King and Queen
at HoIyrood Palace,

EDINBURGH. April 10.-Old Holy
rood palace is being overhauled and
put in shape for the visit of the
king and queen next month. and the
Scottish capital is jubilant over the
expectation that the famous old pile
is to become one more brilliant with
regal ceremonies.
The qualification of the citizens of
Edinburgh may be understood when
it is known that no state function
has been held at Hollywood since the
time of George w. Queen Victoria
visited the palace a number of times,
but she used it only as a private
residence.

PEOPLE WHO ARE LEFT-EYED
They Use One optic More Continuously
Than the Ot~har-FOrce OF
Habit,

The man who spends half his time trying
to classify people said he never saw so
many left-eyed passengers in one car, re-
ports the New York Times.
What do you mean by left-eyed passen-
gersg" asked his companion.
People who use their left eye more than
their right" was the reply. THE species is
not common and, of course, none but a stu
dent In ocular science would be able TO de-
tect offhand the few whom we do meet. A
left-handed person advertises his peculiar
ity at once; not so the left-eyed man. As a
rule 1t takes an oculist to determine which
eye has been used most, but there ara GER
tain peculiarltities of the pupil and lid that
may be taken as pretty sure signs by the
trained observer.
"Left-eyed people are made, not born. Most
OF us have been blessed by nature with eyes
OF equal visual power, but the attitude we
strike reading or writing causes us to eX-
eroise one eye more than the other and the
first thing we know we are right or left
eyed. This is a one-sidedness that should
always be taken into consideration when
buying glasses. A right-eyed man with left
eyed spectaeles, or vice versa. Is at a de-
cided disadvantage and 1t is the opticians
business to see that he is properly fitted"

CULICAN, sinaIoah. Jan, 25.-some of
the wealthy families of this city have left

short time on account of a fear that the
bubonic plague may reach here.
The state government, assisted by the
federal government, is doing everything
TO conhne the plague to Mazatlan. The
authorities are making a war on rats.
Thousands have been killed and the car
cases buried in the cemetery.
MEXICO CITY, Jan. 2b.-The charity

tween Nome and Port
Townsend.

PORT TOWNSEND, Wash, Jan. 25.-The
steamer Dawson City, eighty-six days from
Nome. reached port today, under sail, after
a tempestuous voyage.
The entire trip was marked by a success
sion of accidents. Soon after starting
south the boilers commenced leaking, with
the result that the fresh water supply was
consumed. Then fuel ran short and the
vessel was forced to resort to such canvas
as could be fashioned into sails. 1t put
into Port Moller for fuel and water and
after remaining two weeks started again,
only to run into fierce storms, which drove
II from its course. Again fuel ran out, so
Dawson City headed for Dutch Harbor
to refill bunkers and tanks At this port
the sailors deserted and refused to con-
tinue the voyage. The run from Dutch
Harbor to this port was mad. in twenty
two days, which is considered a very good
showing considering the weather and the
facilities for handling the vessel.
Dawson City brought no passengers
except its owner, Felix Brown Of Seattle,
and his wife.

fore Breaking silence.

NEW YORK, Jan. 25.-At a meeting Of
delegates of the United Irish-American
Societies Of New York, presided over by
Daniel F. Colahan tonight, resolutions were
adopted denouncing the trial and death SEN
tence Of Colonel Arthur Lynch as a trav-
esty on Justice.
The resolution says In part:
We desire to express our belief that the
British government Will not dare to carry
out the sentence imposed upOn Colonel
Lynch, and also to point out that the ac-
ton of an English court in finding a man
who had become In due form a naturalized
citizen of another country guilty of trea-
SON TO England, Is unjust, unfair and. a
gross violation of all the conditions under
which millions of citizens had been added
to the population of this country
At this time, when England for its own
selfish purposes Is attempting to conceal
its enmity to America under the guise of
friendship i'm order the more thoroughly TO
avail itself of our strength and power, It
endeaVOrs to set aside one of the cardinal
principles of our institutions and to take
strength.
We denounce its action as cowardly,
brutal and tyrannlcal and predict that II
will only serve to call the attention of the
world to the fact tina as you cannot change
the spots of the leopard, so you cannot
make the English government anything
but stupid, bloodthirsty, cowardly and
cruel.
National Societies Conservative.
A conference of representatives OF the
national Irish societies was also held to
consider the question Of taking concerted
action on behalf of Colonel Lynch.
About fifty delegates were present when
r. ]. Kennedy, president of the United
Irish league called the meeting to order.
Thomas H. Romayne, addressing the
meeting, said:
| advocate a policy of silence 80 faI
as the American Irish are concerned.
Twenty million Irish must have a heavy
influence in England in case they move
co~nservattvely Therefore l think ii best
to await instructions from Ireland, and
especially from Australia, where Colonel
Lynch was horn, and where, of course,
a deep feeling in his behalf must exist.
Unless l am mislnformed a telegram was
received in this city today from an Aus
tralian gentleman, saying that steps have
been taken there to invoke the clemency
OF the king In Mr.. Lynch's behalf.
Mr.. Romayne advocated the appointment
OF a committee Of nine - bring together
the representatives of the society and TO
act as a general committee for the Irish
men of the city in behalf of Colonel
Lynch.
The committee was Immediately organ
lied and decided to call a general con-
ference his week.

