St. Petersburg, -April 12.--The belated election leturns have only tended lo increase the magnitude of the victory of lhe opposition to the present government party, which will shortly step down aud out. A complete re-organization of the cabinet is expected at an early date. Many people believe that tbe present bitter tight which is being waged between Premier Witte and Minister of. the Interior Duronovo will ultimately result in the resignation of both officials. New York, April 12.���The anthracite coal mine operators have, as the result of a meeting which has just been .held, emphatically declined lo accept the proposal of the miners to si,bmit to arbitration the difficulties existing between them. The ������anthracite miners strike extends to all mines throughout Missouri, Kansas, Arkansas, Oklahoma, Indian Territory and Arizona, ��� ���where everything, is closed clown and will remain so 'until the strike is settled.

London, April 13.���Replying to a numerously signed Protestant protest against the approaching . marriage of Princess Ena of Battenberg to Kiirg Alfonso ol Spain, Home Secretary Gladstone points out that the assent of King Edward is not necessary to the marriage. .Vancouver, April 13.���The C. P. R. steamer Princess Beatiice sailed for Skagway and Canadian way points on Tuesday night. She took a considerable quantity of building material for the proposed new hotel at Conrad, Y. T. 'She also took some material, for Rivers Inlet ordered by G. I. Wilson, of this city, for use in. the re-construction of the Bain-Wilson cannery, which was blown ��� down last week by a small tornado. . GENERAL NKWSl Senator Chauncey M. Depew "is reported lo.be in a state of complete nervous collapse at New York. The Mystic i Shriners, of Seattle, have chartered the C. P. R. steamer Princess Victoria aud will tour Alaska riext mouth. - "Joe "Gans'-aud- Rufe Turnerrtwo of the cleverest colored boxers in the world, are scheduled to fight iii Seattle next month. Tbe dock at the foot of Columbia street, Seattle, collapsed on April 5th. Eighteen persons were thrown into the water but were rescued. A Dawson despatch says that the Guggenheimers are taking over all the Treadgold interests on Bonanza creek, aud which they had under bonds for $500,000. From Chicago comes tbe statement that Dowie has been deposed as tbe bead of Zion City aud that even his wife joined the movement against him. Wilbur Glen Voliva is Dowie's successor. A report from Oerel, Russia, of April 6th stated that a proclamation against tbe Jews, which bad been issued from tbe government printing- office there, had been widely distributed among tbe people and an Easier massacre was believed to be a certainty.1 , Russia has submitted a plan to President Roosevelt to re-convene tbe Hague peace conference early in tbe coming summer. The Netherlands have indorsed the proposal. Since the disposition of the Alge- ciras affair the powers are free to act individually. 'A late Madrid despatch said: A plot to assassinate the whole of the Spanish royal family during holy week has been discovered by the authorities. Anarchists are said to be the plotters. Details are meagre as tbe censorship will not allow news to be given out. Actual-fighting occurred last week at. the Edna mine near Irwin, Pa. The strikers were ���licavilv armed and kept up a steady fire upon the strike breakers and prevented them from working. Tbe coal operators decided that il was unsafe lo try to further introduce non-union men. - - Tbe N. W. M. P. patrol which left Dawson last December for, Fort Macpherson," near the mouth of the McKenzie . river, arrived back in Dawson last week. The officer in charge ol the patrol, Corp. Mapley, reports .having encountered severe cold- weather and deep snow on tbe way. General Vou Mack, who is bead of the Red Cross branch of tbe Russian army, returned to Moscow from tbe far east last week and created a sensation there by declaring that the Japanese are making extensive preparations for war and will'fight the Americans for tbe possession of the Phillippines. ��� A fire broke out in the eighth story of tbe Chamber of Commerce building, Portland, Ore., on April 6th and Horner Allcock,. a prominent railroad man, took to the fire .escape but its fastenings gave way and he fell to the walk below and was instantly killed. Many others saved their lives by jumping from tbe eighth story windows into the iife nets. '��� Mr. Clapp, a club chef, was injured by breaking through a life net. ' 1 At Moscow, ou April 3rd, a leading newspaper published telegrams from a Harbin correspondent saying hostilities are imminent between Russian and Chinese troops. The Chinese, influenced by Tapan, are moving forward 011 the