no lawyer in France ranks higher than
NJ. Demange, and this celebrated law

For several years Maitre Labert has

the book an capital punishment and the
law applying to it in France, several
other works on legal subjects. He has

Since the beginning of the Dreyfus
trial at Rennes Mai:re Labori has been
conspicuous. To him the friends OF
Dreyfus looked for the strokes that
would tell most in favor of the pris-
oner of Devils island. The aDti-Drey-

1t is generally thought by household
authorities that b, own-shelled eggs are
superior 10 the white-shelled varieties.
An investigation has been made into
the relative merits of the two kinds OF
eggs at the California experiment sta
tion, with the result that the impress
sion that the brown-shelled eggs are
richer is not borne out by chemical
analysis. Further, physical exam
ination proves that the main points Of
superiority, though extremely slight,
are possessed by the white-shelled eggs.
But practically there is no difference,

LABORI is FAITHFUL
Dreyfus' Junior Advocate a Man
Worthy of Confidence.
Something About the Brilliant French
Lawyer who Has Been Made the
Victim of the Enemies OF
France.

Fernand Gustave CASTOR Labori is ac-
counted one of the ablest lawyers of
France. He comes from the south,
from the province of Haute-Garonne.
For many years his family has resided
in Toulouse, where he was born. His
father was soldier in the Franco-Prus-
sian war and was decorated Tor brewery
on the field of battle. Fernand, who is
not more than 40 years of age, was too
yoang to see service in that war. His
education was directed with view to
fitting him for the profession in which
he has since attained distinction. When
he was admitted to the bar with the de-
gree of master of law he removed to
Paris. Maitre Lapori is n striking fig
ure, broad-shouldered, athletic and
with pleasing face. He was possessed
at first of considerable means and soon
was one of the favorites in fashionable
society. He was a man of strong con-
victions, however, and when Valiant,
the anarchist, threw dynamite bomb
in the chamber of deputies and wounds
ed several of the lawmakers Maitre La
bori, the society favorite, had ideas
about human rights and went forward
to offer his services as counsel for the
despised anarchist.
At the conclusion of that trial Labori
wrote book on what he declared to be
an invasion of rights. Valiant was
convicted and executed, although no
one was killed by the throwing of the
bomb Labori contended that as no
murder had been committed his client
should not suffer the penalty for muir
der. The strong stand he took then
lost him his place in society, but it did
not affect his standing at the bar.
When Zola was put on trial, because
of his accusations made in connection
with the Dreyfus case, Maitre Labori
defended him. In that trial he displayed

WESTERN CITY BURNED.
The business Section of Victor, Col,
Swept by Fire-Loss Is Esti-
mated at S2,OOO,OOO.

Cripple Creek, Col, Aug. 22.-Fire has
utterly destroyed the business portion
of the city of Victor, causing loss
estimated at S2OOO,OOO. Beginning
shortly after noon, the fire ragged until
evening, consuming everything in its
way. 1t had it's origin, it is thought,
in the Merchants cafe, adjoining the
Bank of Victor, on the corner of Third
street and Victor avenue. A strong
wind from the south famed the flames
and in Il few minutes all the surround
ing houses were afire.
Help was summoned from Cripple
Creek, but the town had been built
in the early days of the camp and was
of pine timber. for the most part, and
burned like paper. Efforts were made
TO stop the progress of the flames by
blowing up buildings in their path by
means of dynamite, and all afternoon
the hills have roared with the eXplo-
sions, but the effort was in vain.
The fire claimed the Bank of Victor,
the post office, on the corner opposite
crossed Third street and followed the
row of blocks between Third and
Fourth streets to the north, taking the
Victor Banking company, the Western
Union Telegraph company's Office and
the Office of the Colorado Telephone COM
pany, the Hotel Victor, on the opposite
side of Fourth street, and the three
great shaft houses of the Gold Mining
company, and it's ore bins, among the
largest in the Cripple Creek district
From there the flames were swept
northward by the half hurricane which
was blowings and never stopped unit
they had taken the Florence & Cripple
Creek depot and the fine new depot
of the Midland Terminal road, at the
head of Fourth street. All the build
ings between these are total loss
with practically their contents, for tht
flames were so rapid in their progress,
that nothing could be saved.
The scenes of the great Cripple Creel
fire were duplicated. Hurrying befor
the roaring flames went men, womel
and children, carrying what they coult
snatch from the flames, racing. TO
their lives. The crash of building
torn asunder by dynamite and tn
craclle of the flames as they consumed
the dry buildings fastened their flight
and the pail of smoke added terror L
the spectacle. A special train wa
placed at the command of this city b.
the Florence & Cripple Creek railroad
and three companies of fremen, wit
apparatus, were rushed to the scene
They worked all afternoon in val
endeavor to stay the march of tn
flames. The residence portion of tn
city has suffered comparatively littl,
but the business portion is paralyze
and suffering is bound to follow.
The burned area may be thorough
designated as the space between th
: head of North street and Victor avenu
extending from the Gold Coin min
buildings on the west to a point nea
Second street, and down Third stree
almost to Diamond avenue. The los
has now reached $2,000,000.
The first house was built in Victor
October, 1898. In July of the followin
year the city was incorporated, and 81
years later it contained 10000 peopl
That is about the population now.

