The situation in China at this writ ing is still "an unknown quantitv." There have been so maiy things publish ed and then contradicted it is next to impossible to see just how things are there. But taking the most honaful w jr view from the most favorable conditions there, an! the situation is one to be . 'ored. They are killing folks, and tha- alona makes every humane mind recoil and wish that the smoke of battle could ba fanned away forever by the sweet winga of peace, and that the sound of cannon could never again disturb the peace and quiet of the world. The great distress that persons of a supersensitive disposition endure is of sufficient frequency to have a place in a column of "pass ing events." Such parsons ar9 to be pitied many times when they artf condemned. It is tru6 that some one Las well said that people haye co business spreading their feelings so far around them that others will walk en them unawaras ; but the person of the very sensitive disposition does not every time know how far his feelings have gone an d sometimes perhaps we are not careful enough ourselves to keep off the feelings of other people that lie so broad around. J.H3 world poorly appreciates its loss in the death of a good and con scientious journalist. Too often they do personal work and set to work olhei agcmcies for the bet termor: t of the weiil loiiHp -.jjnd gft'iersiJ-. v.-UScu f ,v being rpijniztd as the real benefactor? to mantj AThat thay are. These reflections come from reading some of the tributes paid by tha Vir ginia press to Col. Cowardin,late editor of the Eichmond Dispatch. His death occurred in Richmond about two weeks ago. To be sure, the many ex pressions of appreciation of his worth a3 a rnsm and worth zs a journalist ahoTt the hish esteain in which he was held l y tha people of the State and the South generally; but even with al ibis his is the common lot of men who work as he worked. He did far more than any one yet reckons- It is gratifying to the world to see signs of an early termination of the war in South Africa. Tho sympathiz ers with the Boers will be glad to learn this as well as others not because the Boers will not be successful but b cause an end to the strife will cause so much suffering to cease. No people in all the history oi the world have .ever struggled more heroic ally than the Boers of South Africa, and they will be so remembered in the history of the wars of the century. And "while they have pledged never to surrender it is said that they are beginning to see the folly of continu ing human sacrifice to the satisfaction of keeping personal pledges. ! Let the war terminate and ' may we hear oi wars r0 more. Charity and Children remarks that from the many and handsome adver tisements which the newspapers are carrying for the different scboola and colleges of the State, the educational interest must be at high tide. It does look so indeed, and it is source of gratification to all lovers of intelligence and advancement. The day-dawn seems to be near when North Carolina will be fully aroused on the question of general education. - The Commonwealth renews its in quiry, "Are the young men of .North Carolina making sacrifices for educa tion as did many young men of former years?" We fear that in mauy cases the answer to this inquiry.il thorough ly expressed, would have to be a nega tive one. We seldom see young men wearing bome-epun clothes at college now, while in former years some of the best students at the college wore clothea spun and woven by their moth ers ,f -v; " jr 1 in famine's mm. INDIA'S GREAT SUFFERINGS. The InterDenominaticnal Committee. While the great heart of the Amcri can people is being stirred to its depth? by tales of snflering and starvation among the famine-ridden native3. oi India, one is apt to forget among the general now ol sympatny such stories excite, the noble and even heroic part our American missionaries are playing in th;.3 dark drama of famine and dis tress. With the pestilence raging on every side, and thousands dying daily ol disease and starvation, the mssion- aries haye bravely remained at their posts in the interior and, sided by their wives, and active helpers, have fought back the famine with the slender weap ons at their disposal, with a sublime faith in Providence and in the prompt generosity of the American people. How they are succeeding in this hand to hand battle with death may be gath ered in part from the report of a meet ing cf the Inter-denominational 'Mis sionary commit lea at Bombay, India, an account of which recently appeared in the Christian Herald. This Com mittee is composed of representatives of every protestant denomination now operating in the famine district. Rev. a. nume, oi tne a. a. v. n M. is Chairman, and the Rev. E. F. Frease, of tao Methodist Mission, Is Secretary This Committee was organized in In dia at the request of The Christian Her ald, to receive and distribute the money contributed by it3 readers and friends in America. After referring to general conditions, the report goes on to say : "There is no disguising the fact that the distress i3 increasingly scute and the mortality from starvation is now terrible and rap idly becoming larger. Over whole proyinces the conditions are worse than in 1897. " In one largj section 2ESCUED BY SALVATION ARMY W0EKEK8. eigbty-seyen persons in every hundred ;.re likely to perish." Only thirteen persons left alive where a short time ago there were a hundred. All the rest slowly and -painfully starved to death. And this is not in one parti cularly afflicted village but "through out a large section." A resolution passed y the commit tee requires all missionaries receiving funds through the Committee to use the money for the relief of the famine sufferers, and in no case to apply it to the mission work. It was also decided that in apportioning fund3 the main consideration should be the severity of the famine in the respective areas, attention being paid in each instance to the work already inaugaratedineach area and funds available from other sources. . - The QUITO, with its 200,000 bush elajaf corn, sent to Bombay by Tl9 Christian Herald, chartered by the Uni ted States government, laden with corn contributed by the American people, has reached its destination in safety and already Ihecorn has been widely dis tributed among the starving people. This com is ground by the native wo men in little hand mills, so familiar to us all in pictures of Oriental Hie, then mixed with water and baked in little flat cakes. Not exactly aT dainty meal to our fastidious taste, but one quart of corn treated in this way will keep life in a man or woman for three days, while a pint suffices for a child during the same period of time. Gilson Willets, the well knwn news paper correspondent, writing of the famine conditions during his recent trip through India, says : " "I have just returned from another and more extended tour bt the f:iminn CASTO For Infants and Children. . Tta Kind Ycu Uava Absjs tzzgil Bear the "Csietoteof. districts, and with mine own eyes haye verified the worst stories I have heard or read of the suffering and distress of these starvirsj people. Children wandering about like chips on the sea, people ' dying along the roadside from sheer lack of food, jackals and vultures feasting upon human flesh all these things are only too true. The land swarms with multitudinous living skeletons. I have grown ac customed to the eight of stomachs hol lowed out like basins. There is noth ing romantic in this form of suffering for starvation, in its visible form it is simply and only hideous. The aeath rate is appalling, despite the fact that the Government is doing its level best to save human life. The money raised and sent by England is doing a lot of good, but the money thus sent is not yet sufficient to cover the wide-spread distress nor the multi tude of sins on the part of the natives in charge of the Relief Works. - It is a pleasure to add, however, that the funds sent here by the people of America and entrusted to American Missionaries reach the sufferers in a direct way, and in such a way that five America dollars go farther and do rrore good than the same amount in English money. The scenes I have witnessed are heart rending in the extreme, and surely they serve to emphasizs the fact that the help of the American people is sadly needed. The money tent here from the United States through the Christain Herald is doing an amazing amount of good. And still more money is needed, for the rainy season approaches, and Heaven only Knows how these unsheltered sufferers are to be saved." Blood Thicker Than Water. Savannah News. "Blood is thicker thtu water" has become a historic phrase. The prob abilities are that most English speak ing men have used it at one time or another, and all have hoard it used. But how many know the origin ot it? How mauy Know that an American a Georgian, a Savanuahian gave cur rency to ths sentiment under circum stances which are recalled by current eyents in China? Forty-one years ago Captain (after ward Commodore) Jo3iah Tattnail, who was born in this city In 1795, was llag officer on the Asiatic Station ot the United States Navy. Arriving at bis post he found China at war with the allied English and French fleets. On July 25 ot that year, standing on tne deck his ship in the Pei-Ho, he saw the British vessels under firs of the Chinese forts. These were th6 Taku forts, where the foreign warships are now gathered. The fire from the torts wa3 proving terribly effective. At length Captain Tattaail could re sist the desire to interfere no longer. Uttering his memorable words to his executive officer, it is said he gave the signal for action, and his men respond ed gladly and promptly. Tattnail picked a crew to row him to the flag ship of the British fleet. hile his boat was between his own vessel and that of the British it was struck by a Chinese shell, which killed the cockswain and severely wounded Lieutenant Stephen uecatur Trench- ard. Tattnail's order wasfor the men to bend the harder to their oara. The Americans had then an added motive for fighting to ayenge their comrades. Boarding the British vessel Tattnail and his men pressed to the front and aided the British . in defeating the Chinese. It was a glorious victory, and tho British have al ways given - the brilliant American' high praise for his part in it Tattnall had of course viola ted the neutrality laws of the United States in thus going to the aid of the British. But public' opinion in this country be lieving with him that "blood is thick er than water," ' upheld him in his course ; so instead ot punishment, he receive 1 new honors. The sentiment was repeated and reciprocated on the p-irt of the British during our recent war with Spain. "It was an open secret that the British were our friends dur ing that war, so that the whole of Kurope was stopped from interfering in any manner with our operations againet the Spaniards.'

