Refugees Tell OF Massacre.

Shanghai. oct. 19.-Six crowded
ships arrived from Hankow today
carrying refugees. The ships were so
crowded that many passengers slept
on the floor. Most of them were forel-
gners, Russians employed in the fact
ories and Belgian iron workers en-
ployed I'm the steel works. The re-
fugees declared the whole Yang Use
valley from Hankow to Shanghai, is
in the hands OF the rebels, with the
possible exception of one or two OF
the larger cities to which the provin-
cial officials have retired with avail
able troops.
1t has been insistently stated here
that Kiukiang. $50 miles below Han
kow, is under revolutionary control.
This is denied, however, by foreign Of
flcials
Accounts of the revolutionary at
tack on Wuchang, as given by the ref
ugees today, emphasize particularly
the massacre of the Manchus i'm that
city. In the slaughter neither age nor
sex was regarded. and 1t is doubtful,
the refugees say, whether a single rep
resentative of the Manchus was left
alive there. A similar slaughter of
Manchus followed i'm Hankow and San
Yang when those cities fell. Copies
of the Central China Post describe the
early progress of revolutionary move
ment.
The revolutionary leaders," the pa
per says, displayed secrecy, prompti-
tude and thoroughness. qua tiles seldom
shown by governing classes i'm China.
But the massacre of the Manchus is
a CHASTITY blot on the reputation of the
revolutionary forces"
The run on the Imperial bank here
stlll continues. They are now paying
out for the first time the newly minted
dragon design dollars from the mint at
Manking.
Shanghai is a hot bed of revolution.
An appeal issued by revolutionary
agents here today asks for the coop
Grafton of our brethren throughout
the world"

If they don't stop making trouble In

The Chinese I'm Hankow have alb
solutely no feeling of relationship for

tie or no national spirit In China. What
effect China as republic would have

FAMOUS BlRD-MEN TO BE
 AT ARKANSAS STATE FAIR
Negotiations Are Now Pending for the Employment of Harry Atwood, the
 Most Daring of Aviators.

Hot Springs, Ark Special. )-The management of the Arkansas State Fair is negotiating with Harry N. At wood for aeroplane flights at Hot Springs during the six days of the fair, October g to IA. Negotiations are also pending with the Wright Broth CTS, the father of aviation and invent ors of the aeroplane. It is probable that Atwood will be retained, as his recent flight from St. Louis to the sea, breaking the worlds record for long distance cross country flights, has given him national reputation as The King of Bird Men" This will prove one of the greatest of attrac- tions, and thousands from all parts of the state will undoubtedly take advan- tage of this opportunity to see aero blaming in its highest art, and at the same time take in the great exposi- ton with all its other interesting sights.
 The plan includes two flights daily, in which the aviator will rise grace fully from in front of the grand stand, circle the mile track, show all the thrills of the art, short turns, dips, cut figure eights, race the fastest au- tomobiles around the course, ascend to giddy attitudes and descend with the famous spiral glide. Thus the pa. irons of the Arkansas State Fair will for the nominal sum of admission see the worlds most famous aviator in all the daring deeds ever performed in mid air.

TO KEEP BUTTER COOL.
here to please y0u

A convenient and easy way to keep butter cool is by applying the principle of cooling by evaporation, as used in the wet bulb of the wet and dry bulb hygrometer. The but ter is placed in a closed receptacle (butter dish with lid), and after this has been placed in a soup plate con- taining water a wet cloth is put over the dish with its ends in the water. Evaporation goes on at the surface of the cloth, and more water is SUD- piled to the cloth from the place below. This keeps the cloth and dish inside at few degrees below the atmospheric temperature, and by this means butter can be kept firm in the hottest days.