vssion of the American shoe is so seriously
affecting the English trade that extra
ordinary methods have been adopted to dis
credit the Yankee articles. One shop at

DEADLOCK is LIKELY


has broken in on It's executive work to
listen to ~eulogles on deceased members,
but the time has seldom been propitious
and laterly the practice has been meeting
with growing disfavor.
On account Of pressure Of business this
session 1t was decided to hold the memorial
sessions on Sunday and during the course
Of their e~ulogies today several members
took occasion to voice their recommends
ton of the innovation and to express their
opinion that it should be followed in the
future.
At the session today tribute was paid
to the late Representative Russell (CQnn.)
and Representatives Shepard and Defen-
grath (Tex.), each of whom died during the
recess. The attendance in the galleries was
quite large and there was a numerous as
semblage of friends OF the deceased mem
bers on the floor.
At 2:55, as a further mark Of respect
the house adjourned.
The house this week will probably con-
slider the Fowler currency bill. The house
managers have arranged to bring in a spe-
cial rule, making the measure q continuous
order until disposed of. While It is antic-
ipated that the bill will precipitate a lively
debate, its friends believe its passage Is
assured.
Tomorrow will be District OF Columbia
day and Tuesday will be given to quite a
number Of measures of minor Importance.
There are three appropriation bills on
the calendar And II any time should temain
they will be pressed forward, as 1t Is the
desire OF the leaders to get all appropria-
ton bills to the senate as soon as possible.

out, and 1t is also related that Dumas
himself, on a visit to If, greatly enjoyed
the joke. The chateau is to be sold by
order of the Ministry OF War, and the
sale was to have been conducted at Mar
settles Town hall recently. 1t having
been reported, however. that the building
was to be restored and converted into n
gambling palace, the local authorities took
alarm and conferred with the military au-
thorities. The result is that the sale has
been postponed, and it is probable that
when the property is again offered to the
public a clause will be inserted in the
conditions Of sale to the effect that the
chateau shall not be converted into a
gambling establishment.

VICTORIA, b. c., Jan. 25.-The steamers
AtheDian and fremont arrived today from
the Orient, having both sailed from Yoko-
hama and arrived within an hour Of each
other. The steamers bring further news
Of the revolution in Kansu.
Dispatches to the Shanghai papers from
La Shekow are to the effect that unless
Tung Fuh Slang is suppressed the powers
will soon find themselves face to face with
a bigger revolt than that of two years ago.
Missionaries are already beginning to leave
the threatened district.
Messrs. Rydbog and Soderstray, mis-
sionaries who have reached Shanghai from
Sinang, having come from the interior
because of the threatened revolt, in In
terviews given 20 a German daily paper of
Shanghai state Tung Fuh Slang is gaining
ground and intends to lead his army TO
sinang. where he will endeavor to make
his capital and place Pu Chun, who has
been proclaimed emperor, on the throne.
Tung is himself enlisting troops and
everything else points to the fact that he
has government support. Kansu and
shensi are overrun by Tung's forces. All
pro-foreign officials are being relieved
from sungan.
PekjnN correspondents also tell Of tho
threatened outbreak in the northwest and
credit Yong Lu, the real ruler Of China, I"
with being behind the movement.
The Canton correspondent of a Hong
Kong paper states that the rebellion in
Kwangsi is more serious than ever known.
The rebels, 1000 to $4,000 in number,
have taken possession of many districts
and towns and Pakngai Pakshek, Sishing,
syan, HinsSip and Lauchow are in their
possession. They are now marching into
Yunnan, armed with modern rifles. The
officials at Canton are enlisting soldiers.
