portant chapter OF lne llndl story o.
that most critical period.
In the FIRST place Col. Kane had been
stricken with illness while in the
Mormon camps at Winter Quarters az
the beginning of their westward exo-
dus. He had learned to know and trust
them. When the swell of public eX-
citement in the east was at It's height
he personally went To President Blu
chanan and plead with him to be al
lowed to come west, as II government
representative.
NEW YORK HERALD'S BOMB.
Meanwhile the New York Herald
published this important paragraph:
some OF our contemporaries have been
publishing long letters dated from Utah
and containing heart-rending accounts
of the sufferings inflicted on poor, help
less women by the brutality of the
Mormon leaders. 1t is perhaps as well
that the public should know that these
letters are made up on this side of the
Mississippi and we have no doubt do
more credit TO the imagination than the
memory of their writer's. No journal
has a correspondent in Utah at the
present time"
The statement was thunderbolt Into

present Tribune cotere. When Col.
Kane finished this long journey by
steamer. and met Brigham Young. he
encountered little of the genuine Nor

JAPAN AND THE COW.

There was time when milk was re-
garded in Japan with the same abb
horrence as cheese in China. But time
has worked a great change in this
respect, and milk and butter are now
in great favor in Japan. Whereas
says a writer in Harper's Weekly,
twenty-five years ago not more than
one or two per cent of the Japanese
visiting a European RESTAURANT, or
eating European meal at a friends
house, would have thought of touching
butter, fully forty or fifty per cent.
now eat it with relish. They are,
however, quite content to do without
it.
Dairy farms have increased notably
in recent years. Butter, however, is
by-product at these places. It is to
milk that they look for their profit.
Milk has curious history in Japan.
Thirty or forty years ago it was abb
horred. The average Japanese could
not induce himself to drink it. But
today many a household consumes one
or two bottles of milk daily, partly be-
. cause people have come to like it and
partly because the doctors have re-
commended it as a unique and whole
some beverage. "Milk halls" too, are
now quite numerous.

to contend against and which consti-
tuted a source of anxiety was the fear
that the United States, their principal
customer, having ceased to purchase,
the price of diamonds, according to
the law of supply and demand, would
be considerably reduced, but Fortunate
ly for them the business was in exceed
ingly strong hands, and a tacit agree
ment was entered into to sell no dia-
monds under the prevailing market
price, which agreement has so far
been adhered to- This is evidenced by
the statement of an American buyer at
this consulate some time ago that he
had come here prepared to buy $3.50,
600 worth of diamonds provided he
could get them for 30 forms ($1206)
per carat below the market value, but

Those taking a pessimistic view o
the situation regarded the CLOSING
down OF the polishing factories and the
throwing out of employment of 1000 t
5000 polisners with considerable ankle
ty. They contended that these work
ers would start to polish on their owl
account, and as the brokers had n,
control over them they would sell thei
product at a price considerably below
the market value. This in effect di

THE HOLLOWNESS OF THE EARTH
That the earth is hollow is the en-
gaging belief of a modern philosopher,
Mr.. William Reed. Any one who
doubts this somewhat startling pro-
position is invited to ponder these
questions, as propounded by MIR. Reed
in a delightful article in Harper's
Weekly: why did hansen sail fifteen
days through clear waters and only adj
vance one degree unless he was sailing
round and round inside? Where do
the seals and musk-oxen go for their
feeding-grounds? Where do the fresh
water icebergs come from? Why do
scientists treat the earth as if it were
solid and have to make out that it's
three times as heavy as nickel steel
in order to make their calculations
fit? Why is the sun invisible so long
at the north and south in winter, un-
less there's a depression which SHUTS
out its light? What is the Aurora
Borealis? Electric lights? Then why
don't we meet it all over the earth?
1t is fires reflected from inside the
earth"

the DIAMONDS
And DEPRESSION
CFrom Consular Reports.)

