Cape Town, March 14.—Gen. French has arrived at Bloemfontein. ~0- London, March 14.—Nothing can be gaid of the advance on Bloemfontein beyond Lord Roberts’ own dispatches. Nothing more has been permiited to come thro Doubtless Lord Rob- erts himself is fully occupied with im- portant mili ons, The dis- patch from C ‘Town saying that Gen. snch has “arrived at Bloem- fontein” probably does not mean that he has entered the city. Lord Itoberts’ me » may mean either that the Boers have cut the railway to the north or that the British cavalry have done so. If the former, then it may be as- sumed that no rolling stock has been seized, but by general assumption the latter interpretation is regarded as cor- rect. This would greatly facilitate ob- taining supplies from Orange river, an important matter, as Lord Roberts’ line of communication at Modder bridge is now 110 miles long. The Boers may make avother fight, but there is little doubt that Lord Roberts will oceupy Bloemfontein to- day.

Lord Salisbury’s reply meets with unanimous approval among Conserva- tives, and it is the universal opinion that the Boers, by their extravagant claims and canting tone, meant to in- fluence foreign powers, have again overreached themselves, as they did by the ultimatum.

STOPPED BY POUICE. Michigan Town Wou Sapho.” mazoo, Mich., March 14.—A per- formance of “Sapho’ was attempted here last night despite the action of the city council Monday night ordering It suppressed. When the performance had been on only fifteen minutes the chief of police appeared and ordered the curtain run down, On the advice of an attorney the management thrice resumed the performanee and each time the police lowered the curtain. A local attorney then addressed the audi- ence from the stage and denounced the city council, urging the citizens to sup- press the present aldermen at the next election. The audience firally dispersed amidst stormy scenes. The managers of the theater threaten to bring damage suits against those responsible for tbe suppression. ’t Stand for I MISSING ALASKAN STEAMERS, Story Published at Junean T the Wolcott Had Been Wreckee Seattle, Wash., March 14. — Two steamers reached here from Alaska yesterday, but they brought no news of the missing steamers Wolcott and Ix- celsior. Juneau newspapers published a story March 5 that a report had reached Sitka to the effect that the Wolcott had been wrecked off Kayak, ‘Alaska. This information. it was as- serted, bad reached Sitka by Indians from the westward who arrived before the Cottage City, which arrived here a week ago, sailed from Sitka. The Cottage City’s o cers say they never heard such a story. A. G. McBride, who is in the city, heard that the In- dians reported the wreck of the Wol- cott as having occurred Jan. 7. As a matter of fact she was seen at Unalas- ka Jan. 24. Fatal Ending of a Card Game.

Admiral Kantz Will Take Up Station on the West Const of Nicaragua. | Washington, March 14.—A telegram was received at the navy department saying that the flagship Philadelphia and the battleship Iowa have ar- rived at Santa Barbara, Cala. The Iowa is on her way up the Pacific coast to Puget sound, where she will be docked and overhauled generally. ‘vhe Philadelphia is bound to the west coast of Nicaragua for the purpose of safeguarding the interests of the Unit- ed States in case of any revolutionary troubles. Rear Admiral Kautz, com manding the Pacific station, is on board the Philadelphia, and will be in command of the American forees on the isthmus. The cruiser Detroit, which has been ordered to look after American interests on the east coast of the isthmu ved at Havana, on her w; to Greytown, which will be her headquarters during her sojourn in those waters. As the Philadelphia takes her station at Brito, the western terminus of the proposed Nicaraguan canal, the United States will be well represented in that quarter. HAS A SIGNIFICANT LOOK, stablishment of the Naval Force on the China Station. Washington, March 14. — Rear Ad- miral Kempff, at present commandant of the Mare island navy yard, has tele- graphed the navy department his ac- ceptarce of the offer of second in com- mand of the Asiatic squadron. As a matter of fact Rear Admiral Kempft’s command will very neariy approach an independent station. Rear Admiral Ren.ey, the nominal commandant of the entire naval force on the Asiatic squadron, is expected to remain in the Philippines, while Rear Admiral Kempff will have a