THE ITATA'S ESCAPE.
Residents of Iquique
are Rejoicing.
MEDIATION OFFERS REJECTED.
Loyal and Rebel Forces Preparing Tor
Henewed Attacks In Chill-Taltal
Captured by Insurgent!.
New Yohk, May 28 A cablegram from
Iquique Bays: There ie great rejoicing in
tilis city at the escape of the Itata. It is
now believed that she will reach some
friendly port without further trouble.
Her eluding of the fleet Charleston is the
talk all over the city, for the news of
the Charleston's arrival at Callao with
out the Itata has spread like wild fire.
But even had the Charleston caught
the Itata, it is very doubtful if any of the
arms or ammunition which the latter
vessel received from the schooner Robert
and Minnie at Kan Diego, Cal., would
have been found. The general impres
sion among the best informed people
here is that the Chilian warship Esmer
elda long since transferred the much de
sired munition of w ar from the Itata and
has by tier subsequent actions pretty
well pulled the wool ovor the eyes of the
captain of the Charleston.

2S The Anglo-American publishes a
statement to the effect that the govern
ment has allowed the cruiser Esmeralda
to coal.
London, May 28 A message from
Santiago, Chili, by way of Buenos
Avres, states that the German and
British ministers have renewed their
oiler of mediation between Balmaceda
and the Insurgents, and thut Balmaceda
has rejected the proposition, stating the
subjection of the rebels was but a
question of a short time. The president
has ordered an advance on the rebel
garrisons, and the loyal fleet is preparing
for another sea attack on the rebel
vessels in the harbor. The admirals of
the fleet, all but one, remained loyal,
and have been in consultation at Val
paraiso as to a final and decisive blow.
The minister of foreign affairs says
that Bolivia has signed a treaty with
the Congressional party, to take the
place of the old truce that has been in
existence between Bolivia and Chili.
This new treaty cedes in perpetuity to
Chili, represented by the Congressional
partv, the territory occupied 10 years
ago by Chili, as an offset to the debt
which was saddled upon Bolivia as a re
sult of the war. This recognition of the
Congressional party practically antago
nizes Balmaceda.
Paris, May 28 It is claimed by the
agents of the Chilian Congressional
party in this city that the insurgents
have recaptured the town of Taltal.
The telegram regarding the bombard
ment of Iquique by the Chilian govern
ment warship Imperial ami the torpedo
cruisers is utterly false, notwithstanding
the assertions of the government people.
Washington, May 28 The emitter
Charleston is now at Callao, IVrn, where
she arrived yesterday. She will prob
ably remain at Callao three days to coal,
and will thon proceed to Arica, Chili.
The movements of the Itata are still a
mystory. She has not been seen at any
point since she was reported by the
l'acific Mail steamer aB uhout 05 miles
north of Acapulco on the morning
of the 15th, and from her not putting in
some of the coaBt ports for coal, it is gen
erally believed that she has steered
a direct course for Chili and
must be now very near home.
The cruisers Kan Francisco and Balti
more are now at Iquique and their
chances for taking the Itata seems to be
much better than those of the Charles
ton. They Are No Longer Connected With

This action is not a surprise to the train
men and results from tho refusal of the

lie said that the innumerable cells of
the human body were supplied by 12
mineral salts in the mood, which, wncn
their proper proportion waa interfered
with in any manner, caused diseases of
different natures, according to winch
mineral salt was deficient or in excess of
its natural ratio; that is, the disturb
ance of tins ratio put the human system
into a proper condition to absorb the
disease germs that are constantly floating
in tne air. Jiy providing Vi speciuc
medicines, by w hich the proper propor
tion of mineral salt is restored health is
regained and disease driven out by furn
ishing direct to the blood the same
molecules that a perfect digestion and
assimilation would furnish. The doses
administered supply to the tissue cells
the special salts, the lack of which is
the cause of all diseases.
Tho normal condition is restored
through tho natural processes. The so
vailed medicines have no part in the
restoration. No improvement can bo
made on the human organism in this
respect. When an abnormal condition
arises, harmony can lie restored by re
toring the balance of the organic salts,
hut not by introducing poison into the
system.
Under the advance of biochemistry it
haa become possible to apply to each
kind of tissue its own definite and pecu
liar salt, according to the requirements
in disease. By the distinctive systems
our physicians are guided in their choice
of the particular cell-salts required, the
imnse variety and numerous com
plications of morbid states offering vast
scope for exact medical practice where

scientific medicine of this advanced era.

