The Oklahoma Lands.

WASHINGTON, March G. In the con-
fusion attendant upon the closing hours
of congress the exact nature and effect of
the amendments made to the Indian APP
preparation bill has not been clearly I'M
derstood. The impression has gained
currency that all the provisions of the bill
organizing the territory of Oklahoma in
effect were embodied in the Indian APP
preparation bill. This is not the case.
The amendments agreed to relate to the
Seminole and Cherokee lands and are as
follows: The sun of $l,9I2, 942 is ap-
propriated to pay in full the Seminole Ma
ton for all rights, title. interest and claim
they may have in and to certain lands
ceded by the treaty of 1866. containing

An Epidemic Among Dogs.

New MARTINsvLLE, w. ", March G.
Notwithstanding that from 200 to 300
dogs, suspected of being mad or infected
to some degree with rabies, have been
killed in this (WetselD county during the
past thirty days, the interior of the county
still seems to be overrun with CANNES in
a dangerous condition and the alarm Of
the people is general. There has been
considerable loss of live stock, cattle,
swine and sheep, which died from the
effects OF bites inflicted by infected dogs
and in two instances horses have sue.
cumbed. Several people have also been
bitten, but in no instances as yet has any
serious result followed. Farmers consider
1t dangerous to go along roads unarmed
and dog killing squads are out daily. One
man has seven dogs, all believed to be
mad. They have been taken to the woods
and are running wild with dozens of other
dogs in a like condition. These dogs
spread the disease BY biting other CANNES,
live stock, etc., and what the end will be
is hard to %foretell. The disease first made
its appearance on the fishing coast last
August and has been growing worse
steadily.

IMPORTANT CHANGES.
Proposed Consolidation of All
U. P. Branch Lines.
Arrangements Now Complete
for the New Move.
The Change May Take Place
Very Soon.

New YORK, March Ga Boston
special says: The following was given
out at the office of the Union Pacific Rail-
road company in that city to day:
For some time past the question of the
consolidation of the branch lines of the
Union Pacific system centering at Ogden
has been under consideration. The neces-
sary papers have now been drawn up and
the directors have the immediate %consoli.
dation Of the Oregon Short Line and
Utah & Northern Railroad companies be-
fore them.
The first step in bringing this about
was taken at n meeting of the Oregon
Short Line trustees, held on Monday of
this week and succeeding steps will taken
as rapidly as the forms of law will permit.
The question of incorporating with this
company and other Utah lines of the
Union Pacific system is also under con-
sideratlon.
This proposed consolidation, if carried
through in all its parts, will undoubtedly
exercise a decided influence. not only
upon the affairs of the Union Pacific. but
upon the future development of the
whole territory adjacent to Salt Lake City
and Ogden.

Great Excitement in California.

SAN Francisco, March 5.-The gold
excitement In Lower California near En-
senada is increasing, many locking from
San Diego to the gold fields. Work on
the Guyamaca, San Diego & Eastern rail-
road is stopped by the men leaving in a
body for the mines and steamers between
San Diego and Ensenada have doubled
the rates but the rush continues. Stages are
now running overland. The mines are
located sixty miles southwest Of Ensenada.
San Diego papers declare the development
covers 100 miles square and that placer
miners are making a great deal OF money,
$4,000 in gold dust having been brought
into Ensenada yesterday.
Nearly all the California papers have
urged the people to be cautious about
rushing into the mines. owing to the fact
that many of the recently reported mines
in California failed to carry out the first
indications of wealth. but there seems no
question but that tie people In the south
ern portion OF the state believe a new and
really profitable gold field has been dis
covered.

Beautiful Fireworks Display.


WASHINGTON, March 6.-The deferred
fireworks display from the monument
grounds tonight was undoubtedly the
most brilliant ever witnessed in Washing
ton. The exhibition began with illumin-
ating Pennsylvania avenue from the
treasury department to the capitol,
a distance of over one mile, by means of
magnesium suns. The night was unusu-
ally dark and the great white shaft of the
Washington monument afforded a back
ground the peer of which can hardly be
found in the world. The first set pieces
displayed were the large portraits of Pres
ident Harrison and Vice President Nor
ton, framed in brilliant %colors, resting
upon an easel. So life like were these
portraits that at the distance of a mile
each was readily recognized.
Following these came marvellous foun
tains of sparkling electric stars, myrads
tint, bombs which. bursting hundreds of
feet in the air, discharged thousands Of
smaller shells. which in turn exploded,
producing a grandly beautiful effect and
then bonfires of colored lights which re-
fected their rays upon the great white
obelish transformed it into a shaft of
FURNISHED brass and again into one of gar
net and then OF emerald or sapphire, while
the towering structure was wildly out
lined against a sky of intense black.
Another set piece pictured the south
front of the white house, every detail of the
pillar and capital window and carved cor
nice appearing with perfect distinctness.
The last of the set pieces represented the
capitol. The closing exhibition was in
deed a gorgeously brilliant one. Tens of
thousands of blue rockets exploded by
electricity and shot up from the base of
the monument to its summit. Thousands
of others in yellow. scarlet. green, purple
and garnet, followed in quick succession,
until the whole sky was aiame with scin-
tilating stars of wondrous hues. This
great eruption continued for some time.

out of the berth.
Mrs. Smith vas too experienced a
traveller to scream, for she had taken
in the situation at n glance, and knew
that the fugitive had merely made n
mistake in his berth.
Early in the morning she met a
lady, n fellow traveller, who appeared
very much troubled. She told Mrs.

another bunk for theirs and gotten
