UNITED ESTATES BIG GUN
CAN LIE IN MID-O OCEAN AND SHAT TER COAST CITIES
General Wood Sends Letter to War Department One of the Last of the Filipino Leaders Captured
 Flags Cut Down---Englishman Coming to Study Conditions
Most Powerful Gun in theWorld

The U. S. has just developed can non that will be the despair of foreign gunmakers. A gun has been built, weighing only four tons and with only 41s-inch caliber, which the experts fig. ure, will throw a 555-pound shell twenty-five miles.
 After fifteen years of experiment the new gun has finally been perfected.
 It is called the "Brown regimental wire tube rapid-fre" gun.
 The speed of the shell is almost be- yond comprehension. The projectile starts with q velocity of 4000 feet per second, sails ten miles into the air and strikes the earth twenty-five miles away, ,all in.one minute and 4S seconds. It requires only 32 pounds of powder to accomplish this.
 The tube and foundation of the gun are of curled sheets of steel one-seventh of an inch thick. Ten miles of wire is wound into each gun, giving a tube that will stand the unheard-of pres- sure of 92,000 pounds to the square inch.
 The range and energy of this gun are attained by using comparatively big powder chamber. together with long barrel, and special carriage has been designed to stand the recoil that comes from firing the gun on an angle of forty degrees.
 Time was when it was considered that New York. owing to the batteries at Sandy Hook and on Coney Island, was impregnable to the guns of hos tile fleet. Now, foreign fleet armed with such gun as this might lie out of sight of Sandy Hook and blow New York off the map.
 It is regarded as impossible to burst this new gun with powder.
 It will stand charge that would blow built-up piece of ordnance into smithereens.

Burglar Emory Gets Ten Years

Tacoma police are greatly relieved over the sentencing to the Walla Walla penitentiary of the burglar, c. D. Emory, for ten years. Emory was taken to Walla Walla Saturday. For twenty years he has been one of the most persistent criminals on the Coast, being especially we'll known in San Francisco and Los Angeles. He has served four sentences in California, as follows: April, 1880, embezzle- ment, two years ;r March, 1882, burg lary, second degree, three years; Jan uary, 1885, burglary; first degree, ten years; October, 1891, burglary, second degree, five years.
 After burglarizing the residence of James Nichols of Tacoma, several months ago, Emory mailed mining stock valued at $500 to Grifiiths X O'Hara, at No. 123 Silver street, San Francisco. After his arrest, he wrote requesting them to forward the stock that he might use the proceeds of its sale in hiring attorneys to defend him. His letter was sent to the San Francisco police, who recovered the stock, which was returned to it's owner.
 Emory says he made the trip through California when President Mckinley was touring the state, finding an excel lent opportunity to ply his trade He entered q Los Angeles hotel, and took a wallet containing $500 from the room of Admiral Melville. In another Los Angeles house, he obtained only a stamp collection. The stamps proved rare and he sold them for $1S0. Emory's story that another man is serving time in Walla Wala for a burglary committed by him at Seattle is being investigated.

NAKED AND THROAT CUT
Body of Samuel Collins Found in Cave
 North of Salt Lake City

The naked body of Samuel Collins,
 with the throat cut from ear to ear, was found by number of boys in a small cave in the hills north of Salt Lake City shortly after noon Satur- day. The police say it is a case of suicide; others think that Collins was murdered, and his body thrown into the cave, the entrance of which was partly closed by number of rocks. The ground within the cave, and inn mediately outside, was covered with blood. With the exception of his shoes, stockings and suspenders, none of the mans clothing has been found. Collins had been well educated, and at one time was quite wealthy, but is said to have lost fortune in stock speculation in New York and San Francisco. He was about 65 years old, and has brother. in New York.

BLIZZARD IN COLORADO
Cattle on Ranges Suffer and Great
 Losses Feared

A general storm prevailed on the eastern slope of the Rocky mountains in Colorado last week. Snow fell con- tinuously in Denver and vicinity for twenty-four hours. At some points on the mountains the storm reached the proportions of blizzard. Cattle on the ranges in the northeastern portion are suffering severely, being in too weakened condition from exposure and lack of water to withstand the pres ent storm. Conditions in that section are extremely serious and great losses are almost sure to come. Trouble over the fencing of the water holes by small herd owners is likely to break out any time unless the larger stock owners are allowed to drive their cattle to the watering places.

TO RAISE THE MAINE
General Wood Sends Letter to the War
 Department

General Wood has brought to the at tention of the war department, through the medium of formal letter, the pro- priety of making some arrangement for raising the wreckage of the Maine from the ooze and mud in which she lies embeded in Havana harbor. It is stated by him that not only are there sentimental reasons for this, owing to the fact that according to common be- lief, the remains of forty or fifty American soldiers lie within the sunk en hulk, but this heavy steel structure is also a menace and obstruction to navigation in the harbor of Havana and it is our duty to the Cubans to re- move 1t. The epxense attached to the undertaking is very heavy, the bids ranging anywhere from $400,000 to $7OO,00O

POOR CHOCTAWS
Gov. Dukes Appeals to the Acting Sec
 retary of the Interior

Gov. G. w. Dukes, principal chief of the Choctaw Nation, I. T., has ad- dressed an appeal to Thomas Ryan, acting seretary of the Interior, ask ing for aid for 0,000 destitute citizens of the Choctaw Nation. The request comes as a surprise, as Restitution was not known to exist to such an extent. The governor says:
 "A great many of the Choctaw peo- pie are poverty-stricken, and some of them are in actual starvation. App peals have been made to me to aid them in their distressed condition some calling to me to provide ways and means for their sustenance, while others are driven to beg for breadstuffs. I would say as a conservative estimate that at least ten thousand of them are in destitute circumstances.
 eff the general distress be not re- lieved, the condition threatens to become serious with them all"

To California members of Congress President Roosevelt has expressed opinions on Chinese exclusion. He said he favored more rigid exclusion of coolies and less rigid exclusion of the merchant and student classes. He criticised some sections of the Kahn Mitchell bill and suggested amend ments along these lines. In order to avoid the possibility of veto, the presidents suggestions are likely to be followed.
