Russia. 1t is understood, now claims that this proviso was violated by Japan when she mobilized her fleet and other wise showed signs of military prepara- tions which were construed as menace to Russia.
 Accompanying the news of the re-occu- patton of Neu Chwang comes warning from other agents in China that the Rus sian attitude is injuring the chances or the treaty which MT. Conger and Consul General Coodnow have been negotiating with China involving the opening to American trade of the ports of Taku-Shan and Moukden in Manchuria.
 The latest advices are that the treaty Is already practically lost owing to Rus. sian opposition. This fact is construed to give the United States a direct interest of what is happening in Manchuria.
 Baron Sternberg, the German minister and Sir Michael Herbert, the British am bassador, both called at the State De partment today.
 It was believed that their visits were in some degree, connected with the Man churian situation.

This york was completed and the entire constitution as amended was adopted. The new provisions are to go into effect on June | 5. The conven- tion decided this afternoon to address open telegram to President Roosevelt recting al- legged abuses of the mails by different street car companies and ask him to demand of the Postmaster-Ge General that he enforce the postal laws and correct the abuses.
 Some grievances were brought up by dele gates in the manner in which the United States mails were used in San Francisco and New Orleans during the time that the street car men were having trouble with their employers on account of organizing divisions of the union. It was asserted that in San Francisco the mail of the street car men was held up, that letters opened and photographs taken from the letters. which in many cases were posted by the employees at the various car barns This was done. it is all legged to deter employees from joining the

UNCLE SAM WATCHING.
May Join Japan and England in a
 Protest

Washington, May S.-The State Depart ment has received official confirmation from it's agents in China of the increase of the Russian garrison in Neu Chwang. Manchuria. and there Is reason to be- lieve, if President Roosevelt approves, that it is preparing to take vigorous steps In the matter.
 Secretary Hay is in communication with President Roosevelt in California and un- til the latter's decision the Secretary s course will pend
 It is stated that the department has had it's patience tried by the course of the events In Manchuria and that it now contemplates a more radical step than any which has heretofore marked the negotiations between the powers on this subject The proposed step contemplates Joint action by Japan, England and the United States.
 The preceding negotiations have been hampered by the inability of this govern ment to act jointly with other nations without violating its traditions, but 1t is now hinted that some plan of co-opera- ton with England and Japan may be devised that will have the effect of con- vincing the Russian Government of the united determination of the three nations to insist upon Russia's evactuation of MancnuTla, WIllP uDN dCludllN CbIliilll- ting the United States to a formal alli- ance.
 This program Is subject to the approval of the President If 1t Is not looked upon with favor by him the State De- partment may fall back on It's former method of individual representations to Russia and ask another explanation of the happenings in Manchura.
 In such event the Russian answer Is already forecast by the officials here. Under the Russian representation to the powers the troops were to have been withdrawn from Nep Chwang just one month ago today.
 It is understood as a matter of fact that a portion of the Russian force was withdrawn from barracks in the city to tents outside. It is presumed from Pekin advices that these troops have now re- turned to the city. However. it is pointed out that Russia employed a saving clause in the promise to withdraw from Manchuria. the language being Provided however, that the action of other powers shall not stand in the way"

 President Roosevelt said that he had received no communication from Secre- tary Hay regarding the affair. He had not been asked to approve of the course indicated and in fact had not even heard of the matter before.

The Folly of "scrimping."

Question is to change the subject. does 1t always pays to be saving? There Is kind of saving which. 1t strikes me, is no economy at all I refer to that pains taking "scrimping' which prevents enc from enjoying the good things of life. good clothes, good food, an occasional visit to the theater, an outing now and then. I know some women who save for problematic old age and who in conse- quence are enjoying all the misery of life at the present stage of the game. Un- doubtedly to save a little is good thing, but how many of us never reach the old age for which We deny ourselves so much
 I am reminded of the story of the old woman with the potatoes Every day when she went down cellar she picked out carefully those that were growing old and cooked them first The result was that she ate mOldy potatoes down to the end of the heap, for the fresh ones kept growing old while she was saving them and picking out the other ones. 1 think sometimes that, as in the case of the old woman. it is not short-sighted policy to use the best first.
 Artists are beginning to live-there Is not a doubt about that In the old Gays any old thing was good enough for an artist; dirt don't count, modern convent enCeS were not TOT nlLl, anu hTS. AGllSt concealed the household impedimenta as best she might behind convenient screens Now all is changed. New buildings for artists are springing up on all sides, and they are models of fine architecture and artistic interior decoration.

Secret of Good Dressing.

friend of mine said to me the other day: I wonder what is the secret or heinz well dressed? I spend enough money on my clothes, and yet l never can seem to get half the effect that my friend Mrs. So-and-so. does by spending third of the sum-"
 I looked at her. She wore brown suit with a black belt and a diamond, or, rath-, CT. brilliant, buckle. The open jacket showed a waist of white silk with r1b- bon around her neck of pale blue with little pink roses on 1t. Her hat was of black chiffon with deep red roses set un- der the brim.
 'If you had a brown ribbon belt or white one" I remarked, and touches of ecru together with a collar of white and ecru on the waist, and If your hat was either white, brown or some pale color, think you would be surprised at your own appearance"
 And that is a fact. The main idea is to wear gradations of the same shade, or at any rate not to wear more than | three coors at the same time. The plain 1 est woman will look attractive if dressed all in one color and the greatest beauty | will caricature herself if she wears all the colors of the rainbow.
 The best dressed woman I know has 1 only four costumes to her name. but each is perfect down to every accessory. and these accessories all match or harmon ize She is really well dressed. although she has not one-half the pretty things | that her richer friends have. Oh. these | pretty things-the useless, frivolous neck | wear which can only he worn once or twice, the drawers full of crushed rib bons, artificial flowers, etc! There is where the money goes.

Of II to S. There was not a very
large crowd present, and the enthu-
siasm had to be confined principally
to the %stduents, who were out in
good numbers with tin horns and
college yells.
At the outset it looked like Huron
was going to win out. In the first
inning Huron pounded out three
scores, due principally to the wild
throws, and in the fourth inning
they got another. They scored but
once after the sixth. Mitchell did
not hit the ball with any success un-
| til the fourth inning, when she got
