LONDON. March 7.-!'rlvatc Information
received In London confirms the rumors of
negotiations between Lord Kitchener. Sir
Alfred Mllricr and Commandant Oenerat
Louis tlotha. Nothtn Is known as to the
actual presenco of the Uoer commander-in-chief
at I'retorla and no London paper
publishes tho statement that he Is there,
btu It Is reasonably certain Jhat General
Uotha Is either In personal or very close
touch with Lord Kitchener. Today Sir
Henry Campbell'Ilannerman will endeavor
to extract some Information from the gov
ment on the subject In the House of Com
mons. The Associated I'ress Is Informed that Sir
Alfred Mllner lias gone to Pretoria with
the object of assisting Lord Kitchener In
these negotiations, the length of which
appears to be due to General Ilotha's de
sire to consult with Acting President
Srhalkburgor, and to mako terms applying
to the whole llocr force, but militating
gainst this Is Lord Kitchener's doubt as
to Ilotha's ability to control Dewot and
other leaders or well na tho Internal op
position General Uotha is encountering.
Ililtlsli IVel Murr nf It.
One of tho best Informed South African
authorities said to a representative of the
Associated Press last evening; "We havo
llttlo doubt that Botha will surrender.
The question now Is, What forces he can
bring with hint. Wc have private Informa
tlon going to show that Lord Kitchener and
Sir Alfred Mllner havo dec filed to accept
his surrender on tho basis that he Is merely
au Individual commander ruther than commander-in-chief
of the enemy's forces.
tiencral Uewet and General Delarey, as
well as the o.hcr leaders, wl 1 probably have
to be dealt with Individually on similar
terms. If tho negotiations with Genernl
Ilotha reach a successful termination. It
will be, to uo an expressive Americanism,
Just one of the bunch.
Dr. I.o)(U llospoitsllilr.
"It Is understood that Dr. Lcyds was re
cently negotiating to sccuro peace terms,
but when It was discovered that ho was
merely acting farce, not being In com
munication with General tlotba or not able
to live up to iho tentRt'vu suggestions made,
tho Drltlsh government having learned his
views, quickly ended tho proceedings, cspo
dally when It was found that Lord Kltch
ncr was treating with General Botha, wrlle
Dr. Lords was unable to speak authorita
tively for tho force In tho field."
. Curiously enough, tho War ofllec seems
genuinely without definite Information re
garding tho exact status of affairs. The
ureal financial Arms whoso interests In
South Africa aro almost equal to thoo of
tho government believe from their private
advices that the present situation Is likely
to result In tho surrender of General Ilotha
nd tho forces under his command, whllo
tbc other llocr unltB will remain In tho
field.

from Colesburg. dated March 7:

The Kidnappers Unknown But
Suspected.
Mrs. Slocum of this city has for Bomo
time greatly excited her friends by her
unexpected absence trom their circles. All
kinds of conjectures were made regarding
her fate. Tho other moinlug when the
mental strain had reached Its climax she
returned perfectly well and as gay as a
girl of sweet sixteen, Tho lady was at
once- stormed with questions. These she
tried to answer as best she could. "Yes,
dears," sho replied, In answer to the ques
tions they wcio putting to her, "1 have
been kidnaped In a way and bad to pay a
good round sum for my release. You ro
member how my face was made horrid by
pimples and blotches; well, they becamo
worso and worse. I was ashamed, to leave
tho houee. I tried many physicians and It
makes mo sick to think of the stuff they
proscribed. I might as well havo thrown
my money in the tire. A few days ago I
heard of the wonderful laxatlvo tonic, Css
varlne, and as It cured pimples, blackheads
and mauo tho complexion clear, I tried it.
It was very pleasant and did not gripe me
the least bit. 1 put llttlo faith In It at
llrst. but found, to my surprise, that my
complexion was becoming clearer and my
pimples were leaving me. After eight
weeks' treatment I stand hero today u
entirely different woman, feeling better
uvery way. My face Is no more covered
with pimples or blackheads, and I feel con
siderably better and healthier. I always
keep a bottle of Cascarlne at home and
adviso every woman to do the same." It
Is tho only family laxative for men, women
and children, and cures absolutely all dis
orders of the stomach, bowels, liver and
kidneys. Cascarlne Is pleasant In taste,
pleasing In action and has no bad effects.
It Is not a. (ablet or a pill, and will not
gripe like other laxatives, Tho most del
icate stomachs can take It without Injurious
effects.
Cascarlno sells t ttfty cents per bottle.
At all druggls'ts.
When you ask for Cascarlne be sure you

