,  returning  later  to  Zenith 
park.  In  the  preceding  three  years  tLnat 
Capt.  Mann  has  given  the  mayor  of 
Duluth  an  excursion  the  boat  has  started 
from  the  West  Duluth  dock,  but  the 
change  was  made  this  year  in  order  to 
make  it  more  convenient  for  the  officials 
frvm  both  cities. 


DEGREE  OF  HONOR  CONVENTION. 
West  Duluth  lodge  No.  So,  Degree  of 
Honor,  is  planning  on  a  big  time  here 
Aug.  17,  I'he  date  of  the  district  conven- 
tion of  the  order.  There  will  be  a  large 
attendance  of  delegates,  it  is  expected, 
from  the  West  Duluth  and  the  Duluth 
lodges  and  representatives  from  every 
town  on  the  range  that  is  included  in 
this  district.  The  cimvention,  which  will 
be  held  in  Gilley's  hall,  is  for  the  purpo.se 
of  fraternizing  and  to  hold  a  scBiool  of 
instruction.  It  is  the  custom  of  the  local 
lodge  wherever  the  district  convention 
is  held  to  have  a  class  for  initiation. 
T.he  West  Duluth  lodge  expects  to  have  a 
large  class  for  the  o(  casion.  Interestin.g 
papers  for  the  good  of  the  order  will 
be  read  by  visiting  members  from  each 
lodge  represented. 

WEST  DI'IvUTH  BRIEFS. 

A  party  comprised  of  Charles  Silger 
and  two  sons,  Charles  litis  and  Peter 
Hanrmerstein  expect  to  leave  ti.ois  after- 
noon for  a  several  days'  fishing  trip  up 
the  St.  Louis  river. 

F.  A.  Holmes,  of  Cedar  Falls,  Iow.i. 
who  r-epresents  a  Marshalltown  vehicle 
company,  called  on  friends  here  and  at 
Proctorknott   today. 

Dougal  McKinnin,  a  'longshor-e- 
nran  employed  by  Merrill  &  Ring, 
had  his  arm  badly  cr-ushed  by  a  heavy 
plank  at  the  mill  Thur-isday  afternoon. 

There  is  a  meeting  of  the  Redmen 
from  tribes  Nos.  17  and  25  at  the  Gi-eat

Eastern  hall  last  night  under  the  aus- 
pices of  W.  C.  O.  F.,  NO.  322,  entitled 
"The  Coronation  of  tCie  Rose,"  was  very 
successful  both  as  an  entertaining  fea- 
ture and  financially,  and  was  much  en- 
joyed by  those  that  wer-  present. 

From  the  present  prospects  there  will 
be  a  large  potato  crop  in  the  gardens  of 
West  Duluth.  The  dry  period  during 
the  earlier  nan  of  the  sea.son  set  the 
growth  back  considerably,  but  the  late 
ri'ins  have  been  very  beneficial  and  a 
big  crop  is  anticipated  by  tlh  ise  owning 
gardens. 

West  Duluth  is  pretty  well  stocked 
along  the  line  of  amusements  just  no.v. 
A  tent  show  and  a  merr-y-SO-roun«l 
draw  out  many  of  the  people  during 
the  evening.  The  high  wind  of  yesterday 
afternoorr  blew  down  the  show  tents. 

.August  Lifgren  and  family  returned 
this  morning  from  .\da.  Minn.,  where 
they  have  loeii  visiting  for  the  past 
month.

FRUIT  GOES  UP. 


California  Variety  Takts  a  Shoot  to 
a  Higher  Notch. 

A  general  a.lvan  -■  ha.-  been  made  in 
California  fruit,  the  figures  bavin?  licen 
boosted  up  an  average  of  10  cents  per 
package  all  around.  No  particular  rea- 
son is  assigne.l  for  this  increase  in  price. 
but  it  is  denied  that  it  is  the  work  of  a 
trust. 

A  featui-e  of  the  market  during  the 
Week  IS  the  steadiness  that  has  pre- 
vailed in  all  lines.  Fruits  have  held  up 
the  best,  and  the  a<lvance  in  <:alifornia 
.=  oick  has  imparted  a  tone  of  firmness 
iluoughout. 

The  market  is  now  stoc  ked  with 
watermelons  for  the  lialance  of  the  sea- 
son. They  went  aieund  25('ii.'30  cents  to- 
dav. 

Eggs  showed  an  easier  tendency,  lOVj 
cf  nts  beiirg  struck  as  the  bottom  figure, 
though  the  ruling  price  was  11  cents. 

Poulti-v  is  moving  well,  and  last  night 
"the  street"  was  ab'iut  as  clean  as  a 
l.lucked  fowl.  There  were  fairly  liberal 
iiceipts  today,  and  prices  held  at  Frl- 
dav's  figures. 

Potatoes  held  at  40  cents,  strong  for 
choice  stock,  and  it  was  reported  that 
there  were  but  few  seconds  on  the  mar- 
ket. 

Butter  and  cheese  was  steady.

ALASKA'S  NOTED  LMKi. 
Clarence  J.  Berry's  mastiff  Julian,  the 
ino-t  widely  known  dog  in  the  far-awuy 
?old  fields  of  Alaska,  is  dead,  says  the 
San  Francisco  Call.  Exposure  to  the 
rigors  of  the  northern  climate  put  an  end 
to  the  career  of  a  dog  which  had  tra- 
\eled  hundreds  of  miles  over  the  path- 
less ice.  and  had  hauled  thousands  of 
pounds  of  freight.  Mr.  Berry  first  put 
him  to  work  on  a  sled  in  1S95.  v/hen  the 
dog  hauled  provisions  for  the  season 
over  tha  Chilkoot  Pass.  In  the  follow- 
ing year  the  dog  was  the  mainstay    of 


the  team  which  w.is  used  by  Mrs.  Berry 
when  she  went  to  join  her  husband.  On 
this  perilous  trip  all  the  dogs  except 
Julian  gave  out.  and  he  had  t<'  haul  th<! 
I<  ad,  which  weighed  over  1000  j.ounds,  by 
himself  acro-'^s  the  frozen  surface  of 
Lake  Bennett.  When  the  party  reached 
Dawson  the  dog  hauled  most  of  the  lum- 
ber and  material  jsed  by  Mr.  Berry  in 
his  mines  and  houses.  So  famous  did 
Julian  become  t  lat  his  owner  wis 
.  ffered  fabulous  sums  for  him.  but  de- 
clined to  consider  any  proposition  which 
nipant  parting  with  his  faithful  servant. 
In  ISilS  the  dog  suffered  from  lehuni-i- 
tism.  brought  on  b\-  exposure.  This  ren- 
dert<l  him  useless  as  a  draught  aninTil. 
Mr.  B'Miy  sent  hiri  to  t^resno  for  treat- 
ment, and  as  he  4lid  not  imjirove  there, 
he  was  sent  to  Santa  Cruz,  where  h^re- 
niained  several  months.  Disease  haa  so 
strong  a  hold  on  him  that  he  could  not 
shake  it  rff.  He  finally  succumbed  to  :i 
complication  of  canine  ailments. 

SACRED  FIRES. 
Sacred  fires  still  exist  in  some  parts 
of  India  and  Persia.  One  of  the  most 
ancient  of  the  Irdian  sacred  fires  is 
that  of  Oodwada,  near  Bulsar,  which 
was  consecrated  tvelve  centuries  ago  in 
commemoration  of  the  voyage  made  by 
the  Parsee  when  they  emigrated  from 
Persia  to  India.  The  Are  is  fed  five 
times  every  twenty-five  hours  wlt'a 
sandalwood  and  o^her  fragrant  mater- 
ials, combined  with  very  dry  fuel.  This 
sacred  fire  is  visited  by  Parsees  in  large 
numbers  during  the  months  allotted  to 
the  presiding  genius  of  fire.  In  the  pen- 
insula of  Abeheror,  formerly  belonffing 
t3  Persia,  but  nov  a  part  of  Rusbla, 
there  is  a  sacred  fire  which  is  known  to 
have  been  burnini:  for  more  thin  2000 


years.  It  rises  from  an  irregular  orifice 
of  about  twelve  feet  in  depth  and  120 
feet  square.  The  flames,  wCiich  are  con- 
stant, reach  a  height  of  from  six  to 
eight  feet,  waving  backward  and  for- 
ward with  thf  wind  like  a  field  of  golden 
grain,  and  unaccompanied  by  either 
smoke  or  disagreeable  smell. 

BROWX  PAPER  BEST. 
To  fold  gowns  of  delicate  silk,  or  those 
trimmed  with  delicate  ribbons,  in  cas- 
irgs  of  white  tis.<5ue  paper,  seems  the 
dainty  and  suitable  thing.  Scientists, 
iiowever,  advise  the  use  of  brown  paper, 
as  in  the  manufacture  of  white  paper 
chloiitle  of  lime  is  u.sed,  and  is  likely  to 
injure  th'-  silk.

It  is  of  interest  ti  the  neoDle  of  Du- 
luth to  ntite  that  the  travel  by  way  cf 
the  head  of  the  lakes  to  the  Yellowstone 
park  is  increasing  steadily  every  year. 
It  is  estimated  that  the  travel  through 
here  thus  far  tSiis  season  to  America's 
famous  iKirk  is  over  600  people,  and  it 
has  by  no  means  ceased  yet,  transporta- 
ti:)n  companies  figuring  that  visitors  will 
continue  to  go  through  here  nearly  two 
months  to  come.  The  tourists,  as  a  rule, 
that  go  through  Duluth  to  the  park  are 
people  from  the  East,  and  the  greater 
part  of  iCiem  take  the  big  lake  steam- 
ships at  Buffalo,  Cleveland,  Toledo,  De- 
troit and  other  lower  lake  ports  for  the 
purpose  of  enjoying  one  of  the  fine.si  j  ^" 
trips  by  water  to  be  found  anywhere  in 
this  country. 

The  people  of  the  Ea.st  realize  the  dif- 
ference between  a  1  ms,  tiresome  ride 
by  rail  as  compared  with  the  delights  i^t 
it  lake  trip,  and  as  a  result  they  are 
coming  in  larger  numbers  by  steamship 
every  year. 

Several  of  the  tourists  that  have  re- 
turned from  the  park  by  the  way  of  th- 
head  of  the  lake  have  expressed  their  re- 
gret that  they  did  not  come  up  by 
water. 

One  of  the  tourists  that  was  In  the 
city  yesterday  on  his  return  from  Yel- 
lowstone park  says  that  i'-ie  park  is  at 
its  best  now,  and  that  tourists  are  tlock- 
ins  there  in  large  numbers.  He  ex- 
-  ressed  surprise  at  the  number  he  met 
that  came  by  the  way  of  Duluth,  and 
.-aid  that  all  were  so  enthusiastic  over 
the  delightful  trip  this  way  that  he  was 
induced  to  come  to  Dulutf-i  and  take  a 
bi>at  rather  than  take  an  all-rail  route 
back  to  the  East. 


A  GENTLE  RAP. 


Louis  Azinsky  Is  Hammored 

on  the  Head  By  Richard 

Black. 

Today's  humid  heal  was  not  such  a 
tragic  calamity  as  certain  sizzlin.:?  and 
melancholy  doings  on  First  avenue  west 
this  morning.  Richard  Black.  .vho.se 
complexion  i.s  a  shade  darker  than  his 
name,  hit  Louis  Azinsky  over  ihe  head 
with  a  board.  and  came  very  near 
throwing  him  out  at  mental  first  base. 
Azinskv  is  a  foreigner  who  assassinates 
English  in  broken  German.  This  combi- 
nation was  too  much  for  the  colored 
man,  and  while  the  two  have  been 
neighbours  for  some  time  they  have 
never  been  friends.  At  10  o'clock  this 
morning  both  went  out  on  the  sireet 
locfking  for  the  other,  while  under  the 
erroneous  impres.^^ion  that  the  other  w.^s 
out  of  the  city.  They  met  in  front  of 
the  house  where  Black  was  trying  to 
slop  a  dog  fight. 

In  his  own  frivolous  and  reverberat- 
ing little  way.  the  gentleman  uith  the 
Limliurger  dialect  coyly  llitted  a  chair 
at  the  brunette  gentleman,  remavkin„'  at 
the  same  time: 

"Dot  dogs  is  mine  yet  already,  atnJ 
should   it   be  no  dot   you   lot   him  alone 

Some  once " 

lilack  turniKl,  and  when  he  saw  where 
the  conversation  was  leaking  from,  he 
sought  to  stop  it  by  caving  Az-insky's 
head  in  with  a  board.  At  the  first  bl  »\v 
the  latter  suddenly  remembered  some- 
thing that  he  had  dmpped  on  the  side- 
walk and  got  down  to  look  for  It.  The 
colored  gentleman  kept  getting  stronge- 
all  the  time,  and  tendered  Azinsky  a  few 
forceful  reminders  in  the  shape  cf  well 
placed,  swift  klck.s.  An  officer  dose  by. 
ha\ing  a  dull  sort  of  an  Impression  that 
s.methlng  was  going  on,  placed  Black 
nder  arrest. 

Then  the  neighbourhood  held  a  consul- 
tation over  Azinsky.  who  seemed  to  be 
out  of  his  h^^ad.  His  pallid  lips  moved 
slightly  as  he  asked  who  It  was  that  h:'..! 
turned  off  all  the  sunshine.  B'lt  he 
didn't  come  to  till  a  woman  whispered 
that  they  were  going  to  send  for  a  brair. 
specialist  to  examine  his  upr)erworks  to 
ascertain  whether  it  woidd  be  necessary 
to  have  his  <?state  lurtied  over  to  lovin?r 
relatives.  With  that  he  woke  up,  and 
jumping  to  his  feet,  exclaimed: 

•'Berllceman,  dere  was  a  man  who  on 
det  head  hit  me.  and  it  should  Vie  that 
vou  him  vas  arrest,  aln'd  it?" 

The  officer  thought  so.  and  took 
A'/inskv  and  lilack  both  to  the  city  hall, 
where  a  warrant  was  sworn  out  ag-^inst 
the  colored  man  charging  hiin  with  as- 
sault In  the  second  degree.  He  was  held 
in  $2riO  bail  for  an  examinat 
■2.  The  whole  affair  was 
tabular.

THE  HARVEST  RATE.

.A.  ii.uvest  lale  to  tne  Daki.ta  wheat 
fields  nas  finailv  been  made,  the  North- 
ern Pacific  and  Great  Northern  rjads 
announcing  a  fiat  rate  of  $5  to  certain 
points.  This  will  apply  only  to  parties 
of  ten  and  more,  however.  This  will 
give  an  oiiportunity  now  to  the  men 
that  wish  to  go  t>  tihe  harvest  fields, 
ami  It  is  expet  ted  that  a  large  numlur 
will  be  sent  out  by  the  em:doyment 
ageniies  during  the  next  few  weeks.  Ad- 
vices from  the  wheat  country  indicate  a 
shortage  of  men,  as  fewer  went  out  there 
this  summer  to  be  ready  for  the  har- 
vest, on  account  of  the  earlier  reiM)rts 
of  a  D»or  crop.  While  the  crop  will  not 
be  as  heavy  as  in  some  former  years, 
it  will  be  better  than  was  expected  a 
few  weeks  ago,  and  the  demand  for  men 
has  consequently  increased.  There  is 
still  a  shortage  of  men  for  railroad  con- 
tract work.

iiado— Rspubiicans  Are  Hustling;. 

Judge  Ensign  took  charge  of  the  spec- 
ial term  of  district  court  last  night,  and 
bU  s^ccond  citizensliip  ijapers  were 
issued.  This  is  the  lai'gest  number 
^•ver  issuctl  at  a  single  session  In  Du- 
luth. ihouiih  thi  re  have  been  laiger  lists 
at   some  of  tlie  range  sessions. 

There  will  be  one  more  evening  .session 
in  Duluth,  that  of  m  xt  Kriday  evening, 
Aug.  o.  In  addition  theie  will  be  ;i 
sossion  at  We'St  Duluth  next  Saturda.v 
evening,  at  a  place  to  In  annouiued 
later.  This,  together  with  the  fact  that 
there  are  usually  jud-es  at  the  court - 
hous.e  during  the  daytime  for  those  who 
can  come  th£n.  gives  ample  opportunity 
lor  those  who  desire  to  vote  at  this 
fall's  elections  to  .secure  their  second 
citizenship  papers,  without  which  they 
cannot  vote. 

There    will    W  another   range   session 
iie.xt    week.       Monday   Judge  Cant    will 
bold  a  special   term  at   Mesaba   for  the 
purpose   of    issuing   second    papers,    and 
Til' sday  he  will  hold  one  .it  MiKinley. 
where    it    is    exi»ecied    there    will    be    a 
large  number  of  applicants.      Thursday 
there    will    be    one    at    Flood  wood    nver 
which    Judge    Cant    will    preside,    and 
this  will  give  the  voters  of  that  section 
an  opportunity  to  take  out  their  papers. 
The  Republicans  are  still  doing   most 
■  f  the  hustliii.g  in  this  matter,  and  mo.st 
if   those    who    have   been    stirred    Ui>    to 
u'et  their  papers  have  been  stirred  up  liy 
Kepubllcan     workers.         Most       of      the 
einocialic   voters  who  ha^'e  taken  out 
heir    seion»l    papers    have    done    so    of 
their   own      accord.        The      Republican 
wiirkers      are      spending        considerable 
inoni-y   in  this  enterprise. 


LIVELY  STORM. 

Lightning  Plays  a  Number  of 

Pranks-»Heat  Reaches 

Sultry  Sfage. 

.\  scries  of  oppressive  boat  waves 
caused  by  the  passing  of  an  era  of  low 
barometric  pressure,  seared  today  Into 
the  memory  of  sweltering  Duluthiaus  ;md 
hundreds  of  people  that  came  from  the 
blistering,  sun-baked  prairies  of  the  Da- 
kotas  to  enjoy  Duluths  much  vaunted 
cletir.  cool  and  bracing  summer  weather. 
It  has  been  an  off  day.  however,  and  the 
temperature  will  probably  fall  back  te 
the  delightful   normal    tomorrow. 

The  low  area  started  over  the  city  at  ,i 
o.  lock  last  night  iiud  brought  with  it 
tbuiuUr.  lightning  and  rain.  From  .'i  lo  H 
oeloek  last  evening  .14  of  an  inch  c.f 
water  fell  and  for  live  minutes  during  that 
lieriod  the  wind  attained  a  velocity  of 
thirtv-six  miles  an  hour  from  the  .soutii- 
west!  This  storm  did  uuite  a  little  dam- 
age about  town,  burning  out  sixty-eight 
of  the  Zenith  company's  and  sixty  of  the 
old  companv's  telephones,  and  wreckin« 
some  transformers  belonging  to  the  Com- 
mercial IJght  and  Power  company.  The 
fuse  in  maiiv  street  cars  went  sputtering 
and  delaved  "traffic  for  "a  short  time,  but 
the  mo!«t  extraordinary  and  freakisu 
thing  the  storm  did  was  at  the  Stone-Oi 
dean-Wells  company's  bulliling  on  Souvii 
Fifth  avenue  west.  The  lightning  eni.re.1 
the  big  wholesale  house  from  the  toj.  ot 
the  elevator  shaft  and  went  sizzling  down 
from  tloor  to  fionr  till  it  reached  the  bot- 
tom Then  it  started  off  on  a  little  rum- 
maging tour  of  the  basement,  splttliis: 
sparks  in  all  directions  till  it  fouad  a 
water  pipe.  The  electricity  melted  ••hole 
in  the  pipe  aliout  an  inch  in  diameter,^  an.i 
i.artiallv    flooded    the    ba.sement. 

The  managers  of  the  two  telephone  com- 
panies consider  themselves  remarkably 
luckv  in  escaping  with  so  few  phoni  s 
burned  out.  as  the  storm  was  onf  oi  the 
most  .-'even  this  season.  The  Zenith  com- 
p.any    lost    but    sixty-eight    fuses 


The  board  of  equalization  had  a  va- 
riety of  matters  for  its  consideration 
this  morning.  It  heard  a  number  of 
minor  kicks,  talked  over  the  questian  of 
how  the  assessments  on  the  mines  are 
going  to  be  handled,  reduced  one  per- 
sonal property  assessment,  and  as  mem- 
bers of  the  board  of  county  commission- 
ers spenc  a  little  time  viewing  a  demon- 
stration of  the  good  qualities  of  some 
paint  that  the  demonstrator  thinks  will 
i)e  all  right  to  u.se  on  the  bridges  on  the 
:V!iiler  trunk  road.  The  selection  of  the 
paint  was  left  to  Commissioner  Will- 
lams. 

H.  M.  Peyton  appeared  before  tSie 
board  to  talk  about  the  assessment  on 
a  lot  out  on  the  hillside  up  In  Third  divi- 
sion. He  explained  that  he  took  a  loan 
on  it  for  a  relative  wlfnout  vlewins  it, 
and  when  he  did  look  at  it  he  took  it 
out  of  the  relaive's  hands  and  is  carry- 
ing it  Ciimself.  He  said  that  the  lot  is  no 
lot  at  all,  but  a  chasm  probably  thirty 
or  forty  feet  below  the  level  of  the  sur- 
i-oundlng  lots.  Into  it  has  been  thrown  a 
quantity  of  great  rocks  from  the  sur- 
rounding lots,  but  they  have  not  begun 
to  fill  it  up  .so  as  to  make  It  available 
for  a  choice  building  site.  As  the  lot 
was  assessed  at  che  same  rate  as  th'; 
adjoining  lots,  Mr.  Peyton  thought  there 
must  be  some  mistake  about  It,  and  ii<> 
believed  that  If  the  assessor  could  view 
the  property  he  would  be  willing  to  con- 
cede that  the  assesment  was  an  error. 
The  matter  was  taken  under  advisement. 
The  city  assessor  recommended  that 
the  petition  of  (J.  A.  Klein  for  a  reduc- 
tion in  the  assessment  on  his  jewel rv 
«tock  be  granted  to  the  extent  of  $100o,  ] 
making  it  S4000  instead  of  $5000.  Tne 
board  will  adopt  the  recommendation. 

11  will  take  quite  a  little  figuring  to 
get  at  a  just  assessment  of  the  mines. 
The  old  question  of  how  to  make  allow- 
ances for  the  ore  that  is  going  out  ab 
the  time  will  come  up,  and  some  of  the 
mini  s  expect  reductions  because  they 
h.ive  shipped  a  lot  of  ore  since  two 
years  ago.  The  Chandler  and  the  Min- 
nesota are  both  likely  to  rei\eive  reduc- 
tions below  the  as.sessfnents  of  :v.o 
vears  ago,  but  many  other  mines  are 
likely  t<)  be  raised.  Most  of  the  reduc- 
tions made  by  tiie  a.ssesseors  will  1-e 
restored  by  the  board,  and  In  soioi' 
cases  the  assessments  will  be  higher, 
than  they  were  before  the  assessors 
made  the  cut. 

The  Chandler  mine  is  figured  to  be 
good  for  only  a  few  years  more,  four  or 
five  at  the  outside,  so  it  will  get  a  sub- 
stantial reduction.  On  the  other  hand 
the  Pioneer  is  ciuisidei:ed  a  much  better 
property  than  it  was  two  years  ago. 
and  it  will  probably  be  increased.  The 
Spru<e  mine,  on  the  lownsite  of  Eveleth 
will  be  jumped  in  all  probability  from 
about  J20.000,  its  assessment  last  year, 
to  a  figure  that  will  crowd  $.'i00.000 
pretty  closely.

VERY  BRIGHT, 

Chairman  Roslnglof  Demo- 
cratic Committee  Optimistic 
as  to  Party's'  Prospects. 

