choice of an appropriate place of
meeting remains to be considered.
The Chinese have designated one of
their own ports, Shanghai, as a
desirable rendezvous, but to this Japan
will not consent, and considerable
time has been lost in discussing
the locality, but the movement
toward the place Is proceeding, how
ever, in apparently good faith on the
part Of the Chinese and with sincerity
by the japanese. The Japanese minis
tiers are thoroughly aware that the In
terests of the country will be most
worthiiy served by bringing the war
to an end with the least possible
delay. The task before them is not an
easy one, for the strong and active
military classes are bent on further
eonquests on large scale, and the pub
lie feeling is all in favor Of int1lcIIng
additional punishment on the enemies
and demanding inordlnate claims OF
settlement.
LONDON, Jan. IA dispatch to the
Times from Pekin says that the Chinese
envoy TO negotiate for peace with Japan
had farewell audience with the en-

negotiations will be frui1less. The
Japanese will withhold their terms for
peace until they shall have occupied

China:
Honolulu, Dec.31. 1S94.-The prelimi-
nary examination OF the alleged con-
spirators took place last week, and
three Of them have been held for Trial
without bail. The main witnesses for
the prose cution were spies in employ OF
the government, WhowoTmed themselves
into the confidence of the coaspirators,

the whole thing away. According TO
the witnesses for the government there

those who were to be arrested. Among
them were President Dole, his cabinet
officers, members OF the eXecu-
tive and advisory councils, newly
elected members of the legiSla-
ure, police ana army officers.
The conspirators claimed 10 have some
two thousand stands of arms and the
support of the natives, but the trial de-
veloped the fact that the natives took
no stock in the affair, and that the
conspiracy was simply gotten up by a
gang OF discontented whites ana half
whites. President Dole has received an

FAMOUS
Authors Who Refuse TO Take Pay
For Their Work,

This is true of Count Lyof Nikolaie
witch Tolstoi, the famous Russian
author. who, while in the army is a
member of the staff of Prince Gort.
schakoff. was present at the 'storming of
Sebastopol in 1855. Leaving the army,
and already famous as poet and
novelist. he devoted himself 10 literat-
ure. and spent short time in the mos
brilliant literary and social circle of St.
Petersburg. Since his marriage he has
lived in more or less retirement. and
during the Russian famines of 1891 and
1892 made great effort on behalf of the
peasants on and in the vicinity of his
estates.
In the latter year Count Tolstoi re-
signed all social standing and privil-
eges of his rank, and he now devotes
most OF his time and money to good
works, while living as poorly as any of
the peasantry. He insists that the lit
eral translation of the sermon on the
mount is the only rule of Christian life,
and he has expressly declined to avail
himself of any copyright in his works

LIFE.

An angel from the dazzling walls Of light
And aons OF celestial calm and grace,
Swept down the starry distances OF space
To this gray earth OF shadow and Of night.
A woman taught him human loves great
might;
Hot tears for scarlet sins left their sad
truce;
He felt earth's wrongs, its purple passions
base.
And Joined the shock of battle for the right.
His seraph soul, shot through with carnal
stain,
Deep, varied, a warm gem with color rife,
Denied the heaven be cared not to regain,
And. drifting toward the dark. where ends
all strife,
In sickness. and in poverty. and pain.
He sighed yet smiling. whispered: This
was life.
