HAY HAS FIT OF WEAKNESS
SUDDENLY STRICKEN Ill WHILE
BOARDING STEAMER.
Condition Not Regarded as Alarming
as Vessel Leaves on Seized
uled Time.

New York, March 20.-Secretary of
State Hay was taken i'll Saturday as he
was about to board the White Star liner
Cretic for voyage to the Mediterranean
and became SO weak that he was taken
on board the steamer in wheeled chair.
That his condition was not regarded as
alarming seemed apparent, however, as
the steamer started on her voyage with
out delay. Mr.. Hay has been in poor
health for some time and the voyage
upon which he started was planned to
give him complete rest and an oppor-
tunity to recuperate. The secretary's
plans include stay of about six weeks
in southern Europe.
At the White Star dock there are three
short flights of stairs leading to the
second floor, from which floor the board
ing of the steamers is made. In going
up these stairs Mr.. Hay had to rest at
each landing. Just as he reached the
top he reeled back, but recovered him.
self and kept on. AS he was about to
start up the gang plank he was seen to
turn deathly white and sJagger, and he
would have fallen had not his friend
supported him. The secretary was as
sisted to heap of freight piled up near
the gang plank, where he sat down and
waited until an invalid's chair was
brought from the steamer. He was then
wheeled aboard the steamer and went at
once to his apartments. 1t was within a
few minutes of the steamers sailing
time when the secretary went on board,
and it was believed that if his i'll turn
was regarded as particularly serious
there would have been some delay,
while physicians were summoned or a
change in plans made. No word came
from Mr.. Hays apartments, however,
and the Cretic left her dock promptly
on schedule time. As she passed Sandy
Hook the Cretic displayed signal say
ing that the secretary was much better.
Washington, March 20.-"Extreme
exhaustion of the nerve centers brought
on by Overwork," is the cause assigned
by Surgeon General of the Navy Rixey,
who is Secretary Hays physician for
the secretary's collapse just before
boarding the steamer at New York Sat-
urday. The surgeon general had re-
ceived no message from the family, but
from his knowledge of the secretary's
illness he was confident the fainting
spell was due to this cause.

SEEDING IN PROGRESS
IN WESTERN CANADA.
Mild Weather Is Bringing Thousands
of Settlers.

The splendid yields of wheat, oats
and barley produced by the farmers
of Western Canada and the excellent
prices received for the same, have
been the means of giving an increased
interest throughout the United States.
AS result the inquiries made of the
Agents of the Canadian Government
have nearly doubled over those of the
same period last year. Railroad COM
panies are putting on increased carry
ing capacity to meet the demand made
upon them for carrying passengers
and freight. Everything points to
most prosperous year. There is room
for hundreds of thousands additional
settlers, much new land having been
opened up for settlement this year
1t is quite interesting to look
through the letters received from the
Americans who have settled in West
ern Canada during the past few years,
and considering the large number it
is surprising how few there are who
have not succeeded. An extract from
letter written by Mr.. Geo. M. Ggis-
void, of Red Deer, Alta, formerly OF
Grever, Montana, written on the I'd
of January, is as follows:
II am located one and one-half miles
from beautiful lake ten miles long,
where there is church, school, three
stores, creamery and two post Offices.
The fine stock, both cattle lcows and
steers), horses, hogs and sheep are
rolling fat grazing in pasture to-day,
Just & little snow, hardly enough for
good sleighing, as we just had Chi
nook which has melted the roads and
laid bare the fields and pasture. There
are fine wheat, oats, barley and flax
raised here, also winter wheat and
timothy hay for export to British Co
lumbia This is mixed farming and
dairy country This is the right time
to get a foothold in the Canadian
West, as it was some years ago in the
United States. We are free from wind
gumbo and alkali here and have fine,
clear, soft we'll and spring water OF a
depth of from to rs feet, and lots of
open ever flowing springs"
Telegraphic advices from Medicine
Hat say that seeding has commenced
at Medicine Hat, Lethbridge, and 9TH

til on the 10Th the maximum was As

is every appearance that spring has

Tiny Footpear for Women.

Some women when staying at hotels in
Paris do not care to exhibit to the pass
ers along the corridors the exact size
of their feet, so they carefully carry with
them a couple of pairs of tiny, delicate
shoes, which, instead of the ones they
are wearing, they place outside their
doors for the servants to take down and
clean. All the big boot shops in Paris
now make speciality of this tiny foot
gear, and pair or two form portion
of the trousseau of every up-to-date
bride.

MAJOR VIM. WARNER.

had been set for o'clock by concur
rent resolutions, and as the hour ap-
preached the clock was smashed in the
melee. When the disorder was at its
height Mr.. Kerens> made his appear
ance on the rostrum, and was given
rOusing cheers by the republicans. I'm.
mediately Senator McDavid (dem. }
moved that the joint assembly dis
solve. This was met with chorus of
noes. The roll call was then taken
on the motion to dissolve. The War
ner managers announced positively
that Kerens would withdraw in favo,
of their candidate. Kerens remained
on the stand during the roll call, which
resulted in the defeat of the motion
to adjourn by vote of 92 to 50.
The confusion became greater. Pres
ident Mckinley directed the sergeant
alarms to arrest any person who had
no right on the floor except outside
of the ratings. When the result of
the roll call was announced there were
repeated calls for Kerens. For two
minutes the spectators cheered as the
st. Louis leader stepped forward to
address the assembly.
Kerens Makes Speech.
II do not need to say am repub-
lican,' said Kerens; my record speaks
for that. Your duty is to elect a re-
publican senator Therefore, If Mai.
William Warner is your choice, say,
God speed to you, my fellow republic
cans, and elect him." When Col
Kerens concluded the Warner men be-
came frantically enthusiastic Senator
Dickinson above the din of Warner
cries shouted vainly to secure recogni-
ton from the chair Dickinson was
finally recognized. He moved recess
of 80 minutes, but was defeated 90 to
II. Senator McDavid and a score Of
democrats then demanded recognition
on motion to adjourn. They climbed
on the desks of the clerks, appealing
from the ruling of the chair, shouting
to the clerks not to call the roll. Clerk
Roach refused to call the roll A fight
started in one end of the hall, result
ing in the smashing of some furniture
Mr.. Russell took the roll out of
Roach's hands and began to call
it himself. The republicans voted for
Warner, while the democrats refused
to vote.J Somebody climbed ladder

Members Near to Conflict.
Democrats and republicans theat-
ened each other, and several serious
conflicts were narrowly averted SEN
ator Fields and Speaker Hill both
stood on top of the desk of the chair
man Fields is president pro tenn Of
the senate and democrat. He asked:
will the democratic members of this
assembly please come to order?" He
urged that it was not becoming demo-
Gratis, after a record of 40 years in this
state, to be guilty of such conduct
He restored order to some extent, and
roll call proceeded. 1t was the sixty
seventh ballot of the session and the
seventh of the day. The Kerens men
all went to Warner, and practically
all the followers of Niedringhaus did
the same, resulting in the election Of
the soldier.
When the excitement had subsidized
hearty cheers were given for Kerens
