TO WIPEOUT JEWS
ANOTHER MASSACRE AT kISf1I-
NEF is PLANNED,
Scheduled to Occur on Russian
Christmas Day, January 7..Jews
There Realize the Horror of the
Situati"D..Daily Pamphlets In.
cite Massacre.

London. Dec. 2S.-This message has
been received in London from Kishinef,
Russia. The message is dated Dec. 10,
and was sent via Iglau, Dec. 26:
1t can be stated with grim and
gloomy certainty that unless the gov
eminent at st. Petersburg entirely re-
verses it's attitude, unless the expressed
indignation of the civilized world pre-
vents another massacre, the horrors of
last April will be repeated on the Rus
sian Christmas day, January I.
The Jews here are terrified already,
and their terror is we'll founded.
Leaflets, vehemently calling upon
"Christians and Russians to arise
again on Christ's natal day and to an
nihilate the Jews, were found strewn
in "The Moscow" tea shop, today.
1t was in the moscow that the pam.
phlets denouncing the Jews for alleged
ritualistic murder and melting the mas
sacre OF April were first discovered.
Grigorief, proprietor of the tea shop,
took the new pamphlet to the police to-
day. Thereupon Prince Urusow, the
governor OF Bessarabia. summoned DIR.
Mucznik, a prominent physician, the
president OF various charities, and the
head of the Jewish community. This
dialogue followed:
Prince Urusow-What would the
Jews do if there was another outbreak
against them?
DIR. Mucznik-The next time we will
defend our lives at all cost.
The Prince (smiling)-Defend your
lives? That is good. With what? Per-
haps with guns?
DIR. Mucznik-Yes, we will defend
our lives by every means, with guns, if
needful.
The Prince (threatsningly)-Very
we'll. Try it. But remember that
when the first drop of Christian blood
is shed cannot and will not be re-
sponsible for what the police and the
soldiers will do.
The horror of the situation of the
Jews at Kishinef is almost beyond be-
lief. No effort is made to keep secret
the preparations for wiping out half
the population of the city.
Daily pamphlets calling upon the
Russians to rise against the Jews on
Christmas circulate from hand to hand
and the distribution is aided by the po-
lice and soldiery OF the town. The
Jews know the fate that is to be theirs,
but cannot evade it.
No passports are issued to the Jews
in KisAinef in these days; they are kept
in the town to await the slaughter.
Those who have gone to other places
have been driven back at the point of
the bayonet, and about the town in a
drawn Gordon, grim, silent and merci.
lees, which holds the trapped Jews i'm.
prisoned within the town utterly with
out hope of escape from the city or

the Russian Christmas.

KLONDlKE MINERS LOSE.
No Rebate on Royalties From the
British Government.

No Rebate on Royalties From the
British Government.
Dawson. Dec. 2S.-A message from
London, England, says that the fight
made by certain number of pioneer
klondike kings for refund OF royalty
has been decided in London against the
miners. More than $4OO 900 has been
involved in the fight.
The issue was fought under the name
OF George Carmack, discoverer of the
famous placers on the Bonanza, which
startled the world. lie sued for a re-
fund OF $1,000 collected from him I'M
der the renewal Of his annual lease to
his Bonanza claim, obtained Sept. "a,
1897, date after the royalty impost
came into effect.
The renewal gave him right to
mine for year. and he contends that
1t gave him an exclusive right to all
the gold taken from the claim for the
year, beginning with the date OF the
renewal, and that he should not be
compelled within that time to surren-
der any share to the government.
The grant, Carmack contends, bore
words giving him the right to all the
gold mined on the claim for the year.
However, the authorities here proceed
ed to collect from Ciarmack ON the out
put of the year.
In the excehQuer court OF Canada
Carmack obtained a judgment for a
full refund. The government appea led
to the supreme court of Canada, and
the decision was overruled. But two
OF the judges were in favor of the re-
spondents, and appeal was therefore
taken to the privy council Of England.
About 100 cases on similar lines have
been pending long time. The Car
mack case was begun three years age.
The best lawyers in Canada and Eng
land have been engaged in the great
struggle and much money has been
spent by the Klondikers.
The contest has bristled with points
of law, and lawyers have been greatly
interested from legal standpoint.
Only brief telegram has been re.
ceived here, telling of the decision, and
the full text is eagerly awaited in the
Klondike country.

NJ anaging a Man.

