Again Head | Cabinet, Prospective Changes in Great Britain’s Government.. Sir Henry Gampbell;Banner- man to Enter the House { of Lords. Speclal Dispatch to The Call. LONDON, Nov. 14.—It was learned to-day om the highest authority that Lord Rosebery is to be Premier and Foreign Secretary of the Britlsh em- pi Sir Henry Campbell-Bannerman WwHl become a peer and enter' the House of Lords, thus occupying a more or less decorative position instead of securing the Premiership, the Liberal party having completely abandoned its former plan to make him s leader diring its ‘coming term of officiul power. Sir Henry Campbell-Bannerman's self-effacement will cause a sensation when it becomes generally ' known. Months ago the Liberal party chieftains formally decided that the Premiership was the unguestioned right of the Scot- | tish ‘Knight, who so long has borne {‘the brunt of the Unionist attacks, dat- | ing from the stirring days of the South African war, when he was pilloried | throughout the nation as the “biggest little Englander.” Equally astonishing will be the reve- lation that Lord Rosebery has been persuaded to forsake his career of strenuous leisure for the turmoil of the Premiership and the Foreign Office. Although the mew Cabinet will' be headed by one of the wealthiest nobles of the realm, Parliament under the guidance of the new Ministry will attain the most complete democratiza- tion of the British Government. One significant indication of this is the probable appearance in the Cabinet of John Burns, who, in that -event, would be the first labor leader ever called into the circle of the King's advisers. Burns is slated either for the presi- dency of the Board of Trade or for the local government board, preferably the latter, which deals with matters closely related to municipal life. . Still, it is possible that the pride of Battersea will head the newly created Department of Labor.

The Mexican papers are cof- rect. It is announced semi-officially that Tet- | razzini has broken all her New York contracts, snapped her fingers at the prospect of basketfuls of shekels. Why? Tetrazzinl shrugs her shoulders, It is whispered that the little prima donna will not accept any contract un- {css Bazelli, her complacent looking tenor, s Included in the billet. There are plenty of Bazellis, but only one Tetrazzini. New Yorkers want Tetrazzini, but they want her Bagelli-less. That is the reason they give behind the. scenes for Tetrazzint's turning ‘down ‘the golden offer from the New York impresario. At the Tivoli they say: “A woman's reason. Tetrazzini is simply a sample of ‘the eternal feminine. Moreover she is an Italian and an artist.” Bazelli goes to Mexico with the prima donna.- The Mexican Herald says of him, “As a producer of rich, strong notes he is not in the chambion class.” Several local singers have been invited to join the Mexican comvany.

TACOMA, Nov. 4.—Farmers about Te- koa are preparing to start war of ex- termination against Belgian hares which were introduced on the Couer d'Alene reservation by Peter Joseph, a rich In- dian.

The little ‘pests_have not only wrought destruction to_orchards, gardens and flelds of grain Ofi ithe farm on which they were intro- duced, but have extended their- uvngu! to adjacent property, destroying crops worth many thousands. Farms surround- ing Josephs' are now swarming with the | voracious pests and a rabbit drive will' be inaugurated to kill them off. ————— Sets Day for Thanksgiving.

The annual address of President Richards of Boise, 1daho, was the real feature of the day. President Richards made a plea to put the assoclation on a business basis and said the time had arrived when the or- ganization must cease existing on char- ity. He said he believed a department of mines and mining in the President’'s Cab- inet would be a great help to miners. He declared ridiculous the argument that the President’s Cabinet is already too un- wieldy and said the President could never get too many good advisers. President Richards made a plea for honesty in high places and said miners should stand together and make a hon- est fight for their rights against the crooks and rascals in the mining business. He favored giving Alaska representation in Congress, declaring: “Alaska will yet be one of the most stable influences in our industrial development in the hour of na- tional strain, in sustaining the hand of our. Government, because of the enormous quantities of preclous and commercial metals which that country is capable of producing.” President Richards paid a tribute to the work of the Geological Survey, but sald it was not large enough and a min- ing survey, with plenty of men, should- be devoted to the work of the miners. He hoped to see the congress soon es- tablished in its permanent home in Den- ver and urged that the home be fitted with a mining library, ore cabinets, maps and all conveniences for the miner. Resolutions were adopted urging the creation of a Department of Mines by Congress, urging Congress to pass laws providing for the Jocation of mines on Spanish land grants in Arizona and New Mexido, titles to which have been con- firméd by a Government court of land claims and urging the hydrographic bu- reau to properly locate all desert water holes and erect metal posts in their vi- cinity It is also urged that rangers be providea to keep such water free from pollution. All the resolutions were referred to a committee. Professor James Douglas, manager of the Phelps-Dodge interests in Arizona, in- vited the entire congress to become his guests on a special traip for Bisbee and Douglas. DECREASE AMONG WHITES IN HAWAIIL Numbher of Natives, However, Shows: Increase Over Two Years Ago. Epecial Cable t6 The Call. ' HONOLULU, Nov. 14.—Tle election af- fidavits of the territory glve the total reg- istration of native Hawailan voters as 13,250. Instead of the expected decrease there is a gain of 5% over two years ago.

Barron as "Result of His A COUNTER COMPLAINT Millionaire Will Bring a Similar Suit Against the Plaintiff-, in the Case “'BOSTON. Nov. 14.—Counsel repre- senting Charles W. Barron stated to- Aay that after u private hearing Judge Wentworth of the Municipal Court'had | declded to issue a warrant for the ar- rest of Thomas W. Lawson on a charge | of criminal libel preferred by Barron. The case results from statements al- leged to have been made in a magazine article by Lawson, and the 'question of the Issuance of a warrant has been the fubject of hearings covering a petiod | of several weeks.

Scrofula ' The Blood Disease of the Ages Scrofula is older than the pyramids and the sphinses; and, no disease of ancient or modern times, not even consumption, is sponsible for a larger mortality.

The killing occurred | at the home of the Kafitz's at 1108 Fedora |s(reeL The cause of the killing is un- | explained, except that Fritz. il with | brooding over the death of their mother gf some months ago, was seized with a of dementia and slew his brother and himself. He left # note addressed to his | father, saying -that he had killed his { brother and taken his own life because he believed the two were a burden to their father and were better off dead. | The two boys, with their father, formed | & real estate firm and maintained offices in a downtown bullding. There had been no previous trouble between the boys so far as is known. To-night Ludwig and his father returned to their home late from a neighboring restaurant. All were preparing to retire and the father had gone to his room, when he heard shots | from the boys’ apartments, and running | to ithe scene, found the two boys lying | on -the floor of the room, both mortally wounded. In his hand Fritz still grasped the revolver with which he had commit- ted the deed. Both expired before medi- cal assistance could be secured. It developed that Fritz had purchased the revolver to-day; evidently with the view of committing the crime which he had planned. He had undoubtedly laid, in walt for his brother in their room, and as soon as the latter entered, had opened fire. i Blows Miner to Atoms.
