The Prairie will return about the middle of the monh and em bark the remainder. The final embarka tion will not ocur until April 1. Troops to Leave Quietly. The embarkation will be effected as little ceremony as possible and with it is probable that their departure will b made with as little notice as1 marked their landlnc. The purpose in deferring the departure of a portion of the 17th Infantry until April 1 has been the sub ject of considerable speculation, but It is believed this was agreed upon at a conference between Governor MagonA and President-elect Gomez. It is not thought to be a measure of precaution, for which not the slightest necessity Is apparent, but it probably Is for the pur pose of keeping the barracks and quar ters in good order until It is possible to turn over to the Cuban authorities a model camp for occupation by the new permanent army under command of Gen eral Pino Guerrera. the nucleus of which will be formed, it Is Intended, with the present corps of Cuban artil lery and lott members of the Rural Guard.

Spirit Voice in Night and Goes to New York to Find Woman Seriously 111. NEW YORK. Dec. (Special.) In obedience to a psychic communication, the first she had ever received. Miss Cath erine Bruce, a student in the University of Michigan, came to New York from Ann Arbor, Mich., to find her twin sis ter, Mrs. Charles J. Rich, of ) West "ll'th street, ill with pneumonia. Miss Bruce said that while in a sorority bouse in Ann Arbor late Monday. night a voice which she thought was that of her twin sister had said to her: "Come to me. I need you." Disturbed by this message, the young w."nian immediately sent u telegram to her sister. The telegram was received and ojened by Mr. Rich. His wife had been ill for several days, but the physi cians In attendance had said that the ill nes.; was not grave. Knowing that the examinations at t!ie end of tile hrst semester in the University of Michigan were at hand and that any Interruption in the college work of his sister-in-law might be prejudicial to her chances of passing those tests, Mr. Rich telegraphed to Mls Bruce: Jeanette slightly 111. No cause for alarm." Mr. Rich told his wife what lie had done, and she agreed with him that it would be unnecessary for her. sister to come East. Miss Bruce, however, was not sufficiently reassured by the telegram, and came here and went at once to the apartment of her sister and her brother-in-law. There she found that her sister's iHntss. although it was not critical, had become more serious than had been at first supposed. Wie said: "I have never been a believer In psychic phenomena or thought-transference of any sort. I have never given the subject any attention. My sister and I were al ways together until last September, w hen CLAIMANT APPEARS TO THE TITLE OF BAROX SACKVILLE. Says He Is a Son of the Former American Minister AVlio Was Married to Spanish Dancer. LONDON, Dec. 2S. The romantic and extraordinary story underlying the dis puted claim to the Sackvllle peerage and estates at Knole. Sevenoaks. was un folded In the chancery division before Mr. Justice Eve. The following are Involved in the case: The late Baron Sackvllle: Died In Sep tember last, aged 81, having spent 41 years in the diplomatic service, bis last appointment being as Minister Plenipo tentiary to the United States. Ernest Henry Jean Baptlste West: Claims to succeed the late Baron In the peerage and the family estates, alleging that he was a legitimate son of Lord Sackvllle by a secret marriage. Josephine Duran de Ortega: Claimant's mother, now dead. A beautiful Spanish dancer, alleged to have been secretly married to Lord Sackvllle. Edward Lionel Sackville-West: Son of the late Lord Sackville's younger brother; aged 41: Major In the West Kent Im perial Yeomanry; formerly regarded as the heir-presumptive; defendant in the present proceedings. Knole House. Kent: The Sackville home, one of England's oldest and most famous mansions, full of art treasures, with a park of 1000 acres. Sackville-West in Washington. The late Lord Sackville is well remem bered In tho United States through the sensational circumstances under which he ceased to represent Great Britain at Washington. In the Presidential cam paign of 1SSS. when Cleveland was the P'mocraticcandidate for re-election, and General Harrison was the Republican nominee, nno Murehlson. of California. wrote to the British Minister, who was then Sir Lionel Sackville-West, asking his ndvice as to how a Briton, naturalized in America, should vote, having the in terests of his native country at heart. Sir Lionel replied that he