ST. PAUL, March 5.-A telegram from

challenge to Sullivan, and the willingness
of the Olympic Club to hang up purse,

window pane, through which he dashed his
hand during a recent jag. Sullivan saids

A CrematorY for (IEmnia.

A movement is on foot to establish in
this city a crematory for the final disposi-
tion of the dead. The movement is being
fostered by George A. Barnes, General Nc
Kenny and others. Thus far the matter
which is being manifested, and the extent
to which the system is used in growing
cities will undoubtedly result in some def
mite action.
The hillnear Tumwater is the most de-
sirable site yet spoken of. Instead of CON
signing the body to the cold earth, it is
placed ina furnace, which. has attained a

NEW CENSUS
Of the State of Washington to
be Taken at Once.

The Law Says 1T Must be Done
Every Two Years in order to
Classify the ies-Thurston
COunty's classification.
A new census of the state OF Washing
ton is to be taken this year by the county
assessors Of the various counties in order
that the next legislature can classify the
counties of the state The work will be
done under the supervision of the state
auditor and be completed about the first
day of June. This census will show the
wonderful growth and progress Of the
state, since the census was taken by the
national government in June 1890. The
law under which the county. assessors will
actis in section of the act classifying the
counties according to population, enumer-
ating the county officers, fixing hesalaries
thereof providing for deputies, etc.
This act became a law under the proyis-
ions of the constitution in April 1890.
Section says:
"For the purpose of regulating the COM
pensation of county officers herein pro-
vided for, the several counties of this state
are hereby classified according to their pop
ulatlon as will be ascertained by the feder-
al census of 1890, and thereafter every two
years by the county OF precinct assessors
enumeration of the census of the different
counties ofthe state as follows:''
While the legislature passed no law to
provide for the census, it is held that the
old territorial law relative to the subject
which is incorporated in the Hill code, is
still in force in addition to the statement
in section l of the law of April, 1890.
The assessors and their deputies will do
the work and it is presumed that it will re-
quire from half dozen to twenty men in
the various counties.
By the new enumeration Thurston coun-
ty which in the census of 1890 was classi-
fed as in the 10th class because its popuIa-
ton did not reach 10000, will undoubtedly
be advanced to the 14th or 18th class. This
will increase the salaries Of the county Of

Philadelphia Ledges: President Harri-

the sequence of the purity, efficacy and
usefulness of his administration, and not
of the desire of the active political class to
make him a presidential candidate. 1t is
held, the confidence felt in his ability and

His proposed candidacy rests upon no fac

ones of popular confidence and respect.

of the spectators, it failed to sever the head
from the trunk, leaving the neck in ter

the scene was increased when the execu-
toner Iaised the knife and made an at
tempt to wrench off the head of the unfor-
tunate man with his hands, while the blood
rushed in torrents from the gaping wounds.
In spite Of all his tugging and twisting he
failed to tear it off, and again placed the
body under 4he guillotine. Again the blade
failed to perform its work, only leaving the
remains more mutilated than before. The
brutal executioner then took knife and

The CHILEAN AFFAIR
Unfounded Reports Of a Oonoiliat
tory Spirit in Chile.
INSPECTING THE OLD MONITORS.

To Determine Their Fitness for Use
in Case OF Necessity-No Official
Communication Has Been Received
from Chile Since NIatta's Offensive
Note Yves Withdrawn.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 21.-One of the
SUBJECTS discussed by the President and
Secretaries Blaine, Tracy and Elkins, in
conference late yesterday afternoon,
was the time when the correspondence
on the Chilean question shall be sent to
congress. Their decision cannot be def
nitely stated. but it may go ia this after
noon.
In view ~ The unfounded reports cir
cuIated thai at Tuesdays cabinet meet
ing dispatches from the Chilean govern
ment were submitted giving evidence of
conciliatory spirit on their part, that
were accepted as substantial ground for
belief that a satisfactory settlement of
the difficulty was pending, it may be
well to repeat what has been heretofore
stated in these dispatches, that since the
offer to Chile to withdraw Senior Matta's
offensive note. with an explanation that
was not satisfactory, nothing had been
received from that government.
1t will be remembered that in the note
Senior Malta commented on statements
made in the report of the secretary of
the navy and the presidents message,
and challenged the accuracy of state
ments contained therein. One of the
diplomatic rules of the United States is
that the reports of the heads,of depart
ments and messages of the president to
congress are matters of local nature,
not to be subject to comment OF criti-
cism of other nations. If it is desired to
speak to foreign countries communica-
ton is made through the state depart
ment. and the utterances of the secre-
tary alone are the proper subjects for
comment. In the offer to withdraw the
Malta note it is understood Senior Montt
was instructed to make the statement
that the note was Withdrawn because it
violated diplomatic rule of the United
States, not because it was in itself Of
fensive.
The navy department has ordered the
old single turlvt monitors, which for
years have bsen lying Gin ordinary" at
the naval academy and in the James
river at Richmond, to Norfolk navy
yard to determine their fitness for use
in case of necessity. The Passaic has
been at the navy yard, and the Ajax,
Carronicus, Mahopac, Manhattan and
Wyandotte at Richmond.

Mrs. McCurdy said further that pre-
vious to bath fire was kindled inside,
and when it was sufficiently heated the
ashes were swept out. The people came
to be cured of rheumatism. There was a
hole at the top to let out the smoke and
admit light. A stool or a scraw ON the
floor was used to sit on or stand upon in
