Kansas City, April 15.-Mrs. Carrie Ma

fore Police Judge McAuley this morning,
fined $500 and given until o'clock this
evening to leave the city. The judge
warned Mrs. Nation if she was found in

leave town, and fifteen minutes later
she boarded a street car for Kansas City,
Kan.
Mrs. Nation appeared in court early,
accompanied by her brother and a woman.
When Judge McAuley asked Mrs. Nation
what she had to say to the charges, she
delivered a TRADE against police and

WHIP THE MASHER
Young Kentuckians Tie Him Across
a Barrel.
CROWD ENJOYS THE PUNISHMENT
Tennesseean "GOt Too Fresh" With
Kentucky Belle and Now
He Is Sorry.


Fulton, KY, April 15.-W. White, from
Newbern, Tenn, formed a wrong esti-
mate of Kentucky girls. His mistake cost
him 5000 fine and the doctors bill has
not yet been paid. 1t will be months
before White can wear clothes, sit down
or even move with comfort. He was al
most cut to pieces with whips welded
by irate young Kentuckians.
White came over from Newbern to
Fulton. Evidently some one had told him
that in their f1irtations Kentucky girls
played with no limit. The young Tennes-
seean saw on the street Miss Ruby Baird,
one of the most popular girls in southern
Kentucky. He secured an introduction,
and then, in the language of Fulton girls,
he got "a bit too fresh" 4"
Miss Baird screamed and rushed into a
store. White ran, with police officer at
his heels, and a crowd Of angry citizens
followed close behind. The policeman
caught White first and with half-a-dozen
fellow officers managed to get him away
from the crowd and to the Jail. He was
hustled into the police court and fined
$780, He paid on the spot
A mob in the street was awaiting his
appearance, and with a whoop the mob
charged the police and routed them. In a
jiffy Whites clothes had been torn off
and the man, shrieking piteously, was
tied over a barrel. Bob Baird, brother OF
Miss Baird, and another stout young fell
low welded the whips. Before all the
people, with White screaming at every
blow, they whipped. Then long, blue welts
came, then red streaks, and at last blood

WINNIPEG TALKS REFORM
A BETTER CIVIC SYSTEM NEEDED
Responsible Head Would Effect
Large Savings-SuggestiO of
Leading Citizens.
Special to The Journal.

OpCC1dl 10 Inc journal.
Winnipeg, Man, April 15.-An agitation
is on foot for a more comprehensive and
economic form Of civic government for
this city and many ideas are advanced by
leading citizens. Some suggest the ap-
pointment of a commission with powers
similar to those Of a manager of a corpor-
alton, who could harmonize the whole
work and utilize the staff to better advan-
tage. He would be held responsible to
the city council for all work done and
would be given wide powers to relieve the
council and committees of many of their
routine duties. Another suggestion, faith
cred by Alderman Carruthers. is that the
council elect an executive under the same
system as that Of the provincial parlia-
ment, and that he be paid at about the
same rate, and be given about the same
powers as the provincial minister's A
third suggestion is that three commission
ers, a solicitor, a chartered accountant
and civil engineer be appointed and
given full charge of the work, their ac-
tions only to be recinded by a two thirds
vote Of the council
Winnipeg spends over 100000 every
year, and it is claimed that at present
there is no responsible head and that 1t
is impossible to locate blame for mistakes
made. The advocates OF the different
systems claim that an enormous saving
could be effected and that the result would
agreeably startle the citizens

FEW AMERICAN CLAIMS
Consul Hay Says south Africa Will
Be a Good Market.


Nese York Sum Special Ssrvtce
Washington, April 15.-Consul Adelbert
S. Hay who recently returned from his
post at Pretoria, talked for publication
to-day for the first time since relinquish-
ing his post in South Africa. He inclined
to the opinion that whatever may be the
result of the war in the Transvaal, there
will be no large indemnity to pay to
Americans He said:
The greater portions of Americans resident
in the Transvaal were earning a salary. They
were we'll do, but did not possess much
property to be destroyed. There will eonse-
quently be but few American claims for in
demnity.
OF course there were Americans that took
sides, but / suppose that not more Americans
than any other neutrals were found in the
Boer and British ranks. AS to the proportion
in which they divided, I should say that the
Americans went to the Beers and the British
almost in proportion TO the size of each army
the greater number to the British, OF
course.
One would have 10 be good prophet to guess
at the result of the war There are too many
things to take into consideration, and the
news from |the country is SO changing and

There is a prosperous time for South Afri-
ca, and it will start rapidly to recuperate as
soon as the war is over. Then there will be
an immense amount of business with Amer
lea, which Will require a man of special busi-
ness training to handle properly. Railroads
have to be put into the mines. American
manufacturers have hitherto held a large
share of such trade, and l suppose will con-
tinue to do So

The FUTURE CITIZEN
Children of the Tenements Rule in
the Next Generation.
AVERAGE IS THREE TO THE FAMILY
On Fifth Avenue, in the Homes Ot
Wealth, the Average Is
One to Three.
Now YORK. Sun saectat Service

