Japan's Terms of Peace.

WASHINGTON. April 10.-The cable
announcement that seven of the eight
japanese conditions have been accept
ed bv Peace, Commissioner Ii Hung
Chang is very gratifying to diplomats
here, who have no longer any doubt
that peaceful termination will speedl-
" result. Asunderstood IN Washing
ton the eight conditions were as fol-
lows:
1. independence OF Corea.
2. Cessien of Fornosa.
3. Cession of Liam Tong Promon-
tory, including Port Arthur.
4. War indemnity.
5. Admission of machinery into
China and permission to foreigners to
establish factories.
6. Modification of likin tax and ex-
tension of system of transit passes for
imports.
T. Opening certain Chinese rivers to
commerce, including the Iang-tse-
Kiang to Chung King, the Slang from
Han kow on the Yang-tse to Slang
Tan Kiang, Canton River to Ouachow
and Woosung and its canals as far as
Suchow and Hang Chow.
S. Railway privileges and similar
concessions to japanese and foreign
capitalists.
In addition to these conditions it IS
believed certain promises have been O
will be exacted from China, the terms
of which are to remain secret. The
condition which, it is thought, has not
vet been accepted by Ii Hung Chang
is that numbered three above, provid-
ing for the occupation OF portion of
the territory known as the Regents
Sword and Citadel of Port Arthur.
That this would be most strenuousiy
opposed by China has all along been
uudoubted. and it has been predicted
that it might prove Il stumbling block
OF such dimensions as to prevent peace
unless some compromise could be
agreed upon as to the length of occupa-
ton, the Chinese being likely to insist
that i.:should not be permanent. All
other conditions, except that Of indem-
nits-, lave been the subject Of diploma
tic consideration for many years, and
all treaty Powers are as deeply inter,
ested in them as Japan has been. The
United States have been particularly
active IN urging the abolition Of the
hkin tax, which: is not unlike the oc-
tori of France, though less reasonable
anG less limited than the French sys-
tea. The independence of Corea has
alw2ys been IN contention, and the
United States have firmly maintained
that Corea vas to be treated as amin
dependent nation since her minister at
Washington was recognized ten years

FOR TEMPERANCE WORKERS.
Useful Suggestions from an Illinois
Editor.

In recent article. addressed more
particularly to mem bers of the order,
the Illinois Good Templar says:
Every member in our Order has
promised to do all in his power to ad-
vance the cause Of temperance" Do
we realize how far-reaching and signi-
ficant this promise is? Are we doing
''all in our power to advance the cause
of temperance While we are edu-
eating the young and persuading the
moderate drinker to forsake his habits,
we must not overlook the drunkard,
because he is in need of our most low
ing solicitude and consideration. Tru-
ly. as Paul srys: I'VE must be all
things to all men that we may save
some" It's this thought in our mind
that impels us to call attention to a
line of work much neglected, but
which might be taken up by almost
every lodge in the State with compar-
atively little otfort; that is, the treat
ment OF inebriety as disease. Any
lodge can. by a series of entertainments
or lectures, easily raise the sum of
money to be used for this special pur-
pose, to be known as a Rescue fund"
This is to be used for defraying the
expenses of the patient while taking
a course of treatment at some Kelley
Institute. The patient, when cured,
will, of course, be required to refund
the loan as soon as possible; and when
repaid, it can be used again and again,
and thus be a permanent feature of the
work with practically no expense to the
lodge after the original fund is raised.
Several Good Temp1ar Lodges have
been working along this line for some
time, and with great success. On the
return of patient, he should be in
it;a.ed into the'lodge and'the members
should endeavor to make it pleasant
for him, this by their influence in a
social way making it possible for him
to start life anew with brighter pros
poets.
We refer to the Kelley Treatment
advi,edly because it is undoubtedly
the best known Of the many remedies
for the cure of inebrates and because
| OF it's uniform success, statistics show
inc that out of over 100000 patients
treated, ninty-fve per cent. were per-
manen:ly cured, and have been return
ed to society, not as charge, but as
self-supporting, respectable citizens.
1t has beea introduced into the Sol
diers Homes and the regular army:
Colorado, Louisiana and Maryland
have laws providing for the treatment
to beadLMnistered the habitual drunk
crd at the expense of the State. Bills
looking to the enactment of similar
legislation are pending i'll the leglsla-
lures of Illinois and eight other States
in some of which they have been pass
ed in one branch and reports are en-
couraging that they will become
| laws.
From personal observation among
friends and acquaintance who have
taken the Kelley treatment, we can
heartily recommend it as being all
that is claimed for it.
How successful it has proved in the
Soldiers Home can be seen from the
latest official report of Col. a. J. Smith
Governor at Leavenworth, which will
be found in another column.

ed is successfully administered. at the

Governor General Campos.

