tendance will be very large. Promin-
ent republicans of the territory have
gathered here in anticipation of IA
warm contest over statehood resolu

are here in person, but few proxies
having been filed with the secretary
of the committee for enrolment on

cording to my opinion. went through

Thursday was a freak of wind coming
from the southeast and sweeping over
the city doing great damage to
wharves, harbor and naval stores on

probably will reach $12,500,O00, sixty
percent or more of the wharves and
docking facilities is damaged.

only three deaths and they were ne

fifty-fve miles an hour and was not
of as great force or effect as that OF
1898. There was no tidal wave. The
wind simply forced the water from
the gulf into the city. The damage
could be seen all along the line from
Mobile north to points in Mississippi,
corn and cotton being greatly dam
aged.
c. s. Clayton, a Pullman conductor
of the train, made the following state
ment: "The damage cannot be told

Mobile yesterday morning the water
was sweeping into the city from the
gulf and the wind was still blowing

water front the water stood from four

SHAW CAUTIONS BANKERS.
Public Moneys Must BE Used Where

Secretary Shaw made public a cir.
cular letter to all national banks and
d~epositaries which says in effect that
he expects public n in the de-
positary banks to be used In the COM
munities where 1t is deposited and not
loaned through brokers and other
agents in New York for speculative
purposes. The letter Is as follows: .

WILL DIE ON GRAVE.
Italian Lover to Keep Pact with
Sweetheart.

Italian Lover to Keep Pact with
Sweetheart.
A dramatic scene occurred IN the
French line pier in New York, just be-
fore the steamer La Province left for
Havre. Among the passengers was
Luigi Contranrini, "a years Of age.
who is bound for his old hon in Loo
CO, province Of Lombardi, Italy, to
keep a suicide pact to die OF his sweet
hearts grave.
Antonio Co%ntanrini. a brother of
the passenger, created a scene and
afterwards told his brothers story. He
said Luigi became betrothed to jose
phine Ballitini, a girl in his native
town. Her parents opposed the
match, preferring a Weather sutton,
and Luigi, with his sweetheart's prom
Use to keep her faith, came to this
country to seek q fortune. He estab-
lished himself in eayer Okla, where
he secured a farm. Then he wrote for
Joseuphine to come, but she replied
she could not; that her parents for
babe; that she intended to commit
suicide, and that she expected Luigi to
join her in death. The news that the
girl had carried out her fol-
lowed, and Luigi sold his property at
Beaver and started for Italy to kill
himself on the girls grave. Luigi
sailed on the LaProvince.

SimpIiaed Smelling Boom.

Close on the heels of President Roose-
velt's official Endorsement of the reform
ed spelling favored by the simpllhed
spelling board, it was announced that
Rev. DR.. Walter w. Skeat, the noted
Anglo-Saxon scholar of Cambridge, Eng
land, and DR.. James A. Murray, editor OF
the Oxford English dictionary. had joined
the ranks of spelling reform. Andrew
Carnegie, whose money ndoWed the work
of the board, expressed delight, but not
surprise at the Presidents attitude ana
thought that this would settle the adop-
ton of spelling reform by the majority
of the English-speaking race. The spell
ing board has received a great mass OF
inquiries for lists and primers of the nec
spelling rules. Nevertheless the press OF
England and largely of this country has
ridiculed numerically the Presidents &C
tion.. President Eliot of Harvard said the
new style did not appeal to him and he
thought it would be a long time before it
would become popular. John Wanamaker
has adopted the new spelling for his ad-
vertising and likewise S. Plaut & Co. of
Newark and the editors of a number Of
trade papers. Prof. Matthews calls atten-
ton to the fact that the board does not
attempt such radical changes as newspa-
per articles would imply, as they have
gone no further than the 300 words listed.
Also to the fact that Editors Smith of
the Century Dictionary, Editor Funk Of
the Standard and the editor of Webster's
are all members of the simpliied spelling
board.

INDIANS NOT DYING OUT.

Agent at Pine Ridge Says Race Show
Healthy Increase.
Mai. ohn r. Brennan, Indian agent
at Pine Ridge, says hat the report
that the Indians, as a nation, are dy-
ing out, is not true at Pine Ridge.
Mai. was in Deadwood In at
tendance at United States court. Inc
Indian population on Pine Ridge is
now 6,727, an increase Of about 800
over the census of four years ago. An
other fact which show that the In
dams, racially, are not becoming ex-
tinct, is hat the greatest mortality BY
far is found among the infant popula-
ton. When Indian mothers learn to
care for their children, during infancy
and early childhood, the race will
then show a good increase. The belief
that tuberculosis is carrying OF the
red men in great numbers is another
theory that Maj. Brennan does no
find borne out at his agency.
On Pine Ridge about 1900 or 1,70C
able-bodied Indians are dropped from
the ration list in the spring, and not
put on again until the winter makes Il
difficult for even an able-bodied Lie
to keep soul and body together. o.
this number 500 or 900 are men,, all G.
whom find work, and for the warn
season actually support the womer
and children dependent upon them.

Insurance Rates Cut OF.

The first decision rendered by ex-Presi-
dent Grover Cleveland as referee tor the
big three life insurance companies VIII
prevent English policy holders from con-
tinuing to get a reduction on account OF
the income tax law, and will result i'll q
big saving to the companies. According
to the English law, those who were sub
ject to the payment of an income tax are
allowed to deduct the amount paid for
them for life insurance premiums or Eng
lish policies, but not on American policies.
Consequently, the American companies
have been in the habit of absorbing this
tax by granting a rebate. Mr.. Cleveland
holds that this can no longer be done un-
der the new rebate lazy. One effect will
be to curtail the amount of foreign BUSH
