St. Petersburg, June 19.—The return of the guard regiments to their sum- mer camp at Krasnoye-Selo indicates that the authorities have definitely ceased to reckon on an outbreak of disorder at the capital following the coup d'etat. This view is confirmed by the action of the revolutionary par- ties in declaring against armed out- breaks at the present time, when the troops are leyal to the government. A high pelice otlicial, however, says that a speady resumption of the terrorist campaign, insluding attempts on the lives of the ministers and other high officials, may be expected, “this, as in the days of M. Sipiaguine and M. Plehve, being the only means avail- able for striking fear into the hearts of government officials.” He also pre- dicted an extensive outbreak = of agrarian disorders in several districts within two or three weeks. The ab- sence of a general strike, however, leaves the administration’s hands free to deal with the riotous peasantry. The province of Vologada, where an agitation has already begun, was pro- claimed to be a place of minor martial law. The guards at the railroad sta- tions are retained. ) Ten of the sixteen Social-Democratic members of the late parliament whose arrest was demanded by Premier Sto- lypin are now iIn the hands of the police. Several Social Revolutionary deputics and a number of members of the first parliament, among them be- ing Ramischwili, Annikin and Tesla, also have been arrested. LOST FOR FORTY HOURS. Tot of Nineteen Months Found Alive and Well. Boise, Ida., June 19.—Toddling along in a wilderness of towering sage brush, his throat parched with a thirst of forty hours, his sturdy legs torn and bleeding from briar thorns, the nineteen-months-old boy baky of Law- rence Marsh, residing near Caldwell, was found alive and prattling to him- self after a search which began with the child’s disappearance and in which a posse of several hundred men was employed. As Henry A. Hanthorn, one of the searchers, led his horse to where the boy was standing the little fellow looked up Wide eyed at the strange man in blue flannel shirt and wide brimmed hat and then at the horse. ““Pony, baby ride pony?” the young- ster questioned with glistening eyes. “You bet you can, bless your little heart,” cried Hanthorn. CLOSE FRIEND OF LINCOLN Prominent Philadelphian Dies at Ad- vanced Age. Philadelphia, July 19.—George Hus- sey Earle, one of the best known citi- zens of this city, is dead, aged eighty- four years Mr. Earle was a personal friend of Abraham Lincoln and until his death was the oldest surviving delegate of the first Republican na- tlonal convention which nominated Fremont for the presidency. He was a member of the local bar and in the early fifties'was an ardent abolitionist and became chief attorney for alleged slaves captured under the provisions of the fugitive slave law. At the close of the Civil war he directed his ener- gies toward municipal reform and he was a conspicuous member of the famous committee of 100 of this city, which conducted a number of success- fu! reform campaigns. FIGHTING IN FORMOSA. Japanese Troops Driving Natives Into Submission. Victoria, B. C., June 19.—Advices from Formosa by the steamer Mont- eagle tell of brisk fighting between the Japanese and Formosan natives. The Japanese have organized drives with a daily extended line, gradually frocing back the natives, who hold three- fifths of Formosa and number 100,000. After months of guerrilla warfare, in which numerous camphor workers were killed, 5,000 Japanese troops were sent to systematically drive the natives into submission. The programme is that each ad- vance fs made permanent by the con- struction of roads, etc. To date 1,378 square miles have been covered in this manner. The natives are fighting desperately. Indictments Are Dismissed. New York, June 19.—Indictments against former Supreme Court Justice Edgar L. Fursman and Charles F. Dodge, which were found in connec- tion with the conspiracy charge in the Dodge-Morse divorce scandal, were dismigsed upon recommendation of District .Attorney Jerome, as were the remaining’ indictments against A. H. Hummel, now serving a penitentiary sentence for his connection with the scandal. China to Manufacture Wine. London, June 19.—China is about to enter the world’s wine market for the first time, according to a publication Just issued by the foreign office. The cultivation of grapes has been going on experimentally for ten years on the shores of the gulf of Chili and has been satisfactory. A British official who visited the vineyards reports that the wines are excellent. Severe Epidemic of Typhold. Calumet, Mich., June 19.—Two more deaths from typhold fever, making ten since the epidemic broke out, oc- curred during the day. There are now nearly sixty cases in the city. Dr. Victor Vaughn of the University -of Michigan has arr{ved here and will conduct an investigation of the drink- Ing water for the state, board of health. ALLNEGOTIATIONS OFF Strike of Commercial Telégra= phers Almost a Certainty. GOVERNMENT TAKES A HAND Commissioner of Labor Neill Arrives at New York to Investigate the Sit- uation and Report Results to Pres- ident Roosevelt. . - Chicago, June 19.