GREAT BRITAIN AND JAPAN

There has been deal OF speculation
as to whether England would back
Japan in her efforts to place de-
cisiye check upon Russian aggression
and there is every indication that Great
Britain intends to stand by In the
crisis.
The Anglo-Japanese treaty was de-
signed to maintain the general peace
in the extreme east and the independ-
ence and territorial integrity OF China
aud Korea, and to secure equal oppor-
tunities in those countries for the COM
merce and industries OF all nations. The
treaty stipulates that either party may
take all necessary steps to safeguard
it's interests in those countries; that, II
either should go to war with another
lower in defense of its interests, the
other will maintain neutrality and
seek to prevent other powers from
Joining in hostilities against its ally.
II any other power or powers should
Join in hostilities against that ally,
the other contracting party will come
to its assistance and will conduct war
in common and make peace in mutual
agreement with 1t. Neither party Is
to enter into separate arrangements
with another power without consult
ing the other, SO that the interests Of
neither may be prejudiced. 1t is also
stipulated that, when the interests OF
either party. in its own opinion, are
jeopardized. the two governments are
to communicate freely with each other.
Here we have the obligations of the
two nations distinctly defined. The
treaty is avowedly aimed at Russia =
bold, aggressive policy.
This treaty is eminently satisfactory
to our government. In fact, American
interests are identical with those pro-
vided for in the treaty, as Secretary
Hays notes to China and Russia since
1900 show. Secretary Hay, upon the
occupation of Manchuria by Russia
during the Boxer troubles, demanded
what the Cars intentions were, and
notified him that We expected the
maintenance of the open door of trade
in Manchuria. Russia disclaimed in
tention of permanent occupation, bu
size remains. and is arranging to stay
there permanently.
Under the Anglo-Japanese treat!
England is not Obliged to help her all,
unless Japan is assailed by more thar
one power. For instance, England
would remain neutral II Japan wer
at war with Russia alone; but, II an
other power Joined Russia agains
Japan, she would have to mobolize an,
go to her help This kind Of allianc
is not OF the direct-action kind It woul
seem Japan might desire. This is tn
first time England has sought an ALI
ance with far eastern power, and
embodies a note Of prudence. Eng
lands interests In the Orient, however
are closely menaced, and her prestig
in the East has already been injure
by the successful aggressions of Rus
STA. and 1t 10 very probable that,

Territory of Hawaii VS.. John Baker,
alleged attempt to bride Government
officer, was nolle pros'd in Judge Rob-
inson's criminal court yesterday after
noon.
The AFFAIR will be remembered az
that in which Deputy Attorney Gem
eral L. c. Peters was said to have been
approached in regard to the contem.
plated protection OF gambling houses
in this city. Peters listened TO the
proposition only to extend the hand OF
the law for the purpose OF clutching
the man, Chinese, supposed TO be re-
sponsible for the scheme. John Baker
was also arrested later.
Baker was said to be implicated in
the attempted bribery. The Chinese
and Baker were indicted. The Chinese
was convicted. Bakers case dragged
along for over seven months.
Attorney General Andrews stated this
porning that the convicted Chinese
was always recognized as the chief
actor in the bribery scheme. Baker
had been held for the purpose OF MAX
ing the case complete. There had been
the possibility Of Baker being Grimm
ally implicated, but there was now
practically no case against Baker.
1t is believed that Baker had moth
ing further to do with the matter than
to act as Interpreter for the Chinese.
There was some rumor Of a nolle

RADlUM ROULETTE.
Game That Is Played In the Dark
Amid Ghastly silence.

Radium roulette is the latest rage
among sporty folk, says the New York
Journal The idea was imported to
New York from Paris recently, and the
man who brought it to New York, a
guest of well known uptown hotel
said that it has proved the biggest
winner in the way Of an innovation
that New York has known In years.
Radium roulette is ordinary roulette,
except that the apparatus is washed In
a radium solution, and the game is
played in a room in which there is
not ray of light.
In the midst of the darkness the
wheel shines brightly, and rays shoot
out and are lost in darkness. An un-
seen hand casts the silvery ball on the
wheel, and as the wheel turns it re-
sembles a mass of molten silver. Tiny.
sparks mark the course Of the ball as 1t
bounds round and round and finally
splashes into one of the glimmering
pockets.
The players have luminous chips,
and the unseen croupier rakes them In
or hands them out. All during the
play there is the most ghastly silence.
No player speaks-that is a part of
the game. Ennuied Paris has found
thrill in it that has excited the blase
rounder, and in New York city 1t is
expected that similar result will fol-

10 SAVE CALIFORNIA ELK,
Rich Catu~msn TO Have Preserve
For Them Near San Francisco

san
The California elk Is 10 be saved from
extinction. Henry Miller, the cattle
King, is TO save the elk. says the San
Francisco Chronicle. He Is at work
upon u magnificent country home with
in easy reach of San Francisco. Ii is
called Mount Madonna, because ii tops
little mountain of that name; but
ElkwoOd might be a more appropriate
designation, for il Is about this sur
passing country seat that Henry Miller
is arranging preserve, immune from
gun and dog and the civilized things
which harry forest dwellers. where the
California elk may live on in peace to
the perpetuation and even increase of
his kind.
The cattle king will be able to carry
out his praisewOrthy scheme. because
already he owns about all the Califor-
mia elk which lift their anters today.
There may be $50 specimens of these
magnificent elk liz California. Henry
Miller owns 125.
The elk which he now owns compose
what is probably Che only herd of
American elk which It will be possible
to save. In the terribly rough Jack
sons Hole country of Wyoming, in
Arizona and in few places farther
east the last of the elk are now in hid
ing. Tardy game laws have come too
late TO permit the reiuvenating of their
kind in the United Ststes. The elk must
soon follow the moose, wl.oSe fate was
that Of the buffalo. Henry Miller would
have elk In California when elk are to
be found nowhere else in the country.
Miller's elk are on one of his many
'cattle ranches, the Buena Vista ranch,
in the mountains of Kern county, thir-
tyfour miles east of Bakersfield.
When first cattle were driven there the
elk We're plentiful. Herds of elk graz
ed and browsed with herds of steers.
With the settlement of the country the
elk thinned before the settlers guns.
When but few We're left Henry Mil
Ter saw that complete determination
was close at hand, and he interfered.
He chose the best wooded portion of
his land, containing hundreds of acres
of timber and thicket. in places almost
impenetrable, and built about the great
area an eight foot fence. The fence
was left open at places, and the nat
ural instincts of the elk taught him in
time that only within this ideal re-
treat, always guarded from hunters
and intruders, was he safe. The elk
of the whole vicinity took up their
home there and their number has in
creased within the last ten years.

