THE SHAME OF CHRISTEN-
DOM.

The latest issue of Leslie's
Weekly Mr.. Guy Morrison Walk
er has an impressive article I'M
der the above caption. He says:
SIT is the shame of Christian
civilization that IN the settlement
of the Chinese difficulty there
has been no recognition Of the
rights or losses of the native
Christians, and that no indemni-
ty for them has even been asked
Of the Chinese government"
While all the nations which
had Christian missions in China
have demanded and will insist
upon indemnity for the lives OF
missionaries and mission proper
~ destroyed by the Chinese they
have shown a brutal Indifference
to the sufferings and losses Of
the native Christians.
The debt which the Christian
nations owe to the Chinese cons
verts is incalculable. They have
suffered ostracism AMI persecu.
ton by their fellow countrymen.
It is stipulated III our treaty with
| China that the natives shall have
the right to embrace the Chris
tian religion and that they shall
not be molested on that account.
There has never been on the
part of the government anything
worthy to be called al effort tc
enforce this provision of the
treaty. The Chinese have muir
dered and plundered native Chris
tians with impunity. Mr.. Walker
says:
"During the seige scores Of
these native Christians were
killed, and now the survivors,
the wives, children and depend
ent relatives Of those who laic
down their lives defending oul
people are asked to return &c
their burned and pillaged homes
and begin life over again, with
no other compensation for then
losses than our prayers and oul
good wishes, while for our owl
people we demand the ransom
of kings"
The query "Where is the graf
itude Of Christendom?" is very
appropriately put by Mr.. Wake
and it should be as appropriately
answered..

BIG TEMPERANCE SCHEME.

A gigantic enterprise in the ill.,
terest of temperance has been
undertaken under the lead OF
Earl Grey, one of the most infus
entail of British noblemen.
Ae has organized the "Pablic
House Trust Company" the OBJ
iect of which is to monopolize
and regulate the liquor traM; in
all Great Britain.
It proposes to lease or pur-
chase all existing saloons there.
to acquire all licenses that may
hereafter be granted and to de-
vote all profits above 5 per cent.
to the establishment and mains
tenance OF public libraries, hoss
pitfalls, free baths, parks, etc.
Earl Grey is enthusiastic in this
work and is confident that it
will succeed.
In a recent interview, he said:
mo modern temperance advo-
cate willing to take q practical
view of the liquor problem any
longer believes in prohibition. 1t
has proved a failure in the Unit
ed States as well as in Gteat
Britain. Regulation is the. only
weapon with which we, here IN
England at least, fight the trade
iutrenched behind $500, 600,
900 $500, 600, 0oo] of annual net
profits, We figure that SO long as
the people will and must drink,
their spendings should come
back to them, instead of merely
still further fattening g%luttonous
private monopoly. We hope to
promote temperance, first, by
revolurtonizing the entire saloon
atmosphere, and secondly, by
pushing forward the sale Of non
intoxicants. A third means is by
giving tea and coffee and food
prominence over beer, whiskey
and spirits. We shall operate in
the beginning 10 the rural dis
tricts, invading the cities by de-
grees."
This plan is strongly endorsed
by many leading British news.
papers and temperance societies.
It is modelled upon the Norwe-
gian system which has been re-
markably successful.

NEW RULES FOR RmPLoYEs.
Trolley Men Must Be Sound Physical
 ly and Mentally.


 s A new rule has been made by the management of the local trolley sys- tenn. It provides that hereafter all candidates for positions in the en- poly of the company shall undergo an examination as to their mental and physical soundness; they shall fill out q blank which contains about score of questions relative to their place of birth, name of parents. how long they have been in the city, their knowledge of the same, and they must be accur- ate and prompt in distinguishing col ors. and lastly, they shall give bond of $500 to the company when they be- gin work. To the examinations as to their physical and mental health the employees have no objection, but they say the question of filing a bond of $500, or in fact of any amount, will undoubtedly be the means of diminish ing the number looking for employ ment on the local trolley lines. be- cause for the slightest accident, wheth- CT their fault or not, the company would at least try to make them pay the consequences out of the bond. or probably forfeit the whole amount in case of serious accident. and then per hapS discharge the employe. They. do not believe the bond is meant to pre- vent dereliction in duty for the pres ent system of losing wages with losing time is sufficient for that.

POLICE COURT DoINas
Powers Fined $50 and Costs for As
 saulting His Mother.

Judge Cowell held city court this morning. John Powers, 20 years old, son of Richard, a well known charac- ter in police circles. was charged with assaulting his mother. Mrs Powers upon taking the stand, raised her veil disclosing d face that was decidedly unpleasant object. Her two eyes were highly discolered and her face was bruised. The right eye was al- most closed. She said she is obliged to work every day washing because neither son nor husband will work. All she receives in return is abuse and hard knocks. Yesterday morning. shortly after o'clock, her daughter called to her to prepare breakfast. Mrs Powers had been working late and hard the night before, and consequent " was tardy in complying with her daughters request. The daughter had not got up. She began to abuse her mother and call her names and when the mother answered back the son jumped at his mother, knocked her down and beat her in q dreadful man. her about the face and eyes. Neither the daughter nor husband attempted to stop the son. The son stated that his mothers wounds were caused by her falling down stairs the previous night and that he merely pushed her during the altercation yesterday morning.
 IhlS statement was corroborated bv the daughter. It made no difference to her that she is younger than her mother, or that.her mother works hard CT and longer than she does she still thought it her mothers part to get breakfast. notwithstanding that her ffother and father do not work Young
 Powers was quite defiant on the stand.
 Before dispOSin@ of the case the court Sald the daughter should be arrested Tor perjury. The idea of a girl of her age calumniating her mother so bitter ". She knew, the court said that She was lying when she cGrrobOrated
 her brothers story and he advised the poilce to Keep a watch on her for her own sake. Such audacity the court has never seen. Young Powers'S rec
 ord was then read. after which he was nned Soo and costs.

SILkS BIG MEETING.
Great Enthusiasm Created at the
 Meeting Last Nichf

Great Enthusiasm Created at the
 Meeting Last Night.
 One of the most enthusiastic meet inGS of the Waterbury lodge of EIks that has been held in many years was the one of last night. It was draw ing close to the hour of midnight when the work was over and those who were present would have remained much longer had the meeting continued. Tn the first place there has been consid- erable interest created in the coming minstrel performance and the mem berS have become so enthusiastic that they never miss an opportunity to ad- vance the success of the performance. Last night the report of the committee showed that much progress has been made and that the rehearSalS are rap idly forging ahead. Tomorrow after noon at o'clock there will be held an- other rehearsal and Scott Snow will be again on hand to help along the production. Another important feature Of the meeting last night was the in- itiation of six candidates. Two were from Bristol and four came from our own city, and any one of them can tell you to-day that he got all that was coming to him. In fact. it will be very easy TO pick either of the gentlemen this morning if you watch very close
 
 important feature of the session was the nomination of officers for the en- suing year. Those nomina tionS were made and gave general satisfaction. and it is safe to say that whoever is nominated will be a credit to the lodge and as in the past Waterbury lodge will continue to climb the ladder of success. a feat she is accomplishing with astonishing results. If will be surprising and pleasing to the mem bers to know that Waterbury lodge has now ITO members. and it is cer- tain to pass the POO mark before an- other year has elapsed. In fact. the local lodge is growing as no other lodge in the state has done and ii will continue to do so. The election of off, cers will take place on Friday evsn- ing.
