John Wilson Durant of New Toiic, who has been living for the last two years in Paris with his mother at the Hotel Lafonde Tremoille, wa,s killed Monday at Ostend in a duel with a Russian count. According to the best information obtainable Durant had written letters to the wife of the Rus­ sian count. The latter's nephew came to Paris to settle the matter, where he met Durant in a restaurant. A vic­ ious fight resulted, in which Durant lost a front tooth. He struck the Rus­ sian with a heavy glass water bottle and the latter died, but the doctors', certificate gave congestion of the brain as the cause of death. This occurred during January. Later, the count took the matter up, sending his seconds to Durant. The latter went to Ostend with his mother, who afterwards de­ parted for an<f still is at Glasgow. A duel was arranged and was fought Tuesday with pistols. Durant was killed and the count was wounded seri- ously. 7 Wiiish Plot to Kidnap Jacob Pollock, proprietor of a whole­ sale dry goods house and of the local theater at Mobile, Ala., received a let­ ter, written in a good hand and evi­ dently by an intelligent person, giving particulars of a plot to abduct his 12- year-old daughter, Clara, and hold her for ransom. The writer alleged he was one of four men who had arrived in the city from Omaha for the purpose of conducting the kidnaping, but that his companions had mistreated him and for that reason he revealed the scheme. The Mobile police refuse to make public the letter, but all stran­ gers are being rounded up, and, in ad­ dition to the force of men engaged from the regular department, the serv­ ices of a private agency have been ob­ tained to hunt the gang down.

Senator Morgan of Alabama roused the senate from a condition of somno­ lence Wednesday with a fiery speech upon the possibility of war with Great Britain. He charged that nation and its government with a desire to pre­ vent the building of the Nicaraguan canal. He said that she is preserving golden silence, golden becauses Great Britain, through Liverpool, which was the commercial center of the world, was being enriched, and the United States, because of the lack 6f the Ni­ caraguan canal, was contributing to the enrichment of Great Britain. He warned President McKinley that if a vote were taken on his resolution to abrogate the Clayton-Bulwer treaty he would find that he has two-thirds majority of the senate to adopt any compromise he may make with the English government. "It is the pur­ pose of Great Britain still to look for delay and she will not get it," Mr. Morgan declared. "If it be her deter­ mination to pick a quarrel with ns she will find the United States can muster at least one-half of the men who voted for the president in the last election--lighting men. And she will And that when that war terminates the steel band which binds the throne In London with Australia and India and passes through Canada will have been rent In twain, and with its sev­ erance down will go the empire. She will find that her possessions have lapsed. She will find that she has overtaxed our patience. She has started with a new king upon a new career that will break up the empire and reduce the king to the sover­ eignty of his island. Does Great Brit­ ain suppose she can escape from the perils of the existing situation and the prospective situation everywhere and that she can find favorable oppor­ tunity to display her military power against the United Stat4s?"

The conference held Wednesday be­ tween United States Ambassador Choate and Lord Lansdowne, the for­ eign secretary, had nothing to do with the Nicaraguan canal affair.

The foreign representatives Interested in reciprocity treaties pending before the United States senate are in com­ munication with their governments as to the course to be adopted since the senate has failed to act upon the in­ struments. As to most of them the: view prevails that they expired with the end of the recent regular session.

