THE CHINESE REFORM ARMY
Service Being offered to Ambitious
Young American Soldiers.
They Are wanted to ono n the Chs
nese Imperial Reform Array
tn Southern China.

Tacoma, Wash, Nov. 15.-Quietly
but aggressively, young American Of
ficers who have had experience in the
Philippines. or in national guards, are
being recruited throughout western
states for service in the Chinese I'm.
perial Reform Army. Scores of officers
capable of becoming neutenants, cap
tains and majors, have signed appnca-
tons, and been accepted. Scores of 9TH
er applications are now under cons1d-
Grafton.
The Chinese imperial reform army
is understood to have its headquarters
in Canton and provinces of southern
China. AS near as can be ascertained,
it is being organized by leaders OF the
reform movement in China, who are
allied with reformers who were in
power several years ago, when the
Chinese emperor started to modernize
China.
One purpose of the army will be to
Quell rehellions which have been devas-
tating southern China for years, and
one of which is now placing many i'm
portrait cities Of Kwangsi province un-
der control of rebels.
American officers, whose services are
being sought, are being informed that
o total Of 1000 American officers are
desired for offlcering the modern Chi
nese army. to consist of at least 200,-
900 soldiers. Services are especially
desired Of men who have seen service
in the Philippines. They are being
paid in gold, with salaries to equal
those paid in America.

CARDINAL MECENNI DEAD
Venerable Prelate Passes Away at
the Vatican OF Paralysis While
COnaistOry was in Progress.

Rome, Nov. 15.-Cardinal Mecenni,
who was administrator of the apos-
tolic palace under Pope Leo XIII, died
at the vatican of paralysis willie the
consistory was in progress Monday.
DR.. Lapponi, who attended the car
dinal until the last moment, went to
the apartment of the pope to prepare
him for the sad news, fearing that it
might have bad effect on him. The
pontiff has not yet quite recovered
from his recent illness.
Cardinal Mocenni, Monday morn
ing, was apparently better. He insist
ed on getting up, and even refused to
be assisted to dress himself He seat
ed himself in his customary arm
chair, but shortly afterwards sudden
ly became worse. DR.. Lapponi was
hurriedly called, but only arrived in
time to announce the cardinals death.
The pope wished to go Immediately to
the death room, but was asked to wait
until 1t was put in order. The funeral
will take place on Thursday.

STOESSEL WOUNDED
REFUSED TO RELINouIsH COM.
MAND or THE GARRISON.
CONDITION IS NOW BEYOND ALL HOPE
Spirit Of the Russian Soldier Dam.
pened, Supplies Are Low, and They
Realize That the End Must Soon
come-ordered to Die at Their
Posts Rather Than to Surrender.
Many Deserters.

Headquarters Of the Third Japanese
Army Before Port Arthur, Nov. Is,
(via Fusan).-It is said that the
wound received by Gen. Stoessel has
necessitated his confinement in a hos
pital; that he refused to relinquish
the command of the garrison, and that
he has issued orders to the troops to
die at their posts rather than sur
render.
1t is said that the spirit of the Rus
sian troops has been dampened by
continuous work, the lack Of supplies
and the hopelessness of their ability
to make any successful defense of the
fortress. 1t is said further, that many
of the Russian soldiers are ready to
surrender, but that they are kept at
their posts by officers who threaten
them with revolvers, and that several
soldiers who were suspected of de-
sire to desert have been shot as a
warning to others. The Japanese
now believe that the garrison has al
most reached the limit of human en-
durance.
Spies and Russians who have surren-
dered report that rations in the for
tress have been reduced. The wound
ed found by the Japanese are ema-
ciated.
Russian artillery shells are made
partly Of killed wood, and do not ex.
plode. This shows that the Russians
are short of material for making
heavy ammunition.
The capture of the eastern fortified
ridge will mean the surrender Of the
fortress in couple Of weeks unless
the garrison there retires to the iso'
lated forts. This seems improbable,
however, and cold weather and the
lack of food and ammunition renders
desperate resistance unlikely.

Rv Wire and Air.

