wildwood invaded BY Officers

A special dispatch to the Baltimore
American from Hyattsville on Monday
says:
Constable Rufus H. Vincent and Depu-
ties George N. Stonnell and A. H. Dahler
had an exciting experience yesterday
afternoon when they went to investigate
rumors that the Sunday liquor law was
being violated at Wildwood, near the Dis
trict of Columbia line, Prince Georges
county. The Off :er and his deputies had
no difficulty in effecting an entrance in
to Wildwood.
As Constable Vincent was about to ar
rest man named Kennedy, who is said
to be the manager for the woman pro-
prietor of the place, his deputies were at
outside. Knowing that his deputies were
outnumbered about three to one, the Of
ficer started to 60 to their assistance, and
found that the doors of the place had
been bolted. He forced door open, and
as he stepped outside was attacked by a
man named Pierce, said to reside in
Montgomery county, whom he promptly
knocked down. and was in the act of
placing the nippers on him when another
patron of the place struck him stunning
blow in the face, causing the blood to
flow copiously.
One of the deputies struck man nam
ed Brown on the head with stone,
knocking him senseless. Brown soon
regained consciousness and renewed the
attack, and Vincent was compelled to
draw his pistol. His display Of bravery
had the effect of putting stop to the row.
1t is stated that the whole trouble start
ed when pet names were applied to one
of the deputies by patron of the place
on account of his political affiliations.
The officer placed Pierce under arrest and
brought him to the Hyattsville lookup.
A half dozen warrents will be issued, and
Officer Vincent declares that he will
bring everyone of the parties concerned
in the row to justice.

The Prince Georges county republican
Monday and was called to order by
Richard n Ryon, chairman OF the state
Central Committee for this county.
Henry W. Clagett, of Mellwood district,
mons, of Hyattsvile district, was chosen
secretary. Fourteen out of sixteen dis
tricts we're represented, and as there were
no contests the committee on credentials

primaries last Saturday.

in set of resolutions which heartily en-
dorsed the Republican administration, and
declared in favor of the nomination OF
Theodore Roosevelt for President; in
dorsed the action of the Maryland Repub-
licans in Congress; condemned the action
of the Democratic legislature at Annapo-
lis for passing the "noxious and nefarious
election and registration legislation;" in
dorsed the action of the late Senator
Hanna in selecting Col. William F. Stone,
Of Baltimore, to be sergeant-at arms of
the national convention.
A resolution was passed to the effect
that in the future no Republican from
Prince Georges county should be ap-
pointed to any office of trust or profit un-
der the Federal government without hav-
ing the Endorsement of the maj ority OF the
State Central Committee for this county.
A resolution was also adopted expressing
sympathy with Senator McComas in his
recent bereavement.

THE CURRENT WAR NEWS.

Readers of the daily pS Hers cannot
be sure of their war news until it has
been officially confirmed Too many
things defect the needle from the pcle
First IS the desire of the partisans on
18th sides to minimize th>ir losses and
magnify their triumphs; second Is the
habit of sending out misleading iele-
grams to deceive the enemy. as Tor
instance, the cabIed statement of Baron
Hayashi that it may be months before
Japan will ATTACK the Russian strong
holds in Manchuria; third the careless
ness of correspondents, who send out
runors for news; fourth, the vagaries
of the censorship. One has but TO lo"E
back on the files Of loral newspapers to
recognize the fact that the wire has
brought vast amount Of nisinforma-
.stion.
In forecasting future events, there
fore, the average reader needs to de-
pend mainly on his knowledge of his
tory and geography and upon his COM
mon sense. It should be clear to silti'
that Japan must take every advantage
of RUSSIA III preparedness or put her.

Russia pours men and supplies into
Manchuria, but must strike quick, hard
blows to maintain her own position
she needs to isolate Port Arthur, Dalny
- !. WI, 57;x4oe+olx and EJar-
bin as soon as possible and send
columns up-couptry to destroy the rail
road bridges. Strategy is nothing but
common sense applied to warfare and
the Japanese have too much of it to
permit them to lie by Iistlessly while
Russia strengthens her position in
Manchuria and overcomes the adyan-
fage which their own numerical supe-
riority and nearby food resources give
them now.
An inference may be drawn from
these facts, from Baron Hayashi's |
statement and from the tnrottling cen
sorship on news from Japan that some |
great military movement is impending. |
Japan's mobilization was fairly COM |
pleted three weeks ago, her transports |
are in hand, her commander-in-ehief |
has been named, her warships have |
cleared the sea routes, the Russians are |
SO demoralized that they are clamoring |
for recruits to defend Port Arthur.
Now is the time to strike. not when
Russia succeeds in putting half mill
lion men south of the palisades.

TOBACCO AND SMALL FARMERS.

The growing interest in tobacco Gull
ture is one of the signs of the times
which point to the success of the small
farmer Tobacco. which does well in
Connecticut, Virginia, Cuba, Porto
Rico, Mexico. the Philippines and Su-
matra ought not to be an impracti-
cable crop in the fertile soil of Hawaii.
That it has not done we'll heretofore
is supposed to be due to a hit or miss
plan of planting, cultivation and cur
ing. There are as many wrinkles
in the tobacco business as there are
in the sugar business and experience
and expert knowledge are needed to
smooth them out in both.
1t would be a fine thing for Hawaii
to make a good cigar The trade of
the West would welcome it eagerly
as a semf-foreign brand and there
would be no trouble in marketing all
we could make Besides, the tens of
thousands of dollars now sent away
for tobacco would be mostly keEt at

A BLACK SEA CRISIS.

