Washington, Nov. 29. The following has bees received from Admiral Wateon: 'XTommander Very of the Castine, with friendly natives and Moros combined, captured Zamboanga on the 16th inst. N easualities. Landing parties from. Castine and the Manila hold the town, -with Fort Nazro commanding it, pending arrival of troops from Jolo. There Is con siderable force of Insurgents ar Mercedes four mites away." The acquisition of Zamboanga at this tane is of great importance from a mili tary point of view. It is the principal city of Hindaneo and dominates the en tire southern half of the island, which is second In importance only to Luzon. It ha a population of nearly 2200 people, and Is well fortified, so that a small gar rison of troops could hold it indefinitely against, native attacks In addition it is a naval station, where the Spaniards used to rendezvous their ships in the south ern archipelago. A dispatch from General Otis' intimated that he Is somewhat em herrassedr by the unexpected necessity of providing a garrison speeiily for Zam boanga. It has been suggested that the difficulty might be met by garrisoning Zamboanga' with a bat tali an of marines, one of which is understoo dnow to be available In this country and ready to sail at short notice for Manila. Maatta, iNov. 30.-8:25 a. m. Only frag mentary reports reach Manila, of the op erations north, which, when Use story is knowH. will prove to have been the most remarknhle campaigning the Philippine war has known. General .La ton's div ision Is- spread thinly over the territory beyond San Jose, where the telegraph ends. General youngs two regiments of cava'ay are continuing their rapid sweep law the cegr towns, and the infantry is being shoved forward to hoid the towns the cavalry takes, all in a country whose natural difficultls are increased inde scribaMyby tropical rains, making rivers of creeks and swamps of fields. "Wagon transportation is supposed to have been. practicaily abandoned, the American troops living on captured supplies and the. little produce the insurgent levies have left Major Samuel M. Swfcert's squadron of the Third cavalry is reported to he en gaging a greatly superior force at T? orrubio, northeast of Dagupan. These troops have fought three engagements, and are now holding their posit ion, wait ing for reinforcements It is believeu at headquarters that this Filipino force is covering the retreat of the insurgent loaders to the Binguel mountains, that the insurgents planned to retreat north east, along the Taytur road, which is stocked with storehouses, three of which the-Americans have secured, to draw upon, and that only the insurgent advance force had passed Taygu before the Am erican occupation, the main body of Ag utaaldo's army being wtthln onr lines. The majority of these insurgents may dis organise and pose as amigos when the Americans ovrtake them. Among- the scraps of new obtainable are stories of the hardships the American arm is meeting' with. It i reported for instance, that General Lawton narrowly escaped drowning while fording a swift rlw, when Lieutenant Lun and two pri vates were lost. Captain Henry A. Leon haeusar. with a battalion of the Twenty fifth infantry, is on h!s way from Sam ban to Odoneil, to take the insurgent cart ridge filling works there A Filipino cap tain who surrendered, with four men. to Ooljnel Andrew 8. Burt, of the Twenty- i fifth Infantry. described the factory and volunteered to guide the exp--dttlon. The governor of Nueva Viaeaya has de termined, like maov other Filipinos in these days, that the administration of his province cannot change too quick, and is comina- to Manila to tell Major General OH f hia loyalty, and. incidentally, re attest that he be retained in office under i he new. regime. Admiral Watson has- received an nddi tio&al credible report that Lieutenant J. O. Gumore and five of the captured -jrs of the raited States gunboat Tork town, were at Tarlas November l.

Oelafe einat the nuitas wlB j probably be averted through the pacific influence of the American officers. Mindanao villagers have seixed a smug gling schooner bound from Iloilo to Zam boanga and supposed to be run by two discharged soldiers.. They murdered all the crew. General Bates Is now on board the Yorktown, bound on a month's trip to Balabac and Borneo, to observe the meth ods followed by the British in the gov ernment of the Mohammedans. (1:30 p. m.) There has been a revival of insurgent activity south of Manila, par ticularly in Cavite province. At Imus yesterday the Filipinos fired a smooth bore cannon, but this was soon silenced by the American artillery. In the course of the morning Major Cowles, with a battalion of the Fourth infantry and two guns, scattered the enemy from the dis tricts around Imus and In the direction of Peres Das Marinas. The Americans could not pursue the retreating inscrgents because their ammunition was exhaust ed. The Filipinos were under command of General Marinos Trias. Spies report that the insurgents are coming Into Ca vite province from Calambang, in Lana province, and the other southerly prov inces. The insurgents have smooth-bores and two modern cannon. Firing was la progrees this afternoon and it is reported that there are more insurgents in the vi cinity of Imus than ever before. Two columns, one from Imus and the other from Bacoor, converged on the Za pote bridge, where they found a deserted Filipino camp. Two troops of the Fourth cavalry, four companies of the Fourth infantry and two guns of Captain Rilej 's battery proceeded to Annaboo, south of Imus, and came upon the neomy en trenched at that point. They scattered the Filipinos, but as the latter were sub sequently reinforced, the Americans re turned to Imus under fire, seven of our men. being wounded. The scouts found fifteen dead insurgents at Annaboo. Thirty Insurgents, under a. major, es caped from Bayambang yesterday about! ten minutes before the Americans enter ed. Others, it is said, threw their guns into the Tver and now play the role of amigos. Many Spanish prisoners, escap ed from the Filipinos, are at Bayarcbang, among them the former governors of the provinces of Tarlac and Zambales. There is go qulte a igg colony of former in surgent officers collected at this point, in- eluding- Major Ortiz, -who acted as inter preter for the Filipino commission head ed by General Alejandnno which visited Manila in September. Ortiz has donned the amigo clothing and announces that he has abandoned the Insurrection. The Spaniards say that' the new insurgent capital is Bengaet, and that the Ameri can prisoners are at Camitin- They re port having seen Lieutenant Gilmore and his party in the north. C10-30 p. m. General McArthur's recon notsance entered Dagupan this afternoon. The Americans found that no insur gents had been there for four days. The Thh-ij--third infantry was probably in Dagupan yesterday, leaving last night. Xo Insurgents have been seen anywhere near the railroad. It is believed that the only armed force of any size Is In the mountains of the province of Zambles, to the west, although there are reports of insurgents concentrating at San Miguel de camilang, west of Panique, and at Manga trom (or Manablaron), -nest of Bayabang. General MacArthur is pre pared for the atUck. his forces being dis posed between Durban, province of Tar lac and Dagupan, The Twelfth infantry, a battalion of the Seventeenth infantry, and two troops of cavalry, are with Gen eral MacArthur below Dagupan. General Wheeler has decided not to re turn for congress. He is writing a letter to President MeKinley. with a request that It be forwarded to the house of rep resentatives. In the course of an Inter view with a correspondent of the Asso ciated Press he said: "Congress, if it oc cupies the first day of the session in pass ing a resolution declaring in unmistak able terms that the sovereigntj of the United States is to be maintained in the Philippines, thus dispelling Aguinaldo's illusion that the anti-imperialists can as sist him, will be performing a sacred duty. Such a resolution would save the lives of many American so'dlers and of thousands of deluded Filipinos. "Would j avert famine, suffering and desolation from hese islands, and wojjd render un necessary the expenditure of hundreds of millions of dollars." The people of Cota Baio on the south western coast of the 4stand of Minadao, desire Che establishment of American gov ernment there and have addressed a. peti tion to General Otis asking him to send troops? In relating how they had appeal ed to the Dato to protect them against the attempts of Aguinaldo's officials to collect excessive taxes, they say In the petition that the dato "havbur eompls akm for our .sufferings and in the interests of peace," pubHVly beheaded a half doeeit of these omrials.

FAKERS AT LADYSMITH British Plan a Threefold Ad vance Up-Country, London,"ov. 2lz a. m. The reports of heavy fighting at Ladysmith last Wednesday have not been confirmed. On the contrary, the most reliable advices from Estcourt Indicate that there was nothing more than a desultory cannon ade. Probably the rumor of a serious en gagement grew out of the fact that the Boers threw a few harmless shells late Tuesday night, leading to the supposition. that an attack was imminent. Nothing, however, happened "Wednesday. Beyond the fact that the Boers are daily receiv ing fresh reinforcements and supplies, therfeis practically "nothing new from the front. The Boer invasion of Cape Colony con tinues steadily and rapidly. There are 2,300 Boers at Colesburg and news has reached Eabt London that Ladygrey, near Aliwal Xorth, ha3 been deserted by the British and is now in the hands of the enemy. A Pretoria dispatch announces the ar rival there, among the British prisoners, of Major Haldane, Lieutenant Brochle and Lieutenant Halwoy. It also declares that the British on Sunday made two unsuccessful attempts to oust the Rus tenburg commando from a position near Maf eking and that severe fighting took place. From Delagoa Bay comes reports of .the arrival of more German officers and artillerymen, who have volunteered to serve with the Transvaal forces The war office semi-otficially asserts that sll new3 received from Africa has ben published, with the exception of de mands for the removal of stores, war material and the like. There is an un confirmed rumor that more troops have been ordered from India to the Cane. The plan of operations on both sides is slowly unfolding itself Genexal Joubert Is evidently moving south to prevent, if possible, the junction of the British re lieving force with the forces at Estcourt and Ladysmith, while on the Orange river border the Boers are believed to be concentrating, at Donkerpoor to oppose General Bullers advance. It Is said 5.000 Boers have already laagpred at Donker Boort. The English plan seems to be a three fold advance from Durban to Lady smith. from Oranges river to Kimberley and from East London, by way of Queenstown, tcf Burghersdorp. General BBuBller has wired the commanding of ficer at Qunstown. announcing the dis patch of General Gatacre. fif the First battalion of the Seventh brigade, to East London. This was the place from which it was originally Intended that General Gatacre's column should start. Thus It is possible that General Buller's first plans have suffered less modification than some have suooosed General Gatacre will be able to keep the Boers on the Orange border suf; ficiently occupied to preserve General Me thuen from undue molestation, especi ally if rumors from various sources that describe the Free State burghers as in no wise enthusiastic for flghtinfe, are well founded. It has been reported that Gen eral Bu'.ler will take up his quarters at De Arr, but this seems doubtful. De Aar. where a vast amount of stores has been collected, is the base for General Methuen's advance and General Buller mj,v -r-vL-a twwi there for a day or so. It is believed, however, that he still has his headquarters at Cae Town. Although Kimberley is supposed to be the objective of General Methuen, many military critics are of the opinion tnat his advance will be, not toward Kim berley, but across the Orange Free State, in order to secure complete command of the Orange river. The debarkation of troops at Cape Town is proceeding in the most -satisfactory manner. One thousand eight hundred and fifty railway carriages have been col lected there for the conveyance of troops northward, and" there is talk of suspend Iny the suburban traffic so as to acceler ate military work. The Dally Chronicle In its "war dairy" says this morning': "Hitherto we have hesitated to speak of the quality of the tinned njat supplied to our transports, much of which has had to be thrown overboard. But we have made inquiries m quarters not likely o be fnduenced by mere rumors, and we find there the sus pis on that some of the meat supplied to the government for use on British trans ports was meat which had been rejected by the Unlt-d State? during hostilities in Cuba where It was picturesquely known as 'embalmed beer and re-IaheUed with the mark of the current year. Whatever blunder there may be. it must he laid, not at the door of the war omce, but t the donr of the admiralty, which has under taken to feed troops. Xot a single com plaint has come to hand regarding- the quality of the war dee." BKITIoU KKLIKK 3IQ rKSUBLSTS London.