L.  A.  Rosing,  chairman  of  tIhe  Demo- 
cratic state  central  committee  and  sec- 
retary to  Governor  Lind,  arrived  in  the 
city  this  morning:  and  has  been  spend- 
ing the  day  here  conferring  with  Depio- 
crats  of  the  city  over  the  situation.  He 
called  on  a  number  of  the  members  of 
the  nartv  and  discussed  affairs  political 
with  them.  He  was  with  T.  T.  Hudson 
ior  some  time,  and  the  matter  of  tlio 
appointment  of  the  members-at-large  of 
the  state  central  committee  is  under- 
•stooU  to  have  received  their  considera- 
tion. 

Mr.  Rosing  said  this  morning  in  refer- 
ence to  the  situation  In  the  state  that, 
while  the  campaign  had  not  opened  and 
the  lines  are  not  closely  drawn  enough 
to  give  ary  estimate  of  sirength  of  the 
political  forces,  the  outlook  for  the 
fusion  forces  Is  wonderfully  bright.  In 
every  part  of  the  state  strong  enthus- 
iasm and  energy  is  reported,  and  the 
members  of  the  pany  will  be  in  the  fieid 
very  actively.  The  party  will  be  greatly 
strenstbened  this  year  by  the  accession 
of  peoiJe  who  ca'inot  accept  the  Republi- 
can policy  of  imperialism  and  militar- 
iMTi.  This  Is  eF'>ecially  true  of  the  for- 
eign-born pcTtulatlon  of  the  state.  Th" 
condition  is  the  sanit  in  Minnesota  as 
In  Illinois,  Wisconsin  and  other  states 
where  there  is  a  large  population  of  for- 
eign-barn people. 

The  Democrats  who  did  not  agree  with 
the  party  on  the  money  question  are 
also  coming  back  almost  to  a  man,  Mr. 
Jlosing  says.  Of  course  mere  are  some 
who  will  not,  but  they  arc  the  very  few 
rather  than  the  many.  On  the  con- 
trary, there  is  n3  defection  among  the 
Republicans  who  came  over  to  the  Dem- 
ocratic party  four  years  ago  because  of 
the  party's  complete  reversal  of  its  stand 
on  the  money  question. 

Mr.  Rosing  is  very  optimistic  over  the 
prosi>ects  f  ^r  the  party  this  fall,  and  says 
that  the  Republlca:::'  are  making  a 
deperate  effort  to  inject  courage  into 
their  ranks.

THEY  COMPLAIN 

Man  Arrested   Fer   Timber 

Trespass  Makes  Charge 

of  Favorthism. 

A  few  days  ago  The  Herald  reported  the 
discharge  of  C.  Mans  P.  Christofferson  and 
George  Mac<oibrey.  who  have  been  held  for 
trial  in  the  county  .iail  in  this  county  since 
Mav  last  for  trespjiss  ui)on  governmenr 
timber.  They  were  released  on  their  own 
recognizance  and  the  document  which 
thev  signed  \^as  a  rather  peculiar  one.  in 
it  thiv  agreed  to  leave  at  (Uice  and  get 
their  "families  and  remove  them  and  all 
their  belongings  from  the  land;  also,  to 
appear  at  the  October  term  of  the  I'nited 
States  court  at  Duluth,  if  the  Cnited 
Stales  marshal  notifies  them  that  they  are 
wanted    then. 

If  the  story  told  by  Mr.  Macoubrey  is 
true,  the  arrest  of  hipiself  and  others  looks 
like  i)ersecution  on  the  jiart  of  somebody. 
There  were  five  arrests  made,  the  two  con- 
fined In  the  jail  here  and  .jus;  released,  .uid 
three  who  were  in  the  (^rookston  district. 
Macoubrey  says  that  he  had  settled  upon 
land  up  there  expecting  lo  get  it  when  the 
land  was  opened  for  .settlement.  They  built 
shanties  and  made  some  improvements.  He 
savs  that  a  si)ecial  agent  of  the  land  oflice 
came  through  and  told  him  that  he  might 
cut  a  small  amount  of  timber  which  he 
wished  to  remove  and  that  he  should  then 
crib  it.  but  not  to  sell  it  until  the  i)roper 
stamp  should  Ix-  given  it  by  the  govern- 
ment, M  hen  he  would  be  i)aid  for  cutting  it 
the  government  to  get  the  prollt.  He  did 
this  and  elaims  that  he  sold   none. 

After  a  time  along  came  another  special 
agent,  seized  the  timber  and  sold  It,  he  \ 
savs,  for  a  ridiculously  small  sum.  He 
then  caused  warrants  to  be  issued  for  the 
five  and  thev  were  arrested.  Christiffe:- 
son  is  .said  to  have  been  taken  from  his 
home  and  six  children,  leaving  them  alone 
without  a  cent.  They  were  Uicn  brousi  '- 
up  and  comndtted  for  trial. 

Mr.  Macoubrev  does  not  claim  that  the 
injustice  lies  in  nil  that  he  reeltes  bui  in 
the  fact  that  there  were  thirty  or  forty 
others  doing  the  same  thing  who  were 
not  molested.  The  suspicious  part,  accord- 
ing to  his  storv.  Is  that  the  others  were 
men  who  had  means.  The  five  arrested 
were  the  poorest  in  the  lot.  He  say.,  they 
liad  sold  none  of  their  timber  and  that  It 
they  were  trespassers  all  the  special  agent 
needed  to  do  was  to  tell  them  so  ana 
order  them  off  and  they  would  have  gou. 
and  thus  been  spared  confinement  in  jail 
for  two  months.

The  Young  l'eo|)l,'s  Christian  union 
will  hold  a  missionary  rally  at  the  p-irst

ferent .societies,  of  all  denominations, 
will  take  nart,  and  there  will  be  ad-

The  Kentucky  I>ress  a.ssoclatlon,  rep- 
resented by  abou:  100  of  the  editors  of 
the  Blue  Grass  state,  with  their  ladles, 
came  over  from  ^Vest  Superior  shortly 
before  noon  today  and  after  stopping  at 
the  Spalding  for  luncheon,  weni  out  on 
the  lake  for  an  excursion.  Arrange- 
ments had  been  made  by  the  local  pre.'s 
during  the  fomooii  to  provide  a  boat  for 
the  excursion,  but  as  the  \islting  I'cws- 
pai)er  me  had  their  arrangenu;nts  com- 
pleted before      re.iching      the      city,  no 

change  was  made. 

Robert  E.  Morningstar,  of  the  Bowling 
(i/een  Courier,  .soi  retary  of  the  assooia- 
ti4)n.  was  in  charge  of  the  iiarty,  and 
directed  the  mo\ements  while  en  the 
visit  here.  Mr.  Morningstar  said  that 
the.v  Intended  coming  straight  thv  tugh 
to  Duluth  to  mace  their  head'iuarteir. 
but  <m  the  crowded  conditions  of  tlie 
lio;els.  due  to  the  North  Land  iiiiivuls, 
ii  was  impo.ssilile  to  get  accommodations 
for  the  whole  paity,  so  they  slopped  at 
West  Superior. 

S|;eaklng  for  th«  visitors,  Mr.  Morning- 
star had  nothing  )Ut  good  w'lU'ds  for  the 
cordial  reception  that  has  been  extend- 
ed the  members  of  the  association  while 
on  their  visit  at  the  head  of  the  lakes. 
He  wished  they  had  a  longer  time  to 
stay,  as  they  felt  that  they  had  not  the 
time  to  see  all  the  Interesting  sights.  The 
visitors  enjoyed  ihe  climate  here,  to  th' 
fullest  extent,  remarking  'ii  the  great 
«lifference  between  the  tem|>erature  here 
and  at  the  warm  Southern  home. 

After  the  ride  on  the  lake  thl*  after- 
noon the  visitor.',  have  planned  011  re- 
turning to  the  cliy  and  stay  for  dinner, 
though  some  will  go  over  to  Sui>erittr. 
where  their  lars  were  left.  The  p.iity 
will  leave  tonlgh  for  Lake  Mlnnetonka 
to  spend  Sunday  and  contlnu-  on  then 
way  to  Chicago  noxt  Monday. 

Secretary  Morningstar  said  that  th" 
Kentucky  Press  £>ssoclati>n  Is  the  oldest 
press  association  In  tiio  country.  It  is 
represented  by  li'.o  p.apers  and  some  iCi 
editors.  The  custom  of  to  kins  a  trip 
after  the  annual  convention  was  inaugu- 
rated fifteen  years  ago,  and  has  been 
kept  up  successfully  ever  since.  With 
but  few  exceptions  the  editors  In  the  as- 
sociation represent  Democratic  organs. 

The  editors  were  on  a  pleasure  trip 
and  seemed  much  averse  to  talking  poli- 
tics. Some  that  did  talk  predicted  that 
Kentucky  will  go  Democratic  both  on 
the  state  and  national  issues  this  fall. 
Thev  say  that  the  be.-5i  cla!^s  of  the  oe;'- 
ple  of  Kentucky  are  for  tIhe  Goebel  law, 
and  some  took  txceptlons  to  an  inter- 
view published  yesterday  afternoon  in 
Superior  to  the  contrary.  They  say  that 
every  vote  that  Goebel  got  last  fall  will 
be  cast  for  Beckham  this  fall,  and  that 
the  latter's  election  will  be  assured  by 
an  »  verwhelming  tnajority.  While  some 
•f  the  editors  t  lought  the  Itepubli'-an 
party  should  be  given  mjcn  er  dit  on  the 
national  Issues,  they  felt  almost  com- 
pelled to  be  Democrats  on  state 
Issues. 

"The  greater  p  ,rtion  of  the  Republican 
vote  in  Kentutky,"  said  one  editor,  "i.'J 
retiesented  by  the  illiL-rale  tetiple  an<i 
the  negro.  As  a  matter  of  self-preserva- 
tion fhe  better  <  lerr.ent  must  be  Dem  •• 
crats  and  stand  l)y  each  other  in  order  1 1 
out  good  men  in  office.  A  great  many 
Kentuckians  that  are  Republican  on  na- 
tional issues  are  Democrats  on  state  and 
local  Lssues  because  of  this  very  rea- 
son." 

The  party  when  it  reached  the  head  of 
trie  lake  was  much  smaller  than  when 
it  started  from  Louisvine,  as  many  of 
the  newspaper  men  stopped  off  for  a  visit 
at  various  cities  along  the  route  and  will 
join  the  partv  o  1  the  return  trio. 

.\t  the  Snaldi  ig  hotel  this  afternoon 
the  association  .vas  met  by  Beriah  Ma- 
goffin, an  old  Kentucklan.  and  members 
of  the  local  pres?.

gers, most  of  whom  were  from  New-

the  cool  breezes  proving  a  great  con- 
trast to  the  heat  in  the  cities  in  the

this  afternoon,  on  her  return  trip,  with 
about  17.">  passengers.  The  list  from  St.

New  York,  July  28.— Chairman  Jones,

Romanoo  of  tho  DaM^htar 
Italian  Colonal. 

The  story  of  Gina  Sobrero,  the 
ful  daughter  of  Col.  Sobrero, 
Italian  army.  Is  a  romance  which  reads 
like  a  modernized  versiem  of  Bulwer'is 
"I>ady  of  Lyons.  "  Like  the 
Deschapelles  of  tictlon,  this 
dreamed  of  being  a  queen  on  the  throne 
of  a  country  in  whose  existence  sensu- 
ousness  i)lays  the  greater  part.  And 
like  Pauline,  this  Italian  girl  found  hei* 
dream  dispelled  and  her  pride  humbled- 
Beyond  tbis  there  Is  no  analogy  be- 
tween the  two  tales,  for  the  modern 
Pauline  had  a  practical  streak  in  her 
disposition  and  an  appeal  to  the  courts 
of  her  native  Italy  gave  her  her  free- 
dom. T..01 

The  man  in  the  case  Is  Robert  \Mil- 
iam  Wilcox  Lunama  Kaaiuano,  the- 
half-breed  Hawaiian,  who  some  years 
ago  acnuired  fame  as  the  leader  of  a 
revolutionary  movement  in  his  native 
land.  King  Kalakaua  sent  him  to 
Italy  to  study  ami  at  the  Royal  Artillery 
schoeil  at  Turin  he  met  the  family  of 
one  of  his  instructors.  Col.  Sobrero. 
and  be^^-ame  a  welcome  guest.  Hero 
the  romance  begins. 

The  colonel's  wife  was  a  woman  of 
high  aristocratic  lin«»age.  She  was  a 
born  Colonna  di  Stlgliano  and  had  a 
right  to  be  calleKi  a  prlneess.  Her 
daughter,  (Jina.  Is  the  heroine.  She- 
had  beauty  and  was  romantic.  Sh<- 
had  made  a  reputation  for  her.sdf  as 
a  writer  under  the  the  nom  de  plume  of 
"Mantea.  '  Her  j)oems  and  her  novels 
reflected  her  love  of  romance  and  ad- 
venture. 

Wilcox  became  her  hero.  He  was 
handsome,  a  glib  and  smooth  talker, 
and  he  lold  her  marvelous  tale?  of  the- 
"island  of  ptfrpelual  summer"  In  the 
Pa«itic  with  its  life  of  lazy  luxury  and 
self-gratification.  He  pictured  the 
tropical  be^auty  of  Hawaii  as  once 
Claude  Melnotte  had  rhapsoelized  on 
the  charms  (»f  Como. 

Fact  did  not  suffice  him  in  his  ardent 
wooing,  so  he  drew  on  his  Imagination. 
He  told  her  that  he  was  In  fact  the 
son  of  Kalakaua,  and.  as  such,  .the 
legitimate  heir  to  the  throne  of  the 
Kamehamehas.  Gina  surrendered,  and 
the  pair  were  married.  Sf)on  after  Wil- 
cox carrieel  his  bride  across  erne  ceinti- 
nent  and  two  oceans  to  his  native  isle. 
The  young  Italian  girl's  dream  was 
soon  dispelled.  She  discovered  that 
her  husband  was  not  of  reiyal  birth, 
but  was  half  caste,  the  .son  of  a  Kanaka 
girl  and  an  .American  laborer.  With 
this  di.se-overy  came  the  other  that  she 
did  not  love  her  husband  for  himself. 
For  a  while  she  lived  on,  a  sort  of  pri- 
soner: then,  with  the  'assistance  of  the 
French  consul  at  Honolulu,  she  man- 
aged to  escape,  and  reaehed  this  city, 
savs  A  San  Francisco  correspondent  of 
the  New  York  World.  She  was  with- 
out funds,  r»nd  for  months  made  a  pre- 
carious existence  writing  for  the  local 
Italian  papers. 

A  purse  was  raised  for  her  among 
her  countrymen,  and  five  years  ago  .she 
returned  to  her  native  Italy.  She  be- 
gan suit  for  the  annulment  of  her  mar- 
riage at  once,  alleging  false  pr<4e>nses 
on  the  part  of  her  husband.  After 
a  contest  of  two  ye-ars'  duration  the  case 
vva.s  decided  against  her  on  tHe  ground 
of  insufficient  evidence.  From  this 
judgment  Mfs.  Wilcox  appealed  to  the 
high  tribunal  granted  the  decree  of  an- 
nulment. 

It  is  a  notable  fact  that  this  Is  the 
first  marriage  annulled  In  the  courts  of 
Italy  since  that  of  Garibaldi  In  1870. 

Since  the  day  the  poetess  Gina  de- 
serted him,  WiLcox  has  had  a  lively 
career.  He  led  .the  native  Insurrection 
against  .the  government  of  President 
Dore.  Taken  prisoner,  he  was  con- 
victed of  treason  and  sentenced  t«» 
ileath.  This  sentence  was  commuted  to 
a  fine  of  $10,000  and  a  term  of  o.'>  ye'ars 
in  prison.  Wilcox,  wh«).  Ignoring  his 
Italian  wife,  had  become  a  relative  of 
the  Kamehamehas  by  his  marriage  to 
Princess  Kaehelaini,  was  permitted  to 
escape.  He  lived  In  San  Francisco 
for  awhile.  The  sentence  was  quashed, 
and  he  has  recently  returneel  to  Hono- 
lulu, where  he  now  holels  a  public  of- 
fice.

THE  PRINCIPAL  SALES 

Gbester  Terrace  Among  tke 

Properties  Sold— Business 

Properly  Negotiated. 


There  was  no  liiiist  »{  .hillness  on  the 
real  estate  business  of  Duluih  this  week. 
Deal  after  deal  of  importance  was  an- 
nounced, and  altogether  it  was  as  active 
u  week  as  there  has  l>een  for  a  long  timr. 
This  wui:  somewhat  unexpected  to  many, 
too,  as  it  has  l>een  supposed  that  real  es- 
tate was  laying  off  for  the  summer,  and 
that  no  very  pronounced  activity  could  be 
expected  before  fall.  Of  a  sudden,  how- 
fver.  conditions  sprang  actively  Into  life, 
and    agents    report    a    lively    tlemand    for 

Duluth  reality. 

*    *    • 

The  most  important  announcement  of 
the  week  was  the  sale  of  Chester  terract, 
un  First  slret-t  betwet-n  Twelfth  and  Thir- 
teenth avenues  east  for  $»w>,0O»t.  The  sale 
was  made  by  Julius  D.  Howard  &  Co. 
from  the  First  Nationul  bank  to  Louis  N. 
Benjamin  and  W.  B.  Ardouin.  both  of  this 
cltv,  so  the  property  went  to  local  buy- 
ers", which  is  always  an  encouraging 
feature.  The  terrace  was  built  ten  years 
ago.  It  has  a  frontage  of  300  feet  on  First 
street.  There  are  fifteen  houses,  and  as  all 
of  them  are  rented  steadily  it  is  regarded 
as  very  desirable  property. 
»    •    » 

Another  interesting  deal  was  the  trans- 
fer of  the  brick  block  on  Superior  street 
now  occupied  by  the  Totman  livery.  Mrs. 
Acheah  M.  Espenschiet,  of  St.  I..OUIS. 
purchased  property  for  $r><>,t)"-tO  from  Cal- 
vin Totman.  of  Fairiield,  Mo.,  and  Williani 
A.  Brooke,  of  Haverhill,  Mass.,  through 
R.  B.  Knox  &  Co.  The  property  is  locaitd 
at  220  West  Sup<*rior  street,  has  a  front-

erable decreases.  Duluth  shows  a  slight

Ilearned  review  of  the  horror.  1 1 


j  F.  W.  Fitzpatrick  of  Washington,  Formdy  I 

of  Duluth,  Criticises  a  Paper  By  Rev. 

Dr.  Samuel  G.  Smith  of 

St.  Paul. 


London.  July  10.— The  establishment  of 
absinthe  distilleries  In  this  country  will 
be  €on-tested  hotly  by  the  Women's 
Christian  Temperance  union,  which  is 
convinced  that  such  a  development  in 
the  United  States  would  be  ivroductive 
of  much  mischief  to  the  nation. 

Tbe  use  of  absinthe  principally  is  eun- 
flDed  to  France,  where  the  compound 
seems  to  have  become  an  almost  na- 
tional beverage,  so  far  as  France  with 
all  its  towerine  ambition  to  become  a 
Kredt  nation  has  used  all  iCie  varieti.  s 
of  stimulation  that  could  be  devised,  and 
today  is  the  one  republic  in  Kumpe 
where  the  intluence  of  the  use  «>f  a  nn  ro 
stimulant  has  reacted  most  disastrous^' 
upon  the  strength  of  the  people. 

The  use  "f  akjhul  in  any  form  has 
been  onsidered  of  doubtful  value  by 
even  the  best  phyaicians.  but  when  ex- 
treme measures  have  called  for  Us  us*' 
it  has  not  been  denied  evei;  '-^  '■  «suiial 
authorities. 

None  of  these,  however,  ^^  u.-l  pre- 
scribe absinthe,  which  as  a  drink  even 
is  the  most  harmful  of  all  things  that 
run  be  Indulged  in,  its  exhilarating 
's  giving  place  subsequently  to  a 
rgry  which  offsets  all  the  fals-i 
l.^nefits  1  from  its  use. 

The  e-  ment   of  absinthe   distil- 

Uries  in  the  fnited  States,  with  un- 
limited capacity  for  distributing  the 
detrimental  drug,  it  is  considered,  would 


drinks  which  nature  supplies.  He  turns 
his  attention  to  manufactured  alcoholic 
drinks.  He  has  thought  to  find  alcohol 
a  source  of  joy.  a  source  of  vigor.  He 
has  only  found  in  it  unhaopiness,  ruin, 
decreptitude  and  illness.  It  is  not  enough 
for  man  to  lose  his  reason  through  alco- 
hol. He  wanted  .still  further  to  do  some- 
thing to  satisfy  his  worst  instincts.  He 
must  have  a  sovereign  liquor  that  not 
onlv  would  produce  all  the  above  result.s, 
but  also  would  deprive  him  of  his  con- 
science. So  he  invented  absinthe. 
Working  people  in  the  great  towns, 
women  of  the  people,  the  idle  peasantry 
are  duped  by  this  dreadful  liciuor.  They 
are  not  aware  what  a  satanic  Doison 
thev  are  imnosing  on  their  delicate 
brains.  The  mt)ment  they  create  such 
an  appetite  is  a  dark  hour. 

Who  could  possibly  remember  the 
crimes,  the  acts  of  barbarism,  the  acts 
of  fury  created  by  the  magic  green 
li<iuor.  which  is  filling  the  asylums.  See 
there,  a  man  whose  )»ody  is  in  a  perpet- 
ual trembling  condition.  He  has  a  good 
foot,  a  good  eye,  and  he  is  enraged  that 
he  can  no  longer  work.  He  is  a  drinker 
uf  absinthe. 

See  again  another!  Suddenly  his  face 
pales,  he  is  covered  with  perspiration,  he 
wears  a  frightened  look.  He  has  had  a 
morneniary  unconsciousness  and  a  sud- 
den dizziness.  In  a  moment  he  has  lost 
con.sciousness  of  all  his  surroundings. 
T-at  man  is  an  absinthe  drinker.  See 
a  poor  bricklayer  lying  on  a  stretcher. 


The  appalling  catastrophe,  long  ex- 
pected, has  come  at  last.  It  Is  some- 
thing like  the  uprising  in  Egypt  in  1882. 
An  explosion  without  a  warning,  atten- 
ded by  the  »ack  of  Alexandria  and  the 
slaughter  of  sixty  foreigners.  The 
Chinese  storm  had  been  giving  forth 
ominous  soimds  for  months  and  even 
years,  and  when  it  broke  it  covered  all 
North  China,  an  area  as  large  as  New 
p:ngland  and  the  middle  states,  with  a 
population  numbering  100.000,000.  suij- 
poi  ted  l>y  the  most  powerful  Asiatic 
government. 

iilvidentlv  we  are  on  the  eve  of  mt>Ft 
tremendou's  events.  The  curtain  ha.-s 
been  lifted  on  the  lurid  drama  of  a 
mighty  upheaval,  and  before  it  falls 
s<jme  mt)Kt  Important  historical  events 
will  have  taken  place.  The  final  result 
will  be  the  invasion,  if  not  the  ultimate 
partition,  ol  China.  During  the  interiiii 
foreigners  will  be  massacred,  with  greit 
slaughter,  as  in  1S70.  European  powers 
were  only  \.ailir.g  for  a  good  excuse  to 
tcnvert  their  "sphere  «»f  influence"  into 
colonial  possessions,  but  they  <lid  not 
expect  the  excuse  to  Ik-  furnished  so 
i^oon.  nor  did  they  anticipate  that  inert 
China,  so  long  inactive  and  so  appa- 
aintlv  imb«cile,  .should  be  the  fiiat  lo 
invite  disaster  by  drawing  the  sword 
against  the  hated  foreigners.  The  cor- 
rupt Chinese  government  has  nursed  the 
mob  which  for  two  years  has  terrorized 
the  countrv.  has  endorsed  the  ahccking 
outrages  of  the  "Boxers."  and  as  a  re- 
sult the  Oriental  commune  rules  the 
capital.  The  empress  soweil  the  wind, 
jind  «hc  is  now  reaping  the  whirlwind. 
CHKONOLO<;iCAI.  OHDEK  OF 
EVENTS. 

