nied CounselMilitary Super

WASHINGTON. Fub. 21.-The Inven
tlfation of the mining trail Mrs anil the
conduct of the United Stutos forces In
Idaho last summer coutinued today be
fore the house committee on military af
fairs. Frederick O. Hobertnon resumeil
his narrative, begun yenterdny, kIvIiik the
legal proceedings he adopted In behalf of
the Imprisoned miners mid the difficulties
be claims to have encountered from the
military authorities, state officials and the
courts, lie said he was refused permis
sion to be present at the inquest of those
killed during the outbreak and was un
able to communicate with the accused
miners as to their rights, although rep
resentatives of the mining company were
present. He protested to the attorney
general that the miners were being de
nied the right of counsel. Throughout
these proceedings, the witness said, the
military authorities were in control of
affairs, and United States soldiers guard
ed the imprisoned, men, bringing them to
and from the court.
The witness said Oeneral Merriam was
fa) charge of the "bull pen." This was
Improvised quarters, as no prison was
available, and consisted of old buildings
and box cars, surrounded by a wire fence.
Mr. Robertson expressed the opinion that
the United States forces should have
been used to preserve order nud uphold
tbe civil authorities; but, in fact, bo de
clares, they superseded the civil authori
ties and in some instances, which were de
tailed, arrested mini in no way connected
with the outbreak. He said there were
no warrants and none of the usual forms
of law, but when a man was wanted he
was stopped on the street and sent to
the "bull pen." This wns done by depu
ties, who acted under the state officials
and the military authorities. The wit
ness will proceed with his statement to
morrow. Messrs. Morrison and Furuseth of the
American Federation of Labor were pres
ent during the hearing today, and Presi
dent (fonipers is expected to attend when

'e Haitian War Ramon,
LONDON, Feb. 21. The Vienna cor
respondent of The Standard says:
"Strange rumors are afloat in Vienna,
and still stranger things are undoubtedly
ccurring. Humors point to impending
hostilities between Itulgaria and Servia.
There is no doubt that both are massing
troops on the frontiers. It looks impossi
ble, however, that a war should occur,
because neither country possesses the
necessary financial sinews, und neither
Knssiu nor Austria would sanction such
an outbreak."

THE COLIMA VOLCANO.
Fierce I'.rnrttliin an Pnelflc Coast
of
Mexico,
NEW YORK, Feb. 21. Interesting dc- I
tails regarding the sudden and nYrce
erupt inn of the Colima volcano on the Pa- 1
cific coast of Mexico, recently reported
by telegraph from Guadalajara, Mexico,
hnve been received by W. J. Arkell of
this city, who is lurgcly interested in cop
per properties In the state of Colima.
The account received by Mr. Arkell de
scribes an immense river of lava as run
ning over the side of the volcano, which
threatened to overwhelm three Indian
villages near its base. These Indians fled
to the Santa Aua mine In the center of
Colimn's copper region and sought safety
from the Homes by hiding in its recesses.
They left their women and children to
shift for themselves. A company of
Mexican troops which had been promptly
dispatched to the scene from Guadula
jnra were compelled to drive the Indians
from the mine and send them back to
their homes to protect their families.
Much woodland property was destroyed,
but the natives are poor and shiftless,
and their losses, while very serious to
them in many Instances, aggregate only a
small amount.
The government of Mexico 'from whom
Mr. Arkell. Mr. Nctherton Hall of Chi
cago and Mr. Paul W. Horbnch of Oma
ha obtained a concession of 250,000 acres
In the Colima valley, generously offered
to cancel the concession if the mines were
Injured by the volcano's eruption, but the
offer wns declined. One of the most seri
ous results of the volcanic disturbance is
the entire cessation of work on n tram
way now being built to connect the cop
per mines with the port of Manznnillo.
The contractors were unable to restrain
the terrified Indians employed in the con
struction of the road, and many of them ,
have gone to Michoncan and Jalisco and
others have lied to the more distaut
southern states of the republic.
The telegiam from Mr. Arkell's super
intendent further ndds thnt "one of the
reasons for the terrible fright of the
Mexican natives Is because for many
years a superstition has prevailed that
the close of this century would be mark
ed by devastating floods ond earthquakes.
It is almost impossible to dispel the be
lief in the minds of the people that the
eruption of Colima is not the beginning
of the end of all things. Unless the vol
cano speedily censes its fireworks there
won't lie an Indian within 100 miles of
the properties.
Ship's Crew In Peril.
PHILADELPHIA. Feb. 21. The tug
boat L. Luckenbnch steamed into the
Delaware breakwater with four sailors,
the crew of the barge General McClellnn,
on board, alieist frozen to death. The
barge was can, .lit in the gale of last Sat
urday night and sank in 12 fathoms of
water about eight miles southwest of
Five Fathom bank. The barge was try
ing to make the breakwater. She was
not able to withstand the gale long and
went to the bottom with about ten feet
of her foremast sticking out of water.
Upon this the men climbed, and, with the
water dashing over them, clung there un
' til late on Sunday afternoon, when the
Luckenbuch came along and took them
off.
Department Stores Win,
JEFFERSON CITY, Mo., Feb. 21.
Tbe supreme court, in nn opinion by
i Judge Robinson, nil the judges concur
ring, declared the department store law
passed by the hist legislature unconstitu
tional and void for the reasou that it is
clearly class legislation nnd because the
act is Incomplete and is not a law and
does not constitute a rule of conduct, nnd
for the further reason that the act Im
poses an occupation tax as a license to do
business. The law applied to St. Louis,
Kansas City and St. Joseph and the
stores in those cities employing a speci
fied number of clerks. This feature is ob
jected to in the opinion as class legisla
tion. i

