UNITY OF ALL NATIONS.
Controlling Idea of Cecil Rhodes
THROUGH Life.

London, April 8.-W. T. Stead yes
terday said that Cecil Rhodes as a
boy had an idea that it might be pos
sible to bring the United States into
the British empire.
When he grew older he perceived
that this was impossible. 1t then
became his ruling idea to effect some
thing like a federation of the Anglo
Saxon race.
Mr.. Rhodes once said it was ghast-
ly to think of what a stupid thing
George III did. But for him, the En-
glish speaking people might have
been in a position to secure absolute
ly the peace of the world without fir
ing shot.
Discussing Mr.. Stead's idea that
the British empire is to become part
of the United States, Mr.. Rhodes said
he would gladly agree to that if An
glo-Saxon unity could not be man
aged in any other way.
Mr.. Stead believes that granting
Canada such a few scholarships in
comparison with those given to the
United States was an oversight which
the executors under the residuary
clauses doubtless will rectify.

lily and leave the city with her. He
then whipped out the hatchet and
struck her on the head.
She was felled by a terrific blow on
the head, which broke her neck, and
her throat was cut from ear to ear
A blow from some blunt instrument
made hole in the middle of the fore
head and behind her left ear was a
deep stab wound evidently made by
the same instrument that was used
to cut her throat.
In addition to these ghastly wounds
heavy blow had been struck on the
side of the face, fracturing the cheek
bone. Her mutilated body was found
in this condition in lonely spot on
Thirteenth street. 1t was taken to
the morgue and not identified until
this morning.
Miss Jennett left her home last
Tuesday to attend a meeting of the
Daughters of Rebecca, of which she
was member. She left the meeting
about IL o'clock, but was not seen
again alive. Her parents were alarmed
about her not coming home, and
when they heard of the murder be-
came fearful that it might be their
daughter. Mr.. Jennett hurried to the
morgue and there identified the body.

Two Million Acres in Choteau County
Affected.
TO AID ST. MARY's CANAL
The Big Irrigation Scheme Is Re-
sponsibIe for the Order and the
Success of the Project Is Now
Assured-CanaI Will Cost Two
Million Dollars.

Washington, April S.---The presi-
dent has directed that upward of 70
townships in northern Montana be
withdrawn from public entry for use
in the big irrigation scheme known
as the st. Mary's canal and Milk
river project.
Practically 100000 acres are
closed to settlement by this order,
all lying within the county of Cho-
teau along the line of the proposed
canals, including canals from St.
Mary's lake to the North Fork of
Milk river, from the North Fork to
the South Fork, from the South Fork
to Cut Bank, along the Cut Bank and
it's tributaries, along the Marias from
it's junction with the Cut Bank to a
point near Concord, and along the
Milk river from the confluence of the
North and South forks to point
about 40 miles east of Chinook.
The area withdrawn from entry
comprises about one-fourth of the
public domain in Choteau county.
According to the reports of the
United States geological survey, the
proposed canals will irrigate only
$4,000 acres in the driest season, but
the presidents order contemplates
the withdrawal of vast additional
tracts which could be irrigated from
the canals in seasons of copious rain
fail.

GOMPERS Is ANGRY.
Publicly Resents Remarks of Minister
WI Ting Fang.

Washington, Feb. 4.-The house commit
tee on foreign affairs heard Immigration
Commissioner Powderly and President
Gompers of the American Federation of
Labor in favor of strict Chinese exclusion
as provided in the Mitcheu-kahn bill. Mr..
Powderly stated that the hardships en-
from exclusion at the detention stations
We're insignificant 1t was the duplicity of
the Chinese laborer, who sought to gain
admission by assuming to be in the ex-
stringent exclusion laws.
Mr. Gompers spoke of the extent of
Asiatic contamination and decentralization
of our labor on the Pacific coast. The
Chinese worker who earned 81 and con-
Sumed cents day impoverished ATneri-
can labor and reduced the standards of
vanced that American worlzingmen would
have to meet European and Chinese
standards of cheap living. Mr.. Gompers
answered that if long hours and low
wages meant industrial superiority, then
China would have been at the head of the
Industrial nations. of the world.
In the course of his remarks Mr.. Com
pers criticised WI Ting Fang, the Chinese
minister, saying:
II resent the sneering remarks of a for
eign diplomat that am an agitator or a
of this country who are endeavoring to
protect themselves from Chinese labor, are
agftators.
II deny the right of the representative
of a foreign government addressing him
self to an official of our government and
referring to American citizens by name in
reference is of a derogatory character.
The Chinese minister is treated in this
country with every becoming courtesy,
and he has no right to make 1nslnua tons
upon American citizens. Upon behalf of
the laboring men of this country. whom
represent as the president of the Ameri-
resent these remarks on the part of the
Chinese minister.

