TO THE SENIORS.
Eleven silent Seniors wonder.
Sedatcly and reiiectfully ponder,
Ger that signless future yonder.
Refcctfully ponder o'ct that date,
Whcu each shall pass through school-lfe's IS

sorrowfully forestall that short duration
When each shall quit these halls OF edu-
cation.
Eleven Seniors anticipate that time
When they shall leave High Schools

Each anticipate that date
When he can be called a graduate:
Or when traversing life's weary walk,
And discouraged by II. voices mock,
Can justly state with sad sincerity,
Those we're days OF JOY and hilarity.

board Of Ira de EnjOined.

cago Judge Bishop ISSUED AN order TEN
porarily restraining the board OF trade
from cutting oil its market quotation,
service or from entering into any com
blnation or contract with the telegraph
companies which will restrict the genera
public from getting the quotations. The
injunction is broad enough, it is asserted
to prevent the board from interfering iu
any way with the Western Union Tele
graph company in gathering and distribut
ing the market reports to the present sub
scribers Of the telegraph conpany's mar
ket service.
In its complaint the Central Stock and
Grain exchange says that should the mar

Eng land Distruslful Of China.

London, July 29.-Last week of rumors
edicts and Chinese protestations by the
score ends with England as firmly con-
WINGED as ever that the ministers at Pc
Kin have been massacred. Not only that
but in the determined attempts on the
part of the Chinese authorities to convince
the world Of the truth OF their assertions,
prominent organs OF public opinion are
unanimous in seeing desperate plot ON
the part of the Chinese government to de-
lay the day of retribution in the hope that
the powers will become embroiled among
themselves The Chinese declarations have,
in fact, aggravated, rather than ameliorat.
Ell the feeling against the eastern empire.
Archibald Ross Colquhoun, the distin.
guised geogrspher and correspondent Of
the Times during the Franco-C Chinese war
of lSS3-s4, in an able review Of the situa,
ton technically declares: "What We want
is not knowledge, however profound, from
the Chinese rather would we strengthen
the hands Of Admiral Seymour or some
other commander, throw ourselves brayely
into the breach and, il necessary, take
some risks. No big thing has ever been
done without certain amount Of risk"

New York, July O.-Sherdan +. Reed
eA consul at lientsin, says
"N hen The allied relief forces reach Pe

1t is not unlikely that the empress, and
possibly the emperor, have fled with theiI
court under the escort OF Manchu banner
men from Pekin to Sinan Flu, taking with
them the ministers ut least as hostages and
leaving the other foreigners in Pekin to
horrible fate. II the ministers are be.
ing held as hostages and are being re-
moved to the remote inland city Of Sinan
Flu, place more difficult to reach, it i.
necessary that the Chinese should put
forth all their tinesse and cunning TO con
ceal this move until they are safe across
the mountains.
o.nan Fu was a capital of China in
ancient times. 1t is situated on the So
called 'Marcopolo' road. The only way
i. could be reached would be by way OF
the Yang Use from Hankow up the Han
river and Tan river valleys This would
be most herculean task. Sinan Flu is
Larger and cleaner than Pekin. Like all
Chinese cities it is massiyely walled"

EMs pe rOr WiIliam's Address,

Berlin, July 3.-Emperor Williams ad-
dress to the soldiers comprising the China
expedition forms the subject OF general
discussion. The emperor's instructions to
spare no Chinese and make no prisoners
are condemned by nearly everybody one
meets and also by the press.
Ihe Lokal .,nzelger pretends that the
emperor did not mean what his words inn
p!,ed, but that he merely wished to eau
t,on the members oi the expedition that
they would meet foe who does not spare
ana makes no prisoners. Dut nearly all
the other papers, commenting ON the
emperor's speech, strongly argue against
it, ...e Iageblatt in specially caustle
manner, reminding the emperor that telling
his soldiers TO carry civilization INTO China
and in the same breath enjoining them
tally. Besides. the paper argues. the EN-
peror has no right to 50 instruct the eNpedi
ton, because the expedition will i"rnl
mand OF chief OF some otner nationality J
hose instruction solely they must obey
The paper maintains that the em
perors behavior is nSely TO split up the
harmony OF the powers, as doubtless some
Of the powers will not agree to the EN-
perors Instructions"
several papers draw parallel between
this latest speech by Emperor William
and one he delivered in 1898, dedicating ts
the Redeemer the church at Jerusalem, OF
which occasion the kaiser preached thu
gospel OF Christian long suffering TOWARD
all nations.

seems to have spent itself and the city is
quiet again. No fresh outbreaks are re-

ing piece of mob violence. Mayor Capde-

that which has shocked the community y
for the last few days can only be sup
pressed by force. He said today that he
had no intention OF disbanding the special
police or discharging the militia until the
last yestige of mob violence had disap-
peared. Among the communications re-
ceived by the mayor today was an offer
from the leading citizens OF Tangiphoa
for sufficient number Of able bodied men
to annihilate the negroes Of New Orleans. .
