The party was met by Lieutenant Colonel Barry, adjutant general, and conducted from the train to the launclf captain and taKen to the pal ace at Calacanan, and arter breakfast r re driven through the city to the Aj un timiente. The party was closeted with. G. neral Otis for more than an hour; but the interview was decidedly unsatlsfac t ry, the commission having nothing defi r te to propose and being unempowered to negotiate terms. The commissioners brought .-communication direct from Agu neJdo asking for an urmistice, pend .ngntho decision of the Filipino congress ti? to what policy should be adopted. As t.fore. General Otis refused to entertain proposition. The commissioners, after aving the oity hall, accepted an invita ti n to visit the Oregon and the other r -,sels of the American fleet in the bay. rd they -were also granted permission to et o their families before returning. Manila, May 30. Major General Otis Lii, declined to recognize the rebels to the extent of agreeing to an armistice, but Ik has notified the American commanders t) refrain from aggressive action. Thus 1- is in a position to resume hostilities at env times. This will defeat any subter idyo to gain time, which would not be the c i-e if the general agreed to an armls t The Filipinos are so deceptive that 2 pie hate to credit with ond faith th ir latest overtures.

As a result maiiy of the natives the town and for several days the u a posts were doubled. In addition, the rktown and the Iris anchored in po t i ma commanding the mouth of the .Tarn. i.rr, where the attack -was expected to t.ih.e place, but it failed to ma.ter.akze 'able communication between Iloikr and olor, which has been Interrupted, has n resumed. n asWngton, May 20.

'T0RT0 BICAN" WELCOME How Kobbe Kxpedition Up the Rio (rntidc was Itecelved. Manila, May 39, 7:50 a. m. Colonel Keb l s exped tijn up the Rio Grande r.ver rr with no resistance except at the out fh ius of San Luis, where several hundred I p tos were entrenched on the banks of t s ream. The rebels retreated beyond C JaSw. and the .gunboats steamed ahead, c t e -vay training their Gatling guns up k the HittkH and dropping shells -wher-t t i -raMs appe d areahtosstsfislwxe; t r 'tns appeared on the shore.

After they had passed v from trees across the river distant harassed the 8ev rv. which was zaarrtatag b v arrow wooded road, from a hund"- i c-'-nth f -ars along vi-.ch the tre w were unable to see the war,- The members of one battalion j laid on their faces in the road for a quar ter of an hour trying to locate the rifle men and return their fire. Two Americans were wounded. The road wound close to thestream and was thickly settled. It was a picturesque march. Many groups of hundreds of natives were clustered under the trees of Jhj opposite banks displaying white shirts, towels, sheeto or anything white on poles. Some shouted welcome to the American soldiers, tout most of them maintained a sullen silence. An old man in a carriage met the troops two miles out of the town. He said: 'M have lived in England; I have told the people that the Americans are like the English and that they need not be afraid." Captain Grant, in command of the gun- f boats, landed before the troops arrived and met with a "Porto Itican" welcome. The natives, who had assembled on the shore, crowded about the Americans with ful some expressions of friendship, apparent ly half afraid that they would be massa cred. Captain Grant quickly distributed the men from the gunboat Lagunda de Bay to guard the town; ana the natives sent a messenger to tell the people who had taken refuge in the-swamps to return. Hundreds of the natives thereupon re turned timidly, a man with an improvised flag of truce flying from a bamboo pole preceding each party. A Capuchin priest, one of the few whom Filipinos had not imprisoned, was found at Candaba. He said it was useless to try to convince the natives that rthe Americans had not come to oppress them, as they believed their leaders, who had strongly impressed this belief upon them, and who have told stories of massacres, rapes and Filipino victories. The walls of the -towns were placarded with reports of the slaugh ter of Americans, hundreds of whom were said to have been taken prisoners. As soon as Majir Ivebbo reached San Luis the natives raided the insurgent rice stores. All day a stream of jilf-naked people emerged from the store houses, in me manner of ants, rushing to their homes with bags of rice on their heads. On Thursday night a body of rebels re turned to San Luis and burned part of the town. Lieutenant Cunnin-iam, with a signal-corps party engaged in running a telegraph line, was camped near the place. Major Kobbo sent the army guauuau Cavadonga thero and found the party to dav in the town. The Rio Grande, since Major Kobbo started, has beeen the highway for the exodus of the natives and today there is a continuous procession of thatched cascees. with white flags, drifting down the river and containing whole families of twenty to thirty persons, with their household goods and animals on board, Thousands of these beasts have passed the army gun boats. The Nebraska regiment marched from ,San Fernando to Calumpit today for a thirty days rest. The Tegiment numbers about three hundred weather beaten vet erans. Two of the companies are iuuD squads and their battered canteens and shiny clothes show unmistakable marks of rough campaigning. nBt the soldiers arohappy.

London. May 20.-The Filipino junta at Hong ICong has cabled to the London of fice of the Associated Prets sa!ng it is untrue that General Luna is wounded or has surrendered, contradicting the report that General Montenegro is dead, and an nouncing that the difficulty between Luna and Ma&cade is settled. The dispatch adds that the opinion prevails in Manila that the peace negotiations have failed because Maor General Otis demanded tho uncon ditional surrender of all arms as a prelim inary. This, It was further stated, was considered unnecessarily harsh, and it as announced that the Filipinos would continue to fight until their rights were recognized, and would appea to the Amer ican people to "help them obtain their natural and reasonable aspirations.'

Of the Newspaper Men With the Peace Congress, SOME LEAVE 1N DISGUST Germans Grumbling-Committees at The Hague, London, May 20 The Dally Telegraph correspondent at The Hague says: "The impenetratable secrecy of the proceedings of the conference has caused dissatisfac tion. The press representatives com plain that the information uireu'atel is inaccurate and misleading, and several delegates express unqualified disapproval of the methods adopted, whicn wo-ild be justifiable only were the implacable en emy of peace arbitration. The represent atives of several influential continental journals have resolved to leave immedi ately, and some have already gone." Berlin, May 20. The opening of the peace conference at The Hague created little attention here. The North Germa'n Gazette, on behalf of the government, on Thursday, congratulated the czar, who was styled as "faithful friend of our em peror," on the occasion of his birthday. The Liberal newspapers greeted the open ing of the conference with sympathetic editorials, but the Conservative and Agrarian press was either silent or treated the matter as bagatelle. The Voerwaerts reiterates tta view that the conference Is a Russian intrigue and claims it has ground for saying that Rus sia at the conference will propose a re duction ofthe number of regular troops, which the paper characterizes as a "dia bolical scheme" intended to bring about a league of the continental powers against Great Britain. The Hague, May 20. The second sittlnjj of the peace conferenca too place thi3 morning and lasted thirty-five minutes. Tlie president of the conf ej ence, Baron de Staal, read the raphes of the czer and Queen "Wilhelmlna to the le warns sent to them by the c-mJerence en Thursday. Thejiresident then addressed the delegates on tho subject 'jf the labors before them, and it was de.l-J not to pu.ilish tho speech. The president prjpossd the adoption of the arrangements for the committees, which was agreed to with out discussion. La. on de Slaal further proposed that, although the principle cf secrecy should oe maintained, communi cations might be t.-iadb through the pi ess bureau, subject to the app.-nal of the president. This was also adopted. At the conclusion of the conference to day M. de Staal, Sir Julian Pauncefote, the British ambassador at Washington land tho head of the British delegation, and the "United States ambassador at Berlin, Mr. Andrew D. AVsite, head of the American delegation, with several of the other chief delegates, returned to The Hague for lunch. But M. Bourgeois, formerly -premier of France and head of tho French delegation, ana almost an the second technical delegates who form parts of committees, remained at the "House in the "Woods" to draw up certain L-sts. They were occupied also with the organization of 'cjommittees. The American members of the commit tee are as follows: Messrs. White, Mahan and Crozier; laws of war, Messrs. "White, Newell, Mahan and Crozier; arbitration, Mesbrs-, "White, Low and 'Holls. The committees will meet for the first time on Tuesday. The eight points enum erated in Count Muravieff's circular for their consideration have been distributed among the committees. They are as fol lows: The disarmament committee will con sider: First, the limitation of expendi tures; second, the prohibition of new fire arms; third, the limitation of the use of explosives; fourth, prohibition of the use of submarine boats. Tho committee on the laws of warfare will discuss: Fifth, the application of the Geneva convention to naval warfare; sixth, the neutralization of vessels in an engagement while engaged in saving the shipwrecked during and after naval en gagements; seventh, the revision of the declaration of Brussels of 1S74 on the noti fications and customs of war; the com mittee on arbitration and mediation will deal with the eighth question of Count Muravicf's circular. The British members of the arbitration committee are Messrs. Pauncefote and Howard. Sir Julinn Pauncefote guve a dinner this evening to some of the dele gates. The proceedings today passed off with out any incident, only the president spoke, the others manifesting their approbation fcy slight, discreet murmurs. Several Gf the chief delegates are leaving The Hague for a few days .pendg the pre liminary work of the committees. Baron de Staal during the- course of the day received the following dispatch: 'The emperor be&s you to be the inter- I pretor to the conference of his sincere thanks and warmest wishes. My august master charges me to Impress upon yo.ir excellency how much his majesty ie touched by tho telegram addressed to him. (Signed) "MURAV1BFF." It was learned later hi the day that pi. de Staal placed the question of medi- durlng h!& speech today. The question of the laws of war rendering war as hu mane as possible by the extension of the regulations already existing was then touched upon by the president and he relegated the question of the reduction cf armaments to the third place. This icoi cates a modification ot the ordar in which the three points are placed the circular of the Russian rmmXer of fcrelgn af fairs. Count Murarieff. but it has the merit of correopoixWag more closely to the views at the delegates and it is now con sidered certain that mediation and arbi tration will -have the chief place in the work of the conference. Further, the opinion te uaammoae that the American and British delegates will take the meet baportunt psrt in the study of he ques tion.

