Something About the Man Recently Made n
Captain by the President.

Moses G.. Zalinski of the Second Artillery.
who was appointed Captain by the President on
Wednesday, has had an interesting career in
the army. He is IL brother OF Capt. i. l.. Ia
linaki. retired, who invented the dynamite gun,
md although he did not have the ad vantnges IF
a West Point training, nc determined to go into
the army In the hope of winning n commission.
Il. l.. Xalinski was ut that time n Lieutenant,
and Moses Xalinski, wishing to depend solely
ON his own efforts, enlisted rs n private soldier
under an assumed name. He made n model en-
listed man and he proved to be n good student.
lie prepared himself for examination for II COM
mission, passed 1t, and was appointed a Second
Lieutenant.
In 1896 no graduated from the Artillery
School at Fort Monroe, and In The anne year no
reached the grade of First Lieutenant. ilis'rc'
many numbers ahead of some of the men who
were preparing AT West Point while yOjing Za'
linski was shouldcring u mLlskct ana attending
10 the duties of an enlisted man, Few OF the
ranks In recent years have heen as fortunate as
Capt. Xllinski. An army oiiicer VINO IL now on
the retired list. in speaking OF the promotions
that arc made from the ranks, said:
at II an unfortunate fact that some Of these
men who have won their commissions while
they were enlisted men have, proved Failures,
bur they are the CAc"p ion. In the navy, you
know, an enlisted man cannot get a com
mission. think thar this opportunlty which
is offered to every enlisted man in the army is
a constant incentive 10 discipline and study.
Some of our best officers have graduated from
thG ranks, and II they are good fellows he fact
that they are not NeSi Foint nIon does not

Chiun.
SAN FRANCISCO, March 13.-The correspondent
Of the North China Daily Ncirs at Nganhefu,
Hupeh, sends a story Of the barbarous execution
Of three robbers in that city on Jan. 16. Four
men were condemned 10 decapitation for rob
bling an aged widow Of coin and a cow and bru-
tally maltreatinG her. On the execution ground
three of the men confessed that they were
guilty and exonerated the fourth man, who had
all along protested his innocence. So the inno-
cent man was returned to prison.
Then the three men. with their hands bound
behind their backs, and with their legs tied.
were placed on their knees on the ground. Tho
executioner. with a heavy sword. tried to cut
off their heads. but though he gave each be-
tween ten and twenty sword cuts, many Of the
blows fell about tho shoulders and simply
mangled the poor victims. Finally they were
all left for dead, with the usual gaping Chinese
crowd standing around.
After the executioner had gone. one of the
victims spoke. The cxecutioner was informed,
and returning he Topped off the heads Of all
three to make sure they were dead.

Mr. Burns Has Not Vet Get tho Divorce ne
Needs In Order TO Wed N1ias ArosE.
SAN FRANCISCO. March 13.-The Honolulu
newspapers recently contained an item saying
that the application of H.. r. Burns for divorce
from Hattie f. Burns had been denied for lack
Of jurisdiction. Burns. who is a Californian,
had married a San jose young woman. They
were not happy. and Mrs. Burns went to Yoko-
hama on a vacation while no sailed for Homo
lulu. He had letters to prominent persons, and
at a reception on the night he landed ho met
Miss Bessie Along; one of the ten daughters OF
waiian wife. One OF the Along girls married
Captain. now Admiral Whiting OF the Unitod
States Navy, but Bessie Is regarded as tho
~prettiest of the family.
Burns fell in love with her. and she was
smitten with him. They soon arranged to be
married. provided, Burns could get a divorce
from his wife. This he set about doing, and
learned. that she would offer no objection IL
she could secure the custody OF her child. But
one OF Miss Bessie's brothcrs,in.law who is n
Californian was after tho girls dowry, which is
$40. 600. So no secured possession of Mrs.
Burnss letter. and when the divorce case came
up he knocked Burns out by showing collision.

