sessed by any nation, and with this condi'
ton will come a corresponding influence
and responsibility. That this will be met
in manner which will add to the we'll
being of humanity must be Americas am
bition, and that such result will come Is
my earnest hope and 6r;n belief Already
our power and might is felt and recog-
nized in every land. The position we oc'
cupy today before the world, has come to
us unsought, but it has come to remain
forever, while we have always sought to
remain at peace with all mankind, yet
when forced into war our triumphs on
land and sea startled and electrified the
world. While we have always sought,
and still seek, to avoid entanglements Or
interference with the affairs of other ma
tions, yet our diplomacy has been so fair,
Just and wise that the weak appeal to us
for succor and defence, and the strongest
powers seek to merit our appreciation, and
all nations before finally determining upon
any course of diplomacy first learned if
the policy they contemplate will be pleas
ing to this great American republic"

Mr.. Bryan has announced that he is not
now candidate for the Democratic nom-
ination for the Presidency in 1904. He
will be candidate if he lives until l904,is
our prediction.
The best sugar industry in this country
has been so successful that it is stated that
thirteen new factories will be started in
the United States during the present year.
When they are built there will then be
forty-two beet sugar factories in operation
in the United States.
There has been great deal of talk in
European countries about forming an al.
lance against the United States to destroy
our export trade. Despite this talk our
exports continue to grow, and the present
fiscal year promises to show the biggest
figures in the export trade ever known by
our country.
The intelligence comes from Washington
that the Cuban commissioners have be-
come convinced that the United States is
sincere in its desire for the freedom of the
island. But for the effort of some Of our
own citizens to arouse the suspicious Of
the Cubans, the sincerity of the intentions
of the Administration would never have
been questioned by the Cubaus. What a
pity that some of our people will permit
their partisan feelings to overcome their
patriotism.

CHINESE DISPERSED.
Allies Meet Imperial Troops Unexpect
edIy, and Kill Fifty.

Peking, April 29.-The allied force
which went to avenge the death of Major
Browning, of the Punjaub Infantry, and
one of the men of his command, encount'
cred a considerable body Of armed Chinese
while engaged in dispensing band of rob-
bers. After sharp action the Chinese
were compelled to fly to the mountains.
Fifty were killed. The British ltstslx
killed, the japanese two and the French
one.
The body of Major Browning was re-
covered. The Germans have been order
ed back from the Pao-Ting Flu expidition.
Their behavior for the last week or so has
caused great Indignation in Peking, not
only among the Chinese, but among the
foreigners as well. Carts, horses, mules
and ponies have been impressed for trans
portation purposes. Coolies have been
made to work for nothing, and even edu-
Gated Cinnamon have been impressed. A
contractor working for an American quar-
termaster was impressed while at work
for the Americans. An empioye Of the
British Legation had similar experience.
MIR. Hitler, manager Of the bank, was
stopped and made to prove his ownership
Of cart.
The Chinese say there is intense feeling
throughout the province against foreign
els, largely bacause of the harsh treatment

CARNEGlE'S BARE FOOT WALK.
He GalIantIy Loaned His Shoes to a
Woman.

Paris, April 2S.-Andrew Carnegie, who
left Antilles and is now spending three
weeks at Aixlesbains, had curious exper
ience there. He walked four miles down
a rugged mountain side in his bare feet.
Mr.. Carnegie had started early with
these companions-an English woman and
two French women-who were stopping at
the same hotel, to explore the Savoy
Hills.
When it was time to return one OF the
women found her shoes too tight. She
declared she was unable to go hOme.
"Do you think you could for once walk
four miles in yonr bare feet ?" asked the
girl of the millionaire.
MIR. Carnegie was puzzled, but the pref
ty maid finally induced him to give her his
shoes, which, though tremendously large,
enabled her to proceed slowly.
When the sedate Mr.. Carnegie, who
was somewhat ahead of the other three,
was seen to enter the lobby Of the fashion
able hotel in bare and bleeding feet, car.
rying pair of dainty ladies boots swung
OIL his alpenstock over his shoulder, there
was great excitement.

