smelters is not far distant.
According to information Heinze

with the exception of small interest.
and he will act as the Amalagmated
Copper company's s manager for all its
mines and smelters.
The price paid by the Amalgamated
company or the price it is to pay could
not be ascertained.
President William Scallon of the
Anaconda company and representative
of the Amalgamated refused either to
affirm or deny the report, declaring
that such thing was possib BILE, though
if settlement had been effected with
Heinze by the Amalgamated officials
in Nav York he was not aware of it.

Mrs. Benjamin Dustin Victim of
Bold Daylight Robbery.

A bold daylight robbery was COM.
mitted at 7:30 Sunday morning, and
Mrs. Benjamin Dustin, Of 22s North
Chandler street. was relieved of $40 in
bills. The robbery was committed by
a slender black negro. who seized Mrs.
Dustin just as she came out of her coal

the bosom of her dress and snatched
the roll of money which was pinned
inside.
Mrs. Dustin's husband had gone to
visit relatives in st. Joseph, Mo. He
left Saturday, leaving Mrs. Dustin
alone. Saturday night a lady who lives
next door STAYED with her, and when
they arose Sunday morning the neigh
Dor went home to get breakfast. Mrs
Dustin had rlaced the money beneath
her pillow the night before, and when
she dressed pinned it inside her wrap
per. 1t is thought by the police that
the negro had approached the house
knowing that her husband was gone
for the purpose of robbery, and had
been standing outside the window when
she dressed and saw her place the roll
of bills inside her dress
Shortly after the neighbor left the
house Mrs. Dustin went out to the coal
house. When she came out with the
coal, she set it down to lock the door.

through a little gate leading into tbf,

tore the garment open, snatched the roll
and ran. Mrs. Dustin screamed and at

District Attorney Dean to get Judge W.

Topeka the trial of the seven remaining
federal penitentiary mutineers who are
under Indictment on the charge of muir
dering Guard Waldrupe. The November
term opens on November q. The govern
ment attorneys are anxious to dispose OF
the trial as soon possible and it is not
anticipated that Judge Hook will demur
against setting it for the coming Topeka
term.
Unless Judge Hooks successor is ap-
pointed before that time Judge Riner, who
presided at the trial of the five mutineers
who We're convicted at Leavenworth last
week, will preside at the Topeka term.
Much the same evidence that was brought
out in the trial of the first five will be
used against the seven who are still to be
tried.
Ten men are included in the remaining
Indictment, but two were never re-
captured, while third is dead, having
been killed while making effort to es-
cape from the Leavenworth penitentiary.

started the mutiny, is among the seven

Latest Demand of Colombia in
Panama Canal Deal.

New York, Oct. 19.-Ismael Enrique
Aroiniegas of the Colombian diplomatic
service has arrived in this city on his
way to Washington with special dis
patches containing Instructions for DR..
Thomas Herran. the Colombian minis
ter, concerning the Panama canal
treaty. He also is the bearer of the text
of the amendments to the treaty made
by the senate of Colombia and President
Marroquin.
The only condition on which the
Colombian government is now prepared
to conclude the pending treaty, he said,
is the payment of $25.000.000 by the
United States for the advantages it
would receive and an agreement to let
the territory remain as a part of Coiom-
bia.

ed States" he said. I'm fact, everybody
understands that it would be some ma
terial benefit to US and that the rela-
tons into which it would bring US with
such a great country as the United
States would be of great use to smati
country, such as our. The people want
it, have wanted it for long time, and
know that they will get it some Gay.
| However, there is a pretty general
| feeling that the United States will gain
a great deal more out of this canal than
we, not only in the long run but from
the very start, so it is urged that wits
we should not exactly drive a sharp
bargain, we should look out for our own
interests You can't blame anybody for
doing that.
SHOULD the United States refuse to
accept our terms. we shall simply wait
until she gets ready. We should gain
by waiting, since she is at the present
! time willing to pay the French company
something like $40. 000, 900 for their fran
chise That expires in six years, ana

we should not consider the offers or any
other country to build the canal, since
we feel that the United States is about
the only one which would stick to It's
treaty after it made one
Washington, Oct. 19.-Minister Beau
pre-, at Bogota. has informed the state
department that the Colombian govern
ment is still considering the canal ques-
tion that the committee having the mat
ter in charge has submitted a report
upon the concession to the Panama
Canal company from 1904 to 1910. The
dispatch is ambiguous and the depart
ment cannot say whether the committee
has recommended the invalidation of the
concession and a return to the company
of 81 900, 600, which was paid for it or
whether it favors confirming their con-
cession. The report is to be printed and
discussed in the Colombian congress
next week The Colombian government
ha wing intimated that it desired to re-
new negotiations for the construction of
a canal this government will not act
until it has been determined that II rea-
sonable time has been given the govern
ment at BOgota to formulate and pre-
sent a proposition.

Kept the Secret.

