LITTLE MISS ESTHER.
THE WHITE HOUSE BABY BORN
UNDER LUCKY STARS.
She VIII Arrive at Great Eminence Like
Her Father, Marry to Advantage
and Be the Mother OF
Three Boys.

New York, Sept. 17.-Little Miss
Esther, the new American princess OF
the house OF Cleveland. has future be-
fore her that is romantic and career
that Is distinguished, if the portents OF
the stars and the signs of the heavens
are to be trusted. Her horoscope has
been cast and the whole planetary sys-
tenn seems TO have done its prettiest 20
give the new baby place in future
In American annals. This is what an
astrologer said at the conclusion pof her
study: 1t is indeed fortunate nativity.
The baby is destined to arrive at great
eminence; to become noted and prom
inent like her father. She is fated to be
well-made, rather tall woman, most
closely resembling her mother; of a
compact and graceful frame. She will
be of light complexion, brown-haired,
with high forehead and deep express
sive eyes. The planets tell of her
courteous and gentle disposition; good
nature, mildness and charity will
be her chief characteristics. The fore
cast of the early part of her life shows
sickness and trouble of critical sort
after that her health will gradually inn
prove, though other critical times will
come. Her intellectually is very
marked, and there is every sign OF her
becoming notable woman. As a
woman she will have rare gifts of music
and song. She will take a place in
public affairs in all probability. Wealth
she is certain to acquire, if not through
her own mental exertions, through mar
riage at any rate. The planets saw this
will not take place before she is "a. and
che will enter the marriage state only
once. Her marriage will be one of great
worldly advantage. Her future hus-
band the signs make out to be charac-
ter not at all unlike hers. In appear
ance he will resemble herself. Her
marriage is destined to be a happy one.
They will have no more than three
children, and they are likely to be boys,
but there ia danger of two of them dy-
| ing in infancy. Miss Esther is destined
to long life.

HEMMED IN BY FLAMES,
A Day of Excitement at Ash

ASHLAND. Wis, Sept. 17.-This has
been an exciting day for Ashland. At
noon people were called from worship
by fire alarms. Cind6rs and smoke be-
came almost binding all over the city.
Over 1000 volunteers were added to the
fire department to fight the flames
which rushed in on the city from the
Odanan Indian reservation. AT 3 o'c'o *
there was wild cry OF despair among
the people living near the Milwaukee,
Lake Shore and Western railroad shops.
The water works had given out. Chemi-
col engines were brought out, but it was
useless to Try to stop the Aames, as a
high gale was blowing. The Rilrt q 1
chops caught FIRE, And dead locomotives
were fired up to rum sll the rolling stock
to the lake. Household goods were
burned and over 100 families are already
homeless. Twenty men were overcome
in fighting the flames and taken to the
hospital. Three families near Marengo
perished. There was no help to go to
them.
At Parishville large iron plant is
burning. A large number OF women
and children who ruebed to the lake
front were only saved by o desperate
effort with patrol wagons. The fire is
the same that has been raging further
south all week, and the heaviest part
did not reach here until today. Set
tiers arriving have pitiful stories to tell
and are being cared for by those who
still have houses. A man named
Egstrom was driven crazy by the loss
Of his wife and family Of two children.
His hair and eyelashes and clothing
were burned from his body when dis
covered. f
AS near as can be estimated the fire
now covers nearly 200 square miles and
standing pine will be very heavy aud
approximAtea not less than $4,000. 600.
A woman and baby, supposed to be the
wife AID child OF a settler, were picked
up in an insensible condition tonight
near the White river road. The child
died soon after arriving here. The
mother is in q delirium and it is. sup
posed her husband perished. At the
Odanan reservation, the Indians are
camping on raft on Bad river and are
hemmed in with an archway of flames.
All communication is cut off from the
surrounding small towns today. 1t is
impossible to give details OF toosy's
holocausts and losses, but if rain does
not come tonight the death list will run
up high.
Among the small towns and villages
through the burned section that may
have shared In the disaster are Marsngo,
White River, High Bridge and numer-
ous Others. IT the path Of the flames
took in such settlements as these, then
woe and death will surely have been
left in their wake. Parishville, which is
reported on fire tonight is composed OF
about 100 buildings in addition to the big
plants Of the Parish Manufacturing COM
pany, employed in the making Of min
ing and sswmill machinery. In Ash
land itself there is no immediate danger
al general confagration, unless cy-
clone or whirlwind OF fire should sweep
the city of the face of the earth.

LYNCHING In LOUISIANA.
THREE DARKIES DANGLING FROM
A TREE.
They We're Brothers of the Negro Who
Murdered Judge Estopinal-Three
Cousins of the Victims
Brutslly FIogged.

