tion on Manchuria.

Three. Warships Have Been
Ordered TO Newchwang.

Pekin, April 24.-Russia has demanded
that China sign an agreement practical
" ceding to her the sovereignty of Man
churia and excluding other nations from
that country. The Russian charge daft
flares. NJ. Planeon, has informed Prince
Ching, president of the foreign office,
that no further steps in the evacuation
of Manchuria will be taken until this
agreement is signed
Prince Ching refused the Russian
terms, but his refusal probably pleases
Russia as well as his acceptance would
have done, because either alternative
means the REIMBURSEMENT Of Chinese
sovereignty in Manchuria
The Russian demands are as follows:
First, no more Manehurian ports or
towns are to be opened; second, no more
foreign consuls are to be admitted into
Manchuria; third, no foreigners except
Russians are to be employed in the pub
lie service Of Manchuria fourth, the
present status of the administration of
Manchuria is to remain unchanged:
fifth, the customs receipts at the port OF
Newchwang are to be given to the
Russo Chinese bank; sixth, a sanitary
commission is to be organized under
Russian control; seventh, Russia is en-
titled to attach the telegraph wires and
poles of all Chinese lines in Manchuria
and, eighth, no territory in Manchuria
IS to be alfenated to any other power.
No explanation has been given to the
Chinese of the Russian Interpretation Of
the fourth demand, Chinese officials
are greatly disturbed, but they are
powerless.
While the foregoing demands were
before the Chinese fer consideration NJ.
Plancon assured his colleagues explic-
lily that the only reason for the delay
IN restoring the government of
Newchwang to the Chinese was the or
ganlzation of the sanitary commission.

In the Khirgiz steppes of southern
Russia IS q strange settlement named
Iletzk, from which "a $50 tons Of salt
comes every wear. This salt. it has been
shown by recent borings, extends to a
cesta OF 600 feet below the surface Of
the earth. At present the workers have
dug down to a depth Of 399 feet, where
they are ta1x.ng the salt out of an inn
mense and beautiful chamber that is
7S4 feet long and It's feet high When
seen in the radiance OF the electric light
this underground cavern shines ike
fairy palace, for walls and roof and pill
lars are snowy white and beset with
nayriads Of crystals. each of which
gives a reflection Of its own. The
great pieces Of salt are blasted out with
powder just as if the mine We're a stone
cuarrSz It is very hard to use metal
in the mines. for. the salt eats it away
quickly On the contrary, wood is
hardened and preserved beautifully by
it.-Detroit Free Press

SCHOOL BIBLE STUDY.
DR.. E. G. Hirsch Tells Why Book
Should Not Be Used.

Chicago. April 24.-In an address upon
the Bible and the schools delivered
yesterday afternoon before the High
School Teachers association of Cook
county DR.. e G. Hirsch deplored the
tendency of certain churches. ministers
societies and other religious organiza-
tons to attempt TO get the reinstate-
ment of the Bible in the schools of the
city. He declared that the reinstats-
ments would result in the disruption of
all influence for peace. He based his
objections to the reinstatement upon
the following five reasons.
THAT it would be exceedingly diffi-
cult to determine what Bible should be
used.
That many taxpayers. whose rights
should be respected, object to it.
THAT by merely reading the Bible,
without comment. in the schools would
not secure satisfactory results in ethical
training and moral and religious teach-
ing.
That it Is questionable whether the
ethics of the Bible. as commonly inter-
preted, are the ethics of modern life
DIR. F5irsch said that science and the
acquiring of it had not made men virtu-
Gus, as it had aided the evil man as well
a the man who used it to good pur-
nose