Russians. Demobilization of tbe Russian army had been stopped and General Groi- doff, the Russian commander iu chief, bad issued orders lo prepare for an emergency and, if an .attack is made, to occupy tbe Chinese strongholds. Tbe situation was becoming intense. The Russian aud Chinese ministers in conference at Pekin over the Matichurian question had, orr April 6th, failed to arrive at an agreement. Russia demands that all the privileges she now enjoys iu Manchuria be permanently guaranteed. On the other hand it is the determined policy of China to withstand all foreign encroachments upon her territory. Both countries have powerful armies stationed in Manchuria ready for immediate action and open hostilities ���. are liable to break out at any time. '"���'��� A Naples despatch of the 7th inst says: Large streams of lava are pouring from Mount Vesuvius, which is again in active eruption, aud from which the beat is felt for miles. Ottajaiio aud Torre del Greco, cities of twenty and thirty thousand people respectively, are threatened with destruction. Bos- cotveaz is being evacuated aud residents of villages for miles around are panic stricken and fleeing for safety. The churches are filled with men, women and children carrying statues and praying for a miracle to stop the deathly and destructive flow. <&. <r if' ]; i-"il , 1 !���-. '���} - M*LXN, B. Cm.

Students of the Hills. Possibly'no class of. working people have so great an opportunity and provocation to read and study as intelligent gold miners. As a rule they work fewer hours in the day, and nights. Sundays and iu stormy weather the quiet of their cabins is undisturbed by the cares of a family. Persons who never lead before do solo kill tlie lonesome hours that maybe fullpf sad memories,'and to drive away regrets for ill success. By crowding tbe mind to repletion-they deaden the fangs of "hunger of tbe heart," which, undiverted, would often sink sadly, in its chamber when no familiar voice of olden time smote ou its sounding board. In the outset,, when nothing better could be had, they may have read novels, good or bad, but it is entirely possible that more is known in the cabin homes in western gold fields of the works of standard authors in both poetry and prose, than within an equal area of where these productions emanated. Now that other books in abundance are within easy reach, and novel reading is left to inferior intelligence?, tbe higher order of minds follow the pen tracks of the historian, poet or essayist. It is not uncommon in latter mining days on cabin shelves to find Shakespeare. Byron, Macaulay, historical or classical works ol American and English literature, and once tbe writer was more than surprised at finding, lucked between the logs of the cabin, a copy of "Demosthenes on the Crown." Asking "Who reads Greek in lhis ranch?" a rough- looking man, kneading bread, replied that he "used to read il in a New Kugland College,"' and had "brought it from home among other traps.'* fn another instance iu the northern mountains, a .Yale graduate named Wells, who bad come to the land of gold with tbe early rush, was possessor of a little Hbr.iry which vouched for his scholarly attainments and advanced literary taste. But Wells found' himself lo be physically unequal to the task of delving for gold, and had bravely assumed the duties of chef with a prosperous mining.company, a position which he tilled with rare credit to himself and the unbounded satisfaction of those be served. An early days friend who mined a few years showed the writer a copy of "Webster's Unabridged" which hiuiself and companions packed all over Northern California, and to which final reference was made in political discussions. These may be extraordinary instances, but they'are mentioned only as cases of devotion lo letters under difficulties. "While 1 write the sail truth I hat very many miners waste their spare hoursand their money in places of dissipation, il is gratifying to know that a great number are more profitably occupied. It is not easy to estimate the result of these quid hours, days and months of cabin-home reading and reflection. Possibly many a 'romance or poem has lent its aid as the result of a pacific literature, to a statesman, who arose lo prominence independent of the lifting hooks of party. Men whose genius has split despotic thrones and made republics of the fragments have come unheralded from among the people, aud writers whose pens have left traces of living lire have studied and written in the obscurity of a hovel. Within the humblest cottage'df the masses, aud guided by a youth untried in battle, the v-pen of true genius is as mighty as the sword of the Corsican.���San Francisco Mining aud Engineering Review.
