WOMAN, LOVELY WOMAN.

A powerful wing of imagination,
strong as the f1appers of the great roc
of Arabian story, is needed to lift the
known physical woman even a very lit
tie way into azure heavens. 1t is far
easier to take a snap shot at the psy-
chic. and tumble her down her ficti-
tious heights to earth. The mixing of
the two makes nonsense of her She
was created to attract the man, for
an excellent purpose in the main. We
behold her at work necessarily. One
is fish to her hook; another a moth
to her light. By the various arts at
her disposal she will have us, unless
early in life we tear away the crea-
lures colored gauzes and penetrate to
her absurdly simple mechanism. That
done. we may, if we please, dominate
her. High priests of every religion
have successfully denounced her as
the chief enemy. To subdue and bid
her minister to our satisfaction is,
therefore. right employment of mans
unperceived superior strength. OF
course. we keep to ourselves the wo-
man we prefer; but we have to beware
OF an uxorious preference, or we are
likely to resemble the Irishman with
his wolf. and dance imprisoned in the
hug of our captive. For it is the crea-
lures characteristic to be Iastingly
awake, in her moments of utmost slav-
1shness most keenly awake to the
chances of the sharing of the strong
er. Be on guard, then.

IOWA REPUBLICANS.

Des Moines. Iowa, July 22.-Delegates
to the Republican convention on We'd
nesday, the 9th, are already coming
in. Nearly all the candidates and prom
inent workers are represented in the
lobbies. The convention will nominate
candidates for state officers, as follows:
Secretary, auditor, attorney general,
railroad commissioners, two judges of
the supreme courts and clerk and re-
porter of the supreme court.
Secretary Mcfarland, Auditor Nc
Carthy, and Judge Granger, will be re-
nominated without opposition; also
Judge Delmer appointed by Governor
Boies to fill vacancy.
For the Offices there are long lists of
candidates, and matters are hardly
definite enough to warrant forecasts.
The temporary chairman will be John
Baldwin, OF Council Bluffs, and Sena-
tor Harsh, of Creston, has been recon-
mended by the state committee for
permanent chairman.
The platform outlook is strong on
national issues, with very little refer
ence to state questions, with silence on
the liquor question, which the party
claimed was referred to the people by
the Martin Mulcet law of the last leg
islature. The promise is for one of the
largest conventions ever held

COUNT LEO FOE sroI.

From the Washington Start.
A Russian paper states that the ar
fist Tarochenko. who was recently in
Moscow. has painted most excellent
portrait of Count Leo Tolstoi, and that
the distinguished author is well and
strong and more than ever devoted to
strictly vegetarian diet.
Not only does he not use any wine,
tobacco or. meat. but he even abstains
from such food as eggs, milk, butter
and pastry. His diet consists of bread,
mushrooms. vegetables, fruit, Cruel,
which he eats with the addition of
some vegetable butter or oil, and in
stead of tea he uses hot water, with
a few rasins or prunes in it.
This abStemiouSneSS does not seem
to impair his strength, but apparent
ly has helped him to overcome some
ailments which had lately threatened
his health.
Count Tolstoi reads a great deal,
keeps up with everything that is pub
lished in Russia and abroad on the vi
tai questions in which he Is interest

own work without interruption, find
ing time even for themes of secondary
Importance in his eyes, as, for in

took up this subject in consequence OF
some widely divergent views recently
expressed about modern art produc-
tons. He wishes to define more
clearly the idea of what constitutes a

Orders were recently issued for H.

