When the poultry show opens at the
armory this morning there will be 1000
birds on exhibition. There were more
birds at the armory yesterday afternoon
than had been entered in last years
show. Some 500 more are expected today,
which will make the exhibit one of the
largest recently held in Minnesota. With
few exceptions the chickens came in good
condition, and a frost-nipped comb was
the worst any had suffered. The weigh
ing-in proved that the birds were con-
siderably heavier than last year, many
of the cocks tipping the scales at thir-
teen pounds. One great white rooster
went as high as eighteen. Old-time fam
ciers say that the coloring in the feath-
ers was never better, especially in mot
tied birds. With conditions so excellent.
with such impartial and experienced
judges as Butterfield and Holden OH
ating, exhibitors are looking forward
to some splendid scoring.
Among the interested onlookers at the
armory yesterday was State Agent w. A.
Gates, former president Of the Minnesota
State Poultry association. Mr.. Gates
could recall chicken shows held within
the last six years at Market hall, where
the entries exceeded 1000, and the scor-
ing was very near perfection Himself
breeder of Silver Wyandottes, he entered
at one show 10 chickens Of that breed.
Mr.. Gates was one of the charter MEM
bers of the State Poultry association.
It's second president, he held that office
for four years successfully. Although
no longer fancier. Mr. Gates is always
an interested visitor at the annual chick
en- show.
The pet stock will be in place early to-
day. The entries include cats, rabbits,
guinea pigs, prairie dogs, rats, mice, etc.
The show continues until Saturday, and
Is omen day and evening.

Squatters on Lake Front Tract Greet
Police with Bullets.
Capt. George w. Streeter, the squat
ter" who claims a considerable tract of
land on the lake front in Chicago, inyad-
ed the disputed territory with armed men
saturday The men carried Springfield
rifles, and with fixed bayonets they be-
gan patrolling the boundaries OF the
tract They had with them Calling
gun and detied the police. A clash be-
tween the invaders and the police occur
red early in the day, and shots were fred
on both sides The police retired and
then orders were issued by Chief of Po-
ice Kipley for 500 men with a Gatling
gun to go to the district. Sheriff Mayer
stadt with 100 deputies also hurried to
the scene. The State militia was asked
70 furnish men to man the Calling gun.
Sixty rifles and sixty rounds of ammu-
aition were sent to the East Chicago
police station.
Late in the afternoon a fire boat. with
a Satling gun aboard, was dispatched up
Lake Michigan to make a demonstration
from that side, and to cut off the escape
of Streeter's men by means of their
yacht. The army of policemen and the
improvised warship descended on Capt.
Streeter's followers and a portion of them
surrendered to the park police, while the
remainder made their escape.
Capt. Streeter claims to own the land
which, were the title clear, would be
worth between thirty and fifty millions
of dollars. In 1885 Capt. Streeter and
his wife were stranded on a little sandbar
a few yards from the shore at the foot
of Superior street. The spot was not
down on the maps and the doughty nayi-
gator laid claim to the land and declared
his right, being the whole population, TO
elect himself to all the offices, which, in
framing a constitution, he deemed the
territory in need Of. As the years pass
ed by the dumping of all sorts of refuse
and earth washed up by the lake formed
a large tract, and Capt. Streeter became
man of Importance. With his impor
lance and the increased value of the
lands his troubles began. The tract be-
came connected with the shore, and own
ers of adjoining property resented the
presence of Capt. Streeter and the re-
tainers he had gathered about him. They
carried the matter into court The SUI
preme Court of the United States de-
cided that the land was within the juris-
,iiction of the State of Illinois. Streeter,
thereupon. offered the district to the Fed
eral Government. A year ago he organ
lied under the name District Of Michi-
gan" a territorial government, and elect
ed himself chief justice and to other Of
fees of Importance The police, however,
descended ON him and his army Of fifty
men, and since then up TO Saturday the
captain had lived in another part of

Mrs. Semple was married in her early
girlhood and was scarcely more than a
bride when her father entered the White

older sister made Mrs. Semple virtually
the lady of the White House from 1S42
to 1914. Her husband had entered the
United States nay and his death, to-
gether with financial reverses, made it
necessary for Mrs. Semple to earn her

WILL FLEECE THE VISITORS.
Hotel Rates in Philadelphia and KAN
sas City 10 Re Doubled.