President and' Mrs. McKinley, with the friends who ac companied tnem, reached Washington at o:30 p. m. today. The stay of twelve days at Hot Springs was one almost entirely of rest. The outing has been of great bene fit to the president and he resumes his official duties thoroughly refreshed and invigorated The party left Hot -Springs last night and today traveled slowly through the Shenandoah valley, rich in beautiful scenery 'and points of historic interest. Thirty-five years ago Mr. McKinley as assistant adjutant general on the staff of General Crook, marched down through this same valley, participating in the heavy fighting which occurred during Sheridan's famous raid. Today the pres ident went over this same ground and from the rear platform of the special train which carried him recalled with great distinctness the places which saw so much bloodshed. Though the citizens of various towns trough which they passed had but little warning of the pres ident's coming the roadways and stations were lined with people anxiojs to catch a glimpse of the chief of the naition or to warmly clasp his hand where brief stops were made. Men and women of different colors, some of the latter beai-ing babes In their arms. Republicans and Demo crats, "Union soldiers and ex-Confederates, joined ir the cheers and shouts of wel come.

MIGHTY Nice and Courteous Letter From Dr. McGifFert BUT IF IPS ALL THE SAME To the Brethren He Won't Leave the Church Yet Minneapolis, Minn., May 20. After two days of work the members of the Pres byterian general assembly took the after noon off today and traveled to St. Paul In company ith friends and families to the number of 900. McAllester college was In spected and hinch was served at the pa vilion on the shores of Lake Como. Some of the comissioners preferred the Minne-apolis-Colubus baseball game to the at tractions of St. Pau Perhaps it was the inspiration they received at McAllester college, which has paid off all but $6,000 of a debt of $112,000 within a year,. that made the commissioners applaud tonight when, in a large meeting at Westminster church, the Rev. Dr. John Boyd of Evans ton, 111., expressed his distrust of state education. Xr. Boyd is a member of the board of aid for colleges and academies. He asserted that the great body of the church had come to distrust ublic edu cation, hich In the west is every year be coming more and more secular. Dr. T. A. McGfffert, of the Union Theo logical seminar', by letter presented his compliments to the resbyterian general as sembly this morning and refused to com ply with Its request of last year. That request was that he should modify his at titude on doctrinal matters expressed in his "Christian Church in the Apostolic Age," or else withdraw from the church. Instead of modifying his views, he de clares that he Is in accord with Presby terian doctrine on all vital points and de clares that he cannot withdraw. The lan guage of the -Tetter Is so courteous that many of the conservatives in the assem bly joined the liberals in applauding. The committee on bills and overtures, Dr. "Wallace Radcliffe, chairman, will pass upbn the letter. Members of the commit tee admit that the letter is exactly what It should not be, except for its courtesy. But the spirit of the committee and of the who!e assembly is so fair that it is hard to say what will be done. There will be a careful consideration by the com mittee and a heated debate in the assem bly whatever the report. In the end the assembly will either re-assert its position of last year and let the matter drop, or else recommend the New York Presbytery to take up the question of expulsion of Dr. McGiffert, which means a heresy trial. The letter follows: "Xew York, May 15. 1S99. To the Gen eral Assembly of the Presbyterian church. "Dear Brethren At the meeting of the general assembly, held in May, HX-, action was taken in reference to a book entitled 4A History of Christianity in the Apostolic Age,' of which I am the authar, and wic communicated to me by the stated clerk under date of September 22, 1S33. "Waiving at this time all questions of constitutional right and order, I have thought It proper to loott upon the action in the light of friendly adv'ce frcm Chris tlon brethren, in which light, indeed. It would seem that it must lrive been look ed upon by those who joined In It. "Regarded thus, tne nr'lon evidently re quires no response from me, nor does tho assembly intimate in any way that the response was either expected or desired. But it is my wish to be goverened en tirely by the spirit of Christian frater nity, and I therefore take this opportun ity of informing the brethren gathered in the first general assembly since the ac tion was taken, what I havo felt my duty to be in view of the fraternal coun sel offered me. "Tho action of the assembly, as well as the overture from the presbytery of Pitts burg upon which that action was based, made it evident that many of my posi tions, together with the spirit and pur pose of my book as a whole, have been seriously misapprehended Such misappre hension I sincerely regret, and I wish here to emphatically repudiate the false con structions that have been placed upon my book In many quarters So far as my views are concerned, they ha've been and remain, as I believe, in accord wth the faith of the Presbyterian church, and of evangelical Christendom, in all vital and essentia matters, and I therefore cannot feel that it is my duty or even my right in justice to myself and my brethren and to the church of our Divine Lord and Master, in which I am an office-bearer, to withdraw from the ministry of the Pres fcytorian church. In taking this position, to which I am constrained by a profound sense of duty. I desire to ?ay tfiat I rec ognize gratefully the spirit of Christian kindness which animated those who join. od In the action of, the last assembly, and appreciate the devotion to the truth and the concern for the welfare of the church. "Praytng for the Messing of God upo the church universal and especially upon that branch of it wkhin which I was bom and bred, and whose interests I have most deeply at heart.

Cole, a local cattleman, recently purchased 100 acres of land m the contor of a huge pasture leased by some mn in Comanche county. Colo turned a largo number of cattle on this piece of ground which he purchased, and naturally, they crowded onto the pasture of the Comanche men. The latter drove them back, having vast bunches at paeturQ themselves, and a number of men continually watching their interests. This lead to tho contro versy, a t wnetner coie, as owner, was rights which are superior to those of the home men, who are merely leaser, yt who have pastures surrounding Cote pur chases. Force was threatened by both sides. The Comanche cattlemen have re tained Ex-District Judgo C "W. ElMa of this city to watch their interests, in the cvnt of a legal flght, whtlo Colo has em ployed G. M. Martin of this city, formerly law partner of Governor Barnes of Okla homa. Pasture and crop oondittaas here are perhaps better this pprias than for many years, at this particular time of the year. A tremendous rate fell Thursday night, and came at an opportune time.

