THE MILITARY RESERVATION LANDS
No Orders Issued Yet TO Drive Off the
SquattcTS.


Washington, D. c., Sept. 9.-Tt is said
at the war department that up to this
time no orders have been issued to
,dispossess the settlers on the military
reservation at the upper end Of Vashon
island and other islands on the Puget
Sound. Some time ago the secretary of
war visited that county, as did also
General Ruggles. While there, both
discussed the matter of what is known
as intruders on the military reserva-
lions, of which there are about so in the
department of the Columbia.
General Otis, in command Of this de-
partment, has taken a special interest
in these matters, and is now investi-
eating them with a view to turning
over such of these reservations as will
not be needed for Notifications to the
interior department, for disposal to set
tiers, and clearing the others and main
tanning them as military reservations
until such time as they may be needed
for the purpose for which they were re-
served. Until the generals report has
been received it is said no action will be
taken looking toward driving settlers
from Vashon island. Neither will Gen
eral Otis take any action himself until
he has advised the department of
what he proposes to do and his action
receives the sanction of the secretary
OF war.
General Otis report of the affairs in
the department of the Columbia is ex-
pected soon by the secretary Of war.
1t will be turned over at once to the for
tifications board, who will have the
power to decide what reservations on
Puget Sound made for military pur-
poses will be needed All others will
then be declared unnecessary, and the
secretary Of war will issue an order
transferring them to the department of
the interior. At some subsequent time
these abandoned reserves will be
thrown open to settlement, either by
act Of congress or by presidential proc
lamatiOn.

Chicago, Sept. Skier Hardie, the

to abandon the floor. Hardie had been
invited to address the preachers and
with several local socialists attended
the meeting. The Englishman pro-
ceeded to air his views, loudly applaud
ed by his friends, and finally bitterly
denounced the execution of the Chica-
go anarchists and eulOgized them as
pioneers of a new religion.
The storm which greeted this state
ment almost carried Hardie off his
feet. Half a dozen preachers bitterly
denounced the sentiment expressed,
and the speaker was compelled to sit
down. The ministers then proceeded
with scathing denunCiations of the
speech and speaker. Hardie left much

Date and Disaster.

The old rhyming prophecy tells us that

Some warlike natiOn will draw the sword,
But peaceful nations in peace will thrive.
One thousand eight hundred and eighty
eight was the fifth year of modern times IN
which the aggregate Of the figures was %,
and it was the first in the series which ex
tends over period of nearly 200 years, in
which the predictions of the prophet We're
not literally fulfilled.
In 1899 Russia Poland and Denmark
formed the alliance against Sweden. which
inauourated the great war which ended in
the disastrous defeat Of Charles MI at
POltava.
The year 1889 is one of the dark dates
in the annals of time because of its being
the wear in which the French revolution
broke out and ragged until after the reign
Of terror
The year 1898 witnessed the famous
campaign of Napoleon into Egypt and the
formation of the second European coali-
ton against France.
The next date upon which the sum total
of the figures in the date aggregated %
was 1879, and in that year Great Britain 5
troops invaded Afghanistan, leaving be

formal declaration of war, but it was one
of the most disastrous of modern times as
far as shipwrecks, mine accidents, railway
disasters and general mishaps are con-
