that reminds me of May Pennington;
she's got a lovely new wrap, and John
Strut says-you know John; his sister
married Charley Black-wonder what
she ever saw in Charley! I'm sure l
never could endure him, he isn't 4 bit
good-looking, and then he's SO stupid

you seen Johns new turnout? 1t is

Edgar M. Forrest, a reformed gam
bier and drunkard, is holding exciting
and profitable revival meetings in Mis-
souri,. He says that he was converted
about six years ago while running a
faro game in Parsons, Kan. One night,
while dealing, being then several hun
dred dollars ahead Of the game, he says
that he felt as though a hand was laid
on his shoulder, saying: ''Stop!' So
impressed was he with the thought that
it was the hand of God, that he threw
all the winnings upon the table and
exclaimed: Fright here I quit" He
went to work the next day %exhorting
the drunkard and the gambler to fol-
low his example.-M. Y. Telegram

= Troubles with China

WASHINGTON, September 18.-The fol
loving report has just been received at
the State Department:
LEGATION OF THE UNITED STATES,
Pekin. July 16, 1886.
To BGyard. Secretary of State:
have the honor to report that on
the 18th instant, l received from
Consul Seymour, at Canton, the follow
ing dispatch:
CANTON, July 11th, 1885.
Minister DENLY, of PeEin:
Stone and pile work has been renewed
vigorously to ruin the south channel.
Frater and myself demonstrated against
the unfri, ndly act. Joint actions of the
Legations and ConsulateS are desirable.
SEYMOUR, Consul.
sent copy of this telegram to Sir
John Walsham, H. B. NJ. Minister.
He had already received a similar one
from Her Majesty's CONSUL He
furnished me copy OF his pro
test, which is herewith VI. enclosed.
/ also add ressed to Ysmen a dispatch
OF which l enclose a copy. This ques-
ton has been repeatedly fully presented
by all the ministers, myself included.
Yamen seems determined to adhere to
the suicidal policy. I did not anticipate
-uch an action in Canton, as has been
taken.
L am, sir, your obedient servant,
CHAs DENBY.
Following is copy of Denby's com
muniCalion to the Chinese foreign Off
Ger, dated July 18th.
The United States Minister has the
honor TO state that he has been placed
in the receipt of Geographic cOmmuni-
cation from The United States Con-
sui at Canton, to the effect
that many stones have been sunk
and PREPARATIONS been made for
driving piles at Shalee Barrier, between
the port and Whampoa. During his
recent visit at Canton, the United States
minister inspected the said barrier. 1t
can easily be removed at q cost not ex-
ceeding 81 900. 1t is a serious detri-
ment to commerce, and of no use as a
means Of defense. 1t would no stand q
moment in the way OF an attacking
force 1t cannot be conceded that under
the treaties any country has right to
DESTROY ACCESS TO its pots. In the
time of war they may be bOckaded, but
under the international law distractions
must be remov5 d when the war
ceases. If one port can be thus
closed to large vessels, all can,
and commerce would come to an end,
and the treaties become worthless. l
do not elaborate these arguments for
the want of time and for the further
reason that L understand that the
British minister has presented similar
views at length; besides 1t has been pre-
sented to your highness and your
excellencies before. i beg your high
ness and your excellencies 20 believe
that in making this protest against the
putting of distractions IL the CantLn
River, [ am governed as much OF g
friendly feeling toward China as by 8
public duty"

The Baum Failure

SAN FRAKcIsco, September 16.--Solo-
mon Sweet, assignee OF J. Paum & Co g,
wholesale clothiers, OF this city, whose
failure was announced yesterday, fur
nished this afternoon g preliminary
statement OF the assets and liabilities OF
the firm. The liabilities in San Fran
cisco are S538. 600; New York $4,000.
Total liabilities. 1913 coo Assets in San
Francisco, $500 000;in New Y Ork, S25 600
Total assets, $685. 600. This amount
includs J. Baum's residence, real estate
and some personal property, but does
not include the private property Of his
two partners, Henry and MoTIi
Schreer. In the statement OF liabilities
the Eastern Indebtedness is TlaCo1 ~
$50, 900. The principal local c-,,-----
among whom are four of the most pro-
minent banks, are pretty well secured,
and az the assets, as shown by the
assignee, are well up 10 the liabilities, It
is not expected that the Individual
losses will be heavy. No clear reasons
are vet assigned for the failure, but il is
known thatit was partly caused through
the shrinkage of the Vulcan Powder
stock, and stock held BY members OF
the firm in other powder companies.
Their losses in powder stocks alone are
over $780, COZ. Although the sudden
collapse Of what was considered strong
house has excited some comment, II has
not excited any prejudicial effect On
business. Money continues abundant
at easy rates.

Ehladelphian was not there to be
thra he'd without struggle, and he was
back again, banging sway at the cham
plon with but little effect C, rtainly, but
with remarkably good Intentions.
There was no doubt now about the
character of the contest; Sullivan meant
to knock his man if he could.
The two fou ht wind for
perhaps q minute. and then clinched.
There was desperate mitigating, and
Heard was forced over the ropes. The
referee cried. "bresk awav,' but there

minutes. Heard sh ok himself
and laughed while he was being sponged
and rubbed down. He did not look
much the worse for the rough handling
he had received. Sullivan was not hurt
but he was very, very mad. He had
evidently found more powers of resist
ance in the Philadelphia boy than he
expected.
The second round opened with
cautious sparring. Sullivan was wary
and Harald little apprehensive of the
giant s rushes. This time Harald was
the attacking party. He had made up
his mind that he must fight
and he was determined TO do
his BE- t. He tried to get at Sulli-
vans face. but hit short. In an instant
he was in the embrace of his antagonist
who pounded HIM on the head. face
and neck with all the force of his
braWny right aru until Heard stepped
away and gave Sullivan a drive under
the eye that was one clean
pion. The latter seemed staggered
for an ms taut, and was apparently too
surprised to do more than protect him
sell from the bows that Hearld was
showering on him.
Here occurs break in the report

supreme effort, and with an
upper cut under the chin. sent
Harald fat on his back, a clean
knock down. Hara.d was up like
a flash, and they clinched. The fight
had become a mere rough and
tumble, Hearld slipped and fell
again, when the chief OF police
and his officers rushed in and
with difficulty separated them.

Ivan dashed at the representative
OF a New York paper, and the latter
reached toward his pistol pocket, but
the police dlsarmed him and forced
Sullivan into his chair. Referee Newell
then declared Sullivan the winner
while Hearld's hacker protested that
his man was still anxious to
fight. Sullivan then addressed the
press representatives, in which he
complimented Hearld for his pluck,
boosted of his own talent" and
| declared himself still ready to defend
his title of champion against all
