KENTUCKY AND
 ILLINOIS SETTLE
 THEIR DIFFERENCES
Trouble Over QuafantiVe Re-
 guIatiOnS is AdguStGd

Cairo, H., Aug 17.-Threatened trou- ble over quarantine between the health authorities of Illinois and Ken lucky was setted today. when Dr. A. Mccormick of the Kentucky board of health came to Cairo and held a con ference with Dr. George Thomas Pal mer of the Illinois board. The griev- ance of Kentucky was that the Illinois officers invaded the State of Kentucky to board trains and put off passengers not provided with certificates on Ken lucky soil. The grievance of Illinois was that some of the smaller Ken lucky towns issued health certificates for consideration to any one who might apply without regard to wheth- CT they were from infected points or not Dr. Mccormick and Dr. Palmer went to Wickliffe and in conference with the health officers and many others of that place it was agreed that the Illinois officers could continue to board trains in Kentucky on condition that no one be put off in that state. The Illinois officers agreed to send the passengers through to the north who are not provided with certificates. Dr. Mccormick agreed to restrict the irdiscriminate issuance of health cer- tificates by Kentucky towns.

ALANOGORDO STRIKE IS CALLED OFF
 BY THE MEN
Settlement Comes Win New
 Conditions on E.P.&S.W.

Fl Paso, Aug. 17.-Word comes from Alamogordo that the machinists and boilermakers of the eastern division of the Southwestern have called off their strike of 15 months standing. The strike virtually began IS months ago, but there were three months during which a sort of armed truce was effec- tive. SiN
 At the office of Superintendent Os ter this morning it was said that no announcement had been received from the strikers that the fight had been called off.
 IL was February IA, 1904. when the strike was called. An agreement was reached after a week. and the boiler makers and macninists went back to work. On May 16, the Nor theastern took back several men whom the un- ion had ordered discharged, and the union men walked out.
 Since that time the work in the Ala mogordo shops has been done under no union agreement. Both union and non-uniOn men have been employed, and the strike had been declared in effect by the leaders of the union un- til the first of this week, when it is said that the strike was called off.

UNCLE SAM BUYING ABROAD
Eight ships Purchased In China For
 the Philipplnes.

It will surprise a good many old fashioned Republicans to know that under our protective tariff system even the Chinese can beat us building ships And what will cause greater surprise is the fact that this government con tIactcd with the Whampoa Shipbuild lng company, whose yards are about twelve miles from Canton, China, tc construct ciglt ships for service in the lc5u.'' possessions of the United States in the orient. During the past ycac these eight vessels have been launched and delivered at Manila. In reporting this Ecws the Washington Post says:
 The eight boats launched were l5) fee, long. of lO-J horsepower. and their con tracts He'd for a speed Of twelve knots m hour. Some Cf them developed a speed or one--iNth of knot better than this over the;r tr!; 1 courses. They cost the government in TO case less than $500 each.
 Although Chinese belp is used a. wha-n- poa wherever available, it is said that the ships could Le constructed here at tho same ccst.
 Captain Harry strue. formerly of the
  vised the building af these ships and saw that they were delivered at Manila. He was acting under Commander James Helm, captain of 'he port of Manila IL Is said that nc.hing concerning the launching of these vessels appeared in the Canton newspapers because request had been made to ref ain from making any thing public about the American ships at the Whanpoa var Is.
 l. can hardly te possible that. as the Post says. the ships could have been contracted for bere at the same cost. for to give this large contract to a for e;gA firm and thus deprive our ship yards and work nen of the profit and work is not beliavable unless the price was less.
 It is well known that the shipbuild ing trust and the steel trust have for years held mp Uncle Sam for building ships and armor plate. and if the price asked for the building of these eight ships was unreasonable the admins tration did perfectly right in going elsewhere. But why the secrecy? Why not be open and aboveboard in the matter? Did our Republican oficials fcav the trusts or the people?

Mining Man and Wife Sign
 an Agreement

Prescott, Aug. 17.-An instrument of more than passing interest to the peo- pie of Prescott was placed On file with the county recorder vest sfday. it be ing an agreement between Charles F. Goddard, superintendent of the God dard Mining company, and his wife, Kate B. Goddard, JO forever live scpa- rate and apart from each other.
 The agreement offers no suggestion as to the cause foT this sudden sepa- ration. and is drawn m ths usual ITO fessional manner. stating tho terms under which both are wiling to a1"de by this document.
 Both Superintendent GCdda -d and his wife are well .,nown n Prescott, where they have resided for several years. Both have many warm friends in the community, and this strange manner of settling their differences will, no doubt, prove a surprise to all Since getting into mining as a busi- ness. Superintendent Goddard has made a decided success in his vent ures. and is now pushing work on a group of claims that promise well.
 He was east during the summer. re turning here few days ago. While in the east it is understood Mrs. God dard lived in Los Angeles, where she now is so far as can be learned. The

ALBUQUERQUE WELCOME ID
 MARX MARK SMITH
ArlzORa'S Delegate EaS En
 Route to Chicago

