WAR TO THE FINISH.
Meaning of Failure China's Pcaoe
Overtures.
London, Oct. 10.—The Times has
this despatch from its Tien-Tsin cor
respondent: "In an imperial edict is
sued from Pekin the government as
sumes full responsibility for the pro
tection of foreigners and denounces
rowdyism. It orders the punishment
of several culprits who assaulted trav
elers and assures strangers that their
persons and property will be protected.
It especially favors the missionaries.
"Japan having rejected China's peace
overtures without a hearing, the war
now will enter upon a chronic stage,
demanding an appeal to the latent
forces of China. The government is
prepared, although reluctant to en
gage in a protracted conflict. The
party in power recognize, however, the
urgency of radical military and fiscal
reforms. The important question is,
'How long can the national cohesion
bear the strain of a great war?* There
is danger of a revolution which might
be followed by prolonged anarchy.
"The Pel-Yang squadron was not
docked, but has been completely re
fitted, however, and the magazines
have been filled."
J a panose Politics.
London, Oct. 16.—A dispatch from
Tokio says an imperial rescript
has been issued convoking the
Japanese parliament in extra session
at Hiroshina. The session is to last
seven days and Is for the purpose of
discussing matters connected with the j
existing war which require parlia
mentary sanction. At the time of the
last parliament the various leaders
were at swords points, but the war
has healed all differences and brought
the factions together, and efforts are
making to have all the parties and
factions represented In the new cabi
net. None of the portfolios is vacant,
but it is proposed to create new cabi
net offices In order to secure the co
operation of the former opposition
leaders. Among those urged for the
new offices are the most active leaders
of the parties which were opposed to
the government prior to the war. 1
These include Count Chuma, Count
Itagaki, Count Matsukata and Vis
count Shinagawa.
China Did Not Seek Peace.
London, Oct. 16.—The Daily News has
a dispatch from Tien-Tsin saying that
China made no proposals of peace to
Japan, and hence the report of their
rejection is untrue.
Honors to Strauss.
Vienna, Oct. 16. —The celebration of
the Strauss jubilee was continued by
a grand reception, at which the com
poser received a number of deputations
and an immense gathering of indi
vidual callers. The reception began
with a serenade by a chorus of pupils
from the conservatoire, after which
the visitors were presented to the
waltz king. The intendant of the im
perial theatres, the burgomaster of
Vienna, the presidents of the various
musical, literary and art societies, the
directors of the Vienna theatres and
many others read addresses and pre
sented gifts to the composer. Among
the presents was a magnificent wreath
of sterling silver, presented by Mr.
Rudolph Aronson on behalf of the
American committee of which Mr.
Aronson is the head, and whose object
it was to provide a suitable testimonial
on the occasion of his jubilee. The
wreath, which is sixteen inches in di
ameter, has fifty leaves, on each of
which is engraved the name of one of
of Strauss' compositions. This mag
nificent offering excited the admiration
of all present. In his presentation
speech Mr. Aronson dwelt upon the
value of Strauss' music to the masses,
Its brightness, its melody, its dancing
tempo, etc. To no composer, dead or
alive, said Mr. Aronson, have so many
hundreds of thousands of terpsi
chorean devotees in America danced as
to the entrancing strains of the waltz
king. Mr. Aronson's remarks were
loudly applauded.
Herr Strauss in response said that
he owed everything to his predecessors,
and above all to his father, who
showed him the way to musical prog
ress. especially in the sphere of dance
music. "My feeble merit," he said,
"having only taken an enlarged form
and broadened preceding methods, I
feel that you do me too much honor.
I am no orator. I have spoken
enough."
The applause and cries of "hoch"
which followed the composer's remarks
lasted several minutes.

