niture in the "cage" but the city has en-
deavored to do the best possible, for the
present. There is no other place in
which to place alleged violators of the
law, and for the present the klckers can
expect no change, and the thoughtless
WHO fill up on red lemonade, or paint
the city various colors and happen to
get caught at it, must expect to spend a
few hours in our free lodging house,
and the kickers will be unable to pre-
vent it,
The second article of ''scrape" which
claimed the attention of the large mouth
ed individuals whose business is kick
ing, was the reported rumor that an in
junction was to be brought against the
city to restrain the erection of the new
city hall building. While the club did
not know the exact grounds upon which
the injunction was to be brought, yet
were mad just because they thought it
was popular to be mad if any one at
tempted to stop the erection OF the city
building. One hurley fellow who says
he is not afraid of Sullivan and who says
he can lick Corbctt with their little fin
ger, announced that he would give the
next man who had anything to do with
the injunction, all the fighting he might
desire. Now the Inspector is as much
in favor of the city hall building as is
any other tax dodger, but would eau
ton the kickers not to deliver too much
prize ring orotory against any who OPP
poses it, for this might get them so mad
that even though the postoflice is not
going to certain section of the city,
they might be able to tie up things for
a while, although the Inspector is will
ing to wager bicycle against spin
ming wheel that no injunction will ever
be signed against the city in this matter.
Car for Barre" called out the con-
ductor, and the gang came TO the city,
where they spent about twenty minutes
discussing the Aldrich will matter with
other members of the club, and then
left for the quarries to enjoy a Sunday
evening stroll, among the people that
arc some day to be made into figures OF
the beautiful. This is all the informa-
ton am today able to give concerning
the tribe of croakers who have been so
shocked because discovered by the
INSPECTOR.

WON'T TAKE OANARIES
The Administ ration So Decides-WatsOl
to Go to Spain, However.

The Administration So Decentralization
to Go to Spain, However.
New York, July 25.-The Herald pub
fishes the following from its Washing
ten correspondent:
President Mckinley, Secretary Long
and the naval war board have under
serious consideration plans for the fu-
ture operations Of the armorclads of the
American navy.
With the destruction Of Cervera's fleet
much of the hard work Of the navy is
done. Admiral Camara and the rem
nant of the Spanish navy under his
command will remain in home waters,
it is believed, preparing for the battle
which will be precipitated upon the APP
pearance Of Commodore Watsons fleet.
This fleet is to be in fine condition be-
fore it's departure for European waters.
That it is still the intention of the
department to send it abroad is perhaps
best shown by the fact that the fleet of
golfers collected at Hampton Roads is
intact and no consideration has been
given to the idea Of dissolving it. Sec
rotary Long said that the time of the
departure of Watson's squadron entire
ly depends upon the president. The
composition of Commodore Watson's
fleet was given consideration at the
White House, and it was deemed advis-
able to put the ships in excellent condi-
ton before sending them abroad.
So far as the Canary islands are con-
cerned, there is little reason to believe
that this government will attempt to
occupy them. The Philippines consti-
tute a large white elephant" so big
that the administration does not know
what to do with it, and 1t Is certainly
not going to take second on it's hands.
am able to say on authority that the
president would not permit the idea of
taking possession of any of the Canary
islands, even for use as u base of op-
erations against Spain, for the reason
that he does not want any more unde-
sirable possessions on his hands and
does not desire to give Europe the i'm
preston that the United State aims at
a base from which it could operate
against the continent.
The new plan being prepared will, of
course, not necessitate any rendezvous
near Europe, as all Of the ships Will
start together. The plan of operations
will be carefully considered, and the
views OF Admiral Sampson and Com
modore Watson will be obtained before
their final adoption.

made their way to a quiet spot far from
the place where most of the crowd gath
cred, and here they proceeded to the
usual order of business, little thinking
that the Inspector was playing detective
and taking verbatim the "doings''.
The first chapter OF business was the
report of the Boss who was at the pre-
vious meeting instructed to call on the
city council to investigate in relation to
the building of better sidewalks in vari-
Gus sections of the city. The Boss said
that be was unable to catch tho ear of

the entire body being out on water

hoped the club would lend every man
who is put inside the place sufficient
money for finding some Collecting Com

the men who tumble into that "Sweat
Box" are without any relief and he ask :
ell the club to pass vote denouncing a
city that treats prisoners in this way.

President Mckinley to General Gordon

President Mckinley to General Gordon.
Washington, July 25.-President Nc
Kinley has sent the following letter to
John b. Gordon in response to resolu-
tons adopted by the Confederate Vet
Grams association in session at Atlanta
Dear General Gordon-Your recent
telegram in behalf of the United Con-
federate Veterans was very welcome,
and / would have written to you be-
fore in Acknowledgement excepting for
the unusual demands upon my time.
The present war has certainly served
one very useful purpose in completely
celebrating the sectional lines drawn
in the last one. The response to the
nations call to arms has been equally
spontaneous and patriotic in all parts
of the country. Veterans Of the grey
as well as of the blue are now fighting
side by side winning equal renown.
Their brave deeds and the unequaled
triumphs Of our army and navy have
received the gratitude of the people Of
the United States
To have such hearty commenda-
ton from yourself and your colleagues
of the work Of this administ~ ..tion in
the conduct Of the war and le pledge
of whatever support may b. needed to
help in bringing it to a SUGGEST COM
pletion is indeed most gratif AS, and
1 thank you for the frank and cordial
expression of resolutions passed and
forwarded to me. With very kind re-
CARDS l am, sincerely yours,

ARGONAUTS RETURN.
Some Klondikers Have Gold, but Many
Havo Come Back Broke.

Have Come Back Broke.
Seattle, Wash, July 25.-One hundred
and thirteen KlOndikers have arrived
here on the steamer Garonne. The most
conservative estimate places the
amount of gold they brought at $5O0O0O.
Dr. ID. w. Ward of Portland, Or, says
there are many who have large amounts,
while on the other hand many are COM
ing out broke. II. N. jacobson of Sac
ramento is said to have $4,000 and is
probably the largest individual holder
of the yellow stuff. OF twU'brothers of
Philadelphia, who are reported to have
$4,000 each in dust, the story is told
that they refused to put their treasure
in the steamers safe. They guarded it
all the way down, taking watches of six
hours each. They said they were going
to take it to the Philadelphia mint and
would not let it go out of their sight one
moment until they arrived there.
II. G. Sibray of Portland with four
others, was capsized while floating
down the Klondike river in a small
boat. All lost what they had made
during the winter. The hardships in
that country, he says cannot be over
estimated.
There is plenty of gold there" said
he, land a few good claims, but thou
sands Of claims will not pay the re-
cordng fees"
The steamer Garonne collected $780,
900 in dust for passage money from st.
Michael's to Victoria. Edward Award,
who has spent five years in Alaska and
who was one of the few who settled his
claim on American territory when the
rush to the klondike occurred, returned
with nearly $4,000 in dust taken
from his claim on Napoleon gulch. He
says that within a few years diggings
will be developed on American territory
that will surpass those Of the Klondike.
