An Old Landmark DESTROYED.

bayfield,. Wis, June 1.-THE old
Roman Catholic church at La Pointe
was totally destroyed by fire yester-
day. The church was an ancient land
mark and had been visited by hun
dreds of tourists annually The orig
inal church was built in 1895 by FIR.
Baraga and rebuilt at later date.
1t contained an ancient painting,
"the descent from the cross" which
Indian tradition says was a gift to the
La Pointe mission in 1869 by Father
Marquette. 1t is the opinion of some
that the picture was stolen and the
church set on fire to cover up the loss.

RUssIA's TAX ON BICYCLES.

New York, June 1S.-According to g Washington dispatch to the Journal of Commerce, the recent action of the Russian government in raising the duty on bicycles when imported from the United States, is likely to be the subject of friendly representations by the department of state. The levy of the special duty seems to be part of the policy of retaliation adopted by the Russian government because of the de- cision of the treasury department that a countervailing duty was levied under the Dingley law upon Russian sugar. The action taken in regard >to the bi- cycles, however, is ascribed to the fact that Russian petroleum is subject to duty on entry into ths Unified States. The right of the Russian government to impose the maximum tariff when it is imposed also upon imports from cer- tain other countries will probably not be disputed by the state department but if the duty on bicycles is aimed at the United States alone it will proper ly be the subject of representation against its continuance.

PRESIDENCY OF CUBA.
People of Cuba Unit for General
 Palma


 New York, June 1S.-The Tribune says: Noratio s. Rubins, formerly counsel to the Cuban junta in this city, who came here a few days ago from Cuba, will return to Cuba this week to report to the friends of General T.. Estarda Palma on the possibility of General Palma's accepting the nomina- ton of the presidency of Cuba. MT Ru- bins says:
 General Palma is not seeking office, but I do not think he will be able to resist the demands of the people of Gu ba. They are almost unit for him. Palma made himself popular with the Cubans by the way he conducted the affairs of the Cuba junta in this city. The only possible opponent of Palma is General Bartholomew Masse, the vice president of the revolutionary pro- visional government in Cuba.
 ''The reason that there was trouble about the acceptance of the P1att amendment by the Cubans was that it was not understood there. The cleo tion will probably be held in the au- tumn and theinauguration of the pres ident will be in January

 Even to Becoming Engaged to 8
 Prominent Young Woman of Butler
 III.
 New York, June 1S.-Ellis Glenn is to be placed on trial for forgery to-day at Parkersburg, W. Va, World dis patch announces. The case is remark able. Glenn is woman, although for many years she was supposed to be man, and was sentenced to the Illinois pcnitentiary as a man.
 In this instance she had been sen tenced to an indeterminate term ot from 1 to 14 years, and for forgery committed in exactly the way as was the forgery of which she is accused at Parkersburg.
 Ellis Glenn, declares that the forgery committed at Hillsboro, III, in 1899, for which she was sent to prison, was committed by her twin brother, E. B. Glenn, of whom she is the counter part; that as her brother was on his way to prison she secreted herself on the train, by agreement with him, and that they exchanged clothing. The brother made his escape and she went on to prison, where her sex was dis covered.
 As there was no woman's depart ment in the penitentiary at Chester, she was returned to the sheriff at Hillsborough. The authorities surmis- ed that she was B. B. Glenn, wanted at Parkersburg for forgery. An off cer from Parkersburg identified her as the supposed man known as E. B. Glenn, and the Illinois authorities sur rendered her to West Virginia. Ellis Glenn declares that she was never be- fore in the region of Parkersburg and that she did not know that her broth CT, Ebert Glenn. was wanted there, or she would not have undertaken to go to prison in Illinois.
 E. B. Glenn, presumably this very woman, was known in half dozen Ohio river towns, where, as a man. she did all kinds of rough work, and finally at Butler, III, built up a good business as sewing machine and real estate agent. She or he became en- gagged to a Miss Duke, daughter of a PAoAHthChl ldl1llIJ, duu even dIIeT n0T arrest for forgery the Dukes stood by her, the father going on her bond. She went to St Louis. ostensibly to pur- chase her trousseau, and caused a re- port to be sent to Butler that she had been drowned. This report aroused suspicion. and she was traced, caught and sentenced, with never a thought by anyone that she was not the man she pretended to he

 Washington, June 1S.-The Russian ambassador, Count Cassini, has com municated to the state department, that in consequence of the action of the American government through a treasury order of Marcn 3 last, apply ing tariff restrictions against Russian petroleum, imported into this country, the Russian minister of fannce, M de Witte has isued an order. dated June ', imposing the high tariff rates of the Russian schedule on American white resin or clafin, galapot, white resin under article S2 of the Russian tariff law and increasing the rates On Ameri- can bicycles under articles 173 of the Russian laws.

PINE HILL A GOLD MINE.
California Miner About Town To-day
 Displaying Valuable quartz.

A man who gave his name as Peter Smith stopped in Exchange place this afternoon and told what appeared to be straight story regarding his ex- periences i'll the mining business. lie carried three parcels and stout stick, and displayed several pieces of quartz which he claimed to be worth consid- erable money. In order to prove that the goods be carried was genuine he took a magnifying glass from his pocket and wanted a Democrat re- porter to satisfy himself that the sam pies were the real thing. He said he had just came down from Baldwin street, where well-known resident of that place had robbed him of piece of quartz worth $1,000, and that if it was not returned before night he in- tended to see the authorities about it. He declared that there are millions of dollars worth of gold and silver ore hidden under that big hill on the Abri- gador, and that if he can induce a few men to go into the business with him he will work it. He spent years min ing in California and knows all about how the work is carried on. The re- porter. inquired regarding the location of the hill on the Abrigador where the gold and silver ore is hidden, and while the man did not know it by name still he made it plain that he had refer ence to what is commonly known as Pine Hill. This is not the first time the statement has been made that there is fortune in that hill, and for all anyone can tell it may turn out to be true. Smith appears to be q wan derer and says he takes delight in tramping about through the rural dis trfcts prospecting, and that he knows of dozen places between here and Torrington where there are just as good gold and silver mines as can. be found in any part of the world. He is 2 tall, thin man, very feeble and his hands tremble so that he can scarcely hold anything in them. He is enthu- siastic on the mining question, and appears to want nothing but the back ing to put him in position to become q millionaire without going outside of the town of Waterbury.
