Both men are confident of the re.

Both of the combatants are clever

Britt has greater ring experience

ATTITUDE UNAsSAILABLE.
Fishers Stand at Hardin Fully
!, Within Recognized Ri-hts.

WASHINGTON, April 10.-The
Russian government has been put in
possession of the views of the Amer
lean state department regarding that
portion of Hardin, Manchuria, con-
trolled by the Chinese Western COM
pany and brought into question by
the attitude of American Consul
General Fisher in maintaining that
he is accredited exclusively to Chi
ma, and consequently is unable to
recognize any other authority In
Hardin. These views, which have
been embodied in note prepared by
Secretary Root and transmittd to st.
Petersburg through Baron Rosen
the Russian ambassador, make II
clear that the attitude which Consul
General Fisher has maintained is en-
tirely consistent with and not preju-
dicial to the relations which exist
between China and the railroad
company.
It is said that no new instructions
will 20 to Consul General Fisher, as
result of the negotiations between
St. Petersburg and Washington, and
that the position OF the American
government remains precisely as
heretofore.
On this point emphasis is given t.
1.-THE statement that the American
government is in no way involved
nor has it taken any position with
respect to the relations between thf
Chinese and Russian governments OF

NapoIeon and the CobbIer.


On Napoleon's arrival at MARSHA
Tours the mayor, a farmer, tried in
vain to make the speech he had pre-
pared. Bowling and scraping. he stood
fascinated by Bonaparte's scrutinizing
black eyes-an unhappy squirrel in the
gaze of the rattlesnake. Close behind
the trem bling mayor stood an old shoe
maker. in figure a true Don QuiXote,
clad in his working dress. why don't
you speak, you foOl?' he muttered
from time to time to his leader. At
last his patience gave way. He pushed
the mayor aside, advanced, with his
left hand removed his greasy cotton
nightcap, with his right lifted the horn
spectacles from his nose. made his bow
and delivered the grafton: Emperor,
you are on your way to thrash the
Prussian rogues once more. / hope
soon to see you return crowned with
glory. and have nothing more TO say,
but that Caesar and Alexander We're
botches in comparison with you"
The emperor laughed and inquired of
the old man whether he had any sons
YES; four are In the army-two of
these In the guards" Their names
were taken down, and the honest shoe
maker soon saw them raised to the
( rank, OF officers and found himself pro-
vided with a comforta BILE pension.

There Was Four Inches of
Snow on Ground.
A GLIMPSE INTO THE PAST.

Think Of it, as you mop the prespir-
alton from your noble brow and re-
mark to your friend: Hasn't this
been a warm day?", it was twenty-five
years ago today that four inches Of
snow fell throughout this vicinity. The
fruit trees were loaded with immature
fruit and the limbs broke under the
weight of the snow. Corn was four
or five inches high and when il ceased
showing only the bare tips of green
could be seen above the mantel OF

and free from heavy rains so that the
spring planting had been completed.
That was only a quarter of a CEN
fury ago. There has been general
comment on the late springs Of the
last two years but 1853 holds the rec
ord for heavy snow fall as late as May
