Captain S. P. Emmerson, who has
Just died in Denver, was distinguished
as the leader of company of irregular
Confederate forces, commonly known
as guerrillas, who hoped to capture or
destroy Chicago. Captain Emmerson
escaped capture on that occasion by
stealing a horse and riding away.
Many of the exploits of his command
were as daring as those of the Guam
trell, Morgan or Moseby raiders. He
was once captured in Kentucky, but
escaped by cutting a hole in the roo,
of his prison. Captain Emmerson was
a warm friend to the James boys. He
never recovered from the grief caused
by the fall of the Confederacy.

1t is with some surprise that one
reads in recent report of the director
OF the National Observatory at Athens
that, taking area into account, earth
quakes are about twice as frequent in
Greece as they are in Japan. The lat
ter country has been looked upon as
par excellence the land OF earthquakes.
1t would appear that its earthquakes
are, upon the whole. more severe than
those In Greece. although the great ar
Eehitectural monuments OF Greece have
suffered much from seismic disturb

to make another attempt to send arms

According to the results of studies by
Prof. A. E. Verrill the beautiful Ber-
muda Islands are merely the remnant
of an island, very much larger than
the present entire group, but which
has sunk in the ocean. The original
island had an area of 300 or 400 square
miles, whereas the Bermudas today are
only about twenty square miles in
area. Within comparatively recent
period, says Prof. Verrill, the Bermu-
das have subsidized at least 80 or 100
feet. Their base is the summit of an
ancient volcano, while their surface
is composed of shell sand drifted into
hills by the wind and consolidated by
inflltration.

Glow Church, and "High Church

LVABGOUA1AtA1A DESaSus
Oshkosh, Wis, Nov. 23.-The seces-
sion of Trinity Episcopal church of
this city, the. largest Episcopal church
In the diocese Of Fond du Lac, and
splitting up the diocese, seems immi-
nent and inevitable. Trinity is ''low
church." and Bishop Grafton, at the
head of the diocese, is extremely high
church." Through his personal influ-
ence practically all the churches in the
diocese, outside of Trinity, have
adopted the ritual and vestments.
Trinity has steadfastly refused, and
the result has been a breach ever
widening between the bishop and the
church. Matters We're brought to a
climax by the extreme ritualism of
Coadjutor Bishop Weller at Fond du
Lac last week. The ceremonies We're
so nearly like those of the Roman
Catholic church that few could tell the
difference.

Constantinople, Nov. 25.-The porte

COMPENSATION PROMISED.

England WEN indemnify Germans
Treated a:."cccsSnrilH Severe.
Berlin. Mo-. 2o. In the reichStag
Herr MGsse. National Liberal, charged
the German government with leaving
it's subjects unprotected in the Trans
wall. Baron Richthofen, the minister
of foreign affairs, replied that Great
Britain was justified in Kidding the ter
ritory of undesirable persons. In re-
gard to other Germans who had been
expelled from South Africa and those
who had been treated with unneces-
sary severity, the foreign minister
stated that England had promised to
make compensation and that negotia-
tons on this subject We're now pro-
ceeding. Some of the claims which
had been forwarded to the German
government from South Africa, he de-
clared, were manifestly untenable.

Washington, Nov. 25.-Realizing the
critical condition of the negotiations
at Pekin, the United States govern
mcnt has appealed directly to the
powers to make arrangements which
will prevent further trouble in Crina.
The government is satisfied that un-
less the powers modify the conditions
which the ministers at Pekin are APP
parently anxious to impose. the nego-
tiations will come to nothing and there
will be grave danger of a renewal Of
hostilities involving the whole Of
China and threatening the peace of
the world. The details of the appeal
have not been disclosed, but they are
understood to be of such a character
that the powers will be obliged to
make known
Without Qualification
their intentions as to China's future.
1t is believed here that in this action
the government will have the hearty
support of Russia and France, and
perhaps Japan. Some responses are
already at hand, and it is stated that
generally our advances have been we'll
ISCSlNcu, anu lle SletS uSpsLl tllleAL
presses satisfaction with the progress
so far achieved. Details of the radical
action of the government cannot be
obtained, but enough is known to JUS
tify the assertion that the United
States has asked the powers to put
aside their individual desires and en-
deavor to make an agreement to serve
as basis for direct negotiation with
the Chinese government which will be
for the
Good of All Concerned.
The government was reluctantly forced
to take this step. The president and
his advisers felt, however, that the
foreign personalities at Pellin have
succeeded after many weeks of con-
ference in putting the difficulties be-
tween China and the powers in an
even mere hopeless tanGle than before.
To bring order out of this condition OF
diplomatic chaos is the earnest desire
of the government. Whether any
good results come the government has
no means of knowing, but it feels that
it's duty to itself and its regard for
the peace of the world justified it in
abandoning the hope or bringing: about
a settlement through the ministers at
Pekn and trusting to the sense of
justice among the European nations
and Japan to remove the menace to
their OWE welfare now confronting
them.