Specimens of Mistakes of Mure Than
Usual I.udlcrousness
The mistakes in newspaper offices
arising from the faulty chirography of
occasional contributors have led to the
publication of a few specimens, says the
Rochester Post-Express. The Oswego
Palladium refers to one instance, that of
a Syracuse clergyman who gave the
manuscript of a sermon of his to a re
porter of the Standard, for the purpose
of making an abstract of his discourse
for publication. The manuscript said of
John Wesley that "though only a pres
byter, he himself ordained Thomas Coke
to the office of episcopacy."
The preacher's penmanship was so
bad, however, that the reporter made
out this statement to mean and read,
"though only a Presbyterian, he himself
ordained his cook to the office of episco
pacy." The Brooklyn Eagle follows
this up by relating how some manu
script of Dr. Talmage came to its office
atone time in which occuried the words :
"My text finds our Lord." When the
words appeared in print they were
neatly transformed to read: "My tall
friend, our Lord." Horace Greeley's
manuscript was a puzzle to most people
and therefore it need not be wondered
at when he wrote : '"Tis true, 'tis pity,
'tis pity, 'tis true," the types made him
any: "'Tis two, 'tis fifty; yes, 'tis fifty
two." On a Rochester daily a few years ago
a reporter wound up a pketch of a little
boy who ha I died from the clfects of an
explosion of firecrackers which he car
ried in his pockets in theso words : "His
afflicted and bereaved parents will have
the sympathy," etc. Tho announce
ment as it appeared in print was an offer
of sympathy to "his alllicted and burned
pants."
A New York compositor, accustomed
to Betting up the marine news of his
paper, and who thereforo found it con
venient to sot up and save names of
cities and towns along the Atlantic
coast, made himself famous by an amus
ing error. His copy described how a
gentleman had met death by the "hand
of divine Providence." To save time he
reached up among the lint for the word
Providence, of Rhodo Island fame, but
in his haste took the wrong word.
When the paper came out the acquaint
ances of the deceased learned for the
IliBt time that their former friend had
been romoved by the "hand of divine
Nantucket."
The Government Will Supply Alaskans
With Deer Iustead of Doge.
Madison, Wis., May 28 Tho govern
ment has asked Captain I. C. Curtis, of
this city, a retired army oflicer, to go to
St. Lawrence island in the Uehring Sea
to take charge of a station about to be
established there for a year. The In
terior department desires to have a sta
tion on this island and begin the breed
ing of reindeer there for the Innuittsand
Ksiiuimaux to use instead of dogs.
It ib the purpose of the government to
import roindeer from Siberia to the
island, and a number of Siberians with
them, to teach the natives how to raise
and care for tho animals. A reindeer
park will be established, and as soon as
the animals are ooiainea in siiincient
numbers, some of them will be taken to
Alaska and distributed among the peo
ple of that country, and thuB the dogs,
now used for sledging in the United
States' Arctic possessions will be dis
placed by deer, which will form nutri
tion in case of emergency, whereas dogs
do not furnish the most palatable meat.
St. Lawrence island is about 8.' miles
from the coast of Asia and about 50 from
Alaska in tiering Ben. An Episcopal
mission and school will be established.
On Trial for Itealstlu( the Will of Mod.
From the ciiit'Hgo Herald.)
AmkhicI's, Ua., May 4 J. J. Dukes, a
wealthy planter of this county, is on
trial charged with resisting the will of
God. Mr. Dukes' plantation adjoins
the old Andersonville stockade. He is a
member of the Hardshell Baptist
church. Two months ago he began tho
erection of a $10,000 house, which he
finished by the erection of a lightning
roil over it. His co-workers in the
church viewed with alarm this heretical
performance, and besought him to re
move the offending rod. The whole
congregation, headed by the pastor,
called upon him one night last week
and labored to convince him that ho
should not resist the will of God by a
vain device to keep off such Biectric
bolts as He might send that way. Fail
ing to move Mr. Dukes, charges were
preferred against him of having resisted
the Divine will, and the trial is now in
progress.

Kalded by the Sheriff last Nlght-Nlne
Inmates Captured.
Skatti.k, May 28 Sheriff Woolery
made a raid on the denizens oj White
chapel last evening and arrested nine
inmates after a most exciting time.
It has been an open secret since the
appointment of Chief, of Police Bolton
Rogers on the 1st of last April, that
Sheriff Woolery had on divers occasions
said that Whitechapel should never be
allowed to open up or public gambling
be permitted under the present adminis
tration of municipal affairs. But about
10 days ago the former Whitechapel
women began moving back into their
old quarters.
Three or four days ago Sheriff Woolery
having for 10 days past collected evi
dence against the inmates of White
chapel, caused a large number of war
rants to be issued, charging the women
with vagrancy. Armed with these war
rants of arrest Sheriff Woolery, accom
panied by Deputies Jack McDonald, Jud
Noble and others, marched from the
Sheriff's office at exactly 8 :45 last night,
bound for Whitechapel.
With the orders, "Round them up,
boys," the raid began. Such a raid as
it w as ! Half-dressed women ran from

