Injunction Against Talking.
No one in Omaha has yet been
restrained by injunction from
breathing, but the matter has al
most reached that limit. The
most radical move was the issu
ing of an injunction to restrain a
woman who lived in a flat from
talking so much, as her landlord
claimed it drove his other tenants
away. Possibly we don't talk
too much, but we certainly all
are too active and lacking in re
pose. We need, almost without
exception, golden grain belt beer
to quiet our nerves and tone us
down to slower, more comfort
able living. It is pure and de
licious and should be in every
home. Order of your nearest
dealer or be supplied by John
Essler, Bemidji.
Climbing Mountains.
Is a fascinating and invigor
ating pastime. It developes not
the body only, but the mind. The
Alpine Peaks of Switzerland have
their counterpart in our own
country, in the Sierras, the Cas
cades, and parts of the Rockies.
The greatest glacial peak of
the United States is Mt. Ranier
in Washington, more than 15,500
feet high. This magnificent
mountain has 15 or more giant
glaciers creeping down its sides
and discharging their glacial de
tritus into the Columbia river or
Puget Sound.
A climb to the summit of this
is a mountaineering feat worthy
of any mountaineer. For 25 centf
Chas. S. Fee, Gen'l Passenger
Agent of the Northern Pacific
railway, St. Paul, Minn.will
send to any address an illustarted
booklet called. "Climbing Mt. Ra
nier" describing a climb over gla
ciers to the top of the moun
tain.

Want Column KILL S TH E TREAT WARSHIP S mm
Washington, Aug. 19.A cablegram
dated Aug. 12 has been received at the
state department from Minister Beau
pre at Bogota, saying that the Panama
canal treaty has been unanimously re
jected by the Colombian senate. Pres
ident Roosevelt was immediately ad
vised of the news. Mr. Beaupre's tele
gram being forwarded by Acting Sec
retary Loomis to Oyster Bay.
Very little additional information
concerning the action of the Colom
bian senate could be ftbtalfted at the
state department
The. reason given for thJ rejection of
the treaty by the Colombia senate, it
is said here, was the alleged en
croachment on Colombian sovereignty,
which its opponents contended would
result from the treaty.
Civil War Will Result.
Panama, Aug. 19.It is confidently
predicted here that civil war will re
sult from the defeat of the Panama
canal treaty by the Colombian con
gress.
There is a strong sentiment among
the Liberals, who recently were de
feated after a long struggle, and also
by many Conservatives in favor of se
cession by the department of Panama,
which includes the entire isthmus, in'
order that the construction of the
canal may be assured.
That the government fears a revolu
tion is shown by the appointment of
Gen. Lucia Valagoo, a distinguished
army officer, as military commander
of the department of Panama.
What Will Become of Panama?
Panama, Aug. 19. The unanimous
rejection of the Panama canal treaty
by the senate has caused a profound
impression here in all circles.

5 The
question on all lips is what will be
come of Panama? The only consola
tion the isthmians have is that the
rest of the republic, "with the ex
change at a very high figure and with
an upward tendency, will suffer a great
deal more. It seems that the govern
ment never expected the treaty to be
ratified, and it was not supported at
all in the senate.
Rejection a Heavy Blow.
Colon, Aug. 19.The rejection of fTie
canal treaty by the Colombian senate
has produced tremendous excitement
on the isthmus. It was generally be
lieved that the treaty would pass with
some modifications. There is good
reason to suppose that the majority of
the members of the senate regarded
the Spooner amendment to build a
canal by the Nicaraguan route if the
Panama route was rejected by Colom
bia, as a mere threat on the part of the
United States. They are convinced
that the Xicaragnan project is impossi
ble, and that the United States will
again deal with Colombia. The rejec
tion is a heavy blow to property own
ers here who have been investing
heavily on tne prospects of the treaty
being ratified.
BIG IRRIGATION WORKS.
C. P. R. Will Expend $10,500,000 on
New Selections of Land.
Ottawa, Ont., Aug. 19. It is an
nounced that an agreement has been
made whereby the Canadian Pacific
railway is soon to make excepting
500,000 acres, its last selections of land
In the Northwest Territories. This se
lection wi 1 more than 3,000,000
acres, e" 2di:i easterly from Cal
gary to 3.!/,un,
and cover a tract of
145 miles Irjng by 50 wide, along Lhe
main line, in the semi-arid belt. The
Canadian Pacific purposes to expend
$3.50 an acre in irrigation works, or a
total of $10,500,000. This land was se
lected deliberately instead of the more
fertile areas remote from the main ilne
which m'?ht in the future make busi
ness for a competing line. The re
maining 500.000 acres, it is understood,
will be selected along the route of the
Manitoba & Northwestern Railway
line. It is the understanding that the
irrigation project is to be taken up at
once, and that actual work may be
commenced next year.

