When the Jam Goes Out.

Log jams are not an abnormal part
of the riverman's work, as most peo-
pie suppose, but a regular incident of
the days business. In the breaking
of them the jam crew must be quick
and sure. I know of no finer sight
than the going out of a tail jam.
The men pry, heave and tug some
times for hours. Then all at once
the apparently solid surface begins
to creak and settle. The men zig
gag rapidly to shore. A crash and
spout of waters marks where the first
tier is already topping into the cur
rent. The front melts like sugar.
A vast, formidable movement agi-
tates the brown tangle as far as you
can see. And then with another
sudden and mighty crash the whole
river bursts into a torrent Of motion.
If everything has gone we'll the
men are all safe ashore, leaning on
their peavies, but ready at any in
slant to hasten out for the purpose
of discouraging by quick, hard work
any tendency to plug on the part of
the moving timbers. I have seen
men out of bravado jump from the
breast of a jam, just as it was break
ing down to a floating log ahead,
thus to be carried in the sweep and.
rush far down the river. A single
slip antdeath.-From" Jack Boyd:

ward White, in The Outing Magazine.

Wars and Runors Of Wars Abroad;

~ France Faces a Civil War
la.Incited by Wine Growers.

Paris, France.-The Government
acted none too soon in determining
to set the law in motion against the
wine growing revolutionaries in the
South of France.
A special correspondent of the
Petit Parisien, who visited the 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out of date carriages, with the wheels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 used to form. barri-
cades. Spears were stuck into the
ground and Joined with wires and
brambles interviewer. Fire pumps
were 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 II any one wanted
to arrest Marcellin Albert he would
bite the dust first.
A late dispatch from Narbonne
says the people commenced to erect
barbados there, but Ferroul ordered
their demolition. The people obeyed
him.
Much activity is reported among
the troops. Regiments are leaving
the Midi and others are replacing
them.

E TO TEA
And 1t Wound Her Bobbin.

Tea drinking frequently affects
people as badly as coffee. A lady in
Salisbury, Md, says that she was
compelled to abandon the use Of cof-
fee a good many years ago, because
it threatened to ruin her health and
that she went owe to tea drinking,
but finally she had dyspepsia so bad
that she had lost twenty-five pounds
and no food seemed to agree with
her.
She further says: cat this time l
was induced to take up the famous
food drink, Postum, and was so much
pleased with the results that l have
never been without 1t since. / COM
menced to improve at once, -'egained
my twenty-five pounds of flesh and
went some beyond my usual weight.
II know Postum to be good, pure
and healthful, and there eve was
an article, and never will be, I be-
lieye. that does so surely take the
place Of coffee as Postum Food Cof-
fee. The beauty Of it all is that it is
satisfying and wonderfully nourish-
ing. 1 feel as If 1 could not sing its

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, 1t Is 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
Door purposes and so is allowed to
disappear.
The mere fact that San Francisco
asserted her undoubted right to reg
ulate 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 more or less hostile demonstra-
lions against Asiatics-Chinese and
Japanese alike-as they have done
for years. Trivialities Of this sort
are matters for the police, not for
war aIarums. 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 oyerworked in Europe, 1t
was necessarily shifted to the Pacific.
There is not now, and lev has
been, any serious danger of wal be-
tween America and Japan.

TripletS.

James Bryce, the British Ambas-
sador," said a Chicagoan, crossed
with me on the Oceanic, and on the
promenade deck n morning the talk
turning to Napoleon, he told me an
amusing story.
"He said that in Paris, during the
Napoleonic craze of ONE years back,
he attended a Napoleon play at the
Odeon.
I'm this play n act hinged on the
birth of the little King Of Rome. If
the child was a girl one cannon shot
was to be fired; if a boy two shots.
"Well, on the night in question a
cannon shot rolled forth, and there
ensued a long silence or the stage.
Its a girl said Josephine tense
ly.
But just then a second shot was
heard, and the Empress cried:
"'No, a boy, a boy!'
NOW, through some error a third
cannon shot Numbered forth. In the
awkward pause that followed a gam
in in the gallery shouted:
"'Parbleu! it's triplets! wash

