READY FOR WAR.
A Committee of Twelve Italians Who Be-

A Committee of Twelve Italians Who Be-
 lievo in Revenge.
 P1TTsBURG, Pa., March 17.-A commit tee of 12 Italians from Chicago passed through Pittsburg en route to Washing ton to see Secretary Blaine, President Harrison and the Italian Minister and to demand of them that steps be taken inl- mediately in the New Orleans killings.
 Pasquale Corite, who was spokesman for the party, was very much in earnest. He said: If the Italians in other cities will follow our example there will be raised in few days $500, ,000 to aid the work of justice or revenge. believe the killings at New Orleans will result in war. but if the Italian government does not force to a complete and satisfactory issue the reparation necessary I will say now that an army of Italians will assem- ble in New Orleans which will fully and effectually avenge the murder of our countrymen."
 "You believe in the Mafia and the ven- detta ?''
 T believe in revenge. Italians are re- vengeful when angered; we are terribly angry"
 ment2"
 'That those concerned in the killing of Italian prisoners be brought to justice, and that full and complete reparation be made to the families of the deceased"
 ''If such demands fail, what?"
 ''We shall demand of the Italian gov ernment that it compel it.''
 "What would that amount to, even if Italy should seek to compel acquiescence to her demands?"
 'Why, sir, Italy has such navy that if she so chose she could station her ves- sels from land and ruin your coast cities. Italy has 1S0 or more vessels of war. You see what she could do."

 Fifty Years Ago.

It was Made by a Staunch quaker OVer
 Fifty Years Ago.
 PROVIDENCE, R. L, March 17.-The will of the late Joseph Greene, a staunch Quaker, made 50 years ago has been set aside by the Supreme Court.
 During MT. Greene's latter years he was disturbed by members of his family mar rying outside the pale of the Society of Friends, or Wilberites. The property in volved comprises about 150 acres of land in Jamestown, R. I.
 Until two years ago no contest of the will was thought of. The contestants claimed that the application of the estate rested upon the trustees determining the actual religious belief of the benefciaries. It is possible, they claimed, to ascertain one's religious professions, but not within the capabilities of human determination to ascertain belief. The will was de- clared void by the court.

The Great Sun Dragon.

It is the belief among both the ignorant
and the educated classes of China that
eclipses of the sun are caused by great
dragon which attempts TO devour the cen
ter of our solar system. An eclipse which
was visible in the Celestial empire occurred
at time when the people were celebrating
the birthday of the emperor Now, it is
the custom to celebrate such an event clad
in the best raiment that can be afforded:
it Is also customary TO wear sackcloth and
go into MOURNING at the time of an eclipse,
at least until the sun has been rescued
from the great dragon which seeks to de
YOUR it. Here. indeed, was a dilemma At
last the emperor was petitioned He be
ing as. superstitious as his people,, ordered
his birthday ignored and commanded the
people to go into mourning until the sun
shall be rescued n-St. Louis Republic.
