The Famine in China.

Editor The Evening Journal
II is surprising that a condition like
that now existing IN the famine dis
trict Of China should receive the little
attention it seems 10 be getting The
contributions from this city have
amounted to little or nothing.
1 believe there are many who would
willingly contribute small amount.
but the enormous amount needed to
furnish supplies causes them to feel
that a small sum would be scarcely
worth sending
I would Ike to suggest scheme
whereby a considerable sum might be
raised. Let householder in eaci.
square in the city collect among his
neighbors the sum of ST. According
10 the newspaper reports, that is suf-
ficent to keep one person from starving
until the harvest
one life for every city square ISM
il worth a little effort2
! sincerely hope this matter will re-
ccive the attention It deserves.
Yours truly,
A. B. c.

NEW YORK CHILD LABOR LAW.

II He opposition to child labor in its various
= forms in New York has resulted in the
signing, by Governor Hughes, of bill that was
passed by the Legislature prohibiting the em-
poyment of minors under 10 years of age in fac
tories before 8 O'Clock in the morning or after
o'clock in the afternoon or for more than eight
hours during the day. The bill was opposed by
some who reap financial benefits by the eX-
potation of children.
The only proper way to deal with such evils
as child labor is through legislation because il
the law prohibits employing indiscrmnately
children, all competitors are placed on an equal
footing The agitation against child labor is
spreading throughout the country No backward
steps are being taken The working of children
of tender years should be halted not only on hui
manitaran and ethical grounds, but also for ma
terial reasons. Long hours of toll for children
stunts their growth and impairs their future use
fulness as good citizens and as wealth producers.
A great deal has been written of late concern
ing the past history of Delaware and the views
OF her distinguished sons, long since gathered to
their fathers. This delvng into history may be
amusing entertaining, diverting and provoke
discussion. But there is no doubt who has
ruled Delaware since the Civil War The Legis-
ature of the State has been in the hands Of a
corporate oligarchy that knows neither party nor
political principles

 A rustic of stiff paper suggested to Kinross the opening of the letter re- ferred to.
 "T foresee the fate of Georgiana,' {" Daisy glibly read, "'when she comes home fin the fall and meets our swell new prof, Dr. Peter Kinross.

 "One can't trust Belle Dasher's Opin- ion of a man. though" Daisy inserted shes such a man hater. She hates men so I wonder she even has a man for a brother-in-law. She says she thinks men. as a sex, are very much overrated--
 Georgiana had no reply to make to these inane comments. and for awhile there was silence between them. the only sound coming to Kinross' ears be ing the rattle Of paper indicating the turning of the pages of books This continued 50 long that he began to grow restive- If he moved hand or foot they would hear and discover him Were they going to sit there and read for the rest of the afternoo1s Already be was becoming cr2uped from being in one poeftio1 So long But bow get

 as, dressed in overalls and

 0 plastered down with Abe Morningstars pomatum, he strolled about at dusk that evening under the trees of the orchard, smoking his after supper cigar, lis the renowned Miss Georgiana Ellery, the beautiful, the accomplished.

But, by Jupiter, more stunningly beautiful girl I | never sawr'
 In spite, however, of this conclusion, ] he patted himself on the head for his cleverness in having devised so excel lent scheme for the preservation of his liberty. What a boredom it spared him,
 There was one phase of his escapade which was not so pleasant to contem- plate-the discovery of his deception when he should be obliged to meet these two young ladies in his true char acter upon his return to college in the fall.
 His stroll had brought him to the fence which separated the orchard from the lane, and suddenly he stopped short and took his cigar from his mouth. There. a few feet away, leaning against the fence, stood Eunice. In the deepening twilight he had not seen her until nearly at her side.
 Her relaxed attitude betrayed the weariness of her young body at the end of the days toll. and the droop of her head against her hand suggested the pensiveness of her mind.
 He felt glad that he had come upon her; he was so curious to know how his disguise affected her. She had actually been surprised into a faint smile of amusement at the dinner ta- ble. It had fairly startled him.
 In the lane outside the fence four little boys were playing, children from neighboring farm Iaborers' cottages, and Eunice was watching them idly.
 The dialogue of the little cubs was diverting. so he, too. rested against the fence and listened to them. He thought she must surely have heard bis approach, but she did not stir.
 T used to be a towner-I lived at Lebanon" one boy was boasting. "Aw," scOTned the other, T lived furder'n tbat-I used to live out west yet.-' "Aw. why. you couldn't-' The first gave him the lie without ceremony.