The popular anticipations here regard ing the relief of Kimberly appear too sanguine The British force Is not yet ready, and when it starts It will have a dangerous road to follow, every foot of which will probably be contested If the British attempt a direct advance. So, It is said, possibly. Instead of rushing di rectly for Kimberly, the British will ad vance across the frontier to Blomhontein, which may thus be tbrateneL Thi3, it Is claimed, would draw off General Cron je's forces and enable the railroad to be restored. Fro mthe presence of General Buller near General Methuen at Orange river, It is anticipated that the main ad vances will be made on the west side, but, it is added, unless General Gatacre is able to advance simultaneously and push back the Boers who are occupying so many points south of the Orange river, the British Hne3 of communication will be seriously threatened. General Buller's orders to his officers on the subject of equipment are taken to mean that the officers are to carry rifles, like the troop". It Is reported that the Boers have at tacked Kuruman and sustained heavy loss It is hard, however, to conjecture why the Boers would waste ammunition on a village far out on the plaln, de fended by 2C0 police. It is further as-ert-ed that the Boers have no serious inten tion of invading Cape Colony but Intend to concentrate their scattered forces with the view of opposing the British advance across the southern border of the Orange Free State The presence of the Boers in so many of the towns In Cape Colony has caued Sir Alfred Mllner the gover nor, to proclaim martial law in those places. The British forces have retreat ed from these points and are being1 con centrated on the Orange river.

THEY TEND TRUSTWARDS In Their Issue-Hunt- Early Convention Probable. Chicago. Xov. 20. The Democratic na tional executive committee, with Nation al Chairman J. K. Jones in the chair, spent most of today in a room, in the Sherman house discussing matters per taining to'organlzation, ways and means and the administrative affairs or the or ganization. The committee will meet again tomorrow and, it is expected, will get through th& business on hand before night. Xothingwas said about a national committee meeting, but it is the opinion of most of the national executive commit teemen that the full committee will be called to meet in Washington, February 22, and that the national Democratic con vention will be held the latter part of May or the first of June. Mr. Jones would say nothing about calling the committee. The committeemen were very uncom municative a sto what was done at the meeting. Secretary Charles A. Walsh said the committee had transacted no business of interest or importance and had only considered administrative affairs. After the meeting 5iad adjourned, however, some of the committeemen continued the discfussion of th eprobable situation next year They disclosed the fact that a con siderabla. part of the committee's sitting had been devoted to discussing the prob able effect of high prices on the campaign of 1900. It is the purpose of some of the committeemen to organize a bureau of in formation and education whose duty it shall be to gather accurate and definite information relating to trusts, cost of manufacturing, selling prices to jobbers and middlemen, selling-prices to consu mers, wages paid and ccst of raw ma terial. They believe rbey will be able to show that the present high prices are the result of trusts and combinations and that worklngmen have been given but a small pproportion of the increase In sell ing values. This Idea has assumed such tangible form that it is predicted that W H. ("Coin") Harvey will be placed at the head of the bureau. None of the com mitteemen would admit that" thi matter had been discussed. It is proposed to em ploy a large staff of men to gather in formation which can he used n an anti trust campaign. There did not seem to be any disposi tion to shelve free silver as an issue: all the committee said free silver colnasre was In the platform to stay, but none of them s,aid it would b- the dominant is sue.

T., Nov. 20. The selection of John XV. Scathorn by the supreme court of the territory to temporarily fill the po sition of United States district attorney, pending the appointment by the president of a successor to the late Samuel u. Overstreet, Is generally regarded as the atelogical and rightful outcome of a deli cate situation. Mr. Scothorn was the first assistant in the office of the United States attorney, by virtue of which po sition Tie was thoroughly in touch with a;i the business and every detail of the office, and It was hardly reasonable to be lieve that the supreme court would go outside of the office in making a tempor ary appointment. It was not surprising, therefore, that Mr. Scothorn's selection was by a unanimous desicion of the court, with the exception of Justice Mc Atee, who, In voting fpr J. C. Strang, ex plained that it was purely through strong, personal friendship, and disclaim ing any intention of reflecting upon Mr. Stothorn's high reputation as a lawyer and hI3 ability tc conduct the affairs of the office of United Stages attorney. The final decision of the supreme court was not announced until midnight Satur day night. The court had convened at 4 o'clock In the afternoon and an informal discussion showed Justice Hainer favor ing Scothorn, Justice McAtee for Strang, and Chief Justice Burford and Justice Burwell non-committal. Justice Irwin was absent, but wired that he was un conditionally for Scothorn. The situation was in this shape when an adjournment was ordered until today to await the ar rival of Justice Irwin, but at 9:30 o'clock Saturday night Chief Justice Burford and Justice Burwell took a carriase and t'rove to tho residence of Governor Barnes, where they were In consultation with tho governor for an hour or more. Just what was talked over in this meet ing is not known, but the fact is clear that at the end of the consultation the two justices returned to the court room, c mvened, revoked the order of adjourn ment and after a brief consultation with Justices Hainer and McAtee tho appoint ment of Mr. Scothorn as temporary United States attorney was announced. "Mr Scothorn was present in the court end immediately took tho oath of office. J"hn W. Scothorn, who succeeds to the office so ably and so popularly filled by lis predecessor, was born in Vinton coun- I ty, Ohio, on the 22nd of March, 1S55, and twenty-five years later, on May ath, 1SS0, was admitted to practice In the supreme cuurt of the state. Ho evinced a dispo sition for politics when he was old p lugh to ride a horse to bring voters to ti polls, and when but 25 years of age a elected mayor of Hamilton, Ohio. He -was a warm admirer of Senator Foraker in the latter's political fights and when I oraker toi elected governor Mr. Scot Siorn was in partnership with H. S. Bundy, father-in-law of Governor For nker, at "Wellston. In January following Governor Forekor's election, Mr. Scot Oorn was appointed to a position in the a ljutant general's office, which he held Oroushout the entire term of ifour years. In May, 1890, he came to Oklahoma as f pedal agent for the general land office, si id was afterwards assigned to assist Vnltod States Attorney Speed in the prosecution of perjury cases arising out c f land contosts. He was engaged in t'i i-e duties until 1S93, when he was rc 1 cved by the change of administration. In February, 1S9S, he was appointed sec- 0 id assistant United States attorney, and the following month he received his ap- 1 ntment as first assistant. Mr. Scothorn's most recent promotion ive? a vacancy in the office of first a-cistant, which will remain until filled appointment from the attorney gen t ral of the United States. It Is generally encoded, however, that B. S. McGuire, tho present second assistant, will 1e pro moted to the vacancy. The only out spoken candidate for McGulre's place. In the event of his promotion. Is L. M. Xoye who at present Is deputy district clerk at Oklahoma City. SINCE THE DAYS OF OUTLAWS Vo Jtcivnrd Offered Fqunl to That fo Hint's Murderer Guthrie, O.

LAST HONORS TO OVERSTREET Full Record of tlio funeral Observ at Franklin, Ind Guthrlo, O. T., Nov. 20. Attorney Gen eral Harper S. Cunningham and Judge C. R. Brooks, representing the Logan Coun ty Bar association; Hon. John XV. Scot horn and Otto Bekemeyer, arrived home yesterday from Franklin, Indiana, where the attended the funeral of tho late Sam uel Livingstone Overstreet. The Okla homa cmomitteo -was in time for the funeral and found the services amply in the hands of tho local bar and the Elks of two cities. In the service of tribute to the dead the Bar association of Frank lin had charge of part, and the Elks of Indianapolis and Columbus of another. The Guthrie committee acted on two lo cal committees. The Elks committee was formed of Otto Bekemeyer, Judge Brooks and Judge Cunningham, with Bekemeyer as chairman, and tho bar association, of Judge Cunningham, Judge Brooks and John Sootthorn, with Judge Cunningham as chairman. The Elks fraternity, com posed of Indianapolis and Columbus, held "lodge of sorrow," and Judge Cun ningham presided as exalted ruler of the meeting. Fitting resolutions were passed by both the Elks and the Bar association. Five members of the original bar under which the deceased was admitted twenty five years ago, of which his father, now SI years old, is still a mem'ber, were pres ent. Seven children, four brothers and three sisters of the deceased, were pres ent, tho deceased being the first death In the family. The Franklin Star, a local newspaper, furnishes tho following account' of a memorial service held- by the Johnson County Bar association: At an adjourned meeting of the John son county bar, held at the ofllce of tho county clerk, to hold a momorial service in memory of Hon. S. L. Overstreet, de ceased: "Memorial of the Jehnson County Bar upon the death of Samuel L.

Subsequently he re moved to Guthrie, Oklahoma, where he lias sinco resided and held many offices of trust and honor, tbeing at the time of his death the "United States district attorney for OkJahoma. "XVe, as a bar, and those of us who knew Mr. Overstreet personally have al ways held him in tho highest esteem, and have taken a lively and kindly intere&t in Ms prominent career, ami desiring to make an expression of our esteem and re spect for h4m have this day met for that purpose as a bar. Therefore, be it re solved: "First: That from our personal associa tions with him while a member of this bar, and our knowledge of his career since ho left us, we know him to hae been a lawyer, gifted with a happy tem perament and a fine legal mind, and pos sessed of much learning in the law and the highest attributes of moral character and that he brou?sht great credit to him self, and to his friends and the profes sion.

The speaker came to bring tidings from the west of the suc cess of the son and brother from Indiana. "Judge XVm. J.

"WILL FEATHERINGILL, Secretary." INDIAN TRIBES WILL. VANISH Commissioner .Tones Gives the Pro cess Twenty-Five Years to Aet Guthrie, O. T. Nov. 20. The annual re port of the commission of Indian, affairs, William A. Jones, besides reviewing the progress of affair In all branches of the service, urges more schools, more 'syste matic methods, study of individual traits, and consideration of subsequent environ ment in outlining studies In the Indian schools. Tho entire educational system fo the Indian office, he says, is predicated upon the final abolishment of the anomal ous Indian reservation system. There are jiow 20,522 boys and girls in attendance upon the various Indian schools out of an enrollment of ovenK.OOO. The Indian pop ulation has remained stationary and there has been such a steady Increase in the number of Indians blng educated as to warrant the opinion that tho next Quar ter century will witness, not a dlmunltion of the Indian population, hut an extin guishment of Indian tribes.E One dis couraging factor however, Is disclosed by tho unsatisfactory results of the pas nine years trial of co-education of the Indians with the whites in the public schools. Tho report says the results of this co-education are not commensurate Aycr's Hair Vigor tamly the most economical prep aration of its kind on the market. A little of it goes a long way.

