Governor LewsIlinq has about decided
10 submit a message to the legislature
just before he retires from the executive
Office, taking as a precedent the action of
she late ex-G Governor John A. Martin who
sent . message to the legislature before
a. gave up his chair to Governor Lyman
~. Humphrey.
Governor Lewelling has learned some
thing since be has been governor and
among other things he has satisfied him
self that there are few offices which
could be abolished. without clogging the
wheels OF governme emit and at the same
time take a burden off the people.
Among the useless places the governor
will recommend to be abolished VIII be
the Office Of adjutant general.
The adjutant general and his help draw
salaries from the state aggregating
$4,000, and the work could just we'll
be done by a clerk in the governors
Office. In fact before the Office was
created to make a place for some pet
politician, the governors executive
clerk was ex-ofD clio adj utaut general and
did all the work Of the department for
the same paw be now receives.
The trouble Governor Lewelling and
his administration have had with Labor
Commissioners Todd has caused a careful
and the governor thinks all the work
could be done by an extra clerk in the
Office Of the state board Of agriculture.
and at least $2,S)0 a year could be saved
TO the state ia salaries
It il also proposed to abolish the state
board Of public works and assign the
duties Of its members to the members of
the state board Of charities, who have
charge Of all the state institutions. This
would save $4,000 a year in salaries and
an extra 81, U00 which now goes to an
assistant state architect could be cut off
The Office Of state Veterinary surgeon,
which is now filled by d Republican. is
also considered a useless office. as the
work could be done by specialist hired
when needed. at a great saving to the
state. This officer now draws ~, 500 a
year and puts ia very little time Tor the
state.
Governor Lewelling has a notion that
the state board Of health with its secre-
tary, who receives a salary Of $4,000
year, could be abolished and all the
work could he done by one man to be
designated state health commissioner.
In addition TO these there are two cleo
ton commissioners. one in Topeka. and
one ia Kansas City, Kansas. who could
be dispensed with and all their work
could easily be done by the city clerks o f
the respective cities
lit il also possible that Governor Lew
cling will, before be retires from Of
flee, do as Governor Humphrey did,

BUTTONHOLE BOQUETs.

What will the chappie wear in his
buttonhole this season?
In the first place there is almost an
equal division of opinion as to the cor
rect thing for the afternoon promenade.
One faction gives preference to the
modest and beautiful violet, while an
other appears only with white carna-
tons. The latter certainly appear just
a mere shade more dressy. For that
reason young swell of excellent sense
be made; the white carnations being
worn afternoons only for indoor func-
lions, teas and the like, while the violet
continues to hold it's supremacy for
|promenadeS upon the street.
For evening dress the white carna-
lions hold undisputed sway. They are
especially prepared for boutonnieres by
the florists, usually in the following
manner:
Selecting six or eight fine flowers, the
stems are broken off very short and the
inner seed vessel removed from each.
They are then wired together, usually
in oval form, and resemble a white
chrysanthemum. No leaves of any sort
are attached.
This idea came from London some
time ago.
A little later in the season white hya-
similar manner.
For ladies' afternoon promenade wear
the nodding violet stands unchanged;
for evening, roses in number CORE
spending to the size of the flowers. All
colors are worn, but they must not be
mixed; only roses of a single kind and
color are ermissable.-Boston Post.

Gaithersburg, Md, April 27.-The
journey of the army today. though over
good roads. was made more than usual
~ weary because of the succession Of
high hills and deep valleys. After
luncheon at Green Center, the tramp
was resumed and without incident the
army marched in here and at o'clock
went into camp about three-quarters Of
a mile from the center of the hamlet.
There are rumblings of discomfort in
the army, and there are predictions it
may go to pieces before Rockville is
reached.
There have been some happenings at
Rockville today.

RIOToUs MINERS REPENT AND &C
QUIETLY HOME.
Lieutenant-GOvernO Gill Pours Oil
Upon the Troubled Wnters-Stril&-
ing Miners Evicted-ThOusands
without Food at Iron Mountain.

