STEAMER IS ABANDONED.
Captain and Crew Of Doomed Vessel
Rescued With Great Difficulty.

Captain n Crew Of Doomed Vessel
Rescued With Great Difficulty.
New York, Dec. 31.-With her sig
nails of distress and her half-masted
ensign still flying, the steamer Drum
elzier was abandoned last night as a
total wreck by her captain and a
dozen officers and crew who were TAX
en- off the craft and landed on Oak
Island by the crew of the Fire Island
and Oak Island life saving stations.
Early in the day eighteen men of the
crew were taken off the stranded
steamer by the surf boat of the Sandy
to the scene The men were brought
to this city later on a tug. Capt. Mich
olson, Chief Engineer Wood and the
remainder of the officers and crew de-
cided to remain on board until official
ly notified that the vessel had been
placed in the hands Of the wreckage
company in order to obviate any
claim for salvage on the derelict.
At 4:30 o'clock in the afternoon the
captain decided that it was unwise to
remain longer on the ship, which was
being terribly buffeted by the heavy
seas, and asked immediate rescue.
The crews of the nearby stations re-
sponded to his signals and after a
hayI struggle the men were taken of
and landed at Oak Island. The res
cue of the men was hazardous in the
extre.ne and was attended by many
thrilling incidents.

members of the legislature has~ :
arrived in the city, and whether tn
plans OF William G. Evans and other
Republican leaders to reseat Cor.
James Peabody will be adopted by q
majority of the Republican members
still is undecided. The Republicans
have an ever two-thirds of the votes
on joint ballot and can carry any
measure on which they are united. A
Republican caucus probably will be
held next Monday at which the con-
toest for the speakership of the house
and the plan to continue Gov. Peabody
in office will be considered. There
are at least a dozen candidates for the
speakership.
Some Republican members, known
as followers Of Former United States
Senator Edward O. Wolcott, have de-
clared that while they do not contem-
plate a union with the Democrats I'M
der any consideration. they will
OPPoSC NtSoIouS'y
any plan for counting out Adams. The
plan to seat Gov. Peabody, some of
them declared, is wrong, and no eau
Gus action will bring them to support
such action.
The canvass of the votes for state
Iflcers is made by the legislature.
and is not subject to review in the
courts.
For the first time in the history of
the state a Judge Of a district court
was compelled yesterday to appear in
person before the supreme court of
the state and explain to that tribunal
why he had issued a writ of man
damus when it was apparent that he
was in error in SO doing. Judge Sam
uel l.. Carpenter, of the district court,
was the man served with the citation.
Writs Are Dismissed.
A solemn protest against the action
OF the high court was entered by
Judge Carpenter, and he said that un-
der the circumstances he believed
that he had authority to issue the writ
against the state canvassing board to
force that body to canvass the returns
made for Charles B. Ward and DR..
Michael Beshoar, candidates for the
senate IN the Democratic ticket from
Boulder and Las Animas counties, re-
s%pectively. Being now advised that
the supreme court has decided that
district courts have no power to issue
such writs the judge said: ut be-
comes obligatory upon this respond
ent, without any order of this court,
of his own motion. to dismiss such
proceedings"
Judge Carpenter was t%hereupon dis
charged by the supreme court and the
writs issued by him dismissed.

BURN SURPLUS COTTON.
Whole South Is Asked to Action to
Restore Prices.

Macon, Ca, Dec. 31.-The farmers
and merchants of this section are u.s.
ing every possible means within their
power to reduce the supply of cotton
SO as to restore prices. At Fort
Gaines. in the southeastern section of
the state, yesterday, a number OF
farmers were in town to hear what
the ginner's report through the gov
ernment's agricultural department
will be. AS soon as it was learned
that the report was more bearish than
the recent estimates and there was
another decline. CONSERVATION pre-
vailed. A kind of mass meeting was
called. 1t was resolved that in every
City and hamlet of the South the pro-
ducers and of cotton should
apply the torch to every tenth bale.
Every man present contributed money
to assist in paying for enough cotton
to carry out the resolution. Torches
were applied to a pile of cotton in the
street. and the people went wild with
excitement. Money was freely con-
tributed to pay the wne Of the
burning cotton.

