And never once had lied,
One day he fell i'll, sick at heart,
And laid him down and died,
And not mourner. shed tear,

Much happier his breath,
If he had lied in life instead

appalling. My old uncle saw him In

THE MARCH ON PEKN.
General Chaffee's Last Dispatch In
dicates Closeness to Capital.
The CASUALTIES AT YANGTsUN.
The American Troops-Fourtrenth
ty-twO Wounded.

Washington, Aug 14.-The Ameri-
can commander in China, in a dispatch
of three words. received at the war de-
partment late yesterday afternoon, ser
thrill of exultation and expectan
throughout official quarters by
nourcing his arrival at Ho 81 WI. :
SO - from Pekin, last Thu T.
-" uIspatch read: Arrived l.. Ru
yesterday"
II was deemed hardly likely that the
march to Pehin could have been made
since last Thursday At the rate OF
progress, SIX miles a day, made from
Yangtsun to Ho 81 WI, about "a miles
would have been covered in the last
four days. ard up to yesterday this
would still leave the International
forces nine miles from Pekin. Viewed
from any standpoint, the advance 10
FO ST Wu was of the utmost import
aHco. not only strategically, but also
In showing that communication from
Chinese hordes had not been sufficient
10 prevent the steady forward move
mort, and IN the influence it would ex-
ert upon the Chinese government.
klthOugh it is not stated what force
hoS arrived. the war department &C
cents it to mean that this Is the inter-
national force which first took Petit
sang and then Yangtsun. II has gone
steadily forward along the left bank OF
the Pei river. keeping on the main
road which skirts the river bank. At
Yangtsun the railway crosses the river,
and branches off to the west. Now the
forces have left the railway far In the
rear, and are depending upon the high
way and the river.
Ho 81 WI is a place OF considerable
size, and the largest town between Tien
Tsin and Ching CHA Wan. The latter
place and Tung Chow are the two cities
OF considerable size in the line OF ad-
vance after leaving Ho 81 WI. 1t is sur
rounded by orchards and gardens and
Is not a place likely to have afforded
opportunity for strong defence. II is
the highest point on the Pei river
where the river water Is depended on,
as the native wells are the source or
supply on the balance Of the route to
Pekin.
Shortly after this dispatch arrived,
another message from Gen Chaffee, far
more lengthy. gave the melancholy re-
suit of the fight at Yangtsun. The
casualty list was given In detail. with
the additional information that the
dead had been buried at Yangtsun and
that the wounded had been sent back
to the hospital at Tien Tsin.
The reply Of the United States gov-
ernment to China's overtures of peace
shows that firm and final position
has been taken A specific statement OF
what the United States expects as a
condition precedent to a cessation OF
hostilities, is that a body Of the relief
force be permitted to "entcr Pekin un-
molested" and escort the ministers
back to Tien Tsin. Exchanges between
the various powers have been going on
constantly, and as a result the officials
have the satisfaction Of knowing that
the position Of the United States had
the approval and support OF all the
great powers.

SWINDLERS.
Communicated.

|
There are some people who think
the only kind Of swindler is the
lightning rod swindler and that they
live far away. Why, bless your
toes, we have them here just as bad
and some Il little worse. The fol-
lowing will give the reader an idea
of some of their methods:
Mr.. A. works one day fora farm
er; the next day he goes to store
to see the shoes, etc; ne tells the
dealer they are the best and cheapest
he ever saw and as it is looking for
rain, he would take a pair along
and that he would pay for them the
next day as he had a lot of money
to get from the farmer for whom he
was working. The dealer gives him
the shoes; he is gone, and he never
came back. Three years later the
dealer asks him for the money, and
he politely says that as soon as hair
grows in the palm of his hand, he
could pull them out. They never
came out.
MIR. B. forgot his pocket book,
but will pay for what he gets, the
next day. but he never came back.
Mr.. c. comes around with a
forged order on some well-tO-do
farmer.
Now then who could blame the
business men for organizing, putting
the names of these swindlers on a
black list and exchange these lists
and positively refuse to sell to one
of them before they are square on
the books of all the other members
OF the organization? 1 am not
speaking of those, who try to pay
and cannot, but of those who could,
but will not. HONOR.
T The Posi- could add a few names
to the black list and probably will
lere long.-Editor POSI-
