But few of the Chinamen' could talk English and , Charley, the Interpreter, in a loud voice. ! proclaimed to the heathen thronr what was being dona by the wheels of Jus tice. ; It looked like a Chinese pursle for a time. The officials were In a quandary as ' to bow to distinguish one from the ' other until' Judge Hogue found a plan. "Ilave all of the Chinamen charged ' . Wltb visiting the places arranged on one ' aide of the room," he ordered, and as I Mr. Fitsgerald struggled through the ; long; Jlst of name the defendants lined i up against the wall. The interpreter I addressed the anxious multitude and told them what the court had said.

A J compromise was finally reached when it was agreed to continue the coses for ' two weeks. Mr. Fitzgerald asked that it be understood that the lotteries be not opened In the meantime or other raids would follow. The lawyers had so ad vised their clients and the Chinamen filed out of court. After the big roundup the chief said that It would cost 1100 ball to secure the release of those held for operating games while those charged with visiting the places ,wou!d be required to- put up S20. It was not long before the owners of the various games were at liberty and in a short time money began to pour into the station. It is an unwritten law among tbe Chinese that no one shall re main, in Jail for frequenting gambling games and before jibe- night was half over all of the victims of the raid were at liberty and a total of 12.180 in ball money waa In the bands of the ponce.

Sofia, Sept 26. -The official ' note of Russia received here yesterday, the con tents of which clearly stated hat In case of war neither Bulgaria nor Tur key need count on assistance from the powers, is" taken to mean that Russia and Austria will allow the Turk to con tinue the present cruel warfare un checked. All this means that Bulgaria expects no promises to be fulfilled by the sul tan, and that ' war must eventually be waged with Turkey. Preparations are going on quietly, but with grim1' deter mination. There ia one serious matter that the Bulgarians believe that Russia has not counted upon, and that Is the almost certainty that If war begins, in Its progress the Mussulman will attack anything of a Christian character. Mia slonary stations of whatever govern ment will not be sacred to the Moham medan. In such event there will be but one course for the great Christian na tions to pursue, and that Is the protec tion of their people and the punishment, of tha country responsible for the out rages.

That Russia and Austria have a great deal to say In the situation is not questioned, but it is un derstood that the state department will not brook the killing of an innocent American citizen, regardless of-any note or notes. v- It is said that'the timely arrival of the American fleet at Beirut waa suc cessful in frustrating plans for the wip ing out of the great American missions at that city. Be that as It may, the warships will remsln, and It 18 rumored at the naval department that more may soon be required. A dispatch was received here last night that Turkish soldiers recently took 60 women from the village Of Kllssuri. The town was not destroyed.

Considerable stress was laid on at wide advertisement of the section re- gardlng the employers of child laboit , keeping; an official register-of such thll-j dren as come within the provlalons off the law. That section Is as follows: "Section 6. It shall be the duty o every person or corporation employing? a child under the age of 16 yeara to keep a register in which shall be re- -corded the name, age, date of birth anoT place of residence of every child under the age of 16 years employed, and Jtj shall be unlawful for any person on . corporation to employ any child under-i the age of 16 years unless there Is first! provided an placed an-fHe- lir -theftec-J--tory. store, or workshop, or, mme, or la : the telegraph, telephone ; or messenger office In which such chlldrls employed an affidavit' ' made' ,,by tbejpacents ori -guardian, stating ' the t name, date, and! . place of birth and the school attended , by auch child. The register and affi davit herein provided for shall m de-i, mand be produced and shown for In spection to the person hereinafter pro- ' vlded for in this act, who shall creat , a board for the enforcement of the lawsi X of this state. The persona hereinafter', provided for in this act. who are created;, a board of inspection of child , labor ' shall bave the power to demand a cer tificate of physical fitness from some regularly licensed physician. In the casa' of a child under 16 years of age. who) . may seem physically unable to perform; the labor at which such, child may N employed, and no child under 16 shall be employed who cannot obtain auch ai . certificate.' - . A aupply of the notices and registers required by this act will be secured and can be obtained at 142 Third street ox at the office of the Portland Labor Press) , on. 8econd and Washington street. . In regard to the proper enforcing of? ., the law, it was decided to district the state and give each district to the on -.. of the child-labor commission who r sided nearest that point These people have the power and will use It to aeej that the law ia generally obeyed. , Sections 7 and provide penalties for violation of the law, specifying both a heavy fine or Imprisonment. - The pen alty Is made for both the parents or guardians allowing the child to be iim ployed and for the person or corporation by whom he is employed. ; . The work of redisricting the state) , will be accomplished at another meet ing, which will probably be held in this) city next week. . LAD 14 YEARS OLD HELPLESSLY DRUJiK Unlnlaaatv. Intoxicated.
