Danger That Xegroei and
Have Serious Trouble in
Whites May
Oklahoma.
Oklahoma City, March 5. The race
question is assuming serious phases in
Oklahoma Territory, and the continued
agitation, which the subject is raising is
more than, likely to result in a collision
between the whites and blacks. Dur
ing the last six months, negroes have
been flocking into the territory by hun
dreds, in response to glittering induce
ments held out by unscrupulous real es
tate dealers, who' laid out a mythical
town near Guthrie.
.Negroes arriving are destitute and suf
fering from severe cold, but the worst
feature of the case is the fact that new
arrivals have brought the small-pox
with them and the disease is spreading
and the newspapers have openly de
clared a quarrentine against the blacks
THE CANADIAN ELECTION.
Voting: Goinff on Quietly Both
Parties
nara se worK. -
Quebec, March 5. Polling began
quietly today, whole police force on duty.
Storm yesterday and last night blocked
the country roads so badly many voters
will not be able to reach here. In Lon
don. Ont., both parties are making
strenuous efforts to .bring supporters to
the polls. This election is conceded 'to
be the hottest ever contested in this city,
and neither - party are over-confident.
In Montreal the vote is expected to be
the largest within the memory of politi
cians. It is leing quietly and system
atically polled.
THE COPYRIGHT BILL.
Onr British Cousins are Much Exercised
by Its Passage.
London, March 5. The St. James
Gazette this afternoon advocates retalia
tion against the United States on the
copyright bill.
The Pall Mall Gazette says : "Only a
few British authors will be benefitted by
the copyright bill." "The copyright
bill" says the Gazette, "is a misnomer.
The bill means protection for American
printers and paper makers."
A PREHISTORIC RACE.
Some Interesting Discoveries Made at
Nashville.
Nashville, Ten., March 5. Near
Cleveland, Tenn., the work of a prehis
toric race has been discovered in the
shape of a wall now underground. It is
five feet high and one hundred yards
long. Some stones bear inscriptions in
hieroglyphic characters. The wall evi
dentlv antidates the mound builders.
To Develop Trade with South America.
Chicago, March 5. The Illinois Cen
tral railroad company . has decided to
send agents to Mexico and Central and
South America to develop trade between
the countries and . Chicago via New
Orleans. This is intended as an offset to
the New York scheme of trade develop
ment via Tampa, Florida.
A Small SUed Fight.
New York, March 5. A small riot oc
curred early this morning at Broadway
and Grand streets,' between union and
non-union cloak makers. The police
soon stopped the fight and made a num
ber of arrests. -

that the company owe him $480 back

ASTI-PABNEL1ITES GLOOMY,
The Success of trie '-Uncrowned K.inr"
Seems. Inevitable.
Londox, March 3. The inevitable
triumph of Parnell is causing much
searching of heart mong the liberals.
It is beginning to be darkly whispered
that Ijrladstone 8 action was hasty and
his letter imprudent, and, in fact, "if the
party could hark back to the eve of the
verdict m the divorce suit it would leave
the member for Cork alone. The sug
gestion that home rule be dropped is re-
garaea as impossiDie. its ettect would
be to drive the Irish vote in England
over to the conservatives and make the
liberals certain of losing the next general
election. It is not surprising that in the
circumstances suggestions are alreadv
afloat that terms must after all be made
with Parnell. If Gladstone becomes
convinced that Parnell is going to carry
the Irish people with him he will dis
cover some means of reforming an
alliance with the gentlemen whom two
months ago he ordered about his busi
ness. Anti-Parnellites are becoming
faint-hearted. They are finding out that
Ireland is going with Parnell and some
thing like a panic reigns in the party.
With one exception all the gentlemen
named for the American mission have
declined.
FIGHT DECLAKED OFF.
Decision Rendered in the Mltchell-I.n-Blanche
Contest.
San Francisco, March 3. The direct
ors of the. California Athletic Club held
a meeting tonight to consider the award
ing of the victory in the recent fight be
tween Young Mitchell and George La
Blanche, "The Marine." Charges .had
had been made tliat the fight was sold.
The directors decided tonight that the
fight was not to the satisfaction of the
club and declared it off and barred La
Blanche and his seconds from further
appearance in the ring. The question of
compensation to Mitchell will be consid
ered at a future meeting.

