According to an official announcement
sent out by President II. w. Goode of the
Lewis and Clark centennial, the fair at
Portland will be opened on the appointed
day, June l, and will be complete Fa-
vorable weather and the absence of labor
troubles, together with hearty co-opera-
ton on the part of every one concerned,
has resulted In what promises to be a
novety-a great fair finished when opened
to the public. The nagement of the
Portland show has displayed commend
able enterprise since the inception of the
project, and has taken advantage of the
failures made by previous fairs. If popu-
lar opinion is not greatly at fault we
will have an exposition on the Pacific
coast well worth seeing. The railroads
are already telling about the superb west
ern scenery which their lines traverse
and the reduction of rates to the far west
has begun.

bered thirteen, farces thirteen, light COM

five, and tragedies one. Eighty-one new
plays were produced and thirty new mus

AFTER SHERRICK FUNDS
ATTEMPT TO BE MADE TO COL
LECT GAMING LOSSES.

A dispatch from Indianapolis. Ind. last
night says According to Attorney General
Charles w Miller, who now has in charge
the legal matters pertaining to the alleged
defalcation of David E. Sherriok, ex-auditor
of state, the state will make an effort to
collect the money which 1t Is charged was
lost by Sherrick at the gaming tables.
THE state has the right to follow and
collect all funds belonging to the state
used by Mr.. Sherrick,'' says Mr.. Miller.
docs that mean that the state Will at
tempt to recover the money lost by Sher-
rick's gambling?" the attorney general was
asked.
81 think that my statement covers your
question:" replied Mr.. Miller.
Other Losses.
The amount referred to as lost by gam
bling was the $4,000 that Gov. Hanly, in
his speech yesterday at Hamilton, lnd-'
said Sherrick lost at French Lick in April,
1903 1t is understood, however, that the
governor has evidence that other sums
have been lost in the same way at dl1-
ferent times during the last two years.
If this money can be recovered. the amount
to be made good by the bonding company
will be reduced Just SO much.
Roscoe o. Hawkins, representing the
American Surety Company, also said that
efforts would be made to recover this
amount"
"If evidence can be learned that this
money has gone this way, every effort Will
be made to recover" said Mr.. Hawkins.
He would not say whether this effort would
be made by his company or the state. but
1t is understood that the state will take the
matter up.
1t now develops that the American Surety
Company will not make any fight for the
application of the sureties, aggregating
face value OF about $1I2,OCO, that are now
in possession Of Attorney General Miller,
and that the state will have entire charge
Of these securities. The state, therefore,
will not lose a dollar
By tomorrow morning the shortage of
Sherrick will have been reduced to $l27 ,372
by the payment into the state treasury OF
S19,S25 that is now on deposit in the Farm
ers and Merchants Bank at Cicero, Ind No
new estimate has yet been made for the
real value Of the other securities turned
over by Sherrick.

be from Manassas or Alexandria, was killed
by Officers Rossen and Burgandine about

man named Ella Fields and others. He

He then forced an entrance by battering
down the door of the shanty with his ak.
The Fields woman made her escape through
a rear door, and. rushing downtown, notified
Officers Rossen and Burgandine. The ne
gro was followed and found on the railroad
tracks. He did not seem to be in any hurry
to escape the officers.
When they called upon him to surren-
der the negro deliberately turned upon
them with uplifted ak. but before he could
use 1t Rossen shot him in the abdomen.
The negro staggered and the AK struck the
pistol held by Rossen. knocking it to the
ground.
Burgandine grabbed the weapon and also
shot the man in the abdomen. The negro
was brought to jail In an ambulance. Jail
Physician DR.. E. H. Lewis was called. The
man was then unconscious, and died in
about ten minutes. The coroner called an
inquest.
A negro from Winston, small station
three miles south of Culpeper was struck
on the head by brick this afternoon and
severely wounded, and 1T is thought this
a,t was perpetrated by the man who was
Nlled.

gents of the university, D. c. Cole pop
