Washington, March 30.-Frank B..
Clarke of st. Paul is in Washington
on business connected with the Land
Company Of Superior. of which he is
general manager. Mr.. Clarke says
that it is rumor"d in Philadelphia
that a number of spikes have been
found driven into the ways which
supported the steamer st. Paul, and
which prevented the launching. 1t is
said that it has not yet been discov-
cred who is responsible for the ma
licious act, but that a careful search
is being made. The yard is closed and
no strangers are admitted. Mr.. Clarke
heard the story on the train. and
there may be nothing in it, but if it
is correct it would explain what has
seemed to he incomprehensible that
the st. Paul should have been the first
vessel in twenty-five years to refuse
to leave the ways.

VERY BAD GIRLS.
Outbreak in n Chicago
Female RefOrmatOry

Chicago, March 30.-Three members
of the board of trustees of the state
home for juvenile female offenders
were given a practical Illus tratiOn
last evening of the INSTRUMENTATION
which has reigned among the inmates
for several weeks past. Mrs. Charles
Henrotin. Mrs. j. d. Harvey and Mrs.
G.. NJ. Holt spent the afternoon at the
home and took supper with the in
mates. The thirty girls confined in
the home took advantage of the pres
nce of the representatives of the
management to show what they could
do in the way of rioting. They sue
ceeded so well that they smashed
nearly all the crockery in the house,
diSmantled the dining room furniture,
broke windows, threw the contents Of
the pantry about the premises, filled
the air with shouts, and then refused
to go to their rooms at the command
of the police. 1t required three wagon
loads of policemen to quell the riot,
and it was found necessary to carry
h majority of the girls to their
room by main strength and leave a
policeman On guard during the night
at the door of each room occupied by
the girls.
The outbreak was the result of a
meeting held by the girls in the after
noon. when it was decided to show by
breaking the furniture resentment for
the Partially shown by the manage
ment. as claimed by the girls, for Ma
mic Davis, who was allowed to go TO
her home. Mamie Davis. the girls
claim, was the ringleadar among
them, and when she was allowed to go
home the others decided to take adj
vantage Of the presence Of the MEM
bers of the board of management to
show their resentment for the alleged
Partially.

A MEAN SWINDLER.
John COnnOrs Gets Ninety Days for

st. Paul, March 30.-One OF the
most peculiar methods Of swindling
was mad" known to-day in the munic-
ipaI court. John Connors was brought
in. charged with taking % cents from
Henry HorwitZ, a little new sboy ten
years old. Henry was the prosecuting
witness, and he told Judge Orr in a
very lucid way how he'd been dun
up by de big guy" He said Connors
stopped him on the street last Wednes-
day and asked him If he wanted to
earn so cents. Henry readily an
swered that he did, and Connors then
asked him how much money he had.
Henry had % cents, and Connors told
him if he would deposit that with him
to ensure a faithful service he would
get 80 cents for delivering a letter to
a man who lived only about two
blocks away. Henry says he deposited
his % cents security and started out
with the letter. The person to whom
the note was addressed was supposed
to live on the second floor in one Of
the large buildings. and, though the
boy hunted through the entire build
ing, he was not able to find IN such
person. He went back to tell the
sender. and was surprised when he
story to some of the other newsboys,
and learned that many of them had
been Swindled i'm the same way. Con
nOrs was sent to the workhouse for
ninety days.

BASFORD RECOMMENDED.
Political sensation I'm South


Redfield, s. D., March 3O.-The very
latest sensation is the appearance be-
fore the full boarG of the Methodist
church here at his own request of
Orville s. BasfOrd, chairman of the
Republican state central committee
and political adviser of Defaulter
Taylor. BasfOrd reviewed his past
life, confessed his backslidings, and
begged TO be reiDstated to fellowship
that he might resume his former pas
tOral calling. BasfOrd has been a
political leader and schemer here for
some years. He was once a minister
in good standing, but went back into
the world. He is now in Missouri,
where he hopes to get into the con-
ference. His reconversiOn is the
sensation Of the day, because of his
past political associations. This ac-
ton of Basford is the fulfillment Of q
prophecy made by the late Judge
Howe, who declared some years ago
that william Walter Taylor would
eve settle with the state and Bias
ford would play his last card by going
back into the church and his
preaching. Both men have passed
into the political history Of Sphinx
county and South Dakota.

SCHOOL
OF the Manitoba Legislature

Is Postponed.
Winnipeg, Man. March 3O.-The
separate schools warfare is to con.
tinue for another two months at least,
as Premier Greenway has publicly
announced that the legislature VIII
be adjourned on Friday until the 9th
of May. Premier Greenway says the
remedial order is too important a
matter. involving as it does great
vital issues, to be dealt with pre-
cipitously by the house, and it is
therefore deemed wise TO take ample
time to become thoroughly acquainted
with the whole range of the subject.
The government has already opened
communication with certain eminent
constitutional lawyers and submitted
to them for their advice some of the
chief points affecting the jurisdiction
of the legislature regarding schools.
The opinions of these gentlemen will
doubtless have a bearing on the policy
to be adopted by the government be-
fore the house r~easSembles in May.
1t is thought by some local politicians
that the early dissolution of the Do
minion parliament may be one of the
possible results of the adjournment Of
the legislature.
