The captain stood on the bridge, a
figure of stony despair. The land
could never be reached with water
pouring like torrent into the for
ward hold. He cursed his negligence
in overlooking such frightful
blunder. 1t was going to cost 200
lives, and he must not be among the
saved. The Pride of Asia was get
ting low in the water, but he could
not understand why she was not sink
ing more by the bow. She was vibrat-
ing from the engines, pushed to their
highest pressure, for the fremen
stuck gallantly to their posts. Five
minutes went, and ten, and then
with a sudden shock, she took ground
and all were safe.
Next morning, young Malcolm was
missing, and the sorrowful news was
sent to his father. 1t was thought
he had fallen overheard when the
ship grounded, and he could not
swim.
A week afterward, the divers en-.
tered the forward hold, and found, to
their astonishment, that the bulk
head door, which they had expected
to find open, was closed.
They forced it open, and against II
was floating the body of boy.

ATougll Dose.

1t must be a tough dose THAT
would cause the Paris Post to make
a face in swallowing anything label
ed republican, but the county
ticket is evidently too much nfof'
It's cast-iron political system. Here
is what it says Of that party's county
ticket:
We cannot say we are satisfied with
the ticket nominated at the republican
county convention on Saturday last,
believing and knowing as we do that
there were others in the county who
would have given the ticket more
strength and confidence had they been
nominated The mistake the conYen-
ton made was in attempting to distrib-
ute the Offices through the county ire
spective of fitness and strength, and to
keep uhea away from Montpelier and
Paris as much as possible. Like the
Deseret News, we are of the opinion
that geography is permitted to figure
too largely in these matters. The fit
test persons to fill the Offices should be
chosen. irrespective of the place where
they reside, for prospect of success
ought to be viewed as Of far greater
worth than listening to claims for
recognition" from small precincts.

GERMAN PROPOSITION
CAUSES 4 SURPRISE

Washington, Sept 19.-The general
impression here is that the German
note of yesterday, demanding the pun
ishment of Chinese responsible for the
outrages upon the foreigners as q con-
dition for consent to peace negotiations
has brought the Chinese trouble to a.,
acute crisis as far as the United States
Government is concerned.
This conclusion is based upon the
beliet in official circles that the Chi
nese Government cannot accept the
German position, so that it is now for
| the United States Government to with
draw its forces from China immedi-
ately or to join Germany and England
and perhaps some other of the allied
powers in a prolonged war with China
Baron Won Sternberg, the German
charge d'affaires, just returned 10
Washington, called early at the State
Department today to talk with Mr..
| Adee, the second assistant secretary of
state, in explanation of the points of
the German note.
Mr.. Wa. the Chinese minister had
preceded him, showing visible signs Of
nervousness and disquiet over this last
move Mr.. Adee made an appointment
with him for Dr.. Hill who having re-
turned to Washington, is Acting Secre-
tary OF State. Mr.. Adee preceded to the
White House to communicate to the
President the substance Of the CONVEX
SatiOnS he had had with tho turn 5iplc>
matists, and to assist in the considera-
ton Of the German note. He refused
to discuss the latter publicly in any
phase.
Attention was directed in some quar-
tiers to the fact that in the very begin |
ming, in the note of July 8, Secretary
Hay had notified the Chinese Govern
ment that he expected the guilty par
ties In connection with the outrases
would be punished. However, this de-
mand was not made a condition pre-
cedent to negotiations. Now the be-
lief Is growing that il the United States |
Government is forced to a speedy deci-
sion as to the German proposition it /
may resort to direct negotiations with
the Chinese Government. and having
settled its scores with that government.
withdraw from China, giving notice to
the allied powers there Of the arrange
ment in order that arrangements may
remain in full force unaffected by any
settlement that the allies may make
thereafter as to China.