CAR D|SSOLVES The
SECOND RUSSIAN DUMA
Nine Former Members Are Ar
rested and Seven Are in Hiding.
TROOPS GUARD ST. PETERSBURG
That Constitutionalism is Crushed Is
the General Eelicf-Ncw Parlia-
ment Of Aristocrats-Case Of
Gar is Weak.

st. Petersburg. - Dissolution Of
the Russian Duma was accepted
by st. Petersburg without any dem
o%nstration. In the presence of the
masses of troops which had been
thrown into the capital the people
kept within their homes and re-
NAMED silent.
The dissolution was most awk-
wardly managed. The Dumas spe-
cial commission announced in dig
nified language, worthy of a great
Legislature, that it would report
within two days to the House it's de-
cision in regard to the suspension OF
the ffty-fve Socialist Revolutionary
members, as demanded by the Gov
eminent. This delay was quite un-
derstandable in such a vital case, for
the Duma would have lost every
shred of its dignity if it had per-
mitted itself to be hustled into a
panicky decision.
These tactics forced the Govern
ment to put itself still further in the
wrong by the issuance of an impe-
rial manifesto, signed at Peterhof af-
ter midnight, dissolving the Duma
and promising a new election for
September IA, the Duma to meet No
vember IA.
At the same time occurred the ar
rest of several of the sixteen Depu-
ties whose immediate arrest had been
demanded in the ultimatum to the
Duma.
The official Rossia says that the
Duma was dissolved because it would
not Immediately surrender the fifty.
five accused members, thus giving
some of them time to hide, and 9TH
ers further opportunity to preach. y
The latter observation is strange,
as the Deputies could have preached
only to the circle of detectives that
constantly surrounded them. The
Rossia says that seven Of the men
have been hidden, but the revolution
lists deny this.
NJ. Mahlakoff, the greatest lawyer
IN Russia, gives 1t Is his deliberate
opinion that the case against the
ffty-fve accused delegates is weak.
The changes in the electoral law
promised in the Cars manifesto
mean the disfranchisement Of Sibe-
ria, Central Asia, and the Caucasus
and limitation of the franchise in
Russia on the lines foreshadowed in
the Novoe Vremya by the reaction
airy, publicist, NJ. Menschikof, who
wants an aristocratic Duma. Under
the changes announced Poland will
return fourteen Poles and two Rus
sian members to the next Duma. The
Caucasus will have nineteen men,
bers. In Siberia only two large cit
les and one territory have been dis
franchised, but the representation
has been generally fatally limited.
A significant feature of the stu.
alton Is that Premier Stolypin has
not done what he did at the last dis
solution, publish a highly liberal pro.
gram. This shows that constitution
alism is crushed.

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 an anti
dynastic movement in China, left
Toxic for a few weeks before the 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-
Tered similar fates. The government
troops on the Island of Manwo were
attacked on May 27 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 It's W correspondent
regarding the rebellion, states that
with the we'll equipped and amply
armed troops of modern China the
revolution must be crushed.

Russia Faces Revolution.

st. Petersburg, Russia.-It is
rumored that Admiral Wren has
asked the Minister OF War to replace
the Brest Regiment, now at Sevasto-
pol, by one whose loyalty Is above
suspicion. It may be recalled that a
portion of the Brest Regiment tenn
porarily Joined the mutineers of the
battleship Kniaz Potemkin during the
former troubles.
DR.. Dubrevin, president, Of the
Union of the Russian People, has tel
egraphed the Gear thanking him
for putting an end to the criminal
Duma and assuring him that the
members of the Union will not spare
their lives or property in defense Of
the monarch.

japan Fights Formosans.

Victoria, B. C.-Advices from For
mosa by the steamer Monteagle tell
of brisk fighting between the jap
anese and Formosan natives. The
Japanese have organized drives with
a daily extended line, gradually fore
ing back the natives, who hold three
ffths Of Formosa and number 100,-
900. After months Of guerilla war
fare, in which numerous camphor
workers were killed, the japanese
troops we're Systematically driving
the natives into submission. The pro-
gram is that each advance is made
permanent by tie construction Of
roads, etc. To date 1878 square
miles have been covered in this man
ner. The natives are fighting des-
perately.
