FORGOT HIS IDENTITY.
Thinks He is a Native of New York
and Yale Graduate.

SAN FRANCISCO. February 29.-Four
days ago a man called at the Central
Emergency Hospital and said he had for
gotten his identity. He has since been de-
tained under the name of John Meyers, a
small Bible in his pocket bearing that
name.
The man thinks he Is a native of New
York and that he lives somewhere up the
Hudson river: also that he is graduate of
been engaged in literary work, either as
an illustrator or a writer. This Is borne
out by his conversation, and he drew a
character picture and down in the corner
placed a signature "P c. w. 'O4"
In his pockets when he came to the hos
pital was small memorandum book con-
tanning the addresses of persons at SpO-
kane, WASH and Butte, Mont. He also
had a card of the Rev. H. B. Collier, San
Francisco.
Mr.. Collier called on the man, but was
unable to place him, and Meyers was un-
able to recall the minister. A peculiar
feature was that the card he had was one
that was printed seven years ago.

NATIVE TROOPS REVOLT.
Trouble in German Territory in West
Africa-Colonies Alarmed,

BERLIN. February 29-The native troops
in the Cross and Nsassanang rivers region
of German kamerum. Equatorial West At
rica, have revolted. Dispatches reached the
colonial Office today saying that several
factories of the Northwest Kamarun Com
pany have been burned and that four Ger
mans were killed. All the German African
colonies are in a ferment over tho state
ments spread by Hereros runners that the
Germans are being driven into the sea.
Colonel Leutwein. governor of German
Southwest Africa, telegraphed from Swa-
kopmund yesterday that Major Estorff' s
column. February 25, had severe ten
hours fight with the Hereros, near Otji-
hinanaka. The. Hereros held their posi-
ton, against which artillery was not avail
able. Toward the evening Frankes CON-
pany broke through the enemy's formation
and the natives retired. Their strength and
the number of their losses are not known.
One German officer was killed and four
officers, among them Baron Schoenau
Wehr. and four men were wounded.

One Conductors sagacity.

There Is one conductor in this town who
knows how to deal with the eternally femi-
nine question of fares. His gift was brought
to light yesterday when two young women
entered his car. Both wanted to pay for
and the other quarter. Everybody knows
how two women go on when they ride to-
gether In this case. however, the usual
duet of Il mean to pay Indeed you
won't. then. I am going to pay. myself
was interrupted by the conductor, who
calmly gathered both the bill and the silver.
handed each woman five tickets and the one
woman her change. He had simpliied the
situation by making each pay for herself
and incidentally, putting an extra quarter
to the company's credit
And strange to say each young woman
looked disappointed; as If. somehow, she
had expected the other to pay.

Rise in Peanut Prices.

Peanuts are higher in price than they
have been for many years. In ordinary
years hundreds of thousands of bushels of
virginia-grown Spanish peanuts are ex-
ported to southern France. chiefly to Mar
seille. There the oil is pressed out of them
and is shipped back to America In large
quantities under French labels as pure
olive oil. This season comparatively few
American peanuts have been exported. and
the Marseiile pressers have had to rely
chiefly on the African peanut, which is by
no means SO desirable as the Virginia
product.
An interesting bit of news in connection
with the present situation is the announce
ment by one of the large dealers that he
has recently placed an order for 1.000 bags.
or about 1850 bushels. Of Japanese peanuts
These nuts are now supposed to be on their
way to America. Peanut growing has in
late years become quite an important In
dustry In some parts of Japan, and the

product. both in size and flavor