—Wesley Russell, secretary of the Commercial Teleg- raphers’ union, has returned to Chi- cago from New York and announces that a strike of the operators of the Western Union and Postal Telegraph companies Is a practical certainty. The announcement was made from the headquarters of the local union that all negotiations for a settlement of the trouble have been broken off. A force of clerks is busily engaged in mailing assessment notices to the members of the union preparatory to the strike. New York, June 19.—Whether a strike will be ordered to enforce the demands of telegraphers employed by the Western Union for increased wages will be made known within twenty-four hours, according to an an- nouncement made at the headquarters of the executive committee of the Commercial Telegraphers’ union. COMPLAINT OF OPERATORS Only a Few Favorites Given Promised Increase in Pay. New York, June 19.—Charles P. Neill, United States labor commis- sioner, has arrived here from Wash- ington to investigate the threateped strike of telegraphers against the Western Union and Postal Telegraph companies. It is stated that Mr. Neill will hear both sides of the controversy and then report to President Roose- velt. The question at stake is the 10 per cent increase in wages which the two companies promised to give on March 1 last. The two companies declare emphatically that they did give the 10 per cent increase, while the teleg- raphers contend that only a few fa- vorites received the increase, while more than 90 per cent of the men are getting even less than they were re- celving March 1. The officials of the Western® Union company will not talk on the subject, beyond saying that there are no griev- ances on the part of those employed by the company. It was said on be- half of the company that there would be no conference between the officials of the company and the parties who have manifested an interest in the telegraphers’ complaints. This would not apply, however, to any investiga- tion to be made by Commissioner Neill as a government official. BY FINE AND IMPRISONMENT Defendants in Idaho Land Fraud Cases Sentenced.

RESEMBLED A TORNADO. Storm Causes Much Damage in Vicin:| ity of New Ulm, Minn. New Ulm, Minn., June 19.—One of the most severe storms for many years passed over this city and sur- rounding country during the after- noon. Many of the citizens while gaz- Ing at the inky blue clouds forming in the northwest horizon had visions of a repetition of the destructive cy- clone which created such vast damage to this city in 1881. The force agd veloeity of the wind was of a tornado like nature. The Brown County Agricultufal soclety suffered the most severe loss by hav- ing the exposition building totally de- molished, the roof of the grandstand was blown off, the reservoir wrecked and the high barn enclosure badly damaged. Several workmen barely escaped death while at work. They soyght shelter in some of the wrecked build- ings. and barely made their escape by seeking the open grounds during the storm. / Small outbuildings and several new buildings in the -course of construc- tion and trees throughout the city were blown down and many rural tele- phone liges are out of service. DISORDER;NCREAS!NG. Bombs Thrown and Many. People As- sassinated at Odessa. Odessa, June 19.—The news of the dissolution of the duma and the em- peror’s manifesto were received with stepefaction by the progressives here who bad not expected the abrogation of the laws so far forced from the government, but provoiced the highest enthusiasm from the Union of True Russians, who celebrated the event with the sanction of the authorities. Since the dissolution of the duma the police have arrested more than 300 persons, including three profes- sors, the leaders of the different radi- cal parties and several families, in- cluding a number of children. Although there are no strikes, dis- orders and terrorism are increasing daily. Bombs have been thrown and people assassinated in numbers. Automobile Goes Into River. Boulder, Mont., June 19.—County Commissioner James B. Maxfield was instantly killed and William H. Pat- terson severely injured when an auto- mobile in which they were riding went over the embankment into the Boulder river just south of here. Maxfield re- cently ordered an automobile and to familiarize himself with the operation of the machine he was taking a lesson from Patterson. BRIEF EITS OF NEWS. Advices from Berlin state that Em- peror William will contribute several special prizes to athletes from Amer- ica wha will compete in the next Ger- man turnfest at Frankfort. 2 Typhoid fever is again epidemic in Pittsburg. Forty-one new cases were reported to the bureau of health in twenty-four hours and since June 1 there have been 228 cases. Francis T.