New York. April 15.-One of the sub
jects discussed at the recent meeting of
clergymen called to consider the grow
ing passion of society women for
dren in the homes of the rich and so many
in the tenements.
Reports from twelve prominent churches
attended by families Of wealth and fashion
showed a total membership Of 1861. with
but 1,500 children on the rolls Of the Sun
day schools. 1t was reported that only
sixty-one children attended the Sunday
school Of a church that has 1000 mem
bers.
The homes Of the rich are practically
childless. In the mile of palaces on Fifth
avenue, betW cen Fifty and Sew
enty-third streets, there are only fifteen
children under II years of age. The
average is about one child to three Of
those costly and beautiful homes. Among
the residents of that section of million
aires row are John Jacob Astor, George
and Howard Could Ogden Mills, William
G. Whitney. Clarence Postley, E. j. Ber-
wind and James A. Burden.
In the Tenements.
The correspondent loking for the rising
generation found it on the East Side.
In those crowded streets, their only play
ground, were the boys and girls who are
to form the majority in the New York of
the future.
In one tenement house were found more
than four times as many children as live
in the mansions that extend for a mile
along Fifth avenue There was no
evidence that this house was more
populous than any other in the neighbor-
hood.
Selecting the house at No. 40 Clinton
street, the reporter made a census of the
population. 1t is an ordinary tenement
six stories high, stores occupying the
front of the ground floor. Four families
live on each of the upper floors, two in
the rear of the stores and one in the
basement. There are % families in all,
numbering 10S persons. One Of the ten
ants is widow, all the others being mar
ried couples. There are As adults and 6S
children in the house, making an average
of nearly three children to a family.
Ther are one or more children in every
family but one.
The house occupies a 20-foot lot and
is about 20 feet deep. Each family has
three rooms. The house is clean and in

COMBINE TO GRAB
Powers Are Trying to Reduce China
to Beggary.
DISAGREE OVER THE INDEMNITY
to the Necessary EX-
penditures.


Washington, April 15-The attempt
which the United States government is
making with the hearty cooperation of
England and Japan to save China from
being mulcted, with the possible conse-
quence of territorial dissolution, is meet
ing with the determined opposition of the
other nations.
This government endeavor to prevent
q demand on China for the payment of
$500, ,000 900 indemnity is not based on the
broad contention that China cannot pay
that amount. but on a more substantial
ground. Under instructions from the
state department.. Special Commissioner
Rockhill is trying to persuade the foreign
representatives at Peking that the claims
for the transportation and subsistence of
the allied forces sent TO China should not
include the cost of maintaining forces
not engaged in the one great object for
which troops were sent there-the rescue
OF the legations. With the exception of
the United States. England and Japan,
the powers have put in claims for the cost
of maintaining their land and naval
forces in the Chinese empire since the
legations were relieved. Some nations,
notably Germany and Russia, sent large
contingents after Peking had been taken
and the expenses of these soldiers is
included in their demands for indemnity.
From what is heard here there is a big
game of grab going on in China in which
nine nations, most of them comparatively
unimportant, are engaged, while three
great powers are trying TO prevent them
from reducing the Chinese government to
beggary. The main trouble is that the
representative of a small nation has a
vote equal to that Of any great power,
and England, Japan and the United States
find themselves outvoted at every turn.
Italy, Spain, Belgium and Holland, by
forming a combination, could practically
control the situation, voting with which
ever group of greater powers they regard
as favoring the terms most advantageous
to themselves.

WORRY THE BRITISH
Battles May Be Expected About Aug
ust and September.

New York, April ia special to the
World from Washington says
Captain John A. Hassell, who COM
manded the American scouts in the Boer
army in the first part of the war, is here.
He says
The Boer cause, while it cannot be said to
be bright, is brighter than that of the
British. The winter season has Just begun
in South Africa, and until September the
British soldiers will have a hard time.
The Beers are making their winter quar-
ters in the Lydenberg range, where the
English will not dare tackle them, for they
would have to cross the low marshy country
TO get there, and they have to import every
pound of fodder for their horses. The prob
lem is not only to sustain the lives of their
men in the low marshy lands, where chills
often end in deadly pneumonia, but problem
Of sustaining horsehesh.
1t is hard for the Beers to get recruits,
but in spite of English precautions, recruits
are getting in every day. For every Boer
killed by the English nowadays, half a
dozen recruits straggle in from this country
and elsewhere.
The Beers do not purpose to fight any big
pitched battle at present. Tney will simply
worry the enemy everywhere they can, and
about August and September you may look
for resumption of general action on a large
scale.

London, April 15.-Military men do not
regard the outlook in South Africa as en-

opposition to the British forces is practi-
cally at an end, it is felt that so long as
the irreconcilables persist in their deter
mination to fight to the bitter end the
war will drag wearily on, with here and
there a little British success to chronicle,
and occasionally news Of some trifling
achievement by the guerrillas.
Meanwhile Kitchener's huge army must

must be content with the knowledge that