I know it would help many a suffering woman, if she would only use Warners Safe Cure." with the expenditure; that the idea theo retically is an admirable expedient for breaking down prejudices and civilizing the Indian, but the figures show it is not an unqualified success. The full-blood, who needs such contact most, Is rarely secured and the ground work, at least, of Indian education must be laid under the government's auspices and contral. Stronger measure for forcing the attend ance on Indian schools are urged. There are 2,562 employes in the Indian service and thepollcyls to employ Indians in every position to which they ar adapted by nature and education. A thorough and exhaustive investigation of the Seminoles in Florida 3ias resulted in the discontinu ance of the offices of industrial teacher and other employes, and no school will be established for them at present, their real and fancied -wrongs 'having embittered them against governmental assistance. Tho removal of the Parrls school In Southern California and rebuilding It in a more suitable locality will be recom mended to congress. Concerning the Indian territory the re port severely arraigns nepotism, lack of management, demoralized conditions and a deplorable state of affairs generally In administering the schools and orphan asylums of the five Indian nations. Out of twenty-one boarding schools not more than four of the superintendents are re ported competent to teach the ordinary English branches, and the financial mis management is especially complained of. Reporting on the Chippewa outbreak of last autumn, Commissioner Jones says: For many years Chippewas have been ar rested and taken from thir homes to St. Paul and other points as witnesses or offenders, chiefly ini whisky cases. Often wholesale arrests have been made simply for the fees which would accrue to the of ficials. Indians have, been helped to ob tain whisky by the very ones who arrest ed them for using it. In some cases In dians carried off to' court have been lef to get back the best they could. The whoel matter of arrests by deputy mar shals Tiad come to be a farce, a fraud, and a hardshiD to the Chippewas and a disgrace tothe community.. But neither does this by itselfe xplain the outbreak. When a delegation, of Ohippewas visited Washington last "winter their most bitter complaint was about injustice in the use of their funds, and frauds in the disposi tion of their timber. Without going into details it is sufficient to say that in 1SS9 tho Chippewas were with difficulty in duced to cede to the United States large tracts of valuable pine lands on tho rep resentation that ,tho sale of the pine would bring them a fund of several mil lion dollars. As is always the case, many Indians were utterly opposd to to the ne gotiations. A commission was appointed to make allotments on ceded anl reser vation lands and to secure removals to White Earth of those who were willing to go there. Estimators were appointed to appraise the Chippewa pine. Tho. expense of both Is charged to the fund ofthe In dians. The expense of tho commission up to date has not been less than $200,000, most of it in salaries. The work of the estimators proved worthless, and a sec ond set of estimators was appointed with no better results, and a third st of them was assigned to the work. Up to date about J2SO.O0O has been charged to the In dians for estimating. Meanwhile large tracts of pine, which had been estimated at from one-fourth to one-half their val ue, were sold, and that loss also fell up on the Indians. Again, tinder authority to dispone of dead and down timber, con tractors havfjeut large quantities of green stindlnar timber. There are also strong indications that considerable timber was fired to bring to nominally under the head of "dead" timber. This was another los3 to the Indians. All theso and other minor influences together wrought to pro duce the general feeling of oppression which found expression when the ar ets were undertaken by aid of the mili tary force."

SAYS THEY MUST -BE PAID For 1898, Before any Lenien cy Will be Shown- Guthrie, O. T., Nov. 20. The Pawnee Times-Democrat says: "The case Involv ing the question of the payment of taxes by the Osage cattlemen, has at last been settled, and in favors of Pawnee county. The cattlemen contested, the entire tax, but laid particular stress upon two prop ositions: First, that they were not lia ble for tax upon any fcue the court and territorial fund; second, that they wero rllable for tax, for any fund on through cattle.' Through cattle are those which are brought to tho pastures in spring and are sold in the fall, not be ing wintered in the reservation. It will be remembered that the 'board of county commlssibners a short time since, be lieving that the county attorney jva3 fa vorable to the release of these cattle from taxation, employed Horace Speed to look after1 these cases on behalf of the coun ty's Interest. Mr. Speed took tho casa and handled it well. Ex-Chief Justice Frank Dale appeared for the cattlemen. Judge Hainer, In deciding the case, said that tha cattlo were all liable for the tax. Those on all funds. Those taxed in 1S93 would taxed for IS9S w3uld be required to pay pay only on thVr court and territorial funds. The cattlemen, gave notice to ap peal on he'lS93 tax, and the judge told them it would be granted upon the de posit by them of sufficient cash to cover all taxes and costs. They then wanted an Injunction against the sheriff to pre vent his collection of taxes for 1SS9, upon whJch they were given to understand that they should pay -their 1VS taxes, as an evi dence of good faith before asking further favors. Judge Hainer cannot bo too strongly commended for his determina tion to see that Pawnee county is not de frauded. And his strong and decided stand in the matter will no doubt speed ily change the present attitude of the cat tlemen who, if they could use the court, would by injunction defer the payment until tho day of judgment." ANT1-SAL00NERS IN HENNESSEY And What tho Kicker Has to Sny on Saloon Matters. Guthrie. O. T., Nov. t0. The Hennessey Kicker gives lt3 views on the work of the Anti-Saloon league in the following arti cle: "The Anti-Saloon league held a rousing meeting at the Methodist church Tuesday evening. Ringing -temperance ad dresses were made. That intemperance is one of the greatest evils that exists there is no doubt, hue how to check and control it is a question that has long been agitated by the people. When it come to the question of 'saloons versus 'home,' you can count on the Kicker being on the side of home. We have no -word to offer in the defense, of the saloon, but so long as the liquor traffic offers a good financial investment, just so long will we have saloons. Teach the rising genera tion .tho evil and injurious effects of strong drink, not only from a moral standpoint but upon the body as well as tho mind. We are not a prohibitionist. We have seen too much of that In Kan sas. It Is Tiot practical and'never lus been. There is too much a spirit of free dom about the American people to ac cept prohibition so long as ithe article Is to be had. The average American Is a queer bird. Generally when you say he shall not do so and so, he wants to as sert his independence by doing it. As we understand It, tho Anti-Saloon league Is not for the purpose of driving out sa loons, but for the purpose of forcing them to obey the law, and In this they should be Tieartily encouraged. The Jaws of the territory are very liberal to the saloon keeper and he hould observe them faith fully, but he does not always do so. Not only once, but at various times have we seen boys of ten to twenty years of age drinking beer at tha saloons. Especially Is this true an the occasions where some one buy3 a keg and has It dished out by the. saloon keepers. For his own pro tection, the saloon keeper should be very careful In selling liquor to minors."

se Wkhtt MxiU gaIs; x&s$.x I&jmmxrj, fonemtoa: 21, 1899 Hi II Very Firm Tone But Way Too Few Hogs, TOPS STILL AT $3,77 1-2 Practically No Cattle Market Little Received. The local hog market yesterday was Eteady with a light supply. It was a fair day for Monday and considering the un favorable shipping facilities; that Is fair as the old rale up to three weeks ago treat, but as compared -with the better supply of late It wa a falling off. It was especially disappointing to the buy ers, as they all were on hand early and until late for hogs and could have used many tfmes the number actually received. ItokTs heavy trade of last week made them more keenly anxious for hogs today and they did not get a quarter of what they would have readily taken had they uppeared. The same was true of two other Arms, 3ennett Riley and Cudahy, ail being In the fleld for their 'respective grades. Dold got about two-thirds of i:iem. The market was steady and this uotation ruled for about all the big mar kets, the receipts being generally only .st normal. The lighter run of receipts i.as not unlooked for here, though at the came time just as disappointing. The iieavy roads from the heavy rams of late, of course, shut off almost totally the wa con. and local trade, while it had not a .:ttle effect on the outside car shipments, sunday was unfavorable for getting hog3 tj the various shipping: points and rail way pens, and the coming of hogs from a long distance in the Oklahoma country shows this was the case, as the usual shipping points nearer this market were the ones most notably absent. It wj.a rot at all surprising, the slight falling cff and a few weeks ago wou.d not h&vo teen noticed, but now the market is so very strong and the added list of large buyers being here, made It the more dis appointing. The buyers took what they could get and were patient and will con tinue to be on hand and pay strong lib eral and firm prices for any old kind of a hoe that is not "government." Send tnem in, every one who has any, and see lor yourself if there was ever a better time or a more favorable market than right now and right here. REPRESENTATIVE SALES. w No. Ay. Wt.

Among, the old-time shippers to this market, but absent of late, was the re turn of Campbell Horton of Caldwell, Mr. I. M. Horton being in charge. Their ad was medium lights and sold on the irly market at top prices. Mr. Horton s all 'stock and agricultural interests re looking fine, the late rains fixing heat nicely. The country all through "re he says has plenty of fine fat hogs r- ady for market. J. G. Gibon of Xildare was a shipper of i cdiams, which sold on the opening at top of the day. A. Garland of Kiowa .was another j- utbern consignor with heavy hogs, v lien sold at a good market price. harlie Dorsey of South Haven was in I rson on the market with heavy hogs, v -lien sold at a good figure. Frankie Shepherd, one of the very p icceseful Oklahoma live stock handlers ':d general merchants, were shippers I m Pon Creek of a car of medium heaviee, which sold at a good firm figure. A. M. Fritse of Ponca City sold on the cl'jse, a car-load of heavy hogs at the I '-ular bulk figure. There was no cattle sold to make a legi t mate quotation, it being to uncertain f t the drivea-ln trade and none of sale E'ock received by shipment. There were 1 uyers for fat beef stuff and feeders and tney would have received a good price. most of the cattle markets being steady -j ivGd. tiwvc giKuva, uuiv.a lower. Among: the visitors at the yards on islness was Hon. M. C. Campbell of this tj, chairman of the State Live Stock t- .nitary commission. Mr. Campbell is i t only a cattle expert from long ex perience, hat for many years was can r cted with the industry at this point, nng formerly one of the then largest -amission firms at the Union stock .rds, that of Eldridge Campbell, suc- ded some years ago by William M. uugh ft Co. Every now and then one hears of a ckman who has a severe ardent yearn i? to experiment a little and leave the 7- nervation long enough to get nipped by lei hard relentless fate. To remain v.th what has proved remunerative Is ways better than to tackle some chance i which the possibilities f failure or ccess are not better than an even .ak. One of these some time recently r.cioded to try another market for his e liptnnts of hogs, and he made just one en the aew deaL He sent a car-load of hogs of the very grade most wanted here titd oq a day when prices for all kinds ff-re ware taking a balloon soar upward, i-hipped this car to another point close up t toe mouth of the Kaw. With a sad wan smile of utter self censure he si lently rook himself hack home with the delightful and refreshing feeling that he fad lost in the deal just J250 by dead ligs. All of which will take several profit-making shipments to make up. Yesterday was another strong firm day i ir hogs and every shipper did well. One cutstnn buyer remarked dejectedly that he would have bought ten cars himelf had they appeared. The local packing company weald liked to have killed 1.5m r jKO head today. It is the highest market today in the land and the mo9t nvenlent, both for coming and getting ck agate, to shippers and dealers In s sooth and southwest, and no one i n afford to pass by.

Added to that was one of the heaviest Jobbing, local and express days in weeks, especially for Monday, usually a light day Added to that there were a quarter of a million pounds more of stuff sold for im mediate shipment, all of which is ready in reserve and will go out at once. Added (to that there were 2S3.CO0 pounds of the various smoked grades hung In the smoke houses during Sunday and Sunday night and two more smoke houses emptied to make room for still more. Extra gangs were called out Sunday,, and worked all day and yesterday clear Into the night. It was a big day and for this late in the season a very remarkable day. The sausage department now has from sixteen to twenty men employed, where a year ago there were six to eight with this year added Improved machinery and new apparatus of all required kinds. The tfame of the various staple and standard outs and th'e fins perfected specialties of this house is fast reaping Its reward as evidenced by such days as yesterday. LIVESTOCK lAUKEra. CHICAGO.

