about IS. At that juncture there was
a report and a crash, and it was with
horror that the people on the shore and
on the ice saw that the field of ice had
parted from the shore and was rushing
with its human freight toward the open
lake and rapidly breaking up. The WO-
men and children who lined the shore
Wrung their hands and cried. men hur-
ried to procure life saving apparatus,
while the people who were being car
ried out into the lake signaled and
shouted themselves hOarse in ineffect-
ual attempts to make themselves heard
above the fury of the storm and the
crash of breaking ice. The scene was
one to appan the stoutest heart. A
great stretch of water interVened be-
tween the unfortunate people and the
shore on one side and on the other was
the angry waters of the lake laShed into
q sea of foam by the fury Of the storm.
A dozen small boats were speedily
manned and started to the rescue. Oc-
caSiOnally the people on shore would see
breaking of the ice. then a woman
would go down, and the spectators
would turn away sick with horror. The
reScuerS soon reached the floating field,
picked up man here and a woman
there until all those in the water had
been taken out, some of them being
pulled from the water as they We're go

The life servers proceeded to take the
people off the various small fields of

most frozen to death, were cared for in
houses near the beach. Not person

THE ICE PARTED.
200 Men and Women Narrowly
Escape Death.

Sandusky, Ohio, Jan. 24-Two hun
dred men and women narrowly escaped
drowning in the lake off Putin Bay
Saturday afternoon. The favorite oc-
cupation of the islanders during the
winter is fishing through the ice.
They place little houses over holes
cut in the ice and sitting in these struc-
lures beside a cheerful fire, men and
women make catches from the sale of
which each person averages from 81 to
So per day. These fishing houses off
Putin Bay numbered more than 100.
Now not a vestige of the fishing vii
lage remains. A fierce gale suddenly
swept across the lake, and in the twink
ling of an eye the fishing houses and
their occupants were blown helter
skelter Dozens of houses were over
turned and caught fire, the occupants
narrowly escaping being burned to
death in them, while other structures
were carried across the ice toward the
open lake, many of the occupants being
severely cut and bruised in their rough
fight Parties on the shore, realizing
the peril of the people on the ice, pre-
pared at once to go to their relief, es-
pecially of the women, who numbered

HAVE ENOUGH TO DO.
Commissioner Evans Thinks Postof-
fee Employees Have Little Time
for Pension Matters.

Washington. Jan 24.-In reply to a com
munication from First Assistant Post
master General Heath, enclosing a letter
from a western postmaster, Commissioner
Evans of the pension bureau expresses
the opinion that it would be proper for
postmasters TO refer letters in reference
to pension cases addressed to them to the
nearest special examiner. or to the COM
missioner of pensions if the address of the
examiner is not known
Mr. Evans says he appreciates the will
lingness manifested to assist worthy ap-
plicants in regard to obtaining informa-
ton relative to pension matters, but he
is of the opinion that every postofice en-
ploye's time is fully occupied in attend
ing to affairs coming entirely within the
province of the postoffce department and
he does not believe they should be bur
dened unnecessarily by matters coming
properly within the Jurisdiction of other
departments.

ministration will probably take in the
matter will be to enter into negotiaz
tions with Germany respecting the
treatment of American ships entering
Kiao Chou and such other ports in
China as may be seized in the future
by Russia or Japan.
If China has leased KiaO Chou on the
condition that it shall be opened by
Germany as a Chinese port, then it
will not be necessary for the president
to take the steps in the matter, said
an official of the administration 1T
will mean that the commerce of all ma
tions will be allowed unrestricted entry
thereto. If, as we believe, however
KiaO Chou should be leased to Ger
many without conditions, then Ger
many will have the right and will un-
doubtedly exercise it to put in opera
ton port and custom regulations such
as are now in force in German home
ports.
The United States cannot make OBJ
lection to the extension of such regula-
tions to Kiao Chou in such an event.
for it will be German soil to all in
tents and purposes as in Ham burg
However, the administration will ex-
pect from Germany any privileges that
may be granted by her to any other
nation, and will therefore reap the ad-
vantages which Great Britain's atti-
tude against the shutting of the Chi
nese door to the commerce of the world
will give. This is required in accord
ance with the articles of the treaty be-
tween Prussia and the United States
of May I, 1928, which provides: IF
either party shall hereafter grant to
any other nation any particular favor
of navigation or commerce, it shall i'm

