Fitzharris and Mullett Break a Door
ON IA Cunarder Servia.

NEW YORK, June 23.-Joseph Mullett
and James ~Fftzharris. the Irishmen who
served sentences In an English prison for
completely in the Phoenix Park murders
and who arrived at this port on May q
last. were deported by the Cunard steam
ship Servia. which called at / o'clock. After
the men reached this country they went
before the board of special inquiry at the
barge Office and declared that they were
imprisoned for a political offense and being
political prisoners were entitled to land in
this country and TO enter. The board of
special inquiry found they were persons
of moral turpitude. and ordered their de-
portation. They appealed the case to the
Treasury Department at Washington, and
the Treasury Department declared that
they nave been convicted of a murder; that
they were not political prisoners.
Mullet and Fitzharris were ocked up in
the steerage hospital Of the Servia, accord
ing to CUSTOM, but they broke down the
door and Fitzharris, sticking out his head,
and in a frightful rage, yelled: stop,
you Britishers, you are worse than the
Americans. We are not prisoners"
Friends interposed, and the men were
given the liberty of the deck until the
vessel got away.

Pacifcation Of south Africa by Lord
Roberts's Army Now Drawing
TO n Conclusion.

copyright. 1900. by the Associated Press-l
LONDON, june 2S.-Great Britain's army
In South Africa is slowly accomplishing the
work of pacihcation. The smoldering en-
bers OF what once was fierce resistance oc-
casionalIy flare UP. but the hard fighting
seems TO be practically over. The British
military progress in the Transvaal is
scarcely more interesting now than the
events In the Orange River Colony during
the last two months. The TransvaaI an
nexation proclamation is soon expected. AL
most all reports indicate that the Beers are
rapidly realizing the futility OF a further
struggle when opposed to such an over
whelming force
One Of the most noticeable features OF
the week in South Africa was Lord
Roberts's abandonment OF humane meas
ures toward the Beers. which he had so
long persisted in despite the criticism OF
the British colonists and many officers. The
stern vengeance that now will be visited
not only on those Who give the Beers
passive assistance but on those who, after
surrender. fail TO assist the British arms
savors more of General Kitchener than OF
"Bobs."
According TO a Pretoria dispatch General
Botha possesses full powers TO conclude
peace. and IL is reiterated that he is willing
TO surrender, but il seems President Kruger
remains obdurate.
The fact that a deputation from Peters
burg, in northern Transvaal. has appealed
TO Lord Roberts with an invitation TO send
a force 10 receive the submission OF the
town is regarded as important. for Peters
burg is far removed from the scene Of war
fare.

even more; one girl never dons a washable
garment a second time, while another has
been known to admit that she had, with
care, worn a shirt waist six times. IL you
told the first one she could get along with
six of these shirts she might shudder, while
the other would find it perfectly easy.
Nellie Bly,, after taking a decent amount
on her famous trip. said that one might go
round the world with a change of under
wear, since she didn't see a day when 1t
was not possible to have the off, one

To go decently, however, one must have
a certain number of things. TIL frequency
with which they change their attire Will
settle the exact number, and this they can
easily think out for themselves
A well-made tailor suit is a necessity for
travelling. Many. of course, consider two
just as necessary.
For the ocean voyage a very warm cape
or ulster and a warm rug must be pro-
vided, along with extra warm underwear.

and some choose a cap for wear aboard

A flannel room gown is a comfort, and in

wear, one must consider ones usual re-
quirements and then allow for the times
when a laundress is not at hand.)
Most of US consider one handsome dress.

necessity. A handsome bodice will make
the tailor skirt available for daytime &C
casion. Some get around this, however, by
not taking on evening dress. but by simply
putting in an extra fine bodice Travellers
are forgiven much in the matter of dress.
But even with the evening dress, II Ii be
not too ornate, one may manage with a
steamer trunk and a bag. OF course, a
tourist likes TO be encountered as little as
possible. If, however. one must AVE all
ones belongings. numberless toilet articles,
shoe trees, and the rest, there's no end 10

which will be levied. One must pay for any
thing over fifty-six pounds on the conti-

one or more handsome silk bodices for din
ner and evening.
As for footwear, one pair of stout boots.
and one OF Oxfords, and a pair Of slippers
should see the economical person through.
While the mere tourist may go comfort
ably with one steamer trunk and a bag.
those with more elaborate tastes. and
especially those who have many friends
abroad, and who are to be extensively en-
tertained, will require about as much as
they do at home.

COST OF MAKING BUTTER.
wallace's Farmer.

