MUCH PLUMBER.
French Most Successful Lootcrs Of the
Allies
(By Associated Press.)


PEKIN. Sept. 1.-The formal, and to
those who desired to indulge their pro-.
pensities TO loot. very unsatisfactory
march through the sacred city is over, the
city is once more under close guard, only
occupied by some servants OF the court
and a sort of secretary.
When the subject of entering the sacred
city was first preached, General chaftee
and one or two OF the Generals were
against the plan, but the ministers were
unanimously in favor of it, arguing that
tha Chinese would always declare that
Pel1in proper had never been taken unless
the sacred city was entered by foreign
troops, also that it would be considered
still more holy in the eyes OF the peo-
pie.
General Chaffee bosed his objections on
the ground that the place was practical
II the palace and the private grounds
of the Emperor and royal family and that
no public good could be gained by over
running it.
The French have been the most successful
looters. their prizes being estimated at
MANY millions. Though they have but
handful of men here, the French flag flies
over more buildings than those OF any
other ration The japanese have worked
hard and we'll and il seems the opinion OF
most of the officers that if there is any
division of territory the japanese VIII

Every one here seems to believe that a
division of China IS imminent and an
think America is hardly to be taken into
consideration It is generally conceded that
the most she wants is a ey>1ndemhitS,
and possibly a coaling station. The Brit
ish and American Legation grounds are the
central point of interest, and 1T IS mere
that most of The news of the day IS
gathered and discussed.
The Germans claim that they have the
greatest right TO dictate the terms OF
peace, on account of The murder of Baron
Won Ketteier but the other ministers
claim that they have been beseiged, bonn
barded and in peril Of their lives for weeks,
constitutes just as much Of an affront TO
their respective nations as though they
had been killed.

Stuarfs Dyspepsia Tablets are a dis

iession and the public. They are an I'M

and disordered digestion.
Almost eNerybedy.s digestion is disor-

things they do for it is 20 take
some one of the many so-called blood puri-
nnrs, which in many cases are merely
strong catharucs. Such things are not
needed. If The organs are in a clogced
condition they need only a little help and
they VIII right themselves. Cathartics
irritate the sensitive Innings of the stom-
ach and bowels, and often do more harm
than good.
Pursins is not needed. The thing TO do
is 10 put the food into condition 10 he read

Dyspepsia Tablets do this perfectly. They
partly digest what is eaten and give the
stomach JUS; the help il needs. They slim
u!ate the secretion and eNcretion of The
digestive fluids and relieve the conges;ed
condition of the glands and membranes.
They put the whole digestive system in
condition to do this work. When that is

have produced an effect upon magazine
circulation during their serial publication
SO sllght as to be hardly traceable. It is
a matter Of special interest, therefore,.
when We find a story making itself felt
in magazine circulation almost immed-
lately upon the commencement of its Sc
rial publication. The first instalment of
J. M. Barrie's Tommy and Grizel'' was
published in the January Scribner's. With
in two months a distinct gain in the cir
culatlon OF the magazine was apparent.
and there was a very material increase
in the English edition. A further in
dication of the interest aroused by Mr..
Barrie story was the immediate effect
noticeable in the sales of Mr.. Barrie's
former story, Sentimental Tommy" of
which 100000 copies have already been
sold. 10 meet the increased demand q
new edition, in paper, of so, 900 copies,
has just been published. The increase
OF interest in the Barrie story, Tommy
and Grlzel," is apparent in the desire
OF new subscribers 10 obtain the num-
bers containing the first instalments of
the story, and in order to meet this de-
sire the publishers nave adopted the
rather novel plan of printing the first
three instruments of Tommy and Grizel'
in pamphlet form. and presenting it to
new subscribers, in order that they may
have the serial from the beginning.
