Now Said that 1873 Per, ons Lost Lives on

San Francisco, FEB. 23-The list OF
those lost by the sinking of the Rio de
aniero is now placed at I3S. Only two
more bodies have come ashore, members
of the crew. No effort will be made to
raise the sunken vessel. which will be
the coffin Of Captain Ward and the rest.
The Rios loss. with its cargo amounts to
sl,4 1000.
There is now no doubt that Consul
General Wildman and his family are
among the drowned.
Captain Ward did not shut himself up
in his cabin, but bravely lashed himself
to his bridge and was giving orders TO
rescue others when he bravely sank to
rise no more.
Mr.. Schwerin, manager for the Pacific
mail, says the blame belongs TO Captain
Ward. He had positive orders never to
leave or enter a harbor in fog. The
pilot is no, TO blame. because he is mere.
ly the captains guide, and sub tject 10 his
orders TO start. The fog was dense
when the Rio started Fnday morning.

AN interesting bit of fancy in
dulged if By people at Washington
is the deciphering of mysterious
shadowgraphs on tina marble cul-
umns of the White House east by
,the combined effect of the sun and
the overhanging cornices, which
sometimes represent striking like
nesses of prominent personages OF
of various objects. Under the late
administration the chief likenesses
traced were those of President Nc
Kinley, Mark Hanna, Queen Vic
toria and the late Presidents aged
mother, both of the latter appear
ing after the death of the two
women. Close upon the accession
of President Roosevelt, the charac-
ter of the shaGowgraphs is said to
have changed, and now the new
President in his rough rider eos
tune is represented in unusually
clear cut outline, with Secretary
Hay as companion shadow An
ominOus picture noticed is that of
a pistol held 10 an extended hand
x winged figure and "A flying dove
are others of the new tracings by
the Sun, which come and go with
weird effect daily as that luminary
weuds its way westward. Imagin-
alive people these shadowgraphs
may find pleasing occupation IN
weaving various portents from
these figures. The pistol, to them,
may meaR that an attempt will be
made to aSsassinate President
Roosevelt, or that he will be assas-
sinated and Secretary Hay will be-
come his successor. Perhaps
though, the winged figure may be
that of a guardian angel which
will protect the nation from an
other such calamity as the assas-
sination of lis chief The dove, if
there be- any significance IN the
shadowgraphS, must portend peace
for the nation under the new adj
ministration. which it is devoutly
to be wished may be true omen.

You can squeeze the end Of his tail
and the milk will stream from it
and when he strikes his tail on his
sides it will make his sides white

such low prices and reasonable terms.
This is what they say:

we were surprised 70 find beautiful
warm weather at this point, quite equal

There was no snow nor trace Of winter

splendid. Horses. cattle and sheep
were running out, in prime condition,
