TOO SMOOTH FOR cENsoRs.
British War Correspondents Got Mes
saees Past the Officials.

New York, June 3.-Some Interesting
stories are told in the morning papers
| of the ruses adopted by correspondents
to dodge the press censorS in South At
RIGA letting their editors keep in
formed of the progress of the pease ne
gotiations, says Herald dispatch from
London.
The Daily Telegraph. for instance, re-
ceived from Bennett Burley on Whit
suntide the words "Whitsuntide greet
ings." When the dispatch arrived with
out any official delay the first idea was
that the transmission of such message
at full from the seat of war was a
somewhat supertluous demonstration of
politeness. A little reflection, however,
seemed to indicate the significance of the
particular season at which the sociable
sentiment was expressed. The editor,
however, turned to the prayer book
knowing Burleigh is well acquainted
with holy writ-and reading over the
gospel for Whitsunday, came upon the
sentences, Peace be with you; my
peace l give unto you LAS the world
giveth give l unto you. Let not your
heart be troubled, nither let it be
afraid"
when we received Mr. Burleighs
message to his brother in Glasgow. Re
turning-tell Lawson, we felt" says the
Daily Telegraph, that the moment had
arrived and we might fairly take the
public into our confidence"
The Daily ANIL ha.S most ingenious
arrangement. 1t was simple device,
purporting to send market news,
whereas it was in reality code telling
all about how the peace negotiations
We're progressing.
Here is verbatim the first of a long
series of cables: Regarding purchase

parties to contract now Pretoria, with
er ALT gone get better price: have every

The simplicity of the device renders
explanation almost unnecessary. This
particular instance was but an iso-
lated success of scheme designed to
meet all possible contingencies, but it
worked well.

concurrence, that they had not got
nearly far enough in the direction OF an
agreement to justify suen a course.
The Boer leaders then asked that
they be permitted to submit the mat
ter of REIMBURSEMENT of independence
to their people and asking for state
mcnt of terms that might be expected
if the burghers in the field should
vote to surrender independence. In re-
Spouse to Kitchener's telegram Brod-
erick telegraphed expressing some
surprise at the request and contin-
ued:
I'VE are, as we have been from the
first anxious to spare the etfusion OF
further blood and to hasten the res
toration of peace and prosperity to the
countries afflicted by the war. You and
Lord Miner are, therefore, authorized
to refer the Boer leaders to the offer
made by you to General Botha more
than twelve months ago, and to inform
them that altho the subsequent re-
duction in the strength of the forces
opposed to us and the additional sac
rifices thrown upon us by the refusal
of the offer would justify us in inn
posing far more onerous terms, we
are still prepared in the hope of
permanent peace and reconciliation
to accept a general surrender on tho
lines of the offer, but with such mod
ifications in detail as may be agreet
upon mutually. You are also author
lied to discuss such notifications with
them and to submit the result for our
approval"
This was communicated by General
Kitchener to the Boer representatives
on the morning of April II. The Beers
asked for an armistice to enable them
to consult with their burghers, which
General Kitchener refused on military
grounds. but he promised facilities for
them to hold their meetings. Lord
Miner impressed on them the necessi-
ty for coming back with definite pow
ers and a determination to make peace
at once, which they promised to do.
on May IL General Kitchener tele-
graphed to Mr.. Broderick that he had
received the following telegram from
Schalk Burger and Steyn:
We have the honor to communicate
to your excellency that as the result
of the burghers assembling here a
commission has been appointed by our
governments to negotiate with a view
to finishing the present war. This
commission consists of Louis Botha
Christian De Wet, Hertzog, Delarey,
and SHUTS. If your excellency il
agreeable to meet this commission we
request you appoint time and place
of meeting"
The commission met with Lord
Miner and the terms subsequently ar
rived at were negotiated.

No SUNDAY Or No Ply
Treasury Officials Will Not Cash
Warrants Until Exposition
Complies.
Must Have a Bond That Gates
Will Be Kept Closed on
Sundays.
Resolution for Sunday Closing
Already Adopted by EXPOSE
ton Not Enough.

