ue ex-maaaber of parliament, whose ex
tradition from the Argentine republic
was obtained after great delay. Charges
of fracd in connection with the collapse
of tha Liberator society and other con
cerns in connection with it. The steam'
er was met off Calshot castle by a police
tug apoa which Balfour was taken
shore, surrounded by a crowd of de
tective and policemen in uniform. The
most elaborate precautions were taken
im order to prevent the public from dis
covering where the prisoner was to be
landed, as it was feared that an attempt
might be made on his life. The police
and Balfour finally reached the railroad
station at Southampton, where the lat
ter was smuggled into a first class rail
' road carriasre. tha shades of which were
r drawn down.
At Waterloo railroad station an enor-
mous crowd of people was in waiting,
attracted by the jiewsof the arrival at
Somthampton of the Tartar Prince, and
in expectation of seeing the prisoner
landed at that depot on the train from
Southampton. But Balfour and his es
cort were landed at Vauxhall railroad
station and were driven to the Bow
Street police court. The proceedings at
Bow Street were of the character usual
upon such occasions; the prisoner was
formally charged, the papers in the case
were examined and he was remanded

MONETARY CONFERENCE.
Br. Petersburg, May 6. The Jour
nal des Petersburg gays that Japan in
conformity with the advice of Russia,
France and Germany, renounces'her
claims to the possession of Feng Tien.
Berlin, Hay 6. The Japanese gov
ernment has informed the government
of Germany that in accordance with the
advice of the powera Japan has relin
quished her claim to the Liao Tung
peninsula under the treaty of Shimon
eosekL Paris, May C The Japanese minis
ter here has informed the minister of
foreign affairs, M. Hanatoux, that refer
ring to the friendly advice of France,
Russia and Germany, Japan has re
nounced its claim to the permanent pos
session of the liao Tung peninsula, in
cluding Port Arthur.
Chefoo, May 6. The warships or
several of the powers are fast assembling
here. The situation is regarded as omi
nous. Already eight Russian warships,
including three torpedo heats, have
gathered here and more are expected.
In addition, another British, French and
American and two German warships
have arrived here.
Tien Tsin, May 6. The Chinese peace
envoys have left Taku for Chefoo, where
the ratifications of the treaty of peace
arranged between China and Ja
pan are to he exchanged on Wednesday
next. It is reported that Li Hung Chang
has been degraded.
China Has Battled.
Washington, May 6. An official
cable to a different quarter gives decisive
information that the emperor of China
has ratified the treaty. The informa
tion is so positive as to be beyond ques
tion. It clears up many contradictory
statements from unofficial sources as to
whether the emperor had or had not
ratified. A press dispatch from Yoko
hama today says that China's ratifica
tion is still in doubt. All this doubt is
put at rest, however, by the authorita
tive information reaching Washington.
The ratification of the Chinese emperor
brings China and Japan to a final ac
cord, so that it remains only for Japan
to settle with Russia and other protest
ing powers. It also make certain that
the armistice, which runs until Wednes
day the same day as the ratification
will not be followed by a Japanese ad
vance on Peking.
Outbreak In Nicaragua.
Tegucigalpa, May C Fighting ha3
begun in Granada, Nicaragua. Disor
der is reported from Leon also. Word .
comes from there that the followers ot
Ortiz, Cercula and Macherro have unit
ed to make war on Zelaya. The Hon
durau troops coricentritsJ at Cape
Gracias will remain there, a it is feared
that the threatened outtai on the
Mosquito reservation may extend here.
The troops at Amalpa will be distributed
along the coast. General Bonilla will
take G.000 troops and go to President
Zelaya's aid if requested. The evacua
tion of Corinto and tae sailing of the
British ships is announced.
Worse Than Their Conduct In 1878.
London, May 6. Mr. Gladstone, in a
letter to Francis Seymour Stevenson,
chairman of the Anglo-Armenian asso
ciation, says that the conduct of the sul
tan and the Turkish government in the
Armenian question has been worse than
their conduct regarding Bulgaria in 1876.
Cuban Rebels Surrender.
Havana, May G. Twenty members
of the band of rebels at Villas, com
manded by Qnintin Bravo, have sur
rendered. Cattle Inspection Tronble Ended.
Cheyenne, May (. Receiver Trum
bull, of the Gulf system, was in consul
tation today with United States Judge
J. A. Riner and the Wyoming state of
ficials on the disputed question of in
spection of southern cattle at this point.
As a result the difficulty is in a fairway
toward being amicably adjusted. The
points at which cattle will be inspected
will be determined by the place of start
ing, and the Wyoming authorities will
not compel the unloading and inspection
of cattle here, which have but six hours
before gone through the same proceed
ing at Denver.
Peculiar Case of Petrification.
Monterey, Cal., May 6 The death
in this city of William Tibbetts ended a
case which is scarcely without a parallel
in medical history. The deceased was a
sufferer from dropsy, but the peculiarity
is that he was in a state of partial petri
fication. His body was as rigid as a
stone, the pricking of a needle made no
indentation in the flesh, and all powers
of sensation had disappeared.
2few Record For Team Shooting.
San Francisco, May 6. Company
B., First regiment N. G. C, stationed
in San Francisco, smashed a world's
record for team shooting in competition
at Shell Mound rifle range yesterday,

2.500, distance 200 yards. This is nine
points over an average of 39 for each of
the fifty odd men.

