FLED FROM Home
Crown Princess Of Saxony Sudden.
ly Disappeared
ON NIGHT OF DECEMBER II
From Emperor Joseph's castIe-Dum-
my Placed In Her Bed-suicide and
Elopement Theories Don't Hold-All
Search Has Proved Fruitless.

Dresden, Saxony, Dec. 2S.-The
srown princess of Saxony fed from
her home on the night of Dec. IL. The
Dresdener Journal Monday said: "The
princess, in state Of intense mental
excitement, suddenly deserted her
family at Salzburg and went abroad
The Saxon court functions for the win
ter, including the New Years recep-
ton, have been cancelled"
The foregoing paragraph in the Of
fetal journal, which was inserted by
order of the king and crown prince Of
Saxony, has turned into truth what
for several days past HAS been regard
ed as an incredible tale.
Accompanied by the crown prince,
the princess went to the castle of EN-
peror Francis Joseph, near Salzburg, a
month ago. A week after their arrival
at the castle the prince broke his leg
while hunting and was brought back
to Dresden. The princess, however,
remained at the castle. :.
The narrative of the events from
Salzburg during the nights of Dec. IL
-, as told in Dresden, is that the
princess, who appeared to be IN an
unusually tranquil mood, retired be-
fore y o'clock. Three hours late,
when a maid looked into the royal
bedchamber, something in the appear
ance of the bed prompted her to go
closer and examine it. Instead OF the
princess the maid perceived dummy
figure. She awakened the lady-in-wait-
ing and the latter, with other members
of the princess suite, searched all the
neighboring apartments, then the en-
tire castle, and finally the grounds of
the castle for the princess, but no
trace of the missing woman was
found.
At dawn the police of Salzburg were
informed of the case and inquiries
were made throughout the whole coun-
tryside, but with no tangible result.
The inquiry by the end OF that day
had extended to all parts OF the king
do moi Saxony, and on authority from
Dresden, by the end Of the second day,
to all of Europe. The theory OF sui
eide was suggested and fruitless
search for the princess body has been
made.
The disappearance Of the princess
doubtless will cause the circulation OF
many stories. 1t is already related
that she eloped, but inquiries haue
here have brought out nothing to SUB
stantiate or support their statement.

Will Not Survey Pass.

A rumor has been set afioat in
Montana to the effect that the general
land office intended in the near future
to have surveys made on the railroad
grants in Lolo pass, Montana, affect
ing the timber land located at cut
off from Missoula westward through
Lolo pass, writes the Washington cor
respondent of the Salt Lake Tribune.
Your correspondent today called upon
the commissioner OF the general land
Office regarding the matter, and was
informed by that official that no such
surveys had been made and that to
his knowledge no surveys of the kind
in this vicinity were contemplated in
the near future. He stated that a
number of surveys had already been
made in certain sections of Montana,
but that he knew of none affecting
any land in the vicinity Of Lolo pass.

DEATH BY ARSENIC.
The Way This Poison Acts Upon the
Human system.

When a single dose of arsenic in suf-
ficient quantity to be felt has been tax
en-, cOlicky pains, bowel disorder and
perhaps nausea result In the course
of an hour after a poisonous dose has
been taken an intense burning pain Is
felt in the esophagus and stomach.
This spreads to the entire anterior por-
ton Of the lower part of the trunk. A
sense of construction at the throat and
an acrid, metallic taste accompany the
pain. Then vomiting and relaxation of
the bowels begin. AS the case pro-
crosses the symptoms increase in in
tensity Then comes a thirst that wa
ter will not allay, although it appar-
emily increases the stomach disturb
ance. The victim groans and writhes.
Now he implores the doctor to save
him. Then he begs to be killed and put
out of pain. The extremities become
| icy. The pulse Is small, feeble and fire.
| Quent, and the breathing is labored,
embarrassed and painful because Of
abdominal tenderness. The surface of
the body becomes dark and Of that
| blush color that medical men call cy-
anosed. Violent cramps add their tor
ture, exhaustion becomes collapse, con-
vulsions or coma ensues, and death
ends the agony. This torture lasts
sometimes from five to twenty hours.
In some cases these symptoms occur,
but in a modified form, and the doctor
will apparently get the better Of the
disease. The remission will be but for
a day or two. Then the abdomen will
swell, and icy coldness will pervade
the frame. Shivering will become pro-
nounced trembling, then cramps, con-
vulsions and death.