JLY2. Lowell. lUil. p i-ii!liiij j Heaves I Give warning 01 Winter III! Ferdinand Peck-Tells-of His in That Behljr PLENTY OF ELB0WR00M Big Show Will 'be' Completed -Before Opening Day. New York, May 20. Ferdinand W. Peck, commissioner general of the United States to the Paris Exposition of 1900, reached New York on the American line steamer St. Louis today. He was accompanied by Mrs. Peck and J. H. McGibons, director of exploitation, of his staff. When asked about the results of his trip to Paris, Mr. Peck said: J'Durlng my brief stay in Paris much was accomplished for our American ex hibit In 1900. This Is the formative period of our task. The plans of all the United States buildings have been approved by the French authorities, though many changes ere made in them to conform to tho requirements of the French govern ment and to meet the limitations of our appropriation. Work upon these buildings will begin immediately. There will be five buildings in the main grounds and two in the Bois de Vincennes, the annex to the exposition, which will be made a most im portant part of the whole Our national pavilion will be the only expensive build ing we will construct. This'wiLl be on the bank of the Seine, alongside of the struc tures of about thirty other nations, with Austria on one side and Turkey on the other. Our other buildings will be an nexed to the main structure built by the French administration and will be for ex hibition purposes only. These will include annexes to the main agricultural build ing adjoining the American section, an annex to the maufacturers buKding in the Qulncences, and addition to the forestry building, -also to the merchant marine building, in which water transportation models will be exhibited, with our weather bureau, etc. "At Vincennes we will build a structure for American machinery in operation and a building for our life-saving service. We wO divide with the rench Exposition com pany the cost of the building for railroad exhibit and for automobiles. We secured a site upon which our bicycle manufac turers wll lerect a beautiful structure. The Bois de Vincennes is about six miles from the main grounds and will be very accessible by railroads, and by the Seine river, connecting with a tramway for one mile, -which latter route will be known as the American route, the boats and cars carrying the American flag I believe a very large proportion of the visitors to the exposition will go to Vincennes, as it will be made prominent' and most attractive and the trip, especially the river route, will be delightful. We secured over 0,000 square feet at Vincennes, far beyond our sexpectations. We also added to our agri cultural space and 20 per cent of our wall area for fine arts, besides retaining the privi'ege of exhibiting sculpture through out all our space. By the courtesy of Ger many and Switzerland we also added con siderable to our mining section. "M. Picard, the French commissioner general, authorized me at our final Inter view on Friday, the 12th, to state that everything would be ready ahead of time and that in some buildings installations could be made next August. The Iron structural work of all buildings is prac tically in place." "Did you find the French officials cor dial In your relations with them?" "Thej' could not have been more so, from President Loubet, who is a charming and able man and most friendly to our nation, to architects and subordinates of the ex osltlon management. This was illustrated in the incident of M. Picard the head of the exposition, being personally present when the site of the United States build ing was formally turned over to us. He had not honored any similar occasion be fore, though many of the foreign nations have secured their sites. "The new minister of commerce, who is at the head of the governmental depart ment, representing the republic In Its re lation to the exposition, was most friendly and showed every consideration for our wants. MM. Delauney-Belleville, the di rector of exploitation, Is the practical man of the exposition. He is most able, prompt and fair and his courage and ready de cisions remind us constantly of the meth ods of the typical American business man. He has to deal with the representatives of fifty-one nations and must often say 'No,' but always with a good reason. One of tho most helpful to us of the officials was XL Krantz, who was the French com missioner to our Columbian Exposition in 1S93, since which time he has been in pub lic office. He was selected minister of pub lic works last fall. I had an appointment with him ten days ago, from which he was suddenly sommoned to the session of the chamber of deputies, and to his great surprise he was made minister of war a few minutes later. I believe he wIR re store entire confidence In the French war department, and that XL Krantz will prove the coming man of France." Mr. Peck said regarding the exposition work on this side that he has been in stant touch with his heads of departments in his absence and wbs confident that the situation was" satisfactory, notwithstand ing the many difficulties Involved in se lecting exhibits over sneb a vast expanse of country, In so many cities, and to sat isfy exhibitors; a task which, owing to their comparatively small area, does not eppy to the other great nations.

My wife has been a sufferer from Whites for many months. She had severe headaches and pains in the back, ac companied with dizziness or fainting spells, until she would fall on the floor and have to go to bed. Nothing relieved her until we tried Wine of Cardui. That made her 100 per cent better. W. G. Medley. l&EUtEE "When a woman grows pale, languid, dizzy and hysterical when suffering is written plainly on her face it is not difficult to trace the cause. Usually it b that offensive and debilitating disease known as Leucorrhoea or whites. There are so many things which cause this "female trouble" that very few women escape it at some period of their lives. Doctors treat it locally. Sometimes they help a little. Often their treatment dots no good whatever. There b really but one cure but one single medicine which never fails to relieve. It Is Wine of Cardui. In ordinary cases, complete restoration of the womanly organ to perfect health follows its use.

Our colors are the best ob tainable. Our imprint is the stamp ot superiority. Price should not be the only consideration. If you catch the eye you catch the world. Let the public know what you have to sell. Good printing always com mands attention. Printing, like clothes, should be made to fit you. We are not the only printers, but equal to the best. Good printing means revenue; poor printing, expense. If you have the idea" we can display" it for you. Printing is often an index to the merit of an advertiser. "The apparel oft proclaims the man. Same with printing. To increase your business printer's ink is the best stimu lant. Cheapness is not the merit the finished work must tell the tale. No printing deserves a higher price than what it re turns. A good design is half the battle if well executed, the other half. How shall I advertise? Let us know what you sell and we will help you. "The eternal fitness of things" applies to design more than anything else. "Don't judge by appear ances" is obsolete. Appear ances count for everything in printing. t i Let Us Do j Your Work WE WOULD LIKE TO DO Printing. Should you desire a sample of our work, we need only say that we do 30 per cent of all the Job Printing; done In. this city for our merchantBijjj THE REASON WHY Is because oi the Quality AND Price. AGLE PRINT ..OF COURSE Good printing is not U9C gaxil7 high priced. Cheaj printing is not necessarily poor printing. Good raar chincry is one of the princi pal features. The purchase of materia) in car Jots direct irom the mills is the greatest factor in the Eagle being able tc do GOOD PRINTING CHEAP.

The only preparation known to science which really cares Lost Manhood is 'CALTHOS," the marvelous French remedy discovered by Prof. Jules Laborde. It is controlled in this country by The Von Mohl Company, of 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, as anyone who is acquainted in that city will testify. The Von Mohl Company invites all men suffering from Lost Manhood, Spermatorrhoea, Varicocele, Small Parts or Weakness of any nature in the Nerves or Sexual Organs, 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 sufferers will find new vigor in their organs, new force in their muscles, new blood in their veins, new ambition, and rapid progress toward the buoyant feelings and sensa tions of younger days. This liberal free offer is jrenuine. There is no swind D. or Deposit Scheme connected with it. The five davs' treatment is sent by sealed mail to all on request, wrapped in a plain package, and full printed instructions accompany the medicine, so that each patient becomes his own doctor and cures himself at home. It doesn't make any difference what caused the weak ness whether bad habits in youth, or excess, or over work, or business troubles. "CALTHOS" will effect a matter what big name the disease may be called by doctors. either from the local and wagon trade or The Von Mohl Company treats all correspondence ia from the straignt car llne There was perfect confidence.

The local hog market yesterday was quotable as weak with a light line of re ceipts and the quality generally common. All the barkets, both live stock and pro visions, ruled off yesterday, the provis ion pit weakening from an estimated large volume of live hogs on Monday and scattered selling- by packers. The live stock centers all reported a falling off in prices and the local market simply ac cepted the prevailing conditions every where. It was a light day on the local market, there beinsr few hoes received. 'wagon hogs were mostly of a common Sade and nothing interesting. The av eiage weight of the car hogs was low, tt being only 194 pounds, against 234 Fri day and 219 Thursday. The offered swine stock was light in weight and poor in quality. There were no well filled or fat hogs on sale, and what were marketed were disposed of at prices all they were (worth. The pens were cleaned up, how ever, and all the offerings sold, and at the 'best prices possible, considering the Iruling conditions everywhere. It was a light day, tout the market was In line with other markets and the sales were fully up to the grade of the hogs offered. REPRESENTATIVE SALES. Dock. Av Wt. Price.

The several traveling salesmen of the local house of the Jacob Dold Packing company were in at headquarters yes terday, and all report a very satisfactory week's business. The staple cuts of the Dold house are always prime and sell on Iheir merits, while the several special ties which are exclusively turned out from this plant aro known in the trade as of a high grade and quick and ready sellers. The "Dewey" ham sausage. Imperial State hams, "White Clover Leaf" lard and several other special brands of abat toir products have long ago asserted and demonstrated their intrinsic worth. The past week has been a heavy one and yesterday was unusually active for ship ments for the closing day of the week. The express business was heavy, as was also the straight car shipments, and all departments turned out a large line of produce for shipment. Mr. Chasi. H.

Following are some extracts from recent bulletins Issued by the Agricultural Ex periment station at Stillwater. O. T.. which will be of special interest to stock growers and feeders of Oklahoma: A 5-year-old Jersey Duroc sow at ine Oklahoma Experiment Station made gain of 195 pounds in stx weeks, an average of S.3 pounds dally. During tsis time she was fed 706 pounds of Kaffir meal, making a gain of one pound for each 5 24 poinds fed. In 9J nays followlnr she mane a gain of CO poinds. reaching a weight of 850 pounds. This is a daily cain of a tittle les than two pounds. Two Shropshire Iambs made a gain of 30 pounds in fonr weeks, eating two pounds each daily of Kaffir meal, aside from hay. One of these Iambs was quite fat at the beginning of the trial, and made a gain of only 10 pounds in second period of seven weeks. Three grade wethers. Local and long distance Telephone. 434. C. B.

