HOW cHEMAWA HAS GROWN.
Great Indian School Celebrates Birth
day With Good Cheer.

Chemawa.-The Chemawa Indian
School celebrated its twenty-fourth
anniversary one day last week. The
pupils were given a half-holiday in
honor of the day, and in the evening
the whole school assembled in the
auditorium and an appropriate pro,
Sramme was rendered, consisting of
addresses and music.
Twenty-four years ago the school
was started by Captain Wilkinson. of
the United States Army, at Forest
Grove, and shortly after was moved to
its present location at Chemawa.
Then it had accommodation for rs
pupils, now 1t can care for 600 pupils:
then it had three small frame build.
tngs, and a half-acre of land. now It
has 81 commodious structures and
345 acres Of as good land as be found
N the Northwest. From this small
beginning it has grown in size and i'm.
portance and is now the fourth larg-
est in the United States, and is class
ed as the Industrial School of the In.
dian Service.
It's pupils come from California,
oregon, Washington, Nevada, Idaho
Montana and Alaska.

CHINA CAUGHT IN A TRAP.
Russia Knows She Can Never Take
Up Siberian Railway as Per Lease.


Up Siberian Railway as Per Lease.
Paris, March 3.--Information has
been received from Harbin which is
extremely interesting at the present
time, dealing as it does with the
Trans-Siberian Railway. A cores
pondent of Martin met M. Chaffaujon
the noted French explorer, and the
latter discussed the railway. which
he has recently inspected. He de-
clares Russia does not own the land
the road Is constructed on, despite the
general opinion to the contrary. Rus
sia merely has 99-year contract or
lease.
M. Chaffaujon declares the treaty
with China stipulates that, if at the
end of SO years, China desires to en-.
ter into possession of the line, she
may do so, after reimbursing the
company for all of its expenditures
for the construction and maintenance
of the road.
M. Chaffaujon declares it is difficult
to imagine China refunding to this
Russian company the millions that
would be necessary under the lease,
and declares the Flowery Kingdom is
caught in a trap.
The terms of the lease, also, he de-
clares, provides that Russia shall
have the right to place all of the sol
diers necessary in the territory ad.
Joining the line of road in order to
guard it, and also to build such sta
tions as it desires.

NO TROOPS TO GO.
Cabinet Decides to Let Marines Re-
main at Panama.

| Washington, March 3-Importan
matters relating to the Panama cana
were under discussion by Presiden
Roosevelt and his cabinet today. At
torney-General Knox and other off
cials of the department of justice
have under consideration the title tc
the canal property, which is to be
passed to this country by the Panama
Canal Company, but as yet they have
reached no conclusion.
1t was said after the meeting that
no money could be paid by this gov
ernment until clear title to the prop
erty was obtained, but no intimation
was given as to the length of time
which might elapse before decision
was reached.
The entire subject of the canal and
its construction was discussed in ad-
dition to the legal phases of the ques-
tion. In this connection it was decid-
ed, as heretofore indicated might be
the case, to countermand the orders
issued to the Third United States In
fantry to go to the isthmus to relieve
the marines now on guard duty there.
For some time the marines will con
tinue to guard the isthmus. This gov
ernment is opposed to establishing
two Jurisdictions on ths-isthmus, and,
as the naval vessels must remain
there, it was thought best to allow
the marines to continue to do land
duty.
1t is the earnest wish of the Presi-
dent and the members of the cabinet
that no unnecessary delay occur in be,
the work on the canal, and 1t |
IS their intention to press it with the
utmost vigor.

SAY FORT WILL DESTROY FLEET
Russian Military Authorities Have No
Fears for Pert Arthur.

Moscow, March 2. - Interest
throughout Russia is now fixed on
Port Arthur, and speculation as to the
probable fate Of that supposedly i'm.
pregnable fortress takes the widest
range.
The publication of General Stos.
sells order to the troops, while it has
had the effect of arousing enthusiasm
in Russia, had also attracted atten-
tion to the tremendous strategic val.
ue of that fortress and to the crucial
part it plays in Russia's plans for the
defeat of the japanese in Corea.
While the failure of the Japanese
attempt to bottle up the feet evoked
sarcastic comment from the Russian
press as to the Japanese cunning and
the miscarriage of the enemy's plans.
the Russian military authorities are
pointing out that this attempt having
been defeated, therefore it must fol-
low Port Arthur is impregnable ana
the Japanese can never capture it.

RUSSIAN SCOUTS DRIVEN BACK
Japanese Encounter Infantrymen in
Neishborhood of Ping Yang.


I Toxic, March 2.-The first shots Of
the war on land were exchanged yes
terday at Ping Yang. A small detach
ment of Russian infantry evidently
scouts, appeared this morning to the
northward of the town. The Japan.
ese outposts opened fire from range
Of 100 meters, and the Russians re.
tired. The telegram reporting the in
cident fails to mention any casualties.
1t is presumed there was none, on ac
count of the small number of men en-
gagged, and the distance separating
the opposing forces.
1t is anticipated here that there will
he a small engagement soon some
where in Northern Corea, where the
Russians are scouting over an extend
ed area, close to the Japanese posi-
tions, but general engagement is not
expected to occur for some time.
The Russian force south of the
Yalu River is ineonsiderable, its
greatest strength seeming to be in the
vicinity of Viii. North of the Yalu
the Russian army is constantly in
creasing in numbers, and is being
mobilized, but the chances of its as
suming the offensive are still slight.
Japan is constantly strengthening its
position and increasing its force in
Corea.

FIRE AND WATER.
Twin Elements Take Fourteen Lives
OFF Tillamook.

Seattle, Feb 29.-Fourteen peopl,
lost their lives as the result of tn,
ilre on the Pacific Coast STEAMSHIP
Company's steamer Queen from Sar
Francisco to Seattle, early yesterday
morning. The origin of the fire is as
yet unknown. 1t started in the social
nall of the vessel at about 4:3O in the
morning, and ragged for three hours
before 1t was got under control
When the confagration was first
discovered, the life boats, containing
the women and children and many
men, were launched, but three of
these, owing to the heavy seas, were
capsized,. spilling the passengers in
the water and causing the loss of their
lives. Three men, walters on the YES.
sci, were suffocated before they could
reach the outer air in safety from
their hunks in the glory hole in the
after part of the ship, and one woman
died from exposure.
According to the stories told by
passengers and crew of the Queen,
which arrived in this port at o'clock
this afternoon, the vessel was off Til
Iamook and about 80 miles from land
when the fire was discovered There
was heavy sea on, and the ship |

JAPANESE SHIPS HEADING BACK
Take on Coal and Ammunition, and
Leave for Port Arthur,

Leave for Port Arthur.
Wei Hal Wei, March "A portion
of the Japanese squadron was sighted
off the Shantung coast this morning.
The warships are believed to have
been coaling and replenishing their
supplies of ammunition preparatory
to rejoining the ships at Port Arthur
and renewing the bombardment of
that port.
Min Mong Chul, the new Corean
Minister to China, who is proceeding
to Pekin, paid an official visit to the
British Commissioner at Wei Hal Wei
today. He expressed the opinion that
the new -Corean treaty will
greatly strengthen Corea and give the
country renewed life for the future.
Coreans, he said, recognize Japans
honest intentions regarding their fu-
ture welfare, and he considered that
the future development of Corea is
now assured. Japan will prevail
against Russia, he said, and Corea
will do all in her power to bring this
about.
