NEW PROPOSITION TO-
 BE MADE BY
 JAPAN
Indemnity Waived And Prospects For Peace Are Much
 Broghter

1 halien at redemption price to be fix ed by an unbiased commission, there i is reason to believe that this ought to supply a new and promising basis for the continuation of negotiations.
 Creates Sensation in Portsmouth.
 PORTSMOUTH, Aug. 2s-Tomorrow morning Komura, acting under instruc- tions received from Tokio as the result of today's meeting of the elder states men under the direct presidency of the Emperor of Japan, will submit to Witte a new basis of a compromise, that is firmly believed tonight will in- sure peace.
 The revelation contained in the Asso- ciated Press exclusive announcement today, that Japan had already inform ed Emperor Nicholas through Am bassador Meyer, that Japan is ready to waive the question of indemnity and submit the price to be paid for the nor thern half of Sakhalien to the judg- ment of a mixed commission, is the sole topic of conversation. Japan s back down is the main issue, and the announcement has been the sensation of the day.
 It has met denials high and low. The Japanese declined to affirm it, and the Russians said they had no confirmation. All hands admitted that if Japan took this position it was found out from under Nicholas. Everything will depend upon the form in which the proposals are submitted.
 Should the renunciation be coupled with other propositions so that Russia could claim it is still only a disguised demand for tribute, the gulf might once more be narrowed but not bridged.

LIGHTNING STRIKES
 AND KILLS A BOY
Robert Howard of Date Greek Falls a Victim to The Deadly
 Electric Bolt

As nearly as can be ascertained from the scant information available the son of J. O. Howard had left the ranch for an errand to Congress. and that at the time there was no sign of storm. He had been seen by one or more trav- elers going the other way, and before the storm broke was making his way to Congress.
 Nothing is to be learned as to how the stroke caused the death of the boy nor as to the condition of the remains when found. Repeated statements as to the accidental death of young How ard among those who were certain of the facts led to the belief that the rumOr was based upon fact, but no d. rect information was obtainable.
 Information received at midnight confirms the report of the untimely de- mise of the unfortunate lad.

PERISH IN SINKING
 SHIP

FERNANDINA, Fla, Aug. 2S-Twen- ty men, constituting all but two of ficers and the crew of the American steamship Peconic, Captain Jones, bound from Philadelphia to New Or leans, were drowned by the sinking of that vessel off the coast of Florida to- day.
 The disaster resulted from a fierce gale that ragged along the coast during the night and early this morning. Lash ed by the storm, the immense waves struck the vessel with terrific force, at 12.3O this morning. The impact com ing just as the vessel was m aking a turn. the cargo shifted, and the vessel leaned over and sank immediately. Only two aboard, an Italian and Spa niard, succeeded in gaining the lifeboat and saving themselves. They reached Amelia Beach about noon after a ter rible experience. At the time of the disaster the ship was about 200 miles northeast of here. She had aboard l500 tons of coal.

IN A COSTA RIGA
 JAIL

WASHINGTON, Aug. 2s-A cable gram received at the state depart ment from Minister Merry, dated at San Jose, Costa Rico, today says that Albers, the American citizen who was arrested in Nicaragua, is in comfort able quarters, and is allowed to receive friends in jail. He has retained two lawyers. Merry adds that he will see Albers has a fair trial.
 Albers resided in Jalapa, in the dis trict of New Sebogia, and it is charg- ed that he opposed the local authorities in their attempt to serve writ.
 In his excitement it is alleged that Albers insulted the president of the republic. The authorities of Jalapa commenced a criminal suit against him, and in the course of the proceedings caused his removal to headquarters in the district where Albers will be tried.

News reached Prescott last night that Robert Howard, the 15-year-old son of J. O. Howard, was killed at an early hour yesterday by lightning while riG ing from the home of his parents on Date creek to Congress. It seems that while en route he met with the storm that struck Prescott at about the noon hour, and that when a few miles from Congress a stroke of lightning killed the horse and boy also.
 Inquiry about town among those who are well acquainted with the residents on Date creek developed that Mir. How ard is a resident there, but nothing de- finite was to be learned as to the sud- den death of the young boy. All the reports agreed that the bodies of the boy and the animal he had ridden were found after the storm by traveller.

