 No, never in all my life nor under any circumstances have I introduced myself to any one as Lord Burlington If there is any one who says that ever did so, I should like to meet him on the witness stand"
 Did you not represent that your home was at Belmore castle?''
 The reply was in the same positive tone, NO, did not

St. Petersburg, February 29. = The czarina is untiring, day and night. in her efforts to provide comforts for the troops going to the far east and for the Red Cross society. A we'll organized guild movement Is now working at the Her mitage adjoining the winter palace, where patterns and material for every kind of warm clothing are issued to ladies to take home and make up. The American. English and other women are just as enthusiastic in this work as the Russians.
 The greastest success was secured by the young czarina in the opening of the exhibition of historical art objects at one of the museums here. the proceeds of which will go to the Red Cross society. Tickets of admission were sold by the Princess Beiosetsky, mother-in-law of Princess Serge Bolosetsky, who was a Miss Whittier of Boston, Mass. and oth- CT ladies of high rank.
 The tickets nominally cost $2.50, but many people paid a great deal more; State Secretary Palovsoff, one of the richest men in St. Petersburg, paid s5OO0 Their majesties the diplomatists mem bers of the higher nobility and all the fashionable people were present.

POSTOFFICE BLOWN
 UP WITH DYNAMITE
CITIZENS OBJECT TO NEGRO POST MASTER WHO WAS RECENTLY APPOINTED IN SPITE OF CON- TINUED PROTESTS.

Clarendon, Ark, February 29.-Because of the objection to the negro postmaster of Humphreys. in Arkansas county, who it is said was appointed notwithstanding the protests of a great majority of the white citizens, the postoffice building there was dynamited and destroyed early today by unidentified persons.
 Great excitement prevails. The post master before the present one was a negro named Toms. While he was in office dis satisfaction was generally expressed. Toms was accused of robbing the regis tered mails and sentenced to a term in the penitentiary.
 When the present postmaster was ap- pointed, after a time dissatisfaction was again rampant. The demolition of the postoffice Is thought to have been the result. The postmaster was not in the building at the time. So powerful was the force of the explosion that the office was blown to pieces.

ALABAMA NEEDS A
 GOOD RIFLE RANGE
M. D. LEWIS, WHO IS A CHAMPION Rl=Lr SHOT EXPIRE sSES SUR. PRISE THAT NATIONAL. GUARD Is NOT GIVEN ONE.

M. D. Lewis, a crack rifle shot is in Birmingham for a short time and yester- day was discussing the need of a rifle range for the Alabama national guard. MT. Lewis holds a score of medals which he has won through the past twelve years while shooting with the Illinois state rifle team, and among them is one of the famous Washburn trophies, which he won as the best shot in the national guard of five states last year.
 The various medals and trophies will be placed in the show indow of the Bir- mingham Arms company this morning Yesterday while talking of the advan- tage of a rifle range he said'
 q am rather surprised that the Ala hama national guard does not have an up-to-date rifle range. It is one of the most essential things to a good national e,,ard. I have been on the team of the Illinois national guard, and a person has no idea of the value of a rifle range Tor the militia.
 .4Not only does a rifle range add interest to the military for young men, but it e-reatlv increases the efficiency of the na- tional guard both fin times of peace and war. Take for instance company Whlcn practices regularly on rifle range. That company is 50 per cent better equipped for service than one which has never seen q range. The members of the company are better judges of distance are used to shooting straight, and have much better opportunity of shooting effectually if they
 ole e4x a man familiarity with his rifle which he gets in no other manner. 1t seems to mo that the first thing the state of Alabama would do would be to build q rifle range near the annual encampments, or where all of the companies can get to it con- YenIentlY."

TAFT GOES AFTER
 BIG BOND ISSUE Wants S1O,OO0,OO0 for Im- provements in Philippines RECEIPTS ARE FALLING OFF Bonds VIII Be Used for Port and liar bor Works, Roads, Bridges,
 School Houses and Va
 rlous Institutions.

Washington. February 2s.-Representa- tive Cooper of Wisconsin introduced a bill today amending in several impor- tant ways the act providing a civil form of government for the Philippines. The bill was prepared by Secretary Taft Its first provision is that all bonds Issued by the government of the Philippines shall be exempt from taxation, either by the government of the United States or the government of the Philippines.
 Five per cent bonds to the amount or s10 100000 are authorized for public im- provements in the Philippines. These bonds are to be approved by the Pres ident and secretary of war, and are to be used to provide for port and harbor works, roads, brldgee provincial arsd municipal schools, courthouses and penal institutions.
 Municipal Bonds Authorized.
 Five per cent municipal bonds also are authorized to carry on municipal improve ments, such bonded indebtedness of any one municipality not to exceed ten per centum of the assessed valuation of prop erty in such municipality.
 Secretary Taft was impelled to ask con- gress for authority to issue bonds by req son of the fact that the internal revenue receipts of the islands have been falling off lately, the loss last month being $2o0,- 600, and either important improvements must be made. or some part of their cost be placed upon posterity.
 Going on Four Years.
 Extensive work of internal improvement has been going on in the islands for the past four years. All of these works, build Ing >he breakwaters and docks, the con- struction of roads. the erection of school houses and bridges in fact all sorts of necessary work to develop the islands per- manently, have been paid for by the Phil- ippine government out of the cash re- ceipts not one cent of indebtedness has been incurred.
 In fact, the islands have no bonded debt in the actual sense of debt, for the cer- tifcates that have been sold in reality were to create reserve funds in the case of the currency. and where issued to pay for the friar lands, they are based on the value of the lands themselves, which are held as security for their redemp- tion.

OTIS even. corbett had the better of early part of the round.
 Round Ten.
 They mixed 1t again. fiercely exchanging rights and lefts to the body. Corbett, however, out-fought his antagonist and gave three blows to Sullivans one. Sul- livan jolted the champion with right uppercut and was ordered to discontinue holding by Referee Graney. Finally, Cor bett caught Sullivan with hard swing to the jaw and a left to the same place. Corbett received a straight left to the jaw as he broke away and they mixed again viciously, Corbett planting right and left to jaw. Corbett sent Sullivan to the floor with a blow very low and the crowd yelled foul. He followed 1t up with right and left to jaw and the bell rang. The foul while unquestionably delivered, was plainly accidental. The crowd kept on yelling foul at the end of the round, but Referee Graney paid no attention to the claim of Sullivan's sec onds.
 Round Eleven.
 In a mlx-up, Corbett planted two rights over the kidneys. He swung three hard lefts to Daves face and forced the latter to a clinch. Corbett jared Sulli- van with an avalanche of rights and lefts to the jaw. and Sullivan spit blood all over the ring. He saved himself only by holding on. Corbett sent Sullivan to the floor with fearful right and left swing, and as Sullivan came to his feet, Corbett beat his face into jelly. Sul- livan clung on desperately to the cham pion. Corbett kept beating his opponent mercilessly about the face and jaw, sending him through the ropes. The crowd yelled for Granav to stop tha oop. test. the game Irishman being practically helpless. Graney finally stopped the con- test and awarded the decision to Corbett. Sullivan. while not knocked out, was hopelessly defeated when the decision was given against him.
