Anent Sunday Closing.

Summerville, Colo, June 2S, 81.
E ditor Camera
The article in Saturdays Camera from
Eldora signed "a Miner" concerning
the 7 o'clock and Sunday closing in
Bo ulder, voices the sentiment of every
miner in our camp that have heard
speak on the subject.
If those merchants who are holding
out against the movement are doing SO
from the standpoint that they will get
the benefit of the miners evening trade
after the merchant who has closed his
store at7 o'clock in order to give his
clerks little recreation, they are la.
boring under an hallucination, for the
miners will remember the friend to the
employe and they have no use for the
employer who works his help IA hours
out of the "a. You who have joined thi:
movement stick to it, and do not be in
huenced by so small a minority for they
will lose and you gain in dollars and re-

Washington, March 11.-Mr. II. Clay

Mr.. Evans is well known to public
men throughout the country and long
has been recognized as a leader among
Southern Republicans. He represent
ed the Chattanooga district in Con-
gress for several years and in the Har-
rison administration was First Assist
ant Postmaster General. Later he ran
for Governor Of Tennessee on the Re
publican ticket and made a remarka-
bic run. The result was in doubt for
many weeks. and it was not until after
a warm fight before a board appointed
to review the election that il finally
was announced officially that Governor
Turnev. his Democratic opponent had
been reelected. He was considered for
some time not unlikely to be the
South's representative in Mr. Mckin-
,ev's cabinet. Mr.. Evans IS a business
man and of conceded executive ability.
He is a manufacturer and has a large
railroad supply repairing establishment

Latest AdviceS From Over the Pa
cifc---Small-POx in Japan--NO News

Preferred Death.

Vancouver, B. c., March 1.-THE
steamer Empress Of China has arrived
from the Orient. She brings the fol-
lowing advices:
Smallpox is not so prevalent in Hong
Kong as a few months ago, but in Japan
it is still ragings fercly, and the Hong
Kong board of health recommended
that the governor declare Hiogo and
Kobe infected ports.
There is no authentic information to
hand regarding the rebellion Of the
Philippines with the exception of a
telegram on February Il, that the gC"
ernor general had left Manila to per-
sOnally conduct operations against the
rebels at Cavite. Manila papers still
continue to publish reports of the So
called successes of the Spanish troops,
but the numbers of killed and wounded
on the rebel side as recorded in the
Spanish press since the beginning OF
the outbreak are either grossly exag-
gerated or the original strength of the
rebels is far greater than the Spanish
authorities are willing to admit. Sugar
growing districts are not seriously az
fected by the rebellion, and the hemp
district not at all.
Director Sheng has now obtained
control over the Chinese railways at
present in existence and those about to
be constructed in the northern half of
China.
The reason given by f. A. Satow, Her
Majestys minister at Toxic, for Mrs.
Carews reprieye, is that as the Jap
anese Emperor was granting remission
Of sentence TO native criminals on the
occasion of the death of the Empress
DOwager, il was fitting that Mrs. Carew
should be reprived and her sentence
cOmmuted to one of penal servitude for
life Il is rumOred that Mrs. Carew
wrote to the minister asking that the
law take its course as she preferred
death to Imprisonment for life.

AN ATLANTIC CITY FIRE.
The Seabright Hotel Damaged to the Ex-
tent OF $4,000

Atlantic City, n. J., March THE
Seabright Hotel, at Pacific and Rhode
Island avenues, was damaged by fire
yesterday TO the extent of $4,000. The
fire originated in the basement. and is
supposed to have been of incendiary
origin.
The fire was discovered by police
man.
Before the engines could respond to
an alarm that was turned in the flames
had burst out of the windows and
threatened to destroy the hotel. which
contains about 100 rooms Rapid work
by the chemical engines. together with
three steamers, soon got the flames un-
der control, and in an hour had them
eXtinguished.
The hotel had been but recently rails
ed, enlarged and refurnished at an eX-
pense Of $4,000. and was TO have re-
opened on Saturday next. Parts of the
house were drenched with water, and
the steam arising from the fire helped
to damage the furniture.
The work Of repairing the damage
will at once begin, and the house will
likely be in readiness to receive guests
in two or three weeks. Little insurance
was carried on the property.

snecinl 10 the Reglster.

Special to the Register.
Washington, D. c., March 11.-There
is excellent authority for the statement
that if Mr.. n. B. Scott, of Wheeling, is
set on being commissioner Of internal
revenue he will have to wait for the ap-
pointment a year or more.
II appears the Illinois Republicans
are opposed to the removal of Mr.. For
man. the present incumbent, who sue
ceeded Commissioner Miller few
weeks ago.
They think Mr.. Foreman deserves con-
sideration from the administration be-
cause of his services to Mckinley IN
running Tor Governor Of Illinois on the
Gold Democratic ticket last fall. II IS
claimed Mckinley shares this view ana
will allow Forman TO remain as inter-
nal revenue commissioner for year or
more.
This will, it is thought. cause Mr.:
Scott to be given the office treasurer OF
the United States. which is quite as
honorable and important as that of rev.
enue commissioner. while its duties are
lighter.
