Colombian Minister Had offended score
tary Hay by His Opposition to the
Panama Canal Treaty.

Washington, Dec. 1.-Senor Concha
has been relieved as minister for Co
lombia by order from Bogota and it
is believed that DIR. Thomas Herran,
the present secretary of legation
here, will be the minister to succeed
Senior Concha in the course of few
days. Meanwhile DR.. Herran has been
clothed by his government with full
authority to prosecute the negotia-
toms looking to canal treaty with
considerably enlarged powers. IL
has been known that Minister Con-
cha has been fighting the proposed
Panama canal treaty and his opposi-
ton caused Secretary Hay some days
ago to lodge II protest with Colom-
bia against Concha's conduct.
Minister Concha, having stod fast
against several strong representa-
tons from his own government favor
ing n treaty, the latter decided to
place the further negotiations in the
hands of DIR. Herran., 1t is, of course,
assumed from this change that the
chances Of the treaty have been bet
tered.

THE MAN WHO WENT.
He Introduced q view Order Of Things
That Gould Not he Toll
Grated.

1--WE had a new business man strike
our place year ago." said a resident
of interior Michigan who was in De-
troit the other day, relates the Free
Press, "and his finish, which came last
week, was predicted from the start.
He bought out a grocery store in
which about o dozen Of us old resi-
dents used to gather six evenings
week to gossip, and his first move was
to drive us out. There was no more
story-telling-no more checkers-no
more good fellowship. II was the
breaking up of an institution founded
a dozen years before. We might have
hired the cooper shop for our nightly
meetings, and cobbler threw out
strong hints that we would be well
come, but men can't make such sud-
den changes. Some of us had to stay
home O. nights, to the great wonder
ment Of our families, and some had to
sneak into butcher shops and shoe
stores and be looked upon as intrud.
ers.
Every naturally our feelings were
hurt, and revenge was the only thing
thought of. We gave out that the
new man was stingy and mean; we
inveighed against his improvements
and his prices; we found fault with
him generally and personally, and the
man who bought pound of butter OF
him was marked down as bold-faced
enemy of American liberty.
1.-THE new man had spare capital and
lots of grit, and he fought back and
refused to be downed. We had the
advantage, however. He put his heel
on one of the customs of small town,
and had hit 200 men in hitting dozen.
He held out few weeks over year,
but the crash was inevitable. The
sheriff at last took possession and sold
him out, and no one heayed sigh
when he folded his tent and stole si-
lently away. He would have made
success in large city, but he did not
understand human nature as it may be
read in every small town. He was
good in his way, but it was the wrong
way. 1t would have been the same
had he bought out the butcher, the
druggist or the hotel man and
abolished their gangs.
settles lose their traditions in the
lapse of time, but small town clings
the closer to them as time goes on,
and the checker-board at the corner
grocer descends from father to son
with legitimacy that no one must
dispute"

Washington, Dec. 1.-The contest
over the omnibus statehood bill began
upon the meeting of congress. AS
soon as the senate adjourned there
was a conference in Senator Hale's
committee room attended by Sena-
tors Allison, Aldrich, Hale, Platt
Comm, Cullom, Lodge, Hanna and
Beveridge, the latter the chairman
of the committee on territories.
These gentlemen represented the re-
publcans who are opposed to the
omnibus bill admitting Oklahoma,
New Mexico and Arizona, and it is
understood favor bill admitting Ok
lahoma only. The friends of the
omnibus bill were also active, and
claim to have the names of Is repub-
lican senator's pledged to support the
omnibus bill. which, with the demo-
Gratis. will insure its passage. 1t is
probable that republican caucus
upon the subject will be held.

Those Maine Hunt SIM en-.

The making of regulations as hunts
men for those who visit the Maine
woods has become an industry, it is
said. A couple of young men near
Greenville, in that state, have built
camp supplied with three different
entrances and an assortment of camp
made signs for backgrounds, and
equipped in every way to make
hunting scenes at short notice. Gus
toners are dressed in worn hunting
clothes, surrounded with such loung-
ers as are at hand, dressed as guides,
and photographed as seated amid the
slaughter they have wrought. Game
of all kinds, either embalmed or
stuffed with hay, is kept ready; or, if
preferred, strings of wooden fish are
brought out to furnish pictured proof
of skill. This method of attaining
fame as nimrod is safe, and, perhaps
as good as the method which kills the
wild peoples Of the forest. Hunting
with the camera has been a success,
and camera as substitute for hunt
ing is likely to become popular.-Bos-

Statehood Still In Sight.

Washington, June 1.-The friends of
statehood still feel sanguine that the
senate committee will report the bill to
the senate at this session. The meas
urc has n strong advocate in Senator
Quay, and 1t has the sympathy of the
president, but the plea of the chairman
of the committee, Senator Bevcridge.
of Indiana, has been that there will be
no time to consider the measure at this
session, and that it was, therefore,
useless to report it. 1t is hoped how
ever, that there will be reconsidera-
ton of the action of the committee,
when it was decided to postpone the
consideration of the bill. One of the
opposition senator's has since expressed
himself as rather favorable to the bill,
and it is hoped that the committee will
decide to report it favorably. In that
event the friends of the bill think they
can get it passed before adjournment
