QUEEN ALMOST BLIND.
A Total Loss of Sight In the
Left Eye Is Reported.

London, May 1S.-Queen Victoria is
eye and the sight of the other is almost
obscured by cataract. She is, therefore,
almost blind. Dr. Pagenstecher, a no
ted German Oculist, who made this dis
cOvery of the present condition, advises
an operation on the queens right eye
as the only way to prevent total blind
ness.
The queen appeared with spectacles
today while driving at Kensington.
causing considerable comment as this
is contrary to her custom.
There have been strenuous denials,
official and Unofficial for some time that
the queens eyesight was nearly gone
At the time of the jubilee there We're
reports of her imminent blindness, but
these were vehemently denied. But it
was not long ago that the queens eyes
gave her so much more discomfort than
formerly and it became so apparent to
failing that DR.. Pagenstecher was sum-
mOned to see her. He made an eXami-
nation of her eyes by the most scientific
methods and discovered the melancholy
fact that the left eye was sightleSS and
the right rapidly becoming so.
The contract over her right eye had
developed to such an extent that DR..
Pagenstecher advised operation upon
it. This advice has caused great ap-
prehenSiOn among the royal family be-
cause of the queens advanced age and
for cataract. He has assured the royal
family that he would not have advised
it unless convinced that it would be
performed successfully.

MAIL CARRIERS STRIKE.
Paris People Compelled to Do With
out Their Letters.

Paris May 18.-Owing to the refusal
of the senate to vote the bill providing
increased pay for postmen, recently
passed by the chamber of deputies
about 500 poStmen refused to go to work
today and later the whole force, num-
bering 5000 men, went out on strike
AS a result there were no mail deliver
les this morning. Evn the embassies
have not received their letters. The
men are standing in groups outside the
pOstOffice.
Later the postmen had an open air
meeting around the postoffice and were
addressed by the under postal secre-
tary, M Mougeot who vainly urged
them to return to work. The strikers
responded by demanding an increase in
pay.
The postoffice was besfeged by busi-
ness men this morning who demanded
their letters. NJ. Mougeot has arrang-
ed for a delivery this afternoon. The
sorting is being done by clerks who
have been placed at the disposal of the
postoffice authorities by the big COM
merciaI houses and banks. They are
under the direction of the auxiliary
sorters The mail will then be deliver
ed by soldiers, conducted by police
men.
The absence of a regular mail deliv-
cry has caused great disturbance in
business circles.
The cabinet met today, considered the
strike and decided to severely punish
the leaders.

S74, and the total assets are $29,474.
The trustees of Cumberland universl-
ty reported that the number of students
in all departments was 225, of whom
81 were attending the theological school.
The total endowment is $751; O41.
The committee on Sunday schools re-
ported that the receipts from Children s
day were very considerably larger than
the previous year, enabling the commit
tee to give back to the synods rs per
cent of their offerings and at the same
time to do some advance Sunday school
work in localities where it seemed to be
the most needed.
The permanent committee on SySte-
matte beneficence reported that anoth-
er year has not lesSened the difficulties
nor have we Surmounted all of the OBJ
StacleS in the way of systematic and
prOpOrtiOnate giving. The development
of the work is task for years, attend
ed with many hindrances and discour-
agements and requiring much patience,
more wisdom and incessant persistence.
Too great stress cannot be given to the
divine truth that the giving of money
for religious purposes from unseIfsh
motives, is a part of Christian WOr-
ship
The board of missions and church ex-
tension reported that the receipts were
the largest ever made in the history of
the board. and yet the money aVaiIa BILE
for home mission purposes has been so
small as to seriously embarrass the eff
forts in the home field. The churches
generally seemed to be more alive to
the interests OF the foreign field and
the committee regarded this an in
dication of better things both at home
and a abroad But few fields had been
entered since the meeting of the last
general assembly, the board having
confined itself mainly to the fields pre-
viously occupied with an earnest effort
to develop the resources therein.
The board of publication reported
that the resources in excess of habiIi-
ties were $147, ,907.

ATKINSON'S PLAN
For Settlement of the Philippine
Problem.

