wH1rEMAN FAILED TO APPEAR
New York Omcern Looking for Him
With Another Warrant.

New York, May 30.-No one answered
when the name of Alonzo J. Whiteman was
called in the jefferson Market police court
Yesterday Detective Sergeants Reidy and
Armstrong who had arrested him on Sun
day morning on a warrant charging him
with passing a worthless check were pres
ent and Secretary Jacques, Of the Hotel
Mems Association. and a score Of hotel
men were on hand and ready to prefer 9TH
er charges against Whiteman. but the for
mer State Senator had apparently used the
opportunity to skip which had been offered
him by Magistrate POOLS unusual course
in accepting his cash bail of $500. Mag
istrate Pool declared Whiteman's bail for
feited.
The failure Of whiteman tc appear SEEM
ed to irritate Magistrate Pool and he lost
no opportunity of venting his wrath on
the detectives. They did not 'ail to remind
him that they had warned him on Sunday
morning that the prisoner would disappear
If released on bail, and also that they lad
tried to tell him about several other
charges pending against Whiteman. Il
don't care a damn what. you said," the
magistrate retorted.
Finally a new warrant was granted for
Whiteman's arrest.

A Currency Famine.
From the Boston Herald.)

Word comes from Washington that there is a
currency famine at the Treasury. The term
"currency," as used by the department, means,
tn broad way paper money. OF course, gold
coin, which the Treasury holds in superabundant
supply is currency. and has quite as good a title
to be SO classed as be claimed for green
backs or Treasury notes or any other form Of the
paper circulation, but IN official parlance dis
tinction is made. The gold reserve amounts to
about s2e7 600 600, in coin and bullion, and now
that the Philippine indemnity is paid and the re-
ceipts running little above the expenditures,
this fund shows a tendency to increase, while the
stock Of currency has fallen TO very low point,
and Is still the ebb in spite Of all the depart
ment can do for its enlargement. The marrow
of the matter lies in the fact that the American
people have inherent preference for paper
money.

sympathy for the Boat. Children.

Rapid City, S. D., May 30.-Lena and
Nicholas Bouts, the two children who shot
and killed their father, Frank Bouts, be-
cause he struck them, are attracting much
interest here. The district court has
issued an order removing the children
from the Jail and putting them in the care
Of the sheriff's wife. The girl is four
teen and small for her age, while the boy
is but ten. There is general sentiment
against trying the children for murder.
The father was known as cruel man
when drunk and is said to have been
drinking the day his children shot him.
The mother Of the children is with them.
The girl has a great bruise on her cheek
where the rife with which she killed her
father recoiled and struck.

The Dogs of COnstantinople.

I never saw SO much mud. such unspeak-
ably filthy streets, and SO many dogs as
Constantinople can boast. but nowhere
have / seen them described in a satisfac-
tory way-so that you knew what to ex-
pect, I mean. In the first place. they
hardly look like dogs. They have woolly
tails like sheep. Their eyes are dull,
sleepy, and utterly devoid of expression.
Constantinople dogs have neither masters
nor brains. No brains because no masters.
Perhaps no masters because no brains.

MANlLA.s STREET CARS.

Ter AnsrloAn CnptSet.
Another thing which is destined to
undergo a speedy transformation Is
the tramway system now In operation
In Manila. Although Manila has over
3OO, 600 people within Its limits and is
scattered over wide extent, the street
cars are small concerns propelled by
motive force of one pony, or rabbit.
Appearances indicate that the animal
is a large rabbit, but common belief
credits 1t with being species OF horse,
with Stats like picket fence. The
cars always are crowded, and 1t is
really pitiful to see those poor little
beasts struggling along with an Indian
driver yelling and blowing rubber
whistle that makes noise when 1t ex-
hausts. When the car reaches one OF
the inclined approaches to any of the
numerous bridges, an extra pony Is
attached, the street is cleared for half
block, several excited natives start
the street car with the ponies gallop-
ing and the momentum Of the force
acquired In the 1O0-yard dash carries
the car to the level Of the bridge. This
Is one Of the most exciting events that
happens In Manila, and is attended by
no much noise and yelling that 1t comes
nearly being ceremony. The car sys-
TEN pays 8 per cent. dividend, how
ever, in spite OF the wretched equip
ment. An electric street railway will
pay from the beginning.

