TERRIBLE BRIDGE DISASTER.
Two Spans Give Away and Eighty Men are
Hurled into the Seetbing River Below.


Two Spans Give Away and Eighty Men are
Hurled into the Seetbing River Below.
Hogansburg. N. Y, Sept. Two
spans of the international bridge OF
the New York s. Ottawa railroad, now
under construction across the st.
Lawrence river, fell without warning,
with eighty-two men at work on the
bridge, all being thrown into the river
some sixty feet below. Over thirty
eight were picked up and taken to
Cornwall hospital and thirty are now
missing.
The bridge consists of three spans,
of VIII ich two were complete, and the
third was nearly completed when the
south pier gave way at its foundation,
causing both spans to fall into sixty
feet of water, taking its load of human
freight with it.
The construction of the bridge was
in the hands of competent and reliable
contractors, and was considered per-
fectly safe, but it seems that the swift
ness of the current was underesti-
mated.

MANILA'S PROGRESS.
SEVERAL Strikes Have Already Occurred and
Newspaper Has Been Launched.

6everal Strikes Have Already Occurred and
Newspaper Has Been Launched.
Manila, Aug. 6.-There have been
several labor strikes here, the demand
being for excessive wages. Because
the American authorities in the early
exigencies of the situation here agreed
to the extravagant demands of the
laborers, it has been difficult to return
to an equitable basis. One of these
strikes caused the suspension of traffic
on the tramways of Manila for three
days.
Copies of the new tariff have been
circulated here, but it has not yet been
enforced, pending receipt of instruc-
lions from Washington. 1t is esti-
mated that under the American tariff
there will be an average reduction of
one-third as compared with that OF
Spain.
An insurgent newspaper, printed In
the Spanish language, has made Its
appearance here.

NEEDLESS LOSS OF LIFE.
An English Surgeon Cannot Understand
Why so Many American Soldiers Die.


New York, Sept. Sir William
MacCormick. president of the Royal
College of Surgeons of England, sur
geon to the Prince of Wales, and one
of the most distinguished members of
his profession in Europe, who acted as
surgeon in the Anglo-American Ambu-
lance association in the Franco-Ger-
man war, was asked his opinion con-
corning the causes of the high mortal
ity of the United States troops.
''That the mortality is highs unfor-
tunately patent, said he, especially
when compared to the illness among
our expeditions to tropical countries.
''But our experience in that respect
compares very favorably with that of
all other countries. France suffered
terrible mortality from illness in Mad
agascar-nothing | fancy in battle.
Italy, too, had serious losses from the
same cause in Abyss mia.
SIN our expedition to the west coast
of Africa, our losses from illness have
been trifiing.H
lis the west coast of Africa more
unhealthy than Cuba?" Sir William
was asked.
''Of course it is much more I'M
healthy" was the reply. There is no
reason that L can see why with proper
precautions mortality from illness
among the United States troops in
Cuba should have exceeded our NOR
tally from such cause on the west
coast of Africa.

Wild fowls consume large quantities
of seeds, insects and weeds. The food
is never in a fine condition, such az
when ground, and they prepare 1t in
the gizzard by the use Of hard, sharp
cutting gravel, as birds have no teeth
Some birds prefer animal food ex-
clusively. but many kinds consume
mostly grain and seeds. When our
domestic fowls are confined they are
therefore denied the privilege of select
ing their foods, and they must con-
sequently be fed with judgment. When
at liberty, and on range, they will
use foods most suitable for their pur-
poses. If grain has been plentiful
they will resort to insects and grass;
and IL poor in flesh, due to the food
having been more heterogeneous than
carbonaceous, they will then balance"
by eating larger proportion OF grain
and seeds. Nature prompts the fowls
to avoid certain foods when they have
been surfeited with them. as may DO
notice when the fowls reject corn and
accept oats, returning to corn again.
after a length of time. They also pre-
fer to prepare their food by grinding
it in their gizzards, and will select
whole grains in preference to ground
feed. The necessity of an abundance
of sharp grits is therefore well under
stood and should be provided at all
seasons.-Ex.

