Seattle, Wash, July Harry Ira
cey, the Oregon convict, has again
eluded his pursuers. after display of
great daring His last act was TO i'm
press a farm hand into embarking on
the sound in a rowbOat late Saturday,
and at noon yesterday Sheriff Cudihee
chartered the tug Sea Lion and with
a posse started in pursuit. According
TO information received at the sheriff's
Office here yesterday Tracey slept In a
graveyard on the outskirts of Seattle
after his battle Thursday night with
Seattle officers. On Friday morning
he proceeded to the ranch of man
named Fisher, secur, d food and slept,
and rested III the woods all that day
and night Early Saturday morning
he appeared at Meadow Point, OF the
water front three miles north of Seat
tie, his original point of landing.
Takes Charge of a Ranch.
There he compelled Il Japanese fish
er boy to row hun 10 Madison Point,
twelve miles across and down the
sound from Seattle. He dismissed the
boy, declaring that the latter would
be killed by Tracey's pal if he told of
the trip. They landed near the home
Oh Rancher Johnson, and Tracey
watched the house for an hour to make
sure of the number of men there.
Finding but two, he entered and an
nounced that he intended to kill every
one on the ranch and take charge of
thu place for a few days. He added:
but after seeing your pretty little
giri | will kill no one if you all mind
me. / will be here all day"
Why He Had to XIII Two Officers.
The family prepared breakfast fer
Tracey and put one Plate on a table
against the wall This is not right"
declared the convict. Put the table
in the middle of the room and all sit
down with me-" This was done. Ira
cey then read Friday evenings papers,
and after learning how Mrs. Van Horn
had betrayed his presence in her house
to the butcher boy said he had been
careless in not keeping every one in
that house constantly under his eye
My carelessness i'm this respect made
it necessary to kill two officers" lie
said.
Went Away Well Fixed.
He forced the JOhnSonS to give him
bundle of clothing and hats and six
days supplies of food, cooked for him;
put ON Johnson's suit of Sunday black
and had the food, clothing and blan-
kets made into bundles. At 8 p. N. he
bound and tightly gagged the johnson
family, made their hired man, Ander
son. carry the bundles to Johnson's
rowboat, put Anderson in the boat at
the oars and started down the sound.
Mrs. Johnson released herself and the
others two hours later, and notified
Deputy Sheriff Mckay, who lives at
Madison Point And that is how Sher-
iff Cudihee comes to have taken wa
ter in this case fifteen hours behind
the man he wants.

South American diplomats in Wash
ington. The prevailing view is that
nothing but a most acute situation
would cause President Castro to drop
the reins of government at Caracasand
take personal charge of the Venezuelan
army at Valencia. and in these quar-
tiers it is firmly believed he is to lead
foriOrn 4 ope and must surely sue
cumb to cle threatened heavy on
slaughts OF revolutionary forces.
Others Believe He VIII Win.
In other quarters however, conf
dence is expressed that Castro will re-
pei the impending attack just as lie has
done many others that have confront
ed him il the past years of his adj
milistration. and further enhance his
record as a fighter. Valencia is town
second in Importance only TO Caracas,
and lies about 100 miles from the cap
ital, almost directly west. 1t is the
base of military operations, has a large
population. nd in many respects is the
most import ant town in the republic.
1t is regarded here as the "Open
sesame" 10 fhe capital itself, and it is
believed its capture would herald the
early capitul ltion of the seat of gov
eminent and the occupation of the
" elbow House" at Caracas by the
re Volutionary leaders
Castro Changes His Plans.
Willemstad, Curacao, July S.-Pres-
1dent Castro. of eueZuela, left Cara
cas- Sunday for La Guayra. taking with
him his private guard of 500 veteran
soldiers and General Ferrer, as chief
OF staff. The president reached La
Guayra at 3 o'clock in the afternoon.
and left there at midnight on the
steamer OSsun, his destination being
Guanta or Barcelona, about 80 miles
east of La Guayra. He intends to re-
organize the government forces at and
about Barcelona, and assume the of
fcnSive against the fevolutioniStS at
once. Nobody at Caracas can explain
this change in President Castro's
plans, which were at first to go to
Valencia, and the step taken is con-
sidered To be as perilous as the inva-
sion of the Valencia district by the
main army of the revOlutionsts. This
force will be opposed by the govern
ment army under General SeferinO Cas-
tillo.
Governments Force Completely Routed.
Later in the day news reached here
from Venezuela to the effect that 1900
government troops under General Mo-
desto Castro. the presidents brother.
were completely routed July between
Barcelona and Aragua by troops of
the revolutionary army under the COM
mand of General Rolando. The gov
eminent forces lost all their ammuni-
ton and equipment, and many of the
soldiers deserted to the revolutionists
during the engagement. After the bat
tie the revolutionary army moved on

