President Roosevelt Again Declines to Ar
bitrate the Venezuelan Troubie-Sow
Goes to The Hague.

Washington, Feb. President
Roosevelt has declined the invitation
of the allied powers to arbitrate the
question as to whether they shall
receive preferential treatment in the
settlement of their claims against
Venezuela over the other creditor
nations. He reached this decision
shortly before four o'clock yesterday
afternoon and instructed Secretary
Hay to dispatch a note to the Brit
ISL embassy at once, advising the
British ambassador to that effect.
The matter therefore now will be
referred to The Hague tribunal. This
will result in the immediate raising
of the blockade. The administration,
it is stated in an official quarter, was
unwilling to approve the effort OF
the British government to eliminate
Minister Bowen from the negotia-
tions and, moreover, the president
could not have accepted the invita-
ton of the allies, even had he been
so disposed, without the consent OF
the other negotiator, Minister
Bowen, and this the allies did not
obtain or request in their note OF
invitation to the president.

HOUSEHOLD NOTES.

Flour thrown upo1 burning oil will
instantly extinguish it, while water
only spreads the flames.
Clean japanned trays by rubbing
them over with little olive oil. anu
then polishing it off with a soft cloth.
A dying fire may often be coaxed in
to life by scattering over the embers
teaspoonful of granulated sugar
If SCOT should fall on the carpet,
cover it with salt before attempting G
to sweep it up. 1t will then be re-
moved easily and cleanly.
Silk dresses should never be
brushed, but should be carefully
rubbed with an old piece of velvet
nept specially for that purpose.
When grease is spilled on the kitch.
en- floor pour cold water upon it at
once. This will harden it and pre-
vent its soaking into the boards.
The tender leaves and small ends
of the stalks of celery should never
be thrown away. If dried they are
found excellent for flavoring soups
When a heavy shoe or boot has
been wet, it hardens and draws so that
it hurts the foot If the shoe is put
on and the leather thoroughly wet
with kerosene, the stiffness will dis
appear and the leather be pliable,
adapting itself to the foot
To renew velvet, cover the face of
f1at-iron with a wet cloth; hold the
wrong side of the velvet next to this
cloth until thoroughly steamed, then
brush the pile with soft brush.
To powder parsley, the bunch is
dipped quickly into boiling water to
make it brilliant green; then put
it into a hot oven for a few minutes
to dry thoroughly. After this, it may
be broken into tiny flakes.
Boiled Icing-Take one cup of white
sugar, two tablespoo lfuls of water.
Boil until it strings, remove from the
fire and add the white of one egg
beaten stiff Stir all well together,
flavor, and cover the cakes when it
becomes cool.
After you have maze your rich
brown gravy for the roast, and it is
just ready to turn into the gravy-boat,
add couple of teaspoonfuls of thick,
sweet cream. 1t will tighten the
color, and, what is more, impart a
most delicious flavor

Rubino replied volubly to all interro-

herewith. The prisoner bitterly as
sailed modern society as the cause of
all evil Rubino added that he had
intended going to Italy for the pur-
pose of making an attempt on the
Italian monarch, but he did not have
sufficient funds. During the prison
er's examination it developed that
he left the Italian army because his
officers prosecuted him. The prOsecu-

cate their lines so as to straighten

amendment, which sought to render
the act imperative as to towns with
out consent of city councils of towns
affected. Mr.. Rice explained that the
word act" in the amendment was in
advisedly used, and would render the
act unconstitutional and therefore
moved to nOn-concur in the house
amendment and refer the bill to a
conference committee. This motion
prevailed. The house later receded,
and the bill goes to the governor.
The senate concurred in the house
resolution providing for the appoint

ROOT SEES TROUBLE.
Secretary of War Thinks Negro
Suffrage Has Failed.
The Best Thought and the Best Patriotism
Required to Solve the Problem Which
Faces the Country-Reconcilia-
tion of Rich and Poor.

New York, Feb. THE fortieth
anniversary of the Union League club
was celebrated at the club house
last night by a reception rendered to
the survivors of those wha joined the
club in 1868. Elihu Root, the secre-
tary of war, was the chairman of the
reception committee. Secretary
Root congratulated the veterans of
the club upon having woven a
thread into the fabric of the great
life of this country" There are" he
added, many problems coming up
to-day on which the safety of this
government depends. There are to-
day situations of possible evils for
our country that call for devoted pa
triotism. First, division between the
rich and the poor, under which
wealth controls legislation and pow
erty is trying to stir up a war Of
classes. but every good titizen should
declare that never in this free land
shall we have a war of classes.
There are some labor organizations
which fight against the better man
doing more work than the poorer
man and hold down the competent
man to the level of the incompetent
and stupid. 1 do not declare war
against labor organizations;> I be-
lieve in them. The laborer is enti-
tied to organize to get his own.
after the civil war the great ques-
tion was What shall we do with the
black man?' and the answer was
Give him citizenship, equal rights,
and he will rise Three amendments
were added to the constitution and
l fear we will have to face the con-
clusion that the experiment has
failed. The suffrage has been taken
away from the negro, and in many of
the southern states the black man no
longer has the right of suffrage
We can never throw off the response
hility that rests on our people for
the welfare of these black people
that we held in slavery for so many
generations. Now that the first at
tempt has failed, the question is
what to do, and it should take the
greatest thought of the greatest
minds of the country"

TWENIY-NINTH DAY

The house capped the climax of
anti-liquor legislation today when, by
vote of 6S to 16, it passed the STRAIT
ton bill providing a way for towns
under 5000 population to vote liquor
out without the necessity of abolish
ing their charters by amending it to
include all the cities of not over $780,
900. In effect the bill simply pro-
poses a different method of securing
the advantages contemplated by the
Adams antisaloon act, passed few
days ago. When the Stratton bill
came up, Mr.. Greer, who is opposed
to temperance legislation, offered the
100000 amendment and instead of it
being tabled, as was expected or be-
ing opposed by the temperance men,
a motion to adopt prevailed by large
majority. A motion to reconsider
was also voted down, and the bill as
amended was forced to a vote, with
the above result. Mr.. Tyson of Madi-
son county at once entered a motion
to reconsider and this motion will
come up next week. The passage of
the amended bill came like clap of
thunder in a clear sky, creating con-
sternation among the local liquor in

NEW EDITION OF MAP
Of the Helena Quadrangle, Montana,
Has Been Prepared.

Of the Helena Quadrangle, Montana,
Has Been Prepared.
A new and revised edition of the
map of the Helena quarangle, Mon
tana, has been prepared by the
United States geological survey. This
map shows the results of the latest
surveys in the most important min
eral region of Montana.
Since the map was first prepared,
Is years ago, the region has increas-
ed so much in Importance that new
surveys on larger scales have become
necessary. This demand resulted in
the making of the Butte special map
on a scale of about 1900 feet to one
inch, which has been published, to-
gether with descriptive text and geo.
logical sections, as the Butte special
folio, No 3S. Later the Boulder sheet.
which represents the southeast quar-
ter of the Helena quadrangle, was is
sued on a scale of about two miles
to one inch. Next followed special
maps about Helena and Marysville
on larger scales.
These new maps have been reduced
to a uniform scale and used as cor
rections to the old Helena map. The
changes between the old and the new
maps due to increase in population
are particularly noticeable, and show
in a graphic manner the growth OF
the country
