HANNA MAY GO ON THE STUMP,
A Great Call in Several Parts of the Country.

New York, Aug. 6-Secretary Perry S. Heath, after a consultation with Sem ator Hanna to-day said: q told Sena- tor Hanna that there is great call in several parts of the country for Senator Hanna to come and talk to the people. It is very propable that he will do this towards the end of the campaign. I think l have induced him to do so. He regarded the call as a joke at first, but he has taken 1t seriously and will prob ably go into the states which I cannot mention at present"
 MT. Heath further said: "The exact situation in many states will not be known till organization is perfected and polls taken. We have great calls for literature on all other issues of the cam paign except that of imperialism. Most of it is in regard to the general pros perity of the country and 16 eo 1'' He also said that speakers would probably not be sent out for mass meetings held till September l. Several states had sent for popular speakers and there was difficulty in assigning the favorites be- cause some states asked for them at the same time. A flood of literat ture had been sent out, especially to the doubtful states

ing between them and the Yamen, as well as reporting the sending of sup pliesto the legations by the Yamen The message contains this important state ment: "A successful termination of the conference with the ministers for their conveyance under escort to Tien Tsin Is expected but on account of the re-commencement of hostilties at Tien Tsin, code telegrams for transmission to the representatives are considered undesirable"
 This appears to confirm the statement that the Chinese government will en- deavor to stop the march to Pekin by using the ministers as hostages
 The St. Petersburg correspondent of the Daily Mail says: Active negotia- tions are proceeding between Russia and the United States the probable outcome of which will be a resolution to uphold the integrity of China un- conditionally''
 The Standards Shanghai representa- tive wiring Sunday says: Tt is clear that the march to the relief of Pekin will be anything but walkover. Jap anese scouts have discovered a large force of Chinese southwest of Tien Tsin and another large force in the vicinity of Lu Tai to the eastward.

THE SAVIN ROCK THEATER.
Last Nights Performance Witnessed
 by an Enthusiastic Audience

Last Nights Performance Witnessed
 by an Enthusiastic Audience.
 The Savin Rock theater was filled with an enthusiastic audience last evening which witnessed a company of matchless merit present a programme of novelties. Reeds dogs, a wonderful trio of canines named Dixie. Goldie and Ginger, went through a very amusing act. Fred Wyckoff, the comedy enter tainer, introduced many original char acter Representations and Howard and Buskirk, the novelty musical entertain CTS, also executed a novel act. Winona and Banks Winter presented a comedy skit entitled Cousin Fdwins Visit" Miss Winter is a most graceful win some and accomplished juvenile come- dienne and vocalist and the singing of both solos and duets was a pleasing feature. The Herald Square quartette amused the large audience with their songs and fancy sayings and were re- peatedly encored Dick Farnum and Arthur J. Seymor, America's greatest and best comedy jumpers, entertained in many difficult acrobatic Surns. Next Friday afternoon after the afternoon performance. day fireworks will be given on the water front about 4:30 o'clock. Wednesday, August 15. the an- nua baby show will take place. En- try blanks can now be had at M. Mann & Bros. store, 7S6 Chapel street.

| German workers have an interest in tn | factory. and they find more reason fo working such long hours than if the! were employed by the day They art in love with their work, and during the months when the factories are oper they make slaves of themselves. Bu they do not by any means impair theil health by so doing. Most of them are 1 the very picture of health, and some are veritable giants, turning one hun dred and fifty pound cheese with the ease of a child turning platter. Sun days as well as holidays are considered | legitimate days of labor, and they toi continually, except when the cheese fac tories are closed. Then they take life easier, and do little odd jobs of repair ing on the place.
 The cellars where the cheeses are kept for drying and curing are initiated after those in the Alps, where some of our best cheese is made. The cellars are made of stone with stone arches built crudely overhead but with no cement flooring, and in some cases very poor ventilating. Arrangements are made in these cellars so a fire can keep the tenn
 
