HUNGRY MAFEKING.
Garrison Can Hold Out for Two Months
Longer.


LONDON, May "A dispatch to the
Times from Mafeking, dated April 80,
says:
"A sidelight is thrown upon the hun
CRY condition of the garrison by the
fact that the united efforts of the whites
and natives have recently been devoted
to catching a swarm of locusts which
passed over the town."
Lady Sarah Wilson, telegraphing
from Mafeking on April 49, says
1.-THE investment is so close that no
runners have entered or issued for ten
days There was a terrific lombard
ment on April II, but, with the eXcep-
ton of destroying some houses, it was
harmless. The Beers then made a de-
termined attack on the Southwestern
forts, which were successfully repulsed.
THE Beers have formed a new laager
on the south. Many horses are dying
of horse sickness. Trees are being cut
down for fuel.
The garrison is now eating the am
bulance oxen, reserVing the mules until
the last. The daily ration is now six
ounces of gritty oatbread, a pound of
bull beef and a quart of skilly.''
A native runner got through from
Mafeking to Ootsi, siXty-onc miles
north, on April %, with dispatches for
nearly all the London dailies. That to
the Morning Post says: I'VE can stick
it out for two months or more. Nobody
minds"
Colonel Plumer, who appears to have
been reinforced lately by more Rhode
slams, seems to be advancing.

TO IMPROVE CANE.

PETALUMA, April 2S,-Luther Bur-
bank, the noted Sonoma county hOrti-
culturist, Is just now directing his eT-
forts in the experimental line to the
production of a better sugar cane. A
few days ago he received a consignment
of seed of the varieties Of blue and yell
low sugar cane from Central America,
which will be planted on his farm, and
the advantages of the different grades
combiner to produce one more satisfac-
tory.
Mr.. Burbank is also experimenting
with Hawaiian sugar cane and with
Island coffee with good results. He has
a large plot planted in each.

AT PAGO PAGO.
Samoans Are Flocking to the American
Island.

Island.
WASHINGTON, April 30.-News has
reached here that the London Mission
School has removed from Malua, on the
German island of Upolu, to the Ameri-
can island of Tutuila, taking up its To-
cation on the shores of Page Page bay.
This is the largest educational institu-
ton in the Samoan group and is a great
force with the natives. 1t was also re-
ported that many of the Samoans on
Upolu are docking to the American
island, while others are going to the
British islands of Fiji and Tonga.
The approaching completion of the
American naval cOaling station in Page
Page harbor, the inclusion by the
United States in the general mail con-
tracts of a provision for stopping
steamers at Pago Page en- route be-
tween San Francisco and New Zealand,
and finally, the construction by the Pa
cifc Steamship line, plying on that
route, of larger vessels than those now
employed, which probably will be una
BILE to enter the harbor at Apia, are d
basis of representations to the States
Department of the future predominance
of Page Pago over all the ports of the
Samoan group.

It is gradually coming out stronger
that the work of John t. McGraw at
the Parkersburg convention is very dis
tasteful to such old leaders OF the
Democracy as ex-senators Camden and
Davis. The correspondent Of tht Pitts
burgh Dispatch emphasizes this fact by
a statement that Davis, Camden and
others had been urging more conserv-
alive platform than the one that was
adopted reaGirmlng the Chicago plat
form. Senator Davis wanted the Ian
guage Of the constitution Incorporated
In the platform regarding thr use of
both metals, and Senator Camden also
expressed himself for a conservative
platform.
The hopes Of these men were dashed
to the ground when McGraw began to
dominate the convention. AS the Tay-
lor county statesman had already
saved to West Virginia a republican
form of government" he was bound to
round out his distinguished career by
committing the West Virginia Demo-
crazy unreservedly to the man whose
accredited representative he was. on
the whole, McGraw is to be commended
for refusing to deal in the subtertuges
OF, the Maryland and New York Demo-
cracy, who endorsed Bryan, but refused
to commit themselves to what that man
stands for. Even without the reaftirm-
auon Of the Chicago platform Bryan
stands for Organism ,aad that is suffi-
cient. West virgiAIa Democrats are
pledged to him tightly enough, and Nc
Graw's triumph will work the alienation
OF those who refused to swallow the
doctrines of the Nebraskan In 1895.

