JAPAN CALLED DOWN

Her Demands on China Entire's ly Too Great.

THREE POWERS TO INTERFERE.

An Agreement Reached Iletween Germany, Itusshi and France in Wliicli Xliey Will at Once Take Steps to Protect Their Interests in Western Asia—The Japanese

Preparing to llesnme the Figlit. LONDON", April 22.—A dispatch to

The Times from Berlin says that The North German Gazette (semi-official) publishes an article of similar import to that contained in the Cologne Gazette Saturday afternoon.

The Cologne Gazette said Saturday that in view of the pressure being exercised by the war party in Japan. Germany at the beginning of March enjoined the Japanese government to be moderate in the terms demanded for peace, urging that the cession of territory upon the mainland of China would be especially calculated to induce the intervention of the powers.

When it was shown by the published terms of peace that Japan was not disposed to follow Germany's advice, steps were immediately taken to establish an accord with the powers, and a complete agreement has been reached with Russia and France. The three powers, Germany, Russia and France, will now take steps to protect their interests in western Asia.

The question of territorial changes will be first kept in view, against Japan's desire to bind herself like a solid girdle around China in order to be able to shut off China entirely from Europe. In case of need the three powers mentioned intend to avert in good time any injury to their interests. It was added, however, that Germany would be glad to see Japan enjoy the fruits of her military prowess on condition that it does not injure German interests.

Other Nations ?iot Uarred Out. YOKOHAMA, April 22.—The govern

ment has issued a statement denying that it has concluded an offensive and defensive alliance with China, and declaring that the commercial advantages secured by Japan under the terms of the treaty will also be enjoyed by the other powers under the "most favored nation" treatment.

Japs licady to Ilencw the Fight. LONDON, April 22.—A dispatch to The

Times from Kobe hays on April 13 and 14 fiiS transports left Unjinana with 30,000 Japanese troops. It is believed that these troops are destined to make a descent upon Taku and Shan-Hai-Kwan directly the time the armistice shall have expired.

Great I5ritain's Policy.

LONDON, April 22.—The Standard contends that Great Britain does not need to take the initiative in interfering with China and Japan. If the other powers want to modify the treaty of peace, let them act. Great Britain's policy is one of quiet, vigilant self-pro-tection.

Wants the Treaty Modified. LONDON, April 22.—A Paris dispatch

to The Times says that The Journal Des Debates comments on Greufc Britain's apparent isolation in her proJapanism. The paper appeals for European consent to present a modification kf the peace treaty before it is too late.

Peace Treaty Katifled.

YOKOHAMA, April 22.—A dispatch from Hiroshima, the temporary headquarters of the Emperor of Japan, states that his majesty ratified the treaty of his peace on Saturday.

FIVE NEGROES LYNCHED.

Two of Them Were Women and All Were Charged With Murder. MONTGOMERY. Ala., April 22.—A gen

tleman who arrived at 9 o'clock last night from Greenville, Ala., 40 miles south of here, reports that five negroes were lynched near there Saturday night. Just before his train left Greenville last night, the sheriff of the county came into town and reported that in passing Buckalow plantation, three miles from town, he had found the five negroes, three men and two women, hanging by their necks to some trees, their bodies cold, and they evidently had been dead some hours.

Saturday night news reached Greenville of the brutal murder near Butler, in that county, of Watts Murphy, a popular young white man, by the negroes. Murphjr was a prominent young farmer, being a nephew of the late Governor Watts of tliis city. After murdering linn the negroes placed his )dy in a brush heap and burned the he ip. The debris was examined, and the teerh, liver and heart ol! the victim were found, the balance of the body having been consumed.

An investigation was instituted. Tnree negroes were arretted. Finally. Satr.rrtay, one of the negroes gave wy and confessed ilie crime, implicating two other negro men and women. The officers secured them, and were closely guarding the prisoners when last heard ol' Saturday night.

The latest report does not give the details of how the mob secured the murderers except that they were taken by force. A telegram from Greenville confirms the story.

CURIOUS BEDSTEADS.

One Made of Gold and Another of Glass. AU Electric Bed.

Although the majority of mankind is content with the conventional bedstead, manufactured either from wood, iron or brass, there exist certain individuals whose tastes, as regards this necessary article of domestic furniture, aro by no means so simple.

