An Ohio Congressman. Name Not Given
Discovered Eeating His Wife.
WAsHINGToN, Jan. 1S.-Early yester-
day morning the occupants of one of
the large hotels were startled by the
screams of the wife of an Ohio con-
gresham and, breaking into the room,
found the member of congress beating
his wife. With the assistance of a
couple of porters the statesman was
dragged into another room, thrown
upon bed and held until his anger
had passed away, and then left locked
in the room. 1t developed upon in
quiry that for the last two weeks,
while the constituents of this member
of congress fondly believed he was
saving the nation, he had been on
debauch, which ended in the wife

SYMPTOMS OF BUCK FEVER
MichiEan's Mans First Experience
with Deer.


Marquette citizen tells the Mar
quette Mining Journal his experience
with buck fever" He had never tried
TO shoot a deer, and hunting them was
new TO him. After spending few hours
tramping through the woods, feeling
tired, he sat dow OF log TO rest for
short time. Now, like most hunters, he
had taken his pipe and tobacco along.
Filling the pipe, he smoked for time
without interruption, when, happening
to turn his head a little to one side, he
saw a large buck coming straight
toward him. As luck would have ii,
he had sat down to smoke near deer
trail.
The deer kept getting nearer and
nearer. until he got nearly opposite the
place where the hunter sat concealed.
While the hunter was watching the APP
proach of the deer he forgot that he had
a gun, and that the deer was his meat.
He began TO tremble and shake in every
limb and joint, and it was q difficult
matter for him to restrain a yell Of
fright. He watched and trembled until
the deer was passing his hiding place
and into the thicket beyond. Then. feel
ing for his pipe, he discovered that it
lay on the ground near his feet. BY
the time he had picked it up the deer
was out of range, and then he discov-
cred that in his excitement he had bit
ten the mouthpiece of his pipe in two.
He was greatly relieved TO see the deer
move on, as it seemed to him that he was
the game and the deer the hunter.

The Peaceful Blockade of Cuba Will Be
Modified.
Washington, May 16-President Nc
Kinley has abandoned his peaceful
blockade idea, and will now conduct a
war against the coast Notifications of
Cuba. He has thought from the fir
that the Cuban coast was not defended
and troops could easily be landed
at any point without any op.
position. The Cardenas engagem. mt re-
sulting in the loss of several lives has
changed his mind. Hereafter whcn the
ships of the squadron approach the coast
it will be with business intent.
Orders have been issued to the COM
manders of the blockading squadron
that will give them an opportunity to
turn the ships loose upon all the fort'fi-
cations that offer resistance. Every
port will be attacked and the attack will
be continued until the batteries are ST.
!enced and the Notifications reduc ID to
ruins.

Philharmonic Club Conce rt.

The state preparatory school concert
has been an event increasing in interest
each year. The orchestra now numbers
fourteen and the chorus of picked voices
about fifty. A new name has been given
to the organization. 1t is now the Phil
harmonic club and it is intended to make
it one of the strongest elements in the
musical life of Boulder.
The concert to be given on the com.
ing Thursday night at the preparatory
school will be particularly interesting as
the Unfinished Symphony" of Schubert
will be given. Now, it is really re-
markable thing that this orchestra is able
to render such composition as that
symphony. No orchestra of similar size
in the state, it is safe to say, would un
dertake it. 1t has meant very hard work
since October, but it is to be well done.
There are to be two other numbers by
the orchestra, the overture to Der
Freischutz, and the Leonore March from
Raff's symphony.
The chorus will sing twice, and there
is to be piano solo by Miss Brown, who
will be heard for the first time in Boul.
der. Miss Brown is graduate of the
Leipsic conservatory and has had fine
course of instruction in this country also.
The full program will be in the Wednes-
day paper and the town should give a
good audience to such an entertainment.
The proceeds of the concert are to 60
toward the payment of the piano iii the
preparatory school.

Cussed the second series of written argu-

the purpose Of prevailing upon the
American commissioners to assume the
Cuban debt. No definite conclusion
was reached and the commissioners ad-
journed for the day. 1t is probable that
the Cuban question will be disposed Of
inside Of A week. Thus far there have
been Joint sessions. four Of which
have been devoted to the discussion Of
the first article Of the protocol. In thi,
manner two weeks have PASSED and 40
results have been reached. The Amer
iCan commissioners have listened to all
the arguments of the Spaniards. but
they have not changed the position
which they first assumed in regard to
the Cuban debt.

s2vs: The dominant feature OF the
business situation is unquestionably the
active foreign demand for wheat. wheat
-four and. indeed. all our cereal prod

account during the past 10 days seems
worthy OF rank with the best recorded
i'll any corresponding period. General
distributive trade. particularly at the
North. appears to have suffered from bad
weather conditions this week which
have interfered with regular business
and deliveries. but on the other hand
has induced considerable buying OF
boots and shoes. rubber goods anL
heavy clothing at many markets. The
situation at the South is rather more
favorable than for som time past.
