A Highland laird who could not afford
to keep his own piper was accustomed
to employ the village piper when he had

On one occasion, through some over

found his bagpipe in most refractory
temper. The laird asked him what was
the matter with them. and Donald replied
that the leather was so hard that he

The sentiments of the people as to the
continuance of the war are by no
means unanimous. Not long ago two
Transvaal women C"black cappies)

fell to discussing the situation of af-
fairs. One said: Il have lost all hope.
Let the English take the land and let
US get back to our homes. 1 should

bands on commando, begging them to
submit and end the war. Otherwise,
I should like the English to send US
back to our own people in commando
to be looked after They could not feed
US, and they could not see US die Of
starvation, and that would be the
means of ending the war" The other
woman replied: Il would not sign
such a document. I am not without

Another noticeable social feature OF
the camp is that the Free Staters and

to have Czolgosz buried in the ocean
that his bones may not mingle with
American soil. This is going a little
too far. Everything has its use, and
as Czolgosz has proved himself good

Forty.Two Persons Were Injured

CHICAGO, Marcn l3.-By the ex'
plosIon of q boiler In the Doremus
laundry, 46S West Madison street,
this morning, eight persons were In.
stantly killed, Az were injured. and
several are missing.
The cause OF the explosion has not
been determined with accuracy az
yet, and 1t will probably require an
official Investigation TO settle the
matter.
Reports of the number Of dead In
the ruins run all the way from six TO
20. II Is known that 80 employees OF
the laundry had entered the place
before the explosion occurred, be.
cause the automatic tlmekeeper found
in the ruins showed that number oil
registered arrivals. Two or three
were entering at the moment OF the
explosion, making the approximate to-
tai Of 40 employees In and around the
building.
II is reported that an officer OF the
boiler inspection department warned
Mr.. Doremus that the boiler was un'
safe to use in It's present condition.
Laundry employees. however, declare
that the boiler had not been inspect
ed, and therefore not condemned.
The wreckage near the boiler and
in the east part Of the building at
once took fire, and through the blind.
ing clouds OF dust and smoke and
escaping steam could be seen strug'
Cling men and women, some or them
half buried In wreckage, others feeDly
endeayoring to climb to some place Of
safety. while from various parts OF
the ruins came cries for help.
The fire department soon extin.
guished the flames and the work OF
rescue began at once. One by one
the wounded and bleeding girls were
carried to nearby stores, where they
were given hasty medical attention
and then taken to hospitals In am
balances.

iiled after several amendments had
been adopted. The chief issue was
made on what was known as the
Davis amendment. While IN terms
this did not give the United States
right to fortify the canal. yet In
general language II expressed the
right OF this country to adopt such
measures in regard TO the canal as
we're deemed necessary for the proper
maintenance OF American authority.
After extended debate In executive
session two other amendments we're
adopted. and the treaty was ratified
as amended. The other two amend
ments ahrogated the Clayton Bulwer
treaty and struck out the provision
of the treaty which invited other for