Ndl-dCe , TdIultI-
The cost Of the manufacture OF a pound
of butter in the creamery is almost entirely
governed by the quantity of milk handled
by that creamery, and a decrease in the
cost, on account OF the magnitude OF the
price paid 10 farmers for butter fat. One
creamery in one Of the dairy counties in
Iowa manufactured f0o.0 900 pounds of butter
at a cost of j cent per pound; another 559.-
600 pounds OF butter at a cost OF IL cents.
In the smaller creameries the cost is re-
ported at from 5 TO z cents per pound, the
average being 3 cents. In creameries hand
ling not more than $3.50, 900 pounds Of milk
the average cost is 2.2 cents. and when
LOCO, 600 pounds are added the cost falls TO
% cents, while in creameries receiving
more than 100000 pounds OF milk the av-
erage cost Is l79 cents.
Where a creamery is established. every
farmer who patronizes it or intends TO pa
troniZe il should exert himself 10 the ut
most to increase the supply of milk TO the
creamery In so doing he viii cheaper the
cost Of manufacture and thus advance the
price of his own cream. The attitude Of a
few leading farmers is frequently the life
or death Of a struggling creamery. IL these
men throw their active support to the
creamery they can Increase the supply OF
milk and thus enable the creameTyman 10
give an increased price. This increased
cure still further patronage, and, in time,
an industry profitable alike 10 the farmer
and the creamerynlan will be built up; but
II they withdraw their support and dis
courage their ~neighbors they decrease the
amount of milk and decrease the price and
frequently compel the creamery 10 close or
become a mere skim station.

EXPIATED HIS CRIME.
White Man Assaulted an Aged woman
and Was Lynched.

NEW ORLEANS. La, June 23.-Mrs.
Josephine Coates, mother of Mrs. Sallie
Otis, of this city, was criminally assaulted
and brutality murdered yesterday at her
residence in an isolated neighborhood on
the Tickenaw river. near Springfield, in
Livingston parish. She was sixty years Of
age and was reported TO ave considerable
money about her place. Mr.. Gilmore. a
white man who lived about two miles from
her house down the river. is alleged to be
the murderer.
Mrs. Coates's grandson, George Ray.
came home for dinner and found her on
the floor of the kitchen dead. He ran to
a ~neighbor's, B. b. Kemp. who lived a
hundred yards away and told of his dis
covery. Both returned on a quick run and
aught Gilmore going out of the back
door. They say he had been ransacking
the house. Kemp captured the man at the
point Of a gun. Deputy Sheriff M l.. Ahren
was sent for. An examination was held
and the only excuse Gilmore could ofer
for his presence at the Coates residence
was that he had com TO see about some
blowing the old lady wanted done
About twenty-five or thirty men gathered
later in the evening while Gilmore was
still being held at the Coates house under
examination and took him out in the near
by timber. He was lynched by the mob
after he had confessed the crime. He was
first strung to a beech tree limb The
branch broke and the mob riddled his body
with bullets before he could arise from
the ground. A hole was dug under the
more's body was tumbled into ii and the
mob dispersed.

BIG WINNERS In WHEAT
BULLS MAKING FORTUNES IN THE
BULGING MARKET.
nPyramiderso Have 1t All Their Own
Way, but the Country Is i'm No
Danger Of Starvation.

CHICAGO. June 23.-July wheat was
quoted at 66k cents on the Board of Trade
during the session of tune 4. AT the close
to-day the same option was selling at IS
cents. This was Az cents above the clos
ing price of yesterday No such advance
has been scored since the attempted corner
engineered by Joseph Letter.
In the advance of 2115 cents during the
past nineteen days there has been no evil
dences of manipulation. contrary to the
speculative proyerb that the market only
advances or -manipulation: its natural
course is downward" 1t has been the most
remarkable rise in the history of the ex-
change. .'Pyramiders' have had every
thing their own way because the e has been
scarcely a setback since the market crossed
70 cents. No failures have resulted. There
was an extraordinary small short interest
at the beginning of the advance, and this
was hastily covered. Foreigners had hedged
against considerable cash stuff in this mar
ket, but Of course this kin of shortage en-
tailed no financial loss.
Stories of big winnings are thick about
the exchange. and no such wave of pros
perity has visited the commission men in
a decade. Causes for this advance in the
price of the "staff of life'' are found in the
parched spring wheat fields of the great
Northwest, where authorities declare not
one-third Of the crop of former years can
be harvested. A bumper winter wheat crop
has already been assured outside of the
States OF Ohio. Indiana and Michigan.
For the satisfaction of those who may
be In fear OF starvation II may also be
stated that the visible supply of wheat in
the public granaries Of the United States
exceeds 5000. 600 bushels. These are the
grains Of comfort left to the bears. who
also have the assurance that every month
in the year records q wheat harvest In some
country OF the globe. But at present a sort
of "bull fever" is running high and the
Chicago wheat pit Is flooded by telegraphic
orders from every part of the world to
buy, buy, buy"

The Dick Brown at the Bottom Of the
Ohio-At Least Two Lives Lost.

CINCINNATI. June 23--The little river
passenger packet Dick Brown, that makes
daily trips between Cincinnati and vevay.
Ind, and other ports, sprang a leak and
sank near shore at the foot Of Mount Echo,
near Sedamsviile, on her down trip this
evening. All the passengers and crew, six.
ty in number. are reported saved without
injury. The boat was a small stern wheel
er worth about 5000. Present indications
are that it will be a total loss. The cargo
was iron. cement and salt destined for
Frankfort. Ky. Overlooking the boat
caused her to sink. The boat officers say
no lives were lost. but spectators on shore
say three people were drowned.
Late tonight il was ascertained beyond
doubt that two negro roustabouts just en-
ployed on the Dick Brown to-day jumped
into the river and were drowned when the
vessel sank
