Disastrous WrTk off the Tillamook Coast Three Million Pounds of Powder Ord.red from San francisco French Demands on Ihlna. Washington, March 18. Senator Gallinger wis at the capitol today for the first time since his return from Cuba. When requested to make a statement as to his observations on the condition of affairs on the island, he responded; "Ynu ean sipn my name to auy pic ture you may draw of utter wretched nsss and destitution and hellish ness in that country. The reconcentrados ire perishingr by thousands for want of the commonest necessaries of life, The best information obtainable leads 'o the conclusion that there have been beyond doubt 400.000 deaths as a result f Spain's brutal policy, and many nore are occurrins from day to day. ''There is a divergency of opinion -n tbe island as to tbe probabilities of ar between Spain and the United -States, and I am sure that I am within the bounds of truth when I say that ilmost the entire native population .voulfi welcome any turn of events. however tragic, that would wrest Cuba froin Spanish domination. This is true not only of those avowedlv fayor- tble to independence, but of many from the ranks of the Spanish syrana- tnizers, tvboareat heart advocates or Cuban independence." UNION WAS PERFECT.

RELIEF FOR THECUBANS President McKinley Preparing Take Definite Action. to Twenty-Five Liven Lost and Many Injured at a Fire in Butte. Hontona SO. OO Worth of Property Lost. New Yohk, March 21. A dispatch to the Tribune from Havana says: The Spanish inquiry into the Maine disaster has one to pieces in seeking to establish tne accident theory. This admission is privately made in govern ment circles. The nature of the board's report will not be changed. Tbe explosion will be charged to un known causes, but the Spanish finding will be with a view -of making a case to be passed on by a third party. The work of the Spanish divers has not been thorough. Apparently they have found fo little evidence on which a theory of internal explosion can be based that the Spanish court is not willing to stand unequivocally on the theory of accident, which it set out to maintain. The fasts have been known for three or four days. They may ac count fo- tbe statements from Madrid that the Maine incident will not be a cause of war between the two coun tries, and also hints at arbitrating the dispute on the question of facts. This talk is semi-official. Tbe Span ish recognize the improbability of suc cessfully controverting tbe case which will be presented when the report of Captain Sampson and his associates on the American board of Inquiry is published. They have had an inkling hat the evidence on which tho ex ternal explo.-ion dun to foul play will be charged, is meant to satisfy, not simply tbe American people, bu. the judgment of experts throughout ih world. How strongly this conclusion of the American board is fortified will soon be kno to. The ene received from Madrid is to ave a counter case ready, so a sus pension of tho world's judgment can be asked until diplomacy can arrange satisfactory settlement. The evi- dent hope of Blanco's government is to keep the Maine incident entirely j distinct from other Cuban questions Notwithstanding this lack of confi. dence in their own theory of accident, it cannot be learned that the author ities are doing anything to uncover the conspirators who are responsible for the blowing up of the Maine.

The Hale house, a big three-story building, used as a boarding and rooming-house for men in the employ of tbe Anaconda Mining com any, was entirely destroy . ed by fire early this moriiing. Tbe building is on East Broadway, and when the fire broke out, shortly after 3 o'clock, there were 400 men in it. O these, many a e now in hospitals and ethers who escaped almost without clothes, are scattered all over the town. Until the safe, now buried under tons of debris, is removed, tbe books examined and the roll called, it will not be known how many ptrished. Estimates of the dead, which now run up to 2', may be cut down; as tbe men report for duty or to the police. It ir known that 0 men did not show up at tbe mines this morning, though man of these doubtless are with friends, re covering from their fright. The fire started in the basement, and soon was beyond control. The balls were filled with smoke and i was Impossible for many to have es caped hy that route.

Remarkable Intelligence Sh' the Animals. TTew Zealand i a country that delies largely upon the labor of dogs as op posed to the toil of men, says the New York Mail and Express. A man with several dogs, trained one and all to a proper pitch, can cope with the duties of a large number of men without doge in any work that is purely pastoral. I Last year sheep dogs were an impor tant factor in the care of 1G,'000,000 sheep, which produced 80,000,000 pounds of wool. The dogs are almost as great n sight as the sheep on the four annual events of mustering, named respective ly shearing: mustvr (November), strag glers' muster (February), weaning muster (March), autumn muster (May). The muster of every sheep on the run is imperative, and those are rare excep tions where less than four musters are deemed sufficient. A muster is arranged on recognized lines. As nearly a pos sible the men work in line, within sight of each other The top man drives the sheep gradually down to the man below him, who passes them on till they reach the man working the flats. There Is no precise rule, as each man can keep his mob of cheep till the beat is mustered. All this time the doge have been work ing in every course on the beat, not en masse, but each in his own sphere, as the shepherd commands. Should he have half a dozen dogs they would comprise two "heading" or "leading'' dogs, two "driving" or "huntaways" and two "handy" dogs. The "handy" dojr is a dog able to turn its attention with equal exactness to anything. There is little erring; ence his education is ac complished his owner can depend-upon, him in any crisis. The dogs used in this colony on sheep farms are selected from Scots and German collies and the Smithfleld sheep dog, and vary as much in size and class as they do in price. A dog fitted for the capabilities of a small farm could be purchased for a sovereign, while men who are in residence on back country stations of 200,000 acres re peatedly pay from 10 to 13 for their fancy.

