we stalk out of the shop, where we

This is no fancy portrait. We can see
it realized in good substantial flesh and
blood any day we like TO go into large

shyness, or downright boorishness, it

New Maui Ranch.

George Campbell left on the kinau
yesterday morning for the purpose OF
starting a ranch at Hikinui, on the
slopes of Haleakala, Maui. This place
belonged to the Kalakaua estate, and
one-half of the land, about 5000 acres,
was purchased not long ago by Mr..
Campbell. The land is fine and well
suited to the purpose for which 1t was
bought. Kawailoa Ranch, recently
owned by Mr.. Campbell, has been sold
to the o. R. & L. Co. Mr.. Campbell is
a hustler and will undoubtedly make
a success of his new venture.

There are prospects Of a sham bat

has asked if it is possible to have such
an event on that holiday, and the cap

the proposition. As the 28th falls on
Sunday this year, the drill, if held, will
be on Saturday or Monday. The lat

Cruiser Vesuviua Prevents Another
FilibusterinE Expedition.


JACKSONVILLE, Fla, April 4.-The
cruiser Vesuvius prevented a Cuban
expedition from leaving Fernandina
last night and captured the tug Alex
ander Jones, of Wilmington. N. c. The
cruiser left here suddenly yesterday
afternoon upon information furnished
by Spanish Vice Consul Potouas. that
an expedition would leave Fernandina
at II o'clock at night. The cruiser
went down the river and anchored off
Fernandina bar About II o'clock the
Alexander Jones, with only two lights
burning, was overhauled and an officer
from the Vesuvius was placed aboard
steamer was soon seen coming
from the South, having the same sig
nails displayed as those of the Jones.
The fashlight was used, the steamer
turned and started in another direction.
A signal from the Vesuvius brought
the steamer to a standstill, however.
and she was seen to be the Bermuda.
The Bermuda was outside the three
mile limit and under the British flag.
SO that the commander Of the Vesuvius
had no authority to detain her. The
plans of the Cubans were for Gen. San
guilty to leave this city with a party
of Cubans for Fernandina The small
tug was then to tow two lighters load
ed with arms and ammunition and the
men out to the bar, where they were to
be met by the tug Jones with coal and
provisions aboard, and everything was
to be transferred TO the Bermuda The
quick action of the Vesuvius prevented
their plans from being carried out.

AT THE HIGH BRIDGE.
Curious ThrOngs Watch the Water
Throughout the Day.


Despite the chilly and drizzling rain
the high bridge was filled with crowds
of people all day viewing the flood from
that point, and had the day been fair.
1t IS questionable if the bridge could
nave accommodated the crowds The
scene underneath the bridge is one OF
complete desolation and destruction,
many of the houses being toppIed over
on their sides and nearly all are covered
to their caves with the flood water
There is considerable danger Of many
OF them being carried away before
morning, as the current has broken i'm
just underneath the Omaha railroad
bridge and is now sweeping around be-
hind the Azotine plant, past the Nc
MILAN packing works, and may carry
many a little home down stream if 1t
is not planted on solid foundation
The railroad company was working
all day getting cars out of the way
and moving those on spur tracks 10
higher ground. The Mcmillan people
were also busy moving the last of their
effects from the factory and were load
ing freight cars that were brought
down on tracks that had to be filled in
before they could be brought back.
The Omaha railroad bridge looks as
though it We're in danger, as the water
has almost covered the guard piers, and
it will take but a slight rise in the
water to entirely submerge them. Men
in boats are on constant guard, but the
main danger seems to lie at the juno
ton of the bridge with the trestle be-
tween the river and Pickerel lake
where the piers are built on the ground
and the water has an opportunity Of
washing underneath. Another danger
would be in case of log jam which
would at present endanger the main
piers. While there has been practical
ly no current under the high bridge
UP to date, 1t could be seen by the float
ing debris that the current had broken
in and there Is hardly doubt that
some Of the smaller houses will 90 be-

ORTONVILLE DEPOT, Mimi, April
4-This is the fourth day that Orton-
Vile has been completely cut off from
communication with the outside world
in every direction. A train can't go
twenty miles from this city in any
direction. Lac qui Parle lake, the Min
nesOta river, Big Stone lake and Lake
Traverse form one vast sea of 100 miles
in length. At this point the lake and
river are merged into one, and rising
rapidly at the rate of half an inch an
hour, the result of a northwest wind
which is driving the ice, which is yet
solid compact mass, out of Big Stone
lake into the Overfiowed bottoms of
the Minnesota river, where it is likely
to do great damage. Bridges are gone
in many places and boats are in de-
mand In the vicinity of the depot and
railroad yards, fish are being speared
in large quantities. No mail has been
received since last n ednesday and with
no immediate prospects for the future.
Rain has been falling steadily for a
week, making country roads impass-
able and keeping farmers off their
fields. The prospect is not encourag-

event of hostilities the aggressors will
