Fine Band.

The band with the Kirkhart- Ryan's
circus gave concert at the head of
West Fourth street last evening
which was greatly enjoyed by several
hundred people. This band includes
about twenty men, and is not only
one of the best heard in Waterloo
but of the best seen with circns.
Nothing but high grade music is
played. The evening performance
of the circus drew large crowd and
was entirely satisfactorily, being
much better than many 5O-cent
shows. A feature that should alone
enlist the patronage of the public is
the strict honor of the management
IN not allowing fakirs or gamblers of
of any kind to follow IN the wake
of the circus. This integrity is bound

Washington, June 6.-The president
sent veto message to the house OF
representatives on the general deticien-
cy appropriation bill Saturday after
noon. He replies briefly to the crit.
cisms of his exercise of the veto power
and snys he has hurried the prepare
ton of the message in order that con-
gress may take action in the matter
without delay. The ground for the
veto is the provision made relating to
the payment of the French spoiation
claim.
In his message the president says in
part:
Apologize In Tone.
ut is difficult to understand why, under
the constitution. it should be necessary
to submit proposed legislation to executive
scrutiny and approval except to invoke the
exercise of executive Judgment, and in

1.-The unpleasant incidents which ac-
company the use of the veto power would
tempt it's avoidance if such a course did
not involve an abandonment of constitu-
tional duty and an assent to legislation for
which the executive is not willing to share
the responsibility.

prove an important appropriation bill so

estimate.
There is no estimate, and can be
none. as to the right of way, but be-
tween forty and fifty acres of land will
have to be cleared of wood and brush
to furnish q good view of the course
from the rails. I do not see my way
clear to recommend the expenditure of
this sum by our company, especially as
there can be no guarantee of it's use
from one year to another. The Spring
field experiencesin college football is an
evidence of this"
This reply has been sent to the re-
gatta committee in New York. It is
understood to take away all Spring

Ceai Miners in Distress.

Denver. March 13.-Reports from the
coal mines in northern Colorado dis
close a terrible state of affairs as the
direct result of the war that has been
waged by the railroad hauling the out
put of the Southern mines. The state
ment is made that the late employees of
one company are without the actual
necessaries of life, as their credit has
been stopped and they have no way to
raise money. Their claims against the
company aggregate $4,000, but their
time checks are worthless. The com
pany closed down some time ago, as,
owing to the competition, it could NOT
make the running expenses of its mines
and pay the heavy royalty that is Elk
acted by the owners of the land. The
town of Erie, where the worst destitu-
ton is reported. has population of
about 500. all of whom rely upon the
mines for their bread. OF this number
few have averaged more earnings than
S. to SIC a month since the beginning
OF winter.
