For assessor two candidates were in

nominated by vote of 43 to 16.

taken for treasurer. Bob Boone, of
Caldwell, and s. A. Pattison, of EN-
NETT, both had hankering after the
county's money. Balloting had been
open, but as the Caldwell delegation
had been playing fox with both candi-
dates, it was necessary that the voting
be by ballot. The first ballot was a tie,
sixty votes being cast, but the second
ballot revealed the fact that votes
could be made in minute, the ballot
resulting: For Boone 80, Pattison 30.
The leader of the Caldwell delegation
on the first ballot voted one proxy, but
on the second went deeper into his
pocket and found two more, which he
caplunked for the CaldWellite. But
the "most unkindest cut of all" was

operation performed in the hospital of the
State Prison this afternoon ends most
interesting surgical and pathological his
tory. Prison Hospital Surgeon Tharp re-
moved from the body of James Morris, a
Federal prisoner, serving term for coun-
terfeiting, needle which was swallowed
by the patient when he was a boy II years
old. AS he is now So years of age the
needle has been in the body forty-two
years.
In that time it has Travelled undoubtedly
through nearly every part of the body be-
low the waist. He has made several ap-
plications to have the needle removed
since he has been in the prison. but it
could not be located with sufficient ac-
uracy. Not long ago it was in his right
knee and he claimed he could feel the
point of it. He suffered great pain from
it all the time. To-day he felt the point OF
the needle projecting from his breast just
below the heart. 1t was an easy matter to
remove it. 1t was the intention of the
prison physicians to use the cathode ray
in searching for the needle if it had not
been found so soon.

this afternoon, and supposing he had sue
ceeded, killed himself.

own head repeatedly, but it would not go

BERLIN, GERMANY, March 29.-The
story associated with the duel fought last
Thursday between Lieutenant Won KetteIs-
hodt, an officer attached to the imperial
yacht Hohenzollern, and Herr Zenker,
prominent Berlin lawyer and anti-Semite
leader, in which the latter was killed, is
of absorbing interest in social circles,
where the affair is being discussed in
detail. Lieutenant Won Kettelshodt OBJ
taiped permission to remain in Germany
when the Hohenzollern started for Genoa,
and it was known among his friends that
his remaining behind was for the purpose
of fighting the duel. Herr Zenker was
lawyer of large practice and very wealthy.
He married a charming woman, by whom
he had two children.
In the summer of 1894 Frau Zenker met
Lieutenant Won Kettelshodt at Laboe,
seaside resort near Kiel. and their ensuing
unconcealed friendship aroused Herr Zen
ker's jealousy to so great an extent that
his wife left him III August last and went
to Detmold, taking her two children with
her. Herr Zenker then set to work to find
proofs of her undue intimacy with Lieu
tenant Won Kettelshodt. As Zenker was
lieutenant in the Landwehr he was en-
titled to demand duel.
The challenge was accepted by Won Ket-
telshodt, who, according to his right, chose
the weapons and the terms of their use.
The challenged officer named pistols, both
principals to fire until one should be dis
abled.
Several naval officers accompanied Won
Kettelshodt from Kiel to Potsdam, near
which place the duel was fought Herr
Zenker wore the uniform of lieutenant
in the Landwehr, and his brother, a
physician, watched the fight. Shots were
exchanged four times, Won Kettelshodt's
fourth shot piercing Zenker's heart. Won
Kettleshodt Immediately surrendered him.
self to superior officer and will stand
trial.
The episode has greatly touched public
feeling, there being, even in army and
navy circles. feeling OF sorrow at Zenk-
ers late, and the affair will undoubtedly
lead to a widespread agitation against
dueling, too strong for the devotees of the
code to withstand.

TtCo Women Killed and Several Injured
at CIeretdnd, Ohio.
CLEVELAND, ONO, March ga ter
rifle windstorm, lasting only two minutes,
sprung up about 2 o'clock Sunday morn
ing and created considerable havoc during
its brief existence.
A few days ago fire broke out in the six
story Kimb block. on Cedar avenue,
leaving the walls in tottering condition.
The storm blew the walls down upon the
dwelling of H. A. Vaughn, 745 Cedar ave-
nue., and crushed in the roof, instantly
killing Mrs Sarah Bradford and Miss
Emma Dietrich, who were in bed asleep.
Mrs. Bradford was asleep in an upstairs
room over the kitchen, on the side next to
the falling wall. The debris crushed upon
her and carried the woman and bed down
through the heavy tim bers of the floor to
the kitchen below. Five other people
sleeping in the house were injured.
Tonight at O'Clock the people in the
vicinity of the Kimball block ruins were
thrown into panic by the fall of another
section of the fire-blackened walls. After
hurried but complete investigation it
was ascertained that no other buildings
had been damaged nor further personal
injuries sustained. AT this hour the front
wall, six stories high is standing without
any support whatever, and brisk and in
creasing wind is coming straight against
it from the lake. Should it fall outward
the damage to other buildings will be
great; but people have been warned, and
there should be no one hurt by its fall.

SUCCUMDED TO FRIGHT.
Four Patients in a Burning Paris.

Sappers Mistake Drugs for Schnapps.
Four Dead, Others Suffering
Intensely.

