RUSSIANS AND JAPS CLASP HANDS

as comrades rather than as enemies,
During the luncheon President
Roosevelt proposed notable toast, in
which he expressed the earliest hope
and prayer in the interest not only OF
these two great powers, but Of all CIV
ilized mankind, that just and lasting
peace may speedily be concluded be-
tween them"
The occasion was impressive. It
was attended not only by pomp and
ceremony, but by simplicity and
frankness characteristic Of the presi.
dent and people Of America.
Due honor was paid the distin-
guished guests of the president and
of the country, and they received all
dignity to which their exalted rank
entitled them.

societies in the Chinese theatre in
Doyer street Sunday night three
Cinnamon were killed, two others

tons in the vicinity. According to a
report made by the police, the Hip
Sing Tong started the trouble and de-
liberately selected the Chinese theatre

Oakland, Cal.-Percy Pembroke,
one of trio of boys who are under
arrest charged with the murder of T.
w. Cook, has made full confession.
In his cell the 16-year-old boy broke
down and told Sheriff Barnet the full
story of the crime.
Three boys, all under II years of
age, deliberately planned to hold up
their friend and acquaintance, Thorn
as W. Cook. They laid in wait for
him armed with bludgeons of lead
pipe.
When Cook appeared, Pembroke de-
clares, Baker stepped behind him
and dealt him stunning blow with
the pipe. Cook fell, and Pembroke
ran from the scene of the crime, leav-
ing his companions, John Sneider and
George Baker, to complete the rob-
berry. Pembroke exonerates Crow
hurst, another of the suspects.

Reciprocity with Cuba certainly is
working all right-for Cuba. Under
the arrangement Cuba is buying less
and selling more in the United States
than before Her own government fig
llres show that during the first six
months of 1904, while her exports to
this country increased 4I per cent, her
imports from here gained only l3 per
cent. Other countries which have no
reciprocity with the little island re-
public seem to have had much the bet
ter of it. For instance, while her eI-
ports to Great Britain, Spain and Ger
many for the period mentioned in
creased 20. 90 and l7 per cent respec-
lively. the gains in imports from those
nations were 80, p and 40 per cent.
Somehow that does not appear to be
reciprocity which reciprocates Troy
TinTes.

THE PRESS AND THE GRANGE
Publicity of Grange Affairs Some
thing to BE Desired.

Mrs. Sarah G. Baird, master of the
Minnesota state grange, in her annual
address to that body recently had this
word to say concerning the newspapers
and the hel9 they can give the grange:
1t is gratifying to note the attitude
of the press of the country toward the
grange us compared with only few
short years ago. All papers are Will
nag and many are seeking to print
grange items and reports, and we con-
rass we are surprised at the unwilling
ness of our members to help themselves
through this available and most fruit
full medium. Many inquiries have
come to me during the year: What
has become of the grange department?
We miss it so much. 1t ought to have
been continued" How can we expect
10 acquaint the public with the work
Of the Order except we use the press,
except we pattern after successful
business men in other callings and
place our goods before the people? We
