ing along the route of the Nicaragua
canal project as 1t approaches the COM
ing Congress. All of the original friends
of the canal who have recently visited
Washington are confident that the
canal will be created into law during
the coming session. On the other
hand, when you come in contact with
some of those who are indirectly an
tagonistic to the canal. they are ready
with ifs ''ands' and butts" why i'm
mediate action may not be expected.
The same old excuses and subterfuges
are advanced which have seen service
ever since the caanl proposition be-
came a national issue.
There is double dealing and duplic-
ity within the ranks of the supposed
friends of the canal and those who are
sincerely in favor of the building of
this great waterway are aware of the
fact, but il is exceedingly difficult to
directly locate the offenders. Time and
time again, your correspondent has
polled the Senate and House Of Repre-
sentatives on this subject and found an
overwhelming majority in both houses
favorable to the canal. In the House.
more than three-fourths of the members
when interviewed on the subject, de-
clared themselves favorable to govern
ment ownership of the canal. In the
Senate, four-fifths of the Senators eX-
pressed themselves favorably to the
canal But strange as it may appear.
it has been an utter impossibility dur
ing the past eight or ten years to get
the Senate to go on record in a test
vote on the plain question of whether
the Nicaragua canal as proposed shall
be built, owned and controlled by the
United States government.

COL. LIVINGSTON HAS A COLD.
But He Is still HustIing for Pap for
His Commitments.

His Constituents.
Washington. Oct. 17.-Representative
Livingston is nursing a severe cold
which he contracted several days ago,
and is going about town wrapped in
a big overcoat, shivering and COM
planning of aches and pains in every
part of his body. He is struggling to
ward off a recurrence of his recent ILL
ness and at the same time keep up
with an immense amount of routine
departmental business on his hands.
1t is understood that the Attorney
General has under consideration the
selection of a chaplain for the military
prison at Atlanta, and as Representa-
tive Livingston has an interest in the
choice soon to be made, it is necessary
for him to be constantly on the lookout
for developments in that matter. AL
though no definite choice has yet been
announced, it is stated at the depart
ment of justice that Attorney General
Knox has very kindly feeling for
Rev. DR.. Upper of Atlanta, and 1t
would not surprise those who are in
terested in the chaplaincy If Mr.. Tup-
per should eventually be appointed.
There are a number of applicants for
the place, many of them backed by
strong religious and political influence,
hence the Attorney General is giving
the subject deliberate consideration.

A ROTTEN STATE OF AFFAIRS.
Alaska Justice and Highway Rob-
bery Pretty Close Kin.

San Francisco, Oct. 1.-THE answers
of United States Judge Noyes and Dis
trict Attorney Wood of Alaska to the
charge of contempt of court in the
Nome mining cases was filed in the
United States Circuit Court to-day.
The taking of testimony was begun be-
fore United States Commissioner Hea-
cock. W. T. Hume, formerly
deputy district attorney. testified that
J. K. Wood, one of the defendants,
was admitted into his firm as a silent
partner with the understanding that
he was to receive one-fourth of the
profits. Mr.. Hume stated that later
Alex Mckenzie came TO him and his
assistants and asked that he be taken
in as a silent partner under the same
conditions as Mr.. Wood. The money
representing quarter inter-
est in the profits was
to be turned over to him, but Mr..
Hume added that limitations were
made regarding Judge Noyes all
through the conversation. Mr.. Hume
testified that the receiver stated that
he needed that money. and he was
then taken in as a partner with the
understanding that all the business
possible would be thrown in the way
of the firm. Mr.. Hume testified re-
garding the manner in which claims
were made to mining property, and Mr.
Mckenzie appointed receiver.
Men were Immediately taken to the
claims and placed in charge under au-

ct FER WEDDING GARB,
Groom I'm slippers, Corduroys, Tn
dershirt and Overcoat and No
Socks.
From the New York Herald.

