The Womans Columbian Club of Dodge
City shipped horn chair last Saturday
to the Worlds Fair towards furnishing
the parlor of the womans building. The
chair cost about one hundred dollars, and
was one of the finest ever seen in this
part of the country. At the organization
of the club it was decided to send horn
chair. The fact of Dodge City being the
greatest shipping point in the world for
cattle in her early days making it very
suitable representation of our county.
The few earnest workers who succeeded
in getting the chair deserve the apprecia-
ton of our county. A silver plate pre-
sented by the mayor with Dodge City
and the monogram of the Woman's Co.
lumbar Club was put on the chair.

must destroy every vestige of paternaiism

system is demonstration of gold and sill

China May Retsiiate Unless Congress

CLEvELASD. Aug. PA gentleman in
this city has just received from a friend in
Tien-Tsin, China, letter stating that
United States Consul Bowman, who left
the city short time ago for the
United States. carried with him message
from Viceroy Ii Hung Chang to President
Cleveland, in which the viceroy states
that he appreciates the good intentions of
the president and secretary OF state,
and thanks them for their effort
to secure kind and Just treatment
of Chinese residing in the United States.
lie feels keenly the unfriendly nature and
injustice of the Geary law. but China will
take no action thereon until the next ses-
sion of the United States congress, in the
hope that the Geary law may be modified
or repealed.
If the next congress decides to enforce
the law China will at once retail
ate; friendly relations between the
two countries will be broken off
and laws will be enacted looking
toward the expulsion of all Americans
from China. Meantime. instructions have
been issued to all Chinese officials to take
especial care to protect all American cit
liens living in China from violence.

Another Mar. Island scandal.

VALLEJO, Cal. Aug. 22-The court of
inquiry instituted at Mare island navy
yard for the purpose of inquiring into
the charges and counter charges preferred
by Maj. Henry A. Bartlett. commandant
of the marine barracks. and Capt Henry
Clay Corchoran, of the marine corps,
against each other. has commenced taking
testimony in the case. The rirst witness
called was Corp. Birdsall, who testified to
the effect that McKeag. who is en-
ployed by Mrs. II. NJ. Cuts,
at the marine barracks canteen,
had some words with Sergt. Dietz,
who was sergeant of the barracks guard
Capt. Corchoran will place Sergt. Dietz on
the stand. and the case promises
to be bitterly contested on both
sides, as it involves clash of
authority between the two marine officers.
The barracks barroom. or canteen, will
figure in the evidence. and the recent ne
tition of more than 30 per cent.
of the enlisted men at the barracks
for its abolition will probably be
advanced. Mrs. Cults has the can
teen privilege, which is worth from So, 900
to $1,000 per year. and the enlisted men
say they desire that the profits should be
used to better their own condition.
