BROKEN TREATIES TO BE MENDED

Kncroaclied Upon — War Vessels Now
Doing Forward to Enforce tlie Decrees
of tlie French Government.
PARIS, Nov. 4.-—This morning M.
Delcasse, minister of foreign affairs,
telegraphed M. Baptist, counseler agent
for tho French embassy in Constanti
nople, directing him to present today
to Tewfik Pasha, Ottoman minister of
foreign affairs, a note asking how the
Turkish government proposed to pay
the Lorando claims and demanding the
execution of the sultan’s trade dealing
with that matter. The note will also
request satisfaction regarding the
rights of France, which are defined in
♦ho various treaties and which in some
cases have not been respected and in
others have been encroached upon by
Turkey.
'i ne declarations of what has been
done bears out the statement mado
yesterday regarding the intentions of
the French government. Admiral Call
lard is expected to reach his destina
tion tomorrow. The foreign office has
received no news from him since his
division left the other division of the
Mediterranean Bquadron four days ago.
It is pointed out that the absence
of news is not surprising, as the in
structions to Admiral Caillard were to
steer due south and avoid passing in
sight of Bonifacio, Corsica or travers
ing the Strait of Messina in order to
prevent his movements being signaled.
The vessels of the division carried
only a normal supply of coal, but this
would be much more than enough to
enable them to steam 1,500 miles, the
estimated distance they must cover be
fore reaching their destination.
It is expected that Admiral Caillard
will be joined en route by the torpedo
cruiser Condora, which is stationed in
Cretan waters, and may be met by the
torpedo dispatch boat Vantour, which
is stationed at Constantinople. It is
also probable that the cruiser Admiral
Charner, which arrived at Port Said
October 31, from the far east, is being
held -iiere in order to join Admiral
Caillard if needed.

DAY FOR RENDERING THANKS
President lasaes HI* Annual Proclarna*’
tion, Fixing It on November 28.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 4.—President
Roosevelt Saturday issued his procla
mation fixing Thursday, November 28,
as a day of national thanksgiving. It
follows:
The season is nigh when, according
to the time-hallowed custom of our
people, the president appoints a day
as the especial occasion for praise and
thanksgiving to God.
This Thanksgiving finds the people
still bowed with sorrow for the death
of a great and good president. We
mourn President McKinley; we also
honored him, and .the manner of his
death should awaken in the breasts
of our people a keen anxiety for the
country, and at the same time a reso
lute purpose not to be driven by any
calamity from the path of strong, or
derly, popular liberty which, as a na
tion, we have thu3 far trod.
Yet in spite of the great disaster it
is, nevertheless, true that no people
on earth have such abundant cause
for thanksgiving as we have, the last
year in particular having been one of
peace and plenty. We havo prosperity
in things material and have been able
to work for our own uplifting in
things intellectual and spiritual. Let
us remember that, as much has been
given us, much will be expected from
us, and that true homage comes from
the heart as well as from the lips and
shows itself in deeds. We can best
prove our thankfulness to the Al
mighty by the way in which on this
earth and at this time each of us does
his duty to his fellow men.
Now, therefore, I, Theodore Roose
velt, president of the United States,
do hereby designate as a day of gen
eral thanksgiving Thursday, the 28th
of this present November, and do rec
ommend that throughout the land the
people cease from their wonted occu
pations and at their several homes and
places of worship reverently thank the
Giver of all Good for the countless
blessings of our nation.
In witness of which I have hereunto
set my hand and caused the seal of
the United States to be affixed.
Done at the city of Washington this
second day of November, in the year
of our Lord 1901, and of the independ
ence of the United States the 126th.
By the president,
THEODORE ROOSEVELT.
JOHN HAY, Secretary of State.

