UNKNOWN WOMAN
FOUND IN IN ALLEY

An unknown woman, suffering either
from the hysterical after-effects of the
use Of some drug or from the effects
Of dose of poison taken with suicidal
intent, was found lying in an alley be-
tween Third and Fourth avenues near
Seventeenth street last evening. She
was taken to the police station and a
physician who attended her there had
her removed TO St. Anthony's hospital.
This morning DR.. Alfred E. Stocker,
city physician, took charge of the case.
He stated this afternoon that the
woman is hysterical most of the time.
her mouth shows the use of drug az
do the pupils of her eyes. When she
is not hysterical she Is in a state OF
lethargy. It is impossible to learn hef
identity. When she does talk it is of
a love affair, but little can be CLEANED
from her deliriOus talk. The woman
is little over 80 years of age.

HAVE GENERAL DISCUSSION.
No motion for the consideration Of
the ordinance was offered. The read
ing Of it evoked a general discussion
among the commissioners. Commits
sioner Jonas Bear is in charge of the
waterworks at the present time. 1t
is not the intention of the ordinance TO
discredit his direction of the work but
TO eradicate the discrepancies which
for years have existed in the depart
ment and which can only, it is thought,
be eliminated by board of competent
commissioners who are conversant
with the mechanical operation as well
as the business end OF the proposition.
The time required OF each commits
sioner will be short, but all sufficient.
The salary. small as it is, is common
surate with the amount of time re-
quired of each commissioner, though
the service which they will be required
70 render through their knowledge
might demand more through a perma-
nent position. 1t is the object to re-
tain the present employees, save in
such instances where improvement can
be made or wherein the employee is
superfuous.
LONG CONSIDERED.
The waterworks commission has
been a consideration of years and was
recently revived by Mayor Schriver in
an address before the Fifty Thousand
club. He presented it at that time as
matter for consideration. In all prob
ability il will meet with the approval
Of the citizenship.
Informally, the commissioners pre-
| sented their views on the matter yes
| terday, but because of the newness o.
| the proposition, no definite poll Of opin
ion was taken. At present the commits
/ sion is a self-constituted board il
/ charge of the system.

information oi Interest to Applicants
 for the Survey oi Public lands.

It is matter of general interest to prospective applicants for the survey of public lands that Con. gress annually appropriates the sum of $400000.00 for the survey and resurvey of the public lands of the United States, which sum is appoltioned among thirteen western states and territories according to the requirements of these respective districts.
 Under existing law, the expend- iture of the annual appropriation for public surveys is restricted, first, to lands occupied in whole or in part by actual settlers on the pub lie domain, and, second, to lands adapted to agriculture. It will therefore be seen that the applica- tions of actual bona fde settlers will be given preference in the mat ter of authorizing the surveys of tOwnshlns, payable from this reg ular annual appropriation, and that applications by persons not actually residing on their claims such as desert land claimants, for survey of public lands including their claims will receive consider ation only after the demands of ac- tual settlers on other lands have heen recognized, and provided the fund annual y apportioned for each district has not been exhausted.
 In making application for survey of public lands, the applicant should carefully determine, as near as practicable, the approximate sec tion, township, and range in which his claim is located and he should describe in detail all improvements which he made on his claim.
 In order to secure the survey of a full township and the quickest possible action by this office in awarding contract, it would be advisable for the applicant to have two or more other settlers who are living within the same township make similar applications for sur

vey, the Government preferring to survey all the agricultural and graz ing land in q township under one contract. However, the application of one actual bona fde resident in a township, where there are no other settlers, will be sufficient to secure the survey of twelve sections of that township; and the application of two such resident settlers will se- cure the survey of twenty.four sec- tions, in order to include their claims.
 Public land surveys, payable from the regular annual ap- propriation, are made without cost to the settler, the Government pay ing all expenses in connection herewith.
 All applications for the survey of public lands are examined in the field by an agent of the Govern ment, appointed for that purpose, in order to determine the good faith, actual residence, etc., of the applicant. If such field examina- ton develops the fact that the settlers claim is not located in the township stated in his application, he should immediately file new application, properly describing the location of his claim therein. It therefore behooves the applicant to be on the lookout for tbe special agent and ascertain from him whe- ther lis application has been cor rectly executed.
 Surveys of homestead entries within the limits of National For ests are executed under the jnrisdic- ton of the Surveyor-General, at the expense of the claimant, in ac- cordance with the provisions of the Act of Congress approved June II, 1906.
 Further instructions relative to the method of procedure in the matter of securing the survey of public lands will be cheerfully given in reply to communications requesting specific information.

.BR|GAND CHIEF LEADS
NEW CHINESE REVOL7 |
TURN ARSENAL OVER
TO REBELS AND $50 HAVE
BEEN KILLED IN CANTON.

Hong Kong, China.--The situation
at Canton, where revolters under
LUX, a brigand chief, are endeavor-
ing to oust the local and provincial
governments is regarded by the con-
sular authorities here as most alarm
ing. European missionaries have
been ordered to quit the territory at
once, and all available river vessels
are being pressed into service to
bring refugees to this city.
The fighting at Canton began with
an attack by brigands several days
ago and has continued constantly
ever since in various parts OF the
suburbs The attack began to as
sumo serious proportions when the
soldiers in the Bogue forts suddenly
mutinied and surrendered the forts
TO Luks men. The invaders equip
ped themselves from the arsenal and
with modern guns and ammunition
took possession of the admiralty
building. The number of persons
killed or seriously wounded thus far
is estimated by refugees at between
100 and $50.
The followers of LUX are meeting
with stubborn resistance, and one OF
Their chiefs has been captured by the
loyal troops
The Hong Kong government is
keeping itself fully advised of the
situation.
