" simply a move for the protee- our own interests, something which has been previously recognized by the allies and agreed to by Germany, but where a new understanding seems o be necessary in view of the fact that we have not aeeepted the treaty of Ver- sailles but have a separate treaty, pro- ecting our rights under that treaty, with Germany, SOUTH AFRICAN FIGHTING, What seems to have started from & firike of the minecs In South Afries has tuickly developed into outlawry and re- bellion In which there has been a large loss of life and a display of savagery in the threats which have been made to take the lives of hostages unless the de- mands are granted. While the armed bands seemed for a time to hawve caused much consterpa- tion the prempt measures for suppres- slon that were taken give evidence of being effective without a long deawn out contest and, if the reperts are true without ealling to the support of the radieals the fighting strength of thesge dissatisfied factions which are often too cager to use any pretext for advancing «heir demands for the establishment of & republic. The fact that such elements and the natlves have not been drawn into the struggle gives Indlcation that it will be ended without further serious trouble. There are those in strike actlvities who are ready to go \0 any extreme in ihe use of force to accomplish thelr purr pose and this is indicated in the desper- wolved in the disturbances were pre- pared to go, such aa the attempted as- Sassination of General Smuts and the threat to shoat down the prisoners in cold blood unless demands Were com- plied with, Some anxious moments have been caused by the disturbers but indications at the present time do mot point to a general uprising. The strikers went far beyond a reasonable lmit,in endeavor- ing to force through their demands, and While there appears to have been suffi cient basls in that country for the launching of a full fledged revelution there hasn't developed any well organ- ized plan and the indications are that ‘the entire effort is likely to"fail. That this can be gttributed to the prempt measures which have bdeen taken to deal with the situation is plainly indl- cated. It was no time for half way re- sistance or dilatory tactics, but any trouble of sueh a character in South Africa alwgys causes anxlety. DOWNING THE AMENDMENTS. Action upon the amendments that have been offered to the four-power treaty have been watched with interest because of the bearing which it was bound to have upon the attitude of the senate to the treaty itself. There was no reason to suppose that they would be adepted. In fact thelr defeat was re- garded as certain and the interest In connection with them has been confined to the support they would receive. Action upon amendments does not necessarily mean that the senators will be found voting the same way when it comes to actlon upon the treaty itself, but it is possible to get Some idea of the alignment. There are those Who might be disposed to approve of certain amendments who would not oppose the ratification of such an important treaty, while there jare of course those favering amendments who have shown their op- position to the treaty without what can be regarded as good d sufficlent cause, There Is no question about where they stand. As to the action on the document there are good reasons to expect that the senate will vote to ratify. It is what the country Is seeking and it is what the best Interests of the country call for. How great the majority of the senata s in favor of ratification is indicated by the vote on the amendments on Tuesday. There has been some right abolt racing on the part of some of the teaders and there has beem the expectad policy of obstruction displayed by otn- ers, all of which has been well dis- counted in advance, but such narr views as have been displayed in the op- position to ratification can hardly be ex- pected to carry welght if there is con- scientious consideration given to the na- tion's welfare and the demand which exists in all parts of the country for such a protection against war dangers. The defeat of the amendments by a two to one vote gives pretty good evi- dence that ratification will take place, although the margin may not be as great as one might desire under the cin cumstances, NEW TOW MEETING METHOD. The New England town form of gov- ernment gives everyone a chance to par- ticlpate and be heard upon matters in which they are directly interested. There are good and bad features but for the most part towns continue to stick by it for lack of something bat- ter. An experiment that is bound to be watched with considerable interest is that which is being tried out in Green- fleld, Mass., where the town meeting has been changed from a meeting. in which all taxpavers participate to ope In which a total of 252 townsmen have Dbeen elected to serve as town meeting members. one-third of them to serve for three years, one-third for two years and one-third for one years fourteen being elected from each of six districts for each period of service. Upon these town meeting members will develve the work of carrying on the business meeting. They will do the work which has hitherto been the duty of the townspeople to do. They will nnt only have the privilege of attending town meeting but they will be expected | to he there and they will he charged with the responsibllity of giving careful attention ta the authorization of expen- ditures, it being the bellef that such a body will de it more satisfactorily than a town meeting which happens to be packel this year and only attended hy a handful when the next one 1s held. Likewise it is to he expected that those selected for tewn meeting members will be men qualified to act wisely upon matters before them and not be subject to stampede actlon, Tt is a decided departure from the customary tewn, meeting method and for that reason will therefore be watch- ed for such resylts as are produced.