BOLT IF LIGHTNING STRIKES CHURCH
 STEEPLE Catholic Edifiee Hit By The Electric
 Current Hole Is Bored But The Damage Proves
 Slight

At few minutes after the noon hour yesterday the steeple of the Ca tholie church was unfortunately made the landing point for a bolt of light ming, and as a result the upper portion of the highest place on the building is now damaged to an extent that may cause quite an expense to repair. While the noon hour thunderstorm lasted but few moments in all, it was severe from the start, and the rain fell in torrents for about five minutes.
 During this time several lightning flashes were seen to strike apparently close within the city limits, and the last one was seen to strike in the vicinity of the church. Those who from dOorways were watching the storm, and waiting a chance to go their way, noticed the bolt, and va riOus predictions were made as to where the lightning might have struck.
 ''I told you SO" was the comment made when it was later learned that the tall steeple of the Catholic church had been made to suffer.
 As is often common in such attacks of lightning, the manner in which it damaged the steeple is phenomenal. The point of contact was very near the apex of the high point of the church, but instead of splintering the entire steeple it seemed to have bored a hole, probably as large as an ordinary man's hat. Below this spot a slivered strip toward the base that scarcely tore the outer covering from it's surface was all the damage to be seen from the out side. It was first thought that the bolt may have passed downward into the church, and possibly damaged the interior, but it seems that the first con- tact was all that there is any record of.
 The bolt struck the steeple on the west side near the joining point to the

ST. PETERSBURG, August 29, 3:15 a. m.-The Associated Press dispatch from Portsmouth, declaring that Presi- dent Roosevelt was authorized sev- eral days ago in behalf of Japan to waive all claim to indemnity or reim- bursement for the cost of the war, and cede back ito Russia the northern half of the Island of Sakhalien, leaving the redemption' price to arbitration by fixed commission, was received too late here last night to reach the general public, but its significance was instant ly recognized in quarters where it be- came known.
 There is every reason to believe, judging from official expressions per sistently given out by the foreign office since the beginning of the ne gOtiatiOns at Portsmouth, that this proposition by Japan to waive the question of indemnity goes far toward removing the last, and according to of fcial explanation, the only stumbling block in the way of peace.
 The foreign office has said that ev- cry disputed point between Russia and Japan, with the exception of the pay ment of an indemnity, has been prac- tically arranged on basis satisfactory to both sides, but that Russia would never pay an indemnity.
 If the latest proposals of Japan means that she valves all claims to indemnity of any kind or description, giving up all idea of reimbursement for the expenses of the war in any guise whatever, and in place thereof is prepared to accept for restoration to Russia of the northern half of Sak

 RAILROAD WRECK

WILLETTS, Cal, Aug. 2S-A wreck in which four men were killed and two perhaps fatally injured took place this afternoon on the logging spur of the California Northwestern railroad above Sherwood junction, which is five miles north of Willetts.
 The logging engine was coming down steep grade, and got beyond control. She leaped the track, with the imprisoned engineer Lewis and three of the logging crew beneath, and the escaping steam cooked them. The others were injured the same way.

 The police are now working on the theory that Rogers and his wife are still in Albany or near at hand. There is nothing to show why they should abandon their children deliberately. Letters found demonstrate that the children were tenderly cared for.
 Advices from Washington confirm the belief that Rogers is viee-presi- dent of the Congressional Correspond enee Club. Thus far nothing has de- veloped to indicate why Rogers is fleeing from justice. One theory of the police is that perhaps finding themselves without means they commit ted suicide

Rev. E. B. Taft offciated at the funeral, and the cortege was accompanied by large number of people, all of whom had been personal acquaintances and friends of the deceased.
 Stanley had been a stone mason, hay ing worked on nearly all of the build ings in the city since the big fire, and was a contributor, so it is said, to both the Catholic school and to the church building at the time of their construc- tion, having been employed at his trade on both structures. Having been ill for many months preceding his death he was without funds at the time when he most needed money, and his many personal friends looked after his wants.

We respectfully suggest that our
Legislature take the matter of a
State Park up before the state tim
Der is disposed Of. If the propos-
ition for any reason could not be
handled by the state, the National
government would undoubtedly
take hold of it if the state relin-
pushed it's timber land, and we
would have a park for all time.
With the threatened destruction
of our immense bodies of timber,
and the rapid settlement of the
state, a strong and early effort
ought to be made to preserve at
least one of our most beautiful
spots while it is possible to do SO.
