Guam's Supply Of Dogs.

An officer of the marine corps brings
to Washington the interesting inform
alton that a feature of one of our in
suIar possessions is an abnormal sup
ply of dogs Guam of which we know
so little save that it served as a pri-
son for transported F'ilipinos, is IA
nous for its dogs. Poverty stricken
and constitutionally lazy, the natives
naturally take to dogs. Neither the
natives nor the dogs have enough to
eat and in the struggle for food the
superiority of the biped over the
quadruped is shown and the dogs get
the worst of it. But even where things
are equal the dogs show more activity
and roam about seaching for food,
while the native wallows in the filth of
his dugout.
The dogs are great nuisance to the
white people who are compelled to live
in the island. They prowl about the
houses at night and seize anything that
smells like food and make off with it.
They will even break through windows
of the houses. The marine officers say
that the dogs are thin and bony, vi
cious on account of hunger, and gener-
ally very disagreeable lot. He tried
to keep them from his quarters with a
shotgun, but the shooting at all times
of night disturbed other officers, and he
adopted the poison method. He sup
piled the dogs with fresh meat tho
roughly inoculated with quick acting
poison from the medical department,
and each morning obtained a crop of
Guam dogs. Not that he wanted them,
but he did want sleep, and this was
the only way he could obtain it.

THE TRAGEDY AT BELGRADE.

4 The bear with the bloody paws
NAV know more about the murder of
the servian royal family and ministers
than the world at large will ever find
out. In statecraft either at home -

The story from Belgrade reads ike
one from a far past. In it are sounds
from the Cicilian Vespers, from st.
Bartholomew day, from the palace
revolutions on the Golden Horn, from
the horrors of the Tower. An an l-Eer>
sary of a royal murder comes bell
tolls at midnight, a signal booms sullen-
ly on the dark, there is heard the rush
OF armed men, the breaking down of
palace gate, a few smothered shrieks
in distant rooms, and then comes the
by the assassins of a new
law and a new King. How old the
gruesome story In how many ages
past has this scene been acted over! In
this one how the dramatic unities of
ancient times have been preserved,
times that were before those of Darius
and Rameses and all the somber and
fated monarchs gone.
Will things ever be any better? The
world is millions Of years old yet men
still respond, on provocation, TO the
primal instincts of murder al d slaugh-

our city fathers have added to the rich

the race, because they have made a
word spring up where there was none
before. At any rate, they have given

TIME TO CoLONlZE.

From the number of inquiries made
nv farmers about Hawaii there is no
doubt that, II the Territory wants farm
ers badly enough to open up lands for
them, the necessary ones can be had
IL Is a great pity the way things are
roine. So shrewdIy was the Settlement
Association law devised to promote the
interests Of Spectators and large ranch
owners that vast areas Of arabic land
are put into the hands OF men who are
not and do not intend TO become farm
ers but who are able, nevertheless, TO
fuI6u the conditions of occupancy. By
raising a little forage grass and few
aIgaroba trees they can hold their
farms indefinitely. The net result TO
the Territory is practically nil
Nevertheless It is feasible to set aside
tracts for coIonists from the mainland,
like those at wahiawa, and IL this were
done and men sent to the Coast to or
ganize such colonies. FROM AMONG
