THE BOER VAR.
Tide Appears to Be Turning
Against the English.

The Hague, March 25.-Re-
garding the fears expressed in the
British press, the Beers would
not be inclined to recognize the
authority of the civil government
Of the South African republics IN
case the latter decided to ops n
peace negotiations. Well inform
ed persons here declare that such
a proposition s rnfounded. They
point out that the Boer civil ard
military authorities have always
worked IN perfect harmony and
that Mr.. schialk Burger and the
government could moi have pro
eeeded to the Orange River colony
via MIddIebnIg AMI Pretoria with
out at least the consent of Gen ;ral
Botha.
In conclusion it Is said the final
decision as to whether peace over
lures shall be made re sts entirely
in the hands of the burghers, who
will have TO decide upon it at
public meeting. Mr.. Kruger has
not yet received any telegraphic
adyices from South Africa nor
has the junta, but they undoubt-

co. B IS WILLING
To Meet Brainerd Company in a
Rifle Match.
MATCH DEPENDS ON BIS FRIENDS
Company Not in a Position to Make
Up 5000 Purse Proposed
s. 't by Brainerd. 49,

The chance for first class and highly
interesting team shoot between crack
teams of the National Guard OF Minnesota
lies with the friends Of Company B, First
infantry. A few days ago Company +,
Third infantry, Brainerd, Mimi, published
challenge, stating that, the friends Of
the company had raised 5000 which they
We're willing to place against like sum
that Company Fs team could best the
team Of Company B. Company B. ID
ready to take the time and do the shoot
ing, but its members are not in a position
to advance the $500. 1t depends on their
friends therefore, and some Of those most
interested believe that the friends OF the
company and the National guard Of the
state will not be slow in closing the ar
ransements in order to. secure what would
certainly be one Of the most interesting
OF rifle matches. r-..~ L..
Whatever is done will have to be done
quickly. as tho time at which the shoot
will have to be held will be between Aug.
4 and 6, inclusive. TIL O urna l Is
ready to receive contributions under the
terms Of the following proposition as out
lined by Captain F. B. Rowley of Company
B and member of the company's rifle
team. ''s3
Replying to the challenge made by the
friends Of Company F, Third infantry, N, G.
S. A., for a rifle contest between teams from
O. sIy F, Third, and Company B, First
!D--.1i.-y, the communication came to hand so
H.: to make it hard to get our team to-
/ s. and perhaps, to secure the full 5000
to cover the amount placed by the friends
Of Company F.
One member, at least, OF our team Is out
of the city and may not return in time for the
contest. However, we feel that q contest Of
this kind would be Of benefit to both teams
and we will be pleased to meet the Company
F team on the following conditions: That
the contest be held at Lake City on Aug. 4,
or 6, and shall be entirely separate from
other contests in progress on those dates,
this being necessary owing to the fact that
several OF the Company team can only
be present one day, the one on which the
match OCCURS; that the teams shall consist Of
seven men each, each one Of whom shall have
been bona fide member Of his respective
company during and since the last encamp-
uaent; that the ordinary company team shoot
rules shall govern, viz: Each man to fire ten
shots at 200 300 and 800 yeads respectively, all
firing shall be under the supervision OF Cap
tain 0. E. Lee l. s. A. P, First brigade, and
all disputes to be settled by him; that the
5000 deposited on behalf of the Brainerd COM
pany having been raised entirely outside Of
the membership, the Company B team or
the membership Of Company shall cover no
part of the $500, but only such amounts as
may be deposited with the Minneapolis Jour-
nal prior to Aug. shall constitute the sum OF
money contested for.

BASEBALL
AMERICAN ASSOCIATION

Jack Katon returned to town yesterday
from his honeymoon and pulled the mill
ers out OF the slough of desponM by win
ming a game for them from the fast In
dianapolis team. On his first time at the
bat he was presented with a carving sat
in a handsome leather case and he earned
the gift and more beside. ssl 81 ,sE &
He threw that swift down shoot to per-
fection and the Indians with the exception
OF Dummy" Kihm passed up his delivery.
When he got into rather tight place he
ended the agony by striking out batter
or two.
He had good support from Phyle and
Grant, who played sensational ball max
Ing some of the most startling Of plays.
BILLY" Phyle is sure enough star and
Grant would be one Of the wonders OF the
season II he could snite the ball a little
harder. ~
Williams. the Indian twirler, was work
ing in the safe class at Katoll and was
a vanishing quantity for all the millers
except Phyle and Werden, who are about
the only members of the team to bat
consistently. e.. ~ Il, r., E'-s.;s.s.. ~ Ses~
Without the errors in the game the
score would have been to 0 in favor Of

Washington, July 29.-The government
is doing business just now on a losing

behind something over $11.O00,000. The
Income has been cut down and the ex-
penditures have increased. there is a
deficit In prospect. hTe only question Is
deficit In prospect. The only question is
that 1t will be in the vicinity of $50, O,000,-

This Is the first month Of the new fiscal
year. II 1t is not usually regarded as a
typical month The expenses during July
are always heavier and the income fails
OFF, The drafts on new appropriations
drain the treasury, and the business Of
the country is apt to be SO dull that the
customs receipts and internal revenue
dwindle. Therefore, the treasury Off
cials are not basing their estimates Of
future shortages from their July ex-
perience. II they did, they would have
the doleful prospect Of deficit Of some
thing over $500, 100000.
At the same time, the two statements
or July OF this year and July year ago
will bear comparison During July, a
year ago, the income was just about equal
to the outgo; both were, in round num-
bers, $52.00O,000. For this month the
figures are not available up to date; but
on the 25th the revenues were only lit
tie more than 81, 900, 900, while the expen-
Mturess had already outrun this figure by
$11 100000. The total revenues for the
month will be, roughly, $4,000 900, as
against $62,00O,0O0 for the same month
last year. = = d
This falling off is due chiefly lyto the
Wiping out Of the war revenue taxes. It
is estimated by congress that this legis-
lation would reduce the revenues about

Secretary Gage estimated that the surplus
for the coming fiscal year would be only

Child Labor In the South

Census officials who have made special
study Of the cotton industry in the south
report that child labor Is increasing there,
and that the average life of child work
Ing In the mills is four years. Those who
grow up have absolutely no education,
and are more ignorant in many instances
than the children Of the blacks 1t is
claimed that New England capitalists are
principally interested in the mills and,
but for their influence, there would have
been congressional investigation and re-
port Of conditions there.
A Chance for Naval Cadets.
The naval appropriation bill which be-
came law at the late session, provided
for an Increase in the number OF naval
cadets, apportioned on the basis Of one
for each senator, with few to be named
by President Roosevelt. Each senator
was notified of the increase and asked to
name principal nd Ave alternates, who
could be examined on Aug. H. by exam
ing boards of the civil service commits
sion, meeting in different sections Of the
country. Up to date, however, the re-
sponses have been few. None Of the
senators from Minnesota, North and
South Dakota, Iowa or Wisconsin, have
nominated candidates. They have until
the first Of August to submit names and
have been warned that the time is short.

WITH THE EQUINES

The grand circuit meeting opened at Colunl-
bus Yesterday with all conditions favorable
for successful week of trotting and pacing.
The weather was warm and delightful, until a
hard storm blew up shortly before o'clock
and drenched the track-so thoroughly that the
2;O9 pace, IN which: three heats had been de-
cided had to be postponed until to-day.
Before the storm the track was lightning
fast, and every heat winner lowered his
mark The fields in the three races on the
card were small, as many of the owners
preferred to reserve their entered horses for
stake events later in the week.
