the powder so produced is combined

trips to China and has had excellent
opportunities to study the question
from every point of view:
THE idea that the Chinese could
overrun Europe" he says, is rank
nonsense. 1t might perhaps be a pos

why it could not occur-especially

Mob LoSU at Manifold.

The citizens and officers at Mans
field, o.. who prevented four Dowieite
preachers from getting off the train
at that city last Sunday, have no legal
defense for such an act, says the Chi
cago Tribune editorially. A mob of
5000 persons, apparently bent on blood
shed or violence of some kind, is said
to have been awaiting the arrival of
the elders at the station. The police
and deputy sheriffs are said to have
prevented the Zion preachers from en-
tering the town by blocking the aisle
of the car and forcing them to be car
ried past. When this operation had
been repeated on another train later
In the day, the elders gave up their at
tempts and returned to Chicago. Mans
field had carried its point for the time
being. but the procedure is not to it's
credit.

Those to whom the term ''The Yellow
Peril has become familiar look upon
it as bugbear arising from the pres
ent situation. the idea that the despis-
ed Oriental might even in the course of
a century become a dominating world
power being considered not worth a
second thought. Neither the phrase
nor the idea, however is by any means
new. The words of Lord Wolseley,
which are today taken almost as a
text by students of international af-
fairs, and upon which the novelists
are busily building fanciful tales. were
spoken nearly dozen years ago. but
in view of recent developments are
more interesting than ever.

The German emperor considers this

yellow race represents his opinions to-
day as expressed in his recent speech

There is only one railroad and that is
controlled by Russia and could be de-
stroyed more rapidly than an army
could move. The way is across a coun-
try Of wild mountains and frozen
plains that are almost unsettled. and
that could not furnish food. shelter or
provisions for an army, while the diff
culties Of transport would make it i'm
possible to carry supplies.
Russia is protected by the Ural
mountains, the Caspian sea, Caucasus
mountains and the Black sea. A few
thousand men could defend the fords
Of the Ural river from hosts. To reach
Europe through COnstantinOple would
require vessels, which the Chinese
would not have. and even if they had.
the fleets Of the nations assembled at
the Bosphorus, and artillery in the
forts at ConstantinOple could sink
them as fast as they were loaded with
troops. The possibility of the Chi
nese pouring down into India is to be
dismissed. The entire boundary Of In

that. There would be only a few
mountain passes. at most, to defend.
The only way in which the Chinese
could ever overrun Europe is by the
slow process Of migration, and that
could come only by the decay Of the
white races. In other words, the Chi
nese must first overtake us in point Of
civilization and become mentally and
practically our superiors, before ever
they could crowd us out and rule in
our places. But if Russia should be-

Do You Read During the Evening?

Have you a good light to read by? Do you want a good light? Have you found that coal oil is high in this coun- try?
 Do you want to save money? Have you ever seen the Belgium burner?
 Do you want to see it? If you read during the evening snd want the brightest and best light to read by, if you want to save money to the amount of several dollars during the next few months, you will find it to your inter- est to call and see our line of lamps. The Belgium burner uses 40 per cent less coal oil and gives about 20 per cent better light than a Rochester burner. Three gallons of coal oil goes as far in one of our Belgium lamps as five gal Ions does in a Rochester. and at the same time gives one-fifth more light. All this means the saving of the price of a lamp in one year, besides better light. We have a large line of these lamps at prices ranging from $4, com plete with shade, to $50. They are all beauties and we will be glad to show them to you whether you purchase one or not. Remember that We carry large line of Hardware Stoves and House Furnishings at bargain prices.
