As a matter Of fact, China is a
country OF walls and for centuries
European nations havetried to break
through them, says the Cleveland
Press. Pekin, the capital, and the
seat of the present disturbance, was

pierced by nine gates. At present,
Pekin consists Of two portions, the
northern or inl.er city, and the
southern, or outer city. The wall
around the inner or official city av-
erages so feet high, 40 feet wide at
the top and 60 at the bottom. That
around the outer city is 30 feet high,
25 feet at the bottom and ID at the
top. A parapet runs around the en-
tire town, intended evidently for
archers or musketeers, as no holes
for cannon exist. A ditch also sur
rounds the city.
Square buttresses occur at inter
walls Of about 90 yards, each pro-
jecting 80 feet, every sixth one being
twice the size Of the others.

CHILD LOST 40 HOURS.
Wandered OF in the Noun
tains One Dark Night.

DR.. Brock returned a few DAYS since
from professional visit to Bonanza, and
brought back with him this interesting
story OF lost child. There is a family,
consisting OF father, mother and two small
children, camped near that place. Their
names he did not learn. One night re.
Gently. between seven aud eight o'clock,
during the absence of the father. the
mother was preparing her little three or
tour wear old girl for bed, having taken off
the outer, heavier clothing. Her back
was turned moment, her attention being
attracted by the other child. When she
again started to care tor the little girl, the
latter was gone.
Calling to her and receiving no re.
sponSe, the mother stepped outside ot the
tent To see II she was there. The night
was very dark, aud 80 the puzzled mother
brought out a lantern aud searched Tor the
little one. Failing TO find it aud nov
thoroughly frightened, She notified some
near by campers who joined IN the search.
They having failed after Il couple OF hours
hard work, the story was carried To fo'
nanla, when a large number OF miners
organized themselves into parties, syStlm
atzed the plan ot operation and renewed
the search. All OF that night, the next
day, the following night and halt OF the
next forenoon did the child hunt continue
before the object OF the search was tount.
The little girl was quietly sitting on a
log, picking spllnters out OF her feet.
Having been SO long without TODD, the
men who found her thought that IN all
probabilities she would have been starved
and frightened into insanity, and sought
to approach her cautiously. But she saw
them coming and greeted them with 4 dc.
lighted "howdy do" When she lett the
tent she had on her shoes and stockings.
When found the former had disappeared
and the latter were worn out Asked
what had become Of her shoes, she said
she had taken them OF when she went
10 sleep.
The little girl was very tall<ative and
told Of the day before seeing a great big
black dog with two puppies, which she
tried to catch, "but they ran away after
their mamma" bear and
her cubs. The child was quite four miles
from the tent. at a point,in order TO reach
which,a canyon would have to he crossed
that few men other than experienced
mountain climbers would attempt to cross.
The mothers experiences, fears, an.
guish, despair, hope and finally joy. would
make ano,her story, but should not be
tampered with by profane hands.

anna
The ambulance corps of the British
warship Leander came ashore and went
to CorOZalla and rendered valuable
assistance. The corps returned to the
ship the same evening. So far both
forces are behaving in a commendab BILE
manner. There has been no interfer-
ence with railway traffic. All business
in Panama has been suspended since
Friday evening.

INTO A LANDSLIDE.
Passenger Train Wrecked on the
Milwaukee Road.

La Crosse, Wis. July 24.-The Chi
cago, Milwaukee & st. Paul passenger
train No. 2. which is due here at sos
a. m, was wrecked about 5 o'clock this
morning at Kings Coolie, near Wabash,
Mimi. by running into a landslide at
that place. Engineer Hathaway and
Fireman Thomas were instantly killed
and several passengers who were in the
forward coaches were injured, some Sc
riously.
The track runs between high bluffs
and the Mississippi river between St
Paul and La Crosse and the heavy
rains of yesterday loosened a vast
amount of earth on a steep bluff which
gave way shortly before the train came
along. Trains passing there only a
short time before report no trouble ex-
cept a soft track.
A wrec.-ing train has been sent to
the scene from here.

