Attack Is Against the

New complications between Great Brit.
the attack on the British consul and
vice consul at Warsaw Saturday night.
Coming on the heels of the placards
posted by Assistant Police Chief
Roudeneff at Moscow charging Great
Britain with melting the revolution in
Russia, the Warsaw incident is likely to
arouse an outburst in Great Britain
which may again strain relations be-
tween the two countries. Beyond the
fact of the attack at Warsaw, resulting
in the wounding of the British vice con-
sui, who is now in a hospital, the Brit
ish embassy here has no details of the
affair, but Sir Charles Hardinge, the
British ambassador, has already deliv-
cred note to Foreign Minister Lans-
dorf asking for an immediate investiga-
ton and explanation, reserving any
claims which may be hereafter made,
and at the same time asking for the pro-
lection Of British consuls thruout the
empire. By the first train he has also
dispatched Major Napier, the British
military attache, to Warsaw to secure
a full report on the circumstances.

RUSSIANS ADMIT FAILURE
SakharoR Reports that Thanking Move

st. Petersburg, Jan. 30.-Instead Of
confirmation of Saturday night 8 report
that General Kuropatkin had broken

day Lieutenant General Sekharoff's Of
fetal admission that the Russians had
been compelled to retire from San-de-

and that it, was decided upon not only
to divert attention from Russia g do

satisfied to enter into peace negotia'

It is also significant that dispatches
from Russian correspondents at the

Justice Holmes discussed at length

BOOTS A LUXURY IN CHINA
Common People Only Wear Them
When It Rains-Are Designed
for Aristocrats Only.

The common people in China
wear boots only when it rains.
The rest of the time the use of mod
ern footwear is confined to off
Gals, soldiers, sailors and sery-
ants.
The cOmmOnest form of foot
covering is the shoe of the peculiar
shape familiar to all, but the
coolies have to content themselves
with sandals of straw or go bare
foot.
Shoes for women are made at
home, and only in Shanghai are
they ever exposed for sale in the
shops. OF late years there has
been a large sale of rubber shoes
patterned after the Chinese
shapes, but of occidental manufac-
ture, and these are growing in
favor as wet weather shoes among
all classes. These shoes are made
both in Germany and the United
States and are now to be found on
sale at all of the treaty ports,
though they have not yet been
largely sold in the interior.
The Manchus wear shoes
perched upon small stills, and in
the winter these are wadded with
sheepskin as a protection against
the cold.

Entombed Live Frogs.

In delving into the bowels of the
i earth the mining engineer often
encounters the unexpected, and
occasionally runs up against per-
picking realities stranger than fc-
tion.n
An astounding discovery was
made recently in the Nellie Blv
mine, nine miles south of Lords
burg, New Mexico, when at depth
of 100 feet below the surface, i'm
prisoned in apparently solid rock,
three living frogs were Olsen
tombed, two Of which were found
In the same small cavity, less in
size than persons head, while the
third was resurrected from SINH
lar cavity about three feet distant
from the first. A critical inspec-
ton failed to reveal and communi.
cation whatever existing between
these two living prisons, or with
the outside world.
On examination, these specimens
OF the genus rama were found to be
quite small, their bellies and under
parts of their legs. were white, and
their backs were a malachite green,
apparently to certain extent en-
crusted With carbonate of copper,
which mineral is constituent in
this oxidized portion of the vein.
Their eyes were sealed and from all
appearances devoid of sight. When
liberated from their living tomb, to
the great surprise of those present,
they possessed remarkable agility,
when taking into consideration the
probable indefinite period of their
confinement.

When her apartments were
searched no fewer than 1900
pipes were found, some of which
were handsomely colored.
Although for awhile she stoutly
protested her innocence, she at
last broke down and confessed
that she was addicted to the use
of tobacco, and suffered from a
form of kleptomania which led her
to steal every handsome pine
which she could make away with
without discovery.
She made no attempt to dispose
of her pipes for profit, but kept
them in cabinets in her home. Not
one of the pipes, she admitted. had
been paid for, but she declared
that in taking them she was only
obeying an irresistible impulse
and was not morally responsible
for her crimes.