would make no mistake In voting the ticket of the party in power. Publication of the letter led to the Is suance at once of the Minister's pass ports by the Administration. At the same time his -recall was ordered from London, and he took an early train for Montreal, sailing thence for home. Receiver for Rents Asked. The claimant. Ernest Henry Jean Bap tlste We.st. whose legitimacy Is in Issue, asked for the appointment of a receiver and manager of the rents and settled funds pending the result of what prom ises to be protracted litigation. Ogden Iawrence, K C for the claim ant, said that the main object of the present application was that the rents might be kept safe, and that the tenants might not have to pay twice in case of the claimant's success in the pending proceedings. Justice Eve asked who was In posses sion now. Mr. I.awrence said that when Lord Sackville died his nephew, Edward Lionel Sackville-West. was living with him. and that nephew claimed to be the person entered In title. He would succeed If the claimant Ernest were found to be Ille gitimate. Since the late Lord's death the nephew and his wife had l"ft the mansion house at Knole. which had been closed, and the whole of the rents and property were being managed by Mr. Glasler. who was agent for the late Lord Sackville. Cose Pending In Probate Court. Mr. Lawrence said he wanted the ques tion of legitimacy to be tried by a Jury, the title and estates depending on It. A petition entered in the probate and divorce division In October. If07. to ob tain a declaration of the claimant's le gitimacy, is still pending. Proceeding to explain the facts of his case, counsel said that the claimant was born at Arachon. In the Gironde. on June 24. lSiin. his father, the late Lord Sack ville, then being the Hon. Lionel Sackville-West. fifth son of Lord Pe la Warr, who was at the time first secretary to the British embassy at Tarls. v His mother was Josephine Duran de Ortega, who had been an accomplished and beautiful Spanish dancer. The birth certificate of the claimant, signed by his ) father, was read: also the certificate of baptism, which took place on July 11. 1S;9. the god-parents being the Duke of Saxe-Coburg-Gotha and the Countess de Bion. On the baptismal document the parents were described as the Hon. Lio nel Sackville-West and Josefa de Ortega, YACHT TO JUNK HEAP Constitution, Built to Race Sham rock, Is to Be Broken Up. New York World. Xow conies the passing of another American Cup yacht. The famous Con stitution, predecessor of the Reliance, was sold to Edward S. Reis & Co., 32 Broadway, by the American Cup De fender Association, the syndicate which built her, of which August Belmont was the head. She will be broken up for junk, like Thomas W. Lawson's Inde pendence. Lipton's Shamrock II, and other celebrated racers. The Constitution is high and dry in the yard of the Thames Marine Railway Company, In New Ixindon, Conn., where she has been since her last race with the Reliance In lft). She will be cut in four sections, each of which will be put on, a lighter with a derrick and brought down the Sound and East River, to the foot of Broad street. There everything in her construction will be broken up and sold. There is t2j.0) worth of so-called Junk in the yacht. There are 100 tons of lead. 31) tons of bronz. 25 tons of steel, 3ft tons of sails nd 3) tons of miscellaneous materials. including anchors and chains. Mr. Rels has bought nearly a score of famous yachts in a few years. Some he has sent south and sold for tarpon fish ing, as told In the World last May. and others whose bones were getting brittle, he-has broken up. In cases where their years have not told on them their size has kept them Idle In some shipyard. A cup defender is an expensive play thing because of the large crew required to man her. The Vigilant and Colonia were changed Into schooners which re quire less of a crew than a sloop of equal slze but neither is as large as the Constitution. The Constitution measures $9 feet S Inches on the surface of tho water, but from her bow to her stern she is 132 feet long. She has a beam, of 25 feet 2 Inches, a draught 19 feet 7 Incha. &nd baa IS feet o fict h. i K 'i i 'iT"sr V7 NEW CAPITAL CITY Scheme to Center All State Institutions. J. F. BROWN'S IDEA UNIQUE Spokane Banker Would Concentrate Ail Public Buildings ut Some Point to Be Decided Upon by the Legislature. OLVMPIA, Wash., Dec. 27. (Special.) J. J. Brown, millionaire banker of Spo kane and member of the hoard of regents of the state college at Pullman, has de vised a plan, which has several new fea tures, for concentrating