Another north Idaho lie has been
exploded. 1t was charged that
dying miners in the Shoshone
county prison were denied the con
ISOLATION OF religion in their last
hours. The clergymen in that
county brand the story as false.
Father Becker. priest, in an inter-
view states that no clergyman was
ever denied admIttance to the pris-
on or bull pen, as it has been call
ed. These fabrications circulated
by friends of the dynamiters for the
purpose of creating public SYM
pathy are one by one being pune
tured. Truth is gradually gaining
the ascendency. Its searchlight
has been turned onto Shoshone

latest offer comes from Southern
California over the signatures OF

this offer is somewhat interesting.

DR.. Daly's Examination Regarding AL
legged Use of Chemicals Postponed.
Washington, Feb. 23.-Yesterday's
proceedings of the court of inquiry in
vestigating the beef controversy develop
ed little that was new. The testimony,
with the exception of that Of DR.. DAILY,
surgeon OH the staff Of General Miles
during the war, and of Colonel Wood
ruff, assistant commissary general, was
generally in line with that of Tuesday.
The canned roast beef was generally
condemned as unsatisfactory, while the
refrigerated beef was commended, the
chief complaint being that it often de-
composed On route to camp. The testi-
mony of representatives of the subsist-
encc department was begun, that Of
Colonel Woodruff, assistant commissary
general. being the most notable. He
purchased more than 100000 pounds Of
canned roast beef. and told of the meth
cd Of purchase and the reasons that
prompted 1t. He took issue with Gen
eral Miles contention that beef on the
hoof was the usual source of fresh meat
supply to the army.
DIR. DAILY, who charged before the war
commission that refrigerated beef at
Chickamauga, Jacksonville, Tampa and
in Porto Rico had been treated chemical
ly, was not examined in regard to the
charge, Colonel Davis announcing that
the contractors who were attacked were
entitled to be notified of the examination
upon this point that they might have
ample time in which to appear should
they desire to do so. The law required
this, he said. Accordingly DR.. DAILY was
excused after partial examination, and
will be recalled later

Detroit. Feb. 23.--"It has been a diff

field. The Stars and Stripes are planted
tonight in place where they never
have been before on Washington's birth
day. They have never been taken down

Such was the characteristic utterance
of General Russell A. Ager, secretary
of war, on assuming the function OF
POSTMASTER last night at the 18th annual
banquet of the Michigan club. The sec,
retary was introduced by Brigadier Gen.
eral Henry NJ. Duliicld, president Of the
club. When the POSTMASTER arose he
was greeted with enthusiastic cheers
from upwards of 800 Republicans of
Michigan who sat at the banquet table
and from the crowd in the galleries. The
inquiry as to What's the matter with
Alger?' was repeatedly answered fa-
vorably, and finally three systematic
cheers were given.
The other speakers were Governor Pin
gree. Secretary of Agriculture Wilson.
Hon. Frank o. Lowden Of Chicago and
Frank s. Monett attorney general Of
Ohio. Governor Pingree warned the
Republican party against the danger of
fostering trusts.

ANOTHER BRAVE MARINE.
Distinguished Himself by SuppressinG

Distinguished Himself by Suppressing
Fire at Brooklyn Navy Yard.
Washington, Feb. 23.-Another marine
has distinguished himself by his cool
ness and courage, according to report
transmitted to the navy department, and
although his name is not yet known to
the department doubtless it will be made
known soon, for an officer who was cog
infant of his services to the government
suggested that he be publicly rewarded.
There was fire in the New York navy
yard last Sunday night following the big
fire which destroyed the machine shop
in that yard. The fact was reported to
the navy department by Lieutcant Gut
Ter, of the Newark, then lying up at the
yard. He says that he was passing
down the yard about midnight with n
guest. when he was told that the Octagon
building, used as pay Office, was on fire.
The officer, with his friend proceeded in
double quick time to the scene. A watch
man was found, helpless and in ignorance
of the location of the keys. A marine on
sentry duty had broken through win
dow, climbed in and turned on the cleo
t,tc !isii1t<g just as Lieutenant Cutler mr.
rived. The marine was driven back
again by the dense smoke and was com
PEELED to come out. Lieutenant Cutler
instructed the man to take night stick
and break another window directly
above the floor. This was done, and the
four men began to gather snow and
shovel it through the window. The ma
rine, meanwhile, had climbed back, and
in the midst of the smoke was disposing
of the snow upon the flames inside
where it would do the most good. In
70 end the fire was quenchcd, and the
l"ntenant thinks that the marines GER
,!"rH should be recognized.

Marching on the Nile with Largel,

Cairo. Feb. 23.-Thc disquieting news
has been received here that the khalifa
at the head of greatly augmented forces
Is marching on the Nile. The khalfa
has been fercely raiding the Arabs along
the route he is following, and the latter
have become panic stricken.
Major Macdonald, the head Of the
British expedition which has been ex.
ploring east Africa has started for On
durman, and Major Hunter, the recently
appointed governor of Omdurman. and
other British officers on furlough have
been recalled.
London. Feb. 23.-The Daily News
publishes the following dispatch from
Cairo "The khplifu Is advancing upon
Omdurman with between $4,000 and 90
900 men. Preparations are urgently pro-
cceding to meet him"
A footnote to the dispatch says: "Thc
facts that Colonel Kitchencr's scouts
came in touch with the khalifa, strongly
entrenched with 10000 men, and the
British officer having only a small force
he found it necessary to retire on Om-
durman. This retirement the khalifa re-
garded as Il sign Of weakness, and it led
him to rally his forces to the advance.

the evidence before the court not only
proves Drcyfus innocent, but that the