 Mir. Morningstar's small eyes and mouth seemed to contract as he look ed at her. T ain't leavin' you run," he obstinately affirmed. "Eunice she nev. CT asts me has she the dare to go any,
 Yes, well, but"-Mrs. Morningstar came to the defense of her own in loud tones-"its some different, too, with your own flesh and blood and a 'dopted child. It wouldn't become Eu- nice to be astin' to go. She's to work and pay fur bein' kep' ever since she was too little to work yet. Your own child, that's different again. You might leave Ollie go oncet, pop, to this here ice cream festible in town. She's wonderful set on it. And you don't never leave her travel in society"
 q ain't leavin' her." he replied, with quiet stubbornness. Shed want to spend some at the festible, and she'd stay late, and then when she'd have to git up early tomorrow she'd git sick fur me, and I'd have to have a doctor fur her."
 Well, leave her oversleep her break fast oncet. Eunice she kin do some of Ollie's work tomorrow mornin' till o. lie feels fur gittin' up"
 Eunice did not again raise her eyes or manifest any sign of her feelings in hearing herself thus disposed of.
 q said Ollie wasn't to go nowt MT. Morningstar returned sharply. Iiut O. lie scowled during all the rest of the meal.
 "Well," MT. Morningstar presently said, rising and pushing his chair away from him as he drew the back of his hand across his mouth, q must go out back now and separate. Would yous mebbe like to see me separate?" he in- quired of the young ladies.
 ''Separate?" questioned Daisy, her head bit on one side to catch new fact on the wing, as it were.
 ITO see the milk and cream separated apart by our new milk separator where bought off of such a agent from New York over," MT. Morningstar ex- plained.
 How perfectly dear!' cried Daisy, rising at once, her notebook ready in her hand. twill you come, Georgiana?"
 "Yous kin see what runs the machin- cry all," the farmer said as they fol- lowed him out of the kitchen.
 Isn't it perfectly dear and quaint, Georgiana!" exclaimed Daisy volubly as tieey went across the room to the door. Everything is so rural"'
 While Mrs. Morningstar and the two girls were clearing away the dinner the former pronounced it as her opin- ion that that Doc" was "a black eyed sharper. who had committed some crime which made him afraid to be recognized by ''towners."

out of his predicament! To make his presence known and reveal the fact that he had heard their discussion of himself-that is. of Pete, the farmland would be embarrassing-to them, of course. He himself could bear up un. der it compfacently enough.
 Something's got to be done. he thought, feeling an intolerable neces- sity for stretching his legs.
 The two young ladies, engrossed in their reading. were suddenly startled by the sound of long drawn yawn, coming apparently out of space.
 What was thati' cried Daisy.

You're thick! A body can't hardly learn you nothin'! The Indians ain't wild no more-they're tanned now!"
 The dispute ended in a fist fight which led the combatants further down. the road and out of earshot.
 Kinross took his cigar from his mouth and spoke to Eunice across tho space between them.
 Boys are queer animals, aren't they?"
 She did not turn to look at him. For an instant she did not answer. Then, low and soft, her voice fell upon the still evening.
 "'Queer animals? But they are em- bryo menv'
 His cigar almost fell from his hand He stared at her averted profile in stu pid astonishment.
 Are we pair of cynics?" he at last found his voice to remark.
 But the words were not uttered be- fore he realized that the space where she had stood was empty. She had turned and fled like frightened bird. He stared after her retreating figure, his sense of the mystery which hung about her affecting him strangely.
 "Was that the girl Eunice to whom I spoke and who answered me in such wise? They are embryo menv Elm bryo. A girl who asks me who this Andrew Carnegie is anyway"
 He turned back to lean upon the fence again, put his cigar to his lips, and meditatively blew a Iong cloud of smoke into the air. By gosh"
 It expressed, as no other comment could have done, the state of his mind.

Meyer Released
Under Heavy Bail

Boise, Idaho, July 3O.-Charles H.
Meyer, president of the Western Fed
GRAFTON of Miners and co-defendant
with William d. Haywood, acquitted
Of the murder of Ex-Governor Steunen-
erg, has been ordered releasedon $780,
1oE bail by Judge Wood, who presided
at the Haywood trial He will leave
for his home in Denver.
No application for bail was made in
the case of George A. Pettibone, the
third of the alleged conspirators, but
a motion was made for a speedy trial
and his case was ordered set down for
Tuesday, October /. Counsel intima-
ted that they might apply for bond for
Pettibone later, but it is not believed
that the states attorneys will consent.
1t has been generally claimed that
the state has more discriminating evil
dence against Pettibone than any of
the cher S, while it has been generally
conceded that the case against Meyer
is the weakest of the three.