A  mysterious  secret  society  fif  armed 
„,(„— called  "Boxers."  have  for  about 
two  yat:^  lieen  killing  native  Christians 
and  burning  mission  property. 

May  19  the  village  of  Lai  Shun,  .sev- 
enty miles  north  of  Pekin,  wa:>  burned 
and  seventy-three  native  Christians 
were  killed.  ,  , 

Later  missionaries  were  rescued  from 


streets  on  the  points  of  spears,  chanting 
the  Boxer's  dirge:  "Kill  the  foreign 
devils!     Kill!     Kill!" 

June  28,  the  foreigners  were  making 
their  last  stand  in  the  British  legation. 
Starving  men,  women  and  children, 
with  little  ammunition,  upheld  by  the 
hourly  expectation  of  relief,  still  con- 
tinues the  fight.  They  could  not  believe 
that  their  governments  would  abandon 
them,  and  sometimes  they  thought  they 
heard  artillery  in  action  beyond  the 
walls.  But  we  know  they  hoped  and 
trusted  in  vain.  Yet  the  allied  forces 
had  about  '20,000  troops  less  than  100 
miles  away. 

June  30  or  uJly  1.  1600  were  horribly 
massacred  in  the  British  legation.  Men 
were  mutilated,  women  outraged  and 
children  tortured.  The  Pekin  govern- 
ment is  guilty  of  the  greatest  crime  of 
the  century. 

This  which  1  have  recited  is  not  war 
for  the  defense  of  their  country.  The 
slaughter  of  the--e  people  who  were 
helpless  and  anxious  to  flee  was  in- 
human and  devili.sh.  and  will  in  the  end 
wreck   the  Chinese  eminre. 

1  care  not  whose  fault  it  may  be  that 
the  war  has  been  brought  on,  all  that  the 
European  nations  ever  have  done 
against  China  would  not  justify  such  a 
slaughter  of  helpless  non-combatants. 
Such  a  cruel  government  has  no  right  to 
exist,  and  should  not  be  permitted  to 
see  the  dawn  of  the  twentieth  century. 
The  world  should  no  longer  be  cursed 
with  the  possibility  of  such  horrid  mas- 
sacres. 

President  McKinley,  In  sending  forces 
to  protect  and  reseue  from  peril  Ameri- 
can citizens  and  diplomatic  officers  in 
Pekin.  was  in  the  right,  and  should  be 
upheld  by  every  true  Anieriean  citizen. 
If  our  constitution  does  not  pruvide  for 
such  an  emergency  as  this,  without  the 
delay  of  calling  a  session  of  congress, 
then  the  constitution  needs  another 
amendment.  The  only  act  of  war  which 
has  been  committed  was  the  bombard- 
ment of  the  forts,  in  which  our  ships 
did  net  take  jiart:  yet  Ann-rican  citizens 
have  been  slain  and  American  property

be  .in  opening  wedge  for  the  introduction 
of  the  deleterious  compound  in  many 
far-reaching  ways  not  n<)w  covered  by 
the  imported  article. 

Therefore,  in  the  line  of  good  morals;, 
the  W.  C.  T.  U.  will  figtit  against  such 
pci?si  bill  ties. 

The  president  of  the  W.  C.  T.  1'.  has 
written  us  a  forcible  signed  editorial  on 
the  subject  from  London,  where  she  is 
attending  the  international  temperance 
congress.  It  teems  with  evidence  of  th" 
fatal  influences  to  be  derived  from  the 
use  of  the  seductive  French  concoc- 
tion. 

I  am  amaaed  that  the  proposition  is 
made  to  establish  absinthe  distilleries 
in  the  I'nited  States.  I  need  not  say  that 
there  would  be  a  great  protest  from  the 
JOO.O'W  White  Ribboners  of  our  ciuntry 
in  reganl  to  introducing  this  poison  into 
the  United  States,  and  not  alone  would 
the  temperance  women  and  all  other 
good  women,  and  all  uell-inf>rmed  men, 
diplore  such  an  action,  but  the  women 
of  the  World's  Women  Christian  Tem- 
perance union,  ef'peeially  those  in 
France,  where  its  effects  are  most  know  n 
becnis*  it  is  most  used,  join  with  us  in 
the  hoiie  and  prayer  thsit  America  may 
be  sav«'d  from  sur-h  a  curse. 

Some  of  the  leading  French  physicians 

are  fully  aroused  to  (he  fact  that   their 

tountry   is  deteriorating  becau.se  of  the 

universal    use   of   int  ixicating     li«iuors. 

.\mong  the.so  physicians  is  Dr.  Legrain. 

who    stands    at    the    head    of    the    Aisle 

DAHenes  de  Vi'.le  Evrard.     He  is  only  a 

specialist,  but  he  ranks  high  in  the  uop- 

ntar  regard  of  the  people  of  Fram^.     I 

mav  not  do  better  than  give  yi>u  in  his 

own    words   a   description   of   what   ab- 

-'•'he  is.     I  believe  it   would   be   mop.? 

ful  coming  from  a  French  physician 

V..'.  knows  all  about  it,  t--.an  for  me  to 

write  at  further  length.    So  I  pass  along 

to  the  people  of  the  Unit  •!   ^'-'es  the 

testimony  of  Dr.  Legrain 


It  is  a  great  folly  which  induces  man 

tvb<.v    to    be    indiff<-rfnt    to    the   healthy 


They  arc-  taking  him  to  the  hospital 
where  he  quickly  will  die.  leaving  for- 
ever his  wife  and  his  children.  He  has 
fallen  from  a  scaffolding.  A  sudden  un- 
consciousness caused  him  to  lose  his 
equilibrium.  He  is  killed,  caused  through 
absinthe  drinking. 

.\nother  instance!  The  people  are  ter- 
rified to  see  an  unhappy  man  beatins; 
the  earth,  a  victim  of  a  violent  attack. 
His  tongue  is  bitten  by  his  teeth.  A 
bloody  foam  runs  out  of  his  mouth.  His 
features  are  all  distorted.  It  is  an 
epileptic,  and  it  is  the  work  of  ab- 
sinthe. 

See  below  in  the  court  there,  where 
are  a  number  of  insensible  persons.  A 
man  is  seized  with  an  indescribable  de- 
spair. One  Saturday  in  his  holiday  hour 
he  had  drunk  frequent  little  sips  of  ab- 
sinthe. <)n  returning  to  his  lodgings  he 
was  suddenly  seized  with  vioknt  rage. 
He  kiiled  his  wife  and  his  two  children 
wit^irut  having  the  least  consciousness 
nf  what  he  was  doing.  He  energetically 
denies  that  he  did  the  deed,  to  persons 
who  know  him.  He  knows  nothing  about 
it.  The  absinthe  drinking  made  of  this 
man  a  dangerous  automaton. 

Sec,  again,  this  woman!  She  rocks  the 
chi'd  in  the  cradle.  She  is  seized  sud- 
denly by  most  terrible  convulsions  and 
ill-treats  her  child.  A.sk  the  cause  cf 
tliis  cruel  treatment  and  we  shall  point 
to  the  fatal  absinthe.  Always  nbsinthe" 
It  is  a  murderer.  Dante  in  supplying 
the  terrors  he  described,  did  not  know 
anything  more  terrible  than  this. 

The  United  States  suffers  already 
deeply  enough  from  the  brewery  and  dis. 
tillery.  and  to  allow  or  encourage  the 
manufacture  and  use  of  that  whic*'  is 
described  as  above  by  one  who  knows 
all  about  it  would  indeed  be  madness.  I 
trust  the  American  people  will  promptly 
and  successfully  resist  any  effort  that 
m?.y  be  made  to  thus  impose  upon  our 
people  such  a  curse.

<:EMS  in  EASTER  EGGS. 

Til-  •ustom  of  giving  elaborate 
Easter  e:;gs  has  been  carried  to  extrava- 
_-;Mi'e  l.v  the  wealthy  and  aristocratic 
[  ,p|p  in  St.  PeiersViurg.  i>ut  no  olhr 
I  women  have  such  collections  of 

1  '  sgs  as   the  young  czarina   and 

tile   •!.. wager  empress,   says   the   Phila- 
deUihia  Record. 

It  has  for  many  generations  been  a 
court  custom  for  the  reigning  czar  to 
give  his  wife  at  Easter  time  an  egg  eun- 
taining  some  handsome  gift,  usually  a 
souvenir  of  some  particular  event,  and 
the  present  czar  and  his  father.  Alexan- 
der III,  have  always  ob.served  the  old 
custom.  The  two  empresses  have,  with 
considerable  misgivings,  it  is  said, 
allovve.!  their  Plaster  egg  collections  to 
go  to  Paris  and  be  placed  on  exhibition 
in  the  Russian  .section  of  the  exposition. 
Many  .^f  the  eggs  are  exceedingly  inter- 
esting as  objects  of  art. 

The  first      received      by  the      present 


czarina  was  given  to  her  in  the  year  of 
her  coronation.  It  is  a  large  golden  egg. 
enameled  in  rose  color,  and  contains  a 
tiny  and  r^'fect  model  of  the  state  car- 
riage in  which  the  young  bride  rode  to 
the  Moscow  cathedral  on  her  wedding 
day.  The  coach  is  of  gold,  cushioned 
in  red  enamel  and  hung  with  tiny  silver 
curtains,  which  can  be  drawn  on  gold 
wires.  The  imperial  crown  in  beautiful 
diamonds  ornaments  the  panels. 

The  last  Piaster  egg  added  to  the  czar- 
ina's collection  was  presented  this  ye^r 
and  Incloses  a  splendid  Jeweled  heart 
set  in  rare  gems  and  surrounded  by 
twentv-flve  tiny  minatures.  portraits  of 
the  members  of  the  Russian  royal 
family. 

FOX  SKINS. 
At  a  recent  fur  sale  a  Parisian  pur- 
chased in  the  open  market  a  black  Sibe- 
rian fox  skin  forty-eight  Inches  by  dght 
inches,  paving  for  It  the  sum  of  $3000. 
When  dressed  it  will  cost  Its  wearer  $5a00. 


various  stations  and   brought   to  Pekin 
lur  safety. 

In  answer  to  an  appeal  from  United 
States  .Minister  Conger,  seven  olfirer-s 
end  flftv-seven  men  from  the  American 
navy  made  their  way  to  Pekin  and  were 
admitted. 

June  22.  Mr.  Morman.  an  English  mis- 
sionary was  killed. 

Urgent  appeals  of  ministers  were 
made  for  troops  to  protect  embassies  and 
mission  property  in  I'ekip.. 

At  the  second  appeal  of  utmost 
urgencv  for  help,  Admiral  Seymour,  of 
the  British  nav\,  with  2500  allied  force-, 
including  100  Americans,  under  Capt. 
McCalla  of  the  crui.^er  Newark,  left 
Tien  Tsin  to  rescue  the  legations. 

All  railroad  communications  werejclis 
covered  to  be  destroyed     between 
Tsin   and   Pekin,   and   the    Boxers 
Chinese    troops.    60.000    stron 
A(;niiral  Seymour's  approach. 

June  12.  all  telegraphic  communication 
with  Pekin  ceased.  ' 

The  Ninth  regiment  of  United     States 
infantry  was  ordered  to  sail  from  Man- 
June  16.  all  the    legations    in    Pekin. 
save  the  British,  were  burned. 

June  17,  the  forts  at  Taku  were  bom- 
!)arded  by  the  allied  navy,  and  after- 
ward taken  by  storm.  Fully  TOO  Chinese 
and  100  Europeans  were  killed. 

On  th'  same  day  "Boxers"  and  native 
troops  attacked  the  foreign  settlement 
of  Tien  Tsin.  burned  the  Catholic  cathe- 
dral a  mission  chapel,  the  American 
consulate  and  many  Chinese  houses. 

June  18.  Baron  Von  Ketteler.  German 
ambassador,  was  murdered  by  Chinese 
troops.  Prince  Tuan  had  laid  a  trap  to 
assassinate  all  the  foreign  ministers, 
but  those  of  the  other  legations  were 
suspicious,  and  would  not  leave  their 
quarters.  ...   ^  , 

June  23.  Seymour's  allied  forces  were 
ambushed,  eight  miles  from  Tien  Tsin. 
by  Chinese  troops,  and  after  sixty-three 
were   killed  and   20   wounded,   implored 

aid.  ^  ,.^^„ 

June  25.  relief  column  of  2000  men  was 
sent  to  Seymour. 

June  26  Prince  Tuan  had  full  control 
of  the  capital,  had  publicly  beheaded  all 
captured  legation  guards,  and  the 
throng  carried   the   heads   through   the 


destroyed  as  freely  as  that  of  i:uropean 
powers. 
PRESBYTERIAN  CHINESE  MIS- 
SIONS 
Were  inaugurated  in  1844,  and  they  ha\e 
grown  until  we  now  have  seven  general 
missions  in  the  empire  doing  a  grand 
work.  Wc  are  maintaining  a  large  force, 
and  it  is  an  outrage  that  certain  parties 
have  attempted  to  make  the  Chinese  up- 
I  ising  look  like  a  religious  war,  and  that 
missionarv  work  is  at  the  bottom  of  the 
present  trouble.  There  is  nothin.i; 
further  from  the  truth.  The  real  cause 
of  the  anti-foreign  feeling  is  the  de- 
mands of  European  natiims  for  terri- 
torial indemnity.  The  war  has  been 
brought  on  by  land-hungry  Europe. 

The  Presbyterian  church  entered  the 
work  in  China  at  the  command  of  our 
Master,  who  said:  "Go  ye  into  all  the 
world  and  preach  My  gospel  to  every 
creature." 

We  would  not  l:>e  oloedient  to  Him  if, 
because  it  was  dangerous  and  diflicult  in 
China,  we  refused  to  go.  Christ's  com- 
mand, and  China's  great  need,  are  the 
only  excuses  we  offer  for  having  mis- 
sionaries in  the  Celestial  empire. 

We  have  sent  our  best  men  and  wo- 
men filled  with  the  spirit  of  the  meek 
and  lowly  Jesus.  Without  antagonism, 
or  political  ambition,  but  with  love  and 
sympathy,  they  reveal  Christ  as  a  loving 
Savior. 

The  Chinese  are  the  hardest  people  to 
impress  with  which  the  missionaries 
ever  dealt.  The  difficulties  in  the  way 
are  hard  to  surmount.  The  magnitude 
of  both  the  country  and  the  population 
overawes  you.  The  diflicult  language, 
with  jts  numerou.-=  dialects,  discourages 
vou.  Like  the  people  of  Athens,  the 
Chinese  already  are  too  religious,  for 
they  have  portions  of  three  contradic- 
tory religious,  viz.— Confucianism.  Tao- 
ism and  Buddhism— existing  in  a  con- 
glomerate state  in  the  mind,  and  with- 
out any  sincere  love  of  Christ,  they  are 
willing  to  have  Him  set  up  with  other 
sods  in  their  pantheon. 

The  missionarv  finds  himself  placed  at 
a  disadvantage  in  his  work,  for  the  mo- 
ment he  lands  he  is  impressed  with  his 
inferiority  and  informed  that  he  is  the 
uncivilized,  the  barbarian,  and,  there- 
fore the  gospel  he  brings  must  of  neces- 


sity be  inferior. 

They  have  been  taught  for  hundreds  of 
years  the  inherent  goodness  of  human 
nature,  and  because  it  is  "natural"  for 
man  to  be  good,  they  teach  that  it  is  an 
easv  matter,  therefore,  to  loe  good. 
Chriatianitv  teaches  the  opposite  doQ- 
trine  which  is  a  shock  to  the  Chinese 
Idea."  The  Chinese  are  a  .selfish  people, 
looking  wholly  to  the  profit  side  of 
everything.  Li  Hung  Chang  exhibited 
that  national  trait  when  he  made  his 
tour  through  America.  He  asked  every- 
body he  met  what  they  were  worth,  or 
what  salary  they  received.  It  Is  hard 
for  them  to  'l)elleve  that  "it  is  more 
biessed  to  give  than  to  receive."  They 
nelleve  the  missionaries  are  not  working 
for  love,  but  lay  up  for  themselves 
merit  in  heaven.  The  idea  of  love  is 
forei.gn  to  most  of  them. 

Robert  E.  Speer,  after  studj'ing  the 
Chinese  character  and  mission  work  on 
the  ground,  said: 

"No  human  gospel  could  find  such  a 
foothold  as  Christianity  has  gained  on 
such  hopeless  soil.  On  the  other  hand, 
there  is  no  other  race  in  the  world  that 
can  compare  with  the  Chinese  in 
patience,  cheerfulness,  industry,  fru- 
gality, endurance,  capacity  for  vi-ork 
and  suffering— qualities  out  of  which  the 
spirit  of  God  can  make  such  a  church  as 
has  not  been  built  up  yet  in  the  world." 
The  church  cannot  turn  back  from  her 
work  in  China. 

RUSSIAN  DIPLOMACY 
Is  at  work  behind  the  scenes.  Her  dream 
is  to  gain  control  of  all  Asia.  She  has 
rail  and  water  communications  from  St 
Petersburg  to  the  gates  of  Pekin.  She 
has  200,000  soldiers  at  Port  Arthur,  and 
300.000  scattered  along  the  line  in  Cen- 
tral Asia,  which  can  be  rapidly  carried 
to  Pekin.  The  Manchus,  who  years  aga 
conquered  China,  and  are  now  the 
reigning  dynasty  at  Pekin,  have  in  turn 
been  conquered"  by  Russia.  Most  of 
Central  Asia  has  been  confiscated  by 
Russia  in  the  last  twenty-five  years. 
Since  the  Japanese-Chinese  war.  Rus- 
sian influence  has  been  supreme  at 
I'ekin.  To  absorb  all  Asia  is  the  stake 
Russia  is  playing  for.  Confident  that 
the  Anglo-Saxon  race  has  seen  the  apex 
of  itu  glory,  the  Slav  believes  he  Is  to 
rise  with  the  twentieth  century,  to  the 
position  of  world-dictator.  H«  admits, 
however,  one  rival— America. 

Ru."sia  is  largelv  responsible  for  the 
massacre  of  the  legations  in  Pekm. 
Japan,  with  an  army  of  200.000  men, 
well  ai-med  and  drilled,  was  ready  and 
willing  long  ago  to  rescue  the  imperrilled 
legations  at  Pekin,  but  Russian  jealousy 
prevented  Japanese  action,  and  men, 
w^omen  and  children  were  Tbft  to  a  hor- 
rible fate.  The  reports  to  the  effect  that 
since  the  empress  has  regained  her 
power,  she  assures  the.  public  that  for- 
eign ambassadors  still  are  .safe,  is  un- 
founded. If  the  foreign  ministers  were 
alive  and  free  to  act.  they  would  cer- 
tainlv  be  al>le  to  effect  some  commUiU- 
cation  with  the  outside  world. 

The  European  concert  of  powers  is  a 
disgrace  to  the  closing  years  of  the  nine- 
teenth century.  It  is  dominated  by 
Russia  who  cares  nothing  for  the  loss 
of         a  few  innocent  lives, 

provided  the  interests  of  the 
empire  are  advanced.  Such  in- 
human rulers  as  the  sultan  of  Turkey 
and  the  empress  of  China  are  sharp 
enough  to  see  that  jealousy  will  prevent 
harmonv  in  the  European  concert,  and 
therefore  will  protect  them  in  their  ter- 
rible slaughter.  The  lack  of  success  at 
Tien  Tsin  is  due  to  tliis  same  jealousy. 
Jealousy  in  the  concert  of  powers  is  re- 
sponsible for  the  Graeco-Turkish  war, 
the  Armenian  slaughter  and  the  Pekui 
massacre. 

THE  FUTURE. 
That  i3  a  hard  question  to  solve.  Who 
knov.s  the  future?  No  one  can  foretell 
War,  with  its  iron  heel,  may  trample 
down  much  of  the  fruit  of  the  most 
heroic  labor.  But  we  cannot  believe  that 
God  will  permit  a  permanent  setback  to 
civilization  in  the  Orient.  Every  great 
forward  movement  has  its  times  of  re 
ticgression,  but  nothing  can  stop 
progress  of  civilization  in  China 
government  of  China  plants  itself  in  the 
v.'ay  to  thwart  its  progress,  that  govern- 
ment certainly  will  go  to  pieces. 

What  part  America  will  take  in  the 
future  development  of  China  depends 
on  the  coming  November  election,  if 
the  present  administration  is  kept  m 
p(,wer.  and  the  policy  of  expansion  is 
thus  endorsed,  America  will  take  a  large 
hind  in  determining  the  future  of  Chinn. 
If  or  the  other  hand.  Mr.  Bryan  should 
be  placed  in  power,  we  thus  would  re- 
pudiate expansion  and  resume  the  in- 
artive  attitude  which  has  been  the 
policy  of  our  country  toward  China  for 
forty  years. 

American  interests  in  China  are  not 
insig,niflcart.  as  many  .suppose.  The 
United  States  ranks  third  both  in  for- 
eign population  and  foreign  commerce. 
Great  Britain  and  Jai)an  ranking  first 
and  second.  These  three  nations  have 
l)ersisientlv  opposed  the  conquert,  or 
partition,  of  China.  Yet  government  by 
the  present  Chinese  dynasty,  under  the 
protectorate  of  the  concert  of  European 
powers,  if  Turkey  is  a  criterion,  would 
be  years  of  Turkish  slaughter  on  a  large 
scale.  The  civilized  world  certainly 
could  not  tolerate  that.  China  is  so 
completelv  decentralized  that  war  in  the 
North  will  not  neces.sarily  involve 
governments  of  the  South  province?.  J 
is  to  be  hoped  that  South  China  will  ro 
main  neutral.  It  is  believed  that  God 
will  rule  over  all  for  the  advancement  of 
civilization  and  of  Christ's  kingdom^ 
CHARLES  M.  ALFORD 


The  March  nurrber  of  Papular  Science 
Monthly  containel  a  paper  on  "Typical 
Criminals."  by  tht  Rev.  S.  G.  Smith.  That 
paper  has  attracted  considerable  notice. 
Its  appearance  in  a  magazine  of  as  high  a 
standard  and  its  author  having  acquired 
some  prominence  as  a  pulpit  orator,  In- 
sured that.  His  b  jing  a  clergyman  and  his 
commenting  upon  a  "crass  materialism" 
also  Insured  his  paper's  being  quoted  and 
most  favorably  commented  upon  by  the  re- 
ligious and  seml-:-eligious  press. 

That  paper  in  some  respects  is  an  extra- 
ordinary production.  The  off-handed,  easy 
manner  in  which  Lombroso.  Tarnowsky, 
Lavater.  Spencer.  Brodie,  Gall  and  such 
scientists  and  their  deductions  are  waived 
aside,  sneered  at  as  mere  "inft^^-tions,"  is, 
to  say  the  least,  refreshing,  and  the  assur- 
ance that  they  have  not  misled  "those  men 
to  whom  practical  experience  has  given  ttie 
most  right  to  have  an  opinion  upon  the 
subject,"  among  whom  we  must  undoubt- 
aby  place  the  re\  erend  author,  should  be 
cause  for  much  jubilation  among  us  plain 
laymen. 

The  author  Insists  upon  "personal  re- 
sponsibility, '  yet  but  a  few  lines  beyond 
where  he  disposes  of  Lambro.so  et  al.,  he 
says  he  will  not  discuss  one  of  the  awful 
examples  h©  shov/s  because,  forsooth,  that 
example  is  a  negro,  and  he  cares  not  to 
enter  Into  racial  questions.  Does  he  re- 
fuse the  negro  any  of  the  privileges  of 
"personal  respor  sibility"  merely  on  ac- 
count of  his  coloi  ?  Then  a  few  paragraphs 
further  on  he,  to  a  degree,  excuses  a  mur- 
derer, who  is  "hKrdly  morally  responsible, 
his  family  i.s  crin-.inal:  his  father  murdered 
his  mother  in  a  most  brutal  manner  before 
the  child's  eves  when  the  latter  was  but  8 
years  old."  Why  is  that  man  exempted 
from  the  personally  responsible,  architect- 
of-his^own-fortune  class?  Oh!  consistency, 
thou  art  a  jewel.    . 

