They object to Deportation.

NEW YORK, April lon Ellis Island
yesterday 25O men, mostly Italians, held
for deportation, made two desperate at
tempts to escape from their place of i'm
prisonment, and but for the courage and
alertness Of the few keepers and inspectors
who had them in charge riot and blood
shed might have resulted. During the ex-
citement savage blows were struck at the
officials, and more than one knife was
drawn in the crowd, but after lively fight
ing the little knot of breathless officers had
the crowd subdued,

WOODSTOCK, England, April l. This
pretty little town was in state of holiday
parade yesterday to give a hearty welcome
to the Duke of Marlborough and his bride,
formerly Miss Consuelo Vanderbilt, of
New York. The horses were taken from
their carriage, ropes were attached and
the tenants drew the young couple to the
palace, escorted by the yeomanry. On all
sides among the tenantry are heard ex-
pressions of good will for the young duch-
ess, and everything in the neighberhood
seems to look upon the arrival of the pair
as the dawning of good times for Blen-
helm

One of the shrewdest political observers
to-day is Joseph IL, Manley, and he predicts
that Mckinley will be defeated for the
Republican presidential nomination lie
bases this assertion upon the belief that the
present situation is precisely as it was
twenty years ago, when, three months before
the convention met at Cincinnati, it seemed
to be absolutely certain that the late James
G. Blaine would be nominated. 1t looks very
much like history will repeat itself. Never
theless, no candidate has yet received one
half of the 455 votes necessary TO choice.

ORIGIN OF NANSEN STORY.
Report That He Has Discovered the Pole
Proves Nero Conjecture.

At last the true origin of the story
about DR.. Nansen's discovery of the
north pole has been told. The story
came from Tomsk, through the mer-
chant Kuschnareff, who is the uncle of
Kandakoff, the originator of the news.
His statement is that his nephew did
nothing more than transmit the report.
1t appears that in the New Siberian
islands there have been three parties
in search of mammoth bones. One of
these parties returned some time ago
and said they had seen a ship in the
neighborhood of the islands with Eu-
ropeans on board. They did not at
tempt any communication with the ship,
nor did they even watch it. Kandakotf,
to whom the mammoth hunters brought
the news, thought it might relate to
Nansen, and wrote thus TO Irkootsk,
whence it was sent out all over the
world. In the Siberian islands there
still remain two parties of hunters who
will return in November, and who, per-
haps, may bring some details.

HANGED OVER EIGHTY.
George Maledon VIII Retire from Ills
Public Career.

George Maledon VIII Retire from Ills
Public Career.
George Maledon, champion hangman
of the world, with a record of IS execu-
tions to his credit, will retire from his
public career and live the rest of his life
on farm which he has purchased with
his savings, says Fort Smith (Ark.)
correspondent of the New York World.
Maledon has been the official hang
man of the United States court here for
20 years and he took intense pride in the
neatness with which he performed the
duties connected with his Office.
When an execution was to take place
Maledon always found out the exact
weight of the man. After that there
was no guesswork. By q rule known
only to himself he adapted the weights
to & nicely.
On the morning of the day of the hang
ing he would always rise early and, after
testing the gallows, proceed to put them
in perfect order. The ropes were
CREASED, the pulleys and trap adjusted
and oiled and the moose carefully adj
iusted and tried. 1t made no difference
whether one, two or ten men were to be
executed, the same careful preparation
was made in each case.
There was nothing hard-hearted in
the way the work was done. A fayorite
remark of his to a doomed man was:
"Oh, come on, now; it's nothing at all.
You won't feel it and I'll have it all over
in jiffy." He never failed to offer the
prisoner chew of tobacco just before
the clergyman began the customary
prayer.

Peculiar Case That Is Attracting Atten-

Peculiar Case That Is Attracting Atten-
ton at San Francisco.
A Japanese who has been asleep for
three weeks and was at last accounts
still asleep is attracting the attention
of medical men in and around San Fran
cisco. The man was arrested for ''sleep-
ing out" and taken TO the city prison in
San Francisco. He remained asleep
there for six days, taking no food in
that time, and was then sent to the hos
pital. He slept there during two weeks
and was still sleeping a week ago. The
doctors are able to arouse him sufficient
IL to administer food, but he never opens
his eyes and Immediately he ceases eat
ing he goes sound asleep again. All
kinds of treatment have been tried, but
unavailingly. The doctors managed to
get his eyes open enough one day for
him to see big knife brandished in his
face, but he took no notice of it. They
scratched his flesh and dripped warm
water on the scratch to make the Jap
think he was bleeding, but he needed it
not. He has gained ten pounds in weight
in two weeks and is quite healthy.

