THE ORDER OF LOUISIANA.
A PnSriotic Hereditary Society Tn- tended, to Commemorate the
 Great Louisiana Purchase.

Denver, Col, Dee. 30.-The Ameri- can Order of Louisiana, organized preliminarily in Denver, December 30, has adopted it's constitution and elected Will c. Ferril, of Denver. cura- tor of the Colorado State Historical society, president. This is a patri- otic hereditary society, and the or der may be instituted in the follow ing states and territories of the Lou isiana PlAchase: Arkansas, Colorado: Indian territory, Iowa, Kansas, Lou isiana, Minnesota, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, North Dakota Oklahoma, South Dakota and Wyoming.
 Owing to the disputed question as to whether Oregon, Washington. Idaho, Texas and eastern New Mex leo formed a part of the Louisiana purchase, these states were omitted pending further investigation. The constitution provides an eligibility list of prominent Spanish, French and American explorers in the pur- chase territory, also those distin- guished in the army, navy and civil
 
 tories from 1903 to 1903. The na- tional commissioner and his secre- tary, President David k. Francis and his cabinet, the vice-presidents, treas urer, general counsel and secretary for the Lounsiana Purchase Worlds fair at St. Louis, together with the commissioners from the purchase states and territories to this fair, are included in the eligibility list. The charter members are all Coloradoans and include Dr. Clayton Parllhill, Frank E. Carstarphen. l. N. Stevens, Thomas J. O'Donnell, F. w. Loveland, Herbert Belford, G. c. Bartels, w. V. Elliott, Arthur C. Bartels and Will C.. Ferril. Lineal male descendants of those who performed the services outlined in the constitution of the order are legible to membership.

THE MYSTERY CLEARED UP.
Police Claim to Have II Perfect Case Again the Murderer of
 Jnmes II. Hay.

Salt Lake City, Utah, Dec 30.-With the finding of 3s-caliber revolver not far from the scene of the crime, the police of this city have in their possession what is believed to be the last element necessary to clear up the mystery of James +. Hays mur- der on the night of December 16. The weapon was found buried in the mud and State streets, and has been traced by the police to the second hand store, where it was bought a short time before the murder, accord ing to the police, by a man answering the description held on the charge of having committed the crime. The cumulated evidence they will have a clear case against Mortensen when the case comes up for trial Morten- sen, however, continues to affirm his innocence and positively denies all knowledge of the affair.
 Hay had been missing for two days before his body was found bur- jed in a trench in suburb of this city, and it was reported that he had absconded with $3,s0o in gold which was alleged to have been paid to him as secretary of the Pacific Lumber Go. by Peter Mortensen, contractor. Telegrams were sent to the police of various cities asking them to watch for Hay. The finding of the body with bullet in it created a sen sation in this city, Hay being a prom inent and well-known young man. The whole affair was surrounded with mystery, but suspicion finally centered about Mortensen, the body being found not far from his resi- dence, and he was placed under ar rest.
 Nothing has ever been found of the missing $3,S00.

Some of his experiences therein have served for subjects of his later literary work. His medical studies were carried on in the University of Louisville. and later at. Bellevue Hos pital Medical College, New York. Aftes brief period of practice In Alabama he removed to New York city, where he quickly became a prominent figure
 in the profession, taking almost at once a position on the teaching force of his alma mater. and also an active part in society proceedings and medical matters generally. Since then his record is before the profession; 1t IS needless to say that 1t Is an honorable one. and one that includes numerous and valuable contributions to the sum of medical knowledge. It is indeed by his practical work in surgery that he is best known to the general profession and this has made his name familiar one to every practicing physician. Ills contributions to surgery and other de- partments need not be enumerated; they include not only many. articles in the current medical literature. but also well-known text book and other
 works of note. It is not only as scientific medical writer that he r' known. he has contributed also to gem

way from Europe or Southern Africa. a distance equal to three -fourths of the circumference of the earth, the route being So tortuous. We think of the Japanese being quite near to the scene of disorder, yet their troops must sail A distance as great as \that from New York to Chicago. However, great dis tances were not the only natural ob- stacles which delayed the allies. as will appear when we come to consider the location of Tientsin and Pekin. and the nature of the surrounding country.
 To the general reader. there always exists one great artificial obstacle to learning about China, and that is: 1t was a rocky road through the names of the Spanish American war, then 1t was still rockier in the Transvaal, and now the Chinese zlgzags are enough to make one cross-eyed and dizzy.
 Fortunately, Chinese names are like their dragons. less terrible than they look, It will be worth while. then, to pause briefly for a few simple, general rules which will enable any one to pro- nounce ordinary Chinese names with a fair degree of accuracy.
 In the first place their names are comparatively easy because they are pronounced just as they are spelled. As there is almost no similarity between the English and Chinese languages. no attempt can be made to produce their spelling, but only to represent the sound of the Chine word. That Is to say, the English spelling is altogether phonetic Therefore. If you pronounce a word just as it Is spelled, you can not go far wrong.
 Pronounce oh soft, as in church, and j soft like the French j, equal to zh. Pronounce a before consonant as in at and of American, but never as in hat. Short as in them; If given an acute accent. pronounce as in they. Short i as in thin; if accute accent, pronounce as In machine.
 Pronounce o before a consonant as in long, otherwise as in oh.
 lS14-Pekin must be approached over a marshy plain by the Pei Ho. wind ing shallow stream. which frequently | takes up its bed and walks. At Tien Tsin it is less than 2So feet wide. and at it's mouth there is bar only four feet below the surface at ebb tide. Con- sequently the city is safe from any at tack by warships, and an invading force must overcome not only the Chi nese themselves. but also many natur- al obstacles. The task of the allied troops resembles that of man who undertakes to tear down bumble- bees nest. Individually the Chinese are not formidable. but there are such swarms of them that an invader must make himself invulnerable 10 attack on all sides. On the plain between Tien Tsin and Pekin there are said to be l00 citier and towns. containing d million of people. each eager to cut a dike, Wa.-l1V St "a rliOO soldiers nyaru haIl a coRvoy of supplies, mislead. poison. or by any treachery destroy the hated foreign devils.
 A foreign army must transport ev- erything, food. tents. even filterinT and distilling apparatus. for the water found in the soil is not fit for a Chris tian to drink heinz largely a solution of dead Chinamen.
