The Waterbury Furni- ture Go and the Elm. peror of Japan.

The wonderful progress which East Main street is making since the Great Furniture Emporium took up it's abode there one short year ago, is attracting the attention of all progressive people. But the fact is not generally known that the Waterbury Furniture Company is closely connected with people who are in con- stant communication with the Emperor of Japan. And how many people know that this ruler is by far the most progressive in all the world. He is Emporer of a dynasty which dates back in an unbroken line for 2,555 years-centuries before the birth of Christianity. And only few months ago, when he made up his mind to settle his old account with China, he asked his people for 8 loan of $25, ,000. 900 to carry on the war, the business men of Japan subscribed three times the amount on the spot, and refused to take any interest on their loan. No wonder that 40. GOO, 900 such people could knock out four hundred million Chinamen. Prof Edward s. Morse says in his great work on Good Man ners," that the Japanese are by far the best bred people in all the world. Now that the Waterbury Furniture Company has @ church in it's building as we'll as a school it expects that the scholars who have been privileged to come here, will take on some of this spirit which has brought Japan and the Waterbury Furni- ture company to the front rank. We are glad to be able to tell our boys that it is scientific truth backed by the best living authorities, that all the forces of nature are with the fellow who wants to climb not downwards, but upwards. Let this encourage you A smile of contentment came over our faces last Monday morning when we saw the people catch on to those huge Rockers for 99 cents. There is nothing like keeping the people happy. Next Monday morning we will do the same thing at o'clock. and remember our motto: i've never fool the public" Our sales this July will be the largest in our history; thanks to the people who have stopped going to New York and Boston to buy their goods. Moral-Be like the Elm peror of Japan-live in the hearts of your own people, and they will keep your mem- ory green.

State Department Notified.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 5.-The state de partment received later intelligence of thu killing of the missionaries in Kuchen China. The dispatch was from Censu. General .Jornigan and shows that nc Americans suffered, but that the massa ere of British subjects was greater thar at first reported. The consul general dispatch is in the following words:
 Americans all safe. None hurt. Ten British killed.''
 Although MT. Jornigan does not use the word missionaries in his dispatch. yet there is no doubt felt by the officials of the state department that he refers tc them, and that his dispatch is intended aa supplementary to that sent on Saturday.
 Much qualification is expressed that the Americans have not suffered, as the dis patch appears to leave no doubt on that point. The cablegram was at once for, warded to Secretary Olney at his summer home in Massachusetts for his informa tion.
 No Cruiser Ordered to the Scene Yet.
 Up to this time, so far as ascertained, no steps have been taken by the navy de- partment toward sending any naval force to the district where the reported masSa. ere has occurred. When word of the trou. ble came, the customary instructions were sent to Minister Denby at Peking to see that American interests were protected.
 In response. received Saturday night the minister said that small boats could reach the place with force of marines. Admiral Carpenter is in command of the China station, and he has authority tc use the vessels and men under his com. mand to assist in affording any protec. tion that may be regarded as necessary. The lack of ships of light draft that can penetrate the shallow waters of the Chi nese rivers is serious embarrassment tC the authorities.
 In this connection it is said that the gunboats now building at Norfolk would be of great value to the authorities in Chi. nese waters in such cases as the present, and it is probable that when completed some of them will be assigned to duty on

MCGOWAN RETURNS.
TrentOn'A Ex-Mayor Indignant at the Haste
 of His Creditors.


 TRENTON, Aug. 5.-Ex- Mayor Frank A. Mcgowan, whose unexplained absence from the city brought on crisis in his business affairs, resulting in applications for receiverships for several concerns in which he has large interests, returned last night He has been away for ten days, which time, he alleges, was spent in Chi cago and St. Louis and devoted to tho transaction of important business of pri- vate nature.
 He is very indignant at the course pur- sued by his creditors in having receivers appointed for the Eastern and Trenton Rubber companies, of which he is president and general manager, and asserts that he has ample assets in the shape of good col lateral upon which he will at once raise all the funds necessary to discharge the indebtedness of the concerns involved and take them out of the hands of the receiver.
 He claims that $50, 900 is all that will be required to accomplish this. He asserts that the executions upon his residence were founded upon disputed accounts.
 He admits having gone to Chicago on the same train taken by Mrs. Barnes, the wife of the former superintendent of one of the concerns of which Mcgowan is the head and whom Mcgowan discharged and afterward had arrested for attempting to shoot him. He says, however, that Mrs. Barnes travelled with her mother, sister and brother, and that all of them are now in Chicago with relatives, and that he has not seen Mrs. Barnes since last Monday.

The Californian Is King of tho Racket
 Throughout the West.

Carr B. Necl, the new singles tennis champion of the west, won the title TO. gently by defeating Sam T. Chase, who has held the championship for four years and whose brother, c. A. Chase, was champion four years before Sam secured the laurels. The Chase family had held the honor so long that some surprise was felt when Neel won with comparative ease in straight sets. Neel is also northwestern singles champion, and with his brother,
 Samuel R. Neel holds the western tennis champions in doubles. They won this title recently on the grounds of the Kenwood Country club, Chicago, when they defeated l.. E. Ware and W. NJ. Scudder. They will play the winners of the eastern champion

ship at the Narragansett Pier tournament, which begins Aug. 12, and the winners of that contest will play the present. national double champions, Hobart and Hovey, at the Newport tournament for the cham pionship of the United States.
 Neel began playing tennis about four years ago as a member of the Oakland (Cal.) Tennis club. He soon became a student at the University of Chicago and first attracted particular attention at the World s fair tennis tournament, when he came very near to defeating Fred H. Ho- vey, the famous eastern expert. Last year Neel won the singles championship of the Western Intercollegiate association, and he is playing in such excellent form this year that his friends are confident he will make a great showing against the best men in America at the great national tournament in Newport, when Robert D. Wrenn of Chi cago will be called on to defend his title as champion of America.
