their little toes burnt TO a beauti-
ful brown. The Mena Daily News
has been in existence for about a
year and has been in various hands,
not excepting the sheriff Of Polk
county. Charlie Shankle, an eI-
pert newspaper doctor sat up with
the News for the past six months
and labored to keep it going, but
financially pronounced the case too
far gone to doctor longer, and he
left the patient for dead, but we
have on our table the recussitated
paper, and find at the masthead the
name of R. G.. Shaver, jr., who says
he will give the paper nourishment
of the right kind and make it sing
a different song from the one we
have heard from it all the time.
Well, if the new hand can Shaver
down the expenses and get a big
announcement column started, he
may put the paper through and
finally place it on the top round of

titnde of people and the blasts of hun
dreds of whistles. Miss Nancy Letter,
sponsor for the Illinois, accompanied by

ment came Miss Letter poised the gaily
decorated bottle of champaign in her
right hand, and as the big ship moved
slowly toward the river, cast it against
the recedfng bow. Cheer after cheer
went I'D from the crowd whose shouts al
most drowned the noisy welcome to the
newcomer sounded by the whistles in the

NO EXCITEMENT AT PEKIN.

Pekin. October 3.-De1ayed in trans
mission.) There is an entire absence OF
excitement here now that he feast is over
and the streets are as quiet as those of
London.
The decision OF the Russian legation to
increase the strength of its escort or guard
is calculated to have an injurious effect
In keeping up the excitement. This step
has obliged the British minister to follow
suit and detachment of British marines
has been ordered to the capital for the
protection OF the legation of Great
Britain.
The place where a number of Europeans
were recently insulted has been roped
of, ana inside Of 1t, the eight offenders
have been placed wearing heavy, cangues
inscribed punished for assaultlng
Europeans"
The Chinese foreign Office has amply
apologized for the occurrence and severa!
regiments are held In readiness IN case OIL
disorders.
Yuan Sheng has been appointed mem
ber of the Tsung Lii Yamen. This ap-.
poin tment is interesting because he is OF
the Chinese and not of the Manchu race.
Well informed people here differ as to
whether Ii Hung Chang will return to
power. but the absence of news from the
place, leads to the assumption that the
power of the dowager empress is defnite-
ly ISSUED.
Further changes are improbable as the
emperor is now reduced to state of
tutelage.
The banishment Of Chang Yin Huan is
considered an excessive punis hment.

vices from Shanghai, the Pekin corre-
spondent of the Mercury OF that city as
serts that the Emperor of China intend
cd to remove the Empress Dowager from
his path and entrusted his plans to an
adherent. The latter proved traitor.
The Empress Dowager, on learning of the
plot, sternly upbraided the Emperor and
invited him to drink the contents OF
cup, to which she pointed. He swal-
lowed the fluid at gulp. "a
1t is impossible, however, according to
this correspondent to ascertain whether
the Emperor is alive or dead.

Maine Lumbermen's and Land Owners
association was held here this afternoon
to take action to encourage the Ameri-
can commissioners in Quebec. to retain
the duty On lumber as in the Dingley
bill. The following resolutions were un-
animously adopted and were sent to
Senator Fairbanks, chairman:
Resolved. That the Maine Lumber
mems and Land Owners association en-
phatically protests against any action
being taken by the American commits
sioners now in session at Quebec, looking
to the reduction of the duty upon Can
adian lumber, believing that such a
course would be unfair and unjust dis
elimination against the lumber industry
would destroy and Indefinitely postpone
the long looked for revival of this busi-
ness and would be in direct opposition
to the declared policy of the republican
party and to the letter and spirit of the
Dingley bill as enacted.
