Danger Reappears In China
Another Ant-Fore Uprising Chans-Sha Feared Foreigners Officially Notified to Seek Refuge All
 Available Ships-


 Washington, May 1o.-Another up rising at Chang-Sha, China, is very much feared. The commander of the United States gunboat Helena has tele-. xraphed to the state department from Hankow to the effect that the condi- tfons at Chang-S Sha are most serious and that all foreigners were notified officially on the 11th instant to seek refuge on the ships that were available. The war vessels in the river are be- lieved to be sufficiently strong to con- trol the situation
 Although the state department has not been officially advised as to the exact nature or cause of the present threatened uprising. it is believed that 1t is directed principally against the Manchu government. It was pointed out that revolutionary uprisings were of more or less frequent occurrence throughout China, but that in most cases the scenes of the disturbances were so remote from news centers that many of them passed without the facts

QUITS PULPIT IN ORDER
 TO TAKE UP BUSINESS
Rev. McLaurin Would Rather Die Than Be Narrow and Unprogressive.

Chicago. May 16.-with a parting defense of his stand and a declara- tion that he would rather die than be narrow, bfgoted and unprogressive, the Rev Donald McLaurin gave his last sermon at the Second Baptist church yesterday. He said later he was through with the ministry, and would enter business. In his sermon one passage stood out strongly. "A clergyman of today" he said. should not be held responsible for the theol- ogy of the sixteenth century. We were bidden to grow in grace and in knowledge, and I do not believe any one has yet exhausted the supply of either. A man may have a. new vision or he may have an old one from a new angle. I shall always be a Baptist: but I shall be 8 progressive one; should rather die than become any thing else.
 Dr. McLaurin opposed the expulsion of Prof. George BurInan Foster from the Chicago Baptist ministers con- ference last year, but without indicat- ing whether he shared the university professors belief He called the act of the conference a 'usurpation of authority" and after an unsuccessf ful fight against the ruling he withdrew himself.

 ever becoming known. The present movement, however, in Human province is of more than ordinary significance, inasmuch as the province is one of the most wealthy and important in all China. During the last century the troops from Human have borne the brunt of many conflicts, and credit is given them for suppressing the Taiping rebellion, in which the contest lasted from 1855 to 1864. The people of the province have long been noted for their anti-foreign sentiment and for their bravery in battle
 The proposed line of railroad from Hankow south runs directly through this province. and it is believed that the disturbed conditions there will stimulate the Chinese authorities to their best effort to secure the con- struction of this road at as early a date as possible, as upon its completion the government will be in a position to rush troops to the diSaffected sections in case of formidable uprfsings-

90,00O AMERICAN
 SETTLERS GO
 TO CANADA
THE YEAR 1909 HAS SHOWN AN INCREASE OF OVER EIGHTY PER CENT IN AMERICAN
 SETTLEMENT.

Recent advices from Canada, our next door neighbour, the neighbourly country across the boundary line, are that upwards of ninety thousand settlers from the United States went into Western Canada during the past year, most of them for the purpose of taking up and settling upon the va cant lands, 160 acres of which are given free by the government, and lands adjoining held by railway and land companies are selling at from nine to fifteen and twenty dollars per acre. Even if thirty and forty dollars per acre were paid, the price would be low, as the lands produce wonderfully and at these higher figures there is large interest on the money and labor invested. The ninety thousand set tiers of last year, followed about sixty thousand of the previous year, and for several years the number has been running into these large figures. There must be a reason for it. It may be found in the single phrase, they are satisfied" Nothing attracts people more than the success of others, and the news of this reaching other thou sands, causes them to investigate. The investigation in this case is always satisfactory. The splendid land of Iowa, of Indiana, of Nebraska, Kansas, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan, Ohio and other States has risen to a high value, and it is worth every dollar PI1t ic now for all on these lands. With the ever increasing demand for grain there comes the ever increasing de- mand for land Canada is the only country on the continent in a position to supply it. Land there that costs, say fifteen dollars an acre, produces on reasonable calculation, 25 bushels of wheat to the acre, or about $20.00 The most liberal calculation as to cost makes the cost to produce s7.50 per acre, leaving balance of $1250 per acre. The $7.50 carries good wages for the farmer, and all other conceiv- able contingencies. With conditions like this, covering the entire area of about 500,000 square miles, it is read fly understood why 90,000 Americans should follow the sixty thousand of the previous year. Canadian Govern ment Agencies at different points in the Union are always ready to give in- formation regarding the free home stead lands, ready to advise the set tier as to the districts which would suit him best.

 Many farmers complain of the high price of seed, cowpeas, etc. Farmers produce these, or can if they wish Why do they complain? It is because they are buyers and not sellers. See the point?
 Plenty of grain, even to lowering the price, is a good thing for all live stock, more especially the horses. A poor horse gives us a pain at any time, but more especially in time of grain in plenty. Worse yet, if the horse is young and should be looking well.