SMALLPOX AMONG THE INiMANS.
They Are Belas: Vaccinated to Prevent
Spread of the Dlneaee.
OMAHA, Nov. 4.—The red man of
the forest, represented by the Winne
bago, has been inoculated with the
white man’s idea of preventing small
pox and is now baring his arm to the
scalpel and vaccine point.
Deputy United States Marshal Allan
has returned from the Indian country
of Dakota and Thurston counties and
reports that smallpox is still spreading
among the Indians of the Winnebago
reservation. It is said the disease has
reached the town of Thurston and
that the public school has been closed.
A rigid quarantine has been establish
ed and the Indians who live in the vi
vinity have been prohibited from en
tering the corporate limits.
NEBRASKA AS APPLE GROWER.
An Invitation for Farmer, to Produce
Jonathan..
OMAHA, Nov. 4.—E. F. Stephens of
Crete has presented General Passen
ger Agent Francis of the Burlington
with a big, red apple, a Jonathan that
looks like a mammoth jewel, and says
that it is a sample of the product p(
45,000 trees, in which he has a half
Interest. His plan is to put out the
Nebraska grown trees among farmers
on a contract by which he is to re
ceive half of the product for a term
of years, the farmer to cultivate the
trees according to instructions. The
success with which he is meeting, he
says, proves beyond question that irri
gated ground in the Ixmp, Republican
and Platte valleys along the southern
line of the Burlington will be the fin
est apple growing country in the world
if the farmers are properly interested.
Knd of Flftltin? Lennon
LINCOLN, Nov. 4.—Last week

Kpld*mic Spreads to Thurston.
PENDER, Neb., Nov. 4.—Dr. Towne
of the state board of health was sent
for to examine a suspicious case of
sickness at Thurston, which proved
to be smallpox.
STATE BOUNDARY PUZZLE.
Steps to Be Taken to Make Present River
Channel che Cine.
OMAHA, Neb., Nov. 4.—The deci
sion of the United States supreme
court in the matter of the Iowa-Ne
braskn boundary at Cut-Off and East
Omaha—holding that the boundary
changed with gradual changes of the
river, but remained in the old bed
of the river at the time of the sudden
“cut off” which put the river prac
tically where it is now—has given rise
to a troublesome condition which
steps are to be taken to correct.
Illustrations of the difficulties work
ed by the supreme court decision are
found in this vicinity at Cut-Off and
Lake Manawa. At both of these
points the river bed changed gradu
ally through a long series of years,
until the river flowed in the shape of
a horse shoe, and then suddenly cut
through the neck between the ends of
the shoe. As a result a piece of ter
ritory containing several square miles
on the Nebraska side of the river at
Cut-Off is held to be Iowa territory.
On the other hand a large portion of
Lake Manawa and the territory to
the southward of it are held to be
long in Sarpy county, Nebraska.
It is now proposed that the actual
bed of the river at any time shall con
stitute the boundary between the two
states. It is stated this can be ef
fected only by an act of congress, but
it is realized tjvat the initial proceed
ings will have to be taken by the
communities most directly interested.
The change suggested would place
Blue lake and I^ake Manawa in Iowa,
and would give Cut-Off lake and Lake
Quinnebog to Nebraska.
THE FARMER’S SHOT KILLED.
A Man Supposed to Be a Thief is Put to
Death.
NORFOLK, Neb., Nov. 4.—George
Fetterly was shot and killed upon the
farm of Christ Duerr, a few miles
north of this city on the road to
Pierce. Tidings of the affair were
brought to town shortly after the
shooting. City Marshal Kane and Dr.
Holden accompanied Edmund George
back to the scene of the tragedy and
found Fetterly's body lying a short
distance from Duerr's house with a
bridle tightly gripped in one hand and
a shotgun in the other. One barrel of
the gun had been disoharged. The
skull of Fetterly was found to have
been badly crushed in by a charge of
heavy shot, and death was probably
instantaneous.
George’s version of the affair is
that he and Fetterly had been to
Pierce on business • and were return
ing home; that they stopped at
Duerr’s to get a drink of water, Fet
terly going in and George remaining
in the wagon. George heard three
shots and saw Fetterly fall, and after
satisfying himself that Fetterly was
dead came to this city to notify the
authorities.
Duerr states that he was awakened
in thfe night by a noise outside and
went out with his shotgun to inves
tigate. He saw a man leaving his
barn with a bridle in his hand and
ordered him to stop; the man turned
and fired a shot, whereupon Duerr
discharged both barrels of his gun
with the result stated.