voices. They were frightened as never
before during a raid from the police.
The Japanese inmates seemed more be
side themselves than their white sisters
in sin. They ran from room to room in
the vain endeavor to hide under a bed or
elsewhere. Meanwhile the deputies
stumbled along in the darkness alter
them. The chase was an exciting one.
During this chase the deputies discov
ered what was not known to any one,
perhaps, save the police and the women
themselves, and that is that the 100 or
more Whitechapel cribs are nothing
more nor lesH than one immense one
story building. From every room to the
room adjoining are from two three doors
or avenues of escape. It is one system
or net-work of doors. They were put
there doubtless for the special purpose
of evading pursuit and substituting one
woman for another when a robbery had
been committed.
The raid proper lasted about twenty
minutes. During this time nine inmates,
the number arrested, were huddled to
gether in one room. There were four
white women and five Japanese. The
latter undertook to delay the Jpro
ceedings by refusing to dress; but they
were marched oil" in short order. It is
quite possible that the news of the raid
leaked out beforehand in some manner,
as no less than 110 women at a time have
been seen in Whitechapel proper during
the past three or four days. The rest
doubtless fled from the wrath that was
coming.
With one or two exceptions, sheriffs
in the past have never sought to make
arrests in matters pertaining to the
city. When seen by a reporter regard
ing his actions, Sheriff" Woolery said :
"Whitechapel is and always has been
inhabited by the very lowest element of
thieves and prostitutes. There is not a
woman in the place other than prosti
tutes and thieves. It is a disgrace to
our city, and 1 propose to blot it out of
existence. It shall not he opened up
again in any shape or form. I am backed
in this movement by the better element
of the city. I have a petition numer
ously signed by reputable citizens call
ing me to act in the matter. I gave the
police fair warning that it would not be
permitted to run. They have failed to
close it up and hence I act. Men have
been robbed in those cribs times without
number. You never hear of a conviction
of the thieves. This raid is only the be
ginning: I did not realize that the place
was such a hell-hole as it is."
WILLIAM AND HIS S 11 U.K.
An Orlalunl Charaeter from Iowa fines
to Chtcairo and Gets Into Trouble,
From the Chicago Tribune.
The moat original character with
whom the police have had to do for
months struck town yesterday. His
name is William Hexford and he hails
from a farm near Sioux City, la. Wil
liam is a hlondo-faeed. long-eared conn
try boy of II) years, wears blue overalls,
a hickory shirt, and an expansive, guile
Iosb smile. After leaving tho train Wil
liam bought a l!"-eent dinner and then
found himself penniless and alone in a
big, strange city.
Hut William was not dismayed. He
trudged along Milwaukee avenue gazing
at the sights and attracting no small de
gree of attention himself, lie stopped
to look in the window of George Toborg's
gun store. Then he grinned more
broadly than ever and entered the store.
He priced several revolvers, and
finally selected a large double-action one
and said he'd take it. He also said he
would take a box of cartridges and start
ed to load the weapon.
The proprietor nnxiouslv interfered,
and ollered to do the loading himself,
fearful that this guileless country lad
did not know how. Then Mr. Toberg
explained how the weapon worked, and
handed it back to William with a "Konr-dollars-please"
smile which made Will
iam grin broader than ever.
"Hand over yer cash, Mister," said
William, still smiling, and levelling
the loaded revolver at the proprietor's
head.
The hitter's grin turned into a look of
terror. He threw up his hands and
gasped: "Murder! murder!" and fell,
rather than ran, the whole length of the
store, and out of doors. There he found
OHicers Pictz and Hositer.
The two officers, with dark lanterns
ami cocked revolvers, searched the rear
of the store for the guileless William,
and then groped their wav down to the
basement
William was found behind a
post, revolver in hand. He received the
orlicers with his habitual grin, and threw
up his hands remarking:
"Well, I'll be gosh denied !"
William is lodging at the Kawaon
street police station, where he has al
ready become a ureat favorite. He con
tided to his new-found friends that he
thought it would be an easy matter to
replenish his pocketbook in Chicago by
holding up people. He said he was
"down to Dmaha" a couple of years ago
THE WEEKLY HEtPNER GAZETTE,
and "held up a well-dressed feller and
pulled $500 outen his pockets."
"But," continued William, in smiling
confidence, and giving his overalls a
hitcii, "they ketched me and sent me up
for a year. Then I went back to farm
in'. On my way back to Chicago I
stepped off for a week ag'in and had jest
fair luck."
William says he has no "pertickiler"
objections to going to Joliet "fora spell."

