Wednesday.

Webster City, Sept. 2s.-The Thirty
seventh senatorial district democratic
convention is called to meet in this city
Wednesday, Sept. %. The adjourned
session of the republican senatorial con-
yention Of this same district was also
held here. Webster City is the best anu
most centrally located convention city
in the district.
The democratic nomination IS stu
seeking the man, tho the convention is
but two days off. The nomination is
but an empty honor at the most. The
republican majority in this district can
not be overcome. A lamb for the sacri-
flee will be found AS to who 1t may be,
however, cannot be foretold before the
convention meets.

FrightfulIy MangIed.

Great Falls, Mont, June lis. w. d.
Kerns, jig tender at the concentration of
the Boston & Montana smelter, was the
victim of frightful accident while at
work. He was inspecting one of the ma
chimes in his charge when the belt from
one of the pulleys on the main shaft to
the machine beneath slipped off the ma
chine and struck him. 1t continued to re-
volve at speed of 400 revolutions min
ute, and when it struck Kerns it caught
him by the right arm, twisting the men,
Der so suddenly and with such terrific force
that it drew the unfortunate man from the
floor almost to the ceiling, where it hurled
him against large pipe.
The sudden twisting of the arm tore it
from the body of the man and the force
with which he struck the pipe broke his
leg in several places below the knee. The
first intimation any of Kerns' fellow
workmen had of an accident was when
the dismembered arm fell from the body
and struck one of the men on the head 1t
was but an instant after the belt struck
Kerns that he fell senseless and bleeding
to the floor. Kerns is 2S years of age and
Single. He will probably die.

REFUGE CAMPS IN BAD shape

New York, June 11.-Rev. Won

RIGA, 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, DR..
H. j. Won Bruckhuison of the Orange
Free State, who served IN the Boer
armies, accompanied him. Their mis-
sion in this country is to raise money
for the Boer women and children now
In refuge camps.
Rev. Won Bruckhuison said in an in
terview: "Our women and children
who are at present concentrated in
camps established by the British, are
in horrible condition. 1t was bad
enough when l left South Africa. but l
know from letters that / have received
one only the other day from my sis
ter-that it is a hundred times worse
now"
When the doctor left South Africa
he said he was virtually banished by
order of General Maxwell, military gov
ernor of Pretoria.
DR.. Won Bruckhuison said further Of
the camps: "In an official report made
by DR.. Donald P. Mckenzie of the Brit
ish army on February Is of this year
the British government is notified that
the conditions are horrible, the death
rate appalling and the food furnished
unfit to eat"
The Afrikanders, DR.. VonBruckhui-
son AYERS, will never be overcome and
all reports to the contrary are false.
The Boer army numbers from $4,000
to 1900 men, and is constantly being
augmented by Cape Colony Beers. The
Boer forces are now armed with Lee
Metford rifles, he says, and have tons
of ammunition buried, which they can
use at any time against the British.

The war office authorities say they have

Standerton last Wednesday, and the re
port of tentative settlement between the

Mrs. Botha's arrival in London has, never
theless, revived peace rumors, to which
publicity has been given on several occa
sions recently. 1t is impossible to say
what exactly is going on, but the genera
opinion is that there must be some foun
dation for the rumors. Mrs. Botha's visit
is still shrouded in secrecy, and although
it is freely stated that she is on a peace
mission no definite information can be oh
tanned.

n END BR|1ISH.BOER WAR
STATEMENT BY Won BUE1ow.
Arbitration Court at The Hague Ia
Said to Have Taken Up the Matter
With Consent Of Emperor William
AT the Request Of BOer Leaders.

Berlin, June little Kelins Journal
prints dispatch from The Hague saying
that Queen Wilhelmina's recent visit here
was meant to obtain Emperor William
assistance to end the South African war,
both the zweibund and the dreibund be-
ing willing to do so through The Hague
arbitration court, and That he emperor
consented and the court began work there
on. The dispatch has created sensation
here.
,rhe Associated Press has just obtained
the following statement from the foreign
office, which is authorized by Count Won
Buelow, the imperial chancellor:
"Neither Great Britain, France nor Rus
STA approached Germany to participate in
any action aiming at ending the South
African war. Germany has all along dis
tinguished between offering her good Off
ces and intervention. To render her good
offices would be possible, if both parties
to the war requested it, but it will be re-
membered that Great Britain only joined
The Hague conference on condition that
the Boer states were excluded. There is
no doubt that Mr. Kruger, who is a Sc
rious statesman, came to Europe to obtain
the good offices of several of the powers
to end the war, but there is also no doubt
that Great Britain does not want their
good offices.
| cat least it is true that, since the
South African war began, Great Britain
has never, either verbally or in writing,
confidentially or officially, preached such
an idea. 1t is quite possible that the Boer
side has now formally asked The Hague
arbitration court to lend its aid to end
the war somehow, and that the court has
held session regarding the matter, but
that, of course, is entirely different from
any serious steps to end the war;"
Mrs. Botha to Meet Kruger.

Mrs. Botha starts Wednesday for The
Hague, where Mr.. Kruger has been sum
moned to attend a conference of the Boel
agents in Europe and the United States

drought from her husband in which he ad
vises Mr.. Kruger, as the constitutional
head of the Tmnsvaal, to sue for peac'
and the best terms obtainable.