all the public Institutions of this state in one locality. He has discussed the matter with Gov ernor A. E. Mead and other state offi cers and Is disposed to urge the Legis lature to adopt it. Mr. Brown's plan provides for the pur chase by the state of five or six sections of land, with the expressed intention of locating a capital city thereon. He would have this tract beautified and platted and the large portion not needed as sites for state institutions sold to the public. The revenues from the sale of the platted lots would be devoted to the erection of a state capitol and other public buildings. The plan. Is not conceived for imme diate needs, but looks far into the fu ture. As he would have it carrired out the srtate institutions would remain where they are until outgrown by the needs of the state, but as often as new build ings were required the would be located in the new capital city. It is his con tention that a capitol building, at least, could bo thus built from the sale of the platted lands and that the concentration of the Institutions in one locality would mean a saving of millions of dollars In future expenditures for maintenance. Some such tract as that embracing American Lake. Stellacoom Asylum and the wveral small bodies of water in that locality Is suggested as available, the state's holdings to extend to tide water. Officials here with whom the subject has been discussed are far from optimis tic over the chances of Inducing the I legislature to take up such a plan. Fourteen state Institutions are scattered among 12 counties, many of which are of the bigger counties in population. It Is conceded that each of these 12 coun ties would oppose any plan that would encompass the loss of the Institution lo cated therein, even in the distant fu ture. The three normal schools are lo cated in Whatcom, Kittitas and Spokane counties; the two insane asylum in Spo kane and Pierce counties; the two sol diers' homes In Pierce and Kitsap coun ties; the penitentiary in Walla Walla County; state training school in Lewis County; reform school in Snohomish County; school for deaf and blind in Clark County; university in King County: state college in Whitman County and the state capitol in Thurston County. Thirty-one of the 42 members of the Senate are. from counties which now have state institutions located in them, while in the House membership of 95 there are 61 from the same counties. Even with the location of the new capital city con ceded to Pierce County, a majority of the members of the legislature would naturally be opposed to the measure.

CASTRO'S EXTUADITIOX ASKKD Demand of Gomez, However, to Bo Opposed by United States. WASHINGTON. Dec. 27. (Special.) News contained in a special cable dis patch from Caracas today to the effect that Acting President Juan V. Gomez, of Venezuela, may demand the extradition of President Castro, is considered here as Important from more than one point of view. Aside from the complications which may result In Venezuela from such a move, officials here foresee difficulty in obtaining the consent of Germany to allow President Castro to be taken out l I I ll V 'rx Iff h' M H if MOOT CALVARY CHAPEL, CARACAS PRESIDENT SIMON'S BODYGUARD. of the country as well as a decided divergence of opinion between the acting president of Venezuela and the State Department. Despite the grievance of the t'nited States Government against President Castro, the State Department, if It fol lows precedent, will strongly oppose the extradition of the Venezuelan president. Any effort on the part of S-enor Gomez to obtain the sanction of the United States will be met with the barrier of precedent regarding extradition for politi cal offenses which the State Department has established, and it is said here today that the State Department can readily refer to many similar attempts at ex tradition which have nearly embroiled the United States in war with foreign powers because of the strict adherence of the Secretary of State to the rule that for a political offense committed In a foreign country there is no law of extradition applicable. What the attitude of Germany will be In case Acting President Gomez makes request for extradition Is discussed in official circles here. ABRUZZi TO CLIMB PEAK ADVEXTrKOVS ITALIAN" PLAXS COXQUEST OP HIMALAYAS. Will Try to Reach Greater Height Than Any Former Moun taineer. ROME, Dec. 26. (Special.) The Corri ere Delia Sera is informed that the Duke of the Abruzzl has decided to undertake a climbing expedition to the Himalayas. His Royal Highness will start from Italy with some companions, two guides