E. IIOfstad.

Ar. F.. lofstad for many years con ncctcd with the customs service. left on the last Cottage City for Sitka to look after his valuable mining inter- ests It is possible that Mr. HofStad may find other interests require so much of his time that he will be com pelled to resign his position in the GUS toms department which would be d severe blow to the honest adminstra- tiOn of affairs in that branch of the government service. Nr. HOfstad has been in the government employ for the last fifteen years, and although ire quent efforts have been made by dis honest partisan wire workers to have him removed, they have always come to naught for the very good reason that he has always been one of the few per- sons in the customs service whose every act was free from even the appearance of dishonesty. Mr. Hofstad enjoys the enviable position of having every good citizen his friend, and all join in wish ing him even greater success in his fu- ture mining ventures than he has al- ready attained through his connection with thegreat Pandy Basin back of Sitka.

Sir Arthur Curtis Found.

News comes from the Hudson EaA posts on the Ashcroft trail to the Stk- cen river, to the effect that indians iH the employ of the Hudson Bay Con- pany have a clew which will probably lead to the recovery of the body of Sir Arthur Curtis, the young English Baronet, who is supposed to have suic- ided because of the difficulties of the terrible Ashcroft,trail.
 The body is said to be in the posses sion of indians who have carefully bul- jed it and expect to get biz ransoG when the present search instituted bN oned. The Hudson Bay Indians hope to secure the body by force and get tile offered reward for themselves.
 The story of Sir Arthur Curtis death is a sad one. He had been ranching at Cosham as many another wild young Englishman of blue blood has done He got the klondike fever and with a paaty of eight started over the Ashcroft trail. They had an elah crate outfit and for few hundred miles all went we'll.
 Their troubles began before they reached Mud river. They crossed that stream on June 9th last year. The next morning Sir Arthur seemed moody All the horses had been stampeded during the night and were nowherd to be found He loaded his revolver in the tent. lit his pipe and walked into the woods. after saying goodby to Rod ger Pocock, whose turn it was to guard camp. Sir Arthur never returned.
 There are several theories regarding his death. He might have fallen into one of the sluggish branches of Mud river and lost his life. He might have been killed by indians. He might in fit of despondency, have taken his own life. The latter theory is most gener- ally believed. The Indians soon gave evidence that they were holding the body for ransom and were offered $l, GOO for it. They demanded 5000. and there was every prospect that they would not give up the body on pay ment of that amount. There has been no news from the Mud river country for some time. This news was brought by Hudson Bay Company carriers who manage to travel all over that great North land in spite of the season.

TWO DAYS FOR A WEDDING
Details of Approaching NuptiaIs of
Miss Grant and Her Prince

Newport, R I, Sept 1S--Severa1 in
teresting announcements Of the details
of the coming wedding of Miss Julia
Dent Grant and Prince Michael Canta-
cuzene of Russia were made at Beau
lieu today. 1t was originally stated that
there would be two marriage ceremon-
les. but now it is learned that there
will be two on different days, as there
Will not be time for both on one day,
as was at first expected.
It was learned today that the Russian
ceremOny-or, more properly speaking
that of the Greek chureh-wiII be per-
formed at Beaulieu on the evening OF
Sunday, September "a
The house will wear its charming
floral decora tions at the time and the
service, with its three vested priests,
should present a very enga ging pic
ture, with the richly tapestried walls of
the salon of Beauieu as a background
The service win be performed by Rev.
Father HOtOvitzky and two other
priests OF the Greek church who will
come on from New York for the oc-
casiOn-
It is perhaps interesting to note that
this service will not be a legal mar
Tiage within the meaning OF the Rhode
Island law, which specifically requires
that a resident priest or clergyman
must officiate at all weddings within
the state The service will, though,
conform to the Russian custom. it was
said at Beaulieu today and that is the
purpose of having it This service will
be strictly private, only the members
of the family witnessing it.

MARION SUED FOR $4,000.
Damages Asked For Preventing the
Erection of Building.

Marion, Ill, Sept 18.-Suit was begun
here today by NJ. W. Robertson, a
prominent property owner. against the
City of Marion for so. 600 damages al
legged to have been caused by the city
officials preventing him from erecting
a two story business building on East
Main street two years ago.
When Robertson began the cOnstruc-
ton of this building the officials claim
ed that he was violating the fire or
dinance by the use Of certain materials
and had his WOrkmen arrested and
fined So frequent We're these arrests
that all the wOrkmen quit and he could
not secure the wOrkmen to complete the
building.
The cases were appealed to the
circuit court first, and the city was
beaten, and then to the appellate court,
with the same result Now Robertson
wants damages for the rents he would
have earned and the trouble and ex-
pense he has undergone. Judge Nor
ris Of Golconda is fighting the case for
him.

BOUGHT By METCALF.
Philippine Cannon at Last Secured to
Be Used For Medals

The members of the Twentieth kan
saS Will wear souvenir badges made
from a captured cannon being brought
home by Colonel W. S. Metcalf. Colonel
Metcalf purchased the cannon with his
own private funds. It is one of the old
Moorish guns very ancient in origin and
appearance too. The use of this gun
has been made necessary by the failure.
up to the present time of the effort to
secure one OF the captured cannon
which the Twentieth took in.
Some weeks ago the governor wrote
to the colonel of the Twentieth concern
ing a captured cannon. The letter was
referred to the next officer above him
by Colonel AIetcalf and this method fol-
lowed the letter until it went back to
Washington and was from there re-
turned to Governor Stanley with the
endorsement by the secretary of war
that no arrangements have been made
to return to the United States the can
non captured from the E1lpinOS-
Referring to the correspondence con-
cerning the request for a captured can
non, Brigadier General Fred Funston,
writing to the adjutant general at
Washington, says:
I beg to be allowed to suggest that a
very appropriate gift for the regiment
to take home would be the small brass,
rifled hOWitzer captured by a detach-
nent from the Twentieth under my i'm
mediate command when we f1anked the
enemy out of their trenches at Cal
umpit April 27. This gun is of no use
whatever except as relic and am
sure that the officers of the regiment
as well as the citizens of Kansas would
greatly appreciate it as a mementO of
the campaign
When the correspondence reached the
governor he was not in the best of hu-
NOR. He was nettled at the display of
so much red tape. He at once sum-
mOned his stenOgrap pher and dictated
long letter to the secretary of war. The
governor stated that he was aware that
the arrangement had not been made to
bring the captured cannon to the Uni
ted States, but" he says: The Twen
tieth Kansas is not without reputation
in the east. What we ask is a special
courtesy and are very anxious to know
if the department will concede this
courtesy TO the state of Kansas
This letter has been forwarded with
the bundle of correspondence to the sec
retary of war and Governor Stanley
still has hopes of landing one of the old
guns.
Colonel NIetcalf has come to the res
cue and says his cannon may be melted
and made into medals for the boys if
the movement to secure one OF the guns
captured by the Twentieth fails.
