BULL STARTED BACK.
Would Not Attack Woman Made
 Up as a Statues
PeriIous Performance of Senorita Mercedes del Bnrte, Known as Donna Tancreda, Beautiful
 Queen of yaIOr.

According to a London correspond- ent there appeared, few weeks ago, some alluring advertisements which were especially attractive to those Parisians who love excitement, and who had had their appetite for such things tickled by the races of the Rue Pergolese. The attraction this time was a woman, Donna Tancreda, who. made up to resemble a statue, was to await. motionless in the arena, the as sault of the bull, and to conquer it by her i1nm obility. At the last moment this performance, which was to have taken place 1t Enghein, was forbidden. It did, however, take place at Roubalx. Here is an exact account of what hap pened at the "suerte" of the statue;
 At given signal from the president, the doors of the arena opened and a magnificent carriage appeared, all draped in red velvet, fringed with gold. In this carriage sat Senorita Mercedes del Barte, alias Donna Tancreda.
 The Queen of Valor'' is dressed com pletely in white Her face and hair are powdered The carriage stops just i'll front of the presiding party, and she gets out, smiling and lowing, and throws off her mantle, talking with the ushers while the attendants arrange in the middle of the arena a pedestal of wood about two feet high. When all is ready the impresario addresses the public, and begs them to observe the most rigorous silence during the per- formance. This is indispensable. Then Donna Tancreda mounts the pedestal, helped by the matadors. She crosses her arms and faces the door from which the bull will emerge. The woman looks exactly like marble statue. The arena is empty. All the ushers have disappeared behind the barriers and shelters. The deepest silence reigns in the vast auditorium. Half minute passes thus. Then the

IKTHILE the talk had stuck to
 w horses the ex-sheriff of Carson county had enjoyed the society of the party of visitors whose liquid hospital ity he had been invited to share. When it took an up-to-date turn and switched to automobiles he began to be bored. The conversation wandered among the intricacies of explosion chambers, motors, gears, and the like, and al though the ex-sheriff's glass was filled and emptied with the rest, tired, far away expression crept over his face and he spat at more frequent inter- vals into the sawdust box beneath the bar.
 ..The only machine of that kind that ever come through here" he reflective ly said at length, stirred things up considerable
 Whereupon the entire company, hay- ing expressed it's interest by he usual invitation, the sheriff removed the superfiuous moisture from his sweep ing mustache with the back of his hand and told how the first autom obile came into Carson county.
 s'Twas a couple O years ago last spring. A couple of fellers came through goin' 10 Chicago, at least thet was their intention when they struck this camp. The boys was naturally in terested in the machine they had, rath- CT big, clumsly lookin' rig at that, but it sure could throw dust. Some of the boys wanted t race it firstoff with th' fastest horses in camp, but after the machine did the snake dance all the way around tn speediest broncho in tn bunch, the gang natcher'lly wanted t be put on how it was done. Well, the chaps, bein' good natured, showed 'em where t pull a handle t set her goin', how t let her out or check her in, n what an easy mouth she had.
 .It banned out that twas a dern fool trick t put tn gang on, cause next mornin' when tn two fellers got up bright n early fer long days run; no machine Mike, that keeps tn ho- tel, and few of tn early birds was standin' lookin' at tn broken lock of tn door of tn little shack where it had been put over night.

 Say! Those fellers was smooth faced, easy-lookin' chaps, but they sure. did know how to express their feelin's under tn circumstances. Their re- marks kinder worked tn boys up, too. Hadn't been an excitement in camp fer some time n tn gang went right off on a rampage fer want of somethin' bet ter t do, loaded up guns, filled up on whisky n big talk, n started out like all sin dead bent fer lynchin' party.
 sBein' an officer of the law at the time, I kep it on my mind t preserve law n order'n recover tn lost prop erty. I knew dern well though twas no use bucl1in' against lot of half crazy galoots like them when they've got kicker in 'em, an an idea in their heads so tight you couldn't chop it out with an ax. So off went tn whole bunch; me with lem. Had t laugh, too, t think of catchin' that thing with hosses. They he'd oil enough aboard, 'cordin' to tn owners t go 50 mile straight. mentioned tn fact t one of tn boys who was a little soberer than tn rest
 That's all right sez he, how bout Goose creel1?'
 .'Gee!' sez I, that's so. Can't cross there with that. It's been runnin' high this week. No goin' 'cross country, either OH them spider wheels
 Pretty soon we begun t take tn rise bout mile this side O the creek. On top of the knoll we could take view clean to the bank. Way down there in the middle of the road was the ma chine, standing still just above where the road dips to the ford. Some body was fussing round it. We knew it was the machine count of the sun dazzles shinin' on tn nickel parts. Then tn boys let out yell an hit Up tn pace for fair. A little nearer they began to shoot, more t scare tn cuss than fer anythin' else. But it didn't scare him. He jumps in, pulls tn levers n goes down slow over tn bank and out of sight. Then he was safe as a gopher in hole fer tn time bein',
 Everybody pulls up just odt O range, because you'll see there was no tellin' when lead might be comin' over tn bank in chunks. The game was sure treed, an the boys went at him kinder careful, havin' him cinched as they tho't. We gets into tn bushes an covers tn road an tn ford with our guns. Horny Bill and Dave Smith sneaks down stream little ways from tn bank n lays quiet. Then every body waits awhile, cussin' bit an sweatin' like tn devil.

