The Whisper Court.

AT Rockford, Essex, England, the
whisper court is a strange observance
held annually under the superintend-
ence of the steward of the manor.
The business of the court is carried
out at midnight in the open air; the
absence of a tenant is punishable by
fine of double his rent for each hour he
fails to be in attendance. No artificial
light, except firebrand, is permitted
and the proceedings are recorded by
means of one of the embers of the
brand. The roll of fourteen tenants
is then called over, and answered to in
a whisper Very many years ago the
lord of the manor, after an absence
from the estate, was returning home
by night. On the way he accidentally
heard some of his discontinued ten
antry plotting his assassination. Thus
warned. he returned home by an un-
expected route. Then he ordered that
each year his tenants should assem-
HE at the same time to do him hon.
age around a post which he erected on
the spot where the plotters met.

terests, II threatened either by the ag-
gressive action Of any other power or
by the disturbances arising in China
or Korea" the compact continues: IF
either Great Britain or Japan, in de-
Tense of their respective interests as
above described, should become in
volved in war with another power, the
other high contracting party will main
tain strict neutrality and use its eff
forts to prevent other powers from
Joining in hostilities against it's ally"
This is followed by the significant dec
laration: IF in the above event any
other power or powers should join in
hostilities against that ally, the other
high contracting party will come to
it's assistance and will conduct the war
in common, and make peace in mutual
agreement with it. The high contract
ing parties agree that neither of them
will. without consulting the other, en-
ter into separate arrangements with
another power to the prejudice of the
interest above described"

Chinese Study Anatomy.

Dissection has no place in the Chi
mes study of anatomy. The Chinese
look upon the skull and the pelvis
each as one bone. They think that
the small intestine communicates with
the cavity Of the heart, while the colon
terminates in the lungs; that the liver
is the habitat of the soul; that the gall
bladder is the receptacle of courage;
that in it's ultimate structure the body
is composed of fire, water, earth, wood
and metal. Truly this is fearful and
wonderful.

New Ration for Army.

Hash viii probably be honored by
governmental recognition. Commissary
officers in different parts of the coun-
try. under orders to make experiments
in the use of hash, have issued canned
hash to some of the troops with most
satisfactory results. If future expert
ments are as satisfactory, hash will
probably be introduced as part of
the ration of the army.

Russia considered at this time that
some show of respect for the rights of
China would raise her in the esteem of
the nations, and she made pretense
of being ready to evacuate Manchuria.
A convention was signed at Pekin
April s, 1902, by which it was agreed
that Manchuria was an integral part of
China and subject to the administra-
tive powers of Pekin. The period of
evacuation was reduced from three
years to 10 months. Russia agreed to
withdraw from the Great Wall to the
LAS river within the first six months
of the signing of the treaty; from the
east of the Lias river, including the re-
mainder of Mukden and Kirin, within
the second six months, and from the
Heb lung-Kiang province within the
third six months. Russia further agreed
to evacuate Niuchwang as soon as the
Tientsin provisional government
should be abolished, or in any case
within the second six months. Parts
of these agreements were carried out,
but the Chinese officials complained
that in departing Russian troops had
carried everything portable from the
railway lines, and further that soldiers
had only moved to the concessions
along the roads. In fact, Russia SEEM
ed to be immovably installed in Man
churia and continued it's aggressions
in Korea The mikado determined up
on strong measures, and Aug. IL last
sent a formal protest to st. Peters,
burg, with a demand that Russia sign
a treaty STIMULATING the independence
of Korea. The answer from st. Peters,
burg was long delayed, but finally 1t
came and was couched in conclllatory
terms.
The answer referred to contained
significant counter proposal. This was
to the effect that the car would agree
to the independence of Korea IL Japan
should grant a free rein to Russia In
Manchuria. This was further taken to
mean that Russia asked a free hand
with regard to all China. Japan az
once declined the proposal She knew
she was.bound by the treaty with Eng
land to preserve the independence OF
China, and even had she not been en-
meshed by treaties she could not agree
to the Russian proposals. She insist
ed upon settlemert of the Korean
question without any reference to con-
ditions in China or Manchuria, but
Russia insisted to the last that she
should at the least enjoy as much IN
fuence in the hermit kingdom as did
the Japanese. Japan declared that
Korea was vitality necessary to her, as
demand for the evacuation OF Man.
churia was asserted measure of pro-
lection of her Korean rights. The car
could not see the force Of this argu-
ment and the tension increased until
Russian troops were landed at Chemu-
20 Jan. 6, and sent to Seoul. The an
swer of Japan was to draw the sword
that so long had been blinking Gag
erly in it's scabbard, and the war was
on.

After extensive negotiations a treaty
was signed Jan. 80, 1902. This treaty
caused establishment throughout the
civilized world; that its opening SEN
tence gives the import of the notable
compact, and discloses that it was es-
pecially aimed at Russia, and reads as
follows: "The governments of Great
Britain and. Japan, actuated solely by
a desire to maintain the status quo and
general peace in the extreme east, be-
ing moreover specially interested in
maintaining the independence and ter
ritorial integrity of the empire of
China and the empire of Korea, and in
securing equal opportunities in these
countries for the commerce and indus
try of all nations. hereby agree as fol-
lows: "Then, declaring their rights as
to China and Korea, and asserting it
to be admissible for either of them ito
make such measures as may be indis-
pensable in order to safeguard those in

good company store customers, but. In the

have cut the price so low that the miner
can not live at the present price Of

some say about this matter, and IL our pco-
