LITERATURE INCITING THEIR
HATRED CIRCULATING BY
THE WHOLESALE.
Says The British Are Depressing
The Natives, And Are LOOting
Their Temples Under The
PretenSe Of Stamping
Out The Plague

New York, July 6.-The Herald today
says:
The anti-British feeling in India Is
partly due to INSCRIPTIONS agitators,
who by means of seditious leaflets,
both in English and the native vernac-
ular, circulated in Poonah, Bombay
and at other points, have melted fam
atics to vengeance against individuals
and to attempt a revolt against the
government.
A dispatch to the London Mail from
Bombay gives the substance OF one of
these pamphlets, which is signed
Three Hundred Millions of Human
Beings" After referring to the APP
proach of the jubilee festivities, it re-
viles the queen and the government
and appeals to the civilized nation of
the world Ito hear the cry of oppress-
ed Indians living in slavery" declaring
that there are millions of their breth-
rem who are more entitled to their con-
sideration that the inhabitants either
Of Greece or Of Asia Minor.
1t asserts that needless apathy for
the sufferings Of the people has been
shown by the invading Of Zenanas and
the pollution of temples and mosques
under the pretext of operations for
suppressing the plague and continues
as follows:
Not even a demon would venture to
celebrate his conquests in a time of
famine, plague and earthquake. An
incident and noble nation is being kill
ed by a Christian government. Will
none lift finger to check the excuses
of the English tyrants who have been
riding over US rough shod for more
than a century,"
The Times, of India, referring to the
Poonah attacks, says that the facts are
Inconsistent with the theory that the
outrage was actuated by private re-
venge. The Journal continues as fol-
lows:
1.-The fact that the perpetrators nurs-
ed vengeance so long after the plague
operations had been concluded, defer
ring the blow until the jubilee, think
ing 1t would be delivered with telling
effect, argues a political conception Of
which common criminals would be in
capable"

THE c. E. RUSH.

San Francisco, Cal, 6.-After a days
rest, committees of the local Christian
Endeavor organization assumed their
labors preparatory to receiving and en-
PERTAINING their Vulnerable guests who
are now en- route to San Francisco.
Secretary Baer, after experimenting
the arrangements at the pavilion, said
that he was immensely pleased with all
that had been done. He had attended
several national conventions, but never
had a local committee done more ex-
cellent service than that of San Fran
cisco.
While there are 900 carloads of En-
deavorers on the road between this
city and Ogden, the railroad officials
are unable to state definitely when
they will reach here, but have promised
to accommodate the visitors by arrang-
ing that no, trains shall arrive later
than IL o'clock at night or earlier than

CYRENE'S APPEARANCE.


Enthusiastically Received in this City
Last Night,
A crowd of about 1000 people greet
ed the celebrated Cuban skirt dancer
and wire walker, Cyrene, upon her first
appearance in this city in Scheuer-
meyers park last night and from the
amount of liberal applause she received
the audience was extremely well
pleased.
She began her performance with a
very difficult Spanish dance which was
executed in the most approved style
and which elected hearty applause.
This was followed by a Grecian dance
equally as difficult to perform, Cuban
Irritation dance and an original dance,
which closed her dancing exhibition.
She is indeed remarkable perform
er and dances in that style of ease
and grace which characterizes good
dancing and which always pleases the
audience no matter how critical. With
her performance last night no one
could have found any fault. so well
were the various evolutions executed.
f1ST COSTUME was very pIGlly anu uC-
coming and of the finest fabrics.
At the conclusion of her dancing per-
Torrance she repaired to her dressing
room where she donned a beautiful
street costume and returned to the
stage and mounted slack wire where
she exhibited her skill as performer
on this delicate article stretched in
mid air. After performing various
slSillful feats she removed her hat and
other out side garments while stand
ing on the wire and performed on it
in a beautiful acrobatic costume even
blindfolding herself and walking back
and forth. She then replaced her
street costume without getting off the
wire and concluded the performance
by executing feat that no other wom-
an is ever known to have accomplish
ed-that of putting her hat on without
the aid of a mirror.
Cyrene is Cuban by birth and is
very charming conversationalist,
speaking Snglish very fiuently and cor
rectly. She has danced herself twice
around the globe and is on her third
tour She has just closed an engage
ment in New Orleans and is on her
way to San Francisco to fill her sixth
engagement there. She only stopped
over here for the benefit of the health
of an invalid brother.
A pleasing part of the performance
was the singing of various popular
coon songs by Miss Lizette Selair,
which were heartily applauded and
thoroughly appreciated by the audi
ence.
The street car service to and from
the grounds was excellent, Superinten-
dent Wakefield running cars every ten
minutes. The performance will con-
tinue nightly for two weeks.

