DAVIS TO TALK
FOR THE BOERS
Assistant Secretary of the Inte
rior Resigns.
HE ESPOUSES KRUfiER’S CAUSE
Has Just Returned From Tour of
.South Africa and Is Loaded
With Information.
A Washington snecial nays: Web
ster Davis, assistant secretary o* the
interior, tendered his resignation to
President McKinley Monday. He
will go on the lecture platform in the
interest of the Boers.
In an authorized statement given
ont, Mr. Davis says that as a result of
his visit to the Transvaal he feels im
pollod to tender his resignation as as
sistant secretary of the interior. He
will at an early date deliver a lecture
in the interest of the South African
republic.
Mr. Davis feels that this is the best
way to arouse the enthusiasm of the
American people in behalf of thoso ro
poblios.
Mr. Davis decided to tako this course
as the result of his visit to South Afri
ca. He has decided to deliver a pub
lic address touching the entire scope
of tho present war and believes that
he can best do so while free from any
restraint which his present position
wonld impose upon him.
When taking his departure home
from Pretoria 2,000 gathered to tako
leavo of him at the station. They ap
pealed to him in tears to state their
cause to the American people, and Mr.
Davis says his conscience would haunt
him if he proved recreant to that piti
ful appeal.
He believes the American people
are not truly informed on the situation.
He will, therefore, avail himself of an
early opportunity to relate his experi
ence and observations at a publio
meeting that shall be free to all. Mr.
Davis has decided on this course after
mature deliberation aud free consulta
tion with bis friends.
Davis, who is a resident of Kansas
City, has a reputation in the west of
being a great orator. He was espe
cially prominent in tho campaign
which led up to the nomination of
McKinley at Bt. Louis.
Thoso who do not approve of his
course declare that as soon as he got
to Washington Davis became afflicted
with the swelled head and that his
change of heart is entirely due to hia
chagrin in being called down when
Secretary Hitchcock took oontrol of
tho interior department. They ssy
that Davis at that time was fondly
MMH|j|ijjgUimnclf the most important

"' V : 1
(kid Home pretext for
self-advertisement.
A good deni of this may bo true, but
It doaa not minimize tbe political im
portance of this action of tho assistant
secretary of tbo interior.
There is no doubt that tlie over
whelming sentiment of tbe Amerioau
people is with the Hoars and that sen
timent is not likely to die out when
men like Davis who have been on tho
noouo become active in the agitation
in their behalf.

His re-election was considered assured,

KRUGER’S REPRESENTATIVE
Him a l.wngthy Interview With McKinley
and liny.
General James R. O’Boirue, who
was appointed by President Kruger
commissioner extraordinary of the
Transvaal republic, had long, inter
views Friday with the president and
secretary of state concerning affairs
connected with the Boer government.
While General O’Beirne discussed
Transvaal matters with Secretary Hay,
the latter is authority for the state
ment that it wag in an informal and
Buofficiftl capacity entirely.
NEW PLAN PROPOSED
! Whereby State Militia May Be
Used By Government in Lieu
of Large Standing Army.
Representative Hay, of Virginia, a
' prominent member of the military
| com mi t(ej, has prepared with great
care a bill to create of the militia of
the several states a reserve volunteer
army for nse in time of war, to supple
ment the regular army. The bill con
templates a general broadening of tho
national guard, its equipment with the
service rifle and its complete organiza
tion in time of war into regiments,
brigades, divisions and corps, with the
three battalion formation, as in the
regular army, and is designed to obvi
ate the necessity of a large stand
ing army npon tbs expiration of
the present law July 1, 1901, increas
ing the standing army to 65,000 and
authorizing the present volunteer army
of 85,000.
The measure receives additional im
portance from the fact that Mr. Hay is
chairman of the Democratic caucus.
The bill makes all citizens between
the ages of eighteen and forty-five
liable to military service in the volun
teer army.
It appropriates $4,000,000 annually
for the maintenance and equipment of
the national guard of the several
states, this forming the nucleus of the
volunteer army, and requires the sec
retary of war to keep in each state a
supply of ordnance stores sufficient for
ninety days’ use of the national guard
of the state in the event of war.
It provides a system of mobilization
for the guard by dividing the states
iut i military divisions and pro
vides for a board of ofßeers in each
state who shall hold examinations for
the position of second nontenant in
the national guard, such officers to be
promoted for merit and efficiency.
“The time has como,” said Mr. Hay,
in explanation of his bill, “when it is
neoessary to consider carefully tho
question of the future military estab
lishment of tlie United States. In the
minds of many the maintenance of a
laige standing army seems a necessity,
and at first blush it wonld seem that
there is no other way out of the diffi
culty which now confronts us.
“A careful consideration of the
quostion has led to the belief that the
situation can ho met without a resort
to that worst enemy of a republic—a
large and permanent military estab
lishment. The secretary of war has
well said that ‘the regular establish
ment in tho United States will never
be by itself the whole machine with
which any war will be fought.' This
being admitted, it will certainly not
be contended that in time of peace
the regular establishment will be ‘tho
whole machine. ’
“On tho first day of July, 1901, tho
present army will be roducod to its
peace basis of £6,610 men. Taking
into acoount the aituation which may
confront us at that time, will it be
necessary to increase tho regular es
tablishment beyond that number? Tho
reasons given for such iuerease are
various, but the most important aro
that there must boa sufllcieut number
of men to mau effectively our sen const
defenses; a sufficient number to pro
servo peace and order in the Philippine
islands, and a suffkiont number to do
police duty against tho ludinus and to
take oaro of the various posts in the
United Htates.
“The number of men sufficient for
these purposes is variously estimated
at from 65,000 to 100,000 men, but it
is not now necessary to determine thin
question, because a year may material
ly change present conditions.
“But it will be admitted by all that
the strongest argument which eau lie
used against a large standing army is
the creation of a well organized and
thoroughly equipped natioual guard.
“This oouutry has fought all of her
wara with citizen soldiers and no good
reason eau bo given for departing
from that policy."

