TEN ORANGES FOR A CENT.

high price. says the New York Tribune.
Il wonder what they'd think of that
in Porto Rico?" he remarked. why, a
few weeks ago, just outside of San Juan,
! met n man carrying great basket
OF the finest oranges l ever saw. They
were about three times as big as these,
and were full of sweet juice, as found
by trying one. I asked him how much
he wanted for the lot-there were CO.
and he said: Ten centavos'-about six
cents Of our money. Think Of it! Ten
for cent. ! closed the bargain, and
when got into the city began to boast
OF it. But it didn't seem to impress
people much. In fact, one seemed to
think I'd been swindled.
"'You could have bought them
cheaper than that he said, seriously,
if you had got them in quantity
II don't believe I'll eat oranges any
more, now that I've come north--too
much of a contrast, both in quality and
price, to what I've been paying"

"When the hardtack came up that
afternoon felt much sympathy for the
hungry unfortunates in the trenches
and hated to condemn them to six
hours more without food" writes Col.
Roosevelt in Scribner's but did not
know how to get food in to them. Little
McGinty, the bronco-buster, volun-
teered to make, the attempt, and gave
him permission. He simply took a case
of hardtack in his arms and darted to-
ward the trenches. The distance was
but short, and, though there was an
outburst Of fire, he was actually missed.
One bullet, however, passed through
the case of hardtack just before he dis
appeared with it into the trench. A
trooper named Shanafelt repeated the
feat later. with pail Of coffee. Another
trooper, George King, spent q leisure
hour in the rear, making soup out of
some rice and other stuff he found in
Spanish house; he brought some of it
to Gen. Wood, Jack Greenway and my
self, and nothing could have tasted
more delicious

PARIS, July 2i-Dispatches received here
from Pretoria, South African Republic. say
that the absence of President Kruger from
the meeting of the executive council to-day
gave currency to report that he had re-
signed, owing TO differences between him-
self and members Of the Volksraad. Pres
ident Kruger, when seen tonight in re-
gard 10 the matter. denied these rumors.
stating positively that they were without
foundation.
PRETORIA, July 21.-President Kruger
has been absent from the government build
ing since Friday afternoon and 1t was I'M
derstood that, owing to the opposition
shown him by the executive council and
Volksraad regarding the questions of the
Johannesburg franchise for the land and
dynamite monopoly, he had arrived at the
conclusion that he no longer possessed the
Volksraad's confidence and threatened TO
resign. To-day. however. a deputation. in
Guiding General Joubert. the vice president,
Herren Schalk and Burger and the chair
man Of the Volksraad, waited on President
Kruger and induced him to attend secret
session of the Volksraad. which lasted over
three hours. Meanwhile an anxious crowd
had assembled outside the building, waiting
expectantly to learn the outcome Of what
was regarded as a momentous debate.
Late this evening it was announced that
the Volksraad had finally assured the Pres
ident that it had the utmost confidence in
him. 1t is understood, however. that a
majority Of the members of the Rad still
differ with the President on the dynamite
monopoly question.

outragers of Mrs. ]. z. Ogetree at Saffold

information, lynched three negroes and
caught two more, who will probably be put
to death tomorrow. The two negroes found
dead along the railroad track here are be-
lieved by many people to have been lynched,
yet a coroner's jury to-day decided that
their death was accidental. Charles Sam
min. one of Mrs Ogletree's assaulters, was
shot to death and his body mutilated and
his clothes cut into hundreds Of pieces for
distribution as souvenirs of the occasion.
Two other negroes, names unknown, were
shot in the swamps near the Chattahoochee
and their scalps brought TO Saffold The
blacks found dead along the railroad were
identified as Bob Johnson and Monroe Clark,
of Saffold. kid jim" another of the gang

Terrible Suferings Of Edmonton
Trail Survivors.

