Russians Fear disaster.

ST. PETERSBURG, Feb. 2s.-The
fragmentary official and press reports
OF the fresh reverse sustained by Cen
eral Kuropatkin are inadequate to
draw a conclusion OF the magnitude
of General kuroki's success against
the Russian left. The officials of the
war Office + plainly discouraged at
the fashion in which kuroki is able
to drive and urn the Russian extreme
left, his advance column actually
crossing the Shakhe river. 1t is ad-
mitted that the fighting was desperate
at several passes Sunday and while
the front was being enveloped. the
forces Of Oyama evidently kept the
center and right engaged to proven,
kurOpatkin from sending reinforce
ments to head off kuroki.
The Associated Press hears from a
high source that General Kuropatkin
considers, his position on the Shake
river TO be menaced to such an extent
by General kuroki successful flank
movement as to threaten the necessity
OF retiring on Tie pass. and has 50
advised Emperor Nicholas. No con.
tirmation Of this is Obtainable in mill.
tary circles here, where it is pointed
out that with the Japanese pressing
the whole Russian line such an opera.
ton must inevitably end in a disaster
OF the first magnitude.

Mrs EannieDEx

through the advice of Mrs. Pinkham,
Of Lynn. Mass, which is given to sick
women absolutely free of charge.
Mrs. Pinkham has for many years
made a study of the ills Of her sex ;
she has consulted with and advised
thousands of suffering women. who
to-day owe not only their health but
even life to her helpful advice.
Mrs. Fannie D. Fox, of z Chestnut
Street. Bradford, Pa, writes:
Dear Mrs. Pinkham -
~ suffered for a long time with womb
trouble, and finally was told by my physician
that l had a tumor on the womb. / did not
want to submit to IN operation, so wrote you
for advice. / received your letter and did as
you told me, and to-day I am completely
cured. My doctor says the tumor has disap-
peared, and I am once more a well woman.
/ believe Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound is the best medicine in the world for
women"
The testimonials which we are con-
stantlypublishing from grateful women
establish beyond a doubt the power of
Lydia e. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound to conquer female diseases.
Women suffering from any form of
female weakness are invited to
promptly communicate with Mrs.
Pinkham, at Lynn. Mass. She asks
nothing in return for her advice. 1t is
absolutely free. and to thousands OF
women has proved to be more precious
than gold.

Minnesota Land Frauds.

ST. PAUL, Feb. 2S.-William r.
Horsnell, proprietor of a real estate
and employment agency here, is under
arrest here and was given a prelimin.
arv hearing before United States Com
missioner Spencer, on a charge OF Sc.
curing by conspiracy homestead titles
to Ii, 600 acres of public lands in Min.
uesota. The hearing was continued q
week on request of the government.
The alleged frauds with which Hors-
nell is CHARGED we're committed within
the past two years, aud he is said to
have induced persons who applied to
him for positions to make applications
for homestead entries, giving them as
much as 800 for filling out application
blanks on which title to the land was
subsequently secured by men said to
have been working with H%orsnell and
in conspiracy to defraud the United
states. The persons asked to sign
blanks did not, it is said, ever hear of
them again. They simply signed their
names and received the money prom
i.ed by Horsnell. Some of those who
signed applications for land for aors-
nell, it is said, were young girls not
more than I. years OF age.

A Nevada Lynching

RENO, New, Feb. 2S.-A mob at
Hazen, Churchill county, hanged q
footpad last night. "Red" Wood and
a companion robbed two men at the
railroad station and a mob quickly
collected and ran the two men into the
sage brush, where one of them was
overtaken.
The prisoner was taken to the town
Jail, a wooden structure. His arrest
caused the people Of the town to arise
in arms and as the night advanced
their anger became unmanageable. 1t
was after . o'clock when the crowd,
by this time thoroughly organized,
marched to the Jail. An axe and a
sledge hammer we're used in bursting
open the door and soon Wood, t-emb-
ling with fear, was dragged from the
Jail. No formalities were gone
through. He was led aud carried to
the nearest telegraph pole. A rope
was thrown over the cross.arm and in
a moment the fellow was swung into
the air. The free end of the rope was
then fastened, the mob dispersed and
it was after 8 o'clock this morning be-
fore the people found him. a coron.
er's jury was summoned, a verdict OF
death by hanging by unknown part
les, and by noon the body was buried
in the Hazen cemetery.

An Effective Disguise.

Some historical characters who were
considered bright in their way wouldn't
have the slightest idea who was talk
ing if they We're to listen to themselves
spouting in the pages Of a historical
novel.
If some Of these powdered and be-
wigged gentlemen were to put on their
gum shoes and come softly treading
back to this earth to see what they
could discover, the automobiles and the
telephones would doubtless surprise
them, but what would startle them
most would be to learn that they Use
language they had surreptitiously G
tracted from the melodrama whenever
they had occasion to talk to their hired
men.
But through it all there would be II
keen note Of disappointment. They
would mourn that their wives could
not be there to see that they could
come home from battle wet to the skin
and not swear like Il deck hand be
cause dry clothes We're not ut hand.

Humor ana Philosophy
BY DUNCAN n. SMITH
IT is CREAMY m DEMAND.

/ have carefully tried to explore
All the byways of civilized men:
l have searched and have hunted them
Ger,
l have hunted and hunted again:
I have sought in wide avenues grand.
i have searched in the m~addening mob.
But attention l cannot
When l ask for a laborless job.
I am sure that my tireless zeal
Should my diligent efforts commend.
What a JOY my proud bosom would feel
With an effortless job to contend!
But, oh. search as l will through the mart,
And. oh. hunt as l may through the
street,
It is vain that I've studied my part:
Far too many there are who c0npete.
There are others that long for a place
In this maelstrom Of cross currents deep:
They endeavor to so at a pace
That their strength and their means
cannot keep.
And most loudly they clamor. indeed,
For a place hat will salary pay;
It Is coin that they urgently need,
And the work is no object. they say.
There are many. too many. alas.
Who are searching as eager as l!
They are furnished with ignorance Grass:
In assay of pure nerve they stand high,
For a man who is gentle and good
Who must mix with a cuftureless mob
It IS hard. be it we'll understood.
To catch on to a laborless job.

