TENDER Is, 1901, aged years, months
and Is days. The family was visiting
with relatives at Providence, Kiowa
county, when the boy was taken sick
with tonsilitis. He was sick a week
and everything possible to save the pre-
cious life was done, but death gained
the mastery. The funeral services were
held at the residence of the boys
grandparents, where he took sick, and
the remains laid to rest in the Provi-
dence cemetery. II is hard for loving
parents to part with the dear little
ones and in this sad hour the hearts of
the people of the community go out in
sympathy to Mr.. and Mrs. ford. Wal
dron was bright little boy. His par
ents are among the best people in the
county and their misfortune weighs
heavily upon them. Another child was

A story is told on young Grigsby hut
the Index is not going to vouch for its

his reason that man who would man.

tiers wasn't fit to be commissioners or
anything else. 1t is said that later in

of Bitters fame nor even remote reia-
tive.

TO bring harmony between the Adams
aud Hostetter forces. The nomina-
ton was directed by Medicine Lodge
parties.

Ice Leaving the kenncbec.

Word comes from Bath that the
river at that place is quite full of ice.
Informa ton is also found that shows
that the lower bay is now nearly free
from ice. that Mcrrymecting bay ice is
very weak and the west channel along
Swan island is also free. The east
channel is open in Il few places but
some large jams ar" formed at Il few
places. From the head Of Swan island
to Iccboro the ice has not started. while
from that place to Gardiner. it is
clear. Those well acquainted with the
river and ice think that the river from
this city to the ocean will be open in
two days. AS there have been no high
tides or strong winds, there has been
very little To help it out except the
wearing away and as there has been
no warm rains or little warm weather
this has been slow.

tersburg dispatch to The Associated
Press printed. this morning. has aruua-
ed interest in official circles here. For
the same reason that prevented the
correspondent from giving any author
ity i'm the Russian government as q
source Of the suggestion contained in
his dispatch. it is not possible to cite
official authority for the comment that
has been passed here upon the sug-
gested Russian plea. This. in brief, IL
that the action of the powers in oppos-
ing the Manchurian agreement viii
make it impossible for Russia to leave
Manchuria at all.
The comment upon this suggested
plea is that Russia deliberately pro-
poses to commit greater offence in
the permanent seizure of Manchuria.
il the powers will not connive at a
lesser one, in allowing her to make a
secret and private agreement with
China This plea 1t is said would be
laughed out Of any covert intcrna lion
al law, so disingenious Is it,
Russia Is displeased because the pow
crs discouraged China from signing
the agreement yet Russia herself join
ed with the other powers in undert k
ing to avoid any such private ARA nGe-
ment involving the acquisition Of chi-
nesc territory. Even if shr persists,
even il she forces China to sign the
Manchurian agreement, there IL no OBJ
legation upon the powers. and certainly
not upon the United States. to whom
this Russian pledge was given. To look
upon it as binding at any point.
BY the same reasoning, should Rus
sia, failing to secure an agreement,
continue in Manchuria beyond fea-
soma bic time there Is no obligation mp
on any power to respect her title ana
il may be predicted that this subject
viii lead to controversy OF the graNest
character.
