' Nov. 10, 1904— Dear Sister Venice: I guess there is not much new developing here. I think I wrote of being wanted in Iquique, Chili, and in Montevidio. I think I wroteyou two or three months ago about attending a swell wedding. Today I attended a large funeral from the same house, the uncle of the bride having died. A great black curtain hung over the street door. I did not enter the house but waited out- side. The daughters were in a house across the street watching from behind curtains. Women do not go to funerals here. The push cart was brought and covered with flower crosses and great wreathe, dozens. The coffin was brought down stairs and put in the cart. There were three priests and their boy servants or aids who bore a silver cross and swung incense. They went in front of the cart which was pull- ed and pushed by Indians dressed in long Wick gowns and a gro- tesque hood. Behind the cart came the three mourners being . one of the sons, his Kamm, and a (•onsin's husband. Behind these followed in a crowd from one side the street to the other about 60 or 70 of the gentlemen of Tartan and back of these at crowd peons.

On reaching the cemetery many of the priests sang and went through several performan- ces, but I did not stay to see it all because I had to give a pri- vate lesson.

At the close of the fiscal year on the 30th of November, there were 568 patients in the State Insane Asylum at Warm Springs, as shown in the annual report of the contractors, Mitchell & Mussig- brod, received by J. J. Ryan, cl'k of the State Board of Commis- sioners for insane. The report shows that the num- ber of patients at the beginning of the last fiscal year was 548. During the year 170 patients were admitted, of whom 131 were men, making the number treated during the year 718. There were discharged as recovered during the year 44 Men and 7 women; discharged As improved, 17 men and 18 women; escaped, 18 men; died, 34 men and 13 women. The total number of departures for the year was 150. Of t he 568 remaining in the asy- Itou at the beginning of the new fiscal year, 448 are men and 120 are women, the increase for the previous year having been 18 men and 2 women. The percentage of recoveries on the number treated last year was 11.8; percentage of recoveries on number ad tnitted,50; percentage of deaths during the fiscal year, 6.5. In the table showing the clamed - ['cation of dieeasee, chronic illu- sionary insanity is meen to afflict 113 of the patients, while melan- cholia is responsible for the pres- ence of 89 of the inmates in the institution.

It had oats 8 feet tall and timothy heads 8 inches long. It took 340 prizes and 89 gold medals And its sep- arate fruit exhibit included al- most all the products of America except the truly tropical. Oregon had Northgage Lifter wheat 7 feet tall. Think of a wheat field in which an army of 6 foot men would stand concealed. The snow white onions 0 inches across. And Idaho and Utah and New Mexico, and all the west set forth a dazzling display of irri- gated apples and plums, peaches and grapes of color, size and beauty, %which it would take a book to describe. But ahead of all the west in ex- tent and variety of her exhibit, stood California—California, that vast stlip of golden land reach- ing from Oregon to Mexico and including the vegetable wealth of the tropics. Fruit is the main stay of the golden state and 250,000 is rep- resented in her showing at St. Louis.

One of the Most Stubborn Defenses in History. .0•MM•1111111a The Japanese People are Wild With Joy, WASHINGTON, Jan. 2.—Official news of the fall of Port Arthur reached here this morning at an early hour and has been the absor- bing topic of discussion ever since. President Roosevelt was notified before he had eaten breakfast. Word was sent by United States Minister Griseom at Tokio and confirmed former rU1110114, making the announcement official. Although an official holiday, the announcement caused an unu- sual activity amorqr, officials, most of whom met in various execu- tive offices and discussed the surrender. Naval and military attaches were especially interested, as the fall of the port is considered the most important piece of interna- tional war ttews sin he since t close ot the Spanish war. While the opinions differed as to the ultimate result of t he surrender, it was generally conceded that Stoessel's capitulation Meant renewed ne- gotiations for pare. United States Minister Griscom at Tokio cabled the state de- partment this morning that the titioister of foreign affars had offi- cially informed him that General :qoessel hail surrendered at 9 o'clock Sunday evening. JAI'S HEAR THE NEWS. TOKIO, Jan. 2.—Dispatehes state Admirals Togo an Kamimura hurried to the war office on receipts of information that Gen.Stoe , s- sel had surrendered. It is said t bat Anal terms were drafted as pro- posed by Togo. It is also stated that the Russianm demanded that the remainder of thegarrison be escorted in safety to the mainland, pending negotiations for t heir libera ion, and that all these persons now in the old and new town and unable to leave should be protec- I tea. These lerms were finally agreed to. Keeretitry Kaike said: -We interpret thesituatiou to mean that Generals Stoessel and Nogi are dismissing terms; what these terms are we do not know offiviallv. It • be regarded that SI Oet 4 Sel . . HID is mission for the whole garrison to return to Russia altlt the army on parole. \The Tokio authorities, undoubtedly, allow Stoessel the most gracious terms possible in recognition of his magriificeut defense. As se est itnate the garrison at 20,000, this number would be too large to permit their return to Russia. \Our besieging army number at present T$,000. It is not likely that they will be sent north to join ()yawn, as they need rest. If. possible the larger part sill be returned to Japan to recuperate. \We are naturally delighted that Nogi's work is at last accom- plished. We consider this brings the end of the struggle apprecia- bly nearer. 'Russia should realize that she is now unable to again secure her lost prestige. Probably after one or two more fights bet weer) Kuropatkin and Opium the St. Petersburg authorities sill also express a desire to diseuss terms of peace. We are unable to make first advances. They must come from Russia. BALTIC FLEET AT SEA. `:The fall of Port Arthur must liii teul al Iv effect the plans of t Baltic fleet. Dojestivensky now has posher; to go, for it is impos- table for Iii mu o reach Vladi vostoek, which is ire bound until March. It seems to us the better procedure for Russia would be the recall of the Baltic fleet. There would be no loss of prestige am] Russia should save t he fleet from dest met ion.