Delegate Marcus A. Smith, who rep resents the territory of Arizona in the United States congress was in Albu- querque Sunday morning for a short time. and received quite a lively re- ception from his friends and admirers in Albuduerque. MT. Smith came in on No. 2, and left later for Chicago says the Journal.
 Mark" still stoutly maintains that he wants separate statehood for Arizo- na. but it is said that his attitude on the question of Separate statehood or none" is not as belligerent as it has been in times past.
 While Mir. Smith was eating break fast, ex-Delegate Rodey and others i'm proved the opportunity to adorn his section in the Pullman with various and sundry joint statehood emblems, devices ard printed articles, including several copies of the morning Journal containing MT. Rodey's defense of this territory against the misrepresenta- tions of William E. Curtis. A huge joint statehood sign was pinned across the seat. and several joint statehood buttons were surreptitiously fastened on the back of the unsuspecting dele gate.
 The section belonging to Mrs. Ger trude Robinson, a friend of the dele gate, was similarly adorned.
 Mark" hardly knew how to take the joke at first, but soon warmed up to the humor of the situation. Mir. Smith is a warm personal friend of Delegate Rodey ir, spite of their polit- ical differences.

 ager or field C-pta.a of a bail club" President Hart os the Chicago Ma tion2ls, i2-.ctor Of the foul strike" rule, recently .crcrkeI. The disad- vantages under which he labors are ob- vious. In the first place, if the pitcher goes wrong. loses control or anything of that kind, he has to delay the game greatly to come in and talk it over or to substitute another box artist. Be sides that. he is not in the game as much as the infielder, nor is he in a position to keep up the spirits of his men to the extent he would be if he played an Infeld position.
 While aI players are cautioned con- stantly about questioning decision of an umpire. whenever they think he makes a mistake it Is pretty hard for them not to stop proceedings long enough to argue a little bit. Now. if the manager or captain Is an out fielder. to argue with the umpire he must stop everything while he runs in from the outfeld The umpire's orders are explicit When a player runs in from his position at him, tending to show up the official to the crowd, then send him to the bench without question. An infelder can walk about the diamond. not too close to the um- pire. apparently talking to some of his men. and at the same time get away with a lot of things talked at the arOi- trator; but, as soon as a man has to

Why the Belr Eats Crickets.

An Indian tradition says that when
the fat bears get ready to crawl away
to their denS in creviceS Of Lodges n
under the trunks of big trees which
have blown down. they go and scratch
open several ant nests and lap up the
busy inSects-sand and all-for the
purpose Of having something in their
stomachs to keep them warm all win
ter, after which they capture and eat
two dozens Of fat crickets.
The purpose Of taking crickets for
dessert is claimed to be due to the eff
fects which the insects have upon the
fur of the animals. We are told that
there is nothing like the bodies OF
cricl cts eaten raw for t~hickening up
and giving lustre to fur on hair. Al
ter taking it's cricket capsules, the bear
hides away and does not show itself
again until the next spring.
Du1i ing the dark and cold months the
medic lnal and tonic qualities of the in
sects are absorbed into the torpid cir
eulation Of the bear, resulting in the
heyelt pment Of a very thick coating
Of fur, which shines with a glossy and
almost satiny black when the animal
comes out in the spring. The Indians
Say that because of their eating crick-
cts thu spring pelt Of a bear is worth
nearly fifty per cent. more than it IS
at n other time Of the year.-Ban-

FEVER DEATH IN CUBA.
Mosquitoes From New Orleans Els
CAPPED From Packing Cases.

Mosquitoes From New Orleans Es-
CAPPED From Packing Cases.
Havana, Cuba.-The case of 81. v.
Chilvers, the New Orleans electrician
who was taken to the Las Animas
fever hospital, was diagnosed as yell
low fever. The Spaniard who was
stricken and isolated in the Clerks
Hospital, died there.
There are now two cases Of yellow
fever in the Las Animas Hospital, and
one suspect, a Spanish woman. who
was placed under observation at night.
Permission has been received from
the HEALTH authorities at New York
City to ship the body of A.. Outwater,
who died of yellow fever, to his former
home at Passaic, N. j.. The slight
development of the so-called secondary
cases has, encouraged the belief Of the
yellow fever experts that there will not
be much of a spread of the infection.
1t has developed that the opening of
some cases of electrical apparatus from
New Orleans, La, which were con-
signed to a firm in the Payret Theatre
building, liberated many mosquitoes.
The first person to be attacked by
yellow fever was a member of an
opera company playing at the Payret
Theatre; subsequently the disease at
tackled all electrician employed in the
same building. All Of the other cases
have originated in this vicinity, and
this gives color to the theory that the
mosquitoes from New Orleans carried
the Infection.

of prairie %schooners, the leader Of
which announced that-le and his fell
low-emigrants were going to found a
town, having everything that was
needful and nothing that was unneces-
sary. Eve won't have any waste" he
said; "there isn't a person in our party
who won't do some important duty in
the new town." The Englishman
pointed to an old and feeble man with.

beard. "But that very old man
there" he said; "le can't possibly be
of any use, can he" "Oh, yes" said
