In Germany—Another War
Loan Is Likely.
BERLIN, N* . 6.—Regarding the
present status of affairs In Peking an
official of the German foreign office
makes the following statement:
"Conferences are occurring daily be
tween the different ministers represent
ing the powers in Peking, with a view of
gaining a basis upon which they can pro
ceed jointly and harmoniously. For this
purpose lively telegraphic communica
tions arc jnst now passing between Pe
king and the different home govern
ments.
"As yet the complete accord has not
been obtained which is required to take
away from Li Hnng Chang every vestige
of hope that he can achiere successes by
negotiating separately with any particu
lar power. Only after such a thorough
accord haa been obtained will the repre
sentatives of the powers be ready to en
ter into actual peace negotiationa with
the Chinese plenlpotentlarlea.
"Whether the note of the powers to
China will be a joint one or whether each
power will hand in a note identical in
form haa not yet been decided."
The press dispatches from China re
garding the various antiforeign appoint
ments have been corroborated by official
advices from the German minister to
China, Dr. Mnmm von Schwartsonstein.
The severe punishments adjudged against
the Pao-ting-fu officials responsible for
the tnassaeres are unanimously approved
by Germany.
it is ascertained from a source ap
parently reliable that another and even
larger imperial loan is forthcoming.
Leading financiers in Berlin and Frank
fort corroborate this statement. The cost
of the China expedition, which is much
more considerable already than has hith
erto been admitted, must be covered by
such a loan.
Moreover, the expenses of the empire
in various departments are much larger
than than was anticipated when the
budget was passed.
'Viee Admiral Alexioff has addressed
a communication to Li Hung Chang ask
ing China's intentions regarding Man
churia and inviting her to resume the
government of thnt territory under Rus
sian protection, which, he says, will be of
mutual advantage to China and Russia.'
EnTdfi Have Agreed.
PEKING, Nov. B.—The foreign en
voys met again yesterday morning and
virtually agreed as to the points of chief
importance. It was decided to leave
minor differences for future discussiou.
The St. Panl Limp* Into Port.
NEW YORK, Nor. 3.—The American
line steamer St. Paul limped into port
yusterday under the port engine after
having incurred the most serious experi
ence of her eareer. On Oct. 11l at 8:00 p.
m., hi latitude 40.13, longitude 48.03, the
Rt. Paul struck a supposed submerged
wreck, carried away the starboard pro
peller. eausing the engines to race so
fiercely that the shaft broke, and all con
unctions snapped. The starboard en
gines were so severely wrecked that they
are useless, and it will take six months
to replace them with n new set. The
after outboard shaft tubing was carried
away. The ship is leaking considerably.
When the accident occurred, the cabin
passengers were quite excited, but they
were soon restored to quiet by the prompt
report that the steamer was in no dan
ger. The wind was blowing heavily
frem the northeast, with n high cross
sea. The engineers examined the breaks
and disconnected the starboard engines,
aad the St. Paul proceeded on her voy
age under the port englue at a reduced
speed.
Pensions Pur Railway Employees.
PITTSBURG, Nov. 3.—Official notices
hare been posted of the inauguration of
a pension system for the employees of the
Praneyirania lines. The new system will
go mto effect on Jan. 1, 1901. Employees
sged Yo years or more will be given op
tion of retiring from service on half pay.
Another provision also stipulates that If
■ a employee has been crippled in the
service of the road he can retire at the
age of 63 years. The system has been in
vogne oa the Pennsylvania railroad for
seme time, and as it has met with the ap
proval of the employees it has been decid
ed te extend it over the entire Pennsyl