From the New York Herald
OF all the grotesque garbs that ever
clothed bridegroom at the altar, that
Of Carlo Grille, of Paterson, N. J..
comes first. He wore a red flannel
undershirt, corduroy trousers. slippers
without stockings and a fur trimmed
overcoat. He was married few min
utes before twelve o'clock Saturday
night to Miss Minna Boissott by Jus
tice William Coughlan. Of Paterson.
His strange attire was not a matter
of choice but of necessity. Grille has
lived for years with an aunt Mrs
Philomena Minot. al No. 119 Beckwith
avenue. She takes more interest in
her nephew at times than he appre-
ciates. She was determined that Grille
should not marry. But he had planned
secret nuptials for Saturday night and
made all arrangements.
After supper Grille went TO his room.
never suspecting that his aunt knew
aught of his purpose. But the pros
pective bride was so happy that she
had told some of her close companions
and the news reached the ears of the
aunt. A few minutes after Grille went
up stairs he left his room with moth
ing but a bathrobe and slippers on.
This was the aunts opportunity. She
slipped into his room and found all
the wedding clothes spread out on the
bed. She took them and locked them
where he could not get at them. Then
she went 10 bed.
Grille saw that he had been outwit-
ted, but determined that the marriage
should not be postponed. In a closet
he found an old red undershirt, a pair
of superannuated corduroy trousers,
and a worn out fur trimmed overcoat.
Clad in this fantastic garb he made
his way by side streets to the Office
Of the justice. and found the bride, in
tears. waiting for him. She feared
that he was not coming and that the
aunt had persuaded him 10 back out
at the last minute.
Friends who had gathered found IL
hard TO suppress their laughter dur
ing the ceremony. but all heartily con-
graduated the man, who let nothing
stop him from getting married. When
the aunt heard how her plans had been
frustrated she was the first to con-
graduate the young couple, saying
that she was not opposed TO the mar
rage.

herderS are as great as those of their
respective callings- From the very ma
ture of his occupation the cowboy is a

He breaks the savage and almost
untamab1e ponies to the saddle and
then rides them. His work is swift
and vigorous, and his charges are the
great, strong, free bulls and cows that
have never known the touch of the hui
man hand. He lives and endures hard
ships with others of his kind, and his
pleasures are as fierce as his work His
is the strenuous life.
The sheep herder, on the other hand,
pursues his solitary occupation afoot
his only companions being a dog and
the thousands of stupid sheep, which
have no individuality, and are mad

very loneliness of his occupation has
made the herder either a morose and

How sheep Are OFTEN Killed.
The west still rings with the stories
of the conflicts between the COW men
and the sheep raisers- When the hocks
began to grow in the west the COW
men fought the herders individuals.
Their resentment was at first merely
personal
Whenever a cowboy found a flock OF
sheep the range he stood on and
with his rife picked of sheep after
sheep until he had exhausted his am
munition. When he could shoot no
more he rode off, greatly pleased to
think that he had left behind a badly
scared shepherd and had caused loss
to the sheep owner. If the herder
showed fight he, too, was killed
a clever cowboy discovered a sure
method of scattering a flock of sheep
and making 1t move on He gathered
up q few hundred head of wild steers
and with his companions drove them

yer was usually SO successful that 1t
became a favorite source of amusement

The days of the free range" when

In the summer they drifted from Tex

Then came the settler. and while he

AuctIoned On.
Unlike good wine. princesses of an
cient Egyptian lineage do not appear
to increase in value with time; at
least, that was the experience of one
of the daughters of Rameses IL, when
she was offered at auction by Mr. J. G.
Stevens at his well-known rooms, King
street. Covent Garden Perhaps this
was because she was unable to put the
dots to the is and the crosses to the is
of the auctioneer's eu1ogy of her vari-
interesting points. a circumstances
not to be wondered at, considering she
has been dead and muE1mif1ed since,
circa, 1888 B. C.. But in spite of her
antiquity, the eager crowd of bargain
hunters at Mr.. Stevens wonderful sale
probably knew more about her, in
some respects, than she had ever known
herself; for the X-rays OF modern
science had been brought to bear upon
her cerementS, with the result that
photographs of the body beneath had
been obtained showing the position OF
the bones. In spite, however, of this,
there seemed to be no particular de-
mand for her remains, and if her
spook happened to be pervading the
fragrant neighborhood of Covent Gar
den at the time it must have had it's
feelings hurt at seeing the Tot go for
ten guineas. Rameses II. is reputed to
have had a good many children, but

ten guineaS. And she was remarkably
