A boulevard along the sea from Bos- ton to Newburyport is proposed by friends of good roads in Massachu- setts. As planned. the new highway would pass through Newbury. Rowley. Ipswich. Hamilton. Wenham. Beverly. Salem. Lynn. and Revere. ending at width would be eighty feet. and there would be no grade-crossings along the entire route. The road would be laid out under the act of 1892. which estab- lished commission to improve the highways of the state. By the terms of the law 1t would be necessary for the authorities of Boston to surrender to the commission control of such thor oughfarcs in East Boston as would form a part of the boulevard: this the city might not be willing to do A conference to consider the plan will probably be held between the com missioners of the counties which would be benefited by the new highway. An equally ambitious road scheme Is the proposition to connect the public parks of MiddleseX Falls and the Blue Hills, the one north of Boston and the other south of the city. This highway would run along the shores of Mystic Lake and Spy Pond and traverse the new Cambridge Park on Charles river and the west-end park of Boston known as the Fens.

In South Dakota there have been D. B61, ,3S6 acres of officially pronounced arid lands reclaimed and brought under cultivation by irrigation. The first cost of this work of reclamation is given as $S,0OO,OOO, and the value of the 'rrigating system some three times as much. Before irrigating these lands were valued at s77, ,OOO, ,OoO. while they are now said to be worth nearly $500 900, 900. These figures are given out in advance of the coming irrigation convention which meets in Denver next month.

French statesmen, notably M. Se- vile, arc endeavoring to entend to France the benefits of the American homestead, and as there is no word in the French tongue which is proper equivalent for it, the word itself, "homestead " is retained in a bill that has been introduced in the chamber Of deputies.

The State department has an inter- esting report from the United States consul at St. Petersburg dealing with the probable effect of the open ing of the Siberian railroad on the wheat supply of Europe. Consul General Jonas thinks that from West Siberia alone at least G,OOO,0OO bushels of wheat will be brought into market by this railroad, and that the completion of the line will so stimulate wheat rais- Ing as to make the probable shipments from that section in succeeding years much greater. Immense crops are now raised in those Siberian districts which are nearest European Russia. In three of these districts, Tobolsk, Tomsk and Yenisulsk, the surplus for export was over 30,000,000 bushels in 1889 and has been enormous in each year since. There are sections of Siberia which will be made accessible by the new railroad which are better adapted to wheat raising than these fertile districts and the quantities to be marketed will probably increase yearly. There is no encouragement in these estimates to American wheat growers.

One of the experiments made by those whose business it is to test the strength of dynamite, gun cotton and other ex- plosives, is to place two fresh plucked leaves between two plates of panel steel and explode cartridges on the upper plate. The recoil in such cases is Is driven downward. with such force and rapidity as to catch exact impress ribs have time to give way to the force of the blow. This novel method of en- graving is one of the wonders of the century.

A young woman of Oregon has ac- complshed what the most experienced fanciel has been unable to do; that is, the domestic propagation of the Denny pheasant. She has tanned the wild young chicks so that they are willing to feed among domestic fowl and do not try to escape to the woods and fields She has four pheasant hens in captivity, and puts their eggs under a domestic fowl It is the opinion of experts that chicks matched from the eggs laid in pheasant's native nest in the fields and matched by domestic fowl will never be tanned.

The increase of traffic since the intro- auction of electricity on the street car lines of Chemnitz, saxony, has been 60 per cent. notwithstanding the strenuous opposition to the change and the year of exceeding hard times. The cars have ho conductors. The motorman is the only person on board who represents the company. By doing away with conductors the company saves A, 900 marks annually. The fare is only ten pfennigs, or trifie less than ? I-2 cents on all routes, including transfers, Should 150,00o persons evade payment !n twelve months the loss would be only l5,00O marks. It would take 45O GOO bvasions in fare to offset the companv's
 Savings by dispensing with conductors Salaries. Among a people who pay for food and drink in restaurants, saloons and gardens, on their honor alone it is

CARES AND CLOTHES.

