Latter Proposes and Is Accepted
While He Is Going for License
for Employer.

Butler, Pa-Christian Otto, of Butler
township, the other day made informa-
ton against Harvey H. Hayes for as
sault and battery and for kidnapping
three children of Mrs. Otto's, the chill
dren's name being Hagen.
During last winter Mrs. Hagen was
employed by Hayes as hOusekeeper at
his farm, her three children being with
her Later Mrs. Hagen and Hayes de-
cided to marry. Hayes is nearly so, and
the woman SO. Hayes, being busy on
the day fixed for the wedding, sent Otto,
whom he had engaged as farm hand a
short time before, to town with Mrs.
Hagen to get the license and bring out
a minister. On the way to town, Otto,
who is 80. won the widow, and when
they reached the courthouse they took
out a license to wed. They stopped at
the home of the minister and were mar
ried
They returned to the Hayes home
The farmer did not take serious offense
over the affair, and he and the Ottos
lived in peace until the other day, when
Hayes began loading his personal be-
longings on wagon, preparatory tC
moving away.
Otto looked on without objection un
til Hayes picked up the three Hagen
children and put them on the wagon
Then, it is alleged, there was fight
Otto was knocked down, and Hayes
drove away with the children, leaving
their mother and Otto together.

The Ccmina Peace Conference.

AS the time for the meeting Of the
Peace ENJOYS at Kittery approaches it
becomes more and more evident that
Russia is making a strong play for
position. Just now the world is wit
Messing one of the finest exhibitions of
diplomatic fencing in its history. Mr..
Witte on the eve of his departure for
America gave out an interview in
which he took a somewhat respondent
view of the situation. He asserted that
Russia would make no sacrifice unbe-
coming to her national dignity, and in
timated that his duty would consist
chiefly in ascertaining the Japanese
terms, and making them known to the
Car. In fact his expressions were OIL
such a character as to arouse gen.
eral suspicion both in this country and
abroad, that Russia in spite of her
crushing military and naval reverses is
not vet prepared to enter In good faith
upon peace negotiations. This view of
peror Nicholas message to the Oren-
bourg clergy, asserting in the strongest
terms his fixed purpose not to conclude
a peace dishonorable to Russia or un-
worthy of her greatness. Thus far all
the utterances of the japanese ENJOYS
have been of a conciliatory character.
They indicate a disposition to be mod
crate in their demands. AT the same
time they make it clear that the terms
they will propose have been definitely
fixed by the Mikado, and his council of
State, and that they include the pay
ment of war indemnity by Russia.
This demand has been anticipated by
all the great nations, and is conceded to
be just. II is not believed that Russia
will make the concession of it an in
superable obstacle to the conclusion of
peace. Indeed it is believed that she
will be more disposed 10 draw the line
at demands-if such are made-that
will in any way impair the present
territorial integrity of the Russian En-
pire The situation is one that is
likely to call for prolonged consider
ation-and it is by no means certain
that the outcome will be a treaty of
peace. Meanwhile the whole world
will anxiously await the outcome of the
negotiations i'm the hone that they will
put an end to the present terrible war,
and insure amicable relations between
the two warning nations for years to
come.

Over a Million Immigrants.

For the first time i'll the history of
this country over 1,000,09O immigrants
have landed on it's shores in a single
year The million mark as was antici-
pated, was passed during the fiscal year
ending with June 81, and the figures
just made public by the department of
commerce and labor give some inter-
csting comparisons with earlier years.
Statistics that have been carefully KEEP.
since 1870 indicate that du,.ng IS years
over 22,OO0,O0O of immigrants have
helped to swell the national population,
which constitutes an annual average of
about 250000. The preserved figures
show. however that there has been no
uniform average i'm immigration, but.
on the contrary, vast :iIctuations from
United States has always been in
fiuenced more by special circumstances
and impellnS reasons operative on the
other side of the ocean than from III.
induo emcnts or attractions on this side.
OF the 22,OO0eOO of foreigners seeking
citizenship that have been admitted
during the Iast s. years, more than
half. or about 12.5O0,0 have come from
Great Britain and Germany-7,2S6 900
from the former and 5,1S7. 900 from the
latter-and Scandinavia and the Meth
crlands have contributed ] $4,000 mo-a,
50 that by far the larger percentage Of
immigration, or about 1876, 900 out of a
total of 22.OOO, 900 has come from North
ern Europe. During recent years, how
ever. and especially during 1904 and 1905,
the preponderance of Immigration has
been from Southern Europe and from
Russia. During the fiscal year just
closed the immigration from Austria
POI 900 and from the Russian Empire
came $4,000 Great Britain sent 137. 900
and the German Empire dropped to 40
OO0. Scandinavia. however. embracing
Norway. Sweden and Denmark. sent
$4,000 during the last year. In spite of
restrictive laws there we're more than
1000 immigrants from China and more
than 10000 from Japan who gaineI
recognized admission to the country.
Doubtless there were many other thou
sands Of Asiatics that came in sur
reptitiously across either the Canadian
or the Mexican border.
New York during the past year MAIN
tained its preponderant lead as an i'm
migration port. registering a total Of
7sS.239 entries. Baltimore and Boston
are pretty nearly evenly balanced,
there having landed at Baltimore g.

sions were distributed ar,ong a large