DE FACTO CASTRO GOVERNMENT HecogmLzed by "Washington 3Tew Government's Manifesto Issued Caracas, Venezuela, Nov. 20. The Unit ed States government has officially recog nized the do facto government headed by General Ctpnano Castro, the victorious revolutionary leader Washington, Nov. 20. Official adivces received from Venezuela give details of the recent revolutionary upheaval in that country and the inauguration of the new government under General Castro. The program of the government is set forth in the following pronunciamento: "The pop ular movement instituted a few weeks ago in the Occident of the republic by General Castro, aiming to restore the In stitutions of the country, has been pro pitious since the middle of September, under the chief and leader of the victori ous troops, who yesterday (October 23) effected his entry to the capital amiJ universal manifestations of public joy. His first act after assuming power was to wuam me iiueny oi ine jjouuuu jjriMTu- ers. So this triumph, truly national, has been crowned with peace In all homes and tranquility in all hearts. "General Castro received the Investiture of supreme power in conformity with ar ticle 151 of the constitution, and immedi ately began the organization of a pro visional administration whereby the coun try is reconstructed by strict constitu tional forms. By one of his decrees jthe chief of the government nominated the mirrinstry, honoring the undersigned with the portfolio of foreign affairs. There Is opened to Venezuela a new era. of peace which will be to the benefit of all nation al Interests. The program of the govern ment aims primarily at the maintenance of legal order and the continued advance ment of economic interests, I wish you to make known the agreeable situation in which Venezuela is placed after the defin itive triumph of tho popular movement which was instituted and completed by General Castro.' The document is signed by Andueza Pa laclo, minister of foreign affairs, and at one time president of Venezuela. It ap pears in the Official Gazette and copies have been forwarded to Senor Pulido, the Venezuelan charge here. The accounts agreo that all the influential elements have accepted Castro. Among his first acts was the declaration that the present constitution should bo uplveld and that twenty states of Venezuela should enjoy euonomy. Concerning he future repre sentation of Venezuela In Washington, no advices have been received here. The report is that Senor Boleth-Peraza will fbe the new minister. Senor Pulid says his selection is not unlikely, as Senor Bo let Peraza was minister at Washington under President Palacio, who is now min ister of foreign affairs.

SUPREME COURT DECISION Which Doesn't Come, Is an Important Factor. 1 New York, No. 20. The stock mar ket confounded all the prophets by turn ing reactionary In tone. All of the fra ternity of professional speculators came down to Wall Street this morning Inclined to the bull side. Their operations, com bined with an outside demand through commission houses. Invited by last week's course of events, carried prices upward for a brief period, but realizing promptly, became manifest and Manhattan devel oped such conspicuous weakness as to affect the whole list. By noon the weak- nesa had become marked in a number of I tUn li.3n e-wfv-f e- rTV?- n-i e n -IXl?TA' trt j tatioa of a decision by the "United States supreme court in a case bearing on the validity of the new form of industrial combination which has been so widely used in the last year. The In- dustrials rallied considerably when the news came from Washington that the de- cision had not been handed down today, u"he rally was due to operations by room traders, and the explanation of the early weakness came from the same source and was simply an effort to interpret the Weakness of stocks, which was a palpable fact. The renewed weakness, after the rally, showed that the explanation was rather wide of the mark. The sufficient V-iplanation of the downward course of prices was that large holdings of stocks were thrown over last week to take ad vantage of the strong market caused by the bond redemption plan of the treasury department. Last week's burrs find no widespread demand for stocks from the public at large and the market is con siderably over-weighted with speculative holdings waiting to realize. The outlook in the New York mony market con tinued favorable, although tho offerings of government bonds for redemption to day were much smaller than on previous days. The easier money rate caused by the redemption money already released and the higher price which government bond3 have attained, encourago owners of the bonds to hold them. Today's cill loan rate ranged from 5 to 6 per cent. and the movement of New York exchange at Interior points continued In favor of New Ycrk, promising relief from tho pressure for funds from that source. The probable future demands of the sub treasury are more in doubt. The govern ment's surplus tends to Increase again as the month progres?es and the sub-treasury debit balance at the clearing hou today was small, in spite of the govern ment checks for payment of redeemed bonds.

DARING EXPLOIT AT MIDNIGHT Report of the .Destruction of a Ban dits Lair in -Vesrros Last Jnly. Washington. Nov. 20. The war depart ment has made public a report of Captain B. F. Byrne. Sixth infantry, sivinj? an account of the attack and destruction of a bandit village in the La Carlotta dis trict. Island of Negros, last July. The account is a. very interesting- chapter of the American occupation of the Philip pines." The band of maraoders was en trenched in the fastnesses of the moun tains. They were well organized and armed. AH preoautHns had been mala against attack. On all skies which It was supposed could be reached by troops the camp w&3 guarded by bleekhousos. Captain Byrne, with so-nethtap over W9 men. went out to destroy this bandit camp. He was aware that It was neces sary to surprise them, and thl? could only be accomplished by approaching- f-om the side which seemed ixnaoestbte of aiCeat xhe march was difOcnlt and the h performed la r -k nJS was reached in pearly morning and at once attacked; The oan- diis largely outnumbered the Americans J and were fighting from behind cover. For two hours there was a very desperate en gagement, and only the pluck and valor of the American soldiers enabled them to secure the victory. The number of ban dits killed largely exceeded the Ameri can forces while there was no means of ascrtalning the number of wounded. Finally those who could get away escap ed, leaving all their property behind them. The village was destroyed, as was the property that could not be car ried away. The men had climbed a moun tain side at night; thoy fought without their breakfasts against superior odds and upon an almost unknown ground. In closing his report Captain Byrne says: "In looking for a reason for the apparent success of this expedition too much credit cannot be given to the of ficers and men under my command, and every one of thorn acted as though he was personally responsible Tor the suc cess of the whole affair." Lieutenant Colonel Winn, commandlnfr J the Sixth infantry, made the following- endorsement of the report, which is con curred In by Generals Smith. Flinches and Otis: "I consider It a remarkable per formance on his part and that of his com mand in the way of endurance, persvar anco and cool courage under moat trying circumstances. For Captain Byrne I strongly recommend, for distinguished gallantry and rallying the men on tho bridge, a medal of honr; for Lieutenant Nesbitt, a brevet of c&ptnin for coolnesir and courage displayed; and for Sergeant William J. Chuck and Corporal Frank S. Swan certificates of meritorions service. This report contains a graphic descrip tion of a perilous unudertaking most suc cessfully executed, entitling those partici pating to all the honors herein recom mended." In recognition of his service. Captain Byrne was made lieutenant colonel of tho Fortieth regiment. United States volun teers.

MWMMtanw 'fee WLicMhx JpaiXy fgagfc Ituestoa IPsrmtis, Sxruemlrej; 21, 1899 4 taiXtj' A r f5T 31. 31. 3HJRDOCK. Editor agle Lilioukalani and Aguinaldo. For two years past -the Democratic leaders have been .-Ynalntalnlns that the renomination of Bryan "was not only I the Inevitable thing, but that to suggest anything else would toe political insanity. A change appears to be coming over 1 the spirit of their dreams. The situation has a different seeming since the autumn leaves and November ballots fell. The cross of gold and the silver disk have lost somewhat of I their brilliancy. Bryan as an anti-expansionist Is not so attractive as he was as the champion of 16 to 1, in the esti i anation of the average westerner, while the gold standard 'Democrat of the hinderlands desires monetary stability. Too many of the Bourbon masses, east and west, prefer folding on to letting go; prefer holding on to high prices end good times; to holding on to our new insular possessions to say nothing of holding on to protection and prosperity. The personality of the agitator from the Platte is unques tionably waning, and those of his party who are not indif ferent to political success are -viewing his demonstrations nnd ostentatious claims askance. Conceding that Bryan has mot induced weariness by his co-eternal platitudes and pos tings, the conditions have at least changed. Things are so a-adically different from what they were under the poverty 3rices and stringency of the Cleveland administration. If there are more Trusts, there is more trust, one trust being that the Trusts will be more surely wiped out by a progress 's1 e party than by one of negations and repudiations. Ajid nso, as the time approaches when an opposition candidate tmust be named, the elongated countenances of serious heads fyre seen throughout the land in solemn conference over the tperplexlng proposition of how to get rid of Bryan, and for Sine location and identity of the Democrat who can carry his 2arty to victory in face of Manila Bay, Santiago and a treasury so full as to necessitate the buying in of outstand ing bonds. And there is the South, whose Democracy Is un questionably favorable to expansion and opposed to Bryan. The fortunes tf the deposed Lilioukalani and the rights of Aguinaldo, holding no promise of being popular campaign -ries for 1900, the candidacy of Bryan will be as impossible fs one of Cleveland. Neither axe to be thought of. The Dtepublican sympathy which is going out to the Democratic leaders In this hour of party strait, is like that of the spec tator for the bovino that with his tail aloft and his head fbowed in conscious courage, is awaiting In the center of the track the inevitable catastrophe of the awful collision which a train, coming on at the rate of a mile a minute, insures. Woman's Greater Alunificence. Can te open, or public, gift be considered charity? Ov tan a gift to the general public be held to be a beneficence? We doubt. "When the right hand knoweth what the left Jiand doeth the virtue of the charity act is decimated by its ostentation. True charity and real beneficence are rare. The net of the king or queen in becoming a scullion or a servant for charity's sake is a questionable act from any beneficent rating1. However, this Is considered the age of benevolence, par excellence, when charity gifts and public endowments run into scores of millions. The London Spectator credits women with a greater benevolence than men, as shown by fthe large sums they have devoted to charity since they have fb.-en allowed-testamentary powers. During eight years, out of $50,000,000 over which 150 women exercised testamentary 3ower, they have bequeathed more than 25 per cent for re 3 gious and charitable objects, while the proportion given by onen during the same time has been only 11 per cent. There are no statistics for making such a comparison in this country, but the Chicago Tribune says that the total be quests this year to date for public purposes, where the amount bequeathed has been in sums of over $1,000, foot up $20,624,807. Of this sum women have bequeathed $2,231,034 l.3 follows: For educational purposes, SS45.S00; for the church, $533,000; for charity, $12,634; for libraries, $39,000. If the sums donated were added to those bequeathed during the year it would be found that, in proportion to the amount of money possessed by each, women in this country are 2 ore generous than men. The number. of wealthy persons who are disposing of their money during their lifetime is in creasing. Notable among these are Andrew Carnegie, ilr. Rockefeller of New York, Mrs. Leland Stanford and Mrs. Phoebe Hearst The last two ladies have given for educa tional purposes nearly ?4,QO0,O0'0 and the gifts of Mr. Car xugie during the year for libraries alone amount to in er $4,000,000. fact that the moon was shining brightly made the panic of the peasants all the more remarkable, for it proves that the meteors were very brilliant as well as numerous. It ,1s one thing for trained men, on the most favorable elevated points of observation to see "shooting stars" and quite an other for the display of meteors to attract the attention of multitudes of ignorant folk and transfix them with wonder and amazement. If Professor See, of the Naval Observatory at "Washing ton, is right in asserting that the thickest part of the No vember swarm of meteors will not be reached until next year, and the display just witnessed in Russia is to be sur passed at that time, the world may yet see the skies a blaze of darting points of fire before the present generation shall ,pass away. How It Looks at Present. First and last Kansas has boasted many wonderful wheat yields, both in aggregated crops and in extraordinary averages per acre. Only two things are essential to a big yield of wheat In' Kansas, a good stand in the fall and an average rainfall in the spring. With a good stand in the fall there is little danger of winter-kill from either frost or drouth. In all its history South Kansas never had such a uniformly fine stand of wheat as in this fall of 1899. The germination was not only complete, but the plant has so stooled bis to entirely cover the ground, which insures self protection from the effects of a dry. open winter, in case the winter should prove such. That which is true of South Kansas wheat is mainly true of the Oklahoma crop. Hun dreds of thousands of acres are being fed down or pastured to prevent possible stalking. "With an average winter and spring the promise is for a fine yield. "With a propitious season the yield will be an immense one. About Theatre Annoyances. People who go to theaters go to hear and see, to be en tertained and perhaps instructed, not to listen to the crunch of the peanut fiend or the yawp of the gallery god. The hat nuisance has been largely abated, but there are other unpleasant things which survive. The papers of the country are alluding to and commending the act of an actress who went before a curtain of a New York theatre a few nights since and by her scathing reprimand and re buke dro$e some noisy swell offenders from a box. It was Julia Arthur. The high toned snobs were not only disgust ing the audience but disturbing the players. So persistently did they laugh and talk and carry on that Miss Arthur had the curtain rung down in the middle of an act She then appeared before the footlights and made an indignant little speech which had the effect of causing the disappear ance of the offenders, and insured quiet during the remain der of the performance. The actress was loudly applauded. The Molineux Case. The trial of Roland B. Molineux for murder is under way in New York. It is extremely unlikely that a convic tion will be secured. Molineux may be guilty of the crime of which he Is accused, he may be deserving of death on gen eral principles, as lias been claimed by some of his enemies. But courts and juries do not condemn a defendant to death on general principles and will not do so for a specific crime unless it is proved to their satisfaction beyond a reasonable doubt. The evidence thus far brought forward coupling Molineux with the "murder of which he is accused is shadowy and unsubstantial, and will not be enough to fasten the crime upon him. Unless the district attorney has evidence in reserve stronger than anything yet produced in the newspapers or hinted at, the defendant will be acquitted. The Half-Breed Canadians. It is the Britisher of Canada to whom all the trouble over fishing and boundary questions are chargeable. The French and Germans and their descendent half-breeds are inclined to take kindly to this country and its institutions as they are fair and conservative. The more I have seen of the half-bloods of Canada, the more I have come to ad mire them, declares a contributor to Scnbner's. They are of fearless stock, and have inherited many good traits from both races. They regard with amusement and pity their half-brothers, the full-blooded Algonquins of the remote forest, but they understand the arts of wood lore which make' life more than endurable there. They have French, English, Scotch and Scandinavian family names, and any one who thinks they lead an uncomfortable life is very much mistaken. So We Have Got to Crow; Jerry Simpson, soured by defeat, having taken to the vrong side of eveqy public iseue since the inauguration of tae McKinley administration, in an interview at Kansas City th other day declared: "I don't see what the Repub 1 i ana have got to orow over." Th El Dorado Republican mswars the disgruntled accklees statesman of Maltison L ge as follows: They have got McKinley and both houses of congress. They have got Prosperity, Protection, and Ths gold standard. They have got good tims aad good prices. They have got Cuba, Hawaii, Pocto Rico aad the Phil ippine Islands. They have got a strong army aad a big navy. And they have aifao got evrytiibg in Kansas worth ha ing. They have got on the Lord's aide, and the country has got geod crops. They have got the people out of debt, have got the gv crnmeitt treasury full of sW. have got money into every body's pockets, have got ooeaas of turkeys and stfccte of i oney to buy them, white everybody hue got a stalwart nppetite to do his duty by the American bird on Thanks -gn ing. We have lately sot OMo, Iowa, Massachusetts New Jersey and Kentucky; and will shortly g Bryan a Aggie. If jaundiced Jerry will name anything that tJte Republi can part- haen't got, that H has got to get, and that te w orth having, or keeping after it is got, K will proceed u get it with A promptness that it baa always exarcteed In t rting everything that it erer got. So we've got to crow. 9 Plenty of Meteor in Russia. The news of a great panic among the peasantry of Rut eia who believed that the showers of Leonid meteors ob served on Thursday meant the end of the world indicates quite plainly that the earth passed through the thickest I art of the Leonid ewann at a time when America, and western Europe were ia daylight. That aeeme tote thoo "v ious reason for the failure of the observations attempted In this' country. Great Britain, France and Germany. It is clear that the ignorant peasants of Russia would not have been so excited that multitudes of them spent the entire-night in the open air, expectfng jJie end o the world, unle the display had bean atsossUtcr exiraoreiaary. How to Dodge Lightning. A better way of dodging lightning than getting under the bed .or shutting one's self in a closet is recommended by the Scientific American: "Some of the simplest things in the world are the most efficacious. Now, for Instance, if you are afradd of lightning, here's a very simple safe guard to remember simply put on your rubbers and then stand up so your clothes won't touch anywhere. "Whether you are indoors 'or oat of doors you are perfectly safe, for rubber is a non-conductor, and you are completely insulated." There Is only one right the widowers of America hold inalienable to themselves and that is to get married. The American people greatly admire a widower who will not marry again, but few hold out and receive the admiration. -o- It is wonderful how soon we forget. Some day a Httle cable from France will say: "Colonel Jouaust died here to day," and we will be trjing to remember where we have heard "that name before. How the American people would roar and rear and prance If an American army were on the defensive. There is howling even when our army isn't vigorous enough in attack. O Great Britain has probably commenced to realize the fact that a gun in the hands of a white man is something more than an assegai in the hands of a savage. Dewey's son did not appear in the wedding ceremonies of his father. If the young man disapproves of the alliance he has the good taste to keep still about it. O AguinaJdo's biggest surprise is to come. When he is overtaken and captured, the fact that he is not executed will come to be the marvel of his life. Ooebel may not be seated as governor In Kentucky, and in tihe course of half a century may concede himself that he was cot elected. The 'thing to do with the J. "W. Taylor in New York har bor with bubonic plague is to burn her and the coffee she is laden with. The beating Is ail in fovar of Aguinaldo getting- away. And if he does the Washington oillctels will heave a sigh of relief.

