British and Russians are in close prox-

In the house Of commons last evening
Lord George Hamilton, secretary Of state

the British and Russians at Tien-tsin over
railway siding, said he understood that
the Russian military authorities claimed
certain railways by virtue of concession
which is alleged to have been granted by
China since the disturbances commenced
in that country. Differences had arisen
owing to the construction of siding, but
the local authorities were dealing with
the matter.

Four Hundred Men Shoot at Three
Burslars-Latter Wounded.
Pennington, Mich, March 15-Four
hundred men and boys had a pitched
battle yesterday afternoon in which
over a thousand shots were exchanged
with three burglars who were hiding
in patch Of woods three miles west
of the village. After a desperate re-
sistence the men showed a white flag
from behind their cover, and when the
posse swarmed in upon them it was
found that all three were badly
wounded. They gave their names as
George Smith, John Taylor and Jim
Williamson, and their residence as
Port Huron. Williamson had been shot
through the back, head and one ell
bow; Smith was wounded in the back
and legs and Taylor in the face and
legs. The trio were handcuffed and
brought to the village, where their
wounds We're dressed. A large crowd
made such threatening gestures after
the mems capture that the officers re-
moved their prisoners to the Jail at
Pontiac. E.

I've KEEP school," said a Kentucky
mountaineer, whose eyes were opened
by visit to Berea college, but I can t
say I've ever taught" With more ade-
Quate provision for training and an
sver-rising standard Of qualification,
the pedagogical profession is taking on
new dignity and power. All the more
important is it not to rush things, for
the finest results must depend on full
tides of vitality. In twelve states as
sociations of teachers met during the
recent holidays. Schoolroom work is
wearing to brain and nerve, and it is
open to question whether it is wise to
pack the vacations with shop-work,
however attractive or handsomely
done.

BREAK IN CONCERT.
Russia Springs n Surprise on the
Allies.

Russia Springs Surprises on the
Allies.
Pekln, March 15-The ministers held
meeting and discussed the question
of the punishment of the provincial Of
ficers who are regarded as responsible
primarily for the Boxer troubles and
who are directly implicated in the
massacre of missionaries and converts.
10 the surprise of everybody the Rus
sian representative appeared as an
opponent to any further punishment
OF Chinese officers, no matter how
guilty they may have been. This is
the first decided break in the concert
of the powers. The Russian repre-
sentative got his orders from ST.
Petersburg. 1t is understood that he
was told to aid China in every way in
return for China's signature to an
agreement recognizing
Russian Prcdominence
in the whole northern part of the en-
pire. The Chinese peace commission
ers have attempted to minimize the
appearance of this agreement in the
hope. it is thought, of provoking dis
cord among the ministers. The move
made by Russia will please the Chi
nese for two reasons. In the first
place it means that punishment of
the provincial officers will be STAYED
off temporarily, to say the least, and,
secondly, it will have a tendency to
break the unanimity of the powers
AS the matter now stands Great Brit
ain, Germany, France, Italy, Austria,
Belgium and Holland insist that these
officers should be punished The posi-
ton of Japan and America is uncer-
tain. The action of these two coun-
tries is deemed most important and
settling the policy of the allies.
