China's Awful Plight.
(By Associated Press. }

Tacoma, Wash. Oct. est will
take hundred years or MORE of
hard work and the expenditure Of
hundreds OF thousands of dollars to
civillze southern China. This
statement is made by Henry W.
Huntzell,, a Methodist Episcopal
missionary sent out By the Chicago
mission, two years ago, to the
Cho-Song station in southern
China. He is now Oh lis way
back to Chicago on account Of i'll
health.
"In southern China murder is as
frequent as your meals, and it is
called Gust ON instead Of crime.
Natives have little or no moral
law. There is marriage law, but
it is only for protection of male in
habitants. A southern Chinese
woman once married to a man can
never desert him. A man can
have as many wives as he likes.
ssSlaye traffic is rampant III all
parts of the southern provinces.
Fathers dispose of their daughters
and wives the same as in this
country we dispose of livestock.
Notwithstanding these conditions,
within three years since our mis-
sion opened we have made 260
converts. We have established
two schools, and our meetings are
we'll attended.

HAD NO NEWS.
At Least That Was What
He Thought.

Colonel Opie Read, novelist and
playwright, was for many years
identified with country newspapers
in Kentucky and Tennessee. He
says that one day he approached
farmer in a Kentucky town and
asked him If there was any news
in his nelghborhood.
''Not a bit NV news,' said the
farmer. awe are all too busy
with our crops TO think of anything
else. All quiet in our neighbor-
hood"
pretty good crops this year,"
queried Read.
"Bully," said the farmer. 81
ought to be in my field this min
ute, and I would be if L hadn't
come to town to see the coroner"
ssThe coroner?''
"Yep. Want him to hold an in
quest on a couple of fellows down
in our nelghborhood."
Inquest! Was it an accident?''
"Nope. Zeke Burke did it pup
pus. Plugged George Rambo and
his boy Bill with pistol. Got to
have an inquest
"What caused the fght?'
ssThere wasn't no fight. Zeke
never give the other fellows show.
Guess he was right, too, cause
the Rambos did not give Zeke' s
father an brother any chance.
Just hid behind tree an fired at
'em as they come along the road.
That was yistiday mornin', an in
an hour Zeke had squared ac-
counts"
''Has Zeke been arrested?''
s.Nope. What's the use? Some
Of Old Man Rambo's relatives
come along last night, burned
down Zeke's house, shot him an :
his wife, an set fire to his barn.
Nope, Zeke hasn't been arrested.
But I amt got time to talk to you.
Got to git back to my haryestln'.

 The St. Petersburg correspondent of the London Times says that the assassination of M. Sipiaguine is con sidered to have been the result of a well organized conspiracy, and anx- iety prevails to know whether other victims are marked for removal.
 The London Daily Mail claims to have authority to announce that a basis of peace has been practically agreed upon at Pretoria, but it says some little time will elapse before the plan can be perfected. The paper adds that upon finding that the British government refused, on We'd nesday, to modify its terms in regard to amnesty, banishment and re- sponsible government, the Boer dele gates met again on Thursday. The British decision, practically leaving them the alternative of accepting the British terms or of breaking up the conference, was then communi- cated to them, and the delegates proved more reasonable. When Lord MillDer, British high commissioner in South Africa, promised the delegates one or two seats in the executive council, subject to the approval of hi, government, and pending the restora- tion of responsible government, they practically agreed to accept the British terms.

Home Industry.

One of the best methods whereby to build up live city is to patronize home industries. A man who pays out more than he earns, must soon borrow or go to the wall. A country which sends its money out to foreign localities, or distant states will soon become poor. Keep money at home and in circulation here. Five dollars may in business pay hundred debts and relieve as many people in small way. Five times that amount will do just five times as much. If we could raise our potatoes and vegetables right here, produce our own eggs and pouI- try, the money that goes abroad daily, making us poorer and some other location richer, would remain at home, circulating from man to man, and would keep business moving. Keep home money for home circulation. Every dollar kept here passing around helps the town and country. There are reciprocal duties between our home enterprises and our local consumers. The home manufacturer owes it to his customer to give as good an article for the money, as the customer can get elsewhere, local conditions considered. The home merchant owes It to his patron to give him the best bdrgaiu he can, and the the entire peoAie owe to their loca
 establishments patronage and loca
 support. Let us stand together fol everything of local advantage.-Ex.

