HoRsEwH1PPED THE MAYOR.
Protege of Carrie Nation Goes on a
 Tear in Topeka.

Topeka. Kas. March 24.-Miss Blanche Boise. a protege of Mrs. Nation. horse whipped Mayor Parker in his office at the city building today.
 Three times she slashed the Mayor and then he sprang at her, gripped her by the throat choked her, tore the rawhide out of her hand and pushed her into the hall.
 As Miss Boise was trust out of the office by Mayor Parker. she exclaimed:
 Thank God, I've done it. I've horse whipped you and now l am' going to horse whip the Governor"
 Before beginning her horse-whipping, Miss Boise gave the Mayor severe scolding and accused him of being respon- sible for the fact that the 'joints' are running openly in Topeka and for the re- cent murder committed in a saloon.
 She then pulled the horsewhip from the folds of her dress and struck the Mayor three times across the head and should CTS.
 Miss Boise is nurse by profession. She Is about 8 years of age.
 When seen by the reporters after the affair. Mayor Parker refused to discuss 1t. The woman who whipped him talked freely, She said: T was In sympathy with Mrs. Nation. but did not take part in her raids I have come to the conclu- sion that the only way to make public of ficers enforce the temperance laws Is to horsewhip them.

that the brave, skillful commanders, De- wet and Delarey. have arrived at the height of moral courage, once attained px General Lee, and have realized that the truest patriotism does not consist In the prolongation of hopeless struggle"
 The paper confesses, however. ithat the military situation is not suspicious for such a change of mind. The St. James Gazette extracts from the unilluminative dispatches thus far received from Pre- toria the theory that Mir. Schalk-Burger and the other members of the party have possibly already surrendered and have been released on parole for the purpose of seing President Steyni and General De- wet. The news from South Africa has generally good effect on the Stock Ex- change.
 The Associated Press has good reason to believe that Lord Kitchener. in his tn- terview with MT. Schalk-Burger agreed to withdraw the banishment proclamation issued in September if General Dewet and the other Boer leaders surrendered
 In the House of Commons today the war secretary, Mir. Frederick. announced that fortnight ago MT. Schalk-Burger intimated to Lord Kitchener his desire to be granted a safe conduct through the British lines and back, in order to see Mir. Steyn with reference to the possi- bility of peace proposals. Lord Kitche- ner, with the consent of the Government, has acceeded to the request.
 The announcement of the war secretary was received with cheers.

HOPES FOR HARMONY
UNANIMTTY OF ACTION DESIR-
 ED BY ROOSEVELT.
Seven of the Leading Opponents of the Plan for Rsc.procity With Cuba Call on the
 President.

Washington. March 24.-A conference was held at the White House this after noon between the President and seven of the Republican members of the House of Representatives who have been foremost in opposing the plan of Cuban reciprocity urged by the Ways and Means Commit tee and understood to have the support of the administration.
 These members were Representatives Tawney and Morris CMinn.). Dick (Ohio), William A. Smith (Mich), Minor (Wis.), Metcalf (Cal) and Dayton CW. va).
 As General Wood has arrived here from Cuba, and as several members of the Cabinet were at the White House, while the Congressmen were there. a report gained circulation that Secretary Root and General Wood were present during the conference. This, however, was not the case The talk took a wide range covering the conditions in Cuba. what should be done to meet these conditions: and also the question of harmonizing con- f1icting interests so that there might be unanimity of action on the part of the Republicans in Congress.
 The callers were frank to concede that they found the President desirous of ex- tending effective relief to Cuba by the reciprocity plan. In this connection. it was stated, the President drew attention to the fact that the Sibley amendment limiting the reciprocity period to Decem- ber 1, 1903. gave the Payne bill rather one-sided aspect, as 1t asked Cuba to adopt our naturalization and immigration laws and give us tariff concessions limit ed to about a year and half.
 Some of the Congressmen present were inclined to admit that we were asking a good deal from Cuba in return for the little we would grant her.
 The interchange of views became quite general, but there was nothing in the way of definite propositions.
 The suggestion was made that if the Payne bill had been modified so as to take off the differential on refined sugar, some of the grounds of opposition might have been removed. However, there was no request, so far as can be learned. that the bill be amended in this particular at the present stage. The plan of rebate, which was urged at one time. also came in for discussion and explanation.
 At the conclusion of the conference the general understanding was reached that any statements made to the public would be to the general effect that no conclu- sions were reached and that the confer ence was confined to a general inter- change of views. It Is understood that the President will see some of the mem bers of the Ways and Means Committee tomorrow, thus famliarizing himself with both sides of the issue which has recently arisen in the House He hopes that this general interchange with the leaders from both sides may bring about unanimity of action in whatever is done in heha1f of Cuha

THE PEACE PROPOSALS.
Amnesty For Cape Rebels is Said to
 be Essential.

