Mr.. BLAINES CONDITION.
Bis Family and Physicians Say There is
No Cause for Alarm-He Was Dressed
Yesterday.

No Cause for Alsrm-He Was Dressed
Yesterday.
WASHINGTON, D. c., November 25.-
Mr.. Blaine's condition was again the
subject of universal interest to-day
made so by the publication of state
ments that his ailment had taken turn
for the worse and that his life was In
imminent danger.
IfMr. Blaine's physician and the
members Of his family are to be De-
lieved. such statements are misleading
and not warranted by the facts. Last
summer year ago Mr.. Blaine left the
city TO see his daughter before she
sailed for Europe. 1t was on that oc-
casion that he fell I'll and was removed
to his cottage at Bar Harbor.
Last summer he had another attack,
buL since his return to Washington he
has been in a state of health that may
fairly be described as his normal condi-
tion. capable of earnest work, fond OF
omen air rides and walks, and cheerful,
but withal very sensitive to irregularl-
ties of diet and 10 sudden changes OF
weather.
from which Mr.. Blaine is now suffering
is very similar and no more dangerous
than those which have preceded it. He
caught cold and he was imprudent In
his diet. Some congestion followed and
there was fever en- train. The stom-
ach was made torpid and there was q
difficulty with his digestion.
Notwithstanding reports to the con-
trary it can be said that Mr.. Blaine has
shown no signs Of mental alteration or
delirium. There has been much diff
Guilty encountered in the effort to get re-
liable news as to his condition, and this
has fostered the origin and spread Of
exaggerated stories of MIR. Blaine's con-
dition.
D. w. w. Johnson, who is in charge
of the case, called at the house and had
short consultation with DR.. Hyatt,
who has been treating Mr.. Blaine
specially for stubborn bronchial af-
fection. Subsequently DR.. johnson in
formed q representative Of the Asso-
ciated Press that the published reports
that Mr. Blaine is seriously i'll are en-
tirely without foundation.
The 1act Is, 10 saiui IueIo 10
nothing really serious the matter with
him. The slight cold with accompany
ing fever from which he suffered last
week has entirely passed away, and he
is so much improved to-day that he is
able TO be dressed, and to move freely
about the ROOM"
He felt sure that Mr.. Blaine would be
able to go out OF doors in few days,
and that he is well able even now to
stand journey IN case such course is
deemed necessary for the better treat
meut of his case.
1t is learned from another source that
Mr.. Blaine will soon be. removed TO
some point in the South with the hope
that the warmer climate will have a
beneficial effect on his bronchial trou-
bles which seem TO have been aggra-
waited since the cold spell set in here.

Stories OF starvation.

SEATTLE, WAsHN., November pa
startling story of starvation among the
miners in the mountains east Of Snohomish
has lust reached here oy E. T. Keit and
Fritz Ellingstone, who had been for hfty
hours without food. The freshets hemmed
the miners in, and on account of their ex-
hausted condition they were unable to get
to the transport and obtain new supply
of food. Keit and Ellingstone are the only
men out of fifty miners who started for
Snohomish four days ago to get in. The
others dropped along the route from sheer
exhaustion ond want Of food, and 1t IS
feared they are lost in the woods. The
survivors had scarcely any clothing when
they arrived which, with their pinched
and gauut features, testified to the truth
of the alarming tale. News from the Hood
in the distant Skywomish river shows the
damage to be enormous, and that the next
freshet may cause the river 10 take a new
course, thereby destroying the business
part of TIE town of Sutton. a famine is
likely to occur among the railroad camps,
both among the @en and horses, unless
some means are devised of getting supplies
from east of the mountains. A tree fell
across the camp of James Park, near Ste
vens City, killing three men ald seriously
iniuring Edward O'Brien and two others.
No mails have gotten into Sutton since NO
yember 10th.

Three Men Garry on 100 In Money,
Besides six Gold Watches and Other
Booty.
PORTLAND, ORE, November 25.-The
Northern Pacific passenger train which
was held up by the three masked men
last night near Hot Springs, Washing
tOn, arrived here this morning. d..
Miller, one OF the passengers, gives the
following particulars Of the robbery:
was sitting alone In the smoking
compartment of the Pullman when
three masked men entered the rear end
of the car. One of them knocked my
hat off and roughly said: Throw up
your hands and do 10 damn quick" l at
once acceded 70 the request, and one Of
them proceeded TO relieve me of my
money, gold watch, diamond ring ana
scarf pin.
All of the passengers complied with
the order 90 hold up their hands. and
while two of the robbers remained sta
tiOnary at either end the third passed
ND the aisle and took up a collection.
Ladies were not mOlested. The booty
amounted 90 about 81, 100 In cash, be-
sides six gold watches and considerable
jewelry.
Their work completed, the robbers,
who had confined themselves 10 the
sleeper, rang the bell for the train TO
stop, keeping the passengers under
cover. When the train had come al
most 70 stand-still they signalled for
it to 20 ahead, jumped from the plat
form into the darkness.
No one on the train except those in
the sleeper knew Of the robbery until
after the robbers escaped. The rob
berS are supposed TO have been the
same parties who robbed the bank at

PAINTING MACHINE.
It Does the Work of Regiment of Paint
ers and Does IL Well

CHICAGO, November 25.-ArtiSt Frank
Millet has invented a machine TO paint
the big white buildings at Jackson
Park. With the assistance of this ma
chine two men can smear as much paint
or calcimine In a day as forty men with
brushes. The invention, aside from the
speed with which 10 decorates the build
ing, possesses the advantage OF never
going out on a strike or quarreling with
the boss for shorter hours and larger
pay.
1t is simply a gas pipe about 3 foot
long, pounded fiat at one end, so as TO
leave an opening about an inch across
aud wide enough to insert q sheet OF
cardboard. This pipe is attached TO a
long piece of rubber hose.
The other end of the hose is dipped
in a barrel Of paint. An electric motor
pumps a current of air ana a lot OF
paint through the hose. The force of
the air Scatters the paint In fine spray
as it comes from the gas pipe. a painter
simply seZes the gas pipe, holds i,
eighteen inches from the surface he is
decorationg, the electric motor is turned
on and the work is done.
Several men were sprinkling the
rafters Of Electricity Hall to-day with
calcimine. They were on top Of a tall
sJaf0.d mounted on wheels and covered
o greater area than a whole gang OF
painters could in a fortnight 1--WE
made an estimate OF the time it would
take 10 color these buildings with
brushes, " said Mr. Millet, 'and found
we had not time to do it that way.
There are acres of ceilings to be paint
ed, so we turned the machine on them
and it does the work we'll"
