London June 23.-In the Bow Street
police court today John Trodd, who
shot Count Won Arco-Valley, the nrst
secretary Of the German embassy here,
"a the latter was emerging from the en-
bassy on the evening Of June 10, was
committed for trial. Trodd made a
rambling statement to the effect that
the German, American and French ma
tions had hypnotically influenced him
and pestered him with accusations. He
was not sure, he said, whether Irish
Americans were not also guilty OF ac-
cusations started some years ago by
former United States Consul General
Patrick A. Collins, who was supported
by Germans the latter being among MS
first accusers AS the home office mac
refused to assist him, Trodd said ne
thought that he would be justified ir
taking the law into his own hands
which, he added, would be a lesson te
Germans not to interfere with the Eng

Americans Have no Opposition
in Landing at Baquiri- lone
Man Wounded. 4
Easy as Anything.

BA1QuIR, Harbor, Wednesday.-At
5 o'clock this afternoon 5000 American
soldiers are encamped in the hills and
10000 more are resting on their arms
aboard the Transports.
5000 Cuban insurgents did their share
of the work of protecting the landing.
The town was set on fire this morning
by the Spaniards who left hurridly at
the approach of the Americans.
Two sharp explosions were heard in
the town which was the result of the
Spaniards having set fire to large
quantity of ammunition slowed there.
A little before 9 o'clock the lombard
ment of the batteries at Garague began
as fcint to cover the real point of at
tack.
The scene shifted again at 9.4O to
Baiquiri, when the New Orleans opened
fire, followed by the Detroit, Wasp,
Machia and Suwanee amid the wild
ch eering of the troops.
In five minutes the sea all about was
alive with boats headed for the dock
and carrying soldiers in fighting trim
and eager for the fray.
The soldiers had with them each
three days rations, shelter tent, gun
and 200 cartridges.
The firing Of the warships was need
less as the shots were not returned anc
no Spaniard made himself visible.
A detachment of the eighth regular
infantry was the first to land and they
were quicklyItollowed by the First, ,Twen
} ty Fifth, Twenty Second, Tenth, Seventh
, and Twelfth. with the Second Massachu
setts and detachment Of the Ninth Caval
ry.-
The troops answered TO the asscmbl.
when they had all reached the pier wher
they quickly formed and marched rapid
: ly away.
Every point is carefully guarded a
night. The town was deserted whe'
the landing was effected but later tn
G women and children came home from
IL the thickets where they had been in hid
s ing.
The landing was accomplished wit
no loss of life. The only casualty WI;
- the accidental wounding of one insul
" gent by the explosion of a shell fro'
I'd our ships. This man will probably los
e. his arm as result.

Nicholas is Friendly
Russia's Car Sends Kindly
Greeting by Cassini.
New ambassador Talks.
Says He Does Not Think the
Bear Will Look With an
Unfriendly Eye on Our
Possession of the
Philippines.

Washington, June 23-The new RUS
sian ambassador, Count Casslnl' VIII os
formally received by President Mckln-
ley within day or two. The coming
Of the ambassador at this time, when
Europe Is keenly alert to the progress
of the war, excites more than ordinary
interest, for 1t Is known that he brings
a message Of the heartiest good Will on
the part of the Russian government ana
one making 1t quite evident that tne
long existing friendship between Russia
and the United States will not be shak-
en- by the events Of the war.
When seen at the Russian embassy
the ambassador expressed bis satisfac-
ton at having the opportunity OF re-
newing at this juncture the cordial SEN
timents which have so long existed IN
Russia toward the United States. he
said he was authorized to give this sem
timent the fullest and most positive ex-
preston. The sympathies between the
two countries have become traditional,
ne said and at no time was the feeling
more hearty than at present.
Russia and the Philippines.
Count Cassini was asked whether
Russia looked with apprehension upon
the American occupation Of the Philip
pine islands He replied that Russia
was naturally deeply concerned IN any
movement affecting the great problem
of the far east. The Philippines were
to some extent part, or an outpost,
of the far east, and who was to control
them II they passed out Of the control
of Spain was of interest and Importance
to Russia.
But, so far as Russia herself was con-
cerned, Count Cassini said that her
sphere OF activity was confined to the
far east proper and not to the Philip
pines and other outlying islands, when
could have only an indirect and remote
influence in the development OF the east
In response to an inquiry as to wheth-
er Russia was likely, alone or with oth-
er powers, to look with disfavor upon
the control of the Philippines by the
United States the ambassador said that
he did not apprehend any change in the
present good relations between the
United States and Russia. He added
however, that it seemed to be quite un-
desirable that the possession Of the
Philippines should pass into the hands
of England as that would seriously dis
turb the equilibrium in the far east.

A little episode in a street car illus
trates peculiar condition Of society In
the average American city. The car was
humming along through the upper part
Of town. 1t was a rainy night and the
car was Allied. AT every street corner
women were crowding In, laden with
water-soalSed bundles and all looking
! more or less bedraggled and out, OF
sorts. At Main and Mohawk streets a
smnrt-looking, welldressed young
woman entered the car, and stood hang
ing TO the straps. Directly In front OF
her sat a sad-faced but very respecta-
ble-looking young man. He looked up
at the young woman, but gave no indi-
cation that he intended to give his seat
Ito her. One by one the men had SUR
rendered their seats to the women nn-
til only two or three men remained
sitting. Standing next to the, smart
young woman was another young man,
evidently a man of position, who. knew
her. AS the car rushed along toward
Cold Spring the smart young woman
swung about on the straps and showed
signs OF weariness. Stu the young
man In front Of her made no motion
toward surrendering his seat.
'sOh, I'm so tired; it seems as though
I would drop down." she said to the
young man standing by her side. OF
course, that was too much for her gall
liant friend. and, STOPPING over, he said
TO the sad-faced young man sitting
down: Ny friend, would you have the
kindness to give this young lady your
seat; she Is very tired?" s..;
The sad-faced young man folded hia
arms resolutely and replied: 'No. ]
viii not have the kindness to give this
young woman my seat. Last Monday
morning she took my place In Blank 8
Co.'s as bookkeeper, because she would
work for three dollars week less than
I was getting. II she can take my place
In business she must take my place In
the street car. I have wife and little
baby starving at home. have been
tramping the streets all day trying to
find work. am tired, too.''
Everybody In the car turned to listen
to the sad-faced young mans words.
They were very earnest. The smart
young woman turned with sneer and
looked into the face Of the young man
who stood beside her. Nothing more
was said.--Buffalo News.

winter I'm the Klonaike.

