 MEXICO CITY.
Tn His Address He Also Referred Most Feelingly and Cordially tp the "Great Northern
 Republic.

Mexico City. Oct. 26.-This morning the members of the Mexican delegation to the Pan-American Congress met infor- mally their foreign colleagues to receive suggestions as to the amendments to the proposed regulations of the conference, especially to Chapter 3. with respect to the formalities of the sessions. and an amendment that has very strong support. It Is one in favor of throwing open the sessions to the representatives of the press instead of their being secret.
 This afternoon the delegates attended a reception given by Minister of Foreign Relations Mariscal and Mrs. Mariscal. in the department of foreign relations. The best of Mexican society was also present. Mrs. Mariscal. herself Wash ington woman, did the honors charming ly. Light refreshments were provided.
 No end of talk Is heard today about speech of General Raefel Reyes. delegate from Colombia. at a banquet given by the City Council of Mexico. in honor of the delegates to the Pan-American confer ence. General Reyes was responding to the toast of the delegates and was speak ing for those from the United States as we'll as the Spanish Americans. In this capacity he paid a warm tribute to Spain. speaking in part as follows:
 'rhe royal. and at the same time. kind
  to the nations of the continent discovered by Columbus, represented here by our selves, is an eloquent proof that the isola- ton in which we have lived hitherto has not effaced the feeling of affection proper to the children of a common mother. Spain, who gave to us her language, her religion, her blood and her traditions, and who now, tired with her past glories, will feel that we, her descendants, are not ungrateful, and that on the occasion of our first meeting in this hospitable land, side by side with the representa- tives of the great Northern republic and those of Brazil and Hayti, we send an enthusiastic greeting. as we'll as to For tugai, the colonizer of Brazil and dis coverer of the Indies and southern shores of Africa. In this greeting I am sure we shall be willingly joined by the delegates of the great Northern republic. where everything that is great and noble re- ceives generous welcome, and because the program of that republic is progress, civilization and justice."
 The Marquis de Prat, Spain's Minister, arose and thanked General Reyes. It has been currently reported that the mis- sion of the Marquis was specially 10 watch the Pan-American conference.
 Several of the Central and South American delegates to the Pan-American Congress have been arranged with the family of the late Ambassador Romero to proceed tomorrow to the cemetery, where he is buried, near the city. and deposit flowers on his grave, as a tribute to their esteem for the late Ambassador of Mexico at Washington.

PRAIRIE FIRE IN NEBRASKA
1T is MONSTER PRAIRIE FIRE.
District 100 Miles in Length and 40
Miles Wide Observation-Disclosures
Are Unable to Check the Flames
Loss VIII Be Enormous.

Lincoln, Neb, April 2S.-A Journal spe-
cial from Hyannis, Neb., says:
For the last three days the sandhills
of this section of the state have been a
seething sea of fire. About noon Thursday
lightning set fire to the range in several
places. AT first it got under Roadway in
Spring and Blackboard valleys, and with
a heavy southwest wind the fire was driven
to the Burlington road, three miles east Of
Whitman.
A change of the wind at this time car
ried it rapidly into the best cattle dis
tricts of Grant and Mcpherson counties.
A second branch had burned nearly 80
miles in a westerly course and has not
yet been put out. Another branch OF
the fire swept the valleys. The ranch
men have been unable thus far to check
the flames.
A district of about 100 miles in length
and 40 miles in width has been swept
of prairie grass that for month tc
come would serve as the only food fol
cattle. 1t is impossible to estimate the
damage that has been done. 1t i.
thought that heavy loss of stock viii
be the consequence.

when a friend urged me to try DIR.

