United States Admiral Benham, in
command of the fleet at Rio Janerio,
does not propose that the flag of his
country shall suffer insult. The insur-
gent Brazilians undertook to prevent
American ships from going to piers at
which they wished to unload, whereupon
he opened fire on the rebel gunboats and
speedily brought them to terms. He has
the New York and others of our best
ships and could without much trouble put
an end to the whole insurgent outfit.
The admiral's action is generally com
mended.

OUR ATTITUDE.
The United states VIII Take Neither Side
in the Corean Difficulty.

in the Corean Difficulty.
WASHINGTON, Aug. Ga strong de-
nial is entered at the state department
of the published story that the United
States has or will enter into a treaty
with European powers to forcibly Oc-
cupy and keep open the treaty ports of
China. 1t is also denied that any over
lures to that end have come to US from
other countries.
When the conditions were srch that
war was only threatened the United
States did use its good offices to avert
the evil. 1t did SO to carry out solemn
obligation imposed upon us by the
treaty with Corea, whereby we bound
ourselves to protect Corea in the fol-
lowing terms: IF other powers deal
unjustly or oppressively with either
government the other will exert their
good offices on being informed of the
case to bring about an amicable ar
rangement, thus showing their friendly
feelings
This obligation was entered into in
1882, and it was under its terms that
the president indicated to Japan that
he would be panied should she infiict
an unjust war upon Corea. That was
as far as the United States could go in
the interest of our good Offices, and be-
sides, the shifting of the war cloud
from Corea to China relieved US from
the necessity of further action.

KANSAS CROPS.
Their Conditions Has Improved Very Much
in the Past Ten Days.

TOPEKA. Kan. Aug. 6.-The Topeka
Capital yesterday published crop re-
port CLEANED from sixty-seven of the
1O5 counties in the state, which shows
the condition to be n great deal better
than was supposed a week or
ten days ago. The report shows
that the wheat is turning out
much better in nearly all parts of
the state than was expected. Many
counties that were expected to pro-
duce practically none have enough for
bread and seed, and those in which a
fair crop was promised have yielded
most bountifully. 1t looks as if the
2S, 900, 600 bushel estimate of the state
board of agriculture will be considera-
bly, exceeded.
The corn crop has been materially
reduced by the dry weather. In the
eastern counties it is practically un-
damaged and will yield abundantly.
West of Topeka few fields have entire
ly escaped damage, and, on the other
hand, few have been entirely ruined.
Nearly every corn county will have
enough grain to feed.

WILD PANIC.
Fire In the Grand Stand at . Sunday Game
of Baseball Causes Stampede at Chi

Fire In the Grand Stand at q Sunday Game
of Baseball Causes Stampede at Chi
cago.
CHICAGO, Aug. 6.-The discovery of
fire in the grand stand at the West
Side ball park yesterday afternoon
caused wild panic among the specta-
tors, in which several met serious in
jury and a large number of others
were slightly cut and bruised in trying
to make their exit. The Chicago and
Cincinnati baseball clubs were battling
with each other and 10000 crowded
into the grounds to witness the game.
Every available seat in the grand stand
and bleachers was occupied and large
crowd of men and boys contented
themselves at not finding seats in tax
ing up their positions on the ball field.
The game had advanced to the seventh
inning with the Chicagos leading the
Red Stockings by seven runs, when q
fire cry was heard from the bleachers,
creeping through the cracks of the
grand stand. The cry of fire was taken
up on all sides and in a very short time
a terrible panic ensued.
The four exits leading from the
grand stand were jammed with anxious
men and boys and also sprinkling of
women. The exits were not large
enough to permit the throng to go
through and hundreds of men sought
places of safety by jumping over the
barbed wire fence and into the ball
ground. The four rows of barbed
wire which encircle the stand proved
very disastrous to the people who at
tempted to make their way through
them to the grounds. A jam of
men and boys crowded to the barbed
wire fences but they were not able to
get through, owing to the closeness of
the wires, the first reaching the fence
scaled it successfully, but those that
followed, in their anxiety to get safe
quarters, tried to crawl through and in
nearly every instance became wedged
between the wires and their clothing
was torn in shreds and hands and legs
were lacerated by the sharp barbs.
The damage amounted to about S4,-
600. The fire was caused by cigar
cite thrown into some shavings. More
than twenty persons who were injured
were taken to adjacent hospitals.

ings of sixty houses. The flames

entire neighborhood, and the tenants
fled in terror, but by hard work, the
fire department finally controlled the
blaze with loss of less than $4,000.

of the most sensational incidents of
the war between China and Japan.
According to the news received here.
the great northern bear intends to grat
one of the most desirable ports of the
Hermit kingdom, and establish sover-
eighty over it. The story to this effect is
pronounced of a most authentic char
acter. and leaves no doubt of it's trust
worthiness in the minds of its recipi-
ents. The reason of Russia's move is
her desire for southern port which
would be open to her commerce
throughout the year. The only port
Russia now has on her Siberian coast
is closed during the rigors of winter.

