enemy. The train guard met a native
runner returning from Ladysmith who
said that party of Beers had torn up

in great numbers in the vicinity.
They brought a big gun down from

been evacuated. Then they entered

THE MAKING OF THGRITe
Declared 10 Be Inc Safest OF HIoh
Explosives

Washington, Nov. 9.-The govern
ment has determined to begin the
manufacture of the powerful explosive.
thorite. at Sandy Hook. instead of the
Philippines, as was first contemplated.
To that end the order recently issued
Philippines has been Cancelled. and pre-
parations are being made to enlarge
the buildings at Sandy Hook and to
begin work at an early doy on this
secret agency of destruction, of which
so much is expected and already dem
onstrated.
The conclusion to locate at Sandy
Hook was reached after the officials
became convinced that thorite had
passed beyond the experimental stage,
and combined elements of safety in
enemy such as no other explosive has
combined. The government tests have
shown that it could not be ignited by
fire. as it can be heated over a fire, and
W III not tAplOue NnSn d llSnIeO cigar
or a hot iron is put into it. The shock
of discharge is also without effect on
it, and the tests demonstrated to tha
ordnance experts that absolutely no
danger attended the loading of guns
with thorite. whereas other explosives
such as gun-cotton, are handled at the
risk of life. Difficulty was experienced
in finding a time-fuse which would set
off the thorite at the proper time, but
the experts have now overcome that
point.
The uses to be made of thorite are
mainly as the bursting charge of large
projectiles. Its destructiveness is said
to be very great, and quite equal to
gun-cotton. 1t is not expected that it
will be used as a substitute for gun
powder in small arm ammunition, or
with shrapnel, as it seems best adapted
to give terrific effect to the bursting of
a large projectile.

NEGRO EXHIBIT AT PARIS
Thomas Galloway Appointed a
Special Commissioner.

Washington, Nov. 9.-Thomas J. Cal
loway, who has just been appointed
by Commissioned General Peck a spec
ial commissioner to the Paris exposi-
ton for the purpose of preparing and
managing a negro exhibit, has already
begun his work and will start in few
days upon a tour of collection of the
exhibits. He has given out the follow
ing outline of the plans:
The negro exhibit, as its name indi-
Gates, is to show as far as possible the
actual status of the colored people as
shown in their homes, schools, farms,
stores, churches, professions and other
pursuits. The amount of space is linn
tied, but sufficient to prove the negro's
value as laborer. a producer, citizen.
By contrasting views of mud chimney
cabins with well appointed homes,
crude log school houses, with commo-
dious school buildings, etc, the past
and present conditions of the race will
be shown in a way to remove all doubt
of the rapid progress being made. As
most of Europe IS now engaged in At
rican colonization, it is very important
that these countries find hopeful view,
of racial adjustment, and no better
way is known than through such an
exhibit. President Mckinley has man.
ifested a strong personal interest in
this exhibit, and scores of letters from
leading colored men and women all
over the country reveal a deep en-
thusiasm that is very gratifying.

THE WEDDING TOUR.

New York, Nov. 9.-Admiral and Mrs.
Dewey arrived in New York tonight
from Washington. They were driven
direct from the West Twenty-third
street ferry to the Waldorf Astoria,
where they are the guests of Mr.. Boldt.
the proprietor of that hotel. The ad-
miral and his bride did not register.
The admiral and Mrs. Dewey got
away from Washington without at
tracing any attention. They came to
New York in an ordinary chair car.
Passengers who came over, Secretary
Root among them, said that the ad
miral and his bride were not generally
recognized by the other passengers un
til after Philadelphia had been passed.
Then there was a general desire on the
part of everybody on the train to see
them. People bought chair car tickets
for the purpose of being in the same
car, and others who did not get chairs
walked through the car for the purpose
of seeing the bride and groom
Mrs. Dewey was the widow of Cen
eral w. B. Hazen, chief signal officer
of the army. who died twelve years
ago. Her only son died about eighteen
months ago from a fall from his horse,
and she is still wearing mourning for
him. The admirars first wife was a
daughter of a former governor of Yer
mont, and died in 1872. He has one
son, who is in business in New York.
Mrs. Hazen is about 45 years of age
and has long been a prominent figure
in Washington society. AS the wife of
the highest ranking officer of the navy
Mrs. Dewey will rank in precedence
next to the wife of the vice-president,
and her large fortune and the admiral's
liberal salary will enable them to en-
tertain in the most liberal manner, and
as both are fond of society, the ad-
miraIs new residence is expected to be
the scene of many brilliant events dur
ing the coming season. Mrs. Hazen's
income is about twice that of the ad-

UNSATISFACTORY RETURNS.