MONARCH IN CAPTIVITY
How Samory the Dethroned African
King Is Existing.
Some interesting details in regard to
the present condition of Samory, the
dethroned African monarch, have just
been received by the French Minister
of the Colonies. Samory is now at
Kayes, where he occupies a camp,
which is guarded by a company of sol
diers. He has fifteen wives with him.
and sixteen of his children and several
servants. He spends his time in read
ing the Koran and smoking Cigarettes.
To outward seeming Samory is calm
and contented, but at heart he is quite
the reverse. He cannot rid himself
of the Idea that he will be murdered
some day and whenever one of his
guards happens to fire a shot he is con
fident that his last hour has come. He
brooded bo muoh over his coming doom
that he quite lost his senses recently,
and made a determined but futile effort
to commit suicide.
Samory still retains with him a few
pieces of his barbaric furniture, but all
his gold and silver treasure, which
mainly consists of gold rings and silver
plateß, has been confiscated by the
French government and is to be sold.
His silver cuirass, however, a massive
and unique work of art, will be placed
in the War Museum at Paris. Sam
ory, it Is said, has grieved much over
the loss of these treasures, and it is
considered doubtful whether his cap
tors, no matter how kindly they may
treat him, will ever be able to reconcile
him to his lot.
The Untruthful Mummy.
We saw only the outer gardens and
the museum, the chief attraction of
which Is a magnificent marble sarco
phagus decorated with bass-reliefs of
Alexander the Great. On one side the
conqueror Is represented as routing the
Persians, and on the other side there
Is a lively struggle with a wild boar.
The guide book does not certify that
Alexander ever occupied the sarcopha
gus, but the guide assured me that he
had. The collection of statues, bronz
es and sarcophagi is interesting and
immensely valuable, and I would like
to copy some of the descriptions from
the guide book, but space forbids.
One Egyptian mummy case had a
"Stranger forbear" kind of an inscrip
tion on it. The guide furnished me
with a liberal translation. The king
on the Inside of the case, "swathed In
splcery and fine linen," had caused this
injunction to be placed on the lid of
his sarcophagus:
"Do not disturb these mortal re
mains, for there is naught within this
casement except my poor body. There
Is neither gold nor precious Jewelry to
reward the covetous."
The antiquarians who uneartthed the
sarcophagus did not respect this appeal.
When they examined the mummy
wrapped inside of the box they found
several pieces of gold clasped in the
right hand, which proves that an Or
iental will lie even after death. —Egyp-
tian Correspondence to the Chicago
Record.
Wanted Her Money or Her Teeth.
A great crowd collected at St. La
zare Station. Paris, one day lately to
see a furious dispute between a young
girl and an elderly man. during which
the girl kept uttering the cabalistic
words, "My money or my three teeth!"
At length ihe police marched them
off to the nearest police station, and
the girl told her story.
She. met a man in Monimartre who
so admired her teeth that he offered
her 60 francs for three of them. The
girl had them pulled, but the treach
erous monster did not pay.
The man cf St. Ljzare Station was,
however, not the culprit In question.
It was a case of mist.iken Identity. The
police are now locking for the tooth
thief.

"As I understand it," said the heath

"Exactly so."
"You mean to get me out of habits of
idleness and teach me to work?"
"That is the idea."
"And then lead n:e to simplify my
methods and invent things to make my

"Yes."
"And next I wil become ambitious
to get rich, so th:.t I won't have to
work at all?"
"Naturally."
"Well, what's the use oV taking such
a roundabout way cf getting Just where
I started? I don't iave to work now."

