NEGROES LEAVING GEORGIA,
Have Been Promised Good Wages and
Homes in Mississippi.

Hundreds upon hundreds of Georgia
negroes are leaving Georgia for Mis-
sissippI, where they expect t0 get farm
work at more remuneratiVe prices than
they are at present receiving.
One night last week about 500 left
Madison, Ga, in a body. they had
been fired by the glowing descriptions
of the agents, and were leaving their
old homes with regrets, but hopes OF a
brig liter future. They were loaded
down with all sorts of baggage, fal IN
and household utensils, and had sent
two or three freight cars ahead con
tanning household goods
The agents have been exceedingly
active among the negroes of the state
for many months, and their work is
bearing abundant fruit. One OF the
Madison contingent gave an idea OF
the inducements leading them to Mis-
sissippi. He said:
owe have been promised 70 cents
per day for a days work, 81 cehts per
hundred for cotton prckit e, and they
tell us the fields are white with 1t.
"For next year they promise US all
the land we can tend, with stock aud
supplies to do US, and we to get half
we make, after what was advanced to
Us is paid for"
The planters, while not suffering
personally from the emigration, be-
lipve that the negroes are being delud-
ed, and before next season they Will
be returning to Georgia.
Hundreds more of the negroes are
preparing to leave by January l.

NESBITT'S PLAN IN
LIKED BY STEVENS.
HEAD OE STATE DEPARTMENT AP-
PROVES THE UNITED EFFORT.
The Commissioner Urges Reduced Cotton
Acreage and Less Fertilizers Next Year
Raise More Grain and Meat,

81 thoroughly approve of The sug'
gastion of Senator r. 7 Nesbitt," said
Commissioner of Agriculture .. b.
Stevens. "that the farmers OF the
south should meet organization with
organization, and that it was never
more essential than right now, because
the bears will do their best to down US
next wear. pledge the full strength
of nv efforts to any work of the farm
ers to place themselves in trim for the
coming battle.
cit is remarkable to note" SAID
Commissioner Stevens, now general
is the feeling of better times over
Georgia. This is true of every section
of the state believe OF county. Inc
farmers owed less this fall for supplies
than in years-perhaps less than ever
before. In macy counties the average
Indebtedness was not over $40 per pillow
where it used to be as high as SO. AS
result. one bale of cotton at ~ cents
about paid the merchant for each pillow
on which he had advanced"
"What do you suggest 10 keep up
the price of cotton next year, the
commissioner was asked.
"Smaller acreage and less tertlllz-
ers" answered Mr.. Stevens. "Ot
course the natural tendency of every
farmer Will be to plant more cotton
next wear because he got good price
this year. But the planters know that
is the inclination of all. They have
had experience along that line.
81 think that if the papers, daily and
weekly, will urge the farmers all over
the south to cut down their cotton
acreage and their fertilizer bills and
grow more grain we can hold down
the production of cotton and keep up
the price. 1t is very important Tor
the farmers to restrict the amount OF
commercial fertilizers which they use.
And presume that the advance IN the
price of phosphates will cause them TO
buy less this year.
Now, if our farmers will just hoiG
down their acreage next year, we Will
have another crop to market at y and
s cents. Then with small fertilizer
bill and their own home raised meat
and wheat, the southern farmers VIII
be in easy circumstances with money
in the bank.
and to make these precautions
doubly effective" Commissioner Stev>
ems concluded, "let the farmers organ
ize in some way so that they may all
act along we'll understood lines"

His Joke on the Doctor.

Colonel D. r. Anthony, brother of Su-
san B. Anthony,an the last OF the fight

only man who has had his aorta severed

In newspaper feud with a gambler
named Jennison, Anthony was shot. The
doctor told him he could not live. The
wounded man did not say anything, but
babe his sister goodbye and went to
sleep. When he awoke he asked the
nurse: "What time is it?" six O'Clock, "
replied the nurse. The colonel chuckled
for a momeut then said: Say, that's a

said I'd be dead at b 30" He fell asleep

The Campaign In South Africa.

