TWILIGHT.

The following pretty little poem is
from the pen of our townswoman,
Mrs. Lulu Cooke Don Carlos, and is
found in the current number of the
Pail Mall, Magazine:
In the primrose tinted sky
The wan little moon
Hangs like jewel dainty and rare,
And one fair star of palest gold.
Cleans and trembles there;-
Down in the distant valley the daylight
fades away.
And now the mist-covered mountains
Cloaks them in purple and gray
Tn en- darken the dusky shadows,
And in the waning light
Day gathers her robes about her.
And kisses her sister--Night.

JAPANESE POLICE ETIQUETTE.
Rules OF Department for Their Inter-
course with Foreigners.

huies or Department for Their Inter-
course with Foreigners.
Chief Inspector Of Police Ikigami
Shiro of Hiogo Ken, Japan, takes a
fatherly as well as a disciplinary inter
est in the force under his command.
He wishes the men to win the respect
OIL foreigners by conforming to the
strangers ideas where circumstances
permit. He has given instructions to
the commanding officers of stations on
the subject and some of them have
been translated into English. The
chief inspector tells his officers and
men that they should not make calls
on foreigner in the early morning,
at meal times or late at night if they
can help it. At any rate they should
pay good attention to their clothing
prior to the call, and they should never
call out for admittance to a house, but
should use the bell or gong provided,
or II there,is neither, then knock with
their fingers, and before entering the
house they are enjoined to clean their

to the house nor take a seat until
asked to do SO, they are informed, and
when you call on foreigner in pri-
vate clothing take off your hat and
overcoat outside the room and leave
them in the proper place. The former
Is, however, sometimes carried into the
room" Some of Ikigami Shiro's di-
rections as to conduct might be pressed
upon the uniformed forces in the for
eigners' countries. Dress your hair
and beard always" he says; dirty
clothing and an unkempt head are an
insult in civilized countries. Cut the
finger nails properly and keep them
clean. Keep your boots clean and
your handkerchief clean. Don't spit in
or out Of the room; never smoke in
Of lady; it is a gross insult
to put out your hand to lady before
she does. Greetings to foreigner are
conveyed by a simple bow; don't shake
hands with them if you are not invited
to do So" These are few of Mr. Xxi
gami Shiro's lessons in department for
his force

Meeting Called.

Agent J. Blair Shoenfelt has called
a Goa vention of physicians and of
Cher okee representatives for today at
Fort Gibson for the purpose Of taking
some definite action relative to the
smallpox in the Cherokee nation.
The agent proposes to act with the
CherO kee authorities in dealing with
the disease, and the government will
no dou bt assume its portion of the ex-
penses. The Cherokee government
is not in shape to make an apprOpria-
tion at present, as it would cost more
to call the National council together
than it would to take care Of the dis
ease.
DR.. b. f. Fortner went down to
Fort Gibson to day, to represent vi

Many Questions to be Left to Separate
Conventions to be Drawn Up Later
Troops Should be Retained.

London, Dec. 11.-"Reports from Chi
nese sources says the Shanghai cor
respondent of the Times, wiring Mon
day, point to the probability that seri-
GUS negotiations for peace will begin
forthwith. 1t is believed that a short
preliminary protocol is in process of ar
rangement, leaving many questions in
Guiding commercial subjects, to separate
conventions to be drawn up later.
"The powers should retain their
troops in China until these questions
are settled and until tangible evidence
Is given that China honestly intends to
fulfill her engagements.
Progressive Cinnamon regard the
present as great opportunity to over
throw the reactionary Manchu methods
and to inaugurate regime of national
progress.
1T is urged that the powers shall in
sist upon the cancellation of the claim
of the present heir apparent, Prince
Tuan's son, and the substitution Of an
heir of full age from any connection
with the Tuan party. Such man is
available and the step is declared to be
legally possible"

VAR REvENUE REDUCTION BILL.
Debate on the Measure Opens in the
House.

Washington Dec. 1.-THE debate on
the war revenue reduction bill opened
in the House to-day, but was confined
to two speeches, one by Mr.. Payne of
New York, chairman of the ways and
means committee on behalf of the ma
jority, and one by Mr.. Swanson of vir-
ginia, on behalf of the minority. The
house adjourned early to permit the
hall to be decorated for the exercises In
connection with the centennial celebra-
tion tomorrow. Before the war reve-
nue. reduction bill was taken up a reso-
luton was adopted for the appointment
of a special committee of five members
to investigate the death of Oscar L.
Booz of Bristol, Pa, who died recently,
it is alleged as result Of hazing re-
ceived while a cadet at West Point.
This course was taken over the head
of the military committee, which re-
ported in favor of allowing the war
department to conduct the inquiry.