VARIED AND VAV NGOs Sometimes Put Off Together-Some-
 times Not.
 Old Sir Robert Walpole used to say that he put of his cares when he, put of his clothes. That was easy for tough, rugged old fox hunter, even when he had the weight of government on his shoulders. Sir Robert had a g pod digestion, and that counts for more in wooing sleep than a clear conscience.
 Mrs. M. V. Cole of g! Bloomne.d street, Ho- ;boken N. J., had bad digestion after recov- ering from the grip. She was thin, nervous and debilitated. She had no appetite and felt dreadful pains after eating. She could not sleep. Her husband had heard that Paskola would make thin, dyspeptic people fat and well. Mrs. Cole tried it. April IS, 1894, she writes:
 After taking the second bottle was as well as ever and had gained wonderfully in every way, I wish everyone could know of and use Paekola. It certainly can be consci- cautiously recommended to the weak, sick and suffering everywhere"
 c. AsBaker of Newark, N. J., writes: PRE-DIGEsTED FooD Co.,,
 " 90 Reade street, Now York:
 Gentlemen--1 wish to say Paskola has done memore good than any other remedy have tried. In fact, none helped me but Paskola, and have used everything I could think of, having been in the drug trade for years until Ihad to give 1t up and try outside work.
 That did not accomplish my recovery from indigestion and constipation, but Paslkola gave me better appetite and color almost at once, and shall never be without it if can get it"
 Such letters as this are coming in; every day. All respectable druggists sell Paskola. The reasons for it's success are explained in . descriptive pamphlet which will be sent free to any address on application to The Pre-Digested Food O.. 90 Reade street.

FRANKFORT, KY, June 4.-Congress-
man Breckinridge spoke here today to
an enthusiastic gathering of 1000 people.
He was met at the depot by 500 people,
who cheered him heartily as he rode off
on the train. The speaking was billed
to be at the city hall, but 1t was found
that not one-third of the crowd could
get in, and the meeting adjourned to the
state house yard, where he spoke from
q table.
He was introduced by ex-Mayor
TAYLOR, and was greeted with such ap-
plause that he could not commence his
speech for 15 minutes. He spoke about
an hour and half, and made one OF the
most eloquent addresses of his life. He
did not attack his opponent as severely
as ON other occasions. This county has
always been considered Owens strongest
point, but the reception today was GER
tainly beyond all expectations. Many
ladies attended the meeting. Colonel
Breckinridge was dined at the home OF

pie Greek has been settled. Late this
afternoon the conference between Gov
ernor Waite, ]. J. Hagerman and David
III. Moffat arrived at an agreement salts
factory to all parties. The conference
began at 8 O'Clock, at the request of the
governor, and as soon as the party as
sem bled Governor Waite announced that
he was authorized to act for the miners,
and consideration of the many points
was begun.
One point caused considerable COM
plication, and that was the time allowed
for luncheon. The miners demanded 30
minutes, and that they be allowed pay
for the time. The articles OF agreement
provides that the miners shall work 8
hours day with 20 minutes for lunch.
that they be paid at the rate OF 81 per
day and that the mine owners shall not
discriminate against either union or
non-union miners. At the conclusion OF

The Flood of the Columbia River
Continuss Causing Distress.
Oregon Rivers Still
Rising.

PORTLAND, Ore., June 4.-The river
reached the 3I-foot mark this afternoon
and is still rising. Hundreds OF per-
sons whose places of business are sub
merged have moved out and established
new temporary places. In the lower
portions OF the city, where a great many
poor persons live, the condition ia most
deplorable. Great numbers have been
driven out by the invading waters and
have taken temporary refuge wherever
shelter can be found. Much distress
already prevails, and should the flood
rise much higher and continue for any
length of time, great deal OF suffering
will follow.
The tow.boat Maria. owned by Cap
tain F. B. Jones, keeled over on her
port side at her moorings between Pine

The central wharf, 200 feet in length
at the foot of Washington street, hosted

getting loose by heavy cables. A num-
Der of other wharvea are in perilous
condition and may go out any time.
The temperature has fallen 10 degrees
at Baker City during the past "a hours,
from which it is eurmised that it has
hu
the Columbia and it's tributaries, in
which case there is possibility of the
cessation of the rise on Wednesday
morning.
TACOMA, WASH, June 4.-There is only
one way of getting east by rail from
Puget sound. 1t 10 over the Northern
Pacific to Spokane, and from there over
the Union Pacific branch line to Ripa-
ria, transferring by boat across the
Snake, where the big steel bridge is
swept away, thence resuming on the
same branch line to Umatilla. from
which place the main track OF the
Union Pacific is open. Assistant Cen
eral Superintendent Dickson OF the
Northern Pacific has returned from a
trip over his road. He says a5 miles OF
the Northern Pacific is under water from
Horse Plains, Mont, to Odin, Idaho,
15 miles west of Hope. He adds that
business on that division will be sus-
pended until the waters recede. The
Northern Pacific Ia clear between here
and Kelso.
The Puyallup, Stuck and White rivers
between Tacoma and Seattle are very
high and still rising. The Stuck has
overfiowed farms near Sumner, doing
considerable damage to hop yards and
crops. Waters are higher than they
have been for many yearH. Assistant
General Superintendent Dickinson OF
the Northern Pacific says General Man
ager Case of the Great Northern rode
with him from Helena to Spokane Fri
day and left Spokane with blankets and
valise full OF food, to look for his railway
east of Spokane. Many miles OF the
Great Northern are washed out.

