Over Jealous Admirer of Los An

vive Wounds.
LOS ANGELES, April 2.-Shrews-
bury Salmon, aged 10, fired five shots
at Joseph Sneideki, aged SO. to-day,
two of the bullets taking effect, one in
the left arm and the other in the neck,
infiicting wounds which may result ia
tally. The shooting was in Salmon
room and was the result of the atten-
tions which Sneideki was forcing upon
Salmon's mother. He had called at the
house scores of times during the past
several weeks and had repeatedly de-
manded of the woman that she marry
him. She refused every time he made
the proposal, and on one occasion he
tried to cut his throat because of her
refusal.
To-day ne appeared at the house and
again demanded that she marry him,
but she again refused. He then said
he would get a marriage license and
return, and if she did not consent then
he would kill somebody. An hour later
he again appeared at the house, and,
entering young Salmon's room, accused
him of having influenced his mother
not to consent to marrying him. Dur
ing the quarrel which followed Snei-
deki attacked the young man, who fed
from the room, but his assailant fol-
lowed him. Finding himself cornered
Salmon drew a revolver and COM
menced shooting.

LONDON. April e.-It IS feared in
high quarters that Great Britain's
continental enemies may seize upon
The slaughter OF Tibetans near Guru
as a pretext for launching a campaign
Of abuse against this country. 1t is
recalled that the Boer war. which was
campaign Of the same nature, al
most produced an international crisis
OF the gravest order. There is no
doubt that Russian susceptibilities
have been wounded by the British ex-
petition 10 Tibet and that any ef-
fective plans for causing Great Britain
embarrassment in connection there
with would be relished in ST. Peters
burg.
Downing street has already been ad-
vised Of the activity Of certain promi-
-fent Russians in the direction of
establishing close relations between
the dual and triple alliances at the ex-
pense Of Great Britain. King Edward
Ministers are alive TO the possibilities
OF the situation. but scarcely believe
that anything Russia can do will dis
turb the growing cordially Of France
and England and Italy and England.
They feel absolutely certain, what
ever may arise. Of the firm friendship
OF Japan and the United States.
Abandoning all pretense as TO the
nature OF Colonel Younghusband's
mission 10 Tibet, the Standard says:
For the defense of India, and for
no other purpose, English officers and
Indian soldiers have been sent to Tibet
10 endure the hardships Of its inhos-
pitable mountains"
UNNECESSARY BDOODSHED.
The slaughter Of Tibetans kills such
waning interest as still existed in Lon
dOn in the japanese and Russian strug-
gle. The news Of the wholesale blood
shed eXcites, as a general rule, feel
ing Of depression, because the average
Englishman scarcely sees that il was
necessary and because there was gen.
eral apprehension that il may lead to
. complications with Russia
The last thing the British public
wants at present is another war. and
what is most dreaded is a rise in the
income tax Hence the tragic. events
in Tibet are especially unwelcome at
this period, when the taxpayer is nerv-
called on 10 pay of the national debt
The extreme Liberal papers seized
on the slaughter at Guru as one OF
the worst bi0ts on the history Of Eng
land. The News declares that no more
"want0n or discreditable business has
been breaved by our proconsuls in India
since the tire Of Lord Lytton."
Other papers Of the same political
views describe Colonel YOunghusband's
mission as another Jameson raid
The Government organs. while ex-
pressing the regret felt IN official cir
cles that such an event occurred at
this moment, reiterate Foreign Secre-
tary Lansdowne's assurances TO Rus
sia that Great Britain has no inten-
ton Of anneXing Tibet. The text Of
those who defend Colonel Younghus-
bands action is Lord Lansdowne's
statement in the House OF Lords that
all Great Britain desires is q new con-
ventiOn with the Tibetans, and with
China as the suzerain OF Tibet

The opposition. however. points out

that China has repeatedly protested
against the strength of the escort with
which this political mission" is ac-
companied and declares that, as a
matter OF fact, Great Britain is now
at war, not with Tibet. but with Chi
ma. thereby endangering China's neu-
I trality toward Russia and Japan and
risking the peace of the world. This
extreme view is ridiculed in official
circles, where the case of Cuba is in
stanced as a parallel.
Ii is held in Downing street that
Tibet by refusing trade privileges,
returning official letters unopened and
not respecting boundary rights. has
become as dangerous a neighbor to
the Indian empire as Cuba in her un-
rest was to the United States. Much
stress is laid on the fact that regret
table bloodshed was due at first only
10 a hostile act emanating from the
Tibetans; but this defense is not
likely to have much weight in the agi-
tation which the Liberal party doubt
less will foster against the motive that
prompted the expedition
Lord Curzon of Kedleston, Viceroy
Of India, is soon likely TO share with
Lord Miner, British High Commits

sonal hostility aroused among the op-
ponents of the Government by the in

masses. who have shown in the bye
elections that they have lost faith in

ton, which only the defeat of the re-
sponsible Ministers can wipe out. The

popular member of Balfour's Cabinet,

CURIOUS ILL-TINIED SPEECH.
Lord Curzon's recent speech at Cal

say, has created so much feeling. was
not warmly welcomed here, and at the
time it was thought he had INDUCED

imagery suitable for the consumption

The Government has done every
thing in its power to belittle and keep
quiet its plans in regard to Tibet. In
deed, IL the war between Russia and
Japan had come earlier, 1t is likely that
the Tibet expedition would have been
postponed Though, apparently, Col
Onel Younghusband's mission is mainly
aimed at destroying alleged Russian in
fluences in Tibet, this is not regarded
as vital when compared with the para

the Russo-Japanese war.
1t is not regarded as likely that seri-
Gus international complications will

Russian Minister at Picking is not ex-

drawing some comparisons that will
scarcely be favorable to British policy

There is a good deal of talk
among Republicans in this part of

the delegates from this, the second,
congressional district, to the nation
al convention of the party ought to
be chosen from Windsor county,
first, because it is so strongly and
persistently Republican and, second,
because it has not been honored by

The Biggest Lynx.

Jesse Bently of Sunderland, per-
haps the best trapper in Vermont,
recently brought to the town clerks
office in that town two large lynx,
and received the bounty of SIS each.
One of them measured four feet 10
inches in length. This is believed
to be the largest lynx ever captured
in Vermont.
A lynx was brought into North
field, which was killed by Alvin
Smith and John w. Getty near the
VIM. Plastridgc farm. 1t measured
tour feet from tip to tip, but was
not very fat. Smith and Getty saw
the animal in the road. They
jumped off their sled and armed
with sled stakes chased the wildcat
until they cornered it, and then bat.
