CHINA'S AWAKENING.
Has Ordered the Establishment of
More Military Academies.
Young Celestials to BE Trained as Soldiers
German Professors to Instruct In
Military Science - Railway En-
cheering to BE Studied.

According to advices received at the
state department the emperor of China
has issued a rescript, ordering the es-
Establishment of another academy for the
military training of young celestials.
AS an adjunct to the academy school
for the study of railway engineering is
to be provided. By such action China
shows that she is awakening to the nee
essity of a military education for her
subjects. Two academies have been In
operation for some time, but they are
not sufficient for the needs Of the en-
pire. The new project is the result of
a memorial submitted to the throne by
Chang Chin-Tung, acting viceroy Of
the Iiang Kiang provinces, who organ
lied the Ad Astra brigade, composed of
picked young men, trained by Germans
to become cavalrymen, infantrymen,
sappers and miners.
China Is sadly in want of trained
material to resist the entertainments Of
outside nations, and the reason why
German armies are superior 10 those of
other European countries is due to the
fact that every man in the former coun-
try is a soldier. Not a single officer In
the German army but has graduated
from some military academy. Ten
years ago military academy was es-
tablished in Tiemsin. At that time
Chang Chin-Tung was viceroy of the
two Kbang provinces, and he followed
the example of the Peiyang authorities
by establishing a similar academy at
Canton. Although the number of grad
yates turned out by the two institutions
is but limited, yet opportunity has been
taken to utilize their Service as officers
in the new German drilled brigade,
organized recently by Chang Chin.
Tung.
There is already a naval academy at
Marking, and China has decided to es-
tablish a military academy at the
Yifeng gate of the same city, spaciously
laid out and constructed after German
methods. The Chinese authorities have
already cabled to Berlin to engage fiv,
professors of military science to talk,
charge of the new academy. Tht
new school will be divided into cavalry
infantry, artillery (horse and FOOT, en-
gtneering and fertilization classes, anc
strategy and tactics will be CAREFUL,
taught in the academy. As rail
ways will be a portion of the strategi
defenses of the empire, Ching Chin
Tung intends to form as an adjunct t.

constructed on large scaIc mr. uro IaI..
While the cost of steel car will natural
ly be more than that of wooden one,
sufficient experience has already been
acquired to warrant the statement that
on a commercial basis these cars can
be constructed at cost not to exceed
that per ton of carrying capacity of
wooden cars, and with safety factor
in favor of the steel. They have been
tested with load of wet sand and pig
iron weighing 125,OoO pounds. The use
of steel will not be confined to freight
cars. 1t is intended in the near future
to build passenger cars of steel throughs
out, and thus do away with the danger
of splintering in railroad collisions.

JEWEL OF THE MELUSINE ORDER.
King Guy of Jerusalem. The decora-
ton is given to those who assist in any
way the Armenian nation, or to those
who have distinguished themselves in
science, letters or the arts. ...r.t...
The jewel of the order consists of the
cross of Jerusalem in blue enamel. Be
tween the four points of the cross are
four smaller crosses in silver, while in
the center are the arms of the royal
house of Lusignan.
The jewel is surmounted by a silver
crown, and is worn upon the left
breast, suspended from blue ribbon
with white borders. s....,-
Prince Guy de Lusignan, the giver Oh
the decoration, is also the hereditary
prince of Jerusalem, Cyprus and Ar
menia, being descended from the last
kings of these countries. One of his
ancestors, also named Guy, became
king Of Jerusalem and Armenia in 1856
by his marriage with Sibylla, the
daughter of the former king.
This Sibyila was the one who found.
ed the order of Melusine. In 1887 King
Guy was defeated in the battle of tt.
berias, and several years later retired
to the island of Cyprus, where he
regned for two years. His descend.
ants ruled the island for nearly 3OC
years, when it was sold to the Repub.
lie of Venice by Catherine Carnaro
from that time on the Lusignans have
been scattered throughout the east.
Prince Guy, the present head of the
royal house of Lusignan, was born in
Constantinople in 1894, and received
his education in Venice and Paris. The
prince was for some, years at the head
of the Armenian schools in Paris, but
he resigned to devote more of his time
to the study of oriental languages
about which he has given much valua
BILE information to the scientific world
His wife was Princess Mariede
Goupil, who died five years ago. His
brother, the late Prince Khorene, was
the head of the Armenian church, and
was one of the representatives of the
Berlin conference of 1878.

