seems to be, iu his mind, no doubt
wnatever tbat the public school
teacher has no more right under
the constitution of the state of
Washington to read chapters from
the Bible than he has to read from
the Koran or the Talmud. As
there are no doubt manv teachers
in the state who now hold religious
services in their schools from
reasons of conscience or duty, it is !
quite probable that some of them
will continue this custom, and
that unbelievers will bring the
matter to test in the courts.

to the customs ports of entry on
tbe .Northwestern frontier, Assist
ant Secretary of the Treasury
Spanlding has satisfied himself
tbat Chinese are illegally enteriug

British officers at Vancouver say
that during the first six months of
the present year 7900 Chinese dis-
eniMirked at the port, yuooot which
number have crossed the bordar.
This evasion of the exclusion act
has been going on right along, but
now that such a high treasury
tbe assistant secretary
has seen it for himself either the
law as it stands will be rendered
effective, or else it will be sur
rounded by the proper safeguards
by the coming congress to alio it
to be so, if recommendation by

GuTtiRiB, O. T., Sept. 22.
Simultaneous with the arrival of
the hour of noon, the homeseek-
ers gathered on the border and
made a headlong rush over tbe
line into the coveted country and
on to tbe quarter section upon
which their eyes had been feasting
for some days, and others for
weeks and months. The rush was
a mad one and was made so by
the fact that the number of home-
seekers greatly exceeded tbe num
ber ol Quarter sections available
for settlement. There is room on
the lands for about 6000 settlers,
allowing 100 acres for each. There
were on the border, waiting to
claim the available land, fully
15,000 people, so that there were
three people for each quarter sec
tion. It was no wonder then that
the rush was a mad one. Like
scenes were never witnessed be'
fore except in Oklahoma two
years ago.
KILLED BY A TRAIN.
An Old Lady Knocked OAT m TrasUe
By Locomotive,
Healdsbubq. Cal.. Sept. 22. A
fatal accident occurred on a trestle
over a small creek near this city
yesterday afternoon. As tbe sontb
bouud train rounded a curve just
beiore going on tarn trestle, a man
was seen walking across it with a
small child in his arms. The engi
neer blew the whistle aad reversed
tho engine, and the man ran back
ami climbed down tbe embank
ment. Xle and the baby escaped
injury. A stout woman, who was
near tbe center of the trestle, also
beard tbe whistle, but was too far
from the end to escape. The
trestle was too short for the train
to be stopped before reaching her.
and she was struck by the pilot
and knocked off the trestle, failing
a distance of hfteen feet. Ibe train
was stopped and. the conductor
and a number of passoBgef ran
back to the injured woman but she
was so badly injured she died in a
few minutes. She was identified
as Mrs. Jane .Rowland, a widow
about 05 years of age, residing in
San Francisco. She bad been in
attendance at the Adventist camp
meeting, and was returning to the
amp ground from town wben tbe
accident occurred.

THE REBEL'S VICTORY.
It May Stronsly Affect the Plata
or the Saltan.
London. Sept. 22. The news of
the capture of Sana by the rebels
in Yemen, says a Constantinople
dispatch, is almost a stunning
blow to tbe sultan, who for weeks
past baa been plunged in anxiety
over tbe situation- in Arabia.
Western Europeans are hardly
capable of appreciating the sultan's
feelings oa tins subject, but to
him the fate of Arabia is of room
importance even than that of
Constantinople. Should be loae
control of the holy cities of the
Mohammedan faith, he would be
divested of all prestige and become
an object of contempt and abhor
rence to his subjects. His anxiety
regarding this matter is so strong
that it has nearly driven thim in
sane. Sana is the key to Yemen,
and the loss of it ia a moat over
whelming blow to Turkish supre
macy in that rich and fertile prov
ince, and may lead to the loaa of
all Arabia. Tbat country contains
emirs who ignore the authority
of the porte, and if these should
unite against Turkey, the saltan
would have a difficult war on his
hands. Tbe Turkish troops in
Yemen went there without pro
visions or money, with orders to
live on the country. They won
some success at first, but probably
disheartened by their own condi
tion, they appear to have lost
ground. Should Arabia be sepa
rated from tbe porte, tbe religious
passion such an event woold ex
cite, in the opinion of Europeans
at Constantinople, would imperil
the life as well as tbe throue of
the sultan.

RELIO Or TBI REVOLUTION.
What the Difference Ia.
The Montesano Vidttte answers
an important question, simply and
very much to the point when it
says: "Some of the democratic
papers, commenting on the fact
that English syndicates have been
buying up American manufactories,
ask the question, 'What is the
iitference whether the manufac
ories are in England or America
f Englishmen are to own them ?'
just tne same ainerence there is
between a manufactory owned by
facoma parties and run in Monte
sano. and one owned by the same
parties anc run in Tacoma. The
place where it runs gets tbe bene
fit of the pay roll, and the farmers
and merchanda in the vicinity the
opportunity to supply the work
men."
