spanish Buying warships.

London, July 2s.-The Times has a
dispatch from Madrid, which says: It
is stated that the government has paid
the enormous price of e700,0 each,
for the two warships recently bought
at Genoa, while a contract has just
been given for two torpedo boat de-
stroyers. at EGO, 900, which was dearer
than the tender of first-olass English
firm, on the ground that quick delivery
would be secured. Nothing short of a
panic can explain such extravaganza.
Wichita, Kan, July 2S.-The week
just closed has witnessed the liveliest
grain trade in Southern and Central
Kansas that these sections have exper-
fenced in five years. just now the
bulk of the old corn from this section
is going to st. Louis and New Orleans,
but dealers from Northern, Eastern and
Southern points are all buying heavily.
The shipments, while enormous, do
not in any sense represent the business
done. as very large amount of corn
has been contracted for, but is held
awaiting cars. A great deal Of the
corn is in unroofed bins, on account Of
recent rains, 1t 10 too wet to shell,

Suicide in Athena of Judge Edward
Depeatt,

Suicide In Athena of Judge Edward
Depeatt,
Pendleton, Or, July 27.-Judge Ed
ward Depeatt was found dead in his
Office in Athena at 1 P. NJ. today,
having committed suicide. He was
missed at home Tuesday night. and his
family thought he had come to Pendle-
ton. They telephoned here Wednes-
day, and, learning nothing Of his
whereabouts, commenced search. To.
day L. D. Leavely and Deputy Marshal
Dhalson entered his Office through a
window, and found him lying on a
lounge. His arms were across his
chest, the right hand holding a re-
volver, the muzzle of which was in
his mouth, the bullet having passed
through the roof of the mouth and
lodged in the brain. The room was
quite dark, the curtains being drawn.
At the inquest it was found that the
cause Of his death was gunhsot wound
inflicted by his own hand on or about
the night Of July 81. He was known
to have threatened to commit suicide
several times, and had been drinking
heavily.
He was 80 years old. He leaves a
widow and three children. The de.
ceased had been six years in Athena,
hsving gone there from Southern Ore

ese CANS OF OPIUM.
A Three Thousand Dollar Catch in
Two Nights.

A Three Thousand Dollar Catch in
Two Nights.
Portland, Or, July 28.-The GUS
toms officials of this port have made a
clever capture of smuggled opium,
having seized $50 cans of the stuff,
valued at about $4,000. 1t is the most
important capture that has occurred
for many months and reflects great
credit on the officers who had the mat
ter in hand.
Ten days ago T. J. Black received
information from Vancouver, B. G.,
that lot of opium had been shipped
from there, presumably for Portland,
and strict watch has been maintained
about the railroad depots and in Chi
nese stores in the city. 1t was sup
posed that those handling the dope
would be strangers who would offer it
for sale at some of the stores in the
Chinese quarter. This led to two men
being suspicioned, both strangers, and
their movements were closely watched.
The suspicious proved correct, and 1t
was later learned that they had brought
the opium in small boat from some
point on the Columbia river. They
were arrested last night as they were
landing the stuff, and when taken to
the police station gave their names as
James Mcintosh and John Miller.

Chicago In Now Working for . Trans
Pacific Line.
Chicago, July 27.-The publication
Of the negotiations between President
Hill, Of the Great Northern, and Mr..
Masujima, of Toxic, for a steamship
line between Puget sound and Japan
has developed the fact that Chicago
men already have practically completed
arrangements for such a line Of steam
ers, which it Is expected, will give
them almost complete control Of the
business between the United States and
the Orient.
In the venture of the Chicago men,
it is understood the Atchison, Topeka
6 Santa Fe railroad has an interest and
the company is ready, if necessary, to
break its alliance with the Southern
Pacific and the Huntington interests
in order to carry out the new scheme.
The value of the trade with the Orient
is appreciated fully by all the trans
portation and commercial interests of
the country, and there is no fear that
there will not be traffic enough to make
the new line profitable. San Diego is
the present terminus Of the Santa Fe
road. and if it could carry freight to
the docks of trans-Pacific steamship
company there its tonnage would be
vastly increased.

ON WAR FOOTING.
Unusual Activity in the Navy De-
partment.

Unusual Activity in the Navy De-
Washington. July 24.-The purpose
Of the administration to be prepared for
war trouble, if it comes, is indicated by
the orders which have been issue by
the navy department, directing all
officers on waiting orders to report at
once for duty, and at the same time re-
voking all leaves Of absence.
This is an unusual proceeding, and
would not ordinarily be regarded as
necessary, except in case of positive war.
Such action is supposed to indicate that
every available ship will at once be
placed in commission and given full
complement of officers and men.
Several officers will also probably be
utilized in duty in the various gun and
ammunition works to hasten compile
tion and shipment Of naval stores and
munitions of war. Work of this char
acter will be materially expedited by
reason Of the fact that the appropria-
tions for the present fiscal year have all
become available for expenditures.
The process of enlistment will be
fastened, SO that the 1000 men author
lied by the last naval bill may have
the benefit of the midsummer evolu.
tions. Without them it would practio-
ally be an impossibility to properly
man the three or four ships now out Of
commisson.
There has for some time been de-
sire on the part of the naval authorities
to make the evolutions Of the various
fleets this year more exhaustive and
thorough than any of their predeces.
sors. For this reason extensive pre-
parations have been in progress, but it
had not been determined to put all the
ships into commission or to call in
those officers who were absent on leave
or waiting orders, but Rear-Admiral
Bunce, commanding the North Allan.
tic squadron, gave the enthusiasm a
new impetus in report which has
just reached the department. to the
effect that his squadron will begin its
summer maneuvers about the first OF
next month and continue them six
weeks or two months.

An Actress Salary.

Sarah Bernhardt's salary Is 81 800 q
week. Yvette Guilbert received under
her recent contract $1,000 week, and
Calve earns 81 200 for each Of her ap-
pearances. Olga Nethersole earns $3.50
a week. What with his salary and per-
centage of the receipts John Drew
makes in good times $500 a week. A
competent leading man or woman, like
Henry Miller or Herbert Kelcey, Viola
Allen or Isabel Irving, can be had for
5000 week. The only player that has
country, a salary equal to that Of
Bernhardt was Nine. Modjeska. Edwin
Booth, who knew nothing about the
value Of money, once engaged the
Polish actress at salary of 81 500 q
week. Mr.. Grau's contract with Gull
bert lasted only two weeks, after which
he returned to the cheap prices Of
Paris. Calves contract lasted FIVE
months, but during that. time she sings
only twice or three times week, after
which she returns to the moderate sal
aries of Europe. Melba receives ST.
500 night in this country, but in Paris
Is content with $500 a performance.
But Sarah Bernhardt's contract con-
tinues through summer and winter, and
every Saturday night she pockets ST.
500. Taking one thing with another,
the actress is better off than the sing
ers. Averaging the entire income of
each performance, we should say that
Calve earns $4,000 year, Guilbert
about $50, 900, while Bernhardt is sure
Of $4,000 annually for five years.
