First Chinese Junk to Visit
European Waters.

La Fleur de Lotus is the name Civ
en- to a Chinese junk which has been
fitted out for the Paris Exposition by
Frenchman named Henri Bear de
Bourdonnel. 1t started on it's long
voyage Tuesday last. Captain Bour-
donnel having as his companions
countrymen and his wife, French
sailor, nine Annamites and nine Chi
nese. With a fair wind the junk will
make eight knots an hour, and it is
expected that, all beng well, she will
arrive at her destination some time in
May. She calls at Saigan, Singapore,
Colombo and Alden en- route, and will
be towed through the Suez Canal.
Some months ago Captain Bourbon
mel conceived the idea that he could
procure for himself fame and money
if he could succeed in taking the first
Chinese junk to Europe. He accord
ingly purchased one OF about 1000 pic

10000 mile sail. 1t was strengthened
provided with comfortable saloon
and a considerable quantity of ballast
was taken aboard 10 steady it. The at
tempt is no doubt a venturesome one
but given ordinary weather Captain
Bourdonnel does not expect much diff
fculty in achieving his object. The
ordinary Chinese junk is a strong ves-
sci. 1t is frequently met with far out
on the boisterous Chinese sea. Cap
tain Bourdonnei's vessel is one of the
largest OF the kind, being 70 feet long
and 20 feet wide. The Captain takes

she told several friends she intended
TO get the money.
II there be sufficient inducement to
perjury in $4,000. there can be no trou-
BILE In finding witnesses to swear
away the life of an innocent man for
a share of 100000. 1t is positive that
if the detectives know the assassins OF
the late Mr.. Goebel, the reward OF
$5, 900 would have been enough to in
duce them to act, provided they had
no reason to expect more. For that
sum even an unscrupulous detective
might hesitate, however to work up a
case against an innocent man, whilst
100000 might prove to be a tempta-
ton to great to wlthstand.-Philadel-

sentatives of the Central West Vir-
ginia Telephone Company and made
arrangements for free service between
this city and Parkersburg and for the
regulation of long distance service in
Ohio and West Virginia over the lines
of the independent systems under the
control of the two companies named.
According to the arrangements

tween towns, the same as under the
present operating system.

Rewards That Invite Perjury,

The offer by the Kentucky Leglsla-
ture of the preposterous reward OF
100000 fer the arrest of the assassin
or assassins of the late William Goe-
bel will almost certainly lead to the
apprehension, IL not to the conviction,
of somebody, guilty or innocent. 1t
was instantly followed by an an
Inouncement that they know the guilty
persons. This may mean that they
have proof against one or more men,
and have been waiting for this action
of the Legislature; or it may mean
chat for this money they will produce
good eoough Morgan"
The recent revelations in Missouri
murder case show to what depths of
perjury a witness may go for re-
ward. The police of st. Louis had
been severely censored for their fall
ure to arrest the three assassins of a
Mr.. Bennett, a prominent citizen. This
led them to drag-net a number of per-
sons without just cause, among them
three young men known to be COM
paniOns. A reward of $4,000 was Of
fered for evidence that would convict
A negro woman came forward and
identified the three young men as the
assassins. She had seen them run
ming away from the victim; she had
seen the face of one. Mcdonald, dis
tinctly, and heard the Others call him
by name. A number of trustworthy
witnesses testified that Mcdonald was
miles away from the scene, and he was
acquitted; but the others were con-
victed on her testimony and sentenced
to death. Eight times the day of exc
cutlon was fixed. but the governor dis
| trusted the woman and each time is

last he commuted their sentence to

this same woman, as a witness in an
other murder case, swore to what was

perjury and sent to prison for seven
years. A detective, who looked up her
record, discovered that she had been a

The Concert of the Marietta
Orchestra.

It has been our pleasure to attend
several of the rehearsals of the Mari
etta Orchestra and We could not but
notice their marked improvement. In
der the direction of Mr.. Schmiedeke
they have attained precision and ex-
preston they have long been strangers
TO. Particularly was this noticeable
in the overture of William Tell Zone
of the numbers of the concert) which
they played with vim and precision
that might have been the envy of
much more pretentious orchestras. Ii
gave us an opportunity Of hearing the
vast Improvement of Mr.. Fred Wehrs
on the cello, and the beautiful tone
and execution of Mr.. Schmiedeke's
oboe. The latter is to favor us with a
solo on his favorite instrument and
we can promise the audience a per-
formance rarely excelled. s.

Kurtz Is In Luck.