Toluca, ILL.,, April 27.-The miners
who halted for rest at Big Sandy last
night, broke camp at a. m. today,
arriving at Toluca at a. m. with the
Blair brass band and drum corps.
There were nearly $500, although foot
sore and weary, they had not lost their
enthusiasm. Most of the colored miners
that work here left for other places last
night to avoid skirmish. The army
from Streator and Kingley arrived
later. Gill, president, J. Crawford,
and Vice-President James W. Murray
came in a special train and the confer
ence took place between the men and
Charles Devlin in the latter's private
car. The mine officials wanted Devlin
to address the miners, but he declined
saying he had not invited them here
The meeting was addressed by Gill
Crawford and Murray, who counseled
peace, and urged the army to leave
and told the Toluca miners to decide
for themselves whether to strike.
When Lieutenant-Governor Gill was
introduced to the assemblage of 1000
miners, he opened his address by read
ing kilograms he had received from
Sheriff LEM, and also the re-
plies he had sent in answer
to them, giving it as his opinion
that the ordering out of the militia was
Unnecessary. He said he knew that the
situation was not as serious as the sher-
if had represented it to be, and further
stated he had every confidence in the
miners not making a hostile demonstra-
ton. Continuing, he said:
you are well aware of my mission
here. 1 came here personally to view
the situation and have found you as ]
thought you were, peaceably Assem-.
bled and not of disposition to destroy
property or take life, as 1 was Informed
by the sheriff of this county in dis.
patches last night. 1 have come here
today and declare peace and to plead
with you not to attempt any violence
or obstruction Of property.
Lieutenant-Governor Gill then re-
quested the men to observe the laws
and to go home. They decided to dc
so. and fifty fiat cars were procured tc
carry the members of the assemblage
to their respective homes

Minneapolis, Mimi, April 27.-The
Twin City Athletic club had provided
II 700 seats about the elevated stage on
which was pitched the 1S-foot ring in
which Dan Creedon, of Australia, and
Dick Moore, of st. Paul, were to settle
the middle-weight supremacy, after
having fought a ten-round draw at Bos-
ton, but there were plenty Of vacant
seats when the fight was called.
Creedon had been the favorite in the
betting, and odds of five to two went
begging, in spite of Moore being practi-
cally at home Creedon weighed in at
100 pounds, and looked in good condi-
ton. Moore weighed 157 and looked fat
and a trif1e anxious.
The time keepers were Jimmy Man
ming, of st. Paul, for Moore; Billy Hal
pin, for Creedon, and W. J. Edwards
| for the club Credon had Shadow Mo-
Der, Tom Tracy, his foster brother and
Professor Frank Lewis, of the Column
bia Athletic club. behind him, while
Bobby Debbs, of Denver, Billy Need
ham and D. H. Benton did the like duty
for Moore. Sandy Griswold was ref
cree.
From the start, the men came to-
gether hard and during the twenty-five
minutes which; Moore was allowed to
fight, the pace was continuous. The
fight was a good one, although it was
apparent from the outset that Creedon
was too strong for the st. Paul boy.
Moore landed plenty Of good ones, but
Creedon was not worried. Moore drew
first blood in the third round.
Creedon played for the stomach.
Moore was tired after the fifth round,
and at the end of the sixth his right
eye was closed.
AS the seventh round opened, it was
plain that Creedon was Kidding for a
knockout blow
Moore was very nervous, and tried to
land his right, but failed. In the eighth.
Creedon pushed Moore all over the ring,
jabbing him at will, and the close found
the spot and Moore fell on his side with
short arm right as time saved him.
The ninth was Moore's Waterloo.
Moore came up strong and rushed Dan,
who promptly felled him again, with a
short arm right. He was up, and Dan
! tried it again. Moore half ducked, and
Dan gave a short upper cut with the
| left on the point of the jaw. Moore
went down on his side, and as the fatal
ten was counted rolled over on his back
and spread out his hands, defeated.
Before the fight c. H. Benton offered
to find backing for Bobby Dobbs, of
Denver, against any living lightweight.

Marshal.
St. Paul, April 27.-Two trains on the
Northern Pacific delayed by Hogan's
tramp train arrived here today.
Passengers say when Hogan reached
Forsythe, ne sought the station agent,
saying:
See here. Mr.. Agent. I want an en-
CINE to carry US on east
Certainly, Mr., Hogan the agent re-
piled. we will do all we can for you;
step right into my Office"
Hogan followed him and found dep
uty marshal waiting for him. A revol-
yer was thrust under his nose. He
yielded and sat down a prisoner. His
men patiently waited on the train, and
presently along came Colonel Pages
troops. The train was silently sur
rounded and before the Coxeyites knew
what had happened, a Gordon of sol
diers was about them and they were
prisoners. a few of the prominent
leaders were singled out and sent to
join Hogan in the station, leaving the
others under guard on the train. A few
escaped in the darkness, but most

