To Keep Hor-e in Good Condition.
If you buy a horse and pay good
price for him, YOU must take care of
that horse or you will lose money Oh
him whc" YOU come to sell him. When
you buy horse. no matter what condi-
ton he is in, begin at once to give him
chopped feed. Cut a little hay as short
as YOU can. and put from two to four
oats chopped, middlings, or oats and rye
chopped make good feed. Moisten the
feed with water Just SO YOU can see no
dry meal. Do not make it too wet, or it
will be sloppy Give this to your horse
three times a day at regular hours. Give
him little long feed in the rack: he
does not need much long feed, and as
hay is scarce i'll this section you will save
it by feeding in this way, With a good
comb and brush clean your horse thor
oughly every morning. If you use him
and he becomes swcatcd or muddy, do
the same in the evening. Do not work
him too hard one day and let him stand
for two or three days after. Give him
time, and use him as you would wish
to be used. Do this, and when you
want to sell him you will have a fine
horse. and can get what you paid for him

IN A YEAR, FREE CUBA.
Big Talk of the Republics Alleged
Minister TO England.

TBy Gable to The Associated Press.
LONDON, Oct 15 1S97.-Colonel Jose
Zayas, who says he is accredited by the
Palma Cuban Junta of New York as
Minister Plenipotentiary to Great Britain
from the Cuban Republic, in an interview
is quoted as expressing the belief that the
war in Cuba will not last another year.
Spain, he adds, cannot finance the cam
paign, and should have accepted the in
surgents' offer of $3.50, 100000 under the
guarantee of the United States.
Colonel Zayas does not anticipate as
s;stanee from the United States, claiming
that all the Cubans desire is fair play and
the recognition of belligerent rights, SO
that they can secure the necessary sup
plies for their troops. In conclusion the
Cuban Minister Is quoted as saying:-
There is no truth whatever in the opirl-
ion expressed in England that the Cubans
desire annexation to the United States.
We are fighting for independence and do
not banker after annexation, which will
not be the outcome of the struggle. There
not the least likelihood of the Cubans
accepting autonomy. Independence or
death is our motto.

MORE BRITISH GOLD.
Heavy Veins of Gold Hidden by For
4a est i'm Fsichfpfcoton.


Bt8FFALO, N. Y, Oct. Is, 1S97.-A spe-
cialSto the Express" from Toronto,
says
Director Blue of the Ontario Bureau of
Mines returned this week from Michipic-
oton, whittier he went three weeks ago
to establish the government offices in
connection with the administration of the
new mining district.
Not having time to explore 1T himself,
Mr. Blue had to rely on what prospec-
tors said, and they all agreed that the
country is one of excellent possibilities.
The district is well veined,'' and the
quartz found in the leads is heavily min
eralized and free milling, and carries
gold visible the naked eye.
The district, however, is bad one to
get over and prospect. Mountain ridges
cross it at intervals, forming in places
almost perpendicular escarpments. These
ridges, though, sometimes make the work
easier for the proSpector, for leads are
often found right upon the face OF the
escarpmentS.
Besides being very rough, the district
is heavily wooded and the forest is made
the more impossible by the plethora of
fallen timber in all stages of decay. What
makes the leads harder to find even when
the prospector is right upon them is the
thick carpet of moss which covers them.
In spite of these difficulties a lot of
finds have been in the last five or six
weeks, and in the last few days the new
mining office has registered between 50
and 80 claims. In the same period, be-
sides the 95 miners licenses issued from
the head office in Toronto, about 100
have been taken out at Michipicoton.

1S97.-At Chelco, in Curry county. Ore
gon, a feud which had manifested itself
in small quarrels. for several months, has
broken out with fresh fury and two men
have narrowly escaped with their lives.
Chelco is near the boundary line of Del
Norte county. Something ike i've years
ago an attempt was made to boom the
town ana the Coolidges and Van Pelts,
residents of the town, disagreed over
property rights. The boom was fail

