THE CHINESE.
THOSE WHO MAY RETURN AFTER
LEAVING THE COUNTRY.
Twenty-Four Struggled Chinese Ordered
Sent Back to China-They Wish to
Return to Sonora.

WASHINGTON, July 5.-Acting Secre-
tary Batcheller has issued the following
instructions in regard to re-entry into
the United States of Chinese after a
visit to China:
First. Cinnamon who are laborers
are, under the exclusion act of October
l., 1888, absolutely debarred from land
ing in the United States unless it be for
transit across United States territory
under the department regulations of
July, September and December, 1889.
Second. Cinnamon who are not labor
ers and who may have heretofore resided
in the United States are not prevented
by the existing law or treaty from re-
turning to the United States after visit
ing China or elsewhere. No certificates
or other papers, however, are issued
either by the department or any of it's
subordinate officers to show that they are
entitled to land in the United States,
but it is suggested that such persons
should, before leaving the United States,
provide themselves with such proofs of
identity as may be deemed proper show
ing they have been residents of the
United States and that they are not
laborers, so they can present the same
to and be identified by the collector OF
customs at the port where they may
return.
Third. Chinese persons not laborers
who may come to the United States for
the first time, are only Untitled to land
upon compliance with sections of the
act of July 5, 1884, which prescribes that
such persons ''shall obtain permission OF
and be identified as so entitled by the
Chinese government or such other for
eign government of which at the time
such Chinese persons shall be subject,
in such case to be evidenced by certi-
fcate issued by such government. The
certificate shall be in the English
language and shall show such permis-
sion with the name of the benefited
person in his or her proper signature, y

AFFAIRS AT SAMOA.
Consul General Sewa1l Takes Formal
Possession Of Pago PagO.

Consul GeMBral Sewan Takes Formal
Possession of PagO PagO.
APIA, June 18th (per steamer Mari
posa to San Francisco).- The United
States steamer Mohican, with Consul
General Sewall aboard, visited Pago
Pago several weeks ago, and took for
NAL 0ossession of the two pieces of land
there which were ceded to the United
States by the Samoan government.
King Malietoa received his first salute
on May 22d. He visited the United
States steamer Mohican in the new
whale boat recently presented to Chief
Sewmann Tafa by the American govern
ment. The king remained on the man
of-war half an hour, and as he left the
Samoan flag was raised at the mast and
a royal salute of twenty-one guns was
fired in his honor. Malietoa also visited
the German man-of-war Alexandrine a
few days later, and was given similar
salute.
In the latter part of May Captain
Shepard, of the Mohican, and Consul
General Sewall paid visit to King Nal.
iatoa, and on behalf of the United
States government formally presented
him with the wrecks of the Trenton and
Vandalia, which have been lying in
Apia harbor ever since the disastrous
hurricane in March, 1889. Captain
Shepard read letter in which he sug-
gested that the king authorize the
United States consul-general to appoint
a trustee to negotiate for the sale of the
property and to superintend the appli-
cation of the proceeds to the payment OF
the taxes of the natives. Mr.. Sewall
also made an address, in which he re-
viewed the heroic conduct of the Sa-
means during the hurricane, and ex,
pressed the gratitude of the American
people, and their wish for lasting peace
and prosperity to the new government
of Samoa.
Malietoa expressed the deepest graft
tude for the gift. Consul-General
Sewall has appointed ex-Vice-C Consul
Rockwell as trustee to negotiate for the
sale of the wrecks and the disposition OF
the funds.
The strained relations which existed
between the American and German rep
resentatives during the troublesome
times preceding the return of the present
king and the establishment of the new
government are rapidly passing away,
and q more cordial feeling is shown
among the representatives of the two
governments who are now stationed
there,

TO BE SENT BACK.
Twenty-FOur COntraband Chinese Or
dered Returned to China.

Tucson, Ariz., July 5.-United States
Commissioner Hughes today gave judg-
ment in the cases of twenty-four Chinese,
charged with violating the exclusion act,
and ordered that they be returned to the
custody of the United States marshal
of Arizona, to be by him de-
livered to the collector of the port OF
San Francisco, to be returned to China.
The counsel for the Chinese argued that
they be returned tol Sonora, Mexico, hav-
ing landed at Guaymas and entered the
United States from Sonora. The evil
dence shows that they had made one
continuous trip from China, via San
Francisco harbor, Guaymas and Sonora,
into the United States. The counsel
for the Chinese applied for writ OF
habeas corpus before Judge Kibby at
Phnpix, as Judge Sloan, of this district,
is absent from the territory.

authorization for Minister Carter to ne
gotiate the treaty, as it had been drawn
up without consulting him.
On the return of Minister Ashford
from private trip to Canada the latter
demurred to the text of the treaty,
which was 80 amended as to make it a
commercial treaty. At the cabinet
council on April 10, 1890, the king was
advised by the ministry to sign COM
mission authorizing Carter to negotiate
the treaty on such basis; but the king,
acting on Attorney-General Ashford's 8
advice, again declined.

