AN oLp-TIME INDIAN TERROR.

His Order.

A speaker who has planned an adj
dress for multitude, and finds him
self confronted with but a single
auditor, sometimes fails to readjust
his remarks, and the result is apt to
he ludicrous. A little story illustra-
tive OF this Ioint is told in connec-
tion with former president Of the
University OF North Carolina.
One day, as this dignifled and
stately parsonage was walking about
the campus, he observed an unlaw-
rul assemblagc of students at some
little distance. He did not hasten
his steps, but proceeded slowly to-
ward them with his head down and
mis- eyes apparently bent in contem-
plation Of his own boots.
When this leisurely preceding had
brought him to the spot where the
students had been gathered, only one
young man remained, the others hav-
ing precipitately departed.
The president raised his head and
surveyed the solitary culprit with
apparent severity, although the
Foung man always contended that
he detected twinkle in his keen
eyes.
"Sir," said the president in COM
nanding tone, instantly disperse to
your several places of abode"
Difficult though the feat required
certainly was, the young man exc
;uted to the best of his ability by
dispensing" without further delay.

America IS far greater than for the
continent of Europe. After five or
six years OF neglect there is such a
boom in the wild-beast trade as is
hardly remem bered. Until the ex.
peditions which Hagenbeck and
Others lave dispatched into Central
Africa, via Berhera, and into Borneo
and the West coast of Africa, return,
there is little to fall back upon but
the average supply which arrives
without system and in chance ships.
A single purchase by an agent from
the Philadelphia geological gardens
included leopard, hyeua, pair OF
cheetahs. a Bornean bear, antelopes,

AN INclPIENT REBELLION.
A Royalist Plot Discovered in Hawaii and
Suppressed.

San Francisco. December 22.-The follow.
ing is from the correspondent of the United
Press, per steamer Arawa:
Honolulu. December IA.
A chronic royalist conspiracy has long
been known to the police. 1t has supplied
material for sensational reports from here
containing a modicum of truth. 1t has at
last fairly materiallzed from. the domain OF
rumor into that of tangible fact by reason
of the capture of number of rifles secIeted
in different houses of Royalists and the
arrest of several of the conspirators. The
story OF definite conspiracy to overturn
the republic and restore the monarchy ac-
cordingly has ceased to be matter of de-
rision in the Royalist dailies. Definite
evidence of the conspiracy has accumulated
in the hands Of the marshal. and four per-
sons were arrested on the evening Of Satur-
day. December 8. A number of persons
have been arrested on suspicion, but they
have been released on bail. Rail is refused
to the first four arrested. 1t is understood
that the evidence of their treason is very
strong. The examination of tho conspira-
tors is expected daily and will doubtless be
1t is understood that an imme-
diate uprising was to have boon attempted
but that the marshal thought best to nip
the business in the bud instead of letting it

districts removed from therailroad facilities
are said to be eating prairie dogs. A news
paper man made a trip the early part of the
week through tho most destitute part of
the country. A few deserted sod huts and
farms were seen and there were signs here
and there where habitations were torn down
and removed In some cases farm imple-
meats were seen in the fields at distance.
and substantial graneries stood just as their
owners left them. The people of tho
drought-cursed sections hope to have the
legislature pass measures of relief the first
day the body oonyenes. Organized relief
measures are absolutely necessary to pre-
vent many deaths from starvation.

TRENTON NAPLAcE OF REFUGE.
For the Women Driven from New York's
"Tender1oin."

Trenton, MI, December 2S.-There is
CONSERVATION among the keepers and in
mates of disorderly houses in this city,
owing to the action Of the police in max
ing lists of their places for submission
to the grand jury. Since the beginning
of the Parkhurst crusade in New York,
several hundred tenderloin women came
to Trenton, and their behavior on the
street and in public resorts have given
rise to many indignant complaints. Now
they are fleeing from the houses they
ave been living In, but not the from
he city, and street walking is largely
on the increase. Two "madames"a al
ready have been sent to the state prison.
The list as made by the police will ! also
give the name of the owners of the
property leased for brothel purposes.
Numerous church members are among
these owners.

Bodies.

Burn the Bodies.
Bangor, Me. = December 23.-Cametia
Nashhau and Charles j. Langley of
Brownville were murdered in a camp at
Millinocket Sunday forenoon, it is sup
posed, by two Indians belonging in Old
town. Joseph and Newall Gabriel, both
have bad reputation. The murdered
men are understood to have been hunt
ing, and the supposition is the Indians
were guides, and killed them for pur-
poses of robbery. A cousin of the In
dians is employed at numbering camp
in the vicinity, and went to the camp
today to see them. He was met at the
door by one of them with two revolvers
in the hands, who told him to keep away
if he valued.his life. He was badiy.friRht-
ened, and ran to Millinocket station.
Later several men went to the camp and
found it burning with the bodies of the
victims inside. The Indians were cap
tured by the lum bering crew, and now
held prisoners at the lum Dering camp.

TIME FOR A EUROPEAN WAR CLOUD.
France and Germany are Getting Very
I Hot Over tho Alleged Spy Incident.
Berlin, December 23.-The Spy Mania. in
France, has stirred German feeling to the
boiling point, and the trial Of Dreyfus. the
expulsion of Won Cassel and the sentencing
of Won Schoenbeck. last week, is discussed
with bitterness throughout the empire. The
of the French ministers that
Dreyfus had no relations with the German
embassy. is regarded As unsatisfactory in
ths face of repeated assertions Of the
French press, that the sole document on
which he was convicted was stolen from the
embassy. Paris journals insinuate that
Count Muenster tried to induce the French
to drop prosecution, although
this is a palpabIe falsehood as the very
charges against Won Cassel rested solely
upon his associations with Won Schoen beck
and the case against Won Schoenec rested
solely upon the map with lines re-
sembling the plan of the French fort works.
Corious dispatches from Paris on the three
cases are read here with such avidiry as
was not evident for years. A.few trust
worthy accounts Of events on Paris show
fully, the French suspicion and hatred of
Germany again at the food.

night of the 18th with his whole force, and

the village of kung Wasai, where they made
a obstinate stand. Although in poor con-

Japanese. In the midst of the battle