A RICH STRIKE.
Quartz Discovered in California That
Yields $4,000 to the Ton.

Yields $4,000 to the Ton.
Definite news has been received of
one of the richest mining strikes made
in California in years. In the old Raw
hide mines, near Sonora, in Tuloumne
county, a pocket of quartz has been
struck on the 900-foot level, which as
says $4,000 to the ton. The popularity
Of the find is that the gold is free in
slaty quartz, and there is only a trife
of sulphur mixed with it. The work.
ing will be cheap, and if the pocket
is extensive, as appears from the pres
emit prospecting, the owners will clean
up q large sum. The Rawhide's his
tory shows the vicissitudes of mining.
1t was opened in the sos, but ADAM
doned because the ore cost too much
to handle. Four years ago Capt. W. I.
Neville, AN old mining man, bought the
property for less than 100000. He
put in new machinery, and in less than
two years took out enough to pay for
the mine. Three years ago rich ore was
struck, and ever since the mine has
yielded s12 900 to $40, 900 monthly. Like
most of the paying mines in Califor-
MIA, the Rawhide is owned by four or
five men, and the stock is neither listed
nor for sale.

TELEPHONE WAR IN MICHIGAN.
Expiration of Bell Patents Results In
Half Rates for Subscribers.

Half Rates for Subscribers.
The Bell Telephone company is meet
ing with competition in Michigan which
will materially reduce its revenues and
necessitate a radical change in its policy,
even if itdoes not drive the old company
entirely from the field. During the life
of the Bell patents the company had a
monopoly of the business and governed
itself accordingly. The rates in Grand
Rapids were from S4s to $50 year for
business houses and from $40 to S4S a
year for residences, and at other places
the rates were substantially the same,
except in Detroit, where they were
about double. When the patents ex-
pired a slight reduction was made, but
not TO the extent expected or hoped for.
Now, however, the opposition has come,
and with it telephone rates are tum-
bling.
In Grand Rapids a new telephone ex-
change has been established and will
be in operation before the end of the
month. The new company gives rates
of $50 for residences and SOS to $50 for
business houses, and the old company
has just announced a reduction to SIS
and S24 per year, respectively, to take
immediate effect. These rates are Just
half of what has been charged, but the
new company has n list of 1900 sub
scribers to begin with and 300 prom
inent business men and capitalists are
among its incorporators and are direct
ly interested in its prosperity. The old
company has had between 1000 and g.
500 subscribers, and when the new COM
pany gets down TO business it's list will
be reduced to n third or quarter.

the three men with him.
Ahlwardt was picked up and thrown
into the street, falling face downward
INTO the gutter. He was struck on the
back of the head as he lay there and also
kicked. Word of the row had mean

police arrived just in time, as the crowd
was using Ahlwardt and his friends like
footballs.
AS the police hurried up Ahlwardt
drew a revolver and pointed it at the
crowd. The weapon was quickly
knocked from his hand by one of his as
sailants. The police then closed in upon
thecrowd, using their clubs freely. ALL

at FREDERICKSBURG, on the occasion of
the birthday of Prince Bismarck, had a
prolonged conversation with the cele-

who is one of Prince BismarCk's oldest
and most-trusted friends. Herr Len
bach showed the correspondent his
latest OIL painting of Prince Bismarck.
1t is a fine work, the eye having speak
ing expression that is marvellous. He
also exhibited the last portrait which he
painted from life of the old kaiser, Will
hem 1. The picture is now hanging in
the smoking-room at FREDERICKSBURG,
and is so placed that Prince Bismarck,
sitting in his easy chair, with his accus-
toned long-stemmed pipe, can obtain
the best possible view of the features OF
his old master. Prince Bismarck passed
much of his time daily in this room.
