, THE WAR IN CHINA.
Pekin, Aug. . 21. Prince Ching
ib endeavoring to open negotiations
with the allies.
Yu Heien, governor of Shanghai,
has sent a memorial to the throne
asking for a reward for having in
vited 52 foreigners under his pro
tection, and for having afterwards
killed them.
In the provisional government
established, each nationality ad
ministers a section of the city ac
cording to its own ideas.
London, Sept. 4. The latest re
liable Pekin date is now nearly a
fortnight old. An nndated dis
patch has been reoeived at Vienna
reporting that the allied troops
marched through the Imperial
Palace Aug. 28, but it was known
that this date had been fixed by
the allied commanders for a formal
promenade. There is no other
news of any kind.
Tbe Germans, Austrians and
Italians will remain in Pekin after
the Russians withdraw.
Pekin, Aug. 30. Three more
members of the Tsung li Yamun
have been executed by the Em
press. There is no government in Pekin.
The Japanese and Eussians still
remain outside the innermost pal
aces of the Forbidden City. The
Germans desire to burn everything
and avenge the death of Baron von
Ketteler.
Yesterday waB quiet in the sec
tion allotted to the Americans. Its
condition is in great contrast to
the other foreign sections, where
thieving still continues. The credit
is due to General Chaffee's procla
mation, forbidding looting and
offering fair pay for provisions.
It has been ascertained that the
positions held by the Legationers
during their Beige were under
mined by the Boxers, and in a few
days more the mine would have
been sprung.
The anti-foreign element all fol
low the flight of tbe court Looting
continues and the Boxers concealed
in several different sections' of the
city still keep up a desultory tire,
The streets are picketed by the
allied troops.
According to numerous reports.
the many thousands of Boxers who
were scattered on the arrival of the
allies are again massing to attack
Pekin. These rumors create great
uneasiness.
The Japanese have captured 5000
bushels of rice and silver bullion
to the amount of $2,000,000. In
Tien Tein tbe Americans have cap
tured silver bullion to the value of
half a million dollars.
Resident Amerioans think the
city onght to be completely de
stroyed, that Na Tung and Chung
Li should be beheaded, sinoe they
formed part of the cabal which
caused the murder of Baron von
Ketteler and attempted to massa

cre all foreigners, and that no leni
ency should be shown or the next
generation of Chinamen will re
peat the crime.
The Uritisn forces met nve miles
to the westward of Pekin 300 Box
ers and 2000 regular Chinese
troops. The latter fled without a
shot and the Boxers .followed suit
after losing 70 men.
Washington, Sept. 4. A dis
patch was received today from
Gen. Chaffee at Pekin as follows:
"Present conditions are that hos
tilities have practically ceased,
only occasional shots being fired
from cover; small party repairing
telegraph line and . foraging. No
considerable body of Chinese troops
(Boxers) discovered here or along
the line of communication.
"We hear Li Hung Chung has
full power, but he is not here.
Will United States keep troops
here until terms of peace are ar
ranged? Now in China, about
5000 effective. I think ample force
for United States unless political
reason, not apparent to me, de
mands larger. If, troops remain
must winter iu tents and conical
wall tents will be required, one
tent 10 men. Escort wagons will
be required immediately. No more
pack trains required, wagon trans
portation best. Water falling in
river rapidly, muni soon haul sup
plies 40 miles. Satisfied railroad
will not be repaired before river
freezes.
It was stated at the War depart
ment that our position was un
changed; if Russia withdraws her
troops then General Chaffee will
do the same. Meanwhile, it is
gathered that conditions in China
are still disordered and foreign life
and property are still unsafe.
It is rumored that the Cossacks
mercilessly butchered men, women
and children in the villages on the
Amur river and flung their corpses
into the stream. These stories are
confirmed by an official order just
issued couched in a mild note ad
mitting the massacres, which are
described as caused by exasnera
tioa against the Chinese for begin
ning hostilities and threatening
the utmost severity of martial law
for any future violence to unarmed,
peaoeful Chinamen, at tbe same
time ordering the police through
out the Amur district to compel
the town and country population
to drag the Chinese corpses out of
the river and bury or burn them,
in order to prevent an outbreak of
lnlection.

BOGUS JACKRABBITS.
What do tbe people generally think
of this Belgian bare fad that is taking
the country ? asks the Arlington Inde
pendent. The most likely thing ia that
a good many people are going to get a
lesson of experience when this little
bubble of enthusiasm breaks and rabbit
steak slinks on the market. Somebody
ia going to be out some fancy prices,
and it will be only a matter of where
the little band points when the wheel
of fortune stops revolying. Tbe whole
thing is a fake intended to catch the
misguided.
At the ratio these little animals are
said to increase, it is only a question of
a short time when the farmers of the
country will be seriously plagued by
the overplus of production. It is a
question that may well claim the farm
ers' attention before they are over
burdened with a nuisance that is sure
to result from their culture.
HOMES ARE HERE.
Everett White, who came here last
spring and went right to work, has
found a good home for himself, and
filed a homestead on it. It contains 160
acres, and is well watered by 5 springs
and the east fork of Willow creek. It
has much good timber, and is only
mile from school.
Many other such good homes may be
found in Morrow county if home-hunters
will hunt them op.

There's many a big,

who is weak In the

kind of man, who, when a cough attacks
him, roe galloping down the toad
toward consumption. Many such a man
has found strength and healing for weak
lungs and tissues lacerated by coughing
and drained by hemorrhages, in the use
of Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discov
ery. The healing power of this medi
cine in pulmonary diseases seems little
short of marvelous at times, so extreme
are the conditions which it cures. The

no narcotics.

New York. N. Y.. Boa I had a regular
consumptive cough, of which I was afraid, and
everybody cautioned me and warned me con

very pale and had no appetite, whatever. Now
my condition ia changed entirely. I do not
cough at aU, have gained eight pounds In
