Prof r. b. Bryan, ex-state superin-
tendent, has been offered the position as
principal Of The Aberdeen schools. Aber-
deem is to be congratulated on having
secured the services OF so able an in
structor.
One OF our Young Republicans driited
into the Populist primary last Friday
evening, Gust to see what was going on, p"
and before he realized it he was elected
as a delegate to the county convention.
BY dint of persuasion he got them TO
elect substitute, and thus hopes to
avoid suspicion.
Thomas HUMPHREYS, who undertook to
clear out the foreman last Thursday, was
brought back from Copals last Friday by
the deputy constable, Walt Pebbles. He
had a heating before Judge Palmer, who
fined him $40 and costs, amounting to
about $19, which he paid. When man
gets an idea that smashing another in
the face is right, he needs watching, as
he is probably getting "wheels in his
head"

WILLIS DEMAND.
We're Queen Lis Enemies
In Hawaii Requested
To Surrender?
AN ALLEGED REPLY.
The News Not Credited in Wash
ington-Awaiting Positive
Information.
By Gable to the United Press.

LONDON, JAN 5.-A despatch from Auck-
land, New Zealand, states that the American
steamer Alameda, from San Francisco, via
Honolulu, has arrived there, bringing
Hawaiian advices to December %. Accord
ing to these advices, the greatest excitement
was prevailing in Honolulu. A number Of
policemen who had been requested to bear
arms in defence of the Provisional Govern
ment had refused to do so and had been dis
missed from the Government service
1t is further stated that Mr. Willis, the
American Minister, had written to the Pro-
visional Government declaring they must sur
render office, as the United States had decided
in favor of Queen Liliuokalani, who had
agreed to grant amnesty to the men who had
overthrown her Government, to ratify the
Government obligations, and to govern the
islands according to the present constitution.
The Provisional Government at the time the
Alameda sailed was preparing a lengthy re.
ply to Minister Willis's letter.
The Commercial Advertiser of Honolulu
declares that the American Congress has
taken the Hawaiian matter out of the hands
of President Cleveland, and that the Pro-
visional Government will not retire unless it
is forced to do SO. The paper holds that the
employment of force to depose the present
government is not likely.

BANQUET TO A LIBERAL.
Hon. wfIfred Laurfer's Address In
Quebec.

QUEBEC, Jan 5, 1S94-A. grand banquet
was given at the Hotel Frontenac last night
to Hon. Wilfred Laurier, leader of the
Liberal party in the Dominion House. The
absence of ex-Premier Mercier was notice
able The toasts of the Queen, the Governor
General and "Our Guest" were received
with great enthusiasm. Letters were read
from the Premiers of Ontario, Nova Scotia,
New Brunswick and Prince Edward Island,
and many other public men, expressing re-
gret for their unavoidable absence. Mr..
Laurier responded to the toast to his health.
He attacked the Protective policy as the
great enemy of the British people and of all
people loving liberty. He spoke of Glasgow
as city made by free trade, which has
developed itself in iron ship building.
He could Dot see why Quebec, with
SO many ships of the wooden type could not
now start an industry similar to the Scot
tish city, but it was clear that protection was
killing Quebec and the rest of the Dominion.
Mr. Laurier maintained patriotic stand
throughout his remarks. He glorified the
French past and present, and then dwelt on
the great English institutions and spirit of
liberty which existed commercially and
constitutionally in that great nation. He
was not ashamed to repeat in Quebec what
he had said in Toronto, nor was he afraid
to repeat in Ontario what he had uttered in
Quebec Mr. Laurier was cheered at the
conclusion of his speech. He was followed
by Hon. Mr. Tarte and several others.

THE WAR IN BRAZIL.
Government Forces Are Successful
Against the insurgents.
BIZ Gable to the United Press.


LONDON, Jan. 5, 1S94.-A special dispatch
to the United Press from Lisbon says that in
a fight that occurred at Rio Negro, in the
State of Santa Catharine, Brazil, between
the Government forces and the insurgents,
the former were victorious. The insurgents
left forty killed and nineteen prisoners. The
date on which the engagement took place is
not given. A number of guns and quaint
ity Of munitions of war fell into the hands
of the Government forces. The dispatch
adds that on December Is, 16 and
II, the insurgent warships Amazcnas,
Guanabara Admirante Tamandare and
Jupiter, aided by three launches bombarded
Rio Janeiro, Many persons were killed or
wounded. Ensign Goncalves, member of
the National Guard, was killed by the ex-
plosion of a gun. Some of the splinters
thrown by the explosion were scattered over
the British bark Balaklava, lying near
Cobras Island
The despatch further says that Fort Lage,
held by the Government, fired on the
steamer Ruapehn, which was attempting to
force the bar, and compelled her to return
outside
The Government newspaper o Tempo has
suspended.
The British steamer Ruapehn, 1859 tons
burden, sailed from London December Is,
for Rio Janeiro 1t may be that this is the
vessel that is alleged to have been fired upon
by Fort Lage, but in shipping circles little
credence is placed in the statement that
Peixoto's forces have fired upon vessel car
rying the British flag.

