To Protect American Legations.

Washington, May 20.-The instruc.
tions issued by General Chafiee under
direction of the war department in re-
gard to the protection of the American
legation at Pekin after the departure OF
the United States troops from China have
been made public at the department. They
designate Company b of the Ninth infan-
try as the legation guard and Major f
r. Robertson Of that regiment is detailed
as commander.
Major Robertson's attention is especial
ly invited to the fact that the troops
under his command are stationed in a
foreign country with which the United
States is on terms of friendship. The
guard must, therefore, not be used ag-
gressively unless in defense of the Ameri-
can legation or persons and property OF
American citizens in its immediate vicin-
ity. The guard will repel attacks made
by Chinese on the American legation OF
its own position, and, if necessary to do
so, may fire upon the assailants. 1t may
cooperate with other troops for the de-
Tense of the legation in the event of at
tack being made on the same by any
Chinese forces.

Fears Uncle Sam,

Berlin, May 2O.-The large amount OF
space and attention which the German
press and public of every class have re-
Gently devoted to the United States re-
lations with Germany and Great Britain
is remarkable. A year ago it was mainly
the agrarian press which Systematically
antagonized the United States in defense
of agrarian products and political inhu-
ence, but now the liberal and radical press
are slowly becoming convinced that the
United States is their keenest commercial
and industrial rival. This fact came out
strongly during the reichstag debates last
month and also in the diet.

Terrible Experience.

The steamer Empress of India,
which recently arrived at Victoria, B.
c., brought a terrible tale of ship
wreck and cannibalism which was re-
counted to the naval court at Singa-
pore by Johansen, a Swede, and Mar
taranna, Spaniard, sole survivors
Of 10 men who sailed from Cavite on
the bark Angola, October IL. They
were cast ashore from their raft on
Soubi island, of South Natuna group,
after AZ days of horror, and taken on
board junk two days later, which
landed them at Singapore on April 13.
The Angola was wrecked on a coral
reef when six days out from Manila,
and went to pieces soon after she
struck. The boats were smashed and
the crew made two RATS out of the
wreckage. They had been 20 days at
sea when one man died. and then
one by one the other sailors died and
their bodies were thrown to the sharks
which followed.
A Frenchman went mad and at
tackled the captain with an ak, and as
the mate went to the captains assist
ance he welded his ak, killing him,
ate his brains and darnk his blood.
Others killed the Frenchman and ate
part of his body. Then one by one
the survivors died, until but two were
left, who subsisted on small fish taken
with hooked nails and lines made of
pieces of canvas.
They drifted until after AZ days of
terrible suffering they were washed
on the island of Soubi, on November
"a. BY that time they were so weak
that they could not walk, but had to
crawl on their hands and knees.
Their bodies were covered with boils.
There were about 200 natives on the
island. The men went up to the
chiefs house and lived there for
about two months. They had only
cocoanuts, mango and little fish to-
eat.
After living there about two months
a Chinese junk arrived from Singa-
pore with a cargo of rice and the sur
vivors went on board her. They
stopped on the junk for two months
and then went on her to Pula-Ma
and thence to Singapore.

A TOWN ON THE AUCTION BLOCK

Tie little town of Lincoln, N. j.. has
gone TO sEash. The suctioneer will sell
It's public property to the highest
bidder. In order that the debts may be
paid, and large amount OF criticism
will be heaped on the heads of the
women who governed the place.
For this little city was almost an
Adamless Eden, go far as its municipal
Offices were concerned. There was q
woman president Of the council, and
enough female members OF that body to
make things hum. 1t was proposed TO
make everything advanced; to push
Lincoln artistically and socially little
ahead OF the world.
Factories were abolished because they
disturbed pesce and quiet and were
scarcely the thing in city Of residence
and terra Gotta firm quilt business in
the town because Of an ordinances leveled
at the inartistic coloring Of its product
OF course, these concerns were moi
ordered out Of the village. That
wouldn't do at all. They were hsrsssed
TO death by fool legislation, tome OF ii
about rs sensible as would be an ordi-
nance to compel everyb ody In Brunswick
to read Browning and play tennis.
So the town went to smash. There
was nothing proved against women in
business. Their cause lost nothing
Business women, the sort that can and
do compete with men and make favor
able showing. we're never at the head Of
Lincoln's government.
The town or city that desire 10
progress and grow and spread out is
bound to show wear and the marks Of
toll. Some municipal evils can be
lesssned and others wiped out, but the