Organized Gangs of Gamblers and
Card-sharps Now Working the
Liners.
London Mail: A well-organIzed and
dangerous gang of card sharpers have
recently infested the great steamships
plying between the principal British
ports and New York.
They travel by twos and threes, and
manage to split up their organization in
such fashion that the same two or
three are seldom seen in the same ship
more than once or twice In the season.
Their operations are confined mainly

after the first five or six hours out, ana
soon the game goes meTrily on with
from two to three verdant American
and English travellers with more money
than sense as victims OF the profea-
sIonal organization.
These travelling card sharpers make
little effort at concealment Of their
business. though, as matter OF form,
they profess to be coffee merchants,
cattle ranchers, iron masters, or bank
ers as the case may be. The officials
OF the steamships are apparently pow
erless to put an end to their practices,
and state that so long as the pasSen-
gers do not complain they cannot inter-
fere.
Here and there one sees vlgllant
purser mailing up on the notice board
warming against professional card
players, but this Is seldom. II ever
needed. The steamship companies
themselves profess to be ignorant of the
proceedings on board their ships, and
state that they do everything In their
power to protect their passengers
against robbery, but old travellers state
that the evil is becoming worse and

CURIOUS WAR RELIC.
The soldiers scythe Still Hangs .,
the Tree.

S6eeANN-
the Tree.
Springfield Republican: Thlrty1eight
years ago young Augustus Bliss. Of
warwick, quit cutting brush on his
fathers farm. hung his scythe on a pine
tree and went off to war. The soldier
boy never came back, and the scythe
has never been taken down from the
tree where he hung 1t, but has become
imbedded in the growing pine until 1t is
fixture. This pathetic reminder of the
great civil struggle is familiar sight
to members Of the sheomet club, of this
city, as the tree stands near the clubs
comfortable quarters IN BlissvIile. a
hamlet Just across the North Orange
line into Warwick. When young Aug
ustus Bliss left home and parents to
fight his country's battles, Bllsvllle
was a busy center Of small industries
traces Of which remain to tell the
story Of the shifting Of the scene OF
manufacturing from the small country
hamlet to large centers. The tree has
witnessed all these changes, has seen
the mill standing near slowly falling In
to decay, the population changing, but
stlll the Rcythe hangs there. summer
and winter, mute testimonial to the
devotion to duty that animated young
Bliss.
His father, Milton Bliss, was engaged
In building the dam standing by, and
sent his son to cut some brlers that
were in the way Of stone that were
needed. After the briers were cut the
acythe was hung on n small pine tree
standing near, probably without
thought of how long 1t would remain
there. In a day or two Augustus Bliss
went to the front, having enlisted FOR
q thrae-yeRrs term Of service In the
army some time previous. The young
soldier never came back. He was but
eighteen years old when he enlisted
August 4, 1862, in Company II, Thirty
sixth Massachusetts regiment. While
with his regiment in the south he was
overtaken by fatal Illness, and he
died in an army hospital at Mildale,
Miss. The circumstances OF his con-
tracing disease were very sad. He
had gone to get water for his COM
rades, and his company had orders to
march while he was gone. He tried to
overtake them. and the overeXertlon
was more than he could stand, and he
was taken Ill with fever before he had
been In battle. He was not brought
home for burial, but his name Is on the
roll Of honor on the soldiers monument
at Orange.
In all these years no one has med
died with the scythe. 1t has hung there
q symbol and visible reminder to his
father Of his sons devotion to duty. AS
the tree grew the scythe has become
imbedded In the wood until Il is q part
Of the tree. The snath, which has been
forced off the scythe by the growing
tree, is supported in its original position
by q small framework. This wood
work Of the tholes has yielded to tho
action OF the elements and fallen away.
Around the tree, which is probably a
little over a foot in diameter at Its base,
has been erected a railing.

The movement on foot to have the
national Democratic headquarters
located at Columbus, Ohio. shows the
desperate character OF the Democratic
cause this year. 1t is claimed that the
Democrats should carry the war into

county in Ohio. 1t is also argued that
the border states of Indiana, Kentucky
and West Virginia are the doubtful ones
that may decide the result and that
they are easily reached from Columbus.
Thus we may expect another invasion
of the enemy's country" ana the in