Evidently the Boers' plan outside LadysmiUi is to re duce the garrison's ammunition before storming.

They had been talking on general topics for some time the Author, the Girl, and the Fool. The Fool sat before the open Are, with his elbows on his knee3, playing with the sputtering canneL After a few minutes of silence the Glri asked the Author: "Do you not find It difficult to write your stories? How do you do It?" "Yes, It is hard; but I find my greatest difficulty In finding plots." "Then the rest is not so hard?" "No, but stiil hard enough. Once I have my plot the other things seem to come pt themselves. The situations work out naturally; the conversation is the natural outcome of the situation; they are what any reasonable person would say under the conoitions." "But it would seem difficult to me," went on the Girl, "to change the point of view for the different characters. It is necessary, to make conversation, that things must be looked at from different directions." "Well, It is like this." replied the Author. "Even to ourselves we look at both sides of the question more or less. This faculty, developed, makes It easy to discuss questions through our characters. I often let different people represent my haraters, and, by direting the onversa tlon, get many valuable hints." "Then even the most humble of us are sometimes your at's paw?" half ques tioned the Fool. "Yes, I find many people useful for my purpose," was the reply. "And then, for my desriptions," she went on, "I build or transport them bod ily from plaes and things that I have seen. The mind of the writer must al ways be alert and in a reeptive state, and be able to take advantage of what the moment has to offer." "I should not think that plots would be difflult," spoke up the Fool, after a pause. "There are dozens of them In the every day life about us." "Indeed?" questioned the Author, with some disdain In her tone. "Perhaps you an eluldate us; or it may be that you would prefer to start a bureau for the assistane of embarrassed authors. Plots, characters, situations, etc., furnished on short notice; consult us before going else where." "It might be a good plan," was the re ply, apparently perfectly oblivious to the sarcasm in her voice. "But suppose you try your hand at It," put in the Girl, with a touch of kindness in her tone, "I am sure that it would be interesting:." "Yes, do," added the Author. "Take a man, young, poor and ambi tious, with an ideal. He need not be brilliant or an exception, most any ordi nary man will do," here he paused for an Instant. "Yes," suggested the Author. "And also a girl," he continued. "No story is complete without a girl. Let her be ambitious, poor and beautiful. The last two always go hand in hand. In stories. To make it more realistic, still, we will suppose that Oier mother is a widow, poor, and with no other support." "Yes, yes, go on," put in the Author eagerly, as he paused. She had taken up a notebook and was making a memoran dum now and then. "We will suppose that the man loves the girl," he went on. "And does he tell her?" asked the Author. "No, why should he? If he married her he would drag her down to a life of misery; 'that is, poverty, they are the same. And then there Is the mother." "And then?" "And then the other man comes. He is rich, and, we will say, handsome. The resolution of the poor man weakens; he goes to see the girl and finds the other there. He curses himself for a fool and goe3 pway with new strength In his reso lution. "He was a fool," broke in the Girl, im pulsively. She had been standing at the window, with her back to the others, and (drumming on the pane. Idly. As the Fool had gone on, she had been drawing a rin gon and off her finger irresolutely. "Yes, he was a fool," acknowledged the Fool, "but what would have become of his ambition, and her? And then, there is the mother, too; we must not forget her." "And then?" put in the Author. "And then came the end, the author must supply that," said the Fool. "I must be going," said the Author, putting her notebook into her reticule. "Thank you. Sir Plotter, for your good ness." I may take advantage of it some dar." ii The Girl started to follow her friend, then paused and hesitated. "Yes, he was a fool," she heard him mutter to himself. She turned again and went to the door, there she paused again, ard looked back. "Come. I must hurry," said the Author, impatiently. "Was that not a foolish lot of stuff that he gave us?" she went on. "Yes, but then he Is a fool." said the Girl, with a sigh. Chicago Tribune. o municipal flatter. Milwaukee has started plans for a Dewey monument.

The Hutchinson Eouthern intended to go east from Cross and graded about a mile. The Pond Creek Vldette lost a sub scriber because it printed that letter from Bob Ingepsoll in his new location. The Rock Island rails were to reach Billings yesterday, but the track-lajers were probably delayed by the weather. The death of Farmer Taylor on the rail road near Waukomls is another Instance that tramps are not always harmless. The Missouri Pacific, if It breaks into the territory at all, will probably pass through Enid southeasterly to Guthrie. The question of what road Is behind the Augusta branch will soon be settled. The road which furrilsh the rails will be "it" Some man could make a fortune in (western Oklahoma by finding a chemical which would neutralize the gypsum In water. Sid Clarke has a good-eized fight on him and he will have to scratch gravel if he gets to go to Washington as statehood lobbyist. If the Missouri Pacific gets the Augusta grade the Santa Fe and probably the Rock Island will break in the same direction. Some' former Nebraskan should write a letter to Thurston congratulating him on his marriage and put in a postscript for free homes. The selection of Mr. Scothorn by the Supreme court gives him a distinct ad vantage In the race for the United States attorneyship. Stillwater has been such a fine town without a railroad that when she gets one the country expects her to just get up and outshine all others. J. J. Burke, editor of the Norman Transcript, ought to have a dally paper somewhere in Oklahoma. He has a nose that was cut out for news. Tom Ferguson's catch of tha rumor that Scott and Jenkins had fallen out by agree ment in order to keep Flynn from fighting Scott's confirmation was a funny one. Just at present there is a wave of crime running over the territory. Perhaps the courts are not quite vigorous enough in their sentences, or the Juries are too lax. The hold-up at Dixie near Cleveland the other day, which the victims thought at first was a joke, was In fact one of the funniest things that ever happened In Ok lahoma. Judge MoAtee and Temple Houston had a wordy encounter at Enid the other day. The first formalities of Texas and the first families of Maryland will have to get together. Those papers in Oklahoma which are for the anti-saloon league are rejoicing in the way the league cut down the ma jority of the Republican candidate for lieutenant governor In Ohio. Frank Dalton, one of the Dalton broth ers, was In Tonkawa the other day. He Is a sign painter. Tom Fry looked him over and said his appearance would Indi cate considerable determination. The man who spread the story through Cleveland county that a mule-buyer from thl Transvaal was in Norman and got the farmers to bring in their bray-factories, if caught should be put In the violent ward of the asylum. Okarche Times: George Swain, one of our farmers whose word is taken without questions marks put after It, says he haa a curiosity on his farm in a duck that crows. Last spring one of his hens wanted to set, and hunt as he would he could find but twelve eggs to put under her, so he made up the required number by putting in a duck ess- In due time all tho eggs hatched out. George sas on his honor that the twelve chicks were all hens and as soon as they were oM enough to leave the mother hen, would fall in line and follow the duck around the barnyard. The duck-when he wishes to take a swim, will scratch on the ground and cluck until he has called the hens together, when he will lead off to the tank and plunge In, and the hens row up on the edge and enjoy the perform ance. o o-S-S-'3 Geo.

