Report comes from Chloride that the hammer drills now being used in the Samoan mine are entirely successful. Heretofore a miner could make but twelve inches per shift with @ single jack. In three and one.half shifts one man with a hammer drill drove 11T feet, another over eight feet and a third man the same distance. More ground could have been broken but the muckers were unable to handle the dirt. It is expected that during the month more ground will be broken with small force of men than was broken in three months heretofore with much larger force. The mine is also improving greatly iu the amount of ore blocked out. It is proposed to begin driving the cross drift, which is destined to cut the Samoan and other veins at depth of nearly 800 feet.

CRUISER LAUNCHED.
The Washington Glides Into Water at
Philadelphia-Is Sister Ship
of Tennessee.

Philadelphia, March 20.-The arm
ored cruiser Washington was sue
cessfully launched shortly after noon
Saturday at the yards of the New York
Shipbuilding company. Guests from
the state of Washington. the national
capital, New York, Philadelphia and
other cities, including United States
naval officials and congressman, at
tended the launching. The event sig
nalized two innovations in the launch
ing of a warship. The Washington
was the first naval vessel to be
launched in the United States by
means of an automatic trigger de-
vice, which obviated the customary
saving of the sole piece at the bow.
The cruiser was also the first war
vessel to be launched from beneath a
glass-covered shed from shipyard in
the east Miss Helen Stewart Will
son, daughter of former United States
Senator John L. Wilson. of Washing
ton, christened the cruiser.
The Washington is a sister ship of
the cruiser Tennessee, launched at
Cramps shipyards last December.

PRESIDENT NAMES JUDGES.
C. c. Kohlsaat Promoted to Circuit
Bench--Charges Against Jurist
Declared Unfounded.

Washington, March 20.-President
Roosevelt Saturday indicated JUICE
Christian c. Kohlsaat by appointing him
United States circuit judge of the
Northern district of Illinois, known as
the Seventh district. The president
thus disposes of the charges of NAL
administration recently fled against
Judge Kohnsaat.
Solomon H. Bethea, now United
States district attorney for the North
ern district of Illinois, was appointed
to be United States district judge to
fill the place vacated by the promo
ton of Judge Kohlsaat.
Kenesaw M. Lands also received a
federal appointment at the hands of
the president. He was named for the
newly-created position of additional
judge of the same district
The decision to name these three
appointees came after a conference
between Senators Cullom and Hopkins
and Speaker Cannon. The charges
were gone over, together with the re-
port of Assistant Attorney Genera!
Robb, who was sent to Chicago by At
torney General Moody last week TO
investigate the accusations that Judge
Kohnsatt had appointed relatives and
court officials to positions of receivers
of bankrupt concerns.
The report of Mr.. Robb recited the
facts in the case under examination,
and declared the appointments were
not such as to uphold the accusations.
The president took the same view of
the matter, and sent the nominations
to the senate Saturday. The appoint
ments were all confirmed.
Kenesaw M. Lands, the third fed
eral appointee, is a brother of Con-
gressmen Charles B. and Frederick
Lands, of Indiana.

HAY HAS FIT OF WEAKNESS
SUDDENLY STRICKEN ILL WHILE
BOARDING STEAMER.
Condition Not Regarded as Alarming
as Vessel Leaves on Sched-
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
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.
The secretary had come up from
Washington Friday accompanied by
Mrs. Hay, his daughter, Mrs. James w.
Wadsworth, Jr.; Clarence Hay, his son,
and Henry Adams, personal friend.
The whole party went to the steamer
Saturday, although only Mr.. and Mrs.
Hay and Mr.. Adams were to sail.
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 stagger, 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
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
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.

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 a 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 a
most prosperous year. There is room
COR 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
a letter written by Mr.. Geo. M. Girls
void, of Red Deer, Alta, formerly of
Grever, Montana, written on the I'd
of January, is as follows:
81 am located one and one-ha1f miles
from beautiful lake ten miles long.
where there is church, school, three
stores, creamery and two post Offices.
The fine stock, both. cattle. tcows 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 fax
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 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 at
depth of from to % feet, and lots of
open ever flowing springs
Telegraphic advices from Medicine
Hat say that seeding has commenced
at Medicine Hat, Lethbridge, and 9th
er points. At the former place the
temperature moderated gradually I'M
til on the 10Th the maximum was As
and the minimum 26. Thermometer
readings since then have been as fol-
lows: Goth, AZ and So; 21st, 81 and
81; 22d, Sc and 80: 23d, 4S and 40;
oath, 48 and &c.
During the last few days in Febru-
airy considerable blowing was done
near Lethbridge. p A. Pulley, a re-
cent arrival from Montana, plowed
and narrowed Is acres and E. Lali-
borty about the same amount Rev.
Coulter White has also been harrow
ing his farm. All report the ground
frost free and in excellent condition.
Bricklaying has also begun in town.
At Hartney, further east, on the 25th
of February the sun was warm and
bright, wheeled carriages were in use
and the plowed fields look as if they
are ready for the press drills There
is every appearance that spring has
arrived. but farmers do not wish to be
deceived by appearances and conse-
quently have not commenced to use
their bluestone and seed wheat.