WRANGEL, Alaska, June %, via Seattle,
July 24-The Stickeen river steamers
Strathcona and Cascar arrived here yester-
day with fifty-seven survivors Of the Ed
monitor trail TO Dawson. These unfortunates
had been on the trail nearly two years and
related tales of hardship and demonstrated
the nonfeasibility Of both the land and
water routes overland. Under orders of the
Canadian government the Hudson Bay and
other trading companies have sent out re-
lief parties to bring in the several hundred
sick and starving still struggling along the
Pelly river. During the past winter it is es-
timated that fifty died of scurvy and as
many more were drowned. while others re-
turned to Edmonton.
Strong language is used in decrying the
Misrepresentation sent to newspapers by
agents of the transportation and trading
companies operating at and about Edmon-
ton as well as the Canadian officials who
said the route was practicable one. A MAJ
jority of the survivors are without fundsS
The majority are American citizens and the
local authorities are notifying the Washing
ton officials of their destitute condition.

Claim He Has Resigned.

LONDON, July 25.-The johannesburg
correspondent of the Standard says: Pres
ident Kruger sent letter to the Volksraad
resigning the presidency in consequence of
the refusal to give him a free hand as TO
the dynamite monopoly. He attended the
meeting of the Rad this afternoon during
the consideration of his letter. 1t is not yet
known whether his resignation was condi-
tional. The news was kept secret at Pre-
toria.''
The Times publishes statement from its
johannesburg correspondent identical with
that telegraphed by the representative of
the Standard and says the information
came from an apparently trustworthy
source.

spondent says: There is no likelihood of
the Presidents resignation, which is not de-
sired at the present moment in the inter-
ests of either the uitlanders or the Trans
walters"

MINNEAPOLIS, Mimi, July PA spe-
cial from Duluth says: Big combination
promoters are not through their work. and
the latest that comes to the owners Of ship
ping at this city is a scheme for the con-
solidation of all the independent lake ship
ping lines outside Of the great fleets of the
ore companies. There is a merchant fleet
on the lakes of about 900 tons register.
and Of this great share is still owned by
the men who have from one to two or three
ships, called tramp ownerships." Most OF
the lake fleet is owned by such companies
as the Bessemer companies. with their
twenty-four ships; the American Steel
Barge Company, the Minnesota Iron Com
pany, the various trunk railway lines, the
American Steel and Wire Company and a
few others. These could all be brought into
such shape as to work in harmony, with a
combination of the remaining shipping in
terests controlling the larger class of ton
mage. and such understanding is already
had between them to make 1t reasonably
sure that they will be so harmonized when
the time comes. The high prices at which
the ships are just now held has had the eff
feet of delaying the completion of the COM
bination, but it is expected by those on the
inside that this difficulty will be surmount-
ed soon and the prices will have been JUS
titled by events or will be modified.

SICK sOLDIERs HOME.
Three Died on the Morgan City Dur
ing Trip from Manila.

SAN FRANCISCO, July A.-The United
States transport Morgan City, which has
been converted into hospital ship, arrived
to-day from Manila, having on board over
four hundred sick and convalescent soldiers.
Three died on the voyage-Private c. j.
Bobbs. Tenth Pennsylvania; Private Lewis
Cook, Twenty-second Regiment. and First
Lieutenant Jackson. First South Dakota.
These succumbed TO dysentery, the disease
with which most the others are afflicted All
of those on board were ill when the steamer
left Manila. but the removal from a tropical
climate and the air so benefited the in
valids that on arrival here only twenty-five
were unable to leave their berths. Every
command and almost every regiment is rep
resented among the returning soldiers.
The officers on the transport. all of whom
are in good health, are: Capt. T. W. Moore,
Twenty-first Infantry, In command; Major
H. w. Cardwell chief surgeon United States
Capt. Andrew Johnson. First Montana;
Capt. ID. Baldwin, First North Dakota, and
First Lieut. II. A. Pratt, First South Da-
kota. On entering the Golden Gate the Nor
gan City proceeded at once to the govern
ment quarantine station. though there was
no infectious diseases aboard this being the
custom with transports conveying invalid
soldiers. After thorough inspection of the
ship the transfer OF the men to the military
hospital at the Preside began. the United
States tug General Mcdowell being used for
the purpose. Only few troops are suffering
from the effects Of gunshot wounds.
