SYRACUSE, Oct. 29.-P. NJ. Heller
and q. A Holmes, Syracuse university
students, discovered cave near James
vile, this county, Friday. They crawled
into it, and, finding a passage leading
downward, they entered that also and
soon were in a second cave. Another
passage leading downward was entered,
and the boys found themselves in third
cavern. They had only a few matches
and when they tried tos retrace their
steps could not locate the opening. Aft
er searching for more than two hours
they found a small hole in the roof of the
cave. By alternately standing upon each
others shoulders they managed to dig
away the rock and crawl up into the
cave by which they entered, finally reach
ing the open air. An exploring expedi-
ton will soon be organized.

THE IDAHO MINE TROUBLES.
Bartlett Sinclair Cross-Eynmined by
Attorney Robertson.

The examination OF Bartlett Sin
clair. Governor Steunenberg's representa-
tive at Wardner during the Occur d'Alene
riots. was conducted BY Attorney Robert
son yesterday. There was nothing in the
manner OF the attorney toward the witness
which would suggest that they had nearly
come to blows during Tuesdays proceed
ings. Mr. Robertson questioned the wit
ness upon his Interpretation of the Con-
stitution and statutes of the State of I1a-
no. Mr. Sinclair stated that he did not
spend much time in examining the law.
for he received his instructions from Gov
ernor Steunenberg and did his best to fo,-
low them. presuming that the Governor
was advised by competent authority.
The witnes. was questioned as to the
Instructions which he had given to have
miners pursued across the State line into
Montana and there arrested without war
rant or requisition. He replied that he
had instructed his deputies, but not the
military authorities. to follow miners and
arrest them, even if they had to go across
the State line. He told the committee
that he himself would take the RESPONSE
bility and answer to Governor Smith, of
Montana. if the legality of this procedure
should be questioned or trouble engue.

THE BERLIN SENSATION.
Interest Here in the Marriage of the
Empress DoWnger.

The news that the Dowager Empress
OF Germany has married Count Secken-
dorff, court chamberlain during the reign
Of the Emperor Frederick III, is a sub
ject of much interest among diplomats.
but it seemed impossible last evening 10
gain particulars Of the event. as represen-
tatives of the foreign embassies and dele
cations pleaded ignorance. NJ. G. Secken-
Gorn, the younger brother OF the count
who is said to have married the Empress
Dowager. could not be found last evenin g
at his office in the New York Tribune b.
reau, and friends indicated that he was
lOath TO discuss the subject.
Lord Pauncefote the British Ambassa-
dor, was seen in regard to the story that
the Dowager Empress had suddenly remar-
ried. Il thank you for bringing me this
intelligence" said he to Times reporter.
1T is. Of course, of great interest. 1t is
the first that l have heard of it. I know
nothing at all about the facts in the case
ard l am unable to deny or confirm the
story"
In view of the fact that the Empre. $
Dowager is the frat born of Queen Vic
toria, her marriage would have almost as
much interest in England as in Berlin.
The Empress Dowager-Victoria Ade-
laide Mary Louisa as she was christened--
is the eldest daughter of Queen Victoria
anu is HOH HtdTl9 SHY years OlQ- Sle
has always been famed as the most bril-
liant and the most Intellectual princess
OF the British royal family. She was born
November q, 1910.
As child she was a small prodigy OF
learning. and at four she spoke French
as well as English. Later she mastered
German, and at the request of Prince Al
bert Edward. her father. she translated
a profound German pamphlet which he
wished to consider.
Immediately after the Crimean war
Prince Frederick William, son of the
Crown Prince of Prussia and heir pre-
sumptive to the Prusstan throne. met
young Victoria at Balmoral There he
wooed the girl who afterward became his
bride. She was still so young then that
the Queen and the Prince Consort insisted
on at least two years delay in the mar
riage. The wedding. however took place
in London on January 25 1855 Bismarck
objected to the alliance and some of the
old court party were ready to cavil at the
free and easy manners of the princess;
but Berlin received her with hearty well
come and it required persistent efforts of
foes in her own household to make her
unpopular. That end, however. was at
last accomplished.
The opposition from Bismarck continued
until the death of Frederick. shortly after
he ascended the throne in 1883. after the
death of his father. That left her son,
young Wilhelm, tie Emperor.
The Empress Dowager has had eight
children. Wilhelm. now rers3ing: Char

THE SENATE PROGRAMME.
Determined Opposition to the Ship
Subsidy and Canal Bills.

