STROUPTOWN.

(Too late for last we ek.)
David Kerstetter is very sick at this
writing.
The oats and potato crops are short
on account of drouth.
L. S. Gelnet, our merchant, is doing
hustling business and is getting in
his fall stock.
The sad news reached us that Thorn
as Graybill, of Richfield, dropped over

him.
Frederick Wochley Is putting up .
new house; it is we'll under roof. E. s.

burning brick for +. S. Stroup at
Swineford and is as jolly as ever.
The Clotfelter & Stroud Lumber Co.
is manufacturing lumber by the whole
sale. Water is scarce. They must haul
it about mile.
The boys say the cakewalk aud festi.
val at MeiservIlle Saturday evening
was we'll attended. A good chance fol
them to throw their harvest money
away which they earned by the sweat
of their brow. Such nuisances ought to
be abolished.
A change i'm mail route-No. 10, ,731,
Richfield to Oriental, is superseded by

Our Minister to settle the Question
OF His neIiycrnnCc.

Washington. July 31.--The effect OF
yesterdays news from China was to
freshen the hope that the government
can soon get in direct communication
with Minister Conger The mass Of
testimony as to his being alive as late
as the 22d inst. is now so great as to
warrant the department in resuming
the consideration OF projects for the
future. With all OF its anxiety to get
MIR COnger and the Americans in Pekin
safely away the department Is proceed
Ing with proper caution and is by no
means disposed to accept any PROPOSE
tion that would unduly jeopurdize their
lives. Such might be the result of an
OnhaHd acceptance OF the proposition
20 have the Chinese government deliver
the foreign ministers at Tien Tsn, for
Il Is realized that the escort might be
overpowered by superior forces Of
Boxers on the way to the sea. The
state department has come to the con-
ClusiOn that Mr.. Conger himself Is the
best person to judge OF the conditions
under which his deliverance shall be
effected, and, therefore. II is again
lUOhlHp u Tue tDlIleSt tDNflIlHlelll W
place it in communication with Mr..
Conger in order that it may be advised
by him. That requirement was the
first OF the conditions laid down by
President Mckinley in his answer to
the appeal OF the Chinese emperor, SO
that the situation automatically can
not be said to have been materially
changed.
The state department was inclined
to regard Consul Fowler's communica-
tion as the most valuable piece Of con-
firmatory evidence yet received touch
Ing the safety OF the Pekin diplomats.
According to this dispatch the minis
ters Except the German minister)
were safe July %, though some Of the
legationers had been killed. The Ger
man loss was 10 dead and ~ wounded.
Ten battalions Of Chinese shelled the
legation from June 20 to July IT,
Up to a late hour no answer had
been received to the second Conger
message. but in view OF Consul Fow-
ler's news the officials were inclined
to look forward to an early reply.
Gen. Chaffee reported yesterday his
arrival at Taku in advance Of the ex-
pected time.

perate battle, lasting for several hours,
in which he succeeded in killing Ser
geant Gabriel Porteus. Andy Van ku-
rom, keeper of the police Jail. and AL
fred J. Bloomfield. young boy, fatally
wounding Sergeant John F. Lally, John

! less seriously shooting several citizens.
the negro desperado, Robert Charles.
who killed Captain Day and Patrolman
Lamb and badly wounded Officer Mora.
was smoked out OF his hiding place In
the residence section Of the city and lit
orally shot to pieces.
The trouble was started Tuesday. The
police were informed that two suspi-
cious negroes were hanging around a
ouiet neighborhood. When the police
went to investigate the negroes show
ed fight, and Officer Mora was seri-
ously shot. One negro was arrested.
but Robert Charles, who did the shoot
ing, took refuge in a shanty. While
the police were btdI CuluS loi hAA Ct
night Charles killed Captain Day and
Officer Lamb and made his escape.
Since then he has been hunted for by
mobs, and many negroes have been at
tackled, the mobs becoming SO dis
orderly that the governor ordered out
troops. A complete list Of the casual
ties shows that six negroes and five
whites have been killed and ten ne
groes and twenty whites wounded
since the trouble began. His compan-
ion. Leonard Pierson, is safe in jail.
TugbOat Boiler Burst, Two Killed.
Baltimore, July 31.-The steam tug
Templar, owned in Alexandria, Va.
blew up in the harbor here last night
and killed jeremiah Moore, the en-
gineer, and c. e. Wood, fireman. The
balance Of the crew, including Capt.
Oliver Crowdsr, were more or less in
jured. but 1t is thought all will re-
cover. The Templar had in tow the
schooner Nellie P. Morse, and was just
rounding into port at Canton Hollow
when the boilers burst. and she liter
ally disappeared from the face Of the
water, leaving nothing but mass Of
splintered wood to show that she had
ever existed. The survivors were
picked up by the police tug Lannan.

now, and my friends r sending the
names Of their favorite poems from

teresting and curious to note the ones
that are most popular. I SHAH pub