HIGHTKEYS FOR CHRISTMAS.
Why n Tlrnnklyn Mnn and Wife He
erlved Them from Tlirlr Neitt
Iloor Neighbors,
A Brooklyn nion and wife linve bad
two icculinr experiences which have
caused them to be talked about In their
neighborhood. A few months ago they
went out for the evening and forgot to
tnlte n nlgbtkey. The servant wns out
tbe same night. When the man find his
wife returned and failed to pet a re
sponse to their ring, the husband
smashed one of the windows nnd
crawled in. In, this way he opened the
door and admitted Ms wife, says the
New York Sun.
One experience of this character is
sufficient to make nn Impression, but it
left no warning on tbte mind of this
man. Not longnfter the incident he and
his wife again went out and forgot a
night key. Falling to get in on their
return the man Bent Ti is wife to a neigh
bor's while be went over to a hotel neisr
by to borrow a jimmy, as be hnd tlecid
td to get In with that nnd save the ex
pense of a window glass. Armed with
the Implement he returned, nnd nfter
considerable effort he forced the door,
walked upstairs nnd found his neigh
bors nnd his wife enjoying themselves,
lie hnd forced the doors of his neigh
bors' house, adjoining his own nnd
architecturally a counterpart of It.
Then his wife rnnde the discovery thnt
she had the key of her house.
Among the Christmns offerings re

It may sound, it is nevertheless o fact
that the laud of the Great White Tsar
still cherishes a calendar which is 13
days uliend of everybody else, Fays the
Cincinnati Enquirer.
It is true that our own calendar wns
11 days out until 1731. Then our Eng
lish forefnthers put it straight by drop
ping these spare days out of the reck
oning, much to the dismay of the un
educated. The public state of mind at
that time may best be realized from
the fact that it held riotous muss meet
ings, to protest against the "robbery,"
with bands and banners, from the lat
ter of which blazed forth its grievance:
"Give us our 11 duysl" Indeed, it was
not until several heads had been broken,

those which still remuined intact cooled
sulliciently to appreciate the fact that
the change was inevitable, and not
merely the outcome of a government
dodge to fleece the worklnguian out of

The Scots and llavarlans.
In a puper on "Recent Ethnegraph
ical Work In Scotland," read before the
British association, Mr. Gray described
his observations on the color of tbte
hair and eyes of the schoolchildren of
East Aberdeenshire. The pigmenta
tion of the Scotch children was shown
in a table and compared with tbe con
tinental districts, whence, according
to tradition and history, thfc lowland
Scots derived a large element of their
population viz.: Schleswlg-IIolstein,
Lueneberg, and Mecklenburg-Schwerin,
the reputed original seats of the Angles
nnd Saxons. The tables showed that
the three north German districts were
more blonde than East Aberdeenshire.
Germany got more brunette and less
blonde from north to southl and we
must go as far as upper Bavaria to get
a district approximating in pigmenta
tion to East Aberdeenshire.
To Be Prepared For war is the surest way
for this nation to maintain peace. That is
the opinion of the wisest statesmen. It is
equally true that to be prepared for spring is
the best way to avoid the peculiar dangers
of the season. This is a lesson multitudes
are learning, and at this time, when the
blood is sure to be loaded with impurities
and to be weak and sluggish, the millions
begin to take Hood's Sarsaparilla, which
purifies, enriches and vitalizes the blood,
expels all disease germs, creates a good ap
petite, gives strength and energy and puis
the whole system in a healthy condition,
preventing pneumonia, fevers, and other
dangerous diseases which are liable to attack