Some very interesting facts con-
corning the three northwestern
states, Oregon, Washington and
Idaho, were brought to light by the
Lewis and Clark fair. In compar-
ing the resources and productions
of the three states we find that
Idaho is fast making strides to be
the leading state of the three. The
total value of farm products, for
Idaho. last year were $1S,051 OPS.
Idaho produced 1,107 ,497 tons of
hay; 134,1S0 bushel of fax seed;
81 1865, 224 worth Of fruit; $20,451,
933 worth Of precious metals; ~
100000 feet of lumber worth $780,
600; making a grand total for the
state of $40,624, 1872. In our irri-
gated districts, which cost $5,120,-
399, to construct the irrigation sys-
tenn, enough produce was raised in
one year to more than pay for the
cost of construction, namely So
440,962, which figures show that in
a few years, when the irrigation
projects that are now under way
are finished, they will place Idaho
in the lead of the other northwest
ern states.

with youth. The care of children in school
is of great Importance. 1t represents from
ten to twenty years of added life for
everyone. 1t represents a healthy, hearty
old age full of rational enjoyments, instead
of peevish, weak and complaining one
Proper eating is the first consideration.
In the matter of longevity, people will
always differ. Heredity is a factor of
prime influence. Some persons are
naturally strong, some naturally weak;
but as nearly all persons take from fifteen
to thirty years off their lives by over
indulgence, these added years are as much
within the reach of the weak as of the
strong. Alcohol, cold, fatigue, these are
the three forces which enable the microbe
to colonize. The avoidance of them
means many added years for all.
Such is the rational cure of old age,

CURE OF OLD A GE

windows, as is shown in the modern con-
sumptive sanatoriums, is sleeping in the
open air upon the verandas. Fresh air
is the constant vital need of the lungs
and the body. With fresh air must be
included sunlight The value of the sun
rays, in their misunderstanding stimula-
ton and energy, is great indeed. The red
corpuscles in Our blood represent Our
power to resist disease, and nothing in
creases them like sunlight.
w. PROPER ExERcIsE-Proper exer-
else means a sufficient daily exercise in
the open air and in the light of the sun
to keep the circulation of the blood nor
NAL in the different parts of the body.
Too much is as bad as too little; but
every man, however sedentary his oc-
cupation, should manage to get at least
half an hour of exercise. This will
suffice, will distribute his blood properly,
oxygenate it healthily, and keep his
various organs in normal activity.
V. HEALTHY OccUPATIoN-A1l per-
sons, whatever their age, should do a
certain amount of daily work Man is so
constituted that he cannot be happy
without accomplishing daily something
that is worth doing This is curious
fact, one that may be denied by idlers;
but no idler can keep healthy. Work
is necessity of happiness, and happiness
is a necessity to health. 1t is noticed
that when many men retire from business
they go to pieces. They should not
give up work entirely. They should not
abandon business until they have some
thing with which Interestingly to occupy
themselves daily.
vi. AVOIDANCE OF DISEASE Every
disease from which we suffer represents
a strain upon the system which takes an
appreciable amount of time from Our
vital period. 1t is astonishing how many
diseases that we incur are due to our
mode of life; how vastly proper mode
of life would make us immune to them
There are few if any microbes which the
system in its normal state cannot destroy,
whether by digestion in the stomach,
combustion in the lungs or destruction
in the blood. The microbe is always
with us. Seventy per cent of the healthy
persons examined in a recent inquiry
were found to have the pneumococci of
pneumonia in their mouths. The pneu-
monia was ever with them, potentially
1t waited an impaired and weakened
state of the system to obtain foothold
Let all persons remember that it is the
weakened state of the body. not the mi
crobe, that is the usual cause of disease
X -
This then is the cure of old age: a
rational, proper mode of life, which is not
only open to all, but will be adopted by
most men and women when they come to
