MISSIONARIES TO LEAVE.
Situation at Canton, China, Becomes
Alarming.

Hong Kong. March 13.-The situa-
ton at Canton where the revolters I'M
der LUX a brigand chief, are endeav-
oring to GUST the local and provincial
governments is regarded by the coun-
; sci authorities here as most alarming.
European missionaries have been order
ed to quit the territory at once and all
the available river vessels are being
pressed into service to bring refugees
to this city. The Honam yesterday
brought LOO passengers and the
Fatshan carried 1900 more. Several
British boats are waiting at their piers
in Canton today. On account of the
danger of sudden trouble they are
keeping steam up, ready to depart on
the instant. The gunboats stationed
off Canton are cleared for action and
even the stokers are armed.
The fighting at Canton began with
an attack by brigands several days ago
and has continued constantly ever
since in various parts of the suburbs.
The attack began to assume serious
proportions when the soldiers in the
Bogue forts suddenly mutinied and
surrendered the forts to Luk's men.
The invaders equipped themselves
from the arsenal and with modern
Of the admiralty building. The num-
Der of persons killed or wounded thus
far is estimated by refugees at be-
tween 100 and $50.
The followers of Lux are melting
with stubborn resistance and one of
their chiefs has been captured by the
loyal troops. The Hong Kong govern
ment is keeping itself fully advised of
the situation.

FOR SERVING TARTAR SAUCE
Idea Put Into Use by One Hostess
Would Seem to Have Many
Good Points.

! A good idea for the serving of tar
tar sauce Of mayonnaise is suggested
by one enterpriisng housewife. She
cuts lemon in half, cleans out the in
side thoroughly and then fills the
halves with the sauce. She serves
one to each guest. When fish or sal
I'D is served the little lemon cups are
placed around the edge of the platter
and one is taken by each guest. In
this way the sauce is kept firm and
strong instead of melting into liquid
when put on hot plate.
For the home where guests are al
ways arriving and departing there is
nothing quite SO nice for the windows
as white cotton crepe. This may be
simply hemmed or trimmed with ball
fringe. For the dressers and bureaus
covers Of fleece-lined pique will be
found very satisfactory. This may
be CUT into the required size and the
edges buttonholed in scallops. Two
sets of curtains and covers should be
kept oD hand, one in use and a clean
Que besides.

government Works Out
Plans for Perfecting Ke-
nosha Harbor of Refuge
WATCH RACINE EXPERIMENT
e Work Done at Racine Proves Sue
cessful Engineers Will Recommend
Expenditure of More Than 100000
for Improvement of the Harbor.

The United States government engi'
neers have taken up the problem OF
safeguarding the Kenosha harbor
against the work of northeast storms
and it is thought that a plan has been
found which will solve all the difficult
Eies and that the carrying out of this
plan will be brought about at the next
Session of congress.
The plan that is suggested by the
government engineers is the same sug-
gested for the Racine harbor and
the engineer has notified Congressman
Cooper that he will make the same pro-
vision for Kenosha as Racine if the
government work at Racine proves
satisfactory. The last session of con-
gress appropriated $4,000 for the
work in the Racine harbor and it is
estimated that like amount will be
needed to secure, the proper improve
ment of the Kenosha harbor.
For the past fifteen. years the gov
eminent engineers have been at work
seeking plan which will prevent the
filling up Of the harbors at Racine and
Kenosha and which will save to the
government the continued expense of
dredging these harbors which is one
of the largest expenses for maintain
ing them. The engineers are convinc-
ed that the plans made for the Racine
harbor viii prove successful and a
similar plan is to be tried at Mantle
woe. In the past thirty years the gov
ernment has expended more than
100000 on the Kenosha harbor and
large amount of this money has been
expended with view of making the
harbor harbor Of refuge. The fact
that the business of the Kenosha har-
Dor is not as great as it had been in
other years has not been taken into
consideration by the government en-
gineers as it is held that the harbor
is so situated as to make it an ideal
harbor of refuge between the two
large ports of Milwaukee and Chica-
go. While the facts in regard to the
plans Of the engineers have been
brought out in connection with the
present political campaign it will be
decidedly gratifying to Kenosha peo-
pie to know that the harbor is to be
made one of the best on the lakes. In
the past few years the harbor bust
ness in Kenosha has been showing a
slight increase and it is thought that
with changes proposed that the city
may return to it's old place as one of
the busiest lake ports on Lake Mich.
gan.
If the plans for the work are adopt
ed by congress it is probable that the
work of dredging and the building of
additional projections will be started
some time in the summer of 1913.