BUILT CAREY HOTEL IN '87 "Must be Honest With Our selves," His Life Motto. Ex-Myr John B. Carey died suddenly at hte home in San Jose, Cal., Sunday afternoon, aged 71 years. His son in this city, Charles Carey, received the sad news by wire Sunday night. No funeral ar rangements have been made, but It Is thought the remains will be taken direct to Clinton, I1L John B. Carey was born in the South of Ireland, June 21, 1823, and -was at the .time of his death 71 years of age. Early in Hfe he cam to America, together with three brothers, the lads all being at tracted to the new and bounteous land across the Atlantic These three brothers were Christopher Carey, who was in the civil war and died shortly after return ing from the war, and "William Carey and Joseph Carey. The latter two broth ers were residents of Cleveland, Ohio, and both have died within the past year, a circumstance which loosened John B. Carey's hold on life, for he loved his brothers dearly. From Cleveland, Ohio, Ex-Mayor Carey moved to Blooming ton, Illinois. He remained but a short time there, moving- to Clinton. At Clin ton he met and married Miss Bennett. His first wife is buried at Clinton, with two of their children. The third, "Will Carey is living in Chicago. From Clin ton, 111., Mr. Carey moved to Maroa, where he, as before, prospered, being en gaged in the lumber and live stock busi ness. Here at Maroa he married Miss Mary Elizabeth Myers in 1S65. They moved from that place to "Wichita, in 3S74. Mr. Carey at once went into the Jumber business and prospered here while his family of boys and girls grew up about him, each as he reached the age of manhood,- developing some business trait or talent which rejoiced the fath er's heart. Mr. Carey's business career is well known to these citizens. The Carey Lumber company was known all over the west and prospered and grew under progressive, shrewd business man agement to great pr portions. It after ward became the Rock Island Lumber comiany. At two different times Mr. Carey served as councilman and later as mayor of the city, when he was chosen by a big (popu lar vote. He was elected in 1S9L The Carey 'hotel, which is known wherever Wichita is known, wa3 erected by him In 32S7, and was a demonstration of how certain he was of the future of "Wichita. He had and has large business property interests in "Wichita, and in California. His residence was always here. His original Investments in California were made about the time of the boom here. The last time he was in Wichita was in the fall of 15. He has been in California since. He was a member of the Knightb of Pythias, the Odd Fallows, and had taken all the Masonic decrees. Those of the family who survive Mr. Carey are Mrs. John B. Carey, "William P. Qarey, Chicago; Charles Carey, "Wich ita; Lulu Dowden, Vichlta; Edward Carey, San Jose; Joseph G. Carey. Chi cgtr Elisabeth Carey, San Jose. Mr. Carey was a irian of shrewd busi ness judgment. He had full feith In the future commercial greatness of "Wichita. but he at the same time was not misled by the excitement of the boom period He distinguished between business and speculation. Foreseeing the result of speculation he governed his actions ac cordingly. "While he did not speculate, neither was he wanting in faith in the future of "Wichita. He evidenced his confidence by holding good property which now belongs to his estate. In his private letters to his family here he con tinually expressed his confidence, and as the times grew better and he received en couraging: news of "Wichita's advance ment, he signified his -pleasure and re newed W? hopeful predictions. His love for the city was indicated in one of his letters, in which he indicated his wish to be able to return to "Wichita, that he might end his life here. He had been in poor health for two yearc past, and real ising his declining' condition, his thoughts were upon "Wichita, the place he looked upon as his true home. It wag here he wished he might be when the end came. Mr. Carey had the opinion that busi ness methods should be strictly applied In the administration of city affairs as well as private concerns Thus he had an ambition to be mayor of "Wichita. In ISH he was elected mayor by an over whelming vote. Business men. laboring men. Democrats. Republicans, rich men, poor men. practically all classes of men had decided to make John B. Carey mayor, that he might put thoe business methods in vogue. "When Inaugurated as -mayor he announced his policy, w hlch tuas to be one of economy. All bills were to be paid out of the gW-al fund on hand, and not to be left 1o add to the bonded debt. Xo laborer was to go with out his nay. He was not only to be paid, but to be paid promptly. While there was to be economy it was such economy as was consistent with a progressive city government. Mayor Carey's administration followed that of Mr. G. W. Clements. The idea, of Mr. Clement's administration wa to give aatptoyaient as could be dona to laboring men y the city. The city had, passed through he boom, which was followed ny the building boom, and there were many mechanics u,of employment. It was argued that to eive them employ ment te partes streets. buildin- sidewalk and -other public improvements would tide them over tfeat critical period, and ah city would then adjust Itself to its prop er conditions. Thus the administration of Xt. Clement was one of unusual public Improvements. Mr- Carey's administra tion was on a different Hue. He was not ta sympathy with the Idea- that it would J serve any useful porpsee in she ksn run to engage men on nobOd works because they could find no work to do In -ariwu enterprise. So his adrainlstraHan was one of economy and he would not willing ly build a s'3waik without ravney to pay for it. Th mw Mr Carev stuck to BEECHAHf SPILLS cure bilious and nervous Ills, sick headache, disordered Uver and impaired digestion. IO cent and 23 cents, at all rp stores.

Mild, gentle, certain, they are worthy your confidence. Purely vegetable, they can be taken by children or delicate women. Price, 25c at all medicine dealers or by mail of C. L Hood Co., Lowell, Mass. through his term of office, and at the end of his first year's administration he said: "And with a reduction of nearly half a million dollars in the assessed valuation of city property, it necessarily cfJmpelled me to; double roy efforts in strictness of economy tb attain the favored point to which we have already reached in tho short space of one year. Since the begin ning of my term no bonds have been Is sued to further load the overburdened lax-payer for sidewalks and grading and such other improvements that should al ways toe paid out of the general fund on hand." After referring to a number of damage suits settled and ihe extras paid for the city building, he added: "No laborer or employe of the 2ity was ever forced to discount his time or wait longer for his pay than the time required to verify and audit his claim." Mr. Carey was a great believer in the board of trade as it then existed in Wich ita. He believeck that the board had by its concerted and united action accom plished a great good for the city. If that was true for one thing, why not another, if true for a board of trade, why not for the city administration His motto was: "In order-nto make our administration suc cessful we must be honest with ourtehes and honest with the people. Let there be no contention among the councU ex cept that noble contention, or rather emu lation, to see who can hest work and best agree." He was a man of struct Integrity. He was a friend of laboring men and made special efforts during his administration to see that they were paid and paid promptly. This was a promise he made at the beginning of his term, and a sub ject for congratulation afterward that he had kept that, resolve. When he Anally made up his mind it was practically im possible to change him. He came to' con clusions promptly and was usually right. He would not be moved by mere per sonal Interests if he did not believe the position to be a correct one. This was his motto in private as well as in public life: "We must be honest with ourselves." In the death of John B. Carey Wichita loses a fnend, a friend who believed In her future and evidenced his faith by his work. He was never pessimistic but al ways hopeful. "When property fell in price from the boom rating it was not a matter to make John. B. Carey become a critic and dlspair of -the city's future. He had largo property interests in thi3 city and county and was easily the rich est man In the city. He made a will but its contents are not now known. The funeral arrangements have not yet been made, but will be announced todav. CASHED A BOGUS CHECK Otto Kopplln or City Hotel Worked by aistar Hoarder Otto Kopplin of the City hotel, Is look ing for one of his star boarders, Mr. Chas. "West, who has skipped out for parts unknown, after having passed a bogus check on Sir. Kopplin for $50 a few days ago. West was a railroad employe, and is said to have come here from To peka a few months ago He had boarded at the City hotei until his board bill amounted to $15. After repeated requests to settle the bill, "West Anally came in with a check tor $50 and said he was ready to square his board bill. The bank had closed and Mr. Kopplln took the check, giving "West ?35 in change. Next day Mr Kopplin deposited the (check and In a day or two It came back protested by the bank at Topeka, on which It had been drawn. West had left the city. Mr. Kopplin then had to pay to the bank the $50 to make the check good, and he was pretty mad. He wil.ltry to catch West and make an example of him. CATHOLIC FAIR OPENS Auspicions Hrjrlnnins. Despite the Uail II cather. Most unfavorable weather attended the first day of the fair which opened at Garfield hall yesterday, but it seemed to interfere little with the program as out lined for the week. The booths were placed in position, decorated in excellent taste, filled with the handsome articles donated by the friends of the cause and when the band with martial strain an nounced the opening of the fair at 7:30, everything was in readiness for the visi tors. The first night was given to the children, who were admitted free, and they enjoyed themselves as only children can. The ladies and children., present enjoyed the excellent musical program by Professor Blame's orchestra and the antics of the little ones. Today is young ladies' day. They will be admitted free afternoon and evening. HATFIELD JURYTt'iLL OUT 3furder Case tJivcn to the Jury at 3 o'clock. Yesterday.

The farmers of this county are appealed to this year to aid the Wichita Children s Home on College Hill with donations from the farm. uch a c'ggs, butter j chickens, vegetables, fruit, grain or hay The home te growing rapidly.

The project only awaits the securing of proper lots for a site, and this will take only a few days, it is thought. If possible the proprietors want to get located between Santa Fe and Rock Island tracks, and if suitable ground can be secured for the building they will erect an immense fac tory, reaching from one railroad to the other. At any rate, It issaid that the company will erect a building ISO by 300 feet, and probably two stories high. It will be fitted with the latest appliances for turning out their pumps and other articles manufactured by the company. The present quarters of the pump fac tory have been inadecuate for the im mense and growing business for the past year, and it has been known for some time that they would have to sooner or later secure larger quarters. The jrreat growth of their business gave the firm confidence. in the future of their business and the bright prospects of the city as a distributing center, so they have very recently decided to build them a home for their great alant. The move will be heralded with much satisfaction by the many friends of Mr. Buckridge, who started in the manufac turing of pumps on a small scale and has steadily worked the business of the fac tory up to immense proportions. This was added to last year when two sub stantial gentlemen came from Iowa and bought farms in this county. They had some surplus money to invest. They were told that there was a future here for the pump factory, and on investlga- tion decided to invest. This increased the capital of the company ana the extra capital was employed to increase the fa cilities of the plant. The new building will enable them to still further expand, when they will have one of the largest concerns of the kind in the west.

