A MYSTERIOUS DEATH.

The body of Mrs. Maria Vierra
Bronco, wife Of a Portuguese laborer
on the Hanamaulu Plantation, was dis
covered by Japanese workmen Sat
urday afternoon, lying in a water
ditch containing about four feet of
water The find was Immediately re-
ported to friends and relatives of the
dead woman, who at once notified the
coroner with a view Of ascertaining
the manner in which she had met her
death. There seems no grounds for a
suicide theory as she was known
generally as the possessor Of cheer
full disposition.
As there was no indication of foul
play, it is generally presumed that she
had gone to the ditch (Which supplies
the family with water) for bucket
of water, and in STOPPING. lost her

RUSSIA To ANNEX MANCHURIA
AS PART Of BARGAIN BY
WHICH JAPAN TOOK KOREA

contains about 100000 young men of
more or less modern views, who are
ardent patriots, the masses are not at
all inclined to die for their country
and may be easily controlled by Japa-
nese gendarmes.
There will probably be some rioting
and vast amount of intrigue after an
nexation, but the little brown men will
govern the land wisely and so enhance
it's prosperity as to make friends and
cOnciliate foes.
That is what they did on the Lao
tong peninsula when they first occu-
pied it, in 1S94-95. They did so well
by the inhabitants that, when the time
came for them to evacuate the larger
part of the region, all the well-to-do
Chinese families memorialized the
throne Of Japan for permission to re-
move to the latter country and bring
up their children under so enlightened
a government
Doubtless similar results will be
sought in Korea, where there has new
err been much native prosperity, but
where Japanese enterprise, especially
in silk culture, should bring a great
deal.
The idea will be to create peace
through contentment, as Japan has
also done in Formosa, and to this task
Japan will apply itself with much sa-
gacity.

SAN FRANCISCO, August 26.-The
Chronicle says:
The annexation of Korea was prob
ably a part of the agreement between
Japan and Russia which Prince Ito
went to Hardin to work out with the
Russian Minister of Foreign Affairs at
the time he was assassinated, and
which was taken up later by another
Japanese negotiator.
The world will now watch to see
what Russia may be permitted to an.
mex as her share.
The only territory she can get be-
longs to China, and that the partition
of at least the Manchurian part of the
Chinese empire will be brought about
soon is the anticipation of all diplo.
mats.
Practically Manchuria has ceased,
with the resignation of the Chinese
Governor-General or Viceroy, to be
Chinese soil. Her cities and railways
are held by Russian and Japanese
troops, and as soon as the customs
are taken over, what of Chinese au-
thority will be left?
After that formal annexation will be
he easiest thing in the world.
One may be sure that Mr. Knox will
not write any violent notes on the sub
iect, his attempt along another line
having been one of the main factors in
bringing Japan and Russia together.

This is Peter the Near-Man'' week at
Chase's. and business started with a rush
yesterday the house being packed at
both performances. Several weird and
sensational stories have drifted out of
New York as to the astonishing knowl-
edge displayed by the monkey, Peter. but
after viewing the exhibition of the Chin
panzee the observer is forced to join in
the chorus Of approval. Exhibitions here
tofore in which monkeys have appeared
generally depended upon mechanical toys
to help the little animals out. but moth
ing like these figure in Peters act. In
riding a bicycle he does tricks that are
hard for human beings to perform, and
to see him on roller skates is startling.
When first brought out he is placed on
table and takes match from a box.
He closes the box, scratches and lights
safety match and then lights his Gig
arctic. After taking long pull at the
the air and then looks around for the
first time, a. if to ask: What's all this
fuss about" A good talker would help
out the act. as many in the audience
were anxious to hear the history of Peter.
The remainder of the program is excep-
'rionally- entertaining. The singing of
dialect songs by Elizabeth Murray
classes up with May Irwin's best. and
All Grant kept the house in roar with
new songs and stories. Good turns were
provided by the Rollar troupe of aero
bats. Jack Connolly and Margaret Webb,
in Twisted Opera: the kaufman broth
ers, in entertaining songs, and Christy

who marries a dancing girl. takes her
to Alaska to live. But the wife be-
comes tired of the quiet life in the
north and elopes with the villain. Be-
tween the first and second acts two
years are supposed to elapse, and Nc
Lain hears that his clipping wife has
been drowned. He falls in love with u
native girl. Alaska. At this point the
supposed wife returns and faces her
husband. Alaska thinks her lover false,
and the wife, learning that McLain
does not love her longer. kills her
self. The husband is arrested as her
murderer. but he is released on the
testimony of an Indian. Joseph Harris
plays the part of Francois Leclerc, a
