George E. Rooster Appointed ReVe.
nue. Collector for South Carolina.
Washington, Oct. 22.-The presi-
cent has appointed George E. Rooster
collector of internal revenue for the
district of South Carolina, to succeed
w. L. Webster, deceased. The ap-
pointment was announced shortly be-
fore the departure of the president for
New Haven. With the appointment
the following statement was issued:
"Mr. Rooster is a prominent gold
Democrat and has been recommended
for the position by large number Of
influential business men and repre-
sentative citizens, not only of South
Carolina, but of North Carolina and
elsewhere"
The appointment of Mr.. Rooster
terminates a controversy which be-
gan upon Mr.. Roosevelt's accession to
the presidency. 1t was in connection
with this appointment and that of
Former Governor Jones to a federal
iudgeship in Alabama that the presi-
dent announced that his policy in re-
gard to Southern appointments would
be to name suitable Republicans if
they could be found, and if not to ap-
point Democrats. Mr.. BlalOck, who
has been long identified with the Re
publican party in South Carolina, at
first was understood to be slated for
this position, but Inc president later
decided not to appoint him. Suisse
quently Senator McLaurin, whom the
president con1ulted about the matter,
suggested the name of Mr.. Rooster,
who is known in the state as an indie
pendent Democrat

the Kansas City Star that eff this
thing keeps up there will be little or
no prospect of our electing Democra-

says he found everywhere. He was
surprised at the rush of business and
the buoyant confidence which exist ed
everywhere, and the general feeling
that it would be a good thing to ''let
we'll enough" alone. At all trade CEN
tiers he obtained the same kind of re-
ports and as result became convinced
that there was no show for his party

PIANO COMPANY CRITICISED.
Why the Chase.HaCkIey Co. DID
Not Exhibit.
The Absence of the Piano House From
the Paris Exposition.

In recent article on the Paris ex-
position "The Figaro" writing of the
absence of an exhibit of the Chase
Brothers pianos, said: SIN this
manifestation of genius, unfortunately
one class of Exhibits, that of musical
Instrumentation which all ..musi-
clans hoped to draw information and
lessons of interest, has not had an in
ternational character. Chase Bros
did not respond to our invitation.
There.is not pianist living who has
not felt the Importance of this gap.
Everybody knows that the house of
Chase Bros. has introduced new pro-
cesses nd.traditions into it's art and
we all acknowledge it paramount in
fuence. The house of Chase Bros. has
found itself at the head of it's craft the
world over. We know how it has re-
tanned this position. The simple
words made on the Chase Bros system
are valued recommendation in the
artistic world. The house of ..Chase
Bros which has reformed the institu-
ton of the piano from top to bottom
to which may be attributed every i'm
provement currently adopted has de-
cided that it need not request a new
and superfiuous inducement from a
jury in which for its greater satisfac-
ton there predominates a strong ma
jority of pupils of its own school.

ROBBERS MAKE A HAUL.
Take $4,000 or $1,000 From a Fulda
Bank-.-They Leave no Clue.

Fulda, Mimi, Oct. 22.-During Sun
day night or early Monday morning
robbers made successful haul from
the Farmers bank. 1t is believed,
however, the robbery took place be-
tween 3 and o'clock Monday morn
ing.
An entrance into the bank was
effected through window. Then a
composition of powder was used to
blow off the big outer doors of the
vault. This DONE, the men were face
to face with time steel money chest.
In.the..latter emergency dynamite was
used, and that it proved effectual was
evidenced by the shattered condition
of the safe.
Having accomplished this, it was
an easy matter to abstract the money,
which laid in we'll regulated piles in
the drawers. Not an obstacle pre-
sented itself, and it is supposed that
within half an hour from the time an
entrance was gained into the bank the
robbers were escaping with the swag.
While the bank officials have not as
yet given out an official statement, il
is known that between 81, 600 and So,
900 was taken. 1t is understood that
the institution is insured against the
loss in an indemnity company.
There is absolutely no clue to the
robbers, and there is only one person
who was even disturbed while the men
were at their work. The head of a
family states that he was awakened
by noise about 8 O'Clock Monday
morning. He thought 1T possible that
his horse at the barn had become loose,
and he made hasty investigation.
Finding everything all right at the
barn, he at once returned ITO bed. II
iss.sssupposed that the unusual noise
was caused by the explosion at the
bank.
A farmer living just outside the
town says that between 8 and 40 clock
Monday morning he heard the noise
Of. the wheels of vehicle passing his
house, and that from the sound he
concluded the. horseswss travelling at
a rapid rate. @--@.-~

HORSE RETURNED.
The Elopers Evidently Thought
Themselves Followed.
B. ii. Burrill Will Attach the Former
Kerns Buttermaker's Goods to Pay
for Damages to the Horse.