Why can't enough potatoes to supply the home market be rais- ed on the 6,000,000 farms of the ['muted Mates? The home crop amounts to from 250,000,000 to 275.000,000 bushels a year, say three bushels for every man, wo- man, .child. nursing -infant. and Indian, tax& or untaxed, in the country. Yet in the last 10 years it. has 11PPII necessary to import auto the ['rifted States till VII , age of 1.500.000 bushels of po- tatoes a year. One week last summer 60,000 sacks of foreign Potatoes—old-crop potatoes. not Berinudas—catne to New York These potatoes sere worth a lit- tle more than a dollar a bushel. Two hundred mind fifty bushels to I he tiere is maid to be a fair aver- age yield on an acre of good soil. Aren't some or many American farmers throwing n way good money by neglecting potatoes. The address is as follows: \I know how vain it is to guild a grief with words, and yet I aishi to take from every grave its fear. Here in this world, where life and death are equal kings, all should be brave enough to meet what all have met. The future has been filled with fear, stained and pol- luted by the heartless past. From the wondrous tree of life the buds amid blossoms fall with ripened fruit, and in the common bed of earth patriarchs and babes sleep side by side. Why should wefear that which will come to all that is? We eaunot tell. We do not know which is the greatest bless- ing, life or death. We elintiOt say thai death is not good. We do not know whether the grave is the end of this life or the door of another, or whether the night here is not somewhereelse a dawn. Neither can we tell, which is the more fortunate, the child dying in its mot her'a arms before its lips have learned to form a wor . o . .• he who journeys all the letigi of :ife's um aiven rood, vsiii;;I•Ity king the lost slow steps it it ',start and crutch. Every cradle asIs us •Wheuce?' and every eotfin 'Whither?' The poor barbarian s - feping above his dead can an- swer this question as intelligently as the robed priest of the most asithentic creed. The tearful ig- norance of the one is just as con- soling as the learned and unmea- ning words of the Other. No inaum standing where the horizon of life has totalled it grave has any right to prophesy a future filled with pain and tears. It may be that death gives all there is of worth in life. If those who press and strain against our hearts ould never die. perhaps tl•et love r....ith;r- from I - he earth. may be a common - faith treads from out t he paths between our hearts the weeds of selfishness, and I should rattier live and love where death is king than have eternal life where love is not. An- other life is naught unless we know and love again the ones who love us here. The largest and the nobler faith in all that is, and is to be, tells DS that death, even at its worst, is only perfect reef We know that through t he common wants of life, the needs and duties of each hour, their grief will lessen day by day until at last these gnu wpm will be to them a place of rest and peaee; almost of joy. There is for them this consolat ion—t he dead do not suffer. If they live again their lives will surely be as good as ours. We have no fear; we are all children of the same mother, and the same fate awaits US all.'' For uses sixty Tears.

In 1861, in Calorado territory, there were many stampedes from Denver to the mining belts in the adjacent mountains. On most of these occasions we used saddle horses and pack animals. On one occasion about the above date, X. Biedier and Bill Roe left Denver with a small pack train of mules and bums loaded with provisions and miners' sup- plies for the Southern Colorado mines near Georgia gulch. Soon after leaving Denver a mau by the nameof Ding Darling came to them and said he was broke and had no blankets and would like to travel with them and help them with the train and about camp for his board. This was satisfactory to X. and Bill, aad he joined them. The first camp made was a cosy one on the bank of the South -Platte river. The midday sun %vas warni, and after unloading their animals and turning them lItlf I') graze, they all took a rest in the shade of the evergreen pines. After a while something was said about dinner. water,fire. lireati [finking, etc 11111offered to build a fire and bring the water if X. would inaltt the bread. X. objeei ed, telling Bill that he was the hi st breadtnaker. They par- leyed some moments over tue matter. when their attention was ,•alled to their traveling compan- ion. Ding Darling, lie wore a greasy slouch hat, a flannel shirt with the sleeves worn off to the elbows: moccasins on his feet and a pair of greasy buckskin pants ripped open from stem to gizzard. He was terribly bothered with \graybacks.\ and while laying there in the shade, kept one hand 1,Ceik alarm. Ding listened to X. and Bill very anxiously concerning the matter of dinner, as he was very hutiKry. And mien he saw that X and Bill could not agree as to who should make the bread, he pulled his hands out of the rent of hie pants, and rising to his leet said: - Show me the pan and flour and I'll mix 'er.\ X. jemped to his feet at once, and said: \No Ding. you are too tired to make bread; you lay still and rest.\ Bill built the fire and X. made I he bread for dinner.

This is the inomt approved method of operating trains for both speed nod safety that has been devised. lii President Roosevelt's late message to congress he urged upon that body the enactment of a law that would compel the rail- roads to put in such systems. The president says it is the only way to stop the appalling loss of life in the United States front rail- road accidents. The systems be- ing put in have blocks from two to five miles long. There will be a telegraph operator at the end of every block, who will issue or- ders to passing trains by means of semaphores.

If a train comes to a block whete the signal is out, showing that another train has the right of way on the block the train com- ing up will be put on the sidetrack until its turn comes. There will be a sidetrack at each block and one in the middle of some of the larger blocks. Where a sidetrack is in the middle of the block, it will be equipped with a telephone.
