of the old chap who changed the Col
den Rule to read: "DO unto the other
Teller as he would like to do unto YOU
only do it fust." he scored a positive
triumph. In transferring the story
from the book to the stage very few
liberties were taken with the novel,
and David Harm as a play stands
today the best dramatizatiOn that has
been made of any book in many years
The three acts into which the work is
divided are laid in bonneville, and one
scene-that which brings the second
act TO an end-is a marvellous piece of
realistic stage mechanism. Who is it
that has read the book and has not
laughed over the horse trade with the
sanctimOnious Deacon Perkins? This
scene is shown i'm the opening act, the
| Day horse being broughtOut of the barn
and shown off TO the deacon and the
sale effected Later the audience sees
the deacon behind the balky animal in
terrific thunderstorm, belaboring
the animal which refuses to move.

pors spoke of the play as furnishing

AN ULTIMATUM
From Great Britain to the
Boer Commanders.
Brought About by HaggIing Of the
Leaders at Vereeniging.
If Not Accepted, British Arc Nicely
Rested and Ready.

London, May 23.-The Daily Mail in
its issue of this morning says it under
stands that, owing to the protracted
hagglng of the Boer leaders at Preto-
ria. Great Britain has presented them
with what is practically an ultimatum,
their reply to which is awaited ana
which it is expected they Will accept.
Dispa atches which have been received
here from Pretoria, continues the Daily
Mail, say that during the stay of the
Boer delegates there the conference VIII
continue at Vcreeniging, and that a
ma jorty of those present at the confer
ence are trying to persuade the recall
citrant minority into a unanimous vote
In the meantime the British columns
have been resting and refitting and are
now all ready for immediate action.
The Daily Mail says it believes the
delegates at Pretoria will dispatch the
ultimatum to the conference at Vercen-
iging for it's consideration.

A CABINET MEETING
Called for Today Believed to Be Con-
nected With Peace Terms.

London, May ga cabinet council
has been summoned for tomorrow.
While the government departments are
discreetly silent, it is generally ac-
cepted that the summoning of the
cabinet is directly connected with the
South African peace conferences. Most
of the ministers are out of town for the
Whitsuntide recess.
The concensus of opiOn here is that
all the signs are propitious; but up to :
O'Clock Thursday afternoon, the British
officials had given no indication of the
course which the negotiations between
Lord Kitchener and Lord Milncr and
the Boer delegates at Pretoria were
taking That conferences are occurring
regarding the bases upon which peace
shall be declared is the sum total of the
which the war office has
vouchsafed up to the present, though it
is intimated that a definite announce
ment of the result, peaceful or other
wise. may be speedily expected.
The impression that peace is close at
hand has obviously taken a strong hold
of operators on the Stock Exchange
The buying of consols and giIt-cdEed

A Narrow Guage Strike.

The workmen on the narrow gauge
have evidently caught the striking
fever from their fellow railroad men
down river, for they were at odds with
their employers, Thursday, over a ques-
tion of wages. 1t has been the custom.
to pay off monthly, Withholding two
weeks pay as is usual with most cor
porations. The last regular pay day
was May T. and the men did not get
their money, as Mr.. Atwood is away on
a business trip and the usual check has
not been received.
Some of the men, therefore, refused
to go to work, Thursday morning, and
went back to their boarding places. A
few continued as usual. Some of the
Italians employed have been selling
their claims against the company at a
20 per cent. discount and are leaving,
thus allowing someone to make a dollar
off them. Mr.. Atwood is expected back,
Sunday, and it is believed that speedy
settlement can be effected, Monday, if
not before that time. Only the men
on construction are affected.

Scarlet Fever Under Control.

The Board of Health is getting right
after the scarlet fever that exists in
the city at present. About a dozen
houses are now ir quarantine. In some
cases the patient has been isolated in
some pert of the house, the remainder
of the family who are not engaged in
caring. for the sick being allowed their
freedom. In otherS cases the whole
family has been strictly quarantined
to its own quarters.
Children who are absent from school
are being traced and investigations
made to be sure that they are not suf-
fcring from the disease The disease
is very mild and there is not much
fear Of anything unusually serious.
The board is doing everything neces-
sarx now under the conditions and has
the situation well in hand. 1t is not
expected that the fever will have much
more Of a spread. 1t is the very mild
ness of the disease that has caused
the most difficulty, as some cases
have apparently existed without the
knowledge Of any physician or even
OF the parents. But now that every
one is on guard this can he prevented
and the mildness gives promise of an

Makes a Good impression.

st. Petersburg. May 22.-Pres. Loubet
arrived here. Thursday morning, from
Tsarskoe-Selo and was accorded an en-
thusiastic and popular reception. The

ing Franco-Russian alliance souvenirs of

bread and salt and heartily bade him wei
come. NJ. Loubet in reply said he enter

THE GENERAL IMPRESSION
Is That Peace in South Africa Is Prac
tically Assured.