OMAHA. March 6 -To the LMltor of The
Bte- The question of revising the course of
study In the Omaha schools Is one of vital
Importance to the patrons of the school. The
fsct that something Is wrong in our Omalu
schools has been evident to the majority
nf the patrous for ionic time. There seema
to be a wldo gap between the grades and
the High school. Tho pupils from the
grades arc not prepared to enter the High
school and do creditable work. The trouble
Is not so much In the course of study as
In tho fact that they arc uot sutllctcntly
grounded In tho elementary branches; nor
Is It entirely practical or possible for tho
average pupil to thoroughly master these
primary branches at the age at which tnoJt
of them enter the High school.
Much could be accomplished In the grades
by cutting off soma of the frills and Ismj
with which many of the teachers delight to
entertain their pupils. There should bo
more thorough work in grammar, arithme
tic, geography, etc. What would you think
of a pupil entering tho High schoot who
could not handle common fractions, or did
not understand the elements of English
grammar? Yet tho pupils ore rupposed to
havo completed these branches. In Inter
viewing one of the High school teachers
e learned that out of a class of forty or
more pupils that had Just entered the High
school, three only understood the construc
tion of an English sentence. And these
pupils graduate from the grades! Imagine
their fitness to begin the study of Latin
and what a handicap to the High school
teachers.
It Is often discussed why so many drop
out of the High schoo). Is It any wonder
that a pupil gets discouraged nnd quits
when It dawns upon him that h? had not
been properly prepared In the grades for
this work?
As before suggested It wbutd bo better to
require the pupils to spend one or two
more years In tho grades with a view to
thoroughly grounding them In those
branches which they must master to sue.
ccssfully pursue their studies In the High
school, and also that they may become more
matured? It would be suicidal to think
of lowering the High school grade: a
thousand times bettor ralso It.

barely a semblance of the so-called "negro"
minstrel show of a few years ago. Instead,
the audience Is treated to truo minstrels),
a modern entertainment In which musical
numbers, both vocal and Instrumental,
splendidly rendered, predominated. Mr.
West has gathered together thU season au
array of musical talent that Is second to
none to be found In a minstrel entertain
ment today. His specialty people arc all
up to standard and make the vaudc
vlllo olio, or second part, a pleasant hour's
amusement,
Tho first part Is set in green, white and
gold and represents a mammoth stairway of
magnificent distances, upon which Is seated
the entire company. Billy Van and Ernest
Tcnny hold down the ends, while Mr. West,
of course, acts as Interlocutor. Besides the
comic songs nnd up-to-date gags that arc
introduced during the first part, the In
imitable contra-tenor, R J. Jose, rendered
two sentimental ballads 'as only he la cap-
nblo of doing, Mnnuel Romain, a promising
young tenor, sang beautifully a popular
nlr of tho day. John P. Rogers, who Is the
possessor of a rich, deep bass voice that la
pleasant to listen to, sang two popular
solos. A quintet composed of Jose, Rogers,
Romalu, Roscdale ami Hammond,' sang "The
Holy City," which proved quite the feature
of tho entertainment.
The engagement was for but n single
performance.