IMPURE BAKING POWDER SEIZED
The New York Board of Health Find if Contains Alum and Rock, Declare it Dangerous to Health and
 Dump it m the River.

The New York papers report that the health department of that city has seized as dangerous to health nearly two tons of cheap mixtures sold for baking powder, and dumped them into the offal scow to be de- stroyed. More of the powder was found in a Sixth avenue depart ment store. The report of the analy- sis of the health department stated that it was an "alum baking powder" containing alum and pulverized rock.
 The different health authorities seem to have different ways of re- pressing the sale of bad baking pow ders. In England they have prose cuted the grocers under the general law and broken up the traffic. In Missouri the sale of alum baking powder is actually prohibited by law. In New York they seize the unwhole- some stuff and cast it into the river, without any discussion. The latter way is certainly effective.
 The alum baking powders are usu- ally offered at low price, ten to twenty cents pound, or with some prize as temptation to the house. wife.
 Consumers can protect themselves by buying only high-grade baking powder of established name and repu- tation. Do not be tempted by the grocer to take something else "just as good" or "our own brand" for the trials show that the grocer himself is often deceived by interruptions mak- CTS and is selling an alum powder without knowing it.
 There are several good powders on the market; let the housekeeper in- sist on what she knows is right, and not be induced to risk the life of a family for an imaginary saving of s | few cents,

THE EIES' FIESTA PARADE.
This Years Fiesta at Los Angeles Gives the Elks a Chance to Show What
 What They Can Do.

An entirely new feature of the fiesta at Los Angeles this year will be the parade on opening day, Thurs day, May l. On that day the Elks of Southern California will parade en masque and their costumes will tax the ingenuity of those skilled in pro ducing the fantastic and grotesque.
 Many lodges, besides those in Los Angeles, are working earnestly on this parade and the way in which the Elks take up a thing of this kind is we'll known.
 A committee is at work and prom ises to originate several new and novel features, one of them being something like two hundred animals of many kinds which will be imper- sonated by the frisky Elks. There will also be number of fantastic floats upon which will be mounted clowns and grotesque characters acted by Elks in disguise.
 Every Elk in Southern California will probably make an effort to have some part in this, the finest parade that ever happened. The Elks will really be pretty nearly the whole show on May 1,

St. Charles Libel Suit.

The following jury was impanelled yesterday afternoon in the suit of Keane St. Charles versus the Phenix Republican on a complaint of libel: L. N. Baily, Chas. S .holey, Jos. Me Alvin, c. A. Peter, w. s. Pratt, John Row, M. Tregalles, J. Newlan, Ed. Shumate, Phil. Hoover, T. B. White sides, John Stocks. The taking of testimony was commenced this morn ing and has been in progress all day. A large number of witnesses have been subpoenaed from different parts of the territory, the plaintiffs having witnesses from Mohave, Coconino and Yavapai counties. to show how extensively the alleged libelous article was circulated and read.
 Upon an order of the court, St. Charles, some time since, turned the files of his paper over to the attorneys for the defense, who have since perused them very carefully and have compiled a large array of the very choicest selections of opinions and expressions from St. Charles writings. The alleged hbelous publi- cation by the Republican hinges largely on broad assertion that St Charles has anarchistic tendencies And in addition to the files of his paper, they have summoned a mum Der of citizens of Mohave county tC back up their previous assertions or this point. The case is being very vigorously fought by the attorneys or both sides, and the case has attracted considerable interest and is attended by large number of spectators. MT St. Charles seeks to recover S5O,OO damages.
 The forenoon was taken up largel, in the argument of legal points. Tn defense admitted the publication O the alleged libel, but pleaded justified tion, and extracts from the files of St , Charles paper were read in suppor , of this pleading.
