DA CANVAS LAST E.,TTLE.
When Overwhelmed he Committed Sui
eide.

BUENos AYREs, June 2S.-From one
of the rebels who escaped capture by
government troops after the insurgent
defeat near Santa Ana, Rio Grande do
Sui, Brazil, details of the last battle in
which Admiral Da Cana took part,
and of his suicide, have been secured.
The admiral, at the head of force of
400 sailors, was engaged by brigade
of government soldiers numbering
1900. The battle lasted five hours,
and at least 800 men were killed or
wounded. Some of the insurgents ad-
vised Da Cana to retreat, but he re-
fused and they abandoned linn. With
a handful of men the admiral repulsed
five charges of the government cay
airy, but the struggle was hopeless,
and, seeing that all was lost, Da Cana
ordered retreat and cut his own
throat.
Da Gama's body was taken to Santa
Ana by the government troops and
there horribly mutilated. The throats
of many of the captured rebels were
cut by the victorious soldiers.

PAID THE PENALTY.
DR.. Buchanan, the Wife Murderer, Elec.
trocuted.


SING SING, July 1.-Dr Buchanan,
the wife-murderer, was electrocuted
this morning. Mrs. Buchanan, wife
of the condemned murderer, today
made an unsuccessful effort to induce
Governor Morton to commute her
husbands sentence to life imprison-
ment. At o'clock this morning the
woman sank on her knees and pleaded
for her husbands life. Grief almost
prevented her from speaking. Cover
nor Morton. was overcome. Tears
stood in his eyes as he lifted her to her
feet, and told her he could not grant
her request.
The following dispatch was received
at the prison from New York.
"To Wardon Sage, Sing Sing prison,
New York: The opinion of the at
torney-general is misleading, and
misstates the facts as to the appeal.
The Buchanan case is in the supreme
court of the United States, and by the
United States laws your authority is
stayed. You must choose between
your supposed duty to the state and
obedience to the supreme laws of your
country. (Signed) Arthur G. Butts.
George W. Gibbons" Mrs. Buchanan
arrived on the train reaching here at
1920 A M, and was taken to the resi-
dence of the pastor of the Presbyterian
church. Wardon Sage sent her word
that she could not see the prisoner, as
when she arrived the prison officials
were already preparing him for the
electric chair.
At lila the witnesses were called to
the execution chamber. Electrician
Davis was at the switchboard. In a
closed box was a convict, who, upon a
signal, was to turn the switch. When
the party was seated, the electrician
put bank of incandescent lights on
the chair, and sent a current through
them. There were 1740 volts in the
bank. When the current was switched
off, the warden and two guards ap-
peared at the door with DIR, Buchanan.
He walked in, and without word took
his seat. In about 30 seconds he was
strapped, and in 40 seconds pronounced
dead. The voltage of 1740 was kept
on 80 seconds more. 1t was the quick
est, most successful execution ever
seen at the prison.

A STRANGER AND A HERO.
To Save Others a Young Man Probably
Gave Up His Own Life.

TACOMA, Wash, June 30.-For an
act of heroism in saving women and
children from the fury of mad bull,
John Christer will probably lose his
life. Seeing the bull making for the
women, he rushed up to head him off.
The bull turned on him, his horns
catched Christer on the ri ght side of
his abdomen, ripping it open to the
left side. He was rolled and tossed by
the mad animal with his intrails pro-
truding. The last part of the en-
counter was witnessed by several men
who rushed in and bore Christer out
of the Tacoma driving park, in the
west end, where it occurred. He was
taken to the Fannie Paddock hospital,
where the protruding bowels were re-
placed. The man is unknown, and is
too weak to talk, though he recovered
consciousness at l P. NJ. If inflammation
sets in, he will die.

INDIGNANT AT THE DELAY.
Dilatory Course of the Turkish Govern
ment Condemned.


CoNsTANTINoPLE, June 2S.-Repre-
sentatives of the powers are continu-
ing their efforts to induce the Turkish
government to give an explicit reply
to the note of the powers outlining the
reforms demanded for Armenia, and
foreign ENJOYS are indignant at the
delay. 1t is thought the dilatory
course may result in causing the
powers to address another note to the
Turkish government in which they
will request definite reply within a
fixed time to the demands already
made.
The British Mediterranean squadron
left Alexandria Tuesday, and steamed
north.
The Turkish government has re-
ceived news of the defeat of two in
surgent bands in Macedonia. Steps
have been taken by the porte to sup
press all attempts at revolt, but it is
thought the rebellion will spread to
all parts of Macedonia, and eventually
cause action upon the part of the

THE SOUTHERN HELD UP.
Train to Portland stopped by Highway
men Near Riddles.

