Wars and RuROFS Of Wars Abroad;
y Peace and Plenty in This Land Of Ours
Death of the japanese
War Scare Announced.

Washington, d. C.~Despite the at
tempts of a few people to keep life
in the Japanese war scare, it g dead.
In fact, it, never was very much alive.
Beyond furnishing employment to
space writer's and acting as a political
issue with which to embarrass the
Ministry in Japan, it seems to have
had no reason for being on earth at
all. Now it fails to serve even these
poor purposes and so is allowed to
disappear.
The mere fact that San Francisco
asserted her undoubted right to reg
uIate her own school affairs could not
by the, widest stretch of Imagination
furnish a casus belli-except for the
newspaper and political purposes
aforesaid. Neither could the ire
sponsible acts of a few hoodlums who
made mor OF less hostile demonstra-
lions against Asiatics-Chinese and
Japanese alike-as they have done
for years. Trivialities of this sort
r matters for the police; not for
war alarums., And it was thus that
they were regarded. by all sensible
people, both in America and Japan.
The annual spring war scare hav-
ing been overworked in Europe, it
was necessarily shifted to the Pacific.
There is not now, and nev has
been, n serious danger of war be-
tween America and Japan.

Franco Faces Civil War 4
Incited by Wine Growers. |

Paris, France.-The Government
acted none too soon in determining
to set the law in motion against the
wine growing revoIutionaries in the
South of France:
A special correspondent of the
Petit Parisien, who visited4the vii
lagos of Beziers and Argelliers, found
preparations being made everywhere
for resistance. Old carts and heavy,
out of date carriages, with the wheels
removed, were usedLto- form harri-
cades. Spears were stuck into, the
ground and joined with wires and
brambles interviewer. Fire pumps
we're in readiness to drench the SOL
diers. ~
The women show even more keen
ness than the men. The correspond
ent saw some cleaning sporting rifles
and declaring that if-any one wanted
to arrest MaFcellin Albert he would
bite the dust first.
A late dispatch from Nar0onne
says the people commenced to erect
barbados there, but FerrouI ordered
their demolition. The people obeyed
him.
Much activity is reported among
the troops. Regiments are leaving
the Midi and others F Replacing
them. 80 -. -.

Guatemala Arms
Against ZeIaya's Invasion.

Guatemala City.-Guatemala IS
arming against the apprehended
Nicaraguan attack by land and sea
and heavy guns + being planted at
the seaports of San Jose, Champerico
and Puerto Barrios. Troops are
ready to-repel an attack from the
Honduran frontier, where President
'Zelaya has massed batta1ions.
Some of the official papers bitterly
attack President ZeIaya's bad faith,
declaring that after agreeing a few
weeks agoOat Amapala to submit to
the. United States any difference with
Salvador, now openly assists the Sal
vador insurgents and menaces Guate-
mala. 49,. ~
President Zelaya's campaign
against Guatemala will fail, but
these continual attacks and menaces
cause a heavy expense to The Guate-
malan Government and visit hard
ships on a community whose business
is p~aralyzed. Zelaya keeps the whole
of Central America in a ferment,
wherein Mexico's threatening attitude
toward Guatemala encourages him.

Chinese Rebels
Stay Officials.

Victoria, B. C.-Further advices
regarding the rebellion in South
China received by the steamer Mont
eagle, state that Sun Vat Sen, who
for years has been organizing al anti
dynastic movement in China, left
Toxic for a few weeks before tie out
break, and is reported leading the
revolutionists near Swallow, having
taken the field May % and opened
operations by attacking the walled
city of Kwang Kong, which was cas-
lily captured and all officials were
killed. Kaoping and Lin Ching suf-
fered SIMILAR fates. The government
troops on the Island of ManWo we're
attacked on May 81 and defeated, the
revolutionists then marching upon
Cha Chow, which also fell into their
hands, and all of the officials were
promptly killed. THOUSANDS of ref
ugees fed to Swallow, where foreign
warships assembled to protect the
city.
The Jill Shimpo, which prints dis
patches from its own correspondent
regarding the rebellion, states that
with the we'll equipped and amply
armed troops of. modern China the
revolution must be crushed.

