In the northern section of Japan,
there are 10000 persons who are
fighting against fate; for existence,
however meager; who are dying by
hundreds for lack of few cargoes
of rice, and who are succumbing TO
the inevitable because their unnour-
ished bodies cannot withstand the
chill of severe winter 1t is the
first great famine in Japan the world
has heard of since 1910.
On March Governor Higgins, of
New York, sent out a proclamation to
the state for funds for 'the relief

ANOTHER yOaktM ROAD.
Beaumont. Sour Lake and Western
becomes Part of Frisco system

Houston. Tex. April THE ex-
tension OF the Beaumont, Sour Lake
and Western railway. one Of the Fris-
60 OF Yoakum projects, has been un-
der construction during the past for
ty-five days. The work has been GO
ing on quietly at the Sour Lake end
of the line without attracting any
particular notice, but recently large
forces of men and teams have been
put to work on the line north of LIB
erty and in the Trinity river bottom
Fifty teams arrived at Sour Lake
about ten days ago and were imme-
diately put to work at mile Is. The
greater part of the work near Sour
Lake was wet and heavily timbered
and on account of the difficulty of
grubbing out the stumps on the low
grade a large amount of the work on
this division had to be done with
wheelbarrows and shovels The first
five miles was completed under great
difficulties and there Is yet consider
able of this class of work which is
being done
The Suderman-Dolson company of
Houston has the contract for this
construction, and realizing the i'm
practicability of using teams to ad
vantage, has established camps of
grade work.

audience which had gathered TO hear the
recital given by Miss Ella Dyer, who

the young planiSte furnished a program of
instrumental selections which justified
the gathering. Her program was suffi-
GENTLY varied to give her hearers a chance
to judge of her versatility. ranging from
light little spinning song by Litloff 10 the
"Capriccio Brilliante" by Mendelssohn. in
which last she was accompanied by Miss
Mary Olive Gray. Her touch is exquisitely
modulated and she brings to the rendi-
ton of each number a depth of feeling
rarely found In the youthful player. Per-
haps her best number was the Schubert
Liszt Andantino which was played with
beautifully modulated softness and ex-
preston.
Miss Dyer was assisted with several vo-
cal numbers by Mrs. Marie Gerrans. whose
voice was heard for the first time since

mexzo-soprano which has been well
trained and which is admirably handled.