was at the rear of 40 wost Grand street and

IRE, communicating to a heap of hay. The man
had to run for his life. Within five minutes the
flames had spread to the lumber shed. Tho
lumber yard adjoins the Jersey Central Rail-
road tracks. and the flames were carried over
the tracks SO that trains could not pass. For
over an hour passenger trains were stalled.
One train from Newark. bound to Roscllo, and
In charge of Engineer johnson, got through.
The flames were sweeping across two tracks
and Johnson's train was on the third He
hacked his train n quarter of n mile. Then,
putting on a full head Of steam, he took the
train past the fire. Several passengers were on

ATTITUDE OF HAWAIIANs.
Fully Half OF the Intelligent Natives In Favor
OF Annexation.

SAN FRANCIsCo. Cal, March 13.-Last month
a story came from Honolulu to the effect that
Benjamin Cluff, Mormon. in cnnvassing Hin.
wall found the natives violently opposed to an
nexation and greatly enamored of the English
protectorate. Cluff, who is President OF the
Brigham Young College at Provo, Utah. and
who was sent to Hawaii by Senator Frank Cam
non to get the facts about tho preferences of ma
tives, reached here to-day on a steamer.
He denies absolutely the story about the pro-
british sympathies or the kanakas. He speaks
dence of many natives and held meetings In
Oahu. Maui, and Hilo. He declares that fully
one.half Of the intelligent native Hawaiians
favor annexation to the United States. while
tho remainder favor the monarchy. OF tho
latter. however. the greater part would prefer
to see the country under American rule II the
Queen cannot be restored. In Hilo. where Con.
found no natives who favored annexation, Cluff
secured a petition from fifty Of the leading ma
tives praying Congress TO annex the islands.

Thomas Cash Of Alb Warren street. Brooklyn.
was arrested last night charged with having
caused the death Of Elizabeth Meanings. his
common.law wife. She died suddenly at her
homo yesterday morning. and the police were
informed that while preparing to go TO church
she had been stricken with heart disease. This
story was believed. there being at that time no
evidence to the contrary.
Last night, however. Daniel Mornings. the
16-year-old son of the woman. went to tho But
Ter street police station and tod a different
story. He said that he was present when his
mother died, and that her death was due TO u
blow from Cash's fist. The two quarrelled, he
said. over q trivial matter. and Cash in his
anger struck the woman over the heart. She
fell backward, striking her head against the
corner Of the bureau and dying almost instantly.
The police presume from this statement that
death was really due to heart disease. resulting
from the blow.
When Cash was arrested he denied having
struck tho woman, but admitted that he had
showed her SO that she fell, because she WAS try
ing to scratch his eyes out. Cash Is % years

When Francis Wilson, the comic opera star,
offered to build a fort around the Soldiers
Monument in New Rochelle last summer which
should he n thing Of beauty and.a credit to tho
little park which it was to inclose. the local
G. A. Il. post accepted tho proposal with
thanks. Mr.. Wilson donated q fort construct.
ed after plans devised by Artist Kemblc, and
then there was n difference of opinion as to its
appropriateness which, divided one OF tho
church societies, carried the q. 4. X. post back
to war times and furnished Mr.. Wilson and his
friends no little amusement. Mr.. Wilson said
that the fort should not be Judged until its walls
Ind teen covered with moss and vines, and
there were enthusiasts who alleged that IL was
a thing OF beauty rs II stood.
las Mir. Wilson donated the fort" said Tom
Mason. one of his friends. at would be un.
gracious to look 1t in the teeth, 30 | go to the
station by another route now"
Mr.. Wilson took the criticism of his gift in
good part and waited for tho moss to grow as
its design planned. 1t was supposed that tho
olsen ssion had been settled In favor of the fort
until last week, when men working under the
direction of II committee from the q. A. H., pre-.
sumably. began to tear down the walls. The
fort Is now.half destroyed, and the stones which
were once a part OF IL are slowed in a vacant
q liar. This action has aroused n greater
storm OF disapproval than did the building Of
the fort, and as Mr.. Wilson is away with his
company 1t remains TO be seen what heiwlll do
about II.
