STRANGE POSITION OF
 DUTCH MINISTER AT
 THE COURT OF MOROCCO

Tangier, Morocco, May 31.-Be- cause of a diplomatic unwtI1ingness to offend Mohammedan prejudices the Dutch minister here finds himself the embarrassed guardian and protector of four eunuchs. The eunuchs were of the household of ex-Sultan MOu- ley Haf1d, but becoming discontented with his treatment of them, they quietly packed up and left.
 Having heard that the foreign lega- ton premises were foreign territory, they got into the garden of the Dutch legation, and there, secure by reason of height of walls and diplomatic in- violability, they asked to see the Min ister, before whom they pronounced the sacred formula which obliges every man in Mussulman countries to grant hospitality and protection.
 Thus the Chevalier de Rappard, the Netherlands Minister became, accord ing to the traditions of the Koran, the host and protector of these four Moors. He had to provide them with lodging and food and defend them against their enemies. They became by the same rules members of his household and must serve him to the best of their ability. The diplo- mat is placed in a curious quandary, and has consulted the Moroccan Gov ernment as to the best course for him to take. Meanwhile he is giving shei- ter to, the sunuchs, who profess a de- sire to spend their lives in his service.

SEEK TO AMEND
 NEW SUNDAY ACT
Legislature Likely to Try to Change Bill That Makes Blue
 Laws Pale

Hartford, May 31-One of the first things which may be done in the leg isIature on Monday morning is the ac- tion on a committee bill which will amend at once the Sunday law which was passed by both Houses and which has been signed by the governor. It is the stiffest Sunday law in the coun- try and 1t is a fact that the 1egis- lators thought they were opening up Sunday.
 Some idea of the blue law charac- ter of the law may be gained from the of all kinds strictly prohibited ex- cept amateur sports and concerts on public parks in the afternoon as per mitted by the park commissioners or park committee but all persons who attend band concerts may be fined not more than $4
 The proba bilities are that an act will be introduced in the Senate or House on Monday amending the act SO as to make it less stringent.
 This is the first section of the bill:
 Every person who shall do any se- cular business or labor, except works any shop warehouse, or manufactur- ing or mechanical establishment or expose any property for sale, or en- gaze in any sport between 12 o'clock Saturday night, and 12 o'clock Sunday night, except as provided in Section 2 of this act, shall be fined not more than $50.
 The section goes on to allow the service of any criminal or civil sum mons or injunction, except between sunrise and sunset on Sunday. Sec

The recent mention by the Board
of Mayor and Aldermen Of the posi-
BILE annexation of certain outlying SUI
burbs OF the city of Columbia start
ed discussion by the public that has
eliminated In the circulation Of petit
tons.
These petitions are in the hands of
those opposed to the annexation ind
are being signed rather freely in Riv.
erside and on Southside. The peti.
TONERS on Riverside are not bitterly
opposed to the annexation with but
few exceptions, though many of them
say they are not yet ready, that they
realize that it is only a matter of only
few years when they will become q
part Of the corporation of the city
proper. At present Riverside has the
benefits of city water, and should
that attractive suburb of the city be
come part Of the corporation, lher
the light service would be extended
and the water plugs would be locat
ed for the use of the hose as pro
lection against fire. And these same
conveniences would be extended tc
the other suburbs under discussion il
case of annexation or an extension oil
the city limits.
A petition on Southside, including
the Highland Park addition has beer
in circulation and it is reported thai
a large majority of the residents Of
that section have signed against the
extension proposition.
So far nothing has been heard oil
any action being taken in West Enc
or on East Hill.
The board has never given any init
nation that anything but the wishes
of majority of the parties affected
will be complied with. In fact, the
members have given repeated ;tssur
ance that that is exactly what woulG
be done, Notwithstanding the fact
that it has the power to reach out and
take in these sections regardless oil
the wishes Of the residents.
The agitation was started simply
for the purpose of obtaining the senti
ment of the people, believing thai
these sections ought to be part anG
parcel of the city proper, obtaining
the advantages of the school, the wa
ter and the lights.
