WASHINGTON. August 10.-Admiral

in relation to Philippine and Chinese

Neither did l say or intimate that in
my opinion state of war exists be-

statements attributed to me are abso-

cial hotel of Goodland, and George
Cullins, We're severely and perhaps IA
tally wounded. Another of the pur-
suing party, name unknown, was
wounded slightly.
The second robber, who made his
way into a sod kitchen, back Of the
house, where he held fifty posse men
at bay until 4 o'clock this afternoon,
was burned to death
Two men succeeded in crawling up
to the building and threw lighted fuses
on the roof. The place was destroyed
and with it the robber.
The Union Pacific, Kansas City,
Denver train was robbed between
Limon Junction and Hugo, Colo, ninety
miles east of Denver, last Sunday
morning. Many passengers were re-

and w. ]. Fay, an aged man who re-
sisted, was killed by one of the com
pany.
The robbers dropped off the train at
Hugo and escaped. Wednesday it was
learned they went to the ranch of D.
E. Bartholomew, three miles from
Goodland, and asked food and lodging
for few days. They said they did not
,tant to go to town as their clothes
were ragged.
To-day a posse consisting of Sheriff
Walker, j. R. Riggs, George Cullins, E.
c. Cuddison and several others heavily
armed, went over to the Bartholomew
place.
Walker and Riggs dismounted and
proceeded to the house. One Of the rob-
bers caught sight Of them and gave The
alarm. When Walker, a moment later
began kicking on the door, he was met

robbers returned the fire strongly and

back. Finally one of the robbers jump
ed through a window and made off in
the smoke. Before he had gone half
a dozen steps he fell.
Sheriff Walker meantime had forced
his way toward the house and was in
tent on getting inside. In the smoke
and confusion, Cullins got in the way

back and seriously wounded. While
the posse were removing Cullins, the

some men crawled through a corn field

railroad fuses upon the roof of the
shack. In a few minutes 1t was in
flames, but the robber made no sign and
if he was not struck by one of the
hundreds of bullets fired at his retreat
he met death in the flames. Both

The Care OF Cut Glass.

A wooden tub should be used for
washing cut glass, and the wate in
which it is cleaned should not be too
warm for the hands. A sudden chang.
of temperature is bad for glasswase,
and it should never be left upon mss-
BILE or stone. The deeper the cutting,
the more liable it is to be broken.
Decanters and water bottles which
have become discolored may be
cleansed with a soft cloth guided by a
wire. Discoloring may be removed
by placing shot with bits of paper and
strong soap suds in the vessel and
shaking them well together. Beans are
sometimes used instead of shot. A
tablespoonful of muriatic acid to a
pint of water will remove obstinate
stains. For cleansing the outside,
cloths and towels and brush are
necessary. The washing and rinsing
waters should not vary much in tenn
perature. A soft towel should be placed
under the dishes when draining. To
secure a high polish vigorously rub
glassware when it is warm, with per-
fectly clean towel. Glass which is
ornamented with gold should be
washed in suds made of CASTLE soap,
and should be wiped dry as soon as II
is washed. Finely cut glass should be
kept in a closed cabinet and not ham
died much.

said of the scorching cyclist. The
roar, the kissing sound and the cloud

THE PRESENT TORY GOVERNMENT

The British were dissatisfied and dis
appointed In the selection Of Lord Lans-
downe for the very important cabinet
position Of Secretary of State for For
eign Affairs. He is believed to be an
sufficient, thoroughly incompetent for
the place. 1t IL a place Of much honor
and trust. Chamberlain coveted the
another selection or the Queen did. He
wished to retire altogether from the
premiership, holding also h other
place mentioned, but the Queen insist
ed upon his remaining in office, and a
compromise was effected by his giving
succeeding. This a been sweepingly
criticised. He had been at the head Of
the war department and was rightly
or wrongly believed to be the cause OF
the many disasters that befel British
armies in the first months of the war.
But We are not quite sure that is alto
gether just. Incompetent officers were
in command and they Numbered fear
fully. Their incompetency was laugh
ed at all around Europe. The complaints
against Lord Lansdowne were very
strong and insistant. Prophecy pro-
cedes his trial in his new position. 1t
is predicted that having been before
a complete failure in several important
offices he will continue 20 be so in his
new place. Give the poor fellow a
chance. Lord Salisbury did no favor.
it is understood, Mr.. Chamberlain for
wal office, he having no talent for di-
plomacy. He as made a distinguished
reputation in the Salisbury Tory Gov
eminent, and is a man of great energy
and great aspirations. He is perhaps
the man among the some
twenty-five officials who compose the
cabinet with the exception of Lord
Salisbury, who is old but able.

AN UNPLEASANT AFTERMATH.

In 1896, Mckinley received 271 cleo
toral votes and Bryan received 176. 1t
is not known as we write just what
the electoral vote will be. 1t was
thought on Wednesday hat Mckinley
had 279, and Bryan IFS. McKinley's
popular majority will be much larger
than it was in 1896. 1t was prophecied
that it would not be far from a million
and a half. The north is thoroughly
republican. The house of representa-
tives will show an Increased major
ity for the Republicans. 1t will be
somewhere between % and 80. The
senate may be slightly changed. Civ
ing the democrats two or three new
members. Maryland is now a republi-
al state clearly. The republicans elect
ed four out of six members of the
house. The Washington Post gives
Mckinley 2S9 and Bryan 15S. Texas
elects democratic members of the ext
congress all through 1t gives 1854 600

from Galveston and its storms. There
is sound political health out there. So
everything is republican now. With the

country should prosper" 1t would be
popular to say in the north-high taxes

In one of our Georgia exchanges we saw
in IL quoted what Ex-Governor Hoard.
of Wisconsin, said in that state to a
convention. relative to the advantages
of the dairy business:
In his state dairying has been
brought to a high state Of protection,
and through it the value of lands
have beeen considerably increased. He
told of one county in Wisconsin where
prior to the introduction Of dairy farm
ing, the lands we're worth only SIS per
acre for wheat growing, but which has
now been raised to the value of $61
per acre by dairy farms. In that coun-
ty there are now n hundred cream
cries and dairy farms doing a business
estimated a. upwards of $50 o 600 an
nuauy, including all products; and the
the owners of these farms have not
less than g. 900. 900 in cash on deposit
in the banks"
Why may not our wide-awake, pro-
gressive farmers engage in this lucra-
tive and pleasant business? The Wis
consian thought Georgia admirably
adapted to hat business. We may not
doubt If he were to travel over our own
state that he would also speak in its
favor in this particular direction.
With well directed energy and a fair
amount of practical sense there is
money in this suggested Enterprise.