HAvASNAH, VIA KEY. WEST. April
10.-Brig. Gen. Jose Jimerrez Moreno,
chief of the Governor Generals staff,
sailed today on the 'Villaverde to re-
ceive Martinez Campos. who is ex-
pected to arrive by the 18th. Campos
will land at Guantanamo or Santiago,
and by royal decree becomes Cover
nor General the moment he sets foot
on land, avoiding the delay attendant
upon observing the customary form of
taking the oath of Office here.
Governor General Calleja will retire
from Office upon notice of the landing
of Campos and will sail home on the
20tl inst. General Campos is expect
ed to push active operations against
the insurgents in the province of San
tiago de Cuba, which is the only sec
ton where the insurgents are known
to be in any numbers. Latest advices
place the number at 5000, divided
into bands Of so to 200 men each. Gen.
Bartolo Maso is in command. The
other leaders are Adjt. Gen. Cespedes,
chief field officer, Col. Estaban Tama-
yo, Capts. Rabi Perez Estrada, Bello
Guerra, Lewis, Capote Suarez Papas,
Vega, Gonzalez, Aramburo and Brea.
The insurgents announce that syndi-
cate has been formed il the United
States to furnish money for the revo-
luton, reimbursements guaranteed
from customs receipts when independ-
ence is secured. Wealthy and infu-
ential Cubans here give no aid to the
insurgents and declare the uprising a
mistake. All three parties here pledge
support to the Government. The gen
eral belief is the insurrection will be
short we'd.
Gen. La Cnamhre, in command Of
the Government forces in Santiago
province, reports rowing bands in the
mountainous section, but no massing
Of insurgents and no rising in other
provinces. All are under martial law.
Troops are stationed at all towns.
Monday band of forty-eight noun
ted insurgents invaded Puerto Prin-
cipe province and were attacked by
Government forces and defeated. One
leader, Panchin Varona, was killed,
another mortally wounded and taken
prisoner and woman and child in a
hut killed by stray balls. Three of the
party, VINO landed near Baracoa with
Maceo after killing the captain of the
schooner Honora, were captured Mon
day. The others fled to the noun

THE CUBAN UPRISING GAINING GROUND.
New YORK, April 10.-The Ward
Line Steamer, which arrived this
morning from Mexican ports and
Havannah, says that it was learned
that while nothing official could be
heard Of the progress of the Cuban
insurrection the uprising was general
throughout the island and was gain
ing ground daily. Everything is at
high tension among the people, and
the insurgents have more sympathi-
zers than the authorities are willing to

After awhile l see another throng

moment, just where you are, to kneel
down and cry to the Lord Almighty
for his deliverance?
You want to get in, do you not?
Oily have some good friends there.
This last year there was some one
who went out from your home into
that blessed place. They did not have
any trouble getting through the gates,
did they: No, they knew the pass
word, and coming up they said, '"Je-

heads, We everlasting gates, and let

all done, and the troops of God shout
the castle taken, how grand it will be
if you and I are among them. Blessed
are all they who enter in through the
gates into the city.

is right. Of course it is. You know
that no earthly palace or fortress

with no one to guard them, and the

bauched of earth who have not re-

those nefarious men who despised
God should come to the gate, one of
the keepers would put his hand on his
shoulder and push him into outer
darkness. There is no place in that
land for thieves and liars and who're

and of the four men who mad entered
the barn to arrest Glenn one was dead
and two were wounded. Lieut.. James
Minor, however, was still in the barn
firing at Glenn, who lay in safety be-
hind the lumber
Suddenly Glenn rose up and fired
and dropped back behind the lumber.
Then Lieut.. Minor felt his ankle give
way and knew that he was wounded.
But the shot that wounded the lieuten-
ant had exhausted (1lenn's ammunition
and the next moment he called out:
Lieutenant, I'll give up if you won't
let 'em kill me-" AL right, replied
Minor. Throw down your pistol and
come down" The negro obeyed and
the next minute Lieut.. Minor led his
prisoner from the barn. As the lieu
tenant stepped forth with his prisoner
the first object that his eyes fell upon
was the corpse of his brother Ed, lying
| near the door of the barn. Until then
the lieutenant did not know his broth
er was dead.
The lieutenant led the negro toward
the city Jail, which was more than a
mile away, followed by an immense
crowd clamoring for the negros blood.
Near the city jail Policeman Ed Hol-
land approached with pistol drawn,
swearing he would kill the negro and
avenge his brother officer, Ed Minor
The lieutenant placed his pistol
against Hollands head and said:
This man is a prisoner and as such
sacred. if you Shoot him l will blow
out your brains" So Lieut.. Minor
brought the negro safely to Jail. This
was about S o'clock and by 9 O'Clock
there was rumors that mob was
! forming to storm the jail and lynch
the negro. The mob was said to be
composed of negroes as we'll as white
men. as the former were enraged over
the killing of Stucks by Glenn.
This rumor proved to be untrue, but
the officers, IN order to run no risks,
moved the negro secretly from the jill,

The President was informed of the
income tax decision shortly after it
was rendered by the Supreme Court,
and at 80 he summoned Secretary
Carlisle to the Executive Mansion and
the two discussed the matter for some
time. Other members of the Cabinet
dropped in later, among them the
Attorney General. The decision was
a disappointment, but the Admlnlstra-
ton will at once issue instructions to
collectors of internal revenue to con-
form to the emasculated law. Secre-
tarv Carlisle followed his well defined
custom not to discuss the matter for
publication.
Attorney General Olney said the
Government would not ask for a re-
hearing, but would accept the decision
as rendered. He was not surprised at
that portion of it excepting munlclpal
and State bonds from taxation. but
expressed the hope that the question
of rents might be brought before the
Court in some other shape when he
entertained the strong belief that the
present attitude of the Court would be
revised.

Commissioner Miller and the officia
