WHAT OTHERS SAY.
The ArteSian Well Attracts
Favorable Comment.

The Vinita papers report the ar
tesian well at that place a grand
success. They claim at a depth of
600 feet the drill struck a strong
flow Of pure water, tinctured with
a heallhiul sulphurous flavor, and
thought to be adequate to supply
system of waterworks for the
town. But 1t is now proposed to
sink the well down to the depth of
1000 feet, in the hope of striking
better than water. The next news
that will come from this enterprise
will De the announcement that the
drill struck a weak flow of gas and
oil, running the water; then rock,
broke off, and the hole has been
andoned.-Clarmeore Progress.
The Vinita papers are indulging
very excusably in laudation of the
new artesian well at that place.
The Herald extends hearty con-
gratulations. Nothing is more
necessary to a town than an abund
ant supply of good. wholesome
water. This is true everywhere
and as everything else good to
drink is shut out of the Territory
by the strong arm of Uncle Sam,
for the stronger reason is pure,
sweet water necessary TO our COM
fort. We hope to be able in the
near future to felicitate our own
town on the completion of arrange
ments for the convenient use of
our supply of water which nature
has provided for US in greatest
abundance Miami Herald.

A DOMESTIC TRAGEDY.
Man Threatens his Wife and She
Dies of Fright.

CHICAGO, Sept. 1S.-Mrs. Florence
BUTLER died at the County Hospital last
evening because her husband, Ernest
ID. BUTLER, frightened her. He threat
ened to kill her. She was so terrified
that she fell unconscious in the street,
where they We're walking at the time.
Afterward Butler was locked up In
the police station. where he became de-
spondent and committed suicide by
puncturing the artery in his wrist with
a pin. The police found him lying on
the floor and took him to the jail hospi-
tai. He again attempted his life in
the same manner and died.
Several months ago Mr. and Mrs.
Buhler quarreled. She filed a bill for
divorce but. repenting, withdrew the
suit and they continued to live together
Two weeks ago when they again quar-
relied, BUTLER threatened to kill her.
Mrs. Buhler escaped from the house
and started down town to see her law
yer. She was again attacked In the
street by her husband, who brandished
revolver and made threats to take
her life
Mrs. BUTLER then fell unconscious,
she was taken to the County Hospital
where she remained until her death.
For a time 1t seemed as though she
might recover, though it was evident
that the fright had been a severe shock
"A few days ago she was told of her
husbands suicide, and from that time
her condition became worse

COTTON CRISIS IN ENGLAND.
A Million and q Half Of Laborers
Shut Out.

LONDON, Sept. 15.-The effect of the
cotton crisis is now plainly visible. The
Lancashire Federations circular recon-
mendation that all users of American
cotton abstain from working their mills
for at least twelve days during October
is likely to be generally supported. The
mills are already closing down through
out the country. Within a week propa-
bly, a million and a half of operators
will be unemployed.
Some concerns are running part of
their machinery, while others are work.
ing but two days week. But in most
leases the machines will not move again
till late in October or early in Novem-
Der. The fall in futures at Liverpool is
attributed to spectators realizing.
Meanwhile there is a fine spinning
trade.
Business is briskest as regards the
users of Egyptian cotton the stock at
Liverpool is 10000 bales above the cor
responding week in 1899. Some spinners
who formerly used American cotton are
now turning to the Egyptian, but no
relief is expected till the new American
crop arrives. The fears that it will not
prove better than that of 1899 are the
disturbing feature. Neill Brothers, the
we'll known cotton statisticians, esti-
mate it at more than nine and a quar-
ter million bales
This combined with the chances of
spectators manipulating to keep prices
UP may result in prolonging the crisis.
and as the rising coal and general prices
Is steadily telling all around, grave in
dustrial troubles in Lancashire may en-
sue. Otherwise six weeks of enforced
idleness would not seriously affect the
Lancashire operators, who are the most
prosperous class in England.
Their union will grant to those out
of work pay of 20 shillings or 25 shil-
lings weekly to each family. Oldham,
where alone $4,000 persons were idle
within the week. may be taken as an
example of the prosperity of the cotton
operators. Last August small clubs
We're generally organized by public
housekeepers and similar persons, the
subscribers paying 6 pence per week per
share throughout the year. These paid

WASHINGTON, Sept. 15.-Informa-

showing that dangerous tension ex-

and Navy Departments will not admit
that they have been informed that the
friction has reached this stage. 1t is
altogether likely that the President un-
derstands fully this feature of the Chi

naval officer says:
There is very bad blood between the
Japanese and Russians. One day the
Russians fired volley into a Japanese
detachment and apologized. The next
day the Japanese fired into the Rus

have thousands of troops ready to land
when the moment arrives. The Rus

it is now running through to Tien-Tsin.
The railroad men all quit work when
the Russians took charge, and the Jap

REFLECTIONS OF A BACHELOR

Contentment is ambitions under
taker.
The only thing that can cure a man
of love is to havei it bad enough.
The world will forgive woman for
everything except what she can't
help.
After all, love is nothing but game
of solitaire between you and your
self.
Love, with woman, has no rival.
1t is always either the biggest thing
or the smallest thing in life.
When girl lends book to a man
to read she always marks the things
in it that she thinks look the deepest.
Down in her heart every woman
thinks a man ought to begin propos-
ing to her by apologizing for daring
to fall in love with her.
Tell man woman loves him and
the first question he asks is: "Who ?"
