KILLED SEVEN GUIDES
Filipinos Killed by Order Of a Civil

Manila Jan. 9.--In. the court martial Of
Major Edwin f. Glenn of the Fifth infan-
try charged with unlawfully and wilfully
killing seven prisoners of war in Sa1nar
last January, Louis r. Caulfield, second
lieutenant In the Philippine scouts, who
was in command of the detachment which
killed the native guides in question, tes-
titled that while Major Glenn directed that
the guides be executed if they failed to
lead the column to the enemy, he Leuten-
ant Caulfield, did not repeat Major Glenn's
orders to the detachment. He said he
gave no orders for the killing Of the guides
himself, and that their killing did not re-
suit from. the orders issued by Major
Glenn. . Ill.,, 49,. +s.--.-g-.. .-s j: WI
The witness testified that he did not see
the killing. He said that Preston and
Ramos, civilian scouts, reported to thin

ing to escape. RI &. ~. IL s.
A native sergeant who accompanied the
detachment under Ramos testified that
the first four guides had been executed
by, order of Ramos because they failed to
guide the column to the enemy. This wit
ness said tho guides had been given a
chance to lead the column, and when they
refused to- do so they We're made to kneel
and advised to repent their sins. The
sergeant then said that native soldier

THE AWFUL FAMINE
Relief Work Is Well Organized In Sweden

While the famine is more widespread in
FINLAND than in Sweden very little is
heard about the distress Of the Firms.
Nearly all the Finnish newspapers have
been suppressed and scarcely any infor-
nation as to the conditions come to the
outside world. The Russian government
seems quite Indifferent to the fate Of the
Trims. Private letters have revealed the
Fearful conditions and aroused the Firms
lin America to action. The Christian
Herald of New York has also undertaken
ito forward funds to proper persons in
FINLAND.
Trainloads of food for man and beast
jcontinue to be dispatched from southern
Sweden to the famine sufferers In the
north. Other trainloads are being drought

Norseman In, AbyssinIa.

Iver Lund, a son Of Lensmand Lund Of
Roedenaes, Norway, is the private Sec
rotary of the prince Of Abyssinia. He
secured his strange position through a
consul with whom he became acquainted
in London and is quite contented with his
lot In a letter to his parents Mr.. Lund
writes that he is installed in separate
villa at Harrar, the home of the royal
family. He is required to be mounted
whenever he appears on the streets and
is not permitted to disclose his position
to the natives. ~. Z
The temperance laws of Abyssinia,
writes Mr.. Lund, are very rigorous, the
penalty for drunkenness being the loss of
the tip Of the nose, which serves not
only as a severe punishment but a warm

is allowed at the court of King Menelik,

Happy Norwegian Police.

Norwegian police authorities report a,
great decrease in the number of crimes
committed by foreigners and this result
they attribute to the enforcement of the
law regarding the registration Of foreign
ers, which went into effect in May, 1901
The provision authorizing the police to
Danish Objectionable persons has had a
most salutary effect in restricting the
operations Of imported criminals. Swed-
ish crooks and vagabonds have been a
constant source of worry to the Norwegian
police and though they still give trouble
the conditions are much better than they
were before the law went into effect.

- A NERVY UNDERTAKING
From Norway to Cape Town In Little
Fishing Smack.


Captain G. O. johnson Of Lillesand,
Norway, has arrived at Cape Town, South
Africa, in the little fishing smack, Rama,
with which he left Norway on Aug. l..
The vessel was four months and six days
on its long voyage and though encoun-
tering several storms and more or less
bad weather arrived at Cape Town In
good condition. Johnson's feat is re-
garded by sailors as remarkable and ex-
ceptionally daring even for a modern
Viking. He bought the boat last summer
and interested four other men who lived
near Lillesand in his South Africa VEN
ture. The little Rama was sheathed with
copper, placed in the best possible con-
dition and provisioned for a long cruise,
after which she sailed away. She touched
at Dover England; Madeira and Dakar
on the west coast Of Africa. Storms drove
them to the west far out of the course
and as provisions had run short they were
obliged to make Bahia, Brazil to get
another start.
