Arrived In OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES Talk on
South African Affairs.
LONDON, April Cecil Rhodes ar
rived at Southampton and came to Lon
don on landing. He observed reticence
on South African affairs, especially as
to his alleged differences with Colonel
Kekewich at Kimberley.

rival he was surrounded by a bodyguard
composed of Messrs. Belt, Harris,
Rawkesley and Rochefort Mcguire and
other henchmen. who hurried him from

CENSUS OF LIVE STOCK.
Director Merriam Even Wants the Nam
Der In Cities and villages
Reported t. Him.

WASHINGTON, April THE new law
of congress which permits the director
OF the census to enumerate all the live
stock found in cities, villages, lumber
and mining camps and elsewhere off the
farm and range, promises to provide, for
the first time, an adequate basis for es-
timating the supply Of stock on hand at
a given time, the probable natural in
crease in that supply under normal con-
ditions and the probable condition Of
future markets.
In reports to the agricultural depart
ment swine, goats, asses and bnrros arc
omitted. OF course, the live stock to be
found III cities and villages are also
omitted, because never enumerated; but
all~will be comprehended in the twelfth
census returns, which will swell the to-
tai wealth represented in this class of
property to perhaps 50, 900, 000, 000-an
amount so stupendous that Director
Merriam feels he was fully warranted
in making extra preparations, not only
for a complete enumeration, but an ade-
quate classification of domestic limals.

WASHINGTON, April 1.-THE house,

of two amendments, one providing for
a resident commissioner instead of a

claring that nothing in the act should
be interpreted as a pledge of statehood.

Nose Coleman Kills Will Laid in

Another murder has occurred in
Terrell county.
Saturday night at Graves Station
Nose Coleman and another negro, Will
Ladd, became engaged in a difficulty
in which the former inflicted a blow
on the head of Ladd which resulted in
his death.
1t is not known what led to the dis
pute between the two negroes, and it
seems that there were very few eye
witnesses to the ARRAY. After some
words had been passed between them
Coleman seized board, which lay
near, and hit a terrible blow upon the
head of Ladd, whose skull was frac-
tured by the lick. The difficulty oc-

store, and the negro was carried into
it after he had been struck down.

the wound would necessarily prove
fatal, but the victim fingered until a
late hour Sunday night.
Coroner Arnett held an inquest Mon
day, and the jury declared the crime
to be murder.
Coleman has not been seen since an
early hour Sunday morning and there
is no clue as to his whereabouts. Ev-
cry effort will be made, however, by
Sheriff Christie to capture him.