Some New LAWS.

Washington, March 1.-THE house
caucus on judiciary decided to report
on two bills, namely, for the suppress
sion of train robberies and to define
"oonspiracies" so as to limit the is
suance of injunctions in labor contro-
versies.
The train rabbery bill was amended
so that any person who obstructs, de-
rails or commits an assault upon any
railroad train or it's passengers, with
intent to commit robbery, murder or
any other crime, shall be punishable
with death, if the death of any per-
son on the train is effected, and with
imprisonment for from five to ten
years if death is not effected
The injunction bill provides that
no agreement between persons to dc
any act in furtherance of any dispute
between employers and employees
shall be deemed criminal, nor shall
said persons be indictable for con
spiracy, nor shall such an agreement
be considered in restraint of trade
nor shall any restraining orders OF
injunction be issued in relation
thereto.

"The Horse Fair"
Possibly a Japanese Loan.

The government of the United
States is not in the money loaning
business, but when it has more gold
in it's treasury vaults than there is
in banks whose solvency is
use for it's deposits a part of the
AS a repayment of this
SO deposited is secured, the
government need not concern itself
witt the use that may be made of
the deposit. In this way some of the
gold now lying idle in San Francisco
and other government repositories
may be transferred to Japan. 1t is
known that the little oriental empire
has been for some months in the mar
ket for a loan at rates of interest
which exceed those paid by the four
or five nations of the first rank.
An American syndicate, therefore,
which finances the Japanese loan will
make a good investment. Japan's
present debt is given at 500, JOB,
a small liability compared to those OF
European nations of no greater nat
ural resources. The ability to nego-
tiate a loan of such magnitude, and
at fair rates of interest, will improve
Japans financial standing among Eu-
ropean nations. Before the Boer war
Great Britain would have been given
an opportunity to supply the financial
needs of her ally, but as Great Brit
ain is now borrowing money on her
own account, the investment was
passed over to the other side of the
Atlantic
While the loan may be considered a
safe investment for the syndicate,
the making of it tends to give
strength to the belief that the United
States in it's Asiatic policy is acting
in accord with Great Britain and ia
pan. AS the man with money
places the man who wants to borrow
money under sort of obligation, ma
tions that regard the transaction
from an impartial point of view will
consider this loan as friendly rather
than a business proposition.
Other nations whose interests are
opposed to the purposes of the Anglo
Japanese alliance will see in the loan
desire to strengthen that alliance.
Russia, for example, is under heavy
expenses in the prosecution of her
extensive system of internal improve
ments, and consequently can always
make profitable use of ready money,
and would without doubt consider a
loan as an expression of national
good feeling for the combination
formed to defeat it's Asiatic policy.
The American government can, how
ever, be held responsible for the loan
only as it has afforded the syndicate
facilities for making it.

PERPETUAL INJUNCTION.
What the Government Demands in
the Merger Suit.

st. Paul, March 1.-THE govern
ments attack upon the $400, 100000
Northern Securities company, as rep
resenting the merger of the Northern
Pacific and Great Northern railways,
was begun yesterday by bill for in
junction filed here in the circuit court
of the United States.
The suit is instituted in the name
of the United States and against the
Northern Securities company, the
merged railroads of ]. Pierpont Nor
gan, James J. Hill and all the direc-
tors, officers and stockholders of the
three companies involved, and seeks
perpetually to restrain them from car
rying out the purpose of the New
Jersey corporation.
The suit is brought in accordance
with the provisions of the Sherman
antitrust act passed July 2, 1890,
which it is said to violate, and it is
sought to nave the merger of the
northern roads declared an unlawful
combination and conspiracy in re
straint of trade.
The petition in the case is signed
by Milton D. Purdy, district attorney
for Minnesota, and by Philander G.
Knox, attorney general, and John K
Richards, solicitor general of the
United States.

