JAPANESE DO NOT
MISTREAT AMERICANS

TOKIO-(By A. P.)-The Associ-
ated Press has received the following
communication from the Internation-
al Friendship Committee of the Fed
eral Missions of Japan which in
cludes the majority of the American
missionary bodies:
Learning that some home news
papers are stating that Americans in
Japan are being mistreated by Jap
anese, inquiries were sent to Ameri-
can residents, including men connect
ed with well-known business firms
and missionaries who travel extern
sively over the Empire. Thirty-five
replies were received from twenty
four cities and towns in all sections
of Japan.
ITO the question, During the past
few months, have any Americans
known to you been mistreated by the
japanese? Thirty three answered
with a positive No. Two mention
minor incidents, one adding, Where
occasion has been given for friendly
explanation all friction has disap-
peared.' The other says, No harm
done. Probably unprecedented
One man sends telegram from an
extreme outpost, Only kind treat
ment.' In reply to personal inquiry
the American Consul General in Yo-
kohoma said that we might use the
strongest words in the English Ian
guage in denying the foundation for
rumors regarding mistreatment of
Americans.
"In reply to the question, How do
conditions in this respect compare
with those of the past?' twenty eight
state that there is no change, many
taking occasion to refer to the cordial
treatment they have received through
out their stay in Japan. Three state

Strange Goinos on in New Jersey
Traced to Naphtha From
Wrecked Car Tank.

Trenton.-TO the wreck of rail-
road freight train and the consequent
dumping of an 8,0O0-gallon tank OF
naphtha the authorities of Roelofs,
Pa, are beginning to trace number
OF mysterious events. A death, seri-
GUS Illness, the poisoning Of streams
and wells, the prostration of cows
and other cattle, and the fact that
neither humans nor chickens ever
wake up earlier than 10 a. Nall
these things are being charged to the
accident.
Rumors that the town of Roelofs
was suffering from new form OF
sleeping sickness and that household
furnishings were falling apart from
disuse and that wall paper on at least
three houses was beginning to peel
off have been brought to Trenton from
time to time. 1t was not until recent
" that the matter was taken serious
ly and made the subject of an investi-
CATION by persons living here.
The wreck Of the train dumped

naphtha flowed into a pool on the

TAYL0R'S HOUN' DAWG
Governor of Tennessee Will Keep
Famous Animal at Home.
Would Veto Proposition for Appropri-
alton to Build Home for "Old
Timber" on Mansion Grounds.

Nashville.-Old Timber the only dog
whose yelp was ever heard in po-
litical campaign in Tennessee, has not
been tempted from his familiar haunts
in the Happy valley vicinity by the
bright lights of the capital, at which
his master, Gov. ALI Taylor, is pre-
siding
Reports that the Democratic legis-
lature contemplated making an appro-
priation on the mansion grounds for
house for Old Timber, have led his
master to announce that he will
promptly veto such proposition, and
keep Old Timber at home.
Old Timber furnished much mate
rial for Governor Taylor's speeches
during his campaign. The governor
always gave graphic recital of Old
Limbers prowess as fox hunter.
"Old Timber is being well cared for
in a good home in east Tennessee and
gets three square meals day." is the
last word from the governor on the
subject. "He would not be contented
in the city. He wants to be where he
can occasionally survey the lofty
mountains over whose heights he has
many times chased the fox with the
rest of the pack making music at his
heels. Old Timber is nine years old,
and Is too old to rul but he re-
members and often dr. ..ns of his past
achievements"

INDIAN WOMEN SEEK VOTE
Penobscot Squaws Demand Snare ~
Tribal Elections and Conduct
of Affairs.

Old Town, Me-Indian women OF
the Penobscot tribe started on tne
warpath to obtain the right to vote IN
the tribal elections and share ID Tue
conduct of reservation affairs. Already
some forward-looking squaWs nave
nailed the suffrage colors to the ng-
urative totem pole, with the assertion
that grand lady Sachem would make
q wiser chief than any brave that ever
woye basket or built a canoe.
The new women of an ancient people
began rejoicing recently when they re-
ceived a ruling from Attorney zen
eral Shaw that they could go as ia'
rs the tribe allowed, for the stat'
would remain neutral. He said tn
tribal suffrage was entirely a matte'
far domestic adjustment. The RUM

IF you have never heard Old Lin
Der in full cry" the governor contin-
ues, growing more eloquent, 'you have
never heard music. He is gifted in
every note, and in chase, at one
time or another, he will let you have
all Of them. You could distinguish
Old Limber's voice from, the rest of
the pack eight miles away. Honest!
That dog never lied to me in his
life. He has never been known to
yelp on cold trail. Whenever the
voice Of Old Timber is heard, every
body knows that there is a fox
around"
The governors east Tennessee home
place boasts not only "Old Limber,"
the most famous hound dog in Ten
nessee, but also son, who has taken
his place as pack leader, and a grand
son as well.

naphtha poisoning and Mrs. FREQ >.
Jackson was stricken with stomach
trouble. The cows on Jackson's place
collapsed in the barns and slept for
whole days at time. At the same
time the chickens quit laying and re-
NAMED asleep, refusing to pay atten-
ton to the yelps of the Jackson dog'
who had rolled in the gas naphtha
pond and almost frozen to death as
the LIQUID evaporated from his hloe.
1t was learned by the Investigators
from Trenton that every inhabitant OF
Roelofs has been unconscious goou
part Of the time and that In lucia
moments the authorities were TOO
stupefied by naphtha fumes to attempt
to ferret out the cause Of the trouble.