"'HIDDEN IN PETTIPOAFRS
Va»t Wealth of a Woman Sewn l T p
In Her Clothes.
Quite a sensation has recently been
caused at
death of a lime. Balsch, who has, by
her eccentricities, lor years past, at
tracted much attention in that town.
Some years ago she was the wife of
a Herr Veldlman, by whom she had a
daughter. After a year or two of mar
ried life eho divorced him and married
a Herr Balsch, by whom she had a
son. Soon after the latter's birth «he
left her second husband.
She then went to Paris, where she
called herself Countess von Balsch.
Toward her children she never seemed
to feel anything but the greatest ha
tred, and when her son died she sent
the body to his father for burial. She
turned her daughter out of her house,
and the unfortunate girl was only kept
from starvation by the kindness of rel
atives. After the death of her second
husband she returned to Roumanla,
where she lived in complete retire
ment.
In spite of the fact that she was ex
tremely wealthy she lived in the most
wretched manner, and was generally
reputed to be a miser. A few days ago
she died. When her daughter came
to examine her belongings no trace of
money could be found. Ingoing
through her mother's clothing, how
ever, she noticed that one of the petti
coats seemed somewhat stiff, as if
heavily lined. She ripped it open and
found over 200,000 notes sewed under
the lining.
This put her on the track, and all
her mother's petticoats, of which she
had an enormous number, were exam
ined. In nearly every one large sums
of money were found, amounting all
together to between 2,000,000 francs
and 3,000,000 francs. —Fremdenblatt.
Glacier Streams of Iceland.
All tho glacier stroains of Iceland,
says the Geographical Journal possess
the common characteristics of carry
ing down large quantities of pebbles
and clay and of spreading out over the
lowlands In a network of anastomos
ing channels. Generally they emerge
from their parent Glaciers with a
pretty steep fall and jtatlier heavy
burdens of pebbles and debris from the
moraines—so heavy, indeed, that when
the strength of the current diminishes
the stream cannot carry its load but
drops it. The river bed thus gets chok
ed up, the current divides. The strong
est branches force their way through
the debris, encounter fresh obstacles,
run into one another, coalesce with
other branches, gain accessions of
power, once more burst through the
deposits of gravel, send off small side
arms, again diminish in volume, and
so go through unceasing struggle be
tween the glacial torrents and the
masses of gravelly debris, giving rise
to an incessantly changing network
of interconnected channels.
One day a river branch will be swol
len to the dimensions of a dangerous
river, the next day it will contract to
the compass of au inslgnlfleeat rivulet.
A minute often suffices to cause a stop
page. a division of the current, tho
carving out of 11 new bed. Some of
these streams become dammed up un
til they form lakes, which overflow
and inundate many square miles of the
adjacent country. Some cut out such
deep channels ilirotiirii the glacier de
bris that they do not shift their course
for many years. One of these glacier
torrents, therefore, often presents a
picture of nn extremely complicated
network of hundreds of branches, in
closing between them 11 multitude of
Islands of clay and sand, which are
equally as variable as the rivers them,
selves. It may be acepted as an in
variable law with regard to the glacial
streams of Iceland that they never
empty themselves into the deep fjords.
In all cases where they formerly (ltd so
the fjords have become choked wtili
sand, gravel and clays.
Women Smoke In France.
Statistics have been taken in France
of the spread of the habit of smoking,
and it has been discovered that within
the last year the cigarette, atid even,
astonishing as It may appear, the pipo
have found nn enormous increase in
their female votaries.
The fashion of smoking among wom
en is no longer confined to the secrecy
of a private room. The Duchess d't'zes
and the Marchioness de la Rochefou

The statistics ailuded to show that

■ The Wisconsin Agricultural Experiment Station.
MADISON - , WIS., July 13,1397.
In conducting our Dairy School, wo have had occasion to use the various sizes
of Improved uT S. Separators for dairy instruction during several winters past.
Our students have always been pleased with the operation of these Separators,
and we find that they slcim the milk very clean indeed from fat, and that they
are generally very satisfactory.

We regard the Improved United States Separator as one of the very best all
round machines. In cleanness of skimming it surpassed all the others. It
compares favorably with the rest in capacity. Our man calls it the smoothest
running machine we have, although it has been in use nearly three years—a
good comment on its wearing qualities. F. S. COOLKY, Prof, o£ Ag't.

Your No. 5 Separator was received, set up, and has been operated daily since
the 4th of January. Kach of our dairy boys has now had a turn at it, setting it
■Q up, running it, washing it, and testing the skim-milk. They all like the machine,
on account of its easy running and simplicity. Wc are running through milk
la to 24 hours old, warmed to over 80 and usually about 90 degrees. The per
cent, of fat in the skim-milk, so far as reported, will not reach on the average
a tenth of a per cent., and often Is too small to read, in the skim-milk bottle. We
are pleased with the machine in every possible way, as far as we have been able
to observe it in a month's use.
