SCHOOL GIRLS SHOULD

indianapolis, Ind, March 5.-"Base-
ball should be such an important part
Of the education of children that ev-

school girl should play the great
American game" said William A.
Stecher, director of physical training
in the public schools of Philadelphia,
who yesterday addressed the confer

Each school should have base
ball club, and the clubs should visit
each others grounds in the fashion
of the professional league, Mr.
Stecher added.

TO strengthening the bodies of emil
dren if their mentality is to improve,
he pointed out, and he declared that

GENERAL STRIKE NOW
ORDERED IN QUAKER CITY

Word was received that nearly all
delivery drivers will strike, leaving
houseLolders to carry groceries,
meats, milk and bread Drivers are
expected to make the morning deliv-
cries today, however.
William Drexler probably was fatal
ly shot by policeman firing at a
crowd that stoned several cars in the
northwest part of the city Crowds
of rufians also attacked cars in other
quarters but no serious damage was
done.
1t was feared that rioting would be-
come general yesterday because many
idle men are in the streets. All po-
licemen and fremen were ordered to
remain on continuous duty. Many
wealthy men reported with automo-
biles for police emergency duty.
While assisting a young woman
across the street last night, Robert
Model was shot in the back by po-
liceman who was endeavoring to dis
perse crowd that had been stoning
cars. His condition is serious.

but the number who adhere to the
order of the Central labor union viii

this morning. City officers estimate
that not more than thirty thousand
men will quit work but union officers
say that twice that number will obey
the call Orchestra players and cab
and auto drivers quit at midnight,
further crippling transportation.
Non-union men also have been
asked to strike in sympathy with the
streetcar men. A proclamation was
issued for a public demonstration in
independence square this afternoon.
The police say they will prevent the
meeting.
The last effort was made yesterday
to bring about a settlement of the
car strike, but it was futile The ty-
biographical union decided not to
strike.

NUMBER 40

ed several important talks between
Colonel Dodge and the Indians.
After the Black Hawk war was
over, and the Sank chief captured,
peace once more returned to Blue
Mounds; and the blockhouse, situated
on the open prairie near the mound
was no longer needed, and in course
of time fell into decay. Colonel
Brigham, the principal mhabitant OF
the fast growing district, carried on
his mines for many years, with great
success.
The Mounds did not become the
metropolis, however. That remained
for the site on which the colonel had
pitched his tent on his early journey
from Fort Winnebago. Early in the
spring of 1897 the Wisconsin terri
torial legislature, having its first
meeting at Belmont, Iowa county, Sc
lected Madison as the capital-then
only paper town." existing on
map and in the brain of James d.
Doty
At Blue Mounds mine there was a
tavern kept by Eben and Mrs. Rose
line Peck, who boarded Brigham's
miners. Being told by a horseback
traveller from Belmont of the seIec-
ton of Madison, Mrs. Peck promptly
travelled from Blue Mounds with an
ox-team in March, accompanied by
her little boy Victor, and erected,
with the help of a man living on the
far shore of Lake Mendoza, a log
house which was intended as a tavern
for the men who were expected to ar
rive from Milwaukee in June, to build
the first capitol. This tavern, called
the Madison House, was the first
dwelling in Madison. Mrs. Peck. who
became one of the best known pio-
neers of Wisconsin, years ago passed
to her reward; but her boy Victor
still lives in this city, one of our
honored citizens.
The old blockhouse at Blue Mounds
was not large; it only covered
quarter of an acre, but that quarter
acre is one of Wisconsin's milestones,
and will be carefully kept by the his
torical society. The outline of the
embankment, which was once sur
mounted by the palisades of the fort,
are still distinctly visible after seven
weight years of exposure to storm.
Just as soon as the weather per-
mits. the society will set up neat cor
ner posts and wire fence around
the little historic patch of land; later.
this will of course be followed by y
more enduring boundary mark, and
one of these days by bronze tablet.