They ate 237 pounds of Kaffir grain. Sheep digest un ground Kaff .r gram better than do horses, cattle or hogs. Trials at the station tend to confirm the conclusions announced from two or three southern stations, that planting peanuts, sweet potatoes, cowpeas or soy beans and allowing pigs to harvest the crop will be found a profitable practice. Peanuts, cow peas and soy beans are highis nutri tious, well adapted for making muscle as well as fat. The sweet potato Is less valuable, pound for pound, but a good yield can be secured at small cost. Pigs can harvest either crop more cnlefly than can man. There is possible danger from early frost in the case of sweet pota toes. With cow peas It seems best to turn tho pigs in the lot before the peas are fully ripe. Feeding some grain in connection with either of these self-harvested crops'' usually will increase the profit. The great value of wheat as pas turage for pigs is recognized by many. Some have found good results from pas turing early sown oats. The best sum mer pig pasture for pigs in Oklahoma is alfalfa. Where this is not available sor ghum, thickly sown, will be found desira ble. The fairly matured sorghum stalks make excellent hog food In the fall. They .will be eaten somewhat readily even in winter. Illustrations of the need of several trials or a considerable number of animals fed for several weeks if safe conclusions are to be drawn from feeding experiments have been abundant at the station during the past winter. Careful selection of fig ures may make widely different results from different parts of such an experi ment. Ok two steers carefully selected, with reference to supposed feeding quali ties, similarity of breeding, form and age, pne gained 430 pounds, the other 335 pounds, with like feeding. Of another pair the one believed the 'better except in size gained 305 pounds, while his mate gained 430 pounds with like feeding. The poorest formed steer In the bunch of nine made as much gain as the best. He ate more and is worth less per pound. A half Jer sey steer calf, although not showing dis tinct symptoms of illness, gained only 10 pounds in four weeks; in the next four weeks gaining 110 pounds; in the next four propping to 60 pounds gain; in the next three 65, pounds; in the next one making no gain. From one period of three weeks we might concude that four pounds of cotton seed daily kept the calf out of condition; from the next three weeks, that giving this 'much as a part of grain ration caused great gains; from the next three weeks, that it is practically as well to feed no grain but Kaffir meal.

The Evenins Post says: Each Third avenue cable car, on Its run from Harlem to tho postoffice, causes to leap from its path a. string of some 4,009 workmen, who are engaged ia putting down the new electrical power system. As the cars run at Intervals of only a few minutes, the workmen epend as much time dodging fenders as they do on the construction of the road. Watch men warn them of the car's approach, and the bosses drive them to their work when the cars have! -passed. All Is appar ent confusion. With the roar of the ele vated trains above them, the rattle of tho tratHc in the streets, the shouts of team sters, and tho continual clang-clang of the motornfen's gong. It is not to be wondered at the warning cry of the watchers is sqmetimes lost to them. "Down to-w-n, up!" hoarsely shouts the leather-lunged watcher, as a south-bound car approaches, and the men struggle out of tho excavations under the tracks."deftly leaping from Ironwork to stone with a skill born of constant practice. Each usually manages to clear the head of the car as it rolls over the skeleton track. Sometimes they hesitate, and are "pinch ed." (Last week one laborer was struck by a car, thrown under the wheels of an other, and n-ortally Injured. It si nio pens often that some of the men are too deep down to get out. These crouch low in the excavations, and let the ear iass over them, hugging the side of the hole farth est away from the track, as they wait for the car to squeeze by them. Barely has It passed when the bot?se3" urge them to their toil in language more forcible than elegant. North-bound cars are hailed by the watchers with shouts of "Up t-o-w-n, up!" and -the same activity Is manifested on the other track. Down in Park 'aw. where the tracks are close tegothsr. the Htorars digging between them do not :ry t get out. and at the warning cry they stand erect between the two sets of rails with their heads cloie to tho car trucks and the wheels. The passing cars, however, are not the least source of danger to tho men under tho pavement. The trafllc in the streets is constantly passing close to the holes. Watchmen with red flags wave astde the unwiedy trucks and heavy horses and drive back the more active delivery rigs; but often a careless driver In too" much haste get3 closer to tho edge, and In plunges horse and all. If a laborer hap pens to be under the foundered team, he is likely to get seriously hurt. So often did the horses of the Dry Dock railroad fall into tho excavations along tho track, that now they are unhooked at the Junc tion of Chatham Square and East Broad way, and tho cars coupled to the Third avenue cars, and pulled down to tho po&t offlce loop and back. At noontimo the firemen blow their whistles, the laborers drop their tooto, and squat on the curb for lunch. Ham sand wicho. a. great piece of pic. and a cup of black coffee usually constitute the Ameri can's meal. The foreigners nibble on rye bread, cheese, and long piocpfl of red bologna. After the meal Is finished, tho plpo and the cigarette are lit, and resting In all manner of attitudes the cosmoooa tan crew strikes up conversation In a Jargon. Some of the men go fast to sleep on the pavement, with their bond propped against a pillar of the elevated railroad or a convenient pile of stones. At 1 o'clock the whittles of the bowes bring all hands back to work, and they resume their occupation of dodging cable cars and working when they get a chance. They stop for the day at 6 o'clock. The men on th construction work are divided into gangs of common laborers, breaking the pavement; rock-cutters and masons, carpenters .to brace the holes with atout beanv; Iron-worker, and. last of all. the "pavers." Theae gangs follow each other ta the order named. The meet are of nearly- all aailooaUtie, There are Irishmen. Ttauana, negro. Poles. Hon garians and the Americans. Most of tho laborers are "picked off tha enrh." Others are thv regular employes. The contrac tors get the rest from the district leader. The work te hard and attended with great personal zifk. The common labor ers are seldom paid leas than JLM a day: tho rock-cotters and bracrs" get li.75, and the Iron-workers receive as high aa 13-25.

Fireman of the Cruiser Baltimore Tells Why, FIVE HUNDRED SAILORS Quit the Manila Service March. in C JPromme of Sedgwick, -who went into tha IT. S. navy service three years aso and was v.-ith l)ewey at the biff light in Ma nila "bay one year ago as nreman on the cruiser Baltimore, came in yesterday, hav ing left Manila on the 23d of March. His tme of enlistment had expired. He doesn't tike -Dewey. "There were 500 of us who left in March," he said. "Do you suppose we would have auk if we had thought well of th5 commander. I guess tie must have reciprocated our feeling, for he wouldn't allow us to come to San Francisco and .across land home. He wouldn't O. Iv. our transportation overland from San Fran cesco and a lot of us wanted to come that way. He made us come away around by the Suez canal and Xew York City just because he happened to have enough room on the transport at that time. He could as easily have sent up by San Francisco, and It would have accommodated us. Of course there was nothing so very hateful abouC that, "but it snowed you the diepo s.tion of the man and you can see how a Ijt of men could get to disliking him. Then another thing: Most of us had been doing over-time. Our time had expired long before, but we stayed so that they could get experienced men to replace us, and when wo did quit, Dewey didn't al low the boy who remained, rating in the service in filing the 500 vacancies. He allowed men who !had never been to sea before to be put in our places and over men wfio had fceen out a year. Do you s appose a lot of men doing the hard work in the coal bins and boiler rooms and en gine rooms would like a man for that kind of disregard. How long would a pub 3 c man in America, dealing with laboring men in any capacity, last showing that sort of disregard for their service? Don't understand me to be knocTUng on Dewey. I'm not doing that. Hes got to be the Mggest man in the world, according to newspaper alk. But a hero to all the world is hardly ever a hero to the man who -waits on him and is commanded per sonally by him. Don't you see how you would learn to dtelike a man when he is of a' different disposition from your own and you've got to swallow his peculiar personal characteristics day after day. He is In command and there is not many mpnunlike' yourself who can run their ideas over you and still maintain your re spect. "Well, we didn't like Dewey and that's the reason wo left. "We didn't think ho treated us rjght. Captain Dyer of the Baltimore, is going to quit." "Did you see the Manila tight?" "Yes. "We went into the harbor that morning and cast the figure eight in front of the Spanish fleet, getting nearer all the time. After an (hour It was reported that -ve were short of ammunition and thatls nhynve sailed out before finishing. Oh, z-.r, we didn't go out on purpose to get breakfast "We were a little afraid to go in and any man who says he wasn't 13 a liar, that's all. And we wouldn't have cjuit just for breakfast when we'd got to lick that Spanish fleet. We'd have liked to ooiuq clear, home when those SpanLsh shells came thundering square on the Bal timore. But when we got outside and iViund we had plenty of ammunition, we -wont hack and finished the job. "Well, we ielt pood because the fight was over, but the first news we had that the world thought We had done anything so very h!g was obtained from a copy of the Eagle sent me by the cashier of the bank at Sedgwick City."

