Vice President's Illness More Seri
ous Than H's Physicians at
First Supposed.
Probability That e Will Not Be
flble to flccept Renorrjina
tion for Office.
Nkw YditK, Sept. 2o. The Press
ply: li is possible that iro Presi
dent ilohut may bo unable to preside
at tin! next scs-ion of the United
State bO'JUlo.
More iban that, it is now recognized
that it is a serious probability that he
wili no hu in phjsie tl condition to 110

male of Piesldent McKinley in the
next campaign.
'1 he disease from which Mr. Hobatt
hull.MM is a kidney trouble, not i.cuto,
but. of a form requiring absolute rest
for a -oiig time. The fact hs been
known to his friend?, but this is the
lirt announcement that his illness is
n roilouit aw to threaten an actual
withdrawn- from the duties of his pub
lic position.
This il.nHs began with an attack of
tho g ip in Georgia lust airing, lie
returned thence to Washington,
where he suffered a relapse, being1
confined to his house for several
weeks. Then he went to Long- Branch
and recovered suHicieiulv to join his
friend, tho president, during a part of
bis outing at Luke Champlain.
Since his return last Tuesday to his
home in Pa'orBoii the vice president
has not visitt d his ot'lce in the Sav
ings bank building. It is said that ho
can make no effort without exhaus
tion. His private secretary says:
'Tim trouble with Mr. llobart is that
as soon as he feels strong enough to
work he pitches in so hard that he
ho m:ikes himself ill again."
It is now nearly six months since
tho vice pre.-ident, despite long
periods of rest, has been able to de
vote lime continuously to business.
KitKg-in-iit At Subig Hay.
W ASUINOTOX ,Sept. 24. Acting Sec
retin v Aileti of ihe navy department
received a o -Die-gram from 1 ear Ad
miral Watson today giving a brief ac
count of tho engagement at Subig bay.
It is dated the 24tn, at Manila, and says:
"Maisdera discovered heavy guns

"Insurgnt tire heavy but pooriy
aimo.i; eneraj 'h loss unknown. Full

Tne important feature of tho en
gagement is th fact which is disclosed
that the insurgents have been ablo to
obtain Krupp guns. It was known at
the time of the outbreak of the insur
gents ngninst -he A me-icans that the
nrtiilery of the insurgents consisted of
a few bsoleti- guns captured from the
Spaniards.
Acting Secrct.uy Allen sajsthatit
is evident that the n.vy at Manila
does net intend to allow any fort to be
erect- d which can be reached by the
ships, Htid he is convinced that the
squadron un lor Rear Admiral Watson
will be able to keep the shores guarded
and repeat iho lesson of yesterday if
the insurgents are found to bo operat
ing on the coast.

They have, however, no informa

Los ANOELKH, Cal., Sept. ill. Oill-
i u. 1 roorla of two buttle between
Mexicans and Yaqui Dave jum been

among the latter Lieutenant Colonel
Navarro of the Eleventh battalion, one
of the best officers on the Mexican
side.
The report of a battle on the 18th
comes from another source, also offi
cial, in d its statements of the number
lulled may bo accepted. According
to this report tho forces under Colonel
Hernandez, number not stated, en
countered 1,000 Indians near Lake Zi
qucca, a small lagoon between Tonn
and l'otarn. The Indians retired from
tho open Cold and sought cover in the
thic woods, whoro the combat raged
for more than two hours, beginning at
G o'clock in th3 morning. The report
says the Indians wore defeated and
dispersed, leaving on the field eighty
seven dead .
1 he Mexican lo?so are stated as
fourteen soldiers killod and thirty-six
wounded. Major Ruiz of the national
guard was mortally wounded and Jul
ian Espinosa, captain of the Yaquis
who are friendly to the Mexicans, and
Tetebiates, a lieutenant in the ten
j'ears' war, was killed.
An interesting feature of the reports j
is tho statement that several inhabi- j
tants of river towns who were taken
prisoners by the Yaquis in July have
been released and have returned to
headquarters in Torin. Heretofore
the Mexicans have represented the
Y quis as invar inb!y torturing and
kil.lng all prisoners.

