the prince turned into a little shrub

of the pool almost directly below the
rocky face OF the grotto.
The prince scurrled behind a big
rock and reappeared at once with
willow branch from the end of which
dangled a piece of thread. A bent pin

On the opposite bank of the pool

of the royal guard, intently watching
the fishers. King was somewhat dis

pale as he thought of what might

A young lady in rajah silk gown, a
fimsy panama hat tilted well over her
nose. with a red feather that stood
erect as if always in a state of sur
prise, turned the bushes and came to a
stop almost at Kings elbow. He had

was about shoulder high alongside him

face with amazed gray eyes. After

amazingly pretty; that her teeth were
very white and even; that her eyes
were the most beautiful and expressive

and imperious and that there were
dimples In her cheeks so fascinating

WIRE BULLETINS.

That war between China and Rus
sia is possible within ten years is the
belief of Russian officials. They base
their opinions on the economic meas
ures undertaken by the Chinese gov
eminent which will, it is said, have
the effect of forcing Russians out of
Manchuria and upon the action of the
Chinese in the matter of railway ex-
tensions.
1t is reported, and confirmed by at
torneys interested, that several Cleve-
land capitalists have obtained options
on about 10000 acres of coal land in
O'Hara, Indiana, and Hampton town
ships, and that they intend to start
coking operations on a large scale.
The property is located between the
Bessemer and Lake Erie and Balti-
more & Ohio railroads.
The United States leads the world
as an exporter of tobacco and is the
second leading market of the world
for imported tobacco, according TO sta
tistics of the department of commerce
and labor. Last year the United States
supplied $41, 100000 in a total of ap-
proximately S150,000,000 worth of to-
bacco and tobacco manufactures which
entered international markets.

Indians Can't Have Islands.

The residents on the islands of
Lake Michigan may rest easy about
the title of their property, according
to present developments.
James M. Paul, the Omena redskin,
is discouraged with the showing which
has been made by the commissioner
OF Indian affairs. The commissioner,
when Paul called with Congressman
Mclaughlin, produced treaty negotia-
tons in 1892 in which it was specified
clearly that after five years the ISL
ands should become the property OF
the United States. The only POSSIBLE
: ity upon which Paul has chance to
hang hope is that the government
did not secure the consent of the In
dams to that provision OF the treaty
which insured the government pos
session of the islands. The treaty as
originally signed by the Indians and
sent to the senate did make an ex-
ception of various islands and other
tracts, just as the Indian traditions
say But the senate, before ratifying
the treaty, amended it TO strike out
the exceptions. 1t was thus provided
that after five years the lands ex-
cepted by the original treaty would
pass into the possession of the United
States, just as the other lands covered
by the treaty.

Live Stock Talks Interest Farmers.

One of the most succ essful round
up institutes ever held at NJ. A. G..
closed with a session in which three
addresses were given on the improved
methods of raising live stock.
In The Work of the Breeding AS
sociations," w. +. Raven, of East Lam
sing, field agent for NJ A. c., told of
the vast amount Of good that was
being done in all parts of the state
by breeding associations. The idea of
organizing the stock breeders of a
neighborhood in an association which
should own a pure-blooded sire for
breeding purposes for all the men,
bers of the association originated with
Dean Robert S. Shaw, of NJ. A. c.
N. p. Hull. of Dimondale, in an adj
dress on "Up-to-date Dairying," told
of the improved methods of market
ing milk and butter and of the plans.

dairying could be made to yield much
more profit than by the slipshod meth

veterinary science department at the

years been putting his scientific agri-
cultural education to a practical test

BURIED BY
AVALANCHE
$50 REPORTED KILLED IN SNOW
SLIDES WHICH BURY TWO
IDAHO TOWNS.
LOWER MACE OVERWHELMED BY
MASS OF SNOW; BURKE EN-
ToMBED MONDAY MORNING.
Old Miners Gave Warning Of impend-
ing Catastrophe. But Were IN
needed by Many Until 1t
Was Too Late.

Following the avalanche which
overwhelmed the mining village of
Lower Mace, Idaho, Sunday night
with the probable loss of 100 lives,
a second huge snowslide came down
upon the neighboring town of Burke
at $3.50 Monday morning and crushed
IL out OF existence lin similar man
ner, the dead being estimated at fully
so.
Twenty bodies have been recovered
already from the ruins at Mace, while
30 dead have been found at Burke.
How many are still buried can only
be guessed at.
Every man who could be spared
from the rescue work at Mace was
sent to Burke and doctors were rush
ed TO both places from Wallace on
special trains.
From the foot of the Anchor Mine
Plant at Burke for about half mile,
the slide is 80 feet deep.
When the alarm spread through the
mining camp that Mace had been
wiped out mothers, wives and chill
dren of the miners employed at the
Hecla, Hercules, Anchor and Care
takers and at the Old Tiger-Poorman
hihC DCBdH " oCGh pldCtS VI SdlSlg &.
Wives and families OF miners who
had responded to appeals from Mace
were unable to move and these may
have been buried in the snow.
Because of the larger population of
Burke, about 900, the houses were
closer together.
Mothers hauled their children to
the side hills; brothers dragged little
sisters to places OF safety and when
the slide struck many of the homes
were deserted by fear-stricken women
and children while the bread provi-
ders were rescuing injured at the
stricken sister town.
Old timers in the Occur d'Alene dis
trict have been sounding daily warn
ings TO Mace, Burke and Blackbear
that because of the record depth Of
the snow, slides were imminent.
For 16 winters these towns have es-
capped devastating slides and so strong
was the confidence of the miner resi-
dents that their homes and families
were safe that no precautions had
been taken.

