MANILA, April 5.-Maior Tyree x.
Rivers, of the inspector generals de-
partment, who returned to Manila on
the transport Warren from Tientsin
and Pekin Wednesday night, gives
some highly interesting side lights on
the situation as he observed it during
his stay of a month in one of the
trouble centers of the revolution
Il talked with number of people
who have lived for years in China,
and who have become as intimate as
an Occidental can become with the
Chinese character" said Major Rivers
to a Cablenews man yesterday, and
none of them will even venture a con
lecture as to the outcome of the pres
ent condition of affairs.
Everything is quiet there now he
continued but those who are ia
miliar with conditions seem to fear a
recrudescence of the Manchu senti-
ment, which they declare would cause
another revolution. No one knows
what to look for next, particularly
those who are more familiar with the
Chinese. One physician now living
in Pekin told me that he had known
the Chinese intimately for twenty
years, and each year he felt that re
knew less and less about them.
"The main body of our troops are
stationed in Tientsin but some Of
them are stationed along the rail
road between that city and Ching
wantao. The attachments along tie
road number from twenty to sixty
men, and they all seem to like the
duty.
The last trouble was during the
Tientsin riots on March % and the
riots in Pekin the following week.
Our men were not called upon eX,
cept for guard duty and had little
part in the few scrimmages which
occurred during the trouble.
There has been little or no anti
foreign feeling displayed by The
Chinese. They seem to take the pres
ence of the foreign troops as a

Shanghai Police Threatened.
SHANGHAI, April 3.-The old anti
foreign element of the Chinese has
again shown its hand, this time
through a letter addressed to the
commanders of the foreign police on
duty in Shanghai, threatening the
police with death if they encroach
upon Chinese territory The letter,
which gives evidence of an organiza-
ton of some sort, is signed Blood

THE HOPE IN THE HOE
FOR THE CITY TIRED MAN

The typical man in the city who
reaches the age of forty years and
finds himself behind a ledger, or
twisting the handle of a machine, or
selling another mans merchandise on
a salary, has usually put aside the
hope of going higher and faces a fu-
ture of mediocrity-iust being what
he is. There are hundreds of this
class, who, fretted under the re-
straint of their employment, have
been constantly in search of some
thing else. Such men are not of the
inefficient type which dallies, but of
the capable class who, failing to de-
velop their imaginations to the point
of producing something new and use
full, are nevertheless searching the
future, not for any great financial re-
ward, but for peace, happiness and
contentment.
For such men an alluring prospect
is found in the farm, and it is to them
that Gardner Mack, in the May Popu.
lar Mechanics Magazine, addresses
his plain, impartial consideration of
their chances of success as farmers
He says:
'"The man who isn't a farmer at
heart invariably fails on the farm, nc
matter how much capital he may
have or how cheaply his experiment
with the soil may be carried on
Nature will do absolutely nothing fol-
the man who cannot meet her half
way. Those who do more than that
reap rich reward for their labors
The cry back to the farm is now al
most nulliied by the wall of the bit
ter failures who have sunk their all
in a poorly planned and miserably
executed attempt to wrest from the
earth its riches.
Nevertheless, the promise of peace
and plenty that is held out by the
farm is a genuine promise. Farming
is business. It must be conducted
as a business if much profit is to b.
gained. An agricultural expert hai
estimated that as a business it is no
Iemunerative, that the farms in tn,

of ]. p, Morgan today related the fact

was told how he had taken space on
the Titanic for her maiden voyage.
The cabins of a suit had been origin
ally engaged by Henry Clay Prick at
Pittsburg and his wife On their way
abroad Mrs. Frick met with a slight
accident at Madeira and sprained one
of her ankles. On her arrival in Italy
she went to a hospital. This delayed
them, and their reservations on the
Titanic were turned over to Morgan.
But Morgan, in turn, altered his
plans, and decided to prolong his visit
abroad The reservations were once

well as Morgan and the tricks,

United States do not average more
than four per cent on the investment.
Another has stated positively that
the beginner even with considerable
capital, must be prepared to- bear
many hardships while he is learning
the business. Both of these men
agree, however, that the farm holds
the solution of life's problems for the
man who simply wants to live with
greater comfort and contentment-
provided the man who takes it ZIP
has the soil instinct. And that there
is a profit for the man who will work
and plan and scheme, is abundantly
proven by hundreds of actual expe-
riences.
Therefore, the man of forty, with
a family, who has saved little
money and chafes under the restric-
tions of city life, who is willing to
adapt himself to farm conditions, and
to work with his hands and his brain
for the attainment and maintenance
of health, happiness and content
ment, provided he has that indefin-
able something that has been called
the soil instinct. This means that
the chirp of the cricket can replace
the clang of the trolley car; the light
of the moon and the stars can take
the place of the fiaring announce
ments of the theaters, and the quiet
of the country lane and field can
answer for the hurry and hustle of
the city street"
Mr.. Mack discusses many of the
practical problems involved in the
change from city to rural life; fair
prices for good land; sources of in.
formation regarding soil quality, etc. /;
the construction of the necessary
buildings and the selecting the equip
ment of tools and stock. The article
is profusely illustrated, one of the
pictures showing a plan for a five
acre farm.

Do You Eat Food?

The Detroit Times felicitates it's
readers upon the opportunity We shall
all have of reading series OF articles
dealing with food, and tine relation or
food to the human body, written by
no less person than DR.. Harvey w.
Wiley, the great champion OF the
people in the war against the adulter-
alton of the things We all eat and
drink
The study of food is interesting
becoming more interesting every day
By this study We learn what foods are
best for each individual, from the
cradle to the grave; for the rich man,
poor man, laborer, loiterer; for tie
i'll and healthy. 1t is most profitable
study, not alone, that in the end
weeks. months and years may be add
ed to our lives. but that in the so
doing we may adopt methods OF peck
etbook economy founded upon the
proper balancing of rations----==
For centuries man has asked the
question: Can people be fed for par
ticular functions of life?" Learned
scientists have delved deep into that
problem, hoping TO evolve from n cor
rect solution a perfect race. Dr.
Wiley gives the answer in today's ar
ticle, the first OF the most compre'
hensive, popular analysis OF food and
its relation TO the human body and
health ever published, and which Is
printed exclusively in Detroit in The
Times.
