the sundry civil bill, taking up the
amendment relating to the transfer OF

ENDED IN BLoopsHEp.

Tacoma, March 16.-William Cush-
man and w. w. Russell, farmers, were
shot this morning at Lake Tapps, near
this city, by John Arcott and his son.
Cushman was killed and Russell badly
wounded. Both the Arcotts surrendered
to the sheriff this afternoon. The crime
grew out of fight over a county road
at Lake Tapps, which has kept the en-
tire settlement in that section at war
for many months. On Wednesday last
one of the Russell family visited the
Office Of County Commissioner Barthel-
NEW over the matter and was thrown
out Of the commissioners office. This
morning Russell, Cushman, the Arcotts

rel, which resulted in the murder

Failure.

The Vagrant Law to Be
Enforced.
WITHOUT FUNDS OR RAT'oNs
Associated Press.

Los Angeles, March 16.-"Gen." Fry's
army of unemployed, organized to
march on Washington, is a grotesque
failure. The city council and board of
supervisors and officers of the associ-
ated charities met this morning and de-
cided to relieve all meritorious cases of
destitution, but to recognize no organi-
zation Of unemployed. Five hundred
dollars was subscribed for immediate
use. Work will be supplied on the
streets, and the vagrant law will be en-
forced. The authorities will disperse
any army or like organization. The
army numbering about 800. on learning
the result of the meeting, abandoned
its barracks and marched out of the
city apparently beginning its. great
march, They had no organization, and
no leadership. Their leaders are said
to have looted the treasury, and the
main body was without funds or ra-
tions. A large majority was without
blankets. Before they reached Alham-
bra, five miles distant, many had
dropped out and retreated to the rail-
roads in hopes of catching the trains.
Deputy sheriffs and constables along
the line of march have been notified
and will vag all members Of the dis
persed army as fast as opportunity
offers.
Sheriff John C. Cline received infor-
nation this afternoon that members of
the industrial army who left this city
this morning were in the vicinity of
Monrovia, and that II was their pur-
pose to hold up the through freight
train on the Santa Fe, which leaves
this city at s. this evening. The sheriff
called to his aid large force Of men as
deputies, who will proceed to the locali-
ty on a special train. Brig. Gen. John
son and the sheriff are in communica-
ton with Gov. Markham, who will or
der out the national guard Trouble of
a serious nature is apprehended. 1t is
possible that an encounter will occur
before morning.

AN ARTISTIC BURGLAR.

San Jose, Cal, March 16.-Oscar He'll
gren, who pleaded guilty to burglary
committed in this city several weeks
ago, and who was captured with a con-
federate named Funk, was this morning
sentenced to seven years in San Quen-
tin. Hellgren operated extensively in
Portland, and 1t was the fear Of being
taken there to answer for burglaries
that caused him to plead guilty here.
Funk, his accomplice, was taken to
Portland a week ago. Hellgren is 25
years of age and one of the most skill
full cracksmen In the country.

THE WAR is OVER.
Waite Decides to Leave the Question to
the Courts.

Denver Col, March 16.-The war is
over At last it is announced by At
torney l. N. Stevens, who has been in
consultation with the governor a large
part of the afternoon, that his excel
lency has accepted the advice of his att
torneys and consented to submit the
fire and police board question to the su-
preme court on its merits. The gov
ernor says he is still considering the
matter, but it is generally believed Mr.
Stevens speaks by the book. So the ma
tional guard, which was ordered to be
ready to take the field on short notice,
will not be called into action. The state
troops at Durango, Lake City, Pueblo,
Colorado Springs, Grand Junction and
other centres have been uniformed and
under arms all day, ready to take spe-
cial trains to Denver, and the state
troops in this city have been on call.
Many people regard the governor $
military demonstration as big bluff
tn show his contempt for Judge Gra-
hams injunction and to compel the
Judge, IL possible, to arrest him.
Cen. McCook's ordering the United
States troops to this city has been ap-
proved at Washington, and he has or
dered them from the Union depot to
the Gettysburg building on Chainpa
street where they will remain till fur
ther orders. Prominent attorneys and
other distinguished citizens have peeh
laboring much of the day with GOV.
Waite to submit the matter to the su-
preme court, which has power to call
upon the counsel for both the old and
new police boards to settle their cases.
Interogatories to the court are based on
the police forces being in existence the
right of the governor to remove from
power and to appoint others to fill the
vacancies, and his right to call upon
the militia to seat the appointees in
office.
Sheriff Burchinell sent the following
telegram this afternoon:
Denver, Col, March 16, 1894
Daniel s. Lamont, Secretary of War,
Washington. d. c.: / am quite able to
maintain the peace here unless the milf
tia of the state are used against me.
Nobody but the governor is seeking to
disturb the peace. and he is acting In
contempt of the district court of THIS
county.

