MIXED MARRIAGES DIsLIKED
Europeans in India object TO white
women RecomsnE wives
of Natives.

CALCUTTA, April .T.--0ipeclal Cablegrann
to The Pee l--A strong ling r. apparent
w growing amongst Amgio- fndians and
others having intimate acquaintance with
the Indian empire that the time has now
arrived when the law should step in and
absolutely prohibit marriages being con-
tracted between white women and the
native races of India. 1t is claimed that
such marriages almost invariably end dis
astrously for the white girl, but II is al
legged that the practice of the natives mar
rying white women unfortunately shows a
tendency to Increase Students of Indian
politics also declare that these marriages
are breaking down the old traditions by
which India has been held all these years,
namely, the superiority Of the governing
race. In many instances these marriages
have been contracted by Indian law stu
dents studying i'm Great Britain. The claim
is made that in the great majority of cases
the Hindu or Mohammedan simply returns
TO India when his studies are completed,
leaving his English wife stranded without
any means of subsistence, and without any
means OF enforcing her husband to main
tain her.

What usually occurs" he says. lis that
the girl is deserted when her black hus-
band comes home. She cannot obtain a
divorce in England on account of her
husbands domicile being in India. Neither
can she get the Indian courts TO release
her because she comes under the Mo-
hammedan law which does not recognize
divorce. but does recognize polygamy, so
far as governs the rights and obligations
of the marriages"

ROME April Especial to
The Bee. 1.-The reception Of m, rnment
program is on the whole mCfe decidedly
favorable thar that given TO 1t by the
chamber. Even the opposition newspapers
are forced to acknowledge the sincerity
and the thoroughness of Baron Sonnino's
attempt to solve the two urgent problems
of Italian statesmanship-thc final settle
ment of the railway question and the relief
Of southern Italy. The Tribuna and the
Popolo Romano. it is true. suggest that
the proposed assistance to be given to tho
southern provinces and the improvement
of the conditions of the civil service in
Italy are both calculated to acquire in
these quarters support for the government;
but as neither newspaper attempts TO deny
the absolute necessity of such measures
their criticism would appear to lose point.
Nor does the Tribuna offer any more valid
objection when II calls attention to the
expense that will be incurred and taunts
Baron Sonnino and Signor Luzzatti with
their former regard for the stability Of the
budget. Everybody knows that only by
the expenditure of large sum of money
can the country be extricated from a condi-
ton OF affairs which by continuance will
prove infinitely more harmful to it's finance.
Most people are agreed that the expendl-
ture of this sum can be most safely trusted

+ WASHINGTON, April THE State de-
partment has suggested TO the Russian
government through Ambassador Rosen
that the period suggested in the Russian
note for the convention of' the second
Hague conference, namely, the early part
OF July, would be inconvenient to America
and TO some Of the other countries OF this
hemisphere which had expected to be rep
resented at The Hague.
The reason for this action was to avoid
conflict with the Pan-Amercan congress.
which has been set for July q next, and
for tho possibly more important reason
that matters will come before tho Rio
Janeiro congress which It is desired ultl-
mately to submit to The Hague,
The Pan-American propositions which. ac-
cording to the present program, will be
submitted to The Hague, dre:
Formation of a general arbitration con-
vention that could be approved and put
in operation by every country.
That The Hague conference consider
the extent to which the United States
offers for the collection Of the public debts
is permissible"
This second proposal involves the valid
ity Of the famous Calico doctrine, which
South American republics desire particu-
larly to see recognized as international
law.
Cars Government Informed.
ST. PETERSBURG, April T.-Ambassador
Meyer, representing the United States,
today informed the Russian Foreign office
that July is not approved of by the United
States for The Hague conference, because
1t would conflict with the Psnamerican
congress and with the Red Cross conven-
/ tion at Geneva, Switzerland
/ The full text of the Russian note to the
| powers on the subject of the second peace
conference at The Hague, as published
here. gives the emperor full credit for the
initiative, not mentioning President Roose-
velts preliminary step in this direction.
The introduction to the document is in
striking contrast to the invitation to the

out how the increasingly expensive arma.

House Decoration.