London, May 23-The Daily Chron-
icle, this morning, claims authority to
say that peace in South Africa is prac-
tically assured This is also the gen.
eral impression with the other news
papers and the public, although the for
mer do not go 50 far as the assertion
published by the Chronicle.
AT q late hour last night however,
the government departments declined
to give any information on the matter.
1T is understood that important dis
patches were received, yesterday, from
Lord Miner the British high commits
sioner in South Africa, and Lord kitch7
ener but nothing can be ascertained as
to the nature of the contents of these
messages.
The fact that the cabinet was sum
moned so quickly after the arrival of
the delegates at Pretoria, is regarded
as Il good auSury, as the discussions at
Pretoria could only have commenced,
Monday. The cabinet will meet, late
this afternoon, in order to enable the
ministers who are at a distance to
reach London in time for the meeting.
A dispatch to the Daily Telegraph
from Pretoria says that the Beers are
seeking permission to retain their
horses.
Cabling from Pretoria under date of
Wednesday, May Il, the correspondent
of the Times says the Boer meeting
there is not necessarily final and that
it is believed the Boer delegates after
obtaining information on certain points
will return to Nereeniging.

of free and independent government

The United States now was happily out
of Cuba, but he believed that 1t Would
have been better rad the United Stdte's
recognized originally the Independents vi
Cuba. However. nothing which had oc-
CURED in his public career had given MN
more pleasure than the action OF tnc
United States in Cuba. The new republic

Foraker. that the object of his remarks
was to establish the fact that his resolu-
ton, known as the Teller resolution r.
lating to Cuba, was absolutely IN accoiN
ance with the sentiment of Congress at
that time
Hale interrupted 10 say that he regard
ed it almost as p~cVidential that leller
had had the forethought to prepare such
a declaration. 1t had served to make ii>
the United States a great restraining
force from that day to this. Had 1t not
been for that declaration, he was OF the
opinion that Cuba. today, would not DC
free. Personally ne had entertained Il
fear that lust of empire would get the
better of our people and that the govern
ment never would leave Cuba. Ihe SEN
ator from Wisconsin tSpooner) had DC
clared at an opportune moment that the
United States could not afford to hay"
the Teller resolution transferred INTO IL
legislative lie.
That statement was a warning, Haze

expressed the belief that had a dcclara-
ton that the United States would not
enter on a policy OF subiugatlon and con-
quest as a result of the Spanish war, been
attached to the Teller resolution, ii would
have been adopted.
In conclusion. Teller said the action OF
the United States regarding Cuba was
worthy of our great nation which, III TINS
instance. had put aside greed and con
quest and had erected monument among
the nations of the world.
The American flag had come down from
Cuba but a better one for Cuba had gene

MONEY MISSING.
Remains of John Glenn Found
in SacO River.
Had 5000 and Gold Watch and Chain
When He Disappeared.
Foul Play Suspected and the Police
Will Investigate.

Biddeford, Me-, May 22.-The badly
in the Saco river near the railroad
bridge, this afternoon, and the police
believe it is a partial solution of the
mysterious disappearance of John
Glenn, Jan. II las;, and that he was
victim of foul play.
Mr.. Glenn came here from Nova
Scotia about a year previous to his ap
pearance and was employed as a
moulder in a local foundry. At the
time of his disappearance it was sup
posed he had about 5000 and a gold
watch and chain in his possession. Al
though it is the general opinion the
body found, today, is that of Glenn,
there was nothing found in his pockets
with the exception OF a briar pipe and
a string of rosary beads.
1t is known that he secured a lady
correspondent through a matrimonial
paper just previous to his disappear
ance, and he had told friends of his
purchase of a watch and chain for the
woman he proposed to marry. He fail
ed, however, to make the presentation,
and ne had the articles in his posses
sion Hher last seen in Saco, where he
boa, Ell.
The police advance the theory that
Glenn was foully 1calt with, and af
ter the money and other articles had
been taken from the clothing his body
was thrown into the river. An effort
will be made to ascertain the name of
the woman he correspOnded with in
Saco, with n hope that she may be
able to tell who he was with on the
day of his disappearance. An au-
topsy will be held. tomorrow, and it is
likely an inquest will follow.
Glenn was about 35 years old, and
several OF his friends who have seen
the body, today, are strong in the be-
lief that it is the body of the missing
man.

BURNING SOFT COAL.
Reading Road Has COCO Cars Hauling
II From the Mines.

Reading, Pa, May 22.-The Reading
Co. has about 5000 of its cars in the
bituminOus trade, and the volume Of
coal that is now coming in from the
bituminous regions in Pennsylvania is
unprecedented. Not a pound of an
thracite coal is passing through Read
ing.
The COMPANY has about 5000 cars side
tracked at different points. This, to-
gether with some little stock at Port
Richmond, Philadelphia and Landing
vile, near Pottsville, and what is stored
at the coal chutes in this city, is about
all that the Reading Co. has.
1T is estimated that the company con-
sumes about 5000 tons of fuel every day
for locomotive use. This would be
equivalent to about S5 carloads a day.
With few exceptions all of the engines
are now burning soft coal.

ASSISTANCE FROM CANADA.
Will Send Bulk Of Timber to Rebuild
St. Vincent.

Washington. May 22.-Mr. Choate,
our ambassador at London. has in
formed the state department that a
cablegram from the governor of the
Windward islands to the colonial office
reports that the Canadian government
has made a substantial effort toward
the relief of the distress i'm st. Vincent
by supplies of money or in kind. Ca
NADIA also will supply the bulk of the
timber required for rebuilding the de-
stroyed homes. The government of the
United states. so Lord Pauncefote has
been informed. will give ready facilities
for the purchase of timber and eXpe-
dite its shipment. This last reference
is supposed to mean that the tariff reg
ulations will not be allowed to stand
in the way of the shipments of Cana
dian timber through the United States
ports to ports where it will be taken
aboard ship and conveyed to st. Vim
cent.
