.of their ambition much sooner than
many persons now thought possible.
So far as the government was con-
cerned the surrender promises would
be kept in spirit as we'll as in letter.
The government, he said, was bound
\ 10th by honor ana interest to this
course. There remained many qtles-
tions to be dealt with; a new tariff
must be arranged involving intricate
questions concerning which experts
must be consulted and the taxation
of mines must be settled, but he
wished to say that nothing would be
done to punish owners of mines as had
been suggested in many quarters.
The government would do nothing
to interfere with a quick revival of
development of the country. Subject
to that consideration, Mr.. Chamberlain
continued, no man was more anxious
than he to recover some considerable
part of the cost of the war from South
Africa. He thought it would be per-
fectly fair to lay q just share of the
war on the principal industry Of the
Transvaal, but what amount it was
too soon to say.
In concluding his speech Mr.. Cham
berlain said:
"We have no intention that the
Beers should break with their old ira
ditions. We desire that they should
preserve all the best characteristics of
their race and hope they will shake
hands with us, thus securing pros
perity in South Africa under the flag
which protects different races and diff
ferent religions.'

Cape Town, July 30-Generals De.
larey and Botha were given an ova-
tioI at .Shellenbosch. They were
driven to the town hall and each of the
two carriages was drawn by sixty stu
dents. At a luncheon which followed
the students acted as walters.
General Botha, in feeling address,
said the day of surrender was the
most painful of his life, but now that
it had been done he prayed earnestly
that his hearers should consider it
Gods will. Although Afrikander ma
tionality, in manner, had been bur-
led, it would remain the most impor-
tant factor in the social life of South
Africa.
General Botha paid a tribute to
former President Steyn's abilities as
a statesman. "Now let us stop both
ering ourselves about politics. said
the general, "and try to make our.
selves, happy in South. Africa because
we have no home elsewhere" "a
Generals Botha and Delarey will
proceed to England, the U1ited States
and Canada to collect funds for the
relief of widows and orphans Of Boer

BUILDINGS SHAKEN UP.
Nebraska's Earthquake More Severe
Than First Reported.

Nebraska's Earthquake More Severe
Than First Reported.
Omaha, July 30-Reports received
Nebraska indicate that Mondays
earthquake was more general than at
first reported and quite severe in some
places. At Oakdale buildings were
considerably shaken up and at Battle
Creek the disturbance lasted half a
minute. Tilden, Norfolk, Creighton,
Plainview, Pierce and Negligh report
shocks lasting twenty seconds and at
Elgin three distinct quakes were felt.
At none of these towns, however, was
there any serious damage, the break
ing of windows and dishes and crack
ing of plaster being the extent of the
destruction.
In Dixon county, in the neighbor-
hood of Mount Ionia, which was re-
ported as smoking and rumbling sew
eral months ago, CONSERVATION en-
sued. Early reports claimed the town
of Battle Creek, Neb., was severely
injured. Details, however, show only
nominal losses there. Brick walls
were cracked, pictures thrown down
and panic ensued among the people.
AT Petersburg, Neb., the same gen.
eral losses occurred. The country
over which the shock was felt is 200
miles square and included two Indian
reservations. Here, while no damage
occurred by reason of the nature of
houses, the greatest excitement was
caused. Among the towns reporting
the heaviest shocks are Neigh, Oneill,
Norfolk, Tilden, Hooper, Battle Creek,
Petersburg, Ewing, Plainview, Albion
and Madison. r..
At Santee agency the quake caused
some excitement for while and was
plainly felt by people on the streets.
Many windows were shattered and
dishes ratified from shelves.
The shock appears to have been
more clearly felt along the boundary
line between Nebraska and South Da-
kota, although places in both states
were affected.

under the direction Of their mothers.
In those countries even the little ones
are always expected to pay their share
Of the household expenses and carry
their share Of the load. The children
Of America have not yet been reduced
to that necessity, although no doubt it
would be a good thing for them.
Secretary Wilson thinks that silk
raising ought to be introduced into
the south because the climate is espe-
cially adapted for it and the colored
women and children could earn a good
deal of money that way.
The census has disclosed some very
interesting and surprising information
concerning the manufacture Of silk in
the United States and shows that we
are second to France only in the an
nual value Of our silk production.
Only a few years ago we were de-
pendent entirely upon France and
Italy, but during the last ten years ev-
cry weave, every article and quality
known to silk manufacturers has been
produced in this country as we'll and
generally better than in Europe, and
we now furnish practically everything
except a few specialties and novelties
in the way Of fancy dress goods. vel
vets and ribbons, which still come
from France.
During the year 1900, 70 per cent Of
the silk dress goods worn in the United
States were manufactured here and IS
per cent of the ribbons. In 1900 we
produced $1O7, 7,256,25S worth Of silk
goods and imported only $26,S03, $40.
There are now in operation in the
United States two and one-half times
as many looms as there were ten years
ago. Some Of our mills turn out a
hundred thousand pieces Of sixty yards
to the piece every year. More raw
silk is sold annually in New York
than is consumed in France, which is
the largest silk consuming country in
Europe, and the United States now
ranks second to France among the silk
producing nations in the value Of silk
goods produced. Connecticut takes the
lead, Massachusetts is second and New
Jersey third. r
There is no longer any competition
from abroad in machine twist, sewing
silk and other threads. The manufac-
lures Of the United States surpass the
world in that particular. They took
the highest awards at the Paris ex-
position, and their goods bring better
prices than those of any other country,
in Paris, London, Berlin and other
great commercial centers. There is q
shop in Berlin where nothing else, is
sold but American machine silk, but
it is purchased only by the wealthy
classes, the expensive milliners and
and the manufacturers
Of high grade gloves, clothing and oth-
er articles for which silk is used. Con-
necticut takes the lead in sewing silks
and produces Al per cent, Of the total
product Of the United States. l