The treaty of Berlin binds Turkey to
forbid the passage of the DardanelIes
to Russia's naval force in the Black
Sea. The signatory powers besides
Russia and Turkey, comprise the lead
ing States of Europe and the treaty
of a century. In the main the terms
of the instrument have been observed,
though Russia has kept more ships in
the Black Sea than she had the right to
DO and has occasionally sent a volun-
teer cruiser or torpedo boat from there
into the Mediterranean with the Porte's
assent and without protest from the
other powers.
y Now she desires to draw heavily upon
the Black Sea fleet for the reinforce
raaent of her Far Eastern squadron.
Great Britain, which is strongly sym
pathetic with Japan as behooyes a
power which would like to head eff the
Russian advance towards India, does
not propose, whatever the other sigma
tory powers may do, to permit the as
sage. Turkey, a power easily bribed.
shows signs of yielding. IF the signs
become too pronounced, British feet
may be expected to appear off the
shores of Greece, ready to take hand
in the practical enforcement of the
treaty.
What would France, Italy and Ger
many then do? Upon that question
hang momentous issues.

New Table Glass.

Never was an ambitious hostess
who did not succumb to the charms
of dainty glassware, let those who
will try to harden their hearts against
the beautiful fluted specimens of
crystal that stand erect on the dining
tables of the leading P%arisiennes.
With some sets Of wine glasses the
top edge of each cup opens out into
no less than eight little flutes; but
far beautiful are the cups
that are fashioned with only four. SO
that the impress of the top Of one
on paper would be something like q
f~Our-leayed shamrock.
The glasses are, of course, of the
finest crystal, and take for ornament
raised bands of rich gold, which give
wonderful dignity. Touches of the ex-
quisite French enamels come on some
of the glasses as the blossom of q
delicate spray Of flowers traced in
gold, or, on the more ornate cups OF
crystal, among the intricacies OF
monograms.

FAIR EXHIBITS.
South Dakota Articles Returned to the
State.

State.
South Dakota is disposing of it's ex-
position property and the articles on
exhibition. Most Of the latter will be
sent back to the state.
Corn hall, the state building of
South Dakota, has been sold for $500.
The furniture was disposed of for
$500 more. The original cost of the
structure, with it's decorations, fittings
and furniture, was $4,000.
The Historical society of the Sun
shine State will be enriched with near
ly all of the South Dakota exhibits. A
part of the agricultural and horticul-
tural exhibit was sold and some of it
will go to owners and exhibitors, but
the Historical society will get the re-
m%ainder, together with the education
al display and a large part of the min
ing exhibit.
Supt. Pitcher of the mining exhibit
has proved a benefactor to the school
of mines and colleges, having given
buttons in over a dozen states. He has
also sold large quantities of gold
quartz from the Black Hills to be used
in assaying tests.
The mining exhibit Of South Dakota
will go to the school of mines, and the
horticultural and agricultural displays
will become the property of the state
school of agriculture unless it is de-
cided to show them at the Lewis and

Court Decision Gives Rapid City An
other Railroad.
Not in years have Rapid City citi
zens felt SO good over a court deci
sion as the one just given by the SUI
preme court at Pierre in the case oil
c. d. CROUCH against the Wyoming
Dakota & Missouri River Railway
company. A year ago last October
Mr.. Crouch of Akron, Ohio, who was
n of the principal contractors en-
gagged in the building of about forty
miles of road between Rapid City and
Mystic, obtained a lien against the
company for money due him. Later
he purchased other liens and fore.
closed on the property. In the cir.
cult court the sale of the lines was
sustained and an appeal was made by
w. T. Coad, the promoter Of the rail.
way scheme. The supreme court sus.
tains the purchase of the liens and
MI. Crouch and his friends obtained
absolute title to the property.
r. W. Day Of Chicago, a relative of
MI. Crouch, has been organizing at.
fairs along the line for a year. Last
summer he developed extensively a
placer mine near Silver City. A strong
company was organized to exploit L.
200 acres of ground in that district.
The principal town on the Mystic end
Of the road will be Silver City. At
that place there are a good many we'll
developed mines, which have only
needed a railroad to get their ores to
market. Early in the spring the Day
company will install the most COM
plete hydraulic machinery for placer
mining in the Black Hills. In a drift
in this placer mine a pay streak ff-
teen feet wide al cut through, which
averaged IS and $40 a yard.
Work is to be resumed on this line
within fifteen days. A portion Of the
road bed has been graded and several
miles of rails laid. To Rapid City it
means the starting up again of the
smelter and the opening of thirty or
forty miles of excellent mining coun-
try which will be contiguous to that
place. The Burlington Railway COM
pany has made a four-year freight
contract with the new company and
freight will be brought directly from
Mystic to Rapid City over the new
road. Money has already been raised,
according to Mr.. Day, for the compile
ton of the road, and by July l the
first train will be put IN the line.
Electricity will be generated at Silver
City at a general plant which will
furnish lights and power for the differ
ent mining companies in that district.
For fifteen years Rapid City has had
a dream of this road, and at last there
is good reason to expect it will be
completed.

Then there was a short pause of
spiritual sensitiveness which was
broken by the opening of a door, and
all eyes turning towards it beheld
