Washington, July 2o.-Mr. Rockhill, who
has just been appointed a special commits
siOner to China, has gone out of town,
but will return to Washington Monday.
The developments of to-day in the Chi
nose situation will not affect his mission;
in fact they have rather increased its i'm
portance, for they are taken to presage
an earlier settlement in China than had
been expected.
Mr.. Rockhill accordingly will sail from
San Francisco on the steamer Maru on
Aug. %, taking this route instead of going
by Vancouver, as he can thereby save
nearly two weeks time.

@Honey and bread was a great meat with Pythagoras and his scholars and counted a sufficient food for a tenn perate life," wrote pr. Thomas Muffett in 1875, flor bread strengthens the body, and honey both nourishes much and also cleanseth away opportunities.
 'Pollo Romulus being asked by Au- gustus, the emperor, how he lived so long! By nourishing Saith he) my in- wards with honey and my outward parts with ayle. The like answer like wise made Democritus, being demand ed the like question. Furthermore, 1t Is so general a meat through Russia that the children eat 1t on their bread every morning as ours do butter to their breakfast; with whom and with old men 1t agreeth exceeding well, cleansing their breasts, opening their pipes, warming their stomachs, resist ing putrefaction and engendering sweet and commendable blood. Raw honey Is never good, therefore clarify 1t thor oughly at the fire; also let 1t be honey that ran and was never puffed out of the combs and of young bees rather than old, feeding upon thine, rose mary, flowers and such sweet and wholesome herbs. Then may you boldly give 1t as meat to young chil- iren, to cold and moist complexions and to rheumatic old men, especially in northern countries and cold climates and in the winter months"

BInckenfng One'n Shoes.

There are men in New York today whose fortunes are not small, yet they never pay bootblack a cent year for shining their shoes. They are their own bootblacks, and not one Is asham- ed of 1t. You may depend on one thing these men were reared in the coun- try, where they were educated In the use of the brush. I said to an acquaint- ance some time ago, when he com plained that his 12-year-old son had no exercise about the house, "Why don't you make him blacken the family shoes every morning."
 He was stunned at the suggestion. My son blacken bootsv' he walled. throwing up his hands. Do you think I would disgrace my own boy? I give him 10 cents every morning to have his shoes shined at the corner where have mine shined."
 I reminded him that he was teaching that boy to be an upstart and that he was giving him S36.50 year which he stole from his friends. Blackening shoes Is splendid exercise. Many a ragged street Arab Is too proud to do 1t because of some fool father like the one mentioned, but such a father robbing his friends. Let every boy learn to shine shoes. He may have to make a living at 1t some day. There Is money in the business.-New York Press.

Any reader who has had backache and found relief by rubbing the back with hniments and lotions, understands that the relief obtained was but makeshift, for the ache returns. There's a way to do it SO the ache will not come back. Read how it's done.
 MT. Fred A. Wood, of Io3. Thurbers avenue, Providence, R. l., messenger for the Earle and Prews Express Co.,, says {: ''In the winter of 1897 became so en- thusiastic an admirer of Doan's Kidney Pills, after they cured me of kidney trouble, I wrote to the agents unsolicited, telling them about my cure and stating that if my recommendation would help the preparation along I would be only too pleased to furnish it. It has appeared in our Providence newspapers since, and now In the month of May, 1899, em- phatically state there Is not one word I wish to retract. On the other hand, I am only too pleased to re-endorse prep aration which acts so faithfully to the representations made for it as Doan's Kidney Pills"

He Photographed Up One Flight.

That New York is a big city which the stranger seldom learns very well was quite forcibly impressed upon a certain we'll known Californian a few days ago. He visits New York twice a year and has long since learned to find his way about.
 He was charging about in the busi- ness district and suddenly remembered that he wanted to telegraph to Q friend whose offices are at 195 Broadway. The Californian dashed Into the near est telegraph office, wrote out his dis patch and, covering 1t with the coin, passed 1t through the wicket to the receiver. The receiver smiled.
 What is the matter?" demanded the Californian.
 "Why, this is 195 Broadway" said the receiver, land your man Is up just one flight of stairs"
 There was a confused period that lasted about second, and when the Californian got his nerve back he calm ly said: 'I know that. Let 1t go any way. I guess I can telegraph across the room or this counter If l want to and have the money. We do that thing out In California every day for joke"
 The receiver may have been bluffed, but as receivers go they are hard to lmpress.-San Francisco Chronicle.

