MEXICO AND TIE UNITED STATES


Mexico, while willing to avail herself
Of all the benefits accruing from the
enforcement OF the Monroe doctrine,
is not ready to repose entire confidence
In the United States. She has not for
gotten the war with this country, by
which she was deprived OF vast areas of
valuable territory, and her statesmen,
no doubt, see, In the steady growth and
aggrandizement Of the United States, a
constant menace to the safety of their
republic.
Already some of them have sounded
notes of warning and see in the steady
inflow of people and money from this
side OF the line danger OF that final
absorption which brought Texas, New
Mexico, Arizona and California into
the Union. When France, under tho
rule Of Napoleon III, had overturned
their government and established Max
imilian on the Mexican throne the
sympathy and aid given by this country
to Jsurez and his followers was very
welcome and timely; but that danger
has long since been removed aud the
Colossus of the North" again looms up
a constant specter, threatening to
swallow up the whole country as it
already has some OF its fairest and NJ oss
fertile sections.
Hence they are wary In according the
United States greater advantages, and
in the matter of trade have been much
more inclined to give the preference to
English and Germans. This spirit of
distrust is shown in dispatch from the
City OF Mexico relative to the sugges-
ton that the United States acquire a
protectorate over Venezuela. The Mex
leans do not relish this idea. Their
statesmen say they would regard such
move as unwise and unnecessary.
They believe that this country can
better sutserve its own interesta in the
matter of the Nicsraguan canal and the
enforcement of the Monroe doctrine
generally by simply adhering to the
latter, and by not adding to Its burdens
and complications by taking any OF the
southern brood OF republics entirely
under its wings. England's grasping
policy, especially in tho Venezuela
matter. Is. they say. alternating from
her the sympathies of the South Ameri.
can republics, and America by preserve
ing her dignity, and standing out
steadily for fair play will, they assert,
be able to secure for her citizens large
share OF the trade already monopolizod
| by the British.

edict has been issued authorizing Ii
Hung Chang to sign the terms OF peace,
in accor dance with the Japanese ulti-

China is two hundred million taels.
The edict further authorizes Lilo Hung
Chang to grant possession of the Lao
Tung peninsula to tho fortieth degree
OF latitude, and the island Of Formosa
to the Japanese, also to consent to the
opening OF Pekin and four new ports to
commerce, and to giving the Japanese
power to open cotton factories and
other industries in China.

NEED OF EXERCISE.
Discussion of tho Educational and IIealth-
Giving Value of Athletics.

Giving Value of Athletics.
Civilized man who will not exercise
as an average does not live out half tho
term of his allotted thrce-score years
and ten. Lack of exercise is not tho
sole cause of this dcgcncrative ten
dency, of course, but it is one important
cause. Hence, recognizing this, it be-
comes tho duty of man, in virtue of his
boosted nationality, to dispel this
cause, and by giving proper attention
further conqucsts. The necessity for
this forces itself upon him in way
that leaves no ground for question.
The only things to be determined are
the degree of development that is to be
desired and the methods by which it
may best be secured.
As to the degree of Development that
will tend to preserve the health of the
muscles and other organs, it is, of
course, says writer in uarper's Week
~, impossible to speak except in gen
eral terms. Everyone secures some
measure of exercise in the routine of
his ordinary life. But very few voca-
tons are calculated to give the vari-
Gus muscles of the body symmetrical
exercise. The rational thing, of course,
is for any individual to exercise per-
functorily those sets of muscles that
ore not exercised naturally in his ordi-
nary manner of living. For the vast
majority of people under ordinary con-
ditions of living the muscles that are
most sighted are those of the chest
and upper extremitics. Nearly every
one is obliged to walk enough in day
to keep his leg and thigh muscles in
condition of reasonable tonicity. But
the average individual has chest and
upper-arm muscles that arc flabby and
undeveloped to the last degree.
Measurement of the few average
arms will at once satisfy anyone of
this. There was n time, doubtless,
when our ancestors had arms as large
as their legs, perhaps even larger. Our
remote tree-dwelling relatives have
such arms now. But centuries of biped
use have developed our lower extrem-
tiles isproportionatcly, until now the
most fully developed human arm bears
no comparison in size to the thigh of
the same individual Of normaU. 1t is
held by anatomists that the fully de-
i'eloPeu upper hr1l aI Jne present stage
of our racial evolution should be of the
same size as the calf of the leg, and
this size. it may be added, the same as
that of the neck.
These measurements being taken as
the critcria of perfectly symmetrical
development, anyone may easily find
out for himself how far he falls short
of such development. AS rule, the
tapeline will show Mt once that it is the
upper extremity which needs atten-
ton. 1t is not to be expected that the
person who is merely exercising for
health will ever develop his arm till it
meets the standard of symmetrical de-
velopment, nor is it necessary that he
should do SO. So long as he works in
that direction he is on the right track,
and If he keeps the muscles of the
arms, chest and shoulders in tone" SO
that they tend to keep him erect, and
are sufficiently firm to give support to
the blood vessels that penetrate them,
he will accomplish all that is absolutely
necessary.

