China is unfortunate. It can neither
fight nor make the European powers
jealous of each other. The result Is that
England, France and Russia are carv
ing, it up without the slightest cere
mony. If China kills a single Chris
tian, Indemnity is promptly exacted.
The Sultan, on the other hand, murders
Christians by the thousand, and yet
feels perfectly secure as the pampered
pet of Europe.
New World: The condition of the peo
ple of St. John's, N". 1, furnishes a test
of the sincerity of the efforts made in
Great Britain and in this country to
raise funds for the relief of the distress
In Armenia. As a result of bad times
and of bad loans it is stated officially
that one thousand families in St. John's
are without food, fuel and clothing and
have nothing with which to face the
rigors of the four coming months. There
is no work by which they could earn an
honest living. Any one who feels phl
lanthropically Inclined, especially any
Englishman or Canadian who is yearn
ing for an opportunity to display his
philanthropy, can undoubtedly find a
fine field nearer home than Armenia.
The distress in Newfoundland is gen
uine and heartrending.
There is no element of real tragedy In
Prince Henry of Batteuberg's death
from fever on the African coast. The
Prince's position at the English court
was an uncomfortable, in some respects
perhaps a painful, one. Like the late
Prince Consort, whose popularity in
England was wholly posthumous, he
wag regarded with little favor on ac
count of his nationality, his relatively
Inferior rank and his lack of wealth.
His personal qualities, which are said
to have been admirable, weighed little
against the dense prejudices of race and
station, while the domestic conditions
Imposed upon him at his marriage with
Princess Beatrice served only to in
crease the difficulties that surrounded
him. To these difficulties the Annan tee
expedition appeared to offer a solution
Prowess In the field is a sure passport
to English hearts, and Prince Henry
doubtless aspired to win with his sword
a higher place In the estimation of his
Adopted country. These hopes were
doomed to a cruel disappointment He
has not even had the good fortune to
be slain In battle. He was struck
down with fever before the enemy
were so much as In sight Sympathy
will everywhere be felt for Queen Vic
toria and Princess Beatrice, by whom
the Ill-fated Prince appear to have
been sincerely loved.
Nations are composed of Individuals
and governmental policy often la re
flected In the utterances of private citi
zens. Editor Stead boldly says that
while England might be willing to ar
bitrate with a strong and powerful na
tlon like the United States. It cannot
think of doing so with Venezuela, and
adds that any civilized nation has a
perfect right to grow and expand Its
borders by conquest If necessary, In
civilizing a savage nation. In other
words, England's policy Is "might
makes right" And now comes another
Englishman and writes to a Chicago
paper to state this policy with even
more brutal frankness. Says be: "It
la the highest compliment that can be
paid to England to call ber a robber
nation. Is It not nobler and better to
be robbers than to be robbed? I say It
la honorable to the Anglo-Saxon breed
that they are able to rob, to spread
themselves out over the waste places
of earth, to Increase and multiply, to
rale and reign. Instead of the Ameri
can branch of this old Imperial stock
antagonizing the efforts of English
statesmen to 'grab all they can' and
colonize It, this country should rather
Join In the world-wide game and get Its
fall share of the plunder that Is to be
had for the taking." Here speaks En
glandunofficially, It Is true, bat none
the less authoritatively. England's
policy la ever one of aggression, and
other nations nay aa well understand
that fact flrat as last