A legal battle for life which promises to be one ot the hardest ever faugh t in the courts ot this State began to-day, when Alexander J. Jester was brought to the bar for a murder done nearly 30 years ago. Jester is accused of having killed Gilbert Gates, brother of John W. Gates, former chairman of the board of directors of the American Steel and Wire Company. Jester is now 75 years of age, white- haired and feeble, and is a man of deep religious convictions. He quotes the Bible fluently, and has been aclo.re student of it, but the passages dealing with the wath of God and a future 8fnte of punishment in which the devil and a lake of brimstone and everlast i ng fire occur are the ones most ready to his tongue and most frequently quoted. Drinking, gambling, smoking and chewing he condemns as bad habits and has none of them. Card playing he believes is not intrinsically any more wrong than checker playing, but it Bhould be shunned, he says, because an appearance of evil goes with it. He is a man more than six feat tali and wilh his white hair and beard looks like a preacher. His two sons, Harvey and William, are here and his wife and daughter are coming early to-morrow morning. The whole of to-day was occupied in getting a jury to try the case. Mora than a dozen lawyers are in attendance W. S. Forrest, of Cnicago, represents John W. Gates in the prosecution. The State of Missouri is represented by T. T. Rhodes, of Paris, Mo ; J. H. Rhodes, of Sedalia ; C. P. Johnston, of St. Loni, and J. W. Hays, of New London. The lawyers for Alexander J. Jester are Cullen & Mclntyre, of Mexico, Mo., Judge David Eby, of Hannibal, presides at the trial. In its intricacies the story covers a dozen States. A. A. Gates was a resi dent of West Chicago in 1870. Gilbert and John W. Gates were his sons, the former, 19 years old, being the elder. Chr!e3 Hazlehurst, a neighbor, pre pared to move to Kansas. Gilbert Gates, with his father's best team and wagoti.wen twith Hazlehunit taking a load of household gooes Ha zlehnrst settled at Towanda, Kan, Gilbert Gates was not pleased with thc- ountry, however, and in Jsnuarv, 1871 he started for home with tho sams outfit he took a way. Alexander J. Jester, then 48 years old, was living in valley Centre, near Towanda. Jester had a wife and six children, but, leaving them behind, r:e started overland for a visit to his o;d home at Dal ton. Ind. Near Fort Scott Jester overtook the boy Gates, and from that point they travelled together through Missouri. It 13 alleged that Jester killed Gates on this trip and took his effects away. Jester went to Dalton, Ind., and then back home to Kansas. When young Gates did not reach home, his father took up the trial and had Jester ar rested at Valloy Centre, Kan. Jester was extradited by the Missouri ,autho rities and taken, to Paris, Mo., in June, 1871. The Monroe County Grand Jury indicted him. The trial was set but Jester took a change of venue to Audrain county. He was impmioned at Mexico, and in January, 1872, he escaped to Northern Texas, where, un der the name ot W. A. Hill, he is said to have gone to work for a ranchman. Jester's wife and family were in Kansas. In Texas, however, the pro secution asserts, he met and married Julia Reynolds, and they had several children. In 1889 Jester went to Ok lahoma. It is asserted that he was married again, and soon aftcrwarC divorced, and toat within three months he Wft3 married a fourth time and again divorced. - He was about to marry again, when, In June, 1899, hia sister, Mrs. Calvin Street, wrote to the Sheriff of Sedgwick county, Kan., saying that Jester was living in Shawnee, Okla., under the alias of W. A. Hill. His arrest and the prppent trial resulted. " ' The prosecution will present a long and seemingly unbroken chain ol cir cumstantial evidence The principal points cf the dafeuce are: that -Gates was seen aiive alter tne fate oi tne supposed murder, and that there is no proof of his death, in spite of tho ef forts of hia brother to nd ;t. - TheJ trial is expectei to last e?ght weeks.
