the abandonment of their national poll
icy and the adoption of the world policy
of conquest.
When I listened. as have been list
ening for months past, to the alternate
taunts and lamentations of the foes
and friends of America, the babel of
voices seemed at least to merge into
one of scornful chorus of welcome to
Uncle Sam.
Hell from beneath is moved for thee
to meet thee at thy coming; it stirreth
up the dead for thee, even all the chief
ones of the earth; it hath raised up
from their thrones all the kings of the
nations. All thew shall speak and say
unto thee, art thou also become as
weak as we? Art thou become like
unto us? How are thou fallen from
heaven, oh, Lucifer. son of the morn
ingl
You may urge, protest and rage as
you please, the old world has made up
its mind on the subject, and nothing
that can be said or done in the United
States will alter it's judgment. The
American government has come out of
its ring fence. 1t has thrown it's hat
into the arena of the world. 1t is
launched on a career of conquest whic!
will be all the more predatory because
it is masked by humanitarianism The
commonwealth, they holdm, has sue
cumbed to the malady which has so
long plagued the old world. A bright
hope for the human race was extin-
guished when the one nOn-military
power, which eschewed all schemes of
aggression and annexation, enrolled it.
self among the common herd of con-
quering states. So men talk every
where in Europe. Whether they regard
the old American ideal with sympathy
or with content, they all agree in be-
lieVing that it has been abandoned
and that forever.
The annexation of the Philippine ISL
ands may seem but a small thing, but
it is decisive.

be said to vie with the opal in coloring
and to sparkle like the diamond.
OF course, for the uses of society no
one would have a whole gown made Of
this material: it would be too startling:
as it is so brilliant that even Jewels
have to be laid aside until a more some
her background is chosen for them. But
those who are fortunate enough to have
brought it from Egypt intend using it
in the front OF gowns when the sides
and back are of some contrasting ma
terial. The one that is already await
ing function worthy of its appear
ance, is hung over white satin and
forms a front panel in a gown made, en-
princesse. The rest of the gown is over
velvet, which is of the most exquisite
of the green shades. Hardly anything
Of a more bewildering beauty can be
imagined.
One of the women that boasts the
possession of the fabric insists that she
prizes it too highly to back it out in
ball gown, for the weight of the beetles
backs or the delicate net makes il very
peliShable. Her beautiful square win
be used as a table covering at formal
dinner parties. 1t will be spread over
white satin and finished with an ex-
quisite broad gold lace. No silver or
glass ornaments will be used with this
covering; only the softest pink or yell
low roses will drOop upon it to complete
the decoration.
An immense amount Of dexterity is
required to be able to purchase this
stuff in Egypt, as it is made exclusive
iy by the women in the harenS, and in
very small quantities. It is only worn
by them on the most distinguished Oc-
casions, when it covers some lovely face
as a veil The beetles have ever been
objects of the greatest interest in Egypt,
and used for personal adornment.
We have also this season a fair pros
pect of seeing many of the embroidered
boleros in gold and silver that are 50
characteristic of Egyptian art. Those
that are the most beautiful are also
made by the women IN the harems, and
can readily be distinguished by the alb
sence of all apparent stitches. They ap-
pear to be blown together, although in
reality they are sewn securely from
the under side. The stitches Of those
that are bought in the bazars come
through and show plainly on the right
side. They are worked by men and
lack the delicate touch and designing
of the harem work.
These boleros are worn with light
silks and caShmeres, and a feature is
made of having the two knee sashes
hang down in front that as much as
possible the oriental character may not
be lost. There is hardly any style of
costume that lends such grace and
charm to an attractive woman.
But among the languid beauties that
make these embroideries it is only the
true women who spend a large amount
of time at embroidery and resign their
work to be sent out to the great mar
kets of the world without ever dream
ing of the interest that is dispersed by
their nimble fingers.

