BRITISH IMPUDENCE
Discussing ChiIe's Insult to the
United States.
what the sEThumderer,, saws ON
the Subiect--TaIl Talk From
Big Newspaper.

LONDON, Oct. 27.-The Times this morn.
ing says Minister Egan's request for an ex-
planation from the Chilean government is
natural and proper, but the expression OF
indignatian is little premature. The ac-
count from an American point of view
leaves it extremely doubtful whether the
paid servants of the Chilean government
are guilty. Until America is able to prove
this, she has no right to prefer demands in
a clustering and threatening manner.
Riots are not unknown altogether under
the benignant sway Of the Washington
government. Chile might Justly recall the
TACT that Minister Egan openly enrolled
himself among the partisans of the de-
teated president, adding appreciably to the
difficulty of reaching a settlement. She
might also remind America of the New
Orleans affair, for which Italy got little sat-
!istact1on. The Times concludes bydoubt-
ing whether, apart from the Irish, any
large section Of Americans approve Of
bluster toward country not too kindly
treated in its trouble, and too weak for a
sfelf-respecting adversary to strike without
the greatest reluctance.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 27.-The cabinet meet
ing today was attended by all the men,
bers except Secretary Foster. 1t is sup
posed the session was mainly devoted to
the discussion of the Chilean situation and
the reparation demanded of Chile by Min
lister Egan.

SHANGHAI, Oct. 81. - The anti-foreign
movement continues in Human province
and among the rebel chiefs are many Of the
viceroy's magistrates and generals. The
government seems to be unable to prevent
the spread Of the uprising and its propa-
ganda against foreigners. The following is
the substance Of an important document
which has been displayed on the walls ev-
erywhere Inhabitants who are anxious
of preventing violation of our country,
let us prepare plan of defense, so that ev-
cry district may take up arms and assem-
ole its forces. Every great district should
furnish 10000 men, every lesser district
1900 and every small district 10000, Let
us chase from our provinces the devil
mouthed European pigs. Having power,
money and men and being brave, let us
destroy the enemy. 1t will be much better
to burn their dwellings, churches and mis-
sion buildings than to confscate them for
the purpose increasing our revenue. We
will extinguish fires dangerous TO Chinese
dwellings. Let us stamp on the cattle OF
Jesus, the heavenly pigs. Let us punish
the converted Chinese, the traitors, and let
us Danish the families Of the guilty on the

A NOBLE CAREER.
Judge Hewitt Passes Away at the
Age Of 81.
His Place in the History of wash
ingtOm- appointed Chief Ius-

tice by Lincoln.
Judge G. @. Hewitt, one Of Olympia's
earliest pioneers, chief justice of the terri
tory and the father Of Odd Fellowship in
Washington, closed his eyes in death last
evening at 7:30 at his home iii East Tunl-
water, and ended an exemplary career of
eighty-tWo years as citizen and man.
He was one Of the early pioneers who hold
marked places in the history Of Washing
| ton, ,one ofthose who crossed the plains seek
ing newer fields and newer hopes. He was
man of sterling integrity and honesty and
was in this peer to any in the state. He
acted always in accordance with his CON
yictions, regardless Of the opinions Of any
party Or Individual, and his many good
traits Of character were prominent.
Judge Hewitt was born in Oppingham,
Montgomery county, N. Y, in 1909. He
afterwards moved to Dundee, H. In 1852
he crossed the plains and settled at Mil
waukee, Or. In 1852 he came to Olympia
and later removed to Seattleand Port Mad
lsOn. He was q carpenter by trade, and be-
cause of superior ability in making OK
yokes, which were conceded to be the best
on Puget Sound, received the title of COX
Yoke' Hewitt.

GREAT GUNS.
Something About Their Manufacture and
Cost.