"MRS. EDDY sWINDLE"
Is What Christian Science is Called in
the German Reichstag-

Berlin, Feb. 4.-Christian Science was
debated in the reichstag. While con-
sidering a resolution asking the govern
ment to place insane asylums under i'm :
perial control DR.. Heinrich Muller,
Radical, said he thought the govern
ment should take action against the
Mrs. Eddy swindle in Flotwell street,
Berlin, abiding to the establishment
of a certain Fraulein Schoen, where, DR..
Mueller said, prayer healing was per-
formed at two marks an hour, and that
the Fraulein Schoen had followers in the
higher circles of Berlin society.
Herr Stoecker, Conservative, formerly
court preacher, said that Christian Sci
ence was a product of bad philosophy
and worse theology imported from the
United States, and that it should be
made illegal in Germany as had been
done in America Herr Stoecker sug-
gested that the reichstag appoint
commission to investigate occult phe-
nomena.
Count Won Posadowsky- Wehner, inn
perial secretary of state for the Interior,
referring to this matter later, said
Christian Science and spiritualism
have the same psychological source,
which / regard as quite dangerous
press even the higher circles of society,"
the psychology of which can hardly be
fathomed. These come and go, and
even cool-headed and thoughtful OBJ
servers and believers therein can not be
combatted by force. 1 earnestly warn
against using the power of the state
against such things
The subject of Christian Science was
then dropped.

feature of the afternoon was the victory
of High Chancellor, a so to 1 shot in the

the stable of Chinn & Forsythe was one

cred a factor. Adirondack led until the
last few jumps, when long shot Conley
brought High Chancellor up and in a
drive landed him a winner by nose.
There were a few bets on him straight
and he received some support for the
place. Duckoy, placed from 9 to 10 to 3
to 5, won the mile race easily, and in
the second event Kickumbob, the ia
vorite, gained head victory over Fri
dolin. a 20 to 1 chance. O'Connor and

hans SEPARATIONS to the heavyweight

last night by Frank Childs, the colored
heavyweight, who knocked out the New
Yorker after one minute of fighting in
the fourth round of a six-round contest

outclassed from the start, although at
the beginning of the first round he made

second and sent Hanrahan to the floor
with stiff left to the jaw. Hanrahan
remained down for the limit, but he had
a shade the better of it in the exchange
that followed. The second round was
full of wild swings, neither man doing
any damage. In the next round ChlIdS

and was more successful at this style OF
fighting. On several occasions he land

MONEY OF IT'S OWN.
State Department Doesn't Need Any
For Coronation Expenses.

Washington Feb. I'm response to
Inquiries the state department has noti-
fed the senate committee on appropria-
lions that the department would be able
20 make provision for the expenses of
the Representatives of this country in
England incident to the coronation of
King Edward VII from its own re-
sources and that therefore no especial
appropriation will be necessary for that
purpose The committee therefore did
not make provision in the urgent de-
ficiency bill as reported to the senate
for this item of expense as it had agreed
on Saturday last to do. The commit
tee also decided that the provision in
the bill as it came from the house for
an appropriation of $4,000 to be used by
the president in meeting Unforeseen
emergencies" would be sufficient to
cover the expense of the government
in connection with the approaching visit
of Prince Henry and no specific appro-
priation was made on that account
The net increase of appropriations
recommended by the senate committee
on this bill is SO, 163. $50, bringing its
total up to $40, 239 $40. The principal
Payment to Mexico on account of the
La Abra and We'll claims, $412,5T2;
payment of rebate on tobacco. 100000:
reimbursement of Philippine insular
fund for gunboats turned over to the
navy, $2S,S19; purchase of coal for the
navy. 100000; equipment of naval yes
sells, $45O.00O; refunding to states money
expended in raising volunteers in the
civil war: Maine, $131, SIS ;Pennsylvania,
1888, 46; New Hampshire, Sos, 372; Rhode
Island, 1924, 617-
The appropriation of s500,0 for the
shelter of troops in the Philippine Is
lands is retained, but the wording of
the provision is changed to read as fol-
lows:
For the establishment in the vicinity
in Manila. P. l., of a military post, in
Guiding the construction of barracks,
quarters for officers, storehouses, hos
pitfalls and other buildings, as we'll as
water supply, lighting, sewerage and
drainage necessary for the accommoda-
ton of a garrison of two full regiments
of infantry, two squadrons of cavalry
and two batteries of artillery, to be
available until expended.
The committee also struck out the
house provision limiting the number of
land offices in Alaska to one, and re-
duced the appropriation made by the
house bill for experimental rural free
delivery service from $491, 040 to $217, 300.

HOPEFUL VIEW

The hopeful view consump-
tives take of their own cases is
strongly in their favor. Each
year is showing a larger per-
centage of cures.
One of the best reasons for
good hope is the record of
SCOTS Emulsion as a medicine
for consumptives. So long as
the system is strong enough to
use medicine of any kind it can
use SCOTS Emulsion.
The reason for its helpful
ness in this disease is because
of its long tolerance by the
patient; one does not tire OF
it as quickly as other medi-
cines and that is where the
great benefit comes.