ture, consisting of two stories and Il
basement, with large veranda on one
side the entire length Of the building.
The main auditorium will be on the
first floor, and part of the second aoor
will be utilized as gallery. The re-
naming part of the second story will
be taken up with parlors, reading
rooms and Sunday school class rooms.
In the basement will be kitchen. din

WAGE REDUCTION.
Free Trade Means Composition With
European TOilers.

Free Trade Means Composition With
European Toilers.
In the tariff plank Of the Republican
platform It is asserted that "the meas
ure of protection should always at least
equal the difference In the cost Of pro-
luction, at home and abroad"
Let the workingmen Of the United
States take note of this.
The difference between the cost Of
production at home and that abroad is
caused by and equal to the difference
between the wages paid to American
workingmen and those paid to the toll
ers Of foreign countries.
Protection for American industries is
protection for American wage earners.
The Republican party says to foreign
manufacturers: "You shall not bring
the products Of underpaid labor into
this country to compete unfairly with
the products of well paid American Ia
Dor. As much as you withhold from
your employees shall be paid into the
treasury of the United States by those
who buy your goods, so that when
those goods are offered to consumers
here they cannot be sold below the
prices of goods Of the same class made
ut home"

vocates Of wage oreduction.-Albany

SAVED FROM PRISON BY HEAT
Jurymen Reimburse n Girl Who Lost
$40 Rather Than Swelter.

The stuffy little Office of Justice of the
Peace w. Z. Hall at Cairo, n Y, was
jammed and overf1owing the other day
as the case of Walters versus Freleigh
was on trial, says the New York World.
1t was sweltering, and the jury, COM
posed of hill men. fairly siZzled in
hearing the case. Miss Pearl Walters
had lost ten dollar bill on the street
and she accused Albert Freleigh, fif-
teen years old, Of having the money.
Master Albert admitted having once
had the lost bill, but said that it had
disappeared. When he had picked up
the money in the street he placed it, he
said, in his trousers pocket, with 70
cents of his own money. A few min
utes later he met chum and went
with him woodchuck hunting. Return
ing to town, Albert met Miss Walters,
who told him of her loss.
We'll, found the money, and here
1t is" said Albert, running his hand
into his pocket. The So also the 70
cents in silver, had slipped through
hole in the pocket. Alberts eXplana-

had him arrested. The boy told his
story in straightforward way and the
jury was much puzzled as to what
should be done. Finally, while they

FOR CHILD TRAVELLERS.
Suggestion That Special Cars Fol-
Exclusive Occupancy De Provided.

Suggestion That Special Cars For
Exclusive Occupancy De Provided.
An editorial writer In the New York
Post makes a suggestion that viii com.
mand much appreciation from the trav-
cling public. says the Boston Herald.
1t is that the railroad companies on
trunk lines where there is much travel
provide a special car for children In
which they can be cared for by their
parents and nurses, aided by some
motherly experienced woman compe-
tent for the business, or left entirely TO
official care. Two good objects would
thus be accomplished. The children
would have good time and people
travelling without children would be
much relieved. Here is the suggestion:
The walls OF the car should be padded
and the windows set high enoug., 20 insure
abundant ventilation without the danger
that any spirired youngster might climb
out and be killed. AS a rule. children do
not care for scenery. There should be
few simple bits of gymnastic apparatus.
a swing, a hobby horse, a skipping rope
and a stock of strong toys and indestruc-
tible picture books. Instead Of a porter
there should be installed in command of
this domain patient. resourceful moth
erly woman to perform the double func-
tion of nurse and mistress of the revels.
suggesting new forms of entertainment.
having an eye TO the safety of the weaker
in contact with the stronger children,
acting as umpire in controversies and as
emergency surgeon for the petty wounds
of play and tucking the tired and sleepy
ones into little cribs In a compartment in
one end of the car.
All the considerations affecting this
innovation are thoughtfully worked
out, and its great advantages are set
forth with excellent humor. 1t Is pre-
dicted that the company which estab-
fishes such car, which, like sleeping
car or parlor car, would command spe-
cial rates, would soon become popular.
Whether the writer would have a strict
requirement that all children should
be transported In the special car pro-
vided for them is not stated. This is
delicate point. Perhaps the important
object, the relief Of those who do not
relish travelling with children, could be
accomplished by running special cars
to which children are not admitted, ac-
cording to the rule Of some New York
apartment houses.

The population of the north end OF
Kansas City shifted suddenly toward
Third and Main streets about o'clock
the, other night, and so great was the
commotion that several policemen
about headquarters ran for their coats

the, center of the crowd was an old
man preaching. II had to get an au-
dience some way" he explained when
a policeman tapped him on the shoul-
der. The preacher had tried In vain to
gather few listeners about him, but,
falling to do this, he started on the
run up Main street, shouting gospel
truths on the way. BY the time he had