The Macadamization roads in wood
County bids fair to become matter of
fact, and it is likely one or more roads
will be improved ere long. The Goss
road petition has been singed by nearly
all the farmers along the line and the
petitions haye been presented to the
Commissioners. The Oregon petitions
have been signed very freely by the
land owners. OF course all the roads
will not be stoned but the most import
ant, or the ones giving the greatest
amount of benefit to the largest num-
Der will be macadamized. The road
between Toledo and Perrysburg will
be of great benefit to all classes and is
much needed improvement, and would
be the means of raising the price oil
property alone the route. Many of the
wealthy classes of citizens from Toledo
would build residences along the beau
tiful river banks, and would also do
much toward building up our beautiful
village, as the drive to Toledo would
then consume but little time.
Rev. G.. A. Adams, an enthusiastic
gentleman in matters of public i'm
provement, was in Toledo few days
since and thus expressed himself to u
Commercial reporter:
''This road could be economically
constructed. 1t would cost less than
most stone roads. The best of gravel
can be taken from the river and deliv-
cred on docks at different points along
the river bank, so that hauling by team
would be but for short distance at
any point on the road. The material
would not cost but about 81 800 per
mile, and perhaps it may be had for
even less"
Mr.. +. b. Shoemaker, who recently
purchased the valuable property at
Rock bar, speaking of this matter said:
''Perrysburg has as fine a location as
any village in Ohio. Indeed, the
village is handsomely laid out, is beau
tifully situated upon the high river
bank and the surrounding country is
beautiful. Such road would do much
toward building up Perrysburg. Men
who want two, five or ten acres of land
would locate up there and the develop
ment on that side of the river would be
rapid. l do noG say this because l own
land there. 1 do not propose to plat
my land. | have no moro than l want
for myself, but I want to see the whole
strip of country between Toledo and
Perrysburg improved"

Twenty Millions for a Stomach.

EX-Congressman William L. Scott,
of Erie, Pa, and Col. George w.
Hooker, of Vermont, had breakfast
together the other morning at the
Fifth Avenue Hotel. A remarkable
offer was made at this particular meal
that will take rank as the highest
price ever offered for certain useful
apparatus. Col. Hooker related the
story in his breezy style as follows:
1'Mr. Scott ordered few mouthfuls
of oatmeal and two effective pieces of
toast. He had hard work to eat a tea
spoon full or two. l modestly ordered
the following breakfast: Rolls, fried
eggs, porterhouse steak, potatoes la
Saratoga, fried onions, fried ham, buck
wheat cakes, fruit, broiled fish, good
old-fashioned fried chicken cooked la
Virginia, molasses, ale and half a
dozen entrees of lesser Importance.
Mr.. Scott gazed at me in CONSERVATION.
began to eat with my Vermont appe-
tite, which is robust just 1855 days in
the year, and when / began to eat
buckwheat cakes / ordered big cup of
coffee, and supplemented the order
subsequently with three other cups,
which / heartily drank.
''The man with some $4,000, ,00O
stopped eating and watched me. i
talked to him and ate everything
around me. When l ordered my
fourth cup of coffee | saw that Col.
Scott was much purturbed and had
something on his mind. He leaned
forward over the table and said to me
in an earnest voice: Col. Hooker,
am reputed to be worth something
would give quit claim deed to every
cent / possess just to have that stomach
of yours.
''Col. Scott had pathos in his voice,
and was sorry that could not accom-
modate him to first-class stomach like
mine. IN. Y. Mail and Express.

GOOD ROADS.
How ono Township i'm New York
Provides for them.

A correspondent of the Rural New
Yorker, writing from Sweden, Monroe
Co., N. Y, says: Good roads are a
convenience, comfort and a profit to
the public, and indicate the enlighten-
ment and enterprise of community.
In some favored localities good country
roads may be constructed at little
expense; in others the undertaking
entails much labor and outlay. In a
general way, where the soil is so pro-
ductive as to afford the farmer the
largest amount of products to be car
ried to market, the roads are naturally
the poorest and the faculties for MAX
ing them scantiest. Nobody in q
grain-producing section is so directly
interested in good roads in the way of
expense and profit as the farmer; for
good highways lessen the cost of mar
keting at least one-halh. Some years
ago this town resolved to improve it's
roads, which had for long time been
in a bad condition. We first pur-
chased two improved road scrapers at
cost of $3.50 each. These were used
under the direction of the commits
sioner in turnpiking, grading and
smoothing tho road-beds throughout the
town. We then voted tax of 81 200
for the purchase of a stone-crusher. 1t
has been in successful use during the
past three years. II is operated by "a
thrasher's 10-horse engine, and crushes
stones of any kind to about the size of
hens eggs and less, as fast as two men
can throw them in. Money for drawing
and crushing the stones is raised by
tax, and the road district draws them
and builds the road. The stone is used
in nearly the same way as gravel, in u
layer from six to twelve inches thick
On loose ground or where the road-bed
is not firm, a foundation of cobblestones
is laid one foot deep, more or less, as
required. The main thoroughfare
through the center of the town leading
to the village of Brockport. our market
place, is now completed and many of
the crossroads where most needed are
partly so. On these roads during this
open and muddy season teams can draw
a load or carriages can run as easily as
in the dry season of the year. Our
commissioner has built several miles of
road the past season, our farmers being
always willing to draw the materials on
to the road whenever it is ready with
out road tax levied on them. With
much heavy trayel on the roads they
will wear out and need recovering; but
the work will entail less expense and
can be done with the common road tax.
We think the hard, blue limestone
rock makes the most durable road