New ORLEANS. Sept. 17.-Volain,
Basil and Paul Julian, brothers of Rose
thus Julian, who murdered Judge Victor
Estopinal in Jefferson parish last Friday
afternoon, were arrested yesterday
charged with being accessories to the
crime. Last night mob OF armed men
rode up to the Jail. took the three men
out and hanged them in a grove near the
jail. Three other negroes. cousins of the
Julians. were taken from the Jail, se-
verely fogged and ordered to leave the
parish in 20 minutes.
When the posse arrived at the jail the
door was noiHelessly opened and four
men entered. In few minutes they
resppesred with three prisoners. On
arriving beneath the branches of lux
uriant tree two coils OF rope were un-
wound, nooses made and quickly fas-
tened around the necks of the terror
stricken negroes. The ends of the
ropes were thrown over large limb,
and when everything was ready the
negroes were told to make confession.
They seemed to have lost all strength of
voice. They mumbled prayers to
heaven. There was a pull, choking
bOuuu, anu tH5 thil DlhCk iOIu Vi Luo
elder negro swung with quick jerks
above the ground. His movements
were convulsive. His feet and limbs
twitched, they all was apparently over.
The rope was grasped again, and
the mex second another negro was dang
ling in the darkness. strangling to
death. The third was swung off in a
similar manner. Not a shot was fred.
Another visit to the Jail, and again
prisoners were brought out, three in
number. In dense, secluded spot two
! were tied up, their clothes stripped off.
and they were lashed and fogged with
| blacksnakes until their backs were ruddy
with almost their life's blood. Then
they were released, shown to the woods
and given 20 minutes to leave the par
ish. The third was taken to Camp Par
apet and there met the same fate that
had befallen his two brothers.
Chief of Police CASTOR was appealed to
for protection, there being repeated ru-
mors that negroes were gathering and
threatening. There is no doHDt consid-
erable excitement among the negroes re-
garding last nights lynching, but no
violence has been done nor have any of
the whites been ordered to leave their

The Provisional Governments OF Hawaii

WAsHNeroN, Sept. Ill. A. Thurs
ton, Hawaiian envoy, has returned to
this city. He was seen by reporter OF
the Associated Press this evening, and
said the laat information he received
from the provisional government was to
the effect that there was a surplus of
$3.50, 900 in the treasury, and the postal
savings bank had surplus of $35 900.
He regarded as most significant sign OF
the governments stability that an Issue
of $130, 900 of per cent. bonds for in
ternel improvements were put on tho
home market and sold, a few of them at
9S per cent. but most OF them at par.
"rhe attitude of Spreckeis," contin-
ued Thurston, sis simply matter OF
business. He wants cheap coolie labor,
and knows this system would be done
away with if the country was an Ameri-
can gtate."
Thurston, in conclusion, said most
emphatically, he considered the provi-
sional government strong enough to
hold the reins until the final decision
was reached. ut is the strongest gov
eminent Hawaii has had for years, il
che ever had stronger" said he.

A New System of Meat Ins peotion.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 17.-An important
order has just been issued by Secretary
Morton respecting the meat inspection
service of the agricultural departments.
After October 1st all hogs slaughtered
for interstate and foreign trade will be
inspected before slaughter and again at
the time the carcass is being dressed.
Instructions have been given inspectors
covering the inspection of cattle, sheep
and swine and their products, and they
will be enforced in all parts Of the coun-
try. The enforcement of these instruc-
tions will, in the opinion of the aecre-
tary, insure wholesome meat for inter-
state and foreign trade. but municipal
boards of health must still be depended
upon to protect consumers from diseased
animals which are for consumption in
the states in which they are killed.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 1.-THE bill to
repeal the purchasing clause of the So
called Sherman silver act will again oc-
cupy the attention of the senate this
week, to the exclusion of almost every
other subject. There will, however, be
break in the monotony tomorrow,
caused by recess in observance of the
centennial celebration of the laying of
the corner stone of the capitol, and pos
sibly another change OF programme
Tuesday whsn Senator Voorhees, will
attempt to extend the day session into
the evening. The silver advocates are
expected to do most of the talking, as it
has been the policy of their opponents
to avoid making speeches. Much inter-
est is taken in Senator Voorhees, an
nounced intention to attempt to pro-
long thet daily sessions. If he should
succeand szforcing the senate to sit at
night3ng Pc are those who think the
chang rs Nd be only Temporarily
AAd lELY WEEK IN THE HOUSE.
The i11ications point to very lively
week in the house. Tuesday the battle
over the Tucker bill will be resumed and
continue for the remainder of the week.
The Democratic managers confidently
expect majority of their own. This
will enable them to put down the fill
buster opposition of the Republicans.
General Tracey and the Democrats who
acted with the Republicans last week,
will also, it is understood, come into
camp. As soon as the Tucker bill Is re-
ported to the house the committee on
rules will Immediately apply the ma
chinsry necessary to bring it into the
arena of debate. The understanding
today 10 that not more than week at
the most will be granted for discussion
OF the measure. The Republicans leaders
will use every means in their power to
fight the measure, but once special
order is adopted, they will be bound
hand and foot.
THE NEW TARIFF BILL.
The time allotted for public hearings
before the ways and means committee
will expire next Wednesday, unless the
committee reconsiders its action, but it
is believed the majority will consent to
no such arrangement. 1t therefore
seems probable that the work of pre-
pairing the new tariff bill will be COM
menced during the coming week.

