MASSACRE OF CHRIsTIANs,-Deta have
been received ofthe massacre of native Chris
tians o: Uganea, Africa, by the order Of King
kwauga. Tho massacre began in June and
was directly due 20 tho refusal OF Chris
tian lad acting as tho Kings page to commis
an abominable crime. Many Christians
were tortured, mutiated and speared, and
thirty-two were burnt alive together. The
appeals o! the missionaries for 81 cessation
of atrocities were unevailing. The fate of
these unfortunntes did not sWerye candidates
for baptism, and within !. week after the
massacre many natives were baptized at
their own desire. Leaflets containing ex-
tracts from the Scriptures, prayers and
hymns in the uganda language arc freely
bought by the people, although their pos.
session involves danger Of punishment. The
diary OF Bishop Huntington, who was put
to death by the King. will soon be published
in London. 1t is a thrilling and pathetic
narrative Of bis experiences in Uganda up
to the day Of his death.

THE EGG SUPPLY.--Some people do not
believe that eggs are imported into this
country every year by millions. The Treas
ury Department furnishes the statement,
and that is all we have TO go by. In 1876
the importation Of eggs amounted to $780,
600 in calue. -Four years later in 1880, the
number increased to 7.7773, 400 dozens, and
their value WAS placed al 1901 900. Last
year the figures swelled to 16,O9S,OO0. and
their value to the vast sum of $2,476, 600. In
spite of these figures the Cry often goes up
that there arc too many people raising
chickens" The importations for this year
are far ahead of those of last year, and it is
quite probable that this country will send
to foreign markets for eggs alone, over three
million dollars during the present twelve
months.

Charged with ScalpIng.

OTTAWA, Ont, January 2-The Morn
ing Post of December 25 charges Cap
tain Howard, the American who was in
charge of the Gatlin guns during the
half-breed rebellion In the Northwest.
with having scalped the dead after the
fight at Fish Creek, which took place
at the latter end of May last. The Mon
treal Gazette this morning denies the
charges, and reminds the Post that Cap
tain Howard was not at Fish Creek. and
that he did not arrive there until sew
eral days after the fight. Captain How
ard was on board the Steamer North
cote, which was struck in Saskatohe-
wan, loo miles south of Fish Creek at
the time the skirmish occurred, and if
he had scalped the dead at Fish Creek
he must have dug them out of their
graves. The Post this evening returns
to the charge. and says it was a mistake
in saying the scalping took place at
Fish Creek, but that it can be proven it
was done at BatOchp, when the Canad-,
ian troops carried the village on June.
II. There are several officers and men
here who were at Batoche, and to-day
all OF them admitted that the latter
charge is true. They say Captain How
ard, in their presence, scalped one dead
man after the fight at Batoche. and
when he was here recently he made no
secret about it. The scalping, they say.
took place the day after the fight, when
one Of the wounded rebels died. As TO
whether the man sCalped by Captain
Howard was halfbreed or Indian my
informant could not say. 1t was often
difficult to distinguish. The incident is
likelyto cause stirin French
circles, as Howard is about to start
cartridge factory in the Province of
Quebec. and his neighbOrs will be fnri-
Gus ii they find out he scalped half
breed. On the other hand, as far as the
public has been able to ascertain, neither
Indians nor halt-breeds scalped the dead
at any time during the troubles. In
some cases they mutilated, but did not
scalp.

A " PRETTY a" CASE.
Three Expert cracksmen Arrested by
Captain Tom Hughes.

During the months OF November and
December numerous burglaries took
place in the city, and the police were
completely batiled as to who the perpe-
traitors were. Burglaries at Mrs. Tobin,
Mrs. Cole. Mrs. Faville, Mr.. Clark, Mr..
Prescott, Colonel BelKnap and Claude
Duvars houses were committed in rapid
succession. A short time ago a letter
found its way into the hands of the City
Marshal, which disclosed a scheme to
rob Messrs. LapOwski's store at Coma
les. The letter was written by a young
man in their employ, and the person to
whom it was addressed was a.ked TO

loathsome Leprosy.

LANSING, Ia, January 2.-The Mirror
today says: IT is authoritatively stated
that there exists near the village of
Spring Grove, Houston county, Mimi, a
large number of cases of leprosy. The
afflicted persons are all Scsndinavisns
from the northern part of Norway. The
first victim was an old man, and the dis
ease was at first thought to be measles,
as red spots appeared all over his body.
Later he was seized with excruciating
pains in his limbs and his extremities
began to wither. This continued and
thelepiderms began to scale off, and now
there is so semblance of skin over the
flesh. The body retains its flesh, but
the limbs have withered and dried until
the fingers and toes are like sticks, snd
are ready to drop of. The disease also
exists in three or four other families, all
related. Physicians from DEBORAH pro-
nounce it leprOsy, and say the disease

HARRIsBURG, Pa, January 2.-For the

been pastor of the Salem Reformed
Church, which numbers in its congrega-

marked about 1t. A young attorney

subsequently he was reading = volume

the similarity. Upon invs stigstion the
discovery was made that the sermon
preached by Rev. Mr.. Snyder as original
was the work OF Mr.. Talmage. Some
prominent church members told Mr..
Snyder that he had better resign, as his
further connection with the church
would decrease the congregation. Mr..

Another Siren in the Hooks.

On Saturday morning verdsnt indi-
vidual, bearing the cOgnomen Of John
MCGEE, made an affidavit before Justice
Crawford against one Hattie Baxter, a
very. very soiled damsel, with whom, 1t
seems, MCGEE had previously been on
lovers terms. He said Hattie had ap-
propriated six of his $50 gold pieces
without his consent, and having been
told she had done 1t, Hattie returned
three OF them. saying it was all she had.
His confidence in her was shaken, how
ever. and he enlisted the blind Goddess
to assist him in accounting for the dis
crepancy. The warrant. for her arrest
was executed by Deputy Constable
Krempkau. and Hattie was brought into
court, where she waived an examins-
tion and was placed under $500 bond
to await action of the grand jury. Hat
tie failed to give the bond, however, and
now lsnguishes in the dungeon OF the
wicked and friendless.

Getting in the Wrong House.

Mexican, WAS before the Recorder this

peace of Mr.. Herman Brendel and fam
lily last night. Mr.. Brendel testified that
he was awakened by a man trying to
get in at the window. As the fellow
raised the window Mr.. d. dealt him
blow which knocked him back, and then
he went away. Ramos said he was
drunk and mistook the house for one
where disreputable women lived. This
was his excuse. He was informed that
getting in at the window was not even
countenanced at these houses, and a
fine Of 81 was accordingly imposed.

SMALLPOX in the City.

Four well-developed and unmistaka-
BILE cases of smallpox were reported in
the city Saturday, all Of them being
Mexicans. Three of the cases were in
one family, living in what is known as
sinners corral, in the SFirst Ward, and
the fourth case is on Carr's Hill. AS the
patients are residents and unknown to
each other. living in widely different
portions of the city, it is feared the
losthsome malsdy may prove epidemic.
Every precautiOn has been taken, how
ever, to prevent its spreading.
