The Chinaman in New Zealand.
From NJ. A. p.

FrOm VI. a. +.
few weeks ago the Chinese of New
Zealand were found to be doing a very
great deal OF the laundry work available.
and had so thrown out of employment
the woman workers In some Of the laun-
dries. In New Zealand laundry is
factory within the meaning OF the fac
tories act. so 1t occurred to a lawmaker
that he could settle the difficulty OF this
Chinese competition by a neat amend
ment in the Interpretation clause OF the
act above mentioned. An amendment was
therefore drafted and printed and sent
with the utmost seriousness and good
faith to the crown law once for eonsid-
Grafton: il contained a provision in these
words: For the purposes OF this act tthe
factories act). Chinaman shall be deem
ed to be a girl under eighteen years OF
age"

not. The bones were found not
more than two miles from the Rec

THOUSANDS GIVEN INDIANS
Distribution of More Than 100000
at Red Lake Agency Now On
Whites to Benefit.
NO INTERROGATION IS PERMITTED

The Red Lake Indians are today
receiving a payment of part of mon
eys due them for sale of lands on
! their reservation; and each member
of the band, both adults and minors,
are beneficiaries.
Superintendent Bishop, of the Red
Lake agency, was in Bemidji yester-
day. He explained that each Indian
is to receive $4O.7O. There are
1,40O Indians who are members of
the Red Lake band, and as many of
the families number or more, the
total sum the heads of families will
have in custody will amount to more
than 100000.
The payment has been conducted
quietly and there has been no dis
turbance of any kind.
Much of the money being received
by the Indians today will be turned
over to merchants at the agency on
debts due and in buying additional
supplies.
There is an entire absence of in
toxication among the Indians, as the
law relative to selling or giving away
liquor to persons of Indian blood is
being rigidly observed.
