to south. II is situated between Asia
and Australia, and consists of a number
of large and small islands located almost
on the equator. Three Of these islands
are larger than Great Britain, and one of
them Borneo-is larger than the whole
of the British Isles put together. This
region enjoys climate more uniform
and hotter than any other part of the
globe, and all kinds Of tropical fruits and
flowers are found in il. IL also teens
with animal life, including the man. eat
ing tiger, elephant, ourang-outang. etc.
II is inhabited by an interesting race OF
mankind, the Malay. This peculiar and
at one time warlikc race Is found nowhere
else except in these regions. Hence the
name Malay Archipelago.
Few places are of greater interest
to the traveller than Singapore, the capi-
tai of the Straits Settlements and the chief
port of Decentralization for all ports Of the
Malay peninsula and islands of the Archi-
pelago. Here is found variety of
Eastern races and as many different
modes of life as IN any town OF its size
in the world. NIalays, Javanese, Tamils
"A race of natives from the south of
India-Arabs, Parsees, Portuguese, Bur

are to be seen daily in the streets.
The Government is English, rs we'll as
the merchant community, but the greater
portion of the population consists OF
Malays, Tamils and Chinese. Chinese
are to be seen everywhere, from the rich
merchant down to the poorer laborers,
miners and agriculturists. The wealthy
Chinese merchant is to be seen every
evening driving along the bund in his
carriage, looking sleek, fat and dirty.
He lolls back in the cushions, enjoying
the seabreezes, with his long tail tipped
with red silk and reaching nearly down
to his heels. His coachman is attircd in
the most gorgeous livery. Altogether
he has very grand turnout, and loves
to show himself off.

JOHN O,DAYs TROUBLE.

SPRINFIELD, Mo-, April S.-The reports
teiegraphed from here purporting to be
accounts of an alteration between Hon.
John o; Day and Captain W. 5. johnson
on account or the city election last Tues
day were sensational and were inspired by
malice that conveniently distorted the
facts, which were, briefly, as follows:
Colonel D'Day and Captain johnson
were at the Fourth ward polls late in the
afternoon, the latter somewhat the worse
for drink. A little pleasantly passed be-
tween the two, when, without prOvoca
tion and entirely Unexpectedly, johnson
struck O'Day terrific blow in the face,
cutting his eye and staggering him.
D'Day recovered instantly, and, knocking
johnson down, was proceeding to pun
mel him, when an officer interfered.
These facts are coroborated by W. Z.
Stewart, William Gottfried and other
prominent business men, who were pres
ent. The sequel of yesterday, the facrs
with regard to which were likewise dis
torted as telegraphed, was as follows:
Colonel O'Day met Captain johnson on
College street about i clock. and instantly
demanded that ne (Johnson) apologize TO
him (O'Day) for the previous assault.
Johnson refused to go so and struck at and
kicked O'Day. who warded OF the blow.
Almost instantaneously William johnson,
a grown son of Captain johnson, made a
savage rush for ODay, VINO Threw ms plS-
tol down on him, and would probably
have shot him bnt for the timely interfer-
ence of Hon. L. Ii. Murray and Others. At
the present writing the unfortunate mis-
understanding is at an end, through the
interposition of mutual friends.
William johnson, Jr,, states that the
trouble was iustigated by D. j. Kennedy
and two or three others, who would like
TO see Colonel O'Day assassinated, pro-
vided they could shift the responsibility
for such tragedy to the shoulders of some
one else. Though there bad never been
any trouble between O'Day and johnson,
they, knowing that the latter was a daring
and courageous man, in cowardly way,
endeavored to use him rs means to the
end they have so long desired
As there is motive in all things, so
that which inspired Kennedy to his pnsil-
luminous course in the matter is. first.
that he was once convicted by John ODay
OF perjury in the circuit court of Greene
county in the case OF the ST. Louis Type
foundry against ID. {. Kennedy, and, sec
oud, that O'Day inaugurated Il newspaper
enterprise here which has rendered prac-
tically vdlueless the newspaper property
conducted By Kennedy. His course IN
this, his last resort at revenge, for humili-
tation ana business defeat is bitterly con-
demned by the entire community,

of the Red sea littoral, which had been

the document should not Introduce any
question concerning the frontier, and re-
ceivcd the assurance that the firman should
not touch the khedive's rights. When the
sultan's envoy, Ayoub Pasha, arrived at
Cairo, the British minister, suspecting
duplicity, asked for copy of the docu-
! cument, and, when Ayoub Pasha refused
| to communicate the contents OF the hrman
until after the investiture, the minister
| advised the kbedive not to proceed with
| the ceremony. Ayoub Pasha then dsclos-
ed the substance of the flrman, the nature
| of which had been known to and approved
| by France and Russia before the miSsive

THE BLAIR INCIDENT.

WASHINGTON, April s.-The senate made
public today the correspondence trans
mitted by the president touching the de-
clination of the Chinese government TO re-
ceive ex-senator Blair as United States
minister. The correspondence shows that
the Chinese minister wrote that Mr.. Blair
had bitterly abused China and Chinese
laborers, and was conspicuous in helping
to pass the exclusion act. For these rea-
sons China deemed it inexpedient TO re
ceive Mr.. Blair. Mr.. Blair, III a long letter
to Acting Secretary Wharton, defended his
course, and also rendered his resignation.
The correspondence was finally closed with
letter from Mr.. Wharton to the Chinese
minister, stating that Mr.. Blair had been
injuriously misrepresented and that au
objection to him because he voted for the
exclusion act was not well founded. Mr..
Wharton admits, however, that the incl
dent is closed by the acceptance by the
president of Mr. Blair's resignation.
