WAR TO THE FIMOH.
Meaning of Failure China's Pcaue
London, Oct 18. —The Times has
tliis dispatch 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 -specially favors the misssionarles.
"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 van 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

Japanese Polities.
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
existing war which require parlia
mentary sanction. At the time of the
last parliament the various leaders
were at swords points, but tho war
has healed all differences and brought
tln 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
haders. Among those urged for the
new offices are the most active leaders
of the parties which were opposed to
t lie government prior to the war.
These include Count Cliuma, Count
Itagakl. Count Matsukata and Vis
count Shinagawa.
China Did Not Seek Peace.
London, Oct. 16.—The Daily News has
n 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
tlie visitors were presented to the
waltz king. The intendant of the im
perial theatres, the burgomaster of
Vi nnn, the presidents of the various
musical, literary and art societies, tho
directors of the Vienna theatres and
many others read addresses and pre
sented gifts to the composer. Among
the presents was a magnificent wreath
<>f st-rling 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 tlie 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 CP.
Cash Slowly Superceding Eloquence
and Literature.
I New York, Oct. 10.—Captain Qlori,
j Bob Fltzsimmons* manager, has post
| ed SI,OOO, making the first instalment
of Fltzsimmons' stake of SIO,OOO com
-1 pleto. Fltzsimmons' original SI,OOO,
j which he posted with the Heixild, was
turned over to Philip J. Dwyer, the
; stake-holder, last Thursday. The next
I di posit of $2,500 is due on December 1.
Although Captain Glori posted the
j 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
j absolute property of the winner. "Cor
bet t." said Glori, "has never fought
for the belt before in bis life, and a
j reference to the articles of agreement
I of the Corbett-Sullivan and Corbett-
Mitchell fights will prove what I say.
Notwithstanding till this, Richard K.
| Fox proposes to give it to Corbett if
he defeats Fltzsimmons, while if the
latter beats the champion he cannot
claim the trophy. Fltzsimmons, like
Sullivan, has no use for the dog-collar,
and he won't light 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
j the articles of agreement."
j Captain Glori drew up new articles
I of agreement and signed them, and a
copy will he sent to Corbett. In the
n .• w 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 inod
j ifled to read as follows:
"The contest shall be under the
Marquis of Queensberry rules; the
' gloves shall be of five ounce weight;
j the other details of the contest shall
be left to the decision of the Florida
I Athletic club. The club shall name the
I 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."

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

ing sold one of the sisters arsenic Just
: before that date. The father, mother
and a sister of the Nolans had died
within this 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 he
quashed on affidavits setting forth
t hat 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 Ocorge Meredith's books
has thus far been translated into a
foreign language. This is "The Ordeul
of Richard Feverel," which has ap
peared in Italian.
A NOVEL series which is to be brought
out in London will he called the "I !u
--neer," and will be concerned, it is said,
"with the development of the New
Woman." The title of the ilrst story
will be "Joanna Traill, Spinster."
Mil. STANLEY J. WEYMAN has com
pleted a series of twelve stories, all
dealing with the period of Henry of
Navarre. They are to be culled "From
the Diary of a Minister," and will bo
published in the English Illustrated
Magazine.
A NEW monthly publication, Science
Progress, has made its appearance in
London. From the names of the ed- :
itor's counselor's, announced on the
title page, and from the first table of
contents, it is evident that the maga
zine will seek to cover the most ad- i
vanced phuscsof investigation in chem- ;
istry, geology, zoology, botany and
other physical sciences.
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; i
or still better, use a little lemon Juice !
or ripe tomato.
A LITTLE alcohol will do wonders in
brightening gluss. Turpentine is ex
cellent for washing sinks which have
become dull and dirty.
IN a long experience I have found j
nothing that will clean brass so easily,
quickly and satisfactorily as ft paste
called puty-pomade. It comes in small
tin boxes and can be had of leading
grocers.
RUHDEB rings such as are used on
fruit cans, often becomo hard and
brittle. They can bo 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 aro entertained by it.—Rum's
Horn.
When the Trouble Drgau.
"Did you see the beginning of the
trouble?" asked the judge of a witness
against a man who had struck his
wife.
"Yes, sir; I saw the very commence
ment of the difficulty. It was about

"Two years ago?"
"Yes, sir. The minister said: 'Will
you take this man to bo your lawful
husband?'and she said: 4 I will.'—Aim

j 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 Jan. 11. 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.
Schoollioust? I titlerui Ificd.
For some lime past workmen have
been at work cleaning out the obi Hart
ford mine at Ashley, which is situated
near a handsome new school building
and which has not been worked for over

I it was found that an old gangway was
directly under the building and separ

The discovery caused much surprise
and the taxpayers fear that the $20,000
invested in the building is practically a