ARMOR PLATES.
The Investigation of the Montersy's
Covering Resumed.

The Investigation of the Montersy's
Covering Resumed.
WASHINGTON, June 4.-The armor
plate investigation was resumed today.
Lieutenant w. O. Cowles, of Marble
head, was the first witness. He was
appointed inspector at the Homestead
works in 1898. The first pates had
been furnished in January, 1892. While
il would have been possible to re.treat
the plates, the lieutenant did not think
1t had been done.
The witness said he never knew OF
test plates being re-treated. In his
opinion every plate of the armor now on
the warships would come up to the min
imum tests.
the witness said he had inspected all
the plates on the Monterey, not one oil
which WAS defective go SO to endanger
the ahip in time of war. One plate had
large hlow-hole about Is inches in
length. Chairman Cummings remark ed
that the hole was large enough to receive
a baby's head.
Lieutenant Holcomb of the navy, one
of the inspectors of the Carnegie works,
stated that his observation led him to
the conclusion that the Carnegie com
pany and the government we're at the
mercy ot the employees. The latter
could commit irregularities in epite OF
the company or the government.
Officers of the company told
the witness that workmen were using
false scalps and bad material in order to
'get even'' with the company for the re-
suits of the strike of '9l. Lieutenant
Holcomb said five government inspectors
could trace every plate from the time it
was an ingot until it was finished armor
The witness said no underhand work
was being practiced now at the Carnegie
works. He had observed there was a
bitter feeling among the workmen
against the Carnegie company.
Further testimony will be taken on
Wednesday

CENTRAL CITY, Colo, June 4.-Let-
ters have been sent to the officials of the
Union Pacific, Denver and Gull road
stating that II trains are not run as far
as Black Hawk In the next two or three
dave. there will be much suffering here
for want OF provisions, and that the coal
supply Is already very short. Many
mines will have to shut down If more
cannot be had.
The damage from the food cannot be
estimated in figures. What will be de-
veloped from it, is impossible to say.
The miners are suffering. The Saratoga
mine will probably be compelled to close
down permanently and othe Q for some
time.
The track OF the Gilpin O. / mtg tram
way is washed out along Cle~. creek,
and the Gulf road almost everywhere.
On the switchbac there are several big
landslides, while along the creek the
bed is washed out in r'-Atches OF from
so to 500 feet, leaving all, and ties sus-

1t will probably be week or ten

tion in this state today was p great vic
tory for the Republicans. Judge Lord,

lieved the Repu blicsns will control both

cut off from Eastern Oregon, and not a
word of election news has been received
from more than half OF the state.
Out of 800 votes counted in this city
Judge Lord. Republican, for governor,
received 1870. If this ratio is maintained
throughout the state he will have o
clear majority over all other candidates,
and O plurality of more than $4,000.
The entire Republican state ticket is
elected.
The vote for Ellis, Rep, for congress
in the Second district is slightly below
that of the governor, but his plurality
would not be short of 1000.
Hermann, Rep, for congress in the
First district will have at least 1906

No Bond Issue Contemplated.

WASHINGTON, June Alt can be stated
on the best authority that the published
statements OF another bond issue being
in contemp plation are absolutely without
foundation. Mr.. Carlisle, when asked
today regarding the matter, stated the
subject OF another bond Issue had not
been mentioned in the cabinet. and ne
had held no conference with the presi-
dent regarding it. The cash balance in
the treasury at the close of business to-
day was $1l7 .449, ,039, OF which $75. 1885,
1866 is gold reserve. An engagement OF
81, 400, 900 in gold for export is reported
from New York, which leaves the true
amount OF the gold reserve $74.c64, ,4S6.
