~
James X. Hackett made a fine stroke
as manager when he secured the dra-
matte rights of "The Crisis" says the
Philadelphia Press. Considerable dex-
terity has been shown in constructing
a rather brief play from Winston
Churchill's voluminous novel-a play
that is equally acceptable to Northern
and Southern audiences and in which
all the numerous. pitfalls are avoided
by emitting every historical character
who appears in the book. The play is
essentially episodical, but is consist
entity devoted to unfolding the love
story of Stephen Brice and Virginia
Carvel and the antagonism between
Brice and virginia's cousin, Clarence
Colfax. This is set in an atmosphere
charged with sectional feelings follow
ed by civil war, with the capture of
camp jackson, st. Louis, as the
most striking episode.
Some people may expect to have ev-
erything in the book put upon the
stage. They cannot be otherwise than
disappointed. Those who look to the
play for pleasing bit of romance be-
tween a Northern man and Southern
girl, who wish to see the leading fic-
tional characters visualized agreeably,
who expect to be entertained and in
terested, will not be disappointed. In
addition to this 1t can be said for the
play 1t is one Of the best of the drama s

not taken allotments, except among
what is known as the Mile Laos band,
many of whom have declined to go
to the White Earth reservation. When

Attorney Foster had not completed his

Then the defense must be heard and

that on the night of the fire Mr.. Gorton
was taken i'll, and the witness and
Mrs. Gorton worked over him for some
time. Mrs Gorton carried a lamp to
the kitchen, and soon after her return
to the sick chamber fire broke out In

woman undertook to remove Mr.. Gro
ton. They had to give this up and both
made their way out. Frantic with
fright, Mrs. Gorton suddenly returned
to the building and persisted with her
husband.
The witness was given a severe
cross examination, but held to his
story and was mistaken.

DEAD FISH CHOKE A CANAL.
Strange Nuisance PuzzIing the Health
Authorities of Louisiana.
the Health

New Orleans, July 11.-The situation
leans, is becoming serious in conse-
quence of the millions of buffalo fish
lying dead in the canal and in Bayou
Barataria. The Louisiana and New
Orleans boards of health and the Jener-
son authorities are puzzled how TO
abate the nuisance. For six miles the
bayou and the canal and their banks are
filled with fish which have been dead
since July 5.
The odor from them can be smelt for
miles away, and it has made many per-
sons in the neighborhood go to New
Orleans. Navigation of the canal is i'm
possible and the big mills of the Louis
lama Cypress Lumber Company, en-
ploying several hundred hands. and
other factories have been compelled to
shut down. The dairymen of the neigh
borhood have removed their cattle, as
the pollution of the stream has left
them without water.
The factories and persons in the
neighborhood have attempted to abate
the nuisance and large force of ne
groes has been put to work TO raft the
fish and throw them out on the banks
with long pitchforks. The men can on
ly be kept at work by being supplied
with whisky every half hour. They
have worked all day. and many thous-
ands of the dead fish have been hauled
out and burned.
1t is suggested, as the best way of
getting rid of the nuisance, that yes
sells with booms raft the dead fish down
stream several miles and the tide will
take them out. The plan OF burning
them has proved impracticable.
The fish are nearly all buffaloes, aN-
eraging about twenty-five inches in
length and weighing about fifteen
pounds. Only few catfish are found
among the dead. No satisfactory eX-
PLANTATION is given of the disease which
carried them off

oLEo AND BUTTER.
Manufacturers of the Former to Sell
CoIorinu Matter.

Washington, July 11.-Many small
farmers are showing anxiety concern
ing butter regulations. The law says
that if the maximum Of moisture ex-
ceeds 16 per cent the tax and license
will be collected. The officers antici-
pate material diminution on the
amount of revenue collected, but assert
that this does not necessarily mean a
decline in the output of oleomorgar-
inc.
:. Thebureau officials are inclined to the
belief that sales will continue to in
crease as a result of the determination
of manufacturers to sell with each
pound of the product small pellet of
coloring matter. Hotel and boarding
house keepers are prohibited from coll
oring oleo, but it may be done by fam
lilies. The practical operations of the
law cannot be determined until the
large stocks of colored oleo manufac-
tured by dealers.

suffering from nervous prostration, and
it was necessary to watch him closely.
Frequently of late he had grown des-
nondent over his condition and threat

several hours. While preparations We're
being made to send bloodhounds from

GEN MILES SUCCESSOR.
A Contest Between Corbin. chaffee
Bates, Macarthur and Wade.


Washington, July 11.-There is much
speculation in the army as to the prob
able successor of Lieut.. Gen. Miles, who
will retire by reason of age Aug. s, 1898,
but it is not generally known that the
duties of the office of commanding gen
eral are now largely performed by Gen.
S. B. NJ. Young, the president of the
war college. 1t is an open secret in the
war department that Gen. Miles is
commanding general in name only. His
name appears on office orders and rou-
tine papers pass thru his office, but
when advice is desired by the secretary
of war on matters affecting the army
Gen. Young is always called into con-
sultation. 1t is definitely known that
when Gen. Miles retires, either by rea-
son of age year from now or by or
der of the president, Gen. Young will
be named as his successor, but as Gen.
Young retires for age Jan. 9, 1904, he
will have only a few months to serve,
and the real interest centers in Sue
cessor to Gen. Young.
The friends of Maj. Gen. Corbin say
that he is the logical candidate by rea-
son of long service and in recognition
of his conduct of the war with Spain.
Gen. Corbin, however, declines to au-
thorize the use of his name in this con-
nection, and has already disavoWed an