to give ND all those lovely fireworks
and crackers and go indoors. Uncle
Sans game is a very good substitute
Hhder such conditions for the real
hrework[ fun.
For a Fourth of July party 1t is
necessary of course to have the table
decorations in red, white and blue.
one of the incest things you can have
for the centre of the table is an Uncle
Sans basket filed with red,-white
and blue tissue paper carnations, or
chrysanthemums. Indian pinks are
.r~eaHy-better than either of these, be-
cause the Indian pinks come In red,
white and blue in their natural state,
while nobody e heard of blue
carnations or chrysanthemums. So it
is best to make. your flowers look as
much like Indian pinks as possible.
The flowers made of tissue paper
have fringed petals and long wire
stems wound with the paper. On the
end OF each stem is fastened a little
package done UP in tissue paper. This
is a little gift. 1t may be I'M little
thing that you car find In the toy
stores. Flag. stiekpins, little mirrors,
pencil cases, gilt eagles or any small
gift is suitable. There should be as
many different things as can be Sc
cured, as that adds to the fun. 1t is
nice to have something different for
each guest. The flowers are then all
stuck in the basket upright. But in
order to make them stand UP until
it comes times to distribute them, it
is necessary to have them packed
very tight. So there must be plenty
of flowers. If the party is not a very
large one they need not all have gifts
attached to them. When refresh
ments are being passed around at the
party the Uncle Sans basket is also
passed.
Have a flower from Uncle Sans
basket" the hostess says. Then every
boy and girl picks a flower out of
the basket. The packages are of
course Immediately opened and the
little gift is found.

Declaration of independence.

A document proclaiming the indie
pendence Of the thirteen English col
onies in America, and finally agreed
upon by the Continental Congress,
July A, 1875. The committee of the
Congress to draft the declaration
was composed of Thomas Jefferson,
Benjamin Franklin, John Adams,
Roger Sherman and R. R. Livings-
ton. twas drafted by Thomas JEFF
ferson and but very slightly changed
from his copy. In 1894 the original
draft of the declaration owing to the
fading of the text and the d~eteriora-
ton of the parchment was withdrawn
from public exhibition and was care
fully put away out of the light and
air.

Japan Fights Formosans.

Victoria, B. C.-Advices from For
mosa by the steamer Monteagle tell
of brisk fighting between the Jap
anese- and REPRESENTATIVES.. The
Japanese have organized drives with
a daily extended line, gradually fore
ing back the natives, who hold three
ifths of Formosa and number 1907
900. After months of guerilla war
fare, in which camphor
workers were killed, the japanese
troops were Systematically driving
the natives into submission. THE pro-
gram is that each advance is made
permanent by the construction OF
roads, etc. To date 1878 square
miles have been covered in this man
ner. The natives are fighting des-
perately.

Russia Faces Revolution.

st. Petersburg, Russia.-It IS
rumored that Admiral Wren has
asked the Minister of Warto replace

portion of the Brest Regiment tenn
porarily joined the mutineeFs Of the

cracker, sizzer, pin wheel, roman can
die, sky rocket and the band-whis-
tie, drum, j~eWsharp, trumpet.
This game a be played as an i'm
promptu affair, somewhat after the
fashion of the old game of "Stage
Coach" or it can be made elab-
crate with a little preparation by dis
t%ributing flags to the players so
named, giving the band the desig-
mated instruments and having Uncle
Sam as story teller in the well known
Uncle Sam costume.
It a be accommodated to a large
number of players by giving the same
name to several, as, for instance, half
the girls car be flags" the remain
der pin wheels"
; Uncle Sam takes the centre of the
space, arranging the players in a
semi-circle in front of him. He says:
WAL, wal; all these patriotic
boys and girls come to celebrate the
glorious Fourth! And you guess your
Uncle Sam can give you some points?
To be sure.
Now supposing we form a trust.
Everybody who wants to be in the
trust get up and shout" (All do so.)
That's up to date, isn't it? You'll
be a trust working hard for. the
glory of the U. S.-which you know
means both Uncle Sam and the Uni
ted States. Every one of you must
do his best to hold his head up or the
trust will be ruined. When 1 tell you
to do anything jump quick, but take
time to act your part.
CHOW to begin. Here, sonny, you