The preparations were hurridly COM

went on board the transports that will

To guard against contingencies the

New York, July 22.-Now that the
bitter railroad strike is over the lead
ers of the local labor organizations are
taking up the matter of securing the
proper defense for Eugene V. Debs,
president of the American Railway
union.
This activity is in accordance with
an appeal issued by President Com
lpers, of the American Federation of
Labor. which will be published in the
August number of the American Fed
Grant. the official organ of the fedora
ton. 1t reads as follows:
Eugene v. Debs stands as one of
the most conspicuous and interesting
his honesty and devotion to the cause
of the wronged against the wrong-do-
ers. Yesterday he was in jail waiting
the action of the United States courts
upon the charge of contempt of its
injunction. He was requested to ap-
pear before four different courts, To-
Gated hundreds of miles from each
other. each at the same time. He is
under Indictment for conspiracy for
obeying the instructions of his organ
ization and requesting railroad men to
quit work to aid their struggling fell
low workmen. The corporations have
their claws ready to fasten upon the
body of Debs, not simply to try and
crush him. but they hope to force the
men of labor into silence and slavish
submission.
THAT purpose cannot, dare not and
will not succeed. Debs must be de-
Tended. and ably defended. In, his per-
son at this time he represents the
rights of labor. Eugene V. Debs is a
poor man; he has no money; his trial
and preparation for it will require a
considerable amount, and we know
| that the workers of the country have
never yet been applied to in vain to
help the cause of justice, humanity
and right. All unions should contri-
butte We ask all laboring men to open
subscriptions for the Debs legal de-
tense fund.

subscription of $500.

How n British Capitalist Was Caught
in u Bears Nest.

san Francisco, July PA. G. Rem
saw, British capitalist, has COM
menced suit in the United States dis
trict court to recover S245, 0O0
He charges that the sale of the
Bears Nest group of mines in Alaska
was accomplished by gigantic frauds.
He accuses James Treadwell, John
Treadwell, Captain James Carroll, M.
w hurry, n. A. Fuller and George ].
Smith with conspiracy to make the
sale by placing gold-bearing rock from
the rich Treadwell mine in the barren
anime adjoining, and treating the core
from a diamond drill with chloride of
gold to make a showing of rich ore.
He asserts he has a confession of
the entire fraud.
He declares that three British eX-
perts were deceived in the sailed mine,
each one reporting it would yield a
profit of 81 200, 900 a year.
The enormous amount of money in
Volved, the prominence Of the parties
to the suit. and the charges OF fraud
make these disclosures the sensation
of the day in mining circles.
The mine was sold to British invest
,ors for $2,500,000 in stock and 81, SOC, 00C
in bonds drawing Z per cent interest
This was, in 1887, and no gold has ever
been taken from it. The projectors OF
the sale have so far received about
5000, 900 in money.

London, July 22.-The London re-
porter of the Associated Press visited
the Japanese legation here to learn,
if possible, whether the report was
true that war had been declared be-
tween China and Japan in regard to
Corea.
No official denial or confirmation of
the report could be had, but the whole
staff Of the legation made no attempt
to disguise their delight at the
thought of war with China.
AT the Chinese legation it was sta
ted that no news of a declaration of
war had been received. 1t was added
if the rumor was true the first report
would come from Japan and not from
China.
Another visit was made to the Chin
csc legation tonight. The officials sta
ted that no late news had been re-
ceiVed owing to an interruption of the
cable service. The latest information
received at the legation was to the ef-
feet that 10000 Chinese troops would
start for Corea. Japan had rejected
the proposals made by the British min
lister. although the latter had coun-
SEIZED a peaceful settlement of the
dispute.
The Chinese government had there
upon declared that unless the Japan
csc troops were withdrawn from Seoul
and Chemulpo, China would break of
the negotiations. The officials, when
further questioned said they discred-
tied the rumor that war had been de-
clared.
INQUIRIES were, also made at the
foreign office, but it was also stated
that no news had been received there
A telegram from Yokohama, received
tonight, states the acceptance of Corea
of the reforms proposed by Japan is
unconditional upon the withdrawal OF
Japanese troops from Corea. The ia
pan government was surprised at the
firm stand. which is supposed to prove
that Chinese influence is paramount
in Corea. In the direct negotiations
between Toxic and Pekin, China has
so far ignored the japanese counter.

PERSONNEL OF THE NAVY.
Several Very Important Changes
Are Made.

