He was a minister of the Episcopa-
lian fold-an Anglican priest" as he
would have expressed it-and he be-
lieved most ardently in the wisdom
and advisability of a cellbate priest

"The church demands and should re-
ceive absolute singleness of devotion
from her priests" was the way he
stated the matter to his friends.
She was an artist, firm in the belief
that real devotion to art admitted of
no other loves or devotions.
"One cannot serve the gods and at
family altar" was her manner of stat
ing the case.

He had been in England, studying
the semi-monastic orders Of the Angli-

been sketching in France and Ger
many, closing her trip with flying
visit to London and Liverpool. He
was fICn New York; she from Chi
cago. Their principles were exactly
alike, only they didn't know it. But
it only took them ten days to dis

He was attracted to her because Of
certain high pureness of face and
bearing Which set her far apart from

firtat!ous ether women who sat at her

clusion that he undoubtedly chad
something in him." because Of the
quiet reserve of his manner. A long
acquaintance with art had taught her
that it is the face-as the picture
which holds something in reserve that
usually proves worthy of study and
cultivation. Besides, the high vest and
large silver cross, which stamped him
as a ritualist among ritualists, and
therefore, most likely believer in cell
ibacy, made her feel perfectly, delight
fully safe in enjoying his company.

A CHINESE wEYLER.
The Present situation in the Capital.


Shanghai, Aug. 7.-Sheng, the Chi
nese director of telegraphs, the only
Chinese official on the coast who is in
direct communication with the impe-
rial authorities at Pekin, granted me
special interview today. This is the
first occasion on which Sheng has con-
sented to talk for publication to any
newspaper.
Sheng lifts the veil that hides the
Chinese capital, tells what happened
up to Aug. l, sums up the situation
there, AID tells in unmistakable words
what he believes the outcome will be.
The correspondent has told how two
members of the Tsung-Li-Yamen were
put to death for alleged friendliness to
the foreigners.
Sheng confirms this, gives out for
the first time the names of the unfor-
tunate officials and reveals the circum-
stances.
The victims of Ii Ping lungs wrath
were Hsu Ching Cheng, formerly min
lister to Russia and more recently i'm
perial director general of railways, and
Yuan Chang. They had been doing
good work in suppressing the Boxers,
and lad supported the efforts of Prince
Ching to save the foreign ministers
an, restor order in Pekin.
For this they incurred the displeas-
ure OF L. Ping Hung, the butcher and
arch enemy of Christians, and notwith-
standing their high Office as members
of the Tsung-Li-Yamen, they were led
out on July % and beheaded as a
warning to others who might seek to
befriend the besieged ministers. Prince
Ching protested, Sheng declares, but
his efforts were Nnavailing.
This pits a new and graver aspect
on the situation in Pekin. Sheng de-
clares Ii Ping Hung, the Chinese Wey-
Ter, is the master there
Gen. T'lng Fuh Slang, Sheng de-
clares. has 10000 troops, all wild de-
mons. in the vicinity of PelIin. He
fears that should the allies force an
entrance to Pekin Tung Fuh Slang
will compel the emperor and dowager
empress to evacuate the palace and
place themselves under his protection.
Then lie will, most likely, murder the
foreign ministers.
Unless Tung Fuh Slang is suppress
ed Sheng fears that there is no hope
for the legations. Bloody massacres
will surely result. Liza Kung, Chang
Chi t. g, Ii Hung Chang and himself,
Cheng says, sent an urgent message to
the empress praying that Gen. Jung
Lu be permitted to escort all the for
eign ministers to Tientsin, where the
viceroys could meet and care for them.
This was sent prior to July 20, on
which day Ii Ping Hung arrived in Pc
kin and had an audience with the en-
peror.
On Aug. the same viceroys sent a
simii..- memorial.
Sheng received an answer to the first
memorial today, in the form of an i'm
perial edict, dated July 80, ordering
Jung Lu to provide an escort for the
ministers to Tientsin whenever the
latter should fix the date for the de-
parture.
There was no intimation, however,
whether the minister's would avail,
themselves of this chance of reaching
the coast or would regard it with sus-
picion OF treachery and wait in Pekin
for the arrival of the relief column.
The edict further declares that the
ministers may receive messages not in
cipher.

guard. With such a heavy loss, ~

The american troops were in the
t.ick Of the fight.
The battle took place at Pei Tsang,
small town nine miles north Of Tien-

The Amel lean forces consisted Of the

The Chinese forces numbered 10000
men and were strongly intrenched be-
hind heavy entertainments thrown up
around the town. They had heavy
guns, which they handled with deadly
accuracy.

Greeted by Blaze of Fire.

When the advance line Of the allies
approached the town it was greeted
by a blaze of fire and storm of shell
which for the time stopped it. The at
tack had been carefully planned, how
ever, and the troops were rushed into
position. Rapid fire guns poured shot
into the intrenched enemy, but had NO
appreciate effect on the return fire.
At O'Clock the allies decided to
charge the town. The Japanese and
Russians being the strongest were
given the post of honor. They led
the charge, the British and Americans
backing them up admirably.

Chinese Guns sllenced.

At 1920 the Chinese guns were ST.
fenced and the hordes Of imperial
troops beat a disordered retreat, leav-
ing the town in possession Of the en-
envy.
OF the casualties suffered by the al
lies no details are at hand. 1t is known,
however, that they lost 200 killed and
wounded. The Chinese lost nearly
5000 killed and wounded.
The march On to Pekin is delayed in
definitely. The town of Pei Tsang is
now a vast hospital. Every facility of
the allies hospital corps and equip
ment is taxed to it's limit, and runners
have been sent to Tientsin for assist
ance.
While the allies won a victory its
awful cost has convinced them that
the relief OF PeEin is not to be accom-
plished without assistance.

story of how a woman fooled in love is

concerned are from Barbour county,

man ia the case and Susan q. Dent is
the woman. The woman years ago re-
covered a judgment for $4,000 against
Pckens in a suit for breach of promise
and as Pickens was then considered
one of the rich men of the county it
looked as If her broken heart was to be
healed with gold threads. But Miss
Dent sOon found out that getting p
judgment and collecting were two dif-
ferent things. She tried in vain. but in
spite of Pckens' seeming wealth, good
crops and other signs she could not COL
lect. She hired lawyer and PickeDe
hired couple. Her faithless lover filed
a petition in bankruptcy. His lisbili.
lies are placed OF $2S 500. The case
now is motion of Pickens to get rid CT