With the Porto Rican question disposed
of for the present and the Quay case out
of the way permanently Congress has set
tied down to business with a determina
ton among the leaders TO bring the ses-
sion to an end before the meeting Of the
Republican National Convention at Phil
adelphia June 10 Only two matters on
which the Republicans are united remain
undisposed of in addition to the appropria-
tion bills and other necessary routine leg
islation. These are the joint resolutions
giving the President control of the Phil
ippines and the Clark case. When they
are out of the way 1t is probable that the
road will be cleared to adjournment.
At present it is the programme Of the
Senate leaders, and to which those of the
House are not inclined to seriously OBJ
ject. 10 let the Niearaguan Canal bill and
the Ship Subsidy bill go over until rext
session and to prevent consideration Of any
legislation on which there is not unanim-
ity o. Republican opinion. This p-o-
gramme will be carried out il the friends
of the Ship Subsidy bill are not stronL
enough to defeat it. Senators Hanna and
Frye are the especial champions of the
measure to the pas sage OF which the party
is pledged, but Mr.. Allison Chairman of
the steering committee: Mr.. AIdrich, tie
tactical manager OF the Senate Republi-
cans. and other influential Senators think
it would be bad policy to press the bill at
this session.
There is less opposition to it now how
ever than before it was amended to meet
the views of Messrs. Mcmillan OF Michigan,
Nelson of Minnesota, Mcbride of Oregon.
and other members OF the Commerce Com
mittee who criticised its provisions as be-
ing drawn in the interest of the big ocean
vessel owners. These Senators are all
friendly to the bill now, but are divided
in opinion as to the wisdom of passing
it at this session. Mr.. Mcmillan, for in
stance, thinks with Messrs. Allison and
Aldrich that Congress should rest on its
record after the Philippines resolution is
disposed of and adjourn as soon as possible
AS the matter nov stands the
chances are that when the Senate steering
committee definitely arranges the pro-
gramme for the remairder of the session
it VIII not include the passage OF the Ship
Subsidy bill or the bill for the construction
of the Nicaraguan Canal, even IL the House
shall pass the Hepburn bill, which is not
impossible. as two days have been set
aDdTt for its consideration.

Im04xertly G4uae0 TIE DEATH Oh IN
worlds Greatest General.
II is : matter az History that
Napoleon was q godfmand. an m
ordinate lover Qf the good things
of the table. Ind history further
records that1his favorite dish was
fried onious: his death from cam
Ger Of stomach it is claimed also,
was probably caused from his ex-
cessive Indulgence of this fondness
for the odorous vegetable.
The onion y undoubtedly q
wholesome article of food. in fact
has many medicinal qualities OF
value. but it would be difficult to
find q more indigestible article
than fried onions, and to many
people they are simply poison. but
the onion does not stand alone in
this respect. Any article Of food
that is not thoroughly digested
becomes q source of disease and
discomfort whether it be fried on
ions OF beef steak.
The reason why any wholesome
food is not promptly digested is be-
cause the stomach lacks some inn
portant element sof digestion, some
stomachs lack peptone, others r
deficient in gastric juice, still 9TH
ers lack Hydro chloric acid.
The one thing necessary to do In
any case of poor digestion is TO
supply those elements of digestion
which the stomach lacks, and
nothing does this so thoroughly
and safely as Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets.
DR.. Richardson in writing a
thesis on treatment of dyspepsia
and indigestion. closes his remarks
by saying, "for those suffering
from acid dyspepsia, shown by
sour, watery rising5, or for fiatu-
lent dyspepsia, shown by gas on
stomach. causing heart trouble and
difficult breathing, as we'll as for
all other forms of stomach trou-
Bile, the safest treatment Is to take
one or two of Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets after each meal. ! advise
them because they contain no
harmful drugs, but are composed
of valuable digestives. which act
promptly upon the food eaten. |
never knew a case of indigestion or
even chronic dyspepsia which Stu
arts Tablets would not reach"
Cheap cathartic medicines claim
ing to cure dyspepsia and indiges-
ton can have no effect whatever
in actively digesting the food and
to call any cathartic medicine a
cure for indigestion is a misno-
mel.
Every druggist in the United
States and Canada sells Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets, and they are
not only the safest and most suc
~cessful, but the most scientific of
any treatment for indigestion and
stomach troubles.

A Number OF People Dipped By q
very Neat Gold Brick Gnme.
There is a very interesting rumor to
the effect that perhaps a hundred peo-
ple living in this city and vicinity have
been made the dupe of a slick swindler.
and the most interesting part about the
whole story is that it - the truth.
Early in the fall a man engaged In the
auction business, selling secondhand
household goods on a percentage. People
who had any house furnishings. or in
fact any article TO sell. took these goods
to the warehouse where this a%uctioneer
did business The a%uctioneer then gave a
receipt for the goods received and en-
tered into an agreement to sell the
goods at auction for ten percent OF the
amount the article brought.
Since the first CT the year the auc-
ticneer has not been seen in this city
and a number of people who have call
ed to receive the money for the sale OF
their goods have awoke to the fact
that they have been duped- The AUG
tineer left a store room full OF worth
less articles.
