GEN. HARDIN is sending out large
and pretty pictures OF himself with
small ones of Bryan and Blackburn, on
which are printed, Together in De-
feat" Together in Victory" From
the present reading of the political
kaleidoscope, there is some doubt that
the general will be of the trio under
the latter head, but his election or de-
feat will cut no figure in the promised
victory for the other two. No matter

Blackburn will be elected L. 5. Sena-

The Prisoners Taken to Pretoria
and Lodged in Jail
There.
Prisoners Accused of Having En-
rolled Men to Cause a
Rebellion.
discriminating Documents Found
and Further Arrests Are
Expected.

CAPETowN, May 1.-THE Argus OF
this city publishes dispatch from Pre-
toria, capital of the Transvaal South
African republic, saying that P. w.
Reitz, secretary of state, confirms the
report that number of unusual arrests
have been made there, and it is rumored
the prisoners are British officers.
PRETORIA, May 1.-THE arrest at
johannesburg of seven men, alleged
former British officers, named Nichols.
Patterson, Tremlett, Ellis, Freise, Hop
per and Mitchell, on the charge of high
treason, has caused intense excitement
here. The prisoners were brought to
Pretoria by special train. After they
had been lodged in Jail they were Wis
tied by the British diplomatic agent
here.
The arrests were effected by detec-
tive who joined the movement which,
it is asserted, was for the purpose of en-
rolling men in order to cause an out
break of rebellion. discriminating doc
uments were found on the prisoners
and it is expected that further arrests
will be made.
LONDON, May 1.-THE advices from
johannesburg are probably connected
with mysterious dispatch received at
johannesburg from Pretoria on May ~,
saying a special train fully equipped
with Boer artillerymen, guns and a
searchlight apparatus, was being held
in readiness at the capital of the Trans
vaal. The statement was then declared
to be without significance, but this news
throws more serious light on the
movement, and it is certain there will
be a great sensation in London when
the news of the arrests becomes gener-
ally known. The afternoon newspapers
print special dispatches from Capetown
saying seven men have been arrested at
johannesburg and have been taken to
Pretoria. The government of Cape Col
ony, it further appears, is considering
the 4,I,t.tUI ovCIct.,.

Deafness Cannot BE Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure Deafness
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an inflamed
condition of the mucous lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube
gets infamed you haye a rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing, ana when
it is entirely closed Deafness is the
result, and unless the inflammation can
be taken out and this tube restored to
it's normal condition, hearing will be
destroyed forever; nine cases out of
ten are caused by catarrh, which is
nothin5 but an infamed condition of
the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars

MOSS AFTER VAN WICK.

Some Interesting Evidence.

Counsel for Mazet Committee Promises
Some Interesting Evidence.
NEW YORK, May 1.-THE Mazet in
vestigating committee has resumed it's
session after prolonged recess. A fair
sized crowd was on hand early, among
them being Mayor Van Wyck, who,
with the heads of various city depart
ments had been summoned to appear.
1t was announced that the committee
will sit daily, Tuesdays, Wednesdays,
Thursdays and Fridays until its work is
concluded, but this programme was in
terfered with by the extra session of the
legislature which begins on Monday
next.
During his examination, Mr.. Moss,
counsel for the committee, asked Mayor
Van Wyca a question which implied
that the mayor was financially inter-
ested in pool rooms, which are alleged
to be running here in violation of law.
Mr.. Van Wyck Indignantly denied the
imputation and challenged Mr.. Moss to
produce the evidence. The only salts
faction the latter would give the mayor
was to tell him to wait day or two
and he would learn something that he
evidently knew nothing about now.
Mayor Van Wyck resented bitterly
an insinuation by Mr.. Moss that Mr..
Croker was of necessity consulted by
the mayor in reference to city affairs.

In Dispatches to the War Depart
notwithstanding to Washing
ton Officials,
Cuban Generals" Are at the
Bottom of the Whole Trouble
There.
Think They Do Not Get a Fair
Share of the 100000 to
Be Distributed.

