FINISH OF FINLAND
Last National Hope of Sturdy and
Enlightened Little Country
Now Gone.
Laws Promulgated by Russia That
Deprive Firms of Their
Highest Liberties.

FinlandS last hope is now gone and the
country is to become a mere province Of
semi-Oriental despOtism says the St.
Petersburg correspondent of the London
Times. Four new laws which completely
deprive the Firms of that liberty which for
nearly a century has been their pride and
safeguard were last Friday promulgated at
Helsingfors. the capital city. Hoping
against hope the Films were sangune
enough to believe that the tyrannical
measures would be withheld but such was
never the intention Of Car Nicholas and
his advisers.
The first law makes the Finnish senate,
which is the central governing body of
Finland and also the high court a mere
tool Of the governor general The latter or
his Adjutant must attend all meetings
and no action must be taken in the alb
sence of both. Moreover, the governor
general has absolute veto over all it's
resolutions.
Another of the new laws empowers the
igovernor and his senate to remove at will
any official not directly appointed by the
scEar.
Still third law places the law courts
directly under the control Of the governor
general, who may remove the judges
whenever he finds such course desirable.
The fourth Of these laws prohibits the
prosecution of any public official without
the consent Of his superiors. This COM
pletely absolves the police from all liabil-
ity of being called to account for their
actions.
The humiliation of unhappy Finland is
now complete. The severe military laws
which take the Finnish troops to distant
parts of the empire and the edict for the
classification Of the Firms, which will be-
come compulsory in 1905, together with
numerous other severe measures has
wholly degraded the proud and en1ight-
ened little kingdom. There are 2,7OO,0 O(
F1nns only about 5000 of whom know the
Russian language, but in less than three
years all must know it or suffer the conse-
juences.

SWEDE VS.. NORWEGIAN
Arctic Explorer BaIdw!n's Unique e.
PLANTATION of His Failure.

Arctic Explorer BaIdw!n's Unique Ex-
PLANTATION of His Failure.
Evelyn B. Baldwin is inclined to attri-
butte the practical failure of his arctic
expedition to the friction between Captain
Johanson and the ice pilot who were
enemies from the start the enrhity being
due to the. fact that the sailing master
was a Swede and the ice pilot a Norwe-
gian. From this fact Mr.. Baldwin makes
the sapient deduction:,r Never take a
Swede and a Norwegian together along
with you if you want to avoid trouble
1t is really too bad that DR.. Nansen and
Captain Otto Sverdrup did not have the
benefit Of this mature advice, for DR.. Nam
sen on his famous exploration had a
Swede with him, while Captain Sverdrup,
whose explorations of Greenland is said
to have been eminently successful, had
several Swedes in his party. The utmost
harmony, however, prevailed in both ex-
petitions. no doubt because both Nansen
and Sverdrup had the faculty of choosing
men and also leading them.

Almost all the corporals of the Swedish
army have demanded their dismissal on
account Of the refusal Of the war depart
ment to raise their pay, Notwithstanding
that the CONSUMPTION act has materially
extended the term of service.
Most Of the corporals are small farmers
who find their chances Of properly attend
ously lessened by the long service. Thus
far the authorities have dismissed only
a few of the compliments. The salary
question will probably be adjusted at the
next session Of parliament.
In the Helsinge regiment sixtyt three

the Upland regiment eleven corporals am

granted furoughs, but are not satisfied
with this concession. /:

dispute with Wesley, brought to him
larger audiences than he got over in
the colonies in America, and it is
thought that he did not bring the
travelling pulpit here. At any rate,
according to the testimony of the old
est living officer of the American Tract
society, the pulpit was presented to
the society some time before 1880 by
a man who picked it up while travelling
in England.
1t has been exhibited only a few
times in this country, once at the Cen
1876 and again at the worlds fair at
Chicago in 1898.
Whitefeld came to America seven
times in all, his death occurring on his
seventh visit, while he was at New
buryport, Mass. The first time he
came here he went to Georgia at the
request of the Wesleys. On his other
visits he preached mainly in the New
England colonies, where, on several oc-
casions, he was not allowed to use reg
ularly assigned pulpits because their
occupants looked with extreme dis
favor on his evangelical ideas. This
fact has led to the belief that perhaps
he did bring his own pulpit here.
All of the historians agree as to the
power of Whitefeld's voice. 1t seems
not unlikely that he was accustomed
to emphasize his utterances by pound
ing the frail structure of his pulpit,
for it now bears traces of having been
used vigorously. The wood has been
cracked and Clipped off around the
fastenings of the upper railing, as if
some heavy hand had once marked the
time of his creed upon it.

