With Apologies to the Houston

There was fair maid Of Viniia,
But bathing was not her rule,
She never would dress in bathing
suit,
Or sport in the Artesian pool,
No! No. this maid was not so Icool,
But rather warm and foxy miss
For never donnink bathing lsuit.

. Brilliant Affair.

Reception to the Presidential Party
. Brilliant Affair.
Austin, Tex, May 6.-out Of Dixie
tie presidential party yesterday trav-
eled into the heart Of the great South
west. The presidents reception in the
Lone Star State was q continuation of
the ovation he has received throughout
the South. Every honor was shown
him and his party and there was much
enthusiasm. Gov. sayers and other
prominent state officials met the pres
ident at Houston, the first stopping
place inside the state, and acoompa-
MED him as far as Austin, the capital.
There were some interesting features
at the reception at Houston, and q
very picturesque scene at Prairieview,
where the president addressed the COL
ored students Of the state normal
school. At every station along the
route there were cheering crowds. The
feature Of the day was the reception
accorded the party at Austin, which,
like New Orleans, had never before
mad the honor Of entertaining a chief
magistrate Of the nation. The city
was profusely decorated and in the
evening there was a brilliant illumina-
ton Of congress avenue. Austin
before held such crowds Of people.
They came from every direction, some
hundreds. Of miles, and literally
swamped the hotel accommodations Of
the city. 1t was estimated that over
20,e80 visitors were here. AS the popu-
lation Of Austin is only $4,000, the tax
upon its facilities can be imagined.

pERIsHED IN A sNowsLIDE.

Seven Persons Buried, Five Of
Whom Lost Their lives.
Seattle. Wash, May S.-Particulars
Of the snowslide reported to have oc-
CURED at Sunrise City, Alaska, about
March 20, were received yesterday by
mail. The slide did not occur at Sum
rise, but at Smiths Camp on Lynx
creek, twenty-five miles above Sun
rise. Five persons lost their lives. The
slide started on the side Of an adjacent
mountain and came laundering down
over a cliff into the camp beneath, a
sheer fall Of 600 feet. There had been
nothing to give the men warning of
their danger, and the first known Of
the catastrophe was when they heard
the roar Of the great body sliding
down the mountain. There were at the
camp in all seven men, two besides the,
five who were killed. The entire seven
were buried under the mass, but Frank
Fleehardy. a. strong young man. was
o buried so deeply as the rest and
after six hours Of hard work succeed
ed in getting out of the slide. AS soon
as he reached the surface he began
with others to dig for his comrades.
The first man reached was Gilbert
Devoe. Beyond q number of severe
cuts and bruises and the fact that he
raj seriously %frostbitten, Devoe was
all right. and will recover although he
was under the snow sixteen hours.
The others were dead when the rescu-
ing party reached their bodies.

Pekin, May 1.-THE American cav.
airy and artillery, which has been or
dered to leave China, has just left
here for Tien-tsin. The men will
march to that place, carrying ten days
concentrated rations. They marched
yesterday to Tong Ku. These cavalry
men were extremely popular here, and
the cleanliness and order Of their camp
arrangements were much praised. I'm.
posing farewell ceremonies attended
their departure. Sir Alfred Gaselee
and other British generals with their
STATS were present and the British
commander sent a detachment of
Baiuchis, who escorted the Americans
outside the city walls. Gen.. Chaffee
publicly thanked the cavalry and ar
tillery for their services in the interna-
tional relief expedition and for their
behavior since, which has been, he
said. a credit to themselves and their
nation. The infantry and %headquar.
tiers staff will leave by rail as soon as
the transports arrive at Taku.
General Disorder Feared.
Reports have been received that the
districts along the line of march of the
German troops returning from the
west have been largely deserted by
their inhabitants. There has been
much communicating by them. They
required supplies and transportation
from one mandarin, who, fearing that
compliance with The demands made
upon him were impossible, committed
suicide. Other districts are reported
to e greatly disturbed by disbandeo
soldiers and banditti. One district re-
quested aid from the French soldiers,
who, upon arriving there, had a fight
with the outlaws and sustained some
loss. Two of their officers were killed.
These reports Of disturbance are held
to show that there will be disorders in
every direction should the evacuation
Of foreign troops begin without ar
ranging for the return Of a sufficient
Chinese force to maintain order.
To Open Up Manchuria.
London, May TT am informed by
a high native oflcial,' says a Shanghai
correspondent of the Times, "that
China has approached the power sug-
costing a complete reopening of Man
churia to the enterprise Of all coun-
tries, and that replies have been re-
ceived from Japan, the United States
and Great Britain. Japan cordially p
proves the suggestion. The United
States government generally assents,
but suggests an application of the
principle to the whole empire. Great
Britain approves. 1t is feared, how
ever, that. Russia will object. The
chamber Of and the British
and American associations are vfgor-
ously protesting against the proposed
increase Of the customs tariff to 10
ner cent" =

Paris, May 1.-THE Eclair says that
the situation in the Ivory Coast colony,
West Africa, is reported more critical.
Various engagements are reported to
have taken place in the Baule regions
between the insurgents and the French
troops. The latter, 1t Is said, encoun-
tered desperate resistance and were
hard pressed. Some officers of the
French force are said to have been
wounded. Gen. Combes, 1t is stated, Is

The Trade Cannot U~nderstand His
Corn Deal.
Chicago, May 8.-George n. Phillips
has taken a reef in the sails of the
May o deal, and, according to the
views of traders we'll posted in the
market, the young SPECTATOR, who so
far has succeeded in steering his bull
campaign with safety, despite bear at
tacks. heavy margins. callings and
large deliveries, intends to sail closer
to the wind from now until May 81.
Increased receipts are said to have
caused the corn king to change his
course. That Phillips is keenly alive
to the new conditions was evident yes
terday, when he let the May price go
unsupported. AS a result, it broke to
the extent of 3 cents on the initial
trading, touching so cents. 1t reacted
somewhat from the low point on light
trading, in which Phillips took little
part, except to sell a small lot here
and. there. The trade is puzzled over
Phillips attitude in the market.

No Omcial Proportion for n New
Naval Treaty.
Washington, May 8. - It is learned
from an authoritative source that be-
fore Secretary Hay left here for the
West he had several conferences with
Lord Pauncefote relative to the basis
for another Isthmian canal treaty, and
that an unofficial written memoran-
dun also was submitted to Lord
Pauncefote On the subject. The am
bassador has made known the general
results Of these conversations and Of
the memorandum to the authorities in
London, and it is doubtless to this that
allusion is made in the London dis
patches. It is said. however, hat the
negotiations are 60 tentative and in.
formal that they are mo- regarded as
an official exchange or proposition.

than >on Saturday, at 127 1-2. The deal
ings in it were in excess Of 100000

the most remarkable the stock ex-
change has ever witnessed, and, what
is more remarkable than the magnik
tude of the dealings and the extent of
the fluctuations, is the fact that they
were no accompanied by any explana-

that could be considered as plausible.