and six porters, strong mountaineers from the Aosta Velley, toward the end of March, and will arrive at the foot of the great range at the most convenient sea son for climbing one of the highest peaks, which ' may be Mt Everest. In any case, said the guide, Guiseppe Pet lgax, who will accompany the duke, to a representative of the Corrlere, there are in Nepal many virgin peaks, and even without climbing Everest it Is al ways possible to attain a greater height than has so far been reached. The other guide enlisted in the expedition is Cipriano Savoy. Both guides -went with the duke on his memorable expe giitttxn toward the North Pole. o 7 - ' ' I !: . , - 'f V ! t ' M I - t 0 i t I t t ' ' ' h " I 1 t - J I lM ? - t PreNident Simon. a PLAN APPEAL COURT New Division of Judicial Work in Washington. SIMILAR TO FEDERAL PLAN Scheme Is to Relieve Supreme Court ol Work and to Expedite Judi cial Decisions Bill for Legislature to Discuss. OLYMPIA. Wash.. Dec. 27. An im portant bill that will be presented to the coming session of the Legislature will provide for the subrnlssion of a constitu tional amendment to the voters which will create a district court of appeals in this state. The features -of the bill have been de cided upon by leading members of the SLate Bar Association although the as sociation has not taken it up as a body, and the drafting of the measure is in the hands of an officer of that organization. The bill will call for the creation of three district courts, two of which will sit in Western Washington and the third in Eastern Washington. Each court is to have two judges who will receive a salary of 15040 each. The third member of each District Court will be one of the regular superior judges or a member of the Supreme Court as convenience at the time of sitting may p-nnlt. The Quirt of Appeals will be empowered to sit also as a trial court In the event'of laxity of business. The present Supreme Court, under the provisions of the new measure, will remain unchanged as to number of justices, but by the relieving of that judicial body of a large part of Its labors It is believed the business of the court will permit the members to participate In the hearings in the Court of Appeals at intervals. With such an Appellate Court In existence the Supreme Court would consider onlv cases in which law points were involved. The App?llate Court would be the final arbiter In all cases where the Issues were questions of fact. In one district the court would sit in Seattle, Everett, Belllngham or any other city selected in its discretion within a prescribed district. In Eastern ash lngton tjie principal places for holding court would be Spokane, nana uaiia nd North Yakima; and In the south western district the court there would sit in Tacoma, Aberdeen and Vancouver. Tha general plan Is very similar to that under which the United Spates Circuit Court of Appeals is organized. Members of the bar have been consider ing the advisability of creating some such Appellate Court In this state for some time, as a result of the growtn ot nusi- ness in the state supreme uoun wuicn It Is claimed is now of such volume as to be bevond the power of the seven judges to handle expeditiously. The bill Droviding for the submission ot sucn con stltutional amendment will probably be prepared by C. Will Shaffer, secretary of the State Bar Association, and state law librarian. Another measure to be presented in which the State Bar Association is in terested. Is a bill that will provide for the establishment of county law libraries. The Plan is to increase the Superior Court fees and devote the increase to the establishment of libraries in each county. Kindness Makes Him Bright. St. Louis Cor. New York Times. Miss Gladys Williams, a teacher in the St. Louis County Public Scnool, in a paper read at the county teachers' meeting, told how the word "Dear" made a dull pupil become the leader of his class. "An 8-year-old boy had been in my class nearly a year without snowing any capacity for absorbing knowledge," she said. "He just wouldn't study, and I had about given him up as hopeless. But one day he did something that pleased me, and I said to him, 'that was very nice, dear.' 'At recess he came to me smiling and said: ' 'Teacher, you are the first one that ever called me 'dear.' "He was so proud of It that he asked me to write a letter to his father certi fying that I considered him a dear. His brother heard of It, and he worked hard in the hope that I would speak kindly to htm, too. After that those two boys were the best pupils I had, and there was great rivalry between them."

