Two Boats Away, but War ship
Rode the Waves Well.
SEATTLE, Wash, April 3.-The
battle-ship Oregon arrived at the Port
Orchard Naval Station from Mare ISL
and this afternoon at $3.50 o'clock. She
will go on the dock next Tuesday. The
test is looked forward to with a great
deal of interest, as it will give con-
elusive test of the strength of the
structure.
The Oregon left San Francisco last
Tuesday. Wednesday morning a heavy
gale was encountered. Two lifeboats.
IS feet above the water line, were car
ried away The waves dashed over the
pilot house, 40 feet above the water
line. The vessel was hove to and rode
out the storm like a cork. Thursday
she stood away on her course, making
the run to Port Townsend at a 12-knot
clip.
After leaving the dock the Oregon is
expected to visit the various ports on
the Sound.

54th annual boat race between crews
representing the Universities of Ok

81 out of the 81 races rowed, and has
been the winner eight years in sue

boating, the sky was overcast, the wind
was gusty, some rain fell just before
the start, and the atmosphere was raw
and cold. The betting was to 1 on

DURRANT WILL HANG.
Day Of His Execution to be Han
ded by Judge Murphy.

Day of Ills Execution to be Han
ded by Judge Murphy.
SAN FRANCISCO, Cal, April g.
Judge Bahrs made an order yesterday
fixing next Saturday morning at 10
o'clock as the time when he will fix
a new date for the hanging of Theo-
dore Durrant. This order is in pursu-
ance of the recent decision Of the Su-
preme Court affirming the conviction
of Durrant for the murder of Blanche
Lamont and the subsequent judgment
of Judge Murphy imposing sentence OF
death.
The attorneys for Durrant are still
reticent as to what course they will
pursue TO secure their client further
respite. 1t is generally understood,
however, that strong effort will be
made to carry the case into the Fed
eral Court Unless there is some in
reference before Saturday SherIn
Whelan will transfer Durrant to San
Quentin as soon as Judge Bahrs fixes
the date of execution.

knowledge of the cause for recalling
the vessel from Honolulu before the
expected time. but are OF the opinion
that the Thetis. now engaged in sur
veying in the Gulf of California, is TO
be sold and that the Alert is to be sent
10 relieve the old Thetis. Though there
has been a great deal OF talk about
putting the Alert out of commission.
none of the men on board her will
listen TO any such story. and they say
that the vessel is as good as ever. The
fact that new officers have fbeen de-
tailed 10 the Alert to succeed some
whose terms have expired is considered
as an indication that she will be kept
in active service. Lieutenants Baker,
Pond and Stafford and DR.. Spratling
will be relieved. Lieutenant HOdgson
will succeed Lieutenant Baker, and
DR.. Moore has already gone aboard the
Alert 10 take the place of DR.. Sprat-
Ting. The four officers will go East
on leave for the present.
II is believed that the crew Of the
Thetis will be transferred TO the Con-
cord as soon as the survey boat re-
turns to this city. The Alert will prob
ably go to Mare Island today. Her
bottom is very foul and she will go on
the dry dock before going south.

FLOODS INCREASE.

Mississippi River Rises Higher
and Higher.
MEMPHIS, Tenn, April 6.-The fea-
ture of the flood condition in the Mis-
sissippi delta today is the gradual
spread of water over an area that hith-
erto has never been overlooked. The
upper crevasse in Tunica county is
1000 feet wide, and so great is the out
pour that water from below the break
is being drawn up TO and hurled out
over the fertile valley through the Gre
vase. All of the country east to the
main line of the YaZoO and Mississippi
Valley Railroad is flooded, and in many
places the water has gone over the
tracks.
The fall in the main channel at Hell
ena, Greenville, Vicksburg and Ar
kansas City is due TO the filling up of
the delta and the lower White River
country The supreme question is the
duration of the flood. If the lower lev
ees along Louisiana and Southeastern
Arkansas hold, which it is believed
they cannot do, the emptying of the
delta and St. Francis basin will be
slow

ARBITRATION TREATY PLANS.

The Matter TO he Dropped for Several
Days.
WASHINGTON, April 3.-The An
glo-American arbitration treaty will
be temporarily side-tracked in the Sen
ate next week. This will be done for
several reasons. The principal one
given by Senator Davis, who is in
charge of the treaty, is that a number
of Senator who have remained in the
city in constant attendance upon the
executive sessions in the belief that a
vote would be reached, are anxious to
get away for a few days.
Another reason is found in the diff
Guilty of arranging pairs for absent
Senators who oppose ratification of the
treaty in any form.

was Theodore Todd Munroe of Union, s. c.,
a doctor with a large practice. and rich.
The wounds that cause his death were in
fiicted by hts own hard. The solitary spec-
tator was DR.. Jerome G. Going.
The two came to Atlanta Sunday to con-
suit physicians regarding DIR. Munroe who
became a slave to morphine. They sat talk
i3S in their hotel room until late at night.
One of the physicians suggested that II
ever a physician intended to commit sui
eide he could make the performance CO
lasting vefue to the profession by doing IL
IN The presence of fellow practitioners.
DIR. Munroe retired. but had not been in
bed a moment when he called DIR. Going
to rim. The latter saw the bed clothing
Stained with blood and pulling off the
sheets. found that DIR. Munroe had severed
arteries in different parts of hts body with
a keen. dyed pocket knife.
The injured man looked at his friend with
a smile and said: Now take notes" Then
he closed his eyes AID passed gradually
away into uncoEsciousness.
DIR. Goings worked with all his strength
TIC save the life of his friend but failed.
DR. Munroe died twenty minutes after he
had used the knife.