Mr. Mumlt, who was a special representa

In which he said:
"J'or your Information I dctlre to point

Plaintiff's lawyer got along iwlmmlngly

the lawyer for the defendant took him In

"Now, Mr. Bell," asked the laryer. "If
the evidence In this caso should happen to
be evenly divided would the fact that the
defendant Is a corporation Influence your
action nt a Juror?"
"I think It would," promptly responded
the Juror. "If the witnesses differed I
would give the benefit of the doubt to the
plaintiff, who Is a private Individual, as
against the defendant corporation."
"Wouldn't you follow the Instructions of

"Yes, ! would; but I understand tho Jury

WASHINGTON, March . A copy of the
proposed Philippine tariff schedule, as rec
ommended by the PhlllDnlne commission
has "been forwarded to the Wnr department.
In his letter of transmittal Judge Taft calls
attention to the fact that the bill In Its
entirety has never before been printed, Its
publications heretofore having been very
scant nnd Inaccurate. The classification of
the Cuban tariff has been followed In the
main.
in two cues only, throughout the cntlro
bill, arc ad valorem duties assessed, namely,
on crude materials and on goods not else
nere provniea tor, at 10 and 25 per cent
respecmciy. This is entirely satisfactory
to mo utisincds interests In tho Philip
iuui-5, it is siaicu, as tue just and proper
appraisement or imported merchandise Is
entirely beyond tho existing customs serv
ice, and the mercantile classes are disposed
to accept nny tariff which the commission
proroiis, provided the duties are all t peclflc.
inrougnout tno bill tho question of rev
cnue nas been kept steadily In view. The
necessary products, raw materials of Philip
pine Industries, tools, Implements aud ma
cnincry or production, tho materials of
transportation by land nnd sea, and the
producers and transmitters of power havo
been taxed as lightly ns possible.
CoimttiiUTft' Condltlnnn Indiieii t Int.
To manufactured goods nnd articles h.tve
been assigned rates graduated to the menus
and necessities of the consumers, due re
gard being had to the many existing in
dustries and to those which must be In
evltably Introduced In the near futute
Luxuries, whether In beverages, food, cloth
ing, carriages or ornaments, havo been
taxed as highly as Is consistent with the
production of the most rovenuc. Kerosene
oil, which Is even now cheaper than tho
natlvo cocoanut oil. has been reduced to a
point which, In tho opinion of the com
mission, will cause tho greatest lmporta
tlon nnd the largest revenue.
The duty on coal has been reduced 50
per cent. On crude petroleum, which, It Is
stateu, owing to the great nnd still advanc
ing prices of coal, must soon come Into use
as a tuei, tno duty has been reduced to
almost a nominal rate. Building materials
of every description ami all Industrial ma
chinery bear but little burden. Tho schemci
of duties on Jewelry and mounted precious
stones, It Is believed, will fairly adjust
specific duties according to the values, and
will greatly lucrcase the Income therefrom.
The tariff on watches Is so regulated nu to
greatly reduco the present prices of tho
lower grades. The present tariff tar.es all
gold watchea nt $3.23. and all others at
1.31. Under tho new bill tho cheapest
watch unjeweled Is charged 25 ccuttf, and
tho cheapest Jeweled watch In a silver case
will pay SO ccntu.
Dressed leather, boots nnd shoes, hard
rubber goods nnd waterproof stuffs ure
moderately taxed. In tissues of cotton and
linen tho heavily weighted goods aro
greatly reduced, Tho earths and siring In
troduced Into theso articles by somo manu
facturers to mako weight and glvo a de
ceptive finish must be removed by washing
and drying before assessing tho duty. Silks
navo been raited about B0 per cent.
Knsy on Food Product.
All food products and canned goods havo
como In for a large reduction. Tho duty on
wheat flour has been reduced largely.
As to exports, tho tax on abaca has been
doubled, and as It cannot bo produced else
where the revenues resulting. It Is stated.
can be Increased without being burdensome
In the Philippines. On copra nlso Increased
demand and price has led to the belief that
a tat similar to that on abaca can be
levied without appreciably affecting tho
producer or burdening his power of com
petition.
Judgo Taft cnlls especial attention to
tho term "net weight" as It Is used In tho
bill. Except ns to certain cotton yarns,
"net weight" signifies tho actual weight
of tho Imported merchandise proper, with
out packing, container or anything clso
used In preparing tho goods for transportation.
