STREETS NOT SAFE FOR WOMEN

Lady Aberdeen to Deliver Ora
ton in Chicago-GreeCe May
be Blockaded.

ST. LOUIS, Mar. 5.-A special to the
Globe-Democrat from Guadalajara,
Mexico says:
Almost a warlike spirit is aroused
among the people of Mexico by the
coming of Messrs. Bruce, Stone and
Pierce, of Boston, to enter into nego-
tiations with the Mexican Govern
ment for the return of the flags cap
tured by the MeXicans.
In the most incendiary language the
people go so far as to demand of the
United States at the canno's mouth, if
necessary, the return of all territory
taken from Mexico. They specify Cal
ifornia, Colorado, Nevada, Utah, Ari-
IONA, New Mexico and Texas as prop
erty stolen from this country.
So strong is the sentiment against
Americans that ladies are openly in
suited on the streets and in stores, and
if thier escorts resent the offense, they
are dragged off to Jail and fined.

MORE JAPANESE
Large Number from Sa.
kura Maru.
All Free LaborerS Examination
Yesterday-No Informatio
as to Result.

The steamship Sakura- Maru, which
arrived off port on Friday, has on
board 317 japanese free laborers, and
for the purpose of ascertaining wheth-
er they are eligible to land here, they
were subjected to a rigid examination
yesterday. Port Surveyor Stratemey-
er conducted for the Custom House,
and Alex. ST. Martin Macintosh of
the Foreign Office, Mr.. Weaver, stem
ographer for w. R. Castle, attorney,
and Chester A. Doyle, official inter
prefer, were sworn in as clerks.
The investigation began on the
steamer, Captain Brady and the purser
lending every possible assistance to
the officers in their work AS the ships
papers regarding the immigrants, tai
lied exactly with the passports of the
men, the officers left for the quaran-
tine station to question the passengers.
Up to p. m, when the investigation
closed for the day, having continued
since a. m, but 80 of the passengers
had been examined. No information
could be obtained as to the status of
the men. the Department refusing TO
report until the work was completed.
At 6 o'clock this morning the eX-
aminers will begin another session,
which will continue until the balance
of the cases have been investigated.
1t is understood that any of the i'm
migrants not legally entitled to land
ing here, will be put aboard the steam
er TO be returned TO Japan. This is
found necessary from the fact that the
steamer will not stop here on her re-
turn trip from Seattle. The steamer is
in excellent condition in point of
cleanliness, and the officers very diff
eTent in character from those on the
Shinshiu-M -Maru. 1t was learned from
one of them that steamer with 400
Japanese passengers for Honolulu, is
now on the way here from Japan.

A WOMAN ORATOR.

Lady Aberdeen to Take Part in
Commencement Exercises.
For the first time in the history of
university life in America, and prob
ably in the world, says the st. Louis
lobe-Democrat, woman is to be the
convocation orator at the commence
ment exercises of great university.
1t is announced by President Harper
of the University of Chicago that Lady
Aberdeen, wife of the Governor of Can
ada is to have this honor at the com
mencement exercises of the university,
April 1.
Lady Aberdeen is a polished orator
and somewhat of a politician. She has
made many successful political speech
es in behalf of her husband, through
of which her husband was Viceroy, she
used her utmost eXertions toward in
creasing the scope of Irish industries.
She opened many channels of employ
ment for the women of Ireland, and
was the prime mover in getting up the
Irish village and fine exhibit of Irish
women's handiwork at the Worlds
Fair. She has also taken leading role
in philanthropy in Canada, and is very
popular there.
Nor are her sympathies confined to
the inhabitants of the right little,
tight little isle and its dependencies.
She is interested in the women of the
United States, and very liberal in her
sentiments, as was shown in her adj
dress before the Woman's Federation,
when she spoke of Britain's folly in
1776 and expressed a wish that Eng
land and America could stand side
by side as Gods chosen servants in the
cause of humanity She is also
worker in the cause of temperance,
and was one of the prominent partfci
pators in the convention of the Worlds
Woman's Christian Temperance Asso-
citation in London in 1895.
The home life of this earnest woman
is as admira BILE as her public life. 1t is
said that never perhaps were husband
and wife more thoroughly in sympa-
thy Lady Aberdeen is very unpreten-
tious in dress and manner. She accom-
plishes all her charities quietly, is do
mestic in her tastes and thoroughly
devoted to her children.

The West Virginia University.
Review of Reviews.