One of the most shocking tragedies that has ever occurred in the New England States was the double murder of Andrew J. Borden and his wife at Fall River, Mass., on August 4, 1892. They were killed in their home in Sec- ond street and both bedies had been frightfully mutilated. Mr. Borden's body was found on the first floor, while Mrs. Borden’s was found in her own chamber on the upper floor. Mr. Borden was a wealthy real estate owner, a banker and mill man. He had been scen on the street only half an hour before the tragedy ococurred, An in- vestigation was at once started and on the day following an advertisement was inserted in the local newspapers by the two daughters of the murdered couple, Emma L. and Lizzie D. Barden, offering a reward of $5,000 for the arrest and conviction of the murderers . The two daughters made their home with their parents at the time of the murder, but Emma was aw on a visit, Lizale was at home, but claimed she was in the garden when the murder occurred, and the only other person in the house was a servant girl, Bridget Sullivan. The murdered Bordens were burled on Aug. Twenty-four hours each day the po- lice and detectives were working on the case. For some time many persons advanced the double suicide theory, as the daugh- ter in the garden would have heard the murderer if it was a case of murder. This was dispelled by the fact that no weapons were found near the bodles, but later two axes and two hatchets were dls- covered in the cellar with stalns of bloed upon them, which confirmed the murder theory. Suspjeion was first created agalnst Li Borden, the youngest daughter, when in a search of the premises two days later she refused to allow the au- thorities to make an examination of her room. The first indication that there would be an arrest In the rase was on August 10, when Lizzle was closely ques- tioned, the answers she gave being un- satisfactory. * She was taken into cus- tody the followinz day and on August 12 she was arraigned at the Second Dis- trict courtraom. She was accompanied to the nroceedings by Rev. E. A, Buck, the Congregational minister, whose church-the Bordens attended. She plead- ed not gullty in a voice that rang eut clear and audible all over the still room. After the court proceedings Lizzle was taken into an ante-room, where she had passed the previous night, and from there was transferred to the Taunton jall, Miss Borden was given a preliminary hearing on August 25. The case was carried on for several days. On the sec- ond day Bridget Sullivan gave some damaging evidence against the accused daughter, She stated that there was no stranger in the house and the enly ee- cupants at the time ef the murder were Mr. and Mrs. Borden, Lizale and her- gelf. It was brought eut that the daughter had told conflicting storles as te her ahsence from the house to the barn at the time of the crime. This preliminary trial was closed on Sept. 1, when the venerable Judge Blaisdell di. rected that Miss Borden be returned to Taunton jail to stand trial the first Monday in November for the murder of her parents. The final trial was postponed from time to time and did not besin untfl May 8, 1893, in the superior eourt of the state, at the time in session in New Bedford, Mass, There were three In- dictments agalnst her, two of which were for the murder of her parents separately, and the third charging her with the mur- der of them both. The trial was conducted without in- terruption through the rest of May and through June up to the 30th.. Former | gather. N THE PUBLIC EYE | This s the fifty-third birthday anni- Yersary of John H.

The Druses believe that God revealed himself ten times in human form, tke last of these incarnations being Hakim, whose my- sterious disappearance gave semblance to the prophecies that he is to return. “The Maronite Christians, who have interested Bible students hecause they adhere closely to so many practices of the early church, are neighbors of the Druses, The latter attacked the Maronites so vigorously in 1860 that a French army was sent to Syria and a Europeam commission was named to conduct an inquiry into the elrcum- stances.