separate squadron cruising on the Chinese and Japanese coasts. The re-establishment of the force on the China station may be a significant fact in view of the repeated hints from European sources of hos- tilities on so large a scale that tbey threaten to involve A: Re- CUANGE OF NAME. The American Liner Paris to Be Called the Philadelphia. Washington. March 14. — Senator Sewell has introduced a bill changing the name of the Paris, of the American line, to the Philadelphia. Three of the ships of the International Navigation company, constituting the American tr: Atlantic mail service, already bear names of American cities—the St. Paul, the St. Louis and the New York. The Paris was wrecked last summer off the coast of England. She has since been thoroughly repaired, and more than a million dollars expended in refitting ber with higher-speed ma- ebinery. The Paris has been repaired in the Belfast shipyards of Harland & Wolff. It is reported that she has been lengthened a hundred feet, making her 665 feet in length. Her boilers have also been increased in number from eight to sixteen. SENATORS IN CAUCUS. Republicans Discuss the Rioan Tariff Bill. Washington, March 14.—The Repub- lican serators were in caucus for two and one-half hours on the Porto Rican bill yesterday afternoon, and at 6 o'clock adjcurned until 2 o’clock to-day, when the discussion will be resumed. No vote was taken on any of the vari- ous propositions Jaid before the caucus, but as a result of the caucus talk the impression prevailed that there was & great deal of opposition to the Dill, which opposition, if it was not placated, might endanger its passage. It was also apparent that a number of other senators thought the legislation was ill-advised, but, while opposed to the bill, nevertheless would vote for it as a party measure. Porto WHITE HAS HOPES. Transvaal Agent Has an Interview With Assistant Secretary Hill. New York, March 14. — Montague White, agent in this country for the Boers, returned from Washington late Jast night, and in an interview soon af- ter his arrival, said: “I had an hour’s conversation with Mr. Hill, the assis- tant secretary of state, and he assured me that he hoped tor a happy solution of the great problem now before us. I canrot. of course, now give details of that conversation. I expect to see Mr. Hill again Friday. when I will proba- bly go to the state department again. I believe that Germany, France and Russia would certainly back up any movement made by the United States government in the direction of inter- vention. WARRANT FOR SENATOR DEBOE. Rumor That He Is Charged With Complicity in the Goebel Assas- sination. Washington, March 14—A rumor was current at the capitol] yesterday that a warrant was to be issued for the ar- rest of Senator Deboe of Kentucky for alleged complicity in the assassination of Mr. Goebel. The senator said the mere suggestion of such a thing is ridiculous, and said he was ready and willing to answer any charge which may be brought against him in that connection. Crusade Against Vice. New York, March 14.—The police last night raided all the concert halls in the tenderloin district, drove the women into the streets and arrested the pro- prietors. The latter were taken to a police station and soon released on $500 bail each. ‘The arrests were the result of the agitation against disorderly re- sorts whicb has lately stirred the city. The crusade began with the suppres- sion of the play “Sapho” as presented by Olga Nethersole’s company. An- thony Comstock soon afterward raided numerous gambling places. Cable to Cape Nome. Washington, March 14.—A bill was introduced in the senate by Senator Foster authorizing the construction by the government of a cable from Rome, on the coast of Washington, to Cape Nome and other Alaskan points, Victims Now Number Sixteen. New York, March 14. — Two more podies were recovered yesterday from che ruins of the Italian tenement which was burned in Newark, N. J. The dead uow numbers sixteen, and five others are unaccounted for. eatin bee WATERING THE LAND HOW IRRIGATION IS PROGRESS-~ ING IN IDAHO. Heretofore Arid Regions Being Rapidly Transformed Into Gardens—Farmers’ Socleties in Many Instances Own the Irrigating Works. (Boise, Idaho, Letter.) Most of the people who farm in the rainfall regions suppose that the irri- Gation of land is a complicated process and that the art of doing it can only be acquired after years of experience, whereas, as a matter