PARIS, FRANCE, March 29.-The Gothic
Church of st. Sauveur, on the boulevard
de Marechal Valiant, at Lille, was de-
stroyed bp fire this morning. The flames
spread to the hospital adjoining the
church. and there was great excitement
when it was seen that the hospital would
be burned. The scenes among the pa
tients were terrible. Those who were con-
valescent were hurriedlv directed to leave
the building, and the hospital attendants
and others devoted themselves to remov-
ing those who were not able to help them
selves.
The cries of the sick were heartrend-
ing. -Four of the patients, who were
extremely weak, succumbed to fright and
died before they could be taken out. Many
of the sick were received In the convent of
the Little Sisters of the Poor, which is
situated but a short distance from the
scene of the fire.
Ten sappers, who had been ordered to
save the medicines in the hospital, came
across what they thought was a quantity
of schnapps. They each took drink, and
were almost instantly seized with symp-
toms OF poisoning.
Physicians at once attended them, but
despite all efforts four of the sappers died
and the others are still suffering agonizing
pain.
1t was not until. Z O'Clock this evening
that the fire was mastered. 1t was caused
by the neglect of some plum bers who had
been employed in the lower part of the
church, and who had either left burning
brazier or dropped piece of ignited char
coal.

Repeated Attempts to End the
Lives of Four Adopted
Children.
WARNED THAT THEY WILL DIE
Threatening Notes Left by the Un.
known Enemy-Dwelling in
Fear of Death.

PORTLAND, Or, March %. = Mrs.
Hiram Smith and family of Coburg are
the innocent victims of an unknown per-
sons hatred and live in daily fear of
death. Repeated attempts have been
made to poison the woman and her chill
dren, and of late the would-be poisoner
has grown bold in his attempts. 1t is be-
lieved he is crazy or has a mania for MUIR
der.
This person visited the Smith home last
Thursday and left some kind OF powder on
the top of the jars of milk. Mrs. Smith
does not know what the powder was but
believes it was the kind of poison used to
destroy rats and squirrels. On this visit
the poisoner left two notes OF threatening
character. On the afternoon of the next
day he again visited the premises and put
another kind of powder on the cream in
the pantry. This substance was of whit
concentrated lye. On this visit another
notice was left, as follows:
The ones we want to kill is Hiram Smith,
L. Smith, Mary Smith, Clara Smith. / am
coming again. This is done by one you will
never know. God is building the fire for you
now, d you.
On the days that this note and the poison
were left, Mrs. Smith and her two little
girls were alone at the farm, the young
men-LeeJ and Hirap-beIng absent on
business. Judging from the tone of the
note it appears that the unknown desired
| to take the lives of the four orphan chill
dren who live with Mrs. Smith.
Yesterday the family prosecutor again
gained admittance to the premises unseen
by any one and scattered poison about the
we'll and in watering -troughs and in the
grain bin. Thwarted thus far in his efforts
to take the lives of the family, the mystic
rious individual now seems determined 10
poison the stock on the ranch.
The family lives in constant terror, not
knowing what minute its property NAV
be destroyed or the lives of it's mem bers
taken bv the unseen enemy. The case
has been placed in the hands of officers.
Mrs. Smith is the widow of the late
Hiram Smith, man who was quite
wealthy and prominent in social and
political life. He owned large tracts of
land below Coburg and at one time was
candidate for Congress. He has been
dead for number of years. Mrs Smith
is now 73 years old, and lives on farm
about four miles below Coburg She has
no children of her own, but adopted four
children who were orphaned by the death
of another adopted son. The first attempt
to poison Mrs. Smith was made about ten
years ago.

held here to-day, it was decided to take no
part in the approaching election of mem
bers OF the Chamber of Deputies, but to

PARIS, FRANCE, March 29.-It is ru-
mored this evening that the reserve squad
ron at Toulon, Brest, POrient and Cher
bourg have been ordered to hold them
selves in readiness TO be placed on a war
footing. 1t is also rumored that France,
under the coaching of Russia, Will con-
vene an international conference to settle
the question of the powers of the Egyptian
debt commission and the evacuation of
Egypt. 1t has been found impossible to
confirm either rumor, but it was semi-otfi-
cially announced this evening that the
active squadron at Toulon had received
orders for one of the cruisers to keep
steam up.
There has been no change in the politi-
cal situation here since yesterday. The
Temps, commenting upon the resignation
OF the Foreign Office portfolio by NJ.
Berthelot, says that if the recent foreign
policy was not q success. the change has
been insisted by Prime Minister Bourgeois,
who is an able parliamentarian but an in
experienced diplomat. Therefore, NJ.
Bourgeois in the Foreign Office will posi-
bly, be more dangerous than was NJ.
Berthelot. France must know who leads
and where she is led.
In the Chamber of Deputies NJ. Bruent
and De Lafosse, and in the Senate NJ.
Bardeaux, have notified Prime Minister
Bourgeois that they will tomorrow inter
peIlate the Government on the situation in
Egypt.
NJ. Poincaire, ex-Minster of Finance,
will also tomorrow question the Govern
ment in the Chamber of Deputies on the
resignation of NJ. Berthelot and on the for
eign and general policy of the Govern
ment. The debates Will be important and
the defeat of the Government is possible
The Figaro publishes an interview with
NJ. Berthelot, in which the ex-Foreign
Minister defends his actions while in the
Cabinet, especially in respect of Siam and
Madagascar. NJ. Bertheiot claims he held
the French flag as it should be held.
