This plan of organizing an Ameri-

idea of the late Calvin Brice, who
fOresaw possible trouble for the
American syndicate and knew that
Great Britain was always ready to
back up private enterprises in which
her countrymen were interested. This
led TO the formation of the British

the American Chinese Development

Is Pure Water a Poison7

The Washington, d. c., Post says:
In the Sanitary Home for July
there is an interesting discussion OF
"pure water as a poison" the alleged
injurious effect of distilled water on
the stomach being cited in favor of
the use of natural waters con tanning
some small proportion of minerals
Chemic'lly pure water, it is alleged,

To Build a British American Railroad in

the joint capital, it is said, will be
$4,000, 900.
w. B. Parsons, on behalf OF the
Brice syndicate, will ask President
Mckinley to guarantee the syndicate
the prott ction Of the United States
Government. The British Govern
ment has already assured the English
capitalists that they will be assured of
all of the rights provided in their con.
cession, and one of the terms of the
alliance of the two syndicates is that
the Briee syndicate shall have the
protection of the United States.
Should this be agreed to by the
authorities in Washington, it would
mean a commercial alliance under
which the United States and Great
Britain would be forced to stand to-
gether in dealing with the Chinese
Empire. 1t is said that no such ar
rsngment has heretofore been en-
tered into by the United States
Should the President agree the
Government would, it is understood,
be much more than q disinterested
party in the future of China

6ROTIUS HONORED.
BY the American Peace Delegates
at the Hague.

Ambassador White and his collea-
CUES of the American delegation to the
peace conference celebrated the na-
| tional independence lay July 4 by
trip TO Delft where they depos ted on
the tomb of Hugo Grotius, the father
of laurel and oak.wrought in silver and
bearing the arms OF the Netherlands
and the United States.
| The wreath was deposited on the
tomb with appropriate ceremonies
which included addresses by represen-
tatives Of.the Netherlands government,
several members of the peace confer
ence and members of the faculty of the
university of Leyden.
GroJius, the father of international
law, to whose memory the American
delegates have paid go signal tribute,
was not only q wonderful jurist, but
versatile genius, and one Of Hollands
most illustrious scholars. BY the force
of his style he attracted all Europe In
his day to read and inwardly digest the
great laws of nations expOnnded in his
the history of the Netherlands of his
day. In his early political and diplo-
matte life he found time still for
scholarship In his Latin verse he
sang the story of the siege of Ostend,
and wrote. a Latin tragedy. which pre-
ceded both the works of Vondel and
Milton.
He was chosen by the United
provinces to be the historiographer of
their struggle with Spain, and he
wrote a legal treatise in their defense
But when Stakeholder Maurice of
Nassau executed Barneveldt in 1913 be
found it expedient also to condemn
Grotius. At the age of thirty-six tn.
great jurist thus found himself Gagged
and confronted with: lifelong imprison-
ment.
He resigned himself to the classics,
but his brave-hearted wife came to
share his Imprisonment at the fortress,
aud in three years managed to effect
bis escape from captivity. Smuogled
out in a baskes of soiled linen, Grotins
escaped to Paris in the disguise of
mason, with trowel and hod.