Believed to Do Leader Of Horse Thief
Gang Wanted In Manitoba.

DOlIovoo 10 Do Aea0er OF Hor0o JnIey
Gang Wanted In Manitoba.
The most desperate character to &C.
cupy q cell in the Brown county Jail
for many months has been captured
by Sheriff Cole and is held awaiting
~extradition papers from Canada, where
he is wanted for horse stealing. He
goes under the name of George Turn
er, but has a number of aliases. He
vas tracked to Aberdeen through CEN
tral North Dakota, from Canada, by
H. Mcclure, one of the provincial con
stables of Winnipeg, Canada, and
when he left Canada is said to have
had in his possession twenty-five head
OF stolen animals. These he left at va
rious points along the route. When
he reached Aberdeen Mcclure was
there awaiting his arrival. AS Mcclure
sat in the Office of the Ward hotel he
saw Turner drive by with a team Of
the stolen horses. He watched him
until he saw the man stop at the
North Side hotel. then started for
Sheriff Cole. When the officers went
to the hotel Turner had disappeared.
S~uspecting his destination, the officers
took the afternoon train for Hecla and
put up at the hotel in that town.
Shortly after midnight their man
walked into the hotel. He left a rifle
in the hallway and walked into the
office, keeping both hands in his over
coat pockets. Fearing the mar had
his hands on his revolver, the officers
made no effort to arrest him until they
could catch him of his guard, and
Sheriff Cole, representing himself to
be a land buyer from Iowa, engaged
the man in conversation. After a chat
OF an hour or more, Turner, his fears
apparently dissipated, took his hands
from his pockets. Instantly Cole drew
his revolver and ordered him to throw
up his hands.
Turner started to back off and the
officer grabbed him. Some time in the
scrimmage Turner drew a revolver
and pressed 1t against the sheriff's
body directly over the heart. Before
he could pull the trigger the Canadian
officer caught the gun and stuck his
finger under the hammer, preventing
the discharge. 1t a only after a des-
perate struggle that Turner was final-
ly overpowered and handcuffed.
He asserts his innocence and claims
to have never been in Canada. He re-
fuses to return to the Dominion with.
out a requisition. Several of the
stolen horses have been recovered and
will be held in Aberdeen awaiting the
arrival of their owners to identify
them. Turner is believed to be the
head of a gang Of horsethieves oper.
ating in Canada and the Dakotas.

10 MAY JOIN BAD MEN,"
Alleued T~errorizer Of Santee Agency
Skins From Officers.

James Smith, a Sioux Indian belong

reign of terror at the agency, during
which he is charged with having stab
bed and severely injured Henry Ba-
dan, a white man, and to have set fire
to one of the agency buildings. has
made his escape from the agency au-
thorities. 1t is believed he has cross
ed to the South Dakota side of the
Missouri river. 1t is probable he may
strive to reach the Milestone country,
which is a favorite resort for fugitives
from Southern Indian reservations,
and where Jack" Sully, the so-called
"king of the cattle %rustlers," was shot
and killed some months ago while re.
sisting arrest.

dren, the youngest of which she took
with her, leaving the rest with the de.
serted husband. Batchelder Is also
married and has been working in the

parture OF his wife, Carda attempted
to commit suicide, and was only pre-.
vented by the pistol being taken from
him.

SAVES EVEN THE BY-PRODUCTS
Great Things Expected of New Ore.
REDUCING Process.