NO MINNESOTA STANDARDS.
There is Not an Official Weight or Measure
in the State.

Recent complaints regarding
short weights and measures which
have been made against local re-
tailers, have induced County Treas
urer D. G. Bell, who is the Official
sealer of weights and measures in
Hennepin county, to look into the
law governing the case. Some time
ago Mr.. Bell was called on officially
to seal beer measure owned by
be attempted to reply to the request
the stan dard measure could not be
found. He then applied to the State
treasurer, who wrote back SAYING
The Redwood gazette., 1902-12-10

that the State treasury had been
without official weights and meas
ures ever since the old capitol
burned. This is more than twenty
years ago, aud as the law requires
that all weights and measures ia
possession OF county authorities
must be compared with the State
standards at least once every Eve
years to make them legal, it follows
that there is not a legal weight
measure in the whole State.
In response to Mr. Bell S inquiry.
State Treasurer Black replied that
he could do nothing in the matter
unless the legislature should take
action empowering him to seclrc a
set of standard weights and meas
ures from the federal government at
Washington. where the standards
for the country are kept.
The city standards are compared
with those of the county. and
unless the county weights and
measures are legal. it must follow
that the city standards could not
withstand a test case. should one
be brought.
For these reasons Mr.. Bell has
appointed no deputies and Heune-
pin county. in common with other
counties of the State, has no men
who are competent to pass upon the
measures or weights used bv trades
men in their business. -Minneapo-

SEVENTY-FIVE TONS A MINUTE.
Over 5000 Tons of IrOn-Ore Loaded in
an Hour.

Iron ore was loaded at the Cnica-
90 & North western docks at Ash
land, Wis, at the tremendous rate
of speed of ). 900 tons an hour. The
exact figures were 1902 tons in one
hour and eight minutes. the ore be-
ing loaded into the steamer James
H. HOyt, which is built with a spec
ial view to rapid loading and un-
loading.
The Northwestern line has two
big ore docks at Ashland. eat one
Of them being one-third of a mile
long, and it was at one Of these
large storage docks that the Hoyt
received it's load in record breaking
time. Supt. Sampson Of the North
western personally supervised the
loading. and several newspaper men
Witnessed it and corroDorated the
correctness Of the record. The
last ore was let into the nOlQ. and
the lines were cast OF in record
breaking time. ia fact. the engineer
OF the boat hardly found time to get
the water ballast out Of the vessel.
This rapid work is made possible
by the exceptional facilities Of the
North western line. Large capacity
cars and big docks with large stor-
age capacity have made the hand
ling Of tremendous quantities of
ore possible. The docks of the
North western line at Ashland and
have a capacity exceed
ing that Of any other line in the
Lake Superior region. to which is to
be added one now building, which,
when completed will increase their
almost 80 per cent and be

the rails were connected, but it will
be at least two weeks yet before

been issued by the railroad com

LUNCH GOT MIXED.

Say. Hadenwall, what was that about the Ben McCree taking a party out for a sail and someone getting the lunch mixed!" asked yachtsman.
 Hadenwall sat down before reply ing. We were to start at 4, have SUD- per on the lake and be back by 10, he explained. "One of the young la dies insisted that she be allowed to bring the lunch. She had sailed with us before and we trusted her implicit ly. so when she gave me a big box Saturday afternoon I handled it very carefully as 1 put it in the locker.
 We had a lovely sail and at T I gave the tiller to our man and we all went below for super. We made cof- fee and the girls got out the dishes : the girl who got up the lunch began tearing the paper off the box. She opened it-and you should have seen her face. Instead of a lot of sand Wlches there was a pair of fresh pressed trousers. We all laughed ex- cept the girl. She began to cry and be- tween sobs threatened to do all sorts of things to that brother of hers for playing such horrid joke. I squared her brother right there. for I knew no one who had sailed as much as he had would Intentionally risk a pair of fine trousers on any boat.
 We were about 10 miles from shore and as hungry as only yachtsmep can De when there is nothing on bt .trd to eat. The girls said they would ,nTher sail than eat, but We men thought the sooner we reached the shore rnr man. pier we should be- As We made the mooring Tom megaphoned us from the club house and wanted 10 know whath.

