THE WHITE MAYS b Burden.
RudyArd Kipling.

Take up the White Mans BURDEN
Send forth the best we breed
Go. bind your sons to exile
To serve your captiye's need;
To wait, in heavy harness.
On fiuttered folk and wild
Your new-caueht slllen peoples,
Half devil and half child.
Take up the White Mans burden
In patience to abide.
To veil the threat of terror
And check the show of pride;
By open speech and simple,
An hundred times made plain,
To seek anothor's profit
And work anothers gain.
Take Up the White Mans BURDEN
The savage wars of peace
Fill full the mouth of Famine,
And bid the sickness cease
And when your goal is nearest
CThe end for others sought)
Watch sloth and heather folly
Bring all your hopes to naught.
Take up the White Mans burden
No iron rule of kings,
But toll of Serf and sweeper
The tale of common things.
The ports ye shall not enter,
The roads We shall not tread,
Go, make them with your living
And mark them with your dead.
Take up the White Mans burden,
And reap his old reward
The blame of those We better
The hate of those we guard
The cry of hosts We humor
(Ah, slowly y toward the light;
why brought We us from bondage.
Our loved Egyptian night"
Take up the White Mans BURDEN
Ye dare not stoop for less
Nor call too loud on Freedom
To cloke your WEAKNESS.
BY all We will or whisper,
by all ye leave or do.
The silent stillen peoples
Shall weigh your God and you.
Take up the White Man's burdenl
Have done with childish days
The lightly proffered laurel,
The easy ungrudged praise:
Canes now, to search YOUR manhood
Through all the thankless years,
Cold, edged with dcar-bought wisdom,
The judgment of your peers.

commissioners of the Powers are Hnv-
ing Their Troubles in SamOa.

San Francisco, Oct. 2l.-The steam
er Moana has arrived from Australian
ports via Apia, Samoa, and Honolulu.
A press correspondent at Samoa sends
startling news. He says: The aspect
of affairs in Samoa is far from reas-
suring. There is trouble brewing
and it will come soon if the three pow
ers do not come to aid the government
and the distracted officials. The three
consuls who were left mere as a pro-
visional government by the commits
sioners are not finding their position
a bed OF roses.
Trouble has arisen in the Atua dis
trict among the natives. The Saleau-
la natives visited the vicinity to at
tend feast given i'll their honor.
There was disagreement over the
distribution of food and Tuisila, chief
of the Nutiateles, struck a man of an
other village. The man started TO
run, and as he turned back the chief
drew revolver and shot him dead. He
then turned the weapon on another,
with the same result. Another high
chief demanded the death of Tuisila
and IA battle followed, Tuisila being
badly injured. He was carried to the
German war vessel Kormoran, but
nothing could be done for him and he
was returning to his own village, where
he died. All the natives mixed up
IN the atfray are Mataafa adherents.
The 13 chiefs that were associated
with the rebel government now claim
that they are the government of Sa-
moa and have issued "a proclamation
to the three consuls regarding the
poll tax. The paper notifies all Sa-
moa that a poll tax of 81 a head must
be paid by all the able-bodied natives
and colored men outside of the town
of Apia by November /.

MADE A GOOD BARGAIN.
Uncle Sam Appears to be the Gainer
by the Agreement TO the Alaskan
BOUNDARY.

Washington, Oct. 20.-Up to the close
of business at the state department
yesterday nothing had been heard
| from London respecting the Alaskan
modus vivendi.
When the details of the arrange
ment are made public, which will fol
low Immediately upon its conclusion
| it will be found that nearly all of the
attempts made up to this point to de-
scribe the new boundary line accurate
| lv were inadequate in important re-
spects. The maximum claim of the
| United States is not maintained. That
was not to be expected in this arrange
ment, which was intended particular-
ly to relieve the situation so far as the
Dalton trail route is concerned.
No attempt was made to establish
a claim to that territory lying between
the head OF Chilkoot pass and White
pass and the lakes to the north. 1t
does not follow that the United States
has relinQuished the extreme claim at
that point. but simply that by mutual
agreement reached about two years
ago, the heads of these two passes
were recognized as marking points of
temporary divisional line, without
sacrificing the permanent rights of
either party. This arrangement has
been found to work without friction
and the present is believed to be an
inopportune time to disturb it.
The point where trouble threatened
was on the Dalton trail. although n
side trail does connect the points, but
is rather the natural pathway from
Pyramid IIarbor into the Klondike.
The United States government could
scarcely contend at this point that the
boundary line was to be defined by the
prescribed zone of 30 miles from the
sea, for in this section of the coun-
try there is an undeniahle mountain
range, in which case the treaty pro-
vided that this range should fix the
boundary. Therefore, the new ar
rangement draws a line from Chilkoot
pass in direction little south of
west to the mountain peak about ten
miles west of the Dalton trail.
This line cuts across the ChiIkat
river some distance above the town of
Klul,wan. thus completely cutting off
the British possessions from navigable
water. II also THROWS lHto American
territory a triangular section of the
Porcupine country, of considerable eX-
tent. which was claimed by Canada
and which is now being prospected by
number of American miners who
were driven from the Atlin country
by adverse Rritish Columbian legisla-
ton. Crossing this in the western
section is the lower end of the Dalton
trail. of which the United States OBJ
tains possession as well as of its ter
minus, Pyramid harbor.
