In the vineyards of Fresno county,
Cal, hundred of men may be seen plant
ing grapevines at night by lantern light.
The vineyard lands seem to be infested
with a multitude of huge fireflies, which
are darting and moving in every direc-

the stakes can be done much more cas-
lily and accurately by the aid of lanterns
than in broad daylight, that more work
is accomplished by the men in the same

amount of time is saved. One set Of men

KANSAS CITY, Kas., Nov 23.-Last
night the balmy wind which had been
blowing from the south whipped around
to the northwest, and in an hour reg
ular blizzard was ranging over the
whole state of Kansas. 1t is showing
heavily and the wind still blowing al-
most hurricane, driving the light snow
and sleet into drifts in every direction.
Reports come in slowly from Kansas, as
the wires are down in every direction.
Trains on the Union Pacific, Santa Fe
and Southern pacific roads are from
three to five hours late and the indica-
tions are that hy morning the drifts
will be so large that the roads will un-
dergo a complete blockade.
ATcHIsoN, Kas., Nov. 23-The first
bliGzard of the season came last night.
The snow is three inches deep on the
level and badly drifted. The snow ex-
tended 100 miles west.

PARIS, Nov. 23.-Advices sreceived here
from Antanamarive, the capital of
Madagascar, state that the relations be-
tween the French resident general and
the Malagassy authorities, which have
been greatly strained for some time
past, have reached point where rup-
ture may be looked for.
By the terms of the Anglo-French
agreement with respect to territories in

cognition of the protectorate of NADIA

the exequaturs Of British consuls and
agents must be applied for through the
intermediary of tho French resident
general in Madagascar.
The Malagassy government refused to
acknowledge the right of the resident
general to issue exequeters to foreign
representatives. 1t claims that this
right is Inherent in the government and
persists in the refusal TO recede from
this position. The French are equally
determined to maintain what they claim
as their right, and as no satisfactory So
luton of the difficulty can be arrived at,
1t is feared that serious developments
will result

Child Beheaded by Cars.

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 23.-Little 4
year-old Francis Cantwell, son of John
Cantwell, of 6l5 North Twenty fifth
street, met with horrible death at the
Reading railroad crossing at Twenty
fifth and Pennsylvania avenue. A pas
senger train was approaching the cross
ing when the child started to run across
the track. The flaginan called to him,
but the warning only tended to confuse
the boy, who, failing to realize the ap-
proaching danger, paused for few sec
onds. The pause was fatal, for in a
moment the engine struck the child and
passed over him, severing his head from
his body. -

W. Fl. SHEPHERD RETURNS.
The Wealthy Wilkesbarre Contractor
Now Under $4,000 Bail.

NOW Under SlOjoOO Ball.
WILKEsBARRE, Pa, Nov. cav. H.
Shepherd, a wealthy contractor of this
city, whose mysterious disappearance
from home last January created sensa-
tion throughout the whole country, ar
rived here late Saturday night, after
eleven months absence. His coming
was awaited, but in some manner he
eluded those who were watching for him
and went quietly to his home.
AT o'clock yesterday morning he was
aroused from his slumbers by three de-
tectives. He was at once placed under
arrest and taken tO the office of Justice
Davidson, where he was charged with
alternating the affections of Mayor Sut-
toms wife. The prisoner refused to
make any statement, and was held in
$40 600 bail for trial.
The arrest has caused decided sensa-
tion. For five months after Shepherds
disappearance it was thought he was
dead, and had been the victim of foul
play. One day in May last he startled
the whole community by sending tele-
gram to friend here. stating that he
was alive and living in Indianapolis, A
friend went to that city and found Shep-
herd lying ill at one of the hotels. Then
it was found that there was woman i'll
the case, which fact, rs well rs the
cause of his long absence, was made ap-
parent yesterday.