First Strike on in Battle Creek.

The Advance Thrasher Co.'s strike,
long anticipated in view of the union
labor agitation in this city, broke Sat-
urday, 70 molders and core-makers
walking out. This is the first serious
labor trouble which open shop" Bat
tie Creek has had in II years.
The strike was participated by the
refusal of Foreman Scott Anderson to
reinstate two union men, Frank
Brown and Jesse Wolfe, who had been
discharged. Both men were members
of the union committee and the strik-
ing molders, insist that they will not
return to work until their comrades
are taken back. This the company in
sists will never be done.
Sumner A. Bush, vice-president of
the Advance company, declared that
the mems jobs will be held open for
them a few days. Then, IL they have
not returned to work, new men will
be imported to replace them.
Most of the men on strike own their
homes and MIR. Bush believes this will
end the trouble speedily. However,
the union men have called a meeting
to consider matters.

whole School Board EIred.

AS the elimination of a program OF
continuous trouble for the past sew
eral years, during which time II had
been impossible to secure teachers for
the district school in Acme township,
the township board met Thursday af-
ternoon and removed the school
board from further duties.
The trouble arose in the district
when a basketful OF over-ripe eggs
were SHE'D at one of the teachers,
causing him to give up his position.
About year ago, on dark and rainy
night, the school house burned to the
ground. Gossip said incendiarism, but
nobody could prove it. Since that
time there has been no effort on the
part Of the school board to maintain
a school in the district, although the
township authorities granted them the
free use of the town hall The fired
school board will appeal TO the courts
for reinstatement.

The supreme court has handed
down a decision which means that
Van Buren, county, dry for 10 years,
must vote on the local option ques-
ton this spring.
The case came up on appeal from
the Van Buren, circuit court on APP
peal filed by the "wets." They set
forth that, although the legal number
Of petitions had been signed, the
supervisors refused to submit the
question to the electors. They had
asked the circuit court for a man
damus, and lost.
The supreme court finds that, mas
much as the legal number of signers
appear by name on the petition the
supervisors cannot go back of the
signatures, and must reconvene and
prepare for the election. The notices,
the court holds, were legally posted.
That they were not was the super
visors' contention.
This decision is exactly in line with
the one recently rendered affecting
st. Clair and Marquette counties,
though II was the "drys" who won
their point in the latter two.

How You Gain a Living.

Uncle Sam is very anxious to know
how every person in the United States
gains his or her living. In the print
ed instructions to the enumerators
who will begin their work April Is,
the census bureau holds that the oc-
cupation followed by a child or a
woman is just as important. for CEN
sus purposes, as the occupation of a
man.
The United States government also
holds that the more important occupa-
tion is the one from which the per-
son gets the more money. II per-
son has two occupations, the census
man is instructed to record only the
more important one. II that cannot
be learned then he is to return the
one at which the person spends the
most time. AS an illustration, the
enumerators are told TO return a man
as a farmer" IL he gets most of his
income from farming, although he
may also follow the occupation OF
clergyman or preacher; but they must
return him as a clergyman" IL he
gets more of his income from that
occupation.

FIGHT JAPAN
So Says Leslie Shaw and General
Greene, of Buffalo.

Greene, of Buffalo.
Trouble between the United States
and Japan was forecasted by Leslie
NJ. Shaw, former secretary of the
treasury, in a Washington day speech
at Morristowh, N. ].
Japan" he declared, proposes to
dominate the Pacific or make it run
red. There is race hatred between
the countries. You go to Japan to
live and you live where you are told
TO live. The japanese come here and
want to live where they please. You
cannot buy land there for any amount
of money, but the Japanese want to
buy land everywhere. Your children
cannot go to school there, but the
Japanese man would go to school in
this country with your little girls"
Gen. Francis V. Greene, OF Buffalo,
addressing the Canadian club at ST.
Catharines, said war between Japan
and the United States was good
deal more likely than official circles
in the United States will admit
There has been a tendency to keep
the matter under cover as much as
possible" said the general. Great
Britain has formed an alliance with
Japan for offensive and defensive pur-
poses, and should Japan ever go to
war with the United States she could
under that agreement call upon Great
Britain to help her.
But every consideration would
call upon Great Britain to break such
a treaty. for it is uncomfortable to me
that Great Britain and the United
States should ever go to war again"

knowlton Hall Destroyed by Fire.

All that is left of Knowlton hall. at
Hillsdale. is a mass of smoking ruins
and the four-story walls which are
tottering. Until Friday Knowlton hall
was one of the best equipped build
ings of Hillsdale college. The fire is
thought TO have started from a defec-
tive chimney and within a short time
the building was practically destroyed.
The damage is estimated at $4,000
with a total insurance of $4,000. The
records of the Alpha Kappi Phi so
ciety were destroyed. Those of the
Amphictyon society were saved as was
also the chemical laboratory. The
south side of the building suffered the
most damage. The building was
erected in 1874.
