Fighting Weeds.

There is nothing which hold to the
soil with such pertinacity as weeds.
1t is probable that the Egyptians are
to-day fighting the same weeds which
they were trying to exterminate by
the aid of the Israelites when they
were in bondage. We must always
bear this in mind, that we manure and
cultivate all the weeds we do not de-
stroy. Eternal vigilance is the price
we pay for the determination Of
weeds.

4 JUNCTION MAY 9.
ToIzio's View Regarding Rojestvensky's
 and NebogatOff's Ships. .

Tokio, May 7.Assuming that Vice Admiral Rojestvensky meditates a speedy junction of his squadron with Vice Admiral Nebegatoff's division, it is believed here that the meeting of the ships may be expected by Tuesday, May 9, the speed of Nebogatoff's divi- sion being only about seven knots an hour. These ships are believed to be in need of coal and stores, and their deficiencies in this respect will probably be supplied by Vice Admiral Roiestven- sky at some friendly port after the two adnirals effect a junction. The future movements of the Russian Pacific squadron is a matter of speculation here, although the delay of Rojestven- sky on the Indo-China coast has raised doubt as to his purpose to move north ward and risk an engagement at an early date. f SF

 Columbus, Ohio, May 7.-Rev. Dr. Washington Gladden., pastor of the First Congregational church, to-day distributed among the members of his congregation copies of his recent ad- dress to the Congregational ministers at Boston protesting against the accept ance of MT. Rockefeller's gifts to the American Board of Missions, and cem- mented thereon. He said:
 II think you know your minister well enough to know that he does not make rash or reckless statements about such matters. Some of you have said you could not judge in the matter, as you had no knowledge of the facts I think I have given you facts enough to jus- tify a judgment. But there are vol umes more.
 If this protest has any significance it is in it's determination to put the stamp Of approval upon lawful and honorable business and to put the stamp of disapproval on lawless and dishonorable business.

Sebastopo1, May 1.-The torpedo boats which are being built at the govern n1ent yard here under the general su- pervision of Lewis Nixon of New York are nearing completion and their trials in the Black sea will begin in few days In order to overcome the difficulty always encountered in work in foreign country, MT. Nixon provided his own organization, with which he has pushed the construction of these boats to suc- cessful conclusion. Much is expected of these torpedo boats. The Russian ad- miraIty already has had practical evil dence of the seaworthiness of the Nixon boats in the performance of the Greg ory, which crossed the Atlantic in the face of heavy weather, but the future prestige of the designer of the Amer jean battleshio 0regan will depend in Russia upon the result of the coming trials, which will be much more severe that usual. in order to test certain ad- vantages claimed for them by their American constructor.

CHICAGO STRIKE SITUATION
END OF STRENUOUS IYEEK FINDS EMPLOYERS AHEAD.

Teamsters Must Either Yield or Decide
 to Extend the Strike by Calling Out
 Thousands of other Workmen, Mem-
 bers of Affiliated Unions-Every
 Business Man to Double Their Force.
 of Non-Union Men.
 Chicago, May T--After a strenuous week, during which street riots were frequent and the calling of troops seem- ed imminent, and at the end of which scandalous charges were made against the peace officers of Chicago, the teamsters strike to-day rested at the beginning of its third week with the employers apparently in the advantage. the teamsters now appear to be in a position where they must either yield or decide to extend the strike by calling out thousands of other workmen en- gagged in affiliated unions. The Fedora ton of Labor to-day took no action looking to an extension of the trouble, although a great deal of ineendiary talk was indulged in. Resolutions charging the Employers association with conspiracy, and asking that State Attorney Healy start an investigation of their business methods, were passed. Commencing to-norrow morning the business men will increase their efforts to bring the strikers to terms. Arrange ments have been made by everp busi- ness house involved in the trouble to double their force of non-union men. Each of these wagons will be guarded by deputy sheriffs or policemen, and all i these men have received implicit in- structions from superior officers to pre- vent disturbances of any kind. The in- structions of each of the deputy sheriffs and each of the policemen is to use ev- cry peacable means in their power to quiet the rioters, but if this proves un- successful to use their revolvers and to shoot to kill. The strikers and their friends during the past few days have shown little inclination to clash with the deputy sheriffs or the policemen. To-day the express companies made and in not a single instance, it was as- serted tonight, had any of the wagons deliveries in all parts of the city. Each of the wagons carried two armed guards met with opposition. ..... ,--.
 During the day several firms involved in the strike replenished their coal sup ply, which in many cases had dwindled down to nearly nothing. All these coal wagons were driven by non-union team sters and their friends. The Employers association announc- ed tonight that they would do every thing possible to assist the committee appointed yesterday by Mayor Dunne to investigate the causes of the strike.
 Charges of conspiracy by both sides caused Mayor Dunne to appoint the in- vestigating committee. President Shea of the Teamsters' union tonight said that the unions would be found ready to assist the mayors committee in ev- cry manner possible to bring to light all the facts concerning the difficulty.

 We sat just as we did at camp. MT. Loeb was the only dude of the party IOu T6pUIIIIs " lSS been there. You could get all kinds of pieces for your papers"
 Other members of the hunt said the party talked over the events of the last three weeks, and had good time gem erally. The president was at his best. He was entirely rested and had just came in from two or three hours drive through the woods, where he went to study Colorado birds. MT Stewart is naturalist, who knows every bird in the mountains and can tell its habits and initiate it's calls.
 The dinner was served in a private dining room of the Hotsl Colorado. The guests were dressed much as they were in the mountains. Flannel shirts were the rule, although the guides did dis card their caparejos, and laid away their revolvers. The president and MT. Loeb wore frock suits. Some of the stories told at the dinner later went into circulation, but it was understood they were not to be printed. They re- lated entirely to incidents connected with the hunt.
 The president spent quiet Sunday. Three weeks ago the railroads planned iI*to run excursions into Glenwood Springs to-day, but the plan was discouraged by