DR.. j. A. Ogden, a chemist, is build.
ing an or%e-reduction mill in the lower
part of Deadwood which is destined to
do wonders in the cheap handling of
low-grade ores. For several years he
has been working on patents covering
his discoveries and inventions, and is
getting a 112-ton mill ready to treat
ores by his new process. The ordinary
cyanide process does not save all of
the gold and silver in the ore there
being a loss in most mills of 20 per
cent. DIR. Ogden says he will not only
saw all the gold and silver in the ore,
but also the b%y-products, such as lead,
copper, zinc and nickel. In several in.
stances here in the Hills, also at Vic.
tor, Col, and at a mine in British Co.
lumbia, his tests have saved enough of
these by-products to pay the entire
cost Of mining and milling the ore,
leaving the gold and silver profit.
The mechanical part of the mill is
and is kept automatically in constant
and is kept automatically in constnat
motion. The finer the ore is crushed
the easier it is handled. In the ordi.
nary cyanide process the fine ore
forms shines which are hard to han.
de.
Over twenty-five years ago DR.. Og-
den began experimenting to find a So
luton Of chemicals that would take
out the values in gold, silver and other
metals. He lived at Philadelphia and
came to Deadwood six years ago to be
nearer the mines. He has had hun.
dreds of samples of ore SEN him from
all over the world. Some of the most
difficult ores of Australia, others from
Mexico, have yielded up practically all
of their values by the Ogden process.
All of his extractions are made by a
combination of chemicals, which are
helped by electricity. The time re-
quired for reducing the hardest kind
of ore is from three to six hours. No
zinc is used in the precipitation of
values. an acid taking its place.. A
cleanup can be made every day instead
Of semi-monthly.
DR.. Ogden will treat 100 tons daily
Of custom ore and twelve tons daily in
the twelve-ton tanks which will be
used for the testing Of ores entirely.
Here in the Hills it will mean the han
ding of ores running as low as $3.50
a ton gold. Several mining companies
are waiting to 8 the Ogden process

FL A PERFUME THAT SMELLS.
The Awful OdOr That Comes From
Pure Altar of Roses.

The Awful Odor That Comes From
Pure Altar of Roses.
The perfumer took from his desk
small flask of copper.
"In TASKS like this altar of roses
comes to u.s." he said. ALTAR of roses
is worth from $40 to S25 an ounce, ac-
= cording to the market. This flask is
empty now, but in it little odOr still
fingers"
The visitor smiled delightedly. He
had never smeIt pure altar of roses be-
fore. Now he unscrewed the stopper
and, closing his eyes, with an ecstatic
look he applied his nostriIs to the flask.
But only for an instant Then he
threw back his head, twisting his
features into a grimace Of disgust, and
he exclaimed:
Garbage! Bone yards! Glue fac
tories!'
The perfumer laughed.
"All essential oils smell like that" he
said. ''Yet no good perfume can be
made without them"
He took from a shelf a cut glass jar
filed with a thick, yellowish oil that
looked like petroleum partly refined
In this jar" he said, there are forty
ounces of pure altar of roses worth
over $500. You know how the altar
smells alone. Now watch me make a
rich perfume by adding things to it."
He put a few drops of the altar into
vial. He filled the vial with spirits
of musk another of orris than one of
neroli, one of rose, of violet, of orange,
of vanilla, and, finally, the oil of cloves
and bergamota ag. aas1saEs1rE Ae4

it exquisite?"
"EXquisite'' said the visitor.

malodorous and costly altar of roses il

quarters and feet
There is a dignity Of carriage about
all the women in this country. l fan
cied it might be due to the fact that
formerly, before the Code Napoleon
came into operation, the law obliged
the firstborn, whether boy or girl to
inherit the patrimony and continue the
head Of the family, the husband taking
( the wife's name when the inheritor was
a woman, thus giving the woman a
perfect equality from her birth. The
matrons are not less beautiful than the

Women Cooks.

"The day is not far off when women
cooks will be only disagreeable men,
ory," remarked DR.. Robert E. Thomp-
son of Philadelphia In the course Of
recent address, and the statement has
created not little dissension in the
City Of Brotherly Love, particularly
among the women. Continuing, DR..
Thompson laid the blame for the ma
tonal dyspepsia at the feet Of the wo-
men cooks Of the country. The only
way to get rid of dyspepsia. he told
his hearers, was to get rid of the wo-
man cook. Women have no natural
gift for COOKING" said this critic.
They have been forced by the men
to engage in the culinary pursuit just
as II it were as simple as washing @
handkerchief or blanket They cook
what we like instead of what Is good
for US, and their lack of knowledge of
our requirements makes them directly