Madrid, Sept 6.-The chambers have

prophecy that there would be SEN
sational scenes upon the reopening of
the chambers, everything passed off
very quietly. The general public
seems Indifferent. The people at large
are apparently convinced that Spain
must accede to whatever the United

Thus far only routine business has

Porto Rico, refusing to obey the sum

authorizing the government to present

The president of the senate proposed
q secret discussion of the decree, and
despite the protests of some senators,
ordered that the galleries be closed,
which was done amid loud murmurs of
disapproval

Washington. Sept. President Nc
Kinley and as many members of his
cabinet as can do SO will attend some
portion of the peace jubilee, which be-
gins at the Omaha exposition on Octo-
Der 10. The president so informed a
delegation of Nebraskans who called
at the White House and presented to
him handsomely engrossed invitation
to attend.
Only pressing public business will in
terfere with this programme, but at
this time the president sees no reason
why he should not go. The delegation
consisted of Senators Allen and Thurs
ton, General John C. Gown, j. L.
Webster and w. j. Breach. Invitations
also will be extended to the members
of the United States supreme court and
the leading officials of the army and
navy and the diplomatic corps. The
presidential party probably will leave

BRAVE DEEDS IN THE soUDAN.
AngIo-Saxon Courage Won Brilliant
Victory Over the Fierce Dervishes.

SlcJOry OVer the ieTce DcTfishess
London, Sept 6.-The latest ac-
counts of the capture of Omdurman
ceived. All agree to the brilliancy of
the cavalry charge of the Twenty-frst
lancers. This was the great feature
of the battle. Every man who fell in
the charge was immedi ately hacked to
pieces by the fanatical dervishes, yet
the lancers reformed as cody as if on
parade. One corporal covered with
blood and reeling in his saddle, was
ordered to fall out. He waved his
bent lance and shouted, "Neverl"
When Lieutenant Grenfeu was
missed, Lieutenant Montmorency, with
few comrades, made most gallant
attempt to recover the body, and held
the enemy at bay with revolvers. They
recovered the body and then lost it
again, as the horse on which it was
placed SHE'D.
Cairo, Sept. 6,-Advices from Omdur-
man say that the Anglo-Egyptian cav
airy which went in pursuit of Khalifa
Abdullah after the fall of Omdurman,
abandoned the pursuit about thirty
miles beyond the city. The horses were
completely exhausted, having been
ridden forty-eight hours, during which
time fifteen had been engaged in fight
ing.
The Khalifa has gone to Kordofan,
to the southwest of Omdurman. Gen
eral Kitchener has organized an Arab
camel squad to follow him. Yesterday
the forces with the sirdar participated
in an imposing service in memory of
General Gordon.

Amsterdam. Sept. Amidst the
deafening shouts of her people, Queen
Wilhelmina was enthroned queen OF
the Netherlands. The day was most
beautiful one, the sun bursting forth
in all its glory from behind cloud
just as the young queen left the palace,
which is considered as being a happy
augury for the young sovereign. The
ceremonies in the cathedral, when the
queen mounted the throne and deliv-
cred her address, and recited the oath
to uphold the constitution, was most
impressive one, while the royal process
sion to the cathedral was magnificent
During the procession the mother of
the queen received an ovation and was
greeted with endless cheers and cries
of long live the queen mother" The
ceremonies ended with a banquet in
the palace, at which Queen Wilhelmina
proposed toast for the welfare of the
Netherlands.

A Negro Turning White

a curiosity rarely witnessed in
this country was seen at the office of
the pension examiners in Lexington,
Ky, recently. 1t was a negro man
turning white. The mans namo is
Sam Smith. He is CT years old and
came here to-day from Georgetown
to stand an examination for apension,
he having served in the Union army.
More than three-fourths Of the mans
entire body is white, the skin fairer
by far than that of tho ordinary white
man. The dark skin remaining on
the body is only in small spots.
Smith says that his skin began turn
white in 1867, and the dark skin has
been disappearing from the body
over since. The physicians who OK
amined him to-day think that should
the old man live fow years longer,
hc viii bo entirely white save por-
haps the face A peculiar feature OF
the case is that the face has not been.
turning white along with the rest oyp

a few places beneath tho hair on the
forehead, and not on tho face at
