A Burning Question.


The tendency toward ''longevit}"
which seems to Show up with each
successive winter, along with thead
vance in price of wood will result
in the experiment this.winter, by
Just few town and county people,
of testing the relative merits of
coal as compared with wood in a
wooden" country. Its cost at
Barlow, the expense of hauling,
how long will how much last-these
are points TO be settled, and there is
no surer way than by actual ex-
pertinent. One point in It's favor: 1t
needs no chopping.

DOZEN NEGROES DEAD.
M ,b in Arkansas Add Two More to th>
List They Have Executed the
Past Few DAYS.

Little Rock, Ark, March ga spe-
cha tc the Gazette from Dewitt, Ark,
says:
Two more negroes nave been killed
IN the clash between whites and blacks
at st. Charles, fifteen miles from mere
in Arkansas county. This brings the
total OF dead negroes up to thirteen, all
OF them being killed within the past
week.
The last two negroes killed were the
Griffin brothers, Henry and Walker,
who We're the cause of the trouble. The
negroes were reported to have escaped,
but it is known that they are dead, and
1t is believed they We're killed yester-
day.
Owing to the remoteness Of st.
Charles and to the fact that the news
of the result Of the riot is not given
freely, it is difficult to obtain details,
but there is no doubt of the authen-
ITCHY of the report with reference to
the death of the Griffins.
In the ST. Charles neighborhood the
negroes largely outnumber the whites,
and trouble has been brewing for a
long time, and it is said the negroes for
the past two a have been getting
insolent n belligerent. 1t is now be-
lieved that the leaders of the unruly
element have been killed, and that
further trouble will be averted.
Yesterday was election day, and
usually III such a day st. Charles is
crowded with negroes, but during the
entire day only two negroes We're seen
in the town, and these two appeared in
the morning and stayed in the village
lut a short time. sH AIT. 49,

GEN. BULLER'S BOAST.
Friend of kuropatkin Declaes General
Expects to Enter Toxic at
Army's Head.

Paris, March ga Moscow tele-
gram contains the statement of a
friend Of General Kuropatkin, which
is declared to be a faithful expression
OF h generals own views. After
pointing out thai the Russian fleet for
the moment is useless except against
the Japanese before Port Arthur, GEN
eral Kuropatkin's friend says:
1T will be the end of August when
the new squadron puts to sea from
Kronstadt. The fleet will be accompa-
MED by coal ships, and together with
the squadron of Admiral Wirenius, It
present in the Red sea-, will give us in
the Pacific, a supplementary contin-
gent of eight battleships, seven cruis-
ers and thirty-two ~torpedoboats.
TT will raise the blockade at Port
Arthur, and the balance of naval pow
er will be reversed. To every Japa-
ship and a half, and then we shall
claim Of our sailors important and de-
cisive work.
BY that time we hope to have driven
the Japanese out Of the continent into
the sea. We shall expect two things
of the f1eet-flrst, to sink all Japanese
transports, which will do VIA they
can to take back the scattered regi-
ments, and second, to cover our
transports laden with Russian troops.
We will go to Japan, remember
that. Europe may intervene and talk
of the middle act how and when she
pleases. We shall not concern our
selves about her. 1t is at Toxic and
nowhere else hat we shall sign the
condition of peace"

Fearing the eneny's ships might break

the three We're stranded to the right OF
the entrance. A fourth steamer went to
the right of the enemy's ships, and like
wise SAM to the side of the fairway. The
SLIM h battled with the enemy's six
torpedoboats. Engineer Artificer Swyereff
and six seamen were killed. and the COM
mander and twelve seamen were wounded.
AT daybreak the enemy's battleship
ana cruiser squadron appeared, and I pro-
ceeded with the fleet under my charge to-
meet the enemy.
The second attempt of the Japanese tot
block the entrance to Port Arthur has,
failed, thanks to the energetic defense by
the sea and land forces who acted as they
did during the first attempt.
The harbor remains perfectly clear"

i respectfully report that the enemy
having Withdrawn l returned to the har-
Dor with the fleet.
THE torpedoboat destroyer slim. which
was stranded on a reef in consequence of
damage caused to her engines by one of
the enemy's shells, was tioated during the
course of the night and entered the
harbor, thanks to the energy of her crew.

did not quit his post.
ON the fireships were Internal ma
chimes, the wires connected with which
were cut by Lieutenant Kedroff and En-
sign Pilsousky of the irregulars, whom I
dispatched on this task. They boarded
one of the steamers ard soon as it
stopped, cut the electric wires and eXtin-
guished the fire, which would have lit up
the entrance of the haFbor to the enemy
in the road stead.
I'm the morning a floating MN was
found, bearing an internal machine, but
the latter was successfully removed.
THE inspection made showed that the
steamers utilized as fireships were rot old.
They were each of about 1000 tons, and
they We're armed with light caliber guns"
