BOXER MOVEMENT IN INDIA.
Revolt Against British Rule is Said tc
Re IfkeIv.

A dispatch to the New York World from
Ottawa yesterday says: Justice Tachereau
of the supreme court of Canada, who re-
Gently travelled in India, said:
There undoubtedly is a great anti-for-
eign movement in India similar to that of
the Boxers in China. Certain foreign mis-
sionaries teach the natives of India that
the British are to blame for the ills that
befal the country. When the famine and
plaques come these missionaries tell the
natives that they are the result of British
rule, and this. of course, breeds bad feel
ing.
Three hundred millions of people are
being kept down by a slender force, and
among them are not 100000 really loyal ma
tives. The Ghourks and Sikhs are supposed
to be loyal. but they are partly differed
by English, and there is no sympathy be-
tween the British officer and the native
on-commissioned officer. The real force of
British control in India rests in the want
of unity among the native population, with
its differences in religion and caste. II
united, they could with ease throw the
British into the sea.
"All the missionaries in India are told to
take the greatest precautions, so that the
natives may not get the impression that
Britain wants to force new religion upon
them. But some missionaries, more Jealous
than discreet, cause lot Of trouble and
fan the flames Of prejudice against the
white race. The converts are few and many
Of them develop into ruffians. When they
accept Christianity they at once become
outcasts. They are not permitted to battle
in the rivers drink at the public foun-
tains, and they often deteriorate into
thieves and rogues.
when in India 1 was told there was dan
ger of an outbreak but 1t has not yet
come. The natives are splendidly drilled.
and their officers say there are no better
soldiers in the world. There can be no
doubt about the anti-foreign movement in
India, and also that the British have long
and frequently been warned Of the growing
danger"

WILL NOT EyAcgATE sAMAR.
Incorrect INTERPRETATION of Gen. Mac
Arthur'A Proposition.


Adjutant General Cdrbin said today that
it was a mistake to assume that 1t had been
decided to withdrew troops from the Island
of samar. That conclusion was reached by
some people from a hasty reading of Cen
eral MacArthur's cable message Of Tues
day relating to the dispatch of troops from
the Philippines to China. The message said
on that point: Request authority to per-
manently transfer Samar Department to
Southern Luzon.' That meant. according
to Gen. Corbin. a mere change In the geo.
graphical divisions of the military depart
ments in the Philippines.
In other words, the command Of the
troops in the Island Of Samar was trans
ferred to the general in command Of the
Department Of Southern Luzon, and did not
indicate any change in the disposition Of
the troops. The Secretary of War has
acted favorably upon Gen. MacArthur's re-
quest. and the change will be made ac-
cordingly.

He Obeyed the Judge,

Over a score of years ago Judge Fltz-
gerald was appointed to the bench Of
the district that includes Pima and
Cochise counties, in Arizona. He found
on coming to Tucson that formality
was almost unknown in the courtroom.
If the days were warm, the attorneys
and attendants dispensed with coats.
This to him appeared particularly dis
respectful. He announced that smok-
ing in the courtroom would not be toll
Grated and that coats must be worn
under pain of the courts displeasure.
The grand jury was called. Among
the jurors summoned was a brawny
miner, who appeared in his usual cos
tune, a dark blue shirt and overalls.
What do you mean," Numbered the
magistrate, 'by appearing in this court
room in your shirt sleeves? Where Is
your coatT
"At home, judge" mildly returned
the juror.
"Then go and get it! No, not a word,
sir" glaring down upon the man as
he attempted to speak. ''Go home and
get your coat, sir, or I'll commit you
for contempt
The miner went silently out. He
didn't return that day nor the next,
and the judge, after issuing a bench
warrant for him, swore in another
juror About two weeks thereafter the
original miner dressed as the court de-
manded, again stepped within Judge
Fitzgerald's range Of vision. To the
irate magistrate he rendered the ex-
PLANTATION that his home and coat were
both in HarShaw mountains, near the
Mexican border, over 100 miles away,
and that he had but ,obeyed the orders
Of his honor in going home after his
coat.-Arizona Graphic.

A Shock For Carlyle.

Thackeray once told Sir John Millais
this amusing story Of Carlyle:
He had spent a day in the reading
room of the British museum and had
given a great deal Of trouble to one of
the officials, sending him up and down
ladders in search of books to satisfy
his literary tastes, and on leaving the
room he had gone up to the man and
told him that it might be some salts
faction to him to know that he had
obliged Thomas Carlyle. The official
hesitatingly answered him, with a
bland smile and the usual washing Of
hands in the air, that the gentleman
had the advantage of him, but that
probably they might have met at some
mutual friends house. He had never
heard of Thomas Carlyle.

A Qualified Decision.

