MOVING TARGET lip

Sergeant Elvin has installed his NOV
ing target at Kakaako butts, and it is
affording more than ordinary amuse-
ment for some of the better shots of
the city. The target is made to move
the distance between about three bulk
heads. Four shots must be fired at it
as it passes between each of the bulk
heads. This necessitates rapid shoot
ing. The pace is that of a man walk
ing at an easy gait.

1sraelitish Blood in Royal Veins.

A remarkable feature in connec-
ton with the reigniug houses Of Eu-
rope, says the London Weekly, is
the fact that nearly everyone of
them has strains of Hebrew blood in
the veins of its members. Almost
everyone Of the now reigning fami-
lies are descended from Alberta,
Queen of Sicily, who was daughter
of the old Hebrew banker, Perleoni.
The latter was the first OF his race
to be admitted TO the ranks of Eu-
ropean aristocracy. Pope Leo TX.
ennobled him in the year 1116.
Later on one OF his sons, who be.
came converted to the Roman Cath
Ollie Church, assembled the Papal
throne under the title of Anacletus
Ill. This, however. by no means
constitutes the only source of
Hebrew blood in the royal and i'm
perial veins Of to-day. There are
others OF far less rem ote character.
The grandfather Of King Ferdin-
and of Portugal, the grandfather of
the present King, was Hungarian
Hebrew named Kohary, whose
daughter and heiress married Prince
Ferdinand OF Saxe-Coburg. The
King OF Portugal is therefore in
dubitably of Israelitish descent, and
so, too, is Prince Ferdinand of Bull
garia, whose features are remarkably
Hebraic; he is, in fact, a grandson
of old Kohary's heiress. A second
OF the latter's grandson, Duke
Philip OF SAKE Coburg, is welded to
the eldest daughter of King Leopold
of Belgium, while third, Augustus
by name, married daughter of the
late Emperor Dom Pedro, of Brazil

GENERAL YoUNG's ADVANCE.
Troops Experience Difficulty In Get
ting Over the Country.

Manila, Oct. 30.-General Young with
the infantry, is advancing upon Ca
banatuan under difficulties. The coun-
try is furrowed with rivers and deep
rayines, the bridges over which have
been destroyed; the mud is deep, rations
are short and the transportation of sup
plies has been delayed by low water
and the poor condition of the roads.
There are sufficient stores, however
to keep the brigade. The insurgents for
long time have lived off the country,
impoverishing it. The American horses
are not yet accustomed TO the native
grass and long bullock train has left
San Fernando carrying hay for the cav
airy. The Spaniards report that there
are no insurgents at Cabanatuan.
The gunboat Laguna de Bay dis
persed a force of rebels who were en-
gagged in constructing trenches beyond
Santa Rosa. The boat was fred upon
by a party of insurgents bearing a
white flag. She is now aground
Numbers of Chinese are coming to
Angeles from Tarlac, paying the in
surgents for the privilege. 1t is re-
ported that Aguinaldo and the Filipino
congress are still at Tarlac.
There are about 5000 insurgents be-
fore Angeles. They have been quiet
for the past week. Two thousand reb-
els are at Bamban. five miles to the
north. General Bales has haen recalled
from San Fernando ana or,ered 10 sail
for the southern islands as soon as pos
sible.

seven, nine and twelve-pound explo-
sive shells. At the beginning the
craftsmanship was erratic but Ulti-
mately the gunners got the range and
soon sent a number of shell into the
town.
Comparatively little damage was
done. A convent which had been con-
verified into a hospital was the chief
sufferer, three of the shells striking
the building. The ammunition used by
the Beers was apparently of an in
ferior quality There were no casual
ties.
1.-THE British returned only one shot.
which being well directed, disabled
one of the enemy's guns.
After three hours the Beers sent
an envoy to ask if the town was pre-
pared to surrender. Colonel Baden
Powell replied in the negative, but the
Smelling of the town was not resumed"
A later dispatch from Matching
dated Oct. q. says: The Beers are in
possession of the waterworks and
have cut off the supply. This occasions
no anxiety, because ample supplies are
available in tanks and wells.
During a sortie this evening the
British encountered the enemy three
miles off to the north. The Beers had
apparently been warned and returned
our fire in earnest with well handled
tention of pressing an attack they re-
tired immediately.
Commander Sidney Webb was
severely wounded and was left be-
hind during the retreat, but was after
ward rescued by Trooper Stevens The
conduct of our men was splendid The
enemy's loss could not be ascertained.

MRS. STANF0RD's WORK.
Her Great Efforts In Behalf of the

Stanford of California is at the Fifth
Avenue hotel in the best of health and
spirits, having recently arrived from
Europe, where she passed several
months. She will remain here a week
longer and then go directly to Calffor-

Speaking of the great Stanford univer-
sity, the completion of which absOTbs
her entire time and attention, Mrs
Stanford said:
Before l left California I told my

what further buildings he needed, and
they will be devoted to chemistry and
art. The plans are now awaiting my
approval.

The university now has 1,400 stu
dents-500 girls and 500 boys have
limited the number of girls who can at

boys and threatened to destroy the
identity of the university as a mascu-

be, since it is in coTnnenoration of my
son.

TRADE RIGHTS OF AMERICANS.
Must Be Respected In China By Rus
STA, Germany and France.

Chicago, Oct ga special to the
Times Herald from Washington says: The
United States has demanded from the
governments of Russia, Germany and
France assurances that in their division
of China into zones of political domina-
ton or spheres of influence the trade
rights of citizens OF this country shall be
fully respected. These demands are pretty
sure to be acceded 10. and as soon as the
necessary correspondence can be passed
between Washington and the three Euro
pean capitals, it is not doubted that the
desired assurances viii be given by the
governments named.
In fact, a tacit understanding to this eff
feet already exists, and little remains to
be done but to decide upon the form in
which the assurances shall be given.
There was some little surprise in diplo-
matte circles when the demands of this
government were presented through the
embassies here, but no sign of extreme
dsspleasure or of intention to resist was
manifested in any quarter.
This move for making sure of trade
statuseS in China, for assuring ourselves
that all our treaty rights would be re-
speCted upon the proposed Encouragement
of actual authority along the coast of
China. was entered upon by the admins
tration in no light or casual manner, but
only after full discussion and careful con-
sideration of all the possibilities. Now
that there is practically a certainty of 4.
successful issue, il is felt that a great
stroke has been made for American trade
and influence.
