Signop Crispi No Longer in

Events,
The Gar Credited With an

tate War.

BERLIN, March 2S.-Semi-o official Or
gans are advised to ignore the renewed
war alarm and not to notice reports
coming from various sources which in
dictate early aggressive action Oh the
part of France and Russia. Persons
high in official circles refuse to say
more than that the intentions of Russia
to abandon her attitude of reserve has
been for some time known to the chiefs
OF the dreibund and that nothing can
happen for which they are unprepared.
The recent indiscreet prediction of
Sgr. CrispI, eX-Italian premier, that
war was certain to occur during
the current year, has elected from the
official papers at Vienna a comment to
the effect that Sgr. Crispi is no longer
in the secret of great events, and has
become Incompetent to prophesy, and
that what he says ought not to disturb
the tranquility of Europe. This sort
Of denial, however, is not reassuring, as
the fallen statesman is known to possess
still ample information regarding every
thing relating to both the political and
military powers of Europe. The Co
lOgne Gazette to-day asserts that it is
the Intention of the cZar to initiate and

An unusually large number of scarlet

owing to the fact that the Office was

THE SOLDIERS HOME AT FORT DODGE


soldiers home on the old Fort Dodge
reservation, located ON the Arkansas river
five miles east Of Dodge City, Ford coun-
ty, Kansas. Mr.. Barlow, q veteran OF the
civil war who has been stationed as
regular at Fort Dodge since the war, and
who Is now at the home, took great
pleasure in showing Mr.. and Mrs. Treble
cock and the writer over the grounds and
relating to US their history. We also
called on the commandsnt, Capt. Swee-
ney, and visited the rooms of some Of the
occupants; but that which held our at
tention most was the story of 5000 men
being stationed at the fort during the
White river expedition, as related by our
guide; the old dilapidated buildings, and
q thought of the tedious life led by the
soldiers at the fort many years ago.
The old buildings Of the fort are still
there, consisting of six large buildings
known as officers quarters, three large
buildings known as soldiers quarters or
barracks, q large cut stone building built
for hospital, two large cut stone build
ings formerly used as quartermaster's and
commissary buildings, and some fifteen
or twenty smaller wooden buildings, coal
houses, stables, corralS, etc. Walks are
being laid and trees planted, which i'm
proves appearances very much. The
park, which is surrounded by the build
ings, has q beautiful carpet of blue grass
and white clover. In the center of the
park, ON q high pole, the stars and stripes
are unfurled.
The stone used in the erection Of the
buildings was hauled from the Sawlog,
creek about twenty miles north Of the
fort, and the lumber from Fort Hays, In
the northern part Of the state. This was
in 1857, when the fort was established.
Considering the material used In the
buildings and the facilities for obtaining
it at that time we are led to believe that
the government expended an immense
amount Of money in erecting them.
Now it seems an act Of economy by the
state of Kansas in using the place and
buildings as soldiers home
The fort was abandoned by the United
States troops eight years ago, and two
years ago 1t came into the hands Of the
state. 1t was in q more or less dllapl-
dated condition, consequent from neglect
and non-occupancy, but many Of the
houses are we'll built and of good mate
rial and capable Of being repaired at a
slight expense and lasting many years.
The buildings which were formerly used
for the officers and their families (not
counting the barracks) contain ninety
four rooms of various sizes and were 'in
different degrees Of repair, but now all
are made habitable and accommodate
about thirty families, who have been
there eighteen months.
The object Of the home, as stated in
the act Of Congress obtaining the land
and buildings, is to furnish care and
maintenance to soldiers and sailors una
BILE to support themselves, their depen-
dent parents, wives and children. Chill
dren over sixteen years Of age are not
eligible. The commandant, with whom
we talked, said they were expecting to
erect some three room cottages and re-
model the old buildings more comfort

FRANK ASHTON DEAD.
The Wounded Guard Succumbs Through
Exhaustion.

Frank Ashton, the Sullivan guard who was
accidentally shot by his companion, Charles C.
Todd. at Franklin on Sunday, died yesterday
morning about O'Clock. The operation per-
formed on him by Drs. Mohun, Harrell and
Newlands began about IL 30 o o'clock on Sunday
night and was not finished until O'Clock yes
terday morning. 1t was found that the ball,
which was 44-caliber with a fiat end, had
torn through the small intestine, carving
pieces of fiber with 1t. The wounds were
stitched up and Ashton was put to bed under
the influence of anasthetics He recovered
consciousness about $50 and talked with DIR.
Mohun. who had remained in attendance. but
from that time he gradually sank By7:30 he
was pulseless and by O'Clock he was dead
Ashton's wife did not arrive until about II
o'clock this morning, too late to see him alive.
The telegram sent to her from Franklin yester-
day omitted to say that he would be taken to
Providence hospital, and she consequently
started to Franklin. On reaching Black River
junction she learned that he had been taken to
this city, and she came here only to find him
dead.
An autopsy was held on the body, and showed
that the stitches had all held and that there
were some elots of blood in the abdomen. Il
was declared that death resulted from exhaus-
ton caused by loss of blood

The operation performed on Ashton is rare
one and is known as median laparotomv. Dr..
Harrell, IN speaking of the case to a Posr-

ton had been performed immediately Ashton
might possibly have been saved, but there were
no means OF operating properly at Franklin and
removal TO seattle was the proper thing TO do
The Oregon Improvement Company did every.
thing possible to save the man, but the ipeyita-