lui.iMiwa4w'naMlswsMwgsvMaBa WStWan glailti &l&: Kts&x fEimttaf, tmtwbxz 21, 1899 TRIED FOB flSMITY Henry Hooker's Two Attempts at Suicide Cause Alarm. HiS STRANGE INFATUATION For a Woman the Cause-Is Now in Jail, Henry Hooker, one of the best known fc-oung men about to-wn, fras tried for in sanity in the probate court yesterday, af er having: made two unsuccessful at tempts to commit suiqlde. The Jury clear ed him of the insanity charge, and Judge Haymaker ordered him sent to the coun ty jail for a few days until he could get over his peculiar spell. His mother had Bled the information of insanity against Ihim, and she and some other members of tthe family -were present at the trial to ttell Tvhat they knew of his actions within the last few days.. It was shown that !he had Tiecome greatly and strangely in fatuated with a woman of low degree with whom he had been living, and it is eaid that the cause of his wild attempts upon his life was -because of the fact that they had quarrelled. The first attempt at suicide was at her ihouse on East English street last Thursday night, -when it is said !he took a heavy dose of morphine. Dr. McCoy was called to see him, but found Oiim in a fair way to recovery when he reached the house. Friday Hooker was been in company with his friends and apparently showed no sign of the experi ence of the night before. He was at the Santa Fo depot at 6 o'clock and is said Jto have borrowed 50 cents from a friend. At that time he was in good spirits, but late in the night-it was reported that he had made a more serious attempt to take this life by means of morphine. His another, learning of his strange actions, had sent to the place on English street and taken her eon to her home on Corliss avenue. It was thought that he would surely die this time, but the prompt and efficient work of the physician saved his life. Thre was read at the trial of young Hooker yesterday the two letters he had prepared before taking the dose that was supposed to rid him of the cares of earth. One was to his parents in which he said that "Babe," the woman with "whom he was infatuated, had not been the cause of his trouble. The other was En excellently worded letter to his friends nnd the pubClc, In this letter he stated that he was going to hell, and dwelt upon ithe sins Kf hH young life. He left the I best regards for his friends. The word ing of the letters sounded well to the ear tind made a great impression in. the court room. Hooker did not show the least sign of Insanity when interrogated by Judge Haymaker. He was as genteel in his imanner as he has ever been In his asso ciations among his chums and business friends, and when asked by Judgo Hay maker why he persisted in acting the way he did, he said: "I was just acting (the fool, I guess." At the conclusion of the trial Judge Haymaker gave Hooker a. good lecture, which seemed to do the young man good. He then ordered him taken to jail. Mrs. Hooker was greatly interested in her son. She seemed to real ize -what a. strange power the English street woman had exercised over him, and her great desire was to break the frce of that power, and then, she seem ed to think, the young man would be himself again. It was mostly for this reason that ho was sent to jail. Hooker Ecemed to regret his actions very much n"ter ho got to jail, and said he was go ing to live a better life hereafter. "Bab" the woman who caused all the trouble, is said to be a specialist in allur ing young men to her own way of living. She fishes for tlnm and gets them In her X ower before they have hardly reaiiked their danger. She was arrested last night and put in the city jail. The police think they will order her out of the city. VOLCANIC ISKDPTIONS Are grand, but skin eruptions rob life of ji. Bucklen's Arnica Salve cures them; alsj Old, Running and Foer Sores. Ulcers.

He is a great success as the editor of the Tombstone Inscruptlon the man who goes after delinquent subscrib ers with a shotgun. Harry De Vere, his namesake, as "under dog," is one of the funniest kind of characters. His violin specialty is all right, and he shared with the best of the evening. The entire com pany was very satisfactory. Slater, the bartender, was also especially good. Geo. "Wallen, aa "Hot Stuff," was warm enough, and his jolly gang who sur rounded him did good work. Gilbera Ge rard in his imitations did very clever work, and Joe Waters in tenor solos pleased. Miss Broadmans coronet solos were received with well merited applause, and on the'whole the entire company gavo a fine performance, maintaining the Hoytian reputation for good shows. The nexa Hoyt's attraction will be "A Strang er in Xew York." HOYT'S "A STRANGER IN' NEW YORK." The only company presenting Hoyt's happiest hit, "A Stranger in New York," comes to the Crawford theatre this sea son. As It has scored a success in Lon don, and is now playing to the capacity of the theatre In all the principal cities of Australia, plainly illustrates the popu larity of Hoyt's comedies with theatre goers of this city. Not In this city alone, but everywhere a Hoyt play is presented. Immense audiences are always the rule. Hoyt knows how to draw money to the box office better than anj' other play wright. His great success in this respect lies in the happy faculty of knowing just what the amusement-seeking public wants, and presenting it to them in the right way at the right time, and present ing all his plays in the smaller cities precisely the same way in every detail as he puts them on in his own theatre in New York. He has been catering to the taste of the theatre-going public for the past twelve years, and during all that time ho has never disappointed his ipat rons by offering them an inferior enter tainment. Oliver Scott's Big Minstrel Carnival, which comes to the Crawford Thursday next needs no special introduction to the thatro goers, as most of them are ac quainted with it and the flrst-clas pro gram always presented to them. But as it has always been Mr. Scott's rule to give his patrons an entire change of pro gramo each season, he presents this time as special features Ver Valin and Good man, refined exponents of musical com edy, recognized everywhere as the great est colored musical artists in America; Cassell and Johnson, Arthur Maxwell, the world's champion trick bicyclist; James White and Clarence Powell, America's greatest laugh producers: N. Tio Kitchi, pyramid builder and equilib rist; the great Henderson Brothers, acro batic dancers, and many others, which go to make up tho most refined and ex pensive colored organization in America toilna-. "Two Married Men" set the funny spos to roaring at Greenwall's last night Gay larks wore they on many a gambol peculiar to themselves and others. '"Two Married Men" Is up to date and several weeks ahead. The play is rich in special ties of very pleasing and ingenous make up A-l In song and dance and healthful merriment. Pralso Is due tho whole company, for it fills to perfection its mis sion amusement Morning Register, Ft Worth, Texas. "Two Married Men" will be at the Crawford Thsiiksglving matinee and nhrht Love Is not what it used to be, so sings the poet, well, perhaps the poet is right, for love no doubt has changed as have a great many other things, and there Is one thing in particular that has not changed and positively remains the same, and that is the excellence of the enter tainment presented by Stetson's Uncle Tom's Cabin Co. Unusual enthusiasm has been aroused this time through the fat of the always reliable show coming with even a stronger company than eer before Will appear at the Crawford the atre Friday and Saturday nights of this week, with Saturday matinee. Thomas Jefferson, whose portrayal of "Rip Van Winkle" last season caused o much -comemnt from the critics through out the country for the able manner In which he presented this grand old pla, comes to the Crawford theatre soon up ported by his brothers, Joseph. Jr., WIU hm, and a company of excellent artists. Younsr Thomas has inherited a great deal of his father's talent and is soliciting public approval on his merits. No plav now touring the countrv is so well staged, so charmingly aetd or s grand in conception and sentiment as Iwis Morrison's "Faust" which is this season ma kin c its farewell tour Its ap pearance in this cfly is nt far off. The protracted meetings at the First M E church will continue all this week as the interest is good despite the bad weather of last alght and Sunday and Sunday nljrht At Sunday night's service four young men were at the altar The meetings are growing in spiritualty and will result in much good to the church.

MM DECIDE TO 10 Mr. Stoddard Inspects Large Buildings Six FOR PURE FOOD COMPANY "Advise Building Their Own If They Come. Mr. W. O. Stoddard, Jr., representing the Pure Food company of Newark, N. J., who was in the city lasf week look ing for a building ;in which to out a western branch of the concern, left yes terday for the east The only -filing that will keep the Pure Food company out of Wichita is the Inability ta secure a suit able building in which to place their plant And even this will not deter them long, in the opinion of Mr. Stoddard, for he says his firm -will probably build as soon as he makes hisj-eport on the loca tion and many favorable advantages of Wichita for their business. Every building in the city that possibly could possibly be had for the business was examined by Mr. Stoddard before he left the city, but none of them quite suited him The watch factory oft the West Side was examined very minutely, and barring some obstacles which could be easily overcome, itis thought that that building would probably come the nearest suiting the purposes of the Pure Food company. There would have to be side tracks and switches built from the Mis souri Pacific tracks and the building would have to ibe remodeled considerably. Mr. Stoddard made a cash offer on the building, but it Is understood the offer was lower than the price asked, and there is no show for a deal on the factory building. The old Cox cracker factory building, corner of South Fourth avenue and Wil liam street, was one of the buildings In spected, but it was found to be too small for the business of the company, though the location suited Mr. Stoddard very much. The soap factor building on South Santa Fe (street, adjoining the Santa Fe tracks, was considered to be an admir able location as to shipping facilities, eta, but the building was somewhat ob jected to on account of its dilapidated condition, and the fact that it would need too much repai rand remodeling. The old planing mill building on North Wichita street was inspected iby Mr. Stoddard, on account of its proximity ti the railroad, and was considered a very fair location in other respects, but Mr. Stoddard could not decide on taking it just yet Another splendid location was that of the Wichita Pump Factory, on Water street, between First and Second streets. This was said to suit Mr. Stoddard very well as to location, but they -would be compelled to build there, and this they do no want to do if they can help it, ow ing to a desire to get into business here as- soon as posblble. The Oak street hotel, corner of Santa Fe street and Murdock avenue, impefcs od Mr. Stoddard very favorably as to lo cation aand proximity to the necessary railroad facilities. The&e were all of the buildings inspected by Mr. Stoddard. It was learned yesterday that there was something more to the Pure Food com pany enterprise here than merely the manufacture of their product? of pure food. Mr. Stoddard said the company would operate a canning factory in con nection with their other business, and would employ a large number of men. Ho was more than pleased with the sur roundings of Wichita, and while here studied the railway maps and territory that lies to the south and which is reach ed by the splendid system of railways that (Jead out through it from this city. He took a drive through the country and came back enthusiastic. He said that Omaha had offered to donate a fine build ing to ithe company in consideration of their locating there, but he had declined it, because he considered this a better place for the business. Mr. Stoddard left for Fort Scott and Springfield, and -will write to those with whom he had business within a few weeks. FOR HOARSENESS. Geo. A.