The  author  theo  gives  us  eleven  pictures 
of  criminals  to  prove  that  Lombroso's  the- 
ory of  degenerate  s  Is  untenable  in  that  the 
eleven  are  not  abnormally  malformed,  but, 
on  the  contrary,  a  pretty  fair  looking  lot  of 
men.  One  In  faci.  he  says,  has  the  head  ot 
a  i)hllosopher,  and  another,  he  admits, 
might  have  made  "under  proper  clrcum- 
Btances,  "an  adnrirable  Sunday  school  sup- 
erintendent. Parenthetically  1  might  here 
again  ask  as  to  what  can  circumstances 
have  to  do  with  the  case  and  as  to  where 
the  personal  resoonsibillty  of  the  individ- 
ual come  In. 

The  author  submltte<]  those  eleven  pic- 
tures to  a  comn  iitee  of  five,  a  .lawyer,  a 
physician,  a  rail -oad  president,  a  criminal 
judge  and  a  college  professor,  to  name  the 
crimes   those   cr  minals  are  in   liml)o   for, 
and  to  group  thetn  according  to  their  crim- 
inal record. He  frankly  admits  that  the  fact 
of   his   criminals   not   being   adorned   with 
collars   and    neckties   may    have   seriousl.y 
hampered    his    (ommiltee    in    judging    ot 
those   criminals'    characters.         But     then 
thei'e    were    compensations,    for    while    his 
committee    was    unsuccessfully    wrestling 
with  the  coilarless  character  he  was  quiet- 
ly   judging    th»    judges,    and    he    actually 
found   more  anomalies  of  organization  In 
those  five  distin^ruishtd  citizens  than  were 
apparent  In  his  .'leven  hardened  criminals. 
Of  course  he  magnanimously  refrains  from 
giving   us   the  names  of  those  gentlemen 
who.  in  spite  of  their  anomalies,  are  still 
out  of  jail  and  have  in  fact  acquired  na- 
tional  reputations.     The   reverend    gentle-

The  very  highest  of  authorities  assure  us

tures.iU-.'ihaped  ears.unsymmetrical  skulls, 
etc.  These  men  commit  crime  as  naturally 
and  as  irresistably  as  a  fish  takes  to  water,

having  expressed  horror  or  reproach  will 
have  both  his  eyes  thoroughly  blacked. 
Will  Mr.  Smith  be  astonished,  will  he  de- 
lightedly hug  the  good  little  number  one 
for  having  so  nobly  withstood  temptation, 
and  will  he  severely  punish  the  other  for 
succumbing,  or  will  he  simply  try  to  per- 
manently remove  the  poor  lad  from  ma 
natural  environment.  keep  temptation 
away  and  do  the  best  he  can  to  make 
something  of  him? 

If  Mr.  Smith  Is  any  judge  of  character— 
and  1  may  be  permitted  to  expre.ss  some 
doubt  upon  the  subject-he  will  soon  find 
out  what  he  had  belter  do.  If  the  subject 
Is  one  of  Lombroso's  degenerates  there 
will  be  no  use  working  over  him.  he  is  a 
lost  soul,  he  might  as  well  lock  him  up 
and  try  and  fix  it  so  that  there  will  be  as 
few  of  him  come  into  the  world  as  poss - 
ble.  With  man,  as  with  all  animal  as  well 
as  vegetable  life,  each  life  takes  most  of 
Its  characteristics  from  the  life  from 
which  It  sprang.  A  criminal  Is  born  so. 
if  there  be  none  but  crlmmal  propensities 
in  him  he  wfil  remain  so;  if.  o"  the  other 
hand,  there  be  criminal  propensities  hj  one 
I  and  if  there  be  also  other  propensities, 
judgment,  will.  etc..  etc..  one  may.  with 
suitable  environment,  modify,  perhaps  en- 
tirely subjugate  those  criminal  tendencies 
and  become  an  ornament  to  society.  But 
to  do  criminal  deeds  one  must  have  crim 


Inal  propensities  and  natural  ones.  If  we 
have  none  then  no  amount  of  criminal 
environment,  temptation  nor  anything  else 
can  Induce  us  to  commit  crime.  It  we  re- 
main good,  however,  in  the  face  of  an 
temutation  we  certainly  merit  cpmmenda- 
tion  because  no  man  is  born  without  sonrie 
evil  propensities.  The  Catholic  «d«;a  "' 
"concupiscence"  has.  after  all.  some  foun- 
dation in  fact.  Show  me  one  who  is  ab-

AUDIENCES. 

on     his     experiences. 


FORBES' 

As    a   lecturer     _-  . 

Archibald  Forbes  was  very  popular,  and 
he  was  fond  of  recounting  an  experience 
of  his  debut  in  that  capacity  at  Leven, 
Fifeshire.  says  the  Golden  Penny.  \MUi 
a  thumping  heart  the  new  lecturer  ap- 
r  eared  at  the  hall  door  shortly  before 
the  starting  time  of  8  o'clock,  and.  nat 
wishing  to  cru.sh  through  a  great  audi- 
ence on  his  way  to  the  platform,  he 
asked  the  hallkeeper  to  conduct  him  to  a 

side  door.  ,    -^   ^  ^ 

"Ye  needna  mind."  replied  that  func- 
tionary, not      unkindly;      "there's      no 

When  Forbes  entered  the  hall  he  had 
to  admit  that  the  keeper  was  quite  cor- 
rect. There  was  not  a  single  soul  pres- 
ent. After  a  bit,  however,  a  man 
strolled  in.  and  calmly  proceeded  to 
choose  a  seat.  It  seems  he  was  a  com- 
mercial traveler,  putting  up  at  the  place 
for  the  night,  who  had  found  time  hang- 
ing heavily  on  his  hands.  Nobody  else 
coming.  Forbes  said  to  the  "audience: 

"Will  you  have  the  lecture,  or  will  you 
have  a  drink?" 

"A  drink,"  said  the  traveler.

But 
these  alone  corn-

^  „,„„...„ .     Just  how  much  each  indi- 
vidual criminal  is  personally  resposlbl*  for 
his   crimL^  is   a   question,    not   of   maudlin 
sentimentality,  but  of  many  kinde  of  evi- 
dence and    Its   judicial    weighing   and   the 
keenest  examination  of  the  criminal  by  one 
who  has  made  such  study  his  life  s  work 
and    is    otherwise    competent    to    exercise 
those  functions.    The  first  minister  or  doc- 
tor  or  lawyer  one  meets  upon  the  street  is 
hardlv    a   competent    authority      to       pro- 
nounce upon  a  •ellow-being's  character,  his 
motives  for  crime  or  the  extenuating  cir- 
cumstances attending  Its  commission.     It 
our  author  feels  ill  he  may  mention  it  to  a 
bank  president  he  meet  around  the  corner, 
and  that  bank  president  may  I'eel  his  pulse 
and  look  at  hb  tongue  and  say  ■■>Vhy,  my 
dear  Smith,  yo  J  have  a  fever.      But  1  veji- 
ture  that  "my  dear  Smith    will  hie  himself 
to  a  doctor  to  find  out  what  sort  of  fever 
he  has  and  what  he  Is  to  take  to  get  rid  of 
It.    Likewise  Mvlll  he  go  to  the  banker  with 
a  note  even  though  his  doctor  friend  may 
tell  him  he  wil   not  get  much  upon  so-and- 
so's  paper  ,      ,    »        ,_       ■ 

There  is  not  a  lull-fledged  Lombroslan 
pervert  or  degenerate  In  the  eleven  crim- 
inals presented.  It  Is  diflicult  Indeed  to 
lodge  from  a  dngle  and  small  portrait  of 
a  subject.  The  balance  of  the  head,  the 
varvhig  expressions,  the  color  and  texture 
of  {he  skin,  hair,  eyes,  teeth  everything 
about  a  subject  is  such  weighty  evidence 
and  of  so  much  more  Importance  than 
whether  that  subject  wear  a  collar  and 
necktie  or  not.  that  there  is  small  wonder 
that  Mr.  Smith's  committee,  even  thousn 
they  be  experts— and  he  submits  no  proot 
nor  even  a  stutement  that  he  is  introduc 
ine  expert  teUimony,  without  which  wr. 
are  oe'-fectly  justified  in  excluding  it  as 
"immaterial,  rrelevant  and  Incompeteni 
—could  not  exactly  place  any  of  taose 
criminals.  _     ^  ,,,.•! 

Even  his  brutal  No.  3  of  group  1  cou.d 
have  been  wonderfully  changed  by  a  uu- 
ferent  environment,  and  yet  he  Is  the  near- 
est approach  to  the  type  we  are  told  does 
not  exist.  His  No.  1  of  group  2  s  far  fiom 
a  born  pervert.  His  trouble  lies  in  his 
weakness  of  character.  He  >s  cap«b  e  of 
good,  even  of  noble  Impulses  and  probably 
has  carried  them  out;  his  forging  Is  inci- 
dental to  laziness  and  to  that  weakness 
If  Mr.  Smith  wishes  to  show  us  a  real 
I^mbrosian  type,  the  abnormal  featuies 
i  e.  carried  to  the  highest  perfection  ( !) 
he  can  obtain  it  by  a  composite  picture  of

such  in  the  orison,  then  Indeed  has  tne

of  punishment  misapplied. 

Of  course  the  "subject  affects  the  ad- 
ministration of  law.  the  theory  of  puiv- 
ishment  and  the  safety  of  society.  Few

hereditv.  of  environment,  of  accident

forgetting  personal  responsibility  the  Ide* 
of  %ne  falllbe  man  asserting  his  le%i» 
right  to  anotier's  life  Is  most  repugnant. 
Supposing  cur  author  be  given  two  chil- 
•dren'^to  experiment  upon  One  is  the  son 
of  honest,  clean,  respectable  parents  he

he  does  not  even  know  who  his  parents

want  and  crime,  has  been  taught  to  steal 
since  his  earliest  Infancy  and  has  a  long 
line  of  crlmiial  antecedents  back  of  nlm. 
Mr  Smith  pi  ices  them  In  a  room  together 
and  also  conspicuously  places  some  money 
there  and  leives  them.  When  he  comes 
back  the  money  will,  of  course,  have  been

he  nevertheless  has  the  artistic  tempera- 
ment and  the  ability,  though  U  may  not 
have  been  cuKlvated,  is  still  dorniant. 
and  If  he  only  did  cultivate  those  natural 
qualities  he  probably  ^ould  attain  Ois-

draw  but  you  cannot  pound  art  into  him. 
and  he  will  rebel  and  get  out  of  the  whole 
thing  the  first  opportunity  Presented. 

Now  it  Is  just  so  with  crime.  Some 
criminal  propei.sities  or  faculties  are  evi- 
dent large  or  small.  In  every  subject. 
Th"e*y  maTloe  cuHlvate  or  toned  down  by 
education,  environment  and  the  Propcr  V 
directed  will  of  the  subject.  But  to  clalin 
that  each  one  of  us  is  flopped  down  heie 
upon  This  mundane  sphere  of  our«  wl  h  • 
clear  bfil  of  health  and  carte-blanche  to 
build  one's  own  character  and  fortune 
without  let  or  hindrance  or  Influence  is 
the  rankest  bosh. 

And  it  is  remarkable  how  very  little  at- 
tention is  paid  to  this  subject  bV  the  aver- 
age layman.  Most  of  us  have  KOtten  so 
that  we  do  know  when  we  have  a  fever 
and  can  stick  a  thermometer  under  our 
tongue  and  tell  the  doctor  when  he  comes 
that  at  such  an  hour  we  were  up  to  101'^ 
or  102.  But  character  is  a  closed  book  to 
Tno.st  of  us.  Perhaps  is  It  that  the  fakir 
"nd  charlatan  have  gulled  the  people  so 
long  with  the  feeling  of  bumps  and  read- 
ing of  palms,  "the  story  of  your  Hfe  and 
prospects  for  the  future  all  for  one  dollar, 
that  the  whole  thing  is  In  disrepute.  Yet 
are  there  not  quacks  in  medicine,  and 
freaks  In  the  pulpit  and  shysters  at  the 
bar-*  And  have  we  wiped  medlcin*.  the- 
ology and  the  law  from  off  our  books  on 
account  of  there  being  such? 

What  a  splendid  thing  It  Is  for  a  man  to 
know  the  dlsposlUon,  the  character,  the 
propensities,  the  faculties  of  his  chlW 
and  then  accommo&ate  the  education,  tho 
Influences  to  suit  that  particular  ctfse. 
Hundreds  of  doctors  have  given  years  to 
such  study  and  use  Us  results  In  their  own 
practice,  for  their  own  Informatloti.  but 
they  will  never  tell  you  so.  It  would  hurt 
them  professionally,  people  would  offer 
them  50  cents  to  feel  their  bumps,  they 
would  want  their  fortunes  told  as  well  as 
their  ailments. 

Would  that  Chanolne.  or  Dr.  Philips,  or 
Professor  Hutchinson,  or  some  other  well 
known  criminologist,  or  "character  read- 
er" could  be  induced  to  contribute  a  series 
of  papers  upon  this  subject,  something 
to  make  it  a  popular  science,  few  are 
more  beneficial  to  the  human  race.  This  is 
but  a  disconnected  protest  by  a  layman, 
the  merest  neophyte  In  th©  cult,  ag^nst

The   Short  Skirt    Promises  to  Stay      i 

Through  the  Coming  Season. 


Chic  Suits  Designed  for  |  Tlie  Japanese  Lounging 
Traveling.  Robes  and  Kimonas. 


Let  it  not  be  supposed  that  the  sum- 
mer season  advances  this  far  without 
stronB^  evidences  of  changes  in  fashion 
showing  themselves.  It  is  enough  to 
know  that  the  spring  opened  with  a 
mad  furore  for  every  kind  of  frill,  fur- 
below, and  gewgaw;  to  surmise  that  by 
mid-season  my  lady's  mood  would 
change  and  from  sheer  satiety  she  would 
■begin  to  show  a  leaning  toward  the 
other  extreme  and  begin  to  adopt  the 
trim.  neat,  and  somewhat  military 
styles. 

These  tendencies  are  to  be  seen  first 
in  her  costumes  for  visiting.  sjHirt  and 
traveling,  and  the  mid-summer  ad- 
ditions to  her  outfit  havt*  a  certain 
boastful  swagger  air  from  whicli  her 
earli^jr  investments  were  markedly  free. 

Her  traveling  gown,  which  f">r  many 
seasons  past  apju-ars  t<i  have  forgotten 
its  origin  of  dust-proof  simplicity  ahd 
has  >'.xtraodrinary  flunted  ornanunt- 
tations  of  so  elaborate  and  perishable 
a  character  as  to  show  a  wanton  disre- 
gard for  tradition  and  the  ravag^-s  of 
cinders  and  dirt,  is  now  beginning  to 
show  a  few  symptons  of  quietness  and 


panel  was  cut  in  the  same  piece  with  a 
yolte  which  came  down  upon  the  hip.s 
in  the  outline  of  paniers  and  curved  up 
at  the  iiack  leaving  a  space  in  which 
pleats  of  the  main  skirt  appeared,  ex- 
tending from  the  waist  band  to  the  floor. 
The  Fk!rl  was  entirely  pleated,  the 
pitats  which  joined  the  panel  in  front 
beins;  considerable  larger  than  those  at 
th-  back;  an  original  effect  being  oIj- 
tained  by  the  graduating  sizes  of  the 
pleats. 

The  bolero  Jacket  was  equally  original 
and  chic,  showing  the  same  curved  out- 
line as  the  yoke  of  the  skirt  with  its 
trimming  of  black  stitcheries  and  gilt 
braid.  .\s  the  bolero  curved  sharply 
from  the  neck  below  the  arms,  a  pleat- 
in.:^  of  the  Italian  silk  was  adroitly  at- 
tacheii  to  repeat  the  effect  of  the  skirt. 
The  pleating  fell  in  front  fnrni  the  neck 
in  two  large  folds  and  graduated  to  the 
\e:y  smallest  and  narrf)West  size  as  it 
joined  the  rounding  jacket  under  the 
arms,  showing  only  about  one  quarter 
of  an  in(h  in  d'-pth  below  the  line  of  tre 
bolero  in  the  l>ack.  The  jacket  was  cut 
somewhat  low  in  the  neck  and  not 
allowed  to  meet  in  front,  where  a  twist 
and  a   few  loops  of  gilt  braid  and  two 


of  any  kind. 

The  Jacket,  which  of  course,  was  of  the 
«ame  material  as  the  skirt,  quite  broke 
the  ranks  of  summer  jackets  by  taking 
another  form   than  the  bolero.    It   was 
extremely  smart  and  now,  having  bor- 
rowed  enough  of   the   bolero's   style   to 
gain  it  admittance,  and  yet  being  built 
altogether  on  the  principle  of  the  Rus- 
sian   blouse;    the   bolero   style   showing 
itself    merely    in    the    braiding,    which 
described  its  outline   in  front  and  also 
in  the  back,  w  here  the  lines  of  braiding 
extended    laterally       above    the    broad 
black  girdle,  where  the  slight  pouching 
above   the    belt   was    disguised    by    the 
braiding,    and    made    to    simulate    the 
lower  edge  of  the  bolero. 

The  little  peplum,  which  gave  a  jaunty 
capping  to  the  hips,  Wiis  circular  and 
without  fullness  save  in  the  center  ot 
the  back  where  the  addition  of  two 
little  pleats  gave  an  air  of  jauntiness. 
The  lining  of  the  little  blouse 
was  of  India  silk  in  a  some 
what  brighter  shade  of  green  which 
added  a  certain  freshness  and  coolness 
of  aspect  and  scarcely  any  additional 
weight  or  heat. 

It  is  worthy  or  remark  also  that  in 
both  of  these  now  traveling  gowns,  there 
was  a  perceptible  shortening  of  the 
skirt,  which  seemed  to  verify  the  pro- 
phecy the  short  skirt  is  the  coming 
mode. 

The  golf  and  outing  skirt  has  now 
reached  a  lino  that  is  moderate  and 
convient.  It  is  no  longer  short  enough 
to  create  surprise,  and  its  ankle  length 
proves  both  graceful  and  tree;  upon 
its  present  satisfactory  proportions,  the 
new  street  skirt  for  the  fall  is  to  be  re- 
modeled, but  this  does  not  mean  that 
the  long  skirts  will  disappear.  For  dress 
occasions  and  also  walking  and  street 
costumes  the  present  long  and  flaring 
skirts  promise  to  hold  their  own,  but  will 
not  appear  upon  the  street. 

Apropos  of  golf  skirts,  it  seems  as  if 
pique  and  ducks  have  had  their  day  and 
the  wide  popul  irity  which  they  enjoyed 
last  year  is  now  waning.  They  are  now 
thrust  in  the  background  by  skirts  of 
khaki  and  pongee,  the  latter  particularly 
are  strongly  in  evidence  this  season  and 
are   constantly   seen    on    the   K<»'f  links,

plainness.  and  is  learning  anew, 
something  of  the  wisdom  arr'  ■^^e,  riiy 
>>1   its  for*  mothers. 

Even  sime  the  fir.it  of  the  .~.,i-on  a 
decided  change  has  crept  in.  and  now 
the  suits  f'>r  traveling  are  comparative- 
ly simple  save  for  the  trim  and  all  popu- 
lar ornamentation  of  gilt  braid  and 
buttons,  which  express  the  military 
.spirit      th   •  rapidly    becoming    the 

rage. 

Dark  hliu  Italian  silk  with  a  dash  of 
gilt  braiding  and  a  few  gilt  buttons,  is 
the  mosst  recent  ideal  summer  traveling 
costume. 

This  Italian  silk  is  .n  slight  variation 
from  the  mohairs  and  siciliens,  which 
have  taken  such  a  chrong  hold  this  sum- 
mer, and  while  a  great  deal  more  soft 
in  texture  and  more  silky  and  lustrous 
in  appearance,  it  still  sheds  the  dust  as 
cleverly.  It  is  a  more  expensive  ma- 
terial. h'Hvever,  and  in  its  paler  sha<tes 
is  allowed  to  appear  at  dressy  affairs 
from  which  the  mohairs  and  sieilrd.  .s 
are  ruthlessly  ostracized.  In  daik  Mues. 
browns  and  stone  grays,  it  is  adini!  il-tv 
adapted  for  summer  traveling, 
and  is  light  and  cool. 

An  extremely  smart  little  suit  of  blue 
Italian  silk,  recently  fr"m  the  other  side, 
appeared  in  Tuzedo  not  long  ago  and 
iltar«genuinely  graceful  in  its  air  of 
brtikness  and  chic,  proving  also  em- 
inently appropriate  for  short  railroad 
journeys  and  days  of  shopping  in  town. 

The  skirt  showed  a  plain  straieht 
phnel  down  the  front,  which  was  border- 
ed in  heavy  stitcheries  of  black,  and 
outlined  at  its  outer  rim  with  two  rows 
ot  the  very  narrowest  gilt  braid.    The 


gilt  buttons  on  each  side  served  as  a 
fastening. 

The  blouse  worn  with  the  suit  was  of 
scarl?t.  of  a  very  gay  shade,  which 
showed  s«»  scantly  between  the  Imlero 
fi'onts  as  to  lose  all  suspicion  of  bold- 
ness. The  eollar  of  the  blouse  had  a 
large  white  l.»and  of  stitched  pique  at  its 
top  and  the  f<dds  of  thi.s  soft  red  silk 
looked  very  smart  between  the  pleated 
fr(mts  of  the  jacket. 

The  cuffs  of  the  bolero  were  another 
feature  tif  the  present  styles.  Iieing 
somewhat  large  and  turned  back  from 
the  wrist.  They  were  ctirved  to  give  a 
small  imitation  of  the  outline  of  the 
jacket  and  short  yoke,  trimmed  with 
the  stitcheries  and  gilt  braid  in  the 
same  fashion,  and  having  a  tiny  border 
of  the  pleating. 

Another  travelin.g  gown,  also  designed 
for  the  purpose  of  short  railroad  trips 
and  a  day  of  shopping  and  kn"eking 
■fli'oin  the  citv.  was  devised  witii  an 
idea  of  coolness  and  comfoit.  It  was  a 
gown  of  grayish  green  mohair  v>  ith 
braid  trimmings  a  la  militaire  of  mar- 
rov.  and  .vide  braid.  The  skirt  was  cut 
on  the  seven  gored  pattern,  with  gores 
flaring  to  considerable  width  at  the 
bottom,  and  with  lines  of  the  v.hite 
braid  above  the  hem,  the  narro\vest 
braid  covering  each  seam  in  verti(»»l 
lines.  The  skirt  was  unlined.  extremely 
light,  and  could  be  worn  indifferently 
with  an  underskirt  of  silk  or  lingerie. 

The  blouse  worn  with  this  skirt  was 
of  green  washable  silk  with  white  cord 
cross-barring.s.  and  made  extremely  full 
in  front,  but  without  tucks  or  trimmings 


verandas,  and  the  beach.  Their  extreme 
lightness  and  immunity  from  Starch 
makes  them  acceptable  both  for  s'-aside 
and  mountain  resorts.  For  golf  their 
lack  of  crispness  and  consistency  as  well 
as  their  thinness,  ner'essitates  pettieoats 
and  imderskirts  of  silk  or  lingerie  w  hieh 
is  considered  a  trifle  unsportetaonoinn 
but  neveitheless  it  is  the  pro)>-r  .skirl 
for  golf,  and  its  perfect  lightness  and 
coolness  mak^  it  irresistable  f-ir-  mid- 
summer wear. 