public his impression of the republic In
which silver is the standard money.
Mr.. Bryan's statement has been pre-
pared with great care, and is as follows:
found:
First-That Mexico is a delightful
place to visit. Travel on the main
lines is as safe, as comfortable and as
cheap. as in the United States The
City of Mexico is within four days ride
of Kansas City and can be reached by
three routes. The Mexican National
leaves the Rio Grande at Laredo, the
International at Eagle Pass and the
Mexican Central at Ell Paso.
Second-That while our nation has
more inhabitants, covers more territory
and possesses greater wealth, we can
not surpass the Mexicans in hospitality
or in the courtesy which they extend to
strangers.
Third-That the Mexican authori-
ties entertain a very friendly feeling to-
ward the citizens of the United States
and heartily desire a continuation of
the amicable relations now existing be
tween the two nations.
FOurth-That Mexico is as firm as the
United States in the support of the
Monroe doctrine, having realized Ouly
thirty years ago the dangers attending
upon an attempt to extend monarch
icaI institutions upon the western hem
isphere.
Fifth-That President Diaz is entire
" deserving of the encOmiums be-
slowed upon him by his own people, by
resident Americans and by visitors.
derstandS the condition and needs Of
his people and has their confidence to
a degree seldom enjoyed by an execu-
tive either hereditary or elective. While
the advantages of a. stable government
are now so generally recognized that
his death would not disturb the existing
order of things, yet his qualifications
have been so amply proved and his ad-
rninistration so completely successful
that his people are unanimous in the
hope that he may yet enjoy many years
of official life.
Sixth-That the public men of Mex
leo are not inferior to our own in intel
ligence education and general infor-
nation. -Senor Mariscal, secretary of
foreign affairs, adds to great ability
long experience as a diplomat, and is
worthy of comparison with the pre-
Iniers of the leading nations of the
world. Senor Limantaur, secretary of
finance, is most accomplished gentle
man and has exhibited superior skill
in the management of the fiscal af-
fairs OF the republic. The other cabinet
officers, governors, members of the ma
tionaI and state congresses. mayors,
etc, whom met were, without excep-
ton, men of refinement and scholarly
attachments
Seventh-That the English language

mediately become common to the other
party, freely where it is freely granted
to such nation or yielding the same
compensation when the grant is con-
ditiona1."
Attaches of the Chinese legation are
naturally very much pleased at the
attitude assumed by Great Britain, as
they appreciate that she will have the
moral influence of the United States
and other nations trading with China,
which have no territorial designs on
the celestial empire. The policy which
Great Britain has inaugurated means
they feel confident of the continued in
tegrity of the Chinese government.

during that time a child was born of
which George Clark was the father.
After coming to California to live at
and near st. Helena, Napa county,
Mrs. Clark professed Christianity and
attempted to break off relations with
her brother-in-law, but he persisted in
his attentions. At times he asked her
if she would live with him in case of
her husbands death. Last month he
put Strychnine in his brothers coffee on
two occasions, but the brother detected
the poison and had the coffee analyzed
by a druggist. Then on Thursday
morning, George Clark lay in wait for
his brother and shot him while he was
preparing breakfast in the kitchen of
his St. Helena home.
The murderer was brought to Napa.
On Saturday Mrs. Clark told at the in
quest the story of her relations with her
brother-in-law, and he was finally in
duced to make a full confession, the de-
tails of which do not differ materially
from the facts of the crime already re-
ported and confirmed by the state
ments of Mrs. Clark.

Napa, Cal, Jan. 24.-In the presence
of the sheriff and district attorney of
Napa county and of six other Witness

that he was the murderer of his brother
w A Clark, at st. Helena, on last
Thursday. Mrs. Levina Clark was mar
ried to VIM. A. Clark more than twenty
years ago in Clay county, Illinois. She
is 46 years old and the mother of seven
children.
George w. Clark, the murderer, be-
came intimate with her thirteen or
fourteen years ago. Their relations
continued while the husband was in
California making a home for her, and
