M’ashington, Jan. 2.—President Roosevelt's New Year's reception was one of the most brilliant events In Washington society history. All call ers were afforded the opportunity of greeting the President and Mrs. Roose velt and ezchanging with them the compliments of the new year. No dis tinctions were made except such as were rendered nec«-saary in pr«-ser- vation of order. The general public for the first time had an opportunity to see the wldely-h<*ralded improvements in the White House—improvements which when completed will have cost about >600.000. in addition to a desire per sonally to wish the President and Mrs. Roosevelt a Happy New Year, hun dreds were attracted by a wish to see the White House in its new and hand some interior finish and furnishing. To many who were familiar with th«* interior of the mansion as it was a year ago tb«* chang«»s made were a revelation. While in a general way tin* form of the Interior has been re tained In beauty and effectiveness, It is wholly different. Just 102 years ago President John Adams and his wife opened the White House with a New Year's reception to their friends and to me publis gen erally. The dawn of the first fete day within th«* walla since bwome hlator lc was accompanied by the noise of saw and hammer, as was this day. On aeount of the unfinlsh«*«! con dltlon of the lower fl«x>r, President and Mrs. Adams receive«! their guests in th«* r<H>tn on the second floor now occupied by President Itoosevelt as a library. While the improvements now are more nearly completed than was the mansion Itself at that time, it will b<* several months before the workmen will hav<> flnlshtxl their task. It was a merry «lay for the Roose velt children Prior to th«* reception they had n Jolly time In the lower part of the house They manifested the liveliest Interest 111 all tin* arrange ments. Th«* President was In excellent splr Its. and Mrs. Roosevelt never seemed happier or mon* gracious. The Pres ident was attired In a frock suit, and the only «lash of color almut his at tire was a tie of grayish tint. Shortly after the receiving party assembled In th«« blueroom, th«» reception proper be gan. DÜCUARF. WAR UPON SHEEP. Grant County Settlers Urging aTwo-Mile Limit Law.

An organized band of horse-thieves is operating on the ranges of the Southern Oregon mountains.

Or., Jan. 1.—Grant an«l Baker County cattlemen and set- tiers are agitating for a two-mile lim- it law. similar to that in operation In Idaho and California, by which sheep ranging Is not permitted within two miles of any settler s habitation. This puts a new phase on the bit ter and bloody range feud that exists in thia county between home and for elgn stockmen, for while the move In Grant County is apparently one of settlers against sheep owners, it is really a step against the invading hordes of Xiorrow, Gilliam, Wheeler, Crook and other county sheep which pour in here annually for summer range. Simultaneously comes the tidings that Grant County stockmen are preparing for organization suf ficiently strong to keep out these sheep and reserve n«*zt season's range for home atockmen. It makes the Spring Outlook for trouble in the brighter than ever, though the bril- llant outlook for range war in 1902 was more than fulfilled. !

Honolulu. Jan. 3.—The voyage of the • able ship Silvertown was eventful and at times unpleasantly exciting. Twelve hours out from San Francisco the cable-ship was beset by bad w-ather. whi( h continued with the ex ception of one day to the end of the voyage. Variable winds that at times approached the velocity of gales, heavy seas that buffeted her about, retarded the passage, as well as en- dangered the safety of the cable; in tact, every adverse condition that Is usually encountered in the landing of ;• cable was met with and at times made the task most hazardous. A more perfect day could hardly be imagined than Sunday. December 14. when the shore end was landed near the Cllfr House, of San Francisco. The I end of the line was brought on board the steamer at 5 30 in the pvening and ¡the start was made at 12:30 Monday i morning. The favorable conditions ■ ontinn.il until 11 o'clock on the morning of that day. when the vessel tan into a squall of wind and rain that came out of the west. Steering , through a southwesterly course, the Silvertown offered a broad starboard , beam to the storm. Soon the seas were whipped Into confusion, rolling the vessel in a manner most danger ous to the cable. The velocity of the wind increased, and early in the after noon great green seas boarded the starboard bow, and swept along the deck and «-scaped into the sea through the port scuppers, Toward evening ropes were stretched about the deck and everything was made last. The rain ceased, but the storm force continued with unabated through the night. Under ordinary conditions the line is paid out 7 per cent faster than the speed of th«* vessel. This was increas- ed during the storm to 10 per cent. Even with this concession the strain «as terrific. As the ship lifted an<l lurched, the great drum around which the strand was passing would almost • ease to revolve one moment, only to resume with a rush the next, render- ing the life of the men in the tanks a hazard. The dynamometer regulat ing the speed of and the strain on the line at such times fluctuated wild ly. rushing from an indicated strain of two tons or less up to four and even five tons. When It is understood that the breaking strain is 8% tons, it must be apparent that failure to re relieve the strain promptly meant dis aster to the precious line, and its loss in 2500 fathoms would have meant a long and serious delay in the comple tion of the work of laying the cable, as well as being a most expensive happening to the contracting com pany. Rare good Judgment In the handling of both the ship and the cable at these critical times averted pn accident. The cable finally reached Moloakal Channel on Christmas day, and had to be buoyed there for a week before the sea became calm enough to splice it to the Hawaiian shore end. That feat was finally accomplished ■ n New Year's night, amid great popu lar rejoicing. Clarence Mackay, president of the Cable Company, says cable-laying will be continued without Interruption and hopes to have the line completed to Manila by the Fourth of J July.