Associated Press.

Denver, March 16-At O'clock this
morning everything was quiet, await
ing conference between Gen. McCook,
commanding the federal troops, and
Gov. Waite. Five companies Of the Sew
enth United States infantry are camped
at Union depot. The police force has
been greatly increased since yesterday,
and still holds the city hall. 1t is un-
derstood the force numbers $780, and will
under no circumstances surrender. 1t is
expected Gov. Waite will order the
state troops from other points, now un-
der arms at the armories, to come here.
They number $50 enlisted men.
Gov. Waite has addressed a letter to
Gen. McCook, asking that the govern
ment troops be withdrawn from the city
because the latter refuse to assist in
carrying out the governors purposes,
but will simply confine himself to main
tanning the peace.

Mineral Blotting "Paper."

Mineral blotting stone is novelty.
It was exhibited at the meeting of the
National Academy of Sciences recently
in session at Washington. On the desk
of one of the scientists was a thin slice of
light colored stone. He used it for
blotter, and it absorbed ink better than
the new mineral plotting stone, soon to
be put on the market by a Missouri
firm. The stuff is formation COM
posed of sediment deposited by certain
hot springs. 1t has been accommodating
for ages in the locality mentioned, and
is available in inexhaustible quantities.
Highly porous, it will take up surpris-
ing quantity of ink. The merchant will
employ it incidentally as a paper
weight, and occasionally the Office boy
will scrape it off with knife-an easy
task, the substance being very soft
making it as good as new.

fact that the horse, large, powerful

advantage of the fact that the horses

The white Gala lily of our gardens is
we'll known, it still retaining the original
name of Gala, although botanists have
in modern times removed it to another
genus, which is called Richardia. Gala
will, however, long be its common
name. 1t has been frequently limited
that there are species with other colors,
which would soon come into cultiva-
ton; but so far these have been mere
rumors. It is now definitely known that
there is bright yellow species,
which has been named by botanists
Gala Elliottiana The one in cultiva
ton, known as Richardia maculata, has
slightly yellowish tint sometimes.
The new one is said to be a clear vel
low, and has leaves spotted with white,
similar to our common maculata. Only
one original plant was introduced, and
it is said there are only few propa-
gated from it in cultivation. Ten plants
were recently sold at auction in Lon
don, and bought by enterprising forests
for $1,000, which is considered the larg-
est figures ever obtained for auction
plants. Another yellow one has been
introduced under the name Of Gala

having larger foliage and richer colored
spathes, but which has not yet been Of

A BLOOD-THIRSTY DOG.

Having Killed Calf and q Young Lady
He Hangs Himself.
The Rev. and Mrs. Joel Chamlin at
tended the silver wedding of Mr.. and
Simeon Hartman, of Harrodsburg, KY,
in the adjacent county of Washington,
few days ago. Mr.. Chamlin was the
owner of ferocious bulldog, and be-
fore leaving for the wedding he at
tached large block to the brute's collar
to prevent him from running away.
When the couple returned home the first
thing that attracted their attention was
their faithful watchdog hanging over the
yard fence, the block securely fastened
to the top rail, his feet nearly touched
the ground, and hung by the chain un-
til he was stiff in death. They walked
into the yard, and there found young
calf that was in the yard also dead and
considerably mangled. Mr.. Chamlin
took the horse from the vehicle and led
the horse to the barn, and his wife went
into the kitchen to kindle a fire. Her
screams alarmed her husband, and he
fastened to her relief. He ran around
through the back yard to the kitchen,
and there a terrible sight met
his Mortified gaze. On the back
porch, near the kitchen door,
lay the liteless and mangled form OF
a young lady. 1t was SO mutilated that
it could scarcely be recognized. 1t was
the corpse of Miss Mary, the 16-year-
old daughter of John Brand. Miss
Brand had, soon after dinner, walked
over to spend the afternoon with Mrs.
Chamlin, and borrow some patterns.
and her delay had not alarmed her par
ents, as they did not expect her return
until after supper. The opinion gener-
ally prevails that the animal was affiict-
ed with rabies, and killed the young
lady before making the attack on the
calf.
