run to the ambassador's residence,
where Mrs. Roosevelt and Ethel
were awaiting them. The passage
of the car through the Btreets was
the signal for cheering and a large
crowd, which had gathered at the
embassy gave the party an enthus
iastic welcome.
Roosevelt spent the morning
quietly at the embassy, lunching
with Mr. Bacon and a number of in-:
vited guests. This afternoon he
called upon President Fallieres and
Foreign Minister Pinchon, who later
returned the visits at the embassy.

Leavenworth, Kans., April 21. Five train robbers, serv
ing life sentences, escaped from the federal prison near here
early today. Two were recaptured in a short time, and at 11
o'clock the other three were surrounded in the brush a short
distance from the prison and it is believed they will be taken.
The break for liberty was well planned. Two of the convicts
were at work in the carpenter -shop and the others in the tailor
shop. A Union Pacific switch engine had backed into the pris
on yard, and at the sound of the whistle the men dashed into the
yard, and ran toward the engine. Leveling dummy guns at the
engineer, the men climbed into the cab and compelled him to
reverse the engine, running it through the gate into the open
country.
The alarm was sounded and guards thrown out, while the
farmers of the surrounding country were notified by the steam
siren at the penitentiary. When the engine reached a point six
miles from the prison the five men leaped to the ground and
made for the woods. Two separated from the others and were
soon captured, and the guards soon surrounded the other three'
in the woods, many believing their only weapons were wooden
guns painted black.
A short time later two more convicts were captured.
The roll call at the prison developed another missing, and
there is no trace of him. All but one of the original five have
"been captured.

THIS AFTERNOON
Famous Humorist's Long Lit
erary Career ..Ended
by Death
Redding, April 21. Samuel 1.
ATTACKED BY
REPUBLICANS
Insurgents Plan to Take Ap
pointing Power Out of
His Hands
Washington, April 21,--A move-
Clemens (Mnrk Twain) died hero late , nient wan launched today by the in
today. During tlio day up to n short
time before his death his condition
appeared better than for sevornl days
past. Ho rested well last night and
appeared to bo Btronger.
Samuel Langhorne demons, the
! American humorist, was born at Klor
1 ida, Missouri, November 30, 183G.
He was best known by his pseudonym
J of Mnrk Twain, which had linen the
1 pet name of Captain Isaiah Sellcr.s
who, previous to 186H, furnished riv
er news to the New Orleans Picayune,
and which was derived from the call
of the leadsman on the Mississippi
river boats when he Rounds two fath
oms. He was educated in the village
school in Hannibal, Missouri, and was
apprenticed to a printer. Aftor learn
ing the trade, ho Journeyed from
town to town until he reached New
York. Afterward he went to New Or
leans and became a pilot on the Mlls
slssippi river steamboats, in 1K61
he went to Nevada as private secre
tary to his brother, -who hud been
made secretary of the territory. He
engaged In mining In Nevada, and In
162 became the city editor of the
Virginia City Enterprise. In 18GG ho
went to Snn Francisco, where ho wns
engaged as a reporter on the Morn
ing Call. After experimenting in
gold mining, he resumed his work for
the California Press, and visited the
Hawaiian Islands us a newspaper cor
respondent In 1HS6.
In 1872 he lectured In Knglnnn
surgents of the house to take away
from tho speaker the power to ap
point house commlltoes. Fowler, of
New Jersey, one of the Insurgents,
asked the Immediate consideration of
a resolution providing for the selec
tion of two committees, one com
posed of Hepubllcnns nnd tho other
of Democratic mourners, mo amy oi
which will be to designate all mom
hern of bouse cninmlttoos.
Immediately tho house became the
scene of confusion, tho member ex
pecting a repltitlon of tho stirring
scenes enacted several weeks ago,
when tho Insurgents, combining with
the HemocrntB, succeeded In remov
ing the speaker from tho powerful
f-mnmittee on rules.
Majority Loader Payne rose to the
occasion and mado a point of order
against the Fowler resolution as not
"privileged." ISefora the speaker
could rule, Hardwlck, of Cloogla,
made tho point of no quorum, and
the doors were closed and there was
n enll of Hie house. Moniuore wno
had been absent at tniiunlttne meet
ings when the resolution waa pre
sented camo flocking Into the cham
ber, and catching tho fnvor of excite
ment, added to tno contusion.
Tho speaker finally obtained a
semblance of order, and announced
27S members present. Fowler was
mmln mrnvnlied to sneak on his res
olution, and ho announced that lie
did not wish to consider action on
the resolution until May 1, but do-
Klred to have It referred to the com
mit tco on rules, nnd to have It conm

Stipulation in Agreement of
Sale Requires Building of
College Hill Loop
One of the largest deals In inhnr.
ban real estato roported In Eugene
for a' long time and one that moana
tho rapid development of the terri
tory In which the tract la located, is
tho sale of the old Whitney farm of
over 200 acres southwest of the city
by J. O. Storey, president of th
Portland, Eugone & Kastorn Rail
way Co., to J. P. Howo and nun.
elates of Seattle. This deal has been
ponding for several week and has
noen consummated only In tho last
two or three days. Tho deed will bo
filed for record olthor today or to
morrow. Mr. Storoy purchased' this proper
ty about two years ago and placed a
lot of blooded cattle there. At tho
time of the purchase he realized
that tho farm would soon bo valu
able for residence purposes and
know that he would realise a hand
some profit on his Investment by
holding the property for a few
yours. He had faith In the future of
Kugcno when ho mado tho purchase,
nnd he has reallxed a good figure on
his Investment, although the consid
eration Is not known and Is not giv
en in the deed, as Mr. Storey took
In exchange some Seattle property
owned by Mr. Howo.-
Street Hallway Assured.
The purchase of this property by
these Seattle men more than any
thing elso Insures the building ot
tho College Hill loop ot the street
railway line,, for It was the stlpuatetf
agreement before the deal was
closed that the P. IS. & K. should ex
tend tho lino through the tract this
year.
Mr. Howe Is a retired theatrical
man, being formerly engaged in that
business with John Cort, who is
known nil over tho country as one
of the foremost theatrical managers
of the land, Mr, Howe and his asso
ciates hnve plenty of capital at their
command and may purchase other
property In and near Eugene If their
present venture Is successful, and
there Is no renson at nil why It
should not bo.
Place It on Market,
It is understood thut the new pur
chasers ot the tract will plant that
portion of It which lies on the sldo
h 111 to fruit nnd divide It Into small
tracts.- while the valley land will be
divided into residence lots and the
whole tract placed on tho market
at once. It la said that 15 or mors
expert salesmen will bo brought
here from Seattle and a whirlwind
soiling campaign will be made. That
many nntomoblles will be brought
from the Sound city by the purchas
ers and they will be lined exclusively
for the purpose of conveying pros
pective purchasers to and from the
tract, It Is stilted on reliable author
ity. This tract lies partly In a smalt
valley over beyond College Hill and
partly on a sloping hill. The upper
portion ot It overlooks tho entire
city nnd a magnificent vlow la oh
tnlned from there. The land on ths
whole tract Is said to bo very rick
and Is well adapted to fruit growing
and garden raining. It will maks
Ideal suburban homes, with street
car facilities and It Is probable that