JAKE SHEPPARD'S TROUBLE.
The Jake Sheppard boom for attorney
general is not receiving much support
Sheppard has his hands busy with the
convention. He is the pusher, the NOV
ing spirit in the city of FortScOtt and he
hasn't time to look after nominations.
The POpuliSt state committee at
tempted to call Sheppard down because
he distributed 450 tickets to the Popu-
list convention. 4 gave the tickets to
subscribers to the convention hall fund
and they are entitled to them and I am
not going to turn them down.
The trouble was finally adjusted and
Sheppard's tickets We're honored.
MAKE NO SELECTIONS
The Populist committee held a meet
ing Monday evening and by vote of Z

Parsons for sergeant at arms. He is to
name three assistants from each con-

circular letter sent out to the workers:
Dear Sir:-I enclose you two blanks
upon the one of which 1 desire the
names and addresses of men in your
township who in 1896 voted for Bryan
but who you are convinced will vote for
Mckinley this year also want in
each case the voters occupation his ma
tionality and the reasons, if any, he as
signs for his changed attitude. Upon
the other blank l want the names and
addresses of men who in 1896 voted for
Mckinley but who you have reason to
believe will vote for Bryan this year,
together with their occupation, nation
ality and reasons assigned.
You will note that 1896 and 1900 are the
years to be considered.
You Will please be very careful and
get the right names on the respective
blanks as otherwise this committee
might be lead, inadvertently, into a IA
tai error.
In securing the names for these blanks
l beg to advise that you consult num-
Der of the active Republicans of your
precinct, including y6ur postmaster.
Add their judgment and information to
your own.
1t is very important that these lists be
made as complete and accurate as pos
s1ble- This is probably as important in
formation as this committee will re-
quest at any time during the campaign.
1t is information that it is necessary for
US to have now. Hence, 1 urge you not
to delay securing it. Should there be no
us to that effect. Under any circum-
stances we want to hear from you reIa-
tive to the matter.
1 appreciate the fact that this means
work but in assuming the responsible
ties of committeeman for your precinct
this year you have in a measure become
responsible for the success of the cam
paign, and I hope that at all times We
will have your hearty cooperation and
that communications from this commit
tee will receive your very prompt at
tention.
In this connection I would call atten-
ton to the fact that you have so far
failed to report names of helpers or the
list of doubtful voters as requested of
you in a communicate ton from me of re-
cent date Please do this at once. E.v-
cry days delay upon your part DELAYS

your county just that much.

PLEADS FOR FUSION.
Chairman Hoffman Assures Demo-
Gratis of Good Intentions.

Especial TO the state JOurnal-I
Fort Scott, July 24.-In taking the Of
nee OF temporary chairman, c. B. HO1f-
man made an extended address in which
he asserted that the Peoples party is
responsible for the reform tendencies of
the Democratic party. He made a plea
Tor fusion and said that the Democratic
party is just as anxious to do what is
right as the Populists. This statement
was applauded. He addressed himself
TO the Socialists and said:
This is not the time to stay off and
hold up that banner which some day we
VIII all follow" Shouts and applause
followed this socialistic declaration. Nj.
Hoffman charged that ii is the plan of
plutocracy to fOist the doctrine of inn
perlahsm upon the country.
Senator King, the defeated candidate
for chairman, was then called before the
convention Party harmony was the
keynote of his speech.
w T Upton was elected temporary
secretary by acclamation and A d Gill
pm OF Lincoln county and Sol Long of
ELK were elected assistants. Judge c. L.
tOote was called for and created a great
deal OF enthusiasm by a carefully pre-
pared speech

David Martin should be turned down.
Judge Milton of Garden City, one of
the judges Of the appellate court, is also
a late entry in the race for associate
justice.
ED LITTLE'S BOOM
Col. E C. Little has arrived and is
mingling with the delegates Col. Lit
tie has suddenly sprung into prominence
as a candidate for congressman at large
but he could hardly be called a candi-
date. This is what he says:
My people know who I am and what
I have done and if they want to give me
the nOminatiOn as congressman at large
I shall not refuse but will be compli-
mented. I do not wish. however, to be
considered as a candidate
In the halcyon days of Populism this
kind of talk would have almost been a
passport to the nomination but those
days are gone and now Popuhsts, like
Republicans and Democrats galIop
across the prairies after the offices and
the man who goes the fastest wins the
prize. J. D. Botkin has done the gal
Looping and it is doubtful if even Ed
Little's brilliant service in the Twen-
tieth Kansas will secure the nomina-
ton