animals that have outlived their use

Sometimes a fine and valuable horse be-

When horse arrives at the farm the
animal is given at once thorough ex-

the horse by skill, care and attention
can be put in condition again its life is

When it is decided to kill horse tho

At 6 o'clock this "wednesday morn
ing the flying column, with the Third
artillery and the Montana and Kansas
volunteers on the left of the railroad,
and the Pennsylvania, South Dakota
and Nebraska volunteers on the right,
started for Rocave across two miles of
open field. The insurgents began to
fire Immediately, and continued until
the troops reached the river at Bocave.
The American troops never wavered.
The Nebraska regiment swung in from
the extreme left and doubled up the
insurgents left at the river. The in
surgents ran, after some rails had been
removed from the railroad. Wounded
insurgents reported that the enemy
had retreated to Balolos.
In the Pennsylvania regiment there
was one killed and five wounded. The
Kansas regiment lost one officer and
fifteen priVateS wounded. In the Mon
tana regiment five were wounded, and
in the Nebraska regiment one man was
killed and ten wounded. The American
advance was wonderfully rapid, con-
sidering that the enemy destroyed the
bridges and fed.
There was no resistance at Bigaa.
The troops advanced rapidly in con-
tracted lines to the town Of Guiguinte.
The Pennsylvania regiment crossed the
bridge as the advance guard. UneX-
pectedly the insurgents concealed in
the woods ahead opened a heavy fire.
Then the Kansas regiment and one
battalion of the South Dakota rushed
over the bridge under fire. Two of
the Utah battery guns and one Colt
rapid-firer also came into action. The
insurgents had made trenches across
the railroad Our loss was several

Boston, March 30.-A letter bearing
the date of Feb. and signed by 100 or
more of the most prominent men in
and around this city, headed by ex-
Governor George S. Boutwell,, com
mending the attitude in congress of
Senator Hoar and inviting him to ad-
dress them at a future date, was made
public today.
Accompanying it is the letter of ac-
acknowledgement from Senator Hoar,
bearing date of yesterday, in which he
saws:
Il do not think there is any reason
personal to me for holding such pub
lie meeting. Undoubtedly there should
be and there will be many public meet
ings the country over to protest against
trampling under foot the rights of a
brave people struggling for their liber-
ties, the violation of the principles of
our own constitution and of the declar
alton of independence and the contin-
uance by the American people in the
costly and ruinouS path which has
brought other republics to ruin and
shame, which will dishonor labor, place
intolerable burdens upon agriculture,
and fasten upon the republic the shame
of what President Mckinley has so
lately and SO truthfully declared to, be
criminal aggression. But think it will
be wiser to. have meetings of that char
acter q little later, rather than just
now. We do not yet know whether the
present war for the subjugation of the
people of the Philippines is to continue
indefinitely, or whether there is to be

a speedy submission to the overwhelm-
ing power of the United States. If the
war shall shortly be ended, we shall
then be able to discuss the question of
our national duty free from the disturb
ing influences which exist always when
the country is at war. If, on the other
hand, the war shall long and indefinite
ly continue, the people will begin to
feel the burden of increased debt and
increased taxation, the loss of life and
health OF our youth and the derange-
ment of trade and peaceful industry"
BOUGHT LIKE SHEEP.
Senator Hoar says further: "The
blood of the slaughtered Filipinos, the
blood and the wasted health of life of
our own soldiers, is upon the heads of
those who have undertaken to buy a.
people in the market like sheep. or to
treat them as lawful prize and BOOTY
OF war, to impose a government upon
them without their consent and to
trample under foot not only the peouIe
of the Philippine islands, but the prin-
clples upon which the American repub-
lie itself rests.
The law of righteousness and justice,
on Whlcn the great and free American
people should act, and, in the end. I
am sure, will act, depends not upon
parallels of latitude and meridians of
longitude or points of the compass. 1t

In that event the storming of the
city itself would not begin until tomor
row. There is no certainty, however,
that the short distance may not be
compassed early today, so as to per-
NIT an assault late today or during the
night. General Corbin was of the
opinion that the attack would begin
today.
Major Simpson of the military infor
nation bureau had made a final read
justment of the American position,
showing just. how the approach to the
insurgent capital will be executed. 1t
shows the brigade of Hale stretched
out on the right and that of Harrison
Gray Otis ON the left. Each brigade
in this advance line is made up of sea-
soned volunteers, with four batteries
of the Third artillery, these being the
only regulars. But just back of them
and midway between the two advance
brigades is the strong force of Wheat
on, which has been kept from the ardu-
