to the coal supply of the Texas on May
26, 1898 and the second to the condition
Of the machinery of the Texas on the
31st of that month The questions of
the court and the responses were as
follows:
Are you positive that the quantity
of coal reported on hand May 26 was
yes. sir, as nearly as anybody can
be positive. There was no accurate
means OF weighing what was sent US
and generally there is no absolute ac-
curate means by which the coal is
weighed coming aboard ship. All naval
officers know that coal is weighed to
the best of our ability and an accurate
account kept to the best of our ability
and it is generally a good estimate. It
is weighed out in the same way"
Was the machinery of the Texas in
efficient condition for service on May

Il should say by recollection, yes.

wrong about the machinery"

BLESSED ARE THE POOR.
No Secret or Sorrow of the Rich Too
Sacred to Be Dished Up.

Blessed are the poor, for they are
not harried by the yellow journals.
But let anything occur with reference
to rich person. and it is all printed
in sensational papers. No secret, or
sorrow, or misfortune, is too sacred to
be dished up for the delectation of the
purient. Mr.. Rockefeller's daughter
had an affection of the ear. Immedi-
ately there were pictures of her, dia-
grams of the ear and of the diseased
part, pictures of her father; her moth
err, their home, etc. Mr.. Armour's in.
FAINT grand-dau9 liter was afflicted with
a hip-ioint disease, and an operation
was deemed necessary. Immediat ely
the pictures were brought into display
with diagrams of the child's anatomy,
portraits of the mother and father
pictures of the operating table, the
house, the doctor, etc. And so it goes.
Absolutely nothing escapes the report
err and the artist of the yellow jour-
mails when rich person is concerned:
not even the details of the advent of
the little stranger who may inherit
the fortune. 1t is all intensely dis
gushing to people of gentle breeding.

"HE LANDED IN HELL"
Connecticut Preacher Departs from Usual
Custom in Funeral Grafton.

The Rev. C. O. Peterson, pastor OF
the Swedish Congress ational church,
Deep River, Conn, preached tuner
al sermon which has caused much
comment among the friends of Theo-
dore H. Ahlstrom, Sweede, who died
on Christmas day after an illness of
only few hours.
Mr.. Peterson said II would commit
a great sin if, knowing the life he
lived, stood here praising him. None
who is here now can Judge me on the
Judgment day because | praised him
in my funeral sermon. One may say
with certainty that he landed in hell.
According to what | have heard, he
lived without God, and so he died
without God and we may be sure he
was not carried'into Abraham's bosom.
This was undoubtley the worst castro
phe that could have befallen Ahlstrom
that he should be precipitated into the
abvss.'

Beers TAKE VALUABLE TRAIN.
Have Invaded Cape Colony, and Meet
With Little Resistance.

A London dispatch says; Lord
Kitchener's efforts to check the inva-
sion of Cape Colony appear to he una
vailing. The invaders continue their
marches along the lines of the last re-
ststance, which are many. In the vi
entity of Colesburg several British
posts have been taken and the Beers
captured many cattle and quantity OF
supplies. There is like Boer activity
along the western border of the Trans
vaal.
Between Kimberley and Mafeking
they are driving off horses and stock.
Near Kuruman they captured a con-
voy of wagons valued at $250,000. The
twenty five police who were escorting
the wagon surrendered and their arms
were taken from them.
The Cape cabinet met yesterday to
consider the situation, which is very
serious. That the same view is held
here is evidenced by the fact that
many of the big dailies are sending
their correspondents back to the Cape.

A special from Quitman, Ca, says
A negro whose name cannot be learned

During the morning the crime was
committed near Barney, eighteen
miles from here, his victim being a
small negro girl. Mr.. Pace, bailitf at
Barney, caught the man and took him
to Barney, intending to bring him
here on the train, but the negroes be-

For Wife BeaterS,

An effort is to be made to induce the
next session of the New Jersey legis-
lature to re-establish the whipping
post The women of the state are
leaders of the movement. 1t is claim
ed that during recent years wife-beat
ing has been largely on the increase,
and an adequate punishment for that
crime is demanded. Two years ago a
bill to re-establish the whipping post
was introduced, but it was objected to
by the churches. Now, it is said, the
church opposition will be very weak,
since it is proposed that whipping
shall be for the punishment of wife
heaters only.

ROASTED 1T.
Ex.President Harrison Criticised
Policy of Mckinley in Re-
gard to Islands.

General BENJAMIN Harrison. former
president of the United States, was
guest of honor at the Columbia Club OF
indianapolis Tuesday. He responded
to the toast, "Hail Columbia" and
was heartily cheered. He had furnish
ed advance sheets of his speech to the
newspapers, but included the follow
ing paragraphs in his speech;
sit has been recently said that our
fathers organized misshapen nation,
il these limitations and reservations
apply to all lands that become a part
OF our public domain, and TO all people
whose allegiance we accept. Now,
whatever the professors of aesthetics
may tell us about beauty in the ao-
stract. we know that in nature and
mechanics and in formative statecratt
such a principle has chiefly to do with
an intended use. That which perfect
ly accomplishes the designed use is
not misshapen. Orators ars mlsshap'
en- eagles, as all of US have found when
we tried to soar. And so, before we
condemn our constitution as misshap'
en-, if it carries its general limita'
tions and. its reservations OF per,
sonal rights to all lands over which its
sway extends, and to all people who
owe allegiance to the government II
organizes, we must assume that the
men Of 1916 and of 1877 contemplated
the governing of lands and people
with that absolutism against which
with so much cost and care they had
defended themselves. That is 10 beg
the question.

upon YOU my views upon this great
constitutional question. Though many