Nearly  all  of  the  new  gowns  show 
decidedly  larger  sleeves,  and  l>y  the  time 
fall  appears  v.'e  expect  to  leturn  to  our 
mutton  legs.  Large  tuined  backed  cuffs 
are  already  making  their  appearance.

important  accessory  of  an  elaborate 
lace,  and  these  pretty  trifle;?,  often  im-

Phlladelidiia.  Jul>  26.— (Sjiecial  to  The 
Herald.) — The  <|ue.-;iions  involved  in  the 
Chine.^:e  situation  at  the  present  moment 
are  extremely  complex,  because  we  do 
not  known  facts  upon  v.-hich  to  bas-e  any 
safe  theory  or  judgment.  China  has 
liicn  so  wofully  misused  Ity  European 
natioirs  that  it  is  no  wonder  at  last  th'.' 
worm  has  turned,  and  the  slumbering 
gia!it  has  a\\ak'!ie«i  from  hi.-  l;>ng  letii- 
ais\ . 

To  what  extent  ihe  Chinese  govern- 
ment has  been  resfonsible  for  the  suji- 
pn.'^ed  Pekin  massacre  cannot  yet  be  de- 
termined, but  thfre  ean  he  no  doubt  th.it 
the  a. Is  of  aggress i<>n  perpetrated  by 
Ilussia.  Cermany  a  id  Britain  have  ha.l 
much  to  do  v.ith  arousing  h.Ttred  against 
all  fort'ignevs.  beea  ise  they  are  known 
tr  have  a  mutual  sympathy  fr>r  eath 
other,  and  are  believed  in  the  Chinese 
heart  to  be  jilannin,?  together  nothing 
but  a  dismembermt  nt  of  the  einjiirc. 

If  tho  ministers  and  othei:^  in  (he 
r^ekin  legations  were  holding  out  there, 
ei  i'trary  to  the  req  jtrst  of  Chin,  .so  ofli- 
.  ials  that  Ihey  leave  for  a  jdace  of  safety 
in  order  to  faeiliiale  tla-  entrsncf-  of  a 
foreign  force,  were  ihey  not  eoininitting 
an  act  of  ;:ggression  for  which  tJiey  had 
ti    |iay  the  terrible  p^»nally? 

Again,  by  what  right  did  the  I<'U'o- 
pt.in  troops  take  the  initiative  in  al- 
ta'king  the  Chine.=f.  even  if  the  China-, 
men  vero  reinforc  ng  their  own  forts 
and  mining  the  rivers? 

Surely  a  people  hf;s  a  right  to  (]o  as  it 
thinks  fit  for  its  own  d'='fense.  provided 
it  looks  after  the  iafety  of  foi  jigners. 
mil  if  the  ministers  did  refuse  to  ip.r.e 
Pekin,  how  could  the  f^iiinese  »prnteet

The  Chinese  people  have  been  dread- 
ing the  results  of  the  desiirns  of  eortain 
nation?  to  encrriach  m  their  territory  for 
some  time  past,  and  their  subtle  Orien- 
tal minds  have  not  failed  to  grasp  obvi- 
ous prob.ihilities.  The  dowager  cmprt  ss 
for  some  time  has  been  expecting  a  war 
with  the  powers,  and  taking  steps  t> 
nreparo  for  it.  A  few  months  ago.  in  n 
manifesto  which  has  come  to  light,  she 
expressed  herself  a."-  folUiws: 

"Our  empire  now  is  laboring  und.^v 
rei't  dilTi.'ulties.  wilch  are  be.-'omiog 
daily  mi  re  serious.  The  various  powers 
oast  on  us  looks  of  titrer-like  vorarity, 
hustling  each  other  n  their  endeavors  to 
t)o  the  first  to  seize  our  irinprmo.<'t  terri- 
tories. They  think  that  China,  having 
neither  money  nor  troops,  would  nevpr 
venture  to  go  to  war  with  them." 

Does  it  not  anpear  reasonablp  that 
with  the  menacing  attitude  of  foreigners 
to.vards  China  the  <^hinese  should  havv"> 
developed  a  eorresponding  hatred  to- 
ward.«  them,  starlirg  as  such  patriotic 
feelings  usually  do  among  the  people  of 
the  lower  classes,  and  taking  ae<ive 
sh.ipe  in  th*»  outraet'.'?  of  the  Boxers? 

Tf  hundrt'ds  of  Americans  h.^ve  he»-n 
murdered  iiv  Prin.""^  Tuan's  troops  in 
Pekin.  it  will  scarcely  he  r-'ssible  for  us 
to  avoid  sending  troop:*  to  form  ii.irt  of 
ai  avenging  column,  whose  nbj<-it  will 
1-K?  to  punish  the  bloodthirsty  dcr-.Tt.  but 
we  must  U'-t  ^tt*"mrt  anv  territorij.l  a^- 
ciession.  It  is  a  fact  that  th-:'  numb':T 
oT  "srh'tec  who  mav  have  «uiTered  death 
at  the  h.inds  of  the  Chines^  up  to  the 
present  timr>  is  very  much  !«»«.=■  than  th-> 
number  of  Chinese  who  hive  suffered 
death  at  the  hands  of  the  whites. 

The  ideals  of  the  Chinese  are  entirely 
(Jifferent  from  our  own.    Altfuism  is  the 


result?  Why 
armies  would 
inslantl.v.  au'l 
have  received 


Keynote  of  the  Chinaman'.-:  life,  whilst 
that  of  ours  is  malerialisni.  For  eeii- 
turies  this  strange  jieople  b  is  bc»>n  ad- 
vanced to  a  point  in  mo!:ilj  which  our 
wisest  and  best  men  are  slrivitig  to  de- 
vcloii  in  the  Western  mind.  To  ;;ii<  and 
the  Celestial  ruie.s,  until  recently  .il- 
ways  having  deprecated  armame.it  and 
conlli:t  with  foieign  peojples.  In  order 
to  avoid  this  tliey  have  allowed  them- 
.>-:elves  to  be  kiekerl  around  by  JOuropcan.s 
and  insulted  on  their  very  doorsteps. 

They  have  permitted  our  missionari<-s 
to  go  thither  and  insult  their  gods,  our 
tinders  to  rob  and  cheat  them,  and  h.ivt* 
submitted  to  all  the  impositions  which  a 
meek  and  inotfensive  people  easily  may 
suffer  from  those  whoss  only  real  idol  is 
the  god  of  greed.  I  am  torry  to  say  that 
the  missionaries  are  resiionsible  for  any 
disasteri!  which  may  have  befallen  them 
during  the  present  outbreak. 

"What  you  do  not  wish  done  to  your- 
self do  not  do  to  others"  is  the  golden 
rule  of  Confucius,  as  it  is  of  Christ.  l>ut 
ihe  missionaries  no  more  th;m  others 
there  have  followed  it.  They  have 
sr."ered  at  the  Chinese  customH  and  re- 
\iie;l  their  gotls.  Not  all  missionaries 
have  done  this,  but  enough  to  cowr  the 
whole  class  v.ith  Ihi  odium  whi<di  ;-ii"!i 
act  i. in  engenders. 

Another  false  impression  prevails  as  lo 
the  abilities  <d"  the  Chin<  .se.  They  are 
by  no  menus  a  nal'on  of  fooly.  and  are 
the  i|uickest  learners  in  the  world.  There 
is  an  iiniiression  that  b.v  «-reating  an 
'  pri)  door  in  China  there  would  exist 
such  markets  there  in  a  few  years  for  all  , 
onr  manufactured  products  tb.it  eviM-y 
mill  in  Christendom  would  be  runnin.g. 
The  greater  probability  is  thai  m  a  few 
years  the  tables  would  be  tiirne<l  on  U.=. 
a.s  have  tlie  guns,  and  that  China  would 
lie  manufa'turing  mf>.<t  "d  the  goods  for 
our  use.  The  open  doir  would  swin;: 
iiitvvard  in.-tead  of  inward,  for  the  mere 
idea  of  Kuropeaa  or  Amrri<  nn  workmen 
rompeting  in  pri^r  with  Chmese  lali-'^r  is 
far<-ical  in  the  extreme. 

l/ook  at  il  whichever  way  w^  will,  we 
have  hren  the  aggressors  in  China,  and 
should  now  call  a  hall.

Washington.  July  28.— (Special  to  The

Democratic  national  congressional  com-

Bext  house  will  be  Democratic,  whether 
or  not  Br>an  and  Stevenson  are  elected. 
However,  he  is  eontiJlent  that  the  Demo-

The  next  hiiuse  of  representatives  will 
be  omposed  of  257  members.  To  secure

Declaration  of  Independence.     It  would 
not   vote   immense  subsidies   for  a   few- 
shipowners,  and  it  would  not  go  hand  in

restraints  upon  the  president  whenever 
he  manifested  a  disposition  to  get  away 
from  the  principles  of  the  American  De-

The  Baltimore  Sun  in  an  editorial  says 
that  the  Ru.ssian  thistle  has  heretofore 
been  regarded  as  an  unmitigated  nuis- 
ance bv  farmers.     It  appears,  however, 
from  tile  renorts  of  several  experiment 
stations  that  it  naay  be  made  to  serve  a.-5 
r  rage  seed  when  nothing  better  offers. 
The  Minnesota  station  has  analyzed  the 
plants   in    various      stages    of     growth. 
When  voung,   says  one  of  the  station  s 
bulletins,  "the  thistle  is  claimed  to  have 
a  high  food  value,  especially  for  sheep. 
The  chemical  analysis  shows  a  large  per- 
centage of  ash  material,  which  is  a  ser- 
ious   objection    to    its    use    as    a    fodder 
on  account  of  the  alkaline  nature 
material  present.     One  favorable 
point  is  in   the  large  amount  of  nitro- 
genous matter,  being  as  much  as  there 
i«    in    clover   or    rape.     Before    the    de- 
velopment   of   the    thorns    there    is    not 
much  fiber,  and  at  this  time  the  p^ant  is 
more  valuable  as  food  tJian  when  ma- 
ture "    The  Colorado  experiment  station 
has  collected  from  Western  stock  owners 
considerable   testimony  .m    the  sutoject 
and  much  of  it  is  favorable  to  the  use  of 
the  thistle  for  cattle   feed.   .J>amuel   P. 
Shaw,  of  Lamborn.  Ky..  considers  thu-tb. 
hav  good  feed  when  cut  before  the  thorns 
haVden.    Leo  Thoman   of  Colorado    win- 
tered part  of  his  cattle  during  1S99-K.00 
on  Russian  thistle  hay  and  found  they 
'    fully    as    well    as    those   fed    millet.

patiently when  they  read  the  following, 
but  any  sufferer  in  Duluth  who  has

ihi<<    jiaper   also  .-ays   th.\t   disease   is 
cutting  a  deadly  swath  among  American 
troops  in  foreign  climes.    The  bullet  has 
be-'n  largely  succeeded  by  surer  agencies 
of  death' in  the  shape  of  tro:>lcai  fevers. 
■  dding   each  day    to   the   percentage  of 
f itaiitie.*.     The  casualty  list  caoled   al- 
most dally  by  Gen.  MacArthur  at  Man- 
illa contains  an  average  of  twentv-fi%'. 
victims,  mostly  to  the  diseases  :oeculiar 
to  the  climate.    It  is  even  hinted  that  tne 
.Iread  bubonic  plague  has  made  us  ap- 
pearance  among    the    American    troops 
there,  but  if  this  be  so.  it  is  eff'-ctuab 
concealed  in  the  death  reports.     If  those 
in  authority  in  the  Philippines  were  so 
disposed  they  could  readily  hide  the  ex- 
istence of  the  plague  by  ascribing  deaths 
to  other  causes,  and  it  is  very  doubtful 
v.h-=ther   the   real   facts  ever   would    be 
known   unless  the  disease  should  as.sume 
epi.leniic  form  and  get  beyond  control. 
It  i«  recalled  that  two  years  ago.  when 
the  American  soldiers  were  stricken  wilii 
yei'ow  fever  in  Cuba,  the  true  state  of 
affairs   was   not    known    here    for    some 
time   after    t^oe    beginning   of    the    out- 
break,   -^-hether  the  surgeons  were  un- 
familiar with  the  symptoms  of  the  fever, 
or  whether  the  actual   conditions   were 
suppresseti  to  avoid  alarm  and  an  outcry 
at  home,  has  never  been  definitely  sct- 

t'ed 

^It'is  now  admitted  that  the  disease  has 
reappe.ired  among  the  •"army  of  occupa- 
tion" in  Cuba,  and  that  it  is  devel.  ion:: 
Willi  such  ranidity  that  military  oflicers 
ire  in  seri'^us  apprehension.  F*"ver  is 
'kn->%vn  to  have  existed  in  the  various 
caiTiMs  ff^r  some  months,  but  t'-.at  it  is

i-^cle  placed  before  it  i.<;  one  of  the 
trongest  pleas  for  the  speed.v  removal  of 
troops  to  more  healthful  quarters. 
I  What  with  rumors  of  bubonic  riague 
i  in  the  Philippiu'^  and  yellow  fevn-  a.  ui-

The  iTieeting  of  the  Federated  Trades' 
asseml)ly  last  evening  was  a  reminder 
or  days,  or  rather  nights,  gone  l>y. 
Within  the  past  few  weeks  many  for- 
mer dtlcsates  to  the  assembly  who  have 
been  out  of  active  service  for  a  year  or 
two.  have  been  retunied  by  their 
unions.  Last  night  the  hall  was  sultry, 
the  proceedings  interesting,  and  some  of 
the  debate  was  hot— just  like  it  used  to 
be. 

The  new  officers  took  charge  and 
business  moved  along  like  the  proverbial 
clock  work.  The  propo.sed  DalKir  day 
picnic  furnished  the  topic  for  most  oi 
the  discussion.  Several  of  the  cldegati  s 
did  not  caro  to  have  it  held  at  Fond  du 
Lac,  while  the  committee  having  the 
ariangemeiits  in  charge  intimated  that 
Fond  du  Lac  was  the  Ijest  place  that 
could  be  selected.  The  assembly  voted 
to  give  the  committee  full  power,  in  se-

SECUUR  SHOTSAT  THE  PULPIT. 

Boston  Transcript:  There  will  be  plenty 
of  work  to  be  done  by  those  who  are 
called  to  be  raissiomiries  even  If  China  re- 
mains shut  to  them  for  a  century. 

Buffalo  Express:  The  election  at  the  re- 
cent general  conference  of  the  Methodist 
church  of  a  .negro  as  chief  secretary  of 
the  Freedmen's  Aid  and  Southern  Edu- 
sation  society  has  met  with  disfavor  in 
some  quarters  and  one  officer  of  the  asso- 
ciation has  refused  to  serve  under  him  and 
resigned.  This  is  an  interesting  display 
of  race  feeling. 

Philadelphia  North  American:  The  Rev. 
Charles  M.  Sheldon,  whose  sensational 
failure  as  a  newspaper  editor  last  spring 
is  already  almost  forgotten,  disappointed 
the  Christian  Endeavor  convention  in 
London  by  the  platitudinous  character  of 
his  discourse.  The  reverend  gentleman, 
like  many  other  good  people,  seems  to 
be  one  of  those  whose  forte  lies  in  work- 
ing and  not  in  talking  and  apparently 
also  it  would  add  to  his  good  fame,  as  it 
certainlv  would  to  the  comfort  of  the  rest 
of  the  world,  if  he  would  confine  himself 
to  deed.s  and  let  others  do  the  talking. 

Kansas  City  Star:  The  word  comes 
from  Rockford,  111.,  that  Jacob  Schwein- 
furth  the  self-styled  messiah,  has  re- 
nounced the  faith  and  will  leave  the 
•heaven"  at  once.  This  means,  probably, 
that  he  has  played  the  game  for  all  he 
can  get  out  of  it  and  that  he  can  find  no 
more  followers  to  work.  There  have  been, 
in  all  ages  of  the  world,  religious  pretend- 
ers and  imposters.  but  as  a  monstrous  an  1 
inconveivable  fraud  Schweinfurth  appears 
to  take  the  lead.  His  success  make.i  ii 
absolutelv  impossible  to  fix  any  limit  to 
human  credulity  or  to  the  criminal  ef- 
frontery of  spiirious  .ond  self-auolnted 
prophets. 

TYPICAL  CRIMINALS. 


And  other  paitiful  and  neriotu  ailments  whkh 
so  many  mothers  suffer,  can  be  avoided  bj 
the  use  of  "Mother's  Friknd."  Thit 
remedy  is  a  God-send  to  women,  because  it 
carries'  them  through  their  most  critical 
ordeal  with  perfect  safety  and  no  pain      No 

woman  who  uses  "Mother's  Frihnd"  need  fear  the  suffering  apd  danger  of 

child-birth  — for  it  robs  this  ordeal  of  iU 

horror  and  insures  ^fety  to  mother  and  child.

Its  assailment  and  relegation  to  mythdom 
bv  the  Rev.  S.   G.  Smith. 

He  found  anomalies  in  his  committee. 
What  wishy-washy  specimens  they  would 
have  been  had  they  not  possessed  anoma- 
lies? The  normal  human  being  is  a  very 
ordinarv  fellow,  full  of  contradictions  and 
containing,  every  one  of  him,  about  the 
same  total  amount  of  faculties  as  the  next 
one.  The  moment  one  Ijecomes  a  genius 
and  shows  wonderful  development  of  aio' 
one  facultv  it  is  at  the  expense  of  hl.s 
other  faculties.  It  is  like  wealth,  its  con- 
centration in  the  hands  of  one  or  of  a  few- 
is  always  at  the  expense  of  the  others  of 
the  community,  there  is  always  about  so 
much  and  it  must  go  all  around.  A  great 
orator  is  usually  deficient  In  many  other 
faculties,  awav  below  the  normal.  An  ex- 
ceedinglv  strong  man  is  seldom  possessed 
of  muchbrain.  ditto  with  a  very  great  mu- 
sician. And  the  higher  any  one  faculty 
is  developed  or  cultivated  or  overworked 
above  the  normal,  the  more  dangerously 
near  the  line  docs  that  man  approach. 
He  Is  apt  to  kill  himself  or  he  dies  early— 
in  a  mad  house! 

Give  us  a  revival  of  practical  faith  In 
the  human  soul  and  its  caiiacity  if  vou 
wish,  hut  give  us  also  a  knowledge  of  the 
limitations  of  the  psvchical  in  us,  how  it 
is  infiuenced  by  the  physical,  then  give  us 
the  proper  food,  the  proper  environment 
and  the  right  kind  of  parents  and  grand- 
parents and  there  need  be  no  fear— al- 
though the  administration  of  law  and  the 
theorv  of  punishment  may  be  radically 
affected— that  society  will  suffer  in  the 
least  or  that  the  wreck  of  all  things  is  im- 
pending. F.  W.  FTTZPATRICK.

I  suppose  there  doesn't  live  a  girl  wh  1 
hasn't  at  one  time  or  other  in  her  life 
been  possessed  of  a  desire  to  be  Bohem- 
ian.    It's  a  frame  of  mind  that  usuallv 
pets  in  during:  the  later  'teens  or  early 
20s,  and  then  there's  a  deal  of  sneering 
at    conventionality,    and    railing    at    the 
ridiculous  rules  of   society,   and   sayins 
jirofjundly        cynical        things        about 
dear       old       Mrs.    Grundy.         T       have 
a      girl      friend    who      has      just    been 
having       a        most        virulent       atta.^k 
cf  that  sort  of  thing,  says  a  writer  in 
the   Washington   Post.        She   caugfit   it 
from    some  art   students   she   had   been 
gi-eat  chums  with,  and  the  things  which 
she  has   been   saying  would    turn   your 
hair  white  to  hear.     S?ie  has  learned  t  ■ 
smoke  cigarettes  and  to  flip  the  tip  of  a 
beer   stein   open   by  hitting  it    in   somr 
mysterious  way  on  ton.     She  takes  in  a 
lot  of  ragged-looking  magazines,  and  she 
Ji.as  taken  to  doing  her  hair  in   a  w^ld, 
untidv,  but  unmistakably  artistic  fash- 
ion.    Recently,  when  she  began  to  rebel 
at  the  chaperone  habit,  her  mother  de- 
cided that  things  had  gone  far  enous'  . 
but  being  a  woman  wise  in  her  day  and 
generation,  she  lay  low  and  said  nothin-.; 
till    one    day    Francine— it    used    to    be 
Frances — announced     that    Miss    "Wild- 
ways,  tftie  artist,  was  coming  to  dinner. 

"And  for  goodness'  sake,  mother,"  said 
she,  'let's  try  to  get  away  from  the 
deadly  commonplaces  of  existence.  Miss 
Wildways  simply  can't  endure  conven- 
tionality. Let's  not  be  bana'.  I  want 
things  to  be  a  little  out  of  the  ordinary, 
for  she'll  be  so  dreadfully  bored  if  they 
are  not."' 

Well,  the  dav  and  Miss  Wildways 
came.  Mother  was  not  dressed  to  receive 
her  when  she  arrived,  but  mother  didn't 
let  that  St  It)  her.  She  ran  downstairs 
in  a  kimono  and  greeted  the  guest  cor- 
dially. 

"Don't  mind  mv  dress,  my  dear,'  sa.d 
fshp.  "This  is  Liberty  hall  and  we  all  do 
as  we  please.  It  was  really  to.i  much  <^X

jacket.  He  didn't  apologize  for  either, 
hut  he  was  a.«  jovial  as  jivial  could  be. 
.\\  dinner  he  calmly  laid  off  the  jacket 
when  h-^-  rose  to  carve  the  roa.^t.  explain- 
ing lo  Miss  Wildways  that  hp  believed  in 
being  comfortable  instead  of  conven- 
tional. Mother  echoed  the  sentiment, 
and,  taking  out  a  package  of  cigarettes, 
almost  f-trced  one  <in  the  guest.  Then 
she  herself,  Francine's  elegant,  conven- 
tional mother,  lit  one  and  lay  back  in  her 
chair,  puffing  it  serenely,  while  she  sent 
brother  Will  out  for  a  bucket  of  beer. 
It  was  the  most  agonizing  dinner  poor 
Francine  ever  lived  through,  but  it  was 
unconventional  and  as  far  removed  from 
the  commonplace  a.s  anytfiinir  you  can 
imagine. 

It  v.as  only  a  day  afterward  that  Fran- 
cine began  to  pay  some  visits  she  had 
.^.corned  to  make  for  months,  and  sbe 
asked  her  mother  to  go  with  her.  She 
had  scarcely  stirred  out.  in  fact,  without 
maternal  chaperonage  since  that  awful 
day,  and  she  hasn't  said  Bohemian  once. 
Francine  has  learned  a  lesson  that  she 
will  not  soon  forget. 

A  CENTT'RY'S  GROWTH. 
There  were  but  5,300.000  people  In 
America  when  this  century  opened, 
France  had  five  times  as  many  oeoDle; 
Germany,  and  even  Austria,  had  four 
times  America's  population:  Italy  had 
three  time  sas  many,  and  so  had  Great 
Britain.  E^^en  Spain  had  double  our 
number  of  neople.  and  little  Portugal 
wa.q  almost  our  rival  in  numbers,  says 
the  New  York  Post.  We  have  more 
people  now  than  any  European  nation 
except  Russia,  which  alone  leads  us.