"In the early days Of Occur d'Alene,' -
said an old miner, Il was working
with my partners on a claim when we
were suddenly startled by pistol shots
and, looking up, discovered man "
ing PROSTATE on an adjoining claim,
while his assailant was trying to es-
cape by logging it to the best Of his
ability. Without stopping to pick up
the injured man we gave hot chase to
the one trying to escape, whom we
finally overhauled. captured and haled
before a justice Of the peace at Mis-
sion, Ida, the nearby town.
There, as remember it, it develop
ed that 1t was an attempt at claim
jumping and that the man who had
done the shooting was the would be
jumper. The evidence was all against
him. and word came that the man who
had been shot lay all but within the
portals Of death, the physician giving
it as his opinion that he could last only
a few hours longer, and thereupon the
famed justice of the peace rendered his
decision.
''T find you guilty of murder In the
first degree said he severely as he
turned toward the prisoner at the bar
that is, provided the victim dies,
and so that decision stands to this
day"

New York, May S.-Edward Clifford
was hanged in the Hudson county, n.
j., Jail for the murder of Division Su-
perintendent w. G. Watson of the
West Shore railway in 1895.
The murder was committed because
Watson had refused to reinstate Cliff
ford as a railroad detective. Accord
ing to the evidence at his trial Clifford
began drinking when he received re-
ward for the capture Of Oliver Curtis
Perry, the train robber, few months
before the murder Of Watson. His
share of the reward is said to have
been 81, 500. On the afternoon of the
murder, Clifford went from a saloon to
the supeT.ntendent's office and de-
handed that he be reinStated. Super
intendent Watson refused and asked
Clifford why he had not turned in his
reports for week past. Clifford drew
from his hip pocket revolver and
with the remark: These are my re-
ports" shot the superintendent.
A hard fight was made to save the
murderer. The plea of insanity was
set up and Clifford was six times re-
prieved before the sentence was finally
carried out.

Our First Postal Rates.

The first law Of congress fixing rates
of postage went into effect on June /,
1892, with rates as follows:
Not exceeding 30 miles, 6 cents.
Over 80 and not exceeding go miles,
8 cents.
Over GO and not exceeding 100 miles,
10 cents.
Over 100 and not exceeding $50
miles, 1919 cents.
Over $50 and not exceeding 200

Over 200 and not exceeding $50
miles, II cents.
Over $50 and not exceeding $50
miles, 20 cents.
Over $50 and not exceeding $50
miles, % cents.
Over $50 miles, % cents.
1t would seem that postmasters Of
that day must have been greatly per-
picked in adjusting the rates on each
letter under such a diversified schedule
as the above. The weight limit was
one ounce (single), but a single letter
was a single sheet, two sheets double,
three sheets triple. four sheets a quad

not exceed an ounce.

plenty Of water. Two quarts should
be taken each day, beginning with a
glass just after rising and ending with
a glass just before retiring. If you
are inclined to stoutness, do not drink

is bad, nothing is more conducive to a
cure than drinking water either hot or
cold, but preferably the latter.-New

EIy'S Cream Balm
Advantages of the Tiger Transplanter
LODI, Wis, January 31st, 1900.

To WHOM 1T MAY CONCERN!
AS [ am the inventor Of both the
Bemis and "Tiger" transplanters, | have
often been asked what the superior
points are on the 4Tiger" over the Bemis.
| can honestly say it has many In the
first place. any one can see at glance it
is better made and has all the features
Of the Bemis combined with the i'm
proved frame, which is much easier
handled by team and driver making the
rows very straight.
The spacing of the plant by the
"Tiger" is perfect, and always in the
water, making the crop mature more
evenly as the plants all start at the same
time and have the same space OF ground
and sunlight to grow in, and the dropp-
ers do not have to guess at anything, as
they put the hand against the valve
guide when in crotch of runner, and at
the proper time the hand is pushed back
and the plant is set. This | consider
one of the most valuable points in a
transplanter. The "Tiger" is the only
transplanter on which the Check Rover
Attachment can be made to work sue
cessfully, and by the use of the same
the plants can be set in check as good as
any corn planter can check corn, there
by saving much labor by hoeing and get
ing far better growth of leaf.
BY the use of the Wheel Packers I
have been able to get almost perfect
stand of plants on loose dry ground,
when on the same ground with my old
Bemis I could not get so per cent to live,
and they would not stand so even.
The "Tiger" puts all the water at the
plant while the Bemis strings the water
along the bottom of the furrow, taking
about three times the amount of water
to make the plant grow as required by
the Tiger, and feel that can say to
any grower of tobacco with safety, that
as soon as he thoroughly understands
the Tiger" he would not have his crop
set by Bemis machine free of charge.
The Bemis has been offered in my ter
ritory from $40 to $40 less than the
"Tiger" every year, but not even one has
been sold here since | introduced the
Tiger and do not think grower in
this locality would take one as gift,
and plant his crop with it. The Tiger"
is my latest invention.
Yours very respectfully,
f. A. BEMIs.
