PLANS TO SUBOUE
 PANAMA INDIANS

Panama, June 22.-In' order that the rebellious Indians of the San Bias coast shall be made to recognize the authority of the Panama. Government President Porras proposes to prevent any of the outlaw districts from trading with outsiders. He has is- sued a decree which practically makes it 8 felony for anyone to trade with certain @hdian villages. A heavy fine is imposed for the first offense while a fine and jail sentence is imposed for the second.
 President PorFas recently visited Che San Blase coast for the purpose of inaugurating his scheme of govern nent monopoly in the trade of that section of Panama and to insure the collection of import and export duties. Most of the Indian chiefs have recog- n4zed the overIordship of the presi- dent of Panama, but there are num- Der of them who consistently refuse to barley with the Great White-C Chief and declared their intention of having nothing to do with the government of Panama. These chiefs and their ci1lages are to be isolated if the Pres fdent's plan works.
 In number of villages the presi- dent found the Colombian flag still flying, the Indians declaring they have never even heard of the establishment of Republic of Panama These were pulled down promptly and the Panama flag substituted.

TURKS OPEN FIRE
 ON OWN AIRSHIPS IN C0NSTANTINOPLE

Athens, June 22.-Two Turkish
 aerop1anes that recently flew over
 Constantinop1e were mistaken for
 Russian by the Turks, who opened up
 a brisk gun fire that brought down both machines and killed two of the army's best aviators.
 According to other accounts brought to Athens by travellers, the people of Constantinople are in an excited state of mind. At the beginning of the war they were entirely confident. But the arrival of the first wounded from the Dardane1les proved painful l surprise. The people had gathered at the docks to see, they expected, bands of British and French prison CTS landed. Instead, they saw thous-
 ands of their own wounded. A dem 1 onstration against the war, led large 1 ly by women, followed in front of the | war office, but was dispersed. Constantinople's hospitals are now | crowded with wounded, who receive
 scant care. Turks lack doctors,
 nurses, gauge bandages and medical supplies and the hospitals are prirn- itive in their arrangements and san | itation.
 Noise of the big guns in the Oar | danelles zone can be heard in the cap- | ital, and at night the distant flashes of | search lights can be seen.

Kings Pay Respects
 To Prince Warrior

Paris, June 22.-The Crown-Prince of Germany, who was at Varennes during the battle of the Marne and was obliged to retire on the approach of the French, established his head quarters at Stehay, a town of 2,OOo inhabitants on the Mouse, and. ac- cordtng to news brought from be- hind the German lines by expelled in habitants returning to France by way of Switzerland, he is still there
 Many il1ustfious visitors have been received at his headquarters. His father, the emperor, it is said, has been there ten times. The Kings of Saxony, Bavaria and Wurtemburg have each been there to pay their res poets, and the Crown Princes mother has visited him once. A great many other people attached to the court have been among the visitors. The Crown Prince, it is said, takes a horse back ride every morning, going always in the same direction and returning by motor. He strolls round the town, frequently unattended, conversing with the inhabitants, batting children be- nevo1ent1y on the head and distribut- ing compliments profusely.

CHINA TO CHANGE
 MILITARY FORCES

Picking, June 22-China's military forces are to be remodeled from top to bottom As a first step, arms of -the line regiments are to be unified.
 A most important conference has just been held at the winter palace, the residence of Yuan-Shi-kai. There were present, in addition to the pres 1dent and his cabinet and the highest ranking military and naval officers, several of the most influential Chinese not officially connected with the gov ernment.
 Problems of national defence were touched upon in a. brief speech by the president who made it clear that he regards war as the greatest among ap- parently necessary evils. His words made a deep i1npr ression upon those present, and in the discussion which followed, there was absolutely single Y11indedness in endorsing Yuan's posi- ton. The conference decided that new docks were absolutely necessary; that the arsenals must be moderniz- ed and expanded; that serving in the army must be popularized and ade- quate1y compensated; that coast de- lenses must be established. and where obsolete or inadequate, recon structed; and that naval bases must be provided for north and south Chi 
 The principal decision, however, was that providing for the unidcation of Chinese armaInents. The six army divisions, investigation has proved, use ten or more different types of these with one style which will possess the best features of the best modern