The  brilliant  list  of  American  victories 
in  the  international  games  at  Paris  was 
cut  short  at  the  close  of  the  program  by 
the  Frenchmen  handicapping  the 
Americans  so  heavily  that  the  whole 
thing  resembled  a  big  burlesque  on 
pure,  honest,  amateur  athletics.  Then 
the  gay  Parisian  insisted  on  breaking 
their  agreement  allowing  the  Ameri- 
cans to  run  off  Sunday's  games  on  Mon- 
day. Frank  Ellis,  of  Pennsylvania,  in 
speaking  of  this,  said: 

"Nothing  shows  quite  so  conclusively 
that  the  French  committee  Intended  to 
deceive  the  Americans.  Until  two 
weeks  ago  they  had  decided  to  hold  the 
championship  games  on  Saturday,  but 
the  government's  annountement  that  it 

would  hold  the  great  military  review  in 
the  Bois  de  Boulogne  on  the  same  day, 
close  to  the  aihletic  grounds,  seemed  to 
the  committee  to  make  it  impossible  to 
hold  the  games  at  the  same  time. 

"This  wuuld  not  have  deterred  us  in 
America,  but  from  many  thing*  I  hive 
observed  since  1  have  been  here  I  am 
convinced  that  the  French  mind  does 
not  work  in  the  same  \vf;y  as  the  ordin- 
ary American  intellect.  Had  the  Ameri- 
can managers  been  promptly  notified 
of  the  change  so  they  could  have  i>r"- 
tested  the  result  might  have  been  differ- 
ent. The  American  athletes,  however, 
had  no  knowledge  of  thi.s  until  the 
teams  arrived  in  Paris  a  few  days  be- 
fore the  games.  Then  the  French  com- 
mittee had  advertised  the  games  very 
fully  for  Sunday,  and  asserted  that  they 
dared  not  disaptoint  the  public.  There- 
upon a  conference  was  arranged  betweH»n 
the  two  committees.  i>ut  as  neither  could 
speak  the  other  language  an  interpreter 
was  needed. 

"It  soon  became  quite  evident  that  the 
French  committee  felt  it  an  in^nllt  that 
the  Americans  should  try  to  dictate 
when  the  events  should  lie  held.  The 
Americans,  on  the  other  hand,  let  the 
French  clearly  understand  that  they 
had  been   buncoed  into  bringing  leims 

to  France.

champion.  Joe  Bernstein  and  Oscar 
Gardner  have  been  through  the  mill,  and 
both  are  entitled  to  some  consideration, 
Bernstein  for  staying  in  the  ring  with 
Terry  for  twenty-five  rounds,  Gardner 
because  he  floored  the  chamjlon. 

Broad  is  the  most  likely  of  the  feather- 
weights, and  has  repeatedly  announced 
his  desire  to  meet  the  champion.  He 
would  require  considerable  beating,  and 
would  unquestionably  get  it. 

Martin  Flaherty,  a  126-pounder,  also 
talks  of  a  match  with  Terry.  If  wise, 
Martin  will  hold  aloof.  It  can  be  readily 
seen  that  the  field  of  featherweights  Is 
very  limited,  and  would  hardly  afford 
Terry  good  exercise. 

Should  the  cCiaraplon  be  compelled  to 
advance  a  class,  he  would  encounter 
promising  material  in  O'Brien,  McFad- 
den,  Gans,  Hawkins  and  "Spike"  Sulli- 
van. Any  one  of  these  men  would  give 
Terry  a  good  battle,  but  unless  he  could 
go  into  the  ring  on  somewhere  nearly 
even  terms  as  to  weight,  he  would  be 
foolish  to  take  them  on.  There  is  con- 
siderable mystery  as  to  Terry's  weight. 
No  one  but  he  and  has  handlers  know 
definitely  what  he  weighs.  Manager 
Harris  says  the  champion  weighed  121 
pounds  when  he  stepped  into  the  ring  Ij 
meet  Erne.  It  seems  Incredible  he  should 
have  given  seven  pounds  and  sj  terrible 
a  beatmg  to  a  man  like  Erne.  If  the 
little  fellow  really  did  weigh  but  121 
pounds  he  should  Ignore  the  lightweight'-, 
till  he  gets  heavier. 

McGovern  Is  Investing  his  money  In 
real  estate  in  Brooklyn.  He  will  prob- 
ably be  one  of  the  few  great  pugilists 
who  retire  with  plenty  to  live  on.  Take 
George  Dixon,  who  has  won  thousands 
and  thousands  of  dollars.  He  Is  still 
fighting  to  earn  a  few  shekels  here  and 
there.  He  cannot  get  the  money  he  did 
in  his  championsliln  days  and  will  al- 
ways be  a  poor  man.  Terry's  financial 
affairs  are  an  interesting  proposition. 
He  has  earned  more  mimey  for  a  cerlin 
amount  «>f  actual  work  than  any  man  in 
the  I'nlted  States  this  year,  barring 
trade  speculators.  Beginning  with  his 
1  >n2  run  of  quick  knockouts  last  Julv 
and  counting  the  number  of  minutes  he 
has  been  actually  in  the  ring  fighting, 
v  ju  get  a  surprising  result.  He  disposed 
of  Johnny  Ritchie  in  three  rounds.  Call 
it  nine  minutes,  omiting  the  rests  be- 
tween rounds.  Pedlar  Palmer  stayed 
less  than  a  round.  Then  there  Is  one  for 
Billy  Rotchford.  one  for  Patsey  Haley, 
three  for  Billy  Smith,  two  for  Eddie 
Sjirague,  eight  for  Ge  .rge  Dixon,  five  fer 
Eddie  Santry,  three  for  Oscar  Gardner 
and  so  on  down  the  line.  Including  Harry 
Forbes,  Tommy  White,  Frank  Erne  and 
men  of  lesser  fame.  At  three  minutes 
p^r  round,  his  fighting  time  for  all  bat- 
tles within  the  last  year  is  not  over  one 
hour  and  thirty  minutes.  An  Eastern 
writer  has  figured  that  Terry's  earnings 
within  the  year  are  $86,000.  This  is  earn- 
ing money  at  the  rate  of  $r>6,000  an  h  )ur. 
His  next  year  of  fighting  is  not  likely  to 
be  so  :>rosDerous.  He  will  have  to  wait 
for  opoonents  to  grow  up.  Add  to  his 
fighting  his  theatrical  engagements,  and 
Terry  has  a  future  that  no  grandson  of 

Tinnerary  ever  dreamed  of.

make  him  fight  all  over  again  for  that 
"ten  thousand  dollar  diamond  studded 
championship  belt"  whic-h  he  got  in  Bos- 
ton thirteen  years  ago.  The  ex-champi.-n 
had  a  hard  ene.ugh  tussle  ta  get  the  bell 
in  the  first  place,  and  now  to  have  to  go 
a'l  over  the  contest,  and  In  the  courts, 
t.xj,  where  a  judge  is  the  referee,  and 
cannot  be  done  up  without  danger  of  in-

A  suit  out  of  the  ordinary  has  recently 
been  brought  in  the  Omaha  district 
eourt,  which,  if  won  bv  the  plaintiff,  will 
atTect  all  losing  clubs.  A  "rooter"  at- 
tended a  game  In  the  Western  city,  and 
he  claims  that  the  team  played  so  poorly 
that  he  was  forced  to  leave  before  ttie 
ninth  inning.  He  therefore  sues  for  th-; 
aO  cents  which  he  paid  for  admittance

cents  for  the  time  spent  there.  Th-?

Gus  Ruhlln,  the  Akron  giant,  and  Bob 
Fltzsimmons  are  training  like  beavers 
for  their  25-round  bout,  which  takes 
place  at  the  Twentieth  Century  Athletic 
club  Aug.  10.  Ruhlin  weighs  19'.  pounds 
at  present,  while  "Fltz"  tips  the  scale.-- 
at  172  pounds.  This  Is  the  weight  at 
which  they  Intend  to  fight.  Fltzsimmons 
is  working  at  Bergen  Beach. 

Although  fighting  in  New  York  has 
i-ix  weeks  t3  run  i>efore  the  Lewis  anli- 
bexinsr  law  goes  into  effect,  several  Im- 
portant fistic  events  will  be  decided  in 
the  meantime.  The  Fltzslmmons-Ruh- 
Hn  bout,  scheduled  for  Aug.  10,  and  the 
Fitzsimmons-Sharkey  go.  for  Aug.  25, 
are  fixtures,  and  negotiations  are  going 
en   for  bouts  between  the  lighter  men. 

Acordlns  to  Jim  Corbett,  the  sports 
will  not  have  the  pleasure  of  seeing  him 
face  "Kid"  McCoy  in  the  ring.  The  ex- 
champion  says  he  has  not  given  the 
match  a  thought,  as  he  intends  to  have 
another  go  with  Champion  Jeffries  be- 
fore he  will  agree  to  meet  anvone  else. 


By  the  way,  what  did  Jim  Jeffries  mean 
when  he  said  the  day  after  he  beat  Cor- 
bett that  he  would  fight  the  latter  again 
in  two  weeks,  and  all  the  other  heavy- 
weights in  quick  succession?  He  now 
finds  that  his  arm  is  so  lame  that  he 
will  not  be  able  to  fight  during  the  life 
of  the  Horton  law.  It  is.  of  course, 
impossible  that  timidity  actuates  Mr. 
Jeffries,  and  therefore  it  would  be  In- 
teresting to  know  exactly  what  he 
meant   by  his  original   assertion.

Henry  Truelsen  wants  to  go  to  con- 
gress. That  fact  Is  established  beyond 
the  peradventure  of  a  doubt,  as  the 
lawyers  have  it.  He  is  making  an 
active  canvass  for  support  in  his  am- 
bition and  will  be  in  the  field  for  the 
nomination  as  strong  as  he  can  get 
there.  That  he  is  attracting  a  con- 
siderable number  of  Democrats  to  his 
support  there  is  no  doubt.  T.  T.  Hud- 
son is  apparently  not  mixing  in  the  can- 
vass thus  for  but  a  number  of  the 
men  who  are  generally  closely  identi- 
fied with  him  in  political  work  are  talk- 
ing Truelsen  pretty  strong.  This  has 
given  rise  to  the  statement  that  "the 
Hudson  crowd  is  behind  Truelsen." 
Whether  true  or  not  the  cry  will  un- 
doubtedly be  freely  used. 

Senator  Charles  O.  Baldwin  has  not 
yet  been  prevailed  upon  to  say  that  he 
will  be  a  candidate.  There  Is  little 
doubt  that  the  situation  is  a  tempting 
one  to  Mr.  Baldwin.  He  is  young  and 
naturally  ambitious,  in  so  close  a  dis- 
trict his  chances  of  election  are  first 
class,  and  the  allurement  is  a  strong 
one.  It  is  undoubtedly  business  con- 
siderations that  deter  him  from  aii- 
nouncing  his  willingness  to  be  a  candi- 
date. His  friends  hope  that  he  will 
see  his  way  clear  to  become  the  candi- 
date and  unless  positively  forbidden  by 
him,  they  will  be  in  the  field  for  him 
and  will  endeavor  to  have  him  made  the 
choice  of  the  convention  which  meets  at 

Aitkin  September  5.

The  News  Tribune  evidenced  much 
concern  this  week  as  to  whether  Sen- 
ator Charles  O.  Baldwin  will  resign  his 
seat  In  the  state  senate  In  the  event 
that  he  becmnes  a  candidate  for  con- 
gress. The  News  Tribune  said  it  was 
"the  public"  that  was  anxious  to  know 
wliat  Mr.  Baldwin  would  do  in  the  event 
of  his  nominatlim  for  congress,  but 
everybody  who  read  It  knew  that  it  Is 
the  Rei)Ubllcans  who  are  anxious  to 
know.  As  to  what  Mr.  Baldwin  would 
do  in  that  event  possibly  no  one  knows 
now,  not  even  himself,  but  should  he 
desire  to  hold  the  office  of  senator  and 
serve  at  the  coming  session  of  the  legis- 
lature he  could  easily  find  a  precedent. 
There  is  JaJiies  A.  Tawney,  the  present 
congressman  from  the  First  distrii  t.  He 
finished  out  his  term  as  senator  after 
election  as  congressman  and.  to  all  ap- 
pearancs,  without  any  violation  of  his 
idea  of  the  law  or  of  luimiple.  Another 
precedent  can  be  found  in  the  case  of 
Darwin  S.  Hall,  who  was  elected  to  ct)n- 
giess  some  years  ago.  He  also  finished 
out  his  term  in  the  state  .senate. 

The  man  elected  this  fall  will  qualify 
on  March  4  but  he  will  not  do  any  actual 
work  as  congressman  until  the  follow- 
ing December  unless  a  special  session 
should  be  called. 

The  Republicans  would  like  very  much 
to  see  Mr.  Baldwin  resign.  It  would 
give  them  an  opportunity  to  land  a 
Republican  in  the  place  which  Mr.  Bald- 
win now  holds.  Perhaps  they  are 
anxious  to  let  Frank  Searle  have  an- 
other try.

The  Republican  county  committee 
has  been  announced  and  as  was  fore- 
casted, E.  L.  Millar  Is  the  chairman,  E. 
P.  Towne  Is  the  treasurer  and  Joseph 
Allen  recording  secretary.  The  com- 
mittee Is  remarkable  for  themselves  of 
of  what  is  known  as  the  machine  ele- 
what  is  known  as  the  ward  hust- 
lers, predominate  and  the  composition 
of  the  committee  is  admitted  by  the 
crowd  which  has  been  thrust  out  to  be 

good. 

•  •    • 

With  reference  to  this  committee  the 
Minneapolis  Journal  this  week  con- 
tained some  comment  that  caused  an 
awful  palpitation  among  the  Republi- 
cans of  the  machine  order  and  the 
News  Tribune  flew  into  a  fit  of  Indig- 
nation at  the  Journal  correspondent  for 
intimating  that  any  of  the  Republicans 
would  lie  anything  but  dyed  in  the  wool 
Morris  men.  The  innocent  cause  of  the 
overflow  from  the  Republican  organ  was 
the  following: 

"Some  attention  has  been  paid  in  this 
column  to  the  remarkable  reverse  of  the 
political  situation  in  Duluth  as  between 
the  Morris  and  anti-Morris  factions.  A 
correspondent  at  Duluth  writes  as  fol- 
lows of  the  composition  of  the  county 
committee  of  St.  Louis: 

"There  is  no  little  surprise  and  some 
consternation  amqpg  the  faithful  over 
the  persnnel  of  the  new  Republican 
county  committee.  With  one  or  two 
exceptions,  all  the  members  of  the  com- 
mittee from  Duluth  are  anti-Morris. 
Those  of  the  range  districts  may  be 
friends  of  Morris,  or  they  may  not. 
But  as  the  executive  committee  for 
the  campaign  will  be  made  up,  largely 
at  least,  from  members  in  Duluth,  the 
outside  Morris  feeling  will  not  count  for 
much.  Of  course,  the  county  commit- 
tee does  not  have  the  exclusive  or  osten- 
sible charge  of  the  congressional  cam- 
paign, but  the  congressional  committee 
is  sure  to  rely  on  the  local  organizations, 
and  must  do  so.  The  unfriendliness  of 
the  countv  committee  to  Morris  will 
hurt  his  candidacy  perhaps  only  nega- 
tivelv,  but  it  is  bound  to  hurt.  Morris 
is  almost  sure  of  election  anyway,  but 
the  condition  has  an  effect  in  the  fu- 
ture. The  membership  of  the  commit- 
tee Is  not  only  antl-Morrls,  it  is  pro- 
Wlndom.  a  fact  of  some  importance.  It 
is  very  evident  that  Sheriff  Sargent  has 
had  much  to  do  with  the  present  situ- 
ation, and  Is  quite  possible  that  the 
committee  named  only  now,  was  practi- 
cally elected  before  the  county  conven- 
tion a  month  or  so  ago.' 

"Fro  mthe  above  it  appears  that 
wires  are  alreadv  being"  laid  to  replace 
Judge  Morris  with  W.  L.  Wlndom  m 
1902.  The  procession  of  the  local  organi- 
zation will  give  Wlndom  a  great  boost 
in  the  direction  of  his  ambitions." 

To  this  the  News  Tribune  answered 
that  the  Republicans  were  solid  for 
Morris  and  that  there  would  be  no  cut- 
ting by  the  Windom  or  any  other  fac- 
tion. That  is  probably  true,  at  least  if 
there  is  it  will  never  be  publicly  an- 
nounced, but  that  the  committee  is  not 
made  up  of  Morris  men,  not  all  the 
protestations  the  Republican  paper  can 
publish,  can  change.  They  will  be  for 
Morris  all  right  in  this  campaign  but 
it  is  said  they  have  already  given  him 
to  understand  that  he  is  to  be  out  of 
the  way  two  years  hence.  They  do  not 
want   him   any  longer  than  they   have 

to  have  him.

The  Minneapolis  Tribune  sent  its 
political  writer  here  this  week  to  find 
Democrats  who  are  going  to  vote  for 
McKlnley.  The  result  of  the  reporter's 
labor  was  four  interviews  and  the  men 
quoted  were  Oscar  Mitchell,  who  two 
years  ago  managed  the  Page  Morris 
campaign  and  who  by  virtue  of  having 
gone  clean  over  into  the  Republican 
camp  now  holds  the  office  of  city  at- 


torney; J.  W.  Hunt,  who  has  also  gone 
into  the  Republican  party;  Wilson  G. 
Crosby  and  H.  F.  Greene.  The  result  of 
the  Tribune's  endeavors  has  only  ex- 
cited amusement  here.  If  an  attempt 
were  made  to  gather  interviews  from 
Republicans  who  will  vote  for  Bryan, 
there  could  be  five  obtained  for  every 
one  that  could  be  had  from  Democrats 
who  will  vote  for  McKinley.

I  hereby  call  a  meeting  of  the  state 
central  committee,  to  be  held  at  the

The  business  to  come  before  the  meet- 
ing is  the  election  of  officers,  viz: 
Chairman,  secretary  and  treasurer,  and 
the  selection  of  an  executive  committee, 
the  adoption  of  rules  and  regulations 
for  the  guidance  of  the  committee,  re-

The  St.  Paul  Globe  in  some  corres- 
pondence from  here  written  by  one  of 
its  staff  who  was  up  heie  this  week  has 
the  following: 

"In  connection  with  the  state  ticket 
there  is  a  strong  sentiment  here  that 
Theodore  Bruener,  of  ,St.  Cloud,  should 
be  given  a  place  on  the  ticket.  He  is 
said  to  be  the  strongest  man  in  Stearns 
county  and  besides  the  strength  he 
would  add  to  the  state  ticket  would  be 
of  material  benefit  to  the  Democratic 
congressional    ticket." 

It  would  be  Interesting  to  know  where 
the  Globe  man  found  that  sentiment. 
There  is  not  a  man  who  has  been  a  sup- 
porter of  the  Democratic  platform  in 
the  past  two  campaigns  who  would 
hear  for  a  moment  of  a  place  being 
given  Theodore  Bruener  on  any  Demo- 
cratic ticket  this  year.  He  was  a  most 
letter  opponent  of  Bryan  and  Towne 
four  yars  ago  and  was  on  the  stump 
against  them.  Democrats  here  will  not 
soon  forget  it  because  Mr.  Bruener  was 
a  man  who  had  received  many  rewards 
from  the  Democratic  party  and  certain- 
ly owed  it  his  allegiance.  He  was  not 
content  with  refraining  from  giving  his 
support,  but  he  took  the  most  active 
part  possible  in  defeating  the  party 
which  had  handsomely  taken  care  of 
him.  Mr.  Bruener  will  get  no  support 
from  Duluth   Democrats. 


Love  Was 
Color  Blind 

Amelia  Waldum  Married  a 
Colored  Man  She  Met 
in  a  West  Supe- 
rior Hotel. 


St.  Paul,  July  28.— If  love  wasn't 
blind  it  could  see  no  reason  in  the  case 
of  Amelia  Waldum  and  John  H.  Carter 
why  a  white  girl  should  not  marry  a 
colored  man. 

Mr.  Carter,  who  is  a  waiter  at  the 
Ryan,  and  Miss  Waldum.  a  white  girl, 
whose  home  is  at  Black  River  Falls. 
Wis.,  were  quietly  married  at  the  home 
of  Carter's  sister,  174  Fillmore  avenue, 
last  Sunday  afternoon,  and  the  story  of 
their  love  and  marriage  has  at  least  a 
tinge  of  romance. 

They  met  last  April  In  West  Superior. 
In  a  hotel  at  which  Miss  Waldum  was 
employed  as  a  cook  and  Carter  n  waiter. 
It  did  not  take  them  lo.ng  to  see  that 
they  liked  each  other,  and  before  many 
days  they  seemed  as  friendly  as  if  they 
h£.d  known  each  other  from  childhood. 
The  friendship  increased  until  It  was 
e\ident  that  the  tie  that  liound  them 
was  a  very  strong  one.  so  ttrong.  in  fact, 
that  it  seemed  that  it  would  be  U9*»less 
to  try  to  break  it,  and  soon  it  was  whis- 
pered alwut  the  hotel  th*t  they  were  in 
love. 

The  gossip  that  is  always  heard  when 
a  colored  man  pays  attention  to  a  white 
woman  did  not  disturb  them,  but  rather 
strengthened  their  devotion  to  each 
other.  Soon  Carter  was  offered  a  posi- 
tion at  the  Ryan  hotel,  in  this  city,  and 
came  here,  leaving  his  betrothed  at 
West  Superior.  They  maintained  corre- 
spondence, and,  upon  his  pleadings,  she 
came  here  and  about  a  we-?k  :igo  ar- 
rangements for  the  marriage  were  com- 
pleted. ,.„    , 

Rev.  S.  E.  Washington  was  notified 
that  he  would  be  expected  to  be  on  hand 
at  the  above  number  Sunday  afternoon, 
and  at  the  appointed  hour  he  tied  the 
nuptial  knot.  In  the  evening  a  large 
number  of  Carter's  friends  gathered  and 
gave  them  an  old-fashioned  charivari, 
and  wished  them  good  luck  on  life's 
journey.  ,     .. 

Miss  Waldum's  parents  are  conducting 
a  hotel  at  Black  River  Falls.  They 
knew,  or  at  least  had  heard,  that  their 
daughter  was  associating  with  a  colored 
man.  and  they  were  bitterly  Dpposed  to 
letting  the  matter  develop,  but  the  young 
people  were  determined  that  they  would

and  when  called  upon  there  by  a  Globe 
reporter  they  seemed  perfectly  happy. 

Carter  is  23  and  his  wife  20.  They  ex-

soon,  and  they  are  preparin.g  to  put  up  a

Mrs.  Carter  is  a  good-looking  woman, 
and  comes  of  a  family  that  are  pioneer* 
in  their  section  of  Wisconsin.

His  Hand  to  His 
Hip  Pocket. 

Workmen  Have  That  Habit  to  a 
Remarkable   Degree. 

A  workman  will  suddenly  pause  In  his 
work  and  whip  his  hand  around  to  his 
hlp-pockeL  For  a  gun?  Not  a  bit  of  it. 
For  a  plug  of  chewirg  tobacco.  Very 
often  he  will  bite  off  .a  piece  and  put  the 
remainder  back  with  an  air  of  dissatis- 
faction. It  was  not  what  he  wanted, 
but  having  bought  it,  he  must  chew  It. 
If  this  experience  has  been  yours,  buy 
for  trial  a  plug  of  Goli  Rope,  Kingbolt, 
Thrasher  or  Rise  and  Shine,  and  you 
will  find  it  better  tiian  the  ordinary 
brands.  The  above  brinds  are  made  by 
the  Wilson-McCallay  Tobacco  Co.,  of 
Middletown,  Ohio,  a  company  which  is 
absolutely  independent  of  any  trust  or 
monopoly.  Workmen  have  it  in  their 
power  to  strangle  moiopoly  by  buying 
tolmccos  made  by  Independent  concerns. 
The  Wllson-McCallay  brands  are  clean, 
pure,  wholesome.  They  do  not  give 
heartburn  and  other  efects  of  a  similar 
character.  If  you  are  a  working  man 
the  inside  of  your  dimer  pail  is  a  good 
place  to  scratch  the  names  of  these  four 
famous  UNION  made  brands.  Gold 
Rope,  Kingbolt,  Thrtisher,  Rise  and 
Shine.

