Danger in Wire Baling

A few days ago thoroughbred COW at
tho Holstein Ranch died, apparently
flom q general wasting. Her stomach
was cut open and in it were found sew
eral pieces Of wire about six inches long.
They were very bright and smooth show
ing they had been in the stomach some
time. Some Of the ends had protruded
through the lining of the stomach.
The ends came from wire used in bal
ing hay. They had mingled with the
hay and been swallowed by the COW.
Persons using hay baled with wire
should cut the wire in the middle instead
Of near the end, if they wish to avoid
fatal results to animals feeding on the
hay. for if the cut wires three feet long
instead OF a few in hes they will not he
swallowed.

LONDON SHOCKED
Five Companies Of British In,
fantry Captured by the
Beers

San Francisco, April GA London
dispatch reports that Lord Roberts
has informed the war Office that five
companies OF British troops have been
captured by the Beers. They were
three companies of Irish Fusileers and
two companies mounted rifsmen. The
scene OF the disaster was . small town
near Bloemfontein.
The news when given out produced
an uneasy feeling throughout London.
For while it was not known whether
the companies were merely captured or
annihilated and the widest rumors
were aAoat. There was a better feel
ing when it was known that the loss of
life had been small, but this also showed
that the men had surrendered with
scarcely struggle.
It was the old story OF mar hing
along in dangerous locality without
the simple precaution of sending
mounted scouts ahead 1t IS held,
however, that the scouts were ahead,
but they were captured by the enemy
before they could give any alarm.
This is regarded as lame explanation
as there should be string of scouts
within hating distance of each other.
The evening papers of London are
beginning to criticise the bad general
shin of the commanders for tho Suda
surprises, and losses of men are getting
rather toe frequent of late. The latest
is that the Beers caught the British
IN ravine, and surrounding them
suddenly on three sides with an over
whelming force, gave them the alter
native of being wiped out or surrender
ing.
The dis patches from the front are
censored, and there is feeling that
there may be worse behind.

The way the dignitaries of Dublin and
the Queen Of England are kow-towing
to each other on the occasion of the
Queens visit to Ireland, reminds one of
an opera bouffe by Offenbach. 1t is all
empty sham on both sides and all the
world knows it. Thousands of Irish
people have laid down and starved bv
the roadside and it never bothered the
queen Of England. But when they die
In battle to protect England's CONNER
clai interests it is another a tter. If the
Queen really has fallen in love with the
Irish why don't che advocate granting
them home rule? Such a suggestion how
ever would give Victoria a series CT con-
niptien fits.

Democratic Chances Good

New York, April 2.-Perry Belmont,
who supported Palmer and Buckner in
1896, thinks that the Democrats have a
great opportunity to elect President.
He said last night:
''The Republican party is assailing
and Democrats are defending the Con-
stitution and the Supreme Court. On
that issue the Democratic party can
win, provided it selects candidates in
whom the country can have confidence
those who have themselves attacked
the Integrity of the Supreme Court,
standing on the Chicago platform, are
disqualified from leading in such an is
sue. The most violent criticism of the
AID mlnistratiOn that is being made is
the assertion that even the unsuccess-
full candidate Of 1896 is preferable now.
Ii that is the case how assured is Dem
ocfatic success upon new issues with a
candidate representing them.
The Repu blican contention is that
Congress when legislating for any part
OF the United States outside of the
ferty-hve States is free to prescribe
such laws as it pleases, and that the
recent treaty with Spain has given SOW
erelgnty over Porto Rico and the
Philippines unrestrained by the pro-
visions of the Constitution.
The Democratic party is on firm
ground. The treaty making power as
well as Congress must obey the Con-
stltution. That is the decision of the
Supreme Court, and is the law of the
land until reversed by the Court.
The treaty with Spain must be
made to conform thereto. The Re-
publican leaders are repeating a party
shlboeleth that ''The Constitution was
made for the people, not the people for
the Constitution. The Constitution
was ordained for liberty and Justice
both denied to the Porto Ricans by the
Mckinley party. They are entitled to
immediate recognition whether Great
Ing precedent for the Philippines or
| not.
Even under Spanish rule the Porto
Rlcans had deputies in the Cortes at
Madrid. Why should they not have a
territorial representation at Washing
Ton: The prospects OF the Democratic
party are growing brighter daily on
this great Constitutional issue.''

AMERICAN WON EN.
Max O'Rcll Makes His Initial Appear
ancc in Richmond.


Al Paul Bouet, more popularity known
as Max O'Rel," the famous lecturer
and author. made his initial appearance
in Richmond last night. He also inau-
gurated his first Southern tour. NJ.
Blouet arrived in New York a few days
ago and came direct to Richmond, where
he delivered his renowned lecture, Her
Royal Highness, Woman and probably
no lecture in the Lyceum Course had
been looked forward to with so much in
terest. Though NJ. Blouet has often ap-
peared in different American cities, he
had not visited Richmond, and was ac-
corded a most enthusiastic welcome at
the Academy last night.
The distinguished lecturer was Intro
duced by Colonel George Wayne Ander-
son in pleasant speech.
NJ Blouet devoted the first part of his
lecture to the woman of the French Re-
public, with occasional illusions to the
women Of England and America. The
second part was the description OF the
American woman, her personality. her
life and her characteristic traits. He re-
ferred only to the French and English
women for comparison. The lecturer de-
clared that the American woman was
a superior kind of being and paid her the
Aost pronounced compliments. She was
accorded attention and rendered homage,
as was the woman of no other nation.
Her attachments We're greater and lIore
varied, her education higher, her person.
alIty more fascinating and her manner
more agreeable than that of the woman
of European countries. She commanded
more respect and consideration at the
hands of men than did the women of
England and France, and added the
lecturer ''she deserves them too.''
Max O'Rell takes rank as a humorist
with Ar1ernus Ward and Josh Billings.
but is more scholarly than they, and his
wit is more refined. His language is
choice.