SENSATIONAL RUMORS.
Fire Department Positions For

WOROEsTER's BIG BLAZE.
An Early Morning Fire Destroys
Business Block.

WORCESTER, Mass, JAN 5, 1s94.-Early
this morning the fire department was
called out to fight the fercest fire
that has occurred in the business section of
the city in many years. A large granite
five-story block, owned by R. c. Taylor,
was almost totally destroyed, and it was
with difficulty the flames were confined to
that one building The first floor of the
block was occupied by Clark, Sawyer & Co.,
dealers in crockery, glassware, etc
The fire started in their pack
ing room in the basement, and swept up
wards by means of the elevator well. The
alarm was sounded at twenty minutes after
three and was followed by two general
alarms calling out every available piece of
apparatus in the city The block faces east
opposite the common and City Hall.
In the rear and on the north is an alley
way, and on the south Jonas G. Clark's big
block towers. This building was saved by its
big, fire-proof party wall, sixteen inches
thick. Torrents Of water were poured on
the flames and after two and
half hours work they were entirely
subdued, but not until the entire rear half of
the block had been Quilted and the entire
building practically ruined. 1t was insured
for only $27, 800 Clark & Sawyer were in
sured for $4,000, which will probably cover
their loss. The other tenants of the building
met with small losses.

SEVERE COLD IN ENGLAND.
Number of Vessels Fast in the Ice
One Wreck Reported.
E,f CnfIe In the United Press


LONDON, Jan. 5, 1s94-The extremely cold
weather that is now prevailing has delayed
the mails in the north of England. A mail
cart running between Sleaford, Lincolnshire
and Peterboro, Northamptonshire, has not
yet arrived at the latter place. 1t is thirteen
hours overdue. At Spalding, Lincolnshire, a
laborer named Smith has been found frozen
to death.
Snow has been falling in the county Of
Westmoreland, Northern England, for
twenty-four hours, and the storm shows no
sign Of cessation The roads in every direction
have been rendered impossible by the
drifts. This condition of affairs is not pecu-
liar to Westmoreland Two mail coaches
running between London and Cambridge, in
Kent, are showed in on the road Dispatches
from various outlying districts in the Mid
land counties report the non-arrival of mail
carts
The intensity of the cold in Cornwall may
be Judged from the fact that many OF the
inlets of the sea there are partly frozen
over.
The suffering of the poor all over the
country is terrible. In London the weather
has already caused rapid increase in the
death rate.
In Cornwall the cold is greater than be-
fore experienced in fifty years.
In Hyde Park, London, the thermometer

Thames, from Windsor to Teddington, is
frozen over.
A number of trading vessels are fast in the
ice in the middle of the stream. A vessel
went ON the Goodwin Sands, in the Strait of
Dover, last night Warning of the wreck
was given by the firing of guns from the
North Sand Head and Gull Lightships,
but though the Efeboat on
shore was run down to the surf
it was impossible, because of the heavy sea
running, to launch her. Consequently, no
assistance could be sent to the stranded YES
sci. The Goodwin Sands is one of the most
dangerous points on the English coast
AT daylight this morning the wreck had
disappeared, having probably been pounded
to pieces, and without doubt all of the
crew were drowned. A piece of
wood having the name Christina paint
ed on it, a seaman's chest similarly
marked, and quantity of other wreckage
have come ashore. 1t is believed that the
lost vessel was the Swedish bark Christina,
Captain Kullsen, from Trapain, for Gothen-
burg.
A despatch from the Isle of Wight, where
the Queen is at present sojourning, says that
the mercury registers 10 degrees above
zero (Fahrenheit), which is the lowest point
it has reached in hundred years. The River
Yar in the Isle of Wight which empties
into the Solent, is frozen over to within a
few yards of the Solent.

JUMPED FROM THE BOAT.
Proof That A. G. Rowland Conn
mftted suicide.

FALL RIVER, Mass, Jan. 5, 1884, Facts
which have come to light within day or
two furnish convincing evidence that A. c.
Rowland, the Boston man whose disappear
ance from the steamer Pilgrim last Friday
night h as been SO much of mystery, conn
mitted suicide.
1t appears that short time before the de-
parture of the boat from here that evening
man stepped up TO the counter of the res
taurant on the Fall River Line wharf and
began talking to himself.
The waiter, William Haworth, asked him
if he wanted anything.
In reply the stranger said Yes, want to
jump over this counter" Then putting his
hand to his forehead, he added: 81 have q
very peculiar sensation here. Won't you
come out and see me jump off the boata I
am going to take leap overheard from her
tonight.o
The proprietor of the restaurant, Mr..
Trafton, said in kindly way to his erratic
customer that what he needed was a good
sleep, and suggested to him that he go aboard
and get into his room at once. The other adj
mitted that that would be the proper thing
to do, and left the place.
Nothing more was thought of the matter
until the story of Howland's disappearance
appeared in the papers Monday A descrip-
tion of the unfortunate man was given Mr..
Trafton, and he says it tallies exactly with
that Of the stranger who acted SO queerly in
his place.