SHARKEY WILL FIGHT MITCHELL
MATCH TO BE PULLED OFF IN
MARCH.
Mitchell Wants to Fight In England
and Sharkey Will Agree To. "Any
Old Place"

New York, Dec. S,-The International
fight between Charles Mitchell and Tom
Sharkey will not take place before
March next, and the latter can now
make arrangements to fight Kid Nc
Coy in January. In response to Shar-
keys acceptance of Mitchell's challenge
and his offer to fight him in January.
Mitchell cabled that he could not get in
condition to fight before March, but
that he desired the match and request
ed that articles of agreement be sent to
him at once, and if the conditions are
satisfactory he will sign them and be-
gin training.
When Mitchell issued the challenge
he deposited $1,000 in London and the
same amount Tom O'Rourke covered on
behalf of Sharkey. The latter stipulat-
ed that the fight must take place in
January, as he desired to go to San
Francisco in February to fight Jefferies,
but O'Rourke said that if Mitchell gave
him positive assurances that he would
meet Sharkey here in March he would
delay his departure to the Pacific coast.
O'Rourke says he will insist upon side
wager of at least $4,000 If Mitchell
will agree to fight here, O'Rourke says
he will allow him $500 for training ex-

Manila, P. L. Dec. 3.-The Hongkong
newspapers have asserted that the at

to the insurgents. The Germans Of
Manila have circulated a statement,
saying the Germans are thoroughly
friendly towards the Filipinos. This
statement is signed by the German con-

THE ILLINOIS CENTRAL.
May Become the Union Pacific's Close
CONNECTING Line.

The coming of the Illinois Central to
omaha is OF more than ordinary in
terest because of the fact that E. H.
Hartman is chairman of the executive
committee of that road, the same po-
sldon that he held on the Union Pa
enc. Prominent railroad laen seem to
think the Illinois Central will soon be
made the closer connecting line of the
Union Pacific east of Omaha, and that
the bulk Of the business will gradually
be withdrawn from the Northwestern

cerned.
There is no freight agreement be-

brought suit in the supreme court against
the American China Development COM
pany for 100000 for services in OBJ
tanning railroad concessions from the i'm
perial Chinese government, through the
Chinese minister at Washington.
The concessions are worth in net profit
at least Sl2000,000 to the company and
they may be worth S24,000,000. They are
the most valuable grants ever made by
the Chinese government to foreign cap
italists and the terms are more favorable
than the concessions obtained in recent
years by French, Belgian, English and
Russian syndicates.
The chief spirit of the American China
Development company is Calvin S. Brice.

MITCHELL HEARD from.

New York, Dec. "a dispatch to the
World from London says: Charlie
Mitchell, who is training at Hove, .near
Brighton and looks already in admir-
able condition, gave the following
signed statement regarding his chaI-
lenge to Sharkey and it's acceptance:
Il consider the match made for
certainty if Sharkey is reasonable con
corning time. 1 am twenty-four pounds
above my proper weight. Then another
item, if the fight is to take place in
America, the weather is bad there at
this time of the year for training. What
would suit me best would be if we
could fight in England at the end of
March. If we meet in America, April
or May would suit, the latter month
preferred. I have no doubt this would
be agreeable to Sharkey. If so all is
settled.
CHARLES MITCHELL"
Tom O'Rourke, when shown the fore
going statement last night, said on be-
half of Sharkey:
eve will meet Mitchell at any old
time or place that suits him. The only
condition that we will make is that if
the fight is to take place in England,
the purse offered there must be as large
as would be given in this country

It is unpleasant for the Anglo Saxon
to hear this on every side, but since the
peace negotiations have developed a
demand for the complete session of the
Philippines. Americans will do well to
recognize that some such statement as
the above presents the current opinion
of almost everyone in Europe who pays
cursory attention to what is going on
abroad. The immense majority Of
Europeans are. of course, absolutely ig-
noraut of what has happened. Intent
on their daily toll, they neither know
nor care what occurs in other hemis-
Dheres. But the Europeans who read
newspapers-who form what may be
described as the public opinion of the
old world, are practically of one mind
on the matter. Outside of England 1
