DEWEY WENT ARMED.
Testimony of Two Witnesses in

Norton, Kan, March 12.-z. H. Tin
dell of Atwood was the first witness in
the Dewey murder trial Friday after
noon. He testified that he was at Oak
ranch in the spring of 1899 when Dewey
took possession. He said Dewey had
about twenty men, most of whom were
armed, and that he saw Dewey carry
a six-shooter on two different occasions.
&c. P. KendalPs testimony corroborated
that of Tinde1l
s. j. Moorish of Oberlin was called
to testify as to the character of c. L.
Barnes, whose testimony had been i'll
conflict with that of Miss Pearl Ross.
Moorish said that five or six years ago
Barnes had a bad reputation in the vi
cinity in which he lived. A. Uhling tes
titled to the same effect. j. M Turner
of Atwood testified that July Is, 1902,
he saw Roy Berry moving a bunch of
cattle about a mile east of his place.
This was the time at which the sheriff
and his party were shot at Alpheus

KILLED IN SNOWSLIDE.
Two Dead and Six Injured in
Drop Into Canon.

Baker City, Ore, March 1.-TWO men
were killed and six injured in a snow
slide at the Queen of the West mine
in the Cornicupa district, 60 miles
northeast of here. The dead are:
H. w. HOLLAND.
A. C. cox.
The injured, one of whom is fatally
hurt are:
G. w. Estes.
Thomas Smith.
T. H. Mills.
John Hunt.
Frank Larimer.
Nels Lundstrom.
The slide raised the shaft building
and bunk houses and swept the occu-
pants down and almost to the bottom
of the canon, hundreds of feet below.
The dead and injured were recovered
with difficulty from the debris.
The mine is located in Bonanza basin,
one mile from the spot where Superin-
tendent Fred C. Dobler of the Corni-
cupa mine lost his life in a slide a
year ago. The snow in the basin is
from 10 to 100 feet deep. Below the
mine the mountain side is less steer
and the slide lost its momentum &c
which fact is attributed the saving OF
the lives of II of the IL who made the
wild ride on the top of the snow.

HIS NAME ON EVERY LIP.
Admiral Makaroff Is the Hero of the
Hour.

st. Petersburg, March 12.-Admiral
Makaroff's name is on every lin in st.
Petersburg today. He is the hero OF
the hour The details of Thursday
fighting in Port Arthur did not be-
come public until this morning, when
eager crowds. unmindful of heavy
snowfall, gathered about Viceroy
AIexieff's bulletins which were posted
loss of the Russian torpedo boat de-
stroyer was swallowed up by the ad-
rniration caused by the daring exploit
of the Russian naval commander-in-
chief in going personally to her rescue
There is a deep-Seated conviction here
that henceforth there will be a COM
plete change of sea tactics; Admiral
Makaroff will make the fleet at Port
Arthur an aggressive force. He enjoys
the reputation throughout the length
dashing officer who delights IN bril-
liant achievements. and his action of
Thursday adds to his laurels as bold
and fearless fighter who loves to take
counter to those generally accepted by
naval experts and strategists. One of
his pet diversions is armor.
The admiral is ever outspoken in his
criticism of the heavy battleship,
which he has always commended placed
too many eggs in a single basket, and
shows his Partially for fleet COM
posed of large number of swift. un-
armOred cruisers armed with heavy
guns and attended by an unlimited
number of torpedo boats. The protect
ed cruiser Novik. to which he trans
ferred his flag in the attempt to rescue
the torpedo boat destroyer, is practical
ly without armor protection. Admiral
Makarof's predilection for swift ships
has earned him the sobriquet of 1.-The
cossack of the sea-" He is not likely
| to give the enemy much rest while any
of his cruisers or torpedo boats remain
afloat. Something like a night torpedo
boat attack on the enemys base be-
hind the Elliott islands, for instance
would be such thing as the admiral
would undertake. He began his career
with several gallant exploits during the
| Turko-Russian war, while command
| ing a steamer which he had rugged uE
as a torpedo boat, and played havoc
with the sultan's f7otilla in the Black
sea and the Danube.
Prince .Arzen Kara georgevitch, broth
er of the King of Servia, is leaving to-
day for the far east.
The ladies' club at Vladivostok has
undertaken to make thousands of sand
bags for fertilization purposes.
