Yankee Common Sense

Washington, April 13.-Quick action
and the common-sense treatment of q
critical situation by an American naval
officer in China recently saved the for

Tung, along the east bank of the Cam
ton river, from falling victims to a
plot which, while primarily directed
against the Manchu dynasty, newt

Shameen, the coalition known to have
fermented the trouble extends to sew
eral provinces and official advices re-
ceived at both the State and Navy
departments show that reactionary
measures on scale far larger than is
admitted either by foreign representa-
tives or the Chinese Government have
been planned by the rebels.
Hearing that a force of rebels, led
by Hung Chun Fuk, native OF Wa
chow, had planned an attack on the
Viceroy and Chinese officials OF Can
ton during the celebration OF the Chi
nese New Year, during the nights OF
January 2Sth and goth. Commander
Drake prepared to defend the foreign
residents. An armed force OF 5000 men
had entered Canton surresptitiously
several days before he learned the
facts, and were hiding with sympathiz-
ers as most of the foreigners and Of
fetal representatives of the various ma.
tons resided in Shamen, Commander
Drake first completed his plan of de-
Tense, and then, to allay the excitement
which prevailed, he officially informed
the consulates and Chinese officials OF
his preparations and advised the COM
manders OF the English, German and
French gunboats OF the line of action
to be pursued in case Shamen island
was attacked. The foreign command
ers offered their cooperation, and plans
were perfected to meet any trouble that
developed, whether on the island or
on the water.

In the inner city at midnight to offer
incense the yiceroy and officials, con-
trary to long custom, remain ed in their

viceroy's yamen alone assembled 1000
troops. By 7 o'clock the gates to the
inner city were closed and the streets
cleared.
Many arrests were made that night
in which some compradores were i'm.
plicated and large amounts OF stores
were seized in houses and shops in
Fong Chun and Fates, opposite Sha-
men. Many other indications of the in
tended attack were found, and the OFF,
cials agreed that the rebels abandoned
their plot only because of Commander
brakes discovery and his prompt ac-
tion and that of the foreign command
ers in taking ample precautionary
measures. The landing OF an armed
force from each of the foreign war
ships had been agreed upon by the
American. English, German and
French commanders at the first evil
dence Of attack.

After the reading Of the Governors
messages reported in yesterdays Bulle-
tin, the second reading Of the eighteen
months salaries bill was taken up.
There was a discussion on the title,
resulting in changing the beginning
date from January to 4, 1904, in har-
mony with the County Act.
Senator Dickey moved TO reduce Mrs.
Emma Barnards pension from $3.50 to
5000, saying II was only $500 last per-
iod. In the talk raiseds> Senator Bald
win suggested that the Governor might
have put in $500 for the period to per-
NIT Senator Dickey to reduce IL.
The motion carried and the pensions
of Mrs. Simeona and Mrs. Stolz were
also cut back to the former rate of
$500 for the period.
Senator Dickey had the pension Of
Sergeant II. T.. Peterson. 1915, struck
out. He stated that the man lost his
sight in a sham battle, but had recov-

ssTHE WEATHER."
Rev. ]. M. Bull Lectured to Fair Aud
fence at the M. E. Church.

On Dec. 81, in the M. q. church,
Rev. J. NJ. Bull, presiding elder Of
the Pipestone district, gave a leo
ture entitled The Weather. Pre-
vious to the lecture those present
were favored with selection by
the male quartetta, Messrs. Lutz,
Duryea, Southwick and Peterson.
Mr.. Lutz then introduced Rev.
Bull, in his usual bright and cor
dial manner, and Rev. Bull then OPP
ened his lecture with the remark
that one of the uses Of the weather
was that it gave the people some
thing to talk a)olj. e
reason he was doing it. 1t is the
usual thing discussed when people
meet. They discuss the past hap
penings and future possibilities of
the weather. He referred to the
exceedingly warm days of 1901 and
brought out the fact that the Chris
tian scientist, the agnostic, and ev-
en- the Doweyite admitted it was
hot, who. if they had been honest 10
their belief, might think it to be
otherwise.
The usefulness of both good and
bad weather was then brought for
ward. First, it enables us to have
a weather bureau, which predicts
and notifies the country concerning
the weather. Then it also brings
people into prominence, mentioning
those who predicted about the
weather in different sections OF the
country. He mentioned the fact OF
the similarity of the people to the
weather-some sunshiny, some
stormy, and admonished all to look
on the bright side of everything,
and thus derive additional pleasure
out of life. Storms are even useful.
They develop character and pro-
mote decision. No type of manhood
is to be found in tropical climates
where they have but to reach out
and obtain their food. He said it
was in colder climates, where men
had to battle against the elements,
that character was formed.
Throughout the lecture there
were interspersed bright and ap-
propriate stories and anecdotes,
which illustrated his ideas and
greatly amused and entertained the
audience. The lecture upon the
whole was we'll received and proved
Rev. Bull to be not only thought
full, earnest speaker, but good en-
tertainer as we'll.