of fact, it is about the easiest and most simple work the western farmer has to do, In most cases the children attend to it under the direction of their parents, and any boy of 10 or 12 can do a man’s work when it comes to irrigation. The western farmer is wholly indif- ferent as to rainfall. He ‘doesn’t de- pend upon it in the least. The water that interests him is that which flows down into the valley from the melt- Ing snows in the mountain ranges. These waters he diverts into great canals which run along the rim of the valley about the irrigable lands and are tapped at stated intervals by what are called “laterals” or sub-ditches which flow from farm to farm and out of which the farmer takes the water for his fields. In some cases the waters of these mountain streams are acquired by the community of farmers. along their course, each one holding as many shares of stock in the co-operative canal scheme as he owns acres of land, and being entitled to so many inches of water for every acre of his ownership. This is the usual plan. But when the construction of the main canal, owing to engineering difficulties, is too expen- sive a piece of business for the farmer to afford, irrigation companies under- take the work and build the canal into portions of the country where large areas of land are to be reclaimed. These Irrigation companions are “com- mon carriers” of water and furnish it for a nominal price per acre per an num to the farmer. Sometimes these Irrigation companies own large tracts under their ditch which they sell in small farms with the water right, to settlers at a nominal prices per acre. In other instances they do not own land at all, leaving that to be acquired by the settler under the various acts of congress. Perhaps no portion of the Union is now making such active progress in irrigation development, or is receiving so large a quota of immigrants as southern Idaho. There are millions of unoccupied acres in that state which only await settlement to become as productive as the lands upon the Nile. Efforts are being put forth by the state authorities to bring the advantages of these lands to the notice of the eastern farmer, and the several railroada of the state are engaged in the work. Perhaps the easiest and the best way to acquire information is from the General Passenger Agent of the Oregon Short Line at Salt Lake City, from whence conservatively prepared pamph- lets descriptive of irrigation meth- ods and containing reliable informa- tion about the various localities now open for settlement, are being mailed free. The time is certainly not far distant when the unoccupied public domain of Idaho will be cntirely taken up, a con- dition which will be most unfortunate to those who delay taking advantage of the rare opportunities now offered. Saw a Frozen River Explode. A farmer living near Banker, on the Nebraska side of the Missouri river, had a remarkably narrow escape from instant death as the result of an ex- plosion—not of dynami.e or nitroglycer- ine, but of ice in the Missouri river. Banker was driving across the river on an ice bridge. When about the center of the main channel he suddenly heard an ominous rumbling underneath the ice, and was not long in deciding that something unusual was about to hap- pen.. Lashing his horses into a wild run, he headed for the shore, which he had just reached in safety, when the explosion or “blow-up” occurred. It is said by those who witnessed the inci- dent that large bodies of heavy ice in an area of about a square mile were thrown fully forty or fifty feet into the air by the force of the upheaval. The phenomenor. is said to have been caused by the sudden and extreme change in the weather to colder, the ice forming so quickly and so solidly that no air-holes were left, the pressure of the imprisoned air finally becoming sv great as to force its escape in the man- ner stated, by tossing hundreds of tons of ice into the air as though it were featkers.—Minneapolis Times. No Name for His Colonel’s Home. The colonel of a well known High- land regiment, on retiring from the army, built for himself a snug villa which he named “The Retreat.” His rdener, who was an old soldier from the same regiment, on being shown over the place for the first time by the colonel, was asked by the latter what he thought of the house. é “Fine! But I dinna like that,” said the old soldier, pointing to the name painted on the entrance gate. “Why, what's the matter with it?” “Weel, sir,” replied the veteran, drawing himself up, “ye ken ye never heard that played on oor bugles.”