RUSSIA FEARS MosLEMs.
Great Unrest in Asiatic Provinces and an
Outbreak Imminent.

Outbreak Imminent.
Throughout Russian Asia there Is gen.
eral unrest among the Moslems. 1t is at
tributed to the exaggerated reports Of the
Turkish victory over the great Greek en-
pire," which have spread through the Con-
tinent. The authorities even fear that the
revival OF brigandage recently noticed IN
the Caucasus is directed almost solely
against the Government officials. inc
danger Is so serious that conference OF
Caucasian Governors has been convoked
to concert measures Of pacincation.
Travellers in Central Asia report an e3.
traordinary ferment among the Mosiems OF
different races. They are sinking their mu-
tual animosities and declaring that they
are first Of all Mahometans, with the sul-
tan as their common chief.
It Is evident that the slightest prete&t
would suffice to bring about an uprising
and to plunge Russia into the troubles
which have harassed India.

of about $50, 900 in the accounts OF Aims

fed at the sight of chorus girls in tights,
and he went back to his mountain home
convinced that the times needed a re-
former. He had no idea that "such
doin's were carried On in town." and
he thought they ought to be stopped.
Tt was not long after this that Mr..
Timberlake was elected to the state leg
islature, and the first thing he did when
he got to Montgomery was to draft
bill by which he proposed to regulate
and maintain a distinction of dress
among the sexes, so that no woman
shall be allowed to exhibit herself in
any public place, street or theater in
tights, boomers, shirt fronts or any
other form of apparel now commonly
worn by men or which has a tendency
to appeal to the passions of men,
Much to his surprise Mr.. Undertakes
bill was met by all sorts of ridicule
from the state press. But he was in
earnest and insisted on bringing his bill
before the house. His original inten-
ton was to deal only. with the abbrevi-
ated costumes worn by women on the
stage, but he expanded it SO as to in
clude the bloomer girls, of whose exist
ence he first learned when he came to
the state capital. The Timberlal1e bill
was read amid roars of laughter and re-
ferred to the temperance committee,
from which it came back with an ad-
verse report. Mr.. Timberlake was sur
prised, but announces his intention to
fight for the passage of the bill as long
as he is member of the legislature.

everything seems to go wrong, but there

there can be no possible time when man

ish the ONCE He Now Holds.
Astonishment and disgust-deep, soul
stirring disgust-has settled down on
the politicians of Wisconsin,, and all be-
cause E. @. Deane, who holds the Office
of deep waterways commissioner, a
much coveted job which pays So, 900 a
year, has announced that he will recon-
mend to the state Legislature that the
office be abolished Mr.. Deane says the
duties of the position are SO light that
he finds it impossible to earn his salary.
He says he has tried hard to find some
thing to do, but has failed. All he was
called upon to do last year was to write
a few letters and make one trip to Lake
Superior. He is convinced that the Office
is entirely unnecessary and he thinks
that it is an injustice to the taxpayers
to continue it.
Such a startling defiance of ancient
political traditions has astounded and
panied the politicians. No such case

of them could hardly believe that an

conditions.
Mr.. Deane, who has become famous
in such unique fashion, is 81 vars old
and a native of Boston He was formerly
cashier of the Union National bank of
Racine and owned controlling interest
in the Racine Journal. He is grand
commander OF the Knights Templars Of
Wisconsin and is a member of several
other secret organizations.
Mr.. Deane was appointed to the Office
which he now wants abolished by Gov

cure the appointment, but it was given
to him in spite of the fact that dozens
of politicians were eagerly seeking it at

THINK IT A JuNKET.
The House Does Not Favor a Joint
Railroad Committee.

The Kansas legislature recently re-
quested the legislatures of Oklahoma
and Texas to cooperate in formulating
a maximum freight and passenger rate
bill to avoid what are designated as'-the
present extortionate charges the main
purpose being to secure cheaper trans
pOrtatiOn of products to the gulf
The Oklahoma legislature acted i'm
mediately upon the suggestion and
named w. Christian, G. P. Perry, r. S.
Garrison. Governor Renfrow selected
r. B. Forrest and Attorney General c.
A. Gilbreath.
The announcement of the appointment
ceived by Governor Leedy who imme-
diately prepared message to the legis-
lature, enclosing the communication
and resolutions attached. He said: Il
would be glad if the legislature would
provide for the appointment of SINH
lar COMMITTEES from the state of Kan
SaS."
The investigation will not be made
because the Republicans aided by few
Populists killed the scheme.
Immediately after receiving the gov
errors message Senator LeWelling in
troduced concurrent resolution pro-
Vidlng for the appointment of COM
mlttee of one from the senate and two
from the house, to center with the Okla
homa and Texas committees, making a
report to the governor not later than
July 1, 1897, receiving for their services
81 per day and necessary travelling ex-
penses.
The resolution passed the senate but
failed in the house. Brown of Pratt,
moved to make it a committee of five.
This was defeated, and with it the mo-
ton by Mr.. LobdeII that two members
of the committee be Republicans Lob
de1'S motion was passed, then recon-
sidered, precipitating a debate which
finally destroyed the scheme for junk
