When Cafe Dropped Into Hole.
Quite, Mont.-With crash that
could be heard half mile away, a
house dropped 80 feet into the shaft
of the Phoenix Mining company on
Wednesday morning, in the rear Of
the city hall
Five men were beneath the building

and Will Owsley had narrow escapes,
being the last to get from under when
the house dropped into the hole.
The building was the kitchen of
the June Cafe, and when it dropped
it took with it ham, soup, potatoes and
eggs, which caromed against the sides
of the hosting shaft and which lies
today in one .conglomerate mass in
the big hole. The hole is nearly a
hundred feet square and in the center
hosting shaft took the dirt from
the tunnels which are being driven
under the streets.

FORTY WOMEN INJURED
IN A CLUB ROOM FIRE
Panic Follows Breaking Out of Flames
In Lotus Club, Chicago, and Many
Excited Women Leap From

Chicago.-Forty women were in

day in the building at 255 Wabash
avenue. The first floor was occupied
by the Story & Clark Piano company
and the three upper floors by the
Lotus Lunch club, patronized exclu.
sively by women.
When the flames were discovered
200 women, including the employees,
were in the place, and at the first cry
Of fire panic ensued. A number of
women leaped from the windows of
the second and third stories. BY far
the greater number, however, rushed
to the fire escapes. These were filled
in a few second with a struggling
mass of women, making desperate ef-
forts to climb down. Several of them
lost their holds and fell to the street
and others were pushed Off -
The flames started in the basement
and ran up an elevator shaft with
terrific speed, cutting off several wo-
men in the front part of the building.
Two-thirds of these, despite the warn
ings of the spectators, leaped to the
ground. The others VINO remained

Mine Exploded by conspirators, Kill.

Presidential Carriage, and In

Guatemala City, Guatemala.-Es-
trada Cabrera, president of Guate-
mala, narrowly escaped assassination
on Tuesday. He, left his private resi-
dence at 1880 in the morning for his
customary drive, accompanied by his
staff. While passing along Seventh
avenue an explosion, at first supposed
to have been caused by bomb, oc-
Cured, killing the horses attached to
the presidential carriage, wounding
the coachman and injuring several
staff officers, including General Orel-
lena, the chief of staff. The president,
who was not injured, displayed great
presence of mind.
Alighting from the carriage, he in
spected the surroundings and then re-
turned on foot to his residence.
A careful examination showed that
the explosion had been caused by q
mine. The conspirators dug a tunnel
from one of a group of houses rented
by man named Rafael Rodil, placed
explosives under the roadway and
connected them by wire with a bat
terry in Rodels house, and from there
discharged the mine Many suspects
have been arrested Peace prevails

PRESIDENT SHOWS
A WARL|KE SPIRIT
Delivers a Characteristic Ad-
dress Before Society of the
Army of the Potomac.
"Seek the Peace Granted to Him Who.
Will Wrong No Man, and VIII Not
Submit to Wrong In Return"
Says President Roosevelt.

Washington.-Pre Roosevelt
in an address at the unwilling of the
statue of General George B. McClel
Ian by the Society of the Army Of the
Potomac on Thursday, characterized
as weakness the desire for peace I'm
less it could be obtained on the right
terms. He would have none of the
so-called peace if it were merely IAN
other name for self-indulgence, for
sloth, for timidity, for the avoidance
of duty"
The man who would do the best for
the country in peace, the president
declared, is the man who at need
will do well in war.
Seek the peace that comes to the
just man armed" said Mr.. Roosevelt
"who will dare to defend his rights
If the need should arise. Seek the
peace granted to him who will wrong
no man and will not submit to wrong
in return. Seek the peace that comes
to us as the peace of righteousness
the peace of justice. Ask peace by
your deeds and your powers warrant
you in asking it, and do not put your
self in the position to crave it as
something to be granted or withheld
at the within of another"

Solid Shot Fired Into Portland House
From Steamer Costa RIGA.
Portland, Ore.-A six-inch solid
shot, three inches in diameter, buried
itself in the side of an empty house
at the corner of Fifteenth and Petty
grove streets Tuesday afternoon, af-
ter narrowly missing a planning MILL
and frightening into CONSERVATION the
men, women and children in the neigh
borhood The source of the shot,
which was one such as is used in life
saving apparatus ON shipboard, was
mystery until tonight, when it was
ascertained that 1t was fired from
cannon on board the San Francisco
and Portland steamer Costa RIGA.
Government regulations require the
firing of this cannon once in three
months. The officers were complying
with this regulation, when one of
the guy ropes broke, allowing the
muzzle of the gun to veer around
toward the city.

MAY CUT WHEAT CROP.
Backward Spring Has Greatly De
Iayed Seeding in the North.


ST. Paul northern
Minnesota, North Dakota and Mani
toba, and in some sections of South
Dakota seeding has been greatly de-
layed by the inclemency of the wealth
er which has prevailed during April
and so far during the present month.
Successive snowstorms in North Da.
kota have left the ground in such
condition that 1t has been impossible
to put the seeders to work. Probably
not more than third of the usual
acreage has been seeded in Manitoba.
In North Dakota, northern Minnesota
and northern South Dakota the per-
centage has been somewhat greater,
but is still far below normal.
However farmers feel only little
apprehension. The ground is full of
moisture, but few days of sunshine
will put it in good condition for
planting.
Grain growers are confident that II
the bulk of the seeding can be done
by the last of this week or the middle
of next they will have no reason to
fear reduced crop.

Sensation by His Actions.

Pastor of Fashionable Church Causes
. Sensation by His Actions.
New York.-Members of the fash
ionable st. Georges Episcopal church
at Hampstead, l.. l., were astonished
Thursday when they learned that
their pastor, the Rev. Jere X. Cooke,
had departed, and that Miss Floretta
Whaley also had left her home and
had written letters saying she would
not return. The Rev. Mr.. Cooke has
been married for five years. Miss
Whaley is an orphan, II years of age,
whose father just before his death
gave her into the special charge of
Mr.. Cooke. Miss Whaley has a for
tune said to amount to $125, 900, which
came to her from her fathers estate.
A large number of the minister's
friends believe that he has lost his
mind. Three years ago, with Mrs.
Cooke and a party of Sunday school
children, he was in a trolley car COLI
sion, and has been "a nervous wreck
ever since.