The statement in one OF our LONDON
dispatches yesterday that the BRUSH
war office had decided to deduct GER
tain amount from the pay Of the prl-
Yates and nCn~COmmisSiOned officers OF
the army in South Africa for the use
of their families. Is understood TO
mean that the British government
has come to the conclusion that the
campaign there will be long one, ana
that j { is advisable to proceed on that
understanding There are other rea~
sons for thinking that the British gov
eminent has changed its opinion about
the South African war. when the
war began it was the very general pc
lief of the British officers and private
soldiers that it would be an easy mat
ter to bring the farmers OF South
Africa to terms. They had no other
idea than that the war would be sort
of picnic. They expected to gain con-
siderable glory by running over the
Beers. as it were, and III the first few
engagements British officers stood out
in the open boldly and rolled their
cigarettes as calmly as if they were on
dress parade. They do not do that
now. Teey have found ont that the
Beers are wonderful marksman, and
thai if they do not want to get a bullet
through them the thing t. do is to
keep out of sight when there is no ne
cessity for them to expose themselves
to the rifles of the Beers In the first
few engagements the number of Brit
ish officials killed and wounded was sc
great that the government was alarmed

He IS WORTH MILLIONS
And Fears That People Want to
Rob Him of It.
so SAYS ANDRlO LUSAIK
He Is Believed to Be Insane and Was Ar
rested in Elliston by Constable
Roberts and Brought to This
City Last Night.

A man who says he is a millionaire, but
who the people of Elliston say is insane,
was brought into Anaconda late last eve
ming by Special Constable Bob Roberts of
El.iston. The man gave his name as An
drio Lusaik and said that he lives in
Butte. Lusaik is a powerfully built man
and is far from having the appearance of
man who is insane. He was arrested on
Wednesday night in Elliston and all day
yesterday while waiting for the depart
ure of the train on which he was taken
here he related to all those who were pa
tient enough to listen to his story that he
was worth more than million dollars in
money and had nearly that much more
worth of property. He said that for the
past few weeks there were men who Were
trying to rob him of it. but he emphatic
ally refused to be buncoed.
During his stay in Elliston, Lusaik had
a habit of going to houses and looking in
at the windows. He would then go around
into the stores and say that he had seen
the women fighting and that he wanted to
get them arrested
While being locked up in the county
jail. Lusaik said that he was well ac-
uuainted with several very prominent
persons of Butte who, on hearing of this
outrage that was being done him, would
surely get him out of jail.
Iusaik will probably be examined to-
day, and if the stories that are told of him
are true, he will be sent down to Warm
Springs.

Gomez Requests Brooke to Decrease the
Army of Occupation.

Havana, March General Gomez
has asked Governor General Brooke to
reduce the army of occupation to TO-
900 men. retaining 10000 Cubans in the
service Of the military government At
least, so says Senior Manuel de Ces-
pedes, who acted as Interpreter at yes
terday's council, adding that General
Brooke took the proposition under con-
sideration and promised to consult
washington. General Brooke himself
says nothing on the question.
The Cuban military assembly met to-
day at Marianao, General Andrade pre-
siding. General Andrade announced
that the pending business was of a very
important and serious nature, connect
ed with the report of the special COM
mittee that had called upon President
Mckinley. He suggested that the ses-
SION should be private and the assem-
bly, so ordered, the public being ex-
cluded. 1t is understood, however that
the session was a stormy one, the dis
cusslon being over the acceptance of
the S3,0oO000 rendered by the United
states government. Seventeen mem
bers, it is said, favored accepting this
amount, but no final decision was
reached and the assembly will meet to-
morrow afternoon at Ell Correo.

LONGEVITY IN DOGS.
Nine Years the Limit of the Average
Bench Show Here.


