Russell Young, formerly, United |
States minister TO China, has arrived
on a visit to the Chinese minister,
with whom be had long interview.
After the interview Mr.. Young said
the Chinese we're troubled over the
new law, not so much because it in
terfered with immigration, which
was in English aud not Chinese in
terpsts. but because the manner OF

chinese. 1t was curious to see how

question as to whether the Chinese

canteen with sentry. A dispute
arose between them, which angered
the Texan, so he threw a beer bottle
at the soldier. The bottle struck the
sentinel on the nose, telling him to
the floor, where he bled like pig.
Instantly another soldier standing
by grabbed up a gun and charged
upon the Texan. Somebody grabbed
the soldier, which probably saved
the Texans life, for he would have
been pinioned to the wall. AS 1t
was, the bayonet tore through the
Texans side, ploughing through the
flesh covering the ribs aud making a
painful wound. The Texans rapid
ly hurried to the bowling alley, whicli
contained their friends, while the
soldier was removed TO the hospital.
The affair created great commotion
among the soldiers, who gathered
about the bowling alley yelling fOI
powder, ,and threatening to shoot the
whole outfit. Major Egbert appear
ed and had some trouble in quelling
the men, but finally succeeded In
doing so. He promised to fully in
vestigate the matter. The soldier
was able TO leave the hospital late al
night, but his face is mass of mu-
tilated flesh.

amazed Could it be that Viola was
planning TO lay siege on Evergree

reciprocation? The crimson was still
playing havoc with the poor girls face
when Grace Hawkins Numbered an
other broadside.
'Yes, and you know you came down
on the train with him from Richmond
in May. How did that happen?"
Viola recovered in time to say that
her meetings with Mr.. Nilved were
quite accidental.

Grace Hawkins had the floor or the
ground rather, again. The group were
on the Belden lawn which
sloped. down to the river near
where the crystal waters rippled in
thunder torrents over stony and
somewhat steep decline of eighty feet.

the Independence day ceremonies on

of hosting the stars and stripes to the

pride in executing the job. 1t always
