BRITISH BLUEJACKETS
Menace Russian Consulate at tlankow.
Cossakes Failed TO Fight.

Shanghai, Aug. 28.-As the out
come of a dispute regarding the
ownership of some lands at Han
kow, on the Yang Use Kiang, about
700 miles from the sea, which were
purchased in 1863 by the concern
of Jardine, Matheson & Co., but
were subsequently included in the
new concessions to Russia, the
owners, under the advice and pro-
lection of Mr.. Hurst, the British
consul, sent workmen to fence in
the tract.
After the work was done dozen
Cossaks from the Russian consul
late appeared on the scene and
forcibly elected the workmen.
The captain of the British sec
ond-clasS gunboat Woodlark, spe-
cially designed for river service,
after consulting with Mr.. Hurst,
landed a party of bluejackets and
moved the Woodlark within firing
distance of the Russian consulate.
For a time a fight seemed immi-
nent but nothing further occurred.
The bluejackets are now guarding
the property. The British third
class gunboat Esk has been dis
patched to Hankow from this port.
Great Britain is evidently deter
mined to uphold British rights.

It IS just as easy to drift into danger as to drive into it. The progress Is slower but the end IS equally sure It is the gradual progress of drifting which blinds to the danger. Men and women drift into ill-health i'll such a way. There is little feeling of oppression after eating. After time 1t passes away. Some day 1t returns and brings another symptom headache, perhaps. Something Is done to relieve the headache but nothing to relieve the cause. So one more victim goes drifting on to the rocks of disease.
 Young women who are teaching or studying are very apt to become victims of disease of the stomach. They eat in- Judlc1ously, in some cases and in gen eral the brain is too occupied to allow the stomach the blood necessary to carry on its functions. Hence i'll time the organs of digestion and nutrition are totally deranged, and the young gradu- ate goes home a chronic invalid
 The timely use of Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery will avert such a con- dition the faithful use of 1t in chronic cases will effect a complete cure.

Why Jim Quit Riding.

He had in his time been as hard a road rider as the state and county boasted of, but the time came when be betook himself to matrimony, and henceforth the road and he were stran- gers. Asked why this was. his wife in confidence told visitor, and she in turn told friend, and so on down the line until it reached the club in this shape: "Yes, Jim doesn't ride a bicycle any more, because, you see, bicycling units man for the work of wheeling a baby carriage. The handle-bars on the carriage do not suit him. They are so high that he cannot crook his back enough, and he misses the bell to warn other baby carriages from the sidewalk" And poor Jim hasn't been to the club since the story got there. Just think what a nice time he's going to have when they spring it on him -The Wheel.

Little Korea.

An evidence of Uncle Sam's ability to meet the worlds every need is the fact that he supplies several govern ments with postal stamps. It has re- gently become known that the Korean stamps are printed in this country. The United States consular reports de- scribe them as of four denominations and all alike except in color and value In the center is the national emblem, an ancient Chinese phallic device; at the corners of the centerpiece are four characters, signifying the spirits that, Atlas like, uphold the earth, while in each corner of the stamp is a plum blossom, the royal flower of the pres ent Ye dynasty, which has held the throne more than 800 years. Each stamp bears inscriptions in three lam guages-Chinese, Korean and English. At the top are ancient Chinese char acters and at the bottom their Korean equivalents. On the right are Korean characters and on the left Chinese, giving the denominations, while just below the center is their English translation.

LETTER FROM PARIS.
Paris Oct. 18th. 1899

Paris, Oct. 18th, 1899
NV last letter to you, from Geneva,
Switzerland, outlined our journey from
Berne to Geneva by way of Montiguy and
Chamonix. It was hurriedly written just
before our departure from Switzerland,
and some things were omitted that might
we'll have been included In closing let
ter. Our run from Geneva to Paris of
458 miles was uneventful, and yet each
day of the two weeks spent on the way
was full of incidents and experiences inter-
esting to US at the time, an account of
which l may give In my next letter. In
this must write in general way of our
journey from Rotterdam, Holland, to
Geneva in Switzerland.
My first letter sketched our ten-days'
run of 800 miles In the Netherlands, that
unique land below the level of the sea, "a
land of canals and bitches and fogs,-
spread out along the stormy North sea,
into which the Rhine. rushing, foaming
torrent in the Alpine heights. oozes
through Dutch fens and farms, bearing In
it's folds the detritus of the mountains
and the filth of half a continent.
The next two letters recounted our ad-
ventures in part In the valley of the
ssscoried Rhine." from Cologne to Basel,
500 miles, in two weeks, including the
Sundays rest at Worms.
The last four letters have sketched our
wanderings In Switzerland, favored land
Of beauty and grandeur, ending at Geneva
and filling up the days between Sept. 18th
and Oct. 4th, the distance run being 45C
miles.
hope you have read these letters with
induleent criticism. taking them for what
they are-hasty, sketchy records Of travel
written under adverse conditions, and
sent you that you might share with us
the novel scenes and experiences through
which we have been privileged to pass.

Perry's Big Guns.

Commodore Perry had not yet elec-
trified grateful nation with his i'm
mortal message, "We have met the en-
emy, and they are ours" While the
battle was in progress the sound of
the guns was heard at Cleveland,
about 80 miles away in a direct line
over the water. The few settlers there
were expecting the battle and listened
with intense interest. Finally the
sounds ceased. They waited for a re.
newal. None came; the lull was pain
full. Then they knew the battle was
over; but the result, ahi that was the
point. One old fellow, who had been
lying fat with his ear to the ground,
soon settled that point. Springing up
he clapped his hands and shouted:
THANK God! They are whipped!
They are whipped!'

inquired.