 make-rooms where the cheese Is turned out into molds and kneaded up to the proper consistency are primitive sheds, with the roofs and rafters we'll pre- served by smoke. They are, in fact, an exact duplicate of an old picture of 8 Swiss cheese factory. The kettles in which the milk and cream are heated are heavy copper ones, having capac- ity of two to five thousand pounds of milk. These are sometimes hung on cranes; but more often they are at tached to brick furnaces, where they can be kept firm and steady while the operator manipulates with their con- tents. Then there are the presses, great heavy oaken arrangements made by the operators which can press two hun dred pound cheese so readily that the water and whey will squirt in all di- rections These oaken levers are made of twelve by twelve blanks of solid live oak.
 The Hamburger, Swiss and Brick cheese made by this Swiss colony have all the attributes of the imported vari- ety. The makers of the domestic kinds are experts in their work, and they nave the patience In curing the product which the average American farmer lacks. To make such cheese as comes from the dairies of Switzerland, France and Germany one must devote time and energy to the curing process. which, af- ter all, is the great secret of these for eign products. There are many things that the inhabitants of the Wisconsin Alps could learn from American far n1ers, such as the adoption of improved utensils, little more cleanliness, the aeration of the milk, and the cultiva- ton of more general farm crops; but, on the other hand. the average Ameri- can farmer could learn patience dili- gence and thoroughness in working out details from these Swiss dairymen- George F. Walsh in the New York In- dependent.

HOME FROM CHINA.
The Logan Arrives With Refugees and
 Soldiers from Tien Tsin.

Soldiers from Tien Tsin.
 San Frncisco, Aug. 6.-Bluejackets, marines, soldiers of the Ninth infantry and refugees crowded the transport Lo- gan, from Taku via Japan, which reached here to-day. There were men, women and children on the vessel, di- rect from Tien Tsin, who had escaped from the mobs of Chinese. Two chil- dren of United States Consul Ragsdale at Tien Tsin were on board, as were J. M. Mussen, Shanghai Mrs. Drew, Mrs. Tenny and four children; Mrs. Pike and four children; Mrs. Lowry and three children; Mir. and Mrs. Gaynor and three children; Miss Jones, MT. Pike, MT. Diffendorfer and MT. Mcintosh, Ia ku, Rev IT w. Hondline, wife and son; Mrs. Frank F. Davis, Mrs. Mon- telle Miss Tillie Fahr, Tien Tsin; pr. N $. Hopkins, wife and three children; Mrs H. E. King and three children; MT and Mrs. Smith, Che Foo; the Miss es Drew, L. Drew, O. c. Clifford. wife and child; Edward Wilson, Yokohama; and about one hundred invalded sol diers.
 The Logan conveyed the Ninth infan- try from Manila to Taku, together with detachment of the signal corps. At Taku one hundred and seventy Chris tian refugees from Tien Tsin were talk en aboard, all except forty-eight of whom left the Logan at Nagasaki pr. R. E. Diffendorfer of Philadelphia,

builder and manager of the first Woolen | mill in the Chinese empire and friend l of Poo Tong, a brother to the former Chinese emperor, said:
 "On the morning of July F the first clash between the foreigners and the empires soldiers occurred. On the af- ternoon of the same day the lombard
 ment of the Taku forts began. Cap | tain Bailey of the British ship orlando was commander of the allied force at Tien Tsn on July +, as Captain Me Calla was absent with Seymour at the ! time. About Il o'clock he saw smoke rising from the railroad track about four miles distant from the city, and, suspecting that the Boxers had fired another bridge, he ordered bluejackets, commanded by a midshipman, to inves- tigate. We had three-inch gun. When we had travelled about three miles we found a bridge partially burned, and, considering 1t unsafe to cross, our com- mander ordered his men to return. We had gone back about three hundred yards, when We saw lot of Chinese soldiers crossing the track ahead of us. As we approached them all doubt of their being imperial troops disappear ed. They did not wear the red turban and sash that distinguished the Box CTS, and as soon as we got near them they scattered and got behind grave mounds, with which the country was studded
 Being suspicious, our midshipman gave the order for a volley and they quickly returned the salute. Our field piece was minus sight and most of its shots passed over the enemy, so that after ten minutes of fighting we ,resum- ed our retreat, the Chinese firing at us as long as we were within range. There were TO casualties on our side.
 T am inclined to believe that our attack on the Chinese troops precpi- tated the bombardment of the city. The skirmish may attain some import ance when final settlements are being made"
 Dr. Diffendorfer believes that the trouble In China will last a couple of years.
 Tt will be repetition of the Taep- ing rebellion" he said" When the al- lies have captured Pekin the Boxers will be broken into bands of maraud- CTS"
 Charles Mcintosh, Toronto man but an American citizen, who was Dr. Diffendorfer'ss assistant, both having been in the woolen mill at Tlen Tsin, where the Chinese were held at bay be- fore the first relief came through, said:
 I think must have spent about fif- teen days in the tower of the mill I was doing sharp shooting most of the time. We got rifles from the arsenals and how many Chinamen they brought to death I don't know. I tried to run three engines out of Tlen Tsin, but did not get far. I think We must have got half way through. Bodies of Chinese were lying all along the track headless and butchered by the Boxers. The Boxers fought with spears and knives until they got in with the imperial troops and would not use foreign guns Now they have lot of them and they shoot we'll"