An accidental experiment in the veloc-
Lty of sound is recounted by CORE
spondent. He went to his telephone
and just as he put the receiver to his
ear he heard the click Of another tele-
phone. Another receiver had been re-
moved and the line was open. Then he
heard through the telephone the shrek
of locomotive whistle, and few sec
onds later the sound came through the
open window in the usual way. Looking
up, he saw a locomotive half mile
away, passing the house Of friend.
The mystery was solved. The telephone
that was open was that at the distant
house, and the sound of the whistle had
come through its Transformation into an
electric current quicker thanit had trav-
eled through the air.-Youth's Compan-

AUTHORITIES in THE DARK
Nothing of Importance Has Devel-
Oped I'm the Weber Murder
Case at Auburn, Cal.

Auburn, Cal, Nov. 15.-The Weber
murder case is progressing slowly, as
nothing can be done until the entire
ruins have been run through the min
er's sluice box. The weapon that was
used to commit the murders has not
been found.
The debris will all have been
worked over by Wednesday. and if the
32-caliber revolver is not found, there
will be proof that Julius Weber, the
father, did not commit the crime.
The officers are in possession of evil
dence that points strongly toward
Adolph Weber as the man who robbed
the Placer County bank here last May.
The coroner's inquest will be resumed
on Wednesday. The feeling against
young Weber is running high, but as
he is in the county jail, there is no
fear of any unlawful act on the part
Of the citizens. Only his relatives and
lawyers are allowed to see him.

THE JAPs AND THE MULE.
Rice Growers of Nippon Are Not Anx-
ious to Employ the hybrid
in Their Work.

$50 the Japanese rice growers are
not willing to tackle that interesting
native institution, the American mule.
without the aid of home folk" said
an observant man, according to the
New Orleans Times Democrat, ''and
can see where they are right about
the matter. The American mule Is
a lOng-eared, Quick-heeled, supple
Tinted mystery, and no man, no mat
ter how wise he may be, can do any
thing with him unless he have special
training. AS a matter of fact. the
white man in America is sadly de-
fcient when it comes to a working
knowledge Of the mule. Up to the
present writing the American negro
is the only living person who can
claim anything like mastery when it
comes to the mule. Somehow there
is something in the nature Of the
black man and the mule which makes
1t easier for them to get along. Just
what it is do not know. But even
the black man will have his ups and
downs now and then with the mule,
and l have seen some very interest
ing instances Of this kind, one Of the
most amusing being that Of an ex-
tremely hard skulled negro who never
wanted a better weapon than his head
In any sort of conflict with man or
beast.
"One day he fell out with his mule.
Ordinarily, they set along well enough
together But in some way the mule
vn the day in question made the
negro mad and the fight began. In
the first place, the negro broke his
water jug over the mules head. This
did not feaze the animal. Grabbing
the mule by the ears and taking a
good, firm grip, the black man landed
with vigor between the mules ears,
using his head as weapon. The blow
was a knockout blow all right, but
the trouble was that it knocked the
negro out also. Both mule and negro
fell to- the ground like dead. In a
short while both were fairly good
friends again. The Japs are right.
They will need special training on
the mule proposition and no mistake,
and the negro is about the best man
hey can get to do the training"

ROOSEVELT WILL STAND PAT.
Position on His Negro Policy viii Not
BE Changed One Whit In the Future.

BE Changed One Whit In the Future.
Washington, Nov. 15.--It is settled
that President Roosevelt will have no
new negro policy, as some Of his gra-
tuitious spokesman would have the
country believe. The president has
spoken and 1t is the old, old story; he
simply Stands pat"
He said substantially to several
intimate friends today that his negro
policy, If there was such policy,
would remain unchanged. He said
that he would continue to recognize
merit and worth regardless Of imagi-
nary boundaries, and that he proposed
to be for the next four years, as he
had been during the past three years
of his tenure in Office, "the president
of the whole people" President
Roosevelt said that his actions with
regard to the negro had been miscon-
strued and misstated, and that when
such ceased to be the case he felt that
his position on the subject would be
understood in its proper light.
The president did not state whether
he would appoint such negroes as DR..
Crum, of Charleston, to responsible
