TRIF OF THE NEWPORT.
Interesting Details of the Run From
hey West to GreytOwn.

Interesting details have been received at
the Navy Department of the recent trip
of the gunboat Newport from Key West
TO Greytown with the Nicaragua canal sur
veying party board. The vessel left
Key West December II and arrived at
Greytown the 18th. The latter half of
the cruise was made principally under sail
and her sailing qualities were found to be
highly satisfactory. One of the squalls
for which the Caribbean is famous struck
her while under sail without causing any
perceptible heeling. Approaching Grey
town she did not behave so we'll, how
ever, the ground swells causing her to roll
to her upper rail and giving her passen-
gers most unpleasant experience. Ar
irving at Greytown, the Nicaraguan gov
ornment sent off it's Representatives on a
government tug, the San Jacinto, to meet
Admiral Walker and the other commits
sioners- Their exit from the ship was
Eiade in the way SO characteristic of the
Central American countries. by means of
a chair and tackle, each one being low
cred from the side of the ship to the deck
of the lighter below, q mode disagree
able as it is novel. On the arrival in port
of Admiral Walker. Col. Hams and Mr.
HaUpt, they were met by the command
ant and received with the greatest formal
ity and ceremony, as well as cordially.
Fearing that the heavy sea at the time
OH GreytoWn would prevent the landing
of the steam launches and other mate
rial of the expedition. Capt. Tilley decided
to leave On the 18th for Port Simon, Costa
Rica, TO secure the necessary labOrers for
the working parties, arriving at the latter
place the same day. This mission did not
prove entirely successful, 1t being diff
cult to secure sufficient labOrers, in con-
sequence of which failure the ship will
later go to Colon. hoping then without
trouble to find the necessary men. On the
evening of the 10Th the captain and Off

ship returned the night of the 10Th to

expedition. Owing to the lack of laborers,
the organization of the expedition is still
incomplete and work cannot at once be

The Symptoms of "Buck Fever

From the Marquette Mining Journal
A Marquette citizen tells the Journal his
experience with buck fever" He had
never tried to shoot a deer and hunting
them was new to him. After spending a
few hours tramping through the woods
feeling tired, he sat down on log to rest
for a short time. Now, like most hunters
he had taken his pipe and tobacco along.
Filling the pipe, he smoked for time with.
out interruption, when, happening to turn
his head little to one side, he saw a large
buck coming straight toward him. As luck
would have it, he had sat down to smoke
near a deer trail.
The deer kept getting nearer and nearer
until he got nearly opposite the place
where the hunter sat concealed. While the
hunter was watching the approach of the
deer he forgot that he had a gun and that
the deer was his meat" He began TO
tremble and shake in every limb and Joint
and 1t was a difficult matter for him to re-
strain a yell Of fright. He watched and
trembled until the deer was passing his
hiding place and into the thicket beyond
Then feeling for his pipe, he discovered
that 1t lay on the ground near his feet
BY the time he had picked 1t up the deer
was out of range.f and then he discovered
that in his excitement he had bitten the
mouthpiece of his pipe in two.
He was greatly relieved to see the deer
move on, as 1t seemed to him that he was
the game and the deer the hunter.

Bay State Abandoned Farms.

From the Springfield Mass Republican.
Our abandoned farms, as advertised by
the state, continue to find purchasers. But
there are many yet in the market. The
state board Of agricuture's annual report
mentions the sale of twenty-scven Of these
properties during the year. and eight more
were withdrawn from the public catalogue
published by the state. Some I36 abandon
ed farms were described in last years cata-
iogue. OF the twenty-seven reported Sold
fourteen were bought for general farming
purposes, and the others for special OBJ
Jects, like poultry and stock raising, sum-
msr residences. and for the timber and
pasturage. Six OF the purchasers are resi-
dent outside of New England: Florida, Ohio
and New Jersey contributing one EACH and
New York three. Massachusetts furnished
fourteen of the purchasers. Gradually, no
doubt, this abandoned land will be brought
into some use. 1t is rather surprising
| though, that more Of it is not being taken
for sheep raising and grazing The tax
assessors reports for the year show that
the number of sheep in the state continues
to decline. The farmers say that there are
too many dogs in Massachusetts,.

VIOLATED ALL TREATIES
Ii Hung Chang Discusses Germany's 0ccu-
patton of Kiao Chou.
China, Struggling I'm the Throes OF q
Local Reformation, in No Posi-
ti0n to Resent 1t.

The Pekin correspondent Of the New
York Herald sends the following interview
with Ii Hung Charg. TIE Chinese premier
says:
THE fcrcible occupation Of Kiao Chou
by Germany is a direct violation of exist
ing treaties and of international law.
THE pretext made for this act of war
was the murder of two missionaries by
robbers in the interior of the province of
Shan-tLng. The Chinese government Of
fered immediate and full redress for this
outrage-punishment Of the criminals. dis
missal of the local officials and large COM
Per sation for all losses.
"Anxiots to avoid hostile acts, the
Chinese troops were withdrawn from Kiao
Chou when the Germans landed, and in
spite of strong public feeling prevailing
throughout the country for the defense OF
Chinese territory against aggression. my
government has not sent reinforcements to
Kiao Chou.
Outlaws exist in China, as in all coun-
tries. Neither treaties, law nor religion
can entirely suppress crime anywhere in
the world. though they condemn and pun
ish the criminals. There are places in
every country where lawlessness abounds,
and to such place in Shan-tung the Ger

ing that the inhabitants themselves were
often victims of these bandits.

ard our country requires period of peace
to carry out the work of reform lately be-
gun.
"Of late years. from instruction and Oh
servation the CHR csc have come to re-
gard the countries of the western world as
models, and even greater in justice than in
arms.
rs it just to Cypress us while we are
struggling to emerge from tine restraints
of E,lIr
ment and progress steadily continue?
Should China be distressed by having her
shores invaded and her territory occupied
because of an occurrence which western
countries would deal with by law and not
by war-an unexpected incident, deplored
by my government and followed by full
redress?
"Our desire is to preserve our territory
intact and to steadily improve 1t as field

The first clock In our sense Of the word.
seems to have been (for we are not sure as

named Henry de Vic, and those who are

The clock was put up in the round tower

assembled to watch the novelty's action

A Mixed People.
The population of the PhillDDIneS is
probably the worst mixed of any group
of islands, even in that part of the
world. The islands lie about midway
between the continents of Asia and
Australia The Negritos, or aborigines,
are closely analogous to the natives of
New Guinea and Australia. But the
Negritos. long before the coming of the
Europeans, had become an unimportant
factor in the population, having been
driven back into the interior and
mountainous portions Of the islands by
the Malays. When Magellan discovered
the Islands, in 1o21. he found all the
coasts settled by Malays. But the
Malay Indians by no means monopo-
lied the better parts of the islands. for
among them there was n large almiy-
turc of Chinese, Japanese, lIindus, ST
amose and other Asiatic coast races
and tribes, so that the Malays them
selves were a sort of composite race.
To the present day the heterogeneous
ness of the population continues. ana
although the Spanish have political
control of the islands, only about 5,CnO
of these foreigners. and they chiefly
ofiiccholders, are to be found on the en-