The five great soloists are undoubt edly the best attraction that ever appeared before a "Wichita audience ,and no where can there be found a chorus of better promise than the 100 wel ldrilled voices that are to support them in the two great oratorios, "The Messiah" and "The Crea tion." Aside from Madame Bishop's de served renown as a lyrical singer, she Is said to be the best gowned woman on the concert stage. "While this fact does not add to her worth as a musician, yet the ladies will be interested to know that the artistic effect of her work will be en hanced by her handsome gowns. Miss Theodora Morgan, a cousin and guest of Miss Dora Wood, Is a violinist of rare acquirements. At the Hutchinson Jubilee she was the recipient of many com pliments from those who are authority in matters musical. Miss Morgan will play in the orchestra for the May Festival, Mai 31-31, June 1. The High School Chorus, which achiev ed such success In the "Holy City," last vear. will nresent another interesting car- tata at the Auditorium Friday night "Joan of Arc" Is not only of great histor ical ineerest, but is of great value mu sically. This cantata has been the prin cipal work of the chorus during the pres ent year, and all interested in music in the public schools should take this op portunity not only of hearing a good mulcal work, but also of encouraging these young people In a study which is of the greatest value to them. The solos have -been carefully prepared and will be I sung in a manner creditable t- much old er people. Bemember the tine, Friday evening; the place, Auditorium. Charles "W.

Best of all is the perfect purity of his enuncia tion, every -word being as Intelligible as every note a great comfort to the audi ence, who like to know what a man is singing about. Mr. Clark's fine declama tion of tho "Pagliacci" prologue woke the audience to something like enthusiasm.

Mr. Carl Gore found the stamps buried in a manure pile at the home of Mr Joe Girty, on South Topeka avenue, yesterday morning. He took the stamps to the postoffice and turned them over to Assistant Postmaster Jewett. Mr. Jew ett and Mr. McCoy counted the stamps and 'found that there were 9,000 of them, arranged as they came from the depart ment in sheets of 1.000 each. About half of them were spoiled so that it will be impossible to use them. The stamps were tied up in a paper which had on it the print of the Cyclone store, this city.

The damage suit of C. B. Ludlum against the -St Louis and San Francisco Railway company occupied two days in the district court, going to the jury late yesterday afternoon. The jury had not reached a verdict at 5 o'clock and Judge Dale order ed them to report with a sealed verdict Monday morning at 9 o'clock, provided they succeeded in reaching a verdict at all. Mr. Ludlum is sueing the railroad for $2,445 for the alleged burning of some of his property, consisting or 300 cottonwood trees, 235 rode of hedge, ten apple trees and ten tons of hay. This was in 1S91. The suit was tried, soon after the damage occurred, in the district court, under Judge Reed, and Mr. Ludlum secured a verdict for $300. The railroad company appealed the case to the court of common pleas, and it was sent to the appellate court, where the case was reversed and sent back for a new trial. The case has been so stubbornly fought by both parties that the interest in it has been augmented and the verdict will be watched with con siderable anxiety .especially by the plain tiff, who is by this time responsible for an amount of costs equal, almost, to the claim he has asked for, should the verdict be against him.

JUDGE PIATT HELPED 31 a do a Good Hand Assisting Train men to Care for fMrawburries, Judge Piatt returned yesterday from a trip to Joplin, Mo. The train he re.irned on was loaded -with strawberries, delaying it at several points. Mr. Piatt andother passengers had to get off several times and assist in unloading and taking care of the fruit, in order to expedite matters. The train finally got into Wichita with three full car loads of strawberries, which; was the greatest shipment ever received at this place. Judge Piatt says the ship ments of fruit from southern Missouri is simply wonderful. Nearly every train Is delayed and the capacity of the railroads Is taxed to take care of the fruit business. IT CAN'T BE DONE. Xo One Can Remain Well. Xo Chronic Disease Can Re Cared Unless the Stomach Is First Made Strong and Vigorous. This is plain, because every organ in the body depends on the stomach for Its nour ishment 2Cerve, bone, sinew, blood are made from the food which the stomach converts to our use. How useless to treat disease with this, that and the other remedy and neglect the most important of all. the stomach. The earliest symptoms of indigestion are sour risings, bad taste in the mouth, gas in stomach and bowels, palpitation, all gone feeling-, faintness, headaches, consti pation; later comes losa of flesh, consump tion, liver and heart trouble, kidney dis eases, nervous prostration, all of which are the indirect result of poor nutrition. Any person suffering: from Indigestion should make it a practice to take nfter each meal one of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab lets, allowing It to dissolve in the mouth and thus mingle with the saliva and enter the stomach In the most natural way. These, tablets are highly recommended by Dr. Jennison, because they are composed of the natural digestive acids and fruit essences which assist the stomach in di gesting all wholesome food before it has time to ferment and sour.

Bruce Griffith, of the Reformed church of this city, has been honored by an Invitation to deliver the baccalaureate address before the graduating class of the Lyons High school, -which will occur on the 2Sth of the month, in the First M. E. church of that city. In the Eagle's issue of May 14 was a brief mention of the fact that a new en terprise was in contemplation, the build ing of the Dakota, Wichita and Gulf The article has been widely copied, dis cussed and commented upon by the people and the newspapers all along the pro posed line. Mr. Cole has received a num ber of letters urging him to push the en terprise until the road is a reality. Not only here in the west has the talk been indulged, but prominent railroad men in the east have a good word for the enter prise. Below is what a leading railroad man of Ohio, in a letter to Mr. Cole, has to say of the road. His name is withheld by request: Mt. Vernon, Ohio, May 15. Charles E. Cole, Esq., Wichita, Kan. Dear Sir Your esteemed favor of the 13th inst. to hand and contents fully noted, for which I hasten to reply before going away, as I expect to leave for Pitts burg, Pa., on noon train. I notice by the Engineering Ne-ws Jour nal that there has been a great many new railroads incorporated in the west ern country ,of which of course I take more or less Interest in, but after looking over the route of the Dakota, Wichita and Gulf railway on a United States map 1 have in my office, it strikes me that it is one of the most feasible projects that I have looked into in a long time. In fact, Kansas, Oklahoma and Nebraska are in grtat need of a railroad to the north and south ,and the connections ycu will make -with other great railroads to the north, northwest and east, as well as points to the south, southeast and west, will make your road a great feeder for the most of them and an immense territory to draw from. I cannot understand why such a project has not been taken up and a railroad built long ago through this section, as I understand it would pass through one of the greatest agricultural districts in the west; at least through the great states of Kansas, Okkihoma and Nebraska, or in other words, two states and one terri tory. Have you organized and Incorporated this new line, or do you expect to run your preliminary survey first? There is plenty of idle capital in the east seeking good investments, such as I think you have In the Dakota, Wichita and Gulf railroad, but you must remem ber there is a great deal In arranging your preliminary matters before yourroad can be financed. That is the most im portant thing of all. If you have not surveyed your road and located it, that should be done without delay, and have your maps, plats and pro files made out in good shape, secure what rights-of-way and real estate you require for roadbed, depots and freight yards, stock pens, etc., which you will be re quired to have in order to finance your bonds, which, you see, means a great deal of work before you are ready to talk to capitalists. And while this work is going on you will want some good man at work prepar- Ing the prospectus of the road, which should be done in good shape Kindly let me hear from you soon and advise me how far you have gone in this new undertaking Possibly I could be of some service to you after while, provid ing I can unload some matters I now have on hand.

It's characteristic of some kind of second nature (from fcrce of habit, of course), to exaggerate, make misrepresentations, mark goods at an unreasonable high figure in order to get to mark down for special fake sales, special scheme bargain days and limit purchasers to make believe they're giv ing genuine bargains. We have always advised the public to shun such houses. It stands to reason that they're either robbing you at their first and regular prices or that their special is a rank fake.

"Pickles" was only a dog, belonging ito Jimmy Docknll, but during his short career on th's earth he had en deared himself to all. It is solemnly averred by Mr. Blazer (and who would doubt the word of a bibliopole) thai as a mark of respect the immense offlcea of the American Book concern in Chicago were closed for a day and H. M. Skinner, the poet laureate, was moved to perpetrate the following eulogy, a hand-illumined copy of which has been sent to every bibliopole in the country: No dog to love, none to caress; How can we ever our sorrow express? PicWes defunct! dead as a nail! Gone is the bark and the wag of his tail! Tears fail Hke rain; wha-t should obstruct Functions of nasal and lachrymal duct? Pardon this eep vain did we cry, "Bon't do it. Pickles, Oh Pickles don't die." Useless our tears, let us be glad Pickles was never ill humored or mad.

One of the most delightful socfnl func tions of the year was the annual spring reception given by the Young Men's Christian association Friday evening at their rooms on North Main street. They were assisted by ithe Ladies 'Auxiliary, a department recently organized in this city and which has been of inestimable benefit to the organization, both in a so cial and religious way. The rooms of the association were most appropriately and beautifully decorated for the occasion with a profusion of flowers and red, whit and blue bunting. In the parlor the guests were entertained and amused by numerous games, chief among which was parlor croquet. The gymnasium was thrown open and a large crowd was en tertained in that department, as well as in the lecture room. When the big rain came up the. crowd, unable to get hom&, contented themselves to remain until late in the night, and the time was even more generally and richly enjoyed on account of the copious rain. This reception, and the association's manner of entertaining, added much to the interest in association. which the people of the city should feel constrained to assist in a liberal way.