Previous to this three doctors had
treated me- They diagnosed my trouble
as heart disease, together with con
sumption, and prescribed accordingly.
All this medical treatment did not
benefit me in the least. l was in
terrible condition. There was scarce
ly any blood left in my body. My
chief trouble was weakness, and after
laborious efforts to get up stairs
almost went into faint and on sew
eral occasions thought l was going to

were almost transparent, and my
complexion was as white as a sheet.

but after repeated treatment by my
physicians L became thoroughly dis
couraged.
cit was at this time that DIR. Will
liams' Pink Pills were recommended
to me, and l procured bx. Before
l had finished it l began to feel the
benefit to my health. This gave me
encouragement, and l began a sys-
tematic course according to directions.
At the end of the seventh or eighth
box, in addition to having a sufficient
quantity and better quality of blood
in my veins l was relieved of that
shortness of breath and quick heart
action which had been my chief trou-
BILE. My appetite returned, and was
enabled to do my daily duties with
cheerfulness which had never before
experienced. l always, as a prevent

are represented to be, and to them,
and to them alone, do l owe my res
toration to health.

II WAS AN UNLUCKY TRAIN
SEVERAL MEN WERE KILLED.
Great Northern Eastbound Freight
Man Lay Across Track and Run
OVERHEAD Rail Wrecked Cars
Two Tramps Fatally Injured.

Cut Bank, Mont, April 2S.-When En-
gneer Morris, with engine 279, pulled
out of Kalispell on No. Is, Great North
ern eastbound fast freight, he had a hoodoo
somewhere aboard his engine, for he had
as unlucky trip as usually falls to the
lot of one train.
Passing down the hill three miles east
of Columbia Falls the engineer saw a
man lying alongside the track with his
head on the rail. He reversed his engine
and applied the air brake, but the mo-
mentum of the train was so great that
he was unable to stop in time. The pilot
of the engine struck the man on the
head, knocking him to one side. 1t was
found that he had been struck by some
train earlier in the evening and had both
his feet cut off. The loss of blood and
subsequent injuries no doubt will prove
fatal His name is unknown. An empty
whisky bottle found in his clothes told
the story of how he came there.
Three miles east of Java the train
struck broken rail, derailing eight cars
and breaking them up badly. Two
tramps names unknown, who were steal
ing ride in a car of lumber, were prob
ably fatally injured.
When the train arrived in Cut Bank,
Antoine Anderson, a car inspector, who
was inspecting the train, stepped onto
the passing track next to the train. The
engine, which had been detached from
the train, was backing down this track
and struck Anderson, knocking him
down and passing diagonally across his
body, killing him almost instantly.
Anderson was the son in law of a
wealthy cattleman here, and leaves a wife
and one child

BRITISH COLUMBIA.

A second smelter seems practically
assured to Grand Forks.
A cablegram from London was re-
ceived recently at RoSSland stating
that a controlling interest in the lie
Roi mine has been picked up by a syn
dictate of London investors, prominent
ly identified with the Exploration COM
pany. This will account in a large
measure for the rapid advance in the
price of the shares, which has reached
60 It's Cd. The rumor is also current
that the same people are endeavoring
to secure control of the Center Star
and War Eagle mines.
Word has been received at Phoenix
that miners strike is on at the Nickel
Plate mine, in the Similkameen. No
tices warning union men 10 keep away
have been sent out by the Camp Nc
Kinney miners union, the nearest or
ganization of miners. The Nickel
Plate is located in Camp Hedley, up
Twenty Mile creek, about four miles
from Similkameen city. Manager Rog-
ers of the Nickel Plate is said to have
announced a cut from $3.50 to $500
per day in wages for miners. All but
a few of the 25 men employed walked
out. The Nickel Plate is owned by the
Marcus DAILY estate, and IS said to be
one of the richest mines in the Sim1l-
kameen country 1t is equipped with
an air compressor and is one of the
largest employers of labor In that sec
ton.
The Golden Monarch Mining & Mill
ing company of Spokane has had
piece of good fortune in driving the
long crosscut tunnel on the Foghorn at
Ymir. At 200 feet from the mouth OF
the tunnel blind vein was encounter
ed showing a stringer of good looking
ore about 10 inches wide. This new
discovery promises well, although the
actual value Of the ore has not yet been
ascertained.
Encouraging reports are at hand
from the Ainsworth camp, where min
ing matters have picked up materially
during the past week. If the lead mar
ket takes turn for the better the camp
will have one of the liveliest seasons in
its history.
Work i'm the big tunnel at the High
lander is in full swing.
