Go Higher.

There is one feature that distinguishes
the American from persons OF any
other nationality. He is not content
with the station in which he is born,
and he thinks nothing in this world in
the way of riches or honors too good
for him. If the American boy and
girl are barefoot and live in a hovel
they look steadfastly forward to the
time when they shall be as rich as
anybody, and have as good an educa-
ton and as much refinement and social
prestige as anybody.
They would be recreant and unwor-
thy the land in which they were born
if they thought otherwise. They dc
deserve the best that there is in life.
and the prospect is that they can get
it. There certainly is enough material
in this world to give everybody q com.

Keeping this fact before him, aspir.
ing to the highest, each individual who
has the true American spirit will strive
on in all noble and honorable ways to
advance civilization and comfort a lit
tie further than he found it, by making
himself richer, healthier, handsomer,
and more highly educated than his
parents were. Nothing less will satisfy
the genius of America. Chattanooga

Her Skull Crushed by a Blow With a Ham

Special TO THE MORNING CALI

MILWAUKEE. Oct. 1S.-A horrible story
of youthful depravity came to light to-day
when Albert kohls a sXteen-y year-old boy
in the employ of a farmer named KOdatZ
residing near this city, confessed the
murder of his employers fifteen-year-old
daughter Annie last October On the day
of the murder he first put into soup which
the family was to have for dinner a large
quantity of paris green. Mr.. Kodatz eat
from it first. and, becoming violently i'll, he
ut once prevented the others from par
taking of it There was so much of the
poison that it acted as an emetic and
Kodatz soon got well. That afternoon
Annie disappeared, and when officers came
to investigate the poisoning she could not
be found. They came to the conclusion
that she had tlaced the poison in the soup
and then fled. All efforts to find her
proved uuayailing. Last night Farmer
Kodatz in investigating the cause of
terrible stencil in the barn found the body
Of the unfortunate girl under the stable
floor The boy Kohls was at once appre-
hended and to-day confessed. After the
failure of the poisoning scheme he went out
to repair a hole the barn floor Annie
went with him, and, while she was holding
a board for him to saw, he crushed her
skull with hammer and placed the body in
the hole. He then covered it and nailed
down the floor. He does not appear to
realize the enOTmity OF his crime.

RIPE FOR REBELLION.
The Government Of The Argentine Republic
Preparing for an Outbreak

New YORK, Oct. 1S.-A Buenos Ayres
special to the Herald recalls the fact of Mi
tres resolve not to allow his name to be
used in the coming campaign. Hardly had
his followers and opponents Quieted down
from tile excitement the announce
ment caused when yesterday the peo-
Pile were further stirred up by
manifesto from Roca also, announcing his
retirement from politics. He likewise
claims patriotic reasons as influencing him in
the resolution. Coming so soon after
Mitris' resignation Roca's manifesto
has caused a profound sensation. Shortly
after Roca's announcement the Government
was nOnplussed by the resignation from
office OF Ministers Costa and CarballidO.
Their action, 1t would seem, Is to be fol-
lowed by other Withdrawals from the Cabi-
net. OF course their deSertiOn of the adj
ministratinn has added to the excitement
attendant upon General Roca'5 manifesto.
Runners assert that the Argentine Repub-
lie Is already entering upon another period
of rebellion. The temper of the pOpulace
is such that not may break forth at any
moment The Government is well aware of
the dangers that beset it, and has taken
measures to avert possible outbreak and
to stamp out the revolution at the first signs
1t shows.
With this point in view all the city garri-
sons have been concentrated at Palermo
Park.
Great activity is evident on the part of
the President in this emergency. The Sen
ate has increased the feeling of unrest by

Two United States Customs Inspectors
made raid on tho room of an opium snug
ger. at 1S9h Third street, about 10 o'clock
Wednesday night and seized about 200
pounds of opium, but the smuggler and a
Chinese confederate escaped, says the Seat
tie Post-Inteligencer.
The smugger, whose name is unknown,
arrived from the Sound on Monday, aud eu-
gagged the room during the absence of Mrs.
Bowman, the proprietor. Nothing is known
about him, as he left the room early in the
morning and returned late at night, some
times accompanied by companion. His
baggage consisted of large trunk and
valise, in which the opium was concealed.
1t has transpired that he has been visiting all
the Chinese opium-deaers and dlspOsing of
quantities of his stock. His long and contin-
ued conversations with the Cinnamon
aroused an Inspectors suspicious, and he was
kept under surveillance until sufficient evil
den ee could be secured and his booty seized.
On Wednesday night he was seen in COM
pany with Chinaman, and two Inspectors
followed them 20 the house. The Inspectors
had been informed that thero0 was No. 2,
at the head of the stairway, and when the
pair had been given sufficient time to pro-
ceed to business they rushed up the stairs,
but unfortunately entered the landlady's
room, which is No. 2 on the west side of the
house. The pair were transacting their
business in M. 2 Oh the east side, and at
the sound of the Inspectors voice the

BALFOUR'S PROMOTION.
His appointment as First Lord Of The
Treasury.

LONDON, Oct. 1S-It is officially an
nounced to-day that Balfour has been ap-
pointed First Lord of the Treasury. 1t is
reported that Balfour will retain his posi-
tion as Chief Secrettry of Ireland.
The Chronicle this morning thinks that
Salisbury would have preferred another par
liameDtary leader to Balfour, but he was
obliged to accede to the wishes of his party
unless Harrington had consented to convert
the coalition into a permanent union. Bal
four is not as likely to be as docie to the
ruling Of the Misunderstanding, Har-
tington and Chamberain-as was Smith.
The appointment may be regarded as
gamblers throw-the hope being that the
new leader will have beneficial effect upon
the coming election.
The Times says: "Only the fullest ma
lisnity can pretend that Bafour has not
earned his promotion. 1t is absurd to talk
of nepotism. The Marquis of Salisbury had
no more power to lift his nephew unless the
party desired it than Gladstone could make
either of his sons Chancellor of the Ex-
cheQuer"

Dodge, temporarily an inmate of the in
firmary at the PoOr-hOuse of this city, and
so years of age, received notice yesterday
that She is the heir to an estate worth
SS,000,00O in England. The story dates
back two centuries, at which time her
great-grandfather on her mothers side
owned a vast estate near London. His
oldest son removed to America, settling
and marrying in Virginia. Two children.
William and A nnie, were born Of the mar
riage, the latter the mother of Mrs. Dodge.
The son and his wife died and the two
children moved to Kentucky, where both
married, the son dying without issue and the
daughter marrying William Coleman.
Both died forty years ago, leaving Mrs.
Dodge and sister. They moved to Mis-
souri,, where Mrs. Dodge's husband died
twenty years ago.
Five years ago an article appeared in an
English paper telling of the estate and the
lost heirs. and the fact that the estate was

Mrs. Dodge became convinced that it was
her family history related. She laid the
case before a relative named Ross, recently
OF Minneapolis. and he went to London to
investigate the matter. He returned an en-
couraging letter, but since then nothing has
been heard from him and it is not known
where he is.
Then, it is said, she placed the matter in
the hands of her nephew, William T. Cole
man of San Francisco. Meanwhile she
came to Butte to visit her daughter. Mrs.
Charles Ragsdale. She was taken sick, and
the accommodations not being good at the
miners cabin she was removed 10 the in

She has now received letters confirming
her right to the estate and forwarded the
letters, documents, family Bible, ETC., to
