Married Three Years to a Woman
Who Thereby May Lose a Fortune
A dispatch from San Francisco announces
that Rev. Joseph P. Mcintyre, who was
chaplain on the battle ship Oregon when
the Spanish-American war began and who
lost his position because of remarks about
his superior officers, was married In Pasa-
dena nearly three years ago, although until
now the world had not the slightest hint
of 1t.
Since his forced retirement from the navy
In August, 1898, Mr.. Mcintyre has lived in
San Francisco with his wife, who, how
ever, was known to her neighbors and
acquaintances as Mrs. Gordon.
Mrs. Mcintyre gives this reason for keep

not applied for charge since leaving the
navy.

future will be conducted similarly to that
of the regular army. There will be schools
of instruction during the drill season for
officers, commissioned officers and adj
vanced privates. A record, it Is provided,
shall be kept of such schools, for which the
senior officer shall be responsible, and
which shall be examined by the inspector at
each inspection. There will be more out
door drills, with actual target practice and
loaded shells. These drills will include
range-finding, ammunition supply and fire
discipline, in both elementary practice and
battery service In addition, there will be
more attention paid to the care Of horses

APPLICATIONS FOR NEW TWOS.
Already They Amount in Value tc
100000, 900.

Applications for the new per cent bonds
under the refunding law have reached
sos. s60, 800. Results of this character with
in one week after the approval of the new
law are regarded at the Treasury Depart
ment conclusive proof of the success of
the refunding project. The new cases re-
ceived at the treasury yesterday amounted
to about SIS, 600, and at this rate an
other week will double the amount. Most
of the applications for the exchange of the
Old bonds for the new come from national
banks having bonds pledged to secure cir
culation public deposits. The bank cases
represent $99, 249. $50 of the bonds received,
but $6,610,S50 of bonds owned by private
and state banks and individuals have reach
ed the treasury.
The effort is being made to point out that
the refunding is not compulsory and that
any holder of the old bonds Is entitled to
draw interest upon them at the old rates
until the various dates of their maturity
in 1894, 1907 and 1903. A considerable num-
Der of protests is being received from citi-
zens in the south and west against being
compelled to exchange their bonds. They
are being promptly notified that there is
no obligation to make the exchange, but
that it is an offer on the part OF the. gov
eminent. to be taken advantage of or not
as the preference and business interests of
the bondho!ders suggest.
The classification of bonds received by
the treasurer indicates that Thesis are be-

cases settled amount to $5,SS3. $50 out of a
total outstanding of $19S, T9l 40; the As
settled amount to $8.015. 200 out of $545. 345.-
200 outstanding; and the Us settled
amount to 1892, 700 out Of sos. OO9,-
700 outstanding. These proportions may be
changed at a later date. and 1t is expected
that the SIS will be largely presented for
exchange in view of the possible withdraw
al within few weeks OF. the offer to ex-
change them at the maximum rate named
in the new law. Treasurer Roberts has thus
ferences between the par value and the
present worth of the old bonds to the
amount of s1,s1s.446. of which 1,156 479
was drawn Wednesday. The total payments

AMENDMENTS DEFEATED,
Discussing the Rritish Treaty in Sen.
ate Executive Sessian


In the executive session of the Senate yes
terday afternoon two efforts to amend the
treaty between the United States and Great
Britain relative to the disposition of estates
Were defeated by very decisive votes One
OF the amendments offered was to strike
out section of the agreement extending
the same privileges to each of the two ma
tons In the matter of acquiring or holding
property that may be extended TO any other
nations The motion to amend was lost II
to 20.
The other proposed amendment related to
the striking out of the provision authorizing
the Queen of Great Britain or the President
of the United States to extend the provI-
sions of the treaty to the dependencies of
the two countries. This also was lost on a
vote of about the same proportions as the
other.
The principal speeches in support of the
amendments and in opposition to the spirit
of the treaty We're made by Senators Jones
of Arkansas. Turner. Pettigrew and SulIi-
van They were replied to by the republic
can members of the committee on foreign
relations. The debate entirely legal
in its scope. The treaty will be taken up
again this afternoon at the conclusion of the
legislative session of the Senate.

Speaker Henderson to discuss the outlook
for legislation on the eight-hour bill. the
bill against convict-made goods, and that
limiting the issuance of injunctions nv

members of the delegation preferred to
place the injunction bill foremost, ii was
the final view of Mr.. Gompers and all his
associates that the eight-hour measure
should be first to receive attention from
Congress. This led Speaker Henderson tn
express his personal views on the eight
hour question. He said he had always he

Histories of England were dropped from
the lists of supplementary reading for the
public schools at the meeting of the board
of education of Chicago last night Books
were adopted for all grades at a cost of
thousands of dollars, but none of the hlc-
tories will contain a mention of England
except as an incident in connection with the
war of independence. For three months
John 7. Heating, who is the national pres.-
dent of the Ancient Order of Hiberntan ms.

England, which, he declared, were pl eiu-

The district superin tendent decided to

American history will be included in the

Important Bankruptcy Precedent

A decision rendered in the United States
court at Memphis yesterday by Judge Ham
mond establishes an important precedent in
bankruptcy proceedings. The important
principle emphasized by Judge Hammond's
decision is that merchant, when he sells
his stock as whole, must apply the pro-
ceeds to the satisfaction of his creditors
claims, and that it is as much against the
bankruptcy law to conceal or transfer
money with view to defeating creditors
as it is to hide or transfer any other form
Of property.

The ANTIQUITY of Agriculture.

The origin of agriculture is lost in
the mists of antiquity. We know that
in Neolithic times in Europe eight
kinds of cereals were cultivated, be-
sides fax. peas, peoples. apples,
pears, bullace plums. etc, at the same
time various animals were domesti-
Gated. Among these were horses,
short horned oxen, horned sheep.
goats, two breeds of pigs and dogs.
Professor w. Boyd Dawkins says that
evidence goes to show that these ami
mails were not domesticated in Eu-
rope, but probably in the central pla-
teau of Asia. He also thinks that
agriculture arose in the south and east
of Europe and spread gradually to
the centre, north and west. A hunt
ing population is often very averse TO
even the slight amount of work that
agriculture requires in a tropical
country. The same holds good. as a
rule, for pastoral communities. In
all cases a powerful constraint is
necessary to force these peoples into
uncongenial employment. Fate is
stronger than will, and at various
periods, in different clinses. hunters
and herders have been forced to till
the soil.-Professor A. G. MADDEN, in
Knowledge.