ashore and sunk. Five passengers
were drowned and the rest reached
the shore on wreckage and driftwood.
Another large vessel in the bay was
also damaged by the tornado.
Between Guaymas and Mazatlan a

and it is supposed that many small
vessels were wrecked and large num-
ber of lives lost. ~.

PROFIT IN SILK RAISING

of the Domestic Supply Could BE
Raised by the Wives and Daugh-
ters of Farmers-How European
Peasants Are Aided by the Industry
Secretary Wilson has secured an ap
preparation of $4,000 from congress
for the purpose of making experiments
in the raising of silkworms and the
production Of raw silk, says William
q. Curtis, the Washington correspond
ent Of the Chicago Record-Herald. We
are now importing about $45,OO0,OO(
worth Of raw silk annually, and Mr.
Wilson thinks that it is possible for us
to raise a good deal Of the supply in
our own country if the wives and
daughters of the farmers and people
who live in the villages will take up
the> industry. It is particularly suit
able for women and children, and the
wives and daughters on the farms and
in the villages, by spending a little
time every day, might earn a liberal
supply of pin money without interfer-
ing with their household duties or
their education or their pleasure. In
France not less than 10000 families
are engaged in the cultivation of silk
without interference with their other
duties. In Italy nearly as many Of the
peasants are engaged in the same in
dustry. In that way the girls earn
and save money for their marriage
dowries. Silk raising is simple enough
for any one Of ordinary intelligence to
carry on. It is no more difficult than
keeping chickens or bees, and the
profits are very much larger. .
There have been many attempts,
however, to introduce silk culture into
the United States, but they have al
ways failed because other crops have
paid better and it has never been nec-
our farm population to earn their own
living. They have always been sup
ported by their fathers and brothers.
AS early as 1905 King James I. Of
England introduced silkworms into
Virginia, which accounts for the null
berry trees around Williamsburg and
on the old plantations of the Kappa
hammock and the James. 1t didn't
pay. Tobacco and cotton were much
more profitable crops. For the same
reason a similar experiment was aban-
doned in New England the latter part
of the eighteenth century.
There is no question as to the ability
to raise silk wherever the mulberry
tree will grow, and 1t will thrive any,
where between the gulf and the great
lakes and the Atlantic ocean and the
arid plains. But the worms require a
great deal Of attention and detailed
work. which the American people are
not accustomed to perform. In Japan,
China, France, Italy, Switzerland, Tur..
key and other countries children are
eynaefad to look q fter the silk worms

New York, July 30-General Perico
Delgado is under arrest, according to a
World dispatch from Havana, charged
with having assassinated Antonio
Acosta, a nephew of Colonel Baldome-
70 Acosta.
The arrest has caused a profound
sensation as General Delgado is one of
the best known Cubans. He command
ed the Cuban sharpshooters, who op-
Grated against Weyler's black Spanish
guerrillas in the late revolution. He
is now an officer of the Cuban rural
guard.
General Delgado's trial promises to
be sensational as there has been much
mystery surrounding the disappear
ance of young Acosta from his home
six weeks ago. It is said that Colonel
Acosta, the young mans uncle, OBJ
tanned private information that his
nephew was seized by guards under
Delgado's direction and afterward was
seen taken from the police station at
night, handcuffed, and between two of
Delgado's men.
Young Acosta was aide-de-camp to
General Delgado during the recent
war and for a long time was his con.
fidential secretary. Not long ago
charges were made against Delgado
by a number of cattle owners in con-
E nection with the operation of cattle
thieves.

Sir Henry Campbell-Bannerman
supplemented his congratulations by
asking for information of the colonial
that lenient treatment would be ex-
tended to the Beers in South Africa.
Mr.. Chamberlain, in reply, said the
one spirit animating the members of
the conference was the desire to draw
closer together the constituent parts
of the empire and he thought safe to
say that the conference had made i'm
portant progress towards a perfect
union to which he himself looked for
ward. Regarding South Africa Lord
Miner, the high commissioner, had
telegraphed spontaneously that he did
not think further legislation neces-
sary to make the banishment procla-
nation effective. The government,
however, reserved to itself the impor-