Oyster Bay, L. 1.. Aug. 10.For the
first time in the history of the country
the president of the United States yes
terday reviewed and Inspected, in time
of peace, a great tleet of United Stales
warships. The ceremony was a mag
nificent and impressive naval spec
tacle. It was unmarred by tlw slight
est mishap until just at. its conclusion',
when the torpedo boat destroyer P.:,.r
ry rammed the destroyer Decatur,
however, doing little damage.
The incident was exciting. It oc
curred just at the moment when the
president ua receiving congratula
tions upon the success of the ma
neuvers.
The first squadron of destroyers,
consisting of the Decatur, Haiubrld^e,
Barry, Hale and Chauncey, all under
command of Lieut. L. H. Chandler, was
approaching the Mayflower at mil
speed. The vessels were in close
formation. Orders were signalled
front Decatur to the other vessels
to form a wedge. In executing the or
ders the Decatur swung across the
bow of the Barry. An instant later the
.'_ Barry Rammed Her
on the starboard side. As the ships
were running at a speed of twenty
knots an hour the blow was tre
mendous. The Decatur listed sharply
to port and seemed to he in serious
distress. From the Mayflower she ap
peared to be sinking.
The Mayflower's boats were manned
instantly, but were not lowered, as the
Decatur was seen to right herself, in
a few minutes she hoisted a signal of
"No serious damage."
Admiral Dewey ordered Lieut
Chandler to proceed with the five ves
sels to the Brooklyn navy yard, where
such repairs as may be necessary
could be made quickly. After the dam
age has been repaired the squadron
will rejoin the fleet and continue the
summer maneuvers.
In commenting on the accident Ad
miral Dewev said that such an acci
dent was a part of the war game and
must, at times, be expected.
The Grand Review.
The re vie .v occurred on Long Island
sound, two miles and a half off the en
trance to OysUr Bay. President
Roosevelt, in company with Secretary
of the Navy Moody, Admiral Dewey,
Rear Admiral Taylor. Rear Admiral
Rodgers, Capt. Brownson, Gen.
Chaffee and Gen. Barry, stood on the
bridge of the auxiliary cruiser May
flower as Hhe steamed slowly down one
column of the warships and up the
other. As the Mayflower passed each
ship in ehe two columns, the yards and
rails of each were manned by jakies
in white duck, the marines were pa
raided and presented arms, the presi
dent's salute of twenty-one guns was
fired, the buglers sounded a flourish,
the drummers gave four ruffles, the
band played "Hail Columbia" and the
entire crew stood at salute.
Entertained by President.
At the conclusion of the review
President Roosevelt received on board
the Mayflower Rear Admiral Albert S.
Barker, commander-in-chief of the
North Atlantic fleet Ri-ar Admiral
James A. Sands, commander of tr*i
Carribean squadron Rear Admiral
Joseph B. Coghland, commanding the
coaBt squadron, and Rear Admiral
William C. Wise, commanding tne
training squadron. He also received
the captains and commanding officers
of the twenty-two vessels in the fleet.
President Roosevelt entertained his
guests and all the commanding officers
of the fleet at a delightful luncheon on
board the Mayflower
