PEKIN PER?LEXED
BY the Rumors Of a Russo
Japanese Conflict.
Has No Doubt That Russia Means to
IN Hold All She Has
But Is Somewhat Undecided as to Her
Own Standing.

Pckin, Oct. 19.-Like other cities in the
Far East, Pekin, is perpleXed by the re-

STA proposes TO hold all she has gained
in Manchuria. and refrain for the pres
ent from further advances into Corea.
1t is also believed that Russia, is con-
WINGED that no nation except Japan
thinks of contesting her position and
having assembled fleet and army
which she considers strong enough to
repel any Japanese attack, she is await
ing developments in Japan's policy.

Prospects For a Large At
tendance at Second Sale
Next Monday.
LARGE TRACT OF BEST PINE
TIMBER WILL GO.
Favorable Location Is Expected
to Get Out Big Crowd Of Buyers
From All Over Country.

M. D. McInery, special agent
of the interior department located
in Crookston, yesterday received
telegraphic instructions to pro-
coed to Cass Lake and be present
on the 2Sth when the second
large sale Of government timber
is to be sold.
The sale will exceed in interest
that held earlier in the month, as
the pine lies in a more compact
body, and nearer the railways,
making it more accessible to
market. The bids are expected
to run as high as those submit
ted at that time, and those were
the largest ever made for stand
ing pine.
The tract is on the east and
south side Of Cass Lake, and a
strip five miles wide and twenty
miles long contains the best body
of standing pine now extant in
northern Minnesota. Theforestry
reserve corps, under the direc-
ton of Chief Forester Bruce of
the department of agriculture,
has been over the tract and has
marked the trees that are to be
leftstanding This includes five
I per cent of the amount and all
trees so marked are under ten
inches in diameter.
Judge ]. I. Parker, chief of the
division of public lands and rail
roads, and Geo. r. Pollock, chief
of the special service of the pub
lie land Office, will come out to
attend the sale with Mr.. McEniry
and it is also expected that Land
Commissioner Richards or his
assistant, Mr.. Fimple, will come
out from Washington to be pres
ent.
Owing to the favorable location
of the Pine it is expected that
the Minneapolis pine buyers will
be present and bid upon the tim
Der, although they were not
prominent among those who
submitted bids earlier in the
month.

THE NEGRO PROBLEM.

After a trip through the South to
study the problem, DR.. r. $. acArthur
of the Calvary Baptist Church has re-
turned to New York. He visited nine
Southern States and met representa-
tiyes from three or four other States.
Speaking of his trip he said:
at must be admitted that in my
travels l found men sensitive over
the Booker Washington incident at
the White House, but even they are re-
covering from the effects of the
first shock. They now learn that the
Presidents act bears no more rela-
ton to the social equality of the races
than the political atfiliation of the man
in the moon.
Even the bitterness of the Crum ap-
pointmen5 is fast passing away, and
the South has unbounded admiration
for President Roosevelt and his wonder
full achievements, in his strenuous per-
sonality and unspotted character.
.The people of the North should trust
the South more fully today in its treat
ment of negroes than ever before. The
difficult problem of the past is fast
nearing its solution. Mr.Carnegle's gift
came at an opportune time. Booker
Washington is the Moses to 9,OOO,O 900 OF
blacks today that Moses of old was to
2. OOO. 900 Hebrews. He is another Wash
ington, only to vastly greater numbers
than was our general and President.
GA brighter day is coming, when the
mutual trust between the North and
South will solve the problems OF the
hour. The future of the negro III the
South is bright, not dark; hopeful ano
not despairing.'

| patterned somewhat after the OLA po
drida of Spain, the chowder of New
England, and the bouillabiasse of
southern France, but contains more
/ ingredients and more fiavors than all
of them put together.
Another stew, simpler than puchero,
is called chupe, favorite breakfast
dish, but not often served at dinner.
The lower classes are fond of the hot
! test picantes, compounded of meat,
fish, crabs, corn meal, potatoes, bananas
and red peppers, mixed with the juice
of bitter oranges and stewed in water.
| We have tasted this wonderful mixture,
but could not manage second spoon
feal in consequence of the fiery nature
of the peppers. Fred says they use
pound of pepper to pound of all the
other ingredients, water included. Fol
lowing torch-light procession would
be preferable to dinner of picantes.
In the poorer parts of Lima there is
picanteria every few yards, and each
establishment has its numerous patrons
among workmen employed in the vi
cinity. FANNIE B. WARE.
