Horses Duel.

Cheyenne, Wyo., April S.-Two valua-
BILE Percheron stations, imported from
England, fought duel to the death on
fast stock train on the Union Pacific.
Two keepers had to climb outside to es.
cape the hoofs and teeth of the infuriat-
ed animals. When they succeeded in
apprising the trainmen of the battle a
sidetrack was reached and every effort
was made to separate the animals, but
finally one severed the jugular OF its
rival, which bled to death. The car was
smashed to splinters.

Silver Penci1ed WyandOttes.

While this breed of fowls is by no
means new it is only recently that it
has attracted the attention of the gen
eral public who are interested in poul-
try. The illustration shows a pullet Of
the breed and shows well the form Of
the bird. The hens Of this breed are
good layers. docile. bear confinement
well and are good mothers. While it
would be unfair to say that the breed
could be ranked with the Leghorns as
layers. they are crowding them closely,
and by judicious selection may before
long reach the Leghorn standard. AS

OPPOSITION CROPPING OUT.
As Shown by Debate in the Senate on the
Chinese Exclusion Bill.

Washington, April THE debate has
progressed far enough on the Chinese
exclusion bill to show difference OF
opinion on both sides of the senate. Op.
position is developing to considerable
extent, and it is we'll known that the
Canadian Pacific and all its connecting
lines in the United States are exercising
every influence possible to defeat the
present measure and to secure the adop-
ton of the Geary law.
The opposition that is shown to the
law in some New England states may be
accounted for to certain extent by
these influences, especially where the
labor organizations are not strong in
politics. Notwithstanding the opposi-
ton that has developed. it seems certain
that the bill will not be amended, and
that it will pass the senate.

WALES TO BE INVITED.
New York Chamber Of Commerce Wants Him to
Come as Its Guest.

New York, April 7.-There is the
highest authority for the statement that
the Chamber of Commerce of New York
will invite the Prince of Wales to attend
the dedication of its new home in August
or September. Negotiations of semi

the last two months, but nothing def
mite will be known till May or June. AS
matter of fact, no formal invitation has
yet been sent to the Prince of Wales, in
spite of the statements to the contrary,
but it is not too mach to say that such
an invitation will be forwarded, with
every prospect of its acceptance.

A REGULAR STORY.
Said in Washington Boundary Monuments Arr
DESTROYED About Once a Year.

OCSUOySu fUOut OHtC ICots
Washington, April 5.-Relative to the
reported attempt of the Canadian sur
veyors to change surreptitiously one Of
the markers on the Canadian-Alaskan
boundary to the disadvantage of the
United States, it is learned that the
matter is one which engages the atten-
ton of the authorities here at least once
a year.
Some miner coming in with story Of
the discovery of true Russian boundary
mark, the officials Immediately direct an
investigation. A surveyor goes out with
his instruments and camp and comes
back disguised, since in course OF years
the mythical Russian boundary stones
never have been found.
The last report OF the kind led to one
of the routine Investigations, the report
coming from the coast survey through
the Treasury Department to the War
and Navy Departments, which detailed
expert officers and their inquiry is still
in progress.