Parker were sworn in today as police
commissioners to succeed Messrs. Mar
tin, Kerwin and Murray.

a dance Fred Johaunsen struck Hans
Rogers over the head with a piece ot j
board. Rogers died. ,
Jones Belteres That Oae Will Be
Held Dariae; the Present Year.
Washington, May G. Senator Jones
of Aylra" is among those who believe
that an international monetary confer
ence will be held during the present
year to consider the relationship of sil
ver to gold as a money metal. He is
one of the members on the part of the
senate. who will attend the conference
in case one is called, and has naturally
kept track of all that has been done in
the matter. He said in discussing the
probabilities that while Germauy had
not, to his knowledge, issued an execu
tive call for a conference, the action of
the reichstag had been accepted as offi
cial by the governments of the United
States, Franco aud Great Britaiu, and
added that ho did not believe the execu
tive authorities of the tier
man empire would allow 1ese
countries to conclude that shs had
been trifling merely. Hence, he be
lieved that the invitation would come
in due form, if it had not already been
sent out. Asked as to the time when
he thought the conference would be
called for, he said it would probably be
late in the season, not earlier than Oc
tober, and possibly as late as November.
He said that both sides of the contro
versy were apparently anxious for de
lay, and this being the case he believed
they would be gratified. The English
bimetallists claim to be making substan
tial headway and are asking for all the
time that can be given before the meet
ing of the conference.
IN THE FIELD OF LABOR.
Sympathy Is With the Miners.
Pocahontas, Va., May 6. There are
no miners working today in the mines
here, and while Monday is regarded as
an off day it is believed the union men
have won the miners here and that the
strikers have the field. The Hungar
ians have refused to work, and only a
very few men went up to report for
duty. They were what are known as
day men, who lay tracks and work at
the machines. The town was quiet last
night and good order prevailed, the
miners remaining in and at their homes,
but they were indignant at the attack
made last evening on oue of their speak
ers, Mr. Warbnrton, who was knocked
down by Mr. Hall on the depot platform
and seriously hurt. The meeting today
at 10 o'clock was largely at tended. The
sympathies of this section are with the
miners. The operators, itisbelieved.will
suspend any attempt to run the mines.
Textile Workers, In Session.
Providence. R. I.. May 6. The sixth
annual convention of the National
Union of Textile Workers of America,
opened in Olneyville this morning.
About 120 delegates were present, rep
resenting 50,000 textile workers through
out the country. The convention will,
it is expected, consider a plan for the
prevention of too many strikes at on6
time, as in that way too large a burden
is placed on the shoulders of the national
union when the full strength of that
body may be required in order that it
may make a winning fight in one im
portant locality.
Bitter Feeling Against Barns.
London, May 6. John Burns, mem
ber of parliament and labor leader, in
the course of his speech at the Labor
day demonstration in Hyde park, was
greeted with groans and cries of "Why
did you not support Keir Hardy?"
"Traitor," etc. Replying to this out
burst of disapproval, Mr. Bnrns said:
"If you don't want to hear me I will go
gone." This was followed by cries of
"go home," "you are no world ngman."
St. tools Strike.
St. Louis, May 6. There is no change
in the condition of the hod carriers'
strike. The strikers are determined to
hold out, and have "pickets" appointed
traversing all sections of the city keep
ing union men away from their old jobs.
A meeting of the boss bricklayers was
held today.
Failed to Agree With Operators.
Columbus, May 6. The Ohio miners'
officials today issued a circular to their
constituency to the effect that it was
impossible to agree with the operators;
that no work bs done in or around mines
except pumping and bailing water.
Laid Down Their Tools.
Bellaire, May 6. All the miners
who were on the 60 -cent basis and those
on the co-operative plan were notified to
lay down their tools and go out. Seven
thousand five hundred are idle.
Refused to Accept the New Scale.
MiDDLESBORO, May 6. The Jellico
miners have refused to accept the new
scale, and will probably go out.

