bition was to land his patrons at their
destination with happy hearts and good
wishes There was no attempt to in
struct or to preach a sermon. Poetry
sentiment. emotion and tragedy did not
figure in the construction of the piece.
In fact it may be remarked in all can
dor, that the author of "Shanty Town

better than physic, ''Shanty Town"
may not strictly speaking, be a Joy

lasts A car load of special scenery is
carried by the company for this produc-
tion, which will be seen at the Park
Theatre one night only, Friday Feb. 8.

PITH OF CHINESE WAR NEWS
IhursdaY.

The news from China is confined
largely to rumors from untrustworthy
sources One is that the allies at Tien
Tsin were defeated and foreign force
cut to pieces east of Pekin. European
officers are said to be directing the oper-
atiOns of the Chinese.
There is still no authentic news from
Pekin. A Shanghai correspondent re-
peats the massacre story, which he has
from Chinese official sources.
Admiral Seymour reports the situa-
tion at Tien Tsin up to Saturday, when
he was bringing up more guns from
Taku. At that time there were 10000
foreign troops on hand, but more we're
required.
The United States government is de-
termined to communicate with Mr.. Con-
ger, and has notified Minister WI to
that effect. There will be no pause until
the fate of the foreigners in Pekin is
known, ample protection given Ameri-
cans in China and the guilty officials
brought to justice.
The German foreign minister an
nounces that his government is seeking
only the protection of foreigners in
China, not the partition of the Empire
A Yokohama dispatch says Japan will
send $4,000 troops to China. A Che
Foo story is that Prince Tuan has be-
come insane. Shanghai repeats the
rumor that Russian force of 10000 is
coming down on Pekin from the north
Ii Hung Chang will remain at Canton
Friday.
All the foreigners at Wau Chow, in the
province OF Cheh Kiang, have been
landed safely at Shanghai. This is the
extent of the foreign news received off.
cially in London. There is no word
from the legations at Pekin, and the
outside world is in the dark as to the
situation at Tien Tsin.
Consul General Goodnow says the
governors OF Honan and Shansi have
issued proclamations favorable to the
! Boxers. Admiral Remey, in his report
makes no mention OF the alleged mas.
sacre at Pekin.

TEACHERS SUMNER SCHOOL.

Pullman, July 49, Editor Gazette:
The Summer Science school is without
doubt one OF the grandest opportunities
Tor teachers ever placed in their reach.
Although the enrolment has now
reached about IT'S, it seems that great
many more might very profitably spend
their vacations here and receive not
only q chance to pursue the various
branches as seems to them most bene.
hclal, but come and meet the MANY
minds that always form such a student
body, for the school is made up of q
class OF teachers who are bent on pro-
gression and development. They receive
mere that dessert of the year" which
tends to cause the teacher to feel that
after all we are the moulders and form
ers OF thought and development. The
assOciating, one with the other: the ex-
changing of ideas; the access to large
library; the use of the weIl-equipped lab
ratories, etc, surely are inducements
that will set US to thinking new thoughts
and forming new ideas that will be of
material aid in the school room.
We find here a faculty always willing,
KIND, sympathetic; and | will dare say
that more than one has resolved on new
methods OF teachlng-teachers who have
worked, won reputation and experience
by carefully pursuing the different lines
OF work and won distinction from the
state by being placed in our states in
stitutions Of higher learning
The social side alone is we'll worth the
time OF any man or woman who is
housed in the school room the rest of
the year. Once a week the charm of
music, the jolly, merry making body as
semble and are lost in the pleasant sur
roundings of conversation and games.
The mid-term social given by the
Good Fellows of Ferry Hall" Saturday
evening was one Of the most pleasant
entertainments your correspondent ever
attended. The large diningroom of
Ferry hall was elaborately decorated
from corner to post and the way the
lads and lasses poured in from unknown
places OF abode was marvellous. We
were there for mirth and gaiety, and
such we had, for from the opening piano
duet by Mrs. Eyenden and Miss Carter,
the party made things hum. The cake
walk was noEdoubt the most pleasing
feature OF the evening, and all the par
ticipants surely did themselves proud (?)
(But fun is fun.) and it was very hard
for the judges, which consisted Of men,
bers OF the faculty, to decide, so well (?)
vas it accomplished. But after few
moments the decision Of the judges was
that Miss Davies and Mr.. Kingsbury
walked the "most worstest" aud they
gently walked out to the tune Of II Love
70 My Honey" and then the wink"
said, "To your rooms;" and soon the
noisy, jolly, joking set began to dis
perse. The hum of the hall died slowly
away until nothing but the low soft
murmur at the gate post remained, and
then the evening ended.