Sir H. Rider Haggard,
 Famous Novelist,
 Begins Sixtieth Year

Sir Henry Rider Haggard, famed as the author of 'She," King Solo, mons Mines,'' and other weird and fantastic African adventure romanoes, was born in Norfolk, England, fifty nine years ago to-day. He gained the material and atmosphere for his Af- rican tales when. as a youth, he serV- ed as private secretary to the goVer- nor of Natal and the British comnais- sioner to the Transvaal. and in other capacities. Upon his return to Eng land in 1879 he began his literary ca reer, and gained international fame with the publication of King Solo, mons Mines in 1886. His novels have been almost as widely read in America as in Great Britain, and have gained for him a host of admirers on this side of the Atlantic. The au- thor's nephew, Capt. Haggard of the Welsh regiment, was killed early in
 the war. Mortally wounded by a shell, Capt Haggard with his dying
 breath urged his men to stand firm, and his last words, as recorded by a comrade. were: Stick to it, Welsh
 men!'' From his knowledge of South
 Africa, gained by his early residence
 there and later visits, Sir Rider de-
 clared early in the war that the Boers
 could be depended upon to remain
 loyal to the British crown.
 l South Africa, down to it's lowest Hottentot," he wrote last October, | ''has, I believe, but one object-to | help England to win in this vast battle | of the nations Why, even the na- l lives are sending subscriptions from
 their scanty hordes and praying to be
 allowed to throw a few stones for
 the King I do not suppose it would ! be an over-estinate to add that quite | so per cent of the Boers are loyal to England. When I travelled through
 South Africa the other day the new
 Union constitution had been working
 for a few years. and I can only say
 that was astonished at the results
 Here and there in the remoter dis | tricts, it is true, some racial feeling
 still prevailed, but taken as a whole
 this seems absolutely to have died
 away. Briton and Boer have come together in a manner for which be-
 lieve I am right in saying there is no
 precedent in the history of the world,
 after a prolonged and bitter struggle | to the death. I met most of the
 men who had been leaders of the Boars in the war. One and all pro- fessed the greatest loyalty to Eng land. Moreover, am certain that
 this was not lip loyalty, it was from the heart. Especially was impress ed by that great man, Gen. Botha 1 with whom I had several converse tions.''

TURKS ENTRENCHED
 ON SACRED MOUNT

Jerusalem, June 22-Mount Car mel, whose lower slopes have already been under French shell fire, is heav- fly entrenched by the Turks, although the mountain is sacred alike to Chris tian and Moslem. On the lower slope is situated the town of Haifa. The German consulate in the town was bornbarded by the French in re- taliation for the Germans dessecrat- ing the graves of the soldiers of Ma poleon.
 Carmel is a T1ial, or rather a group of hills. bounded on two sides by the Mediterranean and overlooking the plain of Kishon. Above the town stands the famous Carme elite monas- tery. On the summit of the Mount the German colony of Haifa, which came there sixty years ago to await the second coming of Christ, has erect ed monument to co1nmemorate tho visit of the Kaiser.
 Haifa is an important point, as il is the terminus of a branch of rail- way tapping the Hedjaz line, which crosses the desert regions between Damascus and Medina. This rail- way, spanning the Jordan river, is used by the Turks to transport Arab troops.

1.-THE NEWS A YEAR AGO."

London, June 22.-One of the news papers publishes an epftome of the news of Whitsun-week a year ago. to contrast the trivial news of that time with the stirring events of to-day. A year ago MT. Lloyd George delivered speech at Criccieth while MT. As quith was playing golf on the Holy head links. The Derby race had been run. Two suffragettes were bound over for attacking the doctor of Holloway jail with a dog whip, and another for using a hatchet on the Barta1ozzi sketch, 'Eove wound ed," at the Dore Gallery. At Ox- ford University, the honorary degree of doctor of civil law was conferred on Prince Lichnowsl1y, the German Am mbaSsadOr.