HiS NATIVE HEATH.
Ha Deec Net BeMaabla. Hie Pampered
Brother of the Berkshire Breed His Ex
istence Measured by the Kale of "Root,
Bos. or Die" Hot Killin Parties.
There is a groat difference in hogs.
The form, contour and face of the
rounded, sleek sided, short legged
Berkshire and other hogs of hich decree
do not much resemble the angular, ra
zor backed hog common throughout the
south. The countenance of the well
bred, well cared for species is chubby
and contented looking, the ears small,
the enout inclined to turn up rather
than down. , His iessfortunato cousin
has a long, narrow face, immense, flop
ping ears tbas hang disconsolately over
bis eyes, and an elougated, pointed
snout that seems providentially formed
to aid his earthy explorations. "Root,
hog, or die," i3 a common saying in
the country of which this hog is a na
tive, and the swine seem to realize the
situation. They have long legs and al
ways run with their snouts close to the
ground, convenient for unearthing any
thing..eatable which may come. in their
way They diligently root up the prom
ising morsel of foot! and gulp it down,
without stopping to enjoy it, and run
on apparently faster than ever, grout
ing as they go, in search of something
more some favorite acorn or jnicy bit
of grass or berry root, upon wheh they
largely depend for subsistence.
Naturally the. vast amount of imper
ative exercise they take ranging through
the woods effectually prevents their tak
ing on much saperCuons flesh, and the
hair on their narrow backs is as rough
and coarse as that of the well bred hoy
is smooth and glossy. The majority oi
them are of a dingy white color, per
haps spotted with black, and when a
white coated one, scantily covered witu
hair, has pale eyes, bound around with
pink, and very light eyelashes, protrud
ing beneath his drooping earn, he is a
ngly a living object as can bo imagined

great faith in the ability of tho hog to
survive any amount of neglect and still
live to provide sausages and pork stew
for tho wiutr season. At certain sea
sons, when the "ehotes' can do no dam
age to the roataring crops it is neces
sary to confine th?m;antil tho fields arc
bare cuco moro and will admit of their
ranging at will.
in the course of a'walk once, a small
negro boy aud girl woro found seated
on top of the fence which surrounded a
pen, flinging corn to two hogs within
the inclosure. ThsTHdo feeding trough
was as dry s if uo liquid had ever
dampened it, and this on a hot summer
afternoon. Inquiry as to when tho pris
oners had last bad water given them
elicited no respoaM from the shy little
'shore raiwlers. " After some inquiry

went to tko'spriHlj little hollow Tu
the wood behiad tbepen, and procured
water for tha thirsty creatures. It is
needless to say that they drank it with
ividity. This pea was ia an open field,
with not a single bit of shade near. It
tad belonged to an humble establish
ncut, tJ'e houso an barn :f which had
Uv.ru moved to some other tract of laud,
:i:d the owner of the hogs had utilized

ing it most inconvenient to attend to
tho wants of tho animals.
Tho pea could easify have beeu moved,
as the fence around it was mado of
movable rails placed Jzigzaj; fashion on
purpose that it might be changed from
place to place, but evideutly tho com
fort of the "shores" was not regarded as
of much importance. Later, a small,
slim figure, in a scant, homespun dress,
faded and tern, suddenly emerged from
a narrow path which opened upon the
road, and a childish voico said timidly,
Do you want 6ome headache blossom,
ma'am?" a little black hand holding
out a bunch of delicate pink flowers,
with perfume more powerful than s weeL
The acceptance of this .offering seemed
to thaw out her reserve, aud the little
girl volunteered tho information that
sho and Yankee, her brother, "aimed
10 dash water to de hog ebery ebenin. "
In the days ot the old regime the
crops were all fenced in, and the hogs,
and cattle as well, were allowed to roam
at will through the fastnesses of the
swamps and timbered tracts. Often
times the animals were not seen fir
months. When the timo drew near for
bog killing, parties were made np to
'drive" tho swamp and capture the
half wild creatures, as it was desired to
fatten them in pens before killing. It
was not infrequently the case that the
swine became quite ferocious, having
been left so long at large, and the hunt
ers found themselves in tho midst of a
"wild boar" hunt jn earnest, which
they hugely enjoyed. Most of the farm
rs of the southern states now leave their
rrops unfenced, and the stock has to bo
pastured or looked after, which practice
has pnt an end to such pursuits. New

Thackeray on John l'aul Jones.
"Traitor, if you will, was II. John
Paul Jones, afterward knight of his
most Christian majesty's Order of Mer
it, but a braver traitor never wore a
sword."
Such wero almost the last words
traced by tho hand of Thackeray, and
they show the astonishing misconcep
tion of Paul Jones which prevailed in
the mind of one of the justest men that
ever lived. "Washington was a hero even
to his enemies, yet Washington had ac
tually held a commission in tho Brit
ish army, while Paul Jones could say
to tho American congress at the close of
the war: "I have never borne arms under
any but the American flag, nor have I
ever homo or acted under any commis
sion but that of the congress of Amer
ica." This singular distinction against
Paul Jones extended to the whole of the
feeblo naval force of the colonies. Sol
diers were treated- from the beginning
as prisoners of war, while until Paul
Jones forced an exchange of prisoners
upon equal terms American sailors were
formally declared to be "traitor, pi
rates and feIons.,, "Paul Jones," by
Molly Eilfot Seiwell, in Century.
