Peculiarly Mean swIndEer.

An elderly man has Just been ar
rested in Berlin, Germany, who had
won quite a reputation as swlndler
OF widows. He was IN the habit Of
visiting the cemeteries and bringing
himself under the notice Of widows
who had come to weep over their hus-
bands graves. He would engage q
bereaved woman in conversation and
then pour forth to her his sorrow over
the recent loss Of 4 Is own wife. Ac-
quaintanceshirs begun In this way in
variably grew into friendships. and
that resulted in a proposal Of mar.
rage from the "widower" to the
widow The man would then borrow
a sum Of money from his future bride,
or pawn some Of her late husbands
possessions and disappear. Some doz.
ems Of widows have been defrauded
by him.

 Admittedly, the note couched in gentle terms, but honeyed words and smooth phrases do not disguise its real purport, which, we relterate, is an unjustihable interference in the internal affairs of this country. The fact that 1t has been presented at the eleventh hour imparts unmistakable verisimilitude to this view. If any season could be found justiiying this intervention, it existed one month or two months ago, but after the assur ance from the civil and military gov ernors Of all the provinces published ten days ago. that law and order pre- vailed there is little excuse for this intermeddling.
 The advice that the change eS postponed may be well inteutioned but it is extremely embarrassing. Tho president having put bis hand to th' plough cannot turn back. If he did he would be assailed for betraying hi' country and having failed to uphold

 The Picking Daily News, which is the avowed organ Of the government, has this to say concerning the re. fusal of Secretary Lansing to coop crate with Japan: "A telegram which we published yesterday concerning America and the interventation of Japan in regard to the proposed change in the form of government in China is worthy of more than pass ing notice. Powers that are occupied in the expressing task of war have little leisure 10 devote to diplomatic nicetes. America is one great power that has the good fortune not be di- rectly concerned in the war, and con sequently the American state depart ment has been able to give to the Japanese suggestion to interference with China's domestic concerns more attention than was apparently paid by either of the Entente powers. A a result, MT Lansing on behalf of his government informed Baron Chinda the Japanese minister at Washington that America would not tae part ir

 "The most importance of this ac- ton on the part of America is not Hely to be overlooked by China Had America acquiesced in bringing pres sure to bear upon Shina at this crit ical moment any country that was bent upon predatory adventure under the never-failing guise of maintaining the peace of the Far East would have been encouraged As it is, America is evidently watching events with very close attention, a fact that may be disquieting to others, but is a source of comfort and encouragement to China"
 The News expresses it's resentment of the Japanese representations in the following terms:
 However well meant interference may be. 1t invariably savers of med ding. intermeddling perhaps, and even the best of motives cannot atone for an unwarrantable action The note verbal presented by Mir Obata the Japanese charge d'anairs, convey | ing warnings and advice to the Chi nese government cannot be regarded other than as gratuitous, constituting