KING OF SLUGGERS.
Tom Sharkey Is the Latest Hero of
Prize-Eight Enthusiasts.

Few boxers have attained an interna-
tional reputation as rapidly as Thomas
Sharkey, ex-champion Of the United
States navy. Prior to the night he had a
brief set-to with James ]. Corbett he
was practically unknown, excepting to
the few who follow the fstic game with
regularity. He went on the stage with
Corbett that night with all the con-
tidence possible in man in his position
and justified all the good things his
friends had said about him by more than
holding his own with the man who was
thought to have only one or two rivals
for the championship of the world.

In Some Counties 1t Is Hauled Twenty
Five Miles.
A water famine exists in a large POP
ton of Arkansas and in some sections
human beings are actually suffering
from the pangs Of thirst. There have
been isolated thunder showers In vari-
Gus portions of the state recently, but
in some counties no rain has fallen
since April IS, and the suffering is al
most beyond belief. A gentleman ar
rived at Little Rock the other morning
from an overland trip through portions
of Jefferson, Cleveland and Bradley
counties, and says that people in some
localities are hauling water for drink
ing purposes in barrels distance of rs
miles and that for an entire day he was
unable to buy a glass of water to
quench his thirst. White river is run
ming dry and the mayor of Fayetteville
has issued proclamation prohibiting
the sprinkling of streets, the water be-
ing needed for drinking purposes.

STEEL RAILWAY CARS.

Another Progressive Step In Modern Rail-

At last steel ears have been made.
For years they have been regarded as
the coming car, but owing to the high
price of steel they were not thought to
be economically possible until the
twentieth century. A great steel COM
pany, in order to show under the pres
ent conditions the possibilities of steel
in this direction, has constructed two
cars of this material which are the first
to their kind. AS the picture shows,
they are of simple construction, being

When the sailor boy woke the next
morning he found himself noted char
acter. He had performed what many
thought remarkable feat, and was so
Landed for his deed that Corbett was
practically forced to make a match to
fight him to a finish for the champion
ship and $4,000 a side. Whether Cor
bett has the right to compete for the
title is questioned by many, but that
does not enter into the argument so
far as Sharkey is concerned. He thinks
he is the best man in the world, and is
anxious to prove it. He may be given
the opportunity before the first day of
next year. The ex-marine is not par
ticularly handsome man, but he has all
the earmarks of a great athlete. Many
will think it was bad thing for him to
come before the people so suddenly,
arguing the tendency to become inflated
with his own Importance. But those
who know Sharkey will Lot think so.
There is nothing at all boastful about
him, nor does he impress one with be-
ing in the least susceptible to fattery.
His great breadth of shoulders and thue
rapid manner of moving are the princi-
pal things that EXTRACT an onlooker to
him. He is young Irishman, and early
in life learned blacksmithing. After he
had served his apprenticeship love for
the sea asserted itself and he shipped in
the British merchant service. He liked
America too well to stay on the other
side long, and soon became one of Uncle
Sans sailors. He served three years on
the ship Independence and was hon
orably discharged at the expiration of
that time. During his service he won
the championship of the navy number
of times. The ship he was with was
stationed in Honolulu for some months,
and fondness for boxing was encouraged
among the seamen by the officers.
There it was that Sharkey first became
known as a fighter. He is "a years old.

MARKETS BY TELEGRAPH.



New York, March 23.-(Special.)-A fur
Their slump in Liverpool temporarily de-
pressed prices here today, but there was
good buying at the-decline and the weak
ness did not last long. May opened at 1853,
rallied to 7.65, broke to 7.5S and closed at
7.62@763 with the tone steady. There was
a manifest indisposition to sell the present
crop months, in view of the perfect ease
with which they may be cornered. There
is very little cotton available for delivery
here and to bring 1t here under present con-
ditions would involve loss of at least " of
a cent per pound Such a condition of
things has never existed in this market.
1t Is no wonder that the bears are weary
about selling Trade is bad enough and at
the moment there seems no encouragement
to buy cotton, but 1t would be folly to shut
our eyes to the fact that the situation here
in New York is such that any favorable
development might cause a jump In all the
months this side of September, compared
with which the recent advance would be q
trif1ing affair; and yet many think the near
months the best sale, simply because nine
out of ten traders are afraid to sell them.