Something About Their Manufacture and
Cost.
The forging of the immense guns is a
most interesting process. The rified
guns of the present are made by re-
enforcing the tube with rings and re-
peated layers of steel called Jackets,
which are fitted one over the other over
the original tube or barrel of tho gun.
The jackets or hoops must fit as closely
to the guns as if forming an integral
part of its composition. The only way
to get them on is, of course, by heating
and thus charging them. When they
cool, they fit snugly. 1t is evident that
the exact size of the jacket and ring
when heated so that it can be put in its
place must be matter of tho incest
mathematical calculation. The coarse
powder now used makes such havoc
with the riding of the largest guns that
one hundred charges are about all that
can be expected from them. The jack
cts and rings can then be removed and
fitted to another tube.
The various parts of a gun nv not put
together at Bethlehem, but2are sent to
Washington, to Department. of
the arsenal called the assembling
room, where the tube is rifled
and the gun is finally completed.
A steel gun of the largest cal
ibre costs about 100000. The ordnance
Of our modern navy is therefore one of
the most costly items for which congress
is expected to display patriotic gem

Why the Farm Is One OF the Best OF Ed
ucationa1 Influences.
If by education is meant the forma-
ton Of character and Of the habits of
life essential to success In any business
or profession, then the farm is one Of
the best Of educational influences.
No man can expect to succeed in an
honest calling unless he acquires some
time in early life, habits Of industry,
frugality, economy, forethought and
the power to resist the temptations
that lead to fast living and dissipation.
These habits, if formed at all. must be
formed before the character becomes
fixed and established. 1t is Just
here that the education of the farm
has its greatest value. 1t in manner
compels formation of these habits.
The farm furnishes work to all ages,
from the child to the full-grown man
or woman. Success is possible only by
the combined labor Of all members Of
the family. There is little temptation
to extravaganza in dress or modes OF
living. There is no wide distinction in
classes, and the farmers boy instinct
lively learns to judge men by what
they are in character rather than by
social position or by size Of the bank
account.
These, among other reasons and adj
vantages, account for the fact that the
farm boy in the race of life, as rule,
far outstrips his competitors Of the city.
The farm boy may be found in all the
professions, in the line of business, and
in great manufacturing enterprises, at
the head of the procession. He wins
position, not by superior knowledge Of
books. or what is ordinarily called edu-
cation, but by the formation, under the
influence of home, of those habits Of
which, after all, success in life mainly
depends. This educational influence is
an item of profit sadly left out of the
calculations in these times Of dapres-
sion on the farm. No farm depression
can take away its educational influence,
except in so far as the farmer loses
faith in his profession and imbues his
children with his own scepticism. The
essential point is to have right habits
rooted and grounded in the young,
whether the immediate rewards be
great or small. Get the boys firmly
fixed IN these essential habits, and
then, if they have taste for some
other profession, You can trust them.

SOLOMON ISLANDERS.
Barbarians who Are skilled in the Art
Wood Carving.

Barbarians who Are Skilled in the Art OF
Wood Carving.
| Hugo Zoller has Published in the Nit
theilungen, of Gotha. an article on the
little known islands, Bouka and Boug-
ainville, the most northern Of the Solo
mon group. east of New Guinea, which
/ he visited two years ago. The inhab-
itants of these islands are so remark
ably hostile that to Ehis day all the
islands of the solomon group are little
known.
| The natives have kept almost wholly
free from European Influences. They
live in the stone age, though very few
of them have firearms. They wear lit
tie or no clothing, are of the Melanesian
race, and while darker in color than the
natives Of New Gninea, their habits re-
call the Polynesians Their bows are
ten feet long, and they also use lances
and clubs.
| They have quite number of indus
tries and build canoes which Mr. Zoller
says could not be excelled by white
artisans. Their carvings upon wood
are ingenious, and they weave nets and
make pottery without the aid of tho
wheel Cannibalism, which is always
observed in these regions to a greater or
lesser. extent, is becoming rare among
them, if the natives are to be believed.
Many writers have affirmed that these
islanders throw their dead into the
water or cremate them, but Mr., Zoller
says he repeatedly saw cemeteries in
Bougainville decorated with rude stone
monuments. This custom cannot be
attributed to the influence of Christian
ity, for missionaries have never yet
ventnred among these dangerous peo-
pie, and the natives have met only a
few European merchants, most of whom
they have slaughtered. Boulxa is only
about thirty miles long and ten miles
wide, but it has population of about
| fifteen thousand, and the little islands
which are near it are densely peopled. =