Prof.  Laborde's  Marvelous  French  Core  for  Lost  Manhood. 

FIVE  DAYS'  TRIAL  TREATMENT 
Sent  Absolutely  Free  by  Sealed  Mall  To  All  Sufferers. 

NO  C.  0.  D,  OB  DEPOSIT  SCHEME. 

The  otily  preparation  known  to  seienee  whieb  really 
cures  I#08t  Manhood  is  "CALTHOS,"  the  marvelou* 
French  remedy  discovered  by  Prof.  Jules  I<al)orde.  It  is 
controlled  in  this  country  by  The  Von  Mohl  Company,  o« 
Cincinnati,  Ohio,  a  concern  which  occupies  a^  high  and 
honorable  place  in  the  world  of  medicine.  It  is"one  of  the 
largest  and  most  responsible  houses  in  Cincinnati,  U 
anyone  who  is  acquainted  in  that  city  will  testify. 

The  Von  Mohl  Company  invites  all  men  rafierinji 
from  IfOst  Manhood.  Spermatorrhoea,  Varicocele,  Small 
Parts  or  Weakness  of  any  nature  in  the  Ner\  es  or  Sexual 
Or^BS,  to  send  their  names  and  receive  a  five  days'  treat* 
ment.  This  will  prove  the  wonderful  vitalizing  powers 
of  "CALTHOS."  After  using  it  five  days  the  sufferer* 
will  find  new  vigor  in  their  organs,  new  force  in  their 
muscles,  new  blood  in  their  veins,  new  ambition,  and 
rapid  progress  toward  tbe  buoyant  feelings  and  sensa* 
tions  of  younger  days. 

This  liberal  free  offer  is  genuine.  There  is  no  swind- 
ling C.  O.  D.  or  Deposit  Scheme  connected  with  it.  The  five 
davs'  treatment  is  sent  by  sealed  mail  to  all  on  request, 
wrapped  in  a  plain  paclcage,  and  full  printed  instructions 
accompany  the  medicine,  so  that  rach  patient  becomef 
his  own  doctor  and  cures  himself  at  home. 

It  doesn't  make  any  difference  what  caused  tbe  weak* 
ness— whether  bad  habits  in  youth,  or  excess,  or  over* 
work,  or  business  troubles.  "CALTHOS"  will  effect  a 
cure,  no  matter  what  big  name  tbe  disease  may  be  called 
by  doctors. 

The  Von  Mohl  Company  treats  all  correspondence  ia 
perfect  confidence.  Under  no  conditions  will  it  make 
public  tbe  names  of  tbe  thousands  who  have  written  tes- 
timonials telling  of  tbeir  rtstoration  to  robust  manhood 
after  other  medicines  and  appliances  have  proved  worth- 
less. "  CALTHOS  "  is  regularly  used  in  the  French  and 
German  armies,  and  tbe  soldiers  in  these  countries  have 
come  to  be  perfect  models  of  strength  and  vitality.  Cures 
are  effected  at  all  ages  from  twenty  to  eighty  years.  There 
is  no  case  (except  where  the  stage  of  epilepsy  or  insanity 
has  been  reached)  which  it  will  not  radically,  quickly  and 
permanently  cure.  Sexual  weakness  docs  uot  cure  itself. 
It  grows  worse  from  week  to  week.  Each  day  aggravates 
the  mental  and  physical  anguish. 

Send  today  for  the  free  five  days'  trial  treatment.  If  it 
helps  you,  more  of  the  medicine  can  be  purchased.  If.it 
does  not  help,  no  hann  is  done  and  no  money  has  been  paid  out.  You  can  send  your  name  in 
the  full  knowledge  th  at  it  will  be  kept  from  all.  The  "  CALTHOS  "  department  of  our  business 
is  strictly  confidential.    Address  applications  for  trial  treatment,  etc..  to

IDEAS  AISOUT  FISHES. 

Some  Held  Pohonous  That  Are  Very 
Good  Eating. 


The  old 
something 
year,  says 


fisher  nen  say  that  there  is 
r.eeuliar  about  the  fish  this 
a  San  Juan  Canigtrano,  Cal., 
correspondent  of  the  New  York  .Sun.  In 
tC-;e  first  place,  the  water  is  alive  with 
sunflsh,"  which  sport  in  the  waves  all 
day  long,  vast  schools  almost  covering 
the  surface  at  times.  The  sunfish  is  on»i 
of  the  most  remfcrkable  of  all  fl.shes.  It 
has  apparently  had  its  body  cut  off  just 
behind  the  fins,  leaving  an  absurd  rim  >f 
flesh  in  lieu  of  i  tail;  It  is  oblong  in 
Shane  and  is  in<  apable  of  rapid  move- 
ment; indeed,  it  can  be  cauglht  with  a 
boat  hook.  It  attains  a  large  size,  sev- 
eral having  beer  seen  which  were  esti- 
mated at  fifteen  feet  across.  Its  skin  is 
hard  and  rough  md  covered  with  slime, 


which  at  night  is  at  times  luminous, 
making  the  flrsh  a  remarkable  object  ad 
it  sails  through  the  upper  portion  of  .the 
ocean. 

Sunfish  are  utterly  useless.  To  the 
taste  the  flesh  is  insipid  and  soft,  while 
the  skin  itself  is  an  inch  or  more  in 
tiiickness,  more  like  InSla  rubber  than 
anything  else.  As  large  as  it  is.  the  sun- 
fish lives  upon  a  diet  of  jelly  fishes, 
which  it  tears  in  pieces  witti  its  jxiwerful 
bone-like  teeth.  The  Santa  Catalina 
channel  is  a  famous  cruising  ground  for 
these  fishes  at  all  times,  but  the  school 
which  has  taken  possession  of  the  waters 
this  season  is  unusual  and  appear  to  ba 
made  up  of  young  fish. 

A  very  common  fisEi  on  the  Cilifornia 
coast  and  in  Florida  is  the  moray,  an  eel- 
like creatiire  as  large  as  a  man's  arm 
aif8  four  feet  in  length.  The  snake-like 
appearance  of  the  fish  is  its  protection, 
and.  consequent^',  one  of  the  best  edible 
fishes  is  lost  to  the  epicure,  as  the  moray 
cannot  be  given  away  in  Soutriern  Cali- 
fornia as  a  food  fish,  and  in  Florida  also 
peoule  refuse  to  eat  it  on  account  of  its 
appearance. 

The  list  of  uneatable  fishes  is  largv^. 
Sonie  of  the  Cuban  fishes  are  poisonous, 
and  so  deeu-seated  is  the  prejudice 
against  them  that  ui>  to  within  a  few 
years  an  American  fleet  of  smacks  ani 
schooners  from  Lond  Island  almost  con- 
trolled the  Havana  fish  trade.  catchin.!r 
all  their  fish  on  the  Florida  reef,  sixty 
or  eighty  miles  away,  and  carrying  them 
to  Havana  in  their  wells.  When  ask^^'d 
what  the  trouble  was  with  the  Cuban 
fish,  the  local  fishermen  invariably  an- 
swered that  there  was  so  much  copper 
on  the  bntom  that  th«  fishes  were  all 
permeated  with  it.  and  those  who  ab? 
them  were  poisoned,  thrnigh  no  one  ever 
heard  of  anyone  dying  from  such  a 
cause.  In  New  England  a  person  who 
ate  a  sculpin  would  be  looked  upon  witli 
amazement.  A  Maine  fisherman  upon 
one  occasion  explained  that  .sculpins 
Avere  "oizen,"  and  went  si^  far  as  to 
point  out  tile  poisonou.s  fins,  and  de- 
scribed tfce  case  of  a  mate  who  had  lost 
his  arm  by  being  poisoned  by  one:  but 
the  truth  "is  that  the  spines  of  many 
fishes  are  poisonous  when  they  run  into 
the  flesh,  and  serious  wounds  are  often 
the  result:  yet  the  fi.sh  thenipolves  can- 
not be  said  to  be  poisonous.  A  Califor- 
nian  says:  "The  sculnin  is  the  be.st 
eating  fish  in  these  or  an>  waters,  but 
the  trouble  is  th.it  half  the  fishermen 
think  it  is  poisonous,  and  the  oonsumer<^ 
will  not  take  such  a  locking  fish,  so  tho 
delicate  v,hite  meat  goes  to  waste.  It  i.^ 
all  on  account  of  the  appearance  of  the 
fish,  which  looks,  with  its  goggle  eyes 
and  sfiinep.  like  a  Japanese  ma«k." 

Nearly  all  th<»  rays  are  eaten  by  tlie 
Chinese  and  considered  delicacies,  but 
some  people  have  a  prejudi<e  against 
them,  as  they  are  suiii>o.sed  t>  have  a 
sting  and  to  be  poisonous.  Sharks  come 
under  the  ban,  though  the  Chinese  rank 
shark  fins  when  made  into  a  jelly  next 
to  bird's  liest  soup.  The  Bahama  bar- 
racuda, wr.iich  attains  a  large  size,  is  at 
times  extremely  poin.sonous.  and  peoole 
have  been  known  to  die  from  eating  it. 
but  this  was  at  certain  seasons.  Verv 
few  fishes  are  poi.sonous  in  the  strict 
.sense, of  the  word— tliat  is  have  a  poison- 
ous gland;  but  such  a  one  is  Ihe  load 
fish,  a  toad-like  creature  which  has  upon 
its  l)ack  a  series  of  spines  that  are  essen- 
tially p'Msonous.  The  iioivupinc  fish  is 
said  to  be  jxi.^onous,  and  being  oom- 
jiletely  covered  '.vilh  long  .opines,  it  is 
certainly  a  disagreeable  creature  to 
m^et.  and  few  persons  would  have  t!;e 
temerity  to  dean  one.  The  p.irnd  fish  of 
the  Florida  reef  also  falls  beneath  the 
piison  ban,  in  all  probability  because  it 
is  green;  certainly  the  meat  is  sweet, 
the  writer  having  caught  and  eaten 
many.  One  of  the  gar  fishes  i.«  pro- 
nounced deadly  liy  many  fishermen  on 
account  of  the  "phosiihorus"  on  it. 
which  is  merely  a  luminous  fin,  a  beacon 
light  to  fellow-fishes.

THE    DULUTH    EVENING    HERALD:      SATURDAY,    JULY    28,    1900. 


Gossip  of  the  Stage 

Fanc-Farrcll  G)mpany  to  Stay  at  the  Pa- 
vilion and  Present  ^*My  Uncle 
From  Japan/^ 

LEON    KUSELL'S    EXPERIENCES. 


The  Fane-Parrell  company  have  made 
H  hit  in  Dululh  and  Manager  Kusell 
has  re-engaged  it  for  another  week. 
The  public  has  shown  by  its  attendance 
that  the  Pavilion  is  the  popular  resort. 
and  Mr.  Kusell  is  giving  the  best  at- 
tractions always.  Next  week  the  Fane- 
Farrell  company  will  present  for  the 
opening  bill  "My  Uncle  From  Japan," 
one  of  those  delicious  sparkling  farce- 
comedies,  full  of  ridiculous  situations 
and  overflowing  with  fun  and  laughter 
and  bright  up-to-date  specialties.  On 
Tuesday  the  ever  popular  D'Ennery 
drama,  "Two  Orphans,"  will  be  pre- 
sented. This  play,  made  famous  by 
Kate  Claxton,  needs  no  extended  no- 
lice.        AFmost    everyone    has    seen    or 

heard  of  the  "Two  Orphans."  The 
Fane-Farrell  company  carry  special 
scenery  fur  this  play  and  additional  in- 
terest will  be  given  by  the  singing  of 
*Ave  Mari^"  by  Mrs.  Matt  Kusell  in  the 
scene  of  the  Notn-  Dame  church,  ac- 
companied by  an  organ  and  full  set  of 
chimes.  As  the  Fane-Farrell  company 
has  given  such  general  satisfaction  in 
all  their  play.s.  a  dramatic  treat  may 
be  expe<"ted  in  the  production  of  "Two 
Orphans.'  Friday.  Saturday,  matinee 
and  night  the  Irish  comedy-drama  'The 
Midnight  Bells"  will  be  given.  This  is 
based  on  a  story  of  Ireland  of  100  years 
ago  and  depicts  life  on  the  Emerald 
isle,  when  the  country  was  the 
land  of  red  cats  and  landlords  and  the 
sons  of  the  soil  were  driven  hither  and 
thither  and  had  to  exercise  their  native 
wit  to  .<;ave  their  lives  and  liberty.  It 
is  full  of  startling  climaxes,  pathetic 
scenes,  but  the  comedy  and  well  known 
wit  and  repartee  of  "Pat'  pervades  the 
entire  p»lay  and  makes  it  one  of  the 
most  enjoyable  in  the  company's  reper- 
tory. Mrs.  Matt  Kusell  has  beeh  re- 
engaged for  one  week  longer  and  will 
repeat  her  success  by  rendering  "Ye  OKI 
Time  Songs."  Mrs.  Kusell  has  won 
i|uite  a  renutation  for  herself  in  such 
houses  as  Keiths,  Proctors,  and  all  the 
leading  vaudeville  houses  in  the  coun- 
try. During  next  week  Mrs.  Kusell 
will  change  her  selections  with  each 
c^iange  of  program.  Mr.  Fane.  Miss 
Farrell.  Mr.  Ellis,  Howard  Tremaine 
and  the  balance  of  company  will  be  seen 
in  strong  parts  the  coming  week  and 
will  no  doubt  repeat  the  success  they 
have  already  made. 

Another  special  engagement  for  next 
week  will  be  Mr.  fJus  Hearne,  a  descrip- 
tive vocalist.  This  will  make  the  |>er- 
formance  continuous  as  the  intermis- 
sions. \\  ill  be  taken  up  with  the  various 
specialtit'S. 


A    VATIJED    EXPERIENCE. 

Leun  Kusell,  who  is  doing  some  clever 
""Aork  here  and  as  associate  manager  of 
the  Pavilion,  making  himself  quite 
popular,  has  had  quite  an  extendt-d 
theatrical  experience.  Mr.  Ku.sells 
tirst  venture  was  with  a  small  company 
in  the  British  West  Indies,  eightet-n 
years  ago.  The  coHipany  was  coni- 
po.'sed  wholly  of  local  talent  and  Mr. 
Kusell  played  thf-m  all  through  thr 
West  Indian  islands,  for  benefits,  for 
•  •hun-hcs.  schools,  etr.  From  there  he 
jum|)ed  to  the  box  office  of  the  (Irand 
opera  house.  San  Francisco,  rather  a 
long  jump.  For  several  years  hf 
handled  the  pastelwiards  for  Dan  Shelby 
at  the  Academy,  C'hicago.  Was  treas- 
urer and  business  managf»r  of  theaters 
in  Albany.  Rochester.  Newark,  New 
York,  Philadelphia,  and  looked  after  the 
business  interests  of  Prof.  Hermann. 
Lewis  Morri.son,  (Jus  Heege.  and  others. 
Mr.  Kusell  until  lately  has  been  manag- 
ing the  late  Edwin  Mayo  in  "Pudd'n- 
hed  Wilson."  Both  .star  and  play  are  well 
remembered  in  Duluth.  where  the  late 
Mr.  Mayo  played  two  very  large  engage- 
ments at  the  Lyceum.  Mr.  Kusell 
says  he  lost  his  best  friend  when  Edwin 
Mayi)  died.  From  now  on  Mr.  Kusell 
will  be  as.Hociated  with  Matt  Kusell  and 
great  things  may  be  expected.  "The 
Kusell  Amusement  company"  rtill  have 
several  attractions  on  the  road  next 
season,  but  their  permanent  headquar- 
ters will  be  in  Duliuth. 


DELIA  STACY'S  TROT'SHRS. 
Dululh  people  who  .saw  "A  Bachelor's 
Honeymoon"  remember  Miss  Delia 
Stacey.  She  was  seen  in  the  part  of 
"June  Joyce."  the  actress,  last  .season 
as  well  as  the  seas4)n  before.  She  is 
now  playing  a  boy  part  in  "The  Burgo- 
master." a  new  burlesque  running  at 
the  Dearborn  theater  in  Chicago,  and 
recently  she  told  a  Chicago  reporter  of 


her  experience  in  being  measured  for 
trousers. 

"I  am  an  army  girl,  born  In  a  frontier 
fort,  and  I  thought  I  was  pretty  brave," 
she  said,  "  for  many  a  time  I've  known 
the  fear  x)f  hostile  savages  that  were 
prowling  around  the  stockade.  But 
that  was  nothing  to  the  ordeal  of  being 
measured  for  these,"  glancing  at  the 
mannish  garments. 

"Twist  up  the  piano  stoo^,  Will,"  she 
says,  beckoning  to  a  boy  in  the  wings 
"I  want  to  sit  down.  You  see.  with  this 
.suit."  she  explained,  "the  piano  stool 
has  to  be  very  high;  with  the  seaside 
one  it  can  be  dropped  about  four 
inches:  with  my  dress  suit  its  impossi- 
ble at  any  point.  But  I  was  telling 
about  these  measurements.  I  nearly 
died,  but  I  wasn't  half  as  embarrassed 
as  the  tailors.  I  had  on  tights— just 
pink  tights— of  course.  I  had  to  have 
the  tr— you  know— fie  right.  Then  I 
had  on  a— well— not  a  Chinese  blouse 
—but  it  was  short  like  one,  and  the  up- 
per half  of  the  front  was  starched.  The 
older  tailor — there  were  two  of  them — 
came  in  first,  and  he  searched  for  ever 
so  long  in  a  desk  with  his  back  turned 
to  me  all  the  time. 

"He  said  he  was  looking  for  his  note- 
book. Then  a  young  man— an  awfully 
young  One— came  in  in  his  shirt  sleeves 
and  with  a  long  yellow  tape  hanging 
over  his  left  shoulder.  He  started  when 
he  saw  me.  and  then  he  looked  over  at 
the  old  man's  back— he  was  still 
searching,  you  know— and  then  he  got 
quite  red  and  something  out  the  win- 
dow seemed  to  occupy  his  attention.  1 
waited  and  waited  until  I  began  to 
think  that  notebook  never  would  be 
found.  I  don't  see  why  he  was  so 
particular  about  it,  anyway.  But  he 
said  it  was  really  necessary  to  put  the 
record  of  measflrements  down  in  a  book. 
I  told  him  I  couldn't  understand  why 
a  piece  of  any  kind  of  paper  wouldn't 
do  as  well — do  you? 

"Finally  I  got  tired  and  I  said:  'Well, 
here  I  am,  here  I  am— waiting.' 

'1  know  it,  mi.«.^.  and  we'll  begin 
right  off.  John,  now  be  business  and 
get  through  this  thing  as  soon  as 
lan.  You  know  all  those  other 
turners  are  waiting.' 

•John's  face     was  like* a     bfet, 
then  the  day   was  warm  and   I   wasnt 
surpri.sed  at  that. 

"  Arm  measurement  first,'  said  th- 
older  man,  and  will  you  believe  it.  he 
drew  a  narrow  notebook  from  the 
lireast  pocket  of  his  vest,  where  it  mu.st 
have  been  all  the  time.  Then  he  put  on 
a  very  dignified  expression. 

"John  ran  the  yellow  tape  from  my 
shoulder  down  to  my  waist.  Then  he 
drew  it  inside  the  arm.  and  up  and 
down  my  back,  and  acro.=!.s  my  should- 
ers, and  under  my  arms,  and  around 
my  waist. 

"  'Now,  the  vests,  the  lensTth  from 
sill  ulder  to  the  high  opening  for  the 
street  suit,  the  same  to  the  low  opening 
for  the  evening  suit.'  instructed  the 
older  tailor,  jutting  down  the  last  of  a 
!<  ng  list  of  numbers. 

"Now,  the— the— "  liegan  the  olde*- 
man. 

■  Yes.  yes,'  interrupted  John,  mop- 
ping his  forhead  with  a  big  checked 
hanilkerchief  he  to<jk  from  his  hio 
pocket. 

•  The  waist.' 

"  'Yes,  sir.' 

'•  'The  ankle.' 

"  "Yes,  .'••ir.' 

"  The  knee.' 

"  'Yes.  sir." 

"  "The  thigh.' 

"  "Yes,  sir;  yes.  sir.' 

"  'Now  the  outside  of  the  1 ' 

"  'Yes.  sir.'  .said  John  l)efore  he  could 
finish.  By  this  time  John  was  redder 
than  ever  and  acted  as  if  he  was  in  a 
great  hurry. 

"  And  now  the * 

"There's  my  call,  exclaimed  Miss 
Stacey,  interrupting  herself.  "Quick. 
Will,  pull  down  these  things.  I'd  strap 
them  in  place  only  I  could  never  get 
onto  a  piano  stool  even."

peka  during  the  coming  season.  He  will 
not  be  seen  in  any  city.  The  comedian  will 
take  a  rest,  and  an  admiring  public  will  be 
compelled  to  wait  for  his  reapi>earance 
until  the  season  of  1*11-1902.  This  informa- 
tion i.s  contained  In  the  following  dispatch 
from  New  York: 

"Sol  Smith  Hu.ssell.  the  popular  actor, 
who  broke  down  while  he  was  playing  in 
Chicago  last  spring,  and  whi»  was  obligctl 
to  close  his  S'-ason  i)rcmaturfly,  will  not 
return  to  the  .stage  this  coming  winter. 
Mr.  Russell  ha.s  a  new  play  by  Michael 
Morton,  which  he  was  very  anxious  to  pro- 
duce this  autumn.  His  friends  have  been 
using  their  best  i>owers  to  dissuade  him 
from  the  scheme,  feeling  that  it  would  be 
to  his  advantage  to  take  a  long  rest  rather 
than  run  the  risk  of  another  breakdiiwn. 
The  doctor  puoh-hooed  the  idea  that  he 
was  not'  ju.st  as  well  as  he  ever  was— bet- 
ter, if  anything.  A  few  days  aso,  how- 
ever, one  of  the  physicians  who  treated 
him  during  his  recent  illness,  had  a  long 
and  serious  talk  with  him. 

"  'If  Mr.  Russell  would  rest  and  take 
things  easy  for  a  whole  year,"  the  medical 
man  said,  "tht  re  would  be  no  reason  under 
the  sun  why  he  should  not  return  to  the 
stage  then  and  play  for  the  next  twenty 
years  or  more. 

"  'But,'  added  the  physician,  'if  you  wiil 
go  out  this  winter— well,  I  shall  no|  bo 
answerable  for  the  consequences.' 

"This  warning  had  Its  due  effect  and  Mr. 
Russell  sent  word  to  his  manager,  Frtd  G. 
lierger,  to  cancel  the  tour  thai  had  lH>en 
booked  for  him— that  he  was  going  to  rest. 

