PRESIDENTS PROCLAMATION.
Sets Apart Thursday, November rs, as a DaS
Of National Thanksgiving.

Washington, Nov. 2. - President
Roosevelt today issued his proclama-
tion fixing Thursday, November %,
as day of national thanksgiving. 1t
reads.
"a Proclamation. The season is
nigh when, according to the time
hallowed custom of our people. the
president appoints day as the espe-
cial occasion for praise and thanks
giving to God.
"This Thanksgiving finds the peo-
Pile still bowed with sorrow for the
death of great and good president
We mourn for President Mckinley
because we loved and honored him,
and the manner of his death should
awaken in the breasts of our people
keen anxiety and a resolute purpose
not to be driven by any calamity
from the path Of strong, orderly, pop
ular liberty, which, as a nation, we
have thus far safely trod.
"Yet, in spite of this great disaster,
it is nevertheless true that no people
on earth have such abundant cause
for thanksgiving as we have. The
past year, in particular, has been one
of peace and plenty. We have pros
pered in things material, and have
been able to work for our own uplift-
ing in things intellectual and spirit
ual. Let us remember that, as much
has been given us, much will be ex-
pected from us; and that true hom-
age comes from the heart as well as
from the lips and shows itself in
deeds. We can best prove our thank
fulness to the Almighty by the way
in which, on this earth, and at this
time, each of us does his duty to his
fellow men.
NOW, therefore, !, Theodore
Roosevelt, president of the United
States, do hereby designate as a day
of general thanksgiving, Thursday,
the 2Sth of this present November,
and do recommend that throughout
the land the people cease from their
wonted occuaptions and at their sew
eral homes and places of worship
thank the giver of all good for the
countless blessings of our national life

unto set my hand and cassed the seal

BOXER LEADER HoNoRED.
Ma lung Supported by Japan United States
Indifferent to Manchuria.

Pekin, Nov. INA Tung, former
ly Boxer leader, has been appointed
to the Chinese foreign Office by an
edict received today. He recently
returned from Japan where he went
as special envoy to apologize and ex-
press condolences for the murder of
Suguiyama Akira, chancellor of the
Japanese legation at Pekin, shortly
before the legations were beseiged.
This appointment is considered test
of the attitude of the Chinese minis
ter towards the restoration of the
Boxers to imperial favor.
Japanese influences supported Ma
Tung, fact which contributed fur
ther evidence OF Japans recent policy
of cooperation with China. Not
long ago Japan sounded the powers
regarding the proprlety OF another
protest against the Manchurian con-
vention between Russia and China,
and was disappointed by lack of in
terest in the question on the part of
the United States and Great Britain.

dent w. w. Terry, Supreme Secre-
tary J. L. Mitchell and T. B. Nc
Dewitt, of the Order of Washington,
have answered charges made by John

pressed by the Seattle union, and
peace reigns, with the exception that
Parker is to be tried under impeach-

Stabbed AT a Dance.

The Dalles, Nov. 7. - During a
country dance about 90 miles south
east of The Dalles, Saturday night,
Nick Marks, a well-known young far
mer, was terribly stabbed by Reuben
Ford, another young farmer of that
district. Young Marks and Ford
got into a fight over an alleged insult
offered to Marks wife, and during
the encounter Ford pulled out a knife
and began slashing Marks. One
blow is reported to have struck near
