CONVICT APPEALS TO PUBLIC.
Tom o'Brien Says Perjured Testimony
 Wrecked Ills Home and Life.

Butte. Mont, August 27.-With officers of the state penitentiary upon his trail assisted by bloodhounds convict Tom O Brien, who last Friday made a daring escape from the state prison. has sent a communication to The Miner, plead ing for a public statement of his alleged crime and vowing the death of Under Sheriff Dave Morgan, whose alleged per jury testimony. the convict declares, sent him to prison and wrecked his home.
 The document received by The Miner bears the postmark of Anaconda. The writer dates his communication from mountain in the surrounding hills of Anaconda, and says that he wrote his story behind a rock dividing his time between his Winchester and his pen The communication is a literary freak and there Is no question as to its authentic ity as the handwriting has been fully identified by the warden of the peni- tentiary and others acquainted with the criminal. |. OBrien declares his sole object in es- caping from the prison is to kill Dep uty Sheriff Morgan.
 O'Brien was sent up for robbery in 1901

JAPAN's CLAIMS RECOGNIZED.
United States Seems to Be Looking
 After Pacific Islands.

TolSio, August r via Victoria. B. G.. August 2.-The United States seems to be looking after the Pacific islands. First 1t was Marcus island, but nows came that the Washington authorities recog- nized Japan's claim thereto. The incident caused a little flutter at first, and a Japanese man-of-war was dispatched with an official on board to walt the arrival of Captain Rosehin the American alleged eoncessionairc. The warshlp land- ed its official charged with documents, one being from United States Minister Buck, but so far no word has been re- ceived of Captain Rosehlls arrival. The telegraphed solution of the matter has been hailed with pleasure by the Japanese press, which exalted the magnanimity of America and points out how consistently she has shown herself to be the friend of Japan.
 Just on the tip of that favorable im- pression however, there arrives tele- graphic word that the United States has sent a warship to oust Japanese from Wake Island south of Marcus Island. The Japanese papers claim the island was uninhabited until some of their bird catchers visited it, and profess to fail to understand what benefit the island would be to any nation.

...SOCIETY...

An incident. not in the programme of the flag-raisins at the sewanee grammar school on last Saturday evening, deserves record for its evidence of pluck and cool ness of a southern boy. The tall. slim pole had been rigged and all seemed ready for throwing Mrs. carter's handsome flag to the breeze. Then, with but few minutes to spare, the lines caught in the block The telephone men were far away and for a moment 1t seemed that the pretty ceremonial arranged might
 Hitch with the halyards. No time was to be lost. so Bugler Jacob Shall Yerger of Greenwood, Miss. sprang to the pole and volunteered to clear the lines. Not wait ing for orders or to remove khaki or even his stiff leggings this staunch chip of a noted southern block went up the eighty foot pole. "skinning up" like squirrel Reaching the top amid the usual flood of directions and suggestions. he cooly at tended to the business he had rislxed his neck for, and quietly hacked away at the rope. His knife proved dull. so he hung to his dizzy perch and drew up another and sharper one. Then he slid coolly to terra firma and went to his place in the ranks, apparently unconscious that he had done anything out of the common run of duty. In fact, he avoided all com plimentary reference to hfs plucl1y per- formanee. When Uncle Sam has another call for volunteers to defend the old flag this youngster should have a first choice,

MORE MURDER MYSTERIES. Beaumont Passing Through Another
 Period of Excitement.

Beaumont, Tex, August N.-It seems that Beaumont is to pass through anoth- CT series of murder mysteries similar to that which originated so much excite ment several months ago when five or six bodies were taken from the river in a short space of time.
 Sunday the body of a white man was found floating In the Nechez river about half a mile below the drawbridge of the Kansas City Southern railroad, and about noon yesterday the second body was found in the same vicinity.
 The foater found yesterday was buried without identification, but from appear ances it was the body of a Mexican la borer between 30 and 40 years of age. The body had evidently been in the water about two days and wien found was among some bushes and logs in such way as to make it necessary to tow it up the river a short distance before it was removed. There was a slight wound over the left eye. This wound might have been caused by a small caliber bullet. Absolute mystery surrounds the death.

ESTIMATED AT $15,ooo, ,ooo.
The Cuban Governments Expenditure
 Reaches Good Big Sum.

New York. August 27.-Fifteen million dollars Is estimated as the Cuban govern ment's expenditure in the national bud get which will be presented to congress next month, and the national income is placed, cables the Havana correspondent of the Herald, at $1S,0O0OOO, the same as during the military occupation. This pro- vides a surplus of $3,OO0.OO0.
 Confidence Is steadily increasing in President Palmas ability to cope with the situation. The senate bill providing for a national loan of $35, 900 which went to the house of representatives two weeks ago is still in the hands of the house committee.
 The sugar planters strongly favor the $4,000000 loan in aid Of agriculture but are indifferent regarding the proposed loan of $31, 000 to pay back salaries to the army. Members of the disbanded army. on the contrary, support the larger loan but are luke-war concerning the smaller. It Is generally believed that the interest and principal of the smaller loan could be taken care of under present conditions, but the payment of the larger loan would require an additional revenue to be raised, probably by a stamp tax.
