Tien Tsin, May 3O.-American,
British, japanese, German, Ital-

the viceroy here will not allow
them to proceed hence to Pekin

One hundred and eight Ameri

Three thousand Chinese troops

w. j. Whipper, the negro at

conducted the defense in a very
proper and considerate manner.
His cross examination of Mrs.
Doubleby, while it brought out
all the facts possible for his client,
was tactful and unobjectionable.
The defense put up no testimony.
Whipper, who is noted for his
eloquence, started his address to
the jury by stating that he would
as soon think of turning loose a
Bengal tiger or a Numidian lion
upon a community as man
guilty of the crime of which
Thomas stood accused. He rested
the defense on the fact that

Boer ENJOYS Speak.

Boston, May 3I.--.The Boer en-.
voys were given warm recep
ton at the State house this after
noon. They called on Governor
Crane and after paying their re-
spects to him were escorted to
the house. The guests addressed
the house briefly.
The envUys did not seem very
much depressed by the news from
johannesburg and Pretoria.
Chairman Fischer pointed out
"that the English forces have not
captured a singlh piece of artil-
lery or any considerable mum
tions Of war from us since our
men have been effecting their
mastery retreat. Our guns, sup
plies, ETC." he added, "have been
taken along with our troops. and
they will yet be used effectually,
if | am not greatly mistaken.
The fact that President Kru
ger has retreated to Waterfall
bowen and that this is declared
the capital of our government
shows that our people are still
determined to win their indepen-
dence. Our capital is where our
president chooses to make it.
"The fact tnat Lord Roberts
annexed the Orange Free State
the other day means nothing.
The United States could annex
Canada by proclamation but
something more effective would
have to follow to make it fact.
Mr.. Fischer added the state
ment that President Kruger
would not surrender while there
was bullock cart and 16 oxen
In the Transvaal to transport him
from place to place.
Mr.. Vessels said that if Presi
dent Kruger had been going to
surrender he would have remain
ed In the city. while the Beers
would not have carried away
their guns and ammunition ii
they had intended to capitulate.
Roberts, he said, may yet run
into a nice trap.

An Honest Dreamer.

The following extract from an
exchange fits our case SO nicely
that We reprint it, and hope that
some subscribers will make
personal application "of the NOR
al it ls designed to convey.
There was once a farmer, who
had 1900 bushels of wheat, which
he sold not to a single grain mer-
chant, but to 1,S00 different per-
sons, bushel to each. A few of
them paid him cash, but by far
the greater portion of them said
it was not convenient then, but
would pay later. A few months
passed and the mans bank &C
count ran low. "How's this" he
said, my 1900 bushels of wheat
should have kept me In atfluence
until another crop ls raised, but
| have parted with the grain and
have instead only vast number
Of accounts, so small and scatter
ed that | cannot get around and
collect them fast enough to pay
expenses" So he posted up a
public notice asking all those who
owed him to pay quickly, but few
came. The rest said, Mine is
only a small matter, and | will
go and pay 1t one of these days"
forgetting that though each &C
count was small, they meant a
large sum to the man. Things
went on thus. The man got to
feeling 80 badly that he fell out
Of bed and awoke, and running
TO his granary found the 1900
bushels of wheat still there. He
had only been dreaming; he had
not sold his wheat at all.
Moral: The next day the man
went to the publisher of his paper
and said: Here, sir, is the pay
for your paper, and when next
years subscription is due you can
depend on me to pay promptly.
| stood in the position Of an edi-
tor last night, and | know how it
feels to have ones honestly earn
ed money all over the country in
small amounts"

Situation i'm China Continues
Serious.

Tien Tsin, May 3O.-The rescue
party of Frenchmen and Germans
returned from Chang Hsin Tien
this afternoon. They confirm the
report that the besiegcd Belgians
are now safe at Pekin. They
found several thousand boxers
about the ruins of Iu. Kow-ChiaO
and Chang Hsin Tien stations.
The bridges have been damaged
and the rolling stock destroyed.
AT both places the damage done
is considerably greater than at
Fang Tai. The members of the
rescue party saw several bodies
of Chinese teaaing up the sleep
ers and in one case mandarin
was looking on. They further re
port that the missionaries and
others escaped from Pdo Ting Flu
in boats.
The imperial railway directory
is endeavOring to iasten the blame
for the damage at Fang Tai on
the foreign employees principally
the British, whom, they say
should not have left their posts
The foreigners, however, did not
leave until they saw In Kow
