Chinese Treachery Exposed.

New YORK, Aug. 2I.--The Herald s
Pekin dispatch of August II, via Shang
hal, August TO- says:
Contrary to the agreement of allied
commanders the Russians advanced and
occupied the first door of the east gate
early in the morning of the I4th, but fail
ed to force the second door. At 2 o'clock
on the afternoon of the I4th the British
and Americans entered the gate near the
legations and met with only slight resist
ance. The Japanese met more serious op-
position at the upper east gate all day.
At midnight on the I4th they blew up
the gate and entered the city Many
Chinese were killed. The people i'll the
legations were we'll but somewhat starved.
Minister Conger said: "They tried to
annihilate us the day before you got in.
Prince Ching, president of the tsung Ii
yamen, sent word that his officers had
received orders to cease firing
on us under pain of death. At !
O'Clock the evening of the same day the
Chinese opened fire and this continued
all night. If the relieving column hao
no, arrived when it did we should proba
bly, have succumbed. The American

Boxers are only pretense, having no

empress dowager was leader of the inn
perial troops here. In II days over 1000
shells fell among us"
The American marines under Captain
Myers held position on the wall
throughout the siege. Upon the allies
passing the wall the Chinese retreated.
The imperial family left four days ago
for Shan 81 province. 1t is estimated
that the strength of the Pekin garri-
son was 1000 men. The legation
was urged to leave the city under
all escort of Chinese troops, but they re-
fused, fearing treachery. The American
losses in action were greatest. Captain
Reilly was killed. In an interview Sir
Claude Macdonald, British minister
states "The Chinese broke every engage
ment with the foreign ministers. The
total casualties during the siege of the
legations were 81 killed and 12o
wounded"

prise the Dupont faction, or regular re-
publicans, decided to eight the devil

convention for the nomination Of state
candidates to be held here today. The
Addicks faction. in order to comply with
some OF the provisions of the election
law which were overlooked in the hurry
of their recent convention, are t. hold
second convention next Wednesday. 1t
is also given out that they will thent be
ready to consider any overtures that may
be made by the Dupont leaders looking
to reconciliation and the restoration Of

Now q Little Boy Was Saved.

Washington, d. C.-"When our

out with q rash which was thought to
be measles. In a few days he had a
swelling on the left side Of his neck
and it was decided to be humps. He
was given medical attendance for
about three weeks when the doctor
said 1t was scrofula and ordered a
salve. He wanted to lance the sore,
but 1 would not let him and continued
giving him medicine for about four
months when the bunch broke in two
places and became q running sore.
Three doctors said it was scrofHla and
each ordered a blood medicine. A
neighbor told me of q case somewhat
like our baby's which was cured by
Hoods Sarsaparilla. 1 decided to
give it to my boy and in a short while
his health improved and his neck
healed so nicely that I stopped giving
him the medicine. The sore broke
out again, however, whereupon I again
gave him Hoods Sarsaparilla and its
persistent use has accomplished COM

The Gladiator group is situated right

mining industry Of the Hills is yet in
its infancy but these gentlemen
thought it had tho appearance of u

look for growth was very fine as new
mines are being opened continually. A
number of mines have recently chang
ed hands, the prices running from 1926,
600 to sG5O,OOO. Statistics show that
mines in other localities where The in
dications were no better aud in many
cases not so good as they are in these
Hills mines, have increased in value in
an almost fabulous extent. For in
stance: The Treadwell mine sold for
S40O. in 1887 and is now worth $4,000,
600; the Mount Morgan brought 1915
twelve years ago and. recently $4,000,
600 were refused for it; the Comstock
Lode sold for 5000 and has produced
s600,O00,OO aud is still producing; the
Aspen Mine sold for s217 and has
produced 100000 so far; Alpha stock
rose from % cts per share to $3.50 in
one year; Belcher from sl.5O to sl,525;
Grown Point from $500 to sl,S25 and
has paid twelve millions in dividends;
Granite Mountain has paid 100000
in dividends and its stock rose from
10 cents to $1,000. Moffat has made