THE ROUGHS OF LONDON.
A good story la told of the way In
which a London place" of amusement
vas ridden of a band of roughs who
made it their occupation o insult and
molest the most quiet people, especial
ly any whom they guessed to be coun
try visitors.
They became such a nuisance that
several men about town, among whom
were Lord Alvanley and Keppal
Craven, laid a plot to get rid of them.
They hired Mendoza, the famous
prize-fighter, and dressed him up as a
dean, with a shovel, hat and apron.
Another prize-fighter, a short man,
was dressed as a middle-aged lady,
and passed as the dean's wife, and one
evening they were seated at Vauxhali
in a conspicuous position to watch th
fireworks.
It was not long before the old-fashioned
countrified pair attracted the at--tention
of the gang, who assailed them
with every kind of coarse raillery and
insult, an oi wnicn mey Dure verj
bore
ekly. At length one of the perse-
cutors, growing bolder by impunity.
stepped up to the dean and squirted
an orange Into his eye. On this the
dean, rising, said in a meek, quiet tone.
"Really, gentlemen, I have borne a
great deal, but I must put a stop to
this."
With hat his hat went one way and
his coat another, and, followed by his
"wife." he sprang Into the middle of
i i.. t,l4l n all A i-Atf An a
me pari, uhwub ...
Filled with astonishment and terror,
some fled and some tried to show fight,
but the handling that they got from
the prize-fighters was too severe for
the fracas to last long.
All the time Lord Alvanley and hii
friends, who were In the boxes, were
calling out in delight. "Go it. Mr.
Dean! Give It 'em, Mrs. Dean!" An
effectual stop was thus put to the an
stoyance. How to Paper TThlUuhd Wall.1
It is dlfflcult to make paper stick to
walls that hare been made smooth by
frequent whitewashing. The smooth
finish may be scraped off or the surface
may be changed with a coat of paste.
If you decide to use the paste make
it In the following manner: Put one
pint of flour in a saucepan and beat
into It one quart of cold water. When
smooth add two quarts of boiling wa
ter, stirring all the time. Let this
boll up occe. then strain and cool.
Brush this pi.t .-ver the walls and
allow it to dry. When you are ready
to paper wet the walls, spread the
paste on the paper and bang it in the
usual manner.
,A GUNBOAT CAPTURED.1
Rebels Get Possession of a United

Crew of the

or Have Been
Prisoners
Killed by Natives.
Manila, Sept. 25 4:30 p. m. It i
repoi tea thai the Insurgents have cap
tured the United Sintes gunboat IJr
daneta in the Orani rive, on the
north west side of Manila b y, whore
It was patrolling. One officer ana
nino of its crew are missing.
I he United States gunboat l'trel
sent to investigate the matter, re
turneo and reporti-d that tho Uruan
eta bo.iched opposite tho town of
Orani, on the O ani river. It was
riddled with uiiets and burned and
the following tuns, with tht. r am
munition, were captured: A oi.e
pounder, one Colt automatic gun and
uno Nordenfeldt 2o millimeter gun.
The crew of tho Urdaneta are pris
oners or have been killed. Further
details are lacking.
Very Small Craft.
Washington, s pt 25 The gun
boat Urd ineta, wbic i was captured
with its d ew at OraDi, about twenty-
five miles from Manila on the bay ot
Manila, is a little craft of only fort
tons displacement, not much larger
than a small ug. It was captuied by
the navy early iu tho war ana has
been on police duty in tho bay fur
months past. The records of the
navy Oop irtmeut show that it was one
of the boats of which the Oregon is
the parent ship. '1 hat is, it was sup
posed to draw all its supplies fn-m the
the battleship, to be manned from the
Oregon a crew and to ;ict under the
instructions of the O ebon's com
mander.
According to the last report to tho
department, the little boat was last
May under the command of iaval
Cadet Wilbom C Wood, but the per
sonnel of the crew is not a matter ti
record, be:n subject to fiequeut
change. Wood was appointed to the
Naval academy from Oregon, had
passed his ac-idemic couise and was
performing two years' sea service at
the time of his capture.
Naturaily, the dep.rtaidOt officials
are vexed that the difficulties of the
neg -tlntioiis looking to tho eleaseof
Lieucenati t Gilmore of the Yorktown
and his men -h u d be added to b
this last ra sforlune. Still tuera is no
disposition unnecessarily to curb the
junior fficers of the navy who are
rendering such gal.i.nt 9ei vice in the
Phil ippines.

The C'hluatuan's Insurance.
A childlike faith in the arithmetic
confounds all the logic of the schools.
This was the experience of a Pitts
burg life-insurance agent who wrote a
policy on the life of a Chinaman the
first ever written for a man of that
race In Pittsburg. How the lnsuranct
man did it he alone knows. The China
man had no very clear Idea. He only
understood that If he paid the pre
miums promptly he would be entitled
to five thousand dollars at some future
time. He began botherjng the
agent for the money after a couple of
weeks had passed, and tho agent tried
to explain to him that he would have
to die before any one could got it. Then
the Chinaman fell down a cellarwav
on Grant street and was badly hurt
His friends tried to attend to him
without calling In a doctor. When
they did call In one. two days later, the
doctor was angry. "Why didn't you
call me sooner?" he asked. "This man
Is half dead now." Next day the in
jured man's brother was at the insur
ance office with a claim for twenty-
five hundred dollars. "You're not enti
tled to anything on this," said the In
surance man. "until the man is dead."
Doctor say him half dead," answered
the brother. "Why he no get half?"

Fish That Die "FalUng CpwarO.
'1 he officers of the cab.e steamer

idocean to locate and repair a
oken cable 1,!00 feet below the sur
ce of the water, state that their in
.uments show the bottom of the
ean to have a temperature below the
eezing point, and that there Is a
tal absence of light. The officers say
that a great many of the deep-sea fish
-re so peculiarly constructed that they
often lose their lives by chasing the
instruments toward the surface. They
die by what experts call "falling up
ward." As soon as they get out of
their accustomed level the decreased
pressure extends the air within them
and the fish shoot to the surface, but
are dead before they reach that point.
