MINERS FIGHT OFFICERS.
West Virginia WOrImen Defy Feder-
al and State Authorities and En-
gage in Bloody Contest.

Charleston, w. Va, Feb. ga
pitched battle in which hundreds of
men took part yesterday morning at
Stamford City, w. Va, resulted in
the death of three miners, while
scores both of miners and deputy
marshals were wounded. Seventy
three of the rioters were arrested.
The bloody battle grew out of an
attempt to arrest "a miners for VIC
lating blanket injunction issued by
Judge B. F. Keller last August.
The miners were routed after a
furious struggle, which at times was
carried on at close quarters. The
little town was thrown into a tur-
MOL of excitement and the inhabi-
tants fled in terror to the open coun-
try. The miners fought desperately
for time, but when they realized
that the battle was lost they threw
down their arms and attempted to
escape.
Both the miners and the federal
authorities as represented in the
United States marshals and their
assistants have known for several
DAYS that an armed conflict was all
but inevitable.

LIKE A LION.
Month of March Is Ushered In with
Storms, Floods and Cold
Winds.

Chicago, March 2.-March made a
ionlike entrance. Billiards ragged in
the west, floods devastated large
sections of the south and cold winds
swept all the central part of the
country, bringing arctic temperatures
and hurrying to the Atlantic
coast. The frigid wave came soon
after the recent heavy snow and
windstorms and when moderate
weather seemed to have arrived to
stay awhile.
From Pennsylvania and eastern
points come reports of high winds,
which have blown down buildings
and demoralized telegraph and tele-
phone service. There, also, heavy
rains have caused floods and already
hundreds of thousands of dollars
worth of damage has been done.

Death of "BaIdy" Smith.

Philadelphia, March 2.-Gen. Will
liam Farrar Smith, better known as
"Baldy" Smith, one of the prominent
figures of the civil war, died at his
home in this city in his eightieth
year. He entered West Point at the
age of II, and when the civil war
broke out he was made commander
of the Third Vermont regiment. He
rose rapidly and became one of the
leading figures in that struggle. Gen.
Smiths death, it is said, reduces the
number of living corps commanders
OF the civil war to four.

WISCONSIN STATE NEWS.
Lived over "a Century.

Mrs. Julia Duplice, aged 1O3 years,
died at the home of her daughter in
Chippewa Falls. Had she lived until
March % she would have been 104
years old. Mrs. Duplice was born
at ST. Rock, Canada, in 1899, and came
to Chippewa Falls in 1867, where she
has since resided. She became blind
at the age of 90 years, but her health
remained good until a few weeks ago.
Mrs. Duplice always insisted that her
remarkable age was due to the fact
that she had always refrained from
eating beef, preferring cold boiled
pork.

Indians Sell Lands.

Recent sales of lots on the Oneida
Indian reservation to white men are
arousing discussion among people in
terested in Indian affairs, the gen
eral opinion being that these sales
mark the first steps in the absorb
ton of the precincts of the red man
by white farmers. The sales were
negotiated by heirs Of the Oneidas
to whom the lands were allotted. The
heirs desire to enter lines of business
they consider more profitable than
farming.

UufamiIiarity with History.

President James, of the Northwest
ern university, says that schoolboys
study too much American history and
too little of that of the old world,
says. the Philadelphia Inquirer. Con-
sidering the great ignorance of the
average American concerning his own
country, this statement is no less than
amazing.
