ON The WRONG TRAIN.
MEN HAVE UN-
PLEASANT EXPERIENCE
HERE.

Three travelling men of long exper-
ience on the road arrived in Duluth

experience they had in the morni1SA

Donald c. Barbee, G. A. Bush and

to show that even experienced travel

wrong train, says the Duluth News

''As a rule," said Mr.. Barbee of
Minneapolis. I'VE don't travel on
freight trains, but I thought I saw q
chance to make little time by taking
a freight from Little Falls to Brain
erd. Arriving at the train l spoke to
the brakeman, ana he assured me
that train was going to Brainerd. We
piled into the caboose, and were soon
joined by young soldier, . who was
also bound for Brainerd. When he
found that was going there he said
that he would follow me, as l was q
travelling man aud he would be sure
to find the way. The train backed up
and down the yards for about 40 min
utes and at last pulled out. We had
run about a mile when I asked the
conductor If he would get into Brain
erd on time.
"Brainerd, he said. 'f'We don't go
to Brainerd; we 60 to Staples. "

CITY OF COLON UNSANITARY
Its Redemption Will Be an Immense
 Task

Washington-Surgeon J. c. Perry of the public health and marine hospital service, who has been at Colon mak- ing special study for President Roosevelt of the sanitary conditions O? the Isthmus has submitted an eX- haustive preliminary report to Surgeon General Wyman. He devotes the greatest portion of the report to the city of Colon, Eut also describes the conditions at Panama and along the proposed route of the Isthmian canal. He describes the rresentj condition of Colon, as woefully unsanitary and unhealthy, and says that its redemp- tion will be an immense task, but that it should be successful. The eli mate at the camps along the route of the canal he describes as far superior to that of Colon and Panama and he says that with proper sanitary regula- tions the health of their occupants should remain good.
 Surgeon Perry says that all types of malarial fever are more frequent in Colon than in Panama. He says he believes both towns can be made healthy by the installation of good supply of water, which can be had at a distance from each place by the construction of a sewage system and the destruction of the unsanitary negro huts.

THEFT CAUSED UPRISING
TROUBLE IN SOUTHWEST AFRICA
 EXPLAINED
Administrator of Kamerun Company Tried to Arrest Head Men of Native Villages and Was Killed

Berlin-The rising of native troops in the Cross and Nsasanang rivers re- zion of German Kamerun, West Africa, resulting in several factories of the Northwest Kamerun being burned and four Germans killed, as announced in these dispatches Mon- day, was caused by the eccentric con- duct of Count von Pueckler and was directly due to the theft of lantern from the Northwest Kamerun con- pany. Herr Schoeller, president of the company, received in December last a long letter from Count von Pueckler regarding the stolen lantern, concluding with the assertion tbat he intended to make the property of white men respected by burning five villages. Herr Schoeler inferred from the violence of the language of Von Pueckler that the latter was deranged, and wrote both to the count and agents of the company commanding that nothing be done over so trivial a matter, saying that the company for the first tme was about to pay divi- idend and adding that the good will of the natives must be cultivated. Herr Schoeller's letters arrived too late. Count von Pueckler, with twenty five men, tried to arrest the head men of one of the villages, but the count was killed aud his escort with diff culty escaped. During the next few days the company's factories on the Cross river were burned down and four agents were killed. A punitive expedition has now arrived in the hostile district.
 SCount von Pueckler, it appears from information subsequently, re- ceived by Herr Schoeller, had recent ly given way to fits of fury against the negroes, attributable to the state of his health as result of his long residence in the hot climate of equa- torial Africa.

ENGLAND PLANNING NAVY
BALF0UR CITES MANY CONTIN-
 GENCIES
Possibility of War Forces Itself on Parliament Bhlians are Urged to Maintain Their Naval Supremacy

London-In the course of a discus sion of the naval estimates in the house of commons Premier Balfour, while admitting the magnitude of the estimates, said the house should not only consider the amount but should watch the general European and Asiatic situation, which alone could justify what the country was asked to expend.
 The country should not lose sight ofsthe possibility of war between Great Britian and two maritime powers, which could hardly end without great losses to both the enemy and Great Britian, in which event the other navies would be intact and in a mari time position which they did not now hold.
 Continuing MT. Balofur said he was reluctant to mention the possibility of war. He did not think such a dreadful contingency was one which they at present had any reason to ap- prehend. But when attacking the navy they must always be talking of the possibility of war and he was forced. when indicating the general outlines of the reasons which compelled the government to ask for this sacrifice, or indicate possibilities which did not exist twenty-five years ago. There was no possible comparison between the dependence Great Britian placed on her navy, which was defensive, and the dependence placed by America or any European country on Its navy, which was offensive.
 Great Britian's policy had been to see what other nations were doing in the way of laying down ships and to immediately make reply. So long as the admiralty was careful not to anticipate or force other countries in, but simply to follow sui, insur.ug that other countries did not outstrip Great Britian in the race for naval superiority, MT. Balfour believed the country would support parliament in the expenditure. The vote for the effectiveness of the navy was then agreed to.

YA0IJI INDIANS DEFEATED
Twelve of the Band Killed in the
 Fight

Guaymas, Mex.-A special dispatch to the Sonora Mail states that General Lorenzo Torres and Rafael Ysabel, Governor Of Sonora, have just return ed to San Jose de Guaymas after lead ing combined force of government and state troops against the Yaqui indians, who have been making head quarters in the Santa Ursula Noun tains.

The h. dians were defeated after decisive fight in which twelve of their number were killed. and the remainder, num- boring almost hundred, were cap tured
 The Indians had but small supply of ammunition and were compelled to resort to ther bows and arrows, or the fight might have been more interest ing. The prisoners were taken to a nearby ranch and placed under heavy guard. They will be deported to Yucatan.
 The Yaquis who killed James Fox, Cruz Barra and several men at the Fl Poso ranch are believed to Ee among the Indians captured.

 The history back of the sale is an interesting one and involves charges ot fraud against some of the principal citizens of Ventura. Suit was brought in he circuit conrt of the United States by MT.

He claims to have advanced large sums of money to the syndicate, for which he de- mands just compensation.
 Immediately upon filing the suit a number of attachments were filed upon the land, chief among which was that of George c. Power for back salary due him as manager of the syndicate. The defendants in the case deny in toto the charges of the complainant and state that the purchasers were fully and fairly appraised of the value of the ranch. Bad faith on the part

Caracas-The decision of the Hague arbitration tribunal that the three powers which Iblockaded Venezuela Great Britian, Germany and Italy have the Fright to preference of 3e per cent of the customs duties at La Guayra and Puerto Cabello, has caused surprise in Lthis city. The general opinion here is voiced by a high official as follows:
 "'The value sof future decisions handed down by the arbitration tri- buDal is destroyed, because in this finding the tribunal has consecrated the triumph of might over right.
 In an interview with the Associated Press Minister Bowen said
 "The tribunal was called upon to establish a new principle in inter national law, namely, that all cred itor nations should be treated with equal consideration-tha preferential treatment should not be obtained by blockading and bonn mbardments. The tribunal refused to establish this principle and other principles now recognized as sound by international law were also at first rejected. We must, therefore, have patience. :"