— ‘Answers. a Not Worth His Salt. The above is an expression we eften hear, but few people realize its an- tiquity or its original meaning. It is handed down to us from ancent Roman days, when the soldiers received a por- tion of salt as part of their pay. “Sal” is the Latin for salt, and when in the course of time the esalt was commuted for money the amount was called “salarium,” or salt money. Hence our word salary, and also the phrase, “not worth his salt.”"—Golden Penny. BEING INJURED, HE SUICIDED. After Losing a Foot Under the Cars Hynes Cuts His Throat. Winnebago City, Minn., March 14.— Francis Hynes, a/ prosperous young farmer living four miles east of town, was killed by jumping from a freight train. His body was found beside the tracks opposite his farm. It is sup- posed that he boarded the train with the intention of jumping off when near his farm. Evidently when he struck the ground after jumping he was thrown under the train. One foot was eut off and his leg was_ fractured. When his body was found his throat was cut. It is supposed that he was crazed by the pain and, feeling that he must soon die, cut his throat to end his suffering. if KILLED BY AN EXPLOSION. Fatal Result of Thawing Dynamite on a Stove. St. Paul, March 14.—Axel Cederberg was killed at 8 oclock yesterday morn- ing at Pelham street and University avenue by an explosion of dynamite. His brother, Charles Cederberg, was seriously injured. The brothers were engaged in blasting a cellar for a tene- ment house to be erected at the point named. They have been using dyna- mite and yesterday morning, as the explosive was frozen, they started to thaw out sticks equivalent to four pounds upon a sheet iron stove. ELECTIONS IN MINNESOTA. Cities, Villages and Townships Elect Officers. St. Paul, March 14. — Municipal, vil- lage apd township elections were held throughout the state yesterday. The issues, wherever there were any, were purely local and have no political sig- nificance. The question that appears to have most frequently entered into the contest was the license issue. The result shows that a majority of the towns prefer the license system to the illicit sale of liquor. WEDDING OF TOWNS. Centralia and Grand Rapids, Wis., Become One. . Grand Rapids, Wis., March 14.—The leading wedding event for many years was eclebrated by the consolidation of the cities of Centralia and Grand Rap- ids, carried by a large majority.

Mr. Wilson produced as- sets of vuearly $14.000, and will pay de- positors in full in a few days. Poprtarity Made Manifest. Britt, Iowa, March 14.—The issue in the schoo! election was the retention or dismissal of Prof. A. M. Deyoe, who has been at the head of the schools for the past eight years and has brought them to a high standing equally for the moral aad_ intellectual wel- fare of the pupils. ‘hat the people ap- preciate his efforts was showu by a vote of tures aad one-half to one in his favor. Sp Apoecnt Taken, Winona, Minn. March 14.—The Wi- none y and Light company has oppeates from the order of Judge Snow !y the damage suit brought by James Paimer, in which he received a verdict for $1,800. The judge’s order denied the motion for a new trial and ent down the verdict to $1,200, to which the plaintiff agreed. Coal for Dul oth and Superior. Duluth, Minn., March 14. — Already abovt 1,500,000 tons of coal to come to Duinth and Superior have been covered in freight room at about 50 cents a ton. This ‘s a little more than a third of what coal men expect during the sea- son. For Lake Michigan ports room for about 300,000 tons has been con- tracted Drowning Averted. Yankton, S. D., March 14.—The Mis- souri river has not claimed its annual human victim so far this year, but came pear doing so last evening. A team and wagon broke through near the Nebraska side and the team was Jost. The men in the wagon were saved with much difficulty. Date for lowa Republicans. Des Moines, Iowa, March 14. — The Republican state central committee at a meeting held here selected Des Moines as the place and May 10 as the date of holding the state convention to select delegates to the national conven- tion at Philadelphia June 19. Appointed Adjutant General. St. Peter, Minn., March 14. — G. T. Ives, department commander of the G. A. R. for Minnesota, has appointed Capt. Orton S. Clark of Minneapolis to succeed B. M.

