The regiment made for itself q page in

above. Starting on Feb. 5th. they
were fighting at every opportunity un.
til April 25th. Its list of victories in

"a and IS, the casulty list was nearly
fifty During the campaign the regi
ment lost 26 killed Ninety seven
were wounded.
With such glorious record, it was
not strange that the people swarmed to
Worthing on Monday, Oct. 16, 1899, to
welcome home the brave boys Of Com
pany D. It had seemed that luck and
the elements were against US but the
affair came off on schedule time. The
train bearing a number of the soldier
boys reached Worth!ng about five
o'clock Sunday morning, having been
delayed. Sunday terrific rain and
wind storm blew down the two large
tents erected for the occasion, thus
running the fine decorations placed by
the committee on Saturday. The
larger tent could not be again erected.
The smaller one was put up again Mon
day morning. A change was neces-
sarv all round, and the men and women
of Worthing worked like beavers to get
things in readiness. Some felt dis
couraged but rallied determined to
give those who came through the mud
the best there was. The town took on
a holiday appearance, and by the time
Capt. G. P. VanHouten and other men,
bers had arrived there was a jostling,
surging, happy crowd of several thous-
and people ready to honor the occasion.
Meanwhile the ladies had spread the
tables with most delicious edibles and
announced their readiness to serve the
same. Two tables were reserved for
the soldier boys and parents, other
tables for speakers, editors, musicians
and others. The first two tables were
elaborately decorated. Among some
of the decoration were two beautiful

A Legend Of the Peach.

The Japanese, who claim to have
first discovered or utilized the peach,
have a quaint legend as to the fruit.
A pious old couple, stricken with years
and poverty, subsisted by begging. One
day on the highway the old woman
found the beautiful ripe fruit. Al
though almost famished, she did not
selfshly eat the luscious peach alone,
but took it home to divide with her
husband. AS the knife cut into it the
fruit opened and an infant sprang
forth, who told the astonished beggars
that he was the god Shin To, and had ac-
cidentally fallen from the orchard of
the Japanese heaven while at play with
some other gods and goddesses. For
extricating him from the peach Shin To
gave the Japs its seed to plant and told
them it's product would make them
wealthy This is the origin of the peach,
according to the Japs, and my Chicago
friend, Blupperson, who told me this
story.-P. Green, in Denver Field and
Farm. :,

A PerilOus Adventure.

Grand Portage, Mimi, May 1.-TWO
Scandinavians who started from Two
Harbors Sunday morning and passed by
here Sunday at O'Clock P. NJ. en route
for Isle Royale, ran into an ice field ten
miles from their destination. They were
obliged to return. A terrific storm set
in and the brave mariners of Viking an
cestry were at the mercy OF the waves.
One drifted into the northeast corner
OF Grand Portage bay, where his boat
went aground on the bar and filled with
water. The hero (it We can call him
such) stood up in his boat nearly ex-
hausted, in water up to his waist. He
was rescued by Louis Plant, who hoard
his cries, assisted by Nels Memaskawash.
The second adventnrer came into the
northwestern part Of the bay, cast anchor,
covered himself with the sails, laid down
on his blankets and resigned himself
into the arms of Morphen. He was
found next morning about A. M. by the
q. s. chief OF police, who assisted him to
his home where he Aot the care and at
tsntion necessary.
This puts US in mind of little poetry
we learned long time ago:
"Big boats can venture more,
But little ones should keep near shore"
The two men in the third boat which
left Two Hartors at the same time
has not been heard from yet. We
trust they braved the storm and are all
right.

RAILROADS IN CHINA.
A 11lss1onary'ss Account Of the DIM
~ cu1ties Under which They
y 49, psaq Are Conducted. zs-T5f..s .ss

A missionary writing from China to
. friend in this city recently described
the difficulties under which the newly
completed railroads are conducted in
that country, says the New York Sun.
Passengers in the first-class coaches,
he said, exhibited so strong desire
to carry off various articles from the
cars as souvenirs Of their trip that the
coaches we're speedily stripped of those
things that contribute to the comfort
of the passenger. They took away with
them hat and bundle racks mirrors,
lamp brackets, hooks, small tables, and
even doors. They were, considerate
enough to leave the car frame and
wheels. And the purloiners were gov
eminent officials and people belonging
to the wealthy classes. 81. .
The stations along the railroad over
which the writer Travelled were rude
sheds, very unclean and without a
chair or bench. The cars, too, were
very dirty. While this was especially
true of the second-class coaches, which
were oftentimes crowded with half
naked, unwashed people, the first-class
coaches also became very unclean in
short time. 1t soon became necessary
10 take out all the upholstery and re-
place it by plain seats.
When the railroads were being built
reports were spread that the foreign
contractors were stealing Chinese chill
dren and burying them in the roadbed
so as to propitiate the god who rules
over railroads. These reports greatly
excited the people, and in one instance
a mob attacked two missionaries near
Picking and would have killed them had
not detachment of soldiers rescued
them. Under guise of these reports
children were really kidnapped and taken
into the cities for immoral purposes.
