lazro. of Naples, Italy, has come to
New York with the avowed intention
of marrying an American heiress and
in evidence of his earnestness recent¬
ly advertised to this effect.
“There is more money in New York
than in all Europe,” he said, when
asked why he came to New York in¬
stead of going to some other large
t'ffy. ».
"You see.” sairl the marquis, “I am
young and would like a young and
beautiful bride with a large dowry.
So I come here to find it. American
girls are beautiful beyond all others."
The marquis thinks New York is
the Mecca of heiresses.

dowry, he said:

EDUCATIONAL CONFERENCE.
Delegates Arriving at Richmond^Dr.
Abbott on Negro Question.
Richmond, Va., April 22.—Delegates
to the educational conference contin¬
ue to arrive on every, train and as to
numbers and interest it is already
clear the gathering will be a great
success. The first meeting will- take
up at 3:30 this afternoon and the for¬
mal opening occurs tonight. Among
the delegates is Dr. Lyman Abbott,
who this morning gave out an inter¬
view ion “The Negro Question.” He
said , among other things:
I think in the main, relations be¬
tween the blacks and whites in the
south are hatter than they are in the
north; that doors to industry relation*
are more open to the negro in the
Sotnh than in the north; that if he Is
industrious, honest and teasonably in¬
telligent, he has, on the whole, a bet¬
ter chance in the south than in the
north; and to put the whole thing in a
fenv sentences, if I were a n*gro. I
would rather live in a southern than
in a northern state.
"i must add the qualification,” Dr.
Abbott added, “that probably there are
exceptional communities in the south
where the negro is subjected to ex¬
ceptional prejudice and- possibly ex¬
ceptional communities in the north
where he may enjoy exceptional priv¬
ileges.”
RUSSIANS MASSACRE CHINESE.
Two Hundred Reported Ruthlessly
Shot In Manchuria.
Tokyo, April 10, via Victoria, B. C..
April 22.—The latest‘news from Man¬
churia is to the effect that the sec¬
ond evacuation by the Russians was
to have begun on the 8th instant, when
New Chwang was to have been hand
ed over to the Chinese.
Recently there have been grounds
for uneasiness. The Russians were
reported to have unneeessaril.i
strengthen their “railway guards" an<
20,000 Russian troops were said t<
have been concentarated at Feu
Whang, on the Yalu river, command
log the northern border of Korea
which is looked upon as Japan’s ape
ctel ward.
Another report has it that a second
Blagovestchensk massacre on a small
scale has take-n place at a place called
Erbgane, In the northern Manchu¬
rian province of Hei Lung Chiang,
when 200 inoffensive Chines* placer
miners had been ruthlessly shot down
by Russian troops. It is impossible
to verify these reports.

Cured by One Buttle or chamberlain’s

“When I hud Bn attack of the

actually cured myself with one
bottle of Chamberlain’s Cough
Remedy,’’says Frank W. Perry,
edilcr of the Enterprise, Sborts-
vlile, N. Y. “This is the honest
truth. I at times kept from oough-
ing myself to pieoes by taking a tea¬
spoonful of this remedy, and when
the ooughing spell would come on
at night I would take a dose and It
seemed that in the briefest interval
the cough would pass off and I
would go to sleep perfectly free
from cough and its accompanying
pains. To say that the remedy
acted as a most agreeable surprise is
putting it very mildly. 1 had no
idea that it would or could kuock
out the grip, simply because I had
never tried it for suoh a purpose,
hot it did, and it seemed with the
second attack of coughing the
remedy caused it to not only be of
lee* duration, but the paitis were
far less severe, aod I bad not need
the contents of one bottle before