URGES QUARANTINE LEGISLATION.
President Roosevelt Advises Congress
That New a Is Necessary.

WASHINGTON, March 1.-President
Roosevelt today transmitted to con.
gress a message indorsing measures
pending before congress intended to
prevent the spread Of contagious dis
eases of animals from One state to an.
other or to foreign countries. The
message points out the right Of the
secretary of agriculture to regulate
the interstate movement of animals
exposed but not actually diseased,
must be recognized If the spread OF
the disease is to be prevented. The
president urges that the proposed
remedial legislation be enacted into
law, his message being in part as fol.
lows:
~ fear, If no remedial Legislation
be granted at this session, that it may
be impossible to continue to enforce
the necessary measures for control.
ling this class of disease, and tina,
serious, widespread and irreparable
injury will be caused to the livestock
interests of the United States. If the
federal quarantine is rendered inef.
f~ective, state will quarantine agains,
state, each requiring compliance with
different statutes, the way to marke,
may be blocked or rendered very diff
ficult for shipments of livestock; con
tagious diseases of livestock may b.
SO disseminated through the stock
yards and channels of commerce
that foreign countries will restrict the
export of animals and possibly metse
from the United States, all of which
would be disastrous to the livestock
industry.
~ therefore put in an earnest plea
for early action in this matter anc
commend to your favorable considera

committees on agriculture and refer

Mrs. Clark Very Ill.

NEW YORK, Feb. 2S.-The condition
of the wife Of United States Senator
w. A. Clark of Montana is reported
to be critical. Mrs. Clark is at the
Bull private sauitarium, where she
was admitted two weeks ago to be OPP
Grated upon. The operation was per.

recovery has not materialized and
grave doubts are now entertained
Senator Clark has maintained a con.

Big Earnings Of Great Northern.

CHICAGO, Feb. 2S.-The earnings of
the Great Northern railroad the COM
ing fiscal year will amount to 20 per
cent. on its stock, according to the
latest official estimates. In the six
months already elapsed considerably
more than a full years dividend on
the stock has been earned, after pro.
viding for twelve months charges and
taxes.
The remarkable showing in a large
measure explains the recent advance
in Great Northern stock, although, OF
course, an important factor has been
q fuller appreciation of the value OF
the roads iron-ore lands, which, it is
estimated, contain 500, O00, 900 tons OF
ore. These lands, at Charles NJ.
Schwab's estimate of 81 q ton as the
value of the ore in the ground, would
be worth $500, 600 900, or $500 a share
on the Great Northern stock.
The steel corporation for some time
has been anxious 20 acquire these
lands. President Hill, however, is in
no hurry to sell, and it is understood
that he takes the position that the
lapse of time will increase the value
of the lands by making them rela-
lively the larger proportion of the
country's available ore supplies. VI.
timately, no doubt, the lands will be
sold, but it will be in a case where
the buyer must do the hustling.

MRS. STANFORD POISONED.
Authorities Unable te Trace the Cause
Of Murder Mystery.

HONOLULU, March Mrs. Jane
Lathrop Stanfrod of San Francisco,
widow of United States Senator LIE.
land Stanford, died at 1l:4O o'clock
last nigh. at the Moana hotel here.
Suspicious circumstances surrounded
the death Of Mrs. Stanford. She was
taken i'll at II o'clock and said: II
have been poisoned" Her last words
were: "This is a horrible death to
de-"
Mrs. Stanford came here from San
Francisco on the Korea, February q.
In conversation with Mrs. Henry
Highton of San Francisco, who is
now here, Mrs. Stanford said that an
attempt had been made to poison her
in that city and this was her reason
for sailing on the Korea. 1t was Mrs.
Stanford's belief, according to Mrs.
Highton, that enough poison had been
used to kill 70 persons.
Before retiring last night Mrs. Stan.
ford took a dose of bicarbonate of
soda, which she purchased in San
Francisco. 1t Is said the soda con-
tanned strychnine, but this report can.
not be verified. DR.. F.. H. Humph-
reys, who attended Mrs. Stanford, at
onc began to make an examin alton
of the contents of the bottle which had
not been touched since Mrs. Stanford
left San Francisco.
SAN FRANCISCO, March lon the
18th of last month it was reported that
an attempt had been made to murder
Mrs. Stanford by means of poison
placed in a bottle of mineral water at
her home on California street in this
city. 1t was stated that she had taken
three drinks of the deadly mixture,
but the poison had been used in such
large quantities that it served as Its
own emetic. Although the story Of
the attempt to poison her was posi-
lively denied, persistent rumors re
garding the matter were circulated,
She sailed for the Orient on the
steamer Korea two weeks ago, and
it al believed by her friends here
that the voyage would result in he,
complete restoration to health.

ars at a conservative estimate.

Railroads in addition to the Pennsyl-
vania, including the New York Central,
the Lehigh, the Erie, the Lackawanna
and the New Haven, probably did not
get away without contributing between
them $250,000. The telephone company
was mulcted to the extent of $780,
900. Miscellaneous interests probably
will figure up their contributions of a
quarter of a million more.
OF this enormous sum at least IS
per cent was disbursed in the nature
of contributions to the parties direcs,
the other % per cent going to the men
in a position to be of assistance in
promoting desirable legislation or pre-
venting the passage of bills not want
