WANTS TO FIGHT.
Professor Baker Stirs Up the
Scientists.
A PATRIOTIC STATEMENTS.
Groat Britain Given to Laying Claim TO
Other Peoples Property and
Then Urging That the Ques-
tion he Arbitrated.

WASHINGTON, Dec 2. - Professor
Marcus Baker of the coast and geodetic
survey, who went to Alaska for the
United States in connection with the
boundary dispute stirred the usually
mild scientists of Washington by the
boldness of his declaration in lecture
on Alaska before the National Geo.
graphic society in the rooms of the Cos
mos club.
He secuted the idea of arbitrating the
question of England's claim to the 5000
square miles of territory between Port
land canal and Beam canal, on the
southeast border of Alaska, and said the
only arbitration admissible was the ar
bitration of battle if the British claim
should be insisted upon.
The sentiment was loudly applauded,
and at the close of the address Mr.. Baker
was invited by popular vote to repeat
the lecture in larger hall.

The lesees Of the Hooking canal

their own bargain and will again
appeal to the Legislature. They
paid $4,000 cash and agreed to pay
$4,000 year for the lease and IL
greed to have the railway running
by the first of next May. They
paid the $50 GOO but done little or
nothing toward building the road.
They want the time extended or

Phipps of the Chattanooga police force
was the possessor of three fine blood
hounds quite famous. Two weeks ago
Phipps took his dogs to Morgan county
to run down the negro Hurd.
Jud was put on the trail and led 100
men Il chase of about 200 miles, consum-
ing two days and nights, but it seems
the old dog deceived them. This so in
furisted the party that they got the dog
and kept lner until Phipps had gone

PITTsBURa, Dec. 2-There seems no

those familiar with the local conditions
that the coming winter will be one of
strife between the miners and operators.
Hope of a peaceful adjustment have
been generally abandoned The "true
uniformity" plan is no nearer establish
ment than it was before the last conven-
ton. The policy that the coal miners
will likely introduce will be that Of
making individual fights against the
operators who refuse to pay the price.

Adventists Predict That the End win
Come In Few Days.

Cohle IN " rev DAYS.
KoKoMo, Ind, Dec. "A colony Of
Adventists south of this city believe the
millennium is at hand. According to
their figuring the end will come next
month, shortly before the holidays, OBJ
Waiting the need of the usual crop of
Christmas presents.
They give number of reasons for
their faith but the one most lnsistently
urged is that there will be two full
moons this month, something, the Ad.
ventists say, that has not occurred since
the first coming of Christ. nearly 1000
years ago. They also figure trouble in
the fact that 1895 will be the last leap
year for eight years, 1900 being the only
centennial skip of that event in 400
years. Still another ominons sign to
the Adventists is the trouble in the
east the massacres and butcheries of
the Turkish empire and the horrible
scenes of carnage on the sacred soil of
Bible history and the birthplace of
Christ. They believe that everything
points to the early destruction of the
world, and feel sure tho end will come
within tho next 10 days.

merce of that section of the world,
there IS every reason why we should not
Pull Her Chestnu.s Out of the Fire.
The proposed railroad would open up
an immense domain for the interchange
of trade, and by directing our influence
in the right direction, we ought to Sc
cure a very large share of it. The North
ern Asiatic country is rich in natural
resources, which with this means of
reaching market, would be virtually
SO much wealth added to the world s
stock. Furthermore, the Siberian peo-
pie are entitled on the grounds of hu-
manity, to an outlet to the sea. Siberia
is all isolated country at best, and l for
one, should oppose any effort on the
part of the United States to prevent the
people of that country from securing
this one ray Of light"

FAILED TO FLAG THE TRAIN.
Collision Said to be Due to Brake
mans Carclessness.

Sioux FALLS, :. D., Nov. 2.-The
physician attend ng Dan Cannon, the
conductor who was hurt in collision
of the Sioux Falls express, on the Cedar
Rapids and Northern railroad, Wednes-
day, says that the injured man may
possibly recover, although he. at last re-
ports, had not yet reganed conciousness.
He was i'll the lookout III the top of his
caboose when the passenger train, going
at a speed Of 40 miles an hour, came
around curve and crashed into the
freight. When the passenger train had
come to a standstill, Cannon was seen
to fall off the tender Of the passenger
engine. The passenger train was going
SO fast that the engine ran right
through the caboose and one freight
car, passing under the freight conduc-
tor, who was in the top of the caboose.
The blame for the wreck seems to point
to brakeman on Gammon's train, who
was told to flag the passenger. The
brakeman says he did so, but the pas
senger engineer asserts that he saw the
brakeman jump from the freight just
before the collision occurred.
