London. June "a. The silence OF
Picking continues unbroken. Four
thousGnd men of the allied forces were
having sharp defensive fighting at
Tien-tsin Tuesday and Wednesday,

MINISTER WI HAS NEWS.
Says Peace and Order Prevail In
Central China.

Washington, June "a. - Reassuring
advices regarding the condition of af-
fairs in Central China have come to
Minister WI, of the Chinese legation
here. The viceroy of the provinces OF
ManaH and Hupe has sent q cablegram
saying that peace and order prevails
in that section Of the country. At the
same time some apprehension is felt
that any ATTEMPT by foreign warships
to ascend the Yang-tse-klang river for
the protection Of foreigners In those
provinces may excite the natives and
arouse their suspicious. Such an init
nation was conveyed in the viceroy's
dispatch. Minister WI conveyed the
contents of the cablegram TO Secre-
tary Hav when he called Mt the state
department yesterday. The minister
is still without any advice touching af-
fairs in Northern China, and expresses
a disinclination to discuss what may
be the condition Of affairs in Picking.

In Kentucky.

Man born in the mountains of
Kentucky is of few days and full
of virus. He fisheth, fiddleth,
cusseth and fighteth all the days
of his miserable life.
He shunneth water as a mad
dog and drinketh much mean
whiskey.
When he desireth to raise h
he planteth a neighbor, and 10! he
reapeth twenty fold. He riseth
even from the cradle to seek the
scalp of his grandsire's enemy,
and bringeth home in his car
cass the ammunition of his wife S
neighbours wife's cousin S father
in-law, who avengeth the deed.
Yea, verify his life is uncertain,
and he knows not the hour when
he may be jerked hence.
He goeth forth on journey
half shot and cometh back on a
shutter-shot.
He riseth in the night to let out
the cat; and it taketh nine doctors
three days to pick the buckshot
out of him.
He goeth forth in JOY and glad
ness and cometh back in scraps
and fragments.
A cyclone bloweth him into the
bosom of his neigh boris wife, and
his neighbours wife's husband
bloweth him into Abraham s bo-
som before he hath time to ex-
plain.
He emptieth a demijohn into
himself and a shotgun into his en-
emy, and his enemy's son lieth in
await for him on election day,
and 10! the coroner plougheth up
a forty-acre field to bury the re-
mains of that man.
Woe, woe, is Kentucky, for her
eyes are red with bad whiskey,
and her soul is stained with bad
whiskey and with the blood of in
nocent moonshiners. M rtin

Jones on Dewey.

The Rev. Sam Jones has been
devoting some thought to the Tx
orious admiral, and he expresses
some of his rnminations in the
Atlanta Journal:
admiral Dewey was hero.
What is he now? Admiral Dewey
never said or did an unwise thing
so far as the public knows before
his recent marriage; if he has
done or said a wise thing since
said marriage the public has been
left in profound ignorance. Fun
ny John Allen of Mississippi said
this country could not afford to
make Dewey President. He was
asked why, and replied: Because
he would give it to his wife the
next day. Markus, or McKin-
1ey-Hanna, said another good
thing on Dewey's candidacy when
he said the battle for the presi-
dency would be fought on land
and not on the water.
"a man can afford to be a young
fool, but no man can keep the re-
spect of the community after he
gets to be an old fool.
Henry Grady died at the very
acme of his career; Lincoln was
assassinated when he was stand
ing on the pinnacle of his glorious
career; Garfield died at the hand
of an assassin also surrounded
by millions of sympathizing
friends; Grant outlived his fame;
Blaine did; Cleveland has. Oh
the fick1eness of fussiness. When
ever the public gets through wor-
Shipping its idol then they holler,
cruelty him. Dewey was
great admiral; Dewey is a very
common citizen, and in politics.
