NEWS FOR THE FAR EAST.

Victoria, B. C.-The telegraph edi- tor who tolls in the Orient must needs be good at unraveling myster- ies. The messages sent by cable in skeletOnized form often reach the newspaper offices of the far east in fearful and wonderful condition, for there are many native operators Here is an example of history in the mak- ing in the Orient:
 There came to Shanghai a telegram which read:
 Stockholm crOwnprincess daughter villagers OekoeritO Hungary dancing coachhOuse upfitted ballroom fire out broke rushed exit many clothes burn ing downtrodden blazing roof col lapsed burying scores 25O perished."
 The name of a town at the begin ming of a telegram usually indicates the source of infOrm2 tion. The mes sage thus contained two distinct items of news. to be read as follows:
 Tt is announced from Stockholm that the Crown Princess of Sweden has given birth to a daughter
 The villagers of OekoeritO in Hun gary were holding a dance in coach house that had been fitted up as a ballroom when a fire broke out The dancers rushed to the exit, many with their clothes burning. Some fell and were trodden underfOot. The blazing roof collapsed, burying scores. In all 250 persons perished."
 One far eastern telegraph editor did not see the message that way. The journal said
 Tt is telegraphed from Stockholm that while the crown princess of Swe- den (Princess Margaret of Connaught) and her daughter were watching the villagers of OekOeritO in Hungary dancing in a coach house which had been fitted up as a ballroom fire broke out. The dancers rushed to the exit, and many with their clothes burning were trOdden down in the panic, while the blazing roof col lGpsed, burying scores. Two hundred and fifty persons perished.'

 the reverse of beautiful.
 If I were a woman, I should think once, I should think twice. before I in- vited a modern Belgian to paint my portrait. He might put too much truth into it. Certainly most of those who flourished during the last half of the past century seemed to care less, far less. about making attractive pictures of their models than about interpreting character. If they see lines. however hideous, in the faces of their models, they are .apt to perpetuate them. For, sad to say, they have remembered some of the lessons they had read in Rembrandt and others. only the color of Rembrandt and his genius have been lost of late.
 These Belgian moderns are not more tender to the men who sit for them than to the women. For instance. Staring at one in the first room is a portrait of "EdOuard Deville,- Profes- sor of Chemistry'-an app2lling piece of realism. painful in its sincerity. The professor is depicted Gs a tall, lean. blear-eyed man. with high cheek bones. His face is hateful, bitter, controver- sial. Dogmatism is written in every line of his detestable cOuntenance; in the tightness of his folded arms. on his flushed checks, in his aggressive atti tude. If he had lived in the days of Loyola, Edouard Deville would have made a fine inquisitor.-New York American.

RAYNtR TALKS AGAINST The
POSTAL SAYINGS BANK BILL
Declares There is No Constitu-
ti0nal Ground Whatever for
the Measure.
SEES GREAT DANGER In 1T
MIgla EM5

Washington, Feb. 7.--Senator Rayner
today addressed the senate in opposi-
tion to the Postal Savings bank bill on
purely constitutional reasons. He said
no one who has read the constitution
will contend for a moment that 1t
comes under the express powers of
that instrument, and that he is unable
to find any constitutional ground what
ever for the measure. Continuing, he
said:
"One thing / feel sure of, and that is
that the present president will never
regard the federal welfare clause of
the constitution as an Independent
grant of power for such proposed legis-
lation. Such an Interpretation would
convert us into a centralized govern
ment of inherent and unlimited func-
tions and, in my opinion, destroy the
autonomy of states and obliterate the
declaration of the tenth amendment;
and would make such gaping wound
i'm the heart of the constitution that
the blood that gave it life would with
er in its veins"

italian SHOT
BY BLACK HAND
Another Murder is Committed in
North Side Italian Colony
in Chicago.
FIFTEEN men ARE ARRESTED
Joseph Laverdi, Aged 26, is Shot in
Basement of His Home by Un-
known Assassins-Believed to
Be Result Of Plot.

Chicago. Feb. Another victim was
added today to the long list of MUIR
ders committed in the north side Ital-
ian colony, when Joseph Layerdi, 26
years old, was shot and instantly kill
ed in the basement of his home.
According to Mrs. Laverdi, who was
bride of a year, the victim had not
had any trouble with any one and the
police believe the murderers were
members of the Black Hand.
Laverdi had gone to get bucket of
coal in the basement where, ii is said,
his assailants were hiding. Two shots
were soon heard by the young woman
who called to neighbors and with them
hurr ed to the scene of the murder,
where the murdered man was found
with two bullet holes in his back.
Owing to the critical condition OF
Mrs Laverdi. the police were unable
to obtain any information. Fifteen
men were arrested on suspicion.
Laverdi was a cousin of Tony Dugo.
who was shot and killed under equally
mysterious circumstances in the same
neighborhood last December.
Another theory is that both men had
incurred the enmity of a member of
the Italian secret society and that they
were killed as the result of a plot.

DESPERATE NEGROES TO
MEET DEATH ON GAlLOWS
Execution to Take Place as Quiet
ly as Possible at Kan
sas City Pen.
NO WOMEN WILL BE PRESENT

Kansas City, Mo, Feb. 7.-Prepar-
ations have been completed at the
county Jail for the execution tomor-
row Of John williams and George Rey-
nolds, the two negroes recently convict
ed of assaulting Mrs W. II. Jackson
More than one thousand applications
have been received for permission 20
see the execution. among the appli-
cants being Mrs. Vera Henry. mother
of Mrs. Jackson. No women will BE-
permitted TO witness the hanging,
however and it will be made as pri
vate as possible.
The two negroes continue to main
tain the same stolid indifference to
their fate that they have exhibited ever
since their arrest. Reynolds has
shown some slight inclination to
weaken and to seek spiritual consola-
ton. but neither has expressed any
regret for the atrocious crime of which
they were found guilty. Both men
since their conviction have devoted the
most Of their time to sleeping.
The attack on Mrs. Jackson was one
of the most brutal in the annals OF
Missouri She was waylaid by the
negro brutes while she was on her
way home from the Crittenden Mis-
sion, where she had been playing the
violin at an entertainment. The ne
groes dragged her to a vacant lot
For days after the assault the wom-
ans condition was such that her life
was despaired of, and so great was
the shock that even yet fears are felt
that her mind may give way.
The two negroes were arrested al
most Immediately after the crime and
were positively identified by their vic
tim. They were convicted within
thirty-six hours after their arrest.
Public feeling was strong against
the men but no demonstration was
made.

Minimum DUTY
FOR GERMANY
Imports From That Country Are
Granted Lowest Rates By
President Taft.
COLONIES ARE NOT INCLUDED
Prospects Are That They, Too, Will be
Given Advantage Of Lowest Rates
HAPPY Ending to Tariff
Controversy.

Washington, Feb. President Taft
today issued a proclamation declaring
German goods imported into the Uni
ted States are entitled TO minimum
rates Of duty.
The proclamation does not include
the German Colonial possessions for
the reason that the department of
state has not yet had sufficient time
in which TO investigate the. question as
to whether or not such colonies un-
duly discriminate against importations
from the United states. Inasmuch as
the maximum rates of the United
States do not go into effect until Mar
81. next. ample time will be afforded
To determine that question.
There is reason to believe that be-
fore that date the president will take
action including the German colonies
i'm the list OF countries entitled TO min
imum rates. The proclamation today
is identical with that published some
days ago with respect to Italy and
several other countries.
