Tien-Ts sin.

Tien-tsin is really two cities-the
native walled city and the foreign
quarter outside the walls.
It's Chinese population is over $780,
600, and by its position on the Peiho
river it has a great commerce and is
the key to Picking.
About 10000 Chinese troops and
boxers hold the walled city or positions
of vantage in the environs.
Cannon placed on the walls have con-
/ tinuously bombarded the foreign quar-
ter since July 5, destroying many build
! ings.
Up to July IL about 10000 allies un,
der Vice Admiral Seymour held the
foreign quarter, but their lines. had
been steadily pushed back by the
Chinese.
On the 18th the Ninth United States
infantry, l 400 strong. and a force Of
Russians and japanese reached Tien-
sin. bringing up the allied force TO
10000 men.
On the 18th 1000 allies attacked the
walled city in order to destroy the guns
and drive out the Chinese
The Chinese under General Nah and
General Mich had many rapid-fre
guns and repulsed the allies
Failure to carry the walled cities
will necessitate the retreat of the al
-. -
all China in triumph, and probably to
outbreaks all over the country.
All women and children and male
noncombatants have been sent from
Tien-Tsin for safety They numbered
about $50 persons.

Tag the Babies.

Chicago has evolved an idea The
police of that breezy city are siren
uously endeavoring to impress upon
mothers that no child should be al
lowed to go out of doors without an
Identification badge sewed somewhere
on it's clothing The idea might be
adopted with advantage in other cities.
Scarcely a day passes in any large city
on which at least several children are
not lost The family starts on
frantic search and generally wastes
hours before applying for police aid.
while the child may be crying some
where in a police station II the iden'
tiflcation badge with name and address
was on the child the policeman would
have taken II home long before and
saved much worry.

Smoking Away Fortunes.
Unique Designs That Go to Make Up a
Connoisseur's Room.

The men who know a good cigar
when they smoke it, have not been de-
tered by the increase in the price of
tobacco from revealing in their favorite
perfectos. And TO the everyday
smoker, that is. the man who smoke.
TWO or three cigars for a quarter, or he
who revels in a nickel smoke. or even
he who finds his ideal in a Pittsburg
stogy, the prices paid by the real con.
noisseur are, Of course, astonishing.
There is newspaper proprietor in
New York who will pay almost any
price for perfect. mild cigar In
fact, at one time he had thousand
cigars specially selected for him in
Havana, and willingly paid $500 for the
lot, An eighty-cent after-dinner
smoke is the usual thing with him.
Former Senator Brice was another
connoisseur, and he went the newspa.
per proprietor several better by pay.

Duchess in Prospect.

Neither the penniless duke of Man.
chester nor the rich and beautiful Miss
Helena Zimmerman of Cincinnati, will
discuss the reported engagement Of
marriage between them. Their silence
is generally taken to give assent to the
story. Miss Zimmerman, who is the
daughter of Eugene Zimmerman of
Cincinnati is worth $1,000,000 and II
is expected that she will eventually in.
herit eight or ten millions more from
the estate of her father. Mr.. thinner.
mans money was made as a railroad
contractor and in promoting and con.
trolling street railway corporations.
Miss Zimmerman spent last winter in
England and created something of
furora in society. On her return to
this country she was followed across
the water by NJ. Garlic tombstone. who
is chiefly known as private secretary to
the duke of Manchester. 1t developed
tuat Mr.. tombstone came to plead his
own cause rather than that of his en-
ployer and he got short notice. Eugene
Zimmerman forbade him his house,
and the discounted young Englishman
went back across the water without

mans opinions on the proposed match
between Miss Helena and the noble
duke have not been made public.

Padding 5000 Miles.

somewhere down along the Atlan,i,
coast is big birch bark canoe II q,
occupied and padded by two Ipdia,
Chiefs. The leader is old Big Tbunda,
head chief Of the Penobscot tribe who
owns Old Town Island in Maine pis
Thunder is nearly SO years old. but be
is still a giant in stature and in
strength. Early this srping the old
chief made up his mind that before ha
died he would like to visit the Great
White Father at his big wigwam in
Washington. Accordingly, a buga
birch canoe was built for the TRIP. and
several weeks ago Big Thunder. whose
other name is Frank Loring, and
minor chief, Peter Nicola, started down
the Penobscot river to the sea. From
the mouth Of the river they intend IN
paddle down the coast to the Potomac
and thence up to Washington. The
trip they have undertaken is a trife
over 5000 miles long, and they intend
to take their time about il. The canoe
has already been sold to man in
Washington, who will pay the Indians
$1,000 for it, with the idea Of present
ing it to the Smithsonian Institution
The two Indians will live on the fish
they may be able to catch on the way
and both expect to pay their respects
to President Mckinley in the white
house.

ing $1,000 for a thousand cigars.
There is nothing peculiar about these
high.priced cigars except, perhaps, In
the fancy packing and the extremely
careful selection. To the taste of the
ordinary smoker they are no better
than a good twenty-five-cent cigar.
Terrell. the sugar maguate, has paid as
high as 1000 for a thousand cigars.
The importers who make speciality
Of handling the finest cigars in the
market find the clubs their best Gus
toners. and the brands that sell very
extensively are those costing all the
way from 5000 to $500 a thousand.
The man-of.leisure who enjoys q
quiet smoke In his own home, far
away from business and club associ'
ations, generally manages to surround
himself with accessories that add 20
the luxury OF these after-dinner occa-
sions. There is one New Yorker who
has had a bear set up as dumb-wait-
or. carving in one hand, or rather
paw, an electric lamp with frosted
globe. and in the other tray with a
couple OF boxes OF cigars and some pa
per pipe-rghts in a liquor glass.

If any one enters the doctors smok-

peering from over the mirror there a
hideous skull. while two fleshless
hands clasp candlesticks on either

greatly dispened by the fact that the
