CHINESE MARTYRS.

News has Just come from Ichang
that twenty-nine Chinese Catholics
have been put to death by group
of fanatical Chinese under a self
styled "Ta Han King" or the
Heavenly Son of the Ia Han dy-
nasty.
The massacre took place in a
pagan temple in Shu Sha Win, a
town on the borders of Hupeh and
Szechwan. The Christians were
dragged from their homes and
brought to the temple, where under
threat of death, they were asked to
offer incense to the Living
Buddha." They refused, and like
the early Christians, bravely gave
their blood for Him who died for
them. Three Belgian priests were
reported missing but two have been
released. AS yet nothing is known
of the third.

Lloyd George Lays Plans Before
the King and Proposals For
Submission.
Sir James Craig, Ulster Premier, Is
Coming TO London Next
Week.
CONSIDERED FAVORABLE OMEN

Events which apparently had beer
proceeding smoothly and with fail
rapidity toward a common ground
on which the British Government
the Irish Republicans and the III
sterites could find a basis for a set,
Element of the troubles in ireland
fell. into lull Tuesday and for the
moment the negotiations, both off.
eial and private, have ceased.
With Sir James Craig, the Ulster
Premier, again in Belfast, having
before his departure from London
delivered a announcement which
seemed at the time to spell the end
of discussion between the three
parties, the English people are try
ing to figure out what eventually
will happen with respect to Ulster,
and more particularly with respect
to the whole of Ireland, at the next
conference between Premier David
Lloyd George and Eamonn de
Valera, set for Thursday.
The meeting between Eamonn de
Valera and Premier Lloyd George
will probably be their last before
the return of the South Ireland del
egates TO Dublin. Following their
return to ireland meeting of the
Irish Republican Parliament will in
all likelihood be convened to give
the Republican leader an oppor-
tunity to report and take fresh
counsel on the new compilations
which the Downing street parleys
may have placed upon the old ques-
TOMS and to formulate policy re-
speeding such issues as may have
originated during these talks.
The British Cabinet sat for two
hours and half Wednesday even
ing considering the Irish plans,
after which Premier David Lloyd
George went to Buckingham Palace
and laid before the King, whose
interest in an Irish settlement is the
keenest, the proposals for submits

Republican leader, at tomorrow's
The Prime Minister
presided at the Cabinet council,
which was held in the House of
Commons and outlined for the benz
eft of those Ministers who had not
been considered closely concerned in
the Irish negotiations. the history of
recent events end the Premier's new
OFFER to Ireland, which is described
as being drawn on generous lines.
II is understood that the fnan-
cial arrangements in the new offer
have given considerable trouble to
the Ministers, but eventually. after
with Sir Robert Steven

to. 1t is also understood that the

the House of Commons, Sir Robert
Horne Sir Lamdng Worthington
Evans, Secretary for War, and other
Ministers, and that probably, with
some notifications the entire Cab
met will assent to the proposals,
which will be reduced to writing for
presentation to Mr.. de Valera.
Whether Lloyd George has sue
ceeded In overcoming the reluctance
Of Sir James Craig, the Ulster Pre-
mier, TO join in q tripa-tite confer
'ence is not known, but an Announce
ment that Sir James is coming to
London again, probably next week,
is considered favorable omen, and
in any case no hint of a breakdown
in the negotiations is apparent.
These, however, may be more pro-
tracted than had been generally ex-
pected. General Jan Christian
SHUTS, Premier of South Africa, is
holding himself in readiness to go
to Ireland again, If needed
Mr. de Valera gave a reception
Tuesday which was attended by
members and executives of the va
rious Irish organizations in Great
Britain.
The probability of a meeting in
Belfast between Eamonn de Valera
and Sir James Craig, Ulster Pre-
mier. was foreshadowed in some
political quarters and several news
papers Wednesday morning. The
British Cabinet will give special
consideration to the Irish question,
and it is believed that the afore-
mentioned proposals will be dis
cussed at great length, and that
they are likely to receive the APP
prevail of the entire Ministry. On
the other hand there still are per-
sistent rumors that the Cabinet is
not altogether harmonious, although
definite expressions to this effect
are not obtainable.
,Stanch Unionist members of the
British Parliament are reported to
be increasingly nervous respecting
the progress of Irish affairs, and
1t is known that about forty of
them met privately to discuss their
positions. AS they lacked inside
knowledge respecting the negotia-
lions, however, they refrained from
reaching any decision as to the
action they would take.
The basis for a conference to at
tempt a settlement of the Irish
question has not yet been found, it
was announced in Che official COM
issued after the conference
between Eamonn de
Valera and Premier Lloyd George,
who have been comforting with the
object of finding such a basis. Pres
Ident de Valera and his colleagues,
adds the commnuique, will return to
Dublin Friday and will communi- I
cate with Lloyd George after fur
Their discussion with his followers
here
De Valera remained with the
Premier until 1895 O'Clock, The
leader was chatting and
smiling as he came out, and II
seemed to the crowd awaiting his
appearance that he was pleased with
lis interview. When President de
Valera returns to Dublin after
conference with Lloyd
George, the prevailing opinion in
london is that he will carry a bulky
document in which Ireland will be
,ffered dominion home rule within
he British Empire, similar to the
Government of South Africa.

LEGION HEAD DEFENDS
STACKER LIST PUBLICITY
Only Satisfactory Means of Pun
lshing Guilty and Protecting
Innocent, He Says.

INDIANAPOLIS. Ind. May ls.-A
vigorous defense of the War Depart
ments action IN giving widest pub
licity to the Stacker lists is contained
in letter from F. w Galbraith. jr,
national commander of the American
Legion. forwarded today to COM
manders of the legions forty-eight
departments.
Publication of the lists in newspa-
pers all over the United States is the
only satisfactory means of protect
ing the innocent and Furnishing the
guilty" Mr.. Galbraith declared. He
added he hoped the newspapers would
take the view that they will. in pub
fishing the names. aid in clearing
veterans enormously branded slackers
as well as assure punishment OF lhc
guilty.
That the Stacker lists contain
names of men who honorably served
their country in the time of it's
greatest peril only strengthens the
conviction that the lists should be
given the widest publicity" the letter
said. For half a century after the
civil war thousands of veterans ap-
plying for pensions were found to he
enormously listed as deserters. and
much embarrassment and hardship
resulted. The same situation will
arise unless the present lists are
cleared immediately"

.CALOMEL GOOD
BUT TREACHEROUS
Next Dose may Salivate, Shock
Liver or Attack Your
Bones

You know what calomel is. It's
mercury; quicksilver. Calomel Is
dangerous. 1t crashes into sour
bile like dynamite, cramping and
.sickening you. Calomel attacks the
bones and should never be put into
your system.
If you feel bilious. headachy,
constipated and all knocked out,
just go to your druggist and get
bottle of Dodson's Liver Tone for
a few cents which is a harmless
vegetable substitute for dangerous
calomel. Take a spoonful and If
1t doesn't start your liver and
straighten you up better and
quicker than nasty calomel and
without making you sick. you just
go back and get your money.
Don't take calomel! 1t makes
you sick the next day; it loses you
days work. Dodson's Liver Tone
straightens you right UP and you
feel great. No salts necessary.
Give it to the children because 1t
is perfectly harmless and can not
salivate.
