JAPAN
HAS A KICK
CLAIMS COUNTRYMEN
IN FRISCO ARE HURT.
MOB DEMoLlSHES TWO PLACES
BECAUSE WHITE MEN WERE
THROWN OUT.

A report to Toxic from the consul
in San Francisco confirms the news
of attacks made recently upon Japa-
nese restaurant keepers in that city.
The public at Toxic is indignant, but
the press refrains from any hostile
comment, trusting the Washington
government to prevent the repetition
OF similar occurrences.
The disturbance referred to occur
red in restaurant conducted by Jap
anese on Folsom street and was fol-
lowed by an attack upon Japanese
bath house on the opposite side of the
street. The trouble arose over the
expulsion of two white men from a
Japanese restaurant on Eighth street.
They were followed by a mob when
they went to the place on Folsom
street and wrecked both places, the
men escaping through a rear entrance.
The police say there was no interfer-
ence because all the patrolmen were
withdrawn for duty on streetcar strike
troubles.
Adjutant General Lauck was shown
the complaint from the Japanese au-
thOrities at Washington. He said:
This is absolutely the first intima-
ton | have had of any violence shown
to Japanese in San Francisco. l shall
have the officers Of the staff investi-
gate thoroughly and lay their reports
before the governor"
Investigation lie 0rdared
Washington-The state department
has been informed by Viscount Aoki
the Japanese ambassador, of recent
abuses of Japanese restaurant keep
ers in San Francisco. Secretary Root
at once took up the matter with the
department of justice, with the re-
quest that an immediate investigation
be made. The ambassador informed
the secretary that he will shortly
visit the Pacific Coast, carrying out
plans made several months ago. He
will visit various places in California,
where he will be entertained by Japa-
nese societies.
The department of justice upon re-
ceiving the request of the state de-
rartment, telegraphed the United
States marshal at San Francisco, d.
recting them to institute a thorough
investigation into the matters COM
| planned of by the Japanese ambassa-
| dor and to submit reports by telegraph
to the attorney general.

pttle girl and a Shetland pony and
was finally dispatched by a brave
spectator armed with 32-caliber re
yolver.
The tiger broke down the door OF
his cage by beating it with his paws
He first sprang upon a pony. A
taeper drove him off with an iron
har. The beast attacked a second
and a third pony and when driven
away by the keeper leaped into the
crowd. The guns kept for emergencies
like this were too far away to be
available.
A panic followed. Women grasped
their children and dragged them from
the path of the maddened animal
The screams Of the frightened spec
tators mingled with the trumpeting
of the elephants and the cries of the
excited animals in the cages.
Through the crowd the tiger rushed
toward the main entrance. Mrs. S. E.
Resell and her year old daughter
Ruth could not get out of the way and
were knocked down. Holding the
mother with his paws the tiger sank
its teeth in the neck Of the child, who
died two hours later.

ing with his wife and children near
Mrs. Resell. Thrusting his family
aside, Bell drew his revolver and
opened fire at a distance of three feet.
When the first bullet struck the ami
mai In the shoulder he WINGED, growled
angrily and dashed his tail against the
wall of spectators. The second shot
caused him to release Mrs. Resell
and at the third he took to flight
Bell followed and sent three more
bullets into the beast as it ran outside
the tent. In the open air it crawled
some distance; then in a final rally
darted back toward the crowd. Bell

rows, the land becomes exhausted, the
crops fall off and the canes die out.


All fruit trees should be sprayed
without regard to whether they have
been attacked by insects or disease or
escaped, rs it Is less labor to prevent
attacks than to remedy the evil after
1t appears. 1t costs more to repair
damage than to ward of danger. In
some states, such as California, spray
ing the trees and vines is enforced by
law. If the grower neglects his duty
he is considered as one maintaining a
public nuisance, and some official Is
ordered to spray the orchard and add
the cost to the tax bill Of the negligent
owner.

Developing a New Pota,..

During the past season rema skabIe
progress has been made in the culti-
walton of a new species of potato In
the department of Vienne In France.
Ii originated In Uruguay, and Is called
the Solanum CommersonI. Amid its
new environment In France and by
dint OF CAREFUL cultivation and selec-
ton, 1t has developed several forms
winch promise to become fixed. and to
possess much value as additions to the
food resources of Europe. Among these
FORMS all sprlnging from one parent
species, there are n yellow variety, q
white variety, a red variety and va
r1ety not specially characterized by
color, all of which possess distinctive
shapes and qualities. A fact that par
ucularly interests botanists and cult
vators Is that these varieties have ev-
identity not yet reached their final set
tied forms, and the experiments OF
Nj. Labergerle in Vienne are closely
watched because it is thought that they
VIII throw light upon the unsettled
question of the general origin of the
potato.

Farm Work in Winter.

There are many duties on the farm
that are performed only during certain
seasons, but an amount of preliminary
work can be done in winter which will
save time in the spring. Not a seed
should be planted that has not been ex-
amlned, and an overhaullng of the
tools should not be overlooked. Get
ready for spring in advance, so as to
prepare for hurry during the planting
season. The manure heap should also
receive attention, as the condition OF
the manure will largely influence the
start OF the plants In the spring.

If the ground Is cold the strawberry
bed may be burned over, which will
clean the surface. This need not be
done until later, If preferred, or just
before the winter mulch is removed.
After the plants have made their
growth a mulch Of clean straw or salt
hay will not only assist to promote
their growth, but will protect against
drought and also aid in keeping tho
fruit clean. 1t Is not necessary to cul-
tivate strawberries in early spring, as
cultivation disturbs the surface roots,
but the bed should be cleaned. how
ever, by fire or raking.