SOME MONEY UP.
Fasti Slowly Superceding Eloquence
and Literature.
New York, Oct. 10. —Captain Glori,
Bob Fitzsiinmons' manager, has post
ed SI,OOO, making the first instalment
of Fitzsimmons' stake of SIO,OOO com
plete. Fitzsiinmons' original SI,OOO,
which he posted with the Hemld, was
turned over to Philip J. Dwyer, the
stake-holder, last Thursday. The next
deposit of $2,500 is due on December 1.
Although Captain Glori posted the
money promptly he absolutely refused
to sign the articles of agreement so
long as the clause in regard to the
Police Gazette championship belt was
allowed to remain. Captain Glori
pointed out that the belt had to be
won three times before becoming the
absolute property of the winner. "Cor
bett," said Glori, "has never fought
for the belt before in his life, and a
reference to the articles of agreement
of tlie Corbett-Sulllvan and Corbett-
Mitchell fights will prove what I say.
Notwithstanding all this, Richard K.
Fox proposes to give it to Corbett if
he defeats Fitzsimmons, while if the
latter beats the champion he cannot
claim the trophy. Fitzsimmons, like
Sullivan, has no use for the dog-collar,
and he won't fight for it. This is final.
If Corbett wants to make an agree
ment to fight for it he can do so, but
no mention will be allowed to go in
the articles of agreement."
Captain Glori drew up new articles
of agreement and signed them, and a
copy will be sent to Corbett. In the
new articles, which Captain Glori
signed, no reference is made to the
belt in dispute, and the stipulations in
regard to the selection of a referee and
the size of the gloves have been mod
ified to read as follows:
"The contest shall be under the
Marquis of Queensberry rules; the
gloves shall be of five ounce weight;
the other details of the contest shall
be left to the decision of the Florida
Athletic club. The club shall name the
referee, but he must be satisfactory to
both principals. Should either party
fail to comply with these articles, the
money then in the hands of the
stake-holder shall be forfeited to the
party which shall have fulfilled his
obligations according to this agree
ment."
POISONED FOlt MONEY.
Two Sisters Indicted for the Murder
of Their Brother.
Bullston, N. Y., Oct. 16. —Katherine
and Elizabeth Nolan of Waterford, sis
ters, aged 22 and 17 years old respec
tively, were arraigned in oyer and
terminer on an indictment charging
thein Jointly with murder in the first
degree, in having on June 8, 1894, ad
ministered arsenic to their brother
John Nolan, with intent to cause his
death that they might obtain and share
a policy of insurance issued by one of
the low-priced assessment companies
on his life in which they were named
as beneficiaries. He died June 13 from
such poison as was determined by an
autopsy made by direction of Coroner
Stubbs. A drug clerk testified before
the coroner's and grand juries to hav
ing sold one of the sisters arsenic Just
before that date. The father, mother
and a sister of the Nolans had died
within tliis preceding eight months on
all of whose lives they held similar in
surance policies that were paid before
John's death. C. E. Keach, counsel
for the prisoners, demurred to the in
dictment and also moved that it be
quashed on affidavits setting forth
that the evidence before the grand jury
did not present sufficient facts to war
rant that the sisters be held for trial.
Justice Stover overruled the demurrer
and denied the motion to quash. Mr.
Keach then entered pleas of not guilty
for each of his clients and asked that
a date be fixed at this term for their
trial. District Attorney Person opposed
on the ground that the attendance of
necessary witnesses for the people
could not be obtained at this term.
On his motion the cases were put over
till the January oyer.

LITERARY NOTES.
ONLY one of George Meredith's books
has thus far been translated Into a
foreign language. This is "The Ordeal
of Richard Feverel," which has ap
peared in Italian.
A NOVEL series which is to be brought
out In London will bo cnllod the "Pio

"with the development of the New
Woman." The title of the first storj'
will be "Joanna Traill, Spinster."
MR. STANLEY J. WBYMAN has com

dealing with the period of Ilenry of
Navarre. They are to be called "From
the Diary of a Minister," and will bo

A NEW monthly publication, Science
Progress, has made its appearance in

HOME HINTS.
TOOTH powder is an excellent cleaner
of fine filigree jewelry.
TIIE fumes of a brimstone match will
remove berry stains from the fingers;
or still better, use a little lemon Juice
or ripe tomato.
A LITTLE alcohol will do wonders in
brightening glass. Turpentine is ex
cellent for washing sinks which have
become dull and dirty.
IN a long experience I have found
nothing that will clean brass so easily,
quickly and satisfactorily as a paste
called puty-pomade. It comes in small
tin boxes and can be had of leading
grocers.
RUBBER rings such as are used on
fruit cans, often becomo hard and
brittle. They can be restored by let
ting them lie in water in which you
have put a little ammonia. Mix in this
proportion: One part ammonia and
two parts water. Sometimes they do
not need to lie in this more than five
minutes, but frequently a half hour is
needed to restore their elasticity.
SHORT SERMONS.
WORKING without a plan is a waste
of strength.
MEN are often gainers when they
lose their money.
IT costs less to be contented than it
does to be unhappy.
Too MANY people would rather have
glory than goodness.
IT is much easier to bo contented
without wealth than it is with it.
THERE aro too many people who
don't know what giving means by ex
perience.
A COUNTERFEIT is always proclaiming
at the top of its voice that there is a
genuine.
IT is a bad moral atmosphere where
vulgarity passes for wit and humor,
and men are entertained by it.—Ram's
Horn.
When tho Trouble Began*
"Did you see the beginning of the
trouble?" asked the judge of a witness
against a man who had struck his

"Yes, sir; I saw the very commence
ment of the difficulty. It was about

"Two years ngo?"
"Yes, sir. The minister said: 'Will
you take this man to be your lawful
husband?'and she said: T will.'—Aleil

The record made for the season is a
very good one, considering the class of
clubs they played against in the majority
of games. Much credit for the success
belongs to Jas. B. Ferry, who managed
the club the greater part of the season,
and to John J. McGarvey, who was
captain. They were assisted by the
members of the Tigers Athletic Club,
who control the ball club and park.
The very liberal patronage of the public
was also an important factor in helping
the management to give the town a sea
son of good base ball.

For Bome time past workmen have
been at work cleaning out the old Hart
ford mine at Ashley, which is situated
near a handsome new school building
and which lias not been worked for over
forty years. In the completion of the
work'a tour of the mine was made and
it was found that an old gangway was
directly under the building and separ
ated from the cellar floor by only a few
feet.
The discovery caused much surprise
and the taxpayers fear that the $20,000
invested in the building is practically a
loss.