The earliest anchors of which we have any record were of, wood, and gradually, through the iron anchor of one hoos and the anchor in the shape of a rake, there was evolved the an- chor with the straight thick shank, the two curving arms with flattened extremities and the long cross stock. The process of storing one of these old anchors was a long and laborious one¥ It was hove close up to the capstan or windlass; a man was let down by rope to hook on a huge tackle, by which the anchor was then holsted, still perpendicular, to a stout project- ing timber. Then the lower end hgd to be hoisted up horizontally by an- other tackle and the whole made fast. In the modern stockless anchor a ehain s attached t6 it at the balancing point, and this is passed through a pulley at the head of ‘the anchor davit. ‘When tlie anchor 1s high enough, davit and all swing round-until the anchor is over the. billboard, where it rests and is secured by :chains.—London Globe. B i Sy S Working In Steel Masks. The workman wore a steel mask with glazed eyeholes, a rubber suit, rubber gloyes and rubber bo e ARG LI X carrled a palr of tongs of &llvery alu- minfum, “In certailn departments of the plant;” sald the dynamite manufae- turer, “all our workmen are dressed lke that. They must be, Otherwise they would be smeared with chemicals and splashed with acids that would eat their flesh-like liquid fire.” “But the aluminiuin tongs?” “They are for lifting the gun cotton out of its nitrlc acld bath. Aluminium 1s the only metal upon which the nitric acld has no effect.” He turned to the workman. “Bverything all right, George?’ he said. “So, 50,” came a sepulchral answer from behind the mask of steel—New Orleans Times-Democrat. 8lang of Other Days. Slang has always been a fruitful source for the expansion of language, and instances may be multiplied of words now respectable which were once tabooed as vulgarisms. But, on the other hand. there have been many slang phrases in use for centuries which have never become acceptable to the purists. As long ago as 1750 the celebrated letter writer Horace Wal- pole used to speak of “sitting guzzling” and getting “drunk as an owl.” Then again in the diary of ome of the most prominent woman writers of the eight- eenth century, Frances Burney, are found good slang phrases of the Amer- ican college girl of today, as, for in- stance, “I sneaked out,” “Did you ever know such a toad?” and “I had a vile cold.”—St. Leuis Republic. Hyperbole. _ A Rochester clergyman was accus- tomed to use sclentific terms, which the people did not understand. A deputa- tion waited on him with the request that in the future whenever he used such terms lie would explain them. On the following Sunday lee used the term hyperbole and added: “As agreed on, I beg to explain this word. Were I to say that at this moment the whole of my congregation are sound -asleep it would be hyperbole, but if I say that one-half are asleep that is no hyper- bole, but the truth.” The next day the deputation again called to say that the minister need not explain technical terms. The people would learn their meaning from a dictionary.—Rochester Herald. At His Word. Many postofice names are queer enough to make one desire an explana- tlon of them. Sometimes the explana- tion is queerer than the name itself. A minister in Cass county wrote to ‘Washington in behalf of the residents of a growing hamlet, asking that a postoffice be added to its institutions. The request was favorably received, and he was asked to suggest a name that would be acceptable to his neigh- bors. He replied that they were not hard to please so long as the name was peculiar.” The postoffice department took him at his word, and “Peculiar” is the name of the office to this day.— Kansas City Star. “Since a, 90, er’ Ssupariun Tias Leen entirely free from' alcohol. health, weak, pale, nervous, ask your doctor abouttaking this non-alcoholic tonic and altera- tive.