CHINA AND JAPAN.

The reported signing OF the treaty OF
peace between China and Japan has
been confirmed by adispatch from Hon.
John w. Foster, the American advisor
OF the Chinese plenipotentiaries; but, al
to what really constitutes the basis of
She agreement, there. is much doubt.
According TO the terms reported. Japan
gets all she asked for, excepting per-
haps the full amount Of the indemnity.
Besides securing the independence Of
Corea, China cedes Formosa to her per.
msnently, and allows her TO retain all
the conquered places and territory east
OF the Lao river.
An offensive and defensive alliance is
also formed between the late belliger-
ents, and, to all intents and purposes,
the great Chinese Empire seems to be
temporarily absorbed by the lesser
power. II Is not at all probable, how
ever, that England and Russia will
consent to such an arrangement, as 1t
would virtually place all of China's
resources, both for war and commerce.
under Japanese control, and might lead
to g combination in the East that would
eventually make Japan's interests
paramount, to the exclusion of all
Western influence entirely.
The wonderful fighting capacity of
the Japanese under European methods
has startled the world, and until the
prowess OF the latter country has been
tested against some Western power,
the influence of this new factor in
eastern affairs mus remain problem
atical. Already The English press Ia

THE INCOME TAX.
Instructions Given to Collectors In Regard
to Delinquents.

to Delinquents
WASHINGTON, April 16-The follow
ing Instructions wore to-day cent to all
internal revenue collectors: In cases
OF incorrect income tax returns, now
hled In your office, you will notify
the persons who filed such re-
turns that they must appear within a
reasonable time, specifying the date and
place for appearance, and correct or ex-
plain said return and that on their fall
ure to appear and make such conditions
you will correct and increase the
amount OF such returns, stating the
particular conditions which shall be
made and the amount by which said re-
turns will be increased
Where persons and corporations liable
to make returns have neglected or re-.
fused to make return, and where in
your opinion, false or fraudulent returns
have been FLED, you will give notice on
form 800 to the delipquents, and to
those who made such false or fraudulent
returns, to appear and show cause why
penalties shall not be assessed against
them. All returns made by Taxpayers
for 1894, except such as are delayed by
reason of appeals, must BIO completed
and forwarded to this Office not later
than the fifteenth day of May next.
Although no official statement of the
facts will be given out to-day for publ.
cation. it is believed that the returns
received to-day show almost conclu-
sively that large number of persons
In all parts Of the country who are sub.
1ect to the income tax have not made re.
turns OF their incomes. The proportion
OF these to the whole number liable to
the tax Is by some placed as high as ten
per cent.
This state OF things is something of
surprise to the officials, although it was
expected that the division OF the SUI
preme court on the constltutionality OF
the tax as whole would have the effect
OF discrediting It with large number
OF tax.payers who would take tho risk
of paying fifty per cent. penalty rather
than make their returns.
This assumption has been proven to
be correct, and the result must neces.
sarily be en- assessment Of the penalty
in large number Of cases, as the
officials, no doubt, will strictly enforce
the act so long as 1t remains the law.