That night when he started to dress for dance he opened the box and found the sandwiches Of course he blamed it on the bovs and his telephone message nearly melt ed the wires.

AN ILLUMINATED ARENA.


 Tn the evolutionary development of organizations for popular entertain ment in recent years. obseryant old timers note nothing more worthy than the progress in methods of illumination for large arenic spaces, either under canvas or in the open air. Not so very long ago the circus was lighted by a lot of candles stuck upon a great wooden frame surround ing and suspended from the center pole. Then, what was regarded as a wondrously brilliant effect was achieved by the substitution of kero- sene or gasolene lamps in place of the candles. Sometimes the lamps add ed nightly to the temporary anima- ton of the proceedings by exploding, and generally they made an offensive smell. but such things were accepted philosophicallv.
 When the biggest and most progress sfye of all the great circuses intLS- duced the calcium light to heighten the spectacular effects of certain sen sational acts, people gasped with won- der and rival shows suffered bangs of envy
 But tke greatest advance in truly scientific illumination was that achieved by Messrs Cody and Safs- bury for the lighting of the vast open air arena of their Wild West exhibi- tion. Forty-six railway cars are re duired to transport this gigantic ag- gregation and it's impediments. but a dozen or more would have been need ed to carry the myriad of lamps and many barrels of gasolene that would have been necessary to light up per formances in field large enough for the evolutions of a cavalry regiment. Even then, lamps. however numerous could not have been so placed as to Illuminate the center of the arena without putting them where their sup ports would have been very incon- venient and probably dangerous cb- etacles Calcium liunts were tried with only partial success, owing to

the lack of diffusion of their beams. Clearly, the only illuminantS that could possibly meet the difficult re- quirements were powerful electric lights. But it would be manifestly impracticable to procure sufficient elec- tEicity from local sources of supply in any but very few of the places where the Wild Vests performances would be given in the course of sea- son. To have it when and where wanted, and in adequate volume, it would be necessary to carry along the means for it's production and employ ment To this end. two huge dyna- mos, with the powerful engines for their operation geared directly to them, were designed. constructed and mounted upon a couple of enormous steel trucks. They proved an unqual- flied success, supplying easily electric currents capable of maintaining arc lights of over 250,000 candle power, equivalent to, say, 16,0O0 bright gas jets.

VAUDEVILLE AT THE JACQUES.

VAUDEVILLE AT THE JACQUES.
 Manager Poli has struck it again at the Jacques, evidently, for the two large audiences that were in evidence yesterday afternoon and evening laughed, enthused, applauded, mar veled and commended in a way to leave no room for mistaking their en- joyment. Matthews and Harris in Adam the Second" are starred as the headliners, and they certainly make good The sketch is from the pen of the noted Will NJ. Greasy, and it tells the story of maiden who has been brought up by her mother and nurse on the summit of the Andes noun tains in South America with absolute ly no Knowledge of the male creation. Suddenly a man descends in a balloon upon her home, and creation opens up anew for the unsophisticated maiden. He instructs her in the new happiness and the conversation is thoroughly amusing, albeit it is on a high plane. The act is a most entertaining one, ar tistically played, and is as amusing as can be imagined. Another great act is the imported novelty of the Three Sanders, who introduce some marvel ous feats on the flying rings. This act was imported from Europe by MT Poli, and he has certainly justified the wisdom of his selection. Other highly entertaining acts are intro duced by Barry and Halvers, Frank Bowman, Palfrey and Hilton, Little and Pritzkow, Markley and Stuart, and Armstrong and Wright. Prices are 10 and 20 cents afternoons, ladies 10: evening prices, 10, 20 and 30 cents.