SaS City TO be DOuDte0s
Unless stricken with premature re-
morse, Philadelphia correspondent
says, there is every indication that the
hotelkeepers of the city will fleece the
delegates, politicians and other visitors
who attend the Republican national con-
vention In nearly every instance the
hotels of Philadelphia, to start with,
have doubled the per diem rate. Rooms
that ordinarily rent for 81 man will
rent for 81 man. Rooms that rent for
So will rent during the convention at So.
But this is only a starter. Those rooms
generally are let to one person. During
the convention a single room will be ex-
pected to accommodate two or three per-
sons and double room four or FIVE. The
result is that rooms that now are given
for 81 and So day will be expected dur
ing the convention to bring from SIS to
$40 day.
Suites, consisting of parlor, bedroom
and bath, will cost from $40 to SO a
day, according to location, and many of
the hotels are already full, every room
being booked and these hotels are send
ing applicants TO lodging and apartment
houses, charging the regular hotel rates.
Reports from Kansas City convey the
information that little better may be ex-
pected there during the Democratic con-
vention. The hotel accommodations are
not of the best and unGuestionably some
of the hotels viii ask unusual, perhaps
extortionate, rates. Even at the best
hotels during the convention, instead of
one person occupying a room, as many

Gan be accommodated. This may be
three, four or five.

"BoxERs" GROW BOLD.
Chinese Rebels Encouraged by Their
Recent Successes.

The hostile demonstrations of the reac-
tionary elements in China, headed by the
secret society known as the Boxers,
have suddenly assumed the aspect of a
serious rebellion. Emboldened by their
success in defeating the Government
troops, the rebels have destroyed the
railway station and rolling stock at Liu-
limo, near Picking, and are marching on
the capital itself. The whole movement
is aimed at all foreign influences in
China The gravity of the situation is
increased by the fact that the dowager
Empress, the dominant force in the i'm
perial government, is more or less in sym
patty with the reaetionary motives of
the rebels. The Boxers" have for
months been massacring native converts
to Christianity at various points, and
though they have thus far refrained from
killing foreign missionaries it is at them
that the hostility is chiefly aimed. If the
imperial government cannot or Will not
suppress the murderous acts of the rebels
nothing remains but for the foreign gov
ernments to send warships and troops to
defend the property and lives of their cit
liens in China BY their violence the
fanatical Chinese are only Fastening the
advent of the foreign influences which
they are combating Anarchy is said to
prevail even now in many of the prov
inces. and if the Boxer" rebellion gains
the formidable proportions now threat
ened it may easily prove radical step
toward the breakup of China itself.

BOERS GIVE UP WAR.
CONFLICT IN SOUTH AFRICA
ABOUT AT AN END.
British Officers Dictate Terms of Sur
render Kruger Said to Be in Hiding
Some Distance from L ydenburg- Lord
Roberts in Control of Government.

The war in South Africa is about at an
end. johannesburg and Pretoria have
surrendered to Lord Roberts, and Prcsi-
dent Kruger is a fugitive from the con-
quering soldiers of the Queen. The union
jack is now waving in triumph over the
burghers' stronghold. British officers
held conference at Johannesburg TO die
tate terms of surrender. The reins Of
government were transferred TO the COM
mander-in-chief and committees of ctr
zens of both the federal cities We're APP
pointed to welcome Lord Roberts and
arrange temporary terms of capltuiation.
The Daily Mail publishes the following
dispatch from the Earl of Rosslyn, who
was prisoner at Pretoria, but who, as a
civilian, appears TO have been released:
Pretoria win be occupied in about two
hours, without resistance The president
has gone 10 Wateryal-Boven. Burgomas-
ter de Souza is authorized TO receive the
British. He. with an influential commit
tee of citizens, including Chief Justice
Gregorowski, has been appointed TO pre-
serve life and property during the inter
regnum Everything is quiet, but crowds
are waiting eXpeetantly in Church square
for the arrival of the British. Fearing
a possible disturbance and bloodshed
among the prisoners of war at Waterfall,
United States Consul Hay and Leigh
Wood insisted upon twenty officers being
liberated on parole TO go to the men.
Their action cannot be too highly praised.
/ was permitted to accompany the Off
GERS. Everything was quiet"
The collapse of the Beers resistance Is
apparently as complete as it is sensation
nj. According to the reports that reached
London, Lord Roberts made an unoppos-
ed entry into Johannesburg early on
Wednesday,, and the surrender of the city
by Commandant Krause followed
promptly Coincident with the fab of the
gold city the forts surrounding Pretoria
were unceremoniously evacuated, and
Lerd Roberts advance guard promptly
marched to the capital which, supposed
ly, was turned over late in the afternoon
without the slightest semblance of oppo-
sition
president Kruger meantime is reported
as in hiding at Waterfall Bowen, south Of
Lydenburg, on the Pretoria Delagoa Bay
Railway, where, it had been said previ-
ously, the Boer army would make its last
stand The president left the capital
soon after the gloomy news came from
Johannesburg, and his flight was effect
ed in spite of Lord Roberts attempt to
cut off his retreat by the seizure of the
railway east of Pretoria.