An American Woman Assaulted and
the Blue Jackets Retaliate.
Vancouver, b. c., July 6.-Latest
mail advices from Honolulu, say Miss
Nellie West, an American lady was
severely beaten by two japanese mar
ines from the warship Naniwa recent
ly. while trying to assist her brother,
who had been set upon by a number
of warsmen from the japanese navy.
She was confined to her bed next morn
ing and unable to appear against her
assailants in Police court, where they
were charged with assault and bat
terry. Feeling here runs high over
the matter. Well known business men
knocked down three Naniwa sailors
on the street the following morning in
consequence, while American Blue
Jackets went hunting for the ringlea-
ders of the Japanese who made the as
sault. One who was pointed out to
them as being guilty, was so severely
beaten by them, his life row depends
on the result of a delicate operation.

Child Holds Balloon Rope, Is Carried
in the Air and Dropped to
His Death.
San Francisco, July 6.-Bertram Hill,
the six-year-old son of Chauncey Hill,
an architect, was the victim of esn-
sational balloon accident. In company
with Miss Olney, daughter of his guar
dian, he went to Blair's park, near
Oakland, to witness the hot air balloon
ascension by Charles Conlan, of the
Acme Athletic club. When the balloon
shot into the air, the child chung to one
of the guy ropes and was carried aloft.
The aeronaut heard the shouts OF the
people not to cut loose the parachute
and obeyed, not knowing the reason.
When a thousand or more feet in the
air he heard the boys cries and saw
a cap fluttering down. He called out
to his unseen companion to hold on
and made every effort to save him,
but in vain for soon the child's body
shot by him and was crushed out
of shape when it struck the earth.

New York July ga dispat


New York July GA dispatch to
the World from London, says:
William Astor is indignant because
his paper, the Pail Mall Gazette, was
omitted from the invitation list for the
Queens party at Windsor Castle Sat-
urday to members of the House of
Commons and their wives. The Ga
zette therefore boycotts the entertain
ment, exclaiming:
I'VE have to apologize to our read
ers for the absence of any account of
what must have been a most interest
ing function, but as We did not see it
we cannot describe it."
No London evening paper was in
vited and all are irritated at the slight,
but the Pail Mall Gazette is the only
one that makes it's chargin public.
Society is hugely tickled by joke
on the Duke of Portland, master of the
horse in the Queens household. At
this party all of the officials of the
Queens household were attired in roy
al livery. A Welsh radical member
mistaking the Duke of Portland for an
ordinary turnkey, asked him the way
to the refreshment room. The Duke
courteously led the Welsh member
there, and the latter to attest his APP
probation of his civilty, pressed a
shilling into the Dukes hand. The
Duke, somewhat surprised, diplomatic
cally rose to the situation by passing
the fee on to waiter, saying: This
gentleman wishes you to have this
shilling"
Another members of parliament who
had watched the scene told the Welsh
radical the rank of the supposed fun
Key who happens to be one of Eng
lands -millionraires. The Duke
tells the story on himself with great
gusto.

ABOUT VAUDEVILLE SALARIES.
The Managers Expenses Are Less
Than For Regular Drama.

writer In the Philadelphia Times, "wonder
