CHICAGO NOT WIDE OPEN.
Carter Harrison Says It Is the Home
of Saints.

New York. April 15.-Carter II. Harri-
son. mayor of Chicago. is in this city. He
says he came for rest and recreation.
While Mr.. Harrison did not care 10 dis
cuss politics las. night he did talk about
reform and the charges made that the
administration in Chicago favors a wide
open town ana is in league With the
criminal element.
Il believe" said he. that the proper
persons to institute any kind of reform,
dramatic or otherwise. are the peoples
officials. l do not believe it is possible to
have what is called an open town.. unless
the public wants. l do not believe that
it is possible to reform a community by
passing laws. The community cannot
cannot rise above its own level and its
level is reflected by the way IN which it
enforces its laws.
Chicago is not a wide open town. T.
is a closely shut down town in ever.
sense of the word.
Il think it is very poor policy for q
mayor to advocate the enforcement OF
blue laws or the ringing Of the cur
few bell when the people are not IN
favor of them. You cannot reform any
community by law. 1t must be done by
education"

FICTITIOUS CLAIMS.
Some of the Powers Will Pad Their
Chinese Accounts.

New York, April 15-Reports of the in
demnty to be demanded of China vary,
says the New York correspondent of the
Tribune.
Frances claim is put at Sl3 900 900. 1t
is considered more than possible in
Pekin that the powers may Jointly agree
to reduce their bills pro rata, particu-
larly if China will guarantee certain com
mercial concessions.
One difficulty in the way is that some
powers will honestly have spent the sums
they demand. Russia may be expected
to press her claim, which is considered
quite unjustifiable considering the cheap
ness with which she was able To mob
ilZe. 1t should not be forgotten that
Russia is making separate demands for
territorial and commercial privileges.

New York. April ia special to the
World from Washington says:
Captain John A Hassel who command
ed the Americans in the Boer army in
the first part of the Boer war, but is
now here. says:
The Boer cause. while it cannot be
said to be bright, is brighter than that Of
the British. The Beers have just as
good a chance to win now as the Amer
icans had before the sudden turn of good

TENDER the Boer soldiers will have a

The Beers are making their winter
quarters in the Lydenburg range, where
the English will not dare tackle them,
for they will have to cross the low,
marshy country to get there and they
have to import every pound of fodder
for their horses. The problem is not only
one of sustaining the lives of their man

NAVAL MILITIA 0FFlSH.
Indifferent to Practice Cruises-Not
Interested in War.

New York April 1.-THE Herald says:
Indifference on the part Of the naval
militia on the Atlantic and Pacific sta
tons, it is said, will prevent any Of the
organizations taking any of the usual
cruises during the coming summer, Such
drills as may occur will be limited to
the regular exercises held by each or
ganization on board the ship assigned to
it by the government.
Abandonment of cruises on a regular
man-of-war is due chiefly to the lack of
interest shown in the service last sum-
mer, when the Prairie was assigned to
take the naval militia of the Atlantic
and gulf states to sea, and to the fail
ure of any organizations to request that
ships be assigned to them for cruising
purposes this summer. The only section
which displays interest in naval instruc-
ton is on the great lakes. and upon re-
quest OF the militia organizations of H.
linois, Michigan and Ohio. the Michi-
gan has been directed to take them out
for instruction.

The Porto Ricans are waking up t.
the fact that the outside world presents
opportunities. and when the chance pre-

should avail themselves of it. 1t is but
reasonable To suppose that Immigration

Holmes in 1874. but in 1889 the subdivision
plat was vacated, and the track figured
again as lands in the assessment lists.

That's something. isn't IT? What's this

somewhere round the classic track at some
time or other and ask him what he thinks
about it.
They caught Turner good and plenty

Hildreth has second call on Woods. wh1

On the other hand 1t Is said that the rea-
