A Negro swiadler Captured.

Policeman Seymour arrested a sharp
coon from Texas Monday, and Magis-
trate Wells sent him to the chain gang
yesterday for fifty days. The negro
said his name was Charlie johnson
and that he came from Manning,
Georgetown, Charleston or Texas. He
had every mark of a thoroughgoing
rascal, and if he had not been pulled
for one crime the law would probably
have got him for another before many
days. The arrest was made for swim
ding Charles Vaughn, an old negro
man. Vaughan was in town trying to
buy cheap horse or mule and had
SIS with which to make the purchase.
johnson ascertained this and proceed
ed to ingratiate himself in Vaughn s
confidence. He told Vaughn that he
could buy a horse cheaper than
Vaughn could, and persuaded him to
give up his money. Johnson, as soon
as he got the money, gave Vaughn the
slip by lodging through the back lots.
Later on be was captured by Officer
Seymour, but not before be had stolen
dollar from man who sent him to
the dispensary with.a ten dollar bill
to buy whiskey for him. Two cases
were made against him in the Magis-
trate's court and the aggregate sentence
was fifty days as stated above.

THE TAKU COMPARTMENT.
Admiral Kempf Felt Aggrieved at the
Presidents Statement

The correspondence and dispatches be-
tween the Navy Department and Rear Ad-
miral KempH during the time of the bonn
bardment of the Taku forts in China were
transmitted to the House of Representa-
tives by Secretary Moody yesterday. Most
of these dispatches were published at the
time these exciting incidents were being
enacted. In the main the course Of Ad-
miral Kempff appears to have been fully
approved by the authorities here, but In the
later correspondence the admiral calls at
tention to an injustice which, he feels, has
been done him by the account of the Taku
operations contained in the Presidents mes
paign. Secretary Moody withholds some of
the correspondence for the reason, it is
stated. that it's publication would not be in
the public interest.

MIR. DIETRICH'S BILL.
Thinks It May Be a Compromise in
the Cuban Dispute.

Senator Dietrich of Nebraska, who stands
with the beet sugar interests in opposition
to the reduction of duty on Cuba sugars as
proposed by the republican members of
the Senate committee on Cuban relations,
has introduced a bill on the subject
which he thinks will be accepted as a COM
promise measure.
1t provides that the differential on re-
fined sugar shall be abolished, but that
an equal amount shall be added to the duty
on raw sugars, and then it gives Cuba a
% per cent reduction from this increased
duty.
Senator Dietrich says that he has con-
suited the President with reference to the
terms of the bill, and that it is acceptable
to him. He also has assured himself that
it will be satisfactory to the senatorial
friends of beet sugar.

great "Witwatersrand'' gold fields of South
Africa, better known as the Johannesburg
mines. Gold was discovered there in 1888
and in 1884 the value of the gold product
was about 0,G00. 1t increased with star
Ting rapidity, the product of 1883 being
about 100000; that of 1890, $1000o, 600;
1892, over $50 900. 600; 1898, over $40, 900
and 1897 and 1898. about soo,000,0oo. Work
in these mines has been practically sus
pended during the in progress in that
section within the past two years. The
gold production of the Rand" since 1884
has been over $500. OO0, 900. and careful sur
veys of the field by experts show beyond
question that the gold in sight probably
amounts to 81, SOC, 0000 900, while the large
number of mines in adjacent territory, par
ticularly those Of Rhodesia, whose output
was valued at over S4,500,OO0 last year.
gives promise of additional supplies, so that
1t seems probable that South Africa will
for many years continue to be, as it is now
the largest gold producing section of the
world.