women and children, was struck by five
bullets, one of which passed through an

KOREA AN EMPIRE.
New Power Asserting Itself in
the East--Is Russia
Behind It2

WASHINGTON, Oct. Is, 1S97.-The
Korean Legation received an official ca
BILE today, stating:-
King proclaimed himself Emperor
from this date, October Is, 1897
The transition which Korea makes to-
day, from a kingdom to an empire, is
felt to have considerable significance in
Oriental affairs, although the cable to the
Legation gives no details of the change,
and the officials here are without any in
formation as to the causes leading up to
it. 1t is understood, however to be a
part of the progressive policy on which
Korea has embarked owing to Russian
intrigues and following the lead OF Japan
and China. The King is a member of
the progressive party and shares the wish
of that party to bring Korea up to mod
ern standards. The opposition element
is known as the Conservative Party and
is desirous of preserving the old tradi-
tions and governmental system of the
country. Mr. Sob, who recently died
here, was the leading figure of this pro-
gressive element while the Korean Min
lister is member of the Conservative
Party. The last step taken by the King,
IN pTOctalInlIlS nlInSelI emperor dllSr To-
day is regarded as final stroke of the
progressive and modern element.
The change also has another aspect.
China long has asserted a suzerainty
over Korea, and it was this claim that
brought on the China-Japanese war.
While the claim is dormant, yet China
never has relinquished what she has re-
garded as an hereditary sovereignty over
Korea. With this latter country as a
kingdom some apparent assent was given
to the claim of an imperial authority
in China but with Korea herself advance
ing to the rank of an empire she throws
off every evidence of dependence.
Russia has long been trying to gain
control in Korea owing to that country s
extensive coast line and valuable har-
in particular the acquisition of Korea S
Pacific Coast line has been regarded as
of great strategic Importance, as Rus
sia's present ports on the Pacific are
closed by ice during the winter, while
those of Korea are open the year
around.
The advances made by Russia and
Japan in Korea have led to much con-
nict between the two countries, the last
move being protest by Japan against
the assignment of Russian officers to
drill the Korean army. The new move
is regarded by many as made at the in
stance of Russia, which hopes, by de-
taching the Hermit Kingdom from Chi
nese and Japanese influences, to gain SUI
premacy more easily herself.

son managed his own canvass, and he
managed it well. All the election officers
were anti-machine men and worked right
with him. The machine people tried to
ring in lot of mugwumps.
Wilson blocked their game by having
the election officers put the following
question to each man before permitting
him to cast his ballot
did you vote straight Republican
ticket at the last three elections?'
The answer was given under oath. A
great many f1inched and not a few went
away without voting. No man was per-
mitted to vote unless he answered in the

2 DALLAS. Tex. Oct. Is, 1S97.-Effie Jones,
a negro, has been convicted of the murder
of Riley w. Stewart a prominent and
influential Democrat of East Texas and
the death penalty assessed. Stewart was
murdered on the night of the 18th of May

KILLED Stewart with a club and that he
had been hired to commit the crime by

broke into the Tyler jail and shot him to
death in his cell, sparing the black man
to be dealt with by the law. 1t was the

NEW YORK, Oct. Is, 1S97.-The trial of
Martin Thorn, jointly indicted with Mrs.
Augusta Mack for the alleged murder of
William Guldensuppe, was today post
poned until November 8, instead of next
Monday. Tlrorn's lawyers today APP
peared before Judge Smith in the Queens

ly learned that number of persons in

Gulden suppe alive in German after June
25 last. the day on which he is alleged to
have been murdered In the Woodside
house.
The witnesses now in Germany, the
affidavit continues, knew Guldensuppe
from his boyhood. and were familiar
with the marks on the body of Gulden-
suppe, and the lawyer for the defence
felt confident that he could satisfy the
Court that after these witnesses had
viewed the dismenlbered remains now in
the New York Morgue, that they were
not portions of the body of Guldensuppe.
Judge Smith, in granting the applica-
ton to postpone the trial, said he didn' t
believe the counsel for the defence would
resort to anything improper to. secure
a postponement.

PRIVATE HAMMoND's CASE.

WASHINGTON, D. c.. Oct. Is, 1881
Secretary Alger is giving much attention
to the case of Private Hammond, who, it
is alleged, was roughly treated at Fort
Sheridan recently. Gen. Miles had the re-
port in the case forwarded by Gen. Brooks
the Department Commander and spent
some time last night in going over the
papers This morning Secretary Alger
called for the opinion of General
Miles upon the propriety of court
martialling the officer, Captain Low
ering, and the two had a long
consultation. Neither would say any
thing as to the conclusion reached, but
Secretary Alger remarked that he pro-
posed to talk the matter over with the
President, so it is assumed that it formed
topic for discussion before the Cabinet
today.