Obstinate sores and ulcers are a sure sign that the entire circulation is in a depraved condition. They are a severe drain upon the system, and are con stantly sapping away the vitality. In every cse the poison must be elimi nated from the blood, and no amount of external treatment can have any effect. Mr. L. J. Clark, of Orange Court house, Ta., writes "For six years I hud an obstinatf, running ulcer on my ankle, which at times caused me Intense snflering. I was so disabled for long -while that I was wholly unfit for busi ness. One of the best doctors trealedin? ?cn stantly. but did me no good. I then tried va rious blood remedies, srtthout the least bene fit. S.S.S.tt&s so high ly recommended that I concluded to try it, and the effect was won derful. Jt swined to get richt at the seat of the dUe-tse and foree the po.jon .:rt. and! was soon completely cured. Swift's Specific drives out every trace of impurity in the blood, and in this way cures permanently the most obsti nate, deep-se3ted sore or ulcer. It is the only blood remedy guaranteed purely vegetable.

In the beginning there was some who were inclined to form an objectionable opinion of him. and premature judgment was passed upon him by others: but all who attended the court and watched the man ner in which business was dispatched, will acquiesce in the saying: That he is well posted in law; that he is second to no man on the bench here in this territory, in his acquaintance with, the legal procedure; that he is affable, loglca? and possessed of such a disposition as to win the ad miration of all who have business before him. Following are the criminal cases of which final dispatch was made: Territorial George "ft". Harris, forgery, dismissed; Louis Garrett, forgery, guilty, one year; Charles Grimstead. forgerv, plea guilty, one year; Louis Garrett, forgery, nnle (two cases). Federal "William Lee, resisting officer, dl'mied; C B. Thompson, defrauding pit office, dismissed; Mildred Maon, f-audulently obtaining pension, dismissed; "U'a'ter "White, selling whiskey to Indians, di'nni.ed; Bd Coleman, same, dismissed.

Some time ago my husband was taken down wjth lung fever. It came on him with a chill in tne. nlght. It happened I had a supply of med-cme in the house at the time I rubbed -his chest and back with the Radwa"s Ready Relief. I gae him a teaspoonful m a little hot water to drink, to help warm and stimulate him, and in about half an hour three of the Radway's Pills. By the time the doctor came the next morning he was much better. Tne doctor wanted to know what I had been doing. I told him. He said that was good, that they were good medicines. Another case I had was with my little nephew that was staying with me. He was takesi with the croup. I rubbed his chest, throat and back with the Ready Relief, gave him doses about an hour apart, followed it by a dose of pills. By the next day he was. about all right. I have been using this medicine, with my family and my neighbors, for about 3) years, and never knew it to fall, when the directions were carefully fol lowed. I would feel gratefully obliged to jou to please forward me 'False and True.' one of your publications, for which I inclose stamp, for I absolutely need It, at once, if you please.

"-v.. i--- T i 'ix&fc fflHSefoita Hails gagfe; Jfcraflas tforrniwcr, lfen21, 1899 INk Kansas Social Science Tcacration, fleeting of the Federated Clubs of Okla homa and Indian Territories Assem bled at Norman. The visit, to the beautiful little city of Norman was a delight to the Kansas rep resentatives. From the time we l2ft Ar kansas City until we reached Norman we realized more and more the fa.r land into which we were passing. To change a wil derness of prairie to a rose garden hedged about with vines and trees, with but seven yeers of time behind them, is a work never before accompl'-sned by a P oneer people. This and vastly more has fceen dbne by these people of Oklahorra. At Perry we were joined by the ladies of the Tuesday Afternoon club; at Orlando by the ladies from Stillwater. From Guth r 8 and Oklahoma City came large com panies, until we were holding a-receptlon f-om car to car, meeting old friends and 2 1 w. There were many familiar names t mong these ladies many wno had spent j irs in Kansas, but are now enthusiastic r- :dents of Oklahoma. Among them were Mis. F. K. Brooks, wife of the bishop of t two territories; Mrs. J. V. Admire, Mrs. Hughes, a sister of Mrs. Noble L. Prentfe: Mrs. A. C. Scot. Mrs. Selwy-. Dmglas, Mrs. James Carter, Mrs. J. IL Parker'and Mrs. T. H. Chambers. At Xorman we were received wkh gen trous hospitality. The ladies of the Co terie -club had interested the women of the c ty, and each vied, with the other in gracious courtesy. The meetings of the convention, held in tho Presbyterian church, were presided over foy Mrs. Selwy n Douglas with grace md dignity. Mrs. Douglas has been the moving power in the formation of this lion of clubs.and has given-much time, thought and financial aid to the work of tiie year. At the opening session Mrs. A. H. Van Vleot of Xorman, in a felicitous manner, bade the ladies welcome. Among other good thing she said: "It seems fitting that the first meetlng"of this foody whose interests and aims are so largely educa tional, should e held in Norman where s located the head of the educational sys tem in Oklahoma, which many, with pro I'hetic eye, tee as the future head of the ideational system of the two territories, hen united, forming a glorious new star ,n the constellationof the union the proud ite of Oklahoma. our ty is often favored with conventions r at this one is unique in that all is in the inlB of women; all the work is planned ind executed by them alone; here femi ninity in every place rules, and is ruled w.th equal grace. j close 1 y adopting, to suit the occasion, the -.lords of Shakespeare., the immortal one: "Ladies, you are welcome to this place, it must be shown in other ways than words, "lcrefore I scant this breathiag cour- y.' Mrs. P. E. Rickey of El Reno, made a 'PPi' response to this welcome, begin--i ig with Longfellow's words, "His heart Has in his work .and the heart giveth r'race into every rrt," thei, epltom .zing the work accomplished by club women, she paid a tribute to the inspira- m which Mrs. Douglas has given to 'ho work this year. In her annual address Mrs. Douglas told of the splendfcl work of the year, show in? the impetus given both to literary and -durational lines. Sne reported having visited fifteen of the clubs of the federation and especially dwelt e i the co-ordination wfifch had made .this w rk possible. She reported that the number of clubs in the federation had re than doubled within the year nd, secretary's report sh6wed the folio w 'ig twenty-one clubs now "federated: Piilomathea, Oklahoma City, O.

The reports of the various clubs but con firm the reports from every state in the Union and show the development and in creasing Interest in the work which this movement is bringing about. Some lively force is at work, and its progress is phe nomena!. Particularly were "we impressed with the live, wide-awake women of this convention, and the character of their papers and discussions would well com pare with any meeting of other federa tions. The report of the Browning club, of Sti.l- water, made by Mrs. Bogue, showed a new auxiliary work, called the Sisterhood, with this motto: "With good will, doing ser vice." Through this auxiliary the philan thropic work of caring for the suffering was done, and many poor women were made the happier for it. The artistic music furnished by Miss Grace King, Miss McCune. Mr. Ben Davis and Miss Beaty -was appreciated by the ladies ,as their frequent encores evi denced. Mrs. S. R, Peters of Newton, Kan., made a very helpful, practical address on club methods and educational forces in federation work. The women of the convention werejappreclative of the visit made them by Mrs. Peters, Mrs. Rea S. McClure of Kansas City, and Mrs. R. P. Murdock and the guests were delighted with the spirit and attentions proffered them. The University of Oklahoma Is located at Xorman and its fine buildings, covered with ivy. surrounded by a forest of elms and maples, are abundant proof of the indomitable energy and pluck of the men who are guiding the educational factors of Oklahoma. D. R. Bloyd is president of this institution which now has 'JSO stu dents and a faculty of efficient teachers. The visit to this school was one of the pleasant episodes of the meeting. Each visitor came away-from Norman impressed with the "Kindliness and Help fulness" the convention had brought to her, for this is the motto adopted by the Oklahoma Federation of Olubs. Study and Social Club Harper, Kan. This club has closed a year's work of which its members are justly proud. The entire year was devoted to the Roman period, and the club took a written exam ination upon it. Fifty questions were asked, and the papers of Mrs. H. Garrett and Mrs. C. J. AVestfall were found to be correct in every answer. Mrs. S. E. Cole stood next highest. The prizes were copies of Frounde's "Science of History" and Lamb's "Tales from Shakespeare." Seven ladies were neither absent nor tardy (out of twenty-five members) during the year and two were each absent but once. They were Mcdames Garrett, Cunningham, AVestfall, Spooner. AVeatherly, Sisson' and Futtonn the first 3ist and Mesdames La mar and Cole in the second. Each of the above was presented with a sterling silver paper-cutter by the leader. The club pre sented Mrs. AVeatherly with an elegant copy of Shakespeare's complete works. This makes the fifth year this lady has acted in the capacity of leader. In some respects the constitution of this club is different from that of other clubs. It says, first, "No dues shall be levied, but all expenses incurred shall be equaily borne;' second, "Any member absent three consecutive meetings (except when ill or out of town) shall be dropped from the roll;" third, "The executive committee shall consist of those members neither absent nor tardy during the previous year;" fourth, "The program committee shall consist of those making the highest grades In examination (not to exceed five." The examination -is conducted by the leader, who herself from time to time takes the county examination for teach er's certificate. Three social meetings are held yearly, at which intellectual games and culinary arts vie with each other in ministering to the enjoyment of the guests. The members of the club, although not taking part directly in municipaUor school affairs, feel that they are raising slowly but surely thfc moral and intellectual status of their own families, and in that way contributing indirectly to the gen eral welfare of the whole community. Fortnightly Club Arkansas City. The Fortnightly club, of Arkansas City, will discuss "Housekeeping and Home Making" at their meeting Monday. Paper by Mrs. Pottle; talk by Mrs. Roberts; discussion led by Mrs. Post.

