HAS SINGULAR LIBEL LAW.
Australia Protects Its Citizens Who
Have Small Pride OF Ancestry.

Rave small Prioe OF Ancestry.
The libel law Of Australia is the
queerest in the world. He who is
sued for libel there must not only
prove that the accusations he publish
ed we're true. but also that to publish
them was for the public benefit. Else
where the truth of the accusation
alone needs to be proved.
An Australian sheep raiser explain
ed this queer libel law at a wool sale.
Australia was practically colonized
by convicts," he said. There is no
use denying this. The colonizers or
Australia were convicts in the main.
The descendants Of these convicts
are now Australia's leading families,
the richest, the most influential, the
most intelligent, the most respected.
And yet these excellent people were
In the past at the mercy OF every edi-
tor. Let them get into the smallest
squabble or dispute with some editor
and the nan would bring them into
general ridiculs and contempt by
printing their ancestry, by showing
shat Sir John Smiths great-grand-
father had been sent out for robbing
an old woman of 81 o. that Judge
Browns great-aunt, while employed -
a servant girl, had tried to poison her
masters son, with whom she was in
love.
1T is ~undeniah,y true that the best
Australians have convict blood in their
veins. The newspapers that they
quarreled with used to taunt them
with their convict blood. Hence the
present queer libel law, which pro-
tects them, for, OF course, 1t can never
be for the public good to publish that

LAUNCH STRUCK BY TUG.
Cause Of Disaster to Naval Men In
Hampton Roads.

Norfolk, Va, June 13.-It is report
I'd that the disaster in Hampton Roads
which resulted in the sinking of a
launch from the United States battle
ship Minnesota and the drowning Of
eleven men, including six midship-
men who were returning from the
army and navy ball at the jamestown
exposition and five seamen who made
up the crew of the launch, resulted
from the Minnesota's launch being
run down by a tug and coal barge
which the former was towing.
The report, which, it was stated,
had been made officially on board the
battleship Minnesota, did not give the
name of the tug or the barge. 1t was
said, however, that the tug stopped in
the roads Immediately following the
accident, but finding on trace Of the
object which had been struck or any
sign of life or anything IN the water
resumed its course with the coal barge
in tow.
The presumption is that the launch,
a small craft, sank Immediately in the
darkness of the stormy night, the
eleven occupants being caught in their
canvas covered craft with no possible
way of escape and carried to the bot
tom, drowning like rats in a trap.
1t was raining and the choppy seas
were sending spray to such an extent
that it became necessary for those in
the launch to have the canvas cover
little vessel.

ODD NEW ZEALAND BIRDS.
The Honey Eater Acts Like a Preach
err and Looks the Part.

The honey eater is one of the com.
monest and at the same time hand
soonest of the New Zealand birds, says
the London Graphic. The neck is or
namented with a frill of curly feath-
ers Of a greenish color with white CEN
tiers and the throat is adorned with a
:uft of white feathers, which has
gained for il the popular name OF
''parson bird" an ~appellation appyo-
pirate not only because Of the decora-
ton but because of the resemblance of
It's peculiar attitudes when singing to
uberant lecturers when wishing to
drive home their points. The bird Is
an excellent mimic and can be taught
to repeat short sentences with extra
ordinary clearness and also to whistle
short songs quite as well as a parrot.
The late Sir Walter Butler told the
amusing story that he was once ad-
dressing a large meeting OF natives
on a matter Of considerable political
Importance and had been urging his
views with all the earnestness that
the subject demanded when immedl-
ately on the conclusion OF the speech
and before the old chief to whom his
arguments were chiefly addressed had
time to reply a honey eater, whose
netted cage hung to a rafter overhead,
responded in a clear. emphatic way,
"Tito!" (false.).
The circumstances naturally caused
much merriment among the audience
and quite upset the gravity of the ven
cradle old chief. Friend he said,
laughing, your arguments are very
good, but my mokai is a very wise
bird and he is not yet convinced"

than in all Wisconsin, was not select
ed as the site of at least n of the
stations.

FANS FLAME OF INDIGNATION
laps Hear of Another Trivial
Affair in California.

Toxic, June 13.--The Asahi's cor
respondent at Washington reports an
attack upon a Japanese horticulturist
at Berkeley, Cal, resulting in the de-
struction of a greenhouse and other
property. This has famed the flame
of indignation, already strong here,
and has served to confirm the popular
belief that violence of the kind is not
accidental but the result of a deeply
rooted feeling against the japanese.
San Francisco, June 13.-Referring
to the alleged attack on a Japanese
horticulturist at Berkeley Thomas G..
Walker, representing the Japanese as
ISOLATION of America, states that 1t
was a trivial affair. Some boys had
thrown a few stones at a greenhouse
belonging to a Japanese, but the dam
age was slight and the association
would take no action in regard to the
incident, leaving the local authorities
to deal with the offenders.