ATE PIES AND DRANK MILK.
Dolly Dead at Thirty Years-Leonard
 Jacobs Famous Mare Killed.

r,o1lv Dead at Thirty Years-Leonard Jacobs Famous Mare Killed.
 Derby, Aug. 1.--Leonard Jacoos Was compelled to kill one of his horses on Sunday night, because or US eAereiile old age, being about thirty years oiu'
 The mare had quite a history ana TOT many years was one of the most farnll- far ones that passed through the city Her mamie was Dolly" and MT Jacops' buying her when she was apouI eishl years old. drove her to his pie oellVels wagon for about seventeen years 0hg went through the city every day anu e'i along the route was known py the clili- dren where she stopped. About nVe wears ago she had to be taken OH tli' route and has since been kept py Mi Jacobs for the good she has done' one
 was given good care and when on her feet, seemed about as spry and glddy as q youna thing of eighteen but when che got down she radn't the power 10 get up. Sunday she got ooWn III oau place and it was decided to XII ilei'
 w. w. Blakeman committed the niul- der. deliberately shooting the mare III the forehead, and with such preclsloii she expired instantly. It almost nrohe the hearts of MT Jacobs and MT. Blake man; they thought so much or the mare.
 Dolly had the pie habit. Assoclatioh ,yith that New England production SD long had created a craving TOT tiie tootbsome article which 1t was nara to satisfy. MT. Jacobs led her astray oy feeding her pieces of pie when ne iounu thern broken. or whenever he luncheu in his wagon Soon if became necessa- rv to give her a piece every day. anu finally if was decided to one day try her capacity. She ate four before she refused a crumb. After that the stale niae were given to her and she lived Tn iuxurv. from the small boys viewpoint.
 Along with the pie habit sne ueVei, oped thirst for milk, a most natural thing, as the two go together, ana every time a pan of milk was set out TOT the chickens Dolly would dr1nK II up' Il she could get a chance at it.
 After she was retired Dolly always watched for the return Of her master from delivering pies and met him at the eate to receive her allowance. She seemed to have no preference as to the kind of pie given her, unless, being or New England stock, it was for New England pumpkin pie.
 To show that Dolly had plenty or common sense, Mir. Jacobs tells many stories of her travelling about the city, stopping where customers lived ana waiting until her driver told her to move on. She would turn the wagon around on the streets where the route ended and travel to the next street. It wasn't safe to leave anything to eat be- hind a door which had an ordinary latch on it, for the mare would open that every time. When catches were placed over the latches she would push them back and open the door Finally plugs had to be driven in and she did not live long enough to solve the mys- tery of pulling out the plugs.

IT HUNG CHANCES EXPLANATION.
Boxers Movement Directed Chiefly
 Against Native Christians,

Berlin, Aug. 6-The Lokal Anzeiger publishes an interview which pr. Zaker, its special China correspondent, had with Ii Hung Chang at Canton, July 5, Earl Lii told the correspondent that the Boxers were not rebels, but were true to tho royal house. Their movement he explained, was directed chiefly against native Christians, who had been using international protection to op- press Boxers.
 With reference to the missionaries he said: Tt is my firm conviction that the missionaries are always In danger for the relations between the Chinese population and foreigners have been the cause of nearly all the troubles and will always continue to be-
 Earl u went on to say that Chinese hatred of foreigners had been increased of late through the action of the pow CTS, particularly in the seizure of Kiao Chou, which he described "as an ex- orbitant penalty for a couple of mis- sionaries'
 Referring to the murder of Baron Ketteler, German minister at Pekln, he gave a positive assurance that neither Prince Tuan nor any other member of the government knew of the intended killing and he also declared that Baron Von Ketteler was not killed because he was German, but simply because he was foreigner. In a word, he was a victim of the Chinese hatred of foreign CTS.
 "The Chinese government is not strong enough to put down the Boxers" said Earl Lii. "but the thought of ac- cepting assistance from the powers to put them down is extremely repugnant to the government" Tn reply to a question as to who was the head of the central government he said 1t was ad- ministered by Prince Yuan in the name of the emperor.