That an Arctic explorer should past
unscathed through the perils of lf and
snow and then be frozen to death in
the mountains of his native Norway, U
one of the astounding mysteries of fate.
Eivlnd Astrup was a young Norwe
gian, who semed to have a great future
before him. He was a volunteer In
Peary's first Arctic expedition ami in
the famous inland ice Journey did man
ful service. He bad explored the ghi
cler region of Melville Bay, ami named
one of the greatest glaciers after Kin
Oscar of Norway. He intended to adapt
ballooning to the work of Arctic ex
ploration. Those who know Just where the shot
pinches will lie interested In the infor
mation which conies from Union Hill
X. J., that Charles Heinzmaun of that
place has discovered a new and sure
"one night corn cure" that may be re
lied uou to work every time. Mr.
Heiuzmaun of late has teen much wor
ried by the presence of a hot, insistent
and self-assertive corn on the littlest
toe of his left foot. He confided to hie
young wife the source of his woe and
was Jocularly advised by her to "cut
the toe off." He did. The Job wa
done with a butcher's ch-aver and Mr.
Heinzmaun has not lieeu troubled by
the corn since then. It should also be
added that Mr. Heinzmaun died ol
blood poisoning. .
Dread of something worse has In
duced the 8ultan to modify his ordci
refusing foreign extension of aid to the
Armenian victims of Mussulman fero
city. His Imperial Majesty consents
that Clara Barton and her party may
distribute relief In bis dominions, but bt
sternly refuses to recognize the Ked
Cross. This Is a diplomatic victory for
the Sultan. Turkish roads from the
seaboard to the Armenians are mad
Impassable by snow and Ice. No relief
party, with or without the cross, will be
able to reach them via Constantinople
before spring, and meanwhile most of
the money will be spent In an effort to
overcome nature's barriers and the
Turk's obstruct! veness. Thus, un
vexed by the cross, the Turk will get
the cash. Would It not be Judicious on
the part of Minister Terrell to make
known to Miss Barton and her party
that at present Turkey is No Thorough
fare, and advise that both the Ked
Cross and the American cash should re
main out of that part of the world for
the present? Or shall not Miss Bar
ton address herself to St Petersburg
for a passport to Armenia?
Recently a Ore broke out In one of
the public school buildings of Omaha.
The children had been accustomed to
a Are drill and had been thoroughly In
structed what they must do In case of
an alarm. A little fellow named Offle
Downs was the drummer, and It was
his duty whenever the alarm sounded
to take bis position at the foot of the
stairs with his drum and start the pro
cession with bis rataplan. The teacher
who discovered the Ore marshaled ber
pupils In their accustomed order, then
notified the principal, who also placed
the other children In the ranks. By
this time both principal and teachers
began to lose tbelr beads, and as the
smoke filled the building the children
were thrown Into a panic, which was
Intensified by the beating of the gong.
Little 6ffle, however, did not lose bis
bead. He rushed for his drum, put
himself In his customary place at tbe
foot of the stairs, though It was close
to tbe fire and In tbe midst of
blinding smoke, and began his drum
beat. At the familiar sound the chil
dren fell Into the ranks and the march
hegnn. The procession filed quietly out
and all were saved, when but a moment
before It seemed likely that many of
them would be killed in a mad scramble
to get out of the building. Offle was
the hero of the occasion by his courage
and presence of mind, and he has re
ceived the due meed of praise as his re
ward. The Incident shows the value of
military discipline and the habit of
unquestioning obedience. And there is
a useful lesson In Offle's leadership,
though every boy might not have had
bis thoughtful neaa and bravery.

El Paso, Tex., Feb. 13. The sltu
tlon thirty-six hours before the time
originally set for the appearance of
Pitzslromotis and Maher in the ring is
in nearly every respect the counterpart
of the conditions that immediately pre
ceded the meeting of Sullivan aud Ki!
rain at Itichburg in July
The Texas and tederl authorities
and those of the adjoining Mexican
state are apparently as de'ermiued lo
prevent the mill as were the executives
of Louisiana and Mississippi seven
years ago. By the same token the
active promoters of the contest are
just as cool and collected and going
ahead with their arrangements with as
much energy as did liuJ lumaud and
his associates at New Orleans. There
is no question but that they have care
fully laid their plans and that they are
confiJent of their ability to bring off
the big fight at last.
The battle ground has been finally
selected. The arrangements for trsnp.
portation are effected and every detail,
including the hour at which the tip is
to be given to the ticket-holders to ren
dezvous, has been carefully planned to
the end that the powers that be of the
locality selected rosy be outwitted. To
the remaining even's of the carnival
everything depends upon the outcome
of Friday's venture. The fight man
agers admit that it will hardly be pos
sible to bring off two contests at the
same spot, and their ability to find safe
locations Is seriously doubted.
There was talk last night that an
effort will be made to pull off the Ever-hardt-Leeds
contest and that the others
would be abandoned, but this the man
agers would neither deny or aflirm.
Their coolness and assurance con
cerning the big fight, however, Lhs
given renewed confidence to local peo
ple and visiting sports and beta were
freely offered last nUht, with no takers,
that the Australian and the Irishman
will come together on schedule time.
At midnight it was reported that the
spot chosen for the tight is on the Mex
ican border directly opposite Strauss,
N. M,, eighteen miles from El 1'aso on
the Southern Pacific. Here there Is a
plateau surrounded on three sides by
mountains and which is absolutely In
accessible save from the American
Bl4, Meanwhile Governor Ahumada,
with his headquarters at Juarez, is
keeping in close touch with the situa
tion. A detachment of the national
cavalry, twenty-five strong, arrived
from Chihuahua during the morning
and is quartered at the Juarez barracks
where there Is also a company of fifty
of the Peons infantry.
There are no rurales on the border or
within a distance oi two hundred miles
and the governor is emphatic in bis
statement tbat none is needed and that
none will be brought on. To Judge
Crosby of this city, who visited him
yesterday to make a final effort toward
inducing him to withhold Interference,
Governor Ahumaha said that he was
satisfied tbat with only a small force
at bis command, he could prevent an
Invasion of Mexican soli at any point.
Later In the day the governor was even
more emphatic
"This fight must Dot and shall not
take place In Mexico,'' he said, "and If
Its promoters come on our side of the
line our soldiers will have orders to
shoot without discrimination between
combatants or non-combatants, prin.
cipals or spectators. Everybody has
been given fair warning and If they
disregard it then it will be at their own
peril."
A Bad Aretdaat.
Rochester, N. Y., Feb 13. A fatal

