Tile PERIL N TIE EAST

A new and most serious complication Ii threat
encd In Eastern Asia. IL Is intima'cd that the
Chinese Government may after al refuse 10
ra,lfy the treaty Of peace with Japan. A few
DAYS ngo indications were all the other way. The
Chinese Emperor had sent for Ii Hung Chang
10 come nj once TO Picking, and had. II was con
fidcnty declared signincd his approval Of the
treaty The date was set. few days hence for
the exchanging Of publications.. and. 80 far ms the
two principals I'm the recent struggle were con
cerned. everything was gracefully concluded"
But Russia was busy. Russian agents. with
threats and promises and brides. were laborlng
with Chinese officials The Russian press under
official inspiration. was breathing out threaten
ings and slaughter against Japan Russian dl-
plomacy brought other European Powers, to the
scandal Of the world into an unholy league for
bullying and plumber. Finally Russian ships or
war were sent out with sealed orders; and at the
same moment the announcement was made that
China might not accept the treaty.
That Of course, is Russia's game. IT has been
her desire from the beginning that China should
reject the treaty. The result OF such rejection
would be an instant renewal OF the war, and OF
Japans irresistible march upon Picking. That,
too, is just what Russia wants. II she could get
the present Chinese dynasty Overthrown, as It
would be il Picking were taken, and II she could
get the whole Celestial Empire into the hrocs
of ACKNOWLEDGMENT and anarchy, her game would,
as she thinks, be won She would then have the
dearest possible case for forcible Intervention,
and no other European Power would object. In
deed, they would all make a simultaneous rush
to intervene and TO grab what they could from
the wreck In such an international go-as-you-
please Japan would not be able to hold her pres
ent commanding position. Like blind Samson.
she would have pulled the heather temple down
to ruin. and would be lucky II she were not, like
him, herself crushed In the wreck.
Such Is the mOnstrous game the Muscovie
tyrant is endcavoring to play. Perhaps 1t will
succeed It's chances will be good II China really
does reject the treaty. Whether she will accept
1t or reject 1t. the next few days will show. II
she accepts 1t. as is devoutly to be hoped the
position Of japan will be. morally and logically,
| impregnable. and 1t will be physically so strong
- to give Russia reason 70 pause before shs a.

Buchanan; and while the latter's lawyers assure
him that he will not be put to death this week,

sentence will be carried into effect on Wedncs-

OF the condemned murderer. 1t would be based
on the terrible mental suffcrings which he has
been compelled TO undergo by the repeated ad-
tournment Of the date appointed for his death.
These postponements have been due to what
can only be described rs the misguided efforts

have had the effect of increasing the punishment

scented by the Buchanan case and by the failure
to secure the jury needed to try Police Inspector

THE BAND MUST vACATE.
1t Makes Too Much Racket in the City
Building for Com ort.

The city council are thinking about
disolving partnership with the band
and perhaps the musical club. They
hate to do it, but a due regard for the
preservation of their ears and nerves
Will COMPEL them to take action.
About Three years ago two or three
ladies met Captain Carey in the corri-
dor of the city building one afternoon
when he was in the most genial humor.
They we've armed for him with smiles
that would affect the conscious of a
king and they asked him for a room in
the city building. He was too knightly
a gentleman to refuse and he gave them
the room not anticipating the conse-
quences. Scarcely had his action been
ratified unanimously by the council
when a startling sound had rung
through the building and then the coun-
Gil saw what it had done. a lady was
trying to pitch her voice higher than
the north star.
Shortly after that the new band was
organized and the leader asked permits
sion of the council to let them use an
other room in the city building. The
council yielded on the medical theory
of man taking one poison TO counter
act another. They are sorry now, for
while the band is playing the council
cannot do any business and many a
fine aldermanic Grafton is cut up into
fragments by the sudden footing of a
horn. They not only play but it is said
that they Scuffie on the bare floor and
cut up in many ways. From the way
the councilmen talked yesterday there
will be some vacant noiseless rooms in
the city building soon.

statement is a little extravagant for

WOMAN WHO WORE BLACK.
Local Curiosity Over Something that Peo-
pie Keep Close Mouthed About.

Local curiosity is somewhat excited
over another mysterious woman. She
came in on the Missouri Pacific train,
engaged hack No. 10 and desired to see
a certain man on urgent business and
was driven south on Main street. The
hackman'S mouth is shut tight and he
will not say a word. 1t is said that the
woman was a former well known lady
of this city. 1t is also said that she
wanted a prominent man and the story
goes too that she had revolver about
eight feet long tucked away in the folds
of her skirts This part of the story is
said TO be denied by the hackman and
that, on the contrary, she appeared to
be entirely docile and looked more like
she was going 10 see a dear friend than
an enemy. Several fellows shake their
heads and smile about the matter and
look as wise as deacons of the Lime
Kiln club. Those who ara not on the
inside seem unable 10 find anything
about it and are ma tur'ally looking for
the revival of some old sensation OF the
palmy days.

Thode Brown came in last night from
Grant township where he saw the great
est monstrosity he has ever seen in his
life time and he has Travelled a mile or
two through this world. The mon
strosity is nothing more or less than a
calf with two perfectly developed heads
and everything else that goes with them
except the fact that the heads have only
one ear each.
Mr.. James Smith is the fortunate
possessor Of this freak of nature and
Thode and all his neighbors think II
will make his fortune for him.
The calf has four eyes four sets of
nostrils and two mouths. He can and
does suck with both of them and has
an appetite like an Indian. The calf is
only six days old and is the greatest
CURIOSITY ever seen in that neighbor-
hood. Hundreds of people have been
to see him and already Mr. Smith has
been offered $500 for him for a museum.
He will not sell the animal until Ring
ling brothers can be communicated
with who are expected to give him a
good price
In speaking about the calf Mr..
Brown said: 81 have seen calves be-
fore with two heads but they were GEN
orally defective. These are perfect
heads each of them standing out from
the neck separately and independently.
The heads are Joined on the poll and
l do believe the calf has two brains.
l wanted him to bring the animal to
town to be exhibited but he does not
feel like doing it yet. He will live for
he is as slick and healthy as any calf
you have ever seen"

tin were shipped 10 Pierce, Neb.
On September 25th the deceased left
his home for a tour overland, in COM
pany with his brother intending to go
to New Mexico. He had been in poor
health for some time, being a sufferer
of that dread disease consumption. He
was in hopes the trip would do him
good. And he was greatly encouraged
as he appeared 10 grow better each day
until last Sunday when he was taken
suddenly worse and on arriving at
Wichita he WAS taken TO the SIT. Fran
els hospital where he died Monday
night. He was Sc years of age, ana his
deaths taken very hard by his
young - other who had accompanied
him. Thus in the midst of their hopes
for a new lease of life were they DOOM
ed to sad disappointment.
