persistence in prOscrastinating methods
continues to disturb the Turkish relations

three Frenchmen, dating back many years

largest for all cereals that this country has
had for many years. The hay crop already

INCIDENT A report has been re-
ceived at the treasury
CLOSED" department from the col
lector of customs at San
Francisco showing that the duty had
been paid on a part of the Chinese loot
seized in Minneapolis by officials of the
department of justice some time ago.
The report stated that the baggage Of
James R. Hull, the newspaper man who
brought the loot into this country, had
been examined and passed and valuation
placed on dutiable articles by the as
SCISSOR. 1t is probable that no further
steps will be taken by the government
in the matter. AS one official of the
treasury department said to-day:
II our officers at San Francisco undervalued
goods, that is our mistake, and l do not see
how the importer can be proceeded against
He acted in good faith in allowing his goods
to be examined according to regulations and
paid the duty assessed on his belongings
He could not insist upon a re-examination
as he, in all probability. thought the full
duty had been assessed.

FEMININE PRESENCE OF MIND.
Mormon Girls Nerve In a Very Elm barrasslng Situation.

From the Detroit Free Press.
 Colonel Frank D.. Baldwin, Fourth United States Infantry. now serving in our island possessions in the far Pacific. and doing splendid service. too, tells a good story of young Mormon girls presence of mind.
 Some few years ago, 1t will be recalled. Colonel Cody invited a number of foreign officers to visit him at his Western ranch and go on jaunt of thousand miles in the saddle through the wonderland of the border.
 Among those who accepted the invita- tion were, then Colonel. now General Mo Kinnon and Major Sir St. John Mildmay of the British Grenadier Guards.
 Colonel Baldwin. above referred to, was the escort sent by General Miles to the foreign officers.
 It was when nearing the end of the thousand-mile trail, and at a pretty Nor mon village in Utah. that a dance was given to Colonel Cody and his guests
 Pretty girls were there in the school house where the dance was held, and the beaux were the members of the Cody party, from the chief and his honored guests to the "horse wranglers," and a Mormon bishop.
 The music was amelodeon, accordion. bugle and violin. and it was playing with a vim that made the feet hustle while the ''corners were swung in a way that caused the feminine dry goods to fly high.
 'In one set." Colonel Baldwin said. were Cody. the officers of the Grenadfer Guards, Mormon president of a stake or county, a sedate elder and a cow boy.
 "Sir St. John Mildmay was dancing with a pretty girl over near the door. while few 'wallfiowers' sat right behind them. Suddenly the British majors fair partner hesitated flushing crimson, then executed few fancy steps not down in the dance, swooped down and picked up a garment from which she had become disengaged. doubtless from too abiding faith in pins and Providence.

was that 1000 wealthy men of the city
give 500 apiece to be placed at inter

fund for continuing the work of the
church in the slums. Rev. L. A. Uz-

the evening. He was almost overcome
by emotion as he recalled in n little
fifteen-minute speech some work he
had done in the seventeen years he has
held services in the old building. At
the close of his address an experience
meeting was held at which many of
the old members of the congregation
spoke.
The first service in the basement of

Denver. Oct. 2S.-A Boulder special
of last Saturday night to the Denver
Republican gives the following account
of the Bert Striegel murder trial:
The trial of Bert Striegel, accused of
administering poison to his wife Bessie
Striegel from the effects Of which 1t
is said she died, took an unexpected
turn to-day.
DIR. Battey, one of the physicians
who made n post mortem examination
of the deceased. said it was his opinion
that she had died from the effects of
some irritating poison, probably NOR
phine. but he could not swear that this
was the case, and merely gave 1t rs his
opinion. DIR. Palmer chemist at the
university, who made an analysis Of
the contents of the stomach, said If
there was any morphine in the stom-
ach it was so small II quantity that 1t
could not have produced death.
After this testimony was in the de-
fense moved to dismiss the case be
cause the prosecution had failed to
prove that the woman had died from
the effects of poison. The case was
argued before Judge Bennett this even
ing and the decision of dismissal rem
dered.
ON the evening of September 18th
suspicious noises We're heard coming
from the room occupied by Bert STRIFE
gel and his wife in the Lane block.
Striegel had rented the room the day
before, having just arrived from Long
mont on the morning of the day on
which the woman was found dead, the
chambermaid went to clean the room,
she was met mt the door by Striegel
and told that his wife was i'll and did
not want to be called until O'Clock in
the afternoon. 1t was after q o'clock
when the suspicious noises were heard
and after knocking on the door repeat