hundreds hurriedly rushed to the trains

ARKANSAS Cry, Sept. 17.-Thousands
OF people who yesterday made so great
an effort to get into the Cherokee strip
are making equally strenuous efforts to
get out today. Even as soon after the
rush as yesterday evening hundreds of
people came out from the strip and took
up quarters here. Today the return
move became an exodus, and tonight
the city is as badly crowded as it was
the night before the race.
THE GLAMOUR DIsPELLED.
The mystery which through 30 many
long years of anxious waiting shrouded
the real character of the Cherokee strip,
has been swept away. 1t WAS q prom
ised land, but has not kept it's promise.
1t may do 30 year from now, but at
present the strip is about the most un-
inviting uarter on the face of the earth.
Water is obtainable only in few places.
Food is so scarce that a Loaf of bread
costs 30 cents and pound of smoked
ham ia worth 81. The weather is suffo
eating, and another hot, parching wind
is blowing. The drought OF the past
month left the country burned dry. and
smothering dust, fine sand and ashes
fill the air. adding to the thirst and
general discomfort of the unhappy
boomers. Prairie fires are blazing in
many places, and the boomers are out
lighting off the flames.
BRINGING ORDER OUT OF CHAOS.
Today was generally given over to the
effort to bring order out of chaos.
Farmers families put up tents, ar
ranged their primitive houses as COM
fortably as possible. and began to search
Tor water. either in creeks, springs or
in driving wells. The county seats and
townsites have become busy commun-
tiles. AThose reached by railways are
fairly weilsupplied with provisions, but
in those off the lines Of travel the COM
moneBt commodities command fancy
prices. At Willow Springs water sells
at 10 cents a glass. Restaurants and
shops of all kinds, drinking places and
gambling shops have been established
in tents and are doing thriving busi-
ness. At Percy and Wharton today
church services were held, but were
very slimly attended.
LAND OFFICES BEsEIGED.
g. hO OCAbCA1 . VI ihbOkCob 6tO AOW btbuE-
ferred to the government land Offices.
At Kingisher today 800 weary boomers
lined up in front of the land Office and
will keep their places until the Office
opens tomorrow. At Guthrie no less
than 1900 men and women are in line.
At Percy line of men a mile long
stretches away from the land office, and
at Wharton 1900 people are in line. At
Pond Greek the crowd desiring to do
business with the land Office is enorm-
Gus.
"A DOZEN DEAD BODIES.
A dozen dead bodies have been found
between Arkansas City and Perry. Not
all have been identified, and the man
ner of death is the only factaecertained.
The number who received broken arms
and legs and other injuries in the rush
yesterday is very great, and doctors are
kept busy attending to the wounded.

Boomers Returning to Civilization by
Special Train q.
KANSAS CRY, No., Sept. 17.--A big
exodus of disappointed people from the
Cherokee strip began today. The Santa
Fe brought in three special train loada g
this morning and the Rock Island two.
All the regular trains on both roads were
crowded with men and women who were
glad enough 70 get back to civilization.
A whole party OF people from Illinois
who had planned to establish colony
of their own in the strip came back on
the Santa Fe. They were the most for.
lorn looking party the officials at the
union depot have ever seen. They
made the run on foot from the line north
of Orlando, o. T., and got nothing after
having stood in line four days at the
registration booth, sleeping on the
ground and existing on muddy water
and dry bread. Enoch Hooker OF Green
county, ILL.,, acted as spokesman for the
party.
''Uncle Sam has turned bunco steer
err" he said to reporter. ''He turned
over lot OF land of no value to poo r
people, and If they are ever able to pay
for it he will be receiving money under
false pretenses. The railroads and news
papers were in the play, too. ! predict
that this winter will see more sickness,
suffering and death among the people
who have gone to this promised land
than have ever been seen in any pioneer
settlement. Where we made the run
the crush was something terrible and
casualties were numerous. just before
the gun was fred one man started on
foot into the strip. A soldier of the
guard called upon him to halt and raised
his rife to his shoulder. The man .
partner rushed up to the soldier and
told him not to FIRE. The man kept on
running. The soldier fired and the man
dropped dead. The mans partner fred
and the soldier dropped dead. Just then
the signal gun announced the start oil
the race, and the double tragedy was
overlooked in the excitement. We are
glad to get back. and there are no sour
grapes in it. We honestly would not
take aclaim in the new country as gift
now, after what we saw of it. -