SHANGHAI. Aug. 5.-Private dispatch
es received here to-day confirm the re-
port that the emperor has divested
Viceroy Ii Hung Chang of the Order of
the Yellow Riding Coat, which is the
wearer privileges second only to those
enjoyed by the royal family. The en-
peror, the dispatches say, has freely
expressed his anger at the vicerOy for
permitting Japan to get ahead of China
in preparing for war. The act of the
emperor in divesting the viceroy of the
Yellow Jacket does not necessarily
imply his deposition from Office, but is
in the nature of an imperial rebuIe of
the most emphatic character.
The viceroy is regarded here as the
only leader capable of coping with Ja-
pan in the existing crisis. He has the
confidence of not only the army, but
of the people, and is a natural leader
of men 1t is said that the emperor
has been influenced in his action by
members of his family hostile to the
viceroy's pro-European policy.
Reports from Tien-Tsin say that
many Chinese soldiers who deserted
have been beheaded by command of
the emperor. The exact number is not
given. The soldiers pleaded in extcn-
uation of their offense hunger and ex-
haustion. Before they were executed
they were stripped of their uniforms,
and their pigtails torn off. The exam
pie made of these unfortunates has
terrified the army.
A dispatch has been received here
which confirms the report that a sec
ond battle has been fought at va Shan
between the Chinese and japanese. 1t
is added that the Chinese were defeated

DISCUSSING ANARCHISTS.

The Question of Deporting Dangerous Per.
sons Debated In the Senate.
During the session of the senate Au-
gust the bill for the deportation of an
archists came up and Mr.. Hill ex.
planned its provisions. Unless some
action was taken by this government
such as was now before the senate this
country, he said. would soon be the
dumping ground for the anarchists of
the :.orld. 1t was not intended to make
the belief in anarchy a crime, and
therefore no attempt had been made to
define anarchy. He favored the pro-
visions of the senate bill for inspection
by treasury agents instead of by con-
suls, and was sure no one could at
tribute his attitude on this section to a
desire to secure more patronage for
the secretary of the treasury. There
was no politics in the bill, and he IA
vored it because he believed it was bet
ter than the house bill.
Mr.. Lodge expressed the belief that
both bills were inadequate for the pur-
pose of restricting immigration, but he
was anxious to see some restriction
placed on immigration no matter how
slight it might be.
Mr.. Palmer pointed out the difficulty
of dealing fairly with the question and
the danger of doing injustice to the
harmless socialists while protecting
ourselves against the danger of anarch-
lists. He asked Mr.. Hill whether the
bill applied to undesirable persons al
ready in the country and Mr.. Hill re-
piled it would. The discussion then
took on legal aspectand hinged upon
the right of country to protect itself
against undesirable aliens. Mr.. Hill
pointed out the moderation of the
pending bill as compared with the act
recently passed by the English parlia-
ment when Mr.. Kyle asked him to
more accurately define the term an
archist, for there were, he said, peace
able and learned people in Boston who
held it were possible for people to be-
come SO highly civilized as to live to-
gether without laws, and, therefore,
according to the usual definition, they
were anarchists.
Mr.. Hill replied they were at liberty
to have this belief, but if they tried to
overturn the laws for the purpose of
putting their belief to the test then
they became dangerous. After some
further debate, and the adoption of
some amendments. the bill was passed.

UNCLE REueeN.s ADVICE.
Suggestions for Young Men Conte
a College Course.

Suggestions for Young Men Contemplating
College Course.
Before entering upon a college course
Uncle Reuben would advise all young
men to carefully observe the following
suggestions:
Spend one season at natatorium, so-
that when yachting, and an accident
occurs, you can save yourself by SWIM
ming.
Have at least one hand-to-hand en-
counter with bear, or convert your
self into sheaf of grain and pass
through thrashing machine in order
to harden yourself for game of foot
ball.
Take one seasons training as prize
fighter-and be prepared for a hazing.
Be sure and have the mumps before
leaving home, and don't forget to be-
vaccinated. 1t may save a great deal
of bother
BE sure to learn to play some position
in baseball nine, and have all your
fingers put out of joint while they are
young and tender.
Steal away with your fathers rank
est pipe and learn to smoke. It's bet
ter to be sick at home with mother to-
comfort you, and then the extras for
doctors bills will not be SO large. Fa-
ther sometimes kicks about those ex--
tras.
1t might be well for you to learn to-
play the guitar, mandolin, violin, bass
viol, flute, cornet-in fact make brass
band out of yourself before entering
college, so that you would have more
time to devote to your studies.
You might take course in some
Newspaper Office, as you may be called
upon to contribute to the college
monthly, and, of course, you could not
spare any time from your studies to-
devote to society news, etc.
This is vast field, and l might men-
tion many other things, but take this
for starter. and perhaps the other
things will suggest themselves to you