A notable educational event last
month was the inauguration on Oct.
IA, of Jerome II. Raymond, as Presi-
dent of the West Virginia University,
at Morgantown. The occasion was
participated in by large number Of
the most distinguished educators in
the country. DR.. Raymond who goes
TO West Virginia from Professorship
in the University of Wisconsin, Is
only twenty-eight years old, but he
already has an educational career OF
remarkable brilliancy. He was born
in Iowa, was making his living as
stenographer at st. Paul at thirteen,
and was private secretary to the late
George A. Pullman by the time he
had reached his eighteenth year.
Then he determined to go through
college, and became a student at
Northwestern University, at Evans
ton, where he graduated. Next he
pursued postgraduate studies at sew
eral American universities, and re-
ceiyed the degree Of PHI. ID. from the
University OF Chicago. He has man
aged to travel and study extensively
in Europe and the Orient, and in the
past three or four years, at the Uni
versity of Chicago, and at the Univer-
sity of Wisconsin he has shown him
self not only brilliant scholar and
teacher, but remarkable organizer
Of university extension work. West
Virginia has at once adopted DIR.
Raymond with enthusiasm, and is
evidently going to allow him to intro
duce more than one innovation. To
begin with, the West Virginia Uni
yersity will follow the example of the
University Of Chicago, in keeping its
work running the entire year under
the four-term system. Further than
that, it will follow the example of the
Universities of Chicago and Wiscon-
sin in giving instruction by cores
pondence. Most interesting perhaps
of all, is the announcement that the
University at Morgantown will soon
be surrounded by system of
church halls. The Episcopal hall has
already been established by Bishop
Peterkin, and the Baptists have also
domiciled themselves similarly 1t is
understood that the Presbyterians
and Methodist Protestants have taken
the initial steps in the same direc-
tion. The prospect, therefore, is for
the development of a very important
educational center in West Virginia.

Sentence Suspended.

Yesterday at Pittsburg, Judge Jo-
seph Burlington suspended sentense in
the case of James Y. Protzman who
was charged with having used the
mails for purposes of fraud. The
charges were not nearly so bad as first
reports of the trouble had led people
to expect.
Protzman hailed from Morris X
Roads, and had always borne a splen-
did reputation. The Judge was large
ly influenced in his decision by this
fact The prosecution did not urge
the case and all the circumstances
were such that extreme forbearance
was in order.
He is now at his home, and the in
dications are that the lesson will
prove most beneficial to him. The
one false step will not cause his
friends to desert him, but has gained
for him many new ones. We are glad
the escapade has not resulted any
more seriously.

Long, a base ball rustler, and $. T.
Anderson, the proprietor of the drug
store, for incendiarism. Anderson
is from Rock Hill, S. c., and Long
from Benezette, Pa Long confessed
that Anderson had punched small
hole in the bottom of kerosene oil
tank in the wareroom where the fire
originated, had set candle, which,
by careful experiment he had timed
to set on fire an oiled string running
to the oil and to some oiled excelsior
and ignite the combustibles at about

WHY, MR. PETERS.
We Thought Better Of You Than This!
New York Preacher Steals
an Grafton.

Another clerical plagiarist has
been unearthed. This time it is the
Rev Madison G. Peters, a well known
pulpit orator and pastor of the Bloom
ingdale Reformed church. Peters de-
livered glowing Grafton, on the
death of Henry George. 1t is found
to be almost identical with an Grafton
on the death of Alexander Hamilton,
delivered by Rev. Eliphat Mott, pres
ident of Union college, SO years ago
This episode is liable to make as
much talk as when Rev DIR. Morgan
cribbed from s'Quaint old writer, "
two years ago.
DIR. Peters, when his attention was
drawn to the similarity of his grafton
and that of DR.. Not's, admitted they
were much alike, but said his grafton
was spontaneous and he must have
used the ideas, words and phrases of
the eulogy on Hamilton unconscious
,ly. Rev. DR.. Morgan attributed his
slip to unconscious celebration A
comparison of the orations on George
indicates that Dr. Peters has this
mental popularity highly developed.

Washingt0n's tniatials.

The low water has brought out
plainly the remains of the old Indian
rock which is at the south side of
Buffalo creek, where it enters the
river at Wellsburg. 1t is now almost
gone. Years ago it had on its surface
many Indian hieroglyphics, and the
iniatials sc. W." which used to be
ascribed to the father of his country,
since he made two trips down the
river from Pittsburg, once in 1853,
and again shortly after the revolution.
The hieroglyphics possibly indicated
the startling point of the Indian path
from the Ohio toward Redstone on the
Monongahela, distant so miles by the
way of Catfish Camp, where Washing
ton now stands, that was an old es-
tablished trail The marks were Wis
ible only at very low water and they
may have had some reference to this
fact. Wheeling News.

The Mfnstrels Last Night.

A large audience witnessed Leon
w. Washburn's Minstrels last night
in Music Hail. The ''first part" was
extremely well staged and presented
a pleasing appearance to the eye. The
jokes were up to the average, the
singing far above Especially fine
was Hessrs Williams, Hillman, Paul
and Floyd who constituted "The
Acme Quartette." The local hits
made by Sam Horner were well re-
ceived. Their drill corps executed
their evolutions in manner which
showed much hard practice. Berry
and Huges in their musical speciali-
ty were encored several times. and
not undeservedly. One of the best
Aerial knock-a bout acts ever pro
duced here was that of Martin and
lie Clair on the flying trapeze. The
eight invincibles introduced all the
latest Buck and Wing dances. The
performance closed with nine pic
lures shown by the Bioscope. This
machine is quite an improvement on
the "cinegraph'' seen here last year.
The Black Diamond express was
their best. The MINISTRIES as whole
gave entire satisfaction and will re-
ceive hearty welcome were they to
return.
