The corn crop of this parish

The corn crop of this parish
is reported to be very much inju-
red by the excess of rains. In
some low places where the drai-
mage has not been good the da-
mage is estimated at fully fifty
per cent; other sections will suf-
fer, but not to so great an extent
as the low and enthusiastically
drained portions. The other crops
are not yet seriously affected yet,
but if the rains continue much
longer, there is no telling what
the result will be.

JOAQUIN WAS TICKLE.
IN LOVE AS WELL AS
IN DRESS.
He Abandons Young Woman of
Whom He Was Fond, and Who is
About to Become Mother, So
His Enemies Say.

San Francisco, April 22.-Joaquin Miller,
the poet of the Sierras, who is notable
for his eccentricities Of apparel, as well
as for the qualities of his verse, figures
as a tickle lover in tale which has been
waited by southern breezes from the
Hawaiian isles. The name Of the young
woman connected with the poet in the
gossip is ARABIA Miller Oliver. She is
about II years of age, and her freshness
and beauty contrast with the advance
ment of life of the poet.
The story from the islands where love
is lkened to perpetual summer, is that
Miller abandoned the young woman, who
is soon TO become mother, and that she
is now wholly dependent on charity. She
is living with native family and has
been waiting for assistance from Miller.
When he arrived in Honolulu, he repre-
scented that she was his daughter. the
report stated.
Joaquin Miller was averse to discussing
the accusation when visited by a reporter
Yesterday He did not want to enter
into any dispute with the girl in order to
defend himself, and was willing that
her statements should go uncontradicted.
1t appears that he is still fond of her.
and from a remark which he let drop 1t
,vas inferred that he might return to
Honolulu If he can do so with safety, for.
The purpose of seeing her again Miller
was inclined TO think that the scandal
about him had been set af1oat by persons
in Hawaii whom he offended by his pub
iished criticisms Of the political conditions
of the island.

HOW AMERICANS ARE BEING

Being Given the Semblance of q

Houston, Tex, April 22.-Johnson H
Manly, locomotive engineer, who re.
Gently escaped from the coal mines about
eight miles from Monterey, Mexico, is in
this city. He said today:
II was born in Lexington, KY, where
my father was well known. Years ago 1
went to Mexico as an engineer on the In
ternational road. About seven years ago
we backed out of siding and ran over
and killed a Mexican peon. At the next
station our crew was arrested and thrown
in prison. We were refused intercourse
with friends. Then, without trial. we were
taken to mine No Q. near Monterey.
There are still twenty or thirty Ameri

January our guard got drunk on SNUG

Some of the prisoners in mine No. have
been confined twenty years. and none of
them ever had the semblance of a trial"
Manly tells this story in a straightfor-
ward way, and impresses one with the
truth of his sta tements. He says the
treatment accorded the prisoners Is
worse than Siberia.

peace with Lii Hung Chang and his

before their return to Hiroshima. The
emperor said:
THE principal points of treaty are
entirely satisfactory and add much to
the glory of the empire. am highly
pleased at the signal service rendered
by YOU
The following imperial proclamation
was issued this afternoon:
Through peace, national prosperity
is best promoted. Unfortunately, the
rupture of relations with China forced
upon US a war which, after the lapse
of ten months, is not yet ended. Dur
ing this period our ministers, in con-
cert with the army, navy and diet,
have done all in their power TO further
our aims in obedience to our instruc-
tions. Our ardent desire, with the as
sistance of our subjects in loyalty and
sincerity, is to restore peace and
thereby attain our object-the promo
ton of national prosperity. Now that
peace is negotiated and an armiStice
proclaimed a permanent cessation OF
hostilities is near at hand. The terms
of peace fixed by our ministers of state
give US complete satisfaction The.
peace and glory thus secured renders
the present fitting time to enhghten
you as to the course OF our future
policy.
I'VE are reioieed at the recent VIC
tories which have enhanced the glory
of our empire. At the same time we
are aware that the end Of the road
which must be traversed by the empe-
ror in the march of civilization is still
far distant and remains yet to be at
tanned. We therefore, hope. in COM
mon with our loyal subjects. that we
shall always guard against self con-
tentedneSS. but in a spirit of mOdeSty
and humility. strive to perfect our mil
itary defense without falling into ex-
tremes. In short. it is our wish that
the government and the people alike
shall work to a common end. and that
our subjects of all classes strive each
in his sphere for the purpose of laying
the foundation of permanent prosper
ity.
1t is hereby definitely made known
that no countenance will be given by Us
to such as. through cOnceit at the re-
cent victories may offer insult to an
other state or injure our relations with
friendly powers, especially as regards
China
After the exchange of the ratifica-
tons of the treaty of peace. friendship
should be restored and endeavors made
to increase more than ever before the
relations of good neighborhOd.
1T is our pleasure that our subjects
pay. due respect to these our expressed
wishes"