Horrible Kite That Was Carried Out
With Much Ceremony.
lloston Journal. -Woman
in Fiji theoretically occupied
a high position, being regarded as an
essential and integral part of her hus
band. A man was not considered com
plete in this world without his wife,
nor could he pass into the next
unless bIio accompanied him. There
fore, the death of a man was
always clonely followed by that of
his wife, and in the case of a chief by
that of all his harem. If a married
woman died a passport to the shades was
furnished her in the shape of her hus
band s beard, wlncn was cut on ana
placed under her left armpit.
In case of the death ot an unmarried
youth of either sex the person was
doomed to wander about in an inter
mediate retrion between heaven and
earth until one of the opposite gender
came along to complete ,fhe. couple.
When anyone died a w hale's tooth was
placed
his or her hand, to
be
thrown at the tree which stands as
guido poet on the road to the other
world. If the ghost of the deceased hit
this tree with his or Ivor missile accept
ance with the deities of the unseen was
indicated. Beyond this tree sat "Nangga
Nungga," guardian of the path, who
permitted no n.an to pass unless he had
his wife with him. This spirit was,
however, credulous and easily deceived,
and often had grandmothers and maiden
aunts palmed off on him as the wives of
chiefs who essayed to pass him.'
The t ljians were always a practical
and far-seeing people, and w here a man
left behind him a stout and buxom
widow his kinsfolk often voted it fool
ishness to fool her away on a ghost.
Accordingly, she was appropriated by
some man who was strong enough to
drag her away and maintain his claim to
her with the club, and some tough and
ancient female relative suffered the cord
in her place. This was not accomplished
without a terrible row; the widow, as
well as all her connections, resisting
him tooth and nail, for it was considered
etiquetto for the relatives of the de
ceased to resent as an insult a proposal
to marry the widow. Obstruction was
not, however, carried too far, and
although the wooer might take the
marks of his courtship to the grave, the
opposition always drew off before he
was quite overpowered.
Widow strangling was carried out
with imposing ceremonies. All the
relatives of the deceased assembled in
the hut which he had occupied in life,
and to them the widow was brought in.
Her brother, if she had one, was the
executioner, and the instrument was his
waist cloth, which he unwound at her
entrance. The victim- waa made
to assume a position on hands
and knees, and the long cloth
was given a turn about her neck and
held on either side by her brother
and another man. She was then in
structed to expel all the air in her lungs
and hold up her hand as a signal that
all was ready, which, being done, the
cloth was drawn tight and a swift and
nearly painless death ensued.
Where a man had but one wife
she was laid side by side with him
in the grave. In the case of
chiefs possessed of several consorts,
all their wives were strangled and
placed in the grave for him to lie upon.
Th ia, in the direct and expressive speech
of Fiji, w as called "carpeting the grave."

The first named was wrecked through
the stealings of its president, John C.

Though Lucas died two and a halt years

recorded by an knglish surgeon. A
patient, a man now aged 45, when only
7 years old put an ordinary pin in his
mouth while playing to guard it from
another child from w hom he had taken
it. While he was running and laughing
it was drawn into the larynx. Sharo
pain was felt, which, however, soon
passed on. and nottung more was
thought of the pin, the man keeping in
good health for 24 years after the acci
dent. Symptoms of a nature pointing
to consumption tnen developed.
The man was troubled with constant
cough and huskiness of voice, and noth
ing which he tried gave him relief, al
though he waa assured that his disease
was not serious. After a tit of violent
coughing one day a dark, hard object
was expelled, which proved to be the
long-lost and forgotten pin. The sur
geon subsequently satisfied himself that
the pin must have remained imbedded
in the larynx ever since the accident
that is, for 38 years. All the symptoms
disappeared as soon as the pin haa been
ei ilied, and the man made a goodre-coverv.

The Oregon Land Company
Was specially organized for the purpose of
tracts of land, and hasduring the past two years, bought and sutxllvn ed over
3200 acres of land into live to 20 acre tracts. I he success of this undertaking is
shown in the fact that oui of 2S0 tracts of land placed in the market, 225 have been
sold. We claim that ten acres of choice hind in fruit will yield a larger income
han 100 acres in wheat in the Mississippi valley.
We also make valuable improvements in the way of roads, fences, etc. We
can sell a small tract of land for the same price per acre as you would have to pay
on a large farm. Send for pamphlet, maps and price list.
