PUBLIC BUILDING.

The original appropriation
for the Public Building here was
$4,000. In view Of the fact that
the cost OF building material las
increased, the Treasury Depart
ment has asked Congress to in
crease it to 100000 for an ordi
nary structure and to $33, 900 if
it shall be decided 10 construct
a hreproof building. tits stated
that the site selected is satisfac
tory to the Government and that
the United States District At
torney will be instructed to com
mence condemnation proceeds
ings to acquire title. The meth =
Cd of procedure will be the ap>
polntment Of a commission or
jury by Judge Purnell to assess
damages of the property. The
amount assessed will be paid by
the Government and the money
will be held until it is settled to
whom it is to be paid. If there
is any further contest it will be
over the money instead of the
real estate. The procedure will
enable the Government to begin
work on the erection Of the pub
lie building -Car0Llnian.

MARCH AND THE LION
Something Better than the OLD

The saying about the lion
and the lamb in March often
proves false, but there is another
and a better one which is liter
ally true. When March comes
in and finds you taking Hood S
Sarsapariila TO purify, enrich
and vitallze your blood, you may
expect, when it goes out, that ii
will leave you free from that
tired feeling and with none of
the bolls, pi1nples and erupt!ons
which manifest themselves be-
cause Of impure blood in the
spring. If you have not already
begun taking Hoods Sarsapar-
lila for your spring medicine,
we advise you to begin today.
We assure You it will make you
feel better all through the cons
ing summer.

Uommandant Ollvier's RemarkaDis
Escape from the British Army.
London, March 2s- q. m.-The Beers
are having little good luck ana are
showing some holiness again, as
raiding party estimated at 400 Is be-
lieved by the British forces at Warren
ton to have crossed the Kimberley
Bloemfontein wagon road Monday ana
to have headed for Jacobsdal, with the
intention Of cutting the railway ten
miles west.
Commandant Olivier appears to have
gotten his five thousand men and TWEEN
ty-five miles Of wagons into rugged
country, where he can make an easy
rear guard defense. Charles Williams,
the military expert, says: IF this coll
umn gets through substantially Com
mandant Olivier will have carried out
the great feat Of the war, seeing that
he ran every chance of being ground
between the upper milestone Of Lord
Roberts army and the neither milestone
Of the broken Basuto frontier" He
| will have done it within fifty miles or
so Of Lord Roberts main strength.
Certainly it looked for a week as though
Lord Roberts held Olivier in the hollow
Of his hand. If Olivier gets through
sand men it will be an important add11
| ton to the Boer forces gathering there.
| His escape is attributable in part to the
wornout condition of the British cav7
| airy horses. Lord Roberts transport
| appears to have been badly dislocated
| by the loss at Riet river before Cronje'S
| surrender, of the wagon train, and in
| addition to this, the army with which
| he purposes to advance toward Preto-
| ria is nearly double that Of the earlier
rapid movements. Ten thousand trans,
| port, cavalry and gun animals are due
| to arrive at Cape ports during this and
next week.
1t is given out at Cape Town that
| Lord Roberts advance may be delayed
| for months. Although such statements
should be received with reserve, it
seems positive that he intends to go to
| Cape Town to meet Lady Roberts, who
| is due to arrive there in ten days. The
| War Office has issued another table Of
| the British losses, showing an aggre-
gate Of 1862, which does not include
1904 who have been invaded home.
Ladysmith, March 27.-It is reported
that the Beers are massing in their en-
trenched positions at Biggarsberg, and
1t is added that their transport trains
are packed at New Castle in readiness
to facilitate their retreat in case neces-
sity requires such a step.

THE GOEBEL ASSASSINATION.
Some Startling Developments in the
Case-Powers q cid without Bail.


Case-Powers Eseld Without Bail.
Frankfort, Ky, March T.-There
were some startling developments in the
Goebel assassination case to-day. This
afternoon w. II. Culton, who waived ex-
animation and was held over to the Cir
cult Court, went to the Capitol Hotel
where he was in conference with the at
torneys for the prosecution for over two
hours. He was accompanied by his
brother-in-law, E. E. Hogg, who is also
bis attorney. Culton was reported to have
made confession, but later tonight It
developed that the information gained
was not as sweeping as thought. His
friends admit that he gave the prosecu-
ton such information as he had and
which had heretofore not come out.
Henry E. YoutSey, Republican Auditor,
Sweeny's clerk, was arrested at noon and
locked up in Jail charged with being an
accessory to the assassination. He is
half brother of Hon. L. ]. Crawford,
prominent Republican Of Newport, and
detectives arrested him as the man with
the black moustache whom Golden men,
toned as being given the key to Caleb
Powers office. Youtsey complained the
prosecution had broken faith in arresting
him, and it is said he is ready to make a
public statement, for which the prosecu-
ton is not anxious at this time.
At to-day's session of the examining
trial Of the Republican Secretary Of State
Caleb Powers, the court room was clear
ed Of all persons except attorneys, news
paper representatives and court officers.
The defense announced they would intro
duce no testimony and rendering Govern
or Taylor's pardon of Powers asked the
defendant be dismissed upon the evidence.
The Commonwealth disputed Taylor's
right, and the court overruled motion. Bail
was asked for Judge Moore said: s'It is not
my belief that Powers fred the shot which
killed Governor Goebel, but from the evil
dence it is my opinion that he was con-
nected with the conspiracy to kill him. !
shall therefore order that he be held over
without bail to the Franklin county grand
jury, that the case may be further inVes-
tigated.'
This afternoon Culton's counsel an
nounced that Culton would waive his ex-
aiming trial and by agreement of the
attorneys he will remain at home with his
sick wife, under private guard. Captain
John Davis also waived examination and
was admitted to bail in the sum Of $500
He was locked up for the night. 1
