SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. IA dispatch
from ApiG, Samoa, says:
Considerable excitement was created
here on November 10Th, by the landing
of party blue jackets from British and
German ships. While no serious troub-
le is anticipated at present, the repre-
sentatives of the powers thought it wise
to make demonstration, owing to the
number of natives who have congregated
at Mulinuu, so as to show that the pow

residents. The party. landed at Mautu
and marched through the town headed by
German band from the Buzzard with
drum and fife corps from the H. M. S.
Porpoise. After making a display to the
natives, both parties returned to their
respective ships.
The chiefs supporting Mataafa have
notified the chief justice that they have
elected Mataafa as king of Samoa, and
that protest has been entered by GER

that Mr.. Hermann's chances are the
batter. There is no representative in
tine cabinet from the Pacific coast, and
on account of the vote of Oregon in the
recent elections it is thought highly
probable that the president will confer
the Office of secretary of the interior
upon Mr.. Hermann.

valuable campaign service in many
states, for which the president feels very
grateful.

The present cold wave is one of the

Miss Alta Rockefeller. an heiress to

young lady of energy and accomplish

having learned to manipulate the ma

The late Mr.. Barney Barnato, the
diamond king. whose personal posses
sions ran into several dozen millions,
went out to Africa with his brother
while he was quite lad, and the two.
then penniless youths, who returned
millionaires, knew what 1t was TO
suffer the pinch of poverty. In their
early days in South Africa, the broth
ers used to turn an honest penny now

tricks In public.
The Khedive Ismail was one of the

private intimations from Constantine

Active preparations are being made
among the mail clerks to petition Con.
gress for better protection. Those who
have the matter in charge are consid-
ering various suggestions that may take
the form of recommendations. One re
form that will probably be asked Is that
the mail coaches be placed after in
through baggage coach, which is usual
ly unoccupied by baggagemen while
the train is In motion, TO take the place
next the engine, now Invariably as

probable that the government will be
asked to supply its own ears and to
make them of Steel and without plat

to lessen the danger to these clerks, who
are of so much service to the public In

RAILWAY MAIL CLERKS.
Their Hazards Greater than Any Other
Class of Public Employees.

The remarkable number of fatalities
among railway mail clerks in recent
wrecks calls fresh attention to the ex-
treme hazards taken by these public
servants. 1t is claimed by those who
have taken some pains to gather sta
tistics that the death rate Is greater in
proportion to numbers than in actual
warfare. This seems almost incredible,
yet 1t is apparent TO every one who in
vestigates that of all the positions in

Blind PeODle.

So far as the most recent statistics
go. the known proportion of blind peo-
pie is about one in fifteen hundred.
which would give total of one million
blind in the world. The largest pro-
portion is found In Russia, which has
in Europe 100000 blind in population
of 96 millions, or one in 4SO. Most OF
these are found in the northern prov
inces of Finland, and the principal
cause is ophthalmia, due TO the bad
ventilation of the huts of the peasantry
and the inadequate facilities for treat
ment. There is great deal of blind
ness In Egypt due TO blowing sand.
