ADMIRAL SEYMOUR TELLS
OF His THRILLING MARCH

Yang, two trains left to follow on were
attacked on June Is. by Boxers and i'm
perial troops from Pel1in, who lost from
400 to 500 killed Our casualties were
six killed and forty eight wounded.
These trains joined me at Yang Tsun
the same evening.
THE railway at Yang Tsun was
found entirely demolished and the
trains could not be moved.
Compelled to Retreat.
The force being short of provisions
and hamDered with wounded COM
PEELED us to withdraw on Tien TSin,
with which we had not been in COM
mUnication for six days and our sup
plies had been cut off.
ION June 10 the wounded, with
necessaries, started by boat, the forces
marching alongside the river.
Opposition was experienced during
the whole course of the river from
nearly every village, The Boxers,
when defeated in one village, retired
to the next, and skilfully retarded our
advance by occupying we'll selected
positions from which they had to be
forced often at the point of the bayonet
and in face of a CALLING fire difficult to
locate.
Treachery by Chinese.
''On June % we made a night march,
arriving at daybreak opposite the i'm
perial armOry, above Tien Tsin, where
after friendly advances, a treacheEOus
heavy fire was opened, while our men
were exposed on the opposite river
bank.
THE enemy were kept in check by
rife fire in front, while their position
was turned by a party of marines and
seamen under Major Johnson. who
rushed and occupied one of the salient
points, Selling the guns.
THE Germans, lower down, silenced
two guns and. then crossed the river
and captured them.
The armOry was next occupied by
the combined forces. Determined at
tempts TO retake the armory were made
on the following day but unsuccess-
fully.
Found immense stores of guns, arms
and ammunition of the latest pattern
Several guns were mounted in our de-
tense and shelled the Chinese forts
I lower down.
Having found ammunition and rice
we could have held out for some days
/ but, being hampered with large num-
/ bers of wounded, I sent to Tien TsiI
! for a relieving force, which arrived or
! the morning of June Is.
THE armOry was eVaCuted and the
/ forces arrived at Tien Tsin on June 20
/ We burned the armOry.'

Daily Express, under yesterdays date,
SAYS;
Chinese officials aeclare that they
have imperial authority for stating
that the foreign ministers left Pekin
for Tien Tsin, via Pao Ting Flu, on
June 26 They had passports and were
escorted by a strong body of Chinese
troops. It is impossible to verify this
statement. and the cOnsuls here are
not disposed to place much faith in it.
Jung Lu, former generalisimo of
the Chinese forces, who was dismissed
by the empress dowager when she
designated Gu Chun as heir apparent
10 the throne, has promulgated an
order to all vicerOys and governors not

June Is. This is interpreted TO mean

Especial to News and Observer
Oxford, n c., June 25-The annual cele-
bration at the orphan Asylum today was
a great success. The asylum grove was
filled with vehicles and the people could
not begin to get seats in the chapel or
even standing room.
The exercises were interDersed with
singing by the orphans, whose sweet
voices always thrill the listener with
delight.
DR.. e. T. White opened the occasion by
welcoming the Masons and visitors in a
short, but most appropr ate speech The
response on the part of the fraternity
was delivered by DR.. Clark, of Newbern.
In the interim, while the assembly
was waiting for the annual orator, the
Grand Master B. S. Register, called upon
Senator Jarvis. who made a most ex-
cellent, but brief address.
The address of Col. Waddell was most
ornate and beautiful.
The morning exercises were held in the
open air. but after dinner the annual
concert by the orphans was held in the
chapel. About one third of the crowd
managed to get standing room and they
were treated TO most enjoyable enter
tainment.
Everybody who attended left the
grounds with pride in their hearts that
we have such an institution in North
Carolina, the management of which can
not be surpassed anywhere.
AS Senator Jarvis said, North CAROLYN
ians need not fear for the education of
their unfortunate children while the great

ache and was not able to join in the pro-

than at Lexington. The sea of faces that
surrounded the stand was possibly not so
large but the lowest estimate of those

There were certainly as many more
