A JAPANESE DEADLOCK.

y defect in the law has given rise to 4
curious incident in Aichi-kon about an ir-
rigation guild. The Edashita irrigation
canal excavated between Nishikamo and
Hekkal district has been constructed first
as the private work of one Shinzo Nishi-
zawa, and then as the undertaking of Mr..
Takasane Kawamure. The canal being of
great importance for irrigating the rice
fields of the two districts, the villages
concerned decided to get transfer of the
work from its proprietor, and an agree
mcnt was arrived at between the two par
ties at the price of 10000 yen.
The arrangement made was that the
price would be paid down in cash. and
that If payment was not made. interest at
the rate of L per cent a year should be
paid. The idea of those villages was to
organize an irrigation guild as communal
property. the fund to be raised by loan
from the local Industrial bank.
When the matter was submitted for the
sanction of the home office the sum to be
paid to the proprietor of the work was re-
duced to $4,000 yen. The communal irri-
cation guild. which has been duly organ
ized. then convoked meeting to pass the
resolution about this change in the price
But this resolution has never been arrived
al. owing to the fact that though meet
ing was convoked more than ten times
quorum was wanting on each occasion.
This has subjected the seller of the work
transfer of his Observation-Disclosures
10 considerable inconvenience. as was
quite natural. inasmuch as the transfer
OF his property TO the guild had been made
on condition of receiving $4,000 yen for it.
He applied to the Kencho 10 have the
matter settled. but the Kencho's power
is seriously crippled owing to the absence
IL the existing Irrigation guild regulations
Of q provision compelling the said guild
to pass a resolution. As the law stands.
the Kencho has TO remain passive. waiting
for the time when the guild is disposed
20 pass a resolution. and all that while
the proprietor is deprivsd Of the right Of
getting even one sen from the work he
had constructed at an enormous expense.
This is. indeed. an extraordinary thing
and we are not surprised To learn that the
authorities are contemplating to introduce
a new irrigation guild measure in the next
session Of the diet.-Japan Times

pirate crew. as an alternative to walking
| the plank. This was where her path in
| life crossed that of Anne Bonney.
Unknown to any of the picaroons as
! women, save only to Rackham. Mary
and Anne lived on the pirate ship for a
long time and went through enough
| thrilling adventures TO serve for library
of penny dreadfuls." They were both
utterly fearless and bore themselves very
bravely as the bravest men amidst the
crash of cannon and the carnage Of
battle.
Mary Read achieved great honor and
distinction among the pirates one chron-
icier says TO courage and daring she
had united such skill as a swoTdsman
that she was foremost in all desperate
adventures.
Like Anne, Mary had her own romance
aboard the pirate ship. 4 young car
penter was taken prisoner on one of the
prizes captured by Rackham, and was
enlisted among the freebooting crew. He
was a good looking young fellow, and
Mary fell secretly in love with him. just
as she had done with her Fleming in
Marlborough's wars. a romantic incl
cent FASTENED the declaration Of her love.
Aboard pirate ships tempers were short
and quarrels easy. One day the carpen-
ter got in a dispute with one of the
sailors, and ended with a challenge to
fight a duel. Mary was present, and.
fearing for the safety for the man she
loved. she threw a glass of rum and
water in the face of his enemy and de-
manded that he should wipe out that
insult by fighting her before he tackled
the other fellow. BY the pirate code of
honor he was obliged to do so.
Her life as a soldier had made Mary
an expert in workmanship. After a few
passes she ran the man through the heart
with her rapier and laid him dead at her
feet. Afterward she told the carpenter
who she was, won his love, and they
were secretly married at the next port
at which the vessel touched.
Such are the romances which Rack
ham Cay commentaries. Both of these
remarkable women showed in every ac-
ton of their lives a greater intrepidity
than one ordinarily expects from even
the bravest man. An old chronicler says
that Rackham was permitted to see Anne
Bonney Just before he was led out to
the execution. She did not condole with
him, but, knowing what desperate cour-
age would do even in the worst straits,
she roughly remarked: If you had fought
like man before you had been taken !
you would not be led away now to be /
hanged like a dog"
Which must have been cold comfort |
Cor poor Rackham. coming as it did from
his best beloved.
For two years the skeleton of the pirate
chief hung in chains on the island that /,
bears his name, and then the great hur- |
ricane of 1722 swept away the gibbet and /
bore it down to the shore. Curiously /
enough this instrument of death was the /
raft of life TO one poor fellow. a negro /
laborer, who had been left on the cay !
to do some coppering work, chung to it ,
and was washed safely to shore during |
the hurricane.

CANAL TREATY STONED.
coIombla at Last Agrees, Diving United
States Full Police Control.

Washington, Jan. 23. - The treaty
between the United States and Colon
bia for the construction Of the Panama
canal by the United States was signed
yesterday in this city.
No details Of the signing of the treaty
were obtainable, but at the presidential
reception at the White House last night
the news that the treaty was an accom-
plished fact at last leaked out. Later
the news was confirmed in official quar-.
ters. II had been intended not to make
the signing Of the canal treaty public
until today, but the news apparently
was too good for some Of this friends
OF the canal to keep. Fears had been
entertained until this week that Colon
bia would not be willing TO accede TO
the wishes OF the United States in the
matter and that recourse to the Nicara.
qua canal project might be forced on
the government of the United States.
But this week events took mere
favorable turn, and Colombia transmit
ted instructions to DR.. Herran, it's rep
Tesentative in the United States, that
made possible conclusion Of the long
negotiations. The principal obstacle
for some time to the conclusion OF the
treaty, 1t is understood, has been the
price that the United States was to pay
in the shape of cash payment and by
way Of annual rental for the strip OF
territory along each side OF the canal
right Of way. 1t conld not be learned
last night what was the price finally
agreed upon.
Some time ago there was hitch over
the question OF the extent to which
control by the United States over this
strip Of land should go, Colombia OBJ
iecting on the ground that the provis-
ions required in the treaty BY the Unit
ed States would mean a REIMBURSEMENT
OF sovereignty by Colombia over part
Of her territory; but this matter was
amicably settled. az was difference as
to the lifetime of the lease of the strip
of land in question, the final result
being practical cession in perpetuity
to the United States for canal purposes
and incidental police control and pro-
lection of the canal right of way.