 'Piute Bill!' we all yells as we sees his ugly jaw just over tn bank. So it was, the skunk. In minute tn ma- chine begins t chug n gurgle down there.

At the democratic caucus held Sat
 urday morning, after Mir Richardson
 had been nominated for speaker, MT
 Kerr of Pennsylvania for clerk, etc, q
 number of resolutions were presented
 and eventually referred to q commit

 The resolutions included a condemna- ton of the highly protective features of the tariff, q condemnation of the trusts, and of all legislation which en- abled American manufacturers to sell
 to foreign producers more cheapIy than to American consumers; an expression fayoring just and generous treatment of Porto Rico and Cuba. and an eX- pression of opposition to the ship sub-
 sidy bill as presented at the last ses- | sion, and to all measures designed to use the public funds for the benefit of private interests. They also cS- pressed determination to insist on the sacred force of the fundamental American rule of democratic seIf-gov- uPDOSlLlOn tO dl1i IOl-

 100000 per annum. Last session, the
 republicans having announced that tie war was over, an effort was made to
 secure the repeal of the law, the dem ocrats using every means ill their power to relieve the people of this un-

 republicans to pass a measure which
 reduced the revenues by $30,000,o0o.

AMERICAN DEsERTERs ACCUSED
Samar Massacre Laid to Them-Eng.
 fish Agents Expelled.

-AES
 WASHINGTON, Dec. 3.-According to Manila newspapers, copies of which have been received at the war depart ment, the massacre of Company c Ninth infantry, at Balangiga, Samar was planned by deserters from the American army. The newspapers state that two such deserterS are known to have acted as spies two days before ths massacre. It is said that when the First infantry was relieved by the Ninth on the island of Sanar these de serters obtained some uniforms whicf had got adrift during the transfer anc thus equipped passed as American reg uIars.
 Deserters in Samar are becoming very bold, it is stated, and it is not au infrequent sight to find notices writer in English posted on trees and shrub. bery inviting Americans to join the in. surgents and instructing them how to enlist. It is also said to be generally understood fact that deserterss from the Ninth cavalry, colored, are responsibl : for all the troubles the American troop have been having in Batangas prov ince. It is said that deserterS from thi regiment led the fight near Lipa in July, in which Captain Wilhelm an Lieutenant Ramsey of the Twenty first infantry and Lieutenant Lee of the en gineers were killed. General Smith, in Samar, and the Twentieth infantry in Batangas are said to be hot on the trail of the deserters.
 Mail adyices from the Philippines are to the effect that the military au thorities have been obliged to expel al the agents of English houses at Mt niia from the islands of Samar and Leyte, as they have been engaging in traffic with rebellious natives. It is ex pected that the British consul will re fer the matter to London for instruc tions. but no serious trouble is appre hended.

 door opens, and one sees in the shadow the enormous head of the bull Gitano. The spectators hardly breathe; many of the women cover their eyes with their hands. It is a terrible moment.
 The bull is superb animal, with a powerful neck and long, straight horns. He raises his head, looks around, and at once bounds upon the white statue.
 It is with the greatest difficulty that one can restrain cry of horror; ones sensations are too painful, and long endurance of such emotion would be unbearable.
 Donna Tancreda is as rigid as mar b1e. The least movement would be fatal to her.
 The bull starts back, looks at his strange adversary, and then with 8 terrible bound rushes up to the pedes- tai. Anxiety is at it's height. But once more the bull stops short without striking. He draws back a few feet. and, taking advantage of this, Donna Tancreda jumps down and rushes be- hind a screen, whilst the ushers draw off the bull.
 The people breathe again. A long sigh escapes from all, and then thun- ders of applause are heard, and the Queen of Valor" gets tremendous ovation.
 Donna Tancreda, who was born in Paris, has appeared with success at Barcelona, Valentia, Castile, Madrid, Seville and, for the first time in France. at Roubaix.