WASHINGTON, May 17.-Gen. Brooke
has not reported to the war department
any serious situation in Cuba, and it is
not believed at the department that any
alarm need be felt regarding the condi-
ton of affairs. No advice is given Gen
eral Brooke, as it has been the policy of
the president to clothe the officers in
command in the islands with plenary
powers to deal with situations as they
arise and hold such officers responsible.
The confidence of the war department
in General Brooke was strengthened by
the visit of Secretary Alger to Cuba.
What had been done and what was 60
ing forward seemed to Secretary Alger
to be for the best interests of all the
people of the island. 1t is said to be
the policy of General Brooke to deal
mildly with the Cubans and to avoid, as
far as possible, any action which will
tend to irritate them; but that he will
be firm when it is necessary and the
disturbers will be made to understand
that no overt act is permitted. Com
munications that General Brooke has
made to the war department regarding
the situation are not given to the public
but the officials unders tand that the
source of present trouble is tn at "gen-
erals"of the Cuban army are disappointed
because they are not likely to realize as
much out of the money appropriated for
the army as they think they should.
These generals" all believed that they
would secure proportion Of the money
equal to their rank and their own esti-
mate of their service. The whole trou-
BILE regarding the payment of the money
and the delay may be traced directly to
these officers, who. as members of the
assembly, or as supporters of Gomez,
have constantly raised obstacles in the
way of peaceful disarmament of the
Cubans and the settlement of the affairs
of the island.
One thing is assured beyond all other
considerations. The United States will
remain for the present in absolute con-
troll OF the island, and the orders Of the
officers in command will be sustained

SneechIess With Rage.

"Strong emotion, says Darwin, Gin
terrup pts the steady flow of nerve force
to the muscles - This prevents the
proper working of those muscles which
are used in speaking; hence the STUN
bling and incoherence of the speech.
''The voice sticks in the throat" to use
the words of Virgil. In some cases
speech is for short time impossible, as
is seen where a person is said to be
'speechless with rage" The hoarseness
of the voice is due partly to the fact
that passion causes an overaction Of
all the organs, partly by the fact that
for generations harsh and fierce sounds
have been made use Of to terrify oppo-
nents in quarrels, and so have come to
be associated instinctively with anger.
Possibly the fact also has it's influence
that the utterance of sounds such as
those referred to is in some way or the
other relief to the feelings

Cienfuegos Laborers Threaten the Cap

CIENFUEGOs, Cuba, May 17.-About 5
o'clock gang of Cuban dock laborers
called upon Captain Barker, captain of
the port, and made a demand for back
pay. AS they were violent Captain
Barker drew his revolver. The laborers
retired, but returned soon after with so
others and made similar demand, US
ing obscene and profane language, in
sulting Captain Barker and offering
threats. The Cuban police were or
dered to arrest the malcontents and a
general street fight followed in which
one laborer was killed and several per-
sons were wounded, including three
members of the police force.
AS the Cuban populace became very
insulting and threatened revenge an
outbreak was feared. The Second in
fantry regiment was ordered into the
city and is now patrolling the streets.

PERIL MADE THEM FRIENDS.
The Wild Beasts Herded Together to
fk Escape a Forest Fire.

Is GScdIsc u r1res
An incident of forest fires in the hills
of the Descanso neighborhood, in south
ern California, illustrates the comrade-
ship that common peril brings about
among beasts as well as among men.
After the flames had completed their
work CT destruction and spread pail
over the hills rancher went forth
aaior,g the charred stumps and smoking
brushheaps to look for number Of cat
tie and colts which he feared had been
hemmed in by the fire. He went across
gully and ridge in his search, until at
last he saw his stock some little dis
lance ahead
He was more than astonished upon
coming up to the group to find not only
his cattle and colts. but deer, three
wildcats, coyote and several rabbits,
all alive and apparently in no fear of
him. They watched his approach with
Indifference, the timidity gone from the
big eyed deer, no venom in the wild
cats purr and honesty shining in the
gray coyotes face. The rabbits sat on
their launches as meek as the pets of
children. But the poor coyote was in
pain, and as the farmer came close the
erstwhile robber of the roost dragged
his helpless hind quarters toward the
man in mute supplication. The legs of
the animal had been frightfully burned.
The rancher was in no mood to make
friends of such strange creatures, and
at once drove his stock through the
smoldering brush, the deer going
along with the cattle, the rabbits hop
ping along at the rancher's heels, the
wildcats slouching along behind, and
the coyote. unable to follow, whining
pathetic appeal for succor. When the
burning field was passed, the deer broke
into run for the distant hills, the rab-
bits were away like flash, and the old
defiance and snarling leer came back
to the wildcats, who scorned to make a
show of haste. They walked slowly out
of sight.-San Diego Union.
