her GOTH BIRTHDAY.
Waterbury Centre, July 17.--Mrs.
Mary 7. Osmer celebrated her goth
birthday at her home here yesterday.
Excepting her deafness, she retains
her faculties to a remarkable degree,
as was evinced by her taking a walk
of mile in the morning, which
walk included the crossing of the
trestle, IS5 feet long, of the electric
railway; entertaining friend from
her former home; taking Il Carriage
drive in the after noon, during which
time relatives and friends assembled
to greet her upon her return.
Among the assembled guests were
Mrs. Mary Hutchins, 81 years of
age; Mrs. Sarah Cheney, 81; Mr..
and Mrs. O. w. Davis, MIR. and
Mrs. J. O. Freeman, Rev. and Mrs.

SING IS NOT A BOXER.

The three Chinese in the local
laundry are not greatly excited over
the serious situation in their native
land. Nevertheless they take some
interest in home affairs. Leon Sing,
the proprietor, and his two assist
ants were born in southern China,
Leon Sing and Leon Bow coming
from Canton, and apparently have
no sympathy with the Boxers-the
"Boxce fellcr"-from the northern
provinces.
With the aid of a Chinese paper
printed in San Francisco Leon Sing
keeps track of the stirring events
around Pekin and elsewhere and en-
plains the situation to his English
speaking friends as well as his limit
ed command of the language allows
him. He is against the Boxers be-
cause they killed the emperor, aud
he wants to sec them killed off by
the foreigners now fighting them.
On the authority of Il "China"
paper Sing says that on June IS
Boxer, or several Boxers, went to
the emperor's house carrying poison
and Il knife and told the emperor
that he must die that day either by
the knife or by poison. The doomed
monarch took poison.
This is Laundryman Sings story.
He is II pretty good Chinaman, and
is not Il Boxer.