One Hundred and KUenTy--One Men

Adair, Ia, April 27.-One hundred
and twenty-one Sacramento men were
missing today when Kelly massed the
Industrial army for march. The men
asserted last night that they would
walk no further, and after breakfast
prepared to steal rides. Rain began
falling soon after dawn and there was
scarcely sufficient teams to haul the
baggage. The grumbling among the
men was loud and deep. Kelly ordered
the army forward, telling the men TO
take the railroad instead Of the wagon
road, if they wished.
But dc not interfere with the
Trims" he commanded. IF You do,
YOU cannot go further with me.
The five mile tramp TO Casey was
very slow, but a hot meal and coffee
revived the mems courage and on the
remainder Of the trip better time was
made. One of the Council Bluffs ad-
vance committee, r. 0. Graham, be-

found only a solitary basket of bread
and a pound Of coffee here. He was
incensed at the failure to provide food
and issued the following appeal to
Mayor Bemis at Omaha:

movement. Send US supplies by rail
as soon as possible. We urge you once

TRAIN, BUT NO POWER.
Engineer Quietly Steals Away with
the Engine.

Troutdale, Oregon. April 27.-The in
dustrial army here has been very quiet
all day, on account of the rain. About
p m. they were notified by friends in
Portland by telephone that a freight
train had left when they made prepare
tons to move, and when the extra
freight arrived the army was all on the
track ready to take the train. The
train pulled up to the station and did
some switching.
United States Marshal Grady read an
Iorder from the court to the army and
asked them if they intended to take
this train, and they answered, Yes, we
are going on to Washington"
The engineer cut off his engine and
pulled out for Bridalveil, fifteen miles
distant, leaving the army in possession
Of the train. The army is still holding
the train, but were much chagrined
when it dawned on them that they had
been fooled.

ALL WERE CALLED OUT.
Strike Now on from ST. Paul to the
Pacific Coast.

Minneapolis, April 27.-The Amer
lean Railway union this afternoon
called out all the men in the employ of
the Great Northern in the Twin cities.
The strike is now on from st. Paul
to the coast. President Hill proposed
his plan of arbitration at the last con-
ference between the mems committee
and the road, but it was rejected.
When asked for a statement of the
situation, after the strike was de-
clared on the entire Northern system,
today, President Debs, OF the Amer
lean Railway union, said:
1.-The conference with Mr.. Hill was
carried on pleasantly, but without the
effect of bringing them any closer to-
gether AS to the claims he has enough
men to run the road, I believe Mr.. Hill
has been misinformed by his own
friends who overestimated their num-
bers. Strict orders have been issued,
saying that all strikers along the line
stay in their homes and refrain from
the running of any trains which the
company may attempt to move. II any
violence is offered, or if any injury is
done to the property of the company,
it will be in direct violation of the in
structions of the committee, but the
trains will not run simply because the
company cannot get men to handle
that having appealed against a wrong
that was inflicted upon them, the men
should not be asked to arbitrate. 1t
does not admit of arbitration. I don
anticipate the strike will extend to the
Northern Pacific for the present, at
least"
President Hill was called on imme-
diately after the order for a general
strike had been issued, and stated he
had very little additional to say, other
than what had already been given out.
The company, he said. proposed to- op-
crate its road independent of the Amer
lean Railway union.
Tonight everything is closed up in
these two cities and along the line of
the road. The Brotherhood men, al
though not actively Joining the strikers,
seemed disinclined to work with non
union men and feared the possible dan
gers of green men on the switches.

VIII Mnlze a Forced March.

Stuart. Ia. April 27-General Kelly
announced tonight that he will make a
forced march Of forty-one miles to Des
AIoines, ana that he intends to be there
Sunday. The army cannot reach the
state capital before or o'clock Sun
day morning, and it is probable that
the twenty-hour march will leave many
OF the men by the roadside. The in
dustrials presented a solid front when
they marched into Stuart at o'clock
tonight, but not more than 500 men
were in the column, the remaining 400
coming struggling in for hours, on foot,
on wagons, Oh the railroad tracks and
on the wagon road. The men We're well
fed at Stuart and although tired out
are in better humor tonight.