How to Exercise Durum the tils- ter Months. Keaesaarr Con re to Praacrra Hit. ' a alar Dcvalapaaeat and Good Health A Simple . System. Every wheelman and wheelwomaa w ill soon be confronted with the un pleasant necessity of laying aside his or her health-giving steed and lapsing back into that sluggish condition which comes to those who do not exercise. What must be done is for the cyclist to find a substitute for the exercise which has freshened his blood and given him a ruddy cheek end healthful body. This problem is one which has excited the keenest interest among cyclists general ly, and Prof. M. J. Mac Levy, a New York instructor in physical culture, has demonstrated that the accompanying suggestions will bring about desired re sults in a remarkably short space of time. It is a well known fact that during the past season so many cyclists have built their systems up by the use of the wheel so that to stop cycling all at once would be almost injurious. It would be like a morphine fiend suddenly deprived of his drug. The reaction would be more than he could stand. By following a few simple rules there Is no reason, why any rider should not keep in condl- -tion. i Physicians state that the lungs of cyclists have many more cells in active operation than those who follow a pure ly sedentary life. To this end it is very important that the chest development be maintained. Let the cyclist raise the windows of his sleeping- apartment, top and bottom, about half a foot each. thus affording the free circulation of air. It is best that no tight clothing be worn during this exercise, which should be taken before breakfast. Throw chest out, head up, and, while stand ing on the same spot, let the limbs move as it running, only, of course, make ho progress. Although every muscle used when cycling is not brought into play in this exercise, most of them are.. Csre should be taken not to overdo this exer cise the first time, as over-exertion is in jurious. Each day the exercise can be increased until one can, to all intents and purposes, scorch 20 miles without moving an inch. In order to develop the calf muscles and those of the thigh which are not brought into play by stationary ru- . ning, one should sit in a chair and beve pound dumbbells strapped to the shoe. Place the foot horizontal with the thigh and keep this movement up for five minutes. The muscles will be found to be much benefited by this exercise. The duration of the exercise can best be judged by the cyclist from the fatigue it actuates. , Now stand upright, and, throwing the shoulders back, abdomen well In, raise on the toes. It is well to count the number of elevations and increase the same gradually till about 60 or 60 can be done. Next the cyclist sh'ould take core that hia joint do not suffer stiffening by assuming what ia known as the hip-toed position, and by hopping on both' feet at once. The joints will be materially benefited. A patent is a very good thing for the person owning it, but every cyclist has in his own possession means for exer cise that never have been and never will be patented, but which, after all, are the best Cincinnati Enquirer. MATCHBOX w WOMAN So Laager tha Monopolist af This Convenience, Until this year the matchbox bsslieen the unquestioned, exclusive property of man. Never once did he think of such a thing as the fairer sex borrowing it. lie may have had preaentimer.t of her laying claim to hia necktie, but his matchbox never, says the Chicogo Tribune. But the bicycle girl, who makes what ever she wants possible, has now laid siege to man's matchbox. If she con templated riding at night she needs matches to light her lamp, snd necee- arily she must carry them in a match box. That is the reason thst there are any number of new matchboxes this year which sre smaller and more dainty , than anything in this line ever seen be fore." "Do the girls buy them? a prominent jeweler was asked. To which question he answered: "Yes, indeed. The small er sizes sre made particularly for their special use." The prettiest of the new matcblwxes for girls are of gold with an enameled decoration. The enameling either takes the form of .a college or yacht club flag or it resembles a hand-printed miniature showing a girl on a wheel or the bead of a dog. Many of these matchboxes are made with a concealed recess for a photograph. It is only when a certain spring in touched that the pic ture can be seen, so skillfully it is hid den away. The silver matchboxes, decorated with the outline of a tiny bicycle iu enamel, are also new and much less ex pensive. A Hopeful Sla-a. Oklahoma Belle I think pap 'a a goin' ter f aver ye.