An idea of the kind of weather that
the gold hunter OF the Klondike must
face In winter may be gathered from
meteorological records made on the
Upper Yukon In the season OF 18so-sf.
From the end of October a steady fall
of temperature set In and in December
the thermometer touched 67 degrees
Fahrenheit below zero! This was the
lowest, the record for January being Al
degrees, for February 58 degrees and
for March 43 degrees below zero. Dur
ing the last-named month the long cold
was broken. but the lee did not start In
the Yukon until the middle Of May, and
for several weeks thereafter foating lee
prevented the navigation Of the river

sea Shells That Explode.

A contributor describes the curious
phenomena of explosive sea shells. He
says: Walking along the beach on Mo-
bile bay, young woman, relative OF
the writer, picked up handful Of little
shells, left Ly the tide, and among them
were several shells of small marine
"snail,s the largest of which was prob
ably half inch In diameter and the
smallest some three-eights Of an inch.
She dropped them into her pocket and
forgot oil about them until several days
afterward, when an unpleasant odor,
in her. wardrobs attracted her attention
TO them. On taking them out Of her
pocket some fell on the floor, and In re-
covering them she placed her foot on
one. The act was followed by an ex-
plosion, quite SHARP. and loud enough
to bs heard all over the door on which
her.room Is. Astonished, she concluded
TO try another, and the same result fol-
lowed. The shells were then brought to
the writer, who on examination found
the Anouth of each rnlyrclosed by q
membrane of greater d less thickness,
formed by the drying of the animal
slime. This had probably occurred
soon after remoyak from the moisture
OF the beach, and the little inhabitants
OF the shell dying, the gases OF decom-
position had quite hlled itsasintsgnal
apnce. On exerting d little pressure
by squeezing the shell between two
blocks of wood quite loud explosion
was produced, the fragments OF the
shell being thrown several feet. Subse-
quently. on trying the experiment, out
of d dozen shells only two failed to ex-
plode.-National Druggist.

EXISTED CENTURIES AGO.
RemarIxabIe Discoveries Made by Dr
Nueach I'm Switzerland.

RenaarkabIe Discoveries Made by DF.
Nuesch in Switzerland.
DR.. Nuesch has made some interest,"
ing discoveries In a rock shelter at
Schweizersbild, near Schaffhausen.
The entire series Of deposits, 240 to 200
centimeters in thickness, are estimated
to represent a period OF from $4,000 to
2e,o00 years-from the glacial period tol
the present time. DR.. Geikie thus
sums up what DR.. Nueaeh has done: /
"His work has demonstrated that
tundra, steppe and forest faunas have,
succeeded each other, thus establish
Ing the truth of inferences already ar
rived at by Nehring and others. Il has,
shown, likewise, that this faunal suc-
eession followed after the retreat Of the
great glaciers OF the third glacial
epoch, and that palaeolithic man wasi
certainly contemporaneous In thp ALI
pine Yorland with the tundra and the.
steppe faunas. Further, 1t introduces
us for the first time to the lost race OF
neolithic pygmies. Lastly, we have in,
the Schweixersbild rock shelter the
most complete section yet discovered.
showing the exact succession Of the,
several archaeological epochs, Che,
paIaeolithic. neolithic. bronze and iron
ages"
A touching glimpse Is given Of the
honaelove Of the neo1ithie men who
I lived from 1000 to 5000 years ego:
among the neouthic interments ten
were OF ehildren-three OF these new
born infants, while the others were re-
speetive1y three months, two years,
four years and seven years old when
they died. Two of the infants had
been buried with their mothers and
their graves contained no relics, while
those Of the other children did, the
relics consisting of shells. and finely
finished flint implements. The great
care with which the graves had been
constructed and the presence OF the
ornaments and other valuable objects
placed beside his dead little ones show
how strong was neolithic mans FAM
fly affection. The newborn infants
were laid each within the right arm OF
its mother, while, with the left arm
stretched across her breast, the latter
seemed TO hold the little one fast.
The same generation which learned
through II. NJ. Stanley OF the actual ex-
istence OF pygmies In the forests OF
central Africa now discovers from these
Swiss remains that race OF pygnies
fourished in Europe thousands OF
years ago, ssThe examination OF the
skeletons OF u adults shows that dur
ing neolithic times the Schweizersbild
was frequented by two distinctly diff
| ferent races. One of these was Of fair
stature 1900 ulillimeters and more),
while the other was much sma1aer-a
true pygmy race. Prof. Kollmann, who
has described the remains, is quite GER
| tain that the dwarfike proportions Of
the latter have nothing In common with
diseased conditions. This, from many
points Of view, Is o highly interesting
discovery. II is possible. as DR.. Nuesch
suggests. that the widely-spread legend
ae to the former existence ofHttle men
dwarfs apd gnomes, who were sup.
posed to haunt caves and retired places
In the mountains, may be "reminiscences
of these neolithic pygmies. Scottish