Consul Henry H. Morgan, writing
no country of Europe has been rela-
lively affected so disadvantageousy
by the financial crisis in the United
States as the Netherlands, largely on
account of the total suspension of the
diamond trade. He reviews the mar
ket situation as follows:
In 1905 the exports of polished dia-
monds from the Netherlands to the
United States amounted to $9,197,S43
in 1906 the exports We're 81 ,633, 352.
The year 1907 opened auspiciously
and under most favorable conditions
for the trade, and it was then thought
that the number OF diamonds that
would be exported to the United States
would be far in excess of any previous
year, but in the month of July the
American buyers began to reduce their
| purchases, and as the financial crisis in
the United States became more acute
| the orders from America ceased entire
| ly, and from the middle of August up
to the end of the year the entire ship
ment of diamonds through this office
did not exceed SIS, 900, and the total
exports for the year amounted to only
S7452, 6O4, as against 81, 633, S52 for
the calendar year 1906. In SYM
pathy with the American mar
ket the other markets of the
world became affected, but not to the
extent anticipated, and while the bust
ness was not as good as in previous
years the decrease was not of such eX-
tent to cause alarm, and considerable
satisfaction was found in the fact thai
, China and Japan had during the pas
year commenced to import large duan
titles of the cheaper grades of goods.
THE AGREEMENT MAINTAINED.

The baseball games to be played at
the league grounds tomorrow after
noon are the cause of a great deal OF
speculation among the fans just at
present. The Diamond Heads and the
Punahous who are tied for first place
will meet and battle royal is expect
ed Both teams are in the best condi-
tiou possible and both confident that
game is over. 1t is going to be red
hot fight from the time Bert Bower
calls play ball and it is not at all I'M
likely that the game will go more than
the regulation nine innings Bill Chill
lingworth will be in the box for the
Heads, while Bill Hampton will do the
twirling for the Puns. Both pitchers
are confident that they win be able to
hold down the hits so that no damage
will be done, and if the rest of the
teams support them the game ought to
! be very interesting to watch.
The Saints and the Rams also meet
and their game will be another one
worth watching They both have two
games on the minus side debited to
them, and they are going to try and
start in on the winning side of the col
umn tomorrow. Reuter- and either Joy
or Williams will be the ones that viii
turn in the speed from the box fol
, their respective teams, and it is very
possible that Jones and Vannatta viii
also be seen in the game again TO-
their old school At any rate thu
games should be the best played so ia
this year, and the lovers of the Ameri
can National game will be given bas'

SCHOOL GIRLS
FORBIDDEN STYLE
Gainsborough Hats, Artificial Curls
And Cheap Jewelry Are
Tabued.
GIRLS THINK BOYS FAVORED.
Frivolities of Feminine Apparel Are
Condemned In New
York School.

NEW YORK, May 2,-The girls OF
Horace Mann school at Broadway and
One Hundred and Twentieth street
have been forbidden to wear ultra
fashionable or eXtravagant headgear,
false hair, elaborate adornments OF
jewelry, high heel shoes and peek-a-
boo waists. THIS sweeping edict was
given from the pulpit in the chapel.
Ever since the new dress reform has
been the chief topic of discussion
among the girls, who aver that the
boys in the school are allowed wide
latitude in their selection of wearing
apparel.
Virgil Prettiman, principal of the
school. disparages the talk caused by
the new rule, and says that questions
of good taste in dress frequently arise
in the school.
For months the question of proper
dress has agitated the pupils and in
terested the teachers. A certain clique
of girls has been in the habit of going
to class in raiment that verged upon
the extremely fashionable types. Final
ly a girl showed herself in a hat that
bewildered her colleagues. 1t was a
Gansborough affair, with untold de-
Corations.
She was told by one of the teachers
that she must not wear such hat to
school, Another girl revealed couture
gay with little artificial puffs, and was
promptly commanded to leave the sur
plus attachments at home.
Another young maid demonstrated
geometrical problems on the black
board with her fingers decorated with
brilliants. These instances aroused a
keen rivalry among the girls in the
matter of dress, until the decision was
reached to tell the girls that there
must be moderation.

WHAT is THE BEST FICTION.

WHAT Is HE BEST tlCllON.
The best fiction of today has really
more of constructive art than that
which preceded it, though this art
following the lines of life rather than
an arranged scheme, is not manifest in
obvious features. II mas more varied
traits, instead of a few emphatically
pronounced or merely typical features
1t has deeper dramatic interest, in
telectually and emotionally, though
the drama itself is so changed to fol-
low the pattern which life itself makes
yet in it's course unfolding novel sur
prises. Above all, it has more spOn-
taneous play of human activities and
finer and more vital humor-not the
specific humor which eXcites to laugh
ter or even suppressed merriment, but
which, like every other quality of the
modern art of expression, is pervasive
without losing articulate distinction,
concurrent with the ever-varying
course of the writer's thought and Ieel-
ing Humor in this sense, is the most
distinctive quality of life-the index
of its feXibility, of it's tenderness,
mercy and forgiveness.-H. M. Alden
