The attempt to canonize Charles l

but a martyrdom for the Anglican
church and for parliamentary gov

the king merely met the just deserts

date of his execution, Jan. 30. was
set apart for observances and ser

STRICKEN FAMILIES
SELL THEIR CHILDREN

Peking, May 25.-A Reuters
telegram from Kweiyang states that
"the Canton traders continue to car
ry on a traffic in women and girls,
who are taken through the Tatangh-
sien district to Canton. !"
Conditions of poverty are so in
tense that it is a custom throughout
the country for parents to sell chill
dren, either boys or girls, when they
are unable to support them. AS
rule, the parents of child can oO-
tain a number of dollars, according
to the childs age; but in famine dis
tricts, where poverty is increased,
prices have run to below so cents
per child. In the large cities, how
ever, to which the traders from the
interior bring the children for SALE
the price may run up. for strong
and. good-looking girl in her teens
to over $50.

Tallahassee, May 25.-The naval
stores inspection bill passed the SEN
ate Saturday, and in the future all
naval store products will be inspect
ed before they leave the state,
which, large turpentine dealers say,
will be of great benefit to that in
dustry in the state of Florida. At
present practically all of the naval
stores products are sent to Savan-
nah. where a State inspector under
the Georgia law makes the inspec-
ion. There has been much dissatis-
faction expressed over this condi-
tion. a cost of approximately Sc pei
car being charged to the Florida
producer. If the State of Georgla
refuses to recognize the Florida in
spection and allow the naval stores
to enter Savannah without tn
charges now placed on such PROD
ucts, then Florida ports will be use'
for export, Fernandina coming II
for a goodly share.

Tallahassee, May 25.-rhe House
of Representatives has passed bill
to cancel all tax certificates held by
the State against any property
which was issued prior to 1901. The
bill is believed to have fair chance
in the Senate.
The bill to permit cities of the
State to change their charters with
out asking fer special acts of the
Legislature occupied almost the
whole day in the Senate Saturday,
and it is believed will pass today.
When this measure becomes a law,
ii will only be necessary for any
charter changes to be submitted to
the people of the town effected, and
an affirmative vote of the taxpayers
will settle these questions. This will
eliminate what has become great
burden to every session of tn Flor
ida Legislature, since 90 per cent
of all bills introduced have been
local bills making changes in thei?
charters.