Butte, Mont, April 22.-An evening
paper prints a startling story about a
former we'll known woman, Mrs. ]. B.
Hestgate, having been locked up in a
private mad house at San Diego, Cal.
on charges trumped up by her hus-
band.
About ten years ago the woman
owned large real estate interests in
Butte, but her health failing, her hus-
band persuaded her to dispose of her
property and go to California. Since
then, her friends and sister living
here have heard little from her. Some
weeks ago, the sister received an
anonymous letter informing her that
Mrs. Hestgate was incarcerated in a
private asylum at San Diego. The
former at once went to her sister S
rescue and secured her release, and
has just returned to Butte with her.
Mrs. Hestgate is a physical wreck.
She says that shortly after they set
tied in San Diego she invested her
became worthless. She threatened to
sue for divorce, and then he schemed
to get possession of her property. He
destroyed their marriage certificate
and denied that she was his wife. She
claims that he drugged her and had
her confined in private asylum and
kept in solitary cell for weeks.
Friends charged her husband with her
murder, and in this way her where
abouts was discovered. Mrs. Hestgate
has secured copy of her marriage
certificate, and will return to San
Diego to recover her property.

SUGAR MACHINERY.
BOUGHT WITH PUBLIC MONEY AND
GIVEN AWAY.
Government VIII Have Hard Work,
at This Late Day, to Prove Own
ership, and it May Not Succeed In
Doing So.

Washington, April 22.-The depart
ment of agriculture has prepared re-
port in answer to the Senate resolu-
ton inquiring as to the whereabouts
and conditions of the experimental
sugar machinery. which was purchased
by the department at various times. at
a cost of about s2s0.0OO. So far the
report says, very little good has ever
been derived from 1t. The machinery
was loaned out to persons to make
experiments and it is now in the hands
of private parties. The most OF it is
in Kansas, though small portion is
In Florida and Louisiana. The depart
ment will also take UP the question Of
what to do with it and 1t is thought
that it will be appraised and sold.
Some difficulty is anticipated in prov
ing the title to the property. as a
great deal of it is in the hands of peo-
pie who claim possession In several
cases, the department of agriculture
has referred the government cases to
the department Of justice and it Is
expected that United States district at
torneys will be called upon to assist in
retaining the machinery

threatened people with death. They
wounded four deputy sheriffs and so

themselves in their houses TO save
their lives. kilograms were sent to
the town of Washington, sixteen miles
away, for aid and g company of troops
was put at the disposal of the sheriff.
Sunday morning the people Of Bath
started out to arrest the leading riot
ers. They captured five. One of them,
named Lanier, resisted and fired at the
posse and was shot twice and NOR
tally wounded. The other prisoners
were taken to Washington in boat.
An attempt was made by the negroes
to release them, but the attempt was
foiled by the arrival of the militia on
steamer.
All was quiet at Bath today. The
ringleader of the mob, Thomas Rem
ner, is still at large.