Cast Upon the World" as feature of the
closing exercises of the Stanley-McCor'

man, was shot and instantly killed. The
shot was fired by BaccuS Bailey.
Both young men were participants in
the play. McInturf had drawD knife as
if in the act of stabbing Bailey. The latter
was in accordance with the plot, to use a
revolver loaded with blank cartridges to
ward off the attack. By mistake he got
possession of loaded revolver, which re-
suited in the tragic death of McInturf,
who was his friend and roommate.
The sad occurrence caused inexpressible

DIR. u. Y. Sheriff., lately first assistant
physician at the Southwestern hospital, at
Marion, Va, has prepared and made pub
lie a series of very serious charges against
superintendent r. j. Preston. The
charges are neglect of patients, misman'
agement and personal use of drugs for
which the State paid. DR.. Preston de-
MES specifically all the charges and invites
a full investigation. Governor Tyler has
stated to a reporter of the Richmond
News that the board of the hospital will
take up the matter and make a thorough
investigation. Those who have made the
charges and are backing DR.. Sheriff. claim
that the board is not the proper tribunal
to investigate the charges, as the conduct
of the board is also seriously called in
question.

Served Writ on General Clay.

Richmond, KY, April 2S.-By a skill
fully planned ruse Constable Neale Ander-
son succeeded yesterday afternoon in
serving a writ oil General Cassius NJ. Clay
informing him that his bank account at
the State Bank and Trust Company, of
this city, had been attached by his daugh-
ter, Mrs. Mary g. Clay, and her son,
Green Clay. The attachment grew out of
the trouble few weeks ago, when General
Clay at the muzze of rifle dispersed a
sherifi's posse which went to White Hall
to secure some household goods belonging
to Mrs. Clay. Despairing of obtaining
the goods without serious trouble, Green
Clay decided to let him keep them, but
sued out an attachment for 81 400, the
value of the goods. and levied on tine gen
erals bank account. Constable Anderson
was commissioned to strve the notice, and
after several hours Of patient watching he
stealthily crept up to the generals guard
ed castle and slipped the important docu-
ment under his door. The officer did not
tarry to note what happened, but as he
fled from the premises he heard the gen.
erals alarm bell calling for his armed re-
tainers.

Dear Sir You know your painter; we
don't; we only know painters in general.
There are two sorts, as there are two
sorts of everybody else. One paints as

he can and get business.
The one that paints as well as he can is all
the time learning; the other one knows it
all nOw
Josh Billings SAYS 'it's better not to
know too much than to know so many
things that amt So" There are lots O.
things in paint that can't so." Lead
and oil Is one Of 'em.

is better in every respect; is ready to dip
the brush in; you can depend on the COL

the Chinese have received from the Ger
mans. They also assert that the needless
expeditions of the Germans against per-
fectly quiet communities have caused
many Chinese who have lost all to join
rowing bands of robbers.
The Franco German expedition under
General Bailloud, commanding the French =,
and General Won Lessel, commanding the
Germans, when advancing on Sian-Fu,
confronted twenty-five thousand Chinese
occupying three positions in the hills.
Upon the approach of the allies the Chi

KODAKERY.

Everybody looks upon a Kodak now
adays as they look on an umbrellas
necessity. Still, many do not possess
them and many more are dissatisfied
with the results from their cameras.
The perverted aphorism There is no
Kodak but an Eastman Kodak is a
true one. You are absolutely secure in
buying any article in Photographic ap-
planes when the name Eastman
shows as manufacturer. Thoroughly
reliable and the best of material, they
always give the best of satisfaction. 1t
is hard to devise a better Christmas
gift in this iand of unrivalled scenery
than a KODAK to those who do not
already possess one or, having a camera
by some less careful manufacturer, are
dissatisfied with it's results.
