LATE NEWS IN BRIEF.

The United States gunboat Whining
toE arrived at Para, Brazil, March II,
and has been warmly received in Off
cial, social and commercial circles.
Governor Gage of California has
signed the Richard bill, which legalizes
prize fighting contests up to twenty
rounds. Under this bill, duly incor-
porated clubs can promote contests after
paying an annual license, the amount
of which is to be fixed by the county
supervisors.
Capt. Chas E. Clark, who command
ed the battleship Oregon Oh her wcnder-
full run from San Francisco to the West
Indies, and in the engagement with
Cervera's squadron, has been assigned
to duty as captain Of the League Island
navy yard, near Philadelphia. He has
been on sick leave, but reported for
duty at League Island last week.
It is generally believed an under
standing has been reached between the
United States and Germany which is
likely to bring about an amicable and
satisfactory solution of the whole Sa-
moan question. 1t is understood that
while the United States and Great Bri-
tain have steadily declined to accept
Germany's two previous propositions
new one has been accepted by all three
powers.
It is said at the war department that
General Otis will not make campaign
during the rainy season nor is it be-
lieved he will at present chase the Fill
pinos into the mountain fastnesses Of
Luzon. Officials consider it evident
that all the fight that was in Agui-
naldo has been whipped out Of him and
he cannot hold his Filipino army to-
gether much longer. If Otis SO advises,
the war department. will approve ces-
sation of active hostilities when little
can be accomplished save chasing the
Filipinos without definite results.
The forthcoming monthly statement
of the treasury shows exceptionally
heavy receipts and material decrease
in the expenditures for the month of
March. The receipts from customs will
amount to about 82l 900, 900; from in
ternal revenue over $22, 900, 900, and
from miscellaneous sources $13, 400, 900.
OF this amount $11. .79S, 900 was paid
into the treasury in payment for notes
given the government in part settlement
for the debt of the Central Pacific rail-
road. The disbursements during March
amounted to $42,99S,571, leaving al
surplus for the month of $l4,031, ,653,
or surplus Of $2,2S3. 673, leaving the
Central Pacific payment cut Of the ac-
count.

q. G. williams Returns from Ten
Months Trip.
Fl. G.. Williams of this city, who
went to the Klondike ten months ago
with the North American Transportation
and Trading company returned home
Sunday morning. He came direct from
Dawson City, being some thirty mine
days on the road, coming out over the
ice on sleds and afoot. He took in 215
head of beef cattle for the Dawson mar
ket, which were disposed of at good
figures, hut Mr.. Williams says he has
had enough Of the Klondike and is glad
to be in Billings. He did not invest
in mining and says that as far as he is
concerned he is willing to give any Of
his friends who desire. to visit the
frozen north quit-claim deed to the
entire country.

mittee has decided to take $50 feet of
the west portion Of the west railroad
park and set the building in the center
of the allotted space. The lot will be
filled even with the depot platform and
work will be commenced just as soon
as the plans submitted to Mr. Billings
approved. Mr.. Haire's description Of
his plan of the building is as follows:
'sThe sketches submitted by me to
the Library committee contemplate a
building sixty feet front and forty y-eight
feet deep, built entirely Of native sand
stone. The basement to be twelve feet
in height and almost entirely above
ground, SO as to furnish abundant light.
This basement to contain the heating
plant and fuel room in the rear and the
main part to be used as a gymnasium.
The first principal floor will be the IL
brary and the ceiling will be fifteen
feet high and arched in center. The
arrangement of this floor has been made
in accordance with the most advanced
ideas of public library administration.
Splendid light is furnished by the
large windows grouped on the ends and
rear, and necessary toilet accommoda-
tions are provided.
"As to the exterior of the building
the Italian classic has been followed
and simplicity combined with quiet
elegance has been studied. Above the
water table the stone ashlar facing is
smooth cut and all the columns, arches
and moulded work are clean cut. The
base will be Of granite. eighteen inches
high entirely around the building,
forming damp course for the protec-
tion Of the sandstone from moisture.
The cornice will be of copper and the
roof Of Spanish tile, thus giving to the
exterior a permanent and durable char
acter. The interior finish will be Of
oak and the floors Of maple. It is pro-
posed to heat the building with hot
water plant.
''The plans and this description, I
believe, will cover building suitable
for the purpose for which it was in
tended. convenient for its interior use
and expressive i'll its exterior of the
purpose for which it is erected.
In the entrance vestibule shonld be
placed a memorial tablet engraved
with the name of the library and the
purpose for which it was erected, with
such other information as may be suita-
BILE.
II wonld recommend that the lot on
which the building is to be erected
shall be graded SO that the building
shall stand higher than the street and
at least as high as the depot platform.
The main floor will be reached by a
wide flight of stone steps. y
