. THE WAR IN CHINA.
Tien TsiD, July 15, Chinese from the
walled city report that the foreieners in
Pekin are leving, haying taken shelter
in a bomb-proof building.
About 7000 ChineHe were' engaged in
the battle here July 11. More are com
ing from Pekin. A large part of the
walled city was burned last night and
today the Chinese held a perfect orgie,
plundering, smashing houses and fight
ing like demons over stores of silks,
furs and jewelry. Hundreds of dead
Chinamen are along the walls, women
and children killed by shrapnel are
lying among the smoking ruins.
London, July 24 The Foreign Office
has received a dispatch from the British
Consul at Tien tsin, dated July 21, stat
ing that he had just received a letter
from the British Minister at Pekin, and
dated July 4, appealing for relief. There
were enough provisions at the legation
to last a fortnight, the latter said, but
ihe garrison was unequal to the task of
r ilding out against a determined at
riack for many davs.
Washington, July 24. Mr. Wu, the
Chinese minister, said tonight that he
hoped that the reply of Minister Conger
ai reinn to trie second message sent to
him by Mr. Hay would be received
with , more expedition than the first,
which came last Friday. The message
and response took nine days. Evi
dently Mr. Wu places some hope on the
taik of the removal of the foreign Min
isters to Tien Tsin, and he suggested
that possibly one of the important mes
sages received from China in the near
future would be "Conger is in Tien
Tsin." ,
. Anarchy la Fekln.
Che Poo, July 24. General Li, com
manding the Pei Tang forts, near Taku,
reports to the British office that a run
ner who left Pekin July 14 reports that
Pekin was in a state of absolute anar
chy ; that the regular troops were fight
ing the Boxers, and that the latter were
getting the better of the struggle; that
the ammunition of the legation guards
was exhausted, and that they were use
ing their refles; that the guards recently
rushed the walls and silenced the Chin
ese guns, and that a-number of Chinese
officials were desirous of protecting the
foreigners, but were in the minority.
Geu. Li is anxious to avoid fighting tbe
allies.
ItUHMiu Holds tli Railroad.
Tien Tain, July iU.-JHie Russians an
nounce their intention to keep control
of the entire railway line between T.iku
and Pekin, until the conclusion of hos
tilities, when they propose, they say, to
restore it to the Chinese. The French
are endeavorir to obtain cootrol of ah
the river tugs.
WOOL.
There seems to be no market in
Heppner now, and buyers have all left.
Ttie production of the territory trib
utary to Heppner amounts to 3,000,000
pounds this season. Of this amount
2,000,000 pounds are now in the two
Heppner warehouses, one-half million
is on the ranches wliere it was raised,
and a half million lias been sold at
from 10 to 13 cents. No one in the wool
bnttinpss seems to be looking for any
immediate activity.
The Boston wool market' continues
quiet, although ome bonsen are mak
ing inquiry for wool by manufacturers.
Prices are generally nominal for fine
medium and line territory. While
staple lot call for MSIJc, fleece wools
continue in a nominal position, with
practically nothing doing and prices
largely guesswork. Quotations:

test the steadiness of their eye and
strength of muscle.
Mr. Boyntot, of TJkiab, haB

behind the counter of the refresh
ment and confectionary stand in
the dance hall as he displays hit;
sweets to his patronB.
Quite a number of mountain
trout are being caught by lovers of
angling. It is amusing to see little
Baby Warren feasting on two or
three big trout at a meal and not
satisfied at that. The little girle
are having a fine time roaming
over the hills in search of goose
berries and huckleberries, and not
a few of the little tots come in with
smiling faces to show their "buck
ets nearly full."

a bath room, one story cottage, and
will be supplied with hot and cold
water from the springs, which will
take 250 feet of piping to conduct
the water from the springs to the
house. The piping is made of
bored trees. The cottage will be

Powder
Economy
The manufacturers of Royal
Baking Powder have always declined
to produce a cheap baking powder
at the sacrifice of quality.
The Royal is made from the
most highly refined and wholesome
ingredients, and is the embodiment
of all the excellence possible to be
attained in the highest class baking
powder.
Royal Baking Powder costs only
a fair price, and is cheaper at its
price than any similar article.
ROYAL BAKING POWDER CO.,
THE WIDE, WIDE WEST.
One of the officials at the state
capital recently had occasion to
attend to some business for an
eastern man. At the conclusion
of the business, the gentleman
thanked the official for his kind
ness and said: ' I am gratified and
yet surprised at the treatment I
bave received in Oregon, and in
fact all over the Northwest Every,
where out here I have been treat
ed more like a human being than
a dog. Take it bask east, and one
goes iDto the presence of a state or
railway official with the expecta
tion of paving his head taken oil'
his shoulders. They are very
crisp. 1 heir demeanor is freezing.
Their sneers and sarcasm are all
for you Bhould you ask one more
question than seems to them to be
absolutely necessary. There is no
accommodation, no apparent in
terest in humanity. Their voices
have a metallic ring, suggestive of
business and business alone, and to
hold a publio position in the East
is to be exalted to a great height,
socially and otherwise, above the
common herd. I'ersons with busi
ness, unless they happen to be
millionaires or persons with equal
rank in office, approach these East
ern officials with the conscious
idea that they will be snubbed at
some time during the interview.
Out west, I fiDd the officials, from
County Clerk up to Governor of
your state, ready and glad to im
part any reasoualile information
within their power, and it makes
an Eastern man feel as though he
had struck a new country and a
new people, to be in this great
Northwest. I am delighted with
both Oregon and her people."

Samples of mixtures made in imitation oi baking

to use in food, and in many cities their sale is
