Bomb Throwing in Pekin.

At the Pekin Railway Station
Sunday, as train carrying one
of the four missions ordered
abroad to study foreign political
methods was leaving, a bomb
was exploded inside a private car,
killing four minor officials and
wounding over twenty other per-
sons.
The wounded include Prince
Thai Tche, who heads the most
important of the missions, and
WI Ting Fang, former Minister
to the United States, both of
whom received slight injuries.
The perpetrator of the outrage,
who was in the car, was blown
to pieces.
The affair has created a pro-
found sensation, and causes ap-
prehension regarding the safety
of the members of the court and
leading officials of the Govern
ment.
The Government offices and
railways are now strongly guard
ed.
In view of the sudden change
of front of the empress dowager
diplomats are led to think that
somehow she may be connected
with teh bomb outrage in the Pc
kin railway station-that her ag-
ents among the reactionaries may
have engineered the affair in ord
er to intimidate the reformers and
to strengthen the position of her
own party.
The personality of the Empress
An, as proved by her past deeds,
lends much plausibility to this be-
lief. She has demonstrated that
she is both astute in matters of
state and both cruel and cunning
in the execution of the schemes
on which she has once decided
for the furtherance of her pro-
| jects.

PACKERS PLEAD GUILTY.
-Four Officials Fined $4,000 and
Costs in Chicago.

Four indicted officials of the
Schwarzschild & Sulzberger company
packers, pleaded guilty Thursday to
the charge OF accepting railroad re-
bates. They were sentenced by Judge
J. Otis Humphrey of the United
States District court TO pay fines ag-
gregating S25,OOO
This victory of the government in
the cases against the packers came
as total surprise TO every one ex-
cept the attorneys for the defense
and for the government, who, accord
ing to reports, had agreed upon the
action to be taken and the punish
ment to be inflicted.
The precariou health of Vice-Presi-
dent We'll of the company was given
as the reason for the plea of guilty
The defendants and their fines were
as follows:
Samuel We'll, vice-president OF the
Schwarzschild & Sulzberger company
Office and residence in New York:
fined $4,000 and costs.
Beth S. Cusey. traffic manager,
Chicago; fined $4,000 and costs.
Vance d. Skipworth. traffic manag-
er, New York; fined $4,000 and costs.
Chess E. Todd, traffic manager,
Kansas City; fined $4,000 and costs
The defendants were ordered COM
mitted to jail until the fines were
paid, but they were held in the ante
room OF the federal court for half an
hour, when certified check, signed
by Max Sulzberger, was produced.
The four defendants were then re-
leased and hurried away, refusing to
talk.

Defending Sherrick.

The Plymouth Democrat defends
State Auditor Sherrick and abuses
Governor Hanly. We did not ex-
pect that Editor Metsker would OPEN
ly ally himself with the grafters,
drunkards and gamblers of Indiana.
The speech of Governor Hanly
published in the Daily Tribune We'd
nesday is a complete reply to Nets
ker's article and every decent Demo
cratic paper in Indiana is defending
the governor, therefore Editor Nets
ker will probably try to climb into
the band wagon this week. but the
people now know where the editor
OF the Democrat really stands.

People Will Do the Rest.

A law designating the safest
banks in the State as depositaries for
public funds, fixing the amounts that
may be safely deposited therein,
specifying the rate of interest to be
earned and requiring every cent of
money so earneo on public funds to
be turned into the public treasury. is
clearly needed in Indiana, and the
next legislature should enact it. Gov

No Locks for Insane.

The asylum for incurable insane
at South Bartonville, Ill is now
without locks and bars, the last one
having been removed by Supt Cellar.
This is in accordance with step
long in contemplation by DR.. Zeller,
he having become convinced that
more can be accomplished by kind
ness than by forcible restraint. The
inmates now enjoy large personal
liberty and the effect has been appar-
ent in = noticeable improvement in
their conduct.

Bonaparte Will Succeed Moody

Attorney General Moody Will
resign from the Cabinet early
next spring and Secretary of the
Navy Charles J. Bonaparte will
then be transferred to the De-
partment of Justice as Attorney
General.
When Bonaparte entered the
Cabinet July 1 it was with the
definite understanding that he
would only remain as Secretary
of the Navy for a period not ex-
ceeding one year, and that he
would then be transferred to the
Department of Justice.
Mr.. Moody, it is said, has long
been anxious to leave the Cabinet
and resume the practice of law in
Massachusetts. 1t is known that
he has had an understanding with
the President that he will resign
next spring.

Chance for Carpenters.

There is a chance for Indiana
carpenters to get work at good
wages on the Isthmus of Panama.
The United States Government is
seeking the services of carpenters
who are willing to go to the Pan
anna Canal district and build
quarters for workmen. The Gov
ernment offers So cents an hour
for regular wrok, and time and a
half for overtime. Transportation
will be free from New York,
where the men are to report, and
wages will begin from the time
of reporting for duty in New
York.

blitzel celebrated their golden

miles northwest of LaPaz, where
they have resided nearly 40
years. An elaborate dinner was
served at l o'clock to about rs
friends and relatives. A very
enjoyable time was had. They

beautiful presents. Mr.. Haw-
blitzel is one of the founders of

An unexplainable Attitude.