One week ago Saturday occurred the annual college picnic Through the .kind ness of Mr., Thompson the picnickers ren dezvoused on the fine picnic grounds on his farm. The drive of eight or nine miles was full of pleasure and delight. The ma jority of the students went by way cf single and double carriages, but by far the jolliest crowd were thirty-five students who traveled in a large tally-ho. The day was cool and pleasant. The collegians were overjoyed with the prospects of a day off. They cheered everything the col lege, the dignified faculty, the classes, the students, and when further subjects failed they cheered the objects along the way side, the farmers, the dogs and the calves. The camp by the Little river, the boun teous dinner, the flowers, the snakes and birds made the day brimgul of delights delights which every faithful, hard-working student deserved and enjoyed. Monday evening the members of the Senior class and their friends were enter tained by Professor anr Mrs. eLonard. AVednesday afternoon the members of the History and Economics club met for their first, regular session at the home of Professor AV. H. Isely. AA. E. Kramer, 'S3, as president, called the club to order and opened the program by a neat address on the Importance of economic thought and study. Miss Allie Miller, '99, read a thoughtful paper on the "Wages and Prices of Necessities in the Nations of tho World." The statistics of this paper were based on recent government and consular reports. Matile Roulet,''59, gave a care fully prepared list of "Local Municipal Indebtedness," including the indebtedness of Sedgwick county, Wichita .and each township and school district of the city. AV. S. Fleming, '&9, gave an excellent dis cussion of "Our Merchant Marine," recit ing the causes of Its decline and what the remedy. Professor Isely discussed the "Eastern Question" in so far as it relates to the great cqmmercial struggle now going on in the Far East and the deep importance to the United States of the final outcome. The club closed its ses sion by the election of president for the coming year. Miss Ellen Robinson, '00, was chosen for this position. The Y. M. C. A. elected the following officers for tho coming school year: Frank! McClung. president; A. O. Walker, vice president; Walter Herrick .secretary; R. J. Campbell, corresponding secretary; Frank Klnsey, treasurer. The association is growing in numbers and in general in--terest and is looking forward to larger work next fall. r Friday evening Mr. and Mrs. Isely en tertained in honor of the Senior prepara tory class. Miss Lodi Munn, now of Denver, but formerly of Fairmount, visited the col lego during the week and renewed old friendships.

One of the leading attorneys of AVichita, and one of the best known-Democrats in Kansas, writes the following to the Eag'c, entitling it "Manifest Destiny or the Roulette of Political Circumstance": The Spanish war, though, entered upon- with the del-berathra of "An act of Con gress," was after all hut the premediation of an impulse; the incide.it at Manila was not from any design. Statesnaushln tn deavors to formulate a pai .:vl cast a horoscope for the end. The far eastern possessions in which our sovereignty s be.ng upheld by the army and navy are being subdued without any definite policy so far as the people of the United States have any information. Expansion is not yetJdeflteJ as to what is intended; non-expansionists condemn, and yet no plan Is formulated as to '.row we shall let go of- theL"tiger." Tnere is some reason in the expansionists demand ing, that in politics as in religion, a feasi ble scheme of final redemption should be put out before condemlng rresent con ditions. In short, no one sh:wil destroy who cannot rebuild re-create. A firm believer In the doctrine that the United States is big enough at home and has wor kenough at hope to engage ttie ripest judgment and enlist the best brain in the country, the existing cond lions tend to convince the writer that "earth is akin to letting a tiger smell blood and hunger" as expressed b" an Englishman then remonstrating with him for wanting the whole carcass. j Condemnation of the past does not" solve problems. Denunciation of the policy or want of definite policy in the past year may be a pleasure, but the fact remains that "I told you so," is not statesman ship. Statesmanship accepts the past at tempts to improve the present, and formu lates a plan for the future. No man who does not cover these three ideas 's en titled to be listened to. New England is supposed tc be opposed to expansion. New England, however, was not the promoter of the "Louisiana purchase," "the Mexican war," or "an nexation of Texas," and yet many be United States sovereignty are all there is of the United States worth mentioning hence millions in the west from pure pre judice will advocate whatever New Eng land opposes. Party lines are not yet marked out on expansion. "It is yet a matter of Individual thought. No Ameri can desires the defeat of our army" at Manila, no matter what his views on ex pansion are. The Twentieth Kansas is makng new converts to expansion every day. "General Funston could speak to thousands, where two years ago he only had a few hundred in his audience. There are three courses open In the United States in regard toManila: First Back out, quit,-, 'and become a laughing stock of the world. Second Conquer and establish power, form a government with the aid of other powers; guarantee law and security to property; provide for an Independent gov ernment in time to come, under certain conditions. Third Unconditional surrender of all antagonistic forces; establish military power for tho present; declare the sov eign power "of the UnUedJjtates over all the land; create a territorial form of gov ernment; exercise dominion over all the lands not occupied, and cause the same to be surveyed by the surveyor general; in duce the -soldiers not In the regular army to accept lands and civil nifices; offr Ac cent Inducements m the way if transpor tation and bounty to actual homestead ers'to so there and make a home, and by these means place a hundred thousand Americans out there in thcrixt few years; extend the laws of the United States over the territory as in other territories; Te place the money system with otir eystem; have a form of local government; rormit a number of delegates to seats in congress as advisary to shaping legislation, and provide for a time when all legal pro ceedings shall be conducted in our lan guage. There is no use to procrastinate. The roulette of circumstance points to the third view as the only rational view that can be adopted with safety. There is no sense In proclaiming that our conduct will give a He to our benevolent professions one year ago. The majority of Kansana are now In fa vor of keeping Manila and all eastern pos sessions. The west is in favor of holding all possessions. Statemanshlp may con demn the past year; error may have been committed. The present contains a duty, and that duty is to formulate .t pn tc take care of tomorrow and the years to come. Yesterday, last year, are gone, goneforever. Their errors, triumphs, sor rows, glories are alike entombed. The fu ture is before us. Fate, destiny, the roulette of political circumstance, hath decreed that the United States will hold the Philippines. Unknown to Dewey the morning he de stroyed tfie Spanish fleet at Manila, he annexed the territory to the United States. Nations as well as men are governed by impulse, and that impute turns the cur rent t,of national Mfe as K does the indi vidual The American people as a unit demand ed war with Spain. Prudence dictated the capture of Manila. A condition has pre sented Itself that must be worked out with honor. AVe demanded war: Therefore the nat ural result must be accepted. COXTRIBUTOR- ABOUT H.

A picturesque scene was witnessed ono day lost week' in the north part f the town which reminded one of early p.o neer days. It was a train of emigrant wa gona or prairie pcooners headed for the south. .There were eleven team wagons and trail wagons and the horses and other stock were of a better grade than most of these outfits carry. Stoves were arranged in each covered wagon, and all conveniences pcwsible were in evidence. On each -wagon's white side appeared in well painted lettering the announcement "In God AVe Trust." This latter reminds one of a similar train which years ago passed through this cky labeled as the one of last week. Long and vain they waited for the president to declare the Oklahoma country open for settlement, but Grover xvaa obdurate, and when at last, discouraged and disgusted they gave it up they dragged thoir skinny teams and more skinny selves through tho city on their way back home, and on the tattered canvas of the several wag6ns ap peared the revised version, of "In God AVe Trust," and. it wa this" "In Cleveland we trusted, and n Oklahoma we busted."

