HAS A WARLIKE LOOK The Colombian Government Terminates Relations With Venezuela. ACTION IS VIEWED WITH GRAVITY Withdrawal of Minister Rico Last August Is Cause of the Breach—Foreign Dcbl Embarrasses Venezuela — What Ger many's Demands Indicate. WASHINGTON. Nov. 30.—The State department has received confirmation of the notification of the Colombian government to Venezuela that it has terminated diplomatic relations. This came in the shape of a cablegram from Minister Hart. This action is the result of the hasty withdrawal last August from the Venezuelan cap ital of Dr. Rico, the Colombian min ister there. Such a breach does not necessarily mean war, though undoubtedly it is a step in that direction. Venezuela has had several affairs of this kind, some of the European nations with drawing their representatives from Caracas for long terms, and only a year and a half ago our own gov ernment was obliged to give Minister Loomis an indefinite leave of absence from Caracas as a warning to Vene zuela of our dissatisfaction with its attitude in the controversy growing out of the asphalt dispute. It is said that manifestations of foreign disapproval have had very lit tle influence upon the Venezuelan government. It is a significant fact that the breach with Colombia has been created at the moment when Ger many is considering the adoption of compulsory measures to secure the payment by the Venezuelan govern ment of a very high financial liability to German citizens. It is supposed here that President Castro is proceeding under the the ory that the application of the Mon roe doctrine would protect him from unitive action by Germany, but the impression among officials here is that this belief is not well founded. Some of the reports reaching here show there is apprehension on the part of some of the Colombians on the isthmus, including men of consider able influence, as to the duration of the stay of American marines. It has come to the knowledge of officials here that many wild rumors have been circulated on the isthmus as to the. extent of the trouble that the United States forces, having once landed, would not be withdrawn. These reports have led to inquiries between Washington and Panama, bringing out responses that th6 Amer-, ican occupation was wholly imagina tive and that the most definite and; positive assurances had been given; that immediately on the fulfillment of this government’s obligation to, keep open the traffic, our forces woulc'i be debarked, and all authority would be terminated. This purpose of the, authorities has been made known on the isthmus and has served to allay the fears caused by reports of Amer ican occupation. With the resoration of order and open traffic on the isthmus of Pan ama it is expected that the War de partment will be enabled to withdraw some of the United States warships now on duty in that vicinity, and it is probable that one ship will be withdrawn on either side.

KANSAS CITY, Nov. 2'.).--A special to the Star from Medicine l.odge, Kau., says: David Nation was granted a divorce from his wife, Mrs. Carrie Na tion, “the joint smasher."

Thrown From HIh Cub and Killed. The following is a most interesting and, in one respect, pathetic tale: — Mr. J. Pope, 42 Ferrar Road, Streat ham, England, said: “Yes, poor chap, he is gone, dead— horse bolted thrown off his seat on his cab he was driving and killed— poor chap, and a good sort, too, mate. It was him, you see, who gave me the half-bottJe of St. Jacobs Oil that made a new man of me. ’Twas like this: me and Bowman were great friends. Some gentleman had given him a bottle of St. Jacobs Oil which had done him a lot of good; he only used half the bottle, and remembering that I had been a martyr to rheuma tism and sciatica for years, that I had liteially tried everything, had doctors, and all without benefit, I became dis couraged, and looked upon it that there was no help for me. Well,” said Pope, "You may not believe me, for it. is a miracle, but before I had used the contents of the half-bottle of St. Jacobs OH which poor Bowman gave me, I was a well man. There it is, you Bee, after years of pain, after using remedies, oils, embrocations, horse liniments, and spent money on doctors without getting any better, I was completely cured in a few days. 1 bought another bottle, thinking the pain might come back, but it did not, so X gave the bottle away to a friend who had a lame hack. I can't speak too highly of this wonderful pain killer.” For linrkwai'd llondmtien. District Attorney rhilbin of New York City has devised a winning plan for making bondsmen pay up forfeit , ed hail.
