Washington, April IA new resort
for consumptives has been discovered
in the Free Orange state, South At
RIGA United States Consul Agent
Lanfgraff, in a report to the depart
ment, talks of the beneficial results
experienced by persons who have tried
it and adds:
mo country on earth can rank with
the Orange Free state as health
resort. Mr.. Patterson has been all
over the world, and nowhere has
found any relief. I could give num-
bers of similar cases, and that SO
few people have come here is due to
the fact that the Orange Free state
is so little known and in most parts
of the world believed to be a desert,
inhabited by brutal natives and wild
beasts. Living is rather expensive,
and persons coming here can COM
mand from $50 to $50 per month. A
family of four or five. persons can live
nicely on $1,000 per year. Persons
whose lungs are far gone should
travel by stages from the sea ITO the
Orange Free state-that is such per-
sons should stay for a month at
Ceres, next at Beaufort West, until
they are prepared to stand the dry
climate. A direct journey to Bloem
fonteil would mean death to such per-
sons. The landing place is Cape
TOWN.

prejudiced against them and their
church on account of the departure by. a
certain section of the church from the
original doctrines of the church.. In
speaking today on this subject, Elder
Sheehy said:
1--WE are not well understood in many
places and people have a feeling against
us that proper information will certainly
remove. We believe that God is too good
to damn humanity, and we believe that
humanity is too good to be damned. Our
doctrines are in many respects not very
different from those of other churches.
We have somei points similar to the
Presbyterian cSurch and others similar
to other churches. We have a theology
plainly defined and our teachings are for
the betterment, of humanity and the
promotion of all good"

LONDON FINANCES.

London, April THE influx of gold
continues. The trade is expanding.
but not enough to cause an apprecia-
BILE advance in rates of money. The
stock market was rather quiet last
week, and the tendency was generally
easier, owing to the sales to realize
profits. Home railway securities were
quiet. Foreign securities were neg
lected. Spanish securities were freely
offered. The collapse of the London
derry gold mines had a bad effect on
Australian mining securities. but
failed to influence the South African
department ITO any great extent. In
the market for American securities.
the dealings were on a widening scale

ter of the vice-president of the Pull

made her debut on the professional
stage last evening at the Lyceum the

Cross" with the company of Wilson
Barrett.
81 can see nothing in connection
with this move of Miss Wickes which
should particularly interest the pub
lic." said Mr.. Barrett this afternoon.
1T came about solely through the in
strumentality of the late theatrical
manager. John W. Norton. who was
my friend, and who was killed in a
disastrous railroad wreck some weeks
ago. He had requested me to give
certain protoges of his trials. and Miss
Wickes was among the number.
81 had occasion thereupon to judge
of her talent and found her to possess
unmistakable ability as an actress,
and L am glad to name her with my
company. She has great talent. and
have no doubt as to her future bril-
liant success as an actress. AT pres

Washington, April Joaquin Ber-

state in the most emphatic manner

Omaha, April New York and Chi
cago bankers have refused to handle
the $2O0,0O0 warrants issued by Ne
braska until they are passed upon by
the supreme court. They request that
the attorney-general obtain a pro
forma recognition from the supreme
court, after which the bond-buyers will
likely accept them. As this is not
likely to be done, the only thing left
for the state to do will be TO cash them
out of the school funds and hold them
at per cent interest. Up to date not
one of these warrants has been sold.
President Mason estimates that it will
require about sixty days to close UP
the accounts of the bureau. He says

tribution. The re are twenty-five car