Washington, June 3.-Treasury de-
partment officials have had their atten-
ton called to the rules and regulations
of the Louisiana Purchase Exposition
Company, approved by the national
commission, which provide among 9TH
er things, that the exposition viii be
closed on Sundays. 1t is contended by
the exposition officials that the adop-
ton of these regulations comply with
the requirement of the law authorizing
the exposition. with regard to Sunday
closing, and that the contract requested
by the treasury department officials, as
covered in these dispatches, is not nee
essary. The section of the rules and
regulations of the exposition company,
to which attention has been directed, is
as follows:
las provided by law, the Louisiana
purchase exposition will be held in the
city of St. Louis, state of Missouri,
United States of America, and will be
opened on the S0th day of April. A. d.
1903, and Will be closed on the first day
of December of that year. The expo
sition will be closed on Sunday"
MIR. III. A. Taylor, assistant secretary
of the treasury stated that there was
no desire on the part of the treasury
department officials to be captious
with the exposition management, but
that the department could not accept
the rules and regulations of the exposi-
ton company as compliance with the
provisions of the law. The provisions
of the amendment requiring the expo
sition to be closed on Sunday have been
printed in these dispatches. They pro-
vide specifically that no part of the
funds voted by the government in sup
port of the exposition shall be paid I'M
Ill the directors of the exposition have
entered Into written contract binding
the exposition management to keep the
gates of the fair closed on Sundays.
Mr.. Taylor considers this provision
specific instruction, and one which can
not be met by the treasury officials ex-
cept by the eXaction of the bond from
the officers and directors of the eXposi-
ton company.
Mr.. Taylor points out that the rules
and regulations of the exposition COM
pany are subject to change. In the
very rule in which it is provided that
tne EXPOSITION Sldli be SloSSu oii Jun
DAYS it will be necessary to change the
dates for the opening ard closing of the
exposition. There is nothing, as the
treasury department officials view 1T. to
prevent the exposition company from
also changing the provision for the
closing of the exposition on Sundays.
The warrants that have been held up
by the treasury department have been
Of minor character, principally for of
flee supplies, but the warrants of the
salaries of the members Of the national
commission will be presented for pay
ment on Monday, and these will be neld
up until the exposition officials comply
with the request of the treasury de-
partment and furnish the contract.

BOXERS ALARM CHINA.
Troops Unable to Cope With the Rebel
Forces.


Victoria, June 3.-Advices We're re-
ceived by the steamer Clavering that
the different missions at Pekin have
been informed that at southwest Chi Lii
a new boxer Instruction has broken
out, led by George Chi Hing, who killed
his wife and family and Others emuiated
the example before the campaign COM
menced. The boxers first murdered a
French missionary and later killed a
Belgian priest, and fifty Chinese Off
Gals engaged in collecting taxes were
killed. A church was destroyed at Wei
Hien, where a native missionary was
killed and a large number of converts
slaughtered. Troops We're sent against
the boxers, who defeated them. The
rebels are credited with program OF
overrumning Honan and Shan Tung and
then making for Pekin. They are we'll
armed.
The Japan Mail says: GAS might
have been anticipated, the recrudes-
cence of boxer disturbances at Ku Huh
Hen, in Chi Lii. has an effect on the
discussion for the restoration of the
civil government for Tien Tsin. Even
those who previously advocated the
policy of immediate restoration are now
said to be reticent. 1t is not the Tien
Tsin question alone that will be in
iurously influenced by these things.
Other and far more important events
also depend on China's ability to pre-
serve order with wholly insufficient ma
chinery under circumstances that
would probably overtax the competency
of any power"
The French consul at Tien Tsin is
said to have proceeded to Tien Tsn for
the purpose of investigating the cir
cumstances of the death of a French
missionary at the hands of the boxer
insurgents.

You may secure the same relief as Miss
Snyder, if you take Wine of Cardui as she
took it. Thedford's Black Draught is the
companion medicine of Wine of Cardui

your druggist and buy dollar bottle OF
Wine of Cardui and a twenty-five cent
package of Thedforyl's Black Draught and
take them in the privacy of your home. Il
you take these medicines according to de

Some cases are cured quickly and others
take longer because the disease has run
longer. Remember how Miss Snyder took
Wine of Cardui and has health. The
same medicines are offered you today.

she should be strong and healthy, filling
the home with the sunshine of her happy
face. Somehow or other as the mother is
the center of the home, the daughter seems
to be its greatest JOY or its greatest care.
A home with an invalid daughter is like a
hospital. The sufferer with her pale
blanehed face calls for every ones care and
sympathy. How different is the home
where healthy girl sheds her happy in
fluence and ministers to the comfort of
every one in a thousand pleasant ways.
1t is remarkable that SO many women
will forfeit health and then suffer the con-
sequence of pain and sickness when it is
unnecessary. Women who enjoy this
greatest of Natures blessings are liable to
forget that health can be easily lost by neg
lect. They cannot realize that the loss of
sleep, little cold or irregularity of habits
can result disastrously until they once suf-
fer painful menses. Menstrual troubles are
generally the beginning of women's trou-
bles. The vitality is at a low ebb, the

This Is the Second Negro to Escape Hanging Within the Past Month. Guy Smith Escapes From
 Custody of Officers.

Will Dorsey, the negro sentenced to be hanged Friday for highway robbery. has been granted a rehearing by the supreme court and that court has issued an order suspending the execution until such time as the evidence in the case may be gone over again. This last order revokes the recent certificate of afhrmance issued, in which the decision of the criminal court was sustained.
 Dorsey was convicted during the spring term of court, 1t being proven that he attempted to murder David McNamara while robbing his home. The shooting was done in the presence of his wife and little son. An appeal was taken. but the sentence was affirmed. a rehear- ing coming only yesterday.
 This Is the second negro to escape hang ing within the past month. Two weeks ago 1Ae sentence of John Hardy was postponed until September in order to allow wthe board of pardons to take up the case.
