 man who was in the house was awakened by the noise of the negro raising the window, but as he heard nothing else, and saw nothing to arouse his suspicious went to sleep again. He was awakened again in a few minutes, this time by a noise in the room He raised his head and saw a negro man climbing out of the win dow.
 Picking up his revolver, which was near at hand, he fired one shot at the burglar, just as he dropped from the window sill to the ground Running to the window he fired three more shots at the negro as he ran around a corner of the house.
 A thorough search of the house was made, but nothing was missed, except a pair of trousers. The trousers were found just under the window short while after shots took effect, as the mark was found where the bullet grazed the window sill. A tall board fence stands just outside of the window and in direct line of the bull let. As no sign of the bullet was found in the fence, it is believed that the negro's s body received the ball.
 This makes the second time in the last few weeks that this house has been en- tered. The first time the burglar was in the second story, and becoming frightened sprang out of window to the roof of the porch~ slid dcES post and escaped

CHICAGO BOYCOTS CHINESE LAUNDR|ES The CeIestiaIs in the Windy City Are Very Much Per-
 turbed About It.

Chicago July 22.-The Chinese popula- ton of Chicago is perturbed over the re- ports from the various parts of the city that because of caucasian antipathy, due to the trouble in the Celestial empire, boycott has literally been instituted against Chinese laundries and truck farms. Wu Sung Lee, a banker in Chinatown, and probably the richest Mongolian in the city, says four laundries have been forced to suspend business during the past week and Chinese laundries generally report fall ing off of 50 per cent in their business.
 Banker Wu said today: 'The white peo- pie think we are in sympathy with the Boxers and that they have our moral sup port. Nothing could be further from the truth. Every Chinaman in the city re- grets the trouble and hopes that the for eieners have not been murdered. Some of us have even authorized the Chinese Council at San Francisco to offer to the Chinese government our services and our property to the end that the foreigners, and especially the Americans in China, may be saved"

CHAFFEE'S PROMOTION
 MEETS WITH APPROVAL
Owing to His Record at Santiago 1t is Pe- culiarly Appropriate That He
 Should be So Honored.

Washington, July 22. - Especially - The Presidents action in promoting Brigadier General Chaffee to a major generalcy in the volunteer army meets with approval in all circles in Washington. General Chaf- fee is due at Nagasak with the Sixth Cav airy soon, having sailed from San Fran cisco on the 3d, with the expectation Of making the voyage within three weeks. General Chaffee, it will be remembered, was assigned to the command of the troops in China, and that body, with the marines, being certain to aggregate 12,00O men when all troops now under orders reach their destination, it was properly considered that the officer in command of what is really division should have rank com mensurate with his command, particularly as the holding of such rank will give the American general more important posi- tion with the allied forces.
 Our government has had so few troops that there are comparatively few officers of high rank, and it often happens that in foreign armies soldiers of less service and less experience, and probably less ability than some of our regimental officers have attained the rank of Lieutenant General.
 It is peculiarly appropriate that General
  been by the President. His record as San tiago was excelled by no officer there. Col onel Lee the British military attache who was with the American army during the campaign against Santiago, regarded Chaf- fee as the peer of any officer in the army there.
 When the fighting in Cuba ended General Chaffee was continued on duty there be- cause he was regarded as invaluable. This usefulness in Cuba lost him the opportunity to take part in the campaign in the Phil ippines and other officers have gained rank and reputation that would probably have been Chaffee's had he had the same luck. IL was partly the feeling that he should have the opportunity for additional active service as well as appreciation of his splendid qualities as fighter and as an officer of exceptionally good judgment that lead to his being assigned to China.