A pan-American Rank.

CITY OF MEXICO, Dec. 3.-The or der of yesterdays session of the pan- American conference called for dis cussion of the projects for pan-Amer- ican bank and the exchange of off cial publications, but at the opening of the session MT. Baez of Paraguay took the floor and made speech advocating q comprehensive scheme of arbitration. At it's conclusion MT. Matte of Chile said that he thought it would be better for the conference to cOnfine itself to the order of the day instead of listen ing to mere academical discussion. MT. Bermejo of Argentina when he arose to report on the project for the pan- American bank took exception to MT. Matte's remarks. The Chilean delega- tion offered an amendment to the eff feet that interested governments give the proposed bank subsidy of $100,- GOO gold per annum for five years to start with, 10 be contributed accord ing to population by the several coun- tries.

Representative Richardson of fen nessee was nominated by the demo- crats yesterday for the speakership, q purely complimentary nomination, but one that carries with it the leadership of the democratic forces in the current congress. Mir Richardson's ability as q parliamentarian, his quiet but deter mined methods of warfare, and the gentle and dignified manner with which he can excoriate his opponents when their indifference to the public welfare demands it, all combine to ron der him exceptionally well qualified for the responsibilities of his position.

round his waist, one end tied U tn wagon body. an steerin' her straight into. deep water.
 Of course, tn dern thing didn't float but she was so heavy she run right down inter tn water an disappeared under, runnin' as4g tn bolton. Bill he stays on top an it pulls him along like fish on q line. Funny? Lord. how we dld howl! We was Iaughin' so hard an most of us was so unsartin'- handed from tn booze that not a man could shoot straight enough t pop tn hoater. So there was tn machine get ting away safe an sound downstream an takin' Piute with it.
 Then Horny Bill steps out down tn bank an tn gang quit shootin' t see what was goin' t happen next. Piute was quite little ways from shore by this time an pullin' away fast. Horny whips out his rope. He wasn't no slouch with it neither, an though twas a long distance throw he lands tn moose square over Flutes head n shoulders. Fl tries t fight 1t off, but twas no go.
 What with tn machine an tn creek pullin' one way an Horny an Bill t'other twas a tight squeeze fer oi Pi an no mistake. Tn air tires on tn machine, though, kinder lifted her little off tn bottom, I suppose, an tn steady pull swings her head in t shore. Then they pulls Pi in, black in tn face an dead gone from tn squeezin an bein' under water off n on for several minutes. Then comes tn machine climbin' slow up tn bank after Pi, all by itself an sorter 'shamed like. The paint was most all off her from tn sand an rock in the creek, an tn shirt an tn hide was most all off of Pi count of tn two ropes. Tn machine had barely 'nough spoles left t hold Ter up.
 Well, say! Tn gang just lay down an rolled over with joy an gasped fer breath t see tn pair of them. When they got through they was so weak they couldn't hev strung Pi up eff they'd wanted to. But they didn't. Twas too good joke on Pi an then they'd he'd q lot more fun out of it than they would out of a bonny fdy lynchin' bee. Horny, he says: 'Shucks, v can't hang man fer stealth hossless wag- I gin, can ye. An that settled it.
 ssI can't explain how twas she didn't explode or go out under water. Don't understand the innards of them things any way. Them fellers that owned it was sore, though. They stirred up trouble with tn gov'nor n he had me fired fer not holdin' Pi. No more un- thankful public jobs fer me-

Speaking of the output of coal a writer in the New England Engin- eering magazine says that the United States output of coal now exceeds that of Great Britain. which country up to two years ago was the largest producer in the world, and the total of all grades will be 275.O0O,00O net tons this year. The whole trend of public discussion in England is of the conservation of her coal supplies, and at the Glasgow meeting of the British Institution of Mining Engineers, Sir William Thomas Lewis, president thereof, in his address, said: ''With reference to the number of tons of coal unworked in our different co
 fields, it is, of course. easy to calcu- late from the plans and sections of the seams provided, making the usual allowances for faults and loss in work ing, but the important question is, how many of the seams can be as sumed to be workable to q profit from time to time, and how much of the coal contained in the various seams can be usefully obtained? If the thin seams cannot now be worked, while We have superior coals in thick seams to mix with them. I fear that many of the thinner and the inferior coals are much less likely to be profitably worked in the future"