TRENTON, Nov. 23.-Henry Smith, q
convict from Essex county, serving a
five years term for breaking Jail and
robbery, escaped from tho state prison
on Saturday night and has not been re-
captured. Smith was confined in the
upper tier of the west wing and cut a
hole in the wall, by which he reached
the prison roof and went down over the
high outside wall by means of ladder
made of wire and small sticks, which he
had been able to procure in the prison.
The escape is considered a very clever
one, as the work of making the hole in
the wall must have taken several months.
The bricks taken from the wall were
hidden in the prisoners bed and the hole
covered by shirt or coat which had
been hanging in one place apparently
more than year.

THE sPHAKnRsH1P QUESTION.
The Crisp Men Confident That Their
Man Is Sure Winner.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 23.--The speaker
ship question, now that the two leading
candidates, Crisp and Mills, have come
to Washington, is beginning to be the
topic on conversation here. The out
come of the recent visit Of these two
gentlemen to New York seems to have
come up in Importance to all expecta-
tions. The current talk indicates that
Crisp stock has taken another big jump
upward in consequence of the New York
visit. The Crisp men are more confident
than ever-and they have been very con-
fident all along-that their man is now
sure winner. They do not seem to
have doubt that he will be elected on
the first ballot in the caucus. He has
pledged they say 107 votes that can be
counted on beyond any shadow of doubt.
Mr.. Crisp's friends Indignantly deny
that there has been Anything like deal
in his interest in New York They say
Tammany as an organization is for him.
The Tammany congressman are for
him, but so are most of the Democratic
congressman from the state outside of
New York. The influence that has
brought the mon to Crisp is stronger
thnn Tammany
Mr. Mills visit to New York seems
also to have been attended with import
ant results, but as far as can be learned
they are not wholly agreeable to his
friends. Mr.. Mills supporters, how
ever, are not discouraged. They still
stick to it that their man will show up
at the caucus with enough votes to elect
him.
All the other candidates-McMillan,
Springer and Bynum-are still in the
race, and there seems no reason to doubt
that the two former at least will stay
until the end.

THE RUSSIAN UKASE.
The Expectation Of Wheat Now
Forbidden.
FINANCIAL TROUBLES INCREASED.

A Claim That the Government Has
Enough Grain on Hand to Prevent
Further Suffering by the Famine.
Count Tolstoi Threatens to Aid in
Revolution.
WASHINGTON, Nov. GA dispatch
was received at the department of state
from Consul General Crawford at St.
Petersburg announcing that the Rus
sian government had issued ukase pro-
hibiting the export of wheat from Rus
sia. This prohibition, which goes into
effect today, will be executed under the
same conditions as those governing the
prohibition recently decreed against the
expectation of oats.
Russia Needs No Help.
BERLIN, Nov. 23.-The papers Of this
city on apparently good grounds, con-
meet the Russian ukase prohibiting the
export of wheat and wheat products
with the failure of the overture of NJ,
Vishnegradsky, the Russian finance
minister, to Berlin financlers to reopen
the German market to the Russian loans.
The fiasco which the French syndicate
made of the last Russian loan has enor-
mously increased the financial difficulties
of Russia.
A statement published in the st.
Petersburg Official Messenger on the
condition of the imperial finances and
its relation to the famine was tele-
graphed here as an authoritative declar-
alton aiming to minimize the dangers of
the situation. The statement begins by
announcing that the stocks of grain
after the prohibition of export will be
sufficient for the population until the
next harvest. The sum of Tho Official
Messengers statement is that Russia
has plenty of grain and an abundance
of money for the time being.
Count ToIstois Threat.
Count Tolstoi advocates the purchase
of corn in America in time to protect
the country from famine and the terri
bic social disturbance that is certain to
attend such a condition of affairs. Toll
stoi contends, from his own personal
calculation, that the stock of grain will
not be sufficient, and that the govern
ment reply guaranteeing enough to feed
the people until the next harvest, if fall
sified, will lead to revolution, in which
Tolstoi says he will aid.
