The acute crisis between the United

WASHINGTON, March 14.-There is
no prepared programme for the senate
for the present week. If Senator Ba-

date to move to lay Senator Bacon's

1t is upon this motion that the MAX
ers of the treaty hope to secure a test
vote, and Senator Davis said that he
was hopeful that this vote might be
reached during the present week.

The idea that Uncle Sam is at present

mistake. He still has land enough to
give each one of his 70, 900, 900 children

each and still have ranch of over 49,
600, 900 acres left. In other words, your
dear old uncle still owns something
over 600, 100000 acres, distributed as
follows throughout the various states
and territories: #
Alabama, 532, $50 acres; Arizona,

About one-half this vast amount of
land lies, it will be seen, in Alaska, and
it is very certain that this will never be

for mining purposes its value in cold

A sTlRRING IN 'TERvlEW.


The Adventure Of s Yankes Iieutenant sc
tsibraltars IN 1903.
Two noteworthy facts mark the bat
tie Of Lake Cham plain and that Of Lake
Erie. They were the only squadron bait
ties Of the war Of Is IL, and the two vic
torious American commanders were very
young. Perry was 90 and Macdonough
80. 81 s
When Marlborough was but 90 years
Of age, an adventure at Gibraltar, in
1906. described in Mr.. Spears 9 History
sof5 Our Navy, 8 showed heScharacter Of
the man. He was first lieutenant Of the
Yankee trig Siren, and one day while
the captain was on shore at Gibraltar
Yankee merchantmen came into the
port and anchored near the Siren. "A
boat from a British frigate near by
went directly to the merchantmen and
in q few minutes pulled away again,
having one more man in It than when
1T left the frigate. Il.
Macdonough noted the fact and sent
Lieutenant Page to the merchantmen,
who returned with the information that
the British had impressed one Of the
crew Of the merchantman
Macd onough ordered the Sirens gig
away. manned with armed men, and
getting into it himself overlook the
British boat alongside Of the frigate and
took out of it by force the Impressed
seaman and carried him to the Siren.
Later the captain of the British man
of-war came on board the Siren and in
great rage demanded to know how
Macdonough had .tdared to take man
from one Of his majesty's boats.'''
II will, = said he, sshaul nv shin
alongside the Siren and take the man
by force. - 4 .3.z j.
Il suppose answered Macdonough,
your ship can sink the Siren, but as
long as she can swim I shall keep the
man."
You are very young man and very
indiscreet,' said the bully. "Suppose I
had been in the boat. What would you
have done?'' ss - =,
II would have taken the man or lost
my life, - replied Macdonough :.
"What, sir, would you attempt to
stop me if were now to try to impress
men from that brig?" Numbered the
captain -.. ~. - :
Il would.'' answered the calm Mac
donough, "and to convince yourself
that would you have only to make the
attempt" f....--< -..s
At'that the British captain got into
his boat, rowed away to his frigate and
then turned and rowed toward thesmer-
chairman. Macdonough at once manned
boat with an armed crew and rowed
out to protect the brig. The English
man rowed around the merchantmen
without boarding her and then put back
to his frigate. He had tried to impress
the Yankee sailor not because he wished
to add more to his crew, but to show
his contempt for the little Yankee war
ship. -Youth's Companion.

INTO TWO CONVENTIONS
REPUBLICANS WILL NOT NAME JU-

Second Session for the Purpose to BE
Called Later-DemOcratic Con-
VentiOn To-Day.

The executive committee of the Repub-
ican county central committee met last
night to discuss the prelminaries to the
county convention, which is to be held one
week from to-day in Tomlinson Hall. The
experience of the Democrats in their all
night session and necessary adjournment ON
two occasions prompted the committee to
divide the convention into two meetings.
The judicial ticket will not be named next
Saturday; the nominations for judges of the
Criminal and Superior Courts being left to
another session. A new set of delegates
will be selected for the second convention,
to be called by the executive committee.
1t was decided that next Saturdays con-
vention shall begin at $50 o'clock i'll the
morning. The executive committee did not
go into the business of naming the officers
and committees for the convention. An
other meeting will be held about the middle
of next week for this purpose
Those precinct committeeman who have
not notified County Secretary Elliott of the
place to hold the county primaries in are
urged to at once report the place. Where
these places are not reported. the one used
for the township primary will be selected
by the chairman.

THE WINNIE SMITH PAROLE.
The Governor Receives but One Let
ter of DisapprOVaI.

Governor Mount has received but one
communication expressing disapproval of
the action of the board of managers of the
State Reformatory in paroling Winnie
Smith. 1t was from a man in this city,
and he denounced the action as an out
rage. Governor Mount is still of the belief
that the board made a grave mistake, and
he will do anything in his power to undo
the work of the board. Under the law,
however, it seems that nothing can be
DONE not even by the board itself. Smith
has been paroled during good behavior, and
nothing short Of a failure to comply with
the terms of his parole. will suffice to make
him prisoner again. He must be given
chance under the law. His friends say that
he will not violate the provisions under
which he gains his liberty.
1t was discovered in the Governors Of
flee yesterday that the term of d. j.
Eichorn, of Button, as a member of the
board of managers expired March Is. This
was before the parole of Smith, but the
fact cannot invalidate the parole, as the
members of the board are appointed to
serve until their successors are appointed
and qualified Governor Mount will prob
ably appoint Mr.. Eichorn to succeed him
self.
