The JAPANESE TERMS.

Japan's basic conditions for a treaty
OF peace call for an indemnity cover
ing the cost of the war to her. and
the. cession of the island of Sakhalin.
the evacuation of Manchuria, the retro
cession to China of Russia concessions
in the Manchuria peninsula, the recog-
milton Of Japan's protectorate over
Korea, and the surrender OF the Chi
nese Eastern railway connecting Har-
bin on the main line the trans
Siberian railroad with Port Arthur.
The main line OF road to Vladivostok
IS left to Russian control. Added to
these conditions. is the more vital one
OF a Limitation on Russian naval
strength in Asiatic waters with view
TO preventing a recurrence Of war be-
tween the two powers, and to giving
Japan permanent control of the Asia
tic waters so far as naval preponder-
ance can do if.
Naturally, the Russians consider the
terms harsh and impossible. Their in
structions will not permit the cession
Of territory nor the payment of indem-
nifty: but the Russians are discussing
things in a preliminary way and are
smart enough to know that what they
want and what they will have to ac-
cept are different matters. The Japa-
nese are in position TO enforce de-
mands: and if they are not conceded
now. to push the war with the GER
tainty that every dollar expended, every
life lost viii have to be repaid with
compound interest. Russia may talk
about her ability to continue the war
until the terms suit her. but the world
knows. the French bankers who have
financed Russia know, that the ulti-
mate end could only be heavier in
demnity and more bitter humiliation
than now confronts the car.

SLAUGHTER OF EGRETs.

A man was killed in Florida the other
day by a fellow whom he was trying
10 prevent from killing egrets. The
dead man was Guy NJ. Bradley, one
OF the wardens of the National Asso-
citation of Audubon societies. 1t is
claimed that he was murdered by the
'egret hunter. The man who killed him
sets up a plea of self defense. The
courts viii thresh the true from the
false later. But it is not hard to fix
the real responsibility for the death of
Bradley.
Thoughtless women who like to wear
wings taken from dead birds are re-
sponsible. If there had not been a
ready sale for egret wings the hunter
would not have been after them and
the dispute with Bradley could not have
arisen. So, in the final analysis, the
blame must rest with the women. It
seems a harsh thing to say, but it is
the truth, and the truth cannot be
brought home too sharply to the often
ders. 1t is too much to hope that the
in a discontinuance of the wing trim
med hat, but it should help.
The slaughter of the egret is so cruel,
so needless so altogether out of har-
mony with ordinary laws of humanity
that it seems strange that more efforts
to stop it have not been made. The
egret is Il perfectly harmless bird that
is found in southern Florida. Not long
ago there were many of them, but their
use in the trimming of women's hats
became 80 general that the bird has
all but been exterminated. How nearly
this is true may be gathered from the
fact that egret plumes sell for $50 an
ounce in New York. To get the pIumes
it is necessary to kill the birds, and
they are killed only for their plumes

CHEF MooRE's DEFENSE.

According to his own statement Chief
Moore of the weather bureau has not
committed any awful crimes against
good government. He seems to have
Increased the pay of laborers on gov
eminent work in the Blue Ridge noun
tains from so to 20 cents a day to
SI.5O a day. The pay of stone Tnssons
was fixed at 50 a day and of carpen-
tcrs at $3.50 "A day. IN salt Lake, any
stone mason would boot at the idea
o. working for SO a day and any car
penter would think you were crazy if
you asked him to work eight hours for
$50.
Viewed from the western wage stan
dard Chief Moore has done nothing
wrong in the wage matter. Mr.. Moore
does not pay any attention TO the more
serious charge that he and his assis-
tsnts have been maintaining a luxuri-
Gus mountain summer resort, where
they enjoyed the cool breezes at the
expense Of the government and return
ed very little compensation therefor in
the form OF work. Perhaps Mr.. Moore
considered this charge unworthy of his
attention. but his defense is incomplete
without some reference to st.
Mr.. Moore concludes his statement
with:

THE LUTHERANS WILL
BUY A PARSONAGE
An Effort Now Being Made to Raise
Necessary Funds.-Church in
Good Condition.

The members OF Trinity Lutheran
church are now making an effort to
raise sufficient funds to purchase a
parsonage in Reynoldsville. The local
membership of this congregation is
comparatively small and the contem-
plated purchase of parsonage is a
heavy undertaking for them, but by
their combined efforts and whatever
the public in general may extend to
them, they have good prospects of
success.
There is possibly no church in Reyn.
oldsville more deserving of help and
support from the people than the
Trinity Lutheran. The Reynoldsyille
charge is composed of three congrega-
tions, Reynodsville, Emerickville and
Chestnut Grove, and to keep in close
touch with the people and preach
regularly at some, and frequently at all,
points, requires long and ceaseless work
on the part of the pastor. That the
present pastor, Rev. j. w. Myers, has
been doing this successfully is apparent
by the gratifying growth of both church
and Sunday schools and the revived
interest OF the old members of the con.
gregations. The church has never
had minister more earnest in his
labor, or more eloquent in the pulpit,
nor one who has stood higher in the
estimation of the public than its present
incumbent.
Under these favorable conditions the
appeal for money from members and
the public should meet with a prompt
response.

MRS. ELLEN EVANS
Died at Her Home on East Main Street
Friday Morning.

Mrs. Ellen Evans, widow of George
Evans, died at her late home on East
Main street, Reynodsville, Pa, on
Friday morning at 500 o'clock, August
IL, 1905, after lingering illness of
months. She was born in Warsaw
township, Jefferson county, Pa, Feb
ruary 26, 1852. She was the daughter
Of Mr. and Mrs. Edwin Bullers and was
married September Is, 1869. She was
the mother of eight children, seven Of

and three daughters. She, with her
husband, came to Reynoldsville about
thlrty-one years ago. Her husband
died October %, 1891, and as a mother
she bravely fought the battle of life and
always kept home for her children.
She made profession of religion when
about fourteen years old and has since
endeavored to live for her master and
to do his will. She was a faithful
member of the Reynoldsville Baptist
church and died trusting in Jesus as
her Savior and Lord. She was con-
scious that the time of her departure
from earth drew near and was resigned
to the Masters will Funeral services
were held at her late residence on Sun
day, August 13, at $50 p. m. by her
pastor, Rev. DR.. A. j. Meek. The
services were largely attended. Many
neighbors and friends followed her
remains to the Baptist cemetery where
she was laid to rest at the side of loved
ones who had gone before. Besides her
children she is survived by her aged
father, six brothers and two sisters, her
mother having died March 3, 1892

highly respected by all whom she met.
The family have the sympathy of
large circle of friends in their sorrow.

An Early Benediction,

For several weeks past the Baptist
congregation 10 this place has been
greatly Inconvenience at their even
ing services by the trouble with the
electric lights. Sunday evening there
was no electric light and they had but
two gas jets at the sides of the organ to
illuminate their church. Semi-dark-
ness may add little to the solemnity
of religious service, but it is almost
impossible to preach effectively when
the minister and his audience car
scarcely see each other. After the
usual opening services of singing and
prayer the pastor, DR.. Meek, quietly
but firmly remarking that he would
borrow no more lamps and preach no
more sermons in the dark, pronounced
the benediction.