Btii un. Feb. 14 In presenting lbs
foreign oHoa estimates In the resebs
tag yesterday Freiuorr Marshall von
BieDeretela, minister of foreign axTaira.
took oceasioa to declare that nothing
bad happeoed to justify an oat break
of indignation on tba part of tbe Brit
ish public. Tbe good relations exist
ing between the ministers of Germany
and Great Britain, he said, bad not for
a moment been interrupted. It was
not true, be continued, that President
Kxuger of tbe South African republic
had appealed lo Germany to Intervene.
Germany bad only protected her Inter
ests in tbe Transvaal under tbe com
mercial treaty concluded in lrj5. He
would not attempt to argue against
English public opinion, be said; be
would equally avoid anything calcu
lated to pour oil upon the lire, but he
declared he would demand the same
right of free expression of the feeling
of the people of Germany as England
wields freely the right to express the
anti-Germau feeling of the e pie of
Great Brltaiu. Tins declaration was
received with prolonged cheers.
Dr. llamrnacher expressed bis thanks
that the government had not Ideutitied
itself with the f aulas' ic increase of the
navy which had lieeu suggested.
Herren Lieber and Von Kardorff
gave expressions of thanks to the gov
ernment for Its (inn foreign policy.
Ilerr Richler declared that harmony
between England and Germany meant
peace throughout the world. War, he
said, would work serious damage to
Germany, but it would be disastrous to
England in India and in Egypt.
Ilerr liebcl, socialist, cond.-mned the
congratulatory telegrams tent by the
emperor to President Kruger of the
South African republic, which, he said,
bad j iBily aroused the indignation of
England. If the cane h id b?en one In
volving free France or Hu an. Instead
of England, he declared the message
would never have been rent. If such s
polioy was ventured upon be predicted
that Germany wou:d soma day be
awakened by a dire catastrophe. He
then proceed to attack the policy of
Germany in the east.
A Terrlable Australian AfTi r.
Bkishane. Australia, Feb. 14. The
s'r amer Pearl, having on board about
eighty persons, met with an accident
yesterday that resulted in the death of
forty persons. The Brisbane river has
been greatly swollen by heavy rains
that have fallen lately and the current
Is running very strong. The Pearl was
not powerful enough to stem the cur
rent and was swung broadsi le on and
carried down the river. Before she
could get way enough on to carry her
out of danger she was carried athwart
the cable chains of the Lucuida, which
was lying at anchor in the stream.
The Pearl struck the chains witW
such force that she was almost co -pletely
cut In two. Then the current
turned her over and she sank. Before
she went down, however, a vast volume
of steam waa sent ascending from her,
and It was afterwards learned that ber
steam pipes had been broken.
Many of those on her lower deck
were fatally scalded, while o' tiers were
drowned. The work of rescuing the
survivors was extremely difficult, as
they ware earned seaward with great
rapidity by the flood. Thousands gath
ered about the scene of the disaster,
and there were many affecting scenes
as tbe living and dead were brought to
shore. Some of the bodies will never
be recovered.
To Stlf Their Suspicion
Chicago, Feb. 14. The body ot
Mark Maber, who died suddenly at
Hot Springs, Ark., February 1, was re
moved front tbe vault at Oak wood
cemetery yesterday morning by Deputy
Coroner Buckley, an order having been
Issued by Judge Gjggin foi' an inquest
to be heid for tbe purpose of determin
ing tbe cause of the dead man's rela
tives. The examination and inquest were
adjourned until today at the request
of the coroner's physician, the reason
being that the body was frozen bard.
A superficial examination was made
by tbe physicians, but no bullet boles
or other outward signs of a violent
death were seen. The Investigation
was made behind closed doors, only a
select party of those Interested being
admitted. The widow's attorney was
present and stated tbat bis client did
not Instigate the opposition of the
cemetery officials to the removal of tbe
body. Bbe was now Just as anxious as
Matter's brother to bars the Inquest to
show shat the murder theory was a fa
brleatlon, as doctors were at ths death
bed and asserted tbat heart disease
ended his Ufs.