through the South sea group Dur

annexed Suwarrow, ISABEL and Choi-

Malieta island, five villages of the ma
tives were shelled to punish the is
landers for having killed a Fiiian
woman because she embraced Chris
tianity. With a view to impressing
the natives with the seriousness of
the crime committed by them, and of
warning them against a recurrence
of such acts, the Sparrow visited five
places in the island of Malieta, name
lily Auki, Siv, Uras, Kwai, and Port

lagos were shelled and partially de-
stroyed.

were manufactured in Minnesota last
ports no less than 100000 pounds

SULTAN OF MOROCCO.
Worried Over Alleged French-Span-
ish Secret Treaty.
Scheme Is Now on Foot to Divide His
Ancient Empire-Terms of Par
titfon Made Public by At
rican Explorer.

Recent events in Morocco have fully
confirmed the information forwarded
to the New York Times that risings
are being prepared there which must
ultimately lead 20 the Intervention
of France and perhaps Spain. And in
this connection the rumors of Sc
cret treaty between France and Spain,
with view to combined action in Mo-
rocco, are becoming more and more
persistent. Jean Hess, the well-knoWn
explorer and expert on colonial mat
tiers, who has just returned from Mo-
rocco, has communicated some par
ticulars to the Times correspondent
which represent the situation in sim
gularly startling light. To the exist
ence of this alleged Franco-Spanish
treaty NJ. Hess attributes the ex-
traordinary favor now being shown
to Spanish eXteriors in the Paris
financial market.
The terms of the division of Morocco
between France and Spain are, NJ. Hess
says, as follows: Spain to have the
portion of Morocco comprised between
southern coast of the Sabou basin; the
rest to belong to France. The Span
iards wanted the Triffa plain and the
greater portion of that splendid shore
line of the Kiss, where a Frenchman,
M. Say, is establishing port, and it
needed the intervention of a very emf
nent colonial authority in the French
parliament to secure the frontier of
the Moulouia for France. This same
parsonage, who, with the rest of the
colonial party, was deeply displeased
with the Siamese treaty, had to be
modified by the assurance on NJ. Del
casse's part that Morocco would soon
be joined to Algeria, and that Spain
would consent to this junction to Ora
MIA of the right bank of the Moulouia.

Auditory Organ in Leg,

One of the strangest and most unex-
pected of uses to which one could i'm
agine leg being put is that of an or
gan of hearing. Yet such seems to be
one at least of the functions of the
forelegs in the cricket. On the outer
side of tibia small oval space may
be seen, in which the strong armature
which covers the rest of the BODY is
reduced to thin, and membranous CON
dition, making thus sort of window.
or drumhead. Communicating with
this, inside the leg, are the ends of a
nerve, and it can hardly be doubted,
therefore, that the whole apparatus
constitutes an auditory organ.

TO Guard Against Fire.

THE so-called Morris bill, for cut
ting the pine on the ceded Chippewa
reservations, requires every purchas-
er of timber to burn or remove a
sufficient amount of the tops and re-
fuse to prevent danger from fire to
the timber left standing 1t is
thought by many that the time has
come when timber owners generally
in this state should conform to a
similar rule, and each year, say be-
fore the 1st of March, burn or re-
move the tops and branches of their
trees which have been cut down, and
that in case of their failure to do so
the state, through the local fire ward
ems, should do it, the expense to be a
lien on the logs. If sucn a law were
enacted by our legislature it would
be well for the state to enable the
local fire wardens to burn as soon as
practicable the old slashings, which
are a menace to the safety Oh settle
ments. Some lumbermen have al
ways made it a practice to burn their
slashings, and they say it is not very
extensive"

The generally accepted name of
Prince Cupid came to him not at his
baptism, but by general consent. 1t is
so thoroughly attached to him that it
would be impossible to speak of him in
public either in Hawaii or elsewhere
as other than Prince Cupid. He has
been elected as a republican, but his
personal sympathies are strongly roy
alist.
Those who know Prince Cupid say he
is belligerent and touchy on points of
honor regarding himself and his race.
He is born fighter, and when the Boer
war broke out he rendered his services
20 the British government as a soldier
and saw active duty on the veldts of
South Africa. He has medal from
the king of Great Britain in recogni-
ton of his soldierly bearing and faith
full service under his adopted flag.
1t is stated that Prince Cupid will Vi
olently resent an insult fancied or real.
He has been mixed up in many per-
sonal quarrels in his own country and
is man whose anger is feared more
than any other native. He is married
to native Hawaiian woman and af-
fects the society of his own people
rather than the American or norma
tive elements of the inha bitants of the
archipelago.