Washington, July 22.-The special
committee of Congress, made up of
three senators and three representatives
created for the purpose of framing a
systematic reorganization of the per
sonnet Of the navy, has complied its
work on the staff and line re-organiza-
ton of the navy and of the marine
corps. 1t remains only to reorganize
the enlisted branch of the service This
branch of the work will be completed
Monday, so the entire scheme of naval
reorganization will be reported to Con-
gress next week. In the reorganization
of the staff and line, completed today,
lit is provided there shall be eight mill
tary corps designed: Corps of the line,
medical corps, pay corps, engineer
corps, naval constructors, naval cadets.
enlisted men.
The list of commissioner line officers
is divided into seven grades with the
following limits: Sixteen rear admirals.
six captains, 100 commanders, seventy
four lieutenant-command $50 lieu
tenants, $50 lieutenats Of junior grade,
ensigns sufficient to maintain the total
active list. The grade of commodores
on the active list of the navy is abol-
ished and officers in that grade now or
the active list shall be commissioned
rear-admiralS.
No increase is made in any of the
corps. The status of each is fully de-
fined and a contention Of many years as
to relative rank between staff and line
officers is remedied.
The pay of staff officers is reduced tc
make it conform to that of line officers
of the same rank.
One of the most important features
the creation of a reserve list to on

The reserve list is limited to 100 and is
made up by taking from the most con-
gested branch Of the service Those en-

1861 and 1867, inclusive. This reserve
does not increase the number of officers

STEAM CARRIAGE RACE.

New York, July 22.-The Herald's
Paris dispatch says: a race was start
ed this morning from Paris to Rouen,
of vehicles, the motive power Of which
was petroleum or steam. Twenty-one
carriages took part. The correspond
ent at Nantes telegraphs that it was
just II o'clock when the Comte de Di-

minutes ahead Of the others. The
Prince de Sagan and Captain La Place
We're in the Comte de Dion's carriage.
The correspondent telegraphed in
the evening the Comte de Dion's car
riage arrived at Rouen at 5:25 p. M,
ahead of everything. He adds: rode
my cycle from Nantes to Rouen, start
ing an hour ahead of the Comte de Di-
on's. but at the Gaillan hill, his car
riage passed me going on the level at
the rate of % kilos, or II and a half
miles an hour. The carriage charged

M. Pengoet's petroleum motor was
the only carriage anything like able to
compete with the Comte de Dion's.
The others arrived at pretty regular
intervals up to ten minutes to p. m.
THE boiler tube of one of the car
riages burst, damaging the machine

LABOR AND MILITIA.
a. Plan to Capture the National
Guard of the Various States.

A Plan to Capture the National
Guard of the Various States.
New York, July 23-The Herald this
morning says: The report is current,
and its authenticity is vouched for by
an official attached to one of the most
influential of the labor organizations in
this city, that organized labor through
out the country is to unite in an effort
for the conversion of the militia to la
Dor interest. This iS to be accomplished
by the enlistment of labor men IA the
national guard of the several States.
The movement was inaugurated in the
west more than a year ago and labor
leaders in this city who favor the
scheme point to the recent conduct of
the national guard in California who re-
fused to do duty in Quelling the railroad
riots. as an evidence of what the plan
may accomplish.
It has been stated, as a result of the
conference held in Chicago, an order
was promulgated throughout the labor
organizations in the east directing the
men to enlist in militia. This is denied
by the labor leaders, but the fact re-
mains that the applications for admis-
sion to the regiments of the national
guard in this state have recently been
more numerous than ever, and among
them are many members of labor or
Plantations. Some OF the applicants
are members of the K. of l., and this
is regarded as significant, because OF
the fact that after the railroad riots in
Buffalo, in $780, the district assemblies
Of that order passed resolutions re-
ouesting their men to refrain from en-
listing In the national guard, and that
those already enlisted retire at the ex-
piration of their terms Of enlistment OF
earlier If possible. The officers of the
regiments of the national guard in this
city have no knowledge Of the move