can help the band when it begins to
play.
THE girls-bless their rosy cheeks
and smiling lips-can be flags when
flags are needed and pin wheels when
pin wheels are to be set off. You
know, girls, how gracefully the flag
moves to the top of the pole and it's
pretty lutterings al the head of a
procession"
Uncle Sam, having given names to
all the players, proceeds to explain.
Now, young Americans, I will tell
you a story that will bring in all your
names. When yours is mentioned
jump up and act Just as if you were
whatever you are named. If any n
forgets to respond to his name I'll
send an officer of the government af-
ter him. Johnny, get a pad and pen
Gil, I'll make you United States Sher-
if. Take down the names of the
slowpokes, and after the game they
will be tried by a jury of friends and
neighbors and expelled from our
trust as American citizens"
Uncle Sam seats himself and be-
gins his story.
WAL, I'll tell you about myself
when l was a youngster.
Ever since 1 vas a very small boy
I've been wakened early on my birth
day by a great noise of cannon firing.
(Ha! Ha! MI. Cannon. Forgot your
name. Put him down for trial, Mr..
Sherif.)
"We1l begin again-burst of can
non. That's all right, that's a fine
noise. Running to the window /
could hear drums, whistles, trumpets.
The mouth organ would play Yankee
Doodle and the other instruments
keep time" (U. S. is silent while
the band performs. When it sub
sides he continues.)
After that and the chores done
up the boys would go to the village
green to see the flag raised. (GirIs
rise and initiate flag moving to top
of pole.) When it reached the top
and waved gracefully on the breeze
(girIs indicate motion) what hurrahs
burst from all.
"All the afternoon the small can
non were shot off to brighten the pass
ers by; as long as the punk lasted
more f1recrackers and lots of ~sizzers.
When the darkness of evening came
we were wild with excitement. The
fireworks were waiting to be set off.
Who would get a chance to hold
some? Firecrackers, of course, be-
gan the fun. After q barrel or so
had snapped it was. dark enough for
pin wheels with beautiful whirling
and suffering sparks (girls rise and
turn slowly, waving hands and arms
in circles and initiating sound of pin
wheelsJ.
After the candles came the

FOURTH OF JULY IN THE PHILIP.

.-4- So. - +- 81
On the Fourth of July the Filipino
"outyankees" the most patriotic Yam
kee that ever lived. He has taken the
day to his heart, and is as joyous owe
it as a boy over his first fre-cracker;
and while perhaps he is yet a triie
hazy as to the exact Importance of
the event in American history, he is
perfectly clear on the subject of flags,
and he is perfectly. aware of the good
times possible on this day. In Manila
all the business houses are draped with
starry bunting, and the ancient palaces
are bright with the Stars and Stripes,
and even the boats In the harbOr are
decked with "Old Glory" Towering
arches, generally of bamboo, are cree
ted in the streets and strung with flags
and portraits of our national heroes.
In the smaller Philippine towns, where
flags cannot be had, these arches are
often made of cotton cloth and decora-
ted with wreaths and suitable inscrip-
tons.
The Filipinos have also adopted a
great many of the amusements that
used to mark the Fourth in our old
New England towns. Climbing a
creased pole in the public square is
almost always a feature Of Indepen-
dence Day in Manila. And besides
these, there are various athletic games
instituted by our soldiers, and usually
participated in by the younger Span
iards and natives. The evening of the
Fourth always sees Il ~band-concert on
the Luneta, and the day ends as with
us. with fireworks. Woman's Home