AMERICANS HOPE
FOR INTERVENTION
GENERALS BUSY IN
CONFERENCES BUT SILENT
AS TO RESULTS.

Bluefelds, March 5.-After three
days of secret conferences, there was
yesterday reason to believe that Gen
eral Estrada, leader of the revolution
lists, and his advisers had reluctantly
acquiesced in the demand of the
American residents that a receptive
ear be turned to any proposal of
American intervention which will
guarantee to them the rights, the de-
NAL of which caused the revolution.
The original demands of the revo-
lutionists included the overthrow of
President Zelaya and the restoration
to the people of the constitutional
and common rights of citizens which
it was alleged had been taken from
them under Zelaya.
While Generals Estrada, Diaz and
Rivera and other conferees are silens
concerning the matter, their frequent
calls an Thomas p Moffat, American
consul, who also declined to talk, give
support to this view.
General Chamorros defeat has not
altered the views of the people on the
east coast as to the guarantees that
are necessary to peace. Undoubted-
ly they will demand the fulfillment of
every principle for which the armies
have sought, as President Madriz fire.

HOUSE DEMANDS
PEARY'S PROOFS
REFUSE TO VOTE REWARD TO
EXPLORER UNTIL THEY IN
SPEcT THE RECORD.
PROFESSOR SAYS LIEUTENANT
WENT 10 MILES BEYOND POLE
TO MAKE SURE.

Washington, March 5.-Proofs of
Commander Peary's discovery of the
north pole caused a row in the sub
committee of the house committee on
naval affairs yesterday. Two mem
bers of the National Geographical
society appeared before the commit
tee with copies of Peary's proofs, to
urge the granting of a suitable re-
ward by congress but the committee
declined to receive them in confidence
with the ultimate result that the
committee has made it known that
unless the Peary proofs are forth
coming to the full satisfaction of the
committee every bill for the purpose
of rewarding the discoverer will be
pigeonholed.
Three members of the committee
favored receiving the Peary proofs
without making them public. Repre-
sentative Macon objected, and stalked
from the room. Professor Gannett, OF
the geodetic survey, told of the sound
ings Peary took near the pole and of
the explorer having gone ten miles
past the pole in order to make sure
that he was at the top of the earth.
1t was stated that any scientist who
knew the business could remain IN
Washington and fix up astronomical
observations and instrument records
such as man might make at the
pole. These could not be told from
genuine it was acknowledged.
The committee will take IN the
subject again Tuesday.

CHIPPEWA CHIEFS
KILLED BY GAS
ON VISIT TO WASHINGTON THEY
BLEW THE LIGHTS AND
PASSED BEYOND.
ONE WAS CENTENAREAN WHO
SIGNED TREATY FORTY-FOUR
YEARS AGO.

Washington, March 1.-Two Chip
pewa chiefs, who came to Washington
Thursday from Orr, Mimi, in COM
pany with two other chiefs and an In
dian missionary interpreter, to ask
congress for additional land for the
Bots Forte reservation, were asphyXl-
ated by Illuminating gas in lodging
house yesterday. One was Chief Bay
Bum ah-Ji-Wa-Skun one hundred
years old, who signed the treaty be-
tween the United States and the
Chippewas in 1856. The other was
Chief A-Ni-Wuy-Way-Ausk.
1t is believed one of the Indians IN
ignorance blew out the gas which sent
them to the happy hunting grounds. .
This was the second visit of the
old chief to the capitol The first
journey to Washington was A years
ago, when he came to sign the treaty.
The present journey, with a nephew,
was to consult with the Indian office
regarding payments claimed under
that treaty and certain lands.
The chieftain was always a friend
of the whites and while he possessed
record for bravery in Indian con-
dicts, particularly with the Sioux, he
never raised a tomahawk against the
whites. He held tenaciously to the
traditions of his race and almost TO
the day of his death wore a blanket.
He only recently deserted his wigwam
for a log cabin, in which he used no
lights approaching the. danger of gas.
