sibly one cause of the disturbance is

CAPE TOWN, March 27.-Dispatches
received from Buluwayo, Matabeleland,
indicate that the uprising Is very seri-

day merely outlined revolt of a few
natives, the massacre of some white
settlers, including Comissary Bantley,
and the dispatch of small force of
volunteers to the scene of the disturb

that the disturbance is widespread, and
becoming hourly more alarming. An
extensive uprising of thernatiNes, it is
understood, has taken plaee0aand the
revolt may spread to other parts of
South Africa. The settlers in Mata-
beleland are flocking into the towns,
which are being placed in condition for

Prominent among the New England
men whose brains and energy have
helped to make the Western states rich
and powerful Is General David T.
Beals, president Of the Union national
bank of Kansas City. Successful in his
many enterprises, he lives today in a
fine mansion at the corner Of Independ-
ence and Wabash aves.
The work and responsibility incum-
bent on the president of so important
banking institution as the Union ma
tional would endanger the sturdiest
health. Gen. Beals clearheadedn
and good sense were as manifest in
the choice of a remedy as in his bust
ness enterprises. He strengthened his
tired nervous system by the use of
Paine's celery compound. It's invigor-
ating, health-giVing effects justified his
expectations, and showed in his own
case the remarkable power Of this
much-dtscussed remedy for thoroughly
restoring and strengthening the run
down" system.
II found Paine's celery compound an
agreeable tonic and soothing to the
nerves." says General Beals.
These are the concise words of COM
mendation characteristic of the con-
servative business man, and the inf1u-
entail banker, who has learned to
weigh we'll his words.

invigorator at this spring season has

that stands unrivalled as the medicine

1t is fact much commented upon

stockholders of the Northwestern Guaranty
Loan company. The action was brought to
enforce the liability Of the four hundred and
odd stockholders Of the bankrupt organiza-

CIVIL BILL DELAYED.
Two Defeats for 1t I'm the House
During the Day.

WASHINGTON, March 27-The appropria-
tions committee attempted to take up the
sundry civil bill today, but the members who
were interested in bills on the private calen-
dar defeated them by a vote of 142 to r. The
members OF the appropriations committee do
not view their defeat as the result of opposi-
ton to the appropriation bill. Members from
the North, who are interested in pension legis-
lation, and those from the South, who are
interested in war claims effected a sort of
combination, and the appropriations committee
was defeated. The victory, however, was
completely barren, so far as the Southern
men were concerned, as, after the house went
into committee, the Republicans forced a mo-
ton to pass over all claims on the calendar.
The Southern men reta!iated by filibustering
against the pension bills, so that the net re-
suit today was less than half dozen bills
passed. 1t developed during the day that a
lively fight would be preclpitated Monday
when the sundry civil bill Is called up, on ac-
count of the fact that the bill carries appro-
prfations for continuing contracts on river and
harbor work and public buildings for only
eight months OF the next fiscal year. The ap-
preparations committee suffered another re-
verse just before the house took a recess to-
night 1t was Mr. Cannons intention to force
the house to sit tomorrow and proceed with
the sundry civil bill, but the members were
overwhelmingly in favor of taking holiday.
and by big majority voted to adjourn until
Monday. This evening the house held a ses-
sion devoted to private pension bills.

C0NFEREES MAKE PROGRESS.
Looks Hopeful for Compromise In
Manitoba School Trouble.

Special to the Globe
WINNIPEG, Man., March 27.-The federal
and provincial commissioners had a two hours
conference today, and made some progress in
negotiations for a compromise of the Manitoba
school difficulty. 1t was determined to ex-
clude stenographers and keep no record of
proceedings, except the final report. 1t is un-
derstood most Of the time of the conference
was taken up in good -natured controversy
over which side should make the initiatory
proposals, during which all present evinced
desire to be frank and conciliatory. Before
adjournment made at noon, 1t was suggested
that each side should submit rough draft of
proposals when they met again at o'clock.
1t appears this was done for the second con-
ference lasted only ten minutes, the surmise
being that the Manitoba representatives de-
sired to consult with their colleagues on the
proposals made by the federal commissioners,
while the latter will probably intimate to
representatives of the minority the nature of
the concessions which Manitoba Is willing to
grant. The text of these proposals 1t is i'm
possible to learn, but there is an impression
that they are not so divergent as was expect
ed. When the commissioners meet tomorrow,
therefore, they may find their task much
easier than was anticipated The mo sur
render element of the community got up
demonstration this evening, with the evident
purpose of intifnidating the Manitoba repre-
sentatives, built was lamentable izZle.

ion in One Guaranty Loan
Case.

A literary and musical programme
was given last evening at the Central
high school, participated in by the
four high schools Of the city, which
proved delightful entertainment.
Despite the inclemency Of the weather,
nearly 800 students were out, and from
the volume of yelling which greeted
the speakers from the different por-
tions of the city, it would seem that
the four high schools were about equal
ly represented The entertainment had
been announced as a contest between
the schools, but no judges were ap-
pointed and no formal decision was
rendered. Each school was thus left
to feel that it's own representatives
were entitled to the highest credit.
There were two speakers from each
school, a boy and a girl. DIR. Charles
M. Jordan presided.
The entertainment as whole was in
teresting throughout and varied enough
to hold the attention of the audience
The parts had all been carefully COM
mitted so that there was no break
in any part of the programme. Some
of the speakers showed considerable
Evolutionary power.
AS DR.. Jordan called the speakers to
seats upon the platform, there arose
a yelling, prolonged and loud, the cries
Of all the schools combined. Any one
would have been sufficiently unintelli-
gible and blood-curdling. Music by
the mandolin and guitar club of the
Central high opened the programme
This club comprises an octette of play
ers, and is credit to the school. It
was heartily encored.
Henry Kost, Of the South side high,
was the first speaker of the evening.
Hannibal Crossing the Alps" was his
subject.
An essay by Marie McReavey, from
the East side high school, was the next
number. Jessie Robertson, Of Central
er and Poet" "a Legend Of Minneap-
oils" an Indian story, was the sub
ject of a recitation by Nellie Purcell,
Of the North side high. Allen Keyes,
representing the East side high, gave
an extract from speech on the Cen
ternial." Better Not to Know" was
the subject Of an ingenious composition
by Edith Patch, Of the South side. A
piano solo by Miss Lottie Thompson, of
the South side high, was followed by
defamation, 1.-THE Black Horse and
It's Rider" by Joseph Stanfeld Of the
South side high. Public Opinion" by
Roy Musser, Of the Central high, was
we'll written Grafton. A chorus Of
twenty-five voices Of young people from
the North side high school, directed by
Prof. McFadden, was the closing num-
Der Of the programme. Hail to the
Land of the Good and the True was
the first piece sung, for which an sH?:..
core was required. The chorus showed
good training.

ticipated; the weather had scared nearly every
one not forced to be present from leaving
home. At first 1t was decided not to call to
order ct all, but the carriages had been or
dered for 10 o'clock, and the two hours were
perforce spent as best they could be. Still,
with the entire informality, the evening was
pleasantly and proftably spent. An excellent
musical programme had been provided, and
this was highly enjoyed

matters for the Minneapolis delegation to the

Nothing definite was done, the gentlemen
simply looking over the terminal facilities,
with the object of discovering which was the
most convenient depot and which had the best
side tracks, for the local delegation will want
to live in the train, or, at least, sleep there,
and thus be assured of roof over their heads

In the absence of Berrier's attorney no further

by the court to go home and appear this
