CHINESE MASONIC BURIAL.
A Monaghan Brother of the Mystic
Tie Inferred.

Mr.. Moy Toy You'll prominent Chinese
resident of Chicago and Grand Secretary of
the Chinese Order of Free MaSons in the
United States, was buried Monday in that
city with great pomp and circumstance A
military band played the marches and two
Chinese bands made Intellectual efforts to
awaken the dead with their alleged music.
The deceased was a Chinese druggist who
died about a week ago.
The burial ceremonies took place at Rose
Hill Cemetery, and were marked by the usual
layout Of edibleS, burning of incense sticks
and other pecuiarities of Monaghan funerals
The particular feature of the occasion was
when Young Wah, master of the local lodge
of Chinese Masons, stepped forward and
chanted dirge. He dropped on his knees,
bowed his head low three times, and placed
two tiny cups in each corner of pan. Still
chanting the dirge he rose and retired. Music
followed, and then two other Cinnamon ap-
preached. Placing the palms Of their hands
together they waved them up and down, then
knelt and bowed three times. almost pros
trating themselves. Each then took cup and
attendants. kneeling az their side, filed them
with wine, which was spilled over the ground
and the sashes of the mOurners, which had been
thrown down near the coffin. Two by two
the Cinnamon now came forward until
nearly every one present had gone through
the ceremony. Then the things were
gathered up. the mourners marched in pro-
cesSiOn around the grave and FASTENED to
their carriages.

THE FARMERS TRUST.
"A Remarkable Plan to Control the
Distribution OfFarm Products.

The State Farmers Convention for the or
ganizatiOn of a farmers trust, at Topeka, Kas.,
was well attended, delegates being present
from nearly all the Central and Western
States. Ex-Governor Butler, of Nebraska,
was Chairman. Colonel Walter n. Allen, of
Kansas, the originator of the movement,
explained at length his plan to form
farmers trust, which shall regulate and con-
troll the shipment and distribution of all
farm products Ten central agencies are to
be established at Chicago, Cincinnati, Kan
sas City, indianapolis, Omaha, st. Louis
Cedar Rapids, st. Paul, Milwaukee and
Louisville to do all the selling for members
of the association. The territory tributary
TO these commercial points is to be divided
into eight principal districts and sub
divided into sub-district associations
by counties. The principal OF each
central agency, together with a gen
eral superintendent of the association, IS
to constitute an Executive Board, with power
to regulate and control shipments of products
on the markets, and to do all other things
that shall in their Judgment appear to be for
the best interest of the association. Agents
will be appointed to organize the farmers,
stock growers, and feeders into district and
sub district organizations, requiring pledges
and obligations to obey the orders of the
Executive Board with respect to sale and
shipment of produce

DRIVEN TO CANNIBALISM.
Starving Indians in the Canadian
Territ cries.

The Rev. Dr. Brick, Church of England
Missionary at Peace River, Northwest Ter
ritories, in a sermon preached at Ottawa,
Canada, made some startling announcements
in reference to the Indians of the Northwest.
He said that hundreds of Indians who are
not under treaty with the Canadian Govern
ment were dying every year from Starva-
ton.
For the past three years game has been
very scarce all through the northwest, and
unless the Government forthwith furnishes
relief the race must soon be eXtermn-
ated. He instances many cases where the
Indians have kept body and soul together for
months on boiled leather and old moccasins,
and others where horse flesh was the staple
food of the red men during the winter
months
Many cases of cannibalism have been re
ported, and he had personal knowledge of
one case where a woman died Of starvation,
and the rest of the camp devo1red her re
mains.
The Government, he said, was not bound
under treaty TO furnish relief to these starry
ing SavageS. but unless something was done
at once the determination OF the race of rel
men would stand out as a blo5 on the good
name of Canada.

THE BLIND MADE TO SEE,
Success of a Wonderful Operation
Upon Woman's Eye

The remarkable operation of transplanting
a portion of the cornea of rabbits eye to
that of a human being, recently performed
in Philadelphia by DIR. L. Webster Fox.
proves so far to be a success. Mrs Annie
Schick, the patient, was examined by DIR. Fox
few days ago and it was found that she
could distinguish objects at a distance of
several feet.
With further banda ging and careful at
tention it Is confidently believed that COM
plete vision will be restored to the eye oper-
ated upon, and when this has been accom-
plished a similar operation will be performed
upon her other eye, which is almost complete
ly obscured by an Opaque surface.
