ARE WHITE MuLeERRlEs.
Identity Of Famous "Artic Berries"
is Established.

# ..H
During the past week or ten days
DR.. B~lankenship, the botanist at the
college, has received a number of in.
quiries from all over the state with
reference to the "Artic berry, says
a Bozeman dispatch. Every member
of the staff at the experiment station
was ignorant Of the existence of such
a berry and through the press of the
state asked for information in re
gard to this new species of fruit. The
trees had been sold through the sew
eral counties of the state and it is
understood the 'fakirs'' are still at
work.
Friday Mr.. Tedrick, a well known
farmer living within a few miles of
this city, vas in town and stated that
he had purchased some of the So
called Attic berry trees about a year
ago from a man named Adams, paying
for them at the rate of about 80 cents
apiece. Adams stated that the trees
would grow five feet the first year
and attain a height of nine feet the
second year, when they would bear
the mysterious fruit which was claim
ed to be a cross between five or six
kinds of small fruits. The trees Sc
cured by Mr.. Tedrick were nearly all
killed by frost the first year and the
few remaining died a few days ago
from the effects of a light frost.
A we'll known nurseryman saw the
shrubs and pronounced them white
mulberries and totally unfit for this
climate. Adams claimed that some
body spent nine years trying to pro-
duce the Attic berry and that the
trees had been reared at a very high
altitude in Colorado. The people who
peddled the fraud have evidently
done a good business with the farm
ers of the state, as they have sold
hundreds of mulberry slips for 80
cents each.
While peddling them in Madison,
Carbon and Yellowstone counties
Adams claimed that the Attic berry
had been raised in the Gallatin val
ley and here he claimed that Idaho
was their native place.

JACOB LosEkAMP E A
Well Known Former Citizen Passes
to Other Shore.

to Other Shore.
From Sundays Daily Gazette. /,
A telegram was received yesterday
by the Hon. John D. Losekamp in.
forming him of the death of his faith.
er, Jacob Losekamp, which occurred
at Los Angeles, Cali, the day before,
The deceased was we'll known in this
city, particularly by the older set
tiers, having come here from Dead
wood in 1882, accompanied by his
son., Gus. He embarked in business
here and made this city his home un-
til about two years ago, when he re-
moved to Los Angeles. where he con-
tinued to reside with the son who
was his companion in the long trip
they made by team from the Black
Hills when coming to Montana.
Mr.. Losekamp was a little over IS
years of age and up to within a very
short time ago had always been in
the best of health. The first intima-
ton of his illness was received a few
days ago, when Mr.. Losekamp was
informed by wire by his brother that
their father was not expected to live
much longer, having been taken with
a stroke of apoplexy and was in a
private hospital. a
For many years deceased had made
his home in the region west of the
Missouri, principally in Kansas, where
he was engaged in business at Leav-
enworth. In the later seventies he
removed to Deadwood, taking with a
stock of boots and shoes. He remain
ed in that place until the extension
of the Northern Pacific caused many
of the people of the Black Hills to re-
move to various towns in this state
along the line of that road. With
others he selected Billings as the
town offering the most inducements
for those wishing to engage in the
mercantile business and until his re-
moval to California was one of the &C.
tive merchants of the city.
Mr.. Losekamp was one of the few
remaining survivors of the Mexican
war, having enlisted at Pittsburg at
the beginning of that war and at the
time OF his demise was drawing a pen
sion from the government for the
services he rendered while campaign
ing in Mexico. He was an honest,
upright man and a good citizen and
not only had the respect and admira-
ton of all who knew him, but also
their sincere regard and affection.
In addition to the son who was
with him at the time of his death the
deceased is also survived by Mr.. John
D.. and Miss Florence Losekamp, both
of whom reside here.

