WHY HE KILLED THEM
The Chief of the Manipuris Gives
HIS Reasons.

r 4Atn AhEdSoHA.
CALCUTTA, April 10.-The text of the
letDS which was received at Simla from
the leader of the Manipuris, who re-
Gently massacred Chief Commissioner
Quinton and his party, has been pub
lished there. In 1t the Manipuri chief
says:
''The British attacked my palace,
massacred my soldiers and their women
and children; they threw living women
and children into the flames of their
burning houses and desecrated the
temples. Therefore, killed the chief
commissioners party, which was COM
posed OF Commissioner Quinton, Col.
Skene, Lieut.. Simpson and the civilians,
Cassius, Grimwood and Melville"
Lieut.. Grant and Capt. Presgrave, who
it was feared had been killed, are now
reported AS being alive and safe.
CALCUTTA, April 10.-A second letter
from the British expedition against
Manipur says that the surviving Brit
ish subjects, except the clerk and inter-
prefer, had been liberated by the Mani
purs before the British demand arrived
for their liberation. The viceroy in
forwarding the letters says he fears it
was true that the officers were killed,
but it is evident that the story of the
circumstances leading to their slaughter
was eoncocted to shield the regiment OF
Manipur. He adds: IL deeply regret
the Siinla slaughter, which was wholly
due to raShness and indlscretion."

test, When Ordered.
NEW York, April 10-Col. Weber,
superintendent of immigration, learned
that both the Italian steamships, the
Burgundia and the Initiative, had
called away from the port, coolly ignor-
ing section 10 of the new immigration
law. Wednesday afternoon twenty
four immigrants debarred under the
law by the barge office inspectors, were
placed ON board the Burgundia for ship
inent back to Italy.
1--WE have received word that twenty
one of them were allowed to escape
from the Burgundia after we had
placed them aboard" said Col. Weber.
'The steamship officers undoubtedly
advised the immigrants to stay aboard,
but at the time am sure they also
winked their official eyes ut them and
complacently allowed them TO leave the
ship. am awaiting instructions from
the proper departmental authorities,
when | am determined to push these
cases against Phelps Bros. & Co., the
steamship agents. The violations of
this law in these twenty-one cases car
ries a penalty Of $500 in each instance"
A hearing on writ of habeas cor
pus was had before Judge Lacombe in
the United States court in behalf of
Dominica Mariana, an immigrant de-
tained on the init iative. This action
was brought about by the Italian So
rtafu Ind kafa atn
was that Mariana was of that class de-
barred from landing under the new
law. He reinanded the petitioner back
to the custody of the steamship people.

Yesterday broke all records with re-
gard to the number of immigrants
landed at this port. OF the very large
number landed the proportion Of Ital-
inns is nearly four to one. The trans
port ship Cacheinre brought / ,290 Ital-
ians. That is the number ou her mani
fest, but credible authority declares
chat the actual number will probably
go well beyond |, 800. Since the pas
sage of the new immigration law the
Italians have caused the most trouble.
They come ih-herds and are uncleanly
beyond description, feeble in large
proportion of cases, and immoral in a
great majority.

The ship Cachemire, that landed her
passengers yesterday, is sister ship of
the French transport that landed / 800
Italians last month. A comparison be-
tween these big transport Immigrant
ships and the average cattle ship would
: probably result i'll favor of the cattle
ship Before the new law was in force
1t was no uncommon thing for immi-
grants to arrive here in a condition that

went into operation the only difference
results from the condition forced on the
Italian by the steamship company. Now
the shipping people force the unclean
Immigrant to take bath just before
they reach port. -

Thackeray composed and wrote his
novels on long note paper in the most
feminine handwriting. The manuscript
he frequently took down to his pub
Usher in the crown of his hat, stopping
en- route at the Garrick Club to take
lunch or the anteprandial cocktail. His
habit of composition was methodical
When writing philip on His Way
Through the World. " he told, with serio-
comic earnestness, of the necessity he
was under of spinning out more chap
tiers because it was necessary to put an
other story on his house at Kensington
Garden, and Philip must do the job. On
that occasion he said: do you know
that both Dickens and myself are impos-
ing on the public, for we have worked
out our own views very much, and dig
out more dross than ore" Thackeray
was too sensitive to make good
lecturer or take pleasure in appearing
personally before the public as Dickens
did. He used to say: Hang this
lecturing; it is the most unsatisfactory
thing to me you can imagine. If any
audience does not applaud me l feel
mortified, because have failed to in
terest them. If they applaud me, | feel

HEALTHY POULTRY.
There Is Nothing Fowls Enjoy More Than
BRIGHT Sunshine.


Above every other point, our efforts
should be to have our poultry healthy
and to keep them so, but to do this re-
quires a great deal of foresight and
care on the part of the owner. There
is nothing that more enjoys the warm
sun than the poultry, and its effects
upon them is very beneficial. While on
the other hand, If they are exposed to
the hot sun and have no place to re-
treat to, to get out of it into the shade,
disease and loss are sure to follow; not
temporary disease or loss, but perma-
nent loss. Just so long as you keep a
lot of poultry that has once been so ex.
posed you are laboring under Difficult
ties from the fact that such will never
give as good satisfaction and are much
more liable to be attacked by dis ase
than poultry that have been properly
cared for. The same rule will hold good
with poultry that have once been stunt
ed by improper or insufficient feed
ing; they will never come up to the
high water mark. No matter what
treatment they receive, they have been
injured, and will never fully recover
therefrom, so that if we wish to have
good, healthy, strong and paying poul-
try, we should concentrate our every
effort in keeping them from being in
iured or broken down before their time
Of usefulness arrives.
If fruit tree gets injured the loss to
the tree is not much, but when we go to
gather in the fruit is the time that tells
the story.
First of all, good, sound, healthy
stock, then with proper care and fore
sight, when egg harvest time arrives we
will not be disappointed, but we may
expect to be rewarded for our care and
trouble. The successful poultryman
must appoint himself general in com
mand, and look all around, or the enc