Those newspapers of the democrat
ic party which are defending Sherrick
as against Governor Haiiiy are as
suming an attitude that is unexplain-
able. If they were defending par
tisan friend it could be UNDERSTOOD,
but in defending a defaulter of the
opposite party they are inconsistent
as well as unpatriotic when they as
sault the governor, and accuse him OF

Goes Back on Christianity.

A letter from Miss Grace
Stephens the Methodist mission
ary to Madras, India, states that
Scoboonagam, the only native of
the high caste to ever embrace
Christianity, has renounced it
and gone back to his native faith.
1t is feared that this will be a
great blow to the Christian work

THE ESOTERIC WORK.
A Suggestion That II WORTHY Of Con-
sideratfon.
[special Correspondence.I

eAN<f<sElODs
Especial Correspondence.
There is urgent need Of greater ae-
curacy and uniformity in imparting
the unwritten or esoteric work Of the
Order. ! speak more particularly Of
New York state when | say that too
little attention is given TO this ex-
ceedingly important matter, and the
result is, it may be too truly said, that
no two county deputies or grange mas
tiers give the unwritten work precisely
alike. This should not be so and need
not. / am aware that there are states
New Hampshire, for instance where
much attention is paid to exact and
correct instruction in this feature of
degree work, but / am quite as sure
that there are not two other states in
the Union that can justly bear COM
parison as states with New Hamp-
shire in this respect.
There is no good reason why the Sc
cret work of the Order should not be
exemplifed before candidates in as
precise, accurate, complete and posi-
tive manner as is the corresponding
work in the Masonic lodge I sey pos
tive because too many masters do not
know when they are correctly giving
the work, as they have no positive
knowledge of its correctness. How
can they impart it correctly to the can.
didate?
First of all, some one person in each
state grange should be a recognized
authority on the unwritten work. This
person cannot be said to be an author
ity on the work until he has himself
been instructed in it by the one supreme
authority, the official who has IN his
possession tie one book containing the
secret work Of the Order When so
instructed he should be authorized to
visit each county in the state and sum-
mon together the county deputies, Po-
mona and subordinate grange masters
and other officials perhaps and impart
to them the instruction he has received
literally, correctly, exactly and thor
oughly. SO carefully should this be
done that there should be no doubt in
his mind when he leaves the confer
ence with the grange officers as to the
ability of each grange master to give
the work correctly to his own grange.
All questions arising as to this feature
of the degree work at any time or
anywhere should be referred to the
one man who is qualified to speak
with authority on the subject Then
shall we see accuracy and certainty
take the place of inaccuracy and I'M
certainty in this very important mat
ter. OBSERVER.

How to Make Egg Barley.

Egg barley is a dainty soup paste
which is an agreeable change from
noodles, macaroni, spaghetti and sim
liar compounds. To make it prepare as
for noodles, save that third more
-four is to be kneaded into the dough.
This must be SO firm that it can be
grated on large CRATER or chopped
into the tiniest of kernels with chop
ping knife. These are then spread in
a tin plate and allowed to become a
light golden tint in the oven. Strain
the soup and put over the fire. When
it boils put in the egg barley and let it
remain till It begins to float on top.

A FARMERS ORGANIZATION.
The Grange should Confne It's Mem
bership to AgricuIfurists.


bershiD to AgricuIfurists.
There is a growing sentiment among
grangers, says the New York Farmer,
that the grange should confne its mem
bership to farmers. OF course law
yers, clergymen, physicians, carpen-
tiers, merchants, politicians, black
smiths and mechanics might '.enliven''
the grange, but it would require but a
moment of reflection to convince the
farmers that the addition of all these
outside elements to the membership of
a farmers organization would mean
the Introduction of men whose inter
ests instead of being identical with
those of the farmers. are really. opposed
to them.
The grange needs something more
than elements to ''enliven, it. There
is serious side to the grange, and that
side first of all must be considered
1t is proposition hardly open to doubt
or to dispute that a farmers organ
ization should be made up of farmers
knowing what they need and ready at
all times to cast their influence to OBJ
tain what they need and must have to
better their condition Suppose a
grange to have majority of nonfarm-
er members. Conditions arise that
make it necessary or desirable that the
grange shall make its wishes known
on an important matter This grange,
to the surprise of other oranges, votes
to oppose the interests and the plain
needs of the farmers. The result Is
that the grange as body is made to
appear divided in sentiment, and the
interests hostile to the farmers can
use the seeming division Of the farmers
to defeat them How long could
grange of that kind lasts How long
should it last?
If farmers really desire to have nom
farmer members in the oranges, would
it not be possible to arrange to admit
such members as nonvoting members?
1t would seem that all officers of
oranges should be farmers and that
only farmers should vote for measures
Of Importance to farmers only Cam
not the membership question be so ar
ranged that nonfarmers may be ad-
mitted practically as honorary mem
bers, enjoying all the social cheer, the
moral lift and the mental activity of
the grange, but leaving all the voting
on questions Of Importance to the
farmer members? Changers every
where max well ponder this point.