New York, May 20. The World publish es the following regarding Hhe blood feud between Afridis and Brlueh soldiers, which is said to bo alarming: the gam fcon of Peshawar: "The fat white man Is dead. "His clothing is awry upon him. Also thoro is much blood. "Ye shall know who struck. It is the Zakka-Kheyl. The feud of the blood brothers. "He paled. The steel hushed him. He rolled on his back. His eye is dull. "The eye that was big with terror." "His mouth was open, but the voice was fled. "He was not the last. There is still the Foud. Look to it. white men! "Let the women have no fear. "The fetid is the feud of the men that came to fight. "Oh, the poor, fat wiiito man! Look upon him! "And keop yo guard yet a little. "It Js the feud; the foud!" This is the song of the Zakka-Kheyl. Thte, or something like it, is the message they sent to the Britibh garrison, in Pesh awar, Northern India. The subject of the taunting stong was a bandsman in the Hampshire regiment, who was found mur dered not long ago under circumstances which could leave no doubt that he was slain by a Ghazi, a zealot sworn to kill, and to die, if need be, while killing After the recent border war between the Uritish troops and Che Afridis, most of the latter were pacified, and" returned calmly to their old duties as warders of the Khybor Pass, tho narrow defile that leads from India to Afghanistan. They had fought and made peace, and all was wttl. But tho Zakka-Khey! were not sat isfied. They had lost more heavily than any other tribe of tho AfrWis, and had not inflicted sufficient damage in return. Open warfare was impossiblo wMi the other tribes pacified, but there was still a way to even the score. Men vowed to kUl could gv down to Peshawar, "the cork of tho Khyber," and kill by ones and rvos until tJie debt was paid and tho feud appeased. It is not a feud against individuate. Any Christian wear ing ttio queen's uraform will do. Several soldiers toad been murdered before the killing of the musician called attention to the matter. Now men go to their daily duty in fear and tromblinsr. Battle is one thing. Most men can face that, in com panionship and plenty of notee to oheer them on. But the lean Ghazi, sworn to kill or die. crawMng through the com pound in the darkness like a venomous snake, noiseless and cool and keen on slaughter the Ghaxi with his knife gripp ed between his teeth and his soul ticket ed to Paradise by the promise of the prophet is a different affair.

It makes an Englishman hot in the collar not to know who h's foe is. Much blood is still to flow in Peshawar before the feud of the Zakka-Kheyl is satisfied, unless the government takes of ficial cognizance of the campaign of pri vate vengeance and reopens the border war by stamping out the Zakka-Kheyl.

JMd Mitt mine i treasure Bouse of Itlontezuttia Bas Been Discovered. New York, Slay 20. THe "World says. Professor 'vVuUam"JNilven.-tbe explorer and archaeologist, has "discdveredthe .mines from w hich tho.Aztees of Mexico obtained their gold and from which the' proverbial treasure of the Montezumas came. Since 1SS9 Professor Niven has been searching for these mines. First he accurately lo cated the capital of Montezuma's empire. He knew that historians said that the treasure house of the Mjontezumas was lo cated some eighty leagues west or south west, and after years of search he has found the mines. But one of them has been investigated. The vein in this is only three feet wide, but It assays ?5,000 a ton. For centuries the Spaniards looted Mex ico, and until they were driven out they were always able to extort gold from the Mexican natives. (Many and many a de vice and untold torture were used to try to make those who knew tell to the Spaniards where lay the mines from whioh the gold was obtained. None1 ever told. It has remained for a patient ex plorer to rediscover the iong-abandoned mines. In June of 1SH Professor Niven found the remains of a buried and prehistoric city, which has since been identified as Quechomictlipan. At first Mr. NIvens thought the ruins covered but a small area, but he has now changed his opinion. In one of his late letters) he says: "I have taken 300 photographs of the ruins of Quechomictlipan, which cover a much wider area than I had supposed some thing like l,(wv) square miles, in fact. In stead of eight temples there are more than twenty." Hsstory has taught Mr. Niven tha' there was something else in Mexico besides ruin.s He knew that in the days "when Montezuma ruled over his Aztees gold was as common in Mexico as load now is with us. For twelve years he has sat urated himself with the lore of the Mexi cans and for ten years of that time he has steadily sought the elucidation of the mystery of the "Lost Mines of the Monte zumas." Now he thinks that he has found them. Neither ihe glory nor the profit Qf his find can be taken from him. As long ago as 1SS5 he obtained a concession from the (Mexican government that covered all his work, and be has secured most thorough protection. Besid locating the mteos he "has made a careful survey of the mar velous city he has discovered. The rec ord of his discoverv reads Hke a fairy tale. Not only doe It show that the ancient c'ty possessed a civilization little Inferior to that of todav. but it also shows that th city was probably the capital, or gov erning city, cf the whole of Southern America. The main gortion of the city, which had evidently been the great mart of trade and the seat of the greater popu lation, shows that the metropolis had boundaries greater than thoe of the pres ent etty of New York, and beyond tfeis evidence of suburb which must have j made. QuechapiotlSpas larger than Lon- don. I Ornaments of all kinds, statues, giid imager and human bones by the ton have 1 been found by Mr. Niven and his work- I men. The enormous number of skulls j found is -held to prove the entire accuracy of :he old legends of the ghastly human j sacrifices offered by the Astees at their I rel'gious, celebrations. Cortex, who made the first of these reports, was looked upon Grand Concert flay 31, at Opera House. as a narrator of myths when he said that some of his.soldiers had counted 138,000 skulls at one of the places of sac rifice, "but tho discoveries recently made confirm its truth. It is said that'at the dedication of the great temple of Huitzil potohi, in 14S6, the ruins of which have been examined by Mr. Nivens, the prison ers used for the sacrifice had been saved up for two years- and had been drawn from all quarters of the empire. The cer emony of sacrifice consumed several days, and 70,000 captives are said to have been killed. The procession of victims was two miles long. No less than twenty of these temples, or pyramids of sacrifice, have been found by Mr. Niven, and each has an enormous heap oS human bones near it The Montezuma-whose treasure house Mr. Niven thinks ho has uicovered was Montezuma II. He was more of a priest than a statesman, and, when notified of his election as emperor, he was found sweeping the stairs of the great temple of the war god. A year after his accession, however, there was a decided dhango in Montezuma. He had ibecome poted for his success in battle and also for his arro gance, pomp and luxury. He earned hl3 campaigns as far as Honduras and Nica ragua and looted those countries, as well as Mexico, of their wealth. He learned the secret of the mines of the Toltecs, the predecessors of the Aztees, and it Is said that at one time had 2,000 men working in the gold mines. He was at the height of his glory when Cortez entered Mexico, in 1519. Montezuma was not in the least glad to hear of the coming of the Span iard, for there had been strange portents in the sky, and his soothsayers had told him that they foreshadowed the over throw of the empire. Among the other gifts which Coftez or iginally sent to Montezuma was a big steel helmetN of Spanish manufacture. Montezuma sent it back, filled to the brim with grains of gold. He also sent an alligator's head, life size, of gold, and two great circular plates of gold and sil er "of the bigness of a coach wheel." as the Spanltoh chronicler said. One was worth J284.000. The present were enough to fill one of the Spanish ships, and were nearly all of gold. There was never any suspicion that the metal had been brought from other countries. It seems to have been looked upon as an exclu sively home product, and a cheap one at that. Cortez, having seoa the gold, would not go away, and Montezuma wa afraid to use force to drive the invader out. Ow ing u a disturbance which occurred at Vera Cruz, Cortez made it appear that he was the friend of Montezuma, aad in duced the emperor to meat him unaccom panied by guards. When the emperor went to the meeting place tie was made prsooer by Cortez ami was taken to tbe Spanish headquarters. In Jane. 152b. Ae peopl of the capital rose in revolt aad besieged the Spaniards In their quarters. Things looked so bad Cor the Spaniards shat Cortez. hoping to tnSueoce tbe Mex icans, induced Montezuma to address his subjects from the battlements and plead for peace. At ftrst Montezuma was listened to with respect, hot at length bfe appeals on be half of the whit men so exasperated ttes Mexicans that taey refused to Fetea. A shower of missiles was discharged at afeo. a stone struck him on the temple, and a fen senseless. He refnd aH T?sediei.tere the bandages from his wounds and died In a few days. Wni.

Victoria, B C May 20. Shortly before the just-arrived steamer Miowera left Sjdney for this port, the cutter Mystery returned to Cookstown from the scene of the recent disaster by hurricane on the north Queensland coast, by which prac tically every vessel engaged in the pearl fishery was wrecked and much property lost afloat and ashore. The sights that met the eyes of the relief expedition along the desolate coast were horrifying beyond description. At one place where a pic turesque fishing viEage with a population of S00 had stood, neither house nor tree nor lhing thing was left. The site of the little settlement looked like new plo-ssod land and the survivors among the fishing folk had fled for safety to an inland town twelve miles distant There and further along the coast mangCed bodies of men and domestic animals werp found. Severai were secured uith some difficulty, wedged in the branches of trees that had defied the storm, where they had been blon from distances as great as a quarter of a mile The yMstery's officers and crew recovered in all fifty-eight bodies, of which eighteen were Identified and claimed by mourning relatives. Of the remaining forty, thirty six were natives, whose remains were given respectable burial In one groat trench. The Mystery party found larg fish and wreckage thirty and forty feet above high-water level, and trees and veg etation "oveled for upward of fifty miles along the coast.
