ST. PETERSBURG, Jan. 2f-rhe grand

ond son and fourth child of the late
Emperor Nicholas uf Russia, md uncle of
the present czar, is dead.
The late Grand Duke Constantine, who

was born Sept. ~, or, according 10 old
styl' which Is still in use in Russia, on
Sept. q, 1921, lie was educated for the
naval service and subsequently obtained
the rank of pest captain in the Russian
navy. In his capacity of admiral, the Grand
Duke Constantine once arrested his own
brother, the late Emperor ot Russia, who
was on board his ship at tie time For
this the grand duke himself was placed
under arrest. In addition 20 being grand
admiral OF Russia the Grand Duke Con-

AMUSEM EN- rs.

"Yon Yonson" at the Gaisty, and "Two
Wanderers" at Lothrop's.
Gus Heege in "Yon Yopson" is at the
Gaiety Opera House in Providence. This
is enough for people who like pure, clean
amusement to know. There was an enor-
nous rush for seats last night, and the
comedy was immensely pleasing. Miss
Annie Lewis is great drawing card, and
the Lumbermen's Quartette Is q taking
feature. In fact the entire company Is far
above the average.
"The Two Wanderers"
At Lothrop's Providence Museum this
week tho play, "The Two Wanderers"
bids fair to bring large patronage. The
opening night was highly successful.
Miss Ethel Tucker, as Rosalie Vernon, the
victim OF a rascally guardians attempt
to enrich him elf by murder and robbery,
impersonates the juvenile character with
her customary skill, and Charles Bar
ringers Clarence Bloomfield was also q
painstaking and popular effort. The
other parts nre excellently taken.

CHILD LABOR REPORT.
VII at Commissioner
Goodwin Says.
SOME INTERESTING FACTS.
The Number of Children Employed in
the Mills is Decreasing.

Almon X. Goodwin, Commissioner of
Industrial Statistics, has completed his
report on Child Labor in Rhode Island.
II contains many interesting facts. Only
portion OF the report can be given here.
The report says
ave find then in Rhode Island, children
who are obliged TO work to support
honest but poor parents, children who are
Obliged to work to support indolent par
eats, and children who are Obliged to
work to add their mite TO the fund OF
greedy parents. In every condition OF
the parent, the child is the sufferer 1t Is
the child who is being cruelty treated and
sadly neglected, physically, morally, and
mentally.
"The State then should come to their
rescue, by enacting proper laws and pro-
viding for their rigid enforcement.
at is gratifying to note that the en-
ployment OF chidren in Rhode Island is
not so extensive as in years past, and that
the agitation of the question OF child
labor, and legislative enactments are pro-
ducing good results.
=" he population OF 1890 is 129, ,155 more
than IN 1870 while the number OF children
employed is 26l less. The present total
population is 6S,975 more than in 1880,
while the number Of children employed Is
1875 less.
"In Providence County with n total
population of 235, ,125 there are employed
1912 children.
"Kent County with total population
OF 26,754 employs 95l children.
"Bristol County with a total population
OF IL ,423 employs 235 children.
washington County with a population
23,6i5 employs l60 children.
Newport County with a total popula-
tion of 2s,552 employs but 80 children.
"The city of Providence employs 1,452.
Woonsocket employs 1915, Pawtucket 571,
and Newport but 81.
"In the towns, Warwick leads with Geo,
Lincoln next with 63S.
"For the year 1890 we find the total
school population OF the State between
the ages of 10 and IA inclusive, to be 20, ,16S.
Total number attending school over -
weeks, 2i,l16. Total number attending
school just u weeks, 1,l79. Total number
attending school less tnan l2 weeks, 484.
Total number of absentees, 1909.
"Thore has ! cen gradual and marked
decrease, in the number of absentees, and
yet the number is now altogether too
great. The safety of the country and its
prosperity in the future, depend upon the
education and intelligence of its citizens.
1t il certainly then, the duty of the State
to see that its children are properly edu-
Gated, il we would maintain our character
and pcrpetuate our free in8titutions."
In conclusion, the Commissioner pays a
tribute to the work of his chief c.erk,
John III. Davis.

