Skatine on the Pond.

Tho cold days and nights Oflast week
nut about a three inch coat of ice on
Silver Lake. and on Friday and Satur-
dav morning the skaters were out in
force, but owing to the warm weather
on Saturday afternoon the sport was
abandoned for awhile. The cold snap
on Sunday hardened it some and many
ventured on the ice Monday until the
heat put an end to the sport.
So far no ice houses have been filled
this winter, and in a probability they
will not be filed.

POLITICAL PROSPECTS.

By selecting June q and Chicago
as the time and place for holding the
next convention the republican ma
tional committee has taken the first
step in the coming presidential cam
paign. The meeting of the committee
at the Arlington Hotel in Washing
ton. under the craftsmanship of Sena-
tor Hanna, was harmonious. All
questions brought before the body
we're settled amicably and without
dissention, and after a cordial recep-
ton by President Roosevelt and din
ner by Senator Hanna the committee
men departed, we'll justified in their
belief that republican success at the
election was assured.
Perhaps the most important result
of the committee meeting was the al
most unanimous expression of ap-
proval of the present administration
and the general assurance that Presi-
dent Roosevelt would be the choice of
llb COnNthNlOD lOE DACb paw Oh ihC
party ticket. The members of the
committee are representative party
men, they came from every state in
the union and knowing that their re-
marks would be widely published,
they attempted to describe exactly the
sentiment of the districts which they
represented. One member after another
was interviewed on the probable NOM
ination of the president, and almost
every man declared thatsin his dis
trict Mr.. Roosevelt was the first
choice. The sentiment in his favor
was so general and so positive, that
the further discussion of any other
candidate is now mere waste of time.
Mr. Roosevelt will be nominated by
reclamation, and the general realiza-
tion of this fact will do much to I'M
ify the republican party.
One small incident married the gen.
eral good feeling of the meeting OF
committeeman. A negro member OF
the committee was invited with the
others to the dinner given by Senator
Hanna. As the coIored man entered
the dining room a committeeman
from North Carolina rose and left the
room, declaring that he had come to
the meeting a gentleman and intend
ed to leave it as one. His action was
ignored as we're the statements of the
few committeeman who refused to
join in the general Endorsement OF
the president.
With a good record of party achieve
ments, their candidate practically Sc
lected, and perfect harmony among
the leaders and in the rank and file,
the chances of a republican victory
were never brighter than they are to-
dav.-

Coghlan at Colon: THE Atlantic did
not land an armed force on Colon
bian territory at any time for any
purpose. Two officials landed as us

Beupre to Colon on his way to the
United States from Bogota, on leave
of absence.

United States money. The domestic

WILL SUBJECT TREATY.

The democrats in Colgrass. that is
some of the leaders, would like tC
make some political capital out of the
Panama affair and canal treaty but il
seems as if they will be unable to dc
so. The Louisiana legislature, demo
cratic of course, has passed a resolu
ton instructing the senators from that
state to support the treaty.
Clark Howell, national committee
man from Georgia and leading figur,
in the democratic forces of the south,
has come out flatfooted in favor Of
the ratification of the treaty and the
republican policy with regard to Pan
anna. MIR. Howell says:
"The status of the Panama case be
fore the senate of the nation is ap
preaching a critical condition. Sena
tors are bound by their oaths, aud il
the absence of those guides to theil
actions which are excepted in the eau
Gus pledge, each of them will act, We
presume, upon his conscientious con
victions of what is due to his country
and his constituents.
"What was the United States to dc
in such a case, with its obligations as
to the Panama transit and neutrality
upon it? Our marines were landed to
do our duty in that one respect only.
Colon, the canal strip, and Panama
belonged in our jurisdiction for the
purposes of peace and order. And to
exercise that right to preserve them
was the only Office performed by our
forces on and near the isthmus.
Southern senators cannot escape
the certain conviction that a vote
from any one of them adverse to the
treaty will be a vote against the
urgent interests and demands of the
progressive producing and business
interests of these southern states.

The funeral of the late L. J. Alters
took place yesterday afternoon under
the direction of p Mohn Il Co., the
services benig conducted by the Ma
sons of which deceased was a mem Der.
The above undertaking firm intro
duced a new device for lowering the
body into the grave, which is quite an
improvement on the old fashioned
plan of having the pail bearers per

This new device consists of a frame
which rests on the sides and end of
the grave. Two large tape bands sim
liar to those formerly used extend
across the grave from one side to the
other of this frame. The casket is
placed on these tapes and at the prop
er time the machinery which holds
these bands, and which is concealed
in the sides of the frame is released,
and the casket is lowered automatic
ally, the mechanism being capable of
adjustment whereby it can be lowered
either slowly CT rapidly.
