ID CURB CHINA THE STATE DEPARTMENT RE- VEAlS ITS PLANS TO PRO.
 TEcT AMERICANS. Department Officials Admit They Fear an Outbreak, Though Mis-.
 
 sionaries Are Safe.

1 Washington, Feb. 2S.-Reports from various parts of China are so conflicting that the state department vas forced to admit today that it has been unintentionally wrong in it's es- timatfon of conditions there several tines during the last two months. It is, however, of the opinion that there is great danger of a general up- rising, and it was said emphaticalfy today that it would be criminal on the part of the United States if it were not ready at this time to defend he lives of Americans in that country. It was repeated that he surplusage of troops in the Philippines was neces- sary: that the preparations made by the navy were imperative and that nothing less than this could be done
 At the same time it was declared that there was no news substantial ing the alarm ng reports of MT. Rod gers yesterday of attacks on Ameri- can missions. The gunboat Quiros will join the Cano at Nanchang, the location of the attack upon the Eng fish missionaries.
 Regret Previous Alarm.
 The department long ago was alarmed at the first news of a threat ened outbreak, general in it's charac ter, and particularly against Ameri- cans. However, when the fears of the officials were put into print by the newspapers they felt that the mat ter had been overdone on their part and hastened to alleviate any appre- hension which might have been caus- ed.
 Now the department is again cer- tain that there is great cause for anx- iety and that the United States should omit no precaution fer the safety of her citizens doing business or mis- sion work in China
 A dispatch received at the Oh 'nese legation from the viceroy of Canton says that the boycott movement there has disappeared and that there has rot been a meeting of the Chinese merchants on this subject for some time. Everything is quiet, it is said, and fore 'gners have nothing to fear. Members of the legation laugh at the idea of any general uprising in their country They point out that the cen tral government is firmly seated and holds a tight rein upon the people, and a second Boxer rebellion is an impossibil ty.

POLICE COURT OPENS EARLIER

Five culprits were araigned before Judge Toney in the police court this morning, and none were discharged, a rather unusual occurrence, but each paid $5 into the city treasury. The court opened at 7:30, half an hour earlier than it has during the winter months, and will continue to open at this time throughout the summer.

Death has threatened his own person
many times. In Italy, in 1903, man
named Goertz was apprehended in time
to spoil a plot of assassination. An
anarchist obtained admission to a state
reception at the palace at Tsarskoe-
Selo in the uniform of a superior officer
of the gendarmerie and was discovered
with bombs in his pockets, just in time.
girl student, Mile. Merezhevsky, was
frustrated in an attempt to kill him at
the spring review in 1904.
When, last January, with his court
the Car was ending the ceremony of
blessing the water of the river Neva,
shrapnel from battery which was
firing a salute exploded near the royal
pavilion, killing one man and wound
ing others.
He completed the Trans Siberian
Railway, as his father desired, in order
to consolidate Russian power In Asia
and extend Russian trade, industry and
commerce But this railway was one
of the causes that brought about the
unlucky war with Japan.

denis judgment is that the average eats from two
to three times much he needs ought.
With all respect to Professor Chittenden, however
good many people will still insist that the average man
does not eat much. The great majority of people
are compelled to live frugay and they cannot afford to
eat great deal than they need. They consider
themselves fortunate to be able to satisfy their
tite, and few of them inclined to food down
their threats when appetite proclams itself satisfied
Appetite is natures measure Of what is suhciency
Of food and there very few Of who would not
go about hungry if lessened daily consumption
Of food by one-half two thirds.
Alimentary troubles come, it Is reasonably safe to
say from the quality rather than the quantity Of food

The most notable feature of the lat
est census bulletin relating to illiteracy
that there are fewer illiterates among
the children of foreign-born parents
than among those of the natives. This
10 variously accounted for, but the
chief reason for 1t appears to be based
the foreign-born children live in cities,
where the educational opportunities
are better than in the country. In
the country the illiteracy among chill
dren is eighty-nlne per thousand; in
cities of over $4,000 inhabitants it is
only ten per thousand. This Is a rath-
or remarkable showing.

In the familiar stories Of the unarm.

mer who trifles with the situation.
There is a sort of poetic justice, there
fore, in the following incident reported
by the New York Press. A group Of
loungers were discussing the recent es-
cape of a lion at one of the summer
parks Just outside of Newark, and one
expressed his belief that it must have
been something of scare.
"Scarew echoed a man connected
with the park. II should say it was
scare. The people made such din
was afraid the poor old fellow would
die of fright before we could get him
back to his cage.
1--WE found him hiding behind a
tree, and it was ten minutes before
we could induce him to face that yell
ing mob and get back to where he
knew he was safe. He is the gentlest
old fellow in the world, and never
would have wandered out had he not
been frightened by the man who fell
into the cage from the cycle whlrl
above. or course that upset him, and
when he saw the door open he nat
urally ran out
"Then the people made such a nose
that his one idea was to flee. The
more he ran the more they yelled, and
when we did get him back 1t was
hours before he stopped trembling.
"It was a shame to scare the poor
old fellow like that"

THE UNLUckY CAR.
Long List of Mishaps Which Have
Attended His Career.


1t has been suggested that Nicholas
H., Gar of all the Russians, Is the
unluckiest Of living men. One would
have no difficulty in showing at least
that the Car has had more mischance
than any other monarch on a throne.
His first mishap was that which pro
phetically came to him in Japan. He
was touring Europe and Asia in 1891
with Prince George Of Greece. At
Ussuri, Japan, although he had had
splendid entertainment from the Mi
kado, there was a feeling antagonistic
to Russia and a japanese drew a
sword to kill him, when Prince George
thrust 1t aside.
| Afterward a japanese maiden, in
atonement, went to a temple, placed a
sword hilt down on the ground and fell
upon It, You might call the event good
or bad luck, since the then Czarewitch
was preserved.
But what he was preserved for was
to turn later the first sod Of the 81
berian Railway at the eastern end and

He did not want at 90 to rule the des
tiny of 10000 people. He had Away

courtiers. But the duties and respon

He began badly. On the occasion o

The greatest canal ever dug was
