Dependency of China.

Tibet has for centuries been a dependency
of China, like Mongolia, Manchuria and
Turkestan, and sent annual tribute to the
emperor at Picking until 1895 The Chinese
government, however. has not interfered
with it's local affairs. which have been
controlled from time immemoriaI by an &C.
ciesiastfcal government. The chief author
ity has been the dalai lama, or high priest
of the Buddhists, who has been assisted
by bishops, monks and priests. scattered
through the territory among the six or
seven million inhabitants, who are still
Buddhists.
The Chinese have had so many other
matters of greater Importance to occupy
their attention that they have never called
the grand lama to account for his neglect
to send the annual tribute, but they were
very much alarmed when, in 1900. they
learned that the Russian government was
taking the same steps to occupy Tibet that
had been successful in Manchuria Hence
when the British proposed to send an ex-
petition under Colonel Younghusband to
Lhassa, the Chinese government willingly
gave it's consent, and everything that has
been done by the British there has received
the formal approval of the imperial author.

Fort Arthur's Fearful Loss.

When the siege began it was reported
from various sources that General Stoessei

General Nogi reports that he captured at
Port Arthur %. oeo comba tants, exclusive OF
some $1,000 or 10000 others, sick and
wounded-39. 600 in ALL So that, IL the origi-
nal estimates of Stoessers force were cor
rect, he lost only 5000 or 1900 by wounds
and disease. For there is no record of
his having been reinforced.

1t would cost 10000 men to capture Port
Arthur. 1t is calculated that in such as
saults three of the assailants fell for every
one defender. II that ratio had held good
Nogi would have found only 5000 men in
the captured fortress.

rom the Philadelphia Ledger.


1t Is French engineer who seriously an
hounces his invention of suit of cleo
trio clothing, with fine wire woven in the
goods and storage battery. The site of
this battery Is not noted, but probably the
pistol pocket would do. By means Of this
invention he affirms that the body can be
kept at comfortable temperature in the
coolest weather. BY the pressing of q
button the current may be shut off as
the wearer enters room and turned on
again as he enters a Philadelphia trolley
car. There is no apparent reason why we
should stop with this. Little IL any more
scurrent would be needed to produce a
hsht such as persons on the vaudeville
stage display. Thus every pedestrian at
night would become walking lamppost,
with electric force enough to shock an in
ebrlate who might wish to cling to him.
IL would be practicable, too for an Amer
lean inventor to connect the current with
roller skates, thus allowing every man To
he his own trolley car. In summer. also.
the electric fan could be run to keen

telegraph scheme could be added to enable
persons to communicate with one another

Chinese and British in Accord.

A native newspaper at Picking, which IL
subsidized by the German legation, has
been trying to frighten the Chinese foreign
Office so that it will not ratfy the treaty
between Great Britain and the Tiberans.
This paper has ANNOUNCER that In case the
treaty Is ratified France will make similar
demands in the province of Yunnan and
Japan in the province of Fokieu. Both
Russian and German influences are said to
be at work to persuade the grand lama to
return to Lhassa and assert his authority.
But there seems to be a perfect under
standing between the British and the Chi
nese, and it Is not believed that the Ger
mans or Russians win be able to disturb 1t.
The British government has given China
positive assurances. that it has no inten-
ton to annex or occupy Tibet. but that for
the protection of China, as we'll as India,
from the aggressive policy of Russia, it
has compelled the Tibetan authorities to
open that country to commerce and COM
munication with the world.
British Treaty With Tibet.
The treaty, which was executed Septem-
Der Z last, recognizes the suzerainty of the
Chinese government. 1t stipulates, how
ever, that without the consent of Great
Britain no Tibetan territory shall be sold,
leased or mortgaged to any foreign power:
nor shall any foreign power be permitted
to concern itself with the government; nor
snail any Foreigners pe employed In TlDetan
affairs; nor shall they be permitted to con-
struct roads, teiegraphs or open mines
without the consent of the British authori-
ties in India.
England demands an indemnity of 81. 5OO-
600 from Tibet to pay the expense of the
expedition, and the treaty provides that the
British shall occupy the valley Of Chumbi,
which commands the approach to Lhssa,
until that amount Is paid.
The United States has taken no active
interest in the Tibetan question, but the
Secretary of State in Washington and the
American ambassador in London have re-
ceived both formal and Informal assurances
that the British government does not intend
to impair the integrity of China

Inc Qalaf lama Is a voluntary Fugitive

dition approached Lhassa he fed. Since
then, on September 10 last, decree was
proclaimed by the Emperor of China de-
posing him and transferring his authority

second ecclesiastical dignitary at Tibet
The grand lama when last heard from
was guest of the Buddhist monastery at
Urga, Mongolia.
Urga Is the chief city of northern Mon
golia. and one of the principal stations on
the ancient caravan road between Picking
and Nijui-Novgorod, Russia which has
been Travelled for thousands of years like
the road between Damascus and Cairo
Urga is quite near to Lake BaikaI and the
Siberian railway, so that the dalai lama
can communicate with the Russian author
files without much trouble He is supposed
to have been in their pay; at least, he ac-
cepted large sums of money and several
camel loads of costly gifts, In return for
which he bestowed upon the caar the title
of Protector of the Holy Church and the
Priests of Sakya-Murie." In addition to
this honor. the dalai lama, acting for the
government, granted permission for the
Russians to build a railway through the
interior Of Tibet and to fortify and protect
it with garrisons Of soldiers, just as was
done In Manchuria.
This arrangement was entered into with
out the knowledge OF the Chinese govern

seen enemy of his own tribe and which
reverberates through the woods often
with sufficient force to carry the sound
for as much as half to three-quarters
OF mile. If we listen for an instant
when we hear one of these challenges
sent forth we may hear 1t answered
from some distant point so family that
we cannot be certain that 1t is not an
echo. Some other male has heard the
challenge and, detecting the self salts

may be fairly certain that they are
Fastening toward each other, each with
the intention of annihilating his foe or
at least teaching him a lesson.
Gray squirrels, unlike most Of the
rodents, do not hibernate In the winter
time, but are abroad and very active
during most of the season. Their nests
are then in hollow trees, but they usu-
ally leave these retreats in March and
build airier and less vermn infested

twigs. If you can watch gray SPUR
rel gathering nuts in the fall you will
see him take Il nut in his cheek pouch
and hop along the ground testing 1t
every few yards with his front feet.
When he has found spot entirely to
his liking he will scoop out q shallow
hole and, placing the nut in it, will
cover it up with the loose earth. This
he will stamp down aud restore to its
former condition by scraping the loose
leaves and small stones over ii.
This performance be repeats again
and again in that and other localities

how unerringly he can go to his vari-

happens, they may all be covered with