Cambridge, Mass, May 1S.-The Cam
bridge Anti-Imperialist association held a
well attended meeting last night and
listened to speech by Edward Atkinson,
who took for his subject Criminal Ag-
gression; the Way cut
After dwelling upon the dangers of an
imperialist policy, Mr.. Atkinson said:
.Ihere is one way, and perhaps the
only one, by which not only all that
may be rightfully or lawfully done by the
United States be attained, but a precedent
may also be established leading to peace
and good will among all nations. That
way is by agreement among the great
naval and commercial powers of the world
to neutralize the Philippine islands, to aid
them in establishing orderly govern
ment, and to open them on equal terms
granted to all nations to the commerce
of the world
What stands in the way of making the
Philippine islands and the seas within
their jurisdiction neutral?
occupa ton by Spain under a grant of do
from Spanish oppression. To subjugate
them would, according to our code of
morality, be act of criminal aggres-
sion.
We ought not to assume this responsi-
bility, nor ought to give any pretext
to any other nation to assume it. 1t is
for the interest of this country, of Great
Britain, of Russia, of Germany France
and Japan that these islands shall become
the sanctuary of free commerce, open to
all alike"

ANOTHER WRONGED WIFE.
Mrs. Dora E. Dolman Satisfied That
Marriage Is Failure.

Dora E. Dolman has filed a suit in
the district court for a divorce from
her husband, Frank J. Dolman, after a
married life of only eight months
Mrs. DOlman was a widow when she
married Frank Dolman last September.
She owned little house in North To-
peka that had been left her by her first
usband, as well as some personal prop
erty. Her first husband also left her
three children.
In the petition which she files in the
divorce suit she claims that her huS-
band began to abuse her before they
had been married three weeks, and that
three times during the last eight
months his wages have been gar
nisheed for his own private expenses,
and she has had to pay debts for him
so that he could draw his wages The
only clothing he has purchased for her
has been a pair of shoes. Several weeks
ago he went to Omaha, where he is now
staying.
Mrs. Dolman says her husband is as
destitute of property as he is of char
acter," and that he seems to think her
province in life is to support him in
idleness and take his abuses without
complaint
Mrs. Dolman seems to hold a different
opinion, and therefore asks for a, di-
vorce, $500 alimony. and the restora-
ton of the name she had before she
married Dolman, Dora E. Middaugh.

BRITISH MINISTER ILL.
Sir Claude Macdonald Leaves China
In State of Bad Health.

Vancouver, B. c., May 1S.-Accord-
ing to advices from China received by
the Empress of India, Sir Claude Mac
Donald, British ambassador at Pekin, is
a very sick man.
He sailed from Shanghai for Europe
April % with Lady Macdonald On the
same boat, the Prince Heinrich, was
Princess Irene, wife of Prince Henry of
Prussia. Sir Claude MacDonald'S state
of health was such as to forbid any
one seeing him. Several matters which
it was hoped would be settled by the
minister had to be left in allegiance.
1t is said that the illness of the British
minister is nothing more less than
the Hing-Pobking-P -POvarnish poison.

classes to the number of 1900 gathered
today to guard the church, parochial
residence and convent of St. Patrick'S s
parish, East st. Louis, in anticipation
of the arrival of Vicar General Cluse,- a
German priest, and the newly appoint

For the first time in its history the
church was locked, bolted and barred

siderable satisfaction on the appoint

Recently a delegation was sent to
Washington to see Mgr. MartineHi and

of the crowd gathered to prevent him

STATE OF JOHN BROWN.
Subject of Mr.. MacLennan's Remarks
at Chicago.

4 Chicago, May 1S.-At the Associated
Press banquet last night Frank P. Mac
Lehman of the Topeka State Journal
responded to the toast, The State of
Old John Brown He said in part:
THE state of John Brown later
heralded as the land of sunf1owers
wheat and corn, is now best known
world wide as the home of Funston and
the Twentieth Kansas. Actions speak
louder than words The real speakers
of my own state are now in the Philip
pines. The rest of US are only substi-
tutes, the home guards.
The peaceful prairies of Kansas have
been fertile in warlike products. At the
birth of the state in 1861 the civil war
was precipitated and to that conflict the
state sent more soldiers in proportion
to population than any other state in
the Union. Triumphant from the last
battlefield, in '65, Kansas changed her
swords and bayonets to plow shares to
fight against wind, drought and grass
hoppers. Then came the mortgages
from the east. ready to vanquish her,
but the new volunteers, wheat and corn,
mustered from the soil, have overcome
the notes and obligations.
