Evident That Chinese VIII Continue to
Struggle Against Allies.
London, Aug. 81, 4 a. m.-Rear Ad-
miral Bruce's report of the continual
ton of fighting in Pekin puts a more
serious aspect on the Chinese situation
than was generally expected here.
1t appears effectually to dispose of
all statements that the empress dow
ager had fed, although circumstantial
accounts of her departure continue to
come from Shanghai.
Despite defeat, the Chinese are appa-
rently resolved to make a desperate
struggle not only in their ancient capt.
tai, but also in other parts of the en-
pire. Shang Chi Hung, viceroy at Han
kow, and Liu Kun vi, viceroy at Nan
kin, according to advices from Shang-
hal, have threatened the consuls that
if the person Of the empress dowager
is not respected they will withdraw
from their present friendly attitude.
Gen. Grodekov, Russian commander
of the Amur government, reports to
the Russian war Office that Chingan
pass was captured Aug. 16 after a
bloody battle, in which the Chinese
suffered heavily, losing four or five
guns. The Russian cavalry were in
pursuit of the enemy.

To BE Proposed to Adjust Difficulties
with China.
Washington, ID. c., Aug. 21.-As q
solution of the Chinese problem this
government will propose an interna-
tional congress to go to China clothed
with power to adjust the present diff
ficulties and make China a safe place
for foreigners in the future. President
Mckinley has had this scheme under
consideration for some time, and the
result will undoubtedly be commits
sion OF the character indicated, TO
consist of one or more representatives
of each nation interested in the Chi
nese muddle. The proposition has not
yet been made to the powers, but il
will be in short time. The question
with which this commission will have
to deal will be the restoration of orde
throughout the empire; the fixing of
indemnity for the loss of life and
property of foreigners in China; the
punishment of those responsible for
the present disorders; a solution OF
the difficulties which will bring about
permanent safety and peace to China;
to preserve Chinese territorial and ad-
ministrative entity; to protect all
rights guaranteed to friendly powers
by treaty and international law, and
to safeguard to the world the princi-
pie of equal and impartial trade with
all parts OF the Chinese empire.

THE ONE MEDICINE

In the world which women may
rely upon positively. Pe-ru-na is
good for everyone, but particularly
for women. The various weak,
nesses which afflict their delicate or
ganisin spring from inflammation or
catarrh of the mucous lining and Pe-ru-na
is a specific for catarrh in any organ of
the body. Any congestion of a mucous
membrane simply means catarrh of the
organ affected. This is why Pe-ru-na
cures all sorts of troubles where other
remedies fail. If there is a catarrhal
affection the matter with you anywhere

Delagoa Bay, Aug. 20.-General De
Wet has defeated the British and cap
tured 1000 men, according to reports
here from Boer sources. General De
Wet, who is the Morgan of the war in
the Transvaal, gave Lord Roberts the
slip, escaping from that generals in
Vulnerable traps and succeeding in eff
fecting a junction with General De-
larey. Then he turned suddenly upon
the British and defeated them, cap
turing seven guns and 1000 prisoners.
This successful manuever on the part
of the Boer general stamps him as the
greatest military leader in South
Africa. Every general in the British
service had De Wet in a trap at one
time or another. Kitchener and Bull
Ter have reduced their commands TO a

over veldt and kopje, and now he has
not only escaped, but turned and gave
them terrible blow.

Hash will cast his first Democratic
vote.

us to get what pleasure we can out of
the few years that remain for us to
live. One of the surest ways to enjoy
life is the possession of good health,
and well regulated stomach. Hos

anyone to obtain this. 1t is the great

arise from bad stomach. 1t cures