About fifteen years ago, when Ed
ward Collts was a young soldier in In
dia, a great military misfortune befell
tbe British (run. Every one recollects
tbe disastrous battle of Mai wand.
Eyoob Khan, the young Barukisar
chief of Afghanistan, bad taken tbe
field againt us with a large force, mov
ing up toward Candabar from Herat
Gen. Burrows, an iucajtable leader,
came out of Candahar to meet him with
about 2,iiii0 men, of whom only Hi
were white, against aouie 15.WW of the
Herateen. Burrows was outmaueu
Vere.1. outflanked and overwhelmed,
while the field guns were cut off and
two of them taken out of hand. Of the
English troops, 3cw fell Uliu that sad
field, with "no of the native rank and
file killed or mlsKing. ami many a gal
lant oltlivr died iu the effort to rally
their flying men.
James Collls, un that tragic ix-i-nMon.
surpassed everybody by his magnifi
cently brave lM-havior. ills gun had
lieen disabled by the killing of moM of
the horses and the wounding of the
gunners, many of whom were placed
uimiii the limlM'i-M and carriage, while
the survivors made frantic efforts to
ut loot-e the dead i-attle and drlvcawsy
with the piece and the blii-ding men
clinging to It for ew-apc. At that mo
ment a column of llenitees made to
ward the gun to cut off and t-lay the
gunners, tiring their rllles ns they ap
proached. Imminent death thr.tciied
the liud of artillerymen and the certain
lis of the gun, when the young soldier
performed a deed of courage as high
as that of Iloratiiis keeping the bridge.
Huuniiig forward iiito the open space
still left between the field piece and
the horde of Afghan horse and foot,
yelling, firing and rushing down, Collis
halted In front of them and poured bul
let after bullet Into the throng, drop
ping a liremiin or footman with every
touch of his trigger. Partly iu wonder,
partly In fer, jmi rtly. It may lie. from
that feeling of iutultlve respect which
Easterners have toward a madman
dewnul the column actually stopped
stopped to do Iwittle with 8 single En
glishman! am l'K) matchlock and
czalis opened lire umii the fen rices gun
ner. Not a bullet touched him-the tiring
was too wild ami excitedbut that
brief pause gave time to get the piece
cbfir, and to carry It wifely out of the
engagement with all the wounded men
upon It. There was nothing liner done
in the way of unselfish manhood and
soldierly devotion that evil day of Mal
wand. and when Ird Kola-rls then
Sir Frederick had taken over the
charge from the wenk hands of Bur
rows and Primrose, and had soundly
thrashed Kyoob as we did in Septem
ber fif that same year, iv, Maiuand
having been fought In July her majes
ty was pleased to bestow the glorious
reward of the Victoria cross upon Kd
ward Collls, whom all the world hon

love and admire aui praise.
And this Is the man. Edward Collls,
only fifteen years older, who stood a
prisoner on Tuesday last In the dock of
the Old Bailey, chargi-d with a scries
of offenses against the law which were
characterized from beginning to end by
lying, (-uniting, low meanness, cruelty
and Imse cowardice. He was convicted
and sent to prison for eighteen months.

Avoiding Appearance of Wrong.
Mr. V. W. Tracy, president of a na
tional bank In Springfield, Illinois, telW
in the Chicago Times-Herald a story Il
lustrating President Lincoln's anxiety
to avoid the appearance of wrong.
Very shortly after the national bank
ing law went into effect, the First Na
tional of Springfield was chartered, and
Mr. Tracy wrote to Mr. Lincoln, with
whom he was well acquainted in a bus!
Dens way, and offered him an opportu
nlty to su!)scrlle for some of the stock
He knew It was a good Investment, and
would le Is-tter, anil he wished to serve
both his lstnk and his President.
In reply, Mr. Lincoln WTote, thank
Ing Mr. Tracy for the offer, and at tin
same time declining to subscrltw. lit!
said be rwognUed that stock in a good
national bank would Im a good thing to
hold, and that the First National would
be that sort of a bank; but he did not
feel that he ought. as he waa President,
to profit from a law which had ts-en
panned under bis administration.
The President felt that his act might
be susceptible of a wrong construction,
and so he declined.
He Got Kven.

Orchard or .Nut Grave.
The fanner who plants an orchard,
a vineyard, a nut grove or a small
tlmter tract now Is simply "casting an
anchor to windward." Such things
should not usurp the place of a broader
agriculture, but he Is not blameless who
does not work some of them In conjunc
tion. Two or three hundred nut trees
will become worth more than the whole
farm beside.
Protection for Apple Tree.
To protect apple trees from borers
and rabbits, the most successful of
many methods 1 have tried Is to take
common barn paint, thick enough to
be easily applied, and add one and a
half pounds pulverised copperas for
each gallon. Mix thoroughly and ap.
ply. It will last two years.
This world Is all a stage, but it s a
long step from the man of property to
proer;y-mau.