ing" you call 1t peoples eccentric ity," and while we kick off the side walk the poor wretch who has not the means to garnish his iniquity, these lords and ladies, wrapped fin purple and In linen, go unwhipped of public justice. An, the most dreadful part of the whole thing Is, that there are per sons abroad whose whole business 1t is to despoil the young. What an eter- nifty such a man will have! As the door opens to receive him thousands of voices will cry out, See here what you have done," and the wretch will wrap himself with fiercer flame and leap into deeper darkness, and the multitude he has destroyed will pursue him and hurl at him the long, bitter, relentless, everlasting curse of their own anguish. If there be one cup of eternal darkness more bitter than an- other, they will have to drink 1t to the dregs. If in all the ocean of the lost world that comes billowing up there be one wave more fierce than another, 1t will dash over them. But there Is hope for all who will turn.
 I stood one day at Niagara falls, and I saw what you may have seen there-six rainbows bending over that tremendous plunge. l never saw any thing like 1t before or since. Six beau tiful rainbows arching that great cata- ract! And so over the rapids and an- gry precipices of sin, where so many have been dashed down, Gods beauti- full admonitions hover, a warning arch ing each peril-six of them, fifty of them, a thousand of them. Beware, beware, beware!
 Young men, while you have time to reflect upon these things and before the duties of the office and the store and the shop come upon you again, look over this whole subject, and after the day has passed and you hear in the nightfall the voices and footsteps of the city dying from your ear, and 1t gets so silent that you can hear dis tinctly your watch under your pillow
 going tick, tick" then open your eyes and look out upon the darkness and see two pillars of light, one horizontal, the other perpendicular, but changing their direction until they come togeth- CT, and your enraptured vision beholds 1.-the cross.

One of the most remarkable docu- ments that have ever come under our observation Is to be found in the case of ex parte Scoggin, 6 Tex. App. 546. MT. Scoggin was under indictment for the murder of one William Gerard, and an extract from a memorandum book In defendants handwriting and found near the body ran as follows:

THE BOER WAR.
Two Lute Reports Received From
 Lord Roberts.

Two Lute Reports Received From
 Lord Roberts.
 Lord Roberts reports to the war office, under date of Pretoria, Aug. 13, as fol- .ows:
 Kitchener reports from Schoolplaats, eight miles east of Nentersdorp, that De Wet blew up three of his own wagons. Six British prisoners who escaped from De Vets camp state that Mir. Steyn is confined in the camp under surveillance and that De Wet was forced to abandon his ammunition and 30 horses. and they confirm the report that Methuen captur- ed one of De Vets guns and shelled the main convoy effectually.
 Ian Hamilton telegraphs that he hopes to be at Blaauwbank today with his main body. Mahon's mounted troops are pushing on to the westward"
 Another report from Lord Roberts of the same date says:
 ''Methuen and Kitchener, still follow ing De Wet and Steyn, yesterday reach ed Modderfontein. ten miles east of Ven tersdorp. Methuen is in touch with De Vets rear guard.
 ''Smith-Dorien reports that the Shop shires recently marched 43 miles in 32 hours, and the City of London imperial volunteers went 30 miles in ten hours. hoping to prevent De Wet from crossing the Krugersdorp Potchefstroom railway.
 "Buller's occupation of Ermelo is hay ing a good effect.
 "A field cornet and 1S2 burghers of the Standerton commando surrendered yes terday to Clery."
 The London Daily News correspondent in Pretoria states that plot to shoot all the British officers there and make Lord D.ho ha. Everything was prepared in the plot 10 make Lord Roberts prisoner and shoot the British officers, and the conspiracy was only discovered at the last moment The conspirators numbered about 15. They had planned to set fire to the houses in the extreme western part of the city, hoping that the troops would be concentrated there. The plan was that then the conspirators were forcibly to enter all houses occupied by British officers, these having been previously marked and to kill the occupants

Plant Destroyed by Tornado.

At New Kensington, Pa, the plant of the Pittsburg Reduction company's alum nium works was partly destroyed by a tornado. The loss is estimated at not less than S100,000, and will entail clos ing down the works for an indefinite period. Frank Johnston, engineer was caught by the falling walls and is prob ably fatally injured. But few of the 250 employees are engaged on Sunday or the fatalities would have been seri- ous.

Connecticut western news., 1900-08-16

And what Is more perilous in regard to some of these temptations we may not mention them. While God In his Bible from chapter to chapter thunder ed his denunciations against these crimes, people expect the pulpit and the printing press to be silent on the subject, and just in proportion as peo- pie are impure are they fastidious on this theme. They are so full of decay and death they do not want their sep ulchers opened. God will turn into destruction all the unclean, and no splendors of surrounding can make decent that which he has smitten. God will not excuse sin merely because 1t has costly array and beautiful tapestry and palatial residence any more than he will excuse that which crawls, blotch of sores, through the lowest eel lar. Ever and anon, through some law suit, there flashes upon the people of our great cities what Is transpiring in seemingly respectable circles. You call 1t high life" .yQu, call 1t fast liy-