Amsterdam, March Alt Is believed in Boer circles here that the move Of Acting President Schalk-B Burger Is the result Of a communication from the Boer represen- tatives in Europe. A former representa- tive of the Transvaal Government said today:
 After the exchange of the Dutch Eng fish notes, a conference was called for February. This conference was attend ed by MT Kruger, Dr. Leyds and the delegates, and it was decided to send six emissarics to South Africa by diffrent routes. with dispatches for Steyn and Schalk- Burger, giving them detailed account of the situation. One or these agents ought to have arrived about this time. -
 "Documents lately received from Schalk- Burger indicated that peace terms had been recently discussed by the lead CTS in South Africa, but the leaders de- cIared they could not accept anything less than the terms demanded at Middel- burg Cby General Botha. February 2S, I9OD and especially the point of com plete amnesty for Cape rebels because inc greater part of the commanders ac- tuaIly in arms are composed of Cape in- surgents
 .'The fact that the Boers In the field are inclined to compromise their demands for absolute independence" continued the sneaker. seems to be indicated by the plan Schalk- Burger has outlined for the t5oyernment for industrial centres. This consists of a British Board of Adminis- tration with proportional Boer represen- tation.'

PEACE MAY BE OUTCOME Schalk-Burger COnfers w with Kitchener COME UNDER TRUCE FLAG
London Skeptical as to Result
 of the Incident.
It is Said in The Hague That the Field Commanders Will Abide by Terms Secured by the
 Civilians.

Pretoria, March 2-Acting President schalk- Burger, F. W. Reitz. ex-Secretary of State of the Transvaal. and Command ants Lucas, Meyers and Krough, with their secretaries and attendants, arrived here March q. at 2:N p. m. on special train from Balmoral. about fifty miles east of here. They came into Balmoral under flag of truce.
 Upon arriving here. MT. Schalk-Burger and his party drove immediately to Lord Kitchener's headquarters, where he had an interview with the British General. The Boers afterwards proceeded to the railroad station and entrained at o'clock for Kroonstadt. whence they will go out under a safe conduct
 For a week past MT. Schalk-Burger and his colleagues have been stationed at Rhenoster Kop, north of Balmoral, where they have been closely pressed by Brit ish columns.
 Dispatch riders entered Balmoral Friday night and notified the British of the ap- proach of Mir. Schalk-Burger and his party.
 It is reported that the Boer position at Rhenoster Kop had become almost hope less and that MT. Schalk-Burger once narrowly escaped capture.

DINED WITH ROOSEVELT.
senor Palma Guest of the American
 president.

Washington, March 24-General T. Es- trada Palma, Presdent-elect of Cuba. met President Roosevelt in his official capacity for the first time tonight. when the former was the guest of honor at an informal dinner at the White House. The others present were Mrs. Roosevelt. Sec retary and Mrs. Root. Minister and Mrs. Bellamy Storer. General Leonard Wood. Seror Gonzalo de Quesada and Senor Die go Tamayo. we'll known Cubans. who came from New York with General Palma this afternoon.
 While the affair was largely of social character. the prospective transfer of Cuba from the Americans to the new Government provided for by the recent Constitutional Convention, was discussed and questions incident thereto received consider ation. The actual date for the transfer of the Government, it Is said. has not been definitely determined on yet. The date has been tentatively fixed as May 1, and the officials of this Govern ment have believed it could be accom- plished by that time. More recently. however, it has become apparent that for various reasons there may have to be a postponement of the transfer to date later in the month, say probably the 10th or the 20th. more likely the latter day.
 Mir. Palmer will go from here to New York and thence about the middle Of April to Cuba, proceeding first to Santi- ago province, where there are relatives and friends whom he desires to visit be- fore the inauguration.
