instances excellent. Schilling was funny

Renchcd the TranSXaaI state.

News from the uprising of the Uitland-
ers in the Transyaal country. Africa, is
being eagerly watched for by number of
people in this city. There are a number of
former Seattleites in the state where the
uprising took place and friends here be
lieve that some of them may be among
the invaders. The rich gold discoveries at
johannesburg attracted a number OF men
from this city TO that field and their APP
pearance there also introduced to the peO-
pie OF that section the famous Rainier
Beer, which has become known through
out the Pacific as the best and most
healthful beer made. The Seattle Brew
ing and Mailing Company have received
a number of inquiries from South Africa
regarding consignments Of Rainier Beer
and It IS very likely that the familiar la
bel of Rainier Beer viii soon be as well
known in South Africa as it is in China,

Yes" said he. They have been going on

They are all fine young fellows frcm
twenty-five to twenty eight years OF age,
well dressed and active. Many Of them

cases and take passage no further than
Key West. The junta at New York does
hot permit US to send out any mca from

ton to the agent at Key West, and he
takes them In charge.

MIR. FRANCIS NOMINATION.

pOned.

Senator Vest of Missouri has been con-
siderably annoyed over a report that he is
holding up the nomination Of Secretary
Francis until after the senatorial election
IN that state. Referring to the report, the
Senator said today: 1T is absurd. There is
rot a Palmer Or Mckinley democrat in
the Missouri legislature, and do not see
how Secretary Francis could be a factor in
the election of United States Senator
from my state Besides this, the regular
democrats. who supported BRYAN. have a
clear majority on joint ballot over all other
parties ard have no opposition in nv
own party. The nomination of Francis was
postponed for consideration until after the
recess, as Were the nominations of all the
Palmer or Mckinley democrats"
