A Very Pleasing Program That Will
be Repeated This Evening.

A good attendance was present last even
ing in the United church chapel at the
presentation of scenes from home life in
India under the direction of Mr.. and Mrs.
Karmarkar of Bombay, India. The affair
was given under the auspices of st. John
street M. E. church and the New Haven
city missions. 1t was carefully prepared
and well given. The program was made
up of twelve scenes typical of the customs
and manners of the people. The Hindoo
school was particularly worthy of men
ton, in which songs in the native Ian
guage were sung by those who until now
have never spoken word of it. After
the Hindoo wedding, with marriage song
and wedding dinner party, came the most
effective scene of all, that of the Hindoo
widow in the home of her mother-in-law,
the parts being taken by Miss Lottie Rey-
nolds and Mrs. Frederick Bostwick. About
thirty persons dressed in native costume
took part in the different scenes. The
same program will be repeated this even
ing and undoubtedly draw crowded
house. Tickets may be procured at the
book stores and at the door. Mr.. and Mrs
Karmarker are educated Christians and
were formerly high caste Brahmins. They
are now in America for further prepare
ton for missionary work in their owl
country.

DENVER, Col, Sept. ga special to
the Republican from Lamar, Col, says:
Word has been received of serious trouble
between the towns of Boston and Spring
field in Baca county. Since Baca county
was made from Los Animas county by the
last general assembly there has been strife
between these two counties as to whicn
should have the seat. The act organizing
the county provided that Springfield
should be the county seat, and at the cleo
ton last fall it is alleged by the manipula-
ton of the ballots it was made the perma-
nent county. The only available building
for county court house was hotel build
ing in Boston. A few weeks ago this was
sold at sheriff's sale, and was bought by
Springfield people. Saturday night party
left Springfield for Boston with machinery
costing 1000, intening to move the build
ing to the former town for use as court
house, and thus prevent the county seat
issue being raised again this fall. Rollers
we're put under the building, which is
the finest in the county, and twenty teams
were hitched to it. Inside the house were
stationed twelve men with Winchester
rifles The building was moved about
five mile from Springfield, which is about
twenty-five mile from Boston, when the
people of the latter place discovered the
trick and Immediately organized. AL
available horses and rifles were brought
into requisition and pursuit was made.
Upon overtaking the Springfield party they
commanded halt, which was answered
by volley of shots from the men in the
building The Boston crowd fired and
fierce battle ragged, which ended in the
Springfield contingent being driven from
the building. Coal was than procured and
the building was set on fire and entirely
consumed. Great excitement prevails,
but owing to the isolation of the towns
Springfield being over fifty miles from
Lamar, which is the nearest station-news
is hard to obtain. Several parties arrived
here from Springfield last night and de-
parted hurriedly, after buying all the
cartridges they could find in town. 1t is
reported that several parties were serious
ly wounded and two killed during the
fight, but the news is not authentic.

DrOwned-Ten Days Terrible Suf-
fering without Food.
WINNIPEG, Man., Sept. 25.-Details of
the terrible calamity which befell the gov
eminent patrol boat Keewatin, have
reached here. The boat left for Selkirk
on the 9th instant, having on board Cap
tain Watts and Corporals Morphy and
Rene On the way they encountered q
terrible storm and hurricane and attempt
ed to reach Swampy. The hurricane was
SO great that landing was found impossi-
BILE. The boat was buffeted by wind and
wave and at last an immense
wave struck her on the side keel
ing her over. Morphy and Rene
clambered onto the. side. Watts
remained in the cabin which was water
tight. The men remained in this position
for hours in the midst of a bowling storm.
Finally Renes strength gave out and he
fell off and sank. Watts managed to ex-
tricate himself and climbed up beside
Morphy. The two men dashed themselves
with ropes to the boat and remained in
this position two days and nights, while
the storm ragged around them. After two
days of intense suffering Morphy fell of
and was drowned. Watts dashed himself
more securely to the boat and in this way
| spent ten days without food, suffering the
| most intense agony. He was picked uI
| on the tenth day in an unconscious condi
| ton, by Indians near Gladstone island
and was brought to Winnipeg by thu
