COMP PLAINS ABOUT
VANDALISM
J. B. Smith Indignant at Ac-
lions Of Steamboat
Officials.

OrOndO, Wash. Dec. 23.-The
steamer Chelan on her trip up the
Columbia today. tied up in the main
channel and sent her crew of men
over the East island on foot, cross
iay over the dam in the East chan
ntl AMI cut down six beautiful fir
trees ranging in age from thirty to
fifty years, the two largest ones be-
ing six Or seven inches in diameter.
The crew dragged and carried these
trees back to the steamer and load
ed them aboard. The captain, pur-
ser and other officers came ashore
and superintendent the job. The
trees were taken from the Orondo
grove which | own and have cared
and watched for twenty-seven years
in order that the public and school
children might have grove TO play
in and hold picnics on the Fourth of
July and other public occasions.
The trees were taken from near
the school house while school was
in session. In warm weather the
children were in the habit of eat
ing their lunches under these trees
and playing around in the shade.
The children were astonished to see
what was going on and some of them
ran all the way to inform me of the
vandalism.

ty to fifty years to grow trees to
replace the damage, and there is
only one way that the company can
make satisfactory amends TO me and
the public, namely, to send US $50
for the damage, and that would be
a very creap way out of destroying
so many beautiful fir trees in pub
lie park and picnic grove. If they
have tie honor and manhood to
send the money, l will see that as
much more Is raised here, and it all
will be expended in making walks
and putting seats in the grove. |

a purpose.

MURDERERS RIOT
IN CHINA
Missionary Relates Tale of
Horror After Arrival
From China.

Victoria. B. c., Dec. 23.-Heavy
loss of life by floods and of severe
famine In Anhui Province of China
affecting two and a half million peo-
pie following the floodings out of
the crops, is the news brought by
Rev. E. C. Lobensline, missionary
from North Anhui, who arrived here
last night. Rev. Lobensline said:
so desperate were the people who
saw starvation ahead that thousands
were banded together into robber
bands. robbing any who had food
supplies. AMI for weeks scarcely a
night had passed without many muir
ders. A reign of terror prevailed.
Entertainments were thrown around
villages and numbers flocked TO
these places from the countryside for
protection. Troops have been sent.
but the soldiers are unable TO keep
the people, driven to desperation by
hunger, in hand and large numbers
Of executions are taking place. |
am informed that the same cOndi-
tons existed to the borders OF Ho-
nan
The floods caused tremendous
loss of life. During my trip / learn
ed that the rapid rise of water over
the flat country side had swept away
scores of villages, thousands being
drowned. The railroad engineer at
Kuchen reported that one Of the
bridges near there had been chock-
ed up with bodies of the drowned.
and he had been imprisoned for two
days in the upper part Of temple
before being rescued by boatman.
We met hundreds of refugees.
The situation during the winter will
be terrible, far worse than the great
famine OF three years ago. The
starving can be reckoned by hun
dreds of thousands and famine re-
lief committees should be organized
at once"
