SAN"FKANCISCO , April 26 1 a. m.
Information just received ' from Jap
an makes" It probable .that tha long-
smouldering discontent between Jap
anese and Chinese statesmen m y ere
long burst forth in a flimo of war.
When the controversy between the
governments with respect to the own
ership and occupation of Lew Kew
island arose sometime ago , tlio Jap
anese were very firm , and insisted on
what they claim ts their rights. They
were at that moment in the belief that
China was on the eve of war with
Ruuh , and they thought they would
not cjra to bo embroiled in two wars
at the same "lima. The Chinese an-
thoilties mido fair promises , and ix
postponement of the quarrel was ef-
feclei until n few weeks ago , -when
.thoJapiEesa c mmlssioner -Pekin
begin agvn to urge the claims of their
government. , By'ihVtime alllmme-
diate d ugor of , war with Russia was
passed. China his at present her army
.m an - excepttoarliy good condition ,
and her navy , which is far stronger
than ever , Is ready for immediate and
effective action. When the Japanese
commissioner pressed their claims re
cently nt Pekin they were answered
in a very different' tone from tha
which the Mandarins had previously
used , aud were in effect told that the
Chiut8.J did not.caro to ba longer an
noyed by th.rn They reported the
icsult to their own governtnaut , and
a Japanosa mvi of war has been sent
to bring them home. Ic is now said
in Yokshima that the government of
the M'kido will submit no longer to
thj insolence of the Chinese Manda
rins and th it eels uf war may soon be
expected to occur.

BELL , Neb , April 22 One year
ago a station was established on the
L. & N. W. railwayln Butler county ,
known as Belltrood. The postoffico
department hri shortened the name
to Bell , and that is now tha name of
the place. The town , is named in
honor of J. D. Ball , proprietor of the
town site , aud a leading citizen. Mr.
Bell is a lover of trees , and has plant
ed over one hundred acres of fruit
and forest trees , and rot h'a work con
tinues. This year he h planting
Catalpa , ash , box elder walnut , apple
and plum treoj. He has 1500 acres of
laud in the vicinity. His neighbors ,
also , many of whom are from Branch
county , Mich. , have planted fine
groves , and the place was propsrly
named Bellwocd.
Bell is veiy beautifully situated on
the high fiat three miles south of the
Platte river. It is surrounded by ex
cellent farming land , and possesses
advantages for manufacturing.
Liberal Inducements are offered for
the establishment of each of the fol
lowing enterprises : A grist mill , paler -