Few women understand the extent
Of the influence they may obtain over
the minds and manners Of their mascu-
line belongings. supposlng them to pos
sess the ordinary amount Of tact and
patience to exert 1t properly.
Man is contrary animal. Once let
him discover you are Influencing him,
and never again will you succeed in
doing SO; for he considers 1t due to his
dignity to resent anything that ap-
proaches to petticoat government.
A woman's influence Is limitless for
good, and she who uses 1t, save Tor
good, wrongs herself and her woman
hood; and influencing man is not tax
ing the reins Of government out Of the
right hands, or bending strong will to
one that should be weaker. Indeed, she
who attempts or manages to give more
than lead" to any man will be none
the better or happier for the expert
ence.
But how to win the power that shall
enable woman, as maid or matron,
to give that lead?
Only tact and certain sympathetic
insight into the minds and moods Of
others Will teach the way.
The maiden who turns hObblede-
hoy, careless schoolboy brother into a
polished gentleman, by little appeals to
his chivalry, his dawning vanity, the
secret desire that turks In every heart
to be liked and admired. ia the girl
who will do as she listeth with her low
ers, and make her husband, when she
takes one, a happy and successful man.
For in the big things Of life in any
thing that does not touch her affec-
tions-in business matters, for instance
"a woman Is not only more cautious,
but more far-seeing than a man. Many
and many home, ruined by rash and
disastrous speculations, might have
been saved had the wife but obtained
influence that would have given her
gentle counsel weight.
The word In season-how good 1t
Isl" But there must be no ''preaching'
about the girl who would, for their
welfare, lead her brother, lover or hus-
band.-Home Monthly.

Changing and shaking up the pillows
when they have become rumpled takes
but little time. but 1t Is very comfort
Ing and refreshing to the patient.
The covering Of the bed should
vary according to the temperature Of
the room, the nature of the sickness,
the feelings Of the patient and the
the time of the year. Whatever these
conditions, the coverings should be as
light as consistent with the comfort Of
the patient.
Feather beds should never be used
In cases Of sickness. They are uncom-
Portable for the patient and keep the
body unnecessarily warm.

To Prevent Facial Lines.

After bathing with warm water and
drying the face, rub 1t all over with
the ball Of the thumb. This stlmr-
lates the circulation and strengthens
the muscles. If there are deep lines
running from the corners of the mouth
to the corners of the nose, lay the
thumb among them, and then work 1t
from side to side.

British Recognition of Panama Gel.

Colon, Dec. 2S.-Colon just now is
in state OF joyful excitement, fol.
lowing on the news that the British
government had recognized the repub.
lie of Panama.
The foreign population OF Panama is
largely composed Of natives OF Great
Britain, and the Britishers joined the
natives in their jubilation.
Senior Porforio Melendez, the civil
and military governor of Colon, rightly
interpreting the feelings OF the COM
munity, gave permission to the inhab.
itants to celebrate the event without
restriction, and full advantage was Civ.

Little Hints,


When the flnfier nails are polished
too often they become thin and tender.
A few drops Of alcohol in the wash
water invigorates and tones up the
skin.
Never cut the cuticle or any part of
the flesh around the nails; simply press
1t back.
Red noses come from many causes.
poor circulation and tight clothing be-
ing the most common.
When polishing the finger nails use
little rose-tinted paste. The palm of
the hands is the best polisher.
Don't let the hands swing down at
your sides, unless you want the veins
to become filled and the hands turn
red
Do not use sponge for bathing pur-
poses. They are not sanitary, being
difficult to wash and cleanse thor
oughly.
When the feet are continually cold
the hands are liable to become red or
blue. Warm feet have much to do
with white hands.
Massaglng the scalp with the finger
tips dipped in little castor Oil. olive
oil or vaseline for five or ten minutes
every day will strengthen the roots and
cause the hair to grow.
The occasional use Of gloves and
cold cream Is good for the hands. but
If worn every night the hands will be-
come yellow. 1t is best to perforate the
gloves and cut off the finger tips.
For tired and swollen feet hot foot
bath at night is probably the best heal
er; let the foot remain in the water
for some time: after drying they may
be rubbed with little sweet oil. and
by morning the swelling and soreness
will be found greatly reduced.

Wives Wanted.

A traveller In Arizona reports that
the young men Of the west are
bachelors not from choice, but from
necessity. OF the dearth Of women
in that section he says:
Thousands of cattle are standing
knee deep in alfalfa, the land is rich
and the young men are thrifty and
prosperous. But they can't get wives.
There are not women enough to 20
around. Arizona wants several car
loads Of women just as soon as she can
get them.
Census statistics support this view
Of the case. not only as to Arizona,
but as to number Of other western
States and Territories. In Arizona
there are 57,O27 males and only 3D.
12O females: In Kansas, 500, 1865 males
and 532,O68 females; in Washington
1882 males and 100, 155 females.

Girl Nurses.

All girls should know a little about
nursing, so to be Of use in times Of
sickness One of the most important
things to see to Is the bed. Very few
people really know how to make bed
properly; that is. to put the sheets on
evenly and smoothly. The sheets
should be large enough to be securely
tucked under the edges of the mattress,
and the greatest care should be taken
to smooth out all the creases, as
nothing fidgets patient so much as
crumpled sheets or sheets that keep
slipping from side to side
Then the pillows. The proper way
to arrange them is so that they are
neither too high nor too low, just of
medium height, to rest the back of
Of the patient when sitting up.