A well known uptown man, a lover
of fine horsefiesh. saw fine buggy
horse which he thought he wanted He
located the owner and asked the price
'sOne hundred dollars was the reply.
After looking the animal over and trying
her speed he concluded it was good
trade. and wrote out a check for the
amount The next day he found that
the mare was blind. but this did not
hinder her speed or detract from her
general appearance. He drove the ami
NAL for several weeks and succeeded in
attracting the attention of another lover
of horses, who made proposal to buy.
ssWen,,' said the owner, Il gave 800
for her, but I'll let you have her for
S125 if you want to buy"
After looking her over and taking a
short ride behind her the man decided
to buy. He paid over the money and
took the mare When the animal was
embarrassed the first thing she did was
to run against post: then, by way of
emphasizing the fact that she was blind
she fell over a barrel. The next day the
buyer came back with blood in his eye.
Say, you know that mare you sold
me?n he began We'll, she's stone
blind
I know it," replied her past owner,
with an easy air.

impressed him on the Pacific coast:
1.-The bad manners of your business
men,
Being pressed for a more definite
statement of the charge, he said:
From Los Angeles to Seattle I have

we should regard as insulting. There is
a brusqueness in meeting a man who
comes with the best of bank references
that fairly staggered me until 1 became
hardened to it, OF course, realize that
a large number of swindlers infest a
new country such as this, but isn't it
rather a mistake to assume that every
man is a scoundrel and to treat him as
such?"
Is there not much truth in these re-
marks? Every honest man rather likes
the blunt traightforwardness of the
west, but there is by no means so uni
versaI an admiration of our badly con-
cealed distrust of the stranger.

PANIC ON STEAMER.
Ferryboats, With Thousands on
Board, Crashed Together.

San Francisco, Oct. 19.-Endanger-

steamer Oakland in the middle of the
bay during a dense fog. The Newark
struck the Oakland aft the paddle box.

ly not damaging her machinery.
The Newark came out of the wreck
with her rails carried away at the
bows. The deck near the apron was
cut deeply by the Oakland's side.
Owing to the dense fog on the bay
the boats were doing double service,
the crowd on each steamer being dou-
BILE in consequence.
On the Oakland the excitement was
greater than on the Newark. The force
of the blow was such that the boat
listed at least twenty degrees. After
this lunge to starboard the Oakland re
covered but rolled to port when the
Newark backed her engines and got
clear. AS the Oakland rocked on the
water after the crash the crowd on the
lower and upper decks rushed back and
forth in a fury of fright Women fell in
the injured steamer. On the upper deck
several women rushed to the rail to leap

men. Racks containing cork jackets

On the Newark the passengers were
more easily restrained. that vessel not
feeling the force of the collision as
much as the Oakland.
Fortunately, in the crisis the Officers
of the steamers remained cool. While
the captains and pilots stood at their
posts in the warehouses and extricated
the boats from their position, the mates
and deckhands, with presence OF mind,
went about urging and persuading the
crowd that there was no real danger. II
was found to. be almost impossible to
restrain the more excited persons, who
let their fears run away with them
During the half hour that followed the
crew had to stand ready, fearing that
any moment some foolish passenger
might try to leap into the water. But,
despite the black fog, so dense the
pilots could scarcely see the f1agpoles
both boats finally reached the slips Oh

SPOILED CHILDREN

The Spoiled" child usually makes
weak, sicl1ly man or woman because
such youngster has its own way

coffee because I would cry for it," says

my going to school so they took me out
again. But I did not get any better
and my headaches got worse and weak
ened me SO that I was unfit for any
duty. Sometimes I would go a whole
day without any other nourishment
than a cup of coffee.
Last spring had bad attack of
the Grippe and when I recovered I
found that coffee nauseated me so 1
could not drink it and even a few
swallows would cause a terrible burn
ing in my stomach. 1t was at this
time that friend who had been much
benefited by the use of Postum sug-
gested that I try this food drink I
found it simply delicious and have used
it ever since and the results speak for
/ themselves. I have gained II pounds
and my nerves are as steady as any
ones.
Il consider myself well and strong
and I make it a point now to take a
cup of Postum with cracker or two

Il have a young girl friend, a stenog-
rapher, who declares nothing strength

CHANUTES LAST PLAN.
Makes School District Which
Includes All C0lored Pupils.

Chanute, Kan. Oct 19.-The school
board here has rescinded its action in
regard to separate schools for colored
pupils. The board met and moved the
action taken last July to separate the
white and black scholars be rescinded,
and then directed and ordered Super1n-
tendent Royster to draw such boundary
lines as he decided necessary to separate
children of different buildings and to
make such assignments of children TO
buildings as he considered to be to the
best interests of the schools. 1t further
ordered that no child now enrolled shall
be allowed to transfer from one building
to another without special permit from
the superintendent.
A careful study of the order will show
that the territory specified includes all
the colored families in town with but
one or two exceptions. Those outside
will probably be sent to the First ward
building on assignment.
