WILL TRY SIXTY MEN
ON MURDER CHARGE
Special Session OF Court to Try Men
Connected With Bloody
Riot.

Lake Charles, La, Sept. IA spe-
cial session of the district court of
Calcasieu parish has been called to
when the trial of sixty men, charged
with murder in connection with a
bloody riot at Grabow, small milling
town north of here, last July, will be
commenced. Indications are that the
cases will be bitterly fought from be-
ginning to end, and will go on record
as among the most notable in the
criminal annals of Louisiana.
Arthur l.. Emerson, president of the
Brotherhood of Timber Workers, is
the central figure in the. cases, and
around him the fight will be waged
the fiercest. An earnest effort will be
made by the mill owners of this sec
ton to land him in the penitentiary
or to see that his life is declared for
feited by the jury selected to try him.
The timber workers organization has
engaged many eminent lawyers to con-
duct the defense, and long trial is
anticipated.
The riot at Grabow was the culmi-
nation of long and bitter contest be-
tween the mill owners of the long leaf
yellow pine belt, and the mill work
ers union. This union has been in
process of organization for several
years, and the mill onwers have fought
it at every step, even to the extent
of posting armed guards about the
mills to keep away union agitators.
Union men, it is declared, were dis
charged as soon as their tendencies
were discovered, and all men hired
were obliged to sign a pledge not to
join the union.
Considerable trouble had hcen eX-
perienced at the mill of the Galloways
father and sons-at Grabow, and it
had been lcosed for some time, final
ly reopening with non-union labor. On
Sunday. July Z, a party Of about 100
union men, headed by Arthur L. En-
erson their president, went to the mill
to hold a meeting. The steps of the
mill office were filled by employees of
the Galloways. When Emerson at
tempted to make speech he was in
terrupted with boots and jeers from
the non-union men about the mill. His
followers resented the interruption
and the friction between the two bod
les of men soon resulted in bloodshed.
That the union men who went to
the mill for the meeting anticipated
trouble is indicated by the fact that
all of them were heavily armed. Some
one in the crowd fired shot and inn
mediately the employees of the mill,
headed by John Galloway, rushed in
to the Office, secured weapons, and
opened fire on the crowd outside. The
firing became general and when the
union men finally broke and ran,
three men were dead and more than
forty others wounded.
At session of the grand jury, held
Immediately following the riot, the
Galloways and their employees were
exonerated and sixty of the union men
held for murder. Since the indict-
ments were returned the Brotherhood
of Timber Workers has been taken
over by the Industrial Workers of the
World. The last-named organization
has taken charge of the defense of
the men held for trial.

the EsquimauX in carrying out our
teachings of cleanliness and hygiene.
THAT first winter we learned that
the Esquimaux wanted to own rein
deer, but tnat the revenue officers
would not permit the importation.
,, Some of the natives even owned rein
deer in the Siberian herds across the
strait. And it seemed a shame that
they were forbidden to bring their
| property across from Asia, SO near
that the Siberian heights could be
seen over the water on clear days.
1--WE appealed to Washington for
permission to import reindeer. But
other government agents had preced-
ed us in this request. Before we had
reply from our letter that summer
revenue cutter put into port with a
shipment of reindeer on board. We
were overjoyed to know that the pro.
hibition Of the law had been removed
and set about getting more.
"ln 1892 came the first large i'm
portation. We brought in 1900 that
year, and from these grew the present
herd, scattered throughout Alaska and
numbering over $4,000.
"The reindeer policy was gradually
evolved. We impress upon the Lapps
and EsquimauX that the reindeer are
exclusively their property and care
For instance, they are not allowed tc
sell female reindeer to white men, SC
that the brood animals are to be per-
petually in the custody and ownership
of the natives.

supervision of the herd, though the an

| prentice herders for four years term
| For his first years services, in addi-
| zion to his living, the apprentice re-

i fourth year ten. So that what yor

"They are then free to breed theil
animals and sell their calves or stocl

Reindeer are food, clothing ant
transportation to the natives. AS food
reindeer is delicious, resembling botl
mutton and beef but more palatablt
than either. Along in October, wher
| the deer are fat from summers feed
| ing on grasses and foliage, they are
best for eating. The natives take rein
deer tallcw and mix red moss berries
! into it, making a dish that looks like
! ice cream and which is fine to eat
The reindeer finds his food alons

snow when tethered out and find moss

miles a day and keep it up for week

PROF. ROSS DISCUSSES
THE CHANGING CHINESE

Professor Ross, in his work on The
Changing Chinese" points out three
possible lines in which yellow peril
nay follow in the wake of an awak-
ened China. First, says Professor
Ross. there is the possible swamping
of the slow-multiplying, high wage
white societies with the overflow that
is bound to come when China has ap-
piled Western knowledge to the saving
Of human life. This, he believes, to
be real and imminent. The Chinese is
physically strong and tenacious of life,
3ut mortality among infants in China
5 astounding.
4 second palil is the possible over
0atching Of the white races by CO.
Iossal armies of we'll drilled yellow
men who, under the inspiring leader
Ship OF some Oriental Bonaparte, will
3rst eXDel the powers from Eastern
asia and later on Ovorrun Europe.
This last named peril is certainly re-
Hote and fanciful, for the chinese are
aoc warlike people, and their at
empt at war is sort Of imitation
The military spirit isn't there. The
people of China are neither combative,

nCTgy essential to wide military sue

Travellers tell us that Chinese boys

1}any motions, but seldom land a blow.
One writer declares that fighting cool

iurgatOry richness Of their language

race"
The third possible line Of peril is the
industrial triumph of the Orient. A
manufacturing China is the menace

immigration laws may protect
against the first peril named, provided
the second does not accompany it. 1t
seems probable, however, that China
will turn to industrial rather than mill
tary conquest as best fitted to both her
purposes and her taste. Efficiency con-
sidered, the Chinese laborer is not the
menace he would seem, numerically
and from the standpoint
of efficiency is no match for the man

Terms Young Naval Cticers Use In
Fixing Feminine Beauty.
The younger officers in the navy, and
the gallant young midshipmen especial
ly. have Il method of their own for re-
cOrding feminine beauty, and they use
it on many occasions. This is a sys-
tenn of estimating the attractiveness of
a visitor by a sliding scale from 2,5
to 4, which is the system of marking
at the Naval academy.
One particularly attractive girl was
walking along The deck OF onc OF Uncle

was open to visitors when she over
heard two ..iGshipmon say:
