Baby is sick.-The woeful expression
OF Des Moines teamster's countenance
showed his deep anxiety was not entire
ly without cause, when he inquired of a
druggist of the same city what was best
to give baby for cold2 1t was not me-
cessary for him to say more, his counte-
nance showed that the pet of the family.
II not the idol of his life was in distress.
I'VE give our baby Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy" was the druggists answer
81 don't like to give the baby such strong
medicine" said the teamster. You know
John Oleson, of the Waters Talbot Print
ing Co., don't you? inquired the drug
gist. "His baby, when eighteen months
old, got hold of bottle of Chamberlain s
Cough Remedy and drank the whole of
it. OF course it made the baby vomit
very freely but did not injure it in the
least, and what is more, it cured the ba-
by's cold. The 'teamster already knew
the value of the Remedy, having used it
himself, and was now satisfied that there
was no danger in giving it even to a
baby. For sale by Snipes & Kinersly.

A Live.y Ere.

About ten minutes after 4 O'Clock
this morning the loud screeching of an
engine whistle at the company's shops
gave warning of fire. After while the
bell responded and the fire boys turned
out to find that the fire was located in
the barn of Mr.. John Marden, situated
about hundred feet from his residence.
By the time the engine arrived the
building and contents we're a mass of
flames from which it was impossible to
to save anything. The barn contained
twelve hacks and one buggy, the prop
erty of Messrs. Gibbons, Macallister &
Co., and some tools belonging to Mr..
Marden. Everything was lost, and the
worst of it is there was no insurance on
either building or contents. The whole
property lost is estimated at about
$1,000. The fire is supposed to have
been the work of an incendiary. About
an hour before it started Mr.. VanBibber
passed within few feet of the place on
his way to the city and saw no indica-
tion of fire. The door of the barn was
locked and there was no place for the
ingress of tramps except by back win
dow, which was kept nailed up.
Whether this window had been tam
pered with or not and the fire started
from the inside, it is impossible to tell.

A Big New LoophoIe for Chinese.

SAN Francisco, Aug. 1.-THE habeas
corpus case OF Lau Enbeur, one of the
Chinese passengers who arrived here last
week on the steamship Oceanic, was post
poned in the circuit court today for a
week. The petitioner was refused a land
ing on his arrival here, on the
strength of the decision of
the United States supreme court,
rendered by Judge Field, to the effect that
all Chinese returning to this country must
have a certificate from the Chinese gov
erment establishing their identity as mer-
chants. Collector Phelps today received a
telegram from Acting-Secretary Nettle-
ton, of the treasury department,
stating that Chinese who may have
gone from the United States
under the instructions contained in
the departments circular of July 3, 1890,
may be admitted on their return to this
country under the conditions prescribed
in the said circular. providing the collector
is satisfied of the identity of the returning
Chinese. 1t is believed that under this
modified ruling, majority of the 10
Chinese brought here by the Oceanic will
be allowed to land.

by Citizens of United States.

by Citizens of United States.
NEW YORK, Aug. 1.-THE following dis
patch has reached the Associated Press
from San Salvador today. 1t had no sig
nature but doubtless emanated from Of
ficlal sources:
SAN SALVADOR, Aug. 1.-THE reports pub
lished recently in New York, touching the
revolution in San Salvador, are altogethcr in
accurate. They were doubtless based on cir
cumstances connected with the passage of sew
era San Salvadorian refugees from Nicaragua to
Guatemala on board the Pacific mail steamer
City of Panama. Among the refugees
was Losandro Latona, man who has
been guilty of common crimes and
against whom criminal charges have
been preferred in San Miguel The court de-
manded that Latona be surrendered. The cap
tain of the Panama, in direct collation. of law
refused to deliver him, but weighed anchor and
sailed away without permission fl m the cap
tain OF the port. By this act he rendered the
vessel liable to the penalty of confscation.
Such was the origin of the false reports which
have been published. 1t should be borne
I'm mind that the authorities of San
Salvador have respected existing treaties
and made no demand for the surrender of any
other refugees on board the Panama. 1t is
serious matter that the government of the
United States should set our interests at de-
fance, though Justice is manifestly on cur side.
6uiely then we have fallen on times when the
right OF force prevails over the force OF right

Professor Mark w. Harrington, who de-

England, was born in 1913 near Sycamore,

Michigan in 1868, when he entered the de-
partment of biological science in that uni
versity as instructor. In 1870 he went to
Alaska to make astronomical observations
for party sent out by the United States
coast survey, and in 1876 he went TO Leip-
sic to study in the university. He was
during that year appointed professor of
astronomy and mathematics in the school
of the Chinese foreign Office at Pekin. He
became director of the astronomical OBJ

PRESSURE ON CHINA.
Great Powers Demand Discon-
tinuance of Outrages.
THE GOVERNMENT BEFuSES.
secrect Societies Desire an Attack by
Europeans, That the Empire May Fai
and Endless Anarchy Prevail.

TEN TsrN, Aug. 1.-THE ministers OF
the foreign mowers have increased the
pressure which has been placed upon tne
Chinese government. insisting upon the
punishment of the rioters ana OF tne
officials who neglected to afford protection
to foreigners and their property. Inc ior-
eign ministers do not demand pecuniary
indemnity, having already se'tieu 'ii@'
with the local authorities.
LONDON, Aug. 1.-THE Standard says:
Should China persist in her present atti-
tude grave consequences threaten, ana no
one sees the issue. This is what the
shrewder of the Kolao and other secret So
cieties desire. They hope to involve the
government with foreign powers and thus
distract it. knowing that il the powers at
tack China the empire will probably col
lapse and the whole country fall into
state of anarchy. which may not be sup
pressed in our time. Happily European
diplomats understand this condition of
affairs. and knowing how desperately
fragile is the imperial authority in China,
will persuade others to deal with the mat
ter in gingerly manner.

on foreigners and others. The combined
fleets of the powers may be called upon at
any moment to take effective action look
ing to redress for the outrages by the
Chinese government. At present state
of great excitement prevails at the increas-
ing tension between the Chinese govern
ment and the ministers OF the foreign
powers. From all appearances, the former
is obstinate in its refuse, to redress
the injuries done to foreigners
during the recent riots. If the
Chinese authorities do not yield to the
firm demands of the ministers of the
powers, concerted hostile action on the
part of the vessels of the various nations
represented in these waters is imminent.
Such state of affairs is known TO exist,
and hence foreign ministers have been
compelled to inform the Chinese govern
ment that a joint naval demonstration of
an effective nature, in which the French,
American, British and German squadrons
will take part, will be ordered in the near
future unless speedy reparation be made
for injuries, outrages and abuses COM
planned of by the ministers of the powers.
