AN Il-YEAR-OLD MURDERER.
His Cupidity Excited by a Gold

DENVER, Colo, Mar. 7.-[Associated
Press. THE trial of the boy murderer,
Anton Woods, who is scrrcely IL years
old, came to an end today by the jury
failing to agree on verdict, Eleven OF

favor OF acquittal
The boy, Woods, lived with his par.
ents on a ranch ten miles north OF Dem
yer, and on November 2 last, Joseph
Smith, OF this city, was in that vicinity
hunting rabbits. Woods volunteered
to show him where there was plenty OF
game. Smith was possessed of gold
watch and a new gun, and when Woods
saw them, as he afterwards confessed,
he determined to kill Smith and rob
him. Woods was armed with an old
musket and led Smith into ravine

him instantly. The young murderer
then took the watch and gun and went
home. He expressed no regret for the
crime and saws he would kill anybody
in order to obtain what he desired.

A DEATH KNELL.
No Free Silver for Four
Years.
Cleveland will Veto Any
Bill Passed.
Policy of the Administration
Outlined.
The New Senators Hard at Work-A
Democratic Caucus Held-Mem-
bers of the Cabinet Seated.

WASHINGTON, March, Associated
Press. THE Atlanta Journal, Hoke
Smiths paper, in dispatch from this
city signed by the editor outlines the
policy of Clevsland's administration
1t says appointments of office seekers
will not be speedily made. On the
question OF civil service Cleveland will
be more explicit than ever before. This
will be a business administration and
not huge partisan machine. The
president has given empathic notice
that he will veto any free silver bill
congress may pass. Tariff reform will
be indefinitely postponed as the finances
OF the government are in a precarious
condition.
The Democratic membe of the SEN
ate went into caucus this morning few
minutes after 10 O'Clock and remained
in secret session till long after noon.
They were discussing the question OF
organization. IL will be impossible to
get anything like definite idea OF the
situation until after today, as there is
every probability of lengthy session.
Up to p. m. absolutely nothing has
been accomplished beyond the express
sion of individual opinions. The pro-
gram contemplates the reorganization
of committees first, although it is given
out on good authority that before the
caucus lie over it will dispose OF the
elective officers. The time OF the caucus
30 far has been devoted to the consider
alton OF committee changes and chair
manships.
All OF the members of Cleveland's
cabinet, with the exception OF Gresham,
who was sworn in yesterday. today took
the oath OF office, which was admins
tered by Judge Field, OF the supreme
court.
Civil service examinations for post
Office positions take place today in the
principal cities Of the following states ::
New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware,
Virginia, Massachusetts and Vermont.

PERSIA IN A BAD WAY.
The Shah Now Under the Control OF y
Priestly Oligarchy.


Priestly Oligarchy.
The internal affairs of Persia seem to
be proceeding steadily from bad to
worse. A correspondent of the London
Times, who declares that he has the
highest authority for his statements,
writes: The priestly caste, which has
always enjoyed greater authority in
Persia than in Mussulman countries of
the Sunni persuasion, although hum
bled by the present ruling dynasty,
has exploited to the utmost the prevail
ing discomfort for the furtherance of
it's own ends and the revival of its own
prestige Mahdist doctrines-i. e., the
belief in the speedy advent to the
twelfth Imam, who is to sweep the I'M
believers off the face of the earth-have
always had a strong hold upon Shiite
Mohammedans. During the last Muhar-
rem festivals the priesthood announced
in many mosques that mahdi and
savior unto Persia had risen at Samara,
near Bagdad, in the person of Mollah
Hajji Mira Hassan Shirazi, and that
he was predcstined to rule over the
land. This ominous announcement was
rendered still more significant by the
omission of the lIhutbeh, the prayer for
the shah, which throughout Islam is the
most ancient and sacred privilege of
royalty. These incidents acquire all the
more gravity that the shah feels him
self helpless TO cope with the impcnd-
ing crisis. Treachery is rampant with
in the palace itself, and the shah's third
son. Prince Naib-es-Sultaneh, who is at
the same time minister of war, is known
to be in secret sympathy with the mall
content leaders. 1t is no eXaggeration
to say that the shah rules in little more
than name, and, as it were, on suffer
ance. The power, both in the capital
and the provinces, almost throughout
his empire, has passed out of his hands
into those of the priestly oligarchy,
who are the masters of the situation.
The grand vizier himself-Emin-es-Sul
tan-has been compelled to enter into
secret negotiations with the most influ-
entail of these holy agitators, NOLAN
Mira Hassan Ashtiany, in the hope,
it is alleged, of persuading him
that the deposition of the shah would
involve the occupation and possible par
tition of the last great shah kingdom
by the very Europeans whose presence
is SO loathful to every right-thinking
Mussulman."

THE CITY COUNCIL.
Many Measures of Little In
tereSt.
Mr.. McGlnnIs' Resignation Ac-
cepted-Concernln Van Buren,
Street Boundary.

A regular monthly meeting Of the
city council was held last night. Mon
day night was the stated date for the
meeting but a theatrical show inter.
vened.
Nothing of any special importance
was accomplished go it would not have
made great difference if the show had
fingered another night.
The usual monthly bills were read
and passed upon the usual applications
for the one hundred and one things the
average citizen wants were made and
considered.
The resignation of City Surveyor Nc.
Ginnis, mention of which was recently
made in The REPUBLICAN along with
its cause, was taken up and accepted
and County Surveyor j. p. Trott was
appointed to fill the vacancy.
Several men interested in the Van
Buren, street property were on hand to
zee about property boundaries in that
vicinity. Messrs Porterie and Schu.
maker who own property on the south
side OF the street wanted to known why
they could not build fence around all
the ground described in their deeds.
Mr.. Lount whose property lies on the
other side OF the street and just outside
the city limits wanted to known, If they
did, what would become of the 66-foot
street which had been set apart by the
founders of the city. The matter was
referred to the city attorney.
On the application OF trustees OF the
fire department a new code OF signals
was ordered. Several other matters OF
importance werc considered and the
council adjourned subject 10 the call OF
the mayor.

1T PUZZLES THE NATURALISTS.
No One Knows Exactly Why Manx Cats
Are horn Without Tnils.

Are Born without Tails.
The peculiar breed of cats found in
the isle of Man differs from others only
in that they have no tails, and the lack
thereof is the insoluble puzzle to nat
uralists Since it has become the fash
ion to explain everything by the prin-
ciples of evolution, two theories have
been offered--one, that owing to the
limited range and lack Of dense forests
the original cats had no use for tails,
and consequently (the tails, not the
cats) gradually atrophied for lack of
use and became rudimentary; another,
that the primitive Manx cut off all their
cats tails and in the course of time de-
veloped tailless breed. One thing is
certain, the cats are there and they have
no tails.
The highbred Chinese cat is a splendid
proof of what may be done by kindness
and culture. If you were to repeat to
a well-to-do but untraveled Chinaman
the current saying with us that cats are
selfish creatures, utterly devoid of affec-
ton, he would be very much astonished,
and, If the owner of thoroughbred,
probably indignant. The Chinese cat
appears capable of intense attachment
TO one person, and ages of selection and
careful breeding have the species up to
a high standard. The Chinese claim
that one of these cats-and any cat TO
some eXtent-is a valuable clock. In
the morning the pupil of its eye is a
broad band: il contracts rep1larlV till
noon, when it is a mere hairline, and
expands again as regularly till night.
So when Chinaman wants to know
the time of day he picks up his cat and
looks.
