A BIG

Capitalists Going Into the Luln-
Der business in the South on u Large
Scale.
Omaha. have organized q gigantic milling
and lumber enterprise on the Sabine river,
in Louisiana and Texas. George w.
Howell and w. r. Smith, the attorney of
the firm, lave returned from the south,
where Mr.. Howell concluded the purchase
of 100, 900 acres Of fine land in the two
states. The land is on both sides of the
river, and gives the firm control Of the
stream a distance of over 10U miles. The
land is in q state Of wild nature, and an
axe has never been put in it. 1t abounds
in pine and cypress and extends back of
the river on both sides from three to
five miles. AT Logansport; on the Lou;si-
ma side of the river, Mr.. Howell has
bought a small mill, which is now in oper-
alton getting out lumber to build a man,
moth mill, and men are also burning brick
to build the engine houses, smoke. stacks,
drying kilns and other buildings that will
be of brick. The proposed mil will cut
300, 600 feet of lumber in twelve hours, and
an electric light plant will afford light to
work by at night. From 500 to 1000 men
will be employed. The enterprise also in
cludes the building of a city at Logans-
port, which is now a struggling hamlet,
and the reconstruction Of a narrow gauge
railroad into q standard gauge from Lo-
gansport to Shreveport. The investment
of capital will run into many thousand
dollars, the purchase Of land alone requir-
ing an outlay OF over 500, 900.

mercial company, Of New York and San
Francisco, for the exclusive privilege of

Paul and St. George, Alaska, for twenty
years from May l.
The company will pay an annual renta
of $50, 900 for the lease of said islands, and
in addition to a revenue tax of So upon
each fur seaiskin taken aud shipped byssit
from the islands, the company will pay
76.215-10O0 Of a dollar q piece for each
skin. SO far as may
be practicable and consistent with the in
terests Of the company it will encourage
the dressing, dyeing and marketing of
seal skins within the United States. The
annual revenue of the government under
this lease, on the basis of 100, 900 seals
per annum, will be about 81, 200, 900 as
against 100000 under the present lease
to the Alaska Commercial company.

Tho Stock Subscribed and the Pool an AS
sured Fact-News from Other Points OF
all Varieties.
A Chicago paper asserts that the big
smelling organizations of the United
States have formed a trust with q capital
of 1926, 600, 900. It includes all but five of
The large :. organizations Of the
country. Among the companies
in 1t are the Omaha & Grant Smelling
and Refining company of Omaha and
Denver, the Kansas City Smelling and
Refining company of Kansas City, the
Pennsylvania Lead company of Mansfield,
Pa, the Chicago Smelling and Refining
company, the Aurora Smelling and Rein
ing company of Aurora, ILL.,, the Globe
Smelling and Refining company of Den
yer, E. Balbach & Co., Newark, N. j.,
Pueblo, COL, Smelling and Refining com
pany, the Colorado Smelling company of
Pueblo, Col, the Philadelphia Smelling
and Refining company of Pueblo,
Col, the Arkansas Valley Smelling COM
pany, of Leadville, Col, the American
Smelling and Mining company, of Lead
vile; the Manville company, of Leadville;
the San Juan Smelling company, of Dur
ango, COL; the Hanover smelter, Of Salt
Lake; the Mingo Furnace company, of
Salt Lake; the Helena & Livingston Smelt-
ing and Refining company, of Helena,
Mont; the Montana Smelling company, of
Great Falls, Mont, and the Ell Paso
smelter, of Eli Paso, Tex.
The first conference between the heads
of the companies was held in Omaha last
November. The object OF the meeting was
stated to be to devise a way for protecting
the smelters from the lead trust. Various
ways of organization were discussed, but
nothing definite was determined on at that
meeting. Guy Barton, of Omaha, was
elected president and NJ. Geist, of Pueblo,
secretary. 1t was shown that the trust
would make a profit annually of about
S $1,000, 900. AS only six companies were
represented at this meeting, it was deter.
mined to confer with the other manufact-
urers and have another meeting later.
This was held in Chicago, Feb. 13, and
then it was determined to organize a com
pany known as the United States Smelling
and Refining company. Of the capital
stock $l5, 100000 will be common, to be
used fc:- the payment of the fixed proper
ties that 60 into the new organization, and
$4,000, 900 of preferred stock for the
purchase Of ore and such personal
property as it may be necessary to
have. To form a sinking fund. $3.50, 900 OF
the profits will be laid aside Annually for
two years, and each year thereafter $500,
600 will be added to the fund. It is as
serted that the necessary stock has been
subscribed and the final articles of incor-
poration will soon be filed in the different
states and territorities. The chief object
of the shelters, it is said, is to place their
interests beyond the control Of the lead
frnsf.