WEATHER SIONAtS.
Storms Developing on the Atlantic
Coast. With Pair Weather West of
the Mississippi.
Washington, March 4. The storm
that was central yesterday in Arkansas
has moved northeastward to Ontario. A
storm appears to be developing off the
middle of the Atlantic coast. Clearing
condition has moved slowly northeast
ward to Newfoundland. Another clear-
ing condition moved slowlv southeast
ward to Manitoba. General rain and
snow fell in all districts east of the Miss
issippi river, except in the Gulf coast,
Temperature has risen in the lower lake
region and the Atlantic states, and
generally fallen elsewhere. Snow is in
dicated for New England, fair weather
for regions west of the Mississippi, gen
erally clearing and colder weather in
other districts. -
Rich Strike of Gold Reported From the
Santiam.
Albany, Or., March 4. Owners of
stock in'tne Santiam mines are excited
today over the richest strike in the his
tory of these ' mines. A. Halversen,
Henry Walters, William Burnett and
Fred fceerschell arrived last night from,
the mines bringing with them specimens
of ore, which they recently took out
from the Bonanza mine, owned by the
Albany Mining and Milling Company.
It is thickly studded with free gold, arid
is from the main ledge containing a large
mass of similar ore, which promises a rich
output that will astonish the mining
world. Two men in ten hours broke off
three tons of ore, readv for the mill, all
of a like nature, which, on its face will
assay $10,000 to $20,000 per ton. The
men were in the hill 180 feet, and 110
feet from the surface, when they struck
this mass of ore, which seems inexhaus
tible. It equals the richest strike in
the history of California or Montana
mines, and foretells the biggest excite
ment in the history of the state.
Senator Hearst's Stables. ,.
New Yobk, March 4. Since the death
of Senator Hearst there has been much
speculation as to the probable disposition
of his racing horses and valuable stud,
and the betting has been five to one that
his stable would be sold. Trustworthy
news was received here last night that
once again the talent has been wrong in
its conclusion, for it is asserted that
William R. Hearst, the senator's son,
will not only maintain the present sta
ble and that the twenty head of stock at
Sheepshead bay will fulfill all engage
ments which have been made, but he
will also establish a new stud ranch in
Baricoa, N. M., from which he will' re
coup from year to year his stock of racers.
Joseph Clark, the well-known horseman,
is now at the San Simeon ranch in Cal.,
selecting for the principle races this year
new blood and new surprises. - Also the
t ick of the stock is to be taken to Baricoa.
It is said Mr. Hearst simply consents to
continue the existence of his father's
stable because to sell now would mean a
sacrifice, and with proper care it is sure
to prove a good investment.-
WAS IT LINCOLN'S MVKDEBEB?
A Dfail Georgia Clergyman Said to be
.1. Wilkes Booth.
Chicago, March 5. A morning paper
says it is generally believed by the peo
ple of Atlanta, Ga., that the Rev. J. G.
Armstrong, who recently died in that
city was J. Wilkes Booth. His resem
blance to Booth was remarkable. He
even had a gun-shot wound on his leg,
and a scar on his neck. It is rumored
since the man's death that he committed
suicide. An effort will be made to find
some of the man's private papers.
Fear of High Water.
Albuqcekc, X. M., March 5. The
Rio Grande River is beginning to swell
and there are fears of its overflow, as
the weather is becoming warmer and the
large body of snow has fallen all over the
state is commencing to melt.

Kau-ly Chickens.
Early hatching is necessary to success
in the poultry yard. Now, as warmth
is a requisite for rearing early chickens,
provident poultry keepers have made
provisions for securing the same. The
hens are provided with dry houses, well
sheltered from east winds, in which to
set, and are punctually fed and watered.
The chicks may be saved by farmers and
ordinary poultry keepers who do not use
incubators by the use of artificial brood-
era. These latter, unlike the incubat
ors, may be employed by any one who
exercises average common sense in their
management. The newly hatched chicks
are taken from the nest as oon as out of
the shells and placed in the brooder,
where they are kept until the brood is
all out. The hen and chicks are then "
placed in a warm glazed coop, and them
kept until strong enough to look out for
themselves.
The principal conditions necessary to
success in brooders are plenty of fresh
air and sufficient beat to prevent the
chicks from crowding. . Some brooders
are warmed by tanks or pipes of hot
water. The hot water may bo supplied
by an ordinary stove "water back" or
by a coil of pipe in a stove. A well sus
tained beat of about 80 degs. is essential
for' the first week, as a chill is fatal.
After that time the temperature may be
lowered to about 70 degs In severe
weather it is necessary to keep the chick
ens within doors until about three weeks
old. In ordinary weather tliey may bt
allowed a run fenced in with small mesh
wire netting and connecting with a
warm, dry and well protected coop.
Chickens hatched out of reason ought to.
be fed with great punctuality. Conv-.
should also be given to them very early
in the morning and very late in the day.
How to Suhcru'e Weeds. -One
important point in keeping a faru-.
clear from weeds is to see that these '
germs are not imported in purchased
6eeds. Weeds are often introduced by
the farmer's own animals. Horses that
have been fed at the town stables, and
cattle that have been allowed to foragi.
on the highways, may each be the means
of bringing obnoxious weeds onto this- .
farm. For the hoed crops clean cultiva
tion is the antidote. Cut the weeds off
at the surface of the ground at a tiice
when they are at their best that is, at the
time of flowering and before the seed hin
grown sufficient to germanate. This i.
the best method of dealing with seed:V
where they have become a pest in mead
ows and partnirea. . In the latter sheep
are very efficient weed destroyers, as
they will browse closely many varieties
that cattle will not touch.
Unless rich ground is closely covered
with useful plants it is quite certain to
produce weeds. Nothing surpasses clover
for smothering weeds. If sown thickly,
and stock is kept off from it after the
mowing, so that some of the seed from
the second crop will be scattered, it will
gain complete possession of the field, to
the exclusion of weeds.
Agricultural Notes.
Fordhook early watermelon is claimed
to be the earliest melon of its size and of
the finest quality.
Nitrogen is the most costly ingredient
of manures. One thousand pounds of
stable manure rarely contain more than
five pounds of nitrogen, says Rural New
Yorker.'
I The merino will no doubt always be
the most successful sheep to grow on our
high prairies and dry plateaus. The En
glish mutton breeds thrive better in the
low altitudes and damp climates. -!
The new Giant white cucumber is cer
tainly a very distinct variety. It is de
Ejribed as growing to an immenas edze.