Lexington, KY, Nov. 9.-Election re-
turns as they are now coming in,
garbled and accompanied by all sorts
of rumors, are very unsatisfactory Re
publican committeeman are as firm as
ever in their claims of decided victory
at the ballot box, but evidence accumu-
lates that the Goebelites are deter
mined to win by fair means or foul. Ex-
Senator Blackburn, whose political fu-
ture hangs on the result, is making all
sorts of wild claims and lurid predic-
tions. Turned down by the better ele-
ment of his party, he has made the
fight of his life by allying himself with
the Goebel faction in the hope that the
success of the ticket will again place
him in a commanding position. The
Goebel election law seemingly framed
for just such an emergency. opens the
door to fraud on the part of election
officers if they are unscruplous enough
to take advantage of it. As most OF
the election officers are GoebeI ap-
pointees and Goebel henchmen, there is
no doubt but they will make the most
of their opportunity. Unless the Tay-
lor majority is overwhelming it will be
reduced to minimum, perhaps wiped
out entirely in the official count. Both
Goebel and Blackburn have staked
their all on the result and to them, in
this vital crisis, great men though they
are acknowledged to be, any means will
justify the end. 1t is a duel of Trojans
and politically speaking the fight will
be to the death.

government to encourage and aid, but
not to control, the educational instru-
mentalities of the county.

fore brought before congress to provide
for the incorporation of a national
university in Washington commends
itself to this committee as a practical
measure.
Third-The government is not called
upon to maintain at the capital a uni
versity in the ordinary sense of that
term.
Fourth-That subcommittee be re-
quested to prepare for consideration

RESPECT THE BoERs.

CapetOwn, Nov. 9.-No doubt the feel
ing that is prevalent of admiration for
the courage of the Beers during the
recent fighting is good augury for the
future peaceful settlement of the trou-
bic. The Boer prisoners on the British
cruiser Penelope pay a high tribute to
the British artillery. Reports from
Kimberley seem to indicate that the in
vesting force has been greatly weak
ened for the purpose of sending de-
tachments to the eastern and southern
borders. The threatened widespread
invasion of Cape Colony has not mater
ialized. Doubtless the swollen river

RURAL FREE DELIVERY
Agent Hnnin Reports fhe Routes

Washington, Nov. 9.-In the report
of the first assistant postmaster gen

the report of Special Agent William E.

After consultation with Senator
Rawlins. Postmaster Thomas and 9TH
ers familiar with the state. regarding
localities best fitted for the require
ments of the rural system, 1 spent some
time mapping positions where sufficient
density of defining population in need
of such facilities could be found. The
valley of Jordan, south of Salt Lake,
was finally decided upon as the most
eligible location for inaugurating rural
free delivery in Utah, and Murray,
nine miles south of Salt Lake, was
fixed upon as the postOffice from which
to start the first route in Utah. The
entire valley of the Jordan north and
south of Salt Lake City is an area of
small holdings, with generally excel
lent roads and in the main with good
postal facilities.
The route finally chosen seemed to
meet the requirements of the depart
ment better than half a dozen others
carfully inspected. Rural free deliv-
cry was established August 10. The
establishment of this initial route in
Utah has been followed by persistent
entreaties for the same class of service

The monument is the work of Sculp-
tor George Julian Zolnay, a graduate of
the Imperial Academy of Fine Arts
The design of the monument is at once
artistic and beautiful. The pose is ad-
mirable, and there is strength and
spirit in its that gives it life. 1t repre-
sents a seated angel, and is carved in
Carrara marble of the finest quality.
The statue pedestal is about two and a
half feet high, three and a half feet
wide, and two and a half feet deep.
Standing near by the beautiful mem
orial of his daughter is the new statue
of jefferson Davis. This statue, which
is of bronze, is also the work of Mr..
Zolnay. The statue was ordered by
Mrs. Davis to be placed over her hus-
bands grave. 1t is of life size and
represents the confederate president
standing with his right arm resting on
his side and his left hand hanging by
his side and holding a felt hat. The
figure is represented as wearing the
very clothes in which Mr.. Davis was
dressed when captured by a detach-
ment of Michigan cavalry in the noun
tains of Alabama.
The site of the monuments is one of
the most beautiful spots in Virginia,
lying upon a level plain at the head of
