Hurt Gets His Girls

OAKLAND, July 7-Superior Judge Og-
den decided today that Joel Hurt, the veal
thy Wyoming stockman, had made out a
prima facie case for the custody of his three
girls, and that unless their mother, now
Mrs. Schaefer, could prove that she was a
proper person to care for the children, as
against their father, she would have to re-
linquish her claim upon them. The court
reserved the right, however, to guard the
interests of the children and to modify the
decree Of the Wyoming court If circum-
stances had arisen to Justify such action.
Under this ruling, Gibson, attorney for the
respondent, asked until Monday morning to
get witnesses together to prove that the
children were in good hands, and the time
was granted.

Cabinet Minister is quoted in an interview
as saying that the present government of

have to be conducted by another govern

The Cabinet is Of the opinion that the
fleet of Admiral Camara should continue
its voyage to the Philippine Islands. The

Therefore it is probable that with the

KILLED DURING THE WAR.
The High Percentage of Officers Los
il Said to Be Unprecedented.

The official record of the War Depart
ment as far as completed shows that there
We're thirty-three officers and 231 enlisted
men OF the army. 264 in all, killed in battle
during the war with Spain. These casual
ties include all the lives lost in the army
in the battles in the Philippines as well as
those in Cuba and Porto Rico. The per-
centage of officers killed is strikingly large
and is said to be unprecedented in the bat
ties of the world. The contrast is es-
pecially striking in the case of the battle
of Omdurman where, although the loss of
life was particularly heavy, the list of
killed included only one officer of the Brit