Such, for instance, was tho Parisian gentleman who a short time ago ordered from a firm in Paris a golden bedstead, every part of which, even down to the laths, was mado of this precious metal. At first sight this certainly looks liko a piece of unwarrantable extravagance, yet who knows but that tho gentleman looked upon it in tho nature of au investment, which he could at any moment realize if he felt so inclined?

Equally uncommon was the bedstead which an old lady, who certainly had only tasted the Pierian spring of scientific knowledge, ordered to bo constructed for her use. She had read somewhere that glass insulators placed under the casters of a bedstead were conducive to the retention of electricity in tho body, and so she argued that a bedstead composed entirely of glass would prove a still better contrivance. Accordingly she had such a glass bedstead constructed, which on completion proved to be by no means an inartistic piece of furniture.

Apropos of electricity, early in tho present century a Dr. Grahame, a quack, who made and lost a largo fortuno over I the "Temple of Hygiene," wag in the habit of selling olectric bedsteads at tho price of $200 apiece, the property of which beds, he advertised, was to rejuvenate the persons who slept in them as well as to givo them beauty and health.

As a matter of fact, these bedsteads were nothing moro than ordinary brass ones, with a battery attached, while all I that could bo said in their favor was that they were perfectly harmless.

But by far the most curious kinds of bedsteads aro to bo found in what wo may term mechanical bedsteads, which some people of eccentric habits havo I from time to time ordered to bo mado.

A retired sea captain who, although not actually mentally deranged, was what one may call "on tho borderland,'1 declared to his friends that he could not sleep unless ho felt tho motion of tho sea. Night after night this unfortunate gentleman kept awake, thereby causing considerable damage to his health. At last it occurred to his medical adviser that something might bo done in order to produce, by mechanical means, the movement which his patient so much desired. A consultation with a practical engineer resulted in the production of a bedstead which, by means of machinery, moved tho mattress upon which the captain was to sleep up and down, producing in every way tho effect so much desired. Thig bedstead proved a great Buccess, and the captain was no longer troubled with insomnia.—New York Advertiser.

The New Birth of India.

No one can tell what Alexander did for tho world when he mado tho Greek language coextensive with his empire, and which in after years bocamo the jewol setting for the matchless piotures of the Son of Man, the Son of God, and no one can fully estimate the vast and splendid results wrought in India by tho introduction of the English language.

That there aro millions of illiterates in India cannot be denied. Education has been confined too long to the fow and not to the many. Nor is this peculiar to India. Tho masses havo always been allowed to burrow in ignorance, and compulsory education is far from an active law in this enlightoned land. During the reign of Pericles in Greece, Augustus in Rome, tho masses know nothing of the refining and transforming air of intellectual communion, and hero in tho fairest of all lands, where schools aro numerous and gleam liko gems upon tho plains, where books aro widely circulated, whero tho printing presses aro dropping daily millions of leaves, tho black band of illiteracy is seen stretching hundreds of miles, and mixed with the wheat of high literature, temperanco and moral beauty are tho tares of drunkenness, gambling and lecherous writings, all permittod to abound. And if the benighted Hindoo once throw her child into tho Ganges wo have parents committing deeds as villainous aud black. Better throw an infant into the river, with tho hope it will bo cared for by a loving God, than to offer grown children as living sacriI ices on tho bloody altars of Bacchus, Moloch and Mars. The besotted debauch' is a moro frightful spectacle than a Hindoo mother flinging her babe to a croeodilo or under tho crushing wheels of Juggernaut.

If wo are' looking only for vices, wo can find them as easily in America as in India, as easily in "palaco deckcd, church jeweled Hoston" as in Lucknow or Bombay.—Homo and Country, KK-:

Jenny

Lir.'l's

Voice.

Jenny Lind's voice, at its best, was a high soprano of bright and remarkably sympathetic quality, reaching from below to in alt, tho upper register being strongor, cloarer and richer than tho lower. Who had also very largo, well developed lungs that gavo her phenomenal length of breath and enabled her to tone down a noto to tho finest pianissimo while maintaining tho quality unchanged. Her execution was roally marvelous, and her performance of cadenza passages was never oqualed beforo or sinco. She usually invented her own cadenzas and modified them in a way that electrified not only tho ordinary audience, but tho most highly cultured musicians also. Nothing liko the furoro sho oxcitod had ever been known bofore in England or America. People woro known to stand in line for 3-4 hours to have an opportunity to purchase, at an extravagant rate, a tickot to one of her concerts.—Exchange.
