installment of lands of the tract to be
reclaimed by the Twin Fails irrigation
work. The lot will embrace 10000
acres 2,2O, 900 acres having been pre-
viously opened.
A singular feature of the rush is that
there are great many people from
far western points For some days
large parties have been coming from
Oregon, Washington and northern
Idaho. A large number come from
the Occur d'Alene region and all hold
powers of attorney from others to To-
cate lands. The opening will be by
lottery system. the order of choice
being determined by drawing. The
town of Shoshone, which is the nearest
railway point, has been crowded for
ten days, people finding it difficult to
secure cots on which to sleep. Every
available conveyance is engaged in
hauling passengers to the new town.

War ak a Bluff,

Chicago. March 22-The Daily News
prints the following from its st. Pet
ersburg correspondents:
Mobilization of the last man and
spending of the last ruble to beat Japan
is mere bluff. The czar's treasury
is empty, the army is annihilated and
new one cannot be raised. Nicholas
himself and nine tenths of the people
desire peace. The Alexieff clique is
fighting for existence and is strongly
opposing the better informed statesmen.
General Bjetzki said to the Daily
News correspondent this morning: "To
speak of continuing the war would be
Inaccurate, it would be more correct
to talk of beginning. 1t is not enough
to have new commander. We must
have new army, new ammunition
and new railroad. Where are we to
get them? Even If we had them it
would be impossible to think of assum-
ing the offensive. General Linevitch
is condemned to act on the defensive.
Is it possible that Russia can look with
any degree of confidence to the Baltic
fleet to save the situation? Rojest-
vensky's squadrons, are weak and with
out proper sea base. They would have
to risk all on a single battle?

He is 70 years of age adm an old res

made life insuprortable for him and
that lately he had declined to either
wait on him or bring him food or other
necessaries of life.

the mine this morning to take from
the mines the bodies of their fellow
Workmen. These latter were killed by
second explosion and the after damp.
The first explosion seemed to shake
the foundation of the mountains and
the angry twin flash from the two
neighboring drift mouths lighted up
the heavens for miles around.
Soon from the mining villages for
several miles up and down the river
hundreds of people rushed to the scene
of the disaster. The first explosion
was caused by a naked fame coming
into contact with the gas. These
tlames leaped from the drift mouth and
set fire to everything In the mines
which were not blown out by the force
of the explosion. The great drums by
which the cars are run from the drift
mouth down the incline to the tipple
and the empties drawn up, was blown
from its moorings and down the noun
tainside 600 feet, and the farmhouse
caught fire and was totally consumed.
The cars that stood at the mouth
of the mine We're blown far down to-
ward the tipple, and much of the track
of the incline was destroyed, the rails
! twisted and the crossties whipped from
their beds in the ballast and sent
scorched and charred many rods away.
A rescue party was formed and
about 20 men entered the mine in
search of the bodies of those who had
persisted at the first explosion. The
men explored the mines for about two
or three hours, putting up brattices
SO that pure air would follow them
wherever they went. Finally some of
, them came out and reported that the
others were too careless in going for
: ward faster than good air was being
supplied, carried at the same time a

CURED, caused by the gas coming in
contact with the naked flame of a
miners lamp, and II men persisted
Mine Inspector Edward Pinckney ar
rived on the ground today and took
charge of the rescue work. The second
explosion again damaged the fan, and
Mr.. Pinckney will allow no one to en-
ter the mine until it is working prop
| erly and a drift of fresh air is running
| through the mine. When this is done
he will lead the rescue squad himself

Peter Dooley, who a few weeks ago
found a strong box containing 10000
in gold buried in the cellar of an old