men Near Riddles.
GRANTS PASS, Or, July 1.-The
Southern Pacific overland, north.
bound, was stopped tonight at 10:1j
P. M, by three highwaymen, near
Riddles, about 80 miles south of Rose
burg, and thoroughly robbed. Sticks
of dynamite were placed on the rail,
which disabled the engine,by blowing
the flanges off the pony trucks, and
brought the train to stop Taking
the fireman, two of the highwaymen
proceeded to go through the train, and
every car, from the express car to the
rear Pullman was searched. Nothing
was obtained from the express car for
there was no treasure on board.
III the mail car better success was
met and the Portland-Tacoma-Seattle
Victoria (B C) registered sack rifled.
The passengers were also searched
pretty thoroughly, but just what sue
cess was met with is not known. One
highwayman took hasty shot at Con-
ductor Kearney, who was in charge of
the train, but no damage resulted. A
description of the men, or rather one
of them in particular, is given as,
height, 5 feet IL inches, light complex
ion, light mustache, projecting and
high cheek bones. He wore about
No. shoe, with tacks in the bottoms.
Had on blue overalls. The description
of the other is that of a man about
feet inches in height, but as he kept
in the background, a definite descrip-
tion could not be had.
Superintendent Fields, of the South
ern Pacific, lost no time, and in an
hour after learning of the hold-up had
two parties on the way to the scene of
the robbery. A posse of officers was
hastily made up in Roseburg, and
started at once, and another of rough
and-ready mountaineers started from
here. Both will reach the scene by
daylight. Every effort will be made
to capture the robbers. The men Of
the party started from here are thor
oughly familiar with every foot of the
ground in the neighborhood of the
robbery, and pretty good hopes are
entertained of capturing them.
The train was delayed several hours,
having been compelled to turn the en-
gine around and go into Roseburg
backwards.

One catches an echo of many laments in
Miss Bronte's novels. Her materials are
inevitably derived from her experience.
But find nothing about "hysterical gov

DISEASES OF BEES.
A Number of Maladies TO Contend with,
Like other Communities.

During the last few years, thanks
chiefly to the enterprise of the British Bee
keepers association, tho keeping of bees
has made great progress in this country,
and it is now rare to see the humblest cot
tage without its two or three hives while
in the course Of a railway journey one may
often see a large field dotted over with the
elaborate structures which serve the mod
ern bee for residence, all of them care
fully facing the east SO that their inmates
should be walked by the first rays of the
sun, and surrounded with other fields in
which honey producing blooms reduce
their labor to a minimum.
With the increase of bees, however, has
come the spread of disease in much more
rapid proportion. The old method used to
be to keep the bees in a straw skip. and
when they had filled it with comb at the
end of the season to suffocate the entire
community with sulphur and appropriate
the results Of its industry. This of course
was not only a cruel, but an extremely
wasteful method Nowadays, with the
modern frame hive the honey is taken
without disturbing the bees, and they are
carefully packed up and preserved during
the winter and even fed if they run short
of food.
The modern hive, however, is subject
to the beekeeper's principal trouble
namely, what is called ''foul brood" No
body knows exactly what this is, or how
it is produced, but it takes the form in the
first place of "a disooloration of the combs,
and afterward of complete putridity,
which is equally patent to the eyes and
the nose. 1t is extremely infectious, and
as bees are constantly visiting one an
others hives for predatory purposes, when
it appears in a district it speedily spreads.
1t is said that when tho beekeepers of
Kent recently employed an expert to ex-
anime their hives, 1O9 were found to be
diseased out of 807.-London Chronicle.

EVIDENCE multiplies on every side that
The business of the country is on the sure
road to recovery, The worst symptoms
of commercial and industrial disease have
disappeared, and all that the patient now
seems to require is time and quiet The
struggle with Clevelandism has been a
severe one, but the Republic will un-
dOubtedly be wiser, and it is to be hoped
1sounder, in the long run, for the ordeal
through which it has passed. The public,
therefore, should take courage. With
the Democracy driven from power in
Congress its opportunity for assaulting
the national credit, American industry
and the currency system has ceased and
producers and employers are now able to
count with fair measure OF certainty
upon the future. The buzz of the loom

Looks Gloomy Tor Ohio Miners.

MAssILLoN, o., April H.. President
Ratchford of the Ohio Miners association,
says the outlook is SO gloomy that it is
impossible to predict from one days end
to another just what is going to happen.
1.-THE Ohio operators" Mr.. Ratchford
says, "are disposed to deal fairly with the
miners and will pay any price within rea-
son, whether it is sixty cents or more, if
they can secure such conditions as will en-
able them to compete for business. For
years it wasthe rule to pay thirteen cents
more for coal in western Pennsylvania
than in Ohio, and this continued until
1887 when, because of the Introduction Of
natural gas and for other reasons, the diff
ferential was reduced to nine cents. Now
these same operators in Pennsylvania pro
pose to pay sixty cents, which is the pre-
sent scale rate in Ohio. The contest can
only result in grinding down the wages of
the already underpaid miners.