James J. Hill, F. H. Clergue and other promoters engaged in securing charters will superintend operations in Ottawa* These measures' are: Crow s Nest Pass Coal and Railway project, the Canadian Lloyd* bill and the schema intended to complete m new transcontinental route practically un­ der government control and partially under government ownership. A hard problem which must be faced is the acquisition by American capitalists of the control of Canada's greatest in­ dustries. It Is computed that the pass­ ing of the Sydney (Cape Breton) steel and coal Interests into the hands of the American steel syndicate means, in effect, that the Canadian treasury will be called upon to pay direct trib­ ute to the syndicate to the extent of $15,000,000 a year under the bounty law. The bounty expires in 1908, and if the trust can put out 10,000,000 tons of manufactured product in that per­ iod it will cost the Canadian taxpayers $10,000,000 In cash. The situation is thus summed up: With the Morgan- Kockefeller trust controlling the iron and coal of the Atlantic seaboard, with Hill and Rockefeller controlling the coal of the Crow's Nest Pass, with the same combination directing the Midland, the "Soo" and the Nanaimo (B. C.) enterprises, the annexation of Canada's industries wiH be practically complete, and Canada henceforth a mere annex of the American syndi- cate. , , - -- ,11 --.1--.• ̂ O tlWteh Deputy An exciting discussion occurred in the French chamber of deputies Mon­ day following'the reception of the re­ port of the special committee dealing with the case of M. Paul Deroulede and Marcel-Habert,which recommend­ ed that the names of those deputies be stricken from the rolls of the chamber. M. Firman Faure, anti- Semite and revisionist, followed with a violent speech condemning the deci­ sion of the high court, which he de­ scribed as "crime" and "felony." M. Deschanel ruled that M. Faure had in­ sulted the government, and he sub­ mitted the question of censure to the chamber, which promptly voted the temporary exclusion of the deputy from the precincts of the house. M. Faure refused to budge, whereupon M. Deschanel donned his hat and sus­ pended the session. The ushers beg­ ged M. Faure to retire, but he still re­ fused. Then an officer, with a squad of infantry stationed outside the chamber, marched in and placed his hand on M. Faure's shoulder. The deputy said: "I yield to force," and withdrew, shouting, "Long live an honest republic," "Down with the Jes­ uits" and "Down with Waldeck-Rous- seau." . Farmers' Fall Among Thieves. Two farmers went to Chicago Thurs­ day from Illinois towns and In the evening called on the police to explain that they were going home right away, as they had lost their money without so much as having seen the explosion. One of them, not having the means to buy a railroad ticket, started to walk home. The most hapless of the two was Herman Young, 18 years old, who lives near Joliet. Some Chicago man promised to get him employment, so he put $15 In his pocket and came to town. His kind friend met him, took him down on State street, and robbed him. Young started to walk back to Joliet, declaring he would spend the rest of his life on a farm. The other unfortunate was James Roger, 70 years old, who lives near Sterling. The other day he was seised with a sudden desire to visit friends, so he secured $10,000 in drafts and made the start. Near Chicago he was robbed of all his loose money by a gang of tramps, but he succeeded In saving the drafts. He will take them home and Ireland will have to get along without him for awhile. Carry oa Brutal Warfarê According to V. H. Putros, a rail­ road man who has arrived at San Francisco from South America, the war now in progress in Colombia is characterized by brutality on both sides. In the far interior, says Mr. Putros, the federals before being driven out slaughtered every person that fell into their hands, excepting only a few women. At Chinipa a body of adherents of Marosquin, while re­ treating came upon an inn near the town and took possession of it The person in command of this party was Meliton Zubia, who at present has charge of the artillery at Bogota. Theophlle Ortiz, the son of the owner of the inn, was found within and made prisoner. Having ascertained that the young man's father was a rebel Zubia ordered him to be tor­ tured. He was finally, according to Mr. Putros, impaled by his chin on a hook driven into the door and his hands nailed to the sides of the en­ trance. In this way, after a series of struggles, he soon died. Dated Begf&ning of Year from Opening of Spring m thiscs in *mie • * aracsa.F " '#!:• •?Si vie Other Tfcisgs is Whick the Bave Gives Us foists. The ancients began their yew wltb the advent of spring. How much appropriate thus to begin the New Year with the new life of nature In awakening spring. At this season all processes throughout the natural world start afresh. *. The ancients also showed their sagacity and appreciation of the great changes and active processes of spring- time. by realizing that this is also ths urns for renewed life and energy In the humui system. They well knew that the blood should be cleansed from Impurities and the nerves re-invigo­ rated at this season. Hence the estab­ lishment Qf the custom of taking a good spring medicine. This most sensible and healthy cus­ tom Is followed by almost everybody at the present day, few people of in­ telligence venturing to go through trying time of change from wintfer to summer without taking a spring med­ icine. The unanimity on this subject is a settled fa«t; the only question i 4ll 'vf|§s MR. STOUGHTON L. FARNHABlj^V fore has been in regard to what is M# best thing to take.