Columbus, o., March 2.-Promises
made to Kurtz men by the State ad-
ministration to help get the Cox ripper
enacted are to be redeemed next week,
according to one of the Hanna Sena-
tors. Cox sent word weeks ago that he
wanted the Bushnell ad interim ap-
pointments left unacted upon until
the ripper was disposed of, and this
was done. Now not only are these
pigeon-holed appointments to be TAX
en- out and the dust brushed off them,
burt the owners of several heads which
were doomed to decapitation have
been pardoned for their political Of
fenses.
According to this information the
two OH Inspectors, Charles l.. Kurtz
and James Luckey, are to be confirm
ed. So is everybody else, with the ex-
ception OF State Insurance Commits
sioner Matthews, because Captain
Matthews worked for the ripper bill,
and that no invidious distinctions be
made in the list Of pardons, ne also
may be confirmed. providing he and
the Governor can agree on the date OF
his resignation taking effect In Its
attitude toward these recess appoint
ments the Nash administration has
has turned to the right about. Not on
ly Is Mr.. Kurts persona grata, but he
has been consulted about State APP
pointments yet to be made.

Bills Introduced by MIR. Mid.
dleswart.

lion. c. C. Middleswart, of this coun-
ty, introduced two bills in the house
this week that are of special interest
to the people of Washington and Nor
gan counties.
The first is bill to permit fishing
with nets and seines in the Musking-
um in the two counties and in the Ohio
river along the borders of Washington
county. This bill was introduced up
on the urgent demands made by the
fishermen of this county. They claim
that people living on the West Virgin
ia side of the river come across, fish
with nets and seines and going back
TO the West Virginia side are out of
danger from arrest for the violation of
Ohio's laws. The river is under the
criminal jurisdiction of Ohio and Ohio
fishermen, therefore, do not enjoy the
same advantages as their neighbors
across the river.
The advocates of the passage of the
bill claim thta the law is dead letter,
as it is openly violated without pun
fshment to the violators, and that Ohio
fishermen should be given the same
chance as the West Virginians. 1t is
said that the bill will meet with oppo-
sition from the Fish and Game Com
mission
The other bill introduced by Mr..
Middleswart is for the purpose of ex-
empting from taxation the buildings
which are the property OF historical
societies. Among such buildings is
included the old land Office of the Ohio
Company, situated on Washington
street, and recently purchased by the
Society of Colonial Danes. This build
ing is to be reftted and will be pre-
served for historical purposes and it is
nothing more than right that it and
others of its kind should be exempt
from taxation.

American Women in the
Twentieth Century.

If the nineteenth century has been
better than those preceding it, and If
the twentieth is to be still better than
the nineteenth, the bettermen must
belooked for in the benign and bene-
ficent influence of an emancipated
Christian womanhood. At the very
opening of this century, Napoleon, in
the course of conversation with Nine.
Campau. remarked: "The old system
of instruction seems to be worth Meth
ing. What is yet lacking in order that
the people be properly educated?'
Mothers" replied Nine Campau. So
forcibly struck was the Emperor by
this terse and significant answer, that
he added: "Yes, here is a system of
education in enc word. Be it your
care then, to train up mothers who
shall know how to educate their child
ren."
If this great truth were applicable
to the beginning of the nineteeneh.
the same may, with equal reason, be
enunciated at the dawn of the twen-
tieth century. The good home is the
best of schools, and never was there
such an urgentdemand for good homes
as today. lone good mother" said
George Herbert, 'is worth hundred
school-masters. In the home she is
lodestone to all hearts and loadstar to
all eyes. Imitation of her is constant
Imitation which Bacon likens 10 a
globe of precepts."
Example is more potent than pre-
cept--it is in fact, instruction in ac-
ton. It is teaching without words,
often exemplifying much more than
tongue can utter by way of good coun-
sell The best of precepts are, in the
face of bad example, Of small avail.
The example is followed, the precepts
unheeded.
What the twentieth century calls for
is women capable of inspiring their
sons with high ideals. The great
curse of the average man today is
commonness-the Lack of inspiring
ideals. Browning once declared ; "It
is not what man does that exalts
him, but what he should do" To this
Charles Kingsley adds; Let any one
set in his heart to do what is right,
and ere long his brow Is stamped with
all that goes to make up the heroic ex-
preston" Lack of aspiring ideals?
Yes; look around and seen the thous-
ands of farmers, for instance, who new
er rise above oxen and wheat; OF ply
siciars, never superior to prescriptions
and diseases; of lawyers; never super
ior to briefs and pleas. The ideals of
the multitude are rarely noble. Mil
lions of human beings never get out of
the basement of their lives. What we
want-what the twentieth century
cries out for--is mothers to give man
kind high aspiration and great
hought-models.- Trib-
