asunder. He positively refused to d.
voree his wife and said that he would
try TO save her. The result was that
the veteran missionary, who had been
nearly so years on the islands, was
read out of the church. He started a
new church, an Independent Congre-
gational, and his influence with the ma
tives won nearly all of them over to
his side. The strain was too much,
however, for one of his advanced years
and before his work was completed he
died.

TOKYO FARMERS IN ARMS.

Excited Populace Tell Minister of
Injury to Lands.
YOKOHAMA, March Ion We'd
nesday morning, about 400 farmers
from Tochigi and Gumma Procedures,
armed with bamboo spears and other
weapons, assembled in front of the
Department of Agriculture and Com
merce in Tokyo, and insisted upon hav-
ing an interview with the Minister
The leaders in this unseemly disturb
ance stated that they had assembled
for the purpose of informing the Min
lister of the true state of affairs in and
around the Ashio copper mine, and
the devastation the mine is causing to
cultiyable land in its vicinity, and
along the banks of the Ashio River
The farmers did not attack the build
ings of the Agricultural and CONNER
cial Department, or do harm to any of
the officials, but great excitement pre-
vailed for some time and matters look
ed very dangerous, owing to the size
of the mob. Policemen from every
quarter of the capital We're called to
the spot by telephone, and eventually
they succeeded in dispensing the
crowd. It is said that large number
of farmers are on their way to the
capital from the agricultural districts
of Gumma Prefecture, and when they
arrive there will be fully 1000 in To
kyo. 1t is feared that the excited ag-
riculturists will make further attempts
at demonstration, as they feel their
grievances acutely.

Gold -standard in Japan.

In 1869 Japan declared for silver
standard; in 1871 she declared for
gold; in 1873 she reverted to silver, and
now the pendulum swings again to
gold. The reasons upon which the
proposed change is supported ore of the
most diverse and contradictory nature,
and the complaisant cotton spinners OF
Osaka actually find comfort in the re-
Election of silver, which is the very
thing it was supposed they would fear.
The belief is that the real motive for
the change lies far away from any OF
the reasons which have been officially
put forward. Right or wrong; the
japanese are as wild for gold now as
they were for war some three years
ago, and for pigs and rabbits some
time before that, and the mass of then
have as little thought out the conse'
quences.

STOLE MONEY ORDERS.
Young solomon Found in Posses.
sion Stolen Drafts.

When Solomon, the young man ar
rested for stealing a bike on Monday
night was searched, there was found
safely tucked away in memorandum
book, found on his person, draft on
C. Brewer & Co., for $1S5 issued by the
manager of Kahuku plantation, sew
eral money orders and letters address
sed to students at Oahu College
The boy said in answer to questions
regarding the possession of the draft,
that his brother had given him the key
to the box BIB and he had admitted
extracting the letters, but was afraid
to have the drafts cashed.
To some one else he told another
story regarding the key, and added
that he had found the letters contain
ing the money orders The SUPPOSE
ton is that Solomon obtained the col
lege letters by passing his hand into
box BIB and reached the college box
in that way. AS the draft, letters and
money orders bear date March 5th i
is reasonable to suppose that he made
but one visit and that after the clerk!
had left the post Office for the night.
The boy admitted that the papers
were his and then lied about how they
came into his possession. Marsha

was re-engaged by the Toledo club for the
season of 1895, and showed a marked i'm
provement in his all around work especially
IN batting. He participated that year in one
hunufed ana twenty -four championship games
ana stood high both in batting and fielding in
the omclal averages of the Western league
In 1896 he was with the Minneapolis
team also of the Western league and his ex-
cellent work not only helped the Minneapolis
club to win the championship of the Western
League, but also to become the custodian of
The Detroit Free Press cup. During the
month OF August COnnors had a knee injured
and during his enforced absence Parker was
tried at second base, and afterward Pickett
whose release was purchased from the st
Paul Club. After Connors recovered he was
shifted to short stop, but on Sept % he was
returned to his home position, and he re-
NAMED there until the close of the cup series
with Indianapolis. Connors was credited
with a number OF fine fielding performances
during the past season. The most note
worthy OF these the accepting ali of
thirteen chances in one game three times all
OF eleven chances, and twice of all of ten
chances, while he was frequently credited
with accepting all of nine, eight and seven
chances to game. Some Of his best bat
ting teats were in three games against the
Columbus team, July 20, 81 %, at MINNEAPOLIS

in st. Paul in 1897, born May H. 1868 at
Fort Jervis, n. Y. but learned to play ball
at Danvers, Mass. His first professional en-
gagement was with the Portsmouth club of

with the Concord, n. H.. club in 1889. and
was engaged for the season of 1890 with the

league. lie was with the Manchester n H.

agement of the Joliet, ILL.,, club at the begin

brilliant showing that Manager Arson gave
him trial with the Chicagos during the lat
ter part Of that season; but a succession of
accidents disheartened him. and he lost con-
hdence in himself. In 1898 he Joined the
Atlanta club, OF the Southern league. and
his work was very praiseworthy. There were
no systematized averages officially made of
tie Southern league that year. The only cor
rect data presented the batting percent

more games during the first championship
