to have usurped authority at Pekin, is
a Manchu. Ii Hung Chang, who has
been summoned to the capital, is a
pure-blooded Chinaman, and by some
authorities is regarded as the ablest
statesman in the empire. In Mr..
fuckers opinion the Manchu princes
are the Bourbons of China. They have
ruled so long over the empire that
they have become impatient of any in
reference from the outside world. Al
though the Manchus are Outlanders
they have raised the issue Of China
for the Chinese" The recent efforts
of European nations to secure parts OF
the territory of China have alarmed
them for the security of the empire, in
which they themselves are largely a
foreign element. III order to retain the
control which they won with the
sword the Manchus have now adopted
policy which would have excluded
them from China in the seventeenth
century if the Chinese had been strong
enough to enforce the doctrine

BOER-BRITISH WAR.

Lord Roberts reports that the boer

will number 1000.
The circle around General De Wet
and Steyn is being narrowed gradually
by the British under Lord Kitchener
According to a dispatch from Oape
Town General Prinsloo has surren-

Lord Roberts has notified the Brisish
foreign office of general advance
from the position he has been holding
east of Pretoria.
Unconfrmed reports from Pretoria
say that the beers commandant, Cen
eral Botha, is making overtures to
Lord Roberts for surrender.
Joseph Chamberlain declares he
holds improper letters written by
members Of parliament to the boer
governments just before the outbreak
of the war.
In the house of commons liberals at
tackled Chamberlain south African
policy, moving as manifestation d
displeasure that his pay as colonial
secretary be cut down.
Richard Harding Davis, just back
in New York from south Africa. says
that the beers may yet win, holding
them in better shape than before

THE MANCHU DYNASTY

j. S. Tucker, of Washington, in an
article in the New York Sun, notes the
interesting coincidence that the Man
chu dynasty in China owes it's origin
in part to the murder of an ambas-
sador in the early part of the seven
teenth century. In 1913 Noorhachu,
prince of the Manchu tribe of Tartars.
declared war against Waulch, of the
the Ming dynasty, then emperor of
of China. In the proclamation issued
by the Tartar Prince setting forth his
reasons for making war on the Chinese
dered his ambassador In the course
Of this war the Tartars captured the
capital of the Chinese province of Lii
Outing. The garrison was massacred
and the inhabitants of the town were
required to shave their heads in token
of submission to their conquerors. In
his history Of China Boulger says that
this is the first historical reference to
practice which is now universal in
China and that has become what may
be called national characteristic. All
that is known of the origin of the pig
tail is that it was first enforced as
badge of subjugation by the Manchus
and was made the one condition OF i'm
munity from massacre. Since the con-
quest of China, nearly 300 years ago,
the Manchus and the Chinese have re-
NAMED quite distinct. The principal
cities are sgarrisoned by Manchu regi-
ments, in which no Cinnamon are al
lowed to serve On the other hand,
the armies composed of Chinese have
some Manchus serving with them. Ac-
cording to Lord Beresford, whose re-
cent work on China is quoted by Mr..
Tucker, the armies about Pekin are
nearly all commanded by Manchu
princes Prince Tuan, who is alleged