WASHINGTON. Dec. 27.-(SpeciaU Since Cipriano Castro. President of Venezuela, nas lett his country but sngnt regret over his departure and Hiioscquent vicissitudes have been ex pressed on the part of the people over whom he has tyrannized and whom he una impoverisnea. since 1899. when, at the head of a revolutionary army, he drove his predecessor. President An- orade. from the capital and made him self absolute ruler of Venezuela. Cascro seems to have had but one object In view, namely, to enrich himself. And in this he has succeeded to an amazing extent. Naturally no person knows, nor can an estimate he made .of the wealth wnich Castro has garnered at the ex pense of the poor and rich alike among me Venezuelans. It Is pretty definitely Known that for years he has been send ing vast sums of money to England ana tins fact lends color to the belie that his departure for EuroDe. ostensi bly to consult a noted physician con cerning a serious malady, was only an other of his tricks, perpetrated In or der safely to escape from the country which expects to see him no more. Ten years ago Castro was practically unknown. Born of obscure parents in trie province of San Antonio In 18(10, he grew up practically without eduea tion. He drifted to the province of El Gachero and divided his time between sampling coffee beans for a German firm at Maracaiho and running a small cattle ranch near San Cristobal. He had the reputation of carrying on a smuggling business along the Colom bian border, and one of his favorite tricks to escape paying taxes on his cattle was to drive them Into Colom blan territory -whenever the tax col lector came around. He was not the only one in the Andes who resorted .to such measures, for the government officials were mcr clless in their taxation methods and robbed the people to enrich themselves. A rural wit once remarked that Castro ought to be exempt from taxation on his cattle, fts anyone could see by In specting the brands that they did not really belong to him. As a tax dodger Castro was emlncn Iy successful until one day the Vene zuelan officials and the Colombian offi cials got together and Castro and otli ers found themselves between two tires Unable to pay, his cattle were confis cated. Having no means of support, Castro raised the standard of revolt, gather Ing about him the mountain men, who. like himself, were discontented with the government. In three weeks he had captured the capital of the prov Ince, and with his army, which was being augmented constantly by whole sale desertions from among the govercv ment troops, he marched on Caracas. He opened the jails as he progressed, and with 600 or 700 followers met the remnant of loyal troops at Valencia and won an easy victory. Andrade was a well-intentioned but weak man and unpopular with the politicians because he was honest. Disgusted at the treacri ery of his troops and his officials, he fled to Haiti, and Castro promptly en tered Caracas and proclaimed himself president. Some years previously he had served in the federal congre.s as representative from his province. He was uncouth and dlrtv and cordially hated by his col leagues. Having come Into power he did not hesitate to wreak vengenaee or. those of his former fellow legislators against whom he had entertained and nursed a bitter feeling. Some were Im prisoned, some assassinated and some ex iled. He began at once the reign of ter ror which he since has continued. Gradually he effected a system of spoliation which In the end gave him an almost complete monopoly of every Im portant Industry in the country. He bled the poor and rich alike from the cradle to the grave. He owns the only flour mills in Venezuela and he runs tho only undertaking establishment hi that unhappy land. There is but one brewery and that belongs to Castro. The duty on Imported beer Is so high that nobody can afford to drink it. and it is a case of drink Castro beer or go without. He sells all the Ice used at 5 cents a pound. The national cigarette factory is an other of Castro's institutions. It sup plies all Venezuela with cigarettes. The importation of cigarette papers and to bacco is prohibited. To roll one's own cigarette is a prison offense. Pipes are under the ban. Castro gets a share of the receipts of all the theaters and controls the Bank of Venezuela and the Caracas Bank. He also controls the only newspaper al lowed to be published in the country, and the people are fed with laudatory editorials which compare Castro to Julius Caesar. Hannibal and Napoleon. Tha versatile President also owns the elec tric light industry, and the duty on gas AFTER THE GRIPPE Tinol Bestored This Man's Strength "Several years ago I was attacked by a severe case of grippe, which left me with a hacking cough, soreness in my chest, and bronchitis. I took nearly every kind of cough syrup sold on the market, besides medicine given me by physicians. I received no permanent relief until my druggist asked me to try VInol, and after taking three bottles I was entirely cured. I believe Vinol to be the greatest blessing ever offered to the public, as it does what is claimed for it." R. E. R. Hicks, Maplesville, Ala. The reason Vinol cures chronic coughs, colds and pulmonary troubles Is because it contains tonic iron and all the healing and body building ele ments of cod liver oil but no oil. Vinol is also unexcelled as a strength builder for old people, delicate children, weak and run-down persons, and after i sickness. Woodard, Clarke & Co., DrngglsU, Portland. 166-170 Third Street.