The new diplomacy" has been much
in mems mouths of late rs synonym
for honest, straightforward dealing be-
tween nations. 1t means, says Mr..
Chauncey Depew, that the liar has dis
appeared. The British ambassador to
France declared, in his recent disturb
ing speech, that 1t had been taught the
nations by the last three United States
ministers to Great Britain. or one Of
these. the late Thomas Bayard, the
Contemporary Review declares: He
firmly believed that in telling the Eng
lish people what mis- own country
meant and what were its genius, its
duties and its hopes. he was doing the
greatest good to mankind" Happily

Railroad men report that the move
ment OF manufactures from the East
to the wes, is quite pronounced Many
industries can be carried on more
cheaply than In the East and
manufacturers are alert TO all
such advantages. One industry
which has cmigrated from the
East to the West is the manufacture OF
pearl buttons. The largest button fac
tories In the United States are At
Newark. n. j.. but several have re-
Gently been established In Iowa. The
Eastern factories formerly used shells
imported from India and Australia, but
latterly these have given way TO the
clam shells found In the Mississippi
river, In the Rock river. Illinois and In
the Cedar river, la. From these shells.
which were never before utilized, n big
Industry has arisen. The shells are
gathered In large quantities by wad-
crH, who receive from 1 TO 3 cents n
pound for them. Some OF the specl-
mems are four inches across. and for
nil practical purposes they are as good
as the imported article, save In depth
Of coloring. The price paid for the
domestic shell ia remarkably low rs
compared with the cost OF the I'M
ported shell, which sells In New York
for ~ or 30 cents a pound. Fifteen
pounds OF buttons can be obtained
from 100 pounds OF shells. and this
fac, has led some OF the Eastern manu-.
fac,urcrs to establish button blank
factories In the West. The machinery
In these punches out the disk which
makes up tho button, and the manu-
facturcr escapes the payment ~

To remember the names Of persons
is commonly regarded as the first
necessary qualification of politicians.
Oftentimes. however. they go ioo far
in trying to master this art, and so fall
into amusing blunders. Senator Vest
relates this story at the expense Of
one OF his senatorial associates. In
some way. he says, the senator, who
was usually good at remembering
names. had forgotten that of county
chairman. and so bluntly asked 1t.
why" said the young chairman, in
offended dignity, I'm Jones! thought
you knew me-" "Of course | do" re-
piled the senator. quickly, but which
one of Mr.. Jones sons are you? I
knew your father well for years"
"And he had only one son." was the
unsympathetic reply.

WHAT THE COLORADO

ticable and undesirable legislation.
Senator Fred w. Parks is confident
that the Supreme Court will declare
his bill, No. 142, I'm accord with the
constitution. The bill IL intended to
bring about an innovation In the con-
duct Of juries in civil cases, provid-
ing that three-fourths vote of any

together with Attorneys Harper NJ.
Orahood and Ben b. Lindsey spoke in
favor of the bill, claiming that there
Is no constitutional provision regulat-
Ing legislation as to juries in civil ac-
tions, while Attorneys Reed, Byron l..
Carr, s. IL. Browne and w. G. Kings
ley argued that 1t is In violation of the
constitution. Tint document describes
criminal juries as remaining always
inviolate, but says nothing with refer
ence to civil jurles. voluminous briefs

hands Of the House committee on Den
YER city charter resolution calling
for committee Of three representa-

Chairman Browning of the charter

posed in good faith. "rhe resolution

Senator Ammons. in speaking of the
bill to establish Teller county. said
that the valuation OF the new county
was about S5.4O0,000. In addition there
is the output of the mines, the divi-
dends from which were S2.5SS.5l4 in
1898. From these sources the revenue
would be 100000 at least, annually.
