venezue1ans in Distress.

Willemstad, Island of Curacao, Oct. IA.
(via Haytien ble).-Advices received to-
day from Maracaibo under date of Octo-
Der 10 say the Venezuelan troops are en-
trenched at various points on the PENN
sula. A majority of them are in the vi
entity of Maracaibo. The Venezuelan SOL
diers, being practically without commits
siarat, are compelled to live on the coun-
try. The result is lack of food supplies
of any kind, and consequent increase
of hunger, distress and suffering among
the soldiers who have no shelter. Sick
ness is spreading rapidly among them and
they have no medical attendance or medi-
cine.
The Guajari Indians are becoming more
incensed against the Venezuealans on ac-
count of the outrages committed by the
latter and have mutilated over score of
Venezuelans who have fallen into their
hands. These advices concluded by saying
that fighting there seems improbable.

Terrorized the Towns.

Saginaw, Mich, Oct. a. Burglars who
had previously blown open the safe in
the office of the United States Graphite
company here and secured $50 in cash
terrorized the inhabitants of the village
of Fosters, near here. They captured
Night Waterman Jones and bound and
gagged him. Then they took him to Har-
denis hardware store, where they blew
open the safe. Unable to open the strong
box, they made the Waterman conduct
them to Harden's home, expecting to COM
pei Harden to go to his store and open
the cash drawer of the safe. Harden was
prepared for them and opened fire. The
burglars used the captive Waterman as a
shield to Harden's fire. Jones was shot
in the hand, but none of the burglars
We're hit. The shooting aroused the vii
layers and the burglars fled.

Two Burned, One Dies, other Insane.

Topeka, Kan, Oct. l4.-As result OF
a quarrel at a dance in Lane, a little town
in Potawatomie county, two men were
burned to death, one lies at the point OF
death and another is hopelessly insane.
A dance was held which was attended
by large number of the rougher young
men of the community. About l o'clock
in the morning general fight started.
When it was over it was found that John
Teehan had been struck in the head and
fatally injured.
When it became known how seriously
Teehan was hurt the other dancers scat
tered. One of them, Eugene Cronan, a
real estate agent, went to his office to
sleep and was accompanied by j. Melon
aid. During the early hours of the morn
ing the office was set on fire by some OF
the dancers, and the two men were burned
to death. The accumulated events of the
night proved to much for the father OF
Cronan, and he has gone hopelessly and
violently insane.

velopments are expected from a case
which was heard in the supreme court to-
day, in which Thomas Louw obtained
judgment for ll50 pounds against Prin-
cess Radziwill. The money was advanced
on promissory note for 1000 pounds
drawn by the princess and purporting to
have been Endorsed by Cecil Rhodes. Mr..
Rhodes repudiated the Endorsement and
all knowledge of the affair The court
allowed the case as against Mr. Rhodes
to stand over until November, pending the
arrival of Mr.. Rhodes affidavits Princess
Radziwill, who was present in court, has
been a frequent visitor to South Africa,
and the case has aroused all the greater
interest because the princess has, appar-
emily, always been on friendly terms with
Mr.. Rhodes and the circle of which he
was the leader.

Bir Elk Gored Him.

Helena, Mont, Oct. l4.-To prove an
oft repeated boast that the bull elk con-
fined in an enclosure at Central park was
afraid of him, Joseph Coufal of Helena
entered the gate armed only with four
pronged pitchfork. The elk Immediately
charged him, and his pitehfork proved
ineffective as weapon of defense. The
elk knocked him down and gored him
again and again in the thigh and all over
the body. Samuel Billiard, who had gone
to watch the feat, tore off fence rail,
twisted it in the elk's horns and drove
him off, but not until he had received a
wound in the leg which will lay him up
for several days.
Coufal was dragged away and doctors
summoned, but before they reached the
park he had died of conclusion of the
brain.

Port Townsend. Wash, Oct. IA
Nome has again been visited by
storm, according to advices received
here today by the steamer John s.
Kimball. The storm commenced on
the night of September 26 and con-
tinued for three days with increased
fury, and as result every lighter
that was anchored off Nome is ashore
and the government tug. Captain War
den, is on the beach. While the storm
was almost as, severe as the mem
orable storm of last year, the damage
was slight, owing to there being but
little shipping in the harbor and the
waterfront was better protected. The
most serious damage will result from
the delay in getting lighters afloat so
they can be used in discharging the
large number of steamers due at
Nome, and some fears are entertained
that they can not be repaired in time
so that cargoes can be discharged in
time for vessels to get out before navi-
cation has closed. The only loss as
a result of the storm thus far reported
occurred after the storm was abating
