Caldwell, Idaho, March 6.-The grand jury which has been Investigating the assassination of former Governor Steu- nenberg made it's report to Judge Smith this afternoon. Judge Smith withheld the names of the persons indicted. It is stated, however, that the six men under arrest and detained in the state penitentiary at Boise are included in the indictments, and that they will be arraigned before Judge Smith to-mor- row. It is believed a special train will be used to bring them here from Boise, as the officers fear that an attempt up on the life of Harry Orchard and Steve Adame may be made if an opportunity is offered.

 St. Petersburg, March 6.-A special dispatch from Algeciras to-day says that Germany has accepted the Russian proposition that the control of the forca for the policing of Morocco be entrust- ed to France and Spain jointly, as the basis for an agreement.
 Algeciras, Spain, March 6.-Reporfs are in circulation tonight relative to further developments in the police question before the conference on Mo- roccan reforms. Austria, it is under stood, has prepared a proposition fav- bring the German view. It is, however, possible tha tthis will not be presented to the conference, the German. dele-s gates expressing the opinion that it des not sufficiently support their conc tention.
 Considerable speculation prevails con, cerning the attitude of the United States. Both the British and the French delegation are inclined to the belief that America will soon break her pres ent silence. The French delegates even suggest that the United States should instruct It's dlegates to declare openly in favor of the French proposal if they aret satisfied that these proposals offer the proper guarantees for the maintenance of the equality of cornmer- cial rights. Such an event following on the action of the Mediterranean powers yesterday might, the Frenchmen argue, mean the difference between failur or success of the conference.
 Italys abstention from a definite dec laration also causes remark in the same circles, where Marquiw Visconti venos- ts.'s inaction is regarded as being based upon desire not to depart from neI- trality in order that Italy may be iii a better position from which to endeavor to effect conciliation.

Washington, Oct. 27-The devas-

the administration the pressing nee

With the great rivers made navfgable

railroad bridges were down and
tracks rendered impossible by de-
bris, the natural avenues would fur

alone in cases of such emergency
would the advantage Of
such communication be seen. It. is
pointed out here that water rates
would be far more to equalize freight
rates than any otherAagency.
Costing only onessixth as much to

HALLOWEEN FESTIVITIES.

The Halloween season, almost at
hand, takes one back TO the days
when all made merry on that occa-
sion. Halloween means All Halow
Even and there was a time when it
was one of the most wildly observed
of all holidays. After. time the OBJ
Seryance OF this day almost entirely
disappeared and none but the child

people have learned that Halloween
is a time for rejoicing. On this even
ing many entertainments are given.
The leading idea respecting Halo
we'ep is that it is the time of all
others when supernatural influences
prevail. 1t is a night set apart for
the universal walking about of spir

SHORTHAND WRITERS MAY

Typewriter eleeraphore Exchanges to be
Established in the Big Office Buildings
and Hotels in the Principal Cities of the
Country.

New York, Oct 27.-Plans now un-
.er way will make it necessary for
business men to depend upon private
stenographers or typewriters- Cen
trail typewriting exchanges, to which
letters can be dictated over the telei
phone circuit and returned for sigma
fure in few minutes, are to be es-
established in large Office buildings
and hotels.
Such scheme has been made prac-
tical by means of the telegraphone,
which not only makes a perfect re-
production of the human voice, but
also records everything that passes
over the ordinary telephone These
records are stored upon a thin steel
wire or disc and can be reproduced
an indefinite number of times or re-
moved when there rs a further use
for them.
Each of the central exchanges will
have a4number of telegEa phones and
a STAFF of typewriter experts and
trained linguists. When the business
man or the guest in a large hotel
wishes. to dictate he will pick up the
receiver. of his telephone and ask to

isn't the latter by far the more eco

as much as the higher priced. In

this matter than elsewhere. The quail

not necessary to breed pure thorough

double the cost? l think the latter

MECHANICAL BOXER.

Connecticut Mans Invention u Nov
city with Good Points.
Sparring partners are no longer nee
essary to boxers or prize fighters in
training, for Charles Lindsey of 90 Glen
street, New Britain, Conn, has invent
ed mechanical boxer that hops about
with more agility than man and de-
livers as great a variety of as swiftly
delivered blows as the most expert
enced of sparrers.
The great advantage that this device
possesses over the living boxer is that
it never wearies, cannot be knocked
out and. never loses its temper. It
delivers straight leads and counters
and varies these with an occasional up
per cut which comes at the most I'M
expected moments. 1t does not give
any warning of what kind of blow it
is about to deliver, for the familiar
backward jerk of the best of boxers
Is entirely absent from the perform
ance. Nor can its opponent dodge its
blows by side stepping, for on each
side of him Is a trapdoOr connected
with the base Of the automaton In
such way as to make it swing around
and follow the boxer as soon as the
latter steps to one side.
The mechanical boxer is operated by
an electric motor. which works pull
leys and crank shafts connected with
spring plungers, which make the arms
move independently and with lifelike
action.
First one then the other arm comes
into action, but they do not alternate
with any regularity. for an irregular
cam SO vafies their motion that the
opponent Cannot judge which arm will
strike mkt. The body OF the automa-
ton m6Ves from side to side and back
wardfand forward under the control OF
an Irregular cam, and this makes the
bbws land in different places in
post unexpected way.
The speed with which the blows are
delivered can be regulated by the box
err: IL he be an expert he may make
it rain blows as fast as he can manage
them; II he be novice the blows may
be made to come slowly. The arms
end in gloves and are fitted with many
springs, which enable the boxer to
ward or blows without injury to him
self.

In order to allow the sun tc; pene-
trate to and aid the ripening of late
grapes it Is often advisable late in
the season to lessen the leafy shade of
the vine. L. Fl. Bailey recommends
that this should be done by removing
the leaves from the center Of the vines,
and not by cutting away the canes.
In this way only those leaves are re-
moved which are injurious. and as
much leaf surface as possible is left
to perform the autumn duty of laying
up food material for the spring. The
removal Of leaves should not be ex-
cessive, and If considerable, should be
gradual. otherwise there is danger of
sunburn. 1t il best, first, to remove
the leaves from below the fruit. This
allows free circulation OF the air and
penetration OF the suns rays, which
warm the soil and are reflected upon
the fruit. This Is generally sufficient,
and in any case only the leaves In the
center OF the vine. and especially those
which are beginning to turn yellow.
should be removed.