Eldred, Pa,, Nov. 17. The only woman in the world who owns and manages a nltro-giyce'rine and dynamite factory is Mrs. Bryon Alford, of Eldred. She buys all the chemicals, keeps the pay-roll, attends to sales and credits, to billing, shipping and banking, makes fre quent visits to the factories and does a business that aggregates thousands of dollars a month. r The commercial agencies rate Mrs. Al ford at $35,WQ at her own request, but $60,000 would be a closer estimate of the value of her properties. In addition to her factories she owns and manages a large oil lease, controls a dozen or more village properties and recently purchased several hundred acres of wild land that she proposes to convert into a sheep ranch. Mrs. Alford has ao.office on Main Street and a private office at her residence. It was in the latter that the writer found her. Mrs. Alford is a fine looking woman of about fifty, athletic, large, trim, with brown hair and gray eyes. When I entered her private office she was looking up the rating of a firm that had ordered some dynamite. "Credit is about the most important thing in business," she observed. "I aim to do a cash business and am careful about extending credit.' The office is a model of neatness. Pic tures adorn the walls. There is not a scrap of paper on the floor. Bills, letters and orders are filed in cabinets within reach of her swinging chair. On her desk lay a copy of a recently published book of poems and a bundle of unan swered letters held together by a rubber band. A bookcase in the corner was filled with standard volumes, including all the books that have been printed on .explosives. Mrs. Alford taught school fifteen years before she married, and finds Jmany hours In which to keep in touch with the world through newspapers, magazines and books. She told me that often she works at her desk until midnight and enjoys every minute. Her only office assistant is her daughter, Miss Bessie, a finely educated young woman, who assists her mother in keeping, books and business correspond ence. "Bessie is my right bower," jUSs. Alford remarked. "I believe in bringing up a girl to work, even if it is not necessary from a financial point of view. Riches if they fly away, do not work so much hard ship for a girl who has been taught to work." Mrs. Alford's factories are in the for est two miles west of Eldred. The twelve buildings are scattered over fivo acres. Nitro-glycereine factories are always in Isolated spots so that in case they blow up the loss of life and property will' be small. The buildings are detached for the same reason. They are all of hemlock lumber, unpainted and cheaply built. Mrs. Alford explained that brick build ings would look prettier, but were not proof against an explosion, and that it would cost more to replace them. The owner of a nitro-glycereine factory never knows beforehand when it is going to blow up; there is never any one to ex plain how it happened. Mrs. Alford drives a three minute pac er, of which slie is proud. At her invitation I accompanied her to her "nitro-glycereine- farmt" as she forms it. We first paid a visit to a long, rambling building that looks like a sawmill. Inside arc tanks, a steam engine and many iron drums, the latter about the size of pork barrels. The drums are filled with acids and, filled, weigh 1,500 pounds. Before allowing mo to enter the factory the foreman inquired if I had any match es, pipes, cigarettes or firearms oamy person. t "If you have," he explained", 'y6U Wrast leave them outside. Mrs. Alcfrd's orders are very strict. Match heads dropped on the floor are a fearful cause of blow ups, and we don't take any chances." The men who make the nitro-glycereine wear rubber boots while at work. Two acci dents are recorded caused by hob nails in the heels of boots exploding particles of nitro-glycereine on the floors of fac tories. The most Interesting thing was the agi tator a round tank" lined with lead and with coils of lead pipe about its walls. Outside was a wooden tank which acted as a water-jacket. In the agitator are two paddles that make 100 revolutions a minute. Nitro-glycereine is nitric and sul phuric acid mixed with glycerine. The mixing can only be done at a low temper ature. In two hours two men can make 1.0X1 pounds of nitro-glycereine. It is as sim ple as churning. It requires 1,000 pounds of acids and 450 pounds of glycereine to make a thousand-pound "run." When the acids are being run into the agitator the odor cuts the lungs of a tender-foot like a knife. I made frequent trips to the door for fresh air. but Mi-s. Alford did not seem to mind. It is all in setting ued to it. The machinery is tested before the mix ing, which, once under way. must not be stopped nutil the work is completed. At tached to the agitator is a crank which the employees turn if a belt breaks or a pulley slips, for if the agitator stops the thing goes up. For the first five minutes after mixing begins the foreman stands watch in hand Then he grabs a thermometer and drops It through a hole In the agitator cover. The operation is repeated every few min ute. On the aeuraey of the thermometer depends the lives of the employees. While holding his watch the foreman keeps his eye on the glass plate in the agitator cover, through which he watches the mixing. Only cool men have any ausiaes making nitro-glycereine. When the mixing Is done the Itotrid is the color of milk. It Is drawn off late a wooden tank in which Is elghten Inches of cold water. As the milky fluid strikes the water red tnmm light the surface and there is a sound like the hissing of geese. The nntro-glycereine settles to the bot tum and is drawn off into similar small er tanks, churned, wanned with warm water, weighed and 'poured !t etght qwart ease made of heavy lead t r. then carled to the storage magazines nearby. Pure nitro-glycereine is almost color less, and an elghtniuart can of it weighs 25 qounds. Mrs. Alford says that if people are kind to nitro-glycereine they can live with it a long time. One day she saw one of her workmen tossing cans of the exalosive to another workman 'who was placing them in a magazine. Both men were discherged on the spot. Nitro-glycereine makers can earn from $100 to 1150 a month. When an accident ocurs there are always a dozen applicants for the Jobs left by the annihilation of the old employees. It is an industry that has left a red trail of blood on every page of the history of the oil regions Making dynamite is not so dangerous as making nitro-glycereine. Dynamite is nitro-glycereine cushioned in absorbents so that it can be handled with less dan. ger. In the absorbant stock-house there are bags of nitrate of soda, bins filled with wool pulp fine as bolted meal, sacks of kieselguhr and mounds of peat moss. It resembles a country grist mill. The absorbents are taken to the dyna mite house, in which there are numer ous boxes and a long trough. The boxes hold about 500 pounds. The absorbents are dumped in to them and the nitro glycereine poured in. The compound af ter being stirred resmbles common putty. It is shovelled Into hods and dumped in to the trough, from which the fillers force it into paper cartridges dipped in parafino wax to render them waterproor. 'xaey vary from an inch to thre inches in diam eter and from eight to eighteen inches in length. Packed in boxes that hold fifty pounds and marked "Dangerous," the dynamite is ready for shipment. All railroads car ry dynamite at double first class rates, but no railroad will transport nitro-glyc-erlne at any price. It is transported from the magazine to the oil wells in wagons fitted with special padded cell boxes in which the cans fit snugly. Mrs. Alford's factory has a capacity of 3,000 pounds of nitro-glycereine and 6,000 pounds of dynamite a day. The paper cartridges are made on the premises by a machine. Nitro-glycerlno sells for $1 a quart; twenty-five years ago la brought $12 a quart, but the profit is still fair. Mrs. Alford has furnished one firm in the Wyoming salt district two car loads of dynamite a month for several years. The power canals at Niagara were blast ed out with powder from her factory, and the Buffalo harbor Improvements requir ed many tons of her manufactures Mrs. Alford has studied explosoves since 1SS3, when her husband, through the re verses of a friend whom he aided finan cially, found himself bandrupt with only one asset a secret formula for the manu facture of dynamite. To realize on the formula he began the manufacture of dynamite. For a time he purchased the nitro-glycereine necessary to use in the manufacture of his explosive, but when his business grew he built a factory and manufactured his own nltro-glycerine. Mr. A,lford died a year ago, but had been in poor health for a long time, and for six years Mrs. Alford has managed the busines. One of her friends told me a story of her shrewdness that will bear repeating. A bookkeeper employed by Mr. Alford was under suspicion. Unknown to him she kept a duplicate set of books. One day she went over the books at the office. When she found that ?everal sales of nitro-glycereine were not recorded and that the money had gone Into the book keeper's jeans she became head book keeper herself. The most exciting experience Mrs'. Al ford ever had occured shortly after Mr. Alford engaged in the business. Their factory was fifteen rods from the house they occupied. A careless employee in weighing dynapiite one evening struck a match to see the figures. The match head dropped, ignited the powder dust and set off several hundred pounds of high explosives stored in the building. The factory was blown to splinters, the under the debris. When Mrs. Alford, her husband and daughter were dug out by neighbors none of them was seriously injured. "It is an odd business for a woman to be in," Mrs. Alford said, "but I know no reason why a woman who understands it cannot manage it as well as a man. "I buy raw materials for spot cash, take advantage of discounts and sell for cash. I know every night just how many pounds fo material.just how many pounds of nitro-glycereine and dynamite, there is on hand and just how much money in the bank. "As no sustitute for nltro-glycerine for torpedoing oil wells has been discovered, it is likely that there will always be a steady demand. Hundreds of thousands of tons of dynamite are used every year, and the demand is increasing. Unless I should bo unfortunate enough to be blown up accidently, which Is not likely, I don't expect to retire from the business for many years."

Speaking of the union label, Mr. Gompers said that there were thirty-seven organizations now using the label and that it was growing 4n popularity very rapidly. He defended the boycott as a legal and prop er weapon for the workingman, holding that what -he hud the right as an indi vidual to do he was justified in uniting with others to do. In reply to a question Mr. Gompers said that organized labor views trusts simply as their employers. There had been cases in which the or ganiztlons had been benefited by combin ations of capital. It is too early to de cide whether men would 'be more steadily employed by the trusts than by other employers. He said that these "combina tions have more influence In securing leg islation than had unorganized capital. He took a position against co-operative sshemes, saying that experience had proved that laborers secured no greater Ivantages under them than under the wage system. He had no fear of the fu ture for organized labor. The condition of labor was better today than ever be fore and he attributed the improvement to the influence of organized labor. Mr. Gompers favored an amendment to the constitution fixing a maximum of hours per day for labor. Speaking of the ef fect of advanced labor legislation in dif ferent states, he. said there would be no backward step. DONT RISK YOUR LIFE.

GERMANY'S CHANCE IN RUSSIA To Stand France Off and Sell Some Stuff Besides. Berlin, Nov. 20. While ahe czar was at Potsdam recently the general lines of a prospective commercial treaty between Germany and, Russia were reached. Em peror William, the czar. Dr. Von Mlquel and M. Do Witte discussed the situation, "including the financial crisis in Russia. The latter was largely due ao numberless industrial enterprises, especially in iron, started under the Russian high tariff policy, being obliged to curtail their out put, owing to insufficient coal supplies from the south Russian mines. When tho workshops closed for lack of coal prices rose energetically and the minister of finance, M. De Witte, therefore arbitrar ily fixed tho price of railroad material required by the state Tailroads at about 50 per cent below the price demanded. As many of these enterprises were started expressly to supply the Siberian railroad, the result was disastrous. The German and Russian governments take a grave view of the situation, but in Berlin financial circles the crisis is only regard ed as temporary. Therefore, in view of the czar's emphatic declaration at Pots dam in favor of M. De Witte's peace policy, and the believed baselessness of aho reports of Russian advance in Af ghanistan and Persia, they are inclined to further Russia's financial and industrial expansion on the ground that they will thus be subscribing to their own inter ests, in drawing apart Russia and France and in heightening Russia's po.vers of pTtxhaslng German producas. A friend !n need is a friend indeed. That is exactly what Chamberlain's Cough Remedy is. It is the mother's help when she is suddenly awakened in the night by the ominous husky cough, and labored breathing of her babe.

Bock arrived on the French liner Bre tagne, but preceding him had come a cable messago to the customs officials telling that the Providence man. had pearls of great price in his possession. To the inspector Bock declared he had noth ing dutiable. He declard also he was go ing to Mexico at once and said nothing about his business at Providence. So spe cial Agent Thobald and the inspectors made a rigid .examination into his bag gage and his pockets. In- Bock's trunk there were three pair of shoes, tied to gether, heel and toe, and wrapped com pacttly in newspapers. Inside each pair of shoes were many packages of half pearls. There" were two quarts of the' gems altogether. They were of all sizes, and until the experts examine them it will not be known what are genuine and what are Imitation. Thesej half pearls are used extensively in the manufacture of jewelry, but the imitation article is ex pensive. Bpth true and false ar duit able. When the officers had secured all the pearls from Bock's trunk, they ex amined his wearing apparel. In the inside pocket of his -top coat they found a pack age containing forty beautful specimens. In the tail pocket of hU cutaway coat was anothr package, and there- -ware more in other pockets. The customs of ficials are inclined to think thaa the pearls found on Bock's person are gen uine and that the others are possibly im itations. A rough estimate of the value of the entire seizure is- $30,000. Bock does not speak English. He said, he was born -in Austria and had gone from Trieste ao Paris. Special Agent Theobald has learn ed of a trip that Bock made from Paris I to this country in May, and regrets that Bock's toagg-ige was not searched at that I time.

This indicated that the disease had Tun its course and that germs do not exist in the patients." The holds of tho steamer have been tubject to Ifumes of sulphur almost con tinually since arrival. Each hatchway has a shaft to the bottcm for ventilation. It is expected that -the sulphur fumes will penetrate through these ventilators and kill all rats that may be in the holds. The discharge of tho cargo has been delayed owing to the inability of the agents ot the steamer to make the arrangements required by the quarantine officials. When the cargo is discharged the holds will be cleaned and washed down by a eolution of bi-chloride of mercury. Then another sulphur fumigation will be given to kill the rats that may remain. Steam will be also used as a final remedy. The crew will be subject to a detention of fifteen days for observation, to comply with the rules formulated by the federal quarantine authorities.