A DEADLY EXPLOSION
THREE MEN WERE HORRIBLY WANGLED
Steam Boiler Hurled Through the
Air Five Hundred Feet.
Accident Wan a Mont Remarkable One.
Roller Weighed Five'Rons and Was
Rut Little Ranuufed.
An Atlanta dispatch says: Three
men were killed by a bonier explosion
at the brick yard of the G. O. Wil
liams Lumber company, on the Chat
tahoochee River trolley car line, about
four miles from the city, shortly after
11 o’clock Monday morning.
The explosion was a terrific one, the
boiler flying through the roof of the
engine room and striking the earth
nearly 500 feet away from the brick
yard. The boiler weighed nearly five
tons, and was of sixty-horse power.
The accident was undoubtedly a
most, remarkable one, as not a break
can )>e found in the boiler. When the
coroner was investigating the affair he
heard hints of the explosion having
been probably caused by dynamite,
but this was merely a vague suspicion.
The three meu killed were:
John M. Smith, white, aged about
fifty-six years.
Walter Evans, white, twenty-one
years old.
James Perkins, white, twenty-five
years old.
Five negroes were injured, but it
is thought none will die.
Perkins was killed instantly. Smith
lived about five minutes, and Evans
died about four hours aftei the ucui
dent.
The maunor in which the three men
were crashed and mutilated, and the
great distance the heavy iron boiler
was hurled through the air, showed
the terrific force of the explosion. A
remarkable feature of the accident was
the fact that although such force was
evident, yet the boiler itself was but
little injured. It seems to have risen
straight up from its foundations, pass
ed through the roof of the hnildiug
and then shot toward the car line,
clearing a negro cabin and the trolley
wires and larding upon its end. When
it struck tho ground it bounded up
and planted itself in the earth several
feet away.
The cause of the accident is not
definitely known, but H is believed
the cold water must have been turned
into the hot boiler when it was empty
or nearly so.
Unfortnnately the accident happen
ed at a time when tho engine had been
shut down for a few moments for re
pairs, and nearly all the employers
were standing near it.
Mr. Smith was found lying against
a pile of lumber fully 40 feet away
from where the boiler bad been, lie
was standing withiug four feet of the
boilor when it exploded. He was
badly mangled.
The body of James Perkius was
fouud wrapped around a post about
ton feet away from the ougine. It had
been whirled with great force against
the big post and death was instantane
ous. No limbs wsro torn from the
body, though one of bis arms and both
legs hung only by small shreds of
flesh.
Walter Evans was found ahont thirty
feet away, wboro be hud been thrown
with great force. He was resting
against a pile of brick, and it is
thought that ho struck the brick brad
first, as bis head was badly masbed.
Blood was llowing from many wounds,
too, on bis body. Ho was sent to his
home and died shortly afterward.
The negroes who were injured were
found at different plareß about the
yard. Some were badly scalded, while
others were injured by Hying debris.
All of the six men were painfully and
severely hurt.

Huts of Ihe Navshs lodians.
The Navaho Indians In Arizona live
tn rude, earth-covered huts scattered
widely throughout the reservation and
never grouped into villages. Rude as
the huts appear, however, they are al

and the building is followed by an
elaborate religious ceremony by which
ihe house Is dedicated. Each timber
in It must be laid In a certain way and
in a proscribed order, and finally a
doorway is added not unlike the dor
mer windows of our houses. This Is

CHINESE POSTAL FACILITIES.
Letters Carried by Private Companies-
Slight Use of Postaje Stamps.
The recent establishment In Moti
street of a postal sub-station with
Chinese interpreters for the particular
accommodation of the inhabitants of
Chinatown may Induce gome
about the way the Chinamen—who dc
so many things backwards, accordini
to Occidental Ideas—handle their malli
in their own country. Sure enough
they stick stamps on the backs of let
ters, though not invariably; and tbt
stamps look like the labels on fire
cracker packages, showing dragons,
pagodas, and other emblems less eas
ily Identified, but meaning "sincerity,”
“longevity,” and so on.
But private postal companies, analo
gous to our express and telegraph cor
porations, do most of the business In
China. They use no stamp, and It Is
necessary to prepay only about a third
of the postage, as the rest Is collected
from the recipient. The less one pre
pays In excess of the minimum the
surer and swifter the delivery. When
a New Y'orker mails a letter to Interior
China the stamp carries It only to
some Chinese port, where It Is trans
ferred to a private post at the recipient's
expense. Similarly a missionary sta
tioned away from the coast has to pay
two postal charges to communicate
with friends here. Shanghai lias a mu
nicipal post for Its own merchants nnd
citizens, with branches In fifteen treaty
ports. It used to charge each customer
SSO a year for all his business, light
or heavy, but stamps arc used now.
Chinese stamps are reckoned In can
darlnes, approximately equivalent tc
cents. Their value used to be based
on the silver ounce, or tael, but Its vari
ability caused confusion, so now the
Mexican dollar is the basts. The first
imperial set was made in Jnpan, nnd
proved unsatisfactory; the current set
came from England !n 1898. Some
stamps, notably those of Tientsin, were
Issued without authority merely to sell
to collectors. There was no other de
mand for them, they never carried a
letter, and they have been officially re
pudiated. Elsewhere the regular de
mand Is so slight that no stock Is car
riod; the stamps are run off on a hand
press while the buyer Walts.—New
York Post.
