NEW CHWANG GIVES
PRESS BOAT TROUBLE.


Continued from First Page.
day by the arrival of a press boat,
indiscreetly bearing two Japanese serv-
ants, who were arrested and probably
will not be released for several
months.
On account Of the fact that the Rus
slams have not yet arranged the local
status of correspondents such indis-
cretions are apt to be interpreted as
indicating cooperation with interests
inimical to Russia, which may inspire
erroneous conceptions of the situation
in the minds of the war correspond
ents. The crew and the staff of the
press boat are under surveillance and
the vessel must leave on the first fav-
orable tide.
The Russian administration of this
city and port so far has been liberal
1t is being managed in the interests
of commerce, allowing freedom to the
cargoes of ships and placing no re-
strictions on the freight way and tele-
graph lines.

of an appeal to the Supreme Court of
the verdict of the Superior Court was
filed to-day by counsel for William j.
Bryan in the Philo S. Bennett VIII
case. The appeal is from the finding
which excluded as part of the will
the sealed letter."
1T is not a matter of personal in

ans counsel. Mr. Bryan considers it
his duty to carry out the wishes of
Mr.. Bennett. He has no thought of
profiting by the will himself"

And rivalry, and pain and care,
So faint and far there comes a doubt
If it be there.
Here, care GIBBS out with every tide,
And peace comes in upon the flood;
The heart looks out on life, clear-eyed,
And finds it good.
On that fair land, on that still sea,
A spell of mystery lies;
And all the thoughts they wake in me
Are mysteries.
Once more stand upon the shore;
How peaceful yon far world doth
seem!
A willing exile, evermore,
Here let me dream.

CRUEL JOKE UPON HER.
Woman Was Told Her Brother Was
to Be Shot.

Washington, April 2.-Letters re-
ceived at the Navy Department show
that Mrs. w. M. Wallace, of Solvay,
N. Y, and her family and friends
have been made the victims of a cruel
hoax.
The lady mentioned wrote to the de-
partment she had been informed that
her brother, John Coffey, an enlisted
man in the navy, had been sentenced
to be shot on the 18th instant, and
asking for more particulars so she
might arrange for the interment of his
remains. There was no foundation
whatever for the report, and the lady
has been so informed by Secretary
Moody. There is a man named John
Coffey, rated as a coal passer on the
battleship Maine at Pensacola, but so
far as known at the department, he
has done nothing to require his trial
by court-martial, much less his punish
ment in any way.

SAPELO.

Far from thy shores, enchanted Isle,
Tonight 1 claim a brief surcease
From toll and pain, to dream awhile
OF thy still peace
To wander on thy shining strand,
And lose awhile life's troubled flow;
Its tumuits die upon thy sand,
BEST Sapelo.
The sun is setting in the vest
The last light fades on land and sea;
The silence woos all things to rest
And wooeth me.
So here I lie, with half-closed eye,
Careless, without one vexing thought,
While cool uncounted hours drift by
In dreamy sort.
And, ever, sweet thoughts without
words.
The shadows of old memories,
Rise up and float away, as birds
Float down the skies.
In dreams I see the live-oak groves;
In dreams 1 hear the curlews cry,
Or watch the little mourning doves
Speed softly by.
l hear the surf beat on the sands,
And murmurous voices from the sea;
The wanton waves toss their white
hands
And beckon me.
Once more adrift meath sunny skies.
Where sunny seas have in their keep
The lotos-lands. 1 see arise
From out the deep.
Thy purple woods, uplift in air
Above the misty horizon,
AS the kings gardens lowered fair
Ger Babylon.
We win into that silent sea;
Our keel glides noiseless to the shore;
Sweet eyes and true hearts welcome
me
To. rest. once more.
The peaceful ocean hints not here
The sorrows Its deep caves conceal;
A loving Spirit broodeth Ger
Its waters still.
My thoughts are set unto it's sounds;
Their echoes rise and fall along
Life's weary rounds.
The waves are murmurine on the
beach.
A soft wind whispers in the palm;
There is no sound of Tuder speech
To mar the calm.
The happy sun comes up once more
Above the woods 1 know so we'll;
The rosy heaven, from shore to shore,
CLOVIS like shell.
see the great old trees and tall.
Sheeted with tangled vines that sweep
From limb to limb-a leafy PAIL
Where shadows sleep.
The long-moss waves in every breeze,
Like tattered banners, old and gray;
And sigh and sigh the old, old trees
All night, all day.
With flower and fruit at once arrayed.
The orange groves are passing fair,
AS though all seasons loved such
shade.
And fingered there.
A mocking-bird on quivering wings.
Floats up and down the woodland
ways
And, glad with me, he scars and sings
Our song of praise.
Slow, solemn cranes. with drowsy eyes.
Nod in the shallow surf, high;
And snow-white gulls, with hollow
cries.
Fit softly by.
The turning tide runs slowly out;
| hear the marsh-birds calling shrill,
The toiling oarsmen's song and shout
Come to me still.
hear their boat-songs through the
night
| think II is my heart that hears
The old songs sounding yet, despite
These long, long years.
White clouds are drifting out to sea:
Like clouds the great ships come and
go,
AS strange and white and silently,
AS soft and slow.
From far-off lands, like tired things
They wander hither DER the deep.
Here all things rest; they fold their
wings
And fall asleep.
Far off 1 see the dim coast-wall.
A long low reach of palm and pine,
The marsh between, and over all
The wide sunshine.
And far beyond, and farther vet.
Thank God, so far the loud world
seems.
That seems its memories and regrets
AS wrecks of dreams.
When one awakens: all its rout,

THE TWO MESSAGES.

The President sent to Congress,
upon it's reassembling on Monday,
q message giving all the facts and
data with regard to the Panama
business. 1t is plain straightfor-
ward and able statement, such as
should command the respect and
confidence of the whole people. 1t
is very readable document.
On Tuesday Gov. Beckham's S
message was read to the Legisla-
ture. 1t is plain and simple busi-
ness document, filled with the
proper information and recon-
mendations for the enactment OF
such laws as he deems necessary
to put upon the statute books.
His opening paragraph is one that
commends itself to the better judg-
ment of all private citizens Of the
State. 1t should be thoughtfully
needed by the Legislature.
While we do not agree with all
the measures advocated, we do
most heartily commend its tone as
conservative and wise.