GREAT COOKING MAIN.
A Resident Of this CITY Backs the Boston
Birds and Wins.

A Resident OF this CITY Backs the Boston
Birds and Wins.
\ large number of sporting men from
this city and Providence attended the
greatest cooking main on record Sunday
morning. 1t took place on Staten Island,
and was witnessed by hundreds. One
man from this city returned home yester-
day with his Golfers well filed with green
backs, having backed the Boston birds
after the first battle.
The Boston fowls, which were owned by
#. Il. Hartley, were handled by John
WhGlen of BrOckton, Mass. The Proyi
dence cocks, which were the property OF
Samuel Scanlon, were handled by j. T..
Wingate of Pennington, n. H., we'll
known breeder of game birds.
According to the articles of agreement,
they were each TO deposit $1,000 in the
hands ofthe Shareholders on the main and
$50 a battle, making $1,000 for him to hold
on the general result and 300 a battle.
The main was to consist OF IL battles.
Ono OF the most prominent sporting
men OF Boston, Capt. Cook of the Police
News, was referee. The bulk Of the spec
tators were Boston and Providence men
with n sprinkling from other Eastern
cities.
Boston won six straight battles and cap
tured the main without losing a single
fight.
The Boston people offered to fight the
remaining battles at $50 per battle, but the
Providence crowd declined to do any un-
necessary fighting.

The Times says: The weak point in Mr..
Harrison's argument Is the absence OF any
evidence that the attack upon the Ameri.

sudden outbreak OF mob fury. The request
Of Chill for the recall OF Minister Egan
had something TO do with hardening the
presidential attitude. In the meantime
tnings look decidedly awkward. although
comfort may be sought In the knowledge
that the exigencies of electioneering are
many and mysterious.

CONCERNING AN APOLOGY.
An Opinion which Proves to Have Been
Decidedly Out Of Joint.

An Opinion which Proves to Have Been
Decidedly Out Of Joint.
wAsHINGToN, Jan. 26.-Those here who
are best Informed as to the disposition Of
the Chilian government and people ex-
press grave doubts as to the outcome of
the issue now sharply drawn. One gen.
tleman. who is peculiarly well qualified to
speak upon the subject, said last evening
that he believed the condition Of affairs in
Chilli TO be such that IL would bo impossi-
ble fos the government to apologize, even
II President Montt and his cabinet was
dis?oa"d 10 take this course, which he
doubted. lie believed the sentiment as
erib~G to one Of the chief supporters Of
the government that the withdrawal Of the
Matte circular now would be considered n
"supine act" cf submission, accurately de
scribea the feelings which controlled the
dominant party in Chill.
He c0nccded that If an apology satisfac-
To the United States were made, the ques-
tion Of reparation could easily be adjusted,
either by the preferred mediation OF the
representatives of Chilli. or ia some other
way satisfactory both 10 Chill and tho
United States. But he regarded the main
difficulty to be the securing Of an apology
ample enough To cover the indignity
which the United States believed had
been cast upon the national honor. Presi-
dent Months withdrawal to the baths in
mouL ;ains above Santiago, at the very
moment when he could not fail to know
that some urgent communication from the
United States government requiring q
prompt and definite answer might be ex-
pected, is construed as most unfavorabls
symptom
Even In Chill, where everything that
might be done today Is habitually post
poned until the morrow, such \ course a.
that taken by the Chilian president, In
the face Of so grave an emergency, is looked
upon rs an international aggravation Of
the original offense, and as holding out
little hope that the Malta letter will be
disavowed with the promptitudc and cor
diality which alone could give value to the
act.
At the Chiliaa legation here, all was a.
lence last night. Senor Dom Pedro Montt
stated courteously that he had no infor
nation which he could give out to the
press, and he intimated that he had re-
ceived no recent communications from his
government II is therefore assumed that
the policy of the Chilian authorities will
be 10 interpose for so long as possible n