LINCOLN, Neb., Nov. 4.—Adjutant

family wholly dependent on his work
for support, met with an accident
here that the doctor says may kill
him. He was helping thresh and
worked until after dark, when he
jumped from a load, striking on a
pitchfork that was standing with tines
turned in the ground, the handle of
the fork entering his body ten inches.
He is suffering great agony.
Requisition for Margaret Johnson.
LINCOLN, Neb., Nov. 4.—Governor
Savage honored a requisition from Il
linois for Margaret Johnson, alias El
vira Dodson, now under arrest in Om
aha. She was convicted of robbery in
Illinois and sentenced to the peni
tentiary. She was paroled from that
institution and a few days after being
released came to Nebraska.
Statistical Maps.
LINCOLN, Neb.. Nov. 4.—The first
consignment of the new statistical
maps, which were arranged by Dep
uty Labor Commissioner Watson and
Assistant Hodge, have been received
at the state house. Over 15.000 cop

be mounted on rollers. The demand
for these maps is larger than expect
ed, many requests coming from other
states. The map contains a vast
| amount of statistical information.
Her Nerve Saved Several Lives.
A year ago the husband of Mrs.
Mary Hirsch, a New York woman, met
with an injury that prevented him
from attending to his work and also
made him subject to epileptic fits.
Mrs. Hirsch is an expert needlewo
man, and has been able to keep the
family together, in spite of the fact
that her husband had taken to drink.
The other morning after a hard night's
drinking, he arose from the breakfast
table, drew a revolver from his pocket
and said: "I am going to kill you all.”
There was insanity in his look, but
Mrs. Hirsch remained perfectly cool.
“Where did you get that pistol?” she
asked, pleasantly, as the madman
came toward her. He did not answer,
but leveled the weapon at. her head.
The woman never flinched, hut said
in ever tones:- “Now, Henry, if you
oo that they will lock you up, and
then you won’t be able to get a drink
at all.” The maniac had been prepar
ed for resistance, for terrified cries,
for fight—for anything but this. It
confused him and he muttered, “That's
so,” as he put away the weapon and
left the house. Half an hour later he
was on his way to the insane depart
ment at Bellevue hospital. Mrs.
Hirsch was terribly shaken by the ex
perience, but soon recovered.
THE CHAMPION WING SH.OT.
Capt. Bogar.lun Han a Dangerous Kxperl
•nre bnt Comes Out Unhurt.
Ferris Wheel Park, Chicago, Nor.
4th.—Capt. A. H. Bogardus, the cham
pion wing shot of the world, has spent
the summer here. His shooting school
has been one of the features of the
Park during the season. He has giv
en many exhibitions and his skill with
the rifle is superb.
The Captain tells of a very cloee
call he onee had when liv'ng at Blk
hart, 111. He had been a sufferer from
Kidney disease for several years and
it rapidly developed into Bright’s Dis
ease. All his friends told him that
this was incurable and that he would
never get better.
To say that he was alarmed is to
put It very mildly. This plucky man
had faced many dangers and it made
him sick at heart to think that at
last he was to be conquered by such,
a cruel foe.
At last he heard of a medicine that
had cured many such cases—Dodd’s
Kidney Pills. He used them and was
completely restored to good health.
He says: “I attribute my present
good health to Dodd’s Kidney Pills
and to nothing else.”
Longevity of Tortoises.
They say that the biggest Galanagos
tortoise now in Bronx park, New
York city, is at least 400 years old.
and so must have been living when ,
ColumbuB died. Dr. Hornaday, of the
New York Zoological society, rests his
faith on Walter Rothschild, of Don
don, who has a tortoise which he says
is much older than that, and Roth
schild has made tortoises his special
study, so that he is recognized as an
expert.
Largest In the World.
Walter Baker & Co., Rtd., Dorches
ter, Mass., are the largest manufactur
ers of cocoa and chocolate in the
world. * They received a gold medal
from the Paris exposition of last year.
This year they have received three
gold medals from the Pan-Ameriean
exposition at Buffalo. Their goods are
the standard for purity and excellence.
The Smallest Piece of Real Eatate.
The smallest parcel of real estate in
New York city is for sale, it is lo
cated at the corner of Third avenue
and East One Hundred and Forty
ninth street, and the lot is 6x14 inches.
A new building is going up on the
corner and the people who are erecting
it wanted the small lot. They offered
$200 for the sit. Frederick Uhl, the
owner, demands $1,000, and will very
likely receive it.
