History of the Late war as Told bv the
Mandsrins to the People.
History is specially written for the
Chinese people by the Chinese authori-
ties. The following, which is the latest
gem, relates to the affair consequent
upon the cession of Formosa to Japa3
says the London Times. 1t comes on
the authority of the Fen-chaufu (Shan-
sp correspondent Of the North China
Daily Mes, who says that the docu-
ment is being industriously circulated
. In the cities Of the province at 10 cents
set, illustrated: THE armies of China
and Japan fought until the third month
tof the present year,. After peace had
been declared China handed Formosa
over to Japan. Unexpectedly the For
mosans did not want to be handed over.
The Japanese went there and their SOL
diers attacked them from the fourth
month till the last Of the first month.
Formosa's commander-in Liu,
fought more than thirty battles In
word, the Japanese did not win single
battle, but first and last by strategy
Gen. Liu killed 10000 Japanese soldiers
and destroyed some thirty-odd battle
ships and captured some twenty-odd.
Afterward Japan sought help from
western nations English, French,
American and Russian. Each country
responded favorably the 9th day of the
second fifth month. Each country and
Japan had thirty iron battleships and
thirty or forty wooden ones. They
were all filled with braves-S0, 900 or
10000 and more. They went to Taipeh-
fu and Anpingkou and fought battle.
Gen. Liu by the use of strategy be-
gan to contest sixty Ii outside of An
pingkou in the sea on the 9Th of the
month in the evening. Suddenly fire
started upon the surface of the water.
The foreigners made up their minds
that they wanted to set sail and depart.
But Gen. Liu's marine under the water
bound fast ali the ships with iron
chains, so that they could not stir. On
the It'll of the month the fire ceased,
for the foreign ships and soldiers were
ali burned up. This battle was
like the ancient red wall Of fire. bat
tie. Immediately every foreign nation
feared Gen. Liu as one does tiger.
On the Sth and 9th Of the month Gen.
Liu's braves took ten iron battleships,
$4,000 or 10000 aborigines, 10.000-odd
Black Flags, and attacked Japan. They
Immediately captured Changchikou.
Taipefu. Makuantao, and many other
places. They also captured Japanese
armies without number. The Japanese
people of all kinds were killed and
wounded in immense numbers. From
such chastisement Japan cannot be

The next step is to make the pupil

SO that the inside ball of the foot

Then these pretty maids and matrons
all "toeing the mark" sway their
bodies back and forth without moving
the feet or losing balance.

one might imagine, the human body