"  "Mr.  Russell  is  at  his  .summer  home 
at  Martha's  Vineyard,"  said  Mr.  Berger. 
'He  looks  well  and  says  he  feels  well,  and 
there  is  really  nothing  radically  wrong 
with  him.  He  just  needs  a  good,  long  rest. 
Next  winter  lie  probably  will  spend  in 
Southern  Calilornia  and  in  the  autumn  ot 
llKil  he  will  produce  Mr.  Mortons  new  play, 
which  we  own  and  have  arranged  to  retain 
until  them.'   "

is  getting  fat  and  fears  she  will  have  to 
Bive  ui>  ibe  stage  l)ec.iuse  of  It.  She  con- 
fesses to  lti<»  pounds  and  she  is  not  a  tall 
laJy.  To  ii  Detroit  reitorier  she  said  the 
other  day: 

"I  can't  get  married,  for  men  now  days 
do  not  wani  wives  who  have  opinions. 
They  want  for  a  wife  a  ellnging  vine  who 
does  not  liave  a  single  <jpinlon.  I  wouldn't 
make  a  very  good  vine,  would  I?  As  get- 
ting mariied  Is  out  of  the  tiuesilon  for  m*. 
I  am  casting  about  for  the  next  best 
thing  to  do  and  I  am  half  inclined  to  ac- 
eej)t  an  offer  made  me  in  New  York.  I 
have  two  off*  rs  in  fact.  A  perfumery 
honsi^  and  a  well  paper  house  have  of- 
fered me  l.-iiK)-*  a  .vear  and  expenses  to 
triivel.  Of  i-Durse  I  wouldn't  like  to  tr.ivil 
I'or  a  firm  selling  buiciiers'  utensils  or  a 
laundry  suppl.v  house,  but  ni<e  delicate 
perfumerv  or  rich  wall  paper  would  be  all 
right.  I  think  I  would  make  a  hit.  I 
would  be  a  womanl.v  woman  on  the  road. 
I  wouldn't  go  Into  a  hotel  and  elbow  my 
way  up  to  t(ie  register,  shake  myself,  toss 
my  grip  to  the  bell  boy  and  say  to  the 
clerk:  "Say,  old  man.  have  you  got  me 
llxed  all  right  for  sample  room  with  bawth 
at  14  jier?'  No,  sir:  I'd  go  in  demure  like 
:intl  when  customers  wiinted  to  buy  me 
red-top  at  $5  a  bottle,  why  that  would  be 
all  right,  and  I'd  charge  it  up  to  the 
firm. 

"Why.  when  T  came  over  from  Eng- 
land, where  1  made  a  hit— all  American 
actresses  make  a  hit  in  Enslnml.  you 
know— I  met  Thomas  B.  Rred  and  Rich- 
anl  Croker.  Before  I  met  them  my 
mother  overheard  a  conversation  betwi-:-!! 
Reed,  Croker  <Tnd  our  manager  that 
placed  me  in  a  very  bad  light.  I  was  lean- 
ing over  the  railinj;  of  the  shin  wdT^n 
Croker  said  to  the  manager:  "Is  that  fat 
girl  over  there  a  good  actress?"  The 
manager  said:  'Yes.  she's  pretty  good; 
like  all  actresses  who  ;iro  pretty  good. 
she  has  a  coufile  of  slats  loose."  The  stage 
is  no  place  for  a  womanly  woman  and  the 
stage  has  no  womanly  women.  That  is 
not  my  reason,  however,  for  leaving  it. 
for  I  do  like  the  life.  I'm  a  good  pal,  if 
T  do  8a V  it  mvself,  and  I  can  sleen  onlv 
in  the  dav.  When  T  find  that  T  have 
reached  the  proportions  of  an  ice  wapon 
Vou  can  exnert  me  in  Detroit  with  a  full

ASIA'S  LARGEST   LAKE. 

Lake  Baikal,  the  largest  body  of  land- 
locked water  In  A-la,  will,  in  the  near  fu- 
ture, be  of  much  more  importance  ti>  the 
world  in  general  than  at  present,  for  the 
Siberian  railroad  will,  as  it  were,  bring  the 
lake  Into  the  world.  This  the  Russian  gov- 
ernment has  already  recognized,  and  in 
consequence  has  sent  a  number  of  expe- 
rienced exploierr.  to  study  careftUly  an<! 
report  upon  the  geography  of  the  lake  and 
the  surroundiiitr  district.  The  report  which 
the  explorers  have  made  has  srreatly  en- 
riched our  knowledge  of  this  hitherto 
mysterious  sea,  says  the  Philadi  Iphia  In- 
qinrer. 

Lake  Baikal  has  an  area  of  over  20.00.1 
sfiuarc  miles.  The  name  Baikal  is  derlvei! 
from  a  Tartar  w.>rd.  Baykul.  which  means 
rich.  The  Mongols,  on  the  other  hand,  call 
it    the   Dalia-nor— the   holy   lake. 

It  is  often  shrouded  In  thick  fog.  and 
'ashed  by  terrific  storms.  In  the  former  it 
is  no  rare  o(  currence  for  the  boats  of 
fishermen  to  wander  aimlessly  for  days 
before  lindinc  a  landing  plae<\  No  won- 
rler  then  that  the  lake  is  feared  by  the  su- 
perstitious peasantry.  At  a  distainje  of 
half  a  mile  from  the  shore  the  bottom 
•-■inks  down  sneer  from  4(«V)  to  HOOO  feet. 
Before  the  recent  investigations  it  was 
thought  that  the  deenest  point  in  the  lake 
was  not  more  than  '>,")00  feet,  which  would 
be  3000  feet  below  the  sea  level.  But  Dry- 
enko  has  .iust  nroved  the  existence  of  "a 
depth  of  over  SOOO  feet,  such  a  depth  as 
can  -be  found  nowhere  biM  in  the  ocean, 
and  which  far  exceeds  that  of  such  ocean 
seas  as  the  White.  Baltic  and  North  seas. 

Strange  to  say.  Lake  Baikal  does  not 
freeze  readily  even  in  deen  winter,  and 
traffic  Is  often  open  tintil  the  end  of  De- 
cember. It  was  al.so  discovered  that  while 
the  water  at  the  southern  end  of  the  lake 
freezes  completely,  that  of  the  north,  es- 
pecially about  the  Island  Okhnm,  does  not 
freeze  over  entirely.  The  latter  fact  ex- 
plains the  presence  on  the  island  of  the 
famous  Lake  Baikal  seals,  which  form  a 
distinct   class,    with    marked   peculiarities. 

With  the  exception  of  where  the  River 
Solenga  enters  the  lake,  the  shores  are 
backed  by  mountains,  whose  slopes  are 
covered  with  thick  forests  of  fir  and 
larch,  and  whose  summits  are  snow-cov- 
crod. 

The  lake  is  so  wide  that  from  the  mid- 
dle the  shores  cannot  be  seen:  and  It  is 
impossible  to  distinguish  the  mountains 
from  the  clouds,  the  former  being  veiled 
in  a  thin,  violet-tinted  haze,  through  which 
the  sun's  ray»i  Illuminate  the  glaciers  so 
that  they  glitter  like  immense  stars.

Should  Be  Made  Recognizing  j 

a  National  Faiths  I 


Beaver  Falls,  Pa.,  July  25.— (Special  to 
The  Herald.)— The  majority  of  the  people 
of  this  country  are  not  Jews,  pagans,  Mo- 
hammedans, or  Mormons,  but  Christians. 
That  being  true,  it  follows  that  the  trend 
of  sentiment,  the  institutions  and  the  civ- 
ilization of  the  country  are  distinctly 
Christian.  The  supreme  court  of  the 
United  States  has  unanimously  declared 
this  to  be  a  Christian  county  and  no 
greater  insult  could  be  given  co  us,  than 
for  any  nation  or  people  to  in^^inuate  tnat 
we  are  anything  else. 

Admitting  then  that  we  are  a  Christian 
nation,  and  we  are  proud  of  the  distinc- 
tion, can  it  be  thought  a  slran.ge  thing, 
or  in  any  sense  an  unreasonable  thing 
that  we  should  have  in  our  constitution  of 
government  a  recognition  of  tne  essen- 
tial   moral    principles    of    Chil'?tianity"? 

Are  we  either  ashamed  or  unwilling 
to  have  an  nndenialjle  legal  basis  for  our 
Christian  legislation?  A  constitutional 
guarantee  for  our  Christian  civilization? 
If  Christianity  be  the  unwritten  consti- 
tution of  our  country,  it,  at  least,  is  not 
unreasonable  that  it  shoidd  ha\t;  some 
recognition  in  the  written  constitution. 
Judge  Jamieson,  an  eminent  constitution- 
al lawyer,  has  said:  "In  a  country  where 
there  is  a  written  constitution,  that  coi- 
stitution  must  be  a  translation  into  legal 
language  of  the  facts  that  exist  in  the'civ- 
ilization  of  that  country:  if  it  do  not, 
one  of  two  things  will  take  place,  elthtr 


Now   for   some   reasons   enforcing   such 
an   amendment: 

1.  The  nation  owes  to  Christ,  who  Is  Its 
supreme  ruler,  a  distinct  recognition.  He 
holds  the  nation  In  his  hands.  Under  ills 
favoring  providence  it  has  been  built  up. 
And  in  His  powt-r  He  can  destroy  it  If 
it  disowns  Him.  He  is  the  governor  of  the 
nations. 

2.  We  have  adopted  Christian  features 
Into  our  administration  of  government 
which  we  should  either  make  legal  by  con- 
stitutional provision  or  else  give  them  up. 
e.  g.  We  have  prayer  in  congress,  prayer 
to  God  in  the  name  of  Christ;  shall  wn 
t>ray  to  one  not  acknowledged  in  our  con- 
stitution? or  in  the  name  of  one  we  do  not 
recognize  constitutionally?  If  It  is  riglit 
to  i3ray  to  Christ,  it  is  right  to  recognize 
Him.  Again,  we  send  chaplains  to  armies, 
navies  and  benevolent  institutions.  What 
for?  To  preach  the  religion  of  One  we  do 
not  recognize  In  our  constitution  of  gov- 
ernment. It  is  honorable  in  a  nation  to 
at)i)oint,  commission  and  pay  men  to 
|)reach  a  Christ  It  refuses  to  recognize? 
Still  again,  we  have  oaths  in  courts  of 
justice  and  installing  men  into  ofHce.  An 
oath  is  a  religious  appeal  to  the  judge  of 
all  the  earth.  Shall  we  make  such  an  ap- 
lical  to  One  whom  we  do  not  acknowledge 
in  a  constitution? 

:>.  Without  some  such  Christian  amend- 
ment we  have  no  le^al  basis  for  the 
Christian  Sabbath,  Christian  marriage  and 
divorce.  Christian  education  or  any  of  our 
Christian  institutions.  Suppose  the  ques- 
tion of  these  institutions  could  in  some 
way  be  brought  before  the  supreme  court 
of  the   United   States    to   have  determined 


RK\'.   II.    H.   GEORGE,  D.D. 


the  constitution  will  be  so  amended  as 
to  recognize  these  facts,  or  else  one  after 
another   of    them    will   fllsappear. 

So  much  for  the  presumption  in  favor 
of  a  Christian  amendment.  Now  for  the 
National  Reform  i)latform: 

It  asks  that  three  fundamental  princi- 
ples of  Christianitv  be  recognized  in  the 
United   States  Constitution. 

1.  That  God  is  the  source  of  all  author- 
ity and   power  in  the  civil  government. 

2.  That  Jesus  Clirist  is  the  ruler  of  the 
nations. 

3.  That  the  law  of  God  Is  the  supreme 
standard  of  all   lesjislation. 

While  these  three  jiroposltions  present 
the  essential  features  of  Christianity,  they 
state  them  In  connection  with  our  con- 
stitution of  government.  Such  an  amend- 
ment forms  a  connecting  link  between  tin 
Christianity  we  believe  in,  and  are  proud 
of,  wdth  the  govertiment  of  the  country. 
It  translates  into  lecral  language  the  fact 
that  we  are  a  Christian  nation,  and 
short  of  some  such  an  amendment,  we 
have  nothing  constitutionally  to  show 
that  we  have  any  Christian  character. 


the  right  of  their  existence;  there  Is 
nothing  in  the  constitution,  as  it  stands, 
to  maintain  them.  They  might  be  taken 
from  us  from  the  lack  of  any  legal  basis. 
With  such  an  amendment  as  the  one  pro- 
posed they  can  be  preserved  to  us  con- 
stitu,tIonally.  If  we  are  not  willing  to 
surrender  all  such  Christian  Institutions 
logical  consistency  demands  that  we 
guarantee  them  by  constitutional  provi- 
sion. 

4  There  can  be  but  one  supreme  and 
universal  standard  of  legislation,  and  that 
must  be  the  law  that  God  has  revealed. 
We  now  decide  all  our  moral  question.'; 
such  :is  murder,  adultery,  theft,  profanity, 
rights  of  jiroperty.  etc.,  by  it.  Why  use 
it  and  not  acknowledge  it?  We  shoulc' 
radically  change  our  tiational  code  of 
ethics  if  we  are  unwilling  to  accept  the 
moral  law  as  the  supreme  standard  In  leg- 
islation. And  finally  the  thirteenth  amend- 
ment was  no  more  necessary  to  convert 
this  from  a  pro-slavery  to  an  anti-slavery 
Kovernment  than  is  the  Christian  amend- 
ment to  convert  it  from  a  secular  to  a 
Christian  government.

H'-ughton.  Mich..  July  liS.— tSpecial  to 
The  Herald.) — The  management  of  the 
fo-callcd  Stanton  mines,  a  group  of 
properties  including  the  Atlantic,  Wol- 
verine, Mohawk.  Baltic.  Champion.  Wi- 
nona and  Michigan  mines,  has  under 
advisement  the  construction  of  .i  smelter 
to  reduce  the  crude  mineral  turned  out 
by  the  .«tamp  mills.  Two  sites  are  sug- 
gested for  a  smelter,  one  at  the  n'oulh  of 
the  Salmon  Trout  river,  on  Lake  Su- 
jierior,  where  the  Atlantic  has  its  mill 
and  the  Baltic  is  building  one,  the  other 

on  Portage  Lake,  just  west  of  Houghton, 
v.here  the  old  Atlantic  mill  stands.  The 
latter  site  is  much  the  best,  and  a 
smelter  could  be  operated  there  without 
encountering  the  opposition  of  the  fe<l- 
eral  government,  which  put  a  stop  to 
milling,  five  years  ago.  because  of 
stamp  sand  shoaling  the  channel.  The 
tendency  is  for  all  of  the  big  mines  and 
imbportant  groups  of  smaller  mines  to 
build  their  own  smelters.  The  Calumet 
&  Hecla  begun  fifteen  years  ago,  and 
was  followed  by  "the  Bigelow-Lewi.ssohn 
group,  which  has  not  only  smelters,  but 
wire  and  rolling  mills  at  Dollar  Bay. 
The  Quincy  built  its  own  smelter  four 
iears  ago.  and  is  saving  money  by  doing 
its  own  refining. 

The  Trimountain  has  just  received  a 
35-drill  compressor,  which  filled  three 
large  freight  cars,  and  will  in.stall  the 
machine  at  once.  The  Elm  River  i.-> 
sinking  on  the  new  lode.  The  amygda- 
loid resembles  the  Baltic  in  color,  but  the 
copper  is  very  fine  and  none  too  plenti- 
ful. Better  things  are  .  hoped  with 
greater  depth. 
)  After  spending  fifteen  months  poking 
holes  into  a  large  tract  of  land  with  dia- 


mond drills,  the  Wyandot  people  found 
their  lode  by  accident  ten  days  ago.  A 
miner  started  to  sink  a  well,  near  his 
house,  and  sti-uck  the  lode  at  the  depth 
of  two  feet.  It  resembles  the  new  lode 
of  the  Elm  River  in  make-up  and  color, 
but  is  richer  in  fine  copper.  An  epidote 
seam  found  in  the  amygdaloid  is  being 
looked  for  both  north  and  south  of  the 
point  of  discovery.  Not  enough  work  has 
been  done  yet  to  determine  the  width 
of  the  lode. 

A  year's  time  may  be  required  to  re- 
pair the  damage  done  to  No.  2  shaft 
Htcia,  of  the  Calumet  &  Hecla.  by  the 
recent  fire.  The  hanging  wall '  of  the 
Calumet  conglomerate  is  always  trcach- 
eidus.  requiring  hea\y  timbering  and 
'  onstant  care  to  keep  in  order  undei 
normal  conditions.  Much  of  the  hang- 
ing has  fallen  into  the  shaft,  where  the 
timlier  was  burned.  The  fans  are  stit) 
w.irking,  sucking  foul  air  out  of  the 
mine,  l>ut  so  little  is  left  that  miners 
suffer  no  inconvenience.  The  Calumet 
(^  Hecla  has  about  100  new  dwelling 
houses  for  employes  under  construction, 
and  contemplates  erecting  an  additional 
100  this  season.  A  new  warehouse,  80  by 
;'.20  feet,  is  Ixdng  built,  and  a  large  addi- 
tion to  the  office  building  is  under  way. 

The  Franklin  has  installed  a  nc^'  and 
powerful  hoist  at  No.  .">  shaft  of  the  old 
Franklin  mine.  The  engine  is  cnpanle 
of  he  isting  from  the  extreme  possible 
depth  of  the  mine,  ."JMO  feet,  and  is  cap- 
able of  raising  440  tons  of  rock  per  work-

abling the  mine  to  increa.se  its  daily 
production  of  stamp  rock  by  125  to  150 
tons.  At  the  Franklin  Junior  a  large 
shaft-house  is  being  moved  1600  feet  to 
the  north  shaft,  and  an  engine  house, 
48  by  60,  has  just  been  completed  at 
the  shaft  on  the  Allouez  conglomerate. 
The  direct  hoist  bought  of  the  Tama- 
rack, which  mine  had  to  discard  ft  for 
heavier  machinery,  is  iieing  installed, 
and  is  capable  of  hoisting  from  a  depth 
of  5000  feet. 

The  Quincy  is  building  two  addition"

under  the  Stanton  management,  has  re- 
signed his  position  of  head  mining  cap-

pacity has  been  secured  the  Bailie  can 
readily  furnish  50  tons  of  stamp  rock 
daily— sufficient  to  feed  two  heads.

two  weeks  ago,  additional  effort  is  being 
made  in  every  department  of  labor,  with 
visit  of  President  Fay  ti  the  property 
.1  view  to  making  the  Trimountain  a 
tuoducei  at  the  earliest  ixissible  date. 
There  are  dividends  in  sight  in  the  rich 
rock  of  the  Trimountain.  and  share- 
i^olders  are  impatient  to  get  them. 

The  Calumet  &  Hecla  company  has 
bought  a  large  tract  of  pine  timber  in 
Chinnewa  county.  Mich..  225  miles  east 
of  the  mine,  for  $6;'.0,000.  Two  previous 
investments  in  Chi.opewa  county  timber 
in  as  many  years  .imounted  to  $232,000. 
The  company  also  has  an  eye  out  for 
available  tracts  of  pine  elsewhere.  TThe 
mines  of  the  Lake  Sunerior  conper  dis- 
trict use  very  neaily  100,000,000  feet  of 
timber  annuallv. 

The  exploratory  tunnel  being  driven 
from  tlie  eastern  sandstone  on  the  lands 
of  the  Old  Colony  c  impany  is  now  more 
than  1000  feet  in  length.  A  conglomerate 
of  some  promise  hj  s  just  been  cut.  On 
the  first  conglomerate  west  of  the  eastern 
sandstone  the  shaf :  is  now  down  about 
400  feet.  The  lode,  owing  to  its  proximity 
to  the  underlying  non-conformable  sand- 
stone, is  quite  irregular. 

The  management  of  the  Osceola  has  in 
:(mtemplation  adding  a  building  to  house 
four  modern  stamps  to  its  new  mill, 
which  was  finished  less  than  two  year.s 

Excavating  for  :he  new  mill  of  the 
.Mass  at  ogima.  011  Keweenaw  bay,  is 
nearly  finished. 

The  Copper  Range  company  has  levied 
m  assessment  of  $3  per  share,  amounting 
to  .$:?00.000.  for  development  of  the  cham- 
;)ion  mine,  just  .souta  of  the  Trimountain. 
which  is  all  that  its  rather  boastful 
name  implies  in  po  nt  of  brilliant  show- 
ing of  copper.  As  Ste.  Marie's  Canal 
Mineral  Land  comiany  owns  half  of  the 
Champion  and  mu.st  contribute  equally 
10  its  development  and  equipment,  the 
recent  assessment,  if  applied  exclusively 
to  the  mine,  will  give  $600,000  for  the 
.pening  of  the  property  and  building  of 
I  slamo  mill. 

The  $4  semi-annual  dividend  of  the 
Quincy  was  disappointing  to  many 
-hareholders,  as  it  was  $1  less  than  the 
dividend  of  la.st  winter  and  $2  less  than 
Lhe  dividend  of  one  year  ago.  In  explan- 
ation it  f^hould  be  said  that  the  Quincy  is 
loing  an  unprecedented  amount  of  de- 
velopment and  construction  work,  the 
management  wisely  pushing  new  work 
to  the  limit  in  a  period  of  large  profits. 
The  monev  now  being  diverted  from  the 
■arnings  for  betterments  and  enlarge- 
ments is  being  expended  with  discrimin- 
ation, as  will  become  apparent  within 
two  years,  in  largely  increased  produe- 
lion,   and  consequently  in  bigger  earu- 

'"c^'  J  Johnson,  ^vho  is  building  the 
sours  fr-.m  the  Copper  Pvango  railroad 
to  the  new  mines  on  the  south  range, 
•.vi'.l  nut  about  700  men  at  work  on  the 
job  within  the  nexi   two  weeks. 

The  Mineral  Ri  nge  extension  frorn 
Vewtonville  to  Mass  City  is  now  v.e 
ilong  toward  completion.  This  road  wi 
handle  rock  between  the  mine  and  mill 
of  the  Mass  company.  The  haul  is  an 
exceptionally  long  one.  but,  as  the  road 
is  being  well  bull:,  with  easy  grades, 
transportation  rates  will  be  low. 

The  Rhode  Island  is  running  nine 
drill"  six  in  No.  1  and  three  in  N  >.  - 
.haft'  The  company  is  building  a  no^^ 
machine  shop,  blacksmith  shop,  ware- 
house and  eight  dv.ellinp. 

The  Calumet  &  Hecla  has  recentb  let 
a  contract  for  the  largest  wheel  in  tlu 
world.  It  will  be  sK  feet  wide  and  sixij 
feet  in'-diameter,  u'lth  p"^kets  on  t^ 
inner  perimeter  to  elevate  the  ^^"f^S^;. 
or  stamp  sand  held  in  solution  on  ^^ate  . 
from  the  new  mill  to  the  launder  which 
will  take  it  1000  feet  or  so  into  Torcfi 
lake.  The  wheel  will  be  ^^aP^ble  of  ele- 
vating 2500  tons  of  sand  and  2,^00,000 
•-allons  of  water  dfily. 

The  Arcadian,  as  the  result  of  a  satis- 
factorv  mill  test  of  rock  fo^n  the  Mes- 
nard  epidote,  will  immediately  begm  the 
sinking  of  a  permanent  S-comparttnent 
shaft  on  that  lode.  The  railroad  will  be

LATEST  FACE. 
The  automobile  face  is  the  newest  ex- 
pression, and  it  is  seen  at  its  best  at 
Newport,  where  the  automobile  flour- 
i.shes,  says  the  New  York  Sun.  It  is  not 
the  haggard,  tense  expression  of  the 
bicycle  rider"s  visage,  but  it  is  a  con- 
sciously unconscioi  s  look  that  is  Inter- 
esting. The  women  "mobers"  smile  a 
little  as  they  flash  over  the  road,  and  the 
old  straight  ahead,  cold,  indifferent  gaze 
that  was  the  fashion  when  driving  be- 
hind a  horse  seems  to  be  relegated  lo 
the  past.  There  is  also  an  unconven- 
tionality  of  attire  adopted  for  the  horse- 
less carriage  that  u'ould  not  be  permis- 
sible as  a  formal  -arriage  dress.  The 
linen  crash  gowns  of  the  moment  are 
worn,  while  bright  bodices  of  linen  seem 
to  be  a  fad  with  the  women  moblsls. 
Alpine  hats  with  gay  bands  of  silk  give

a  racy  touch  to  some  of  the  costumes, 
and  the  girl  in  the  automobile  .seems 
typical  of  the  age.  There  Is  a  teacher  at 
Newport  whi)  gives  lessons  in  runnin.g 
the  automobile  who  will  probably  be- 
come as  famous  as  the  C(rlored  man  who 
a  few  Pe.TSons  ago  reaped  a  ri?h  harvest 
in  teaching  wheeling  when  th.it  was  at 
its  ln'ight.