BLAINE'S
Rumors that James G. Blaine, Dr., Has
Attempted to Kidnap His Child.

Rum0rs that James G.. Blaine, Jr.. Has
Attempted to Kidnap His Child.
It is reported that James G. Blaine, IT,,
has made several attempts to kidnap his
infant child in New York city. One effort
is said to have been made on the day 81
Mrs. Blaine's benefit at the, Broadway
theater. Mrs. Kendall has become one of
the dearest friends of Mrs. Blaine. Every
day the English actress has been in New
York she has spent at least two hours with
the sick woman. 1t had been arranged
that little James G. Blaine be taken to
the theater. When Mrs. Kendall
was encored she was to appear OH
the stage with the tiny child in
her arms. 1t was Mrs. Kendall's
own idea. 1t would have created an i'm
mense sensation. Those who were ut the
benefit knew that the infant Blaine did not
appear on the stage. During the morning
the. boy was taken out for an airing by Mrs.
Fuller. A little while later the nurse came
rushing home with a white face and out of
breath. 1.-TWO men were following me-"
she gasped. "They acted strangely and
frightened me nearly to death. I saw them
almost directly after I left the house.
They followed me down to Broadway.
Their movements scared me. l turned
and came home as quickly as possible"
Those present wanted to keep the news
from Mrs. Blaine, but in her excitement
Mrs. Fuller had spoken in q high key and
the sick woman heard her. A few minutes
later came the startling intelligence that
James G. Blaine, jr., was in the city. H.
side of an hour the nurse had packed what
necessaries she required for herself and
child. Under the escort OF o faithful
friend they were taken to q safe and quiet
retreat in the country to some friends Of
Col. Nevins. The knowledge of the child's
whereabouts is carefully guarded. Mean
while young Blaine has kept very quiet.
Late in the afternoon, it is said, he learned
that the child had been taken away. Then
his tall figure and prominent nose were seen
on Broadway. He strol!ed by the theater
where kindly people were doing what they
could for his young wife.

A Wholesale Murderer Caught.

Rudolph Dubois, of st. Adams, who
murdered his Hife his mother-in-l law and
his two children, has been arrested. He
was found concealed in some bushes and
his arms and feet were badly FRI zen. The
house in which the quadruple murder was
committed presented a shocking spectacle.
On the floor lay the bleeding body of Mrs.
Dubois, the wife of the murderer, and Mrs.
Thibaul, aged 80 years. The skulls were
crushed i'll and the bodies partially dis
membered. In the bedroom were the re-
mains of the two little children. Their
bodies were absolutely hacked to pieces,
and the babe was entirely beheaded. Jeal-
ousy is said to have been the motive for
the horrible crime.

A DUEL,
Two Drunken Men Fight with One Re-
vOlver, linking Turns.

Two Drunken Men Fight with One Re-
volver, Taking Turns.
The new mining town of Elkins, w. Va,
on ex-United States Senator Davis new
railroad, was the scene of a duel possess
ing some remarkable phases. James Nee,
a coal miner, and a carpenter named
Archer, fast friends, went on q spree to-
gether. They went to Mrs. Wise's saloon,
and, getting into a dispute with the
woman, drove her out of the house. They
then proceeded to wreck the interior of the
saloon, smashing glasses, windows and
mirrors and wrecking the furniture.
While thus engaged Nee accidentally hit
Archer, and the two men INDUCED in a
rough aud tumble fight. This did not
satisfy them and they agreed to fight n
duel. There was but one revolver between
them, and with drunken gravity they agreed
that the pistol should be used turn about
the shots to be fired while the mon stood
at opposite ends Of the bar. The
choice for first shot fell to Archer. Nee.
took his place at the other end Of the room
and Archer blazed away. The bullet struck
Nee in the head, plowed q furrow along the
scalp and caused q profuss hemorrhoge.
When Nee came to shoot he was blinded
by blood and SO nervous from the effects
Of the shot that he could not aim. The
result was o miss. Archer then took q
second shot at Nee, but missed, and
handed over The revolver to his antagonist.
BY this time crowd had been attracted to
the saloon, but no one had the courage to
enter. The men refused to pay attention
to calls to desist, and Nee fired at Archer,
shooting him through the hand. He then
took the gun to Archer for a fifth shot. but
before the weapon could be fired the crowd
rushed in, grabbed the revolver and put a
stop to the desperate proceedings. Neither
Of the wounds inflicted is at oil serious.

