PROMOTION FOR EVANS.

Washington, March 17.-There is no
longer any doubt that Pension Com
missioner Evans will. within the next
few months, at the latest, sever mis-
connection with the pension bureau,
to accept from the president posi-
tion which will be n substantial pro-
motion, but which has not yet been
definitely selected. 1t is well known
that Mr.. Evans has the entire conf
denee of the president, and the latter
will not consider the question of his
retirement until position entirely
satisfactory to the commissioner has
been provided. No decision has been
reach concerning a successor to MIR.

until the president is thoroughly con.
WINGED that he has found man of
the same high character and sterling

DIED DOING THEIR DUTY.
Seven Llfe-Savers Drowned While Trying
to Rescue Wrecked Seamen-Five
of the Latter Lost.

Chatham, Mass, March 1S.--By the
capsizing of a life-boat, yesterday,
seven life-savers, practically the en-
tire crew of the Monomoy station on
the south end of Cape Cod, met death
at their post of duty, and with them
into the sea, went five men from The
stranded barge Wadena, whom they
tried to bring in safety to the shore.
One man, Lemuel Ellis, through the
heroic work of Capt. Mayo, of anoth-
er stranded barge, the John c. Eitz-
patrick, was rescued from the bot
tom of the upturned life-boat. Among
those lost was William IL. Mack. of
Cleveland. o., who was on the barge
representing his company, the Bou-
telle Towing and Transportation Co.,
of that city, while Capt. Marshali n
Eldredge, one of the oldest life-sayers
on the coast, went down with his
men. All the life-sayers came from
Chatham and Norwich.

St. Paul, Mimi, March 1o.-The
weather i'm this vicinity, Monday, was
bright ard clear. but high winds en-
phaoizcd the cold. In this city, Louis
0rluwski. aged 20 years, was found
deRd on the street apparently as a
result of the exposure to the cold.
Additional details from the terrible
storm that has been raging for three
days in the DakotGs are slow to ar
rive, owing, principally, to the condi-
tion OF the wires. At least four and
possible many more persons are dead
because of the storm, and the loss
of stock will be very heavy. Exact
figures will be unobtainable for sew
eral days. The storm was felt most
by the new settlers, and heavier loss
of life is feared among these people.
All trains are still tied up in North
Dakota, although rotary snow plCws
and large crews of men have been
working steadily in an attempt to
clear the track for through trains
With the subsistence of the storm
the railroads are bending their ener-
gy to again open their lines for traf-
fc, and immense rotary snow plows
and gangs of men with pick and
shovel are attacking the mountainous
drifts that block the tracks
In view of the fury and suddenness
of the storms it is remarkable that
so few lives are reported lost, While
the reports so far have been meager
and many remote points have not yet
been heard from, it is the general be-
lief that not above eight or ten per
sons persisted throughout the storm
swept region. A family of four is re-
ported to have perished near Minot,
n. d.. and two or three others are
said to have been frozen to deatl, in
different localities. The loss to stock
is hard to estimate.
a report from Dickinson, y. d.,
places the loss at from - to 80 per
cent. while rumor places it. in other
localities, at a much higher figure. 1t
will be several days before definite in
formation in this regard can be OBJ
tained.

fire threatened the Campbell's stol es,

In old age the mucous membranes be-

all this by its specific operation on all
