sltion- On lhe other hand, IL is alse

here certainly is that Great Britain

so doing.
Distrust Of Ii Hung Chang deepens
and 1t Is now accepted that the Rus
sian scheme was arranged after con-
sultAtion with him. On this point an
interesting statement was made yes
terday by the Chinese Minister, who is
strong adherent or Earl Ii, and WAS
once his personal secretary. Asked
whether he had received a telegram
from Ii Hung Chang urging him To
persuade England TO accede TO the Rus
sian proposal, the Minister replied in
the Affirmative.

at the instigation Of Ii Hung
Chang, TO remove her forces from the
capital, and has thereby taken the
first step toward general peace. do
not believe Russia's move has double

Asked il he had succeeded in per-

Salisbury, and am anxiously awaiting
his reply. So much depends upon it
that America and Germany are hang

Speaking unofficially for moment,

Element. The Chinese people generally
are most anxious for peace. They are
sick of war and would welcome any
negotiations which would have as a
conclusion a mutual commercial basis
on more permanent lines than hereto
fore between the two countries. Earl
Ii, whatever you may assert to the
contrary, is pro-European and not pro-
Russian. Moreover, he is not philan-
thropically inclined and does not seek
for peace and reorganization Of the
western commercial dealings because it
would benefit China. He Is progress
sive, and in this Is Numerically op-
posed to Prince Tuan"
To the further question whether the
Chinese Government still existed as an

wered: Yes, in its entirety. 1t has

Ready to Convene.

Indianapolis, Ind, Aug. l5.-The
first days session of the national or
third party convention was devoted
entirely to addresses, no formal &C.
ton being taken beyond the appoint
ment of q committee of three to con-
fer with the anti-imperialists, whose
convention opens this morning. The
sentiment among the independents
was strong against the candidates. of
both Mckinley and Bryan and seemed
to indicate that q third ticket would
be the outcome of their convention,
although there is also a desire to COM
bine with the anti-imperialists if pos
sible, while there is scarcely a posi-
bility of the anti-imperialists nomi-
mating a ticket. The convention of
the independents" was called to or
der Tuesday afternoon in the Com
mercial club rooms by Thomas NJ. Os-
borne, of Auburn, N. Y. The number
of delegates was not large, but en-
I thusiasm was plentiful. Louis R.

Where 1t Rain. Frox,.

Every once in awhile stories are
brought out about extraordinary show
ers Of fish, of bloody snow, ETC., the
latest thing being Of a ship captain far
out on the Atlantic who ran into a dust
shower so heavy he had to set his crew
shoveling the dust from the decks
when the weight began to get danger
GUS. To this be there added a tale:
1t rains frogs in Arizona. The old
timers believe there is no doubt of it,
though they cannot explain whence the
frogs were originally lifted" But this
much is straight-let there be q sum-
mer rain along the line Of the southern
Pacific In southwestern Arizona, and
behold the next morning every little
pool has a myriad of little lean green
frogs with marvellous croaking powers.
They don't wait for nightfall like their
more civilized brothers elsewhere, but
keep up the music by day as by night.
They live where water m only
about once a year. They can't live
yer the interim under the sun baked
black rocks. They assuredly haven't
hoped from the Colorado river, and
they are all Of a size to boot. If they
didn't come from the ground or from
the river, they must have come from
the skies.
And that's what the Hassayampers
firmly believe.-Arizona Graphic.

instructions were read to the jury by
Judge Cantrill at four o'clock Tues
day afternoon in the Powers trial,
and Judge James Sims made the open
ing argument to the jury for the de-
tense. The instructions to the jury
are considered by defendants attor-
ney as being entirely too severe, and
tend to lessen Powers chances of &C.

fdent of a verdict in mis- favor.

A Close Call.


Once I sailed these seas, where are
the cannibals, with a corpulent cap
tain. Whenever a chief came on board
the first thing he was sure to admire
was the proportions of our gallant tar,
and the chief would feel him and
smack his own lips and turn I'D his
W eyes at the prospect of SO much
fatness-going to waste, as one may
say. These attentions our skipper very
much disliked.
Well, one day both boats were alb
sent trading, and 1t fell suddenly calm.
1.-THE old man" (the ~forecastle name for
a skipper) and self were the only
whites on board. The strong currents
caught the vessel and carried her on
to the rocks, and we could get no bot
tom a hundred yards from the shore.
The underflow from the waves kept
her from striking. The natives gath.
cred on the cliffs, as ravens to a Al
cass, waiting for the catastrophe. I
took of all my clothes, and we waited
and waited for some two hours, the
natives recognizing the captain and
telling him plainly they would eat him
at last.
The strain on our nerves may be
imagined. At last the captains gave
way. "Goodby, c., old fellow" he
said. '"Those beasts will have me in
the ovens at once. You may escape
you are thin. If you see my old girl