B. Ell. Burrill of Belgrade, sawhose
horse..was borrowed by J. W. Reynolds,
the clipping buttermaker at Kerns, was
in Mankato Tuesday. His horse and
buggy were delivered to him at eleven
O. clock this forenoon at his farm by
John Reynolds, the Madelia liveryman
whom Runnells paid 81 to care for the
horse and deliver horse and buggy to
the owner.
The horse is practically used up, so
Mr.. Burrill states. He was a very
valuable animal, FIVE years old, and
had been trained on the race course
and had record of 2 30 as a PAGER.
He is now in bad shape and is bleed
ing at the mouth.
Reynolds was seen at four O'Clock
Sunday afternoon with Miss Randall,
running the horse through the Mime,
sofa river in Judson township, and the
indications are that he was driving
through the woods and across fields al
rapid pace. From this it would ap
pear that Runnells thought that he was
being followed. He and Miss Ran
dali drove to Lake Crystal and stopped
at hotel for supper, and then drove
to Madelia, where they caught the
westbound Omaha passenger train al
midnight.
Mr., Burrill believes that the couple
went to Sioux Falls S. D. Mr.. Rey.
nolds' home is at Plankington, S. D.
and his parents are well-to-do. He il
twenty-seven years of age and Mis-
Randall is nineteen He was at Kern
eight months and was first class but
termaker, some of his butter scoring
as high as 90.
Mr.. Burrill intends to proceed
against Reynolds on account of tn,
damage to his horse. Runnells hat
represented that he wanted to drive t.
Mankato and back, and on this under
standing Mr.. Burrill let him have tn
horse Mr.. Burrill proposes to attacl
the property left behind by Reynolds
consisting of a bedstead, bicycle, trunl
| and mandolin.

MIGHT DISRUPT TURKEY.
Reason for Frances Hesitation in Col
Letting Lorando Claim.


Paris, Oct. 22.-The fact that France
has not yet employed coerciye meas
ures to enforce a settlement Of the
Lorando claim by Turkey is due to the
unsettled condition of the interior of
that country. 1t is feared that such
action might bring about the disrup-
ton of Turkey. The disagreement
Of Macedonia, the excuses committed
in Armenia and the dissatisfaction in
the island Of Crete has reached such
O point as to constitute a menace to
peace. The powers, acting on the in
ftiative of Russia and France, are now
discussing the basis of an understand
ing for joint representation to the
porte and for eventually obliging the
sultan not only to carry out the
clauses Of the treaty of Berlin relat-
ing to Macedonia and Armenia, but to
give guarantees for further reforms
and the settlement of numerous pend
ing questions.
The opportunity will be taken to
seek a fresh solution of the Cretan
question. Russia appears to have
sounded Germany on the question and
the adhesion Of Austria and Italy is
considered certain. It is believed that
Lord Salisbury, who proposed the
Armenian reforms of 1894, will sup
port the projected action. France in
the meanwhile does not intend to
waive her right of enforcing her pres
ant claims

GOT THE WRONG HOGS.
Mistake Of Employees in Loading a Car
Causes Trouble.

An unfortunate mistake occurred Mon
day night on the part of Chas. J. Mac
beth's men in making shipment of
hogs to st. Paul. In loading the car,
eight hogs that belonged to John N.
Lang, that were in the Chicago &
Northwestern yards, were loaded into
the Car with carload of hogs and
sheep belonging to Mr.. Macbeth. Mr..
Lang discovered his loss this morning
and reported it to the police. Investi-
cation showed that the matter was
evidently mistake. and Mr.. Macbeth,
when notified, at once took steps to as
certain whether the hogs were in the
car at ST. Paul with his shipment, and
offered to pay for them if they were
there.
Sheriff Gerlich and Mr.. Lang took
the train for st. Paul, after ordering
the Car held, with the intention OF
picking out the hogs.
The mistake is one that Chief
Bowen states is likely to occur at any
time, and it is very much regretted by
Mr.. Macbeth, who was not present
when the Car was loaded.

to the assistant secretaryship of the
reasury pleased hosts Of friends, and,
to those familiar with his ability in
fiscal administration, the salary at.
tached to the Office. 81, 500 per annum,
seems far from large; but to a certain
old lady in Ohio the ract that the boy
she used to know is now drawing that
sum yearly will have all the force Of
sensation.

Allies, knew me when was a bare.
foot urchin, and it is wellnigh impos.
slble for her to associate me with pub.

one, the boundaries of the county have
marked her most adventurous travel

her my accounts of life in Washington,
which l have to make exceedingly
tame lest her wavering faith in my
truthfulness be utterly destroyed, fill
her with vast perplexity and appre-
hension for her country's future. - -

at a similar hour on the goth. The
work of selecting the jury to sign the
