Valuable Property Involved-An I'm
portant Suit.
Amesbury, Mass March 24-Hon
Calvin Page of Portsmouth, N. H., has
been retained as counsel by the Misses
Miller of New Haven, Conn, who are
contesting for the estate of the late
Simon P. Towle, at Hampton, N. H.
One hundred acres of the most valuable
land of the town are at stake. On this
land are three churches the Hampton
company's shoe factory and nine dwell
ings. The owners of these have been
requested to pay for their sites over
again, as the Misses Miller claim that
the purchase by these people of Mr.
Towle was not legal, as he only held
the property in trust. Counsel state
that they will bring the matter into the
New Hampshire courts if payment is
not made for the lands. Some $50, 900
is involved. Hon Charles Lamprey of
Hamilton is executor of the Towle es-
tate.

THE FOnBEARANCE OF THE JAP.
ASESE,

IT Is said that no people In the world
than the Chinese, and yet q revolt Is
something never attempted in that
country. The secret of the hatred Is
that the Government is Manchu and
not Chinese, and the mass Of the peo-
pie would like TO drive the rulers out
the subject declares that "the Govern
mcnt Is we'll aware OF the feelings Of
the people, and has ,tely, in giving
concessions, ETC., made 1t It's business
to impress upon those receiving these
concessions the fact that they are only
good during the continuance of the
present dynasty, becoming valueless
with a change OF dynasty, thus, as 1t
were, attempting to prop the relgning
house on foreign bayonets."
The same writer asserts that no other
reason can be adducrd for the forbear-
ance of the japanese In not forcing
their way ITO and into Pekin, which
lay completely at their mercy during
the late war. than their fear that the
Manchu dynasty would be driven out,
and of the introduction of European
supremacy, which would threaten them
more than their Asiatic neighbor.
This has been asserted before, and
probably is one. If not the main, rea-
son why Japan did not go to Pekin
when she had China practically at her
mercy. Recent events, however, dem
onstrate that 1t is not altogether un-
likely that European supremacy may
he introduced in Chinese affuirs with
out Japan's sanction, and possibly 1t
would have been better had she
marched straight to Pekin and estab-
lished herself when she had the ID
tunity to do SO, an opportunity now for
ever passed.
The belief Is strong that the fate
which awaits China is to be that which
befell Poland, and that the recent ac-
ton OF Russia and Germany, and the
still more recent declaration OF Italy,
that she must support those powers in
their curse in China, is but a move
ment in the direction Of a dismember.

truth In all Of this, though possibly
roughly expressed, and If needed man
kind would be the better for it. "Of
the human flowers how few success

to take for a watchword through life