Dogs in this country seem to have a
shorter span of life than their relatives
of England. according to our exports
who have passed an opinion on some
notes recently published in the Field,
London, on longevity in the canine
breeds. The notes contained many at
tested accounts of dogs ranging from
IA to 25 years of age, but perhaps the
most interesting was the following
statement by Harold Leeney, NJ. r. c.
V. s..
The oldest dog l have ever known
was collie belonging to Lord Ogilvie.
He died at my intirmary from a COM
pound fracture of the, femur having
been run over by a butchers cart, at The
age of %. | was instructed to have his
name and age inscribed upon the cof-
lin in which he was sent to Scotland to
be buried. The next Oldest dog was 10
years, and nurse was kept on purpose
to attend Trim. He had bronchitis
kettle in his room and fire all ehe
year round, and wore red flannel draw
ers, besides the usual dog clothing. He
was literally sans eyes, sans teeth, sans
eVerything,' and was fed on beef tea
and the softest of buildings. without
any plums. was the dish of all others
that suited his gums -
The average age of the dog in this
country said James Mortimer, super
intendent of the Westminster Kennel
club show since 1884, lis from 10 to II
years, while I believe the exceptional
limit to be 90 years. Within the last
four months L lost by death smooth
fox terrier that was whelped in 1882
and consequently over l6 years old At
Kansas City, during the last bench
show held there, man brought to the
exhibition an old and active English
setter for his friends to see. He said
it was 20 years old and had been shot
over at birds every season since its pup
pyhood. A friend in this city owns a
wire-coated fox terrier he calls Gypsy,
that is nearly Is years old and still live
ly. The sire. by the way, was Tyke,
imported 20 this country by. j. f. |.
Granger, and exhibited at. our shows
along in the sos. He was the first wire
coated fox terrier ever shown in this
city, and lived to a very old age, SO that
Gypsy may inherit his vitality. Anoth-
er old dog is an Irish setter owned by
Fred y. Hodgman of Tuckahoe.
1t would be interesting to obtain def
mite data in this country on the subjec t
| of canine longevity. l think that few
dogs of extreme old age would be dis
covered, many of them monsrels, that
have been carefully nursed along by
their owners for 'auld lang syne,' In
the same way there is an old dog OF
two in or about every kennel of thor
oughhred CANNES. but, with the posi-
bic exception Of field dogs and fox ter
| riers, l do not think hot-booded dogs
| of long pedigree live as long here as
| in England"
One reason why the dogs of blue blood
| and ancient lineage do not thrive here
| perhaps. is that they are sent through

D0|NGS OF THE POLICE
John Home Was Looking for
Fight and Got It.
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
The Property Man of the Uncle Toms
Cabin Company Did Not Want
His Dog to Be Taken to
the Pound.
SLUGGED THEDOGCATCHER

John Homo of this city was arrested
yesterday morning on West Commercial
avenue by officer Stebbins charged with
disturbing the peace by fighting with a
man named Pierce Watkum. Both men
got badly shaken up in their fight. They
were having a quiet chat together. when,
for some reason or other, Home suddenly
smashed Watkum in the face. The latter
responded with a hard left smash in the
jaw and that was the beginning of the
fight. They were going at it pretty good
when the officer arrived on the spot. Only
one arrest was made, that of Home. He
was Immediately taken up before Judge
Fitzgerald in the police court and was
fined So which he paid.
Jones, the dog catcher, got hard beat
ing on Wednesday afternoon from the
property man of the "Uncle Toms Cabin"
company. which played three nights
engagement in this city at the Union
Family theater. 1t appears that Jones
caught one of the large dogs belonging to
the company and was going to take it
down to the pound, when he was met
by the property man of the company who
dSkGu MN lllt reason WHY ne was Taking
the dog along.
HE ain got no tag" answered Jones
well. you'd better give him up or I'll
tag you in the jaw
'If YOU want dc dog you'll have to give
me four bits. see?"
The property man then and there started
to give the dog catcher his four bits, and
before he got through, the dog catcher
was no doubt sorry that he had not given
up the dog when first requested to do so.
Jones went to the police office yesterday
and asked to have the man arrested. but
it was then too late as the company had
already left town.
David Pyne and Joe Tronris. who were
arrested a couple of days ago on Main
street by Chief White and Officer Ingalls,
for drunkenness, appeared yesterday
morning before Judge Fitzgerald and were
each sentenced to 80 days in the county
jail.
