been here five weeks and cannot
imagine how the time has passed.
There seems to be something going
on for every moment. We have
many callers and have to make a
great many calls. We have been
invited TO a number of tiffens and
dinners that have taxed the ca
pacity of even ministerial capac-
ity. Tonight we are to have the
United States minister, Mr.. Conger
and wife, and some other notables
to dinner with US. My daughter
in-law serves beautiful dinner and
entertains in royal style. My son
has large. lovely home and most
delightful family. His children
are praised by every foreigner in
Peking. He is kept very busy
with his practice and lectures, so
shat we do not see as much OF him
as we could wish. Tomorrow we
leave for Tien,sin to visit our
daughter, with whom we only staid
four days as we came through that
city. About June 18th we will go
to Pei tai.ho, on the scashorc,
where both OF my children have
summer homes, and remain there
until we start for home about Aug
ust .,th. We all will be together
there for few weeks.
Everything in China is in the
most unsettled condition. The
Empress Dowager is at the head
OF the empire, the emperor having
been put aside on accoun, OF his
progressive views, and is now at
the summer palace some distance
from Peking. IL is said he will not
live to enter the city again. The
empress and her immediate coun-
sellors are intensely anti-for eign
1t seems that revolution is itnmi
nent in the near future. Last Fri
day a placard was posted on city
gate, saying, "Heaven was dis
pleased because OF the presence
foreigners, and that no rain would
fall until they were expelled" To-
day, thank heaven, we are having
a nice rain, which will do much
good to the crops, and lay the dust
here in Peking. Our little grand
son (sixteen months old who has
been so i'll, is now quite wellagain,
which lifts great shadow from
this home. Mrs. c. and myself
have been quite well all the time.
We have had splendid time, en-
joying every moment, but when we
heard of the deaths in La Iunta,
wished very much that we could
have been with our dear people in
their sorrow. Good news reaches
us OF Mr.. Todd's excellent work,
which is very pleasing. We hope
to greet you all early in September.
! hope to occupy the pulpit on
September 9th, with a sermon in
the morning and talk about my
trip in the evening, if that is de-
sired. Mrs. Coltman joins in love
to you both, and in hearty wishes
for pleasant vacation-as well as

From the Orient.

The following letter written by
DR.. Coltman, from China to Prof.
o. j. Blakesley, has been for
warded from Painted Post, N. Y,
to the TRIBUNE for publication.
Since the letter was written the
situation in China has reached a
critical period, and fears have been
entertained for the safety of DR..
and Mrs. Coltman by friends in
this city. Nothing has been heard
from Tientsin for over week, and
nothing is known as to the fate oi
the Americans resident there.
President Mckinley at the present
time is concerning himself solely
with measures to reach Americans
and provide them with protection,
and it is hoped his efforts will be
successful in time. The letter is
as follows:

SERIOUS EPIDEMIC FEARED.
Bolton Mill Neighborhood and Even This City
Exposed TO Scarlet Fever.

A most serious condition of affairs
regarding scarlet fever was discovered
at the Bolton Hill school, yesterday,
by DR.. Wellington Johnson, and it is
not improbable that the whole of the
scholars in the school will be taken
sick with the disease.
DR. Johnson was summoned to the
home Of J. l.. Robbins at Bolton hill,
three or four miles outside the city. to
attend the 15-year-old daughter. who
was quite sick. The daughter was in
this city, the day before. and was able
to walk about the city and was ap-
parently in her usual health. After
making a careful examination, he
found that the child was without any
question afflicted with the scarlet
fever.
At the same time he was called to
the home Of John Weber. short dis
lance away, and there found that two
Of the girls in that family were sick
with the disease 1t was in such a
light form. however, that one was able
to attend school. and even when her
face was pealng the very time when
there is the greatest danger of con-
tagion. the child was a regular at
tcndant at the school.
DR. Johnson at once notified the
people in the house Of the nature Of
the disease and advised that the house
be placed under quarantine This was
accordingly done the utmost care be
ing taken to prevent a further spread
ing Of the disease.
1t is feared. however that nothing
and unusual run in the neighborhood.
The school teacher boarded at one of
the houses where the children were
sick with the disease. but as she has
had the discas she VIII not in all prob
ability be taken sick. The school has
been Il sed and every other precau-
ton taken.
What causes the greatest wurrimcnt
in this city is the fear that the girl.
who was here Memorial day, may have
been the means of distributing the
germs among other people She was
perfectly well at that time and freely
circulated among the people in all
parts Of the city. 50 that il will be sur
priSing If more cases do not break out
in the city.
IL - tnOuSHi lHdl the disease was
caused by an old case in the neighbor-
hood. Some time ago. another Of the
members of the family Of Mr.. Weber
was taken sick with the disease. and
although the house was thoroughly
fumigated at that time it is feared that
some Of the clothing was not subjected
To the fumigating process and through
the clothing the disease was spread 70
other members OF the family.
AS soon as the board If health
learned Of the sickness everything pos
siblc was done to prevent the disease
spreading further and the greatest pre-
cautions taken.
