Brownsville Shooting Report.

The Senate committee on military
affairs, which has been inv estigating the
Brownsville, Tex, shooting for a long
time, has reported. That the shooting
was done by negro soldiers of the 25th
U. s. infantry, as President Roosevelt
charged, when he dismissed several COM
panies OF the regiment, was the verdict
of eight members of the committee.
Four opposed this finding and one did
not vote. The fight will be transferred to
the floor of the Senate, and if Foraker
gets as many Republican votes there in
as he did in the committee the
result will be close.

War Talk Foolish, Says REID.

In speech at New York last week,
Am bassador Whitelaw Reid dispelled the
notion that Great Britain is bound by al
lance to assist Japan in the event of war
with the United States. He said the OBJ
legation extended only to helping Japan
if she were subjected to territorial aggres-
sion in the Far East. He deprecated the
war talk and said that whether we be-
Iieved Japan to be sincere or not she was
not foolish enough to seek trouble with
us for what little she could possibly gain.

the unnecessary surrender of Port Arthur

Clarence Bennett, author of the singu-
lariy successful religious drama, "The
Holy City," coming March IL, is the son
of clergyman, aud Bible student of
distinction. His treatment of the sacred
subject of the passion and death of
Christ, the Saviour, in this play is not
only reverential, but symrathetis as well.
There is a simple majesty and lofty
power about the play that makes its ap-
peal universal. 1t will be presented by a
company of admirably equipped players.
Lyman Howe is playing at fremont
Temple, Boston, this week with an en-
tirely new line of moving pictur,s that
are said to be the best he ever presented.
He is coming to Randolph again in June.
"The Holy City, has been acclaimed
by clergymen of every denomination as
the most reverential and dramatically
effective of all the Biblical plays. 1t mir
rors the scenes and incidents surrounding
the death of the Saviour with marvellous
realism and moving power and presents
to the audience a whole galaxy of por-
traits from sacred history, including
John the Baptist, King Herod, Herodias,
his unlawful wife; Peter, Andrew and
Judas, the betrayer; Caiaphas, Pontius
PLATE, Mary Magdalenea and a host of
others.

room during the last week of his life.

listment in St. Albans.

ing clergyman, and the Masonic fraterni-
ty took charge of the burial service,