The Coal Fields.

The twenty-second annual report OF
the United States geological survey,
which discusses briefly the distribu-
tion, development, production and ma
ton, development, production and mar
kets of the coal fields of the country
has been issued. 1t gives interesting
facts concerning the area and charac-
ter OF the coal bearing sections of the
United States and treats of the quail
ity of the product secured. The coal
area of the country is said to be
2S0,397 square miles, exclusive of
of Alaska and of the fields of Ignite
coal which does not correspond in
quality with the bituminous and an
thracite which forms the output of
the most productive fields. The coal
fields of Montana are of the Ignite
variety. In the states of Montana
the Dakotas and Wyoming, the
coal fields comprise $4,000 square
miles and an area of equal extent
forms belt running through the
states of Georgia, Arkansas, Missis-
sippi, Louisiana and Texas.
| vi Iue euIlTS region, exclusive VI
this Ignite belt, about 55 per cent is
productive. The state having the
largest coal area does not rank first
in production. The total production
for the United States is 241 100000
tons while the output of Pennsyl-
vania alone, ranking seventh in coal
area, is 132,000,000 tons.
The Introductory part of the an
nual report of the survey is written
by DR.. Charles Willard Hayes, an
eminent geologist, who discusses the
markets at which the coal produced
in the United States is sold. He is
of the opinion that the increase in
trade from the Appalachian field dur
ing the past few years, indicates a
growing demand in the western part
of the country which must in time
operate to develop the Ignite field
and benefit the coal industry of the
west

Canaries, like human beings, vary
very much in character, some cocks, be-

Others, again, are perfect gentlemen in
their manners. waiting on the hen with
a quiet courtesy and seeing that all she

way, attending to their young ones
with regularity, while others are in a
constant state Of chatter with their

when speaking in whispers On, this
fact a method of treatment has been
advocated, which is as follows; For the

This will allow rest to the voice and
constitutes the preliminary stage Of
treatment. During the next ten days
speaking is permissible in the whisper

MENDING BAG BASKET.

Ready For Every Need and COnven-
lent to Carry liz a Trunk.
Let the mending bag basket be ready
for every need. Let there be plenty of
tapes. The selvage edge of tape is more
easily applied over rent than strip
of muslin that must be folded in; the
tape is fiat, less noticeable and irons
well. Overlay a worn seam with mar
row tape.
If the placket of petticoat or night
gown inclines to tear apart, rip it open,
darn or stay with crosspiece of tape,
then face the placket with wide tape,
an all around facing that will never
tear crosswise.
Colored tapes, black tapes of differ
ent widths for skirt strings or loops
for hanging garments, white tapes,
linen and cotton, broad and narrow
let there be generous supply.
Colored spool cottons should be in
variety to repair colored garments or
the useful numbers and at least one
spool of black linen and one of black
silk should be assured.
Darning cottons should be in care
fully selected harmony with the colors
of the stockings of the family.
Darning flosses for silk stockings and
assorted spools may have bag to

Friends Are Tlmid.

1t is very probable that there will
be no further attempt on the part of
the friends of H. H. Matteson, the de-
faulting cashier of the old First Ma,
tional bank, to secure local bonds,
men, and he will remain in the Lewis
and Clarke county Jail until his case
is heard and disposed of in the fed,
eral court, which will be some time
early in April.
In the city there are those who
would be willing to sign the bond SO
far as believing that Matteson would
not attempt to run away. They are,
at the same time. perfectly satisfied
with the indemnifying bond furn-
ished by Mr.. Dickerman of Minneap,
oils, but there are other reasons why
they defer signing, and this beins the
case, without any official statement
from those having the matter in
charge. it is said all attempts to
secure the bond have ceased.-Great