An Elegant BANQUET,

The dinner given at the Arlington hotel
by Andrew Carnegie to the president and
cabinet, and the delegates and officers Of
the international American conference, was
undoubtedly the most elegant affair Of the
kind ever given in Washington. The floral
decorations were novel and unique.
Among them were orchids, tulips and cro-
cuses. there being thousands of blossoms,
collected in New Orleans, Mobile, Savan-
nah and other southern cities, as we'll as
in the greenhouses of Philadelphia, New
York and Boston. The menu was engraved
in fine script upon heavy beyeled blocks Of
paper mache, and every article of food was
described in plain English. There we're no
formal speeches.

TO GIVE A SCHOOL HOUSE,
A Proposition That Astonished the School
Superintendent.

A Proposition Tint Astonished the School
Superintendent.
In view of the fact that in several cities
Catholic priests have recently ordered
Catholic parents to send their children to
parochial schools exclusively, an event oc-
cured at st. Paul, Mimi, which is remark
able and may lead to a solution of the
school question. The Catholics have lately
finished a school building in st Johns par.
lsh, Baytons Bluff. In that section of the
city the public schools have been
crowded all winter and the board of educa-
ton had been considering what was best to
be done until spring, when q building could
be erected. Father Fleming, pastor of the
parish, learned of the dilemma and stag
gered Superintendent Gilbert 80 that he
could hardly believe his senses by offering
to donate the Catholic parish school to the
city, only requiring that it pay the abso.
lutte and necessary running expenses, such
as payment of teachers, purchase
OF fuel, etc. Father Fleming said the
teachers now in the parish schools could
he examined and if they came up to the re-
iquired standard they should be kept,
otherwise not. During school hours the
question of religion was to be scrupulously'
,banished from the school room. OF
course, it religious instruction was given
after school hours he did not think There
could be anything Objectionable in that.
The proposition was so manifestly fair and
the clergymen SO evidently sincere that
the superintendent took the matter seri-,
ously under consideration and will report
at favorably to the board of education.

Left Two Widows.


Michael Lendzsder, near Maukato,
Mimi, died about a month ago, leaving his
farm of 80 acres and other property to his
wife. A woman from Wisconsin put in an
appearance and claimed the farm on the
ground of being Lahdzeder's legal wife.
She claims that he eloped with the other
woman several years ago, and that she was
unable to locate him during his life, but
heard of his death through his neighbors,
one Of whom knew all the time how
matters stood, but was strangely or dis
creetly silent. She says that her faithless
spouse was the father Of her four children,
while he left two by wife No. 2. An ap-
plication for the appointment Of. an ad-
ministrator was made.

ing SEASON promises more activity than
any seasan since 1887. III the United
States there are 5000 miles in process Of

ANOTHER RUSH FOR A
Boomers Waiting for tile Opening of the
Cherokee Strfn.

Boomers Waiting for tile Opening of the
Cherokee Strip.
Parties from the southern border of
Kansas state that hundreds Of people are
gathering there to enter the Cherokee strip
when President Harrison shall declare it
lawful to do SO. The strip comprises the
finest part of the Indian territory, being
well watered and timbered. The counties
of Cody and Sumner were the homes of
the Oklahoma boomers for years, while
awaiting the signal from Washington when
they could rush across the strip to the land
SO long coveted. The presidents pro-
clamatlon was worded SO as to inspire the
boomers with the thought that the
strip would be opened by June / if the cat
tie could be driven off by that time. The
towns and cities are rapidly filling up with
people. From these points excursions are
made into the territory, ostensibly for the
purpose of hunting cutie or game, but in
reality to select sites for homes when
President Harrison gives the signal for
them to enter. The townsite sreculator is
also on hand and already more than o
score of towns have been locatedi in imagin-
alton. There is a disposition all along the
border to respect the rights, or the sup
posed rights, of those who SO p%rematurely
located their claims and townsites.
This disposition has caused the belief
that there is an organization formed for
the purpose of invasion. This, however,
is hardly the case. The purpose is to pro-
tect each other against later claimants. 1t
is estimated that fully 1000 claims have
been marked, the property rights to which
will be respected and even defended if nee
essary. There are about 45, 900 claims in
the Cherokee strip and there are now
1000 people on the border waiting to go
in. By May II 1900 people will have
gathered along the Kansas border to enter
the strip. This is not the fullest extent
of the preparations, however. In Okla
homa there are thousands Of negroes ready
to cross the line northward and they, too,
have selected their Claims.