Faribault, Minn., March 14.—George Travis was arrested for forging checks of the Sheffield Milling company which | he cashed at a bank, getting $96. Some time ago he secured a smaller sum from another firm. Beadle County All Right. Huron, 8. D., March 14. — County ‘Treasurer Mahaffy says Beadle county had no money in the Bank of Hitch- cock, which was burned Friday night and its safe robbed of something like $11,000 TRUCE PATCHED UP TAYLOR WILL CONTINUE TO ACT AS GOVERNOR Until the Court of Appeals Decides the Disputed Governorship—Opin- ion Prevails That the Worst Is Over—Republicans Will Make Ev- ery Act to Carry the Case to the Federal Courts in Case the Court of Appeals Decides Against Tay- lor—Legislature Sine Die. Adjourns Frankfort, Ky., March 14.—The leg- islature of Kentucky adjourned sine die yesterday. A conference between Adjt. Gen. Collier and Adjt. Gen. Cas- tleman resulted in a perfect under- standing being reached. Gov. Taylor will continue to act as governor. Gov. Beckham will make no move toward securing possession of the state build- ings until after the court of appeals has decided the disputed governorship. The legislature appropriated $100,000 for the use of Gov. Beckham in reor- ganizing the state militia. This, in brief, is the situation in Kentucky pol- ities. Among the more conservative element in each party the opinion pre- vails that the worst is over and that when the court of appeals renders its decision the danger of civil war in the commonwealth which has been terribly imminent, will entirely have passed away. To the Democratic leaders, with a full understanding of the situ- ation, only one cloud appears on the horizon, and that is Gov. Taylor’s fu- ture course. Gov. Taylor will not out- line his plan of action beyond the statement made yesterday that he would “continue to act as governor.” Republicans in Gov. Taylor’s confi- dence, however, say that he will re- main at Frankfort in the discharge of his duties until the court of last resort Passes Upon the Question at issue. Then if the decision is. against him he will step out at once and turn over the state buildings to Gov. Beckham, The Republicans will make every effort to carry the dispute into the federal courts in case the de- cision of the court of appeals, the su- preme court of Kentucky, is against them, but failing in this, they will con- sider the question settled, though still believing a great wrong has been done them. The Democratic leaders assert that they will cheerfully abide by the de- cision of the court of appeals. But should the decision be in their favor they will insist on the occupancy of the state buildings, peaceably if possible, but forcibly if necessary. Not until that decision is rendered will further action be taken. This much was de- cided yesterday at the conference be- tween Adjutant Generals Castleman and Collier which lasted a greater part of the afternoon, and at which a per- fect understanding in regard to the sit- uation was arrived at and a tacit agreement made to allow matters to re- main in statu quo at present. By this the Republicans understand that no further arrests will be attempted and no prosecutions made of the state of- ficers or of the state militia serving un- der Gov. Taylor. Another Arrest in Kentucky. Frankfort, Ky., March 14. — Gabriel A. Taul of Hardinsburg, was brought to Frankfort last night in the custody of the sheriff of Breckenridge county. He was arrested yesterday for sup- posed complicity in the assassination of Gov. Goebel. The sheriff and the police officials here refuse to give out any information in regard to the ar- rest. It is learned, however, that Taul was not in Frankfort at the time of the shooting, and it is said that his connection with the crime is only in- direct. Taul was not taken to jail, but spent the night at the Capital hotel im charge of an officer. READY FOR DEWEY. Preparations at Savannah to Wel- come the Admiral.

The various ways in which a cold may be brought on are thus described by Dr. J. H. Kellogg: “A little knife- blade of air blowing in through @ crack in a window upon some part ef the body will chill that part and the blood vessels of that region will be- eome contracted, affecting, somewhere in the interior of the body, an area in reflex relation with this portiom of the surface of the body. For instance, the blood vessels of the skin of the top of the shoulders and the chest are associated with the blood vessels of the lungs, so that whatever happens to the blood vessels of the skin of the shoulders and chest happens also to the blood vessels of the lungs. If there is a contraction of the blood vessels of the back of the neck there will be a contraction of the blood ves- sels of the nose and throat, and if there is a contraction of the blood ves- sels of the top of the shoulders and the shoulder blades there will also be a contraction of the blood vessels of the lungs.