NEW YORK. June 10.-The Rev. II.
j.. Won Brockhuizen of Pretoria, South
Africa, the minister who closed the volks-
raad with prayer after President kru-
gers ultimatum had been read to that
body, is in this city. His brother, DIR.
II. j. Won Brockhuizen of the Orange
Free State, who served in the Boer ar

this country is to raise money for the
Boor women and children now in refuge
camps. Rev. DIR. Won Brockhuizcn said

present concentrated in camps establish
ed by the British, are in horrible con-
dition. 1t was bad enough when | left

day from my sister, that it is hundred
times worse now"

he says he was virtually banished by
order Of General Maxwell. military gov
ernor of Pretoria. General Maxwell
wrote him that he had better leave the
country and provided second cabin

DIR. Won Brockhuizen said further of the
camps;
"ln an official report made by DIR. Ro-
nald p. Mckenzie of the British army on
Feb. IS of this year the British govern
ment is notified that the conditions are
horrible, the death rate appalling and

The Afrikanders, Rev. DIR. Won Brock

all reports to the contrary are false. The
Boer army numbers $1,000 to 1000
men and is constantly being augmented
by Cape Colony Beers. The Boer forces
are now armed with Lee-Metford rifles,
he says, and they have tons of ammuni-
ton buried, which they can use at any
time against the British.

Well known,

PITTSBURG, June 10.-Major w. II.
DAILY, surgeon general on the staff of
Lieutenant General Miles in Porto Rico,
committed suicide at his home here yes
terday by shooting himself in the right
temple. The body of the doctor was
found in the bathroom by Miss Mary
Short, the housekeeper, lying in a pool
of blood. with n .3S caliber revolver lying
on the floor. DR.. Foster, who was sum.
moned at once, found the bullethole in
the temple and announced that death
had taken place several hours before.
Miss Short then remembered hearing a
sharp report at about 1880 a. m, but
thought it was the quick closing of Il
window by some one.
No cause is known for DIR. Days deed,
unless 1t be that insomnia drove him to
temporary insanity. The doctor was n
widower and leaves no immediate fami-
ly. He was 80 years OF age and for
many years had been prominent in medi-
cal circles. He gained international
prominence during the Cuban war, as 1t
was his report to the commanding gem
eral of the army that started the ''em-
balmed beef" investigation.

ALABAMA's CONSTITUTION.
A Sweeping Suffrage scheme-Crimi-
mails and Negroes barred.

MONTGOMERY, Ala, Jhne i2.-The
first part of the new constitution was
adopted yesterday by the constitutional
convention The Office of lieutenant gov
ernor was created and the governors sal
airy raised from $1,000 to $1,000. The
terms of the executive officers were
heightened from two to four years, but
they are ineligible for reelection.
The governor cannot become candi-
date for United States senator within one
year of the expiration of his term.
The most sweeping suffrage scheme yet
brought forward was that introduced by
Burns of Burnsville. 1t provScs that the
following classes shall not vote:
"Those who are bastards or loafers or
who may be infected with any loathesome
or contagious disease.
"Those who have been convicted Of
treason. bribery, forgery. larceny, rob
berry, bigamy. seduction. incest, murder,
rape or attempt to rape, arson or bur
glary.
"Those who are descendants OF parents
who are of or descendants of two or more
different races those who shall have mar
ried any woman having living husband
from whom she has not been legally di-
vorced: those who have committed any
assault and battery on wife or step
daughter"
This law destroys 30 per cent of the
negro vote. and the ex-slaves who are not
debarred will be less than per cent.

Lutte yesterday afternoon the officials OF
the Pittsburg Coal company issued an or
der refusing to allow any more men to en-
ter the shaft, as the danger was too great.
They are now considering the advisability
of flooding the mine for the purpose of
extinguishing the fire. There is now no
hope of rescuing the entombed men.
Harry Beverdge and Arthur Smith can
not live. Twelve of the dead were men
who went into the mine as rescuers. What
caused the explosion and loss of life is
something the mine inspectors of the
Ninth and Eleventh districts spent the
greater part of the day trying to find out.
The officials of the coal company declare
that none but regulation mine lamps were
used, while others are of the opinion that
one of the men carelessly lit n match
which ignited gas and caused one of the
greatest catastrophes in the history of
Westmoreland county.