Unless a dining room be finished in
Gothic style, with massive sideboards to
match, there is no reason for buying
high backed dining-room chairs. The
present way of serving by having things
passed at the left while the plate is be-
ing withdrawn from the right Is un-
handy enough for both servant and
person at the table. without high
backed chairs to provide additional
chances for trouble. People do not lean
back at formal dinners. and low
backed chairs that do not reach to the
shoulders are correct.
In the simple home the prestige OF
larger chairs may be given to the faith

When things get monotonous in the
house try changing them around. Put
the furniture in different positions
change the brio brac from one room
to another. or better still, give some of
the ornaments rest from duty and
leave on view just enough to lend a
note of distinctive simplicity. If not
in the habit of using flowers for every

try the effect of few bright blossoms
and feathery ferns. Then vary the
menu and send the ordinary dishes to

The Scully estate is located in CEN
trail Illinois, western Missouri, eastern
Kansas and southeastern Nebraska,
and comprises the richest farming
lands in these sections.
-Scully had long been known as tyr
annical landlord. 1t was alleged that
Scully's tenants, because of the oppres-
sive landlordism over them, lived in
poverty; that the rentals on the Scully
lands We're exhorbtant and that Scully
refused to make any improvements on
his properties. compelling his tenants
to provide their own houses, barns,
ETC., or else go without them.
His tenantry in Ireland hated him
bitterly, and in 1868 their revolt led to
the so-called battle of Bally Cohey.
scully, in person. led party of police
men and bailiffs against the house of
tenant and was met by fusillade of
revolver shots. The fire was returned
and when the battle was over two of
Viz eaIIoShii6 poitS NClo uCoN eHN
scully himself was seriously wounded.
The direct result of this fierce fight
was the Introduction by Gladstone in
1870 of the first Land Act.
In Illinois, where lie made his earli-
est purchases of land, an attempt was
made in 1887 to secure the adoption of
a measure that would have the effect
Of driving him out of the state. This
agitation resulted in the adoption Of
the alien land act Of Illinois, one Of the
most drastic of state laws. 1t declared
an alien incapable of holding lands in
Illinois and made it impossible for the
heirs of. an alien to hold lands in the
state more than three years. The law
was declared unconstitutional by the
United States supreme court. In 1897
the state legislature modified the alien
land owner law and fixed the period of
possession at six years. The law ne
cessitated Mr.. Scully's removal of his
residence to the United States and his
naturalization as a citizen of this coun-
try prior to 1903.

FROM THE IRON RANGE.

Eveleth, Mimi, Nov. did you
notice the nice fitting damper the
voters of the range put on Coles hot
last Tuesday? 1t certainly was
dandy: We would not be surprised
if the timber saved by Governo
johnson would now be used to heat
the capitol buildings, as it is admitted
by thousands that the coal vein dis
covered at Walker turned out to be
swamp.
Chief of Police Nick Kent is receiv-
ing good many bouquets these days
from the people of Adams. Mr.. Kent
gave his policemen orders to keep a
close watch for the fellows who were
doing the shooting on the country
road. This was done and two arrests
resulted. Judge Prince gave them
good lesson, filming them s54 each. This
was hailed with delight by the Adams
and Spruce residents.
The interest aroused in the fair for
the oenent or st. Patrick's church is
now at fss Ss heat. The leading con-
testants, Miss Eva Tre-Gillis and Miss
Katie Sullivan. have friends in a
number Of # towns on the range solicit
ing for them. A diamond ring is the
prize in This contest, Guy Springer
and Willie Brown are out for shot
gun. The little fellows are working
hard and cover a large territory every
day. Both boys are well known and
will collect snug sum. The Willing
Workers of the parish will serve sup
per the three nights of the fair, Nov.
26-27-2s. The best the markets af-
ford will be served by these ladies',
and they especially invite all theiy
friends to partake of the delicacies
they will serve during the fair. Rev.
Father Floyd has every confidence
that the fair will be a grand success.
To the Irish Standard, Duluth Even
ing Herald and The Labor World is
due many thanks for their good work
on the range during the campaign now
closed in favor of Go'sarnor johnson.
The voters can rest assured that the
governor will in the future as in the
past see to it that their every interest
will be guarded and all receive a fair
deal The little red ticket of past
elections was very conspicuous by it,,
absence, and it is well that it is now
a part of ancient history.